In the heart of the forest lived a little squirrel named Sammy. Sammy was known for his fluffy tail and his love for nuts.

Sammy's best friend was Billy, a big bear who loved honey and naps. Billy and Sammy spent a lot of time together, playing and exploring the forest.

One sunny day, Sammy and Billy found a beautiful, shiny stone near the stream. They were both amazed by its sparkling beauty.

They decided to keep it safe and share it. But Sammy was so fascinated by the stone that he secretly decided to keep it for himself.

That night, Sammy couldn't sleep. He felt guilty for not being honest with Billy. He knew he had to tell Billy the truth.

The next morning, Sammy went to Billy and confessed. He told Billy that he had kept the shiny stone for himself.

Billy listened to Sammy's confession quietly. He was surprised but appreciated Sammy's honesty.

Billy forgave Sammy and told him it was okay. He was happy that Sammy chose to be honest instead of keeping a secret.

From that day on, Sammy and Billy became even closer friends. They learned the importance of honesty and promised to always be truthful with each other.

And so, in their beautiful forest home, Sammy and Billy continued their adventures, always remembering the lesson of the shiny stone.
