Fiona the Flamingo’s Funny Dance
Large text for little eyes.
Fiona the flamingo was known for two things: her bright pink feathers and her clumsy feet. While other flamingos stood tall and graceful on one leg, Fiona wobbled like a spinning top.
One day, she decided to turn her wobbling into a dance. She twirled, flapped her wings, and hopped on both feet. The flock stopped to stare.
“Is Fiona dancing… or falling over?” whispered one flamingo.
Fiona grinned. “Both!”
The Dance-Off
The next morning, Fiona strutted to the middle of the lagoon. “Watch this!” she announced. She shimmied her wings, tapped her toes, and spun so fast she splashed water everywhere.
The flock gasped. “That’s not normal flamingo dancing!”
Fiona shrugged. “Normal is boring. This is fun!”
Some flamingos giggled. Others tried to copy her silly moves, and soon the whole lagoon echoed with splashing, spinning, and giggling flamingos.
The Secret Message
But Fiona wasn’t just being silly. As she danced, she stretched her wings toward the horizon.
“Look!” she chirped between hops. “See those dark clouds?”
The flock squinted. A storm was rolling in! Fiona’s silly dance was actually her way of warning everyone.
The leader flapped his wings. “Quick! Follow Fiona’s moves, we need to fly to higher ground!”
Dance Saves the Day
The flamingos all copied Fiona’s funny dance, flapping, hopping, and leaping into the air. Together, they soared to safety just before the storm flooded the lagoon.
The leader beamed. “Fiona, your funny dance wasn’t silly—it was brilliant!”
Fiona blushed pinker than ever. “Well,” she said with a twirl, “sometimes the best way to be heard… is to dance!”
From then on, whenever danger approached, the flock didn’t just squawk or flap. They danced—thanks to Fiona, the flamingo, who proved that laughter and wobbles could save the day.
The End !
