One day, a little boy named Tim went for a walk. He saw a tree with a big, ugly pear. Tim wanted to eat the pear, but it was too high for him to reach. He looked around and saw a tall man. Tim asked, "Can you help me get the pear, please?"
The tall man smiled and said, "Sure, little boy!" He reached up and picked the ugly pear from the tree. Tim was so happy! He thanked the man and took a big bite of the pear. It was the best pear he had ever tasted.
As Tim ate the pear, a girl named Sally walked by. She saw the ugly pear and asked, "What happened to that pear? It looks so ugly!" Tim smiled and said, "It may be ugly, but it tastes so good!" Sally laughed and they became friends. They played together and shared the pear, happy that something good could happen from an ugly pear.
