Amber: The Little Yellowish-brown Light

Amber, the yellowish-brown light, was feeling sad. She was thinking about her own job. She

thought, “My friends, Green Light and Red Light, have the best jobs. Everyone listens to

Green when he lights up and says ‘Go!’ Everyone stops and stares at Red when they see

him. But nobody cares very much about me.”

One day Green and Red argued about who had the better job. After a long quarrel, Green

lit up as bright as he could. Dodge, the Truck, smiled at Green and began to move along.

There was a car named Saloon, moving behind Dodge. At that moment, Red turned his

light on and lit up as bright as he could. Dodge stopped suddenly when he saw Red. And

Saloon, following behind, crashed into Dodge.

Amber was watching and became worried. She knew she had to do something. Immediately

she turned her light on and said, ‘Slow down’. Amber was amazed to see that all the cars

were slowing down. She told Red to light up and Red did so. She was pleased to see that

the cars stopped. Then she told Green to light up and Green did so. One by one the cars

started to move slowly. Finally, she realized that all the traffic lights were important. From

that day on, Amber was never sad again.
