Dogs are friendly animals. So let me tell you a folk tale story about a dog.
There was a dog, and his name was Red. All the other dogs laughed at him for his color. They were all brown. Red, the red dog, was very sad. The brown dogs didn't play with him. To tell you, this story is like what Martin Luther King did. What do you know about him?
So back to Red. He sighed and ran away. He talked to himself, "Why can't I be like them?"
A sudden loe voice said, "You are different because that's how you are special." Red looked up.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"I'm your future human, Red" Now Red could make out a man's voice. The man said, "Go tell those dogs that you are special just the way you are."
And Red did just that. The other dogs listened, then broke into howls.
"We'll let you play!" said one. "Yeah, we will" said another.
That's how dogs came to be different colors. And for Red, well he sure did get that future human. And a whole new family too.
The End
Moral: You are special no matter how big or small.
Aw, I bet this made Uncle John feel much better!
