Once upon a time, next to a riverside, a little white beaver was born. His parents named him 'Alba', meaning white. Alba was very special, his parents saw that first thing. His favorite thing was to build.

Alba's parents were proud of him and his unique abilities. They loved watching him build intricate structures with sticks and mud. But they also worried about him, for he was different from other beavers.

When Alba got bigger, he reached school age and had to go to school. He was excited about it, eager to learn new things and make new friends. But he was the only white beaver in school.

The first day at school was challenging for Alba. The other beavers stared at him, their eyes wide with curiosity and confusion. He felt different, and it made him uncomfortable.

Despite the initial discomfort, Alba decided to embrace his uniqueness. He took part in all the activities, shared his ideas, and slowly, the other beavers started warming up to him.

One day, the school announced a building competition. This was Alba's chance to shine. He knew he could create something extraordinary.

Alba spent days planning his design. He wanted to build something that would make everyone see his talent. The day of the competition arrived, and Alba was ready.

With determination in his eyes, Alba began his work. He moved swiftly, placing each stick with precision. The other beavers watched in awe as his structure came to life.

Finally, Alba's masterpiece was complete. It was a spectacular lodge, intricately designed and expertly built. The crowd was silent for a moment, and then erupted into cheers.

Alba had won the competition! His peers, who once saw him as different, now admired him for his skills and creativity. Alba had shown everyone that being different is not a bad thing.

Alba returned home as a hero. His parents were overjoyed at his success. They knew their little white beaver was special, and now, everyone else knew it too.

From that day forward, Alba was not just the 'white beaver'. He was Alba, the builder, the winner, the extraordinary beaver who taught everyone the beauty of being different.
