Turner Turtle Takes a Tumble

Turner Turtle takes a tumble in the middle of nowhere.

In the forest of Mellow lived a clumsy turtle whose shell was bright yellow.

Turner Turtle was kind as can be, always helping his friends whenever in need.

While Turner Turtle was known for being the kindest, most helpful friend to all the creatures of the forest, he quickly learns the hard truth that just because he was always kind and helpful to his friends, does not mean they will do the same for him in return.

When Turner Turtle rushes down the slick creek bank to save his ant friend's food, his feet begin to fumble.

Then poor Turner Turtle took a big tumble! Stuck on his back in the creek and the rain, Turner pleads with the ants to help him get unstuck.

To Turner's disbelief, his ant friends refused to help him, despite him being stuck from trying to help them.

When more of Turner's friends discover him in the creek, and they too refuse to help him, he begins to lose faith that he will ever be saved.

Will a kind soul show up to help Turner get free? Turner's tumble may just be the reminder he needed that there are indeed kind souls in the world, who understand that we should always give a helping hand!

The act of kindness is doing for others without expecting anything in return!
