 II. Reflection
1. My favorite quotes
-“We've learnt to appreciate and respect and love
someone who's different from us. It is very easy
to accept and love those who are like us, but to
love someone different is very hard, and you
helped us to do that.”
-“Only those who dare may fly”

14
 What can I
learn from
this story

- Love and appreciate others.

- Keep our words.
- Unite and co-operate.
- Be brave.
- Protect the environment.
