A brand new scooter (滑板车) was recently left outside a shop in Cornwall with a heartwarming note saying: "Free to a little boy or girl who is not lucky enough to have one." The scooter belonged to Max, a generous six﹣year﹣old. The child was given a new scooter for his birthday but he already had one, so he decided that he didn't need it.

He told his parents he wanted a family who could not afford a scooter to take his extra one and they helped him put a plan together. They spoke with the owner of a local shop in Trispen, Cornwall, who let the family leave the scooter outside. They attached a note to it saying it was free to take.

When the family returned to the shop after a short trip out, they found a thank you note sitting where the scooter once stood, and the family then knew that a happy child was racing home with a new scooter. The note read: "Thank you so much! I love my new scooter. Love Ayla."

Max's mum, Deborah, proudly said her six-year-old son had always been generous. The family was thrilled that someone could appreciate and treasure their spare scooter. She also added how they would love to hear from Ayla.

"He realized he couldn't have two scooters so he said he wanted to give it to another boy or girl who didn't have one," Deborah said. The post has been widely shared and appreciated. Max's kind action has warmed the hearts of many people on Facebook. "I'm very proud of him. He's my little superstar. There are kind people out there."
