Once upon a time, in a valley full of rainbow flowers and singing birds, there was a very special little stone named Sammy. Sammy was not like the round stones; he was shaped like a shiny star with five amazing points.
Sammy loved his star shape, but it made it hard for him to roll down the hills with his friends. When the other stones played rolling races, poor Sammy could only tumble and often got stuck in the soft green grass.
One sunny day, Sammy sat on top of the hill watching his friends roll down laughing and cheering. He felt sad, wishing he could join them. His friend Lily, a smooth pebble with a gentle smile, rolled up to Sammy and asked him what was wrong.
Sammy explained how his star shape stopped him from rolling. 'I wish I could be round like you,' he sighed. But Lily giggled and said, 'But then you wouldn't be our Sammy! Your shape makes you special. Let's find a game we can all play!'
Inspired by Lily's words, Sammy and his friends decided to think of a new game. After thinking a bit, they invented 'Starball.' It was a game where they all needed to bounce instead of roll, and Sammy's points were perfect for bouncing high!
The game was a hit! All the stones, no matter their shape, could play and have fun. Sammy realized that his difference was not a bad thing but something that brought a new joy to his friends. They all laughed and played until the sun painted the sky orange and pink.
As the stars twinkled above, Sammy felt proud of his unique shape. He understood that every stone was special in their own way, and together, they made the valley a wonderful place. Sammy fell asleep dreaming of the next day's fun with a happy smile.
