One day as she was buzzing about she
noticed a group of passing butterflies. Theyre
gorgeous! she thought to herself. Look at thosebeautiful wings, with so many different colors. I
wish I were as beautiful as they are.Velvet looked at her wings andthought they didnt look nearly as
pretty. Who would want to be a
bee anyway? she muttered to
herself.
Certo dia, ela voava zumbindo
por a quando reparou num grupo
de borboletas. Que lindas! Pensouconsigo mesma. Olha s aquelaslindas asas, de tantas cores
diferentes. Quem me dera ser tolinda como elas!
Veludinha olhou para as suas asas e no
as achou nem de longe to bonitas. Quem ia
querer ser uma abelha? murmurou consigo
mesma.

Her friend, Leon, noticed that she was
looking glum. Why are you sad, Velvet?
Leon asked.
Its nothing, she
replied, and then
buzzed off.
For the rest of the
morning, Velvet had
a pout on her face.
All the other bees
wondered what was
the matter with her
when it was such a
lovely morning, and
they had found
excellent flowers for
collecting nectar.
Leon tried to cheer
her up, but Velvet
told him that shed rather be left alone.
Seu amigo Leon reparou que ela parecia
cabisbaixa. Por que voc est triste,
Veludinha?
perguntou Leon.
Nada,
no , respondeu
ela e saiu zunindo.
Durante o resto
daquela manh,
Veludinha estava
carrancuda. Todas
as outras abelhas
se perguntavam
qual era o
problema com ela
numa manh tolinda, e elas tinham
encontrado timas
flores de onde
coletar o nctar. Leon tentou anim-la, mas
Veludinha lhe disse que queria ficar s.

At midday they heard the sound of
children laughing. Some of the bees went to
the entrance of the beehive to see what was
happening. A family had come to have a
picnic under the
tall tree. Themother was
spreading out the
blanket, the
father was
unloading the
picnic basketfrom the car, and
the kids were
playing nearby.
Velvet decided
to have a closer
look, so she flewdown from the
hive, and sat on a
branch. She watched the children play, and
when the family sat under the tree to have
their picnic, she flew closer to have a better
look.
Ao meio-dia ouviram o som de crianas
rindo. Algumas das abelhas foram entrada da
colmia ver o que acontecia. Uma famlia
viera fazer um piquenique debaixo da rvore
grande. A me
colocava umpano no cho, o
pai tirava a cesta
do carro e as
crianas
brincavam ali
perto.Veludinha
decidiu observar
mais de perto,
ento saiu
voando da
colmia e sesentou num
galho. L
observou as crianas brincarem, e quando a
famlia feliz se sentou debaixo da sombra da
rvore para o piquenique, ela voou ainda
mais para perto.

Just then the little boy saw Velvet. Look, everyone, theres a bee! he said pointing at
Velvet. I wonder if theres a bee hive nearby.
Its up in the tree, over there, said the father.
I think bees look like little fairies in a striped costume, the little girl said.
Did you know that the honey on your sandwich comes from bees? the father asked.
Uh-huh! said the little boy. And bees can even make honey taste different,
if they get the nectar from different flowers.
Thats right, said the father. God made each creature
special and unique in its own way.
Naquele momento o garotinho viu Veludinha. Olhem,pessoal! Uma abelha! disse ele apontando para Veludinha. Ser que tem uma colmia aqui perto?
Est l naquela rvore, disse o pai. Acho as abelhas parecidas com pequenas fadas
vestidas de listras, disse a garotinha.
Sabiam que o mel de nossos sanduches vem dasabelhas? perguntou o pai.
Sim! disse o garotinho. E as abelhas sabemat dar sabores diferentes ao mel, se tirarem nctarde diferentes flores.
Isso mesmo, disse o pai. Deus fez
cada criatura de modo especial e nico.

I wish I could make honey, the little girl said.
Well, God gave that job to the bees, explained the
father. He made you just as you are, special in your
own way too, with your gifts and talents.
Velvet thought on what the father had said. I guess
that means God loves me just the way I am, she said to
herself. And Im special to Him. Im sorry, God, for not
being thankful for how You made me. Thank You for all
the things I can do, and that I can be helpful, and make
others happy too.
Quem me dera pudssemos produzir mel, disse a garotas.
que este trabalho Deus deu s abelhas explicou o pai. Ele criou cada um como somos, cadaum especial sua prpria maneira, com seus dons etalentos.
Veludinha pensou no que o pai tinha dito: Acho
que isso significa que Deus me ama da maneira quesou, disse ela consigo mesma. E sou especial pra Ele.
Sinto muito, Deus, por no estar agradecida pelamaneira como Voc me fez. Obrigada por todas ascoisas que posso fazer, como posso ser til e tambm
fazer os outros felizes.

Moral: Though each person is different,
God has made each one of us special in
