Once upon a time, in a small village, there lived a boy named Matteo. He loved playing soccer and eating his Nonna's pasta.
One day, a new family moved to the village. They were from a faraway land and spoke a different language. Matteo was curious.
Matteo decided to approach the new boy, Ali, with a big smile. They played together even though they couldn't understand each other.
Matteo invited Ali to join his friends at the village school. They painted together and learned each other's languages.
As the days passed, Matteo's other friends saw how much fun Matteo and Ali were having, and they welcomed Ali with open arms.
The village celebrated their diversity, hosting a big party with music, food, and traditions from around the world.
Matteo realized that being inclusive and making new friends was important. He felt proud of himself and his village.
From that day on, Matteo, Ali, and all of their friends made sure everyone felt included and welcomed in their village.
