One sunny morning, Golu met a parrot named Kesari. Kesari had the most beautiful feathers, a rainbow of colors! Golu sighed, "Oh, Kesari, your colors are so lovely. I wish I were as colorful as you."

Kesari smiled. "But Golu," she chirped, "your big ears are perfect for fanning in the heat, and your strong trunk helps you get the juiciest fruits! Everyone is beautiful in their own way." Golu thought about this.

Just then, a monkey named Rohan swung down from a tree. "Kesari is right, Golu!" Rohan chattered. "Your size helps you reach the highest leaves, and your gentle heart makes you a wonderful friend."

Golu looked at his big ears, his strong trunk, and remembered all the times he had helped his friends. He smiled. "I am special!" he exclaimed. From that day on, Golu loved himself just the way he was, inside and out.
