Lin Xiaoyou, a third-grade boy, has a big secret - he scored 72 on the math test, and he secretly stuffed the paper into a locker in the corridor. He thought that as long as he hid it, failure would not exist.
Until one day, his locker started talking!
The voice mysteriously told him: I know a secret that will make you "never afraid," but you have to do three things for me first - find the three "old things" hidden under the big locust tree in the playground, in the storage room of the art classroom, and in the mezzanine of your schoolbag.
Xiaoyou bravely searched for them one by one, and dug out a dropped baton, a painting that was ridiculed as an "alien cat", and the 72-point paper. Every time I retrieve it, it's like reopening a scar.
But when he was waiting expectantly for the magical secret, the locker said something that stunned him...
This is a heart-warming story about "failure" and "bravery". It will tell every child who is afraid of failing a test, afraid of being laughed at, or afraid of making a fool of himself: True bravery is not about never falling, but about having the courage to look back after falling.
Purpose: True courage is not to never fail or never be afraid, but to have the courage to face one's own failures and imperfections, and to still choose to look back and start again even after being afraid.
