Tippy Toes was not like the rest of the turtles. He was different, and all the other little turtles of Turtle Town would tell him just how different he really was. But one day, a great adventure took them away from home. Tippy Toes was afraid! Then he remembered what his mother would always tell him, "You're not different. You are special! Someday they'll know." Then he knew EXACTLY what to do

Patty had a special pair of shoes. They weren't the prettiest shoes, but they were her very favorite. They were old and worn and very scratched up. The other kids in their shiny new shoes would tease herand call them ugly. Sometimes it would hurt Patty's feelings. Then she would remember they had a special meaning, and soon they would all know why.
