Every day, Alex wanted to make music too, but he thought he couldn't because of his hard shell and small paws. 'I wish I could sing or play like the other animals,' said Alex.

One day, Alex decided to follow his dream. He went to see Oliver, the wise old owl.

'Oliver, how can I make music?' Alex asked. 'Everyone has a special talent, Alex. Keep believing in yourself,' Oliver replied.

After Oliver's words, Alex set out to find his own way to make music. 'I'll find my own music, no matter what!' Alex said.

In the deep forest, Alex found an old harp covered with vines. 'What is this? Maybe it can help me make music!' he wondered.

Curious and hopeful, Alex touched the strings. The harp made a beautiful sound! 'I did it! I made music!' Alex shouted with joy.
