"Little Crab"

"The sky is falling!" said the little red crab. But it wasn't falling; it was just a sprinkle of rain. The birds knew that. But if you'd lived your whole life under the ocean and been told tales of the sky and life above the ocean… well then, you would say that the sky is falling if it was raining. And it's okay. It's just a little water"
