The Silent Jingle

Once there was an unordinary elf called Jingles. There were a billion ordinary elves because they all had their jingly bells. However, Jingles was unordinary because he had no bells to jingle with. Everyone thought he was special, but he didn’t think so.

An unordinary elf named Jingles standing out from the crowd of ordinary elves with jingly bells.

One day, the mischievous Grinch came into Happy town to steal all the presents while the elves were sleeping. Jingles couldn’t sleep that night and he heard the Grinch. He was so quiet without a bell that he caught the Grinch by surprise. Everyone praised Jingles for being so quiet.

Jingles realised he doesn’t need a bell. “I like being unique!” he said proudly!

So, the moral of this story is: “Be proud of who you are!”
