Sammy the starfish loved exploring the ocean, but walking on five little arms took a long time. One sunny morning, Sammy spotted a friendly shark named Shelly swimming by.
“Hello, Sammy! Where are you off to today?” asked Shelly.
“I want to see the coral reef, but it’s so far away,” sighed Sammy.
Shelly smiled. “Hop on my back—I’ll give you a ride!”
So Sammy held on tight as Shelly swam gracefully through the waves. Together they zipped past seahorses, waved at dolphins, and glided through swirls of colorful fish. At last, they reached the coral reef—bright and full of life.
Sammy laughed with joy. “Thanks, Shelly! With a friend like you, every journey is an adventure.”
