Once upon a time there was a beetle who loved to tell everyone how fast he could run. “I am the fastest insect in the park,” he would say. His slow and steady friend the snail, tired of hearing him brag, challenged him to a race. “Ha,” the beetle thought to himself, “there is no way a snail could ever win against me.” On the day of the race, all of the insects in the park gathered to watch. The centipede waved a checkered flag to start the race. The beetle zoomed past the starting line as fast as he could, while the snail carefully inched herself forward bit by bit. The beetle cried out “You will never win this race at that slow, slow pace.” Out of breath from running, the beetle eventually reached a small pond of water. He thought, “I have plenty of time. I just will go around the pond.” The beetle sped off on his way. Inch by inch the snail crawled along the path. As she reached the pond, she thought, “It would be much shorter if I could somehow float across the water.” Perhaps I could build a boat. The snail gathered up some leaves, twigs and vine. She fashioned a small boat that helped her glide smoothly across the water of the pond. When she got to the other side, she hopped off the boat and could see all of her friends waiting for her at the finish line. Little by little the snail crept along the path until she crossed the finish line at long last. All of her friends cheered. “Hooray for snail!” they cried. A moment later the beetle came running across the finish line. “I can’t believe you beat me!” he said. “You know,” the snail replied with a smile, “being the fastest isn’t always everything”. “Sometimes if you just slow down for a moment and think about your challenge, you can come up with great solutions.”

Ballenita goes to a trip to the beach

Однажды, когда Эмилина проснулась, ее комната выглядела совсем необычно. Игрушки не кладутся на диваны, а будто двигались сами по себе! — «Что происходит?» —прошептала она, протирая глаза. Медвежонок поднял лапку и сказал: — «Доброе утро, Эмилина! Сегодня особенный день — день оживших игрушек!» Эмилина удивилась, но ей стало очень интересно. Она подошла к своим книжкам, и вдруг страницы сами раскрылись. Буквы начали светиться, а картинки шевелиться, как в мультике! — «Теперь ты можешь входить в любую историю!» — начала говорить самая большая книга. Эмилина осторожно прикоснулась к странице — и в мгновение ока очутилась внутри сказочного леса! Она гуляла по волшебным тропинкам, играла с добрыми феями, прыгала по пушистым облакам... Но вдруг раздался звонок. Это будильник! Эмилина открыла глаза и увидела, что лежит в ее кроватке. Все было на своих местах. — «Какой чудесный сон!» — подумала она. Но когда взглянула на книжку рядом с подушкой, то заметила... маленький блестящий след от волшебной пыли. — «А может, это было на самом деле?» — улыбнулась Эмилина и с радостью открыла книжку, чтобы снова направить в приключение!
