Once upon a time, there was a girl named Lily. She had a dress that was not pretty. It was ugly. Lily did not like the dress. Her mom said the dress would remind her of something important one day.
One day, Lily and her mom went to a big party. There were many kids there. Lily wore her ugly dress. She felt sad. Her mom smiled and said, "Wait and see. The dress will remind you of something."
At the party, there was a game. The kids had to find things that were the same color as their clothes. Lily looked at her ugly dress. It was the same color as a big, fun toy! Lily found the toy and won the game.
Lily was so happy. She now knew what her mom meant. The ugly dress reminded her that it is not how you look, but what you do that makes you special. Lily loved her dress now. And she had a great day at the party.
