The Winner

The Winner Davey goes over to his friend’s house to show him his new bird, Jake. Davey’s friend Mike Jones asks Davey what he will do with his new pet. Davey tells Mike that he plans to train his new bird to do various tricks. Davey’s friend is building a coaster racer for the big race in three weeks. Davey decides to enter the race too. Davey begins to train his new bird to carry nails to him while he is building his coaster racer. Jake learns how to carry nails to Davey. Goliath begins to get jealous of Davey’s new pet bird Jake. Davey asks Goliath to please help him to get the tires for his coaster. Davey tells Goliath that he needs to go and see his friend Mike. Davey is having problems with his wheels on his racer. Davey wants Mike to show him how to put the wheels on his road racer. Mike teaches Davey how to put the wheels on the axis of the racer. As Davey is talking to Mike, Jake flys off. Davey decides to let Jake and Goliath help him to put the wheels on his new racer. They finish the racer and Mom and Dad tells Davey that they are so proud that he made his racer himself. Tomorrow is the big day of the race. Davey will be racing in the second race. As Davey prepares to race, Jake flys and sits on Davey’s racing helmet. Dad comes and gets Jake. The race begins and Davey Hanson is the winner of the second race! Now, the final race is coming up and Davey Hanson and his friend Mike Jones are in the race. As the race is near the end, the cotter pin to Davey’s wheel comes off. Mike Jones wins the final big race! Davey was upset when he didn’t win the race. Davey asks Dad why he didn’t win and why he isn’t as good as Mike as far as building his race car. Dad explains that God made us all different for a reason. Can you imagine what the world would be like if we all had the same gifts? What if everyone were firemen, but we didn’t have a policeman? Or, what if everyone looked the same? God gives each individual their own special gifts. Now Davey understands why Mike was able to be the winner of the race, he is gifted to be able to fix and repair things. Mike calls Davey and tells Davey that his Dad gave him a bird like Jake for winning the big race! Mike asks Davey if he will help him to train his new bird. Now Davey realizes that he is needed by Mike because God gave him the special gift to train animals like Goliath and Jake!
