    Once upon a time, in a small town named Sunshineville, lived a sweet little boy named Timmy. Timmy was a kind-hearted, shy boy who loved to draw and play with his dog, Spot.

    Timmy went to Sunshine Elementary school. Despite his love for school, he had difficulty making friends because he was quiet and introverted. Some kids at school started bullying him, making him feel very sad.

    One day, Timmy came home from school looking unusually downcast. His mother, Mrs. Jackson, could tell that something was wrong. She gently asked Timmy about his day at school.

    The bullies were taken aback. No one had ever stood up to them before. They did not know how to react and simply walked away, leaving Timmy alone.
