Hello, little listeners and brave explorers! šŸŒŸ Today, we're off on another exciting adventure from The Wizard of Oz! Dorothy, Toto, and their friends meet a new, unexpected companion on their journey to the Emerald City. And guess what?

A Roaring Encounter šŸ¦šŸŒ²

As Dorothy, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Woodman make their way through a dark, spooky forest, they hear a terrible roar! šŸ˜± Suddenly, a huge Lion leaps out, knocking down the Scarecrow and scratching at the Tin Woodman. But Dorothy bravely stands up to the Lion, protecting little Toto from harm! šŸ¶šŸ’Ŗ She discovers that this fearsome Lion is actually... a big coward! šŸ˜²šŸ˜¢


The Cowardly Lion admits that heā€™s scared of everything, even though heā€™s supposed to be the King of Beasts! šŸ¦šŸ‘‘ He feels ashamed of his fear, but Dorothy and her friends don't judge him. Instead, they invite him to join their journey to the Great Oz, hoping he might find the courage heā€™s been looking for. šŸ’›āœØ


Learning to Be Kind, No Matter What šŸ¤–šŸŖ“

On their walk, the Tin Woodman accidentally steps on a little beetle and feels so sorry that he sheds tears, which rust his jaw shut! šŸ˜¢ Dorothy and the Scarecrow help him out by using the oil can, showing the importance of looking out for othersā€”even the tiniest creatures! šŸžšŸ’§ From then on, the Tin Woodman watches his step carefully, making sure not to hurt even an ant! šŸœ


What We Can Learn From Our Friends šŸŒŸ

  • Bravery Isn't About Size: The Lion may be big, but he feels scared inside. We all have things that make us nervous, but itā€™s important to try our best! šŸŒ²šŸ¦

  • Kindness Matters: The Tin Woodman shows us that even without a heart, you can be thoughtful and kind to all creatures. šŸŖ“ā¤ļø
