Once upon a time, a turtle named Splash had an irresistible curiosity.
This curiosity propelled her to become the first turtle in space.
While soaring through space, Splash’s attention was captivated by a planet below, sparkling with a magnificent golden hue.
Unable to resist, she convinced her loyal companion, Kernice, to explore this extraordinary world.
Maybe this would become their new home planet!
Upon landing, they were met with scorching heat, but undeterred, they pressed onward.
The planet revealed an endless expanse of sandy desert adorned with gravity-defying rocks, an alien landscape that enthralled their senses.
Despite the bright glare in their eyes, they stumbled upon a mesmerizing sight: tiny creatures sporting delicate wings resembling a fusion of butterflies and birds.
Yet, something seemed amiss — the creatures appeared frustrated, struggling to communicate with each other effectively.
Splash closely observed their actions and sounds, feeling an overwhelming urge to assist.
She discovered that their methods of communication involved wing flutters and chirps, but it proved insufficient.
An epiphany struck Splash — she could help! By mimicking the creatures’ wing movements with hand gestures and signs, a new form of communication began to take shape.
Splash was astounded by their extensive knowledge of surviving in the harsh desert environment as their understanding grew.
They possessed insight into locating water sources and shielding themselves from the relentless sun.
In conversation, they realized that this planet was no home for turtles.
So, Kernice and Splash bid farewell to their new friends as they ascended back into space to continue their search for a new home.
