I am stuck
Book - 2023
"It stinks to be stuck. Turtle is stuck on their back, unable to flip over. "Try wiggling your feet," advises Duck--nope. Still stuck. "Try wagging your tail," Kangaroo suggests--nope again. Armadillo says that rolling in a ball might work--Turtle tries...but rolls ALL the way over and is stuck again. Possum wonders if Turtle is playing possum, but Turtle says no. "It doesn't hurt. But I feel scared, frustrated, and alone." Possum flops over with Turtle. They smell honeysuckle. They hear a bird singing. They watch clouds together. Turtle feels a bit better, but then it rains. Now, Turtle is cold and wet..."but I don't feel stuck." Possum says, "I feel like my butt fell asleep."...; And the duo giggle so hard, they both flip over. They discover being stuck is not so bad when you're together." --
