Once upon a time, there was a dull clock. It was not bright or shiny. The clock lived on a wall in a big room. Every day, it went tick-tock, tick-tock. The clock liked to tell time for everyone.
One day, a girl named Sue came into the room. Sue was sad. She did not want to play. The clock cared about Sue. It wanted to help her feel better.
The clock thought of a way to help. It started to tick-tock louder and faster. Sue looked up and saw the clock. She began to dance to the tick-tock sounds. Sue was happy again. The clock was glad it could care for Sue and make her smile.
