While watching the television with widely open eyes in surprise, Little Dio said, “Mumma I also wanna walk on TV in pretty dresses like these pretty ladies.” Hearing this Mother Dio passed a cookie to her cutiepie, saying, “Well, these pretty ladies are called fashion models sweetie and they are dressed like this to showcase the hardwork and talent of a fashion designer.”

Little Dio munching over her cookies curiously asked, “So mumma, when can I become a model?” 

Seeing her curiousity and smiling at her innocence Mother Dio explained, “This is a job that requires a lot of hardwork. You would have to follow some rules, your diet would be planned, you would have to exercise to stay fit, would have to follow skincare routines, undergo various show practices and would definitely have to be an adult sweetie.”

Hearing all this, Little Dio was a bit confused as she asked, “But Mumma they are just walking front and back on the stage.”

Mother Dio clearing her doubts explained, “They are walking in a particular manner which is an art and requires practice to master. Each of these pretty ladies have been selected from many other pretty ladies to walk on the stage. They all have a passion for fashion and a fire within them that’s making them shine.”

“Oooo Mumma fire! They must be hot then, won’t the clothes catch fire? Oh, and does that mean they can’t even have one cookie?” 

Mother Dio replied with a humble smile, “Sweetheart, the fire within them is the fuel to their hard work and helps them stay safe from the cold storm of failure.” Waiting for mumma to answer her cookie question, little Dio looks forward to her mother, “and well, yes they can eat a cookie but only after eating the veggies!”

    While the story definitely teaches us the valuable lesson of having passion for the work that you do, in this case, modelling, it lacks in consistency. The child, Little Dio, is obviously a naturally inquisitive child, and her nature is further nurtured by her mother, who is a model parent. Little Dio’s mother does not back down from answering her questions, which highlights how important it is for a parent to feed their child’s curiosity. Overall, the story has obviously been created with the intention of imparting vital lessons. However, as said before, it reads as if it has been written by someone with a poor grasp of the English language. It’s either that, or the author is a ten year old. With a little bit of refinement, this particular story could be something special.

    Hey there! I read your story “Little Dio and Fashion Models” and found it to be a sweet and charming story about a curious child’s dreams of becoming a fashion model. I liked how you captured the mother-child dialogue and highlighted the dedication and passion required for modeling. However, I believe adding a stronger plot or conflict could make the story more engaging. It would also be beneficial to explore Little Dio’s emotional journey in more depth and fine-tune the dialogue to better suit her age. Overall, the story has great potential with just a few adjustments. Keep up the good work!
