Who Says I Don't Fit in?

Layla was excited and nervous about her first day at a new school. She wondered if she would make new friends. As she walked into the classroom, everyone turned to look at her. Layla took a deep breath and smiled. She knew she just had to be herself.

During recess, Layla saw a group of kids playing tag. She wanted to join but felt shy. A girl named Mia noticed Layla and invited her to play. Layla's heart filled with joy as she joined the game. She realized making friends wasn't as hard as she thought.

One day, Layla's teacher announced a talent show. Layla loved to sing but was afraid to perform in front of others. Mia encouraged her to sign up. Layla practiced every day and finally felt ready. When she sang on stage, everyone clapped and cheered.

Layla realized she didn't need to change who she was to fit in. She had friends who liked her for being herself. The talent show taught her that everyone has something special to offer. Layla felt happy and confident in her new school. She knew she belonged.
