Luna, a small girl with big, curious eyes and a purple dress, was feeling nervous. It was her first day of school and she didn't know anyone. She clutched her bag tightly and walked into the classroom.

In the corner, Luna noticed a girl with a bright smile and friendly eyes. Her name was Liz. Luna felt a little less scared seeing Liz's welcoming gaze.

Liz noticed the new girl and decided to say hello. She walked over to Luna, her smile as bright as the morning sun. "Hi, I'm Liz. What's your name?" She asked.

Luna shyly responded, "I'm Luna." Liz's friendly demeanor made Luna feel a bit more at ease. They soon started talking about their favorite games and cartoon characters.

Liz then took Luna's hand and led her around the classroom, introducing her to the other kids. Luna's heart pounded with nervousness, but Liz’s reassuring hand made her feel safe.

One by one, Luna met her classmates. She felt a sense of relief as she realized that they were all just as nervous and excited as she was.

Over time, Luna began to feel more comfortable. She started participating in class activities and even made a few jokes, making her classmates laugh.

Luna and Liz became inseparable. They shared lunch, played together during recess, and even worked on homework together. Luna was grateful for Liz's friendship.

One day, Luna decided to show her appreciation for Liz. She drew a picture of them together, both wearing their favorite colored dresses and holding hands.

When Luna gave Liz the drawing, her eyes lit up. "This is beautiful Luna, thank you!" Liz said, hugging Luna tightly. Luna felt her heart swell with happiness.

As days turned into weeks, Luna found herself loving school. She looked forward to each day, eager to learn new things and play with her friends.

One day, a new student joined the class. Luna saw the familiar fear in the new girl's eyes. She felt an urge to help, remembering her own first day.

Luna walked over to the new girl, with Liz by her side. She extended her hand, offering a warm smile. "Hi, I'm Luna and this is my friend Liz. Welcome!"

The new girl looked relieved and smiled back. Luna felt a sense of accomplishment. She had not only conquered her own fear but helped someone else with theirs.

Luna realized that it was okay to be scared, but it was also important to overcome that fear and reach out to others. She had learned a valuable lesson.

Luna's first year of school was filled with fun, learning, and friendship. She was no longer the scared little girl in the purple dress. She was Luna, a confident and caring friend.

As the school year ended, Luna felt a pang of sadness. She would miss seeing her friends every day. But she also felt excited about the summer break.

Luna promised Liz and her other friends that they would meet during the holidays. She felt grateful for the memories she had made and the friendships she had formed.

Luna walked out of school on the last day, her purple dress swaying in the wind. She felt a sense of accomplishment and excitement for the future.

Luna had learned that the world was full of new experiences and people to meet. She was ready for whatever the next school year would bring.

Luna, with her purple dress and brave heart, had turned her fears into friendships. She realized that change was not always scary, but often, an opportunity for growth.

She looked forward to a summer of fun and a new school year full of opportunities. With her friends by her side, Luna knew she could face anything.

Luna’s story is a testament to the power of friendship and courage. It’s a reminder that sometimes, all it takes is a kind word and a welcoming smile to turn a scary situation into a wonderful adventure.

Luna had grown from a timid girl to a confident friend. And as she waved goodbye to her friends, Luna knew she was ready for whatever adventures awaited her in the next school year.

And so, Luna’s first year at school ended on a high note. Her purple dress was no longer just a dress, it was a symbol of her journey, her growth, and her newfound courage.
