Synopsis
Each winter, the animals of Moonlight Pond gather for a grand talent show. Ducks dance, mice perform, but Toad always hides, believing he lacks any special skill. One day, Toad is discovered and, in his nervousness, slips onto the icy pond. To everyone's amazement, he glides gracefully, revealing a hidden talent for ice-skating. This delightful tale reminds readers that sometimes, our true abilities emerge when we least expect them.
