[Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) was a sweet and shy 4-year-old girl. She loved to sing and dance in her living room, where she felt safe and comfortable. But [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) didn’t like trying new things, and when nighttime came, she didn’t want to sleep in her own room. 'What if it's too dark?' she whispered to her mum every night.

One sunny morning, [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N)’s mum knelt beside her with a smile. '[Gracie](KT2YWQ6N), let’s meet [Flyby](JXB2TGZF) the Butterfly today. He’s very special!' [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) frowned. She didn’t know [Flyby](JXB2TGZF), and she didn’t like meeting new friends. But her mum held out her hand, and [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) followed nervously.

[Flyby](JXB2TGZF) was no ordinary butterfly. His wings sparkled with magical spots that glowed like tiny stars! So, when he fluttered close to [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N), she gasped. 'Hello, [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N)!' [Flyby](JXB2TGZF) said softly. [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N)’s eyes grew wide. She had never heard a butterfly speak before!

'Why are you so sparkly?' she asked quietly. 'I sparkle because I like helping little ones find their courage,' [Flyby](JXB2TGZF) replied. 'Would you like me to help you be brave too?' [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) hesitated but nodded shyly.

[Flyby](JXB2TGZF) fluttered onto [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N)’s shoulder. 'Let’s try something magical—let’s dance under the bright sky!' [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) giggled nervously. With [Flyby](JXB2TGZF) leading the way, she twirled and laughed, and soon her fear started to fade. It felt fantastic to try something new!

That night, [Flyby](JXB2TGZF) landed on her pillow. '[Gracie](KT2YWQ6N), let’s try sleeping in your own room tonight. I’ll be right here with you.' [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) took a deep breath. Her room looked cozy and bright, with her favorite blanket and her stuffed bunny waiting.

[Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) snuggled under her blanket. 'What if I get scared?' she asked. 'Then remember our dancing today, and how brave you felt,' [Flyby](JXB2TGZF) replied. 'You’re braver than you think, [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N).' She smiled sleepily, holding her bunny tightly.

In the morning, [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) woke up feeling proud. 'I did it!' she cheered. From then on, [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) started trying more new things, whether it was playing on the big slide or tasting a new vegetable. [Flyby](JXB2TGZF)’s sparkle lit her way.

Before long, [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) didn’t need [Flyby](JXB2TGZF) to remind her to be brave. 'I can do it!' she would declare, and her heart felt like it sparkled, just like [Flyby](JXB2TGZF)’s wings. And every night, she said, 'Goodnight,' in her very own room.

[Flyby](JXB2TGZF) still visited her sometimes, but [Gracie](KT2YWQ6N) didn’t need magic to be brave anymore. She had found her own sparkle and never felt scared to try new things again!
