Sophie wanted to surprise her friend Tibbs with a big, yummy birthday cake. She worked hard mixing, stirring, and frosting. But when she carried the cake to the table—oops! The cake leaned to one side, and frosting slid down the edge.
Sophie’s ears drooped. “Oh no… it looks all wobbly. Maybe Tibbs won’t like it.” But then she wagged her tail and smiled. “I’ll try again!”
She baked a second cake, and this time it stood tall and proud, with sprinkles on top. Tibbs loved it—wobbly cake and all—because it showed how much Sophie cared. Sophie learned that even mistakes can be sweet, as long as you keep trying.
