Belle is a small bunny with a big, loud voice — and she uses it the wrong way. She demands instead of asks, and gets defensive instead of listening. But after an honest talk with Papa and a hard walk across the meadow to say sorry, Belle learns that the way we speak to people shows them how much we value them. When our words are kind and full of grace — with a please, a thank you, and a gentle tone — we show the people around us that they are loved. And that’s exactly what God calls us to do.
