Once upon a time there was a mouse. His color was white, but he was not content with that. The mouse wanted to be different from all other mice.

So he decided that he should change his color, and so saying...
he painted himself purple!

But when the paint dried up, he didn’t like it. So the purple mouse washed himself till he was his normal white self again.

Then he decided to try something different, and he started munching on four big, red apples. And, do you know what happened?
He turned red!

But he wanted to be colorful, so he began gobbling strawberries
carrots and oranges
yellow peppers
pears and melons
blueberries
blackberries
and grapes
He was eating them by ones, twos, threes, fours, and fives, until his color turned RAINBOW!

But then something happened‌ His friends did not like him anymore! And now all he wanted was to be his normal self, until he had an idea...
11
He sent packages of fruits to his friends. And when his friends saw the fruits at the door they started gobbling and munching them down. And soon...
everyone in the mouse tribe was colorful.

And with that, nobody ever complained having a different color, and they all remained friends. The moral: It’s okay to be different from one another. The End
