Sneetches are a group of animals that live on the beach, divided into those with stars on their bellies and those without. The Sneetches with stars claimed they were more noble and never talked, played, or partied with the Sneetches without stars.





One day a businessman came with a machine that the Sneetches without stars on their bellies could create stars on their bellies if they paid for it. This, the beach in chaos, first everyone has stars on their bellies, the original belly of the stars on the Sneetches afraid of their dignity status is not maintained, in the merchant here to spend money to wash away the stars, and then re-declare that no stars on the belly is the honorable, everyone ran to wash the stars again. So repeatedly, this farce until all the money was earned by the merchants to stop.



On the surface it seems that the merchant is the biggest winner, but the beach Sneetches suddenly awakened to understand that there is no difference between noble and poor, we are all Sneetches, we are all equal. This story tells us: first of all, do not discriminate or look down on others for any reason, everyone is equal, we need to learn to respect others. Secondly, we need to understand that everyone is a unique individual, and everyone is born with their own uniqueness, so we need to understand the world and the differences between individuals. Finally, we need to learn to fill our hearts with love and to look at anyone or anything with kindness and friendship.
