Brave Duckling Saves Puppy From a Crocodile
A puppy is in trouble near the water when a crocodile appears. His friend, a little duckling, sees what's happening and goes to help, even though it's scary. This is how their friendship starts: with one small duckling being brave for someone else.
What kids can learn
Being brave doesn't mean you aren't scared. It means you do the right thing anyway. The duckling is tiny next to a crocodile, but it still finds a way to help.
This is a cartoon, so it's also worth separating story from real life. In real life, kids should never go near a wild animal to help someone. The brave move for a kid is to get away from the danger and tell a grown-up right away, and to stay back from the edge of rivers, lakes and ponds unless an adult is right there.
Talk about it: How did the duckling show it was brave? What should you do in real life if a friend is in danger?
