Our story begins with a llama,a very,very deaf llama! This llama was so deaf because he had no ears!You might be wondering why llama had no ears, it's because when he was little he listened to really, really loud music and through the years they grew smaller and smaller until they disappeared.Llama used to be really popular but now not so much.All the animals thought llama was ignoring them so llama had no friends.Whenever the animals talked to him, all he could see were several mouths moving up and down.He couldn't hear the rain or the birds chirping or cars going by,it was a silent life for llama.

Llama didn't go out much because he didn't want anyone to see he had no ears. When he did go out he wore a big fluffy hat to hide his head. One sunny day llama decided to go to the beach.Llama didn't need to disguise himself at the beach as no one was ever there.He walked and walked until his feet was sore.On the way llama realized he was being followed but who?Llama was out of breath from walking all those miles but it was definitely worth it.He loved the wind in his hair and the sand in his toes but most of all no one judged him there as no one ever visited the beach! Llama sat down on the hot sand and closed his eyes. He imagined what it would be like with big ears like elephants and the Fennec foxes.Llama sighed, he knew he would never get big ears.

The sea crashed and swayed but llama couldn't hear it. The seagulls chirped but llama couldn't hear it.The sea breeze whistled but llama couldn't hear it. The crabs scurried in the rock pools but llama couldn't hear it. Llama just couldn't hear it.

Llama tried to think about something else other than his ears. Yes, there was something! Who was following him on the way to the beach. Obviously llama couldn't hear the creature scuttling across the path but llama just knew someone was there following his every move. Llama sat up and looked around the beach. No one to the left, no one to the right, no one in front of him but what about behind him…He slowly turned his neck.Llamas heart was in his mouth. Who was there and was there anyone there? Llama breathed deeply and tried to calm down but inside llama was truly scared.He turned round and there was… well nothing, nothing at all. Just sand pure hot sand. Llama tutted. Silly llama!

All of a sudden a tiny hand pressed on his shoulder. Llama nearly jumped out of his skin (literally). He turned around to find a tiny fluff ball! Well a hamster in other words.The tiny rodent was super cute but the hamster was more than adorable,he had magic powers (and he was adorable as well)

“Good afternoon, mr llama”said the hamster. 

Llama sat there in shock,his mouth was wide open. He gulped,took a deep breath and got his words together.

“H..ow c..ome i..ii c..an h..hhear y..ou” Stuerttd the llama. 

The hamster smiled a great big smile. He handed the llama a shiny mirror.

From that day forward,llama gained popularity.(He still kept in touch with the hamster)Llama started feeling good about himself. He no longer needed his fluffy hat because he wanted to show off his big ears. Now llamas are incredibly proud of their big ears and it was all because of a kind,tiny hamster! Let's all try and be like tiny hamsters sometimes because kindness is key!
