a painting of a squirrel eating an acorn

Once upon a time, in a magical forest, there lived a little squirrel named Nutty. Nutty loved to collect acorns, but not for himself—he liked sharing them with all his forest friends.One day, Nutty found the biggest, shiniest acorn he had ever seen. He was so excited that he wanted to show it to everyone. As he carried it through the forest, he met a hungry rabbit, a tired owl, and a busy chipmunk. Each of them looked like they needed some cheering up.Without a second thought, Nutty broke the big acorn into three pieces and gave one to each friend. Their faces lit up with joy, and they thanked Nutty for his kindness.That night, as Nutty returned to his tree, he felt happier than ever. He realized that the joy of sharing was much sweeter than any acorn he could ever find. And from that day on, Nutty became known as the kindest squirrel in the forest, always ready to share and make his friends smile.
