You Are Special

Hey guys

A couple years ago I received a book called ”Your Are Special” and I have read this book countless times.

This is one of the most inspirational books I have ever read and it teaches you a lot about life and how powerful our thoughts are. This book is about a village of wooden people called Wemmicks. Each Wemmick gets 2 boxes of stickers, one box has golden stars and the other has grey dots. Everyday the Wemmicks go around giving each other stickers, the ones that were pretty and had nice smooth wood got golden stars and the ones that had rough wood and were not that good looking got grey dots.

There was one Wemmick named Punchinello and he wasn’t very perfect, he didn’t look as nice as all the other Wemmicks and he had rough wood. While all the others had golden stars all around them, Punchinello had grey dots. This made him feel very bad about himself because nobody wanted to be friends with him and they all made fun of him.

One day, Punchinello went to meet the man who created all of the Wemmicks, he went to go ask him why he isn’t as perfect as all the others. He said that just because Punchinello did not look like as pretty as the others do, he is still important and special and worth having golden stars on him, he just had to believe in himself. After spending hours with the man, Punchinello walked out of his house as a completely different Wemmick, he still looked the same but he had so much more confidence, this newfound confidence was so powerful that one of his grey dots dropped off.

When Punchinello went back to the village, all the other Wemmicks started to see his newfound confidence and started to give him golden stars and they started talking to him.

Just because we may be different from each other does not mean we are not special, we are all special in our own way
