+Once upon a time, there was an intelligent cat named Kitty. Kitty lived in a big house with a little girl named Emma. They liked to play together every day.
+
+One day, Kitty went to the toilet and saw that there was no toilet paper. Kitty said, "Oh no! What do I do?" Emma heard Kitty and wanted to help. She went to the store and bought some toilet paper. Then, she went to the toilet and said, "Kitty, I give you toilet paper."
+
+Kitty was very happy and said, "Thank you, Emma!" They both smiled and continued to play together. From that day on, they always made sure there was toilet paper in the toilet. And they lived happily ever after.

+
+One day, a small bird came to the bush. The bird saw the berry and wanted to eat it. But the berry said, "Please don't eat me. I want to grow big and strong like the tree."
+
+The bird listened to the berry and flew away. The berry grew and grew. It became bigger and stronger. The tree was not dizzy anymore because the berry was big and strong too.
+
+Soon, many more berries grew on the bush. All the birds came to see the big and strong berries. They were all happy and played together in the big green garden. And the little red berry was the biggest and strongest of them all.

+
+Pippin and Timmy walked and looked for Timmy's mom. They saw many penguins, but they did not find Timmy's mom. Then, they heard a voice say, "Timmy, where are you?" It was Timmy's mom!

+
+Tim showed the magic button to his friend, Sue. "Look, Sue! I found a magic button!" said Tim. Sue was excited too. "What does the button do?" she asked. Tim didn't know, so they decided to find out.
+
+They put the button in the garden and watered it. Suddenly, a big, fast-growing plant came out of the ground! It grew so fast that it reached the sky. Tim and Sue were amazed.

+
+In his story, Tim wrote about a big, yummy pizza. The pizza had lots of cheese and pepperoni. It was very tasty. Tim's friends loved to eat pizza too. They would all sit together and share the big pizza. But there was a problem. The pizza was dirty.
+
+The dirty pizza had mud and dirt on it. Tim and his friends didn't want to eat the dirty pizza. So they all worked together to clean the pizza. They used water and soap to make it nice and clean. After the pizza was clean, they all ate it together. It was the best pizza they ever had.
+
+From that day on, Tim and his friends always made sure their pizza was clean. They also loved to write stories together. They wrote about all the fun things they did and the yummy food they ate. And they lived happily ever after.
+Once upon a time, there was a lady who lived in a small house. One day, she saw a cat outside her door. The lady was very kind and gave the cat some food. The cat was happy and said, "Thank you, lady!"
+
+The lady was surprised and asked, "Do you know how to talk?" The cat nodded and said, "Yes, I do. I am a magic cat." The lady was excited and wanted to know more about the magic cat.
+
+But the lady was also a bit foolish. She thought that if she had a magic cat, she could do anything. So she asked the cat to make her fly. The cat said, "I can't do that. I am not that kind of magic cat." The lady was sad, but she still loved her new friend. She learned that being foolish is not always bad, as long as you have a good friend to help you.

+
+Tim's mom saw him trying to chew the ball. She said, "Tim, don't chew the ball. It's not for chewing. It's for playing." Tim listened to his mom and stopped trying to chew the ball. He played with the ball and his other fancy toys from the chest. And they all lived happily ever after.

+Ben and Mia liked to swim in the sea. They had big fins and masks. They saw many fish and shells. They wanted to see the reef. The reef was a big wall of rocks and plants under the water. It had many colors and shapes.
+
+They swam and swam until they saw the reef. They were happy and excited. They looked at the reef and saw more fish and shells. They also saw a little star. The star was yellow and had five points. It was on a rock. Ben wanted to touch the star.
+
+"Look, Mia, a little star!" Ben said. "Can I touch it?"
+
+Mia shook her head. "No, Ben, don't touch it. It can hurt you. It has sharp things on its back. They can make you bleed. We have to pass the star and keep swimming."
+
+Ben was sad. He liked the star. He wanted to touch it. But he listened to Mia. He knew she was right. He did not want to get hurt. He passed the star and kept swimming with Mia. They saw more things on the reef. They had fun and learned a lot. They were good friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big gray rock. It looked like a house for bugs. They wanted to see the bugs.
+
+"Let's lift the rock and look," Ben said.
+
+"OK," Lily said. They both grabbed the rock and pulled hard. The rock was heavy and rough. It had sharp edges. Lily felt a sharp pain in her hand. She let go of the rock and cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she said. "The rock cut me!"
+
+Ben dropped the rock and ran to Lily. He saw blood on her hand. He felt sorry for her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," he said. "Are you OK?"
+
+He took a tissue from his pocket and wrapped it around her hand. He gave her a hug.
+
+"Let's go to Mommy," he said. "She will make it better."
+
+They ran to the bench where Mommy was sitting. She saw their faces and knew something was wrong.
+
+"What happened, my loves?" she asked.
+
+"We were playing with a gray rock and it cut Lily's hand," Ben said.
+
+Mommy looked at Lily's hand and saw the tissue. She took it off gently and cleaned the wound with some water. She put a band-aid on it and kissed it.
+
+"There, there," she said. "It will heal soon. You were very brave, Lily. And you were very kind, Ben. You are good friends."
+
+She gave them both a juice box and a cookie. The juice was sour, but the cookie was sweet. They smiled and thanked Mommy.
+
+They decided to play with something else. They saw a slide, a swing, and a sandbox. They forgot about the gray rock and the sharp pain. They had fun in the park.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and water the plants. Lila saw a big squash on the vine. She wanted to pick it and show it to Mom.
+
+"Look, Tom, a squash!" she said. "Can we pick it?"
+
+Tom nodded. He tried to pull the squash, but it was too heavy. He asked Lila to help him.
+
+They both pulled and pulled, but the squash did not move. They decided to twist it instead. They twisted and twisted, but the squash did not come off. They twisted harder and harder, but the squash only got tighter.
+
+"Ouch!" Lila said. "The squash is hurting my hand!"
+
+"Me too!" Tom said. "It is very hard and prickly!"
+
+They let go of the squash and rubbed their hands. They felt sad and sore. They wanted to give up.
+
+But then they heard a voice. It was Mom. She was coming to the garden.
+
+"Hi, kids!" she said. "What are you doing?"
+
+"We are trying to pick a squash, Mom," Lila said. "But it is too hard and it hurts."
+
+Mom smiled. She saw the big squash on the vine. She knew it was not ready to pick yet.
+
+"That is a very big squash, kids," she said. "But it is not ripe yet. It needs more time to grow and soften. That is why it is so hard and prickly. You have to be patient and wait for it to be ready."
+
+Lila and Tom looked at the squash. They felt silly and sorry. They did not know it was not ripe yet.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," they said. "We did not mean to hurt the squash."
+
+Mom hugged them. She was not angry. She was proud.
+
+"It is okay, kids," she said. "You did not hurt the squash. You were just curious and brave. You tried to do something hard. That is good. But sometimes you have to be careful and gentle. You have to respect the plants and their needs. They are living things, too."
+
+Lila and Tom nodded. They understood. They wanted to be careful and gentle. They wanted to respect the plants and their needs.
+
+They thanked Mom for teaching them. They asked her if they could help her with the other plants. She said yes. They followed her to the garden. They watered and weeded and sang to the plants. They had fun. They forgot about the squash. They knew it would be ready someday. And when it was, they would pick it and share it and eat it. And they would be happy.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys and run in the park. But they do not like to eat chicken. They think chicken is yucky and hard to chew.
+
+One day, Mom makes chicken for dinner. She puts it on their plates and says, "Eat your chicken, boys. It is good for you and tasty."
+
+Tom and Sam look at the chicken and make faces. They do not want to eat it. They want to eat something else, like pizza or cookies.
+
+"Please, Mom, can we have something else?" they ask.
+
+"No, you have to eat your chicken first. It is not polite to waste food. And it is not too hot, it is cool now. Try it, you might like it," Mom says.
+
+Tom and Sam sigh. They pick up their forks and poke the chicken. They take a small bite and chew slowly. They do not like the taste or the texture. They want to spit it out, but they know Mom will be mad.
+
+They look at each other and make a plan. They pretend to eat the chicken, but they hide it under their napkins or in their pockets. They hope Mom will not notice.
+
+But Mom is not fooled. She sees the chicken lumps under the napkins and in the pockets. She is not happy.
+
+"Boys, what are you doing? Why are you hiding your chicken? That is not nice or honest. You have to eat your chicken, or you will not get any dessert," she says.
+
+Tom and Sam feel bad. They know they did something wrong. They say sorry to Mom and take out the chicken. They eat it, even though they do not like it. They chew and swallow and make a face.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Thank you, boys, for eating your chicken. I know you do not like it, but it is good for you. And I have a surprise for you. For dessert, we have ice cream!"
+
+Tom and Sam are happy. They love ice cream. They finish their chicken and wash their hands. They sit down again and wait for the ice cream. They think ice cream is yummy and cool and easy to chew. They forget about the chicken and smile.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They run and jump and slide and swing. They have fun.
+
+But after a while, they feel hot and thirsty. They want to drink some water. They see a stand near the park. The stand has a big sign that says "Lemonade". The stand is orange. Anna and Ben like lemonade.
+
+They run to the stand. They see a lady behind the stand. She smiles at them.
+
+"Hello, do you want some lemonade?" she asks.
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+The lady pours some lemonade in two cups. She gives them to Anna and Ben. They pay her with some coins.
+
+"Thank you!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They drink the lemonade. It is cold and sweet and sour. It makes them feel better.
+
+"Yummy!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They finish their lemonade. They put their cups in the trash can. They wave to the lady.
+
+"Bye, thank you!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They run back to the park. They play some more. They are happy.
+Sara and Tom were playing in their room. They had many toys and books, but they wanted to do something new. They looked around and saw a big box. They opened it and found a big blanket.
+
+"Let's make a fort!" Sara said. "We can hide under the blanket and pretend we are in a cave."
+
+"OK!" Tom said. "But we need a light. It is too dark under the blanket."
+
+They looked for a light. They saw a flashlight on the shelf. They took it and turned it on. They crawled under the blanket and made a cozy fort.
+
+They shone the flashlight on the ceiling. They saw many shapes and colors. They looked like stars and planets and animals.
+
+"Wow!" Sara said. "It is like we are in space. Look, there is a moon and a rocket and a bear."
+
+"I see them!" Tom said. "And there is a cake and a candy and a banana."
+
+They pretended they were astronauts and explorers. They talked about the things they saw and the places they wanted to go. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Then they heard a knock on the door. It was their mom.
+
+"Time for lunch, kids!" she said. "I made you some sandwiches and juice. They are delicious."
+
+Sara and Tom lifted the blanket and peeked out. They saw their mom smiling at them.
+
+"Can we eat in our fort?" Sara asked.
+
+"Sure, why not?" their mom said. "But don't make a mess. And don't forget to share."
+
+She gave them their plates and cups and left them to enjoy their lunch.
+
+Sara and Tom thanked their mom and said they loved her. They ate their sandwiches and juice. They were delicious. They shared their food and their stories. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a trail in the grass. It was made by a big snail.
+
+"Look, a snail trail!" Tom said. "Let's follow it!"
+
+They ran after the trail. It was shiny and wet. It went under a bush and over a rock. They kneeled down to see where it went.
+
+They found the snail at the end of the trail. It was hiding in a shell. It had a curly horn and a slimy body.
+
+"Hello, snail!" Lily said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The snail did not answer. It was shy. It stayed in its shell.
+
+Tom and Lily thought the snail was silly. They wanted it to come out and have fun.
+
+They tickled the snail with a leaf. They sang a song to the snail. They made funny faces at the snail.
+
+But the snail did not move. It did not like to be bothered.
+
+Tom and Lily got bored. They decided to leave the snail alone.
+
+"Bye, snail!" they said. "Maybe next time you will play with us!"
+
+They ran away to find another game. They forgot about the snail.
+
+The snail peeked out of its shell. It was glad they were gone. It did not want to play. It liked to be quiet and slow.
+
+It crawled away to find another trail. It was happy to be a snail.
+Sara and Ben like to play in the park. They see a big grill with smoke and smell something good. They run to the grill and see a man with a hat and a spatula.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you want a hot dog?" the man asks.
+
+"Yes, please!" Sara and Ben say.
+
+The man smiles and puts two hot dogs on buns. He gives them to Sara and Ben and some ketchup and mustard.
+
+"Thank you, mister!" Sara and Ben say.
+
+"You're welcome. Enjoy your hot dogs. They are fair and tasty," the man says.
+
+Sara and Ben sit on a bench and eat their hot dogs. They are very happy and full. They see other kids playing with a ball and a slide. They want to join them.
+
+"Can we play, too?" Sara asks.
+
+"Sure, come and play with us!" a girl says.
+
+Sara and Ben finish their hot dogs and run to the playground. They make new friends and have fun. They like the park and the grill. They think the man is very nice. They want to come back again.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. They had a navy ball that they kicked and threw to each other. They also liked to look at the birds and the flowers and the clouds. The park was peaceful and they felt happy.
+
+One day, they saw a big dog in the park. It was brown and furry and had a long tail. It was running and barking and chasing a stick. Ben and Lily wanted to pet the dog, but they were a little scared. They asked their mom if they could go near the dog.
+
+"Sure, but be careful and gentle," their mom said. "The dog might not like it if you poke him or pull his fur. Ask the owner if you can say hello first."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and walked slowly to the dog. The owner was a nice lady who smiled at them. "Hello, kids. Do you want to meet my dog? His name is Rex."
+
+"Yes, please," Ben and Lily said. "He is very cute. Can we pet him?"
+
+"Of course, but be gentle," the lady said. "Rex is friendly, but he doesn't like to be poked or pulled. He likes to be scratched behind his ears and on his belly."
+
+Ben and Lily reached out their hands and touched Rex softly. He wagged his tail and licked their faces. He rolled over and let them scratch his belly. He was warm and soft and made them giggle.
+
+"Wow, he is so nice," Ben said.
+
+"Yeah, he is," Lily said. "Can we play with him?"
+
+"Sure, you can throw his stick for him. He loves to fetch," the lady said. "But don't throw it too far or too hard. He might get tired or hurt."
+
+Ben and Lily took turns throwing the stick for Rex. He ran and caught it and brought it back. He barked and jumped and played. Ben and Lily had fun with Rex. They thanked the lady and said goodbye to Rex. They hugged him and gave him a treat.
+
+"Bye, Rex. You are a good dog," Ben said.
+
+"Bye, Rex. We love you," Lily said.
+
+They went back to their mom and told her about Rex. They said he was nice and friendly and fun. They asked if they could come back to the park and play with him again.
+
+"Maybe, if we see him again," their mom said. "But now it's time to go home. You had a long and exciting day. You need to rest and eat and sleep."
+
+Ben and Lily agreed. They were tired and hungry and sleepy. They took their navy ball and held their mom's hand. They walked home, feeling peaceful and happy. They dreamed of Rex and the park and the stick. They hoped to see him again.
+Jill and Ben went to a new place to eat with Mom and Dad. They saw a big sign that said "Welcome to Pete's Pizza". They were happy because they liked pizza a lot.
+
+They walked in and a nice lady gave them a menu. A menu is a paper with pictures and words of the food you can choose. Jill and Ben looked at the menu and saw many kinds of pizza. They saw cheese pizza, pepperoni pizza, pineapple pizza, and more.
+
+"What do you want, Jill?" Mom asked.
+
+"I want cheese pizza, please," Jill said.
+
+"What about you, Ben?" Dad asked.
+
+"I want pepperoni pizza, please," Ben said.
+
+The nice lady took their menu and said she would bring their pizza soon. They sat at a table and waited. They saw other people eating pizza and talking. They smelled the cheese and the sauce.
+
+Soon, the nice lady came back with their pizza. She put it on the table and said, "Enjoy your pizza, kids. It's very hot, so be careful."
+
+"Thank you," Jill and Ben said.
+
+They took a bite of their pizza and smiled. It was very yummy. They ate and ate until they were full.
+
+Mom and Dad also ate their pizza. They liked it too. But they noticed that the nice lady looked pale. Pale means not having much color in your face. She looked tired and sad.
+
+"Are you okay?" Mom asked the nice lady.
+
+The nice lady sighed and said, "Not really. I have been working very hard, but I don't have enough money to pay my bills. I don't know what to do."
+
+Mom and Dad felt sorry for the nice lady. They wanted to help her. They gave her a big tip and a hug. They said, "You are doing a great job. We hope things get better for you soon."
+
+The nice lady smiled and said, "Thank you. You are very kind. You made my day."
+
+Jill and Ben also gave her a hug and said, "Thank you for the pizza. It was very good. We hope you feel better."
+
+The nice lady thanked them again and said, "You are very sweet. You are welcome to come back anytime."
+
+Jill and Ben nodded and said, "We will. We like this place. We like you."
+
+They left the place and waved goodbye to the nice lady. They felt happy and full. They learned that pizza is not only yummy, but also a way to make friends.
+Tom likes cars. He likes to play with his toy cars and make them go fast. He likes to watch cars on the road and see their colors and shapes. He likes to go to the mechanic with his dad and see the big cars and the tools.
+
+One day, Tom and his dad go to the mechanic. The mechanic is a nice man who fixes cars. He has a big garage with many cars inside. He also has a display with pictures of cars and parts. Tom likes to look at the display and learn new words.
+
+"Look, dad, this is a wheel. And this is a door. And this is a engine," Tom says, pointing at the display.
+
+"Very good, Tom. You know a lot about cars," his dad says, smiling.
+
+The mechanic comes over and greets them. He says he has to fix their car, but it will take some time. He says their car is slow and needs a new part.
+
+"Why is our car slow, dad?" Tom asks.
+
+"Because it is old and worn out, Tom. It needs a new part to make it go faster and smoother," his dad explains.
+
+"Can we get a new car, dad?" Tom asks.
+
+"Maybe someday, Tom. But for now, we have to wait for the mechanic to fix our car. He is very good at his job," his dad says.
+
+Tom nods. He likes the mechanic. He likes cars. He waits patiently with his dad and looks at the display. He learns more words and has fun. He hopes their car will be fast and smooth soon.
+Mia had a new friend at school. Her name was Lily and she liked to play with dolls and draw pictures. Mia wanted to introduce Lily to her mom, who was picking her up after school.
+
+"Mom, this is Lily. She is my new friend. We played together today," Mia said, holding Lily's hand.
+
+"Hello, Lily. It's nice to meet you. You have a pretty dress," Mia's mom said, smiling.

+
+Mia's mom bent down and hugged both girls. "You are both very sweet. Do you want to come over to our house for a snack?" she asked.
+
+Lily nodded and looked at her mom, who was waiting by the gate. "Can I, mom?" she asked.
+
+"Of course, dear. I'll come with you. I want to meet Mia's mom too," Lily's mom said, walking over.
+
+Mia's mom stood up and held her hand out. "Hi, I'm Anna. Mia's mom. It's a pleasure to meet you," she said.
+
+"Hi, I'm Laura. Lily's mom. Thank you for inviting us," Lily's mom said, shaking her hand.
+
+They walked to Mia's mom's car, which was big and blue. Mia's mom opened the door and helped the girls get in. She buckled their seat belts and gave them each a stuffed animal to hold.
+
+"Here, this is Mr. Bear. He is very soft and cuddly. And this is Ms. Bunny. She is very fluffy and cute," Mia's mom said.
+
+"Thank you. They are very nice," Lily said, hugging Ms. Bunny.
+
+Mia smiled and hugged Mr. Bear. "They are my friends too. I like to sleep with them at night," she said.
+
+Mia's mom got in the driver's seat and Lily's mom got in the front seat. They drove to Mia's house, which was not far away. Mia's mom turned on the radio and sang along to a happy song. Lily's mom tapped her foot and clapped her hands. The girls giggled and sang too.
+
+They arrived at Mia's house and got out of the car. Mia's mom opened the door and welcomed them in. She led them to the kitchen, where she had prepared some cookies and milk.
+
+"Here you go, girls. Enjoy your snack. You can sit at the table or on the couch. Whatever you like," Mia's mom said.
+
+"Thank you. You are very kind," Lily's mom said.
+
+The girls sat on the couch and ate their cookies. They were very yummy and crunchy. They drank their milk and felt very full and happy.
+
+Mia's mom sat on the couch too and talked to Lily's mom. They found out that they had a lot in common. They both liked to read books and watch movies. They both worked as teachers and loved their jobs. They both had husbands who were away on a business trip and missed them a lot.
+
+They laughed and chatted and became friends too. They decided to exchange phone numbers and plan another play date soon.
+
+Mia and Lily finished their snack and asked if they could play in Mia's room. Mia's mom said yes and showed them the way. She told them to have fun and be careful.
+
+Mia's room was very colorful and cozy. She had a lot of toys and books and posters on the walls. She had a big bed with a pink blanket and a lot of pillows.
+
+"Wow, your room is very nice. I like it a lot," Lily said.
+
+"Thank you. You can play with anything you want. I have dolls and cars and puzzles and blocks and more," Mia said.
+
+They decided to play with the dolls first. They picked their favorite ones and gave them names and personalities. They pretended that they were sisters and went on adventures together. They had a lot of fun and made up stories and jokes.
+
+They played with the dolls for a long time. Then they switched to the cars and raced them on the floor. They made vroom-vroom noises and cheered for their cars. They played with the cars for a while. Then they switched to the puzzles and tried to solve them. They worked together and helped each other. They played with the puzzles for a bit. Then they switched to the blocks and built towers and castles and bridges. They used their imagination and creativity. They played with the blocks for some time.
+
+They played with all the toys and had a blast. They also looked at the books and the posters and talked about them. They learned more about each other and what they liked and disliked. They found out that they had a lot in common too. They both liked to dance and sing and draw. They both hated
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with colors. They have many colors in a box. They can make pictures with colors on paper.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their moms. They bring their colors and paper. They find a nice spot under a big tree. They start to make pictures. Tom makes a picture of a car. Lily makes a picture of a flower.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. The dog is dirty. He has mud on his fur. He sees the colors and paper. He thinks they are toys. He runs to Tom and Lily. He grabs the paper with his mouth. He tears it. He steps on the colors. He breaks them.
+
+Tom and Lily are very sad. They cry. They say, "No, no, no! Bad dog! Go away! You ruined our pictures! You broke our colors!"
+
+The dog does not understand. He thinks they want to play. He wags his tail. He barks.
+
+Their moms hear them cry. They come to see what is wrong. They see the dog, the paper, and the colors. They say, "Oh, no! What a mess! We are sorry, Tom and Lily. The dog did not mean to hurt your things. He is just a silly dog. He does not know better."
+
+They hug Tom and Lily. They help them clean up. They give them new paper and new colors. They say, "You can make new pictures. Do you want to do that?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They stop crying. They smile. They say, "Yes, please. Thank you, moms. We still like colors. And we still like dogs. But not dirty dogs."
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play together. Today, they go to the park with their moms. The park has a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox.
+
+"Let's play on the slide first!" Sara says. She runs to the slide and climbs up the ladder. Tom follows her. They slide down one by one, laughing and shouting. "This is brilliant!" Tom says.
+
+Then they go to the swing. Sara pushes Tom and Tom pushes Sara. They swing higher and higher, feeling the wind in their hair. "This is brilliant too!" Sara says.
+
+Finally, they go to the sandbox. They use their buckets and shovels to make a castle. They decorate it with sticks and stones and leaves. They pretend to be a king and a queen. "This is the most brilliant of all!" Tom says.
+
+They play until their moms call them. "It's time to go home, kids!" their moms say. Sara and Tom hug each other and say goodbye. "Can we play again tomorrow?" Sara asks. "Yes, let's play again tomorrow!" Tom says. They smile and wave as they leave the park. They are happy. They had a brilliant day.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a big tree with a swing. They take turns to swing high and low.
+
+One day, they see a bird on the tree. It is brown and white, with a long tail. It sings a pretty song. Tom and Lily want to see it closer.
+
+"Let's climb the tree," Tom says. He is clever and brave. He knows how to climb.
+
+"No, it is too high," Lily says. She is clever and careful. She knows it is not safe.
+
+"Come on, it will be fun," Tom says. He lies to Lily. He wants her to come with him.
+
+Lily is not sure. She wonders what the bird will do. She wonders if Tom will help her. She wonders if Mom will be angry.
+
+"OK, I will try," Lily says. She follows Tom to the tree. They climb slowly and quietly. They reach the branch where the bird is.
+
+The bird sees them. It is not happy. It flaps its wings and flies away. It makes a loud noise.
+
+Tom and Lily are sad. They wanted to see the bird. They wanted to hear its song.
+
+They hear another noise. It is Mom. She is calling them.
+
+"Tom! Lily! Where are you?" Mom says. She is looking for them. She is worried.
+
+Tom and Lily look at each other. They know they did something wrong. They climb down the tree. They run to Mom.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Tom says. He is sorry he lied to Lily. He is sorry he climbed the tree.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Lily says. She is sorry she followed Tom. She is sorry she climbed the tree.
+
+Mom hugs them. She is glad they are safe. She is not angry. She is proud.
+
+"You are clever, Tom and Lily," Mom says. "But you are also naughty. You should not climb the tree. You should listen to me."
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They understand. They love Mom. They love the bird. They love the garden. They love each other.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big hole in the ground. It looks like a cave.
+
+"Let's go inside!" Ben says. He is brave.
+
+"No, it is dark and scary!" Lila says. She is afraid.
+
+"Come on, it will be fun!" Ben says. He takes Lila's hand and pulls her to the hole.
+
+They go inside the cave. It is dark and cold. They see some rocks and sticks. They also see some cans and bottles. Someone left them there.
+
+"Look, we can mix things!" Ben says. He picks up a can and a stick. He shakes the can and hits it with the stick. It makes a loud noise.
+
+"Stop, it is too loud!" Lila says. She covers her ears. She does not like the noise.
+
+"Sorry, I was just having fun!" Ben says. He puts down the can and the stick. He sees a bottle and a rock. He picks them up. He pours the bottle on the rock. It makes a fizz and a smell.
+
+"Wow, what is that?" Lila says. She comes closer to see. She smells the fizz. It smells bad.
+
+"Yuck, it is gross!" Ben says. He drops the bottle and the rock. He wipes his hands on his pants.
+
+"Let's get out of here!" Lila says. She grabs Ben's hand and runs to the hole.
+
+They get out of the cave. They see the sun and the grass. They feel the air and the wind. They are happy.
+
+"We are safe!" Lila says. She hugs Ben.
+
+"Yes, we are safe!" Ben says. He hugs Lila back.
+
+They go back to the park. They play with their ball and their bike. They do not go to the cave again. They do not like to mix things. They like to be safe.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play with toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a laser. A laser was a thing that made a bright red light. They could point the laser at the wall, the floor, or the ceiling, and make shapes and patterns with the light.
+
+One day, they decided to play with the laser in their room. They turned off the light and closed the door. They pointed the laser at the wall and made a big circle. Then they pointed it at the floor and made a small square. They had fun making different shapes with the laser.
+
+But they did not know that their dog, Rex, was in the room too. Rex was a good and obedient dog, who always listened to Tim and Kim. He liked to play with them, but he did not like the laser. He thought the laser was a bad thing that hurt his eyes. He wanted to catch the laser and make it stop.
+
+So when he saw the laser on the floor, he ran towards it and tried to bite it. But the laser moved away, and Rex followed it. He chased the laser all over the room, barking and growling. He knocked over the toys, the books, and the lamp. He made a big mess.
+
+Tim and Kim heard Rex and turned on the light. They saw the mess and Rex still chasing the laser. They were scared and sorry. They turned off the laser and called Rex. Rex came to them and wagged his tail. He was happy to see them, but he did not like the laser.
+
+"Bad laser! Bad laser!" Rex said.
+
+"Sorry, Rex. We did not mean to make you mad. We were just playing with the laser. We like the laser. It is fun," Tim said.
+
+"But the laser is not fun. The laser is bad. It hurts my eyes. It makes me angry. I do not like the laser," Rex said.
+
+"Maybe you are right, Rex. Maybe the laser is not a good toy for you. Maybe we should play with something else. Something that you like too," Kim said.
+
+"Yes, yes. Play with something else. Play with me. Play with the ball. The ball is good. The ball is fun. I like the ball," Rex said.
+
+"OK, Rex. We will play with the ball. We will not play with the laser anymore. We will put the laser away. We will be careful with the laser. We will not hurt your eyes," Tim said.
+
+"Thank you, Tim. Thank you, Kim. You are good and obedient twins. You listen to me. I listen to you. I love you. You love me. We are a happy family," Rex said.
+
+They hugged Rex and gave him the ball. They played with the ball and Rex. They had fun. They did not play with the laser anymore. They did not recommend the laser to anyone. They recommended the ball. The ball was a good toy for everyone. The end.
+Lily was a princess who liked to play with her crown. She had a big crown with shiny stones and a small crown with flowers. She wore them when she pretended to be a queen or a fairy.
+
+One day, she wanted to show her crowns to her friend Ben, who came to visit. She took him to her room, where she kept her crowns in a tidy box. She opened the box and said, "Look, Ben, these are my crowns. Do you like them?"
+
+Ben nodded and smiled. He reached out to touch the big crown, but Lily stopped him. "No, Ben, you can't touch it. It's very special and you might break it. You can only look at it."
+
+Ben felt sad and hurt. He did not want to break Lily's crown, he just wanted to see it better. He said, "But Lily, I'm your friend. You can trust me. I won't break it. Please let me touch it."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She liked Ben and did not want to make him sad. She remembered that her mom always told her to share and be kind. She said, "Okay, Ben, you can touch it. But be very careful and gentle. It's my favorite crown."
+
+Ben thanked Lily and gently picked up the big crown. He looked at the shiny stones and felt how heavy it was. He said, "Wow, Lily, this is a beautiful crown. You are very lucky to have it."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. Do you want to try the small crown? It's very pretty and light."
+
+Ben nodded and put the big crown back in the box. He tried the small crown and liked how it fit on his head. He said, "This is a nice crown too. It makes me feel like a prince."
+
+Lily and Ben laughed and played with the crowns. They pretended to be a king and a queen, a fairy and a wizard, a lion and a mouse. They had a lot of fun and forgot about the time. They were happy that they trusted each other and shared their crowns.
+Lila loved to play her violin. She liked the sound it made when she moved the stick on the strings. She played every day in her room, even when her mom said it was time for a nap.
+
+One day, she heard a knock on her door. She opened it and saw her brother Tom. He looked angry.
+
+"Stop playing that noise!" he said. "You disturb me! I want to read my book!"
+
+Lila did not like Tom's words. She liked her violin. She did not want to stop.
+
+"No, you stop!" she said. "This is my room! You go away!"
+
+Tom did not go away. He pushed Lila and grabbed her violin. He tried to break it, but Lila held on tight. They both pulled and yelled.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lila and Tom fighting over the violin. She was not happy.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asked. "Why are you disturbing each other? You should be nice and share!"
+
+She took the violin from them and put it on the bed. She made them sit on the floor and talk.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lila," Tom said. "I was rude. I know you like your violin. But it is too loud for me. Can you play it when I'm not here?"
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Lila said. "I was mean. I know you like your book. But I want to practice my violin. Can you read it somewhere else?"
+
+They looked at each other and nodded. They hugged and said sorry again.
+
+Mom smiled and gave them a kiss. She gave Lila her violin and Tom his book. She told them to play and read quietly and not to disturb each other. She left them to enjoy their things.
+
+Lila played her violin softly. Tom read his book silently. They were both happy. The violin was not dry. It was wet with Lila's love. The book was not dry. It was wet with Tom's imagination. They did not disturb each other. They respected each other.
+Lily and Ben went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and elephants. Lily liked the lions best. They had big teeth and loud roars. Ben liked the monkeys best. They had long tails and funny faces.
+
+They came to a place where they could touch some animals. There were snakes, turtles, and lizards. Lily was scared of the snakes. They were long and smooth and slithery. She did not want to touch them. Ben was brave. He wanted to touch them. He said, "Don't be scared, Lily. They are nice. You can trust me."
+
+He picked up a snake and held it in his hands. He smiled and said, "See? It is not bad. It is soft and warm. Do you want to try?" He offered the snake to Lily.
+
+Lily looked at the snake. She looked at Ben. She saw that he was happy and not hurt. She wanted to be brave too. She said, "OK, I will try." She reached out her hand and touched the snake. It was smooth and gentle. It did not bite her. She felt proud and curious. She said, "It is not bad. It is nice. Can I hold it?"
+
+Ben nodded and gave her the snake. She held it in her hands and smiled. She said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother. You helped me trust the snake." Ben hugged her and said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are a good sister. You are very brave." They both laughed and played with the snake. Mom and Dad watched them and smiled. They were happy to see them have fun and learn new things. They said, "We are proud of you, Lily and Ben. You are both very smart and kind." They took a picture of them with the snake and went to see more animals. They had a great day at the zoo.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big castle made of wood and ropes. They wanted to go inside and pretend to be kings and queens.
+
+"Can we go in the castle, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom looked at the castle and smiled. "Yes, you can, but be careful. Don't climb too high or run too fast. And stay where I can see you."
+
+"Okay, Mom. Thank you!" Lily and Ben said. They ran to the castle and climbed the stairs. They found a room with a big chair and a crown. Lily put on the crown and sat on the chair. Ben bowed to her and said, "Hello, Queen Lily. I am your loyal knight, Sir Ben."
+
+They laughed and played for a while. Then they decided to explore the rest of the castle. They went down a slide and crossed a bridge. They saw a swing and a tunnel. They had so much fun.
+
+But then, Lily felt dizzy. She had swung too fast and too long. She held her head and said, "Ben, I don't feel good. I want to go back to Mom."
+
+Ben saw that Lily was pale and sweaty. He said, "Okay, Lily. Let's go. I'll help you." He took her hand and led her out of the castle. They walked slowly to Mom.
+
+Mom saw that Lily was dizzy. She said, "Oh, Lily. What happened? Did you play too hard?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Mom. I'm sorry. The castle was so fun, but I swung too much."
+
+Mom hugged Lily and said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm glad you had fun, but you need to rest now. Here, drink some water and sit with me for a while. You'll feel better soon."
+
+Lily drank some water and sat with Mom. Ben sat with them too. He said, "Lily, you're a great queen. And I'm sorry you got dizzy."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. You're a great knight. And I'm sorry we had to leave the castle."
+
+They looked at the castle and said, "Maybe we can play there again another day. But not too much."
+
+Mom said, "Yes, maybe you can. But only if I permit you." She winked and kissed them both. They cuddled with Mom and watched the other kids play. They were happy.
+Jen and Ben are twins. They like to play and sing. They sing songs about cats, dogs, and stars. They have a big, hairy dog named Max. Max likes to sing too, but he sounds funny.
+
+One day, Jen and Ben get a letter in the mail. It is from their grandma. Grandma lives far away. She sends them stickers, candy, and a card. The card has a picture of a bird. The bird is blue and yellow. It is very pretty.
+
+Jen and Ben read the card with mom. The card says: "Dear Jen and Ben, I miss you very much. I hope you are having fun and learning new things. I have a surprise for you. I got a new pet. It is a bird. His name is Sunny. He can sing and talk. He says hello to you. Do you want to hear him?"
+
+Jen and Ben are very excited. They want to hear the bird. Mom calls grandma on the phone. Grandma answers and says hello. She puts the phone near the bird. The bird says hello too. He sounds like grandma. He also sings a song. He sings: "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are."
+
+Jen and Ben laugh. They sing along with the bird. They say: "Wow, grandma, your bird is amazing. He can sing and talk. He is very smart. We love him. We love you too. Thank you for the letter and the candy. Can we see the bird when we visit you?"
+
+Grandma says: "Of course, my dears. I can't wait to see you too. You are very sweet and clever. I'm proud of you. Keep singing and playing. I love you very much. Bye bye."
+
+Jen and Ben say bye bye to grandma and the bird. They hug mom and Max. They are happy. They have a new friend. They sing another song. They sing: "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray."
+Lila and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and smell them. They saw a big yellow flower with many petals. It was very pretty.
+
+"Can I pick it?" Lila asked Ben.
+
+"No, you can't. It is not ours. It belongs to the garden. We can only look," Ben said.
+
+But Lila did not listen. She reached out her hand to grab the flower. She did not see the bee that was on the flower. The bee was fierce. It did not like Lila's hand. It wanted to protect the flower.
+
+The bee flew at Lila and struck her hand with its sting. Lila felt a sharp pain. She cried out loud. She dropped the flower and ran to Ben.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts! It hurts!" Lila sobbed.
+
+Ben hugged Lila and tried to calm her down. He saw the red spot on her hand where the bee had struck. He took her to the house to get some ice and a band-aid.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lila. The bee was angry. You should not have picked the flower. You should have listened to me," Ben said.
+
+Lila nodded. She was sorry too. She learned her lesson. She would not pick flowers again. She would only look and smell. She hoped the bee was okay. She hoped the flower was okay. She hoped her hand would be okay.
+Sara and Ben like to bake with Mom. They help her mix the flour, the eggs and the milk. They make a big ball of dough and roll it flat. Mom gives them cookie cutters to make shapes. Sara makes stars and Ben makes circles.
+
+Mom says they can put sugar on top of the cookies. She gives them a bowl of sugar and a spoon. Sara and Ben sprinkle some sugar on their cookies. But then Ben has an idea. He wants to make his cookies more fun. He takes the spoon and scoops a lot of sugar. He throws it in the air and shouts, "Snow!"
+
+The sugar flies everywhere. It scatters on the table, on the floor, on the stove, on Mom's hair, on Sara's face. Mom gasps and Sara screams. Ben laughs and claps his hands. He thinks it is funny.
+
+But Mom does not think it is funny. She is angry and sad. She says, "Ben, what did you do? You made a big mess. You wasted the sugar. You ruined the cookies. You are a naughty boy."
+
+Ben stops laughing. He sees Mom's face and hears her voice. He feels ashamed. He says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I wanted to make snow. I didn't mean to make you mad."
+
+Mom sighs and says, "Snow is for outside, Ben. Sugar is for baking, not for throwing. You have to be careful and respectful. You have to help me clean up now."
+
+Sara and Ben nod and say, "Yes, Mom." They get a cloth and a broom. They wipe and sweep the sugar. They say sorry to Mom again. They hug her and say, "We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom smiles and says, "I love you too, Sara and Ben. But next time, please don't scatter the sugar."
+Lily and Tom went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, but Lily liked the monkeys best. They were funny and noisy and jumped from tree to tree. Lily wanted to talk to them, so she tried to whistle like Mom did. She put her lips together and blew hard, but only made a funny sound.
+
+"Whistle, whistle, monkey, whistle!" she said, but the monkeys did not answer. They only looked at her and made faces.
+
+Tom laughed at Lily. He said he could whistle better. He put his lips together and blew softly, and made a smooth sound. "See, Lily, this is how you whistle. Whistle, whistle, monkey, whistle!" he said, and one of the monkeys whistled back.
+
+Lily was amazed. She clapped her hands and smiled. She wanted to try again. She copied Tom and blew softly, and made a smooth sound too. "Whistle, whistle, monkey, whistle!" she said, and another monkey whistled back.
+
+The monkeys and the children whistled to each other for a long time. They had fun and became friends. Mom and Dad watched them and smiled. They were happy to see Lily and Tom enjoy the zoo.
+One day, a clever cat saw a big ball of fur on the grass. He wanted to play with it, so he ran to it and pounced on it. But the ball of fur was not a toy, it was a hedgehog. The hedgehog rolled up and poked the cat with his sharp spikes.
+
+"Ouch!" the cat said. "You are not a ball of fur, you are a prickly thing. Why did you do that?"
+
+"I did that to protect myself," the hedgehog said. "You scared me when you jumped on me. I thought you wanted to hurt me."
+
+"I did not want to hurt you," the cat said. "I wanted to play with you. You looked like a fun toy."
+
+"I am not a toy," the hedgehog said. "I am a living thing. I have feelings and needs. You should not play with things that are not toys."
+
+"I am sorry," the cat said. "I did not know that. I was curious and silly. Can we be friends?"
+
+The hedgehog thought for a moment. He saw that the cat was sorry and not mean. He decided to give him a chance.
+
+"Okay," the hedgehog said. "We can be friends. But you have to be gentle and careful with me. And I will show you some other things that you can play with."
+
+The cat agreed. He learned to be more respectful and kind to the hedgehog and other animals. He also learned to have fun with leaves, sticks, and balls. The hedgehog and the cat became good friends and had many adventures together. They were happy and safe. And that is what happened.
+Ben and Lily liked to play with their old toys. They had a lot of cars, dolls, and blocks. But their favorite toy was a big train. The train was red and blue and had a loud whistle. It could move on the tracks and pull the wagons.
+
+One day, the train stopped working. Ben and Lily were sad. They tried to push it, but it did not move. They tried to change the batteries, but it did not whistle. They tried to fix it, but they did not know how.
+
+They asked their mom for help. Mom looked at the train and said, "This train is very old. It needs to be restored. That means to make it work again and look nice. I know someone who can do that. He is a toy doctor. He can fix your train, but you have to wait. It might take a long time."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They wanted their train to work again. They gave their train to mom and said, "Please take it to the toy doctor. We will wait for it. We love our train."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Okay, I will take it to the toy doctor. He will do his best to restore your train. But you have to be patient and play with your other toys. And don't forget to drink some water. It is very hot today. You need to stay cool."
+
+Ben and Lily agreed. They drank some water and played with their other toys. They missed their train, but they hoped it would come back soon. They knew the toy doctor would make it work again and look nice. They could not wait to hear its whistle and see it move on the tracks. They loved their train.
+Ben and Mia like to have music. They have a big box with many things that make sounds. They have drums, bells, shakers, horns and more. They like to play with them and make loud music.
+
+One day, they want to have music with their friends. They invite Sam, Lily and Tom to their house. They show them their big box and say, "Do you want to have music with us?"
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" their friends say. They all take something from the box and start to play. They bang, ring, shake, blow and sing. They have fun and make a lot of noise.
+
+But they also make a lot of mess. They leave the things all over the floor. They spill some juice and some snacks. They do not put anything back in the box.
+
+Mia's mom comes in and sees the mess. She is not happy. She says, "What is this? You have music, but you also have messy! You need to clean up now!"
+
+Ben, Mia and their friends say, "Sorry, mom. We will clean up." They help each other to put the things back in the box. They wipe the juice and the snacks. They say, "Thank you for letting us have music."
+
+Mia's mom says, "You are welcome. But next time, please have music and have tidy."
+Sara and Ben like to play near the pond. They see ducks and frogs and fish. Sometimes they throw bread for the ducks. But they are careful not to fall in the water.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben find a big blanket. They think it is fun to cover themselves with it and pretend they are ghosts. They run around and make spooky noises. They scare the ducks and the frogs and the fish.
+
+But they do not see the hole near the pond. Sara steps on it and falls in the water. The blanket covers her head and she cannot see. She is scared and wet and cold. She cries for help.
+
+Ben hears her and runs to the pond. He pulls the blanket off her head and helps her out of the water. He hugs her and says, "I'm sorry, Sara. I'm sorry you fell in the pond. Are you okay?"
+
+Sara nods and says, "I'm okay, Ben. Thank you for saving me. But I'm sorry we scared the ducks and the frogs and the fish. They must be angry with us."
+
+Ben says, "I'm sorry too, Sara. We should not have played with the blanket near the pond. It was not nice. Let's say sorry to the ducks and the frogs and the fish. And let's give them some bread."
+
+Sara and Ben say sorry to the ducks and the frogs and the fish. They throw some bread for them and watch them eat. They see them swim and hop and splash. They smile and say, "They are happy now. And we are happy too. We are friends with the pond."
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to travel with their mom and dad. They had a big car that could fit many bags and toys. Sometimes they went to the beach, sometimes to the mountains, and sometimes to the city.
+
+One day, they went to the city to see a big church. The church had a tall tower with a bell inside. The bell made a loud sound every hour. Lily and Tom wanted to see the bell, so they asked their mom and dad if they could go up the tower.
+
+"OK, but you have to be calm and quiet," their mom said. "The tower has many stairs and people who pray in the church."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and followed their mom and dad up the tower. They saw many windows and paintings on the way. They also saw a clock that showed the time. When they reached the top, they saw the bell. It was huge and shiny. Lily and Tom were amazed.
+
+"Can we touch it?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, you can't," their dad said. "The bell is very old and special. You can only look at it."
+
+Lily and Tom looked at the bell and waited for it to ring. They wondered how loud it would be. They counted the minutes on the clock. When it was almost time, they covered their ears with their hands.
+
+Dong! Dong! Dong! The bell rang three times. It was very loud and made the tower shake. Lily and Tom felt the sound in their chests. They smiled and laughed.
+
+"That was awesome!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, it was!" Tom said.
+
+They hugged their mom and dad and thanked them for taking them to the church. They were happy to travel and see new things. They liked the bell, but they also liked the calm and quiet of the church. They learned something new and had fun.
+Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play with toys and watch videos. Lily has a new video. It is about a big blue fish and a small orange fish. She wants to show it to Sam.
+
+But Sam is sick. He has a cold. He cannot come to Lily's house. He stays in his bed. He feels sad. He misses Lily and her new video.
+
+Lily calls Sam on the phone. She says, "Hi, Sam. How are you?"
+
+Sam says, "Hi, Lily. I am sick. I have a cold. I cannot play with you."
+
+Lily says, "I am sorry, Sam. I miss you. I have a new video. It is about a big blue fish and a small orange fish. Do you want to watch it with me?"
+
+Sam says, "Yes, I do. But I cannot come to your house. Can you bring it to my house?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, I can. I will ask my mom. She can drive me to your house. We can watch the new video together. Maybe it will make you feel better."
+
+Sam says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I will wait for you."
+
+Lily says, "You are welcome, Sam. You are a good friend too. I will see you soon."
+
+Lily and Sam hang up the phone. They are happy. They do not miss each other so much. They are excited to watch the new video. They hope Sam will get well soon.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their dolls. They liked to pretend they were doctors and nurses, and they wore white coats and hats. They had a big bag of bandages, plasters and pretend medicines.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy sitting on a bench. He had a blue uniform with a badge and a hat. He looked mysterious and sad. Lily and Ben wanted to talk to him, but they were shy.
+
+"Who is he?" Lily whispered to Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he is a policeman or a fireman," Ben whispered back.
+
+They decided to be brave and say hello. They walked up to the bench and smiled.
+
+"Hi, we are Lily and Ben. We are playing doctors and nurses. Do you want to play with us?" Lily asked.
+
+The boy looked up and nodded. He smiled too.
+
+"Hi, I'm Sam. I'm not a policeman or a fireman. I'm a sailor. This is my uniform," he said, pointing to his clothes.
+
+He took off his hat and revealed his curly hair.
+
+"I'm new here. I just moved with my mum and dad. They work on a big ship. I miss them a lot," he said.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for Sam. They wanted to make him happy.
+
+"We can be your friends. We live near the park. You can come and play with us anytime. We have lots of toys and games," Ben said.
+
+"Really? That would be nice. Thank you," Sam said.
+
+They gave him a hug and invited him to join their game. They gave him a white coat and a hat too. They pretended he was a doctor who helped people on the ship. They had fun and laughed a lot.
+
+Sam felt less lonely and more hopeful. He was glad he met Lily and Ben. They were kind and friendly. They made him feel welcome. He thought maybe he would like his new home after all.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to climb on the big slide and swing on the ropes. They saw a new thing in the park. It was a big house made of wood. It had a door and windows and a roof.
+
+"Let's go inside!" said Ben. He ran to the door and opened it. He saw a lot of toys and books and pillows inside. He smiled and went in.
+
+"Wait for me!" said Lily. She followed Ben to the door. But she stopped and looked around. She saw a sign on the house. It said: "This house is for the children who are sick. Please do not touch anything. Thank you." She felt worried.
+
+"Ben, come out!" she called. "We should not be here. This house is not for us. It is for the children who are sick. We might make them sicker or break their things."
+
+Ben heard Lily and came out. He looked at the sign and felt sorry. He did not know it was for the children who are sick. He liked the toys and books and pillows, but he did not want to hurt anyone.
+
+"Sorry, Lily," he said. "I did not see the sign. You are right. We should not be here. Let's go back to the slide and the ropes. They are more fun anyway."
+
+Lily nodded and took Ben's hand. They ran back to the slide and the ropes. They saw a lady who worked in the park. She smiled at them and said: "Hello, children. I'm glad you are having fun. Can I recommend something to you?"
+
+"What is it?" asked Ben.
+
+"It is a story time. Every day, at four o'clock, we read stories to the children who are sick in the house. You can join them if you want. They would love to have some friends. You just have to wash your hands and be gentle."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other and nodded. They liked stories. They wanted to make some friends. They said: "Yes, please. We would like to join them."
+
+The lady smiled and said: "Great. Follow me. I have a very nice story for you today. It is about a brave lion and a clever mouse."
+
+Ben and Lily followed the lady to the house. They washed their hands and went inside. They saw the children who were sick. They looked sad and tired. But they smiled when they saw Ben and Lily. They made room for them on the pillows. They listened to the story. They laughed and clapped and asked questions. They felt happy and warm.
+
+Ben and Lily felt happy and warm too. They made some new friends. They learned a new word. They learned to recommend. They learned to share and care. They learned to be kind. They liked the house made of wood. They liked the story time. They liked the park. They liked each other. They had a good day.
+Anna and Ben were twins. They liked to play together and ask questions. They wanted to learn new things every day.
+
+One day, they found a big box in the garage. It was shiny and had many buttons and lights. They wondered what it was.
+
+"Can we open it?" Anna asked.
+
+"Maybe it is a toy," Ben said.
+
+They tried to lift the lid, but it was too heavy. They pushed some buttons, but nothing happened. They looked for a clue, but they could not find one.
+
+They decided to ask their dad. He was in the kitchen, making a cake. He was brilliant at baking.
+
+"Dad, dad, what is this?" Anna and Ben said, holding a picture of the box.
+
+Dad smiled and took the picture. He looked at it carefully.
+
+"That is a very special box," he said. "It is a time machine. It can take you to the past or the future."
+
+"A time machine?" Anna and Ben said. They were amazed.
+
+"Yes, a time machine. But it is not a toy. It is very dangerous. You should never touch it or go inside it. Do you understand?" Dad said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They understood. They did not want to get hurt or lost.
+
+They gave the picture back to Dad and hugged him. They thanked him for telling them.
+
+"Can we help you with the cake?" Anna asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. You are brilliant at helping," Dad said.
+
+They went to the kitchen and helped Dad with the cake. They mixed the batter, poured it into the pan, and put it in the oven. They licked the spoon and smiled.
+
+They were happy. They did not need a time machine. They had each other and their dad. They had everything they needed.
+Sara and Tom were going on a long journey with their mom and dad. They packed their bags with clothes, toys and snacks. They said goodbye to their dog, Max, and got in the car.
+
+"Where are we going?" Sara asked.
+
+"We are going to visit grandma and grandpa," mom said. "They live far away, so we have to drive for a long time."
+
+Sara and Tom liked grandma and grandpa. They always gave them hugs, cookies and stories. They wondered what they would do with them this time.
+
+They drove and drove and drove. They saw trees, fields, cows and houses. They sang songs, played games and ate sandwiches. They also took naps when they got tired.
+
+After many hours, they saw a sign that said "Welcome to Grandma and Grandpa's Town". Sara and Tom woke up and looked out the window. They recognized the big bridge, the red barn and the blue house.
+
+"Look, there they are!" Tom shouted. He pointed to the driveway, where grandma and grandpa were waving and smiling.
+
+Sara and Tom jumped out of the car and ran to hug them. They were so happy to see them.
+
+"Hello, my darlings!" grandma said. "We missed you so much!"
+
+"We missed you too, grandma!" Sara said.
+
+"Come on, let's go inside," grandpa said. "We have a surprise for you."
+
+Sara and Tom followed them, curious and excited. They knew they would have a lot of fun with grandma and grandpa. They were glad they made the long journey.
+Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tiger in the park. The tiger is not real. It is a toy. But it looks very real.
+
+"Wow, look at the tiger!" Tom says. "It is big and orange and black. Can we play with it?"
+
+Lila is scared. She does not like the tiger. She thinks it is scary. She says, "No, Tom, we cannot play with it. It might bite us. Let us go away."
+
+But Tom is not scared. He is brave. He says, "No, Lila, it will not bite us. It is a toy. It is not alive. It is fun. Come on, let us play with it."
+
+Tom runs to the tiger. He touches it. He hugs it. He talks to it. He says, "Hello, tiger. You are nice. You are my friend. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The tiger does not say anything. It does not move. It does not bite. It is a toy. Tom is happy. He smiles.
+
+Lila sees Tom. She sees that the tiger is not scary. It is a toy. She is not scared anymore. She is curious. She says, "Tom, can I play with you and the tiger?"
+
+Tom says, "Yes, Lila, you can. Come here. The tiger is nice. It is our friend. We can play with it."
+
+Lila runs to Tom and the tiger. She touches it. She hugs it. She talks to it. She says, "Hello, tiger. You are nice. You are our friend. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The tiger does not say anything. It does not move. It does not bite. It is a toy. Lila is happy. She smiles.
+
+Tom and Lila play with the tiger. They have fun. They laugh. They are happy. The tiger is happy too. It is a toy. It is their friend. They play until the sun goes down. Then they say goodbye to the tiger. They say, "Bye, tiger. Thank you for playing with us. You are nice. You are our friend. We will come back tomorrow."
+
+They go home with their moms. They are happy. They had a good day. They played with the tiger. The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Ben was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then opened her eyes. She looked around for Ben, but she could not see him. Where did he go?
+
+She walked around the park, looking behind trees and bushes and benches. She called out, "Ben, where are you? I can't find you!" But Ben did not answer. He was hiding in a big cardboard box near the slide. He had found it in the trash and thought it was a good place to hide. He was very quiet and still, hoping Lily would not find him.
+
+But then, a big dog came running to the box. It smelled something inside and started to bark and scratch at it. Ben was scared of the dog and wanted to get out of the box. He pushed the flap open and tried to run away. But the dog was faster and chased him. Ben shouted, "Help, help, a dog is after me!"
+
+Lily heard Ben's voice and saw him running from the dog. She ran to him and grabbed his hand. She saw a clear path to the gate and pulled him along. "Come on, Ben, let's escape!" she said. They ran to the gate and got out of the park. The dog stopped at the gate and barked, but could not follow them.
+
+Lily and Ben were safe and happy. They hugged each other and laughed. "That was a close one!" Ben said. "You saved me, Lily, thank you!" Lily smiled and said, "You're welcome, Ben. But you know what? You lose the game. I found you!" Ben nodded and said, "You're right, Lily. You win. You're the best seeker ever!" They decided to play another game, but this time, they avoided the box and the dog.
+Anna likes school. She likes to play with her friends, to draw with crayons, and to sing songs. But today, school is different. Today, school is quiet.
+
+"Shh, shh, shh," says the teacher. "We have to be quiet today. There is a big test in the next room. We have to listen to the teacher and not make noise."
+
+Anna does not like to be quiet. She wants to talk to her friends, to draw with loud colors, and to sing loud songs. She does not want to listen to the teacher. She wants to have fun.
+
+She looks at her friend Ben. Ben looks bored too. He has a big smile on his face. He has an idea. He whispers to Anna.
+
+"Let's play a game. Let's see who can make the loudest noise. I bet I can make a louder noise than you."
+
+Anna thinks that is a fun game. She nods her head. She does not listen to the teacher. She does not care about the test. She only cares about the game.
+
+She opens her mouth and makes a big noise. She sounds like a lion. "Roar, roar, roar!"
+
+Ben opens his mouth and makes a bigger noise. He sounds like a train. "Choo, choo, choo!"
+
+Anna and Ben make the loudest noises they can. They laugh and giggle. They think they are very funny.
+
+But the teacher does not think they are funny. The teacher is angry. The teacher hears the noises. The teacher comes to Anna and Ben.
+
+"Anna, Ben, what are you doing? You are not listening to me. You are not being quiet. You are being rude. You are disturbing the test. You are in trouble. Go to the corner and sit down. No more games. No more noises. No more fun."
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They are sorry. They did not mean to be rude. They did not mean to disturb the test. They only meant to have fun.
+
+They go to the corner and sit down. They are quiet. They listen to the teacher. They do not play games. They do not make noises. They do not have fun.
+
+They wish they had listened to the teacher. They wish they had been quiet. They wish they had not played the game. They wish they had not made the noises.
+
+They learn a lesson. They learn that school is not always fun. They learn that sometimes they have to be quiet. They learn that sometimes they have to listen. They learn that sometimes they have to respect others. They learn that sometimes they have to wait.
+Anna and Ben moved to a new house with Mom and Dad. They had many boxes to unpack. Anna liked to unpack her toys and books. Ben liked to unpack his cars and trains. Mom and Dad unpacked the kitchen and the bedroom.
+
+One day, Mom said, "Anna and Ben, come and help me unpack the vegetable box. We can make a yummy soup for dinner." Anna and Ben ran to the kitchen. They saw a big box on the table. Mom opened it and took out some vegetables. She gave them to Anna and Ben.
+
+Anna got a carrot. She liked carrots. They were orange and crunchy. She peeled it with a peeler. Ben got a potato. He liked potatoes. They were brown and soft. He washed it with water. Mom got a onion. She did not like onions. They were white and smelly. They made her cry. She chopped it with a knife.
+
+But then, Mom took out something scary. It was green and spiky. It had a long stem and a round head. It looked like a monster. Anna and Ben screamed. "What is that?" they asked. Mom smiled. "It is a broccoli," she said. "It is a vegetable. It is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy."
+
+Anna and Ben did not believe her. They did not want to eat a broccoli. They thought it would bite them. They hid behind the table. Mom laughed. "Don't be afraid," she said. "It is not a monster. It is a friend. It is delicious. You can try a little bit. You might like it." She cut a small piece and put it on a plate. She gave it to Anna and Ben.
+
+Anna and Ben looked at the broccoli. They looked at Mom. They looked at each other. They were curious. They took a bite. They chewed. They swallowed. They smiled. It was not scary. It was not bad. It was good. They liked it. They asked for more. Mom was happy. She gave them more. They ate the broccoli. They helped Mom make the soup. They had a yummy dinner. They were not afraid of vegetables anymore. They were brave and smart. They liked to unpack new things. They liked their new house.
+Lila and Ben are twins. They like to travel with Mom and Dad. They go to many places in the car. They see trees, houses, animals, and people.
+
+One day, they travel to a big park. There are swings, slides, and a pond. Lila and Ben want to play. Mom and Dad say, "Stay on this side of the pond. Do not go to the other side. It is not safe."
+
+Lila and Ben play on the swings and the slides. They have fun. But they are also nosy. They want to see what is on the other side of the pond. They see ducks, frogs, and flowers. They think it looks nice.
+
+They wait until Mom and Dad are not looking. Then they run to the other side of the pond. They want to touch the ducks, the frogs, and the flowers. But they do not know that the pond is deep and muddy. They slip and fall into the water. They get wet and dirty. They cry for help.
+
+Mom and Dad hear them and run to the other side of the pond. They are angry and worried. They pull Lila and Ben out of the water. They say, "Why did you not listen to us? You could have been hurt. You are very nosy and naughty."
+
+Lila and Ben are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom and Dad. We just wanted to see the other side. We will not do it again."
+
+Mom and Dad hug them and say, "We love you, Lila and Ben. But you have to follow the rules. They are for your safety. Now let's go home and get you clean and dry."
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They jog and run and laugh. They see a big house near the park. The house is rich. It has many windows and doors and flowers.
+
+"Who lives in the rich house?" Lily asks Tom.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a king or a queen," Tom says.
+
+They go closer to the house. They see a big wall around the house. The wall has a sign. The sign says "Keep Out".
+
+"Let's go inside the wall," Lily says. "Maybe we can see the king or the queen."
+
+"No, we can't," Tom says. "The sign says we can't. It is bad to go inside the wall."
+
+But Lily does not listen. She climbs over the wall. Tom follows her. He is scared.
+
+They see a big garden inside the wall. The garden has many toys and bikes and balls. Lily and Tom are happy. They play with the toys and bikes and balls. They forget about the sign.
+
+But then they hear a loud voice. The voice is angry.
+
+"Hey, you! What are you doing in my garden? You are not allowed here! You are destroying my things!"
+
+Lily and Tom look up. They see a man. The man is big and mean. He is the owner of the rich house. He is not a king or a queen. He is mad.
+
+Lily and Tom are scared. They drop the toys and bikes and balls. They run to the wall. They climb over the wall. They run to the park. They do not look back.
+
+They learn a lesson. They do not go near the rich house again. They do not destroy things that are not theirs. They listen to signs. They are good friends.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two coal eyes. They were very happy.
+
+But then they saw a hole in the snow. It was a mole hole. A mole was peeking out of it. He looked angry.
+
+"Go away!" the mole said. "This is my home. You are making too much noise. You are ruining my sleep."
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They did not want to make the mole mad. They did not know what he could do.
+
+"Sorry, Mr. Mole," Lily said. "We did not mean to bother you. We just wanted to have fun."
+
+"Well, you should have fun somewhere else," the mole said. "And be careful. The snow is icy. You could slip and fall. You could hurt yourself."
+
+The mole was trying to warn them. He did not want them to get hurt. He was not so mean after all.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Mole," Tom said. "We will be careful. And we will leave you alone. We hope you have a good sleep."
+
+Lily and Tom took their snowman and moved to another spot. They played some more, but they were quieter. They did not want to wake up the mole again. They also watched their steps. They did not want to slip on the icy snow. They had fun, but they also listened to the mole's warning. They were smart.
+Lily and Ben were playing dress-up in the attic. They found a big box of old clothes and hats and shoes. They tried on different things and pretended to be different people.
+
+Lily put on a long red dress and a shiny necklace. She felt like a princess. She said to Ben, "Look at me, Ben. I am a princess. Do you want to be my prince?"
+
+Ben nodded and looked for something to wear. He found a blue jacket and a black hat. He put them on and said, "I am a prince. I have a surprise for you, princess."
+
+He walked over to Lily and smiled. He said, "Close your eyes, princess. I have a gift for you." Lily closed her eyes and waited. She heard Ben unzip something. She wondered what it was.
+
+Ben said, "Open your eyes, princess. I reveal my gift to you." Lily opened her eyes and gasped. Ben was holding a big stuffed bear with a bow. He said, "This is for you, princess. I found it in the box. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily smiled and hugged the bear. She said, "I love it, prince. Thank you. You are very polite and kind. Can I give you a kiss?" Ben nodded and leaned in. Lily kissed him on the cheek and said, "You are my prince. I am your princess. We are happy." They hugged and laughed and played some more.
+Lily was thirsty. She saw a bottle on the table. It was red and shiny. She wanted to drink from it. But the bottle was too high for her. She tried to reach it with her hand. She could not. She tried to jump. She could not. She tried to climb on a chair. She could not. She felt sad.
+
+She saw her big brother Tom. He was tall and strong. He could get the bottle for her. She asked him, "Tom, can you please get me the bottle? I want to drink."
+
+Tom looked at the bottle. He smiled. He said, "That is not a bottle for drinking, Lily. That is a bottle for blowing bubbles. Look, I will show you." He took the bottle and opened it. He dipped a wand in the liquid. He blew through the wand. Bubbles came out. They were round and shiny. They floated in the air. Lily liked the bubbles. She clapped her hands. She said, "Wow, that is fun! Can I try?"
+
+Tom said, "Sure, you can try. But be careful. Do not drink the liquid. It is not good for you. It will make you sick. And do not spill it. It will make a mess." He gave the bottle and the wand to Lily. He said, "Here you go. Blow gently."
+
+Lily took the bottle and the wand. She was excited. She wanted to blow bubbles too. She dipped the wand in the liquid. She blew through the wand. But she blew too hard. The liquid splashed on her face. It got in her eyes and mouth. It tasted bad. It stung. She cried. She said, "Ow, ow, ow! It hurts! It hurts!"
+
+Tom heard her cry. He ran to her. He said, "Oh no, Lily! I'm sorry! Are you okay?" He took the bottle and the wand from her. He wiped her face with a towel. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You blew too hard. You have to blow gently. Here, let me help you." He blew some bubbles for her. He said, "See, like this. Do you want to try again?"
+
+Lily looked at the bubbles. She still liked them. But she was scared of the liquid. She said, "No, thank you, Tom. I don't want to try again. I don't like the bottle. I don't like the liquid. I want to drink water. Can you please get me water?"
+
+Tom said, "Of course, Lily. I will get you water. Come on, let's go to the kitchen. I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to make you cry. I wanted to make you happy. I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily said, "I love you too, Tom. Thank you for helping me. But I'm embarrassed. I made a mess. I'm sorry, Tom."
+
+Tom said, "Don't be embarrassed, Lily. It's okay. Everyone makes mistakes. It's how we learn. And don't worry about the mess. We will clean it up together. Come on, let's go get some water. And maybe some cookies too. Do you like cookies?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I like cookies. Cookies are yummy. Can we share them?"
+
+Tom said, "Sure, we can share them. You are my little sister. And I am your big brother. We are a team. We share everything. Come on, let's go."
+
+They held hands and walked to the kitchen. They got some water and some cookies. They drank and ate. They smiled and hugged. They were happy. They forgot about the bottle and the liquid. They only remembered the bubbles and the love.
+Lily and Max were at the park with their dad. It was a sunny day, so they wore sunglasses to protect their eyes. Their dad was bald, so he wore a hat to protect his head.
+
+They enjoyed playing on the swings, the slide, and the sandbox. They also enjoyed watching the birds, the squirrels, and the flowers. They laughed and shouted and had fun.
+
+"Look, dad, I can swing very high!" Lily said.
+
+"Be careful, Lily, don't fall!" dad said.
+
+"Look, dad, I can make a castle in the sand!" Max said.
+
+"That's very good, Max, you are very creative!" dad said.
+
+They played until they were tired and hungry. Then they had a picnic under a big tree. They ate sandwiches, fruits, and cookies. They drank water and juice. They thanked their dad for the yummy food.
+
+They enjoyed spending time with their dad. They hugged him and told him they loved him. He hugged them back and told them he loved them too. They were a happy family.
+Lily was playing in the garden with her dog, Spot. She liked to dig holes and find worms and rocks. Spot liked to chase butterflies and roll in the grass. They were having a lot of fun, but they also got very dirty.
+
+When Lily's mom called her for lunch, she told her to wash her hands and change her shirt. Lily did not want to stop playing, but she was hungry. She ran to the bathroom and turned on the faucet. She tried to wash her hands, but the water was too hot. She turned it off and on again, but it was still too hot. She struggled to find the right temperature.
+
+"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!" she cried.
+
+"What's wrong, Lily?" her mom asked, coming to the bathroom.
+
+"The water is too hot, Mommy. It hurts my hands," Lily said, showing her mom her red hands.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. Let me help you. Here, use this cold water. It will make your hands feel better," her mom said, filling a bowl with cold water and putting Lily's hands in it.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy. That feels nice," Lily said, smiling.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. Now, let's change your shirt. You can't wear that dirty shirt to the table. It has mud and grass stains on it," her mom said, taking off Lily's shirt and giving her a clean one.
+
+"But I like this shirt, Mommy. It's my favorite shirt. It has a rainbow and a unicorn on it," Lily said, holding on to her dirty shirt.
+
+"I know, Lily. But you can wear it again after we wash it. It will be clean and bright again. Don't you want to wear this shirt? It has a flower and a bee on it. It's very pretty," her mom said, showing her the clean shirt.
+
+Lily looked at the clean shirt. She liked the flower and the bee, but she liked the rainbow and the unicorn more. She did not want to let go of her dirty shirt.
+
+"No, Mommy. I want to wear this shirt. It's my favorite shirt," she said, shaking her head.
+
+"Lily, please. You have to wear a clean shirt for lunch. It's not polite to wear a dirty shirt. And it's not good for your skin. It can make you itchy and rashy," her mom said, trying to persuade her.
+
+Lily thought about it. She did not want to be itchy and rashy. She did not want to be rude. She wanted to be a good girl. She sighed and gave her mom her dirty shirt.
+
+"Okay, Mommy. I will wear the clean shirt. But can I wear my favorite shirt later?" she asked.
+
+"Of course, Lily. You can wear your favorite shirt later, after we wash it and dry it. Now, let's go to the lunch. I made your favorite sandwich. It has peanut butter and jelly on it," her mom said, putting the clean shirt on Lily and hugging her.
+
+"Yay! I love peanut butter and jelly. Thank you, Mommy. You're the best," Lily said, hugging her mom back.
+
+They went to the lunch and ate their sandwiches. Lily was happy and clean. She did not struggle anymore. She was a good girl.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big sign. It says: Jump Contest. Win a Prize!
+
+Lily and Ben want to join the contest. They love to jump. They run to the sign and sign their names.
+
+The contest starts. Lily and Ben jump as high as they can. They jump over ropes, hoops, and cones. They have fun. They see other kids jump too. Some jump higher, some jump lower.
+
+The contest ends. Lily and Ben wait for the results. They hope they win a prize. They hear a voice. It says: The winners are...Lily and Ben!
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They clap and cheer. They go to the table and get their prize. It is a big box. They open it. Inside, they find two jars. One is red, one is green. They have labels. They say: Spicy Sauce.
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They do not like spicy sauce. They make a face. They say: Yuck!
+
+They see a man. He is the judge. He smiles and says: Congratulations! You won the spicy sauce! Do you like it?
+
+Lily and Ben shake their heads. They say: No, thank you. We do not like spicy sauce. It is too hot. It hurts our mouths.
+
+The man looks surprised. He says: Oh, I am sorry. I thought you would like it. It is a special prize. Do you want to trade it for something else?
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They say: Yes, please. Do you have something else?
+
+The man thinks. He says: Hmm, let me see. I have some stickers, some candy, some books, some toys. What do you like?
+
+Lily and Ben look at the man's things. They see many things they like. They say: We like stickers, candy, books, and toys. Can we have some of each?
+
+The man laughs. He says: Sure, why not? You are very good jumpers. You deserve a good prize. Here you go. Enjoy!
+
+Lily and Ben thank the man. They take their new prizes. They are very happy. They say: This is much better than spicy sauce. We like these prizes. Thank you!
+
+They go back to the park. They play with their stickers, candy, books, and toys. They share with each other. They have fun. They are glad they joined the jump contest. They are glad they won a prize. They are glad they are friends.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play on the beach. They liked to build sand castles, dig holes, and splash in the water. They were also very competitive. They always wanted to be the best at everything.
+
+One day, they saw a big jellyfish on the shore. It was pink and shiny and had long tentacles. Sara and Ben both wanted to touch it. They ran towards it, but Sara got there first. She reached out her hand and poked the jellyfish.
+
+"Ow!" she cried. "It stung me!"
+
+Ben laughed. He thought he was smarter than Sara. He grabbed a stick and tried to lift the jellyfish with it. He wanted to show Sara that he was braver than her.
+
+But the jellyfish was heavy and slippery. Ben struggled to hold it with the stick. He lost his balance and fell on the sand. The jellyfish landed on his head and wrapped its tentacles around his hair.
+
+"Help!" he screamed. "It's on me!"
+
+Sara stopped crying and ran to help Ben. She pulled the jellyfish off his head and threw it back into the water. She hugged Ben and said, "I'm sorry I laughed at you. Are you okay?"
+
+Ben nodded and said, "I'm sorry I teased you. Are you okay?"
+
+They both said, "I love you."
+
+They learned that being competitive was not as important as being kind. They decided to play together and share their toys. They had more fun that way. They also learned to stay away from jellyfish. They were not nice to touch.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They live in a big city with many cars and people. They like to play in the park near their home. There is a big tree in the park. Tom and Sue like to climb the tree and look at the city.
+
+One day, Tom and Sue find a long and thick rope in the park. They have an idea. They want to tie the rope to the tree and swing like monkeys. They think it will be fun.
+
+They take the rope to the tree and look for a strong branch. Tom is good at tying. He ties one end of the rope to the branch. He makes a big knot. He pulls the rope to test it. It is tight and safe.
+
+"Look, Sue, I tied the rope to the tree. Now we can swing!" Tom says.
+
+"Wow, Tom, you are so smart. Let me try!" Sue says.
+
+Sue takes the other end of the rope and makes a loop. She puts her foot in the loop and holds the rope with her hands. She runs and jumps. The rope swings her high in the air. She feels the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She laughs and shouts.
+
+"Yay, this is so fun! Thank you, Tom, for tying the rope!" Sue says.
+
+Tom smiles and waits for his turn. He is happy to share the rope with Sue. They swing and play until it is time to go home. They untie the rope and put it back where they found it. They wave goodbye to the tree and the city. They walk home holding hands. They are good friends.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys in the yard. One day, they find a big board near the fence. They want to use it for their games.
+
+"Let's make a seesaw with the board," Tim says. "We can put it on a rock and take turns to go up and down."
+
+"OK," Sam says. "But who will go first?"
+
+They look at the board. It is long and wide. They think it is heavy.
+
+"Maybe we should weigh the board first," Tim says. "Then we can know who is lighter and who is heavier."
+
+"How do we weigh the board?" Sam asks.
+
+Tim has an idea. He runs to the shed and gets a scale. He puts it on the ground and puts one end of the board on it. He reads the number on the scale.
+
+"The board weighs twenty pounds," he says.
+
+"Wow, that's a lot," Sam says.
+
+They move the scale to the other end of the board and do the same thing. They read the number again.
+
+"The board weighs twenty pounds on this end, too," Tim says.
+
+"That's strange," Sam says. "How can both ends weigh the same?"
+
+They scratch their heads. They don't understand.
+
+Then they see their dad coming from the house. He sees them with the board and the scale.
+
+"Hi, boys," he says. "What are you doing?"
+
+"We are trying to weigh the board," Tim says. "But it weighs the same on both ends. How can that be?"
+
+Dad smiles. He knows why.
+
+"That's because the board is balanced," he says. "It has the same amount of wood on both sides. So it doesn't matter where you put the scale, it will show the same weight."
+
+"Wow, that's cool," Tim says.
+
+"That's clever," Sam says.
+
+Dad is proud of his sons. He thinks they are smart and curious. He also thinks they are modest. They don't brag or boast. They just want to learn and have fun.
+
+"Do you want to make a seesaw with the board?" he asks.
+
+"Yes, please," Tim and Sam say.
+
+Dad helps them to find a rock and set up the board. He makes sure it is safe and stable. Then he lets them play on the seesaw. They take turns to go up and down. They laugh and giggle. They have a great time.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play outside in the sun. But sometimes the sun is too hot and they feel thirsty and tired. They look for a place to rest and drink some water.
+
+They see a big tree with many green leaves. The tree makes a lot of shade under it. They run to the tree and sit down on the grass. They feel cool and happy.
+
+"Look, Tom, what is that?" Sue says, pointing to something on the tree. Tom looks and sees a small bird with bright feathers. The bird is singing a sweet song.
+
+"It is a bird, Sue. A mighty bird. It can fly and sing and make nests. Do you like the bird?" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, I like the bird. It is pretty and friendly. Can we play with the bird?" Sue says.
+
+They get up and try to get closer to the bird. But the bird is shy and flies away to another tree. Tom and Sue follow the bird, but they cannot catch it. The bird is too fast and smart.
+
+They hear the bird laughing and saying, "You cannot play with me. I am a mighty bird. I can fly and sing and make nests. You are only children. You cannot do what I can do."
+
+Tom and Sue feel sad and angry. They stop chasing the bird and go back to the first tree. They sit down on the grass and drink some water. They do not want to play with the bird anymore.
+
+They look at each other and smile. They say, "We are children. We can run and laugh and make friends. We do not need a mighty bird. We have each other. We are happy." They hug and start to play again. They forget about the bird and enjoy the shade and the sun.
+Poppy was a dog who loved to play. She liked to run, jump, and chase balls. She also liked to dig holes in the garden and chew on shoes. Poppy was not very obedient. She did not listen to her owner, who was a girl named Lily.
+
+Lily loved Poppy, but she did not like when Poppy was naughty. She tried to teach Poppy to sit, stay, and come, but Poppy did not care. She only wanted to have fun. Lily got angry and sad. She said to Poppy, "Why are you so bad? I hate when you do not obey me. You make me cry."
+
+One day, Lily and Poppy went to the park. There were many other dogs and people there. Poppy saw a big, fluffy dog and wanted to play with it. She ran away from Lily and barked at the dog. The dog did not like Poppy. It growled and snapped at her. Poppy was scared and hurt. She ran back to Lily and whimpered.
+
+Lily saw what happened and hugged Poppy. She said, "I'm sorry, Poppy. I don't hate you. I love you. You are my best friend. But you have to be more obedient. It is for your own good. You could get in trouble or get hurt if you do not listen to me. Do you understand?"
+
+Poppy licked Lily's face and wagged her tail. She understood. She wanted to be a good dog and make Lily happy. She decided to try harder to obey Lily. She also decided to be more careful with other dogs. She learned that not all dogs wanted to play with her. She learned that obedience was important. She learned that Lily's love was stronger than her hate.
+Sara and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make pretend stories with their dolls and cars. They were having fun until they heard a loud noise outside. It was a storm. The wind was blowing hard and the rain was falling fast. The sky was dark and scary.
+
+Sara and Tom ran to the window and looked outside. They saw the trees shaking and the water splashing. They felt afraid. They wanted their mom and dad to come home soon. They hugged each other and said, "I don't like the storm. It is terrible."
+
+Then they heard another loud noise. It was a thunder. It sounded like a big drum. Sara and Tom jumped and screamed. They ran to the couch and hid under a blanket. They cried and cried. They wished the storm would go away.
+
+Their mom and dad came home a few minutes later. They saw Sara and Tom under the blanket. They knew they were scared. They went to the couch and lifted the blanket. They smiled and said, "Don't cry, Sara and Tom. We are here. The storm will be over soon. It is just nature making noise. It can't hurt you."
+
+Sara and Tom saw their mom and dad. They felt happy and safe. They stopped crying and hugged them. They said, "We love you, mom and dad. Thank you for coming home. Can we stay with you until the storm is over?"
+
+Their mom and dad said, "Of course, Sara and Tom. You can stay with us. We love you too. Let's watch a movie and have some snacks. The storm will be over soon. And then we can play with your toys again."
+
+Sara and Tom smiled and nodded. They followed their mom and dad to the TV. They watched a funny movie and had some popcorn. They forgot about the storm. They felt warm and cozy. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily liked to play with their toy automobiles. They had many different kinds and colors of automobiles. They liked to make them go fast and make loud noises.
+
+One day, they decided to play a game. They wanted to see who could match the automobiles by their colors. Ben said, "I can match the automobiles better than you. I am very wise." Lily said, "No, I can match the automobiles better than you. I am very wise, too."
+
+They started to match the automobiles. Ben matched the red automobiles with the red automobiles. Lily matched the blue automobiles with the blue automobiles. They matched the yellow automobiles, the green automobiles, and the white automobiles.
+
+But then, they saw a problem. There was one automobile left. It was purple. There was no other purple automobile to match it with. Ben and Lily looked at each other. They did not know what to do.
+
+Then, they had an idea. They decided to share the purple automobile. They said, "We can both play with the purple automobile. It is a special automobile. It does not need to match with another automobile. We are both wise and kind." They smiled and hugged. They played with the purple automobile and had fun.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play hide and seek. Sara is good at hiding. Tom is good at finding. One day, they play in the garden. Sara runs behind a big tree. Tom counts to ten.
+
+"Ready or not, here I come!" Tom says. He looks around the garden. He sees a fat cat on the fence. He sees a red ball on the grass. He sees a yellow flower in the pot. But he does not see Sara.
+
+"Where are you, Sara?" Tom calls. He walks around the tree. He does not see Sara. He walks to the other side of the tree. He still does not see Sara. He thinks Sara is very good at hiding.
+
+Sara is hiding behind the tree. She is very quiet. She does not want Tom to find her. She wants to win the game. She peeks from behind the tree. She sees Tom looking for her. She smiles. She thinks Tom is funny.
+
+"Boo!" Sara says. She jumps out from behind the tree. She scares Tom. Tom is surprised. He laughs. Sara laughs too.
+
+"You found me!" Sara says.
+
+"You are very good at hiding!" Tom says.
+
+"You are very good at finding!" Sara says.
+
+They hug each other. They are happy. They love to play hide and seek. They love each other. It is a good time.
+Lila and Ben are squirrels. They like to find nuts and hide them for winter. One day, they find a big nut under a tree. They are very happy.
+
+"Look, Lila, a big nut!" Ben says. "We can share it later."
+
+"Yes, Ben, it is a big nut. But we have to mark it first. So no one else takes it," Lila says.
+
+They look around for something to mark the nut with. They see a small stick. Lila picks it up and scratches the nut with it. She makes a line and a dot.
+
+"There, now it is our nut. The line and the dot are our mark," Lila says.
+
+"Good idea, Lila. Now let's go find more nuts," Ben says.
+
+They run away to look for more nuts. They do not see a big bird that is watching them. The bird has sharp eyes and a sharp beak. It likes to eat nuts too.
+
+The bird flies down and grabs the nut with its claws. It does not care about the line and the dot. It thinks they are just dirt. It flies away with the nut.
+
+Lila and Ben come back later. They want to eat the big nut. But they do not see it. They only see the small stick.
+
+"Where is our nut, Lila?" Ben asks.
+
+"I don't know, Ben. Someone took it. Maybe another squirrel. Or a mouse. Or a rat," Lila says.
+
+They are very sad. They look for their mark, but they do not see it. The bird has eaten it too.
+
+"Next time, we have to find a better mark. A mark that no one can eat or erase," Lila says.
+
+"Yes, Lila. A better mark. And a better hiding place," Ben says.
+
+They hug each other and go to look for another nut. They hope to find a bigger and safer one.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had a pink dress that Anna liked very much. Anna wanted to have a dress like Lily's.
+
+One day, Anna saw a dress in the shop window that looked like Lily's dress. It was pink and shiny and had flowers on it. Anna asked her mom if she could have the dress.
+
+"Maybe for your birthday, Anna," her mom said. "But you have to be a good girl and help me at home. You can't be lazy and watch TV all day."
+
+Anna nodded. She wanted to gain the dress very much. She helped her mom with the dishes, the laundry, and the dusting. She did not watch TV or play with her dolls. She worked hard every day.
+
+On her birthday, Anna woke up and saw a big box on her bed. She opened it and saw the dress. It was the same dress as in the shop window. Anna was very happy. She put on the dress and ran to show her mom.
+
+"Mom, look! I have the dress! Thank you, thank you!" Anna said.
+
+"You're welcome, Anna," her mom said. "You earned it. You were not lazy and you helped me a lot. I'm proud of you."
+
+Anna hugged her mom and smiled. She felt like a princess. She took Lily and went to play with her friends. They all liked her dress and said she was very pretty. Anna was very happy. She loved her dress and her mom.
+Lila and Tom were friends who liked to play in the farm. They ran and jumped and laughed among the animals and the plants. One day, they saw a big field of wheat that was yellow and soft. They wanted to touch it and make shapes with it.
+
+"Can we go to the wheat field?" Lila asked Tom.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe the farmer will be angry if we go there."
+
+"Let's ask him," Lila said. "Maybe he will let us play if we are nice and careful."
+
+They ran to the farmer, who was sitting on a chair near the barn. He was wearing a hat and a plaid shirt. He looked tired and bored.
+
+"Hello, farmer," Lila said. "We are Lila and Tom. We like your farm. Can we play in the wheat field?"
+
+The farmer looked at them and shrugged. He did not say anything. He just moved his shoulders up and down.
+
+"What does that mean?" Tom whispered to Lila.
+
+"I think it means he does not care," Lila whispered back. "Maybe he has too much wheat and he does not need it all."
+
+"Or maybe he is waiting for someone to buy it," Tom said.
+
+"Or maybe he is just sleepy," Lila said.
+
+They decided to take the farmer's shrug as a yes. They thanked him and ran to the wheat field. They had fun playing there. They made wheat crowns and wheat dolls and wheat animals. They pretended they were kings and queens and farmers and explorers. They were happy and creative.
+
+The farmer watched them from his chair. He smiled a little. He was glad they were having fun. He had more wheat than he could sell. He had no one to share it with. He was lonely and bored. He wished he had someone to play with. He wished he had a friend.
+Tom had a big hole in his blue ball. He was sad because he could not play with it. He asked his mom to fix it for him. His mom said she would try, but she needed a needle and some thread.
+
+She went to the closet and looked for a needle and some thread. She found them and came back to Tom. She said, "Tom, I need you to be very still and quiet while I fix your ball. The needle is sharp and can hurt you if you touch it. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I will be still and quiet." He watched his mom as she put the thread through the needle and then through the hole in his ball. She made small stitches to close the hole. Then she cut the thread and tied a knot.
+
+She said, "There, all done. Now we need to fill your ball with air. Do you know where the pump is?"
+
+Tom smiled and said, "Yes, mom. It is in the garage. I will get it for you." He ran to the garage and came back with the pump. He gave it to his mom. She put the nozzle in the ball and started to pump. The ball got bigger and bigger as she filled it with air.
+
+Tom clapped and said, "Thank you, mom. You fixed my ball. Can I play with it now?"
+
+His mom said, "Yes, you can. But be careful not to pop it again. And don't play near the rose bushes. They have thorns that can make holes in your ball."
+
+Tom said, "OK, mom. I will be careful." He hugged his mom and took his ball. He went outside and bounced it on the grass. He was happy again.
+
+But then he saw his sister, Lily. She was playing with her doll. She saw Tom and his ball. She wanted to play with it too. She ran to Tom and said, "Tom, give me your ball. I want to play with it."
+
+Tom said, "No, Lily. This is my ball. Mom fixed it for me. You have your doll. Go play with it."
+
+Lily was angry. She did not like to share. She tried to grab the ball from Tom. Tom pulled it back. They fought over the ball. They yelled and pushed each other.
+
+Their mom heard them and came outside. She saw them fighting. She was angry too. She said, "Stop it, both of you. You are not being nice. You are not sharing. You are hurting each other. Give me the ball."
+
+She took the ball from them and said, "You are both in time out. You have to sit on the porch and think about what you did. You can't play with the ball or the doll until you say sorry to each other and to me."
+
+Tom and Lily were sad and ashamed. They sat on the porch and looked at the ground. They did not talk to each other. They wished they had been nice and shared. They wished they had not made their mom angry. They wished they could play with the ball and the doll again.
+Lily and Max wanted to make a cake for Mom's birthday. They found a box of cake mix in the pantry and a bowl and a spoon in the drawer. They poured the mix into the bowl and added some water and oil. They stirred and stirred until the batter was smooth.
+
+"Can I lick the spoon?" Max asked.
+
+"OK, but only a little," Lily said. "We need to save some batter for the cake."
+
+They poured the batter into a round pan and put it in the oven. They set the timer for 25 minutes and waited. They smelled the cake baking and it made them hungry.
+
+"Let's look for some frosting in the freezer," Lily suggested.
+
+They opened the freezer and saw a tub of chocolate frosting. They took it out and opened the lid. The frosting was hard and cold.
+
+"How can we make it soft and warm?" Max wondered.
+
+"Maybe we can put it in the microwave," Lily said.
+
+They put the tub in the microwave and pressed some buttons. They heard a beep and took the tub out. The frosting was soft and warm, but it was also runny and bubbly.
+
+"Oh no, we spoiled the frosting!" Lily cried.
+
+"What do we do now?" Max asked.
+
+They heard another beep from the oven. The cake was done. They took it out and put it on a rack. It looked golden and fluffy.
+
+"Maybe we can use something else for the frosting," Lily said. "How about some jam or honey or sprinkles?"
+
+They looked in the fridge and the cupboard and found some jam and sprinkles. They spread the jam over the cake and sprinkled the sprinkles on top. It looked colorful and yummy.
+
+"Mom will love it!" Max said.
+
+They put the cake on a plate and wrote "Happy Birthday Mom" with a crayon on a piece of paper. They hid the cake and the paper behind the couch and waited for Mom to come home. They hoped she would not see the spoiled frosting in the microwave.
+Tom and Anna like to play catch with their ball. They throw the ball to each other and try to catch it with their hands. Sometimes they miss and the ball falls on the grass. Then they run to get it and start again.
+
+One day, they decide to play catch in the park. They find a big space with no other people and start to throw the ball. They have fun and laugh a lot. They are good at catch and do not miss often.
+
+But then, something happens. Tom throws the ball very high and far. Anna runs to catch it, but she does not see a big tree in front of her. She hits the tree with her head and falls down. The ball bounces away.
+
+Tom sees Anna fall and runs to her. He is scared and worried. He says, "Anna, are you okay? I am sorry. I did not mean to throw the ball so high and far."
+
+Anna does not answer. She does not move. She does not make any sound. There is silence in the park.
+
+Tom does not know what to do. He feels sad and sorry. He wishes he could help Anna. He wishes they could play catch again.
+
+Then, he hears a voice. It is Anna. She says, "Tom, I am okay. It was just a bump. It hurts a little, but I will be fine."
+
+Tom is happy and relieved. He says, "Anna, I am glad you are okay. You are brave and strong. You are my best friend."
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Tom, you are my best friend too. You are kind and caring. You are good at catch. You are successful."
+
+They hug each other and say sorry. They pick up the ball and walk to a bench. They sit and rest for a while. They talk and laugh again. They are happy. They still like to play catch, but they are more careful now. They watch out for trees and other things. They enjoy the park and each other. They are friends.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Today is a mild day. The sun is warm, but not hot. The wind is soft, but not cold.
+
+Sara and Ben see a zigzag path in the park. It goes up and down and left and right. They think it looks fun. They decide to skip on the zigzag path.
+
+"Let's skip on the zigzag path!" Sara says.
+
+"OK, let's go!" Ben says.
+
+They hold hands and start to skip. They skip up and down and left and right. They laugh and sing. They feel happy and free.
+
+They meet a dog on the zigzag path. The dog is big and brown. He has a long tail and floppy ears. He looks friendly. He wags his tail and barks.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Sara says.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Ben says.
+
+The dog comes closer. He sniffs Sara and Ben. He licks their faces. He wants to play.
+
+"Do you want to play with us, dog?" Sara asks.
+
+"Ruff, ruff!" the dog says.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They let go of their hands. They run and chase the dog on the zigzag path. The dog runs and chases them back. They have more fun.
+
+They play until they are tired. They sit on the grass. They pet the dog. They thank him for playing with them.
+
+"Thank you, dog!" Sara says.
+
+"Thank you, dog!" Ben says.
+
+"Ruff, ruff!" the dog says.
+
+They hug the dog. They say goodbye. They hold hands again. They skip back to their parents. They tell them about their adventure on the zigzag path. They smile and hug their parents. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a purple ball. They kick the ball to each other.
+
+One day, they see a big bell in the park. It is on a tall pole. It has a rope. Lily and Ben want to hear the bell. They run to the pole.
+
+"Can you reach the rope?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"No, it is too high," Ben says. "We need to raise something to pull the rope."
+
+They look around. They see a bench. They push the bench to the pole. They climb on the bench. They are still too short.
+
+They see a box. They put the box on the bench. They climb on the box. They are almost there.
+
+They see a stick. They grab the stick. They raise the stick to the rope. They pull the rope with the stick.
+
+Ding! Ding! Ding!
+
+The bell makes a loud sound. Lily and Ben laugh. They are happy. They hear the sound of the purple ball.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and chase each other. They saw a big hole in the ground. It was a well. They wanted to look inside.
+
+"Be careful," Lila said. "It is very deep and dark."
+
+Tom nodded. He leaned over the edge of the well. He saw some water and some stones. He also saw something shiny. It was a coin. He wanted to get it.
+
+"I see a coin," he said. "I want to take it."
+
+He reached out his hand. He stretched and stretched. He lost his balance. He fell into the well.
+
+Lila screamed. She was very scared. She ran to the house. She called for help.
+
+"Mom! Dad! Tom fell into the well! Come quick!"
+
+Mom and Dad heard her. They ran to the garden. They saw the well. They heard Tom crying.
+
+"Don't panic, Tom," Dad said. "We will get you out. Stay calm."
+
+He got a rope. He tied it to a bucket. He lowered it into the well.
+
+"Grab the bucket, Tom," he said. "We will pull you up."
+
+Tom saw the bucket. He grabbed it. He held on tight. Mom and Dad pulled the rope. They lifted him out of the well.
+
+They hugged him. They were very happy. They were also very angry.
+
+"Tom, you were very naughty," Mom said. "You could have been hurt. You should never go near the well again."
+
+Tom nodded. He was sorry. He was also curious.
+
+"Mom, Dad, can I have the coin?" he asked. "It was very shiny and mysterious. Maybe it is magic."
+
+Mom and Dad looked at each other. They shook their heads.
+
+"No, Tom, you can't have the coin," they said. "It is not yours. It belongs to someone else. Maybe it is a wish coin. Maybe someone threw it into the well and made a wish. You should leave it alone."
+
+Tom frowned. He was disappointed. He wondered what the wish was. He hoped it was a good one. He also hoped he would never fall into the well again.
+Sara is a young girl who likes to play with her toys. She has a doll, a bear, a ball and a car. She likes to make them talk and have fun. But when it is night, she has to go to bed and sleep.
+
+One night, Sara hears a noise in her room. She opens her eyes and sees a light. She is scared and wants to call her mom. But then she sees a small fairy flying near her bed. The fairy has wings, a dress and a wand. She smiles at Sara and says, "Hello, Sara. I am Lily, a dream fairy. I came to give you a nice dream."

+Sara blinks and rubs her eyes. She thinks she is dreaming, but the fairy is still there. She asks, "A dream fairy? What is that?"
+
+Lily says, "A dream fairy is a friend who helps you have good dreams. I can make you see anything you want in your sleep. Do you want to go to a park, a zoo, a castle, or somewhere else?"
+
+Sara thinks for a moment. She likes all those places, but she has an idea. She says, "Can you make me see my grandma? She lives far away and I miss her."
+
+Lily nods and says, "Of course, Sara. I can do that. Just close your eyes and hold my hand. I will take you to your grandma's house in your dream."
+
+Sara closes her eyes and feels Lily's hand. She feels warm and happy. She says, "Thank you, Lily. You are very nice."
+
+Lily says, "You are welcome, Sara. You are very brave and sweet. Now, let's go see your grandma."
+
+Sara falls asleep and has a wonderful dream. She sees her grandma, who hugs her and gives her cookies. She plays with her grandma's dog and cat. She tells her grandma about her toys and her fairy. Her grandma says, "I love you, Sara. You are my precious girl."
+
+Sara says, "I love you too, grandma. You are my best grandma."
+
+Sara wakes up in the morning and smiles. She remembers her dream and feels happy. She looks for Lily, but she is gone. She thinks, "Maybe she will come back another night. I hope so. She is my friend."
+
+She gets up and goes to her mom. She tells her mom about her dream and her fairy. Her mom hugs her and says, "That sounds like a beautiful dream, Sara. I am glad you saw your grandma. She loves you very much. And maybe you will see your fairy again. She sounds like a special friend."
+
+Sara says, "Yes, mom. She is. Can I call her on the phone?"
+
+Her mom laughs and says, "Maybe not, Sara. But you can talk to her in your heart. And maybe she will hear you and visit you again."
+
+Sara nods and says, "OK, mom. I will do that. I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom says, "I love you too, Sara. You are my young and wonderful girl."
+One day, Tom and Anna went to the farm with their mom and dad. They saw many animals, like cows, pigs, chickens and sheep. They also saw a big field with orange things growing on the ground.
+
+"What are those?" Tom asked.
+
+"Those are squash," mom said. "They are a kind of fruit that you can eat or make into soup."
+
+"Can we pick some?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. Some of them are very big and heavy," dad said.
+
+Tom and Anna ran to the field and looked for squash. They found some small ones and some big ones. They tried to lift a big one, but it was too heavy for them.
+
+"Help, help!" they shouted.
+
+Mom and dad heard them and came to help. They saw Tom and Anna struggling with a big squash.
+
+"Wow, that's a powerful squash!" dad said. "It's bigger than you two!"
+
+He lifted the squash and put it in a basket. Tom and Anna were happy and proud.
+
+"Can we take it home?" they asked.
+
+"Of course, we can make a delicious soup with it," mom said.
+
+They thanked the farmer and went home with their squash and other fruits and vegetables. They had a fun and tasty day at the farm.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to wake up early and see the sunrise. They have a big window in their room that shows the sky. Every morning, they get out of bed and run to the window. They say hello to the sun and the birds and the clouds.
+
+One day, they see something new. The sky is not blue or pink or yellow. It is red and orange and purple. It looks like fire. Anna and Ben are scared. They think the sky is burning. They hug each other and cry.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to their room. She sees the sky and smiles. She says, "Don't be scared, my loves. This is a special sunrise. It is called a sunrise with many colors. It is very pretty and rare. It is not fire. It is just light."
+
+She picks them up and holds them close. She says, "You are safe with me. Do you want to touch the sunrise?" She opens the window and lets them feel the warm air. Anna and Ben stop crying and reach out their hands. They touch the sunrise and giggle. They think it is soft and gentle. They say, "Thank you, Mom. We love you and the sunrise." Mom kisses them and says, "I love you too, my sweeties. Now let's go and have some breakfast." They go downstairs and eat pancakes and honey. They are happy and calm. They like the sunrise with many colors.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they missed and the ball rolled away. They ran after it and laughed.
+
+One time, the ball rolled too far and went near a big dog. The dog was fierce and barked loud. It did not like the ball. It bit the ball and made a hole. Lily and Ben were scared and sad. They wanted their ball back.
+
+"Hey, dog, give us our ball!" Ben shouted. He was brave.
+
+The dog growled and shook the ball. It did not listen to Ben. It ran away with the ball.
+
+Lily had an idea. She took out her phone from her pocket. She showed it to the dog. The dog liked the phone. It was shiny and made noises. It dropped the ball and ran to the phone.
+
+"Quick, Ben, get the ball!" Lily said. She threw the phone to the dog. The dog caught the phone and played with it.
+
+Ben ran and got the ball. He was happy. He hugged Lily and thanked her.
+
+"Good job, Lily, you are smart!" Ben said.
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She was proud. She did not mind the phone. It was old and broken. She liked the ball more.
+
+They kicked the ball to each other and had fun. They did not look at the dog. The dog did not look at them. It was busy with the phone. It liked the phone more.
+Sam is a big dog. He likes to run and play in the park. He has a leash that his owner puts on him when they go outside. The leash is red and shiny. Sam thinks it is attractive.
+
+One day, Sam sees a small cat in the park. The cat is scared of Sam. It runs away and climbs a tree. Sam wants to play with the cat. He barks and pulls on his leash. His owner says, "No, Sam, leave the cat alone. It does not want to play with you."
+
+Sam does not listen. He tries to reach the cat with his paws. He breaks his leash and runs to the tree. The cat hisses and scratches Sam's nose. Sam cries and runs back to his owner. His owner hugs him and says, "I'm sorry, Sam. You should have listened to me. The cat was not your friend. Come on, let's go home and get you a new leash."
+
+On the way home, Sam sees another dog. The dog is small and fluffy. It has a blue bow on its head. Sam thinks it is attractive. The dog wags its tail and smiles at Sam. Sam wags his tail and smiles back. The dog's owner says, "Hello, what is your dog's name?"
+
+Sam's owner says, "This is Sam. He is a good dog, but he needs to learn to be careful. He just broke his leash and got scratched by a cat."
+
+The dog's owner says, "Oh, poor Sam. That must have hurt. My dog's name is Lily. She is very friendly. Do you want to play with her?"
+
+Sam's owner says, "Sure, that would be nice. Maybe Lily can help Sam make better choices. Here, you can use my spare leash. It is purple and sparkly. Sam, do you like it?"
+
+Sam looks at the purple and sparkly leash. He thinks it is attractive. He nods and barks. He likes Lily and her owner. He thinks they are nice. He decides to play with Lily and forget about the cat. He hopes Lily will be his friend. He thinks he will listen to his owner more. He wants to be a good dog.
+Lily likes to draw with pastels. She has many colors: pink, blue, yellow, green, purple. She makes flowers, stars, hearts, and rainbows on her paper. She is happy when she draws.
+
+One day, her mom says, "Lily, it is time to eat. Come to the table, please." Lily does not want to stop drawing. She says, "No, mom. I want to draw more." She keeps drawing with her pastels.
+
+Her mom says, "Lily, you need to eat. Eating is good for you. It makes you healthy and strong. You can draw after you eat." Lily does not listen to her mom. She says, "No, mom. I want to draw now." She draws a big sun with her yellow pastel.
+
+Her mom says, "Lily, I am counting to three. If you do not come to the table, I will take away your pastels. One, two, three." Lily still does not listen to her mom. She says, "No, mom. I love my pastels." She draws a smiley face with her pink pastel.
+
+Her mom says, "Lily, you are not listening to me. That is not nice. I am sorry, but I have to take away your pastels. You can have them back when you eat your food." She takes Lily's pastels and puts them in a drawer. Lily is sad and angry. She cries and says, "Mom, give me back my pastels. I want to draw. I don't want to eat."
+
+Her mom says, "Lily, I love you, but you have to listen to me. Eating is important. You can draw later. Come on, let's go to the table. I made your favorite soup. It is yummy and healthy. You will like it." She hugs Lily and takes her to the table.
+
+Lily is still upset, but she decides to try the soup. She takes a sip and says, "Mmm, this is good. Thank you, mom." She eats her soup and feels better. She says, "Mom, I am sorry I did not listen to you. Can I have my pastels back, please?" Her mom says, "Yes, you can, after you finish your soup. I am proud of you for eating your food. You are a good girl." She smiles and kisses Lily.
+
+Lily finishes her soup and says, "Mom, can I draw now?" Her mom says, "Yes, you can. But remember to listen to me next time, okay?" Lily says, "Okay, mom. I will listen to you. I love you." She gets her pastels and draws a picture of her mom and her with a big heart. She gives it to her mom and says, "This is for you, mom. You are the best mom ever." Her mom says, "Thank you, Lily. You are the best daughter ever. I love you, too." They hug and laugh. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room with their toys. One day, they hear a loud noise. It is the alarm. The alarm says there is a fire in the house.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They run to the door, but it is hot. They cannot go out. They notice smoke coming from under the door. They cough and cry.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shout.
+
+Mom and Dad hear them. They are outside with the firemen. They see the fire in the window of Lily and Ben's room. They are very worried.
+
+"Please save our children!" they beg the firemen.
+
+The firemen put on their helmets and coats. They have a big hose and a ladder. They spray water on the fire. They climb the ladder to the window. They break the glass and go inside.
+
+Lily and Ben see the firemen. They are happy. The firemen pick them up and carry them out. They wrap them in warm blankets. They give them hugs and kisses.
+
+Mom and Dad run to them. They hug them and kiss them too. They are so glad they are safe.
+

+
+Lily and Ben smile. They feel warm and loved. They are happy to be with their family. They are happy to be alive.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big pumpkin in their garden. It was orange and round and had a green stem.
+
+"Let's put the pumpkin in our wagon and take it to the house," Sara said.
+
+"OK," Ben said. They lifted the pumpkin together and put it in their red wagon. They pulled the wagon to the house.
+
+But when they got to the house, they saw that the pumpkin had a hole in it. There were worms and bugs inside the hole. The pumpkin was bad.
+
+"Yuck!" Sara said. "The pumpkin is bad. We can't use it for anything."
+
+"Maybe we can make a scary face on it," Ben said. "Then we can put it outside and scare the birds."
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She did not like the bad pumpkin, but she liked to scare the birds.
+
+"OK," she said. "Let's make a scary face on it."
+
+They got a knife and a spoon from the kitchen. They cut out two eyes, a nose and a mouth on the pumpkin. They scooped out the worms and bugs and threw them away. They put a candle inside the pumpkin and lit it.
+
+The pumpkin looked very scary. It had a big smile and sharp teeth. It glowed in the dark.
+
+They put the pumpkin outside on the porch. They hid behind the bushes and waited for the birds to come.
+
+Soon, they saw a crow flying by. It saw the pumpkin and flew closer. It wanted to peck at the pumpkin.
+
+But when it saw the scary face, it got scared. It cawed loudly and flew away.
+
+Sara and Ben laughed. They had fun scaring the bird.
+
+They decided to keep the bad pumpkin until Halloween. They hoped to scare more birds and maybe some people too.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big bird with a long neck and legs. It was an ostrich. The ostrich was eating grass and flowers.
+
+"Wow, look at that bird!" Tom said. "It is so big and funny!"
+
+"I want to touch it!" Mia said. "It has soft feathers and a cute beak!"
+
+Tom was scared of the ostrich. He thought it might bite or kick them. He said, "No, Mia, don't go near it! It is dangerous!"
+
+Mia was not scared. She was brave and curious. She said, "I dare you to touch it, Tom! If you touch it, I will give you a candy!"
+
+Tom liked candy, but he did not like the ostrich. He said, "No, thank you, Mia. I don't want to touch it. You touch it first!"
+
+Mia smiled and said, "Okay, I will touch it. Watch me!" She ran towards the ostrich and reached out her hand.
+
+The ostrich saw Mia and was surprised. It did not like strangers. It made a loud noise and ran away. Mia fell down and hurt her knee.
+
+Tom ran to help Mia. He said, "Are you okay, Mia? I'm sorry, I should have stopped you. That was a bad dare."
+
+Mia cried and said, "It's okay, Tom. I'm sorry, too. That was a silly dare. I should have listened to you. That bird was too big and fast for us."
+
+Tom hugged Mia and said, "Let's go to the nurse. She will make your knee better. Then we can have some candy and play with something else. Maybe a small and nice bird, like a duck or a robin."
+
+Mia nodded and said, "Yes, let's do that. You are a good friend, Tom. And I learned something today. Ostriches are not for touching. They are for looking."
+Tom was a thin cat who liked to sleep on a bin. He did not have a home or a friend, so he slept on the bin all day and night. He was not happy, but he did not know how to change his life.
+
+One night, he had a dream. He dreamed that he was in a big house with a nice family. They gave him food and water and toys and cuddles. They called him Tom and loved him very much. He felt warm and safe and happy. He wished he could stay in his dream forever.
+
+But then he heard a loud noise. It was a big truck that came to take the bin away. Tom woke up and saw the truck coming closer and closer. He was scared and jumped off the bin. He ran away as fast as he could.
+
+"Hey, kitty, are you okay?" he heard a voice. He looked and saw a little girl who was holding a bowl of milk. She had a kind face and a big smile. She put the bowl on the ground and said, "Come here, kitty, I won't hurt you. I have a home and a friend for you. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+Tom was surprised and curious. He sniffed the milk and licked it. It was good. He looked at the girl and felt something warm in his heart. He decided to trust her and follow her. Maybe his dream could come true after all.
+Lily liked to imagine. She imagined she was a princess, a fairy, a doctor, or a teacher. She imagined she had a big castle, a magic wand, a stethoscope, or a chalkboard. She imagined she could do anything she wanted.
+
+One day, Lily was imagining she was a singer. She put on a pretty dress and a shiny necklace. She took a hairbrush and pretended it was a microphone. She sang her favorite songs very loud and very high. She did not hear her mom come into the room.
+
+"Wow, Lily, you have a beautiful voice!" her mom said, clapping her hands. Lily was so surprised that she dropped the hairbrush. She felt her face get hot. She was embarrassed. She did not want her mom to see her imagining.
+
+"Mom, go away!" Lily said, hiding under the bed. "I don't want you to watch me!"
+
+"Oh, Lily, don't be shy," her mom said, smiling. "I love your imagination. It's fun to pretend. Can I join you?"
+
+Lily peeked out from under the bed. She saw her mom holding the hairbrush. She looked silly. Lily giggled. Maybe it was not so bad to share her imagination.
+
+"OK, mom, you can join me," Lily said, crawling out from under the bed. "But you have to sing too!"
+
+"Of course, Lily, I love to sing!" her mom said, handing her the hairbrush. "What song do you want to sing?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She decided to sing her favorite song. She imagined she was on a big stage, with lights and fans. She imagined she was a star. She smiled and sang with her mom. She was happy.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball and a bike. They take turns to ride the bike and kick the ball.
+
+One day, they see a big gate at the end of the park. The gate is closed. They wonder what is behind the gate. They want to find out.
+
+"Let's race to the gate!" Tom says. "The first one to touch the gate wins!"
+
+"OK!" Lily says. "Ready, set, go!"
+
+Tom and Lily run as fast as they can. They pass the trees, the swings, and the slide. They are both very fast. They are both very happy.
+
+They reach the gate at the same time. They both touch the gate with their hands. They laugh and hug.
+
+"We both win!" Tom says.
+
+"We both win!" Lily says.
+
+They look through the gate. They see a big field with flowers and butterflies. They smile and clap.
+
+"Wow!" Tom says.
+
+"Wow!" Lily says.
+
+They go back to their ball and bike. They play some more. They are happy friends.
+Lily and Ben like to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make roads with their blocks and roll their cars on them. Sometimes they have races or crashes.
+
+One day, they find a big cross in the garage. It is made of wood and has four arms. Lily and Ben think it is a good toy for their cars. They take it to their room and put it on the floor.
+
+"Look, we can roll our cars on the cross!" Lily says. She picks a red car and rolls it on one arm of the cross. Ben picks a blue car and rolls it on another arm. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But soon they want to roll their cars on the same arm. Lily and Ben both try to roll their cars on the top arm of the cross. Their cars bump into each other and fall off.
+
+"Hey, that's my arm!" Lily says. "No, it's mine!" Ben says. They start to argue and pull the cross.
+
+"Stop, stop!" Mom says. She comes into the room and sees the mess. "What are you doing with the cross? That's not a toy, that's a decoration. You can't play with it."
+
+"But we like it, Mom!" Lily and Ben say. "It's fun to roll our cars on it."
+
+Mom shakes her head. "I know, but the cross is not for that. It is a symbol of something very important. It means love and sacrifice and hope. You have to be careful and respectful with it."
+
+Lily and Ben look at the cross and feel sorry. They didn't know it was so special. They say sorry to Mom and to the cross.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. "It's okay, I forgive you. But next time, ask me before you take something from the garage. And why don't you make your own cross with your blocks? You can roll your cars on it as much as you want."
+
+Lily and Ben think that's a good idea. They put the cross back in the garage and go to their room. They use their blocks to make a cross that is wise and strong. They roll their cars on it and share the arms. They are happy and thankful.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play games. One day, they decided to have a race around the park. They asked their mom to give them a trophy for the winner. Mom smiled and said, "Okay, but you have to share it and be nice to each other."
+
+Ben and Lily ran as fast as they could, but they were both very good at running. They reached the finish line at the same time. They looked at each other and said, "Wow, we are both very fast! Who gets the trophy?"
+
+Mom came with the trophy and said, "You both get the trophy, because you both did a great job. You can take turns to hold it and put it in your room." Ben and Lily were happy and hugged mom. They thanked her for the trophy and said they would share it.
+
+But the next day, Ben was feeling nosy. He wanted to see the trophy in Lily's room. He waited until Lily was playing outside and then he sneaked into her room. He searched for the trophy under the bed, in the closet, and on the shelf. He could not find it anywhere. He was confused and worried. Where was the trophy?
+
+He heard Lily coming back and quickly ran out of her room. He bumped into Lily in the hall and said, "Hi, Lily. What are you doing?" Lily looked at him and said, "I was playing outside. What are you doing?" She saw something shiny in his hand and said, "Hey, is that the trophy?"
+
+Ben looked at his hand and saw the trophy. He had grabbed it from the shelf without noticing. He felt guilty and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, Lily. I was just looking for the trophy. I wanted to see it." Lily frowned and said, "Ben, that's not nice. You should not go into my room without asking. You should not take the trophy without telling me. That's not sharing. That's being nosy."
+
+Ben realized he had made a mistake. He said, "You're right, Lily. I'm sorry. I was being nosy. Can you forgive me?" Lily nodded and said, "Yes, I can forgive you. But next time, please ask me first. And let's share the trophy like mom said." Ben agreed and said, "Okay, Lily. Let's share the trophy. And let's not be nosy anymore." They hugged and went to show mom the trophy. Mom was proud of them for being honest and kind. She gave them both a kiss and said, "You are both very good twins. I love you."
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy ship in the garden. They liked to pretend they were pirates and sail to different islands. Lily was the captain and Ben was the first mate.
+
+"Look, Ben, there is a big rock over there. Maybe it is a treasure island!" Lily said, pointing to a pile of dirt.
+
+"Let's go and see!" Ben said, nodding his head. They picked up their ship and ran to the rock.
+
+They put their ship down and started to dig with their hands. They hoped to find gold and jewels and pearls. But they only found worms and stones and leaves.
+
+"Aw, this is not treasure!" Ben said, feeling sad.
+
+"Maybe we need to dig deeper," Lily said, trying to be brave.
+
+They dug and dug, but they still did not find anything shiny or pretty. They were getting tired and dirty.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a voice behind them.
+
+"Hello, children. What are you doing?" It was their dad, who had come home from work.
+
+He saw their ship and their hole and their faces.
+
+"We are pirates, dad. We are looking for treasure on this island," Lily said.
+
+"But this is not an island, this is our garden. And this is not treasure, this is dirt," dad said, smiling.
+
+He picked up their ship and hugged them.
+
+"You are very intelligent, children. You have a lot of imagination. But you know what is more valuable than treasure? Love and family and friends. And you have all of that," he said.
+
+He kissed them and took them inside.
+
+"Can we play pirates again tomorrow, dad?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. But first, let's have some dinner and a bath. You are very hungry and dirty, pirates," dad said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and followed him. They were happy. They loved their dad and their ship and their game.
+Lily liked to play in the garden. She liked to look at the flowers and the bugs. One day, she saw a green caterpillar on a leaf. She thought it was cute and friendly. She said hello to the caterpillar.
+
+"Hello, caterpillar. What is your name?" she asked.
+
+The caterpillar looked at Lily and said, "My name is Max. I am happy to meet you."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I am Lily. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Max nodded and said, "Yes, I want to be your friend. You are nice and kind."
+
+Lily and Max talked and played for a while. They had fun and laughed. Lily told Max about her toys and her family. Max told Lily about his food and his dreams.
+
+"I want to be a butterfly one day," Max said. "I want to fly and see the world."
+
+Lily gasped and said, "That is amazing. I want to see you as a butterfly. Can you show me when you change?"
+
+Max smiled and said, "Of course. I promise to show you when I change. But you have to promise to come back and visit me. I will miss you when you go."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I promise to come back and visit you. I will miss you too. You are my best friend."
+
+They hugged and said goodbye. Lily went back to her house. Max stayed on his leaf. They both looked forward to seeing each other again. They both kept their promise.
+Sara and Ben like to play with paper. They can fold it and make different shapes. Sara likes to fold paper into boats and planes. Ben likes to fold paper into hats and animals. They have fun with their paper toys.
+
+One day, they find a new kind of paper in the art room. It is shiny and smooth. It has a different texture from the other paper. Sara and Ben want to try it. They each take a piece and start to fold it.
+
+"Look, I made a star!" Sara says, holding up her shiny paper. "It is so pretty and bright!"
+
+"I made a fish!" Ben says, showing his shiny paper. "It is so smooth and slippery!"
+
+They admire each other's paper toys. They are both very good at folding paper. They are fair and share their paper with each other. They make more stars and fish and other shapes. They have more fun with their shiny paper.
+Ben and Mia like to play in the park. They see a big rock and run to it. Ben wants to climb on the rock, but Mia is afraid. She says, "No, Ben, it is too high. You can fall and hurt yourself."
+
+Ben says, "Don't be scared, Mia. I can do it. Watch me." He starts to climb on the rock, but it is slippery and hard. He slips and falls on the grass. He cries, "Ow, ow, ow!"
+
+Mia runs to him and hugs him. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. Are you okay?" Ben nods and wipes his tears. He says, "I'm okay, Mia. Thank you for being my friend."
+
+They see a small rock and pick it up. They look at it and see it has many colors and shapes. They are curious and happy. They say, "Wow, this is a beautiful rock. Let's keep it."
+
+They put the rock in their pocket and go to the swings. They swing high and low and laugh. They feel a victory. They say, "We are the best rock finders in the park. We are brave and smart and kind." They smile and hold hands. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat lunch. Mom said they could make sandwiches with bread and meat and cheese. Lily and Ben liked sandwiches.
+
+They went to the kitchen and found the bread and the meat and the cheese. They also found a jar of jam. Lily liked jam. She wanted to put jam on her sandwich. Ben did not like jam. He wanted to put butter on his sandwich.
+
+Lily took a knife and opened the jar of jam. She spread jam on one slice of bread. She put meat and cheese on another slice of bread. She put the two slices together. She had a jam and meat and cheese sandwich.
+
+Ben took another knife and opened the tub of butter. He spread butter on one slice of bread. He put meat and cheese on another slice of bread. He put the two slices together. He had a butter and meat and cheese sandwich.
+
+They looked at their sandwiches. They looked at each other. They smiled.
+
+"Your sandwich looks yummy," Lily said.
+
+"Your sandwich looks yummy, too," Ben said.
+
+They traded half of their sandwiches. They each had a jam and butter and meat and cheese sandwich.
+
+They took a bite. They liked their sandwiches. They liked sharing.
+
+They were lucky. They had each other. They had lunch.
+Sara was bored. She had played with all her toys and read all her books. She wanted to do something new and interesting. She looked around her room and saw her mom's scissors on the desk. She wondered what she could do with them.
+
+She picked up the scissors and walked to the closet. She opened the door and saw her old clothes. She had an idea. She could cut them and make new clothes. She took out a pink dress and a blue shirt. She put them on the floor and started to cut.
+
+She cut the dress into small pieces and the shirt into big pieces. She tried to put them together with tape, but it did not work. She was frustrated. She wanted to make something beautiful, but she only made a mess.
+
+"Mom, mom, look what I did!" she shouted. She wanted to show her mom her new clothes.
+
+Mom came into the room and saw the scissors, the tape, and the cut clothes. She was shocked and angry.
+
+"Sara, what have you done? You ruined your clothes and my scissors! You could have hurt yourself! You are not allowed to play with scissors!" she scolded.
+
+Sara felt sad and sorry. She did not mean to make mom mad. She only wanted to have fun.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to make new clothes. I thought it would be interesting," she said.
+
+Mom sighed and hugged Sara.
+
+"I know, sweetie. But scissors are not toys. They are sharp and dangerous. You have to ask me before you use them. And you have to be careful with your clothes. They are not for cutting. They are for wearing. Do you understand?" she said.
+
+Sara nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I'm sorry. I love you."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I love you too. Now let's clean up this mess and find something else to do. Something safe and interesting."
+Lily liked to dress up as different animals. She had a lot of costumes in her big box. One day, she found a new costume. It was black and white and had a long neck and big feathers. It was an ostrich costume.
+
+She put on the costume and ran to show her mom. She said, "Look, mom, I am an ostrich!" But her mom did not hear her. Her mom was deaf. She could not hear any sounds. She used her eyes and her hands to talk.
+
+Lily ran to her mom and tapped her shoulder. Her mom looked at her and smiled. She saw the costume and said with her hands, "You are an ostrich. You look very funny and cute."
+
+Lily smiled back and said with her hands, "Thank you, mom. I like to be an ostrich. Can I go outside and play?"
+
+Her mom nodded and said with her hands, "Yes, you can. But be careful. Do not run too fast or you might fall."
+
+Lily hugged her mom and said with her hands, "I love you, mom. You are the best mom in the world."
+
+She went outside and played with her ostrich costume. She pretended to eat grass and hide her head in the sand. She had a lot of fun. She was happy to be an ostrich and to have a mom who loved her.
+Lily did not like haircuts. She did not like the scissors that snip snip snip her hair. She did not like the cape that made her itch. She did not like the chair that went up and down. She did not want to leave her toys and go to the salon.
+
+But Mommy said she had to go. Mommy said her hair was too long and messy. Mommy said she would look pretty and neat with a haircut. Mommy said she would get a sticker and a lollipop if she was good.
+
+Lily put on her shoes and coat. She took her teddy bear with her. She was not ready for a haircut, but she did not want to make Mommy sad. She hoped it would be quick and painless.
+
+At the salon, Lily saw a lady with a smile. The lady said her name was Sue. Sue said she would give Lily a haircut. Sue said she would be gentle and careful. Sue said she liked Lily's teddy bear.
+
+Lily sat on the chair. Sue put the cape on her. Sue combed her hair. Sue picked up the scissors. Lily closed her eyes. She heard snip snip snip. She felt her hair fall on the cape. She hoped it would be over soon.
+
+"Look, Lily, you're done!" Sue said. "You have a beautiful haircut! Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily opened her eyes. She looked in the mirror. She saw her hair was shorter and neater. She saw her face was still the same. She saw her teddy bear was still with her. She smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Sue," Lily said. "I like my haircut. Can I have a sticker and a lollipop now?"
+
+"Of course, Lily," Sue said. "You were very brave and good. Here you go. You can choose any sticker and any lollipop you want."
+
+Lily picked a pink sticker and a cherry lollipop. She put the sticker on her teddy bear. She unwrapped the lollipop and licked it. It was sweet and yummy.
+
+"Are you ready to go, Lily?" Mommy asked. "You look lovely with your haircut. I'm so proud of you."
+
+Lily nodded. She hugged Sue goodbye. She took Mommy's hand. She was ready to leave the salon. She was happy with her haircut. She was happy with her sticker and lollipop. She was happy with her teddy bear. She was happy with Mommy.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and cars and books. One day, they found a big box in the garage. Inside the box, there were many masks. Some masks were scary, some masks were funny, some masks were pretty.
+
+Lily and Ben tried on the masks and pretended to be different animals and people. They had a lot of fun. But then, Lily saw a mask that was very rare. It was a mask of a unicorn, with a shiny horn and a rainbow mane. Lily loved unicorns. She wanted to wear the mask.
+
+"Can I have this mask, please?" Lily asked Ben.
+
+"No, I want it!" Ben said. "It is my mask. I saw it first."
+
+They both pulled on the mask and started to fight. The mask ripped in half. Lily and Ben were very sad and angry. They threw the mask pieces on the floor and ran away from each other.
+
+They did not talk to each other for a long time. They missed each other, but they were too proud to say sorry. They played alone, but they were not happy.
+
+One day, Lily's mom saw the mask pieces in the garage. She asked Lily what happened. Lily told her the truth. Lily's mom said, "You and Ben made a mistake. You should not fight over a mask. You should share and be kind. You should forgive each other and be friends again. Do you want to do that?"
+
+Lily thought about it. She nodded. She said, "Yes, I do. I am sorry. I love Ben. He is my best friend."
+
+Lily's mom smiled. She said, "That is good. Why don't you go and tell him that? Maybe he feels the same way."
+
+Lily took one piece of the mask and ran to Ben's house. She knocked on the door. Ben opened it. He looked surprised and happy to see Lily. Lily said, "Hi, Ben. I am sorry. I was wrong. I want to be your friend again. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Ben smiled. He said, "Hi, Lily. I am sorry, too. I was wrong. I want to be your friend again. I forgive you."
+
+They hugged and laughed. They showed each other their mask pieces. They said, "Let's fix the mask together. Then we can both wear it and play."
+
+They went inside and found some tape and glue. They worked hard and fixed the mask. It looked almost as good as new. They took turns wearing it and pretending to be a unicorn. They had a lot of fun. They were happy. They were best friends.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They found some cans and jars and bowls and spoons. They opened the cans and jars and poured them into the bowls. They mixed and stirred and tasted.
+
+"Wow, this is spicy!" Ben said, making a funny face. He had tasted the salsa. He drank some water. "I don't like spicy food. It hurts my tongue."
+
+"I like spicy food. It makes me warm and happy," Sara said. She had tasted the curry. She smiled. "But maybe we can improve our food. We can add some other things. Like cheese and bread and fruit."
+
+They looked around the kitchen for more ingredients. They saw a bottle of honey on the shelf. They reached for it, but it was too high. They climbed on a chair, but it was still too high. They climbed on the table, but it was very wobbly. They grabbed the bottle, but it slipped from their hands. It fell on the floor and broke. Honey spilled everywhere. It was sticky and sweet.
+
+"Oh no!" Sara and Ben said. They saw the honey leak on the floor. They saw the broken glass. They saw the mess. They heard their mom coming. They were scared. They jumped off the table and ran to their room. They hid under the bed.
+
+Their mom came into the kitchen. She saw the honey leak on the floor. She saw the broken glass. She saw the mess. She smelled the spicy food. She was angry. She called Sara and Ben. They did not answer. She looked for them. She found them under the bed. They looked sad and sorry.
+
+"What did you do?" their mom asked. She was not happy.
+
+"We were playing chefs. We wanted to make yummy food. We wanted to improve our food. But we made a big mistake. We are sorry, mom," Sara and Ben said. They were not proud.
+
+Their mom sighed. She was not happy, but she was not mean. She loved Sara and Ben. She knew they were curious and creative. She knew they wanted to have fun and learn. She knew they did not mean to make a mess.
+
+"It's okay, Sara and Ben. I know you were playing. I know you were trying to improve your food. But you have to be careful. You have to ask me before you use the kitchen. You have to be safe. You have to clean up after yourselves. Do you understand?" their mom said. She was calm and kind.
+
+"Yes, mom. We understand. We are sorry, mom. We will help you clean up. We will be careful. We will ask you. We will be good," Sara and Ben said. They were honest and polite.
+
+Their mom smiled. She was happy. She hugged Sara and Ben. She kissed them. She said, "I love you, Sara and Ben. You are my sweet and spicy kids."
+Sara loves peanut. Peanut is her toy elephant. She takes peanut everywhere. She hugs peanut at night. She plays with peanut in the park. She talks to peanut all day.
+
+One day, Sara goes to visit her grandma. She packs her bag with clothes and books. But she forgets peanut. She leaves peanut on her bed. She does not see peanut when she gets in the car.
+
+When Sara gets to grandma's house, she is happy. She kisses grandma and grandpa. She eats cookies and milk. She reads stories and sings songs. But when it is time to sleep, she feels sad. She wants peanut. She misses peanut.
+
+"Grandma, I miss peanut," she says. "Peanut is my elephant. He is huge and soft and gray. He is my best friend. I left him at home. Can we go get him?"
+
+Grandma hugs Sara and says, "I'm sorry, Sara. I know you miss peanut. But we can't go get him now. It is too dark and too far. But I have an idea. Why don't we call mommy and ask her to put peanut on the phone? Maybe you can hear his voice and say good night to him. Would that make you feel better?"
+
+Sara nods and smiles. She likes grandma's idea. She calls mommy and hears peanut's voice. He makes a funny noise like an elephant. Sara laughs and says, "I love you, peanut. I miss you. I will see you soon. Good night, peanut." She feels happy and warm. She thanks grandma and mommy and hangs up the phone. She cuddles with grandma and falls asleep. She dreams of peanut and their adventures. She knows peanut misses her too.
+Tom was a little boy who liked to play with his toys. He had a red car, a blue ball, a yellow duck and a green bottle. He liked to make noises with his toys and pretend they were talking to each other.
+
+One day, he was playing with his bottle and his duck. He filled the bottle with water and poured it on the duck. The duck said, "Quack, quack, I am wet!" Tom laughed and said, "You are a silly duck. Do you want more water?" The duck said, "No, no, I am cold. Please dry me with a towel."
+
+Tom looked for a towel, but he could not find one. He saw his mom in the kitchen. He ran to her and said, "Mom, I need a towel. My duck is wet and cold." His mom smiled and said, "OK, Tom, I will get you a towel. But first, can you hold this for me?" She gave him a big bowl with a cake inside. The cake was brilliant. It had white frosting and colorful sprinkles.
+
+Tom was amazed by the cake. He said, "Wow, mom, this is a beautiful cake. Is it for me?" His mom said, "Yes, Tom, this is your birthday cake. Today is your special day. You are three years old!" Tom was very happy. He said, "Thank you, mom. I love you and I love the cake." He held the bowl very carefully and followed his mom to the living room.
+
+There, he saw his dad, his grandma, his grandpa and his friends. They all said, "Surprise! Happy birthday, Tom!" They sang a song, gave him hugs and kisses and gave him presents. Tom opened his presents and found more toys. He had a new train, a new book, a new hat and a new duck. He said, "Thank you, everyone. You are very nice. I have so many toys. Can we play with them?" They all said, "Yes, of course, Tom. But first, let's have some cake." They cut the cake and gave Tom a big slice. He ate it and said, "Mmm, this is a yummy cake. I am very happy." He held his bottle and his duck and smiled. He had a brilliant birthday.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a man sitting on a bench. He had a big wallet in his pocket. Lily had an idea.
+
+"Let's play a game," she said to Tom. "We can guess what is in his wallet. Maybe he has money, or cards, or pictures."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked to guess. They walked quietly to the bench. They looked at the wallet. It was brown and shiny.
+
+"I guess he has money," Tom said. "Lots of money. Maybe he can buy candy or toys."
+
+"I guess he has cards," Lily said. "Maybe he can play games or magic tricks."
+
+They wanted to see who was right. They reached for the wallet. But they were clumsy. They pulled too hard. The wallet fell out of the pocket. The man heard the noise. He turned around. He saw Lily and Tom holding his wallet. He was angry.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" he shouted. "Give me back my wallet. That's not yours. That's mine."
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They dropped the wallet. They ran away. They did not want to play that game anymore. They learned a lesson. They should not touch other people's things. They should ask before they guess.
+Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and cars and books. They were loyal to each other and always shared their toys and snacks.
+
+One day, they saw a big bus in the park. It was shiny and had many windows and seats. A lady came out of the bus and said, "Hello, children! Do you want to join me for a ride? I have a luxury bus with lots of fun things inside. You can watch TV, play games, eat candy, and see the city."
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other. They were curious and excited. They wanted to see the luxury bus and have fun. But they also remembered what their parents told them. They said, "Never go with strangers. They might be bad and hurt you. Stay together and be safe."
+
+Lily said, "No, thank you, lady. We don't know you. We have to stay here and wait for our parents. They will come soon and take us home."
+
+Max said, "Yes, we are loyal to our parents. They love us and we love them. We don't need your luxury bus. We have our own fun here."
+
+The lady frowned and said, "Oh, what a pity. You are missing a great opportunity. Well, suit yourselves. Goodbye, children." She got back on the bus and drove away.
+
+Lily and Max hugged each other and smiled. They were proud of themselves. They did the right thing. They were loyal to their parents and to each other. They did not need a luxury bus to be happy. They had each other and their toys and books. They continued to play and have fun until their parents came and took them home.
+Lily and Max were excited to bathe in the big tub. They loved to splash and play with the bubbles and toys. But they had a secret. They had found a little frog in the garden and they wanted to make it their pet.
+
+They hid the frog in a cup and sneaked it into the bathroom. They waited until Mom was busy in the kitchen and then they put the cup on the edge of the tub. They hoped Mom would not see it.
+
+They got into the water and pretended to wash their hair and faces. They smiled at each other and whispered, "Shh, don't tell Mom about the frog."
+
+But the frog did not like the cup. It wanted to hop and swim. It jumped out of the cup and landed in the tub. It made a loud splash and a croak.
+
+Lily and Max gasped and tried to catch the frog. But it was too fast and slippery. It swam under the bubbles and hid behind the toys.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came into the bathroom. She saw the frog in the tub and said, "What is this? Where did you get this frog?"
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other and said, "Sorry, Mom. It was our secret. We wanted to bathe with the frog."
+
+Mom shook her head and said, "You can't bathe with a frog. It's not good for the frog or for you. Frogs belong in the pond, not in the tub. Let's take the frog back to the garden and say goodbye."
+
+Lily and Max nodded and said, "Okay, Mom. We're sorry. We just wanted to have a pet."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I understand. But you have to be careful with animals. They have their own needs and feelings. Maybe we can find a different pet for you. How about a fish or a hamster?"
+
+Lily and Max thought about it and said, "Yes, Mom. That sounds good. Can we finish our bath first?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, you can. But no more frogs, okay?"
+
+Lily and Max said, "Okay, Mom. No more frogs." They hugged Mom and thanked her. Then they finished their bath and dried off. They took the frog back to the garden and said goodbye. They hoped the frog would be happy in the pond. They were still excited to have a pet, but they learned to respect the frog.
+Tom and Lily were playing in their room. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big switch on the wall. When they pushed the switch, the room became dark. When they pulled the switch, the room became bright. They liked to make the room dark and bright, dark and bright, over and over.
+
+One day, they saw something new in the room. It was a small ball that glowed in the dark. It was yellow and shiny, like the sun. Tom and Lily wanted to play with the ball. They pushed the switch and made the room dark. Then they threw the ball to each other and watched it glow.
+
+But the ball was not a toy. It was a humble gift from their grandma, who lived far away. She had sent it to them for their birthday. She wanted them to have something that reminded them of her love, even when they could not see her.
+
+The ball had a note on it. It said: "To Tom and Lily, happy birthday. I miss you and love you very much. This ball glows in the dark, like my heart for you. Grandma."
+
+Tom and Lily did not know how to read the note. They only saw the pretty ball. They played with it until they were tired. Then they put it on their bed and pulled the switch. The room became bright. The ball stopped glowing.
+
+But when they closed their eyes, they still saw the ball in their minds. And they felt a warm glow in their chests. They did not know it, but that was the glow of grandma's love.
+Tom and Sue live on a farm with their mom and dad. They have many animals, like cows, pigs, chickens and sheep. They like to help with the farm work and play with the animals.
+
+One day, Tom and Sue wake up early and see the sun shine bright in the sky. They put on their boots and hats and run outside. They want to see the animals and feed them.
+
+"Look, Sue, the pigs are muddy and dull. They need a bath," Tom says.
+
+"Yes, Tom, and the chickens are dusty and dull. They need a brush," Sue says.
+
+They go to the barn and get a bucket of water and a brush. They splash the pigs with water and scrub them with the brush. The pigs squeal and wiggle, but they become clean and shiny. They go to the coop and brush the chickens with the brush. The chickens cluck and flap, but they become clean and shiny.
+
+Tom and Sue are happy and proud. They have made the animals clean and shiny. They hug the animals and say thank you.
+
+"Good job, Tom and Sue. You are very helpful and kind," their mom says. She comes out of the house with a basket of eggs and bread. "Come on, let's have breakfast. You must be hungry after your work."
+
+Tom and Sue follow their mom to the house. They are hungry and tired, but they are also happy. They live on a farm where the sun shines and the animals are clean and shiny. They love their farm and their family.
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with cars and dolls and books. One day, they saw a big black car in the street. It had shiny wheels and a loud horn. Ben and Lily were envious. They wanted to have a car like that.
+
+"Let's plan to get a car like that," Ben said to Lily. "We can save our money and buy one."
+
+"How can we save money?" Lily asked. "We don't have jobs."
+
+"We can do chores for our moms and dads," Ben said. "They will give us coins. We can also sell our old toys and clothes."
+
+"That sounds good," Lily said. "But how much money do we need?"
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe a lot. Maybe a little. Let's ask the man who owns the car."
+
+They ran to the man who was sitting in the driver's seat. He had a big smile and a hat.
+
+"Excuse me, sir," Ben said. "How much did you pay for your car?"
+
+The man looked at them and laughed. He was not angry. He was kind.
+
+"My car is very expensive," he said. "It cost more than a thousand coins. You can't buy it with your money."
+
+Ben and Lily felt sad. They knew they could never save that much money.
+
+"But you know what?" the man said. "You don't need a car like mine. You have something better. You have each other. You have friendship. That is more valuable than any car."
+
+Ben and Lily smiled. They realized the man was right. They hugged each other and thanked the man.
+
+"Let's go play with our cars and dolls and books," Ben said to Lily. "They are fun and we love them."
+
+"Yes, let's go," Lily said. "We are happy and we have enough."
+
+They ran back to their house, holding hands. They were not envious anymore. They were grateful.
+Lily and Tom were clever kids. They liked to plan fun things to do. One day, they wanted to make a surprise for their mom. They saw a big clock on the wall. It had numbers and hands.
+
+"Let's make a cake for mom when the clock says four," Lily said.
+
+"OK, but how do we know when it is four?" Tom asked.
+
+Lily pointed to the clock. "See, the big hand goes around the clock. When it is on the twelve, that is one hour. When it is on the four, that is four hours. We have to wait until the big hand and the little hand are both on the four. Then it is four o'clock."
+
+Tom nodded. He understood. They went to the kitchen and got some flour, eggs, sugar, and butter. They mixed them in a big bowl. They poured the batter into a pan and put it in the oven. They set a timer to beep when the cake was done.
+
+They cleaned up the mess and waited for the clock to say four. They heard the timer beep. They took out the cake and put some frosting and sprinkles on it. They wrote "Happy Mom Day" with a tube of icing. They put the cake on a plate and carried it to the living room.
+
+They looked at the clock. It was four o'clock. They heard their mom coming home. They hid behind the couch and waited for her to see the cake.
+
+"Hello, kids, I'm home!" their mom said. She saw the cake on the table and smiled. She read the words and laughed. She looked around and saw Lily and Tom peeking out from behind the couch.
+
+"Surprise!" they shouted. They ran to hug their mom.
+
+"Wow, what a wonderful surprise! You are so clever and sweet! Thank you for making this cake for me!" their mom said. She kissed them and cut a slice of cake for each of them.
+
+They ate the cake and talked about their day. They were happy and proud. They had planned a good surprise for their mom. They loved their mom and their mom loved them.
+Lily and Ben were making dough with Mom. They liked to roll it and cut it into shapes. Mom said they could make cookies and bread. Lily wanted to make a star cookie. Ben wanted to make a snake bread.
+
+They put their dough on a tray and Mom put it in the oven. She said they had to wait for a while. Lily and Ben went to play with their toys. They had fun with their cars and dolls. They forgot about the dough.
+
+Mom came to get them. She said, "Look, your dough is ready!" She took out the tray from the oven. It smelled good. But Lily and Ben saw that their dough had changed. The star cookie was big and round. The snake bread was small and flat.
+
+"What happened to our dough?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "The dough grew in the oven. That's what dough does. It makes bubbles and gets bigger. But it's still yummy. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They took a bite of their dough. It was warm and soft and sweet. They liked it. They said, "Thank you, Mom!"
+
+Mom hugged them. She said, "You're welcome, my loves. You did a great job. Now let's have some milk and enjoy our dough."
+
+They sat at the table and ate their dough. They felt happy and peaceful. They did not forget to say, "We love you, Mom!"
+Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every week. One week, they saw a big dog in the park. The dog was brown and furry. It had a long tail and sharp teeth.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Ben said. He liked dogs. He wanted to pet the dog.
+
+"Wait, Ben!" Anna said. She was scared of dogs. She thought the dog might bite them. She held Ben's hand and trembled.
+
+The dog saw Anna and Ben. It ran towards them. It barked loudly. Anna and Ben screamed.
+
+"Help, help!" they cried.
+
+A man came running. He was the dog's owner. He had a leash in his hand. He caught the dog and put the leash on it.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. He's friendly, but he likes to chase. He won't hurt you," the man said.
+
+Anna and Ben stopped screaming. They looked at the dog. The dog wagged his tail and licked the man's face.
+
+"See? He's nice. Do you want to pet him?" the man asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He let go of Anna's hand and walked to the dog. He touched the dog's fur. It was soft and warm. The dog licked Ben's hand.
+
+"Hi, dog. You're cute," Ben said.
+
+Anna watched Ben and the dog. She felt less scared. She walked to the dog too. She touched the dog's ear. It was floppy and funny. The dog licked Anna's cheek.
+
+"Hi, dog. You're funny," Anna said.
+
+The man smiled. He gave Anna and Ben a cookie each.
+
+"Here, have a treat. You're brave kids," he said.
+
+Anna and Ben took the cookies. They were yummy. They thanked the man and the dog.
+
+"Bye, dog. Bye, man. Thank you for the cookies," they said.
+
+They waved and ran back to their parents. They told them about the dog and the cookies. They were happy. They had a new friend.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play with their toys and make up stories. One day, they found a big box in the garage. It was full of old things that their parents did not use anymore.
+
+"Look, Tom, what is this?" Lily asked, holding up a shiny metal thing with buttons and wires.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe it is a robot. Or a spaceship. Or a phone," Tom said, looking at it with wonder.
+
+"Let's plan a game with it. We can pretend it is a magic thing that can do anything we want," Lily said, smiling.
+
+"OK, Lily, that sounds fun. But we need a bad guy to stop us. Someone who wants to take our magic thing away," Tom said, thinking hard.
+
+They looked around the box and saw a dark cloth with a hole in it. They pulled it out and saw that it was a mask. It had a scary face with big eyes and a mouth full of teeth.
+
+"Wow, this is perfect. This can be our bad guy. He is an unknown figure who wants to steal our magic thing. We have to hide it from him and use it to stop him," Lily said, putting the mask on her head.
+
+"OK, Lily, you be the bad guy and I be the hero. You try to find me and I try to escape. And we use the magic thing to help us," Tom said, grabbing the metal thing and running away.
+
+Lily put on the mask and chased after Tom. She made loud noises and said, "Give me the magic thing, hero. I want it for myself. It is mine, mine, mine!"
+
+Tom hid behind a chair and said, "No, bad guy, you can't have it. It is ours, ours, ours! We use it to make good things happen. Like rainbows and cupcakes and puppies!"
+
+They played for a long time, using the metal thing to make different sounds and lights. They had a lot of fun and forgot about everything else. They did not hear their parents calling them for lunch. They did not see the clock ticking by. They only saw their magic thing and their game. They were happy.
+Sara was a shy girl. She did not like to talk to new people. She liked to play with her toys in her room. She had a doll, a teddy bear, a ball and a book.
+
+One day, her mom said, "Sara, we have to move to a new house. We have to pack our things and go to a new world."
+
+Sara was scared. She did not want to move. She did not want to leave her toys and her room. She did not want to go to a new world. She said, "No, mom, I don't want to move. I want to stay here."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I know, Sara, moving is hard. But we have to go. The new world is not so bad. You will make new friends and have fun. And you can take your toys with you. They will be happy to see the new world too."
+
+Sara looked at her toys. She saw that her doll was smiling, her teddy bear was nodding, her ball was bouncing and her book was shining. She thought, maybe they want to move. Maybe they want to see the new world. Maybe she could be brave and try to see the new world too.
+
+She said, "Okay, mom, I will move. But can I hold your hand?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, Sara, I will hold your hand. And I will always love you, no matter where we go."
+
+Sara smiled and hugged her mom. She packed her toys in a big box and got ready to move. She was still shy, but she was also curious. She wondered what the new world would be like. She hoped it would be nice.
+Sara and Ben like to sort their toys. They have a big box with many toys. They take out the toys and put them in different piles. They have a pile for cars, a pile for dolls, a pile for blocks and a pile for animals.
+
+One day, they are sorting their toys when they hear a loud noise. They look out the window and see a big truck. The truck has a big arm that can pick up things. The truck stops near their house and the arm picks up their big box with their toys.
+
+"Hey, that's our box!" Sara shouts. "Stop, stop, stop!"
+
+Ben runs to the door and opens it. He tries to chase the truck, but it is too fast. He falls on the ground and hurts his knee. He cries.
+
+Sara runs to Ben and hugs him. She is confused. Why did the truck take their box? Where are their toys? How can they get them back?
+
+"Don't cry, Ben," Sara says. "We can find our toys. Maybe the truck will bring them back. Maybe the truck made a mistake. Maybe we can ask someone for help."
+
+She helps Ben get up and they go back inside. They look for their mom and dad. They hope they can sort out their problem. They miss their toys.
+Lila and Tom were friends who liked to jog in the park. They jogged fast and slow, up and down, and had fun. One day, they saw a man selling balloons near the pond. The balloons were big and colorful, and they wanted one.
+
+"Can we have a balloon, please?" Lila asked the man.
+
+"Sure, but you have to pay me one coin for each balloon," the man said.
+
+Lila and Tom had no coins, but they had a tasty sandwich that they brought for lunch. They decided to trade their sandwich for two balloons, one red and one blue.
+
+"Thank you, here are your balloons," the man said, taking the sandwich. "But be careful, don't let them fly away."
+
+Lila and Tom were happy with their balloons. They tied them to their wrists and jogged around the park. They jogged fast and slow, up and down, and had fun. But they did not notice that the sandwich man was following them.
+
+The sandwich man was hungry and greedy. He wanted to eat the sandwich and have the balloons too. He waited for a chance to grab the balloons from Lila and Tom. When they jogged near the pond, he saw his chance. He ran up to them and snatched the balloons from their wrists.
+
+"Hey, give us back our balloons!" Lila and Tom shouted.
+
+"No, they are mine now. And so is the sandwich. Bye-bye!" the sandwich man said, running away.
+
+Lila and Tom were sad and angry. They had no balloons and no sandwich. They had nothing to eat and nothing to play with. They cried and went home.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't trade your food for things that can fly away. And don't trust strangers who want to take your things.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play hide and seek in the park. Lily is good at hiding. Ben is good at finding.
+
+One day, they see a big bowl near a tree. The bowl is full of water. Lily has an idea.
+
+"Let's hide in the bowl!" she says to Ben. "It will be fun!"
+
+Ben nods. They run to the bowl and jump in. The water is cold and wet. They giggle and splash.
+
+But then, they hear a loud bark. A big dog is coming. The dog is thirsty. He sees the bowl and runs to it. He wants to drink the water.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They do not like the dog. They think he is mean. They duck under the water and hold their breath.
+
+The dog reaches the bowl and sniffs. He smells something funny. He sees two heads in the water. He is surprised. He thinks they are toys. He is friendly. He wants to play.
+
+He barks again and wags his tail. He puts his paw in the bowl and tries to touch the heads. Lily and Ben feel the paw and scream. They jump out of the bowl and run away.
+
+The dog chases them and barks. He thinks it is a game. He is happy.
+
+Lily and Ben are not happy. They are wet and cold and scared. They run to their moms and hug them.
+
+They do not want to hide in the bowl again. They learn a lesson. Hiding in a bowl is not a good idea.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Lily had a pink bunny and Ben had a blue car.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud sound outside. It was like a big wind that made everything shake. They looked out the window and saw a big, dark cloud that spun around and around. It was a tornado!
+
+"Mommy, Daddy, what is that?" Lily asked, scared.
+
+"It's a tornado, sweetie. It's a very strong wind that can pick up things and move them around. We have to go to the basement and stay safe," Mommy said, grabbing Lily and Ben and taking them downstairs.
+
+They went to the basement and closed the door. They heard the tornado roar and rumble above them. They hugged each other and waited for it to go away.
+
+After a while, the sound stopped. Mommy opened the door and looked outside. The tornado was gone, but it had left a lot of mess. Some trees were broken, some houses were damaged, and some things were flying in the air.
+
+"Look, Mommy, what is that?" Ben pointed to something shiny in the sky.
+
+"It's a rainbow, honey. It's a brilliant band of colors that appears after the rain. It's very beautiful, isn't it?" Mommy said, smiling.
+
+"Yes, it is. Can we touch it?" Lily asked, curious.
+
+"No, we can't. It's too far away. And it will melt soon, like ice cream. It's only there for a little while. But we can enjoy it while it lasts," Mommy said, holding Lily and Ben close.
+
+They watched the rainbow together and felt happy. They knew they were safe and loved. The tornado was scary, but the rainbow was brilliant.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy soldiers in the garden. They liked to pretend they were in a war and make loud noises. They had two teams, red and blue, and they tried to capture each other's flags.
+
+"Bang, bang, you're dead!" Tom shouted, pointing his toy gun at Lily.
+
+"No, I'm not, you missed!" Lily said, hiding behind a bush.
+
+"Yes, you are, I saw you fall!" Tom said, running towards her.
+
+They started to argue and push each other. They did not hear their mom calling them from the kitchen.
+
+"Tom, Lily, come inside now! It's time for lunch!" Mom said.
+
+But they did not listen. They were too busy fighting.
+
+Mom came out to the garden and saw them. She was very angry.
+
+"Stop it, both of you! How many times have I told you not to play war? It's not a nice game. You could hurt each other or break something. And you did not obey me when I called you. You are very naughty!" Mom said.
+
+She took their toy soldiers and their flags and put them in a bag.
+
+"You are punished. No more playing with these toys for a week. And no dessert for you today. Now go to your rooms and think about what you did." Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily felt very sad and sorry. They knew they had done wrong. They wished they had played a lovely game instead of a war game. They hugged each other and said sorry.
+
+"Mom, we're sorry. We won't play war again. Can we have our toys back?" They asked.
+
+Mom looked at them and sighed.
+
+"Maybe later, if you behave well. But first, you have to eat your lunch and say sorry to each other again. And next time, listen to me when I call you. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They followed Mom to the kitchen. They hoped she would forgive them and let them play again. They learned their lesson. War was not a good game.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They had a toy gun and a cross. They pretended to be cowboys and robbers.
+
+"Bang, bang, bang! I shoot you, robber!" Tom said, pointing the toy gun at Lily.
+
+"No, you don't! I have a cross. It protects me from your bullets!" Lily said, holding the cross in front of her.
+
+They ran around the park, chasing and hiding from each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, a big dog came out of nowhere. It barked and growled at them. It had sharp teeth and a long tail. It looked mean and scary.
+
+Tom and Lily were afraid. They dropped the toy gun and the cross. They ran to the bench where their mom was sitting. They felt helpless.
+
+"Mom, mom, help us! There is a big dog!" they cried.
+
+Mom saw the dog. She got up and shouted at it. "Go away, dog! Leave my kids alone!"
+
+The dog heard mom. It stopped barking and growling. It turned around and ran away.
+
+Tom and Lily hugged mom. They were safe and happy.
+
+"Thank you, mom. You saved us from the big dog!" they said.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed them. "You're welcome, my loves. I'm glad you're okay. But next time, be careful when you play. And don't forget your toy gun and your cross. They are yours."
+Lily and Max were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to pretend they were racing on a big track, or fixing their cars at the mechanic shop. Lily had a red car and Max had a blue car.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I'm going to win!" Lily said, making her car zoom past Max's.
+
+"No, you're not, I'm faster!" Max said, chasing after her.
+
+They laughed and had fun, until Lily felt a tickle in her nose. She tried to ignore it, but it got worse. She stopped her car and rubbed her nose.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" Max asked, noticing her face.
+
+"I think I have to sneeze," Lily said, feeling a big sneeze coming.
+
+"Ah, ah, ah..." She opened her mouth and closed her eyes.
+
+"CHOO!" She sneezed loudly, making her car fly out of her hand and land on the couch.
+
+"Wow, that was a big sneeze!" Max said, surprised.
+
+"Sorry, Max, I didn't mean to throw my car," Lily said, picking it up.
+
+"It's okay, Lily, I don't mind. Do you feel better now?" Max asked, kindly.
+
+"Yes, I do, thank you. Do you want to play some more?" Lily asked, smiling.
+
+"Sure, I do. Let's go to the mechanic and fix our cars. Maybe they need some oil or gas," Max said, being playful.
+
+"Okay, let's go. Vroom, vroom!" Lily said, following him.
+
+They went to the mechanic shop, which was a cardboard box with some stickers and tools. They pretended to check their cars and make them run better. They had a lot of fun, and forgot about the sneeze.
+Lily was hungry. She saw a big bunch of bananas on the table. She wanted to eat one. But she was nervous. Mommy said she had to ask before she took anything.
+
+She looked around. Mommy was in the kitchen. Daddy was in the living room. They were busy. Maybe they would not see her. Maybe they would not mind.
+
+She tiptoed to the table. She reached for a banana. She pulled it off the bunch. She felt happy. She had a banana.
+
+But then she heard a voice. "Lily, what are you doing?" It was Daddy. He saw her. He sounded angry.
+
+Lily was scared. She dropped the banana. She ran to her room. She hid under her bed. She felt sad. She did a bad thing. She took a banana without asking. She was sorry.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play with water. They had a big spray bottle that they filled with water and sprayed on each other, on the plants, and on the cat. The cat did not like it and ran away.
+
+One day, they saw a big basket on the porch of their neighbor, Mrs. Lee. Mrs. Lee was a wealthy lady who lived alone and had many nice things. Tim and Kim were curious and wanted to see what was in the basket. They sneaked over and peeked inside. They saw many fruits and flowers and a card that said "Happy Birthday, Mrs. Lee!"
+
+Tim and Kim thought that the basket was too big and too pretty for Mrs. Lee. They decided to take some fruits and flowers for themselves. They grabbed some apples, oranges, and roses and put them in their pockets. Then they ran back to their yard and hid behind the fence.
+
+They were about to eat the fruits and smell the flowers when they heard a knock on the door. It was Mrs. Lee. She looked sad and angry. She said to their mom, "Someone took some of the fruits and flowers from my birthday basket. Do you know who did it?"
+
+Their mom was surprised and said, "No, I don't. But I'll ask my children. Tim, Kim, come here!"
+
+Tim and Kim came out from behind the fence. They looked guilty and scared. They saw the fruits and flowers in their pockets and the spray bottle on the ground. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+Their mom asked them, "Did you take some of the fruits and flowers from Mrs. Lee's basket?"
+
+Tim and Kim nodded and said, "Yes, we did. We're sorry."
+
+Their mom said, "That was very wrong and rude of you. You should not take things that are not yours. You should respect other people's property and feelings. How would you feel if someone took your spray bottle or your toys?"
+
+Tim and Kim said, "We would feel sad and mad."
+
+Their mom said, "That's how Mrs. Lee feels. You should apologize to her and give back what you took. And you should also do something nice for her to make up for your mistake."
+
+Tim and Kim said, "Okay, we will. We're sorry, Mrs. Lee."
+
+Mrs. Lee said, "Thank you for being honest and sorry. I forgive you. But please don't do it again."
+
+Tim and Kim gave back the fruits and flowers to Mrs. Lee. They also gave her their spray bottle as a gift. They said, "Happy birthday, Mrs. Lee. We hope you like our spray bottle. You can use it to water your plants or play with water."
+
+Mrs. Lee smiled and said, "Thank you, Tim and Kim. That's very kind of you. I like your spray bottle. Maybe we can play with water together sometime."
+
+Tim and Kim smiled and said, "Yes, we would like that."
+
+They learned their lesson and became friends with Mrs. Lee. They never took things that were not theirs again. They also learned to share and be generous with what they had. They realized that being wealthy is not about having many nice things, but about having a good heart.
+Anna and Ben like to go to the park with their mom. They see many things in the park: trees, flowers, swings, slides, and pigeons. Pigeons are gray birds that walk on the ground and fly in the sky. Sometimes they make noises like "coo coo".
+
+One day, Anna and Ben see a pigeon that is different from the others. It has thick feathers that are white and black and red. It looks very pretty and shiny. Anna and Ben want to touch it, but the pigeon is shy and runs away.
+
+"Come back, pigeon!" Anna says. "We want to be your friends!"
+
+"Maybe it is scared of us," Ben says. "Maybe we can make it happy."
+
+"How?" Anna asks.
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. Then he says, "Maybe we can dance for it. Pigeons like music, right?"
+
+Anna nods. She likes to dance too. She and Ben start to move their arms and legs and sing a song. They dance like butterflies and frogs and stars. They hope the pigeon will like their dance.
+
+The pigeon watches them from a distance. It sees them dancing and hears them singing. It feels curious and brave. It decides to join them. It flaps its wings and hops on the ground. It coos along with their song. It dances with Anna and Ben.
+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They smile and clap and hug the pigeon. The pigeon feels happy too. It nuzzles and pecks them. It has made new friends.
+
+Mom sees them dancing and playing with the pigeon. She takes a picture with her phone. She thinks they look very cute and funny. She says, "What a wonderful day in the park!"
+Anna and Ben were playing in the yard. They liked to run and jump and make noise. They had a ball and a hoop and a bike. They were having fun.
+
+But then they heard a loud roar. It came from the big bush near the fence. They stopped and looked. They saw a big, furry, brown thing. It had sharp teeth and claws. It was a bear!
+
+They were frightened. They dropped their toys and ran to the house. They shouted, "Mom! Mom! There is a bear in the yard!"
+
+Mom was in the kitchen. She heard them and came out. She saw the bear too. She was surprised. She said, "Don't worry, kids. It's not a real bear. It's a costume. It's Mr. Lee, our neighbor. He is playing a trick on us. He likes to make jokes."
+
+She waved to Mr. Lee. He waved back and took off the costume. He smiled and said, "Sorry, kids. I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to have some fun. Do you want to try on the costume?"
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other. They were not frightened anymore. They were curious. They said, "Yes, please. Can we?"
+
+They went to the yard and put on the costume. They took turns to roar and pretend to be a bear. They laughed and played. They had fun. They learned to listen and not to be afraid.
+One day, Tom and Lily were playing with their shapes. They had a box with many shapes: circles, squares, triangles, stars, and more. They liked to make pictures with the shapes on the floor.
+
+"Look, I made a house with a square and a triangle!" Lily said.
+
+"That's nice, but I made a rocket with a star and a circle!" Tom said.
+
+They were having fun, until they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Spot. Spot was running around the room, barking and wagging his tail. He was very excited, because he saw a cat outside the window.
+
+Spot ran over the shapes, and knocked them all over. He made a big mess. Tom and Lily were very angry.
+
+"Spot, stop it! You ruined our shapes!" Tom shouted.
+
+"Bad dog! Go away!" Lily cried.
+
+Spot did not listen. He kept running and barking. He was too crazy.
+
+Tom and Lily started to panic. They did not know what to do. They were afraid that Spot would break something, or hurt himself, or get in trouble.
+
+They ran to their mom, who was in the kitchen. They told her what happened.
+
+"Mom, mom, Spot is going crazy! He is making a mess with our shapes! He is scaring us!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+Mom looked at them, and then at Spot. She saw that Spot was not crazy, he was just playful. He wanted to have fun, too.
+
+She smiled, and said, "Don't worry, kids. Spot is not crazy, he is just a dog. He does not know that your shapes are important to you. He thinks they are toys, like his ball. He wants to play with you, not ruin your game."
+
+She went to the living room, and called Spot. She gave him his ball, and threw it outside. Spot ran after it, happy and wagging his tail.
+
+"See? He just needed some attention and exercise. He is a good dog, he just has a lot of energy. Next time, you can play with him, too. Maybe you can teach him some shapes, or make him a house or a rocket. He will love that." Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry for Spot. They realized that he was not crazy, he was just lonely. They decided to be nicer to him, and share their shapes with him. They hugged him, and said, "We're sorry, Spot. We love you. You can play with us, too."
+
+Spot licked their faces, and wagged his tail. He was happy. He had a family that cared for him.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't judge others by their actions, try to understand their feelings. Be kind and generous, and you will make friends.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they would try to catch the ball with their hands or their feet.
+
+"Max, kick the ball to me!" Lily shouted.
+
+"OK, Lily, here it comes!" Max said. He kicked the ball hard and it flew in the air.
+
+Lily ran to catch the ball, but she did not see a big dog coming from the other side. The dog saw the ball and wanted to play too. He jumped and caught the ball in his mouth.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Lily said. She tried to get the ball from the dog, but the dog growled and did not yield.
+
+"Be careful, Lily, the dog might bite you!" Max said. He ran to help Lily, but the dog was stronger and faster. He ran away with the ball.
+
+Lily and Max were sad and angry. They lost their ball and their game. They walked back to their mom, who was sitting on a bench.
+
+"What happened, kids? Why are you so upset?" Mom asked.
+
+"A big dog took our ball and did not give it back!" Lily said.
+
+"That's not nice of the dog. I'm sorry, kids. How about we go home and have some dessert? I made some cookies for you. They are mild and sweet, just like you." Mom said.
+
+"Really? Cookies? Yay!" Lily and Max said. They forgot about the ball and the dog. They hugged their mom and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You are the best!" Lily and Max said.
+
+They went home and ate the cookies. They were happy and full. They played with their toys and read some books. They had a good day after all.
+Anna and Ben were going on a trip with Mom and Dad. They had big bags of luggage that they put in the car. Anna had a small bag with her favorite things. She had a book, a ball, and a furry bear. Ben had a small bag too. He had a car, a puzzle, and a furry lion.
+
+They drove for a long time. Anna and Ben looked out the window and saw trees, houses, and cows. They sang songs and played games. They were happy and excited. Mom and Dad smiled and talked.
+
+They got to a big house where Grandma and Grandpa lived. They got out of the car and took their luggage. Grandma and Grandpa hugged them and said hello. They were happy to see them. They went inside the house and saw a big cake and a lot of toys. They were happy to play.
+
+Anna and Ben found a cozy room where they could sleep. They put their bags on the bed and took out their furry friends. They hugged them and said good night. They leaned on the pillows and closed their eyes. They were happy and sleepy. Mom and Dad kissed them and said sweet dreams. They turned off the light and left the room. They were happy and proud.
+Tom and Anna like to play in the park. They have a big box of toys. They can act like animals, or pirates, or superheroes. They have fun together.
+
+One day, they see a new boy in the park. He has a big stick of wood. He runs around and hits the trees and the swings with his wood. He makes loud noises. He does not look happy.
+
+Tom and Anna want to be nice. They go to the new boy and say hello. They ask him his name. They ask him if he wants to play with them.
+
+The new boy does not answer. He looks at Tom and Anna with a mean face. He says, "Go away! These are my toys! You can't play with them!" He pushes Tom and Anna with his wood. He is very rude.
+
+Tom and Anna are sad and scared. They run away from the new boy. They find a quiet spot under a big tree. They hug each other and share their toys. They say, "We don't like the new boy. He is not nice. He is not fun. He needs to learn how to act."
+Lily was a big sister now. She had a baby brother named Max. He was very small and adorable. He slept in a crib in Lily's room. Lily liked to watch him and talk to him.
+
+One night, Lily heard Max make a noise. He was awake and hungry. Lily got out of her bed and went to his crib. She saw his eyes and mouth open. He was crying.
+
+"Shh, Max, it's okay," Lily said. She picked him up and hugged him. He felt warm and soft. She rocked him gently. "Don't cry, Max. I'm here. I love you."
+
+She walked to the door and opened it. She called for Mommy and Daddy. "Mommy, Daddy, Max is awake. He needs milk. Can you help me?"
+
+Mommy and Daddy came to the door. They saw Lily holding Max. They smiled and praised her.
+
+"You're such a good sister, Lily," Mommy said. She took Max from Lily and kissed him. "Thank you for taking care of him. He's lucky to have you."
+
+Daddy hugged Lily and lifted her up. He carried her back to her bed. "You're very brave and kind, Lily," he said. He tucked her in and kissed her. "We're proud of you. We love you."
+
+Lily felt happy and sleepy. She closed her eyes and listened to Mommy and Daddy sing to Max. She dreamed of playing with him and teaching him new words. She was a big sister now.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play dress up. They have many costumes in a big sack. They can be pirates, princesses, animals, or superheroes.
+
+One day, they want to surprise their mom. They put on their most enthusiastic costumes. Lily is a fairy with wings and a wand. Ben is a dragon with scales and a tail. They hide behind the couch and wait for mom to come home.
+
+When mom opens the door, they jump out and shout, "Surprise! We are a fairy and a dragon!"
+
+Mom is very happy. She hugs them and says, "You look wonderful! What a nice surprise!"
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They are proud of their costumes. They ask mom, "Do you want to play dress up with us?"
+
+Mom nods. She says, "Of course! Let me see what I can find in the sack."
+
+She reaches into the sack and pulls out a costume. She is a clown with a big nose and a funny hat. She makes silly faces and noises.
+
+Lily and Ben laugh. They have fun playing dress up with mom. They are a happy family.
+Lila and Sam were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big ball that was yellow and shiny. They called it the sun ball. They liked to roll it, kick it, and throw it in the air.
+
+One day, they saw a man walking by their house. He was bald and had no hair on his head. He was wearing a hat, but it fell off when the wind blew. Lila and Sam saw his head and laughed. It was shiny like their sun ball.
+
+"Hey, look at that man!" Lila said. "He has a sun ball on his head!"
+
+"Maybe he is the sun man!" Sam said. "Maybe he can make the world bright and warm!"
+
+They ran to the man and asked him. "Hello, sun man! Are you the sun? Can you shine on the world?"
+
+The man was surprised and smiled. He was not the sun, but he liked the children's imagination. He bent down and said, "No, I am not the sun. I am just a man who has no hair. But I like your sun ball. It is very pretty and fun. Can I play with you?"
+
+Lila and Sam nodded and gave him their sun ball. They played together for a while, rolling, kicking, and throwing the ball. The man was happy and the children were happy. They did not care that he was bald and shiny. They liked him because he was kind and friendly. They made a new friend that day.
+Lily and Tom were playing by the river. They liked to throw stones and watch the water splash. Sometimes they saw fish and frogs and birds. They were happy and careful.
+
+One day, they saw a big green thing in the water. It had a long tail and many teeth. It was a crocodile. Lily and Tom were scared. They wanted to run away, but the crocodile was faster. It came out of the water and opened its mouth.
+
+"Help, help!" Lily and Tom shouted. They hoped someone would hear them and save them.
+
+But then, they heard another voice. It was a friendly voice. It said, "Don't be afraid, little ones. I am here to help you. I am a kind crocodile. I don't want to eat you. I want to be your friend."
+
+Lily and Tom looked at the voice. It was another crocodile. It was smaller and lighter than the first one. It had a smile and a bow on its head. It was a girl crocodile.
+
+The girl crocodile waved at Lily and Tom. She said, "Hello, I am Lola. I live in this river. I saw that bad crocodile trying to hurt you. He is mean and greedy. He doesn't like anyone. But I do. I like to make new friends. Will you be my friends?"
+
+Lily and Tom were surprised and curious. They had never met a kind crocodile before. They wondered if they could trust her. They looked at each other and nodded. They said, "Hello, Lola. We are Lily and Tom. We like to play by the river. We are happy to meet you. We can be your friends."
+
+Lola was glad. She said, "Thank you, Lily and Tom. You are very nice. Come, let me show you my home. I have a cozy cave and many toys. We can have fun together. But first, let me scare away that bad crocodile. He won't bother us again."
+
+Lola roared at the bad crocodile. She showed her teeth and swung her tail. The bad crocodile was afraid. He ran back to the water and swam away. He never came back.
+
+Lily and Tom cheered. They thanked Lola for saving them. They followed her to her cave. They played with her toys and shared her snacks. They had a wonderful time. They became good friends with Lola. They learned that not all crocodiles are the same. Some are kind and some are not. They decided to always be kind to everyone.
+One day, a woman and a boy went to the park. The woman was the boy's mom. She was friendly and kind. She liked to play with the boy and teach him new things.
+
+The boy liked to run and jump and swing. He also liked to talk and ask questions. He wanted to know everything. Sometimes, he did not listen to his mom. He thought he knew better.
+
+"Mom, can I go to the pond?" the boy asked. He saw some ducks and fish in the water. He wanted to feed them and touch them.
+
+"Wait, my son," the mom said. "The pond is not safe. You have to stay with me. We can watch the ducks and fish from here."
+
+But the boy did not listen. He ran to the pond. He did not see the sign that said "No Swimming". He did not hear his mom calling him. He only saw the ducks and fish.
+
+He threw some bread to the ducks. They came closer. He reached out his hand to touch them. He leaned over the edge of the pond. He slipped and fell into the water.
+
+He was scared and cold. He could not swim. He cried for help. He wished he had listened to his mom.
+
+The mom heard his cry. She ran to the pond. She saw him in the water. She jumped in and grabbed him. She pulled him out and hugged him.
+
+"Are you okay, my son?" she asked. She was worried and angry. She checked him for injuries. She wrapped him in a towel.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," the boy said. He was sorry and ashamed. He realized he had been foolish and disobedient. He hugged his mom back.
+
+"I love you, my son," the mom said. She loved him and forgave him. She taught him a lesson. She said, "You have to listen to me. I know what is best for you. I want you to be safe and happy."
+
+The boy nodded. He learned his lesson. He said, "I love you, mom. I will listen to you. You are friendly and kind."
+Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play with blocks. They can make many things with blocks. They can make cars, boats, towers and houses.
+
+One day, they want to make a big house with blocks. They put many blocks on the floor. They add more and more blocks. They make walls and a roof. They make windows and a door. They are happy with their house.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is their dog, Rex. Rex is big and strong. He likes to run and jump. He sees the house of blocks. He thinks it is a toy. He runs to the house. He jumps on the house. He breaks the house.
+
+Tim and Kim are fearful. They cry. They say, "No, Rex, no! Bad dog! You broke our house!"
+
+Rex is sorry. He does not want to make Tim and Kim sad. He wags his tail. He licks their faces. He tries to say sorry.
+
+Tim and Kim stop crying. They hug Rex. They say, "It's okay, Rex. We know you did not mean it. We love you. But please, do not break our house again."
+
+They smile. They pick up the blocks. They start to make a new house. They make it stronger. They hope Rex will not break it again. They have fun with blocks and Rex.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They hop on the grass and the swings. They see a big pile of waste near the bins. It is smelly and dirty.
+
+"Who put this waste here?" Lily asks. "It is not good for the park."
+
+"I don't know," Tom says. "Maybe some bad people. They don't care about the park."
+
+Lily and Tom are sad. They want to help the park. They see some bags and gloves near the bins. They have an idea.
+
+"Let's pick up the waste and put it in the bins," Lily says. "It is easy and fun. Then the park will be clean and happy."
+
+"OK," Tom says. "Let's do it. We are good friends of the park."
+
+Lily and Tom put on the bags and gloves. They hop to the pile of waste. They pick up the waste and put it in the bins. They hop back to the grass and the swings. They are proud and happy.
+
+"Look, we did it!" Lily says. "The park is clean and happy. Thank you, Tom."
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Tom says. "You are a good friend. Let's play some more."
+
+Lily and Tom play in the park. They hop and laugh. They are good friends of the park. The park is good to them.
+Lily and Ben were going to the park with Mom. They liked the park. It had swings and slides and a big pond. But today, there was a lot of fog. The fog was white and thick and cold. They could not see the pond or the trees or the birds.
+
+"Mom, can we go home?" Lily asked. She was cold and bored. She wanted to play with her dolls.
+
+"No, sweetie, we have to wait for Dad. He is coming soon. He has a surprise for us." Mom said. She smiled and hugged Lily.
+
+"What surprise?" Ben asked. He was curious and impatient. He wanted to see the surprise.
+
+"You will see. It is something very special and beautiful. It can glow in the dark." Mom said. She winked at Ben.
+
+"Glow in the dark? Like a star?" Ben asked. He liked stars. They were bright and shiny and far away.
+
+"Something like that. But not a star. Something you can touch and hold." Mom said. She looked at her watch. "Dad should be here any minute."
+
+They waited and waited. The fog did not go away. It was getting darker and darker. Lily and Ben were getting tired and hungry. They wondered where Dad was.
+
+Then, they heard a car horn. They looked and saw Dad's car. It was coming through the fog. It stopped near them. Dad got out of the car. He had a big box in his hands.
+
+"Hi, everyone! Sorry I'm late. I had to pick up the surprise. Are you ready to see it?" Dad said. He was happy and excited.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Lily and Ben said. They ran to Dad. They wanted to see the surprise.
+
+Dad opened the box. Inside, there were many small glass jars. Each jar had a light inside. The lights were different colors. They were red and blue and green and yellow and pink and purple. They were glowing in the dark. They were very pretty.
+
+"These are fireflies. They are insects that can make their own light. They are a gift for you. You can keep them in your room and watch them glow at night. They are like stars, but alive." Dad said. He gave a jar to Lily and a jar to Ben.
+
+"Wow! They are amazing! Thank you, Dad!" Lily and Ben said. They were happy and amazed. They held the jars and looked at the fireflies.
+
+Mom and Dad smiled and hugged them. They were happy too. They forgot about the fog and the cold. They only saw the glow of the fireflies. They were like a family of stars.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they decided to trade some of their toys with each other. Tom gave Lily his red car and Lily gave Tom her yellow doll. They were happy with their trade and played with their new toys.
+
+But then, Tom saw Lily zip the car on the floor and make loud noises. He wanted his car back. He said to Lily, "Give me my car! I don't like the doll!" Lily said, "No, it's my car now! You gave it to me! I don't like the doll either!" They started to fight and pull the toys from each other.
+
+Their grandma, who was elderly and kind, heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting and said, "Stop, stop! Why are you fighting? You both have nice toys. Why don't you share them and play together?" She took the car and the doll and gave them to both of them. She said, "You can take turns to play with the car and the doll. Or you can play with both of them at the same time. Or you can trade them back if you want. But don't fight. Fighting is not nice."
+
+Tom and Lily listened to their grandma and felt sorry. They said, "Sorry, grandma. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Tom." They hugged each other and thanked their grandma. They decided to share the car and the doll and play together. They zipped the car and hugged the doll and had fun. Their grandma smiled and watched them. She was happy that they were happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. But today, they are sad. Their grandma is far away. She cannot come to their birthday party.
+
+Mom says, "Don't be sad, my loves. Grandma loves you very much. She has a surprise for you. She will send it to you soon."
+
+Anna and Ben wonder what the surprise is. They hope it is something fun. They wait and wait for the mailman.
+
+One day, the mailman comes. He has a big box. He says, "This is for Anna and Ben. It is from Grandma. Happy birthday!"
+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They run to the box. They open it. Inside, they see two teddy bears. They are soft and fluffy. They have ribbons around their necks. They have buttons on their paws.
+
+Anna and Ben press the buttons. The teddy bears start to talk. They say, "Hello, Anna. Hello, Ben. We are your new friends. We are from Grandma. She loves you very much. Happy birthday!"
+
+Anna and Ben hug the teddy bears. They say, "Thank you, Grandma. We love you too. We love our new friends. They are the best surprise ever!"
+
+The teddy bears are very noisy. They talk and sing and laugh. Anna and Ben talk and sing and laugh with them. Mom smiles. She says, "What a noisy surprise! But I'm glad you like it. Grandma is very clever. She knows how to make you happy."
+Lily liked to mail letters to her grandma. She would draw pictures of her toys, her dog, and her friends. She would write her name in big letters. She would put a stamp on the envelope and give it to her mom. Mom would take it to the big box with a flag.
+
+One day, Lily found a lime in the kitchen. It was green and round and smelled sour. She wondered what it was. She asked her mom.
+
+"That's a lime, Lily. It's a fruit. You can squeeze it and make juice. But be careful, it's very sour. You might not like it."
+
+Lily was curious. She wanted to try the lime. She asked her mom if she could have it.
+
+"Sure, Lily. But don't eat it all. Just take a little bite. And don't make a mess."
+
+Lily nodded. She took the lime and ran to her room. She put it on her desk next to her letters. She decided to mail the lime to her grandma. She thought grandma would like it. She found an envelope and put the lime inside. She wrote "To Grandma" on the front. She put a stamp on it. She was very proud.
+
+She ran to her mom and gave her the envelope. She said, "Mom, I mailed a lime to grandma. She will love it."
+
+Mom looked at the envelope. It was heavy and wet. She felt the lime inside. She was surprised. She said, "Lily, you mailed a lime to grandma? Why did you do that?"
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Because I love her. And I wanted to share the lime with her. It's a fruit. It's sour. She will like it."
+
+Mom sighed. She said, "Lily, that's very sweet of you. But you can't mail a lime to grandma. It will go bad. It will make a mess. It will make grandma sad. She won't be able to open it. She won't be able to see your pictures. She won't be able to read your name. She will be sorry."
+
+Lily frowned. She said, "Oh no. I don't want to make grandma sad. I don't want to make a mess. I don't want to be sorry. What can I do?"
+
+Mom hugged her. She said, "Don't worry, Lily. We can fix this. We can take the envelope back. We can get a new one. We can mail your letters and pictures. We can keep the lime. We can make juice. We can call grandma and tell her we love her. She will be happy."
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Okay, mom. Let's do that. I'm sorry I mailed a lime to grandma. I love her. I love you."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "I love you too, Lily. You're a good girl. Come on, let's go."
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with a path that went up and down in a zigzag. Ben wanted to go up the hill and see what was on the other side. Lily was scared. She thought the hill was too high and steep.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go up the hill!" Ben said. "It will be fun!"
+
+"No, Ben, I don't want to go. It looks scary. What if we fall?" Lily said.
+
+"Don't be silly, Lily. We can manage. We just have to be careful and follow the path. It will be safe. Please, Lily, come with me!" Ben said.
+
+Ben took Lily's hand and tried to pull her to the hill. Lily resisted. She did not want to go. She started to cry.
+
+"Ben, stop it! You are hurting me! I don't want to go! Leave me alone!" Lily said.
+
+Ben let go of Lily's hand. He was angry. He wanted to go up the hill and have an adventure. He did not like Lily's crying. He thought she was a baby.
+
+"Fine, Lily, stay here. I don't need you. I can go up the hill by myself. You are a baby and a coward!" Ben said.
+
+Ben ran to the hill and started to climb the zigzag path. He did not look back at Lily. He did not care if she was sad or scared. He only cared about himself.
+
+Lily watched Ben go up the hill. She felt sad and scared. She wanted Ben to come back and play with her. She did not like being alone. She wished Ben was not so mean. She wished they could be friends again.
+Lily liked to dive in the pool. She wore a mask and a tube to breathe. She saw many things under the water. She saw fish and plants and rocks. She saw an image of herself in the water. She smiled and waved at the image.
+
+One day, Lily saw something shiny under the water. She wanted to see what it was. She dived deeper and deeper. She saw a big shell with a pearl inside. She reached for the pearl, but a crab pinched her finger. She let go of the pearl and swam up fast.
+
+Lily was scared and hurt. She cried and looked for her mom. Her mom was on the side of the pool. She saw Lily and jumped in the water. She hugged Lily and kissed her finger. She said, "It's okay, Lily. You are safe. The crab was just protecting his home. Next time, be careful and don't dive too deep."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to see the pearl. It was so pretty." Her mom said, "I know, Lily. But some things are better to look at than to touch. Come on, let's go to the shallow end and play with your toys."
+
+Lily and her mom went to the shallow end and played with her toys. Lily forgot about the pearl and the crab. She had fun with her mom and felt safe. She still liked to dive in the pool, but she learned to respect the animals and their homes. She was happy and curious, but also careful and smart.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big orange dog. The dog has a collar with a tag. The tag says "Guard".
+
+"Wow, look at that dog!" Ben says. "He is so big and orange!"
+
+"Maybe he is a guard dog," Lily says. "Maybe he guards the park from bad people."
+
+They go closer to the dog. The dog sees them and wags his tail. He is not angry. He is friendly.
+
+"Hi, dog!" Lily says. "Can we pet you?"
+
+The dog nods his head. He likes to be petted. Lily and Ben stroke his fur. He is soft and warm.
+
+"Can we play with you?" Ben asks. "Do you have a ball?"
+
+The dog barks. He runs to a bush and brings back a ball. He drops the ball at Ben's feet. He wants to play fetch.
+
+"OK, let's play!" Ben says. He picks up the ball and throws it. The dog chases the ball and catches it. He brings it back to Ben. They do this again and again.
+
+Lily and Ben have fun with the dog. They laugh and run and play. The dog is happy too. He likes to have friends.
+
+After a while, they get tired. They lay on the grass and rest. The dog lays next to them and licks their faces. He is a good guard dog. He guards the park and his new friends.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play on the beach. They found a big anchor that was stuck in the sand. They thought it was cool and wanted to take it home.
+
+"Let's pull it out and drag it to our house," Tim said.
+
+"But it's too heavy and our mom will be mad," Kim said.
+
+"No, she won't. She will be happy that we found a treasure. Come on, help me," Tim said.
+
+They pulled and pulled, but the anchor did not move. They got tired and hungry. They looked at the sun and saw that it was almost time for dinner.
+
+"Oh no, we have to go back. Mom will cook for us and we don't want to miss it," Kim said.
+
+"OK, let's go. But we will come back tomorrow and try again," Tim said.
+
+They ran back to their house, but they did not see their mom. They saw a note on the table that said:
+
+"Dear Tim and Kim, I went to the store to buy some food for dinner. I will be back soon. Don't go anywhere. Love, Mom."
+
+They felt sad and scared. They did not know what to do. They waited and waited, but their mom did not come back. They heard a loud noise outside. They looked out the window and saw a big wave coming to the beach. It was a storm.
+
+The wave hit the anchor and made it fly in the air. It landed on their house and smashed it. Tim and Kim screamed and ran out. They saw their mom coming back from the store. She saw the anchor and the house and dropped her bags. She hugged them and cried.
+
+"I'm so sorry, my babies. I'm so glad you're OK. What happened? How did the anchor get here?" she asked.
+
+Tim and Kim looked at each other and felt ashamed. They told her the truth. They said they were sorry. They learned a lesson. They learned that they should not take things that are not theirs. They learned that they should listen to their mom and stay safe. They learned that playing on the beach is not always cool.
+Lily and Sam were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a secret spot under a big tree, where they hid their toys and snacks.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He was big and mean. He kicked their ball away and laughed. Lily and Sam were scared and angry. They ran to their secret spot and hoped he would not find them.
+
+But the new boy followed them. He saw their toys and snacks under the tree. He grabbed them and threw them around. He broke Lily's delicate doll and Sam's shiny car. He kicked their secret spot and made a big mess.
+
+Lily and Sam cried. They did not know what to do. They wished he would go away.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was Ben, their older brother. He had seen everything. He came to help them. He told the new boy to stop and leave. He said he was sorry for what he did. He gave back their toys and snacks. He said he was lonely and wanted to play.
+
+Lily and Sam looked at each other. They felt sorry for him too. They decided to give him a chance. They asked him if he wanted to join their secret spot. He said yes and smiled. He said his name was Max.
+
+They all became friends. They played and shared their toys and snacks. They kicked their ball and laughed. They had fun in the park. They had a new secret: Max.
+Lily and Ben are playing in their room. They have a big sheet and some pillows. They want to make a tent.
+
+"Let's do a tent with the sheet and the pillows," Lily says.
+
+"OK, I will help you," Ben says.
+
+They put the sheet over their bed and use the pillows to hold it. They crawl under the sheet. They have a flashlight and some toys.
+
+"Now we are in a tent," Lily says. "We can pretend we are camping."
+
+"Yeah, we can pretend we are camping," Ben says. "But this is a fake tent. It is not a real tent."
+
+Lily frowns. She does not like that Ben says their tent is fake.
+
+"No, it is not a fake tent. It is a real tent. We made it with our own hands," she says.
+
+Ben shakes his head. He does not agree with Lily.
+
+"No, it is a fake tent. It is not a real tent. A real tent is made of canvas and has poles and zippers," he says.
+
+Lily and Ben start to argue. They raise their voices. They pull the sheet and the pillows.
+
+"Stop it, stop it!" their mom says. She comes into their room. She sees the mess they made. She is not happy.
+
+"What are you doing? Why are you fighting?" she asks.
+
+Lily and Ben stop arguing. They look at their mom. They feel sorry.
+
+"We are sorry, mom. We were playing with the sheet and the pillows. We were doing a tent. But Ben said it was a fake tent. And I said it was a real tent. And we got mad at each other," Lily says.
+
+Mom sighs. She sits on the bed. She hugs Lily and Ben.
+
+"I see. Well, you know what? It doesn't matter if your tent is fake or real. What matters is that you have fun and you share and you be nice to each other. You can use your imagination and pretend anything you want. But you can't hurt each other or ruin the sheet and the pillows. Do you understand?" she says.
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They understand. They hug their mom back.
+
+"We understand, mom. We are sorry. We love you," they say.
+
+Mom smiles. She kisses them.
+
+"I love you too. Now, why don't you clean up this mess and then you can play with the sheet and the pillows again. But this time, no fighting, OK?" she says.
+
+Lily and Ben say OK. They clean up the mess. They do the tent again. They play nicely. They have fun. They are happy.
+Tommy wanted to play with his dog, Spot, outside. But it was dark and cold, and Mommy said no. Tommy was sad and angry. He did not listen to Mommy. He put on his coat and hat, and took Spot's leash. He opened the door and ran outside with Spot.
+
+"Tommy, come back!" Mommy shouted. "It's not safe outside!"
+
+But Tommy did not hear Mommy. He was too busy playing with Spot. He threw a stick and Spot ran after it. Tommy laughed and followed Spot. He did not see the big car coming fast on the road.
+
+The car honked and braked, but it was too late. It hit Spot and Tommy. Spot and Tommy flew in the air and landed on the ground. They did not move. They were hurt very bad.
+
+Mommy ran outside and saw what happened. She screamed and cried. She ran to Spot and Tommy and hugged them. She called for help, but it was too late. Spot and Tommy were gone. Mommy was alone and sad. She wished she had stopped Tommy from going outside. She wished she had said yes to playing inside. She wished she had said I love you to Tommy and Spot. But she did not. And now it was too late.
+Lily and Ben went to the park with Mom. They saw a big truck with many colors and a loud horn. The truck had a sign that said "Candy Land". Lily and Ben liked candy very much. They ran to the truck and waved to the man inside.
+
+The man smiled and opened the door. He gave Lily and Ben a big bag of candy. There were lollipops, gummies, chocolates and more. Lily and Ben said "Thank you" and "Wow". They opened the bag and tried some candy. It was very yummy. They shared some candy with Mom too.
+
+Mom said it was time to go home. Lily and Ben did not want to leave. They wanted more candy. But Mom said they had enough. She said they could have some more candy later, after dinner. Lily and Ben nodded. They said "Bye" to the man and the truck. They waved again and walked with Mom. They were happy and full of candy.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they are naughty and do not listen to Mom and Dad.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad have to go to work. They ask Grandma to watch Sara and Tom. Grandma is nice and kind, but she does not like noise and mess.
+
+Sara and Tom are bored. They do not want to watch TV or read. They want to have fun. They see a big chair in the living room. It is old and soft. They think it is a good place to play.
+
+They climb on the chair and pretend it is a boat. They make waves with their arms and shout "Ahoy, matey!" They lean on the back of the chair and rock it. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But they do not see that the chair is breaking. The legs are loose and the cushion is torn. The chair is not strong enough for their game.
+
+Suddenly, the chair falls over with a loud crash. Sara and Tom fall on the floor. They are scared and hurt. They cry.
+
+Grandma hears the noise and runs to the living room. She sees the broken chair and the twins on the floor. She is angry and worried.
+
+She helps Sara and Tom get up and checks if they are OK. Then she gives them a lecture. She tells them that they are naughty and careless. She tells them that they should not play with the chair. She tells them that they should listen to her and be quiet.
+
+Sara and Tom feel sorry and ashamed. They say "Sorry, Grandma. We did not mean to break the chair. We just wanted to have fun."
+
+Grandma hugs them and says "I know, my dears. But you have to be careful and respectful. The chair is old and ordinary, but it is also precious. It belonged to your great-grandpa. He used to sit on it and tell me stories. It is a family treasure."
+
+Sara and Tom are surprised and curious. They ask Grandma to tell them stories about great-grandpa and the chair. Grandma smiles and says "OK, but only if you promise to be good and quiet."
+
+Sara and Tom nod and say "We promise, Grandma. We love you and we love stories."
+
+They sit on the floor next to Grandma and listen to her stories. They forget about the broken chair and the lecture. They learn about their family and their history. They have a different kind of fun.
+Sara and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a doll and Tom had a car. They liked to make up stories with their toys and talk to them.
+
+"Hello, doll. You are very pretty. Do you want to go to the park with me?" Sara said.
+
+"Vroom, vroom. I am a fast car. I can race with anyone. Do you want to see how fast I can go?" Tom said.
+
+Sara and Tom looked at each other and smiled. They decided to play together. They took their toys to the window and pretended they were going to the park. The sun was shining outside and made their toys look bright and colorful.
+
+"Look, doll. The sun is shining. It makes you shine too. You are like a star," Sara said.
+
+"Look, car. The sun is shining. It makes you shine too. You are like a rocket," Tom said.
+
+They were having fun until they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Rex. Rex was big and furry and liked to play too. But he did not know how to play gently with toys. He saw Sara and Tom's toys and wanted to join them. He ran to the window and jumped on them. He grabbed the doll and the car with his mouth and shook them hard.
+
+"Hey, Rex. Stop it. You are hurting our toys. Let them go," Sara said.
+
+"Hey, Rex. Stop it. You are breaking our toys. Drop them now," Tom said.
+
+But Rex did not listen. He thought they were playing with him. He ran away with the doll and the car and hid under the sofa. Sara and Tom followed him and tried to get their toys back. They were very sad and angry. They loved their toys and did not want them to be ruined.
+
+"Rex, you are a terrible dog. You are not nice. You are not our friend," Sara said.
+
+"Rex, you are a terrible dog. You are not good. You are not our buddy," Tom said.
+
+Rex heard their words and felt sorry. He did not mean to hurt their toys or make them cry. He wanted to play with them and make them happy. He realized he had made a mistake. He came out from under the sofa and gave them back their toys. He licked their faces and wagged his tail.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara. I'm sorry, Tom. I did not know. I was silly. Please forgive me," Rex said.
+
+Sara and Tom looked at their toys. They were dirty and torn and had teeth marks on them. They were not shiny anymore. They were very sad. But they also looked at Rex. He was sad too. He was sorry. He was their dog. They loved him.
+
+"It's okay, Rex. We forgive you. We know you did not mean it. We love you," Sara said.
+
+"It's okay, Rex. We forgive you. We know you did not know. We love you," Tom said.
+
+They hugged Rex and he hugged them back. They decided to play with him and their toys together. They did not care if their toys were not shiny anymore. They were still their toys. And Rex was still their dog. And they were still happy.
+Tim and Mia are playing with their cars on the floor. They make noises and pretend to drive fast. Tim has a red car and Mia has a blue car.
+
+"Let's race!" Tim says. "The first one to reach the door wins!"
+
+"Okay!" Mia says. "Ready, set, go!"
+
+They push their cars and zoom across the floor. Tim is ahead, but Mia is close behind. They see the door getting closer and closer.
+
+"Watch out!" Mia says. "There is a dirty sock on the floor! You have to turn or you will crash!"
+
+Tim sees the sock, but he does not want to slow down. He thinks he can go over it. He tries to jump his car, but the sock is too big. His car gets stuck on the sock and stops.
+
+"Oh no!" Tim says. "My car is delayed! It is dirty and smelly!"
+
+Mia sees Tim's car stop. She turns her car and avoids the sock. She reaches the door and wins the race.
+
+"Yay!" Mia says. "I win! I win!"
+
+She turns around and sees Tim's car on the sock. She feels sorry for him. She goes back and helps him get his car off the sock.
+
+"Here you go," Mia says. "Your car is free now. Do you want to race again?"
+
+Tim smiles and nods. He thanks Mia for helping him. He cleans his car with a tissue. He says he will be more careful next time.
+
+They race again, and have fun. They are good friends.
+Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play games on the tablet. The tablet is modern. It has many colors and sounds.
+
+One day, they play a new game. The game is about animals. They have to find the animals and tap them. When they tap an animal, they gain a point. The game says "Good job!" or "Try again!".
+
+Lila is good at the game. She finds many animals. She gains many points. She is happy. She says "Look, Tom, I have ten points!"
+
+Tom is not good at the game. He finds few animals. He gains few points. He is sad. He says "Lila, you are too fast. I have only three points."
+
+Lila sees that Tom is sad. She wants to help him. She says "Tom, don't be sad. I will show you how to find the animals. You have to look for their shapes and colors. Like this. See, this is a lion. It is yellow and brown. Tap it!"
+
+Tom listens to Lila. He looks for the shapes and colors of the animals. He finds a lion. He taps it. He gains a point. The game says "Good job!" He smiles. He says "Thank you, Lila. You are a good friend. Now I have four points!"

+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with red fruits. They want to pick some fruits and make jam.
+
+"Look, Lily, the fruits are so red and sweet. Let's climb the tree and get some," Tom says.
+
+"OK, Tom, but be careful. The tree is very high and the branches are thin," Lily says.
+
+Tom and Lily climb the tree. They pick some fruits and put them in a basket. They are very happy. They want to make jam for their mums and dads.
+
+But then, Tom slips and falls. He hurts his leg. He cries.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! My leg hurts. Help me, Lily," Tom says.
+
+Lily is scared. She sees Tom on the ground. She climbs down the tree. She runs to Tom and hugs him.
+
+"Don't cry, Tom. I'm here. I will support you. We will go to the nurse and she will make your leg better," Lily says.
+
+Lily helps Tom to stand up. She holds his hand. They walk to the nurse. The nurse is kind. She puts a bandage on Tom's leg. She gives him a sticker and a lollipop.
+
+"There, there, Tom. You are very brave. You will be fine soon. And you have a good friend who supports you. You are lucky," the nurse says.
+
+Tom smiles. He feels better. He thanks the nurse. He hugs Lily.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. You support me. You are lucky, too. We have some fruits. We can still make jam," Tom says.
+
+Lily smiles. She agrees. They take their basket and go home. They make jam with their mums and dads. They share their jam with the nurse. They are happy. They are lucky. They are friends.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had many toys, but her favorite was a candle. She did not own the candle, but she found it in a box in the attic. The candle was white and had a picture of a flower on it. Lily liked to pretend that the candle was a magic wand.
+
+One day, Lily was playing with her candle in her room. She waved it around and said, "Candle, candle, make me a cake!" She was very hungry and wanted a snack. But nothing happened. Lily tried again, "Candle, candle, make me a sandwich!" But still nothing happened. Lily was sad and wondered why her candle did not work.
+
+She decided to go downstairs and ask her mom for some food. She took her candle with her and walked down the stairs. But she did not see her mom. She saw a big, scary dog. The dog was also hungry and saw Lily and her candle. The dog barked and ran towards Lily. Lily was scared and did not know what to do.
+
+She held her candle in front of her and said, "Candle, candle, make the dog go away!" And then something amazing happened. The candle lit up and made a bright flash. The dog was startled and ran away. Lily was surprised and happy. Her candle did work! She ran to her mom and hugged her. She told her what happened and showed her the candle. Her mom smiled and said, "Lily, you are very brave and clever. And you know what? You can own the candle. It is a special gift for you. Now, let's go and make some cake together." Lily was very happy and thanked her mom. She loved her candle and her mom. And she was not hungry anymore.
+Sam and Tom are brothers. They like to play in the yard. One day, they find a big box. They open the box and see many things. They see books, toys, clothes and a jar. The jar is heavy and has a label. The label says "Dad's ash".
+
+Sam and Tom do not know what ash is. They think it is dirt. They want to play with the jar. They take it out of the box and shake it. Some ash comes out of the jar and falls on the ground. Sam and Tom laugh. They think it is funny.
+
+They decide to bury the jar in the yard. They dig a hole with their hands. They put the jar in the hole and cover it with dirt. They pat the dirt and make a mound. They are happy. They think they made a good hiding place for the jar.
+
+Mom comes out of the house. She sees the boys and the box. She sees the ash on the ground and the mound in the yard. She is angry and sad. She knows what ash is. She knows it is Dad. Dad was bald and sick. He died and became ash. Mom loved Dad. She wanted to keep his ash in the jar.
+
+She runs to the boys and the mound. She yells at them and cries. She tells them to dig up the jar. She tells them they did a bad thing. She tells them they hurt her and Dad.

+Sara and Ben are going to the zoo with Mom. They are very happy. They want to see the lions, the monkeys, and the penguins. Mom gives them each a ticket and tells them to hold it tight.
+
+They walk to the bus stop and wait for the bus. The bus is big and yellow. It has many seats and windows. Sara and Ben sit next to Mom and look outside. They see cars, trees, and shops.
+
+"Look, Ben, there is a big park!" Sara says, pointing to a green space with swings and slides.
+
+"Wow, that looks fun!" Ben says. "Can we play there later?"
+
+"Maybe, if we have time," Mom says. "But first, we have to go to the zoo."
+
+The bus stops at a red light. Sara and Ben hear a loud honk. They turn around and see a truck behind the bus. The truck is carrying many boxes. One of the boxes falls off the truck and lands on the road. The box breaks open and many things come out.
+
+"What are those?" Sara asks, curious.
+
+"They are balls," Mom says. "They are round and colorful. They bounce and roll."
+
+Sara and Ben watch the balls bounce and roll on the road. They see red balls, blue balls, yellow balls, and green balls. They see big balls, small balls, soft balls, and hard balls. They see balls with stripes, dots, stars, and faces.
+
+"Look, Mom, that ball has a smiley face!" Ben says, pointing to a yellow ball with a black smile.
+
+"That's funny," Mom says, smiling too.
+
+Sara likes the balls. She wants to play with them. She thinks they are pretty and fun. She reaches for her ticket in her pocket. She wants to trade her ticket for a ball. She thinks Mom will not mind.
+
+She pulls out her ticket and opens the window. She leans out and waves her ticket at the truck driver. She shouts, "Hey, mister, can I have a ball?"
+
+Mom sees Sara and gasps. She grabs Sara and pulls her back. She closes the window and scolds Sara.
+
+"Sara, what are you doing?" Mom says, angry. "That's very dangerous! You could have fallen out of the window! And you could have lost your ticket! You need your ticket to go to the zoo!"
+
+Sara feels bad. She did not mean to be bad. She did not know it was dangerous. She did not want to lose her ticket. She just wanted a ball.
+
+She drops her ticket on her lap and says, "Sorry, Mom. I'm sorry."
+
+Mom hugs Sara and says, "It's okay, Sara. I'm glad you're safe. But you have to listen to me and be careful. And you have to keep your ticket. The balls are not worth it. The zoo is much better. You'll see."
+
+Sara nods and says, "Okay, Mom. I'll listen to you. And I'll keep my ticket. I want to go to the zoo."
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Good girl. I love you, Sara."
+
+"I love you too, Mom," Sara says.
+
+Ben looks at Sara and says, "I love you too, Sara. And I love the zoo. And I love the balls. But I love you more."
+
+Sara smiles and says, "I love you too, Ben. And I love the zoo. And I love the balls. But I love you more."
+
+They hug each other and look out the window. The light turns green and the bus moves. They see the balls roll away and the truck drive away. They see a big sign that says, "Welcome to the zoo."
+
+They clap their hands and say, "Yay, we're here!"
+
+They hold their tickets and follow Mom. They are ready to see the animals. They are happy.
+Lila and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. But their favorite thing was to look for stones. They wanted to find the perfect stone.
+
+One day, they saw a big, shiny stone under a tree. It was round and smooth and sparkled in the sun. "Wow, look at that stone!" Lila said. "It's the perfect stone!" Ben said. They both ran to the stone and reached for it at the same time.
+
+But then they stopped. They looked at each other. They both wanted the stone, but they only had one stone. "I saw it first!" Lila said. "No, I saw it first!" Ben said. They started to pull and tug on the stone. They were angry and sad.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was an old man who was sitting on a bench. He had a kind smile and a long beard. He said, "Hello, children. Why are you fighting over that stone?" Lila and Ben let go of the stone and looked at him. They said, "We both want the stone. It's the perfect stone."
+
+The old man nodded. He said, "I see. But do you know what makes a stone perfect?" Lila and Ben shook their heads. They did not know. The old man said, "A stone is perfect when it makes someone happy. A stone is perfect when it is shared with a friend. A stone is perfect when it is a gift of love. Do you understand?"
+
+Lila and Ben thought about what the old man said. They felt sorry for fighting. They looked at the stone and then at each other. They smiled. They said, "Yes, we understand. Thank you, old man." They picked up the stone and gave it to the old man. They said, "This is for you. You are our friend. You made us happy. This is the perfect stone."
+
+The old man was surprised and touched. He said, "Thank you, children. You are very kind and wise. You made me happy. This is the perfect stone." He hugged Lila and Ben and gave them a candy each. He said, "Now go and play. And remember, the perfect stone is not the one you find, but the one you give." Lila and Ben nodded. They said, "We will remember. Goodbye, old man." They ran to the playground and played happily. They were best friends again. They had learned a valuable lesson.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their dad's old suit. The suit is big and gray and has many buttons. They pretend to be spies and go on missions.
+
+One day, they find a big box in the garage. The box is full of books and toys and clothes. They want to see what is inside. They open the box and start to take things out.
+
+"Look, Sam, a toy gun!" Tom says. He picks up the gun and points it at Sam. "Bang, bang, you are dead!"
+
+"No, I'm not, Tom, you missed!" Sam says. He grabs a hat from the box and puts it on his head. "I'm the boss, and you are the bad guy!"
+
+They run around the garage, shooting and dodging and hiding. They have fun and make a lot of noise.
+
+But they do not see their mom coming. She is carrying a big bag of groceries. She wants to put the bag in the garage. She opens the door and sees the mess.
+
+"Tom, Sam, what are you doing?" she asks. She is not happy. "You are supposed to help me load the car, not play with the suit and the box!"
+
+Tom and Sam stop and look at their mom. They feel bad. They know they did something wrong.
+
+"Sorry, mom," they say. They put the gun and the hat back in the box. They help their mom load the car with the groceries. They also load the box with the suit and the other things. They are going to give the box to their cousin, who needs some clothes and toys.
+
+They finish loading the car and get in. Their mom drives them to their cousin's house. They feel dizzy from running and playing. They close their eyes and fall asleep. They dream of being spies and going on missions.
+Ben and Mia love to play at the beach. They run on the sand, build castles and dig holes. Sometimes they find shells and stones and make patterns with them.

+
+"Look, Ben, look!" Mia says. "The sky is so pretty!"
+
+Ben looks up and sees the sunset. The sky is orange and pink and purple. It looks like a painting. The sun is a big ball of fire that slowly goes down.

+
+They sit on the sand and watch the sunset. They feel happy and warm. They hug each other and say thank you for being friends. They don't want the day to end.
+Tom and Lily went to the lake with Mom and Dad. They liked the lake. It was big and clear and blue. They saw fish and ducks and frogs in the water.
+
+"Can I lift a frog, Mom?" Tom asked. He wanted to touch a frog.
+
+"Be careful, Tom. Frogs are slippery and they can jump," Mom said. She helped Tom look for a frog.
+
+Lily saw a duck. She liked the duck. It was white and fluffy and quacked. She wanted to feed the duck.
+
+"Can I give bread to the duck, Dad?" Lily asked. She had some bread in her hand.
+

+
+The duck liked the bread. It came closer to Lily. It quacked and wagged its tail.
+
+"Hello, duck. You are nice," Lily said. She smiled at the duck.
+
+The duck smiled back. It lifted its head and nibbled Lily's hair.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The duck bit me, Dad!" Lily cried. She ran to Dad.

+"Hello, frog. You are cool," Tom said. He showed the frog to Mom.
+
+Mom smiled. She took a picture of Tom and the frog.
+

+
+"Can we go on the ship, Mom?" Sam asked.
+
+"Maybe later, sweetie. First, let's have a picnic," Mom said. She took out some sandwiches and juice from her bag.
+
+Sam and Lily ate their sandwiches. They were yummy. But when they drank their juice, they made a funny face. The juice was sour.
+
+"Yuck! This juice is sour!" Lily said.
+
+"Me too! I don't like it!" Sam said.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. I think the juice went bad. Let me get you some water," Mom said. She threw away the sour juice and gave them some water.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. The water is good," Sam said.
+
+"Can we go on the ship now, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, let's go. Maybe the ship has some nice juice for us," Mom said.

+
+"Wow, look at these stamps!" Lily says. "They are so pretty. I want to keep them."
+
+"No, I want to keep them!" Max says. "They are so cool. I want to put them in my album."
+
+Lily and Max start to argue. They both want the stamps. They pull the envelope and tear it. The stamps fall on the floor.
+
+"Stop it!" Mom says. "You are making a mess. Why are you fighting?"
+
+"Lily and Max point at the stamps. "We both want them!" they say.
+
+Mom picks up the stamps. She looks at them. She smiles. "These stamps are from Grandma. She sent them to you. She wants you to share them. She loves you both very much."

+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big hill with many trees. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Tom said. "Maybe we will find something fun!"
+
+"OK, Tom!" Lily said. "But be careful. The hill is steep and the ground is slippery."
+
+They held hands and started to climb the hill. They saw many flowers and birds and bugs. They heard a strange noise. It sounded like a snort.
+
+"What is that, Tom?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Let's find out!" Tom said.
+
+They climbed higher and higher. They reached the top of the hill. They saw a big deer with brown fur and antlers. The deer was eating some grass. It looked at them with big eyes.
+
+"Wow, Lily! Look at the deer!" Tom said. "It is so beautiful!"
+
+"Wow, Tom! You are right!" Lily said. "But don't go too close. It might be scared of us."
+
+They stayed still and watched the deer. The deer watched them back. It seemed curious but not frightened. It took a few steps towards them. It sniffed the air.
+
+"Hello, deer!" Tom said softly. "We are not going to hurt you. We just want to be your friends."
+
+"Hello, deer!" Lily said softly. "You are very pretty. We like your fur and your antlers."
+
+The deer tilted its head. It made a soft sound. It seemed to like them too. It came closer and closer. It let them touch its nose and ears.
+
+Lily and Tom were very happy. They had made a new friend. They played with the deer for a while. They gave it some grass and flowers. They stroked its fur and antlers.
+
+They had a lot of fun. They forgot about the time. They did not notice that the sun was setting and the sky was getting dark.
+
+"Uh-oh, Lily!" Tom said. "We have to go back. It is getting late. Mom and Dad will be worried."
+
+"Uh-oh, Tom!" Lily said. "You are right. We have to say goodbye to the deer. Maybe we can come back tomorrow."
+
+They hugged the deer and thanked it for playing with them. The deer licked their faces and nuzzled their hair. It seemed to say goodbye too.
+
+They waved to the deer and started to climb down the hill. They held hands and ran to the park. They saw Mom and Dad waiting for them.
+
+"Where have you been, Lily and Tom?" Mom asked. "We have been looking for you. We were frightened."
+
+"We are sorry, Mom and Dad!" Lily and Tom said. "We were climbing the hill and we met a deer. It was very nice and friendly. We played with it and had fun."

+Sara was a tall girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna, who had long hair and a pink dress. Sara always took Anna with her everywhere she went.
+
+One day, Sara and her mom went to the doctor, because Sara had a pain in her arm. The doctor was a kind man who smiled at Sara and asked her what happened. Sara told him that she fell from the swing and hurt her arm. The doctor said he needed to take an x-ray of her arm to see if it was broken.
+
+Sara was scared of the x-ray machine. It was big and noisy and made her arm look like a skeleton. She hugged Anna and asked her mom if it would hurt. Her mom said no, it would not hurt, and that the x-ray would help the doctor fix her arm. She said Sara was brave and that she should part with Anna for a moment and give her to her mom. Sara did not want to part with Anna, but she trusted her mom and the doctor. She gave Anna to her mom and let the doctor put her arm under the x-ray machine.
+
+The x-ray showed that Sara had a small crack in her bone, but it was not very bad. The doctor said he would put a cast on her arm to help it heal. He said Sara could choose the color of the cast. Sara chose purple, because it was her favorite color. The doctor wrapped her arm in a purple cast and said she had to be careful and not play too rough for a few weeks. He said she could have Anna back and that she was a good girl.
+
+Sara was happy to have Anna back. She thanked the doctor and her mom and hugged them both. She said she was sorry for being scared of the x-ray machine. Her mom said it was okay, and that everyone gets scared sometimes. She said the important thing was to be brave and to trust the people who love and help you. She said Sara was very brave and that she was proud of her. Sara smiled and said she loved her mom and the doctor. She said she learned that parting with something you love is hard, but sometimes it is necessary to get better. She said she would take good care of her arm and her dolls. She said she was happy.

+
+That night, Lily brushed her teeth and went to bed. She put her tooth under her pillow and closed her eyes. She dreamed of the tooth fairy and the coin. She hoped the tooth fairy would be nice and pretty.
+
+But when Lily woke up, she was troubled. She reached under her pillow and felt nothing. No tooth, no coin, nothing. She looked around and saw her dog, Spot, on the floor. He was chewing something. Lily got up and saw what it was. It was her tooth. Spot had taken it from under her pillow. He had eaten her tooth.
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She yelled at Spot and tried to get her tooth back. But it was too late. Spot had swallowed it. Lily cried and ran to her mom. Her mom hugged her and tried to comfort her. She said she was sorry and that Spot didn't know any better. She said she would write a note to the tooth fairy and explain what happened. She said maybe the tooth fairy would still give her a coin.
+
+Lily sniffed and nodded. She hoped her mom was right. She hoped the tooth fairy would understand. She missed her tooth. She missed her coin. She missed her chance to meet the tooth fairy.
+Anna and Ben are going to grandma's house for the weekend. They need to pack their bags with clothes and toys. Anna likes to pack her bag by herself. She puts in her pink dress, her teddy bear, her crayons and her book. She zips up her bag and puts it by the door.
+
+Ben is not so good at packing. He wants to take everything he sees. He puts in his blue shirt, his truck, his ball, his dinosaur and his movie. His bag is too full and he can't zip it up. He tries to push and pull, but it doesn't work.
+
+"Ben, you can't take your movie," Anna says. "Grandma doesn't have a movie player. You can watch her TV instead."
+
+"But I want to watch my movie!" Ben says. He is persistent. He doesn't want to leave his movie behind.
+
+"Ben, listen to me," Anna says. "Your movie is too big for your bag. It will break if you squeeze it in. And you can't watch it at grandma's house anyway. Why don't you take something else, like your puzzle or your train?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He likes his puzzle and his train. He takes out his movie and puts in his puzzle and his train. He zips up his bag and puts it by the door.
+
+"Good job, Ben," Anna says. "Now we are ready to go to grandma's house. Maybe she will have a movie for us to watch together."
+
+"OK, Anna," Ben says. "But I still like my movie. I will watch it when we come back home."

+
+One day, Tom was playing with his toy plane. He made it fly in the air and zoom around the room. He was having fun, but then he crashed the plane into the wall. The plane broke into two pieces. Tom was sad. He wanted to repair his plane.
+
+He ran to his tool box and got his hammer and some nails. He tried to nail the pieces of the plane together, but it did not work. The plane was still broken. Tom was frustrated. He needed something else to fix his plane.
+
+He looked around the room and saw his mom cooking in the kitchen. She was making beef for dinner. She had a big piece of beef on the cutting board. Tom had an idea. He ran to the kitchen and grabbed the beef. He thought the beef could glue the pieces of the plane together.
+
+He ran back to his room and put the beef between the pieces of the plane. He pressed them hard and hoped the beef would stick. He lifted the plane and tried to make it fly again. But the beef was too heavy and the plane fell to the floor. The beef fell off and the plane was still broken. Tom was disappointed. He realized the beef was not a good glue.
+
+He heard his mom calling him for dinner. He left the plane and the beef on the floor and went to the kitchen. He saw his mom looking at him with a funny face. She asked him what he was doing with the beef. Tom told her he was trying to repair his plane. His mom smiled and hugged him. She told him he was a smart boy, but he needed a different glue. She said she would help him repair his plane after dinner. Tom was happy. He thanked his mom and ate his beef. He hoped his plane would fly again soon.

+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Tom shouted.
+
+They dropped their baskets and ran as fast as they could. But the bear was faster and stronger. He caught up with them and knocked them down. He bit them and hurt them very badly. Then he ate all the blueberries and left.
+
+Tom and Lily did not get up. They did not go home. They did not see their moms and dads again. They were gone.
+
+It was a very sad and bad day for Tom and Lily. They were just ordinary kids who liked blueberries. But the bear did not care. He was greedy and mean. He took everything from them. The end.

+
+"Happy birthday, Tom!" Sue says. She gives him a gift. It is a big box with a bow. "What is it?" Tom asks. He opens the box. It is a train. It has many cars and a track. Tom likes trains. He smiles.
+
+"Thank you, Sue!" Tom says. He hugs her. They set up the train on the floor. They turn it on. The train goes around the track. It makes a sound. Choo-choo! Tom and Sue watch the train. They clap their hands.

+
+One day, they see a new toy in the store. It is a thin flute that makes a high sound. Anna wants the flute for her band. She asks her mom to buy it for her.
+
+"Please, mom, can I have the flute? It is so pretty and it will make our band better," Anna says.
+
+Mom looks at the flute and the price tag. She shakes her head. "No, Anna, the flute is too expensive and too hard for you to play. You have a nice drum already. Why don't you play with that?"
+
+Anna feels sad and angry. She does not want the drum. She wants the flute. She thinks the flute will make her happy. She does not understand why mom says no.
+
+Ben sees that Anna is upset. He wants to cheer her up. He has an idea. He finds a thin straw and a pair of scissors. He cuts the straw into small pieces. He gives them to Anna.
+
+"Look, Anna, I made you a flute. You can play it with your mouth. It will make a funny sound. Try it," Ben says.
+
+Anna takes the straw pieces from Ben. She blows into them. They make a squeaky sound. Anna laughs. She thinks the sound is funny. She tries to make a song with the straw flute.
+
+Ben smiles. He plays his guitar along with Anna. They make a new song with their band. They have fun.
+
+Mom hears them playing and singing. She comes to see what they are doing. She sees the straw flute and the guitar. She thinks they are clever and creative. She is proud of them.
+
+"That's a nice flute, Anna. And a nice song, too. You and Ben have a great band. Can I hear more?" Mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They play more songs for mom. They are happy. They do not need the thin flute from the store. They have their own flute and their own band. They have each other.
+Ben and Lily were going to the beach with Mom and Dad. They wanted to see the big fish that lived in the water. Mom said they were called whales. Ben and Lily liked whales. They had a book about whales at home.
+
+Before they left, they had to prepare. They packed their bags with towels, hats, sunscreen, and snacks. They also brought their buckets and shovels to play in the sand. They wore their swimsuits and flip-flops. They were ready to go.
+
+They got in the car and drove to the beach. It was a sunny day and the water was blue. They found a spot to put their things and ran to the shore. They splashed and laughed in the waves. They made sandcastles and buried each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Then they heard a loud sound. It was like a big splash and a whistle. They looked out to the sea and saw a huge shape. It was a whale! It jumped out of the water and landed with a splash. It did it again and again. Ben and Lily were amazed. They clapped and cheered. They wanted to get closer.
+
+They asked Mom and Dad if they could go on a boat to see the whale. Mom and Dad said yes, but they had to be careful. They found a boat that took people to see the whales. They got on the boat and put on life jackets. They were tight, but they kept them safe. They sailed out to the sea and looked for the whale.
+
+They saw the whale again. It was swimming near the boat. It was bigger than the boat. It had a long tail and a big mouth. It had a hole on its head that sprayed water. It looked at them with a friendly eye. Ben and Lily waved at the whale. The whale waved back with its tail. They heard it make a noise. It sounded like hello. Ben and Lily said hello back. They felt happy. They made a new friend.
+Lily loved to dance. She was a dancer. She danced in her room, in the garden, and in the park. She wore a delicate dress that was pink and shiny. She felt like a fairy.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and her dog, Max. Max was a big and furry dog. He liked to run and play and chew. He chewed on his toys, on sticks, and on bones.
+
+Lily saw a big tree in the park. She wanted to dance under the tree. She left her dress on a bench and ran to the tree. She danced and twirled and smiled.
+
+Max saw the dress on the bench. He thought it was a toy. He ran to the bench and grabbed the dress. He chewed and chewed and chewed.
+
+Lily heard a rip. She turned and saw Max with her dress. She screamed.
+
+"Max, no! That's my dress! That's not a toy! Give it back!"
+
+She ran to Max and tried to pull the dress from his mouth. But Max was strong and he did not let go. He growled and shook his head.
+
+Lily cried. Her dress was ruined. It was torn and dirty and wet. She could not dance like a fairy anymore.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lily and Max and the dress. She hugged Lily and said,
+
+"I'm sorry, honey. Max did not know. He thought it was a toy. He did not mean to hurt your dress. We can get you a new dress. A better dress. A dress that you can dance in."
+
+Lily sniffed and nodded. She loved her mom. She loved Max too, even if he chewed her dress. She hoped he would not chew her new dress. She wanted to dance again.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a charming dog. The dog has brown fur and a long tail. It wags its tail and barks.
+
+"Can we pet the dog?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we should ask the owner first," Ben says.
+
+They look around, but they do not see anyone. The dog runs to them and licks their faces. They laugh and hug the dog.
+
+"Hello, doggy. You are so cute and friendly," Anna says.
+
+"Maybe we can take the dog home. I always wanted a dog," Ben says.
+
+They hold the dog's collar and walk to the gate. They do not see the sign that says "Beware of the dog".
+
+Suddenly, a man comes out of the house. He is angry and loud. He points at Anna and Ben and yells.
+
+"Hey, you! What are you doing with my dog? That is not your dog. That is my dog. Give it back to me right now!"
+
+Anna and Ben are scared. They let go of the dog and run away. The man chases them and tells them to stop. The dog barks and follows the man.
+
+Anna and Ben cry and wish they never saw the charming dog. They are in trouble and they do not know what to do. They are sorry for taking the dog. They hope the man will not catch them. They hope the dog will not bite them. They hope their parents will not be mad at them. They have a bad day.
+Sara was a child who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had a fancy dress and a fancy hat. Sara liked to make Lily talk and dance and have tea parties.
+
+One day, Sara's mom said they were going to visit her aunt. Sara was happy, because her aunt had a big house and a big garden. She wanted to take Lily with her, but her mom said no. She said Lily was too fancy for the trip, and she might get dirty or lost. Sara was sad, but she listened to her mom. She left Lily on her bed and said goodbye.
+
+At her aunt's house, Sara had fun. She played with her cousin Tom, who had a lot of cars and trucks. They raced and crashed and made loud noises. Sara forgot about Lily for a while. She was having too much fun.
+
+But then, it was time to go home. Sara said goodbye to her aunt and her cousin, and got in the car with her mom. She was tired, but happy. She remembered Lily, and smiled. She couldn't wait to see her again.
+
+But when she got home, she had a big surprise. Lily was not on her bed. She was not in her room. She was not in the house. Sara looked everywhere, but she could not find her. She started to cry. She asked her mom, where was Lily?
+
+Her mom looked worried. She said she didn't know. She said maybe Lily had run away, or someone had taken her. She said she was sorry. She hugged Sara and said they would look for her.
+
+Sara was very sad. She wondered who had taken her fancy doll, and why. She wondered if she would ever see her again. She wished she had taken her with her, or put her in a safe place. She wished she had not left her alone. She learned a hard lesson. She learned that sometimes, things that are fancy are also fragile.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they have to do a quiz. Mom gives them a quiz to see what they learned at school.
+
+One day, Mom asks Lily and Ben to sit at the table. She has a paper with questions and a pencil. She says, "This is your quiz. I will ask you a question and you will say the answer. If you say the right answer, you get a star. If you say the wrong answer, you have to repeat the question until you get it right."
+
+Lily is good at the quiz. She knows the colors, the shapes, and the numbers. She says the answers fast and gets many stars. Ben is not so good at the quiz. He does not like the questions. He thinks they are boring and hard. He says the wrong answers or says nothing at all.
+
+Lily is bossy. She tells Ben what to say. She says, "Ben, you have to say the answer. Mom will be mad if you don't. Look, this is a circle. Say circle. Repeat after me. Circle, circle, circle."
+
+Ben is angry. He does not want to repeat after Lily. He says, "No, Lily. You are not Mom. You are not the teacher. You are just my sister. I don't have to repeat after you. You are bossy and mean."
+
+Mom hears them fighting. She comes to the table. She says, "Lily, Ben, stop. You are not being nice to each other. Lily, you don't have to help Ben with the quiz. He can do it by himself. Ben, you have to try to answer the questions. They are not hard. They are fun. You can learn new things. If you don't know the answer, you can repeat the question and think about it."
+
+Lily and Ben say sorry to Mom and to each other. They finish the quiz. Mom gives them a hug and a sticker. She says, "You did a good job. I am proud of you. Now you can play with your toys and books. But remember, be kind and respectful to each other. Don't be bossy or angry. Repeat after me. Be kind and respectful. Be kind and respectful. Be kind and respectful."
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to go on walks with their mom and dad. They were eager to see new things and learn new words. One day, they went to a big park with many trees and flowers and animals.
+
+"Look, Ben, a bird!" Lily said, pointing to a blue jay on a branch. "It has a pretty color and a loud voice."
+
+"I see it, Lily. It is a blue jay. Mom taught me that word," Ben said, proud of his knowledge. "Do you want to see more birds?"
+
+"Yes, yes, let's go!" Lily said, pulling Ben by the hand. They ran ahead of their mom and dad, who were busy talking.
+
+They noticed a sign that said "Do not enter. Danger." But they did not know what it meant. They saw a fence with a hole in it. They thought it was a secret path to a new landscape. They crawled through the hole and found themselves in a field with tall grass and rocks.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Ben said, looking around. "Maybe we can find a rabbit or a squirrel or a deer."
+
+"Or a bear!" Lily said, excited. "I want to see a bear. They are big and furry and have claws and teeth."
+
+They heard a loud roar from behind a rock. They turned and saw a big brown bear. It was angry and hungry. It saw them and started to run towards them.
+
+"Help! Help!" Ben and Lily screamed, but their mom and dad were too far away to hear them. They tried to run back to the fence, but the bear was faster. It caught them and ate them. They were gone. The end.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were on a big ship, sailing on the sea. They used the armchair as their captain's seat, and the pillows as their sails. They had a lot of fun making noises and waving to the fish.
+
+But then, Mom came in and said, "Tom, Lily, it's time for lunch. Come to the kitchen, please."
+
+Tom and Lily did not want to stop playing. They liked their ship too much. They did not answer Mom. They hid behind the armchair and hoped she would go away.
+
+Mom did not go away. She came closer and looked behind the armchair. She saw Tom and Lily's gray faces. They looked scared and guilty.
+
+"Tom, Lily, why did you not answer me?" Mom asked. "You know you have to listen when I call you. It's not nice to ignore me."
+
+Tom and Lily felt bad. They knew Mom was right. They said, "Sorry, Mom. We were having fun. We did not mean to be rude."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She said, "I'm glad you were having fun, but you also have to follow the rules. Now, come on, let's go have some lunch. You can play again later."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and followed Mom to the kitchen. They left their ship behind, but they knew they could come back to it after they ate. They said, "Thank you, Mom. We love you."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, my little sailors."
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They found a big white veil that was hanging on the clothesline. Anna wanted to wear it like a princess. Ben wanted to mark it with his crayons.
+
+"Let me have it!" Anna said. "It is mine!"
+
+"No, it is mine!" Ben said. "I want to draw on it!"
+
+They pulled the veil from both sides. It was very flexible and did not tear. But they were not happy. They both wanted the veil for themselves.
+
+Then they heard their mother calling them. She saw the veil and was angry.
+
+"What are you doing with my veil?" she asked. "This is for the wedding tomorrow!"
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry. They did not know it was their mother's veil. They thought it was just a toy.
+
+"We are sorry, Mommy," they said. "We were playing."
+
+Their mother sighed. She took the veil and looked at it. There were no marks on it. It was still clean and white.
+
+"Thank goodness," she said. "This veil is very special to me. It was my mother's veil when she married my father. And now I will wear it when I marry your new daddy."
+
+She smiled and hugged them. She told them about the wedding and how they would be the flower girl and the ring bearer. She said they could wear something nice and have cake and dance.
+
+Anna and Ben felt happy. They forgot about the veil. They were excited for the wedding. They said they loved their mother and their new daddy. They went inside to get ready.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big jar of sugar on the shelf. They wanted to taste it. They climbed on a chair and reached for the jar.
+
+"Be careful, Lily!" Ben said. "The jar is heavy and can fall."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She pulled the jar too hard and it fell on the floor. The jar broke and the sugar spilled everywhere. The glass cut Lily's hand and it hurt a lot. She cried and cried.
+
+"Look what you did!" Ben said. "You destroyed the jar and the sugar. Mom will be very angry with us."
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and the blood. She was very angry and scared.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom said. "Who did this?"
+
+Lily and Ben were quiet. They were afraid to tell the truth.
+
+Mom saw Lily's hand and took her to the bathroom. She cleaned the wound and put a bandage on it. She said Lily had to go to the doctor. She said Ben had to stay in his room. She said they were both in big trouble.
+
+Lily and Ben felt very sorry. They wished they had not touched the jar. They wished they had listened to Ben. They wished they had not destroyed the sugar and hurt Lily's hand. They knew they had made a big mistake. They knew they had a bad ending.
+Tom has a small drum. He likes to play it very loud. He thinks it is fun to make noise. He bangs the drum with his hands and a stick.
+
+But Mom does not like the noise. She has a big headache. She asks Tom to stop playing the drum. She says it is too loud and it hurts her ears.
+
+Tom does not want to stop. He thinks Mom is mean. He runs to his room with his drum. He shuts the door and plays louder.
+
+But then he hears a knock on the door. It is Dad. He has a big smile. He says he has a surprise for Tom. He gives Tom a new toy. It is a small guitar. It has strings and buttons. It makes music.
+
+Tom likes the guitar. He thinks it is cool. He says thank you to Dad. He puts down the drum and picks up the guitar. He plays it softly. He thinks it sounds nice.
+
+Mom hears the music. She does not have a headache anymore. She smiles and hugs Tom. She says she is proud of him. She says he is a good boy. Tom smiles and hugs Mom. He thinks he is happy.
+Tom and Mia like to play with their toy cars. They zoom them on the floor, on the sofa, on the table. They make noises like vroom, beep, honk. They have fun with their cars.
+
+One day, they see a big flower in the garden. It is yellow and red and smells nice. They want to zoom their cars on the flower. They think it will be fun.
+
+They take their cars and run to the garden. They put their cars on the flower and zoom them around. They laugh and giggle. They do not see that the flower is dirty. It has mud and bugs and worms on it.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" Mom says. She comes to the garden and sees Tom and Mia. She sees their cars on the flower. She sees the flower is filthy. She is not happy.
+
+"Tom, Mia, stop that!" Mom says. "You are ruining the flower. And your cars are filthy too. Come here and give them to me. I have to clean them. And you have to say sorry to the flower."
+
+Tom and Mia stop zooming their cars. They look at Mom. They look at the flower. They see it is filthy. They feel bad. They give their cars to Mom. They say sorry to the flower. They hug Mom and say sorry to her too.
+
+Mom hugs them back. She says, "It's okay. I know you were just playing. But you have to be careful with flowers. They are living things. They need water and sun and love. Not mud and bugs and worms. And you have to keep your toys clean too. They will last longer and look nicer. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Mia nod. They say, "Yes, Mom. We understand. We will be careful with flowers. And we will keep our toys clean. We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "I love you too, Tom and Mia. Now let's go inside and have some cookies. And then we can play with your cars again. But on the floor, okay?"
+
+Tom and Mia smile. They say, "Okay, Mom. Thank you, Mom." They hold Mom's hand and go inside. They have some cookies. And then they play with their cars again. But on the floor. And they make noises like vroom, beep, honk. And they have fun with their cars.
+Tom and Sam were friends. They liked to play with tools. They had hammers, saws, nails and wood. They wanted to make a house for their toys.
+
+One day, they found a big tool in the garage. It was shiny and had a long cord. Tom said, "Let's use this tool. It can cut wood fast." Sam said, "I don't know. It looks dangerous. Maybe we should ask Dad first." Tom said, "No, we don't need to ask. We are big boys. We can do it ourselves."
+
+They plugged the tool in the wall and turned it on. It made a loud noise and spun a sharp blade. Tom held a piece of wood and pushed it to the blade. The tool cut the wood in half. Tom was happy. He said, "See, this tool is helpful. It makes our work easy." Sam was scared. He said, "Tom, be careful. The tool can hurt you. Please stop."
+
+But Tom did not stop. He wanted to cut more wood. He grabbed another piece and pushed it to the blade. But he pushed too hard. The tool slipped from his hand and hit his leg. Tom screamed. He felt a lot of pain. He saw blood on his leg. He was very scared.
+
+Sam ran to get Dad. Dad came and saw what happened. He was angry and worried. He said, "Tom, what did you do? You used the tool without permission. You could have lost your leg. You are very lucky. You need to go to the hospital." He wrapped Tom's leg with a cloth and took him to the car. Sam followed them.
+
+Tom cried. He said, "I'm sorry, Dad. I'm sorry, Sam. I was stupid. I should have listened to you. I regret using the tool. I don't want to play with tools anymore." Dad said, "I hope you learned your lesson, Tom. Tools are not toys. They can be dangerous. You need to be careful and ask for help when you use them." Sam said, "It's okay, Tom. I'm still your friend. I hope you feel better soon."
+Lily was a clumsy girl who liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to make a cake for her dad's birthday, but she did not know how to use the oven. She asked her mom, "Can I own the oven and make a cake?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "You are too little to own the oven, Lily. The oven is very hot and can hurt you. You can help me mix the batter and decorate the cake, but I will put it in the oven and take it out."
+
+Lily nodded and helped her mom with the cake. She was very careful not to spill the batter or drop the eggs. She had fun putting sprinkles and candles on the cake. She was proud of her work and wanted to show it to her dad.
+
+But when her mom went to get the cake from the oven, Lily followed her and tried to grab the cake. She did not listen to her mom's warning and touched the hot pan. She burned her hand and cried out loud. Her mom quickly put the cake down and ran to get some ice for Lily's hand. She hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You have to be more careful and listen to me. The oven is not for you to own. It is for me to use and for you to enjoy."
+
+Lily felt sorry and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was too clumsy and did not listen to you. I wanted to own the oven and make a cake for dad. But I learned that the oven is not for me. It is for you and dad and me to share."
+
+Her mom kissed her hand and said, "That's right, Lily. You don't have to own everything to be happy. You can share and help and love. That's what makes a good cake and a good family."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged her mom. She said, "I love you, mom. And I love our cake. Can we still give it to dad?"
+
+Her mom nodded and said, "Of course, Lily. He will love it too. And he will love you more for being such a sweet and brave girl."
+
+They took the cake to the living room and waited for dad to come home. They sang happy birthday and ate the cake together. Lily was happy and learned a valuable lesson. She did not want to own the oven anymore. She wanted to own her mom's and dad's love. And she did.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. But sometimes they make a big mess. Mommy does not like that.
+
+One day, Mommy says, "Lily and Ben, it is time to rest. You played a lot today. Put your toys away and come to the couch. We can watch TV together."
+
+Lily and Ben do not want to rest. They want to play more. They say, "No, Mommy, we are not tired. We want to play. Please, Mommy, please."
+
+Mommy shakes her head. She says, "No, Lily and Ben, you need to rest. Look at the living room. It is very messy. You have to clean up your toys. If you do that, I will let you watch TV for a little while. But only for a little while. Then you have to go to bed."
+
+Lily and Ben sigh. They do not like to clean up. But they want to watch TV. They say, "OK, Mommy, we will clean up. But can we watch our favorite show?"
+
+Mommy smiles. She says, "Yes, you can watch your favorite show. But only one episode. Then you have to brush your teeth and go to bed. Deal?"

+Tim and Sam were friends. They liked to play with cars and trucks. One day, they found a big red truck in the park. It was shiny and had four wheels.
+
+"Wow, look at this truck!" Tim said. "Can we play with it?"
+
+Sam nodded. He wanted to play with the truck too. He ran to the truck and climbed inside. He pretended to drive and make noises.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, beep, beep!" Sam said.
+
+Tim followed him and tried to get in the truck too. But there was not enough space for both of them.
+
+"Hey, move over!" Tim said. "I want to drive too!"
+
+"No, I was here first!" Sam said. "This is my truck!"
+
+They started to push and pull each other. They were not friendly anymore. They were angry and mean.
+
+"Please, let me drive!" Tim said.
+
+"Please, go away!" Sam said.
+
+They did not listen to each other. They did not share. They did not say sorry.
+
+Then, they heard a loud voice.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing with my truck?" The voice said.
+
+They looked up and saw a big boy. He was bigger and stronger than them. He was the owner of the truck. He was not happy. He was very mad.
+
+He ran to the truck and grabbed Tim and Sam. He threw them out of the truck. He yelled at them and called them names.
+
+"This is my truck, not yours!" He said. "You are bad and rude! Go away and don't come back!"
+
+Tim and Sam were scared and hurt. They ran away from the park. They cried and felt sorry. They lost the truck and their friendship. They had a bad ending.
+Sam was sad. He fell down and hurt his knee. It was red and sore. He cried and cried.
+
+Mom came and saw Sam. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Sam. I'm here. I will comfort you." She took a band-aid and put it on his knee. She kissed it and said, "There. All better."
+
+Sam smiled a little. He said, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best." He hugged her back.
+
+Mom said, "You are very brave, Sam. You did not give up. You are my hero." She took a medal from her pocket and gave it to Sam. It was shiny and new. It had a star on it.
+
+Sam's eyes lit up. He said, "Wow! A medal! For me?" He put it around his neck and felt proud.
+
+Mom said, "Yes, for you. You deserve it. You are a star, Sam. I love you." She smiled and said, "Now, how about some ice cream?"
+
+Sam said, "Yes, please! I love ice cream. And I love you, Mom." He held her hand and they went to the kitchen. He was happy. He forgot about his knee. He had a medal and a mom who comforted him. He was a star.
+Sara and Ben were going to the airport with Mom and Dad. They were very happy because they were going to visit Grandma and Grandpa. They had a big bag with their clothes and toys. Mom and Dad told them to be careful with the bag because it was fragile. That means it can break easily.
+
+At the airport, they saw many people and planes. They had to wait in a line to check in their bag. Sara and Ben were bored and wanted to play. They saw a big scale where people put their bags to weigh them. Sara had an idea. She said to Ben, "Let's add our bag to the scale and see how much it weighs."
+
+Ben thought it was a fun game. He said, "OK, let's do it." They took their bag and put it on the scale. But the bag was too heavy for them. They lost their balance and fell down. The bag also fell down and hit the floor. It made a loud noise. Everyone looked at them. Sara and Ben felt scared and embarrassed.
+
+Mom and Dad came running to them. They were angry and worried. They asked them, "What did you do? Are you OK? Why did you put your bag on the scale?" Sara and Ben said, "We wanted to play. We wanted to add our bag to the scale and see how much it weighs." Mom and Dad said, "That was not a good idea. That was not a toy. That was a fragile bag. You could have hurt yourselves or broken your things. You have to be careful and listen to us at the airport. It is a busy and dangerous place."
+
+Sara and Ben felt sorry and sad. They said, "We are sorry, Mom and Dad. We did not mean to be bad. We did not know it was fragile. We will not do it again." Mom and Dad hugged them and said, "We love you, Sara and Ben. We are glad you are OK. But you have to learn from your mistake. You have to be respectful and responsible at the airport. You have to follow the rules and stay with us. That is how you can be safe and have fun."
+
+Sara and Ben nodded and said, "We understand, Mom and Dad. We will be good at the airport. We will follow the rules and stay with you. We want to be safe and have fun." They checked in their bag and hoped it was not broken. They went to the gate and boarded the plane. They were still happy because they were going to visit Grandma and Grandpa. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that the airport is not a place to play with fragile things. They learned that they have to be careful and listen to their parents. They learned that adding can be fun, but not always.
+Tim was a lonely boy. He had no friends to play with. He lived in a big house with his mom and dad, but they were always busy. Tim liked to look out the window and watch the cars and people go by. Sometimes he saw other kids playing in the park, but he was too shy to join them.
+
+One day, Tim saw a big package on the porch. He ran to the door and opened it. Inside was a big, fluffy teddy bear. Tim was so happy. He hugged the bear and gave it a name. He called it Bob. Tim took Bob to his room and showed him his toys and books. He told Bob stories and jokes. Bob was a good listener. Tim felt less lonely with Bob.
+
+The next day, Tim woke up with a cold. He had a runny nose and a sore throat. He sneezed a lot. He felt very bad. He stayed in bed and cuddled with Bob. Bob was very soft and warm. He made Tim feel better. Tim's mom came to check on him. She saw Bob and smiled. She said, "I'm glad you like your present. I got it for you because I love you and I know you need a friend." She kissed Tim and Bob and gave them some soup. Tim thanked his mom and said, "I love you too. And I love Bob. He is my best friend." Tim and Bob ate the soup and fell asleep. They dreamed of happy things.

+
+"They are doing yoga. It is good for your body and mind. Do you want to try?" Ben's mom says.
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+They join the people on the mat. They follow the teacher. The teacher tells them to breathe and move. They do some poses. They look like animals. They make sounds like animals.

+
+After a while, the teacher says it is time to relax. She tells them to lie down on the mat. She tells them to close their eyes and be still. She tells them to think of something nice.
+
+Lily and Ben lie down. They close their eyes. They are quiet. They think of their moms. They think of their toys. They think of their snacks.
+
+They feel warm and cozy. They feel sleepy. They fall asleep on the mat.
+

+Lily liked to play on the porch with her doll. She had a red dress and yellow hair. Lily called her doll Rose. Rose was her best friend. She told her stories and secrets.

+The dog came to the porch and sniffed around. It saw Rose lying on the floor. It thought Rose was a toy. It grabbed Rose with its teeth and ran away. Lily heard the dog and looked out the window. She saw the dog with Rose in its mouth. She cried and cried. She wanted Rose back.
+
+She ran to the door and opened it. She shouted at the dog. "Give me back my doll! Give me back Rose!" The dog heard Lily and stopped. It looked at Lily and saw that she was sad. It felt sorry for Lily. It dropped Rose on the ground and wagged its tail. It wanted to be friends with Lily.
+
+Lily ran to Rose and picked her up. She checked if she was okay. She was dirty and had some holes, but she was still her doll. She hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Rose. I love you." She looked at the dog and saw that it was not mean. It was just lonely. She smiled and said, "Do you want to play with me and Rose?" The dog barked and nodded. Lily invited the dog to the porch. They played and had fun. Lily was not scared of the dog anymore. She named it Spot. Spot was her new friend. She told him stories and secrets.
+Sam was a big dog who liked to protect his family. He was very dependable and always listened to his mom and dad. He also liked to play with his little sister, Lily, who was a baby.
+
+One day, mom was cooking in the kitchen and she left an onion on the table. Sam smelled the onion and thought it was a ball. He jumped on the table and grabbed the onion with his mouth. He ran to the living room, where Lily was sitting on the floor.
+
+Lily saw Sam with the onion and laughed. She wanted to play with him and the onion. She crawled to Sam and reached for the onion. Sam thought Lily was in danger. He did not know that onions were not good for dogs. He thought the onion was a ball that could hurt Lily. He growled and moved away from Lily. He tried to protect her from the onion.
+
+Mom heard Sam growl and came to the living room. She saw Sam with the onion and Lily with a sad face. She understood what happened. She took the onion from Sam and threw it in the trash. She praised Sam for being a good protector, but explained that onions were not toys. She gave Sam a bone and Lily a stuffed animal. She hugged them both and told them she loved them.
+
+Sam and Lily were happy. They played with their new toys and cuddled with mom. They knew they were a family and they would always protect each other. They were very dependable and always listened to their mom. They also liked to cook with her, but only with safe foods.
+Lily and Tom were bored. They had no toys to play with. Their mom was busy in the kitchen. She told them to stay in the living room and be quiet.
+
+They looked around the room. They saw a big frame on the wall. It had a picture of their family. They wanted to see it better.
+
+"Let's crawl to the frame," Lily said. "Maybe we can find something fun there."
+
+"Okay," Tom said. They got down on their hands and knees. They crawled across the floor. They reached the frame. They looked up.
+
+The picture was dull. It had no colors. It was black and white. They saw their mom and dad smiling. They saw themselves as babies. They did not look happy.
+
+"This is not fun," Tom said. "This is boring."
+
+"I know," Lily said. "Let's crawl back. Maybe mom has something for us."
+
+They crawled back to the couch. They sat down. They waited for mom.
+
+They heard a noise. It was mom. She came out of the kitchen. She had a tray in her hands. It had cookies and milk.
+
+"Look what I have for you," she said. "Some treats for being good."
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They forgot about the frame. They ran to mom. They hugged her. They took the cookies and milk. They ate and drank. They were happy.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with blocks. They want to build a big tower with their blocks. They have a task: to measure how tall their tower is. They use a ruler to measure.
+
+But Tom and Sam do not agree. Tom says his tower is taller. Sam says his tower is taller. They argue and shout. They do not share their blocks. They do not help each other.
+
+Then, a cat comes in. The cat is curious. The cat jumps on the table. The cat knocks down the towers. The blocks fall and scatter. The towers are dead.
+
+Tom and Sam are sad. They cry and hug. They say they are sorry. They decide to work together. They pick up their blocks. They start to build a new tower. They share their blocks. They help each other. They measure their tower. They smile and laugh. They are happy.
+Anna was very happy. Today was her birthday. She had a big cake with four candles. She had a pink dress and a crown. She had many friends and toys.
+
+She smiled when she saw her mom and dad. They gave her a big hug and a present. It was a book with many pictures and stories. Anna loved books. She liked to look at the pictures and learn new words.
+
+She smiled when she saw her friends. They played games and sang songs. They ate cake and ice cream. They gave her cards and stickers. Anna liked her friends. They were nice and funny.
+
+She smiled when she saw her new toy. It was a clever toy. It was a puzzle with many pieces. Anna liked puzzles. She liked to fit the pieces and make a picture. She tried to make the puzzle with her dad. They had fun.
+
+Anna had a very good birthday. She smiled a lot. She was happy and thankful. She said thank you to everyone. She gave them hugs and kisses. She went to bed with her book and her toy. She dreamed of happy things.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big box that they pretended was a ship. They wore hats and eye patches and said "Arrr!" a lot. They were pirates, and they had fun.
+
+But then, Ben came over. Ben was their neighbor, and he was not very nice. He wanted to join their game, but he did not ask nicely. He pushed Tom and took his hat. He said, "I am the captain now, and you are my crew. Do what I say, or I will make you walk the plank!"
+
+Tom and Lily did not like that. They did not want to be Ben's crew. They wanted to be their own pirates. They tried to get their hat back, but Ben was bigger and stronger. He laughed at them and said, "You are too small and weak to be pirates. You are just babies!"
+
+Tom and Lily felt sad and angry. They did not know what to do. But then, they had an idea. They saw an enormous dog in the street. It was friendly, but it looked scary. It had big teeth and a loud bark. Tom and Lily called the dog and gave it a biscuit. The dog liked them and wagged its tail.
+
+Tom and Lily said, "Come on, doggy, join our game. You can be our pirate too. You can help us get our hat back from Ben." The dog nodded and followed them. They ran to the box and climbed inside. They shouted, "Arrr! We are the pirates, and this is our ship. And this is our pirate dog. He is enormous and fierce. He will bite you if you are mean to us!"
+
+Ben saw the dog and felt scared. He dropped the hat and ran away. He said, "Help! Help! There is a monster in their ship! I don't want to play with them anymore!" Tom and Lily got their hat back and put it on. They hugged the dog and thanked him. They said, "You are a good pirate, doggy. You are our friend. Do you want to stay and play with us?" The dog barked and licked their faces. He said, "Yes, yes, I do. You are nice pirates, and I like you. Let's have fun!" And they did.
+Lily and Ben liked to play in the garden. They had a big box of toys and they made up stories with them. One day, they found a shiny thing in the dirt. It was a crystal. It sparkled in the sun and had many colors.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Can I see?" Ben asked. He reached for the crystal, but Lily pulled it away.
+
+"No, it's mine!" she said. "I found it first!"
+
+Ben was sad. He wanted to play with the crystal too. He thought it was not fair that Lily kept it all to herself. He tried to think of a way to get it.
+
+The next day, Lily and Ben played in the garden again. Lily brought the crystal with her and put it on a rock. She pretended it was a magic jewel that gave her powers. Ben watched her and waited for his chance.
+
+When Lily was busy with her other toys, Ben sneaked up to the rock. He grabbed the crystal and ran away.
+
+"Hey, stop!" Lily shouted. "That's mine!"
+
+She chased after him, but Ben was faster. He ran to the other side of the garden, where there was a big tree. He climbed up the tree and hid the crystal in a hole.
+
+"Ha ha, I got it now!" he said. "You can't get it!"
+
+Lily was angry. She tried to climb the tree, but she was afraid of falling. She asked Ben to give the crystal back, but he said no. He was playful, but also mean.
+
+Then, they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Rex. He had smelled the crystal and followed them. He barked and jumped at the tree. He wanted to play with the crystal too.
+
+"Uh oh," Ben said. "Rex is here!"
+
+He looked at the hole, but the crystal was gone. Rex had removed it with his mouth. He ran away with the crystal, wagging his tail.
+
+"Hey, come back!" Lily and Ben shouted. "That's ours!"
+
+They climbed down the tree and ran after Rex. They wanted to get the crystal back, but Rex was faster. He ran to the house and buried the crystal in the yard.
+
+Lily and Ben were sad. They had lost the crystal. They realized they had been silly and selfish. They should have shared the crystal and played with it together. They hugged and said sorry to each other.
+
+They decided to look for another shiny thing in the dirt. Maybe they would find another crystal. Or maybe something else. They didn't know. But they knew they would have more fun if they were nice and playful with each other. And with Rex.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play and have fun. But sometimes they do not behave. They make a mess and do not listen to Mom and Dad.
+
+One day, Mom makes broccoli for dinner. Anna and Ben do not like broccoli. They think it is yucky and green. They do not want to eat it. They try to hide it under their plates or in their napkins. But Mom sees them. She is not happy.
+
+Mom says, "Anna and Ben, you have to eat your broccoli. It is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy. If you do not eat your broccoli, you will not get any dessert."
+
+Anna and Ben do not want to miss dessert. They love dessert. They want to have cake and ice cream. But they still do not want to eat their broccoli. They look at each other. They have an idea.
+
+They pretend to eat their broccoli. They make yummy noises and say, "Mmm, broccoli is so good. Thank you, Mom." But they do not really eat it. They hide it in their pockets or under their chairs. They think they are very clever. They think Mom does not know.
+
+But Mom knows. She sees the hidden broccoli. She is not fooled. She is very angry. She says, "Anna and Ben, you did not behave. You lied to me. You did not eat your broccoli. You hid it. That is very naughty. You will not get any dessert. You will go to bed early."
+
+Anna and Ben are very sad. They cry and say, "We are sorry, Mom. We will not do it again. Please, can we have dessert?" But Mom says, "No. You have to learn your lesson. Maybe next time you will behave and eat your broccoli."
+
+Anna and Ben go to bed early. They do not have any cake or ice cream. They feel bad. They hug each other and say, "We were wrong. We should have eaten our broccoli. We should have behaved. We love Mom. We will be good tomorrow."
+Lily loved her pet bird, Sky. Sky was blue and yellow and had a sweet voice. Lily liked to play with Sky and feed him seeds and fruits. Sometimes, Lily would open Sky's cage and let him fly around the room. Sky was happy and would soar high and low, singing and chirping.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to show Sky to her friend, Max. Max came to Lily's house and they went to her room. Lily opened Sky's cage and said, "Look, Max, this is my pet bird, Sky. He can fly and sing. Isn't he beautiful?"
+
+Max nodded and smiled. He liked Sky too. He reached out his hand to touch Sky, but Sky was scared. He did not know Max and he did not like strangers. He flew away from Max's hand and soared out of the window. Lily and Max gasped and ran to the window. They saw Sky flying in the sky, but he was too fast and too far. They could not catch him.
+
+Lily was very sad and anxious. She cried and said, "Sky, come back! Come back, please! I love you, Sky!" Max felt sorry for Lily and tried to comfort her. He said, "Don't cry, Lily. Maybe Sky will come back. He knows you are his friend. He knows where you live. Let's wait for him."
+
+Lily and Max waited for a long time. They looked at the sky and hoped to see Sky. They prayed and wished for Sky to return. They did not play or talk. They just waited.
+
+After a while, they heard a familiar sound. It was Sky's voice. He was singing and chirping. He was flying back to Lily's window. He saw Lily and Max and flew to them. He landed on Lily's shoulder and nuzzled her cheek. He was sorry and happy. He missed Lily and wanted to be with her.
+
+Lily was overjoyed and hugged Sky. She said, "Sky, you came back! You came back! I'm so happy, Sky! I was so worried about you. Don't ever leave me again, Sky. You are my best friend." Sky nodded and kissed Lily. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was scared and curious. I wanted to see the world. But I love you, Lily. You are my best friend too. I will never leave you again, Lily."
+
+Max smiled and clapped his hands. He said, "I'm happy for you, Lily. Sky is a good bird. He is brave and smart. He knows how to find his way home. He loves you, Lily. Can I touch him, Lily? Can I be his friend too?" Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Max. You can touch him. You can be his friend too. Sky likes you, Max. He is not scared of you anymore. He trusts you, Max. He knows you are a good boy."
+
+Lily, Max, and Sky became friends. They played and talked and laughed. They were happy and grateful. They learned to soar together.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with toys. But they do not like to share. They always want the same toy.
+
+One day, Mom gives them a big box. She says, "This is a surprise for you. You can choose one toy each from the box. But you have to take turns. Lily, you go first."
+
+Lily opens the box. She sees many toys. She sees a doll, a car, a ball, a book, and a puzzle. She thinks hard. She likes all the toys. She wants to choose the best one. She sees a wide hat. It is pink and has flowers on it. She loves the hat. She says, "I choose the hat. It is so pretty. I can wear it and pretend to be a princess."
+
+Ben waits for his turn. He hopes Lily does not take the toy he wants. He likes the car. It is red and has wheels that spin. He wants to zoom it on the floor and make noises. He sees Lily take the hat. He is happy. He says, "I choose the car. It is so cool. I can drive it and pretend to be a racer."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "Good choices, Lily and Ben. You can play with your toys now. But remember to be nice and share sometimes."
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They run to their room with their toys. They are excited. They put on the hat and the car on the bed. They look at each other. They both want to try the other toy. They reach for it at the same time. They pull and tug. They say, "No, it is mine. Give it to me."
+
+Mom hears them. She is not happy. She goes to their room. She says, "Lily and Ben, what are you doing? You are not being nice. You are not sharing. You have to learn to play together. Why don't you swap your toys for a while and see how you like them?"
+
+Lily and Ben look at Mom. They look at their toys. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Ben. We can swap our toys. We can play together."
+
+Mom hugs them. She says, "That's better. I'm glad you are sorry. I'm proud of you for sharing. You can have fun with your toys. But don't forget to put them back in the box when you are done."

+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big tree with many nuts on it. They wanted to pick some nuts and eat them.
+
+They ran to the tree and looked for nuts. They found some brown nuts with shells. They broke the shells and saw the nuts inside. They were peanuts! Lily and Ben liked peanuts. They put some in their mouths and chewed.
+
+But some of the peanuts were not good. They were filthy. They had dirt and bugs on them. Lily and Ben spat them out. They felt sick. They did not like filthy peanuts.
+
+They heard a noise behind the tree. It was a squirrel. The squirrel was surprised. It saw Lily and Ben with its peanuts. It was angry. It wanted its peanuts back. It ran to Lily and Ben and chased them.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They dropped the peanuts and ran away. They ran to their mom and dad. They told them what happened. Mom and dad hugged them and gave them some water. They said they should not eat nuts from the park. They said they should only eat nuts from the store.
+
+Lily and Ben learned a lesson. They did not want to eat filthy peanuts again. They wanted to eat clean peanuts. They said sorry to the squirrel. They hoped the squirrel would find some good peanuts. They went back to play in the park. They had fun.
+Sam and Mia were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. But one day, Mia had to move to a distant place with her family. Sam was very sad. He did not want to say goodbye to Mia.
+
+"Can we still be friends?" Sam asked Mia.
+
+"Of course we can!" Mia said. "We can call each other on the phone. And we can send each other pictures and letters. And maybe one day, we can visit each other again."
+
+Sam liked Mia's idea. He gave her a big hug and a present. It was a toy phone that looked like a banana. Mia laughed and thanked him. She gave him a present too. It was a toy camera that looked like a pineapple. Sam smiled and thanked her. They both liked their presents.
+
+They said goodbye and promised to call each other soon. Sam watched Mia get in the car with her family and drive away. He felt a tear roll down his cheek. He missed Mia already.
+
+But he did not feel lonely for long. He heard a familiar voice behind him.
+
+"Hi, Sam. Do you want to play with me?" It was Lily, a girl from his class. She had a toy phone that looked like a strawberry.
+
+Sam wiped his tear and turned around. He saw Lily's friendly smile. He felt a warm feeling in his heart. He had a new friend.
+
+"Hi, Lily. Yes, I want to play with you," he said. He took out his banana phone and held it to his ear. "But first, I have to call Mia and tell her about you."
+
+Lily nodded and took out her strawberry phone. She held it to her ear too.
+
+"Me too. I have to call my cousin and tell him about you," she said.
+
+They both pretended to call their distant friends. They talked and laughed and had fun. They did not notice the time passing. They did not notice the sun setting. They did not notice the stars coming out. They only noticed each other. They were happy.
+Tom is a big boy who has a job. He works at a store where he sells toys to other kids. He likes his job, but sometimes he feels boring. He wants to play with the toys, not just sell them.
+
+One day, Tom is very tired. He did not sleep well last night, because he had a bad dream. He yawns and rubs his eyes. He does not want to work today. He wants to go home and sleep.

+"OK!" Ben says. They run to the puddle and jump up and down. They splash and laugh. They make big waves.
+
+A man comes to the park. He has a tool box. He sees the leak in the pipe. He sees Anna and Ben in the puddle.
+
+"Hello, kids," he says. "I need to fix the leak. Can you please move away from the puddle?"
+
+Anna and Ben stop jumping. They look at the man.
+
+"Why?" Anna asks.
+
+"Because the leak is not good. It wastes water. And it can make the ground muddy and slippery. You might fall and hurt yourself," the man says.

+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. They saw a big fountain with water that went up and down. Lily wanted to throw a coin in the fountain and make a wish. She asked Ben to give her a coin.
+
+"Here you go," Ben said and gave her a coin. "What will you wish for?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment and said, "I wish for a new doll. I lost my old one and I miss her."
+
+She threw the coin in the fountain and closed her eyes. She hoped her wish would come true.
+
+But then she heard a cry. It was Ben. He was worried. He had given her his last coin and he had no money to buy ice cream.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily said. "I didn't know it was your last coin. I was selfish. I should have asked you first."
+
+She felt bad for making Ben sad. She wished she could take back her coin and give it to him.
+
+She looked at the fountain and saw something shiny. It was her coin. It had bounced back from the water and landed on the edge.
+
+"Look, Ben," she said. "My coin came back. It's a sign. The fountain wants me to give it to you. Here, take it and buy ice cream. I don't need a new doll. I have you as my friend."
+
+Ben smiled and hugged her. He was happy. He took the coin and thanked her. He said, "You are very kind, Lily. You are a good friend. I don't need ice cream. I have you as my friend."
+
+They decided to share the coin and buy one ice cream to split. They enjoyed their treat and played some more. They learned that sharing is caring and that friendship is more valuable than things.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play games on the screen. The screen is big and bright. It has many colors and sounds. Sometimes they watch stories on the screen. Sometimes they draw pictures on the screen.

+Tim was a boy who liked to learn new things. He was good at reading and writing and counting. He was also good at making fun of other kids. He liked to laugh at their clothes, their hair, their names. He thought he was very smart and funny.
+
+One day, his teacher gave the class a quiz. It was about animals and their sounds. Tim knew all the answers. He finished the quiz very fast. He looked around and saw that some kids were still working. He saw a bald man who was helping the teacher. He decided to make a joke.
+
+He raised his hand and said, "Teacher, I have a question. What sound does the bald man make?" He expected everyone to laugh. But no one did. They all looked at him with angry or sad or scared faces. The teacher looked at him with a very serious face. She said, "Tim, that is not a nice thing to say. That bald man is my husband. He is very sick. He lost his hair because of his medicine. He came here today to see me and to help me with the quiz. He is very kind and brave. You should be ashamed of yourself."
+
+Tim felt a hot feeling in his face. He felt his eyes fill with tears. He realized he had said something very bad and hurtful. He had embarrassed himself and the teacher and the bald man.

He had to say sorry and mean it. He had to learn to be more respectful and kind. He had to change his ways. But it was too late. He had already lost the trust and friendship of his teacher and his classmates. He had made a big mistake that he would never forget.
+Lily wanted to make a cake for her mom. She had flour, eggs, milk and sugar. She mixed them in a big bowl. She poured the batter in a pan. She asked her dad to help her put the pan in the oven.
+
+"No, Lily, the oven is too hot for you. You might get hurt. Let me do it," her dad said.
+
+But Lily was stubborn. She wanted to do it by herself. She said, "No, dad, I can do it. I am a big girl. Please let me."

+Her dad shook his head. He said, "Lily, I know you are a big girl, but the oven is not a toy. It is dangerous. You have to listen to me. I will put the pan in the oven and you can watch."

+Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to dig holes in the sand and find things. Sometimes they found rocks, shells, or coins. They put them in a bucket and showed them to each other.
+
+"Look, I found a branch!" Tom said, holding up a long, thin stick. "It has green leaves and red berries. It is attractive."
+
+"Wow, it is!" Lila said, admiring the branch. "Can I see it?"
+
+Tom gave the branch to Lila. She touched the leaves and the berries gently. They felt soft and smooth.
+
+"Let's bury it in the sand," Lila said. "Then we can make a treasure map and find it again later."
+
+"OK, that sounds fun," Tom said. They dug a deep hole in the sand and put the branch inside. They covered it with more sand and patted it down. Then they drew a map on a piece of paper, using a crayon. They marked the spot where they buried the branch with an X.
+
+"Now we have a secret treasure," Lila said, smiling. "We can come back tomorrow and dig it up."
+
+"Or maybe someone else will find it and think it is beautiful," Tom said, wondering. "Maybe they will take it home and put it in a vase."
+
+"Or maybe they will leave it there and we can share it with them," Lila said, hoping. "Maybe they will be our new friends."
+
+They folded the map and put it in their pocket. They held hands and ran to the swings. They were happy. They had a branch, a map, and each other.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the woods. They liked to look for bugs and sticks and rocks. They saw a big log on the ground. It was brown and long and had holes in it.
+
+"Let's see what's inside the log," Ben said. He kicked the log with his foot. It made a loud noise.
+
+"Maybe there are some weird animals in there," Lily said. She bent down and peeked into one of the holes. She saw something shiny and green.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a treasure!" she said. She reached her hand into the hole to grab it.
+
+But it was not a treasure. It was a snake. The snake was angry that Ben and Lily disturbed its home. It bit Lily's hand with its sharp teeth. Lily screamed and pulled her hand out. It was bleeding and hurting.
+
+"Help, help!" she cried. "The snake bit me!"
+
+Ben was scared. He did not know what to do. He ran to find help. He hoped someone would provide help for Lily. But he ran the wrong way. He got lost in the woods. He could not find his way back to Lily or to his house.
+
+The snake slithered out of the log. It was hungry. It saw Lily lying on the ground. She was still crying and bleeding. The snake decided to eat her. It wrapped itself around her and squeezed her. Lily stopped crying. She stopped breathing. She was gone.
+
+The end.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the garden. They have a big ball that can bounce very high. They take turns to throw the ball and catch it.
+
+"Look, Anna, I can bounce the ball over the fence!" Ben says. He throws the ball with all his might. The ball flies over the fence and lands in the neighbor's yard.
+
+"Oh no, Ben, what if the neighbor is angry?" Anna says. She runs to the fence and looks over. She sees the ball lying on the grass, next to a big basket of fruit.
+
+"Wow, look at all the fruit!" Ben says. He climbs over the fence and runs to the basket. He picks up an apple and takes a bite. "Mmm, this is yummy!"
+
+"Ben, come back, we can't take the neighbor's fruit!" Anna says. She follows him over the fence and tries to pull him away from the basket.
+
+But before they can leave, they hear a loud voice. "Hey, you kids, what are you doing in my yard?" It is the neighbor, and he looks very angry. He is holding a hose and he sprays water at Anna and Ben.
+
+"Ahh, we're sorry, we're sorry!" Anna and Ben say. They drop the apple and the ball and run back to the fence. They are wet and cold and scared.
+
+They climb over the fence and run to their house. They knock on the door and their mom opens it. She sees them dripping wet and holding each other.
+
+"What happened to you?" she asks.
+
+"We bounced the ball over the fence and the neighbor sprayed us with water!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+"Oh dear, that was not very nice of him. But you shouldn't have taken his fruit either. That was not very nice of you. Come on, let's get you dry and warm. And maybe we can make some cookies and share them with the neighbor. Maybe he will be nicer then." Mom says.
+
+She hugs Anna and Ben and takes them inside. She hopes they learned their lesson. And she hopes the neighbor will accept their cookies.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog has a vest. The vest is red and blue. It says "help dog".
+
+"Wow, look at the dog!" Anna says. "He is so big and nice. Can we pet him?"
+
+Ben nods. They walk to the dog. The dog wags his tail. He likes Anna and Ben. They pet him and talk to him.
+
+"Hello, dog. What is your name?" Anna asks.
+
+The dog barks. He cannot talk. But he has a tag on his vest. The tag says "Rex".
+
+"His name is Rex," Ben says. "He is a help dog. He helps people who are sick or hurt."
+
+"That is very kind of him," Anna says. "He is a good dog."
+
+They play with Rex for a while. They throw a ball and he fetches it. They give him treats and he licks them. They hug him and he snuggles them.
+
+But then, a bad boy comes. He is bigger than Anna and Ben. He has a mean face. He sees Rex and his vest.
+
+"Hey, that is a cool vest," he says. "I want it. Give it to me."
+
+He tries to grab Rex's vest. Rex growls. He does not like the bad boy. He does not want to lose his vest. It is his vest. He needs it to help people.
+
+"Stop it!" Anna and Ben shout. "That is Rex's vest. You cannot have it. You cannot steal it. That is wrong."
+
+The bad boy does not listen. He pulls harder. Rex barks louder. He tries to bite the bad boy. The bad boy kicks Rex. Rex yelps.
+
+Anna and Ben are scared and angry. They run to Rex. They try to help him. They push the bad boy away.
+
+"Leave Rex alone!" they cry. "He is our friend. He is a kind dog. You are a bad boy. Go away."
+
+The bad boy is surprised. He did not expect Anna and Ben to fight back. He is afraid of Rex's teeth. He is ashamed of his actions. He drops Rex's vest. He runs away.
+
+"Sorry, Rex," he mumbles.
+
+Anna and Ben hug Rex. They check his vest. It is not torn or dirty. They put it back on him. They say sorry to him too.
+
+"Are you okay, Rex?" they ask.
+
+Rex wags his tail. He licks their faces. He is okay. He is happy. He forgives them. He thanks them.
+
+They smile. They are happy too. They are proud of themselves. They are brave and kind. They are good friends.
+
+They play with Rex some more. They have fun. They are careful with his vest. They respect him and his job. They love him and he loves them. They are a happy team.
+Lily liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to become a good cook like her mom. She put on a pink apron and asked her mom what she could do.
+
+Her mom said, "You can help me make a cake for dad. He will be home soon and he loves cake. It is easy. We just need to mix some things in a big bowl and put it in the oven."
+
+Lily was happy. She helped her mom measure the flour, the sugar, the eggs, and the butter. She stirred them with a big spoon. She poured the batter into a round pan. She put some sprinkles on top. She said, "Mom, this is fun!"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Yes, it is fun. But we also need to be careful. The oven is very hot. We need to use oven mitts to put the pan in and take it out. And we need to wait until the cake is cool before we cut it. Can you do that?"
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to be careful and not get hurt. She also wanted to make a good cake for dad. She used oven mitts to help her mom put the pan in the oven. She set the timer for 20 minutes. She waited patiently until the timer beeped. She used oven mitts again to help her mom take the pan out. She smelled the cake and it smelled yummy.
+
+She said, "Mom, can we cut the cake now?"
+
+Her mom said, "Not yet, Lily. The cake is still very hot. We need to let it cool down first. If we cut it now, it will fall apart and we will burn our mouths. Why don't we clean up the kitchen while we wait?"
+
+Lily agreed. She took off her apron and hung it on a hook. She washed the big bowl and the big spoon. She wiped the counter and the table. She said, "Mom, I like helping you in the kitchen. It makes me feel good."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I like helping you too, Lily. You are a very good helper. You are also a very good listener. You followed the instructions and you were careful and patient. That is how you become a good cook. And a good person. I am very proud of you."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt proud too. She heard the door open and dad came in. He saw the cake and said, "Wow, what a beautiful cake! Did you make it, Lily?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, dad. I helped mom. It is for you. We love you."
+
+Dad said, "I love you too, Lily. And I love your cake. Thank you for making it for me. Can I have a slice?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, dad. But first, you need to put on an apron. It is easy. And fun."
+Lily and Ben are playing with blocks. They want to make a big tower. Lily puts one block on top of another. Ben does the same. They are happy.
+
+But then, Tom comes. Tom is mean. He does not like to share. He wants all the blocks for himself. He pushes Lily and Ben away. He takes their blocks. He laughs.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They want their blocks back. They have an idea. They whisper to each other. They make a plan.
+
+They go to Tom. They say, "Tom, you are so smart. You can make the best tower ever. Can we see it?"
+
+Tom is proud. He says, "Yes, you can see it. But you cannot touch it. It is mine."
+
+He shows them his tower. It is very tall and wobbly. Lily and Ben pretend to be amazed. They say, "Wow, Tom, your tower is so big. How did you do it?"
+
+Tom says, "I used all the blocks. I put them in order. I am the best."
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, you are the best. But can you do one more thing? Can you strike your tower with your hand? We want to see how strong it is."
+
+Tom thinks. He says, "Yes, I can do that. I can strike my tower with my hand. It will not fall. Watch me."
+
+He raises his hand. He strikes his tower with his hand. But his tower is not strong. It falls down. All the blocks scatter. Tom is shocked.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They say, "Thank you, Tom. Now we have our blocks back. We can make our own tower. Bye, Tom."
+
+They take their blocks. They go to another corner. They make their own tower. It is not very tall, but it is strong and pretty. They are happy.
+Mia and Ben are playing in the sand. They make a big castle with a flag and a moat. They are happy and proud of their work.
+
+"Look, Mommy, look at our castle!" Mia shouts.
+
+Mommy smiles and takes a picture. "It's very nice, Mia and Ben. You are very good at building castles."
+
+"Can we go in the water now, Mommy?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, you can, but be careful. The water is cold and deep. Stay close to me and hold my hand." Mommy says.
+
+Mia and Ben run to the water. They splash and jump and laugh. They feel the cold water on their skin and the sun on their hair. They have fun.
+
+But soon they start to shiver. They are wet and cold. They want to go back to the sand.
+
+"Mommy, we are cold. Can we have a towel?" Mia says.
+
+"Of course, my loves. Come here, I have a warm towel for each of you." Mommy says.
+
+She wraps Mia and Ben in soft, warm towels. She hugs them and kisses them. They feel cozy and safe.
+
+"I hope you had a good time, Mia and Ben." Mommy says.
+
+"We did, Mommy. We love the beach. And we love you." Mia and Ben say.
+
+They snuggle in their towels and smile. They are happy.
+Lily and Sam are twins. They like to question everything. They ask their mom and dad many things every day. Sometimes they make their mom and dad tired.
+
+One day, they have a visit from their grandma and grandpa. They are very happy to see them. They hug and kiss them and show them their toys and books.
+
+"Grandma, why do you have white hair?" Lily questions.
+
+"Grandpa, why do you have glasses?" Sam questions.
+
+Grandma and grandpa smile and answer their questions. They tell them stories about when they were young. They say they have white hair and glasses because they are old and wise.
+
+Lily and Sam listen and learn. They think grandma and grandpa are very smart and kind. They want to be like them when they grow up.
+
+They have a fun visit. They play games and eat cookies and read books. Grandma and grandpa give them bright stickers and balloons. They say they love them very much.
+
+Lily and Sam say they love them too. They thank them for the visit and the gifts. They wave goodbye and promise to call them soon. They are very happy and grateful. They hug and kiss their mom and dad and go to bed. They dream of their grandma and grandpa.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with their toys and books. But today, they had to go to the store with Mom. They did not like the store. It was big and loud and boring.
+
+Mom put them in the van and drove to the store. Lily and Ben were miserable. They did not want to sit in the van. They wanted to run and jump and laugh. They started to cry and whine.
+
+"Please stop, Lily and Ben," Mom said. "We will be back soon. I just need to buy some things for dinner."
+
+But Lily and Ben did not stop. They cried louder and louder. They kicked the seats and threw their toys. Mom was angry and sad. She did not know what to do.
+
+Then, she saw a sign. It said: "Playground. Free for kids." Mom had an idea. She parked the van near the playground. She took Lily and Ben out of the van. She said: "Look, Lily and Ben. A playground. You can play here while I go to the store. It will be fun. But you have to be good and stay here. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They saw the swings and the slide and the sandbox. They forgot about the store. They ran to the playground. They smiled and laughed. They had fun.
+
+Mom went to the store. She bought some things for dinner. She came back to the playground. She saw Lily and Ben playing happily. She smiled and hugged them. She said: "Thank you, Lily and Ben. You were good and stayed here. I am proud of you. Now, let's go home and have dinner."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They got in the van. They were not miserable anymore. They were happy. They liked the playground. They liked Mom. They said: "We love you, Mom." Mom said: "I love you, too, Lily and Ben." They drove home. They had dinner. They played with their toys and books. They went to bed. They had a good day.
+Lila and Sam were playing on the beach. They liked to dig in the sand and look for shells and rocks. Sometimes they saw crabs and fish in the water.
+
+One day, they saw something big and strange in the water. It had eight arms and a round head. It was an octopus. Lila and Sam were curious and scared. They wanted to see it better, but they did not want to go too close.
+
+The octopus saw them too. It was not afraid. It was friendly and lonely. It wanted to play with them. It swam closer to the shore and waved its arms. It made a funny noise.
+
+"Hello, little ones," it said. "Do you want to play with me? I can show you many things in the water. I know where the ancient ship is. It has many treasures and secrets."
+
+Lila and Sam looked at each other. They did not know what to say. They had never talked to an octopus before. They wondered what the ancient ship was. They liked treasures and secrets.
+
+The octopus saw their hesitation. It wanted to make them happy. It offered them a gift. It reached into a hole in the sand and pulled out a shiny pearl. It held it in one of its arms and gave it to them.
+
+"Here, this is for you," it said. "It is very pretty and rare. I found it in the ship. You can have it if you play with me."
+
+Lila and Sam smiled. They liked the pearl. It was very pretty and rare. They thanked the octopus. They decided to play with it. They held hands and followed it into the water. They had a lot of fun. They saw the ancient ship and many other things. They made a new friend.
+Lily liked to dig in the dirt. She had a small shovel and a bucket. She wanted to find something shiny or pretty. One day, she saw a sparkly rock in the ground. She dug it out with her shovel and put it in her bucket. She was very happy. She had found a mineral.
+
+She ran to show her mom. She said, "Look, mom, I found a mineral. It is amazing. Can I keep it?" Her mom looked at the rock. She frowned. She said, "Lily, this is not a mineral. This is glass. It is sharp and dangerous. You could cut yourself. Where did you find it?"
+
+Lily pointed to the dirt. Her mom saw a big pile of broken bottles and cans. Someone had thrown them there. They were trash. Her mom said, "Lily, this is not a good place to dig. This is dirty and unsafe. You could get hurt. You have to throw away the glass. And you have to wash your hands and your shovel and your bucket. Come on, let's go inside."
+
+Lily felt sad. She had to give up her amazing mineral. She had to leave her dirt. She had to clean her things. She had not found something shiny or pretty. She had found something bad. She wished she had dug somewhere else.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play together at school. One day, they go to the art room. They see many pencils and papers on the table.
+
+"Let's draw something!" Tom says.
+
+"OK, what do you want to draw?" Lily asks.
+
+"I want to draw a car. A big, red car." Tom says.
+
+"I want to draw a flower. A pretty, yellow flower." Lily says.
+
+They pick up their pencils and start to draw. Tom draws a car with four wheels and a window. Lily draws a flower with a stem and a leaf. They are happy with their drawings.
+
+But then, Tom sees something on the floor. It is a slide. A shiny, blue slide. Tom likes slides. He wants to try it.
+
+"Look, Lily, a slide!" Tom says.
+
+"Where?" Lily asks.
+
+"Over there, by the wall. Come on, let's go!" Tom says.
+
+He puts down his pencil and runs to the slide. He climbs up the ladder and sits on the top. He is ready to slide down.
+
+But he forgets something. He forgets his pencil. His pencil is still in his hand. And his pencil is sharp.
+
+"Tom, wait!" Lily shouts. "You have your pencil!"
+
+But Tom does not hear her. He slides down the slide. He slides fast and fun. But then, he feels something. He feels something uncomfortable. He feels his pencil poke his leg. He feels pain.
+
+"Ow!" Tom cries. "Ow, ow, ow!"
+
+He stops at the bottom of the slide. He looks at his leg. He sees blood. He sees his pencil stuck in his leg. He is scared and sad.
+
+Lily runs to him. She sees his leg. She sees his pencil. She is worried and sorry.
+
+"Tom, are you OK?" Lily asks.
+
+"No, I'm not OK. It hurts. It hurts a lot." Tom says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. It was an accident. You forgot your pencil." Lily says.
+
+"I know, I know. I was silly. I should have put down my pencil." Tom says.
+
+"Let me help you. Let me get a teacher. They will make it better." Lily says.
+
+She goes to the door. She calls for a teacher. She tells them what happened. The teacher comes. They see Tom's leg. They see his pencil. They are shocked and concerned.
+
+They take Tom to the nurse. They take out his pencil. They clean his wound. They put a bandage on it. They give him a hug and a sticker. They tell him he will be OK.
+
+Tom feels a little better. He thanks the teacher and the nurse. He says sorry to Lily. He says he is still her friend.
+
+Lily smiles. She says she is still his friend. She says she likes his drawing. She says she likes his car.
+
+Tom smiles. He says he likes her drawing. He says he likes her flower.
+
+They hug. They are happy. They are friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the yard. They saw a wire on the ground. It was shiny and long.
+
+"Look, a wire!" Lily said. "Let's play with it!"
+
+Ben nodded. He picked up the wire and twisted it into a shape. "I made a star!" he said.
+
+Lily smiled. She took the wire and bent it into a circle. "I made a ring!" she said.
+
+They took turns making different things with the wire. They had fun.
+
+Then they heard a loud noise. It was the washing machine. Mom was washing their clothes.
+
+"Let's go see!" Lily said. "Maybe we can help Mom!"
+
+Ben agreed. They ran to the laundry room. They saw the washing machine. It was big and white. It had a round door with a window. They could see the clothes inside. They were wet and soapy.
+
+"Wow!" Lily said. "The clothes are dancing!"
+
+Ben laughed. He wanted to see more. He opened the door of the washing machine. The water and the clothes spilled out. They made a big mess.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" Lily asked. "That's silly!"
+
+Ben didn't answer. He saw the wire in his hand. He had an idea. He put the wire inside the washing machine. He thought it would make the clothes more shiny.
+
+But he was wrong. The wire touched something metal. There was a spark. There was a fire. There was a boom.
+
+Lily and Ben screamed. They ran out of the laundry room. They saw Mom. She was angry and scared.
+
+"What did you do?" Mom asked. "You could have been hurt!"
+
+Lily and Ben cried. They were sorry. They didn't mean to make a fire. They just wanted to play.
+
+But Mom was not happy. She was very mad. She took away the wire. She cleaned up the mess. She called Dad. She told him what happened.
+
+Lily and Ben had to go to their room. They had no more wire. They had no more fun. They had a bad ending.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to jump on the swings, slide down the slide, and run around the grass. They had so much fun that they did not hear their mom calling them.
+
+"Time for dinner, kids!" Mom shouted. "Come on, we have something rare and yummy!"
+
+Lily and Ben ran to their mom. They were hungry and curious. What was rare and yummy?
+
+Mom smiled and took them to the car. She drove them to a new place. It had a big sign that said "Pizza".
+
+"Pizza?" Lily asked. "What is pizza?"
+
+Mom explained that pizza was a flat bread with cheese and sauce and other things on top. You could pick what you liked. It was rare because they did not have it often.
+
+Lily and Ben were excited. They went inside and sat at a table. A nice man came and asked them what they wanted.
+
+"I want cheese and ham and pineapple!" Lily said.
+
+"I want cheese and pepperoni and olives!" Ben said.
+
+Mom ordered for them and also got a salad for herself. They waited for their pizza.
+
+When the pizza came, it smelled good. Lily and Ben took a bite. They liked it a lot. It was cheesy and sweet and salty and warm.
+
+"This is rare and yummy!" Lily said.
+
+"I agree!" Ben said.
+
+They ate their pizza and thanked the nice man. Mom was happy to see them enjoy their dinner.
+
+They went back to the car and drove home. They were full and tired. They brushed their teeth and put on their pajamas. Mom read them a story and tucked them in.
+
+"Good night, Lily and Ben," Mom said. "I love you."
+
+"Good night, Mom," Lily and Ben said. "We love you too. And we love pizza!"
+
+They closed their eyes and dreamed of jumping and playing and eating pizza. They had a rare and yummy day.
+Lily liked to dance. She liked to move her body in different ways. She was flexible. She could bend and twist and stretch. She could jump and spin and balance.
+
+She went to a dance class with other children. They learned new steps and songs. They had fun. The teacher was nice. She showed them how to dance. She clapped for them when they did well.
+
+One day, the teacher said they would have a show. They would dance for their families and friends. Lily was excited. She wanted to show what she could do. She practiced a lot. She wore a pretty dress and shoes.
+
+The day of the show came. Lily and her friends went on the stage. They smiled and waved. The music started. They danced together. Lily did her best. She was flexible. She bent and twisted and stretched. She jumped and spun and balanced.
+
+The music ended. The audience clapped. Lily heard her mom and dad clapping. They were proud of her. She felt happy. She clapped for her friends. They clapped for her. They hugged and thanked the teacher. They had a great show.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the garden. They see a small mouse under a bush. The mouse has a long tail and a round nose. Lily and Tom want to say hello to the mouse.
+
+"Hello, mouse!" Lily says. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The mouse looks at Lily and Tom. He is scared. He does not know them. He thinks they are big and loud.
+
+"Go away!" the mouse says. "You are not my friends. You are mean."
+
+Lily and Tom are sad. They are not mean. They are nice. They want to be friends with the mouse.
+
+"Why are you mean?" Tom says. "We have a gift for you. Look!"
+
+Tom shows the mouse a yellow lemon. He picked it from the tree. He thinks the mouse will like it. It is bright and juicy.
+
+The mouse sees the lemon. He is curious. He likes bright things. He comes out of the bush. He sniffs the lemon.
+
+"Can I have a bite?" the mouse says.
+
+"Sure!" Tom says. "Here you go!"
+
+The mouse takes a bite of the lemon. He makes a funny face. He spits out the lemon. He does not like it. It is sour.
+
+"Yuck!" the mouse says. "This is not a gift. This is a trick. You are mean. Go away!"
+
+The mouse runs back to the bush. He hides under the leaves. He does not want to see Lily and Tom anymore.
+
+Lily and Tom are confused. They do not understand. They like the lemon. It is sour, but it is good. They do not know why the mouse does not like it.
+
+"Maybe he likes something else," Lily says.
+
+"Maybe he likes cheese," Tom says.
+
+"Maybe we can try again," Lily says.
+
+"Maybe we can be friends," Tom says.
+
+They look at the bush. They hope the mouse will come out again. They want to say sorry. They want to share their cheese. They want to play with the mouse.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big balloon in the sky. It is red and yellow and blue. It is brilliant.
+
+"Look, look!" Anna says. "A balloon!"
+
+"Wow!" Ben says. "It is so big and bright!"
+
+They run to their mom and dad and point at the balloon. Mom and dad smile and hug them.
+
+"Would you like to ride in the balloon?" dad asks.
+
+"Yes, yes!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They go to the balloon man and buy tickets. They climb into the basket with mom and dad. The balloon man turns on the fire. The balloon goes up, up, up.
+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They see the park, the trees, the cars, the houses. They see the sun and the clouds. They see the east and the west.
+
+"Look, look!" Ben says. "The east is orange and pink!"
+
+"Wow!" Anna says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+They clap their hands and cheer. Mom and dad clap too. The balloon man smiles and says:
+
+"You are very lucky. You have a brilliant view!"
+Tom and Lily were playing in the sandbox. They had buckets and shovels and molds. They made castles and cakes and animals with the sand. They were having fun.
+
+But then Ben came. Ben was older and bigger than Tom and Lily. He had a big red truck. He drove his truck over Tom and Lily's sand creations. He smashed them and laughed. He said, "My truck is better than your sand. You are silly and boring."
+
+Tom and Lily were sad and angry. They did not like Ben. They wanted him to go away. They were jealous of his truck. They wanted to play with it.
+
+Lily had an idea. She whispered to Tom, "Let's make a trap for Ben. We can use this powder. It is from the flowers. It makes you sneeze."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked Lily's idea. They took some powder and put it in a small pile. They covered it with some sand. They made it look like a hill. They waited for Ben to come.
+
+Ben saw the hill. He thought it was another sand creation. He wanted to smash it with his truck. He drove his truck over the hill. But then he saw the powder. It flew into his nose and mouth. He started to sneeze. He sneezed and sneezed and sneezed. He could not stop. He dropped his truck and ran away.
+
+Tom and Lily laughed. They were happy. They had tricked Ben. They took his truck and played with it. They raised it up and down. They made it go fast and slow. They said, "This is our truck now. We are smart and fun."
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to visit their grandma on the farm. Grandma has many animals: cows, pigs, sheep, chickens and a dog. Lily and Ben love to feed the animals and play with the dog.
+
+One day, grandma makes a tasty pie for lunch. She puts it on the table and tells Lily and Ben to wait until it cools down. Then she goes to the barn to check on the cows. Lily and Ben nod and sit on the chairs. They smell the pie and their mouths water.
+
+"I want a piece of pie now," Lily says. "It looks so good."
+
+"But grandma said to wait," Ben says. "It is too hot. You will burn your tongue."
+
+Lily does not listen. She gets up and reaches for the pie. Ben tries to stop her, but it is too late. Lily grabs the pie and pulls it off the table. The pie falls on the floor and breaks into pieces. The dog runs over and starts to eat the pie.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cries. "We ruined the pie! Grandma will be so mad!"
+
+Ben is also sad. He wanted to eat the pie too. He looks at Lily and the dog. He does not know what to do.
+
+"Maybe we can make another pie," Lily says. "We can use the apples from the tree."
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He nods. He hopes grandma will not be too angry. He and Lily go to the kitchen and look for the ingredients. They try to make a new pie, but they make a big mess. They spill flour, sugar, butter and eggs everywhere. They do not know how to roll the dough or cut the apples. They put the pie in the oven and hope for the best.
+
+Grandma comes back from the barn. She sees the pie on the floor and the dog licking his lips. She sees the mess in the kitchen and the smoke from the oven. She sees Lily and Ben with their faces covered in flour. She is very surprised.
+
+"What happened here?" she asks.
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry. They tell grandma the truth. They say they are sorry. They say they wanted to make a new pie for her.
+
+Grandma sighs. She is not happy, but she is not mad either. She loves Lily and Ben. She knows they are still learning. She hugs them and tells them it is okay. She tells them to help her clean up the mess. She tells them to be more careful next time. She tells them to listen to her words.
+
+She takes the pie out of the oven. It is not very pretty, but it is still tasty. She cuts a piece for each of them and one for the dog. They sit on the table and eat the pie. They smile and say thank you. They are happy. They love grandma and the farm.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to swing, slide and run on the grass. They saw some ducks in the pond and threw some bread for them. The ducks made funny noises and ate the bread.
+
+"Look, mom, the ducks are happy!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, they are. And you know what? I have a surprise for you two," mom said.
+
+"A surprise? What is it?" Ben asked.
+
+Mom smiled and took out a big bag from behind a bench. She opened it and showed them two fancy hats. One was red with a feather and the other was blue with a star.
+
+"These are your rewards for being good kids. You can wear them and pretend to be pirates or princes or whatever you want," mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben were very excited. They put on the hats and thanked mom. They felt very fancy and special. They ran around the park, making up stories and having fun. Mom watched them and felt happy too. She loved to see them smile.
+Sara and Tom are friends who like to play at the beach. They make sand castles and look for shells. One day, they find a big shell that is shiny and pink. Sara wants to keep it, but Tom says it is his.
+
+"Give me the shell, Sara. I saw it first," Tom says.
+
+"No, Tom. It is mine. I like it more," Sara says.
+
+They start to pull the shell from each other. They are angry and sad. They do not want to share.
+
+A big wave comes and splashes them. The shell falls from their hands and goes into the water. They cannot see it anymore. They are wet and cold.
+
+"Oh no, we lost the shell," Sara says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara. I was mean to you. We should have shared the shell," Tom says.
+
+"I'm sorry, too, Tom. I was selfish. We could have taken turns to hold the shell," Sara says.
+
+They hug and say they are sorry. They learn that sharing is better than fighting. They go back to play and have fun. They find more shells and make a necklace for each other. They are happy and kind.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw a big bench near a tree. The bench was old and had many cracks and stains. Sara and Tom wanted to sit on the bench and rest.
+
+They ran to the bench and climbed on it. They felt the wood was rough and hard. They saw a man sitting on the other end of the bench. The man was old and had white hair and a long beard. He smiled at Sara and Tom.
+
+"Hello, little ones. Do you like the bench?" the man asked.
+
+Sara and Tom nodded. They were shy and did not talk much.
+
+"I like the bench too. I come here every day. This bench is very special to me. Do you know why?" the man said.
+
+Sara and Tom shook their heads. They did not know.
+
+The man pointed to a small plaque on the bench. It had some words on it. Sara and Tom could not read them.
+
+"This bench is for my wife. She died last year. She loved this park and this bench. We used to sit here and watch the birds and the flowers. She was very kind and beautiful. I miss her a lot." the man said.
+
+Sara and Tom felt sad for the man. They realized he was lonely and sad. They wanted to make him happy.
+
+They moved closer to the man and hugged him. They said, "We are sorry for your wife. She must have been very nice. We like you. You are nice too. Can we be your friends?"
+
+The man was surprised and touched. He hugged them back. He said, "Thank you, little ones. You are very sweet and brave. I would love to be your friends. What are your names?"
+
+Sara and Tom told him their names. They talked and laughed with the man. They felt happy and warm. They liked the bench and the man. They decided to come back to the park and visit him again.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a new boy sitting on a bench. He looked sad and lonely. Ben and Lily wanted to be his friend.
+
+"Hi, what is your name?" Ben asked the boy.
+
+"Tom," the boy said in a low voice.
+
+"Do you want to play with us?" Lily asked. "We have a ball and a kite."
+
+Tom shook his head. "No, thank you. I don't like to play. I just moved here and I miss my old home."
+
+Ben and Lily felt sorry for Tom. They knew how hard it was to leave a place you loved. They decided to do something nice for him.
+
+"Wait here, we will be back soon," Ben said. He and Lily ran to the ice cream truck and bought three cones. One was vanilla, one was chocolate, and one was lemon.
+
+They came back to the bench and gave Tom the lemon cone. "Here, this is for you. We hope you like it," Lily said.
+
+Tom took the cone and smiled a little. He licked the ice cream and made a face. It was bitter and sour. He did not like it at all.
+
+"Yuck, this is awful!" he said. "Why did you give me this?"
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other. They did not understand. They liked lemon ice cream. It was sweet and refreshing.
+
+"We thought you would like it. It is our favorite flavor," Ben said.
+
+"Well, I don't. I like vanilla. It is smooth and creamy," Tom said.
+
+He threw the cone on the ground and walked away. He did not say thank you or goodbye.
+
+Ben and Lily felt hurt and angry. They had tried to be nice and welcome Tom, but he was rude and ungrateful. They picked up the cone and threw it in the trash.
+
+"Come on, let's go play," Ben said. He hugged Lily by the neck and kissed her cheek.
+
+"OK, let's go," Lily said. She hugged Ben back and smiled.
+
+They ran to the swings and had fun. They did not need Tom to be happy. They had each other.
+Ben and Mia liked to play outside when the sun was shining. They ran and jumped and laughed on the green ground. They saw many things that made them happy: flowers, birds, bugs, and clouds.
+
+One day, they found something new on the ground. It was small and round and shiny. It looked like a star that fell from the sky. Ben picked it up and showed it to Mia.
+
+"Look, Mia, a star!" he said.
+
+"Wow, Ben, it's so pretty!" she said. "Can I hold it?"
+
+Ben gave it to Mia and she smiled. She felt the star was warm and smooth in her hand. She wanted to keep it forever.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was a big dog that came running towards them. It barked and growled and showed its teeth. Ben and Mia were scared. They dropped the star and ran away.
+
+The dog saw the star on the ground. It thought it was a toy. It grabbed it with its mouth and ran away too.
+
+Ben and Mia hid behind a tree. They were sad and angry. They lost their star.
+
+"Bad dog!" Ben said. "He took our star!"
+
+"I know, Ben," Mia said. "I wish we could get it back."
+
+They looked at the sky and saw many stars shining. They wondered if one of them was their star. They hoped it was happy and safe. They decided to make a wish.
+
+"Maybe, if we wish hard enough, our star will come back to us," Mia said.
+
+"OK, Mia, let's wish," Ben said.
+
+They closed their eyes and wished with all their hearts. They wished for their star to shine for them again. They wished for the dog to be nice and give it back. They wished for a happy ending.
+Lily and Ben were twins who lived in a big house with their mom and dad. They liked to play with their toys, read books, and watch cartoons. They were obedient children who listened to their parents and did not make trouble.
+
+One day, their dad came home with a big bag and a sad face. He hugged them and said, "I have to leave for a while. There is a war in another place and I have to help. I love you very much and I will come back soon."
+
+Lily and Ben did not understand what war was, but they saw that their mom was crying and their dad was worried. They hugged him back and said, "We love you too, dad. Please be safe and come back soon."
+
+Their dad gave them each a small toy soldier and said, "These are for you. They will protect you and remind you of me. Keep them close and take good care of them. I will miss you every day."
+
+He kissed them and their mom and left with his bag. Lily and Ben watched him go and felt a big hole in their hearts. They held their toy soldiers and hoped that their dad would be okay.
+
+The next weeks were hard for Lily and Ben. They missed their dad a lot and worried about him. They tried to be brave and obedient and help their mom with the chores. They also prayed for their dad every night and talked to their toy soldiers as if they were their dad.
+
+One day, they heard a loud noise outside. They ran to the window and saw a big truck with a flag. Their mom screamed and ran to the door. Lily and Ben followed her and saw their dad getting out of the truck. He was dirty and tired, but he was smiling. He dropped his bag and ran to them. He hugged them and their mom and said, "I'm home, I'm home. The war is over and I'm home."
+
+Lily and Ben were so happy that they cried and laughed at the same time. They showed their dad their toy soldiers and said, "We kept them close and took good care of them. They protected us and reminded us of you. We missed you every day."
+
+Their dad kissed them and said, "You are the best children in the world. I'm so proud of you and I'm so sorry I had to leave. But I'm here now and I will never leave you again. I love you more than anything."
+
+They went inside and had a big dinner and a big cake. They told their dad everything that happened while he was gone and he told them some stories about the war. They were happy and grateful to be together again. They thanked God for bringing their dad home and for ending the war. They hugged their toy soldiers and put them on the shelf. They did not need them anymore, because their dad was home.
+Jen and Ben were twins who liked to play at the beach. They had a big bucket and a small spoon. They liked to stir the sand and water in the bucket and pretend it was soup.
+
+One day, they saw something shiny and wiggly in the water. It was a jellyfish. Jen and Ben were curious. They wanted to see it closer. They took their bucket and spoon and walked to the water.
+
+"Look, Jen, it's a jellyfish!" Ben said. "It's so pretty and soft. Can we put it in our bucket?"
+
+"No, Ben, we can't," Jen said. "Jellyfish can hurt us. They have stingers. We have to leave it alone."
+
+"But I want to stir it with my spoon," Ben said. "Maybe it will make our soup better."
+
+"Ben, no!" Jen said. "Don't touch it. It's not a toy. It's a living thing. We have to be nice to it."
+
+Jen and Ben heard a voice behind them. It was their mom. She was holding a big towel and a bag. She was very organized. She always had everything they needed.
+
+"Hi, kids, what are you doing?" she asked.
+
+"We're making soup, mom," Jen said. "But we saw a jellyfish. It's so cool."
+
+"Wow, a jellyfish," mom said. "Yes, it's very cool. But you're right, Jen, you can't touch it. It can sting you and make you feel bad. You have to be careful around it."
+
+"OK, mom, we will," Ben said. "But can we look at it some more?"
+
+"Sure, you can look at it, but from a safe distance," mom said. "And then we can go back to our spot and have a snack. I brought some real soup for you. And some crackers and juice."
+
+"Yay, soup!" Jen and Ben said. They put their bucket and spoon down and followed their mom. They waved goodbye to the jellyfish and thanked it for being so cool. They were happy to play at the beach.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they see a big slide. Mia wants to go on the slide, but Tom is scared.
+
+"Come on, Tom, it is fun!" Mia says. "You can go after me."
+
+Mia climbs up the ladder and sits on the slide. She smiles and waves at Tom. Then she pushes herself down the slide. She goes very fast and laughs.
+
+Tom watches Mia. He thinks the slide looks fun, but he is still scared. He climbs up the ladder slowly. He sits on the slide, but he does not push himself. He holds on to the sides.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing?" Mia asks. "You have to push yourself!"
+
+Tom shakes his head. He does not want to push himself. He wants to go back down the ladder.
+
+But then he sees a big dog. The dog is barking and running towards the slide. The dog looks angry and hungry. Tom is more scared of the dog than the slide.
+
+"Help, Mia, help!" Tom cries. "There is a big dog!"
+
+Mia sees the dog too. She is scared, but she is also wise. She knows what to do.
+
+"Tom, listen to me!" Mia says. "You have to push yourself now! The dog cannot catch you if you go down the slide!"
+
+Tom trusts Mia. He pushes himself down the slide. He goes very fast and feels the wind in his hair. He reaches the bottom and runs to Mia. They hug each other.
+
+The dog stops at the slide. He cannot climb up the ladder. He cannot go down the slide. He barks and growls, but he cannot reach Tom and Mia.
+
+Tom and Mia are safe. They are happy. They are brave.
+
+"Thank you, Mia," Tom says. "You are a good friend. You are very wise."
+
+"You are welcome, Tom," Mia says. "You are a good friend too. You are very brave."
+
+They smile and hold hands. They go to play on the swings. They have fun. They are not scared of the slide or the dog anymore. They are friends.
+Tom and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. Tom had a big truck and Mia had a doll with a pretty bow in her hair. Tom liked the bow and wanted it for his truck. He went to Mia and said, "Give me the bow. I want it."
+
+Mia said, "No, Tom. This is my bow. It is for my doll. You have your truck. Go away."
+
+Tom got angry and said, "No, Mia. You have to give me the bow. I demand it. It is mine now." He grabbed the bow from Mia's doll and ran to his truck.
+
+Mia cried and said, "Tom, that is not nice. You are mean. Give me back my bow. It is not yours." She ran after Tom and tried to get the bow.
+
+Tom did not listen and said, "Ha ha, Mia. I have the bow. You can't have it. It is better on my truck. Look how pretty it is." He put the bow on his truck and drove it around.
+
+Mia was very sad and angry. She wanted her bow back. She saw a pair of scissors on the table. She had an idea. She took the scissors and said, "Fine, Tom. If you don't give me back my bow, I will cut it. Then you can't have it either." She ran to Tom's truck and tried to cut the bow.
+
+Tom saw Mia with the scissors and said, "No, Mia. Don't cut the bow. That is dangerous. You can hurt yourself or me. Stop it." He tried to stop Mia, but it was too late.
+
+Mia cut the bow with the scissors, but she also cut Tom's finger. Tom screamed and said, "Ow, Mia. That hurts. You cut me. You are bad. I hate you." He dropped his truck and held his finger.
+
+Mia saw the blood and said, "Oh, Tom. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cut you. I just wanted my bow. Are you okay?" She dropped the scissors and the bow and went to Tom.
+
+Tom was not glad. He was hurt and angry. He said, "Go away, Mia. You are not my friend. You are mean and bad. I don't want to play with you ever again." He ran to his mom and showed her his finger.
+
+Mia was not glad. She was sorry and sad. She said, "Tom, please. Don't be mad. I'm sorry. I want to be your friend. Please forgive me." She ran after Tom and tried to hug him.
+
+But Tom did not want to hug Mia. He pushed her away and said, "No, Mia. Leave me alone. You are not my friend. You are the worst." He cried and hugged his mom.
+
+Mia cried and hugged her doll. She wished she had her bow back. She wished Tom was her friend again. She wished they could play together. But they couldn't. They had a bad ending.
+Lila loves her kitten, Fluffy. She hugs him and plays with him every day. Fluffy is soft and warm and purrs when Lila pets him. Lila is happy with her kitten.
+
+One day, Lila goes to the park with her mom. She sees a boy with a big red ball. He throws the ball and runs after it. He laughs and has fun. Lila wants to play with the ball too. She feels envious of the boy.
+
+She asks her mom if she can have a ball like that. Her mom says no, they have to go home soon. Lila is sad and angry. She does not want to go home. She does not want to play with Fluffy.
+
+She runs away from her mom and tries to take the ball from the boy. The boy is surprised and scared. He shouts at Lila and pushes her away. Lila falls and hurts her knee. She cries and cries.
+
+Her mom comes and picks her up. She hugs her and says sorry. She tells her that it is not nice to take things from others. She tells her that she should be grateful for what she has. She tells her that Fluffy is waiting for her at home.
+
+Lila feels ashamed and sorry. She says sorry to the boy and gives him back his ball. She says sorry to her mom and hugs her. She wants to go home and see Fluffy.
+
+They go home and open the door. Fluffy is there, happy to see them. He runs to Lila and rubs his head against her leg. He meows and purrs. Lila smiles and picks him up. She kisses him and says sorry. She tells him that he is her best friend and that she loves him. Fluffy snuggles with her and licks her face. Lila is happy with her kitten.
+Tom was a bald boy who liked to eat a lot. He ate more than his friends and more than his mom and dad. He ate so much that his stomach was always big and round. He did not like to share his food or play with others. He only liked to eat.
+
+One day, he saw a big cake on the table. It was his mom's birthday cake, but he did not care. He wanted to eat it all by himself. He grabbed the cake and ran to his room. He locked the door and started to eat the cake. It was sweet and soft and yummy.
+
+But soon, he felt sick. His stomach hurt and he felt like throwing up. He wished he had not eaten the cake. He wished he had shared it with his mom and dad and friends. He wished he had said happy birthday to his mom. He felt bad and sad.
+
+He heard a knock on the door. It was his mom. She asked him if he was okay. She said she was worried about him. She said she loved him. Tom felt sorry. He opened the door and hugged his mom. He said he was sorry. He said he loved her too.
+
+He gave her the rest of the cake. It was not much, but it was enough. His mom smiled and thanked him. She said it was the best birthday gift ever. She said she was proud of him. Tom smiled too. He felt better. He recognized that eating too much was not good. He recognized that sharing and caring was better. He learned his lesson. He was a bald boy who liked to eat a lot, but he was also a good boy who liked to love a lot.
+Tom and Lily moved to a new house with Mom and Dad. They had many boxes to unpack. Mom and Dad said they could play in the backyard after they unpacked their toys.
+
+Tom and Lily opened their boxes and took out their toys. They had dolls, cars, balls, books, and puzzles. They put them on their beds and shelves. They were happy to see their toys again.
+
+"Can we go to the backyard now?" Tom asked Mom.
+
+"Yes, you can. But be careful. The backyard is very big and rough. There are rocks and sticks and holes. Don't go too far or get hurt," Mom said.
+
+"OK, Mom. We will be careful," Lily said.
+
+Tom and Lily ran to the backyard. They saw a big tree, a swing, a slide, and a sandbox. They also saw a small house made of wood. It looked old and dirty.
+
+"Wow, look at that house! Let's go inside!" Tom said.
+
+"Wait, Tom. Maybe we shouldn't. Mom said the backyard is rough. Maybe the house is rough too. Maybe there are spiders or rats or ghosts," Lily said.
+
+"Don't be silly, Lily. There are no spiders or rats or ghosts. It's just a house. Come on, it will be fun!" Tom said.
+
+Tom and Lily went to the house. They opened the door and stepped inside. It was dark and dusty. They saw a table, a chair, a bed, and a closet. They also saw something shiny on the floor.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Let's see," Tom said.
+
+Tom and Lily walked to the shiny thing. They picked it up. It was a key. It had a tag that said "Treasure".
+
+"Wow, a key! Maybe there is a treasure in the house!" Tom said.
+
+"Maybe. But where?" Lily asked.
+
+Tom and Lily looked around. They saw a lock on the closet. They tried the key. It fit. They opened the closet. They saw a big box. It had a label that said "Toys".
+
+"Wow, a box of toys! Maybe this is the treasure!" Tom said.
+
+"Maybe. Let's open it!" Lily said.
+
+Tom and Lily opened the box. They saw many toys. They saw dolls, cars, balls, books, and puzzles. They were the same toys they had unpacked in their room.
+
+"Hey, these are our toys! How did they get here?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe Mom and Dad put them here as a surprise. Maybe they wanted us to find them and have fun," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe. Or maybe someone else did. Maybe someone who lived here before. Maybe someone who liked toys as much as we do," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe. But who?" Lily asked.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They heard a noise. It sounded like a laugh. It came from the bed. They saw a shadow. It looked like a child.
+
+"Who are you?" Tom and Lily asked.
+
+The end.
+Lily loved her purple doll very much. She hugged it and played with it every day. She gave it a name: Poppy. Poppy had a pretty dress and long hair. Lily and Poppy were best friends.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said they had to move to a new house. She said they had to pack their things and sell some of them. Lily did not want to sell her things. She wanted to keep them all. She especially did not want to sell Poppy.
+
+"Mom, can I keep Poppy, please?" Lily asked. "She is my favorite doll. I love her so much."
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily, but we can't take all your toys with us. We have to sell some of them to get money for the new house. Poppy is a very nice doll. I'm sure someone else will love her too." Mom said.
+
+"But I don't want someone else to love her. I want to love her. She is mine." Lily said. She held Poppy tight and cried.
+
+Mom hugged Lily and said, "I know, sweetie, I know. It's hard to say goodbye to your things. But sometimes we have to make changes. And we can always buy new things later. Maybe you can find a new doll that you like in the new house. Or maybe you can make a new friend who has a doll that you can play with."
+
+Lily did not like what Mom said. She did not want a new doll or a new friend. She wanted Poppy. She did not want to sell her. She did not want to move. She did not want to change. She was very sad and angry.
+
+She ran to her room and hid Poppy under her pillow. She hoped Mom would not find her. She hoped they would not sell her. She hoped they would not move. She hoped everything would stay the same. She hoped Poppy would always be with her.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the woods. They had a secret fort made of lumber that they found near the old mill. The lumber was rough and had nails and splinters, but they did not care. They pretended to be pirates or knights or explorers in their fort.
+
+One day, they decided to go on a treasure hunt. They made a map with crayons and hid a box of candy in a hole under a big rock. They marked the spot with a red flag. Then they went back to their fort and followed the map.
+
+"Arr, matey, we are almost there!" Tom said, holding the map.
+
+"Yay, I can't wait to eat the candy!" Sam said, licking his lips.
+
+They walked and walked until they saw the red flag. They dug up the hole and opened the box. But there was no candy inside. There was only a note that said: "Ha ha, I got your candy. Love, Amy."
+
+Amy was their sister who liked to tease them. She had followed them and taken their candy when they were not looking. She had also changed the map and the flag.
+
+Tom and Sam were very angry and sad. They had forgotten to hide their map and flag well. They had also forgotten that Amy was sneaky and smart. They learned a hard lesson that day. They decided to make a new treasure and a new map, and to keep them safe from Amy. They also decided to play a trick on her to get their candy back. But that is another story.
+Lily liked to crawl on the grass and look for bugs. She saw ants, worms, and beetles. She wanted to find a butterfly. She knew butterflies were pretty and had wings.
+
+One day, she saw a big flower with many colors. She crawled closer and saw a butterfly on the flower. It was yellow and black and had spots. Lily smiled and reached out her hand. She wanted to touch the butterfly.
+
+But the butterfly was scared of Lily. It flew away from the flower and into the air. Lily was sad. She wanted to play with the butterfly. She crawled after it, but it was too fast. She could not catch it.
+
+Lily did not give up. She was brave. She crawled and crawled, following the butterfly. She crossed the path, the fence, and the pond. She did not mind the dirt, the rocks, or the water. She only wanted the butterfly.
+
+At last, she reached a big tree. The butterfly landed on a branch. Lily crawled to the tree and looked up. She saw the butterfly. It was still pretty and had wings. Lily stood up and stretched her arms. She wanted to reach the butterfly.
+
+But the butterfly was not scared of Lily anymore. It saw that Lily was brave and kind. It flew down from the branch and landed on Lily's nose. Lily giggled and blinked. She felt the butterfly tickle her. She was happy. She had found a butterfly.
+Lily was very happy. It was her birthday today. She had a new dress that was pink and pretty. She wanted to show it to her friends at the party. But her brother Max was mean. He wanted to play a trick on her.
+
+He took her dress and ran away. He hid it under his bed. He laughed and said, "You can't find it, you can't find it!" Lily was sad and angry. She cried and said, "Give it back, give it back!"
+
+She looked for her dress everywhere. She asked her mom and dad, but they did not know. They were busy with the cake and the balloons. She asked her dog and her cat, but they did not help. They only barked and meowed.
+
+She was about to give up, when she saw a clue. She saw a pink ribbon sticking out from under Max's bed. She ran to his room and pulled out her dress. She was happy and relieved. She put on her dress and smiled. She looked attractive and ready for the party.
+
+She went to the living room, where her friends were waiting. They cheered and clapped. They said, "You look beautiful, Lily! Happy birthday!" Lily thanked them and hugged them. She was happy and forgot about Max.

+But Max was not happy. He was sorry and ashamed. He realized he was wrong and mean. He came to the living room and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was bad. I hid your dress. Can you forgive me?" Lily looked at him and thought for a moment. She said, "Yes, I forgive you. But don't do it again. And you have to help me blow the candles." Max nodded and smiled. He said, "OK, I will. And happy birthday, Lily." They hugged and made up. They blew the candles and ate the cake. They had fun and played games. They had a good birthday.
+Sam and Lily liked to play with their toy cars and trucks. They had a big box of them, and they made roads and bridges and buildings with blocks and cardboard. One day, they decided to make a stadium for their cars to race in. They used a big round cake pan and some paper cups and tape.
+
+"Look, Lily, our stadium is done!" Sam said. "Let's have a race. You can be the red car and I'll be the blue one."
+
+"Okay, Sam, but be careful. Don't crash into the cups. They might break," Lily said.
+
+They put their cars in the pan and started to make engine noises. They moved their cars around the pan, pretending to speed and pass and drift. They had a lot of fun, but they also bumped into the cups sometimes. Some of the cups fell over or got squished.
+
+"Oh no, Sam, you broke the stadium!" Lily said. "Now we can't race anymore."
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to. It was an accident," Sam said. He felt bad for ruining their game.
+
+"Maybe we can repair it," Lily said. "We still have some tape and some more cups. We can fix the stadium and make it better."
+
+"Really? Do you think so?" Sam said. He felt hopeful.
+
+"Sure, why not? It's just a game. It's harmless. Come on, let's try," Lily said. She smiled and gave Sam a hug.
+
+They got some more tape and cups and started to repair their stadium. They worked together and made it stronger and prettier. They even added some stickers and flags to decorate it.
+
+"Wow, Lily, you're right. Our stadium is better than before. Thank you for helping me," Sam said.
+
+"You're welcome, Sam. Thank you for playing with me. Now let's have another race. But this time, let's be more careful," Lily said.
+
+They put their cars in the pan again and started to race. They were more careful, but they also had more fun. They laughed and cheered and enjoyed their game. They were happy.
+Lily was excited to help Mom with the dishes. She liked to put the cups and plates in the dishwasher. She wanted to be a big girl and do things by herself.
+
+"Can I close the dishwasher, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, honey, but be careful. Don't slam it too hard, or you might break something," Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded and pushed the dishwasher door with her hands. But she pushed too hard and the door banged shut. Lily heard a loud crack and saw a piece of glass fall on the floor.
+
+"Oh no! I broke the glass!" Lily cried.
+
+Mom came over and saw the broken glass. She was not happy, but she was not angry either. She hugged Lily and said, "It's okay, sweetie. Accidents happen. But next time, you have to be more gentle with the dishwasher. Glass is fragile and can break easily. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I didn't mean to break the glass. I just wanted to help."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I know, honey. And I appreciate your help. But now we have to clean up the mess. Can you help me pick up the big pieces of glass and put them in the trash? But be careful, don't touch the sharp edges, or you might hurt yourself."
+
+Lily said, "Yes, Mom. I can do that. And next time, I will close the dishwasher softly."
+
+Mom and Lily worked together to clean up the broken glass. Then they finished loading the dishwasher and turned it on. Lily felt better and learned a lesson. She was still excited to help Mom, but she was also more careful.
+Sara loved to sing. She sang in the morning, she sang at lunch, she sang at night. She sang to her dolls, her books, her mom and dad. She sang happy songs, sad songs, silly songs. She sang all the time.
+
+One day, Sara found a white closet in her room. She had never seen it before. She opened the door and saw many pretty dresses and shoes. She wanted to try them on. She took a pink dress and a pair of shiny shoes and put them on. She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. She felt like a princess.
+
+She decided to sing a song for her new dress and shoes. She sang in a loud voice, "I am a princess, I am so pretty, I have a pink dress and shiny shoes, I am a princess, I am so happy!" She twirled and danced and sang.
+
+But she did not hear her mom calling her name. She did not hear her mom saying, "Sara, where are you? It's time for dinner. Sara, come downstairs. Sara, answer me!" She did not hear her mom getting worried and angry.
+
+She did not hear her mom opening the closet door. She did not see her mom's face. She only heard her mom's voice, very loud and very scary. "Sara, what are you doing? How did you get in there? Whose clothes are these? You are in big trouble, young lady!" Sara stopped singing. She felt very scared. She wished she had not found the white closet. She wished she had listened to her mom. She wished she had not sung so loud.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play a lot. They had many toys and games, but they also liked to explore the world. Sometimes they went to the park, or the zoo, or the beach, and saw many things.
+
+One day, their mom said, "It's time for your nap, Tom and Lily. You need to rest and grow." But Tom and Lily did not want to nap. They wanted to keep playing and exploring. They said, "No, mom, we are not tired. We want to see more of the world."
+
+Mom was patient and said, "I know you are curious and brave, but you also need to listen and obey. Napping is good for you. It helps you stay healthy and happy. And when you wake up, you can see more of the world. There is always something new to learn and enjoy."
+
+Tom and Lily thought about it and decided to give napping a try. They hugged their mom and went to their room. They snuggled with their teddy bears and closed their eyes. Soon they fell asleep and had sweet dreams.
+
+When they woke up, they felt refreshed and cheerful. They thanked their mom for being patient and caring. They realized that napping was not so bad after all. It made them feel better and ready for more adventures. They learned that sometimes they need to slow down and rest, and that listening to their mom was a good thing. They also learned that the world was still there, waiting for them to explore and have fun.
+Tim and Liz are brother and sister. They like to play with their toys in the living room, near the fireplace. The fireplace is warm and cozy, and makes nice sounds.
+
+One day, Tim and Liz find a new toy in a box. It is a train with many cars and tracks. They are very enthusiastic and want to play with it. But they have a problem. Tim wants to make a long train and go around the fireplace. Liz wants to make a short train and go under the sofa. They cannot agree on how to play with the toy.
+
+They start to quarrel and pull the toy. They say:
+
+"Give me the train, it is mine!" Tim says.
+
+"No, it is mine, give it to me!" Liz says.
+
+They quarrel louder and louder, and make the toy break. The train falls apart and the tracks scatter. They are both sad and angry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the living room. She sees the broken toy and the quarreling children. She is not happy. She says:
+
+"Tim and Liz, what have you done? You broke the new toy! Why did you quarrel so much? You should share and play nicely!"
+
+Tim and Liz feel sorry and ashamed. They say:
+
+"We are sorry, Mom. We both wanted to play with the toy. We did not mean to break it."
+
+Mom hugs them and says:
+
+"I know you are sorry, but you have to learn to cooperate and respect each other. The toy is for both of you, not for one of you. You can play with it in different ways, but you have to take turns and listen to each other. Do you understand?"
+
+Tim and Liz nod and say:
+
+"Yes, Mom. We understand. We will try to do better."
+
+Mom smiles and says:
+
+"Good. Now, let's see if we can fix the toy and play with it together. And then, we can have some cookies and milk by the fireplace. How does that sound?"
+
+Tim and Liz smile and say:
+
+"That sounds great, Mom. Thank you. We love you."
+
+They hug Mom and help her fix the toy. They play with it together, and have fun. They do not quarrel anymore. They enjoy the cookies and milk by the fireplace, and feel warm and happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and make funny noises. Sometimes they share, and sometimes they fight. One day, they are playing with their blocks and cars in the living room.
+
+"Look, I made a big tower!" Anna says, showing Ben her blocks.
+
+"That's not a tower, that's a mess!" Ben says, and pushes Anna's blocks down.
+
+"Hey, that's not nice!" Anna says, and grabs Ben's car.
+
+"Give it back, that's mine!" Ben says, and pulls Anna's hair.
+
+"Ow, that hurts!" Anna says, and cries.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to the living room. She sees the blocks and the car on the floor, and the twins crying.
+
+"What's going on here?" Mom asks.
+
+"Ben broke my tower and I took his car and he pulled my hair!" Anna says.
+
+"Anna took my car and I pushed her blocks and she grabbed my hair!" Ben says.
+
+Mom sighs and picks up the twins. She hugs them and says, "You two need to learn to be flexible. That means you can change your mind and try new things. Sometimes you can play with your own toys, and sometimes you can trade and share. That way, you can have more fun and be nice to each other. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod and say, "Yes, Mom."
+
+"Good. Now, let's remove these toys and put them away. It's time for meal. You can have some soup and bread and cheese. How does that sound?"
+
+Anna and Ben smile and say, "Yummy!"
+
+They help Mom remove the toys and put them in the box. Then they go to the kitchen and sit on their chairs. They eat their meal and talk about their day. They are flexible and happy.
+Poppy was a long and soft cat. She liked to sleep on the bed with her friend Lily. Lily was a little girl who loved Poppy very much. Every night, Lily would whisper to Poppy, "You are my best friend. I am happy when you are with me."
+
+One day, Lily and Poppy went to the park with Lily's mom. They saw many flowers and birds and swings. Lily wanted to play on the swings, but Poppy was scared. She did not like the noise and the people. She hid under a bench and waited for Lily.
+
+Lily had fun on the swings, but she missed Poppy. She looked for her under the bench, but she could not see her. She called her name, but she did not hear her. She felt sad and worried. She asked her mom, "Where is Poppy? I can't find her."
+
+Her mom said, "Don't worry, Lily. Maybe she is hiding somewhere. Let's look for her together." They walked around the park and looked for Poppy. They asked some people and some dogs, but no one had seen her.
+
+Then, Lily heard a faint sound. It was a soft and familiar meow. She followed the sound and found Poppy under a big tree. Poppy was curled up in a pile of leaves. She looked scared and cold. Lily ran to her and hugged her. She said, "Poppy, I found you! I was so scared. Are you okay?"
+
+Poppy licked Lily's face and purred. She said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I was scared too. I ran away from the swings and got lost. I'm glad you found me. I love you."
+
+Lily and Poppy cuddled under the tree. Lily's mom came and smiled. She said, "I'm happy you found each other. You are both very brave. Let's go home and have some warm milk and cookies."
+
+Lily and Poppy nodded and followed her mom. They held each other and whispered, "You are my best friend. I am happy when you are with me."
+Anna and Ben like to play with blocks. They make different things with the blocks, like houses, cars, and animals. Sometimes they share the blocks, and sometimes they want their own blocks.
+
+One day, Anna has an idea. She wants to make a pattern with the blocks. She takes some red blocks and some blue blocks, and puts them in a line. She makes the line go red, blue, red, blue, red, blue. She thinks it looks pretty.
+
+"Look, Ben, I made a pattern!" she says.
+
+Ben looks at Anna's pattern. He likes it too. He wants to make his own pattern. He takes some yellow blocks and some green blocks, and puts them next to Anna's line. He makes his line go yellow, green, yellow, green, yellow, green. He thinks it looks nice.
+
+"Look, Anna, I made a pattern too!" he says.
+
+Anna looks at Ben's pattern. She does not like it. She thinks it does not match her pattern. She thinks Ben is messing up her pattern. She gets upset.
+
+"Ben, you are ruining my pattern!" she says. "Your blocks are not the same as my blocks. Go away!"
+
+Ben is confused. He does not understand why Anna is angry. He thinks his pattern is good. He thinks Anna is being mean. He gets upset too.
+
+"Anna, you are being mean!" he says. "My blocks are good too. You go away!"
+
+They start to argue. They start to pull the blocks from each other. They start to cry.
+
+Mom hears them crying. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the blocks and the patterns. She sees Anna and Ben are upset.
+
+"What is going on here?" she asks.
+
+Anna and Ben tell Mom what happened. They both say the other one is wrong. They both say they want their own pattern.
+
+Mom listens to them. She hugs them. She tries to calm them down.
+
+"Anna and Ben, I understand you both like to make patterns. Patterns are fun and creative. But you don't have to make the same pattern. You can make different patterns. Different patterns can be beautiful too. You can also make patterns together. You can mix the blocks and make new patterns. You can share and learn from each other. You can be kind and respectful to each other. That is what friends do."
+
+Anna and Ben think about what Mom says. They look at the blocks and the patterns. They see that Mom is right. They see that different patterns can be beautiful too. They see that they can make patterns together. They see that they can be kind and respectful to each other.
+
+They say sorry to each other. They hug each other. They smile.
+
+"Mom, you are right. We can make different patterns. We can make patterns together. We can be kind and respectful to each other. We are sorry for being mean. We are friends."
+
+Mom smiles too. She is happy to see them get along. She helps them make new patterns with the blocks. They have fun. They are happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys on the floor. They had cars, dolls, blocks and books. They liked to make up stories and pretend they were in different places.
+
+"Let's go to the zoo!" Lily said. She picked up a toy elephant and made a loud noise. "Look, this is Ellie the elephant. She is big and gray and has a long nose."
+
+"OK, I want to be the zookeeper," Ben said. He put on a hat and a badge. "Hello, Ellie. Do you want some peanuts?" He pretended to feed the elephant.
+
+They played for a while, moving the toys around and making animal sounds. They had fun and laughed a lot.
+
+Then, Mom came into the room. She had a tray with two cups and two plates. She smiled and said, "Time for a snack, kids. I made you some cookies and milk. Come and sit at the table."
+
+Ben and Lily ran to the table. They liked cookies and milk. They thanked Mom and sat on their chairs. The table was ordinary. It was brown and square and had four legs. But Ben and Lily did not mind. They did not care about the table. They cared about the cookies and milk.
+
+They ate their snack and talked to Mom. They told her about their zoo game and the toys they used. Mom listened and nodded. She was happy to see them play and use their imagination.
+
+The end.
+Lily was playing with her dolls in her room. She liked to make them talk and hug each other. She pretended they were her friends and they had fun together.
+
+Soon, she heard her mom call her from the kitchen. "Lily, dinner is ready! Come and wash your hands!"
+
+Lily put her dolls on her bed and ran to the kitchen. She saw her mom and dad sitting at the table. They had plates of food in front of them. Lily smelled something yummy. She climbed on her chair and looked at her plate.
+
+She saw a big piece of meat, some green things, and some white things. She did not know what they were. She was confused.
+
+"Mom, what is this?" she asked, pointing at her plate.
+
+"That's chicken, broccoli, and rice, honey. They are good for you. Try some, you'll like it," her mom said, smiling.
+
+Lily looked at the chicken. It looked like the bird she saw in the park. She looked at the broccoli. It looked like a tiny tree. She looked at the rice. It looked like snow. She did not want to eat them. She shook her head.
+
+"No, thank you. I don't like them. Can I have something else?" she said, making a face.
+
+Her dad frowned. He did not like it when Lily was picky. He wanted her to eat healthy food.
+
+"Lily, you have to eat what's on your plate. You can't have something else. You need to grow strong and big. Don't be silly," he said, sternly.
+
+Lily felt sad. She did not want to make her dad angry. But she did not want to eat the food either. She felt like crying.
+
+She looked at her mom. Her mom looked at her dad. Then, her mom looked at her again. She smiled softly.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. I know you are not used to these foods. They are new for you. But they are not bad. They are tasty and good. Why don't you try a little bit? Just one bite. Maybe you'll change your mind. And if you don't, that's okay too. We can have something else later. How about that?" her mom said, gently.
+
+Lily felt better. Her mom was nice. She understood her. She nodded.
+
+"Okay, mom. I'll try a little bit. Just one bite," she said, bravely.
+
+She picked up her fork and stabbed a piece of chicken. She put it in her mouth and chewed. It was not bad. It was soft and juicy. She swallowed.
+
+She tried a piece of broccoli. It was not bad either. It was crunchy and green. She swallowed.
+
+She tried a spoonful of rice. It was not bad at all. It was fluffy and white. She swallowed.
+
+She looked at her plate. She had eaten some of everything. She felt proud. She looked at her mom and dad. They looked happy. They smiled and clapped.
+
+"Good job, Lily! You did it! You ate some of everything! You are a big girl! We are so proud of you!" they said, cheering.
+
+Lily smiled back. She felt happy. She liked making her mom and dad proud. She liked trying new things. She liked the food.
+
+She reached out and hugged her mom and dad. They hugged her back. They were a happy family. They had a good dinner.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have a big box of toy cars and trucks. They make roads and bridges with blocks and books. They make sounds like beep and vroom.
+
+One day, they want to play outside. They ask their mom if they can go to the park. Their mom says yes, but they have to wait for their dad. Their dad is coming home from work. He is driving a big car.
+
+They wait and wait. They look out the window. They see many cars on the road. The cars are not moving. They are stuck. They hear horns and sirens. They see people waving their arms. They are angry.
+
+"What is happening, mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"There is a lot of traffic, Tom. Traffic means too many cars on the road. Sometimes traffic makes people angry. They have to wait a long time to get where they want to go. Your dad is in the traffic. He is trying to come home as fast as he can," mom explains.
+
+"Can we help dad?" Anna asks.
+
+"How can we help dad, Anna?" mom asks.
+
+"We can call dad and say we love him. We can say we are waiting for him. We can say we want to play with him. Maybe that will make him happy. Maybe that will make the traffic go away," Anna says.
+
+"That is a very nice idea, Anna. Let's call dad and tell him that," mom says.
+
+They call dad on the phone. They say they love him. They say they are waiting for him. They say they want to play with him. Dad says he loves them too. He says he is almost home. He says he wants to play with them too. He says the traffic is moving a little bit. He says he is not angry anymore. He says he is happy to hear their voices.
+
+Tom and Anna smile. They hug mom. They go back to their toys. They play with cars and trucks. They make roads and bridges. They make sounds like beep and vroom. They wait for dad to come home. They are happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and hide behind the trees. They saw a big red ball near the fence. They wanted to play with it.
+
+"Let's get the ball!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Ben said.
+
+They ran to the fence. But there was a problem. The fence had sharp wires on top. They could hurt them if they touched them.
+
+"Be careful!" Ben said. "The wires can cut you!"
+
+He tried to warn Lily, but she did not hear him. She reached for the ball. She touched the wire. She felt a pain in her hand. She cried out loud.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Lily said.
+
+Ben heard her cry. He ran to her. He saw blood on her hand. He felt fearful. He did not know what to do.
+
+"Lily, are you OK?" Ben said.
+
+He hugged her. He tried to make her feel better.
+
+"No, I'm not OK!" Lily said. "It hurts! It hurts!"
+
+She showed him her hand. He saw a cut on her finger. He felt sorry for her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily!" Ben said. "I tried to warn you!"
+
+He looked around. He saw their mom coming. He waved to her. He hoped she could help them.
+
+"Mom! Mom! Help!" Ben said.
+
+Their mom saw them. She saw the ball, the fence, the wire, the blood, the cut. She understood what happened. She ran to them. She took Lily's hand. She wrapped it with a cloth. She kissed her.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily!" Mom said. "It's OK. I'm here. I'll take you to the doctor. He'll fix your cut."
+
+She picked up Lily. She carried her to the car. She told Ben to come with them.
+
+"Thank you, Mom!" Lily said.
+
+She felt a little better. She still felt pain, but she also felt love.
+
+"Thank you, Ben!" Lily said.
+
+She smiled at him. She knew he was a good brother.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily!" Ben said.
+
+He smiled back. He was glad she was OK. He learned a lesson. He would never touch the wires again. He would always listen to warnings.
+One day, a monkey and a bird were playing in the jungle. They liked to swing on the vines and sing to each other. They were very happy and had many friends.
+
+But one day, the monkey forgot something. He forgot to tell the bird where he was going. He saw a big banana tree and wanted to eat some bananas. He jumped from vine to vine and reached the tree. He ate many bananas and felt full.
+
+The bird waited for the monkey to come back. She looked for him on the vines and in the trees. She called his name, but he did not answer. She felt sad and lonely. She wondered where he was.
+
+The monkey heard the bird's voice. He remembered that he forgot to tell her where he was. He felt sorry and wanted to see her. He left the banana tree and looked for her. He saw her on a distant vine, looking for him. He called her name and waved his hand.
+
+The bird saw the monkey and felt happy. She flew to him and hugged him. She asked him where he was. He told her that he was eating bananas and that he forgot to tell her. He said he was sorry and that he loved her. She said she was sorry too and that she loved him. They kissed and made up.
+
+They decided to share the bananas and play together. They swung on the vines and sang to each other. They were very happy and had many friends. They never forgot to tell each other where they were going again.
+Sara was a big girl. She had a new baby brother, Ben. Ben slept in a crib in Mama and Papa's room. Sara slept in a bed in her own room.
+
+One night, Sara heard Ben cry. She got out of bed and went to see him. She saw Mama and Papa sleeping. She saw Ben in his crib. He was awake and sad.
+
+Sara wanted to help. She thought of her teddy bear. She loved her teddy bear. It was soft and light. It made her happy. She ran to her room and got her teddy bear. She brought it to Ben.
+
+She whispered, "Here, Ben. This is my teddy bear. You can hug it. It will make you feel better."
+
+She put the teddy bear in the crib with Ben. Ben looked at the teddy bear. He reached for it. He smiled. He hugged it. He stopped crying.
+
+Sara smiled too. She was a good sister. She kissed Ben and said, "Good night, Ben. I love you."
+
+She went back to her bed. She felt proud and sleepy. She closed her eyes and dreamed of Ben and the teddy bear.
+Tom and Mia are having lunch with Mom. Mom gives them a bowl of rice and some chicken. Tom likes rice, but he does not like chicken. He tries to remove the chicken from his bowl and hide it under his napkin.
+
+"Tom, why are you not eating your chicken?" Mom asks.
+
+"I don't like chicken, Mom. It is yucky," Tom says.
+
+"But chicken is good for you, Tom. It makes you strong and healthy," Mom says.
+
+"I don't want to be strong and healthy. I want to be happy and full," Tom says.
+
+Mia looks at Tom and shakes her head. She likes chicken and rice. She thinks they are yummy. She eats her bowl quickly and asks for more.
+
+"Mia, you are a good eater. You can have more rice and chicken," Mom says.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. I love rice and chicken. They are yellow and white and tasty," Mia says.
+
+Tom feels sad. He does not want to make Mom angry. He does not want to waste food. He does not want to be different from Mia. He looks at his bowl and sees a lot of chicken and a little bit of rice.
+
+"Mom, can I have more rice, please?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, Tom. But you have to eat some chicken too. You can't just remove it and hide it. That is not nice," Mom says.
+
+"OK, Mom. I will try some chicken. Maybe it is not so yucky," Tom says.
+
+He picks up a small piece of chicken and puts it in his mouth. He chews it slowly and swallows it. He makes a face.
+
+"How is it, Tom?" Mom asks.
+
+"It is OK, Mom. Not so yucky. But I still like rice more," Tom says.
+
+Mom smiles and gives him more rice. She is proud of Tom for trying something new. She hopes he will learn to like chicken more. She hugs him and Mia and says,
+
+"I love you, Tom and Mia. You are my good children. You make me happy."
+Lily loved to visit her aunt. Her aunt had a big house with many toys and books. Lily liked to play with the dolls and the cars and the blocks. She also liked to read the stories with her aunt.
+
+One day, Lily found a strange bottle in her aunt's closet. It had a label that said "Shrink". Lily was curious. She opened the bottle and smelled it. It smelled like flowers. She wondered what it would do. She sprayed some on her hand. Nothing happened. She sprayed some more on her arm. Still nothing. She sprayed some on her head. Then she felt funny.
+
+Lily looked around. Everything was huge. The closet was like a cave. The toys were like mountains. The books were like walls. She had shrunk. She was very small. She was scared. She wanted her aunt.
+
+She heard her aunt calling her name. She tried to answer, but her voice was too tiny. She saw her aunt's feet coming closer. She hoped her aunt would see her. She ran towards her aunt's feet. She waved her arms. She shouted as loud as she could.
+
+Her aunt looked down. She saw Lily. She was shocked. She picked her up gently. She hugged her. She said, "Lily, what happened? You are so small. How did you shrink?" She saw the bottle in the closet. She understood. She said, "Oh, Lily, this is a magic bottle. It can make things shrink or grow. You sprayed too much. Don't worry. I can fix it. I have the antidote." She sprayed some of the antidote on Lily. Lily felt funny again.
+
+Lily looked around. Everything was normal. The closet was small. The toys were small. The books were small. She had grown. She was big again. She was happy. She hugged her aunt. She said, "Thank you, aunt. I'm sorry. I was curious. I won't touch the bottle again." Her aunt smiled. She said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm glad you are safe. I love you. You are very brave. Now, let's go and have some cookies. They are warm and yummy." Lily nodded. She followed her aunt. She learned a lesson. She was careful with magic.
+Lily and Tom were twins who lived in a big house with their mom and dad. They were very wealthy and had many toys and clothes. But they were not happy or kind. They liked to behave badly and make trouble for everyone. They did not listen to their mom and dad or their teachers or their friends.
+
+One day, they decided to sneak out of their house and go to the road. They wanted to play with the cars and trucks that went by. They thought it would be fun to throw rocks and sticks at them and make them stop or crash. They did not care if they hurt anyone or broke anything.
+
+They ran to the road and hid behind a bush. They waited for a big truck to come. When they saw one, they threw a big rock at it. The rock hit the truck's window and made it shatter. The driver was scared and angry. He could not see well and he lost control of the truck. He swerved and hit another car that was coming from the other side. The car and the truck made a loud noise and a big fire. Lily and Tom saw the fire and the smoke and the people screaming. They were terrified and sorry. They wanted to run away and hide.
+
+But it was too late. The fire and the smoke were too big and too fast. They reached the bush where Lily and Tom were hiding. The fire burned them and the smoke choked them. They could not breathe or move. They wished they had behaved well and stayed at home. But they could not change what they had done. They died in the fire.
+Sara and Max are friends who like to play in the garden. Sara has a shiny red bike that she loves to polish every day. Max has a green bike that is old and dirty. He is envious of Sara's bike and wants to have it.
+
+One day, Sara and Max are in the garden, picking tomatoes for their lunch. Sara says, "Look at these tomatoes, they are so big and juicy. I can't wait to eat them." Max says, "Yes, they are nice. But not as nice as your bike. Can I ride your bike, please?" Sara says, "No, you can't. It's my bike and I polish it every day. You have your own bike, why don't you polish it too?"
+
+Max is angry and sad. He thinks Sara is mean and selfish. He decides to take her bike when she is not looking. He waits until Sara goes inside the house to wash the tomatoes. Then he runs to her bike and tries to ride it. But he does not know how to use the brakes. He goes too fast and loses control. He crashes into a fence and falls off the bike. He hurts his knee and his arm. He also breaks the bike. The wheel is bent and the chain is loose.
+
+Sara hears the noise and comes outside. She sees Max on the ground and her bike broken. She is shocked and angry. She says, "What did you do to my bike? You broke it! You are a bad friend! You can't play with me anymore!" Max says, "I'm sorry, Sara. I just wanted to ride your bike. I was envious of you. Please forgive me." Sara says, "No, I can't forgive you. You ruined my bike and my tomatoes. Go away and don't come back!"
+
+Sara and Max are not friends anymore. They are both unhappy and lonely. They wish they had been nicer to each other. But it is too late. The end.
+Sara liked to eat cereal for breakfast. She liked the crunchy sound and the sweet taste. She had a modest bowl every morning with some milk. She did not like to waste food.
+
+One day, her brother Tom came to the kitchen. He was feeling naughty. He saw Sara's bowl of cereal and had an idea. He grabbed the bowl and ran to the living room. He threw the bowl on the floor and stomped on the cereal. He laughed and said, "I destroy your cereal!"
+
+Sara was very sad and angry. She ran after Tom and shouted, "You are mean! You are bad! You destroy my cereal!" She tried to hit him, but he was too fast. He ran away and hid behind the couch.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the mess and the crying Sara. She asked, "What happened here?" Sara told her what Tom did. Mom was very upset. She said, "Tom, come here right now! You need to say sorry to Sara and help clean up this mess. You do not destroy other people's food. That is rude and wasteful."
+
+Tom came out from behind the couch. He looked ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, Sara. I was just playing. I didn't mean to destroy your cereal." He helped Sara pick up the pieces and wipe the floor. Sara forgave him and hugged him. Mom smiled and said, "That's better. Now, let's go make some more cereal for Sara. And Tom, you can have a modest bowl too, if you promise to be nice."
+Sam and Lily are friends. They like to play at the beach. They make sand castles and look for shells. One day, they see a big boat on the water. The boat has a net. The net catches many fish and shrimp.
+
+Sam and Lily are curious. They run to the boat. They see a man on the boat. The man is fat and has a big hat. He smiles at Sam and Lily. He says, "Hello, little ones. Do you want to see what I caught?"
+
+Sam and Lily nod. They climb on the boat. The man shows them the fish and shrimp. They are colorful and shiny. Sam and Lily touch them gently. They say, "Wow, they are so pretty!"
+
+The man laughs. He says, "They are also tasty. Do you want to try some?" He offers them a shrimp. He peels the shell and dips it in sauce. He says, "This is how you eat it. It is yummy."
+
+Sam and Lily are unsure. They have never eaten shrimp before. They look at the shrimp. It is pink and small. They smell the sauce. It is spicy and sour. They wonder if they will like it.
+
+Sam is brave. He takes the shrimp from the man. He bites it. He makes a face. He says, "It is not yummy. It is yucky. It is too spicy and sour. I don't like it."
+
+Lily is polite. She takes the shrimp from the man. She bites it. She smiles. She says, "It is yummy. It is not yucky. It is spicy and sour. I like it."
+
+The man is surprised. He says, "You have different tastes. That is okay. You can have more or not. It is up to you."
+
+Sam and Lily thank the man. They say, "Thank you for the shrimp. Thank you for showing us the fish. You are nice."
+
+The man says, "You are welcome. You are nice too. You can come back anytime. I will have more fish and shrimp for you."
+
+Sam and Lily wave goodbye. They jump off the boat. They run back to the beach. They play some more. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was a girl who liked to play with water. She had a big tub of water in her backyard, and she would splash and pour and make bubbles with it. She had a lot of fun with water, but she did not like to be wet. She always wanted to be dry.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, it's time to go inside. You need to have a bath and get ready for bed."
+
+Lily did not want to go inside. She wanted to play with water more. She said, "No, mom, I don't want a bath. I want to be dry."
+
+Mom said, "But Lily, you are wet from playing with water. You need to have a bath to be clean and dry. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lily did not listen. She ran away from mom and hid behind the tub of water. She thought she was very funny and clever. She said, "Ha ha, mom, you can't find me. I am dry here."
+
+Mom looked for Lily and saw her behind the tub of water. She smiled and said, "Lily, I can see you. You are not dry, you are wet. Look, the water is dripping from your hair and your clothes. You are not funny, you are silly."
+
+Lily looked at herself and saw that mom was right. She was wet, not dry. She felt silly and cold. She said, "Oh, mom, I am sorry. I am wet, not dry. I am silly, not funny. Can I have a bath now?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, Lily, you can have a bath now. Come on, let's go inside. I will help you get clean and dry and warm. Then we can read a funny story before bed."
+
+Lily said, "OK, mom, thank you. I love you."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, Lily."
+Tom and Mia are playing in the kitchen. They see a big pot on the stove. They are curious. They want to see what is inside.
+
+"Let's look," Tom says. He climbs on a chair and reaches for the pot.
+
+"No, Tom, don't!" Mia says. She knows the pot is hot. She tries to pull Tom back.
+
+But Tom is too fast. He grabs the pot handle and lifts it. Steam comes out. Tom feels a sharp pain in his hand. He drops the pot. The pot falls on the floor. The soup inside spills everywhere. It is a spicy soup. It smells like peppers.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cries. He holds his hand. It is red and sore. He feels like it is on fire. He runs to the sink and puts his hand under the water.
+
+Mia is scared. She sees the mess. She sees the soup on the floor. She sees the tape on the counter. She has an idea. She grabs the tape and runs to Tom.
+
+"Tom, I'm sorry. I have tape. I can help you," she says. She tears off a piece of tape and sticks it on Tom's hand.
+
+"Ow, Mia, that hurts more!" Tom says. He tries to pull off the tape. But the tape is sticky. It does not come off easily. It pulls on his skin.
+
+"Stop, Tom, the tape will make it better," Mia says. She thinks the tape is like a band-aid. She does not know that tape is not good for burns.
+
+"No, Mia, the tape is bad. It makes it worse. Take it off, take it off!" Tom says. He is angry and sad. He does not want to play with Mia anymore.
+
+They hear a voice. It is their mom. She comes into the kitchen. She sees the pot, the soup, the tape, and the children. She is shocked and worried.
+
+"What happened here?" she asks. She sees Tom's hand. She sees the tape. She knows what to do. She takes off the tape gently. She puts some cream and a real band-aid on Tom's hand. She hugs him and kisses him. She tells him he will be okay.
+
+She looks at Mia. She sees that Mia was trying to help. She hugs her and kisses her too. She tells her she is a good sister. But she also tells her that tape is not for burns. She tells her that soup is hot and spicy. She tells her that they should not play with the stove.
+
+She cleans up the mess. She makes them some sandwiches. She gives them some juice. She tells them to be careful and listen to her. She tells them she loves them.
+
+Tom and Mia say they are sorry. They say they love her too. They eat their sandwiches. They drink their juice. They feel better. They hug each other. They say they are sorry to each other too. They decide to play with their toys instead. They are happy again.
+Tom and Mia like to play in the park. They run, jump, slide and swing. They have fun with their friends. Sometimes they see birds and squirrels. They like to watch them.
+
+One day, they see a big balloon in the sky. It is red and yellow and blue. It is very pretty. They want to see it closer. They ask their mom if they can go to the balloon.
+
+"Can we go to the balloon, mom?" Tom says.
+
+"Please, mom, can we?" Mia says.
+
+Mom smiles and nods. She takes their hands and walks to the balloon. The balloon is on the ground. There is a man and a basket. The man says hello.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you want to ride the balloon?" the man says.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Tom and Mia say.
+
+Mom says it is okay. The man helps them get in the basket. He gives them hats and gloves. He says it is cold up there. He turns on a fire. The fire makes the balloon rise. Tom and Mia feel excited.
+
+The balloon rises higher and higher. They see the park, the trees, the houses, the cars. They see the sun and the clouds. They see other balloons. They wave to them. The sky is calm and clear. They feel happy.
+
+The balloon flies for a long time. Then the man says it is time to go down. He turns off the fire. The balloon falls slowly. Tom and Mia feel a little scared.
+
+"Don't worry, kids. It is safe. We will land soon." the man says.
+
+The balloon falls closer and closer to the ground. They see a field with flowers and cows. They hear a dog bark. The balloon touches the ground. The man says they did well. He gives them stickers and candy. He says goodbye.
+
+Mom hugs them and says they are brave. They thank the man and walk back to the park. They tell their friends about the balloon. They say it was fun and amazing. They say they want to do it again.
+Ben and Mia love to swim in the pool. They are lively and happy. They splash and kick and laugh.
+
+"Let's race!" Ben says to Mia. "Who can swim to the other side first?"
+
+"Me!" Mia says. "I am fast and strong!"
+
+They get ready at the edge of the pool. They count to three and jump in. They swim as fast as they can. They move their arms and legs. They breathe and look ahead.
+
+Ben is ahead of Mia. He is almost at the other side. He smiles and thinks he will win. But Mia does not give up. She swims harder and faster. She catches up with Ben. She passes him and touches the wall.
+
+"I win!" Mia says. "I am faster and stronger!"
+
+Ben is surprised and sad. He wanted to win. He swims to the wall and gets out of the pool. He frowns and pouts.
+
+"Good race!" Mia says. She hugs Ben and smiles. "You are fast and strong too. But I am faster and stronger today. Maybe you will be faster and stronger tomorrow. Do you want to race again?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He looks at Mia. She is lively and happy. He likes to swim with her. He decides to be a good sport.
+
+"OK," he says. "Let's race again. But this time, I will win!"

+They laugh and get ready to race again. They are lively and happy. They splash and kick and laugh.
+Lily liked to watch the birds in the sky. They had wings and could fly high and fast. She wished she could fly too. She had a toy bird that she named Blue. Blue was soft and had fancy feathers. Lily hugged Blue and pretended they were flying together.
+
+One day, Lily took Blue to the park. She saw a big dog that was barking and running. The dog saw Blue and wanted to play. He ran towards Lily and jumped on her. Lily was scared and dropped Blue. The dog grabbed Blue in his mouth and shook him. Lily cried and shouted, "No! Give me back my bird!"
+
+A man saw what was happening and ran to help. He was the dog's owner. He said, "Bad dog! Drop it!" He took Blue from the dog and gave him to Lily. He said, "I'm sorry, little girl. Are you okay? Is your bird okay?" Lily looked at Blue. He was dirty and his fancy feathers were torn. She was sad and angry. She said, "Your dog hurt my bird! He is not okay!"
+
+The man said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to let him loose. He is usually friendly, but he likes to chase things that fly. He didn't know your bird was a toy. He thought it was a real bird. Can I do something to make it better?" Lily thought for a moment. She said, "You can buy me a new bird. A real bird. One that can fly and sing and be my friend."
+
+The man said, "Okay, I will do that. Come with me to the pet store. I will buy you a new bird. And I will teach my dog to be nice to birds. He needs to learn to protect them, not hurt them." Lily nodded and took his hand. She still loved Blue, but she was excited to get a new bird. She hoped it would be as fancy as Blue. She said, "Thank you, mister. You are kind."
+Anna likes to ride her bike. She has a red bike with two big wheels and a bell. She can pedal fast and ring the bell loud. She likes to wear her pink helmet and her yellow scarf when she rides.
+
+Ben is Anna's brother. He has a blue bike with two small wheels and a horn. He can pedal slow and honk the horn soft. He likes to wear his green hat and his orange mittens when he rides.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben go to the park with their bikes. They see other kids with bikes too. Some have bikes with flowers, some have bikes with stars, some have bikes with lights. Anna and Ben think they are pretty.
+
+But then they see a bike with a big bow. It is a purple bike with a big white bow on the handle. The bow has shiny dots and long ribbons. The bike belongs to Lily, a girl from their school. Lily pedals around the park and shows off her bike. She says it is a gift from her grandma.
+
+Anna and Ben feel envious. They wish they had a bike with a bow too. They think their bikes are boring. They stop pedaling and sit on the grass. They look sad.
+
+Lily sees them and rides over. She smiles and says hello. She asks them if they like her bike. Anna and Ben nod. They say it is very nice. Lily says thank you. She says she likes their bikes too. She says they are very colorful.
+
+She asks them if they want to try her bike. Anna and Ben are surprised. They say yes. Lily says okay. She gets off her bike and gives it to Anna. She says Anna can pedal it first. She says she will pedal Anna's bike.
+
+Anna is happy. She gets on Lily's bike and ties the ribbons around her wrists. She feels the bow on the handle. She pedals around the park and rings the bell. She thinks it is fun.

+Tom and Mia were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with a swing, a slide and a sandbox. But today they were restless. They wanted to do something new and exciting.
+
+"Let's go to the woods!" Tom said. He pointed to the trees behind their fence. "Maybe we can find some animals or treasures."
+
+Mia nodded. She liked to explore. She grabbed her backpack and put some snacks and a bottle of water inside. Tom did the same. They put on their hats and shoes and ran to the fence. They climbed over it and entered the woods.
+
+The woods were dark and quiet. Tom and Mia walked along a path, looking around. They saw some birds, some flowers and some bugs. They picked up some sticks and stones and put them in their backpacks.
+
+"Look, a cave!" Mia said. She saw a big hole in the ground, covered with vines. "Let's go inside and see what's there."
+
+Tom hesitated. He felt a little scared. He remembered that their mom had told them to stay away from caves. They could be dangerous. But he didn't want to seem like a baby. He followed Mia to the cave.
+
+They pushed the vines aside and entered the cave. It was dark and cold. They used their sticks as torches and walked deeper into the cave. They heard some noises, like water dripping and wind blowing. They also heard some growling.
+
+"Tom, do you hear that?" Mia whispered. She felt a chill on her back. She wished they had stayed in the yard.
+
+Tom heard it too. He saw two yellow eyes shining in the dark. He realized they were not alone. There was a big animal in the cave. A bear!
+
+"Run!" Tom shouted. He grabbed Mia's hand and ran back to the entrance. The bear followed them, roaring and snarling.
+
+They reached the vines and pushed them aside. They saw the sun and the trees. They saw their fence and their yard. They ran as fast as they could, hoping the bear would not catch them.
+
+They climbed over the fence and ran to their house. They slammed the door behind them and locked it. They were safe.
+
+They hugged each other and cried. They were sorry they had gone to the cave. They had learned their lesson. They would never go to the woods again. They would play in their yard, where it was safe and fun.
+Lily and Sam were friends. They liked to play in the park. They had a lot of fun. They had youth and sweet smiles.
+
+One day, a big dog came to the park. It was not nice. It barked and growled. It ran after Lily and Sam. They were scared. They tried to run away.
+
+But the dog was faster. It caught Sam. It bit him hard. Sam cried out. Lily ran to help him. But the dog bit her too. They both fell down. They had blood and pain.
+
+The dog ran away. Lily and Sam were alone. They had no help. They had no hope. They had a bad ending.
+Lily was a small girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna, who had long hair and a pink dress. Lily liked to comb Anna's hair and dress her up.
+
+One day, Lily's parent said they had to go to the store. Lily wanted to bring Anna with her, but her parent said no. "Anna might get lost or dirty at the store," her parent said. "You can play with her when we come back."
+
+Lily felt sad. She loved Anna and did not want to leave her alone. She urged her parent to let her take Anna. "Please, please, please," she said. "I will hold her tight and be careful. Anna wants to go with me."
+
+Her parent sighed. They saw how much Lily loved Anna and did not want to make her cry. They decided to let Lily take Anna, but only if she promised to listen and stay close. "Okay, Lily, you can take Anna," they said. "But you have to be a good girl and do what I say. Can you do that?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She hugged Anna and thanked her parent. She was happy to go to the store with her doll. She hoped they would see some nice things and have fun. She did not know that Anna had a surprise for her.
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. Tom has a yellow laser that makes a bright light. Mia has a polish that makes things shiny. They want to make a game with their toys.
+
+"Look, Mia, I have a laser!" Tom says, pointing his toy at the wall. "It can make a dot of light anywhere I want!"
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is cool!" Mia says, looking at the laser. "Can I try it?"
+
+"Sure, Mia, but be careful. Don't point it at your eyes or anyone else's eyes. It can hurt them." Tom says, handing the laser to Mia.
+
+Mia takes the laser and makes a dot of light on the floor. She moves it around and makes shapes with it. She likes the laser.
+
+"Look, Tom, I have a polish!" Mia says, showing her bottle of polish. "It can make things shiny and pretty. Do you want to see?"
+
+"OK, Mia, show me." Tom says, curious about the polish.
+
+Mia opens the bottle and pours some polish on a cloth. She rubs the cloth on her doll's hair. The doll's hair becomes shiny and smooth.
+
+"See, Tom, the polish makes the doll's hair shiny!" Mia says, proud of her work.
+
+"That is nice, Mia, but can you polish something else?" Tom asks, bored of the doll.
+
+"Sure, Tom, what do you want me to polish?" Mia asks, looking for something else to polish.
+
+"How about the laser?" Tom suggests, pointing at the toy.
+
+"OK, Tom, I can polish the laser." Mia agrees, taking the laser from Tom.
+
+She pours some polish on the cloth and rubs it on the laser. The laser becomes shiny and slippery.
+
+"See, Tom, the polish makes the laser shiny!" Mia says, holding the laser.
+
+But the laser is too slippery and Mia drops it. The laser falls on the floor and breaks. The light goes out.
+
+"Oh no, Mia, you broke the laser!" Tom cries, looking at the broken toy.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom, I didn't mean to break it. I just wanted to make it shiny." Mia says, feeling sad.
+
+They look at each other and feel bad. They don't know what to do.
+
+"Maybe we can fix it." Tom says, trying to be hopeful.
+
+"Maybe we can." Mia says, nodding.
+
+They pick up the pieces of the laser and try to put them back together. They hope the laser will work again. They hope they can still play with it. They hope they can still be friends.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One morning, they woke up early and saw the sunrise. The sky was pink and orange and yellow. It was very pretty.
+
+"Let's go to the park and play on the slide!" Ben said.
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. The grass is wet and we might slip." Lily said.
+
+They put on their shoes and coats and ran to the park. They saw the slide and climbed up the ladder. Ben went first and slid down fast. He laughed and said, "This is fun!"
+
+Lily followed him and slid down too. But when she reached the bottom, she slipped on the wet grass and fell. She hurt her knee and started to cry.
+
+"Are you OK, Lily?" Ben asked. He ran to her and helped her up.
+

+
+He hugged her and kissed her cheek. They walked back home and told their mom what happened. She cleaned Lily's wound and put a band-aid on it. She praised Ben for being a good brother and Lily for being brave. She said, "You both learned a lesson today. Sometimes, things can be fun, but also dangerous. You have to be careful and watch out for each other. That's what family is for."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and said, "We love you, mom."
+
+They hugged their mom and smiled. They were happy and grateful. They learned to be careful and kind.

+
+They took out the gray stuff and started to make shapes with it. They made balls, snakes, hats, and cars. They had a lot of fun with the gray stuff. But then, they started to argue. Lily wanted to make a cake, and Tom wanted to make a rocket. They both wanted the same piece of gray stuff.
+
+They began to pull and tug on the gray stuff. They did not want to share. They did not want to discuss. They only wanted to have their own way. They pulled harder and harder, until the gray stuff ripped apart. They both fell down on the floor, and the gray stuff flew everywhere.
+
+They looked around and saw that the gray stuff was not fun at all. It was dirty and sticky and smelly. It stained their clothes and their skin and their hair. It made them itch and sneeze and cough. They realized that the gray stuff was not a toy, but a trash.

The gray stuff was everywhere, and it was hard to remove. They had made a big mess, and they had no one to help them. They had a very bad day.

+Lena and Max are playing with their toy trucks in the garden. They like to load the trucks with sand, leaves and rocks and drive them around. Lena has a big red truck and Max has a small blue truck.
+
+"Look, I can load more sand than you!" Lena says to Max. She shovels sand into her truck with a plastic spoon. "My truck is stronger and faster!"
+
+"No, my truck is better!" Max says. He tries to load more sand into his truck, but it is too much. His truck tips over and the sand spills out. "Oh no, my truck is broken!"
+
+Lena laughs and drives her truck away. Max is sad and angry. He picks up his truck and throws it at Lena's truck. The trucks crash and make a loud noise. Lena and Max both cry.
+
+Mama hears the noise and comes to the garden. She sees the trucks and the sand and the tears. She is not happy.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mama asks. "Why did you throw your truck, Max? And why did you laugh, Lena? You know the trucks are fragile. You have to be gentle and share."
+
+"I'm sorry, Mama," Max says. "I wanted to load more sand, but my truck fell and Lena laughed at me."
+
+"I'm sorry, Mama," Lena says. "I wanted to show Max my truck, but he threw his truck at me and it hurt."

+Mama hugs them and wipes their tears. She takes the trucks and cleans them with a cloth. She puts some lotion on Lena's and Max's arms where the trucks scratched them. The lotion smells nice and makes them feel better.
+
+"Here, you can have your trucks back," Mama says. "But you have to promise me to play nicely and say sorry to each other."
+
+Lena and Max nod and hug each other. They say sorry and thank Mama. They take their trucks and play together again. They load the trucks with sand, leaves and rocks, but not too much. They drive them around and have fun. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their paint and brushes. They liked to make pictures of things they saw or imagined. Tom painted a big truck with a driver and a horn. Lily painted a garden with flowers and butterflies.
+
+"Look at my truck!" Tom said. "It is red and loud and strong. The driver can go anywhere he wants."
+
+"Look at my garden!" Lily said. "It is pretty and colorful and peaceful. The flowers smell nice and the butterflies fly around."
+
+They showed each other their paintings and smiled. They were proud of their work.
+
+But then they heard a growl. It was not a truck or a butterfly. It was their stomachs. They were hungry.
+
+"Let's go and ask Mom for a snack," Tom said.
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But we have to clean up first. We don't want to make a mess."
+
+They put away their paint and brushes and washed their hands. Then they ran to the kitchen, where Mom was making sandwiches.
+
+"Mom, can we have some food?" they asked.
+
+"Of course, my sweeties," Mom said. "You must be hungry after painting so well. Here, have some sandwiches and milk. And show me your paintings. I want to see what you made."
+Sam loved pizza. He loved the cheese, the sauce, the crust, and the toppings. He always wanted more pizza, even when he was full. His mom and dad told him to share and be happy with what he had, but he did not listen.
+
+One day, Sam saw a big pizza on the table. It was for his family and his friends who were coming over. Sam wanted to eat it all by himself. He waited until no one was looking, and then he grabbed the pizza and ran to his room. He locked the door and started to eat.
+
+But as he ate, he noticed something strange. The pizza was getting smaller and smaller. He looked at his hands and saw that they were getting smaller too. He felt his body shrinking and his clothes falling off. He was scared and tried to call for help, but his voice was too tiny.
+
+He realized that the pizza was magic, and it made him vanish if he was greedy. He wished he had shared and been happy with what he had, but it was too late. He ate the last bite of pizza, and then he was gone. No one ever saw him again.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be greedy, or you might lose everything.
+One day, Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a smooth, shiny ball that bounced very high. They liked to throw the ball to each other and catch it.
+
+But while they were playing, a thief came into the house. He was very sneaky and quiet. He saw the smooth, shiny ball and wanted to take it. He waited until Lily and Ben were not looking, and then he grabbed the ball and ran away.
+
+Lily and Ben heard the thief's footsteps and turned around. They saw him running out the door with their ball. They were very angry and sad. They shouted, "Stop! That's our ball! Give it back!"
+
+The thief did not stop. He ran faster and faster. But he did not see a big rock on the ground. He tripped over the rock and fell down. The ball flew out of his hand and bounced back to Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the ball and picked it up. They were very happy and hugged the ball. They said, "We got our ball back! We love our ball!"
+
+The thief got up and ran away. He was very scared and sorry. He said, "I should not have touched their ball. That was wrong. I will never do that again."
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. One day, their mom brings home a new pet. It is a parrot. The parrot is colorful and can talk.
+
+"Hello, hello!" the parrot says. "I am Polly. I am a good bird."
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They want to play with Polly. They take turns to hold her and feed her. But Polly is selfish. She does not like to share. She only wants to stay with Tom. She bites Lily when she tries to touch her.
+
+"Ow!" Lily cries. "Polly is mean. She hurt me."
+
+"Sorry, Lily," Tom says. "But Polly likes me more. She is my bird. You can play with your dolls."
+
+Lily is sad. She thinks Tom is selfish too. She wants to play with Polly. She does not want to play with her dolls. She waits for Tom to leave the room. Then she sneaks to Polly's cage. She opens the door and reaches for Polly.
+
+But Polly is not happy. She sees Lily and screeches. She flaps her wings and pecks at Lily's hand. Lily struggles to catch Polly. She is scared and angry.
+
+"Stop it, Polly!" Lily shouts. "You are a bad bird. You are not nice."
+
+Polly does not stop. She flies out of the cage and lands on Tom's bed. She laughs and says, "Ha, ha! I am Polly. I am a smart bird. You are Lily. You are a silly girl."
+
+Tom hears the noise and runs to the room. He sees Polly on his bed and Lily on the floor. He is mad at Lily. He thinks she is trying to take Polly away from him.
+
+"Go away, Lily!" Tom yells. "Polly is mine. You are not allowed to touch her."
+
+Lily is hurt. She does not understand why Tom and Polly are so mean to her. She runs to her mom and tells her what happened. Mom listens and hugs Lily. She is not happy with Tom and Polly. She decides to teach them a lesson. She takes Polly away from Tom and gives her to Lily. She tells Tom to play with his cars.
+
+"Here, Lily," Mom says. "You can play with Polly. She is not only Tom's bird. She is your bird too. You have to share and be kind to each other."
+
+Lily smiles and thanks Mom. She holds Polly gently and says, "Hello, Polly. I am Lily. I am a good girl. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Polly is surprised. She does not expect Lily to be nice to her. She feels sorry for being selfish and mean. She says, "Hello, Lily. I am Polly. I am sorry. I want to be your friend."
+
+Tom sees Lily and Polly playing. He feels lonely and sorry too. He realizes he was selfish and mean too. He goes to Lily and says, "Sorry, Lily. I was wrong. Polly is not only my bird. She is your bird too. Can we play together?"
+
+Lily nods and smiles. She says, "Yes, Tom. I forgive you. We can play together."
+
+Polly is happy. She says, "Hello, Tom. Hello, Lily. I am Polly. I am a good bird. I am your friend."
+
+Tom and Lily hug Polly. They say, "We love you, Polly. You are a good bird. You are our friend."
+
+Mom is proud. She says, "Well done, Tom and Lily. You learned to share and be kind. You are good twins. You are my friends."
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play together in the park. One day, they see a big box near the bench. It has a sticker that says "mail". They are curious.
+
+"Let's open it and see what's inside," Ben says.
+
+"No, we can't. It's not ours. It's for someone else," Sara says.
+
+"But maybe it has something fun or yummy. Maybe it's a present," Ben says.
+
+He pulls the box and tries to tear the tape. Sara is scared. She tries to stop him.
+
+"Stop, Ben, stop! You are being bad. You are breaking the rules. You are not gentle," Sara says.
+
+She grabs the box and pulls it back. Ben is angry. He pushes Sara and makes her fall. Sara cries. She hurts her knee and her elbow.
+
+"Go away, Sara. You are no fun. You are a baby. I don't want to play with you anymore," Ben says.
+
+He opens the box and looks inside. He sees a lot of papers and envelopes. He is disappointed. He throws them on the ground.
+
+"Boo, this is boring. This is not a present. This is mail. I don't like mail," Ben says.
+
+He kicks the box and walks away. He does not see the man who comes from the other side of the park. The man is angry. He sees the mess and the box. He sees the sticker. He sees his name.
+
+"Hey, you! What did you do to my mail? That's my mail. That's very important. How dare you?" the man says.
+
+He runs after Ben and catches him. He scolds him and shakes him. He calls the police. Ben is scared. He cries. He wishes he listened to Sara. He wishes he was gentle. He wishes he did not open the box. He is in trouble. He is sorry.
+Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big mill near the river. The mill had a big wheel that turned with the water. Lila and Ben wanted to see the mill up close.
+
+"Let's go inside the mill," Lila said. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+"No, Lila, we can't," Ben said. "Mom said the mill is not for kids. It is dangerous and wild. We might get hurt."
+
+Lila did not listen to Ben. She ran to the mill and found a small door. She opened it and saw a dark room with many machines and belts. She thought it looked like a fun game.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a game!" Lila shouted. "There is a hole here that I can fit in. I want to try it."
+
+Ben followed Lila and saw the hole. He saw that the hole was part of a big machine that moved fast and made loud noises. He was scared.
+
+"Lila, don't go in the hole!" Ben cried. "It is not a game. It is a bad machine. It will hurt you."
+
+But Lila did not hear Ben. She was curious and brave. She crawled into the hole and felt the machine pull her in. She screamed and tried to get out, but it was too late. The machine crushed her and she was gone.
+
+Ben was sad and shocked. He ran out of the mill and looked for help. He found Mom and told her what happened. Mom was angry and sad. She hugged Ben and cried.
+
+"Why did you go to the mill, Ben?" Mom asked. "Why did you let Lila go in the hole?"
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom," Ben said. "I tried to stop her, but she did not listen. She wanted to play."
+
+Mom shook her head and said, "Lila was foolish and reckless. She did not obey and she paid a high price. You should always listen to your elders and stay away from danger. That is the moral of this story."
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide on the grass. They saw a big hill and wanted to climb it. They ran up the hill, but it was very steep and bumpy. Lily stumbled and fell down. She hurt her knee and started to cry.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" Tom asked. He ran to her and helped her get up. He saw a drop of blood on her knee. He looked around and saw a bench nearby. He said, "Come on, Lily. Let's go to the bench. I have a band-aid in my pocket. I can put it on your knee."
+
+They walked to the bench. Tom took out a band-aid from his pocket. It was a jolly band-aid with a picture of a button on it. He said, "Look, Lily. This is a special band-aid. It has a button on it. Buttons are fun. You can make things with buttons. You can make a necklace or a bracelet or a picture. Do you like buttons, Lily?"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked buttons. She smiled and said, "Yes, I like buttons. They are pretty and shiny and colorful. Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend. Can I have the band-aid, please?"
+
+Tom smiled back. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are a good friend, too. Here, let me put the band-aid on your knee. There, does it feel better?"
+
+Lily touched the band-aid. It felt soft and sticky. She said, "Yes, it feels better. The button makes me happy. Can we play some more, Tom?"
+
+Tom said, "Sure, Lily. Let's play some more. But be careful. Don't stumble again. The hill is very steep and bumpy. Let's hold hands and go slowly."
+
+They held hands and went down the hill. They played in the park until it was time to go home. They had a lot of fun. They were jolly friends.
+Mia and Ben are twins, but they are very different. Mia likes to wear pink and play with dolls. Ben likes to wear blue and play with cars. One day, their mom gives them each a ball of wool and some needles. She says they can make something with them.
+
+"What are you going to make, Mia?" Ben asks.
+
+"I'm going to make a scarf for my doll. She is cold," Mia says.
+
+"That's boring. I'm going to make a rocket for my car. It is fast," Ben says.
+
+They start to make their things, but they have trouble. The wool is hard to use. The needles are sharp. They make knots and holes.
+
+"Mom, can you help me?" Mia cries.
+
+"Mom, can you help me?" Ben cries.
+
+Mom comes and sees their mess. She smiles and hugs them.
+
+"Making things with wool is not easy. But you are trying your best. That's good," she says.
+
+She looks at their things and says, "You know, you don't have to make what you think you should. You can make what you want. You can be creative. You can be unique."
+
+She suggests some ideas. She says Mia can make a hat or a skirt for her doll. She says Ben can make a snake or a dragon for his car. She says they can use different colors and shapes.
+
+Mia and Ben like mom's suggestions. They think they are fun and cool. They start to make their new things. They use the wool in different ways. They make loops and twists and pom-poms. They are happy and proud.
+
+They show mom their things. Mom is happy and proud too.
+
+"You made unique things with wool. They are beautiful and amazing. I love them," she says.
+
+Mia and Ben hug mom and thank her. They play with their things. They share and trade. They have fun. They are unique and they are twins.
+Lily and Ben were twins who loved to draw and paint. They were gifted with many colors and brushes. They liked to make pictures of animals, flowers, and stars. One day, their mom told them about a festival in the park. There would be music, games, and a contest for the best painting.
+
+Lily and Ben were very excited. They wanted to join the contest and win a prize. They each took a big paper and started to draw. Lily made a picture of a rainbow and a unicorn. Ben made a picture of a dragon and a castle. They worked hard and finished their paintings.
+
+They went to the park with their mom and dad. They saw many other children with their paintings. They gave their paintings to a lady who put them on a wall. Then they played some games and listened to some music. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Soon, it was time for the contest. The lady called all the children to the wall. She said that all the paintings were very beautiful and creative. But she had to choose one winner. She looked at all the paintings and pointed to one. It was Lily's painting of a rainbow and a unicorn.
+
+Lily was very happy. She ran to the lady and hugged her. She got a medal and a book as a prize. She thanked the lady and showed her prize to her mom and dad. They were very proud of her.
+
+Ben was sad. He did not win anything. He thought his painting of a dragon and a castle was better than Lily's. He felt angry and jealous. He did not want to congratulate Lily. He turned away and crossed his arms.
+
+Lily saw Ben and felt sorry for him. She loved her brother and wanted him to be happy too. She went to him and said, "Ben, I like your painting very much. It is very cool and brave. You are gifted too. Do you want to share my prize with me? We can read the book together and learn more about dragons and castles."
+
+Ben looked at Lily and saw her smile. He felt a warm feeling in his heart. He realized that he was being mean and selfish. He said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I was wrong. You are very kind and generous. You deserve to win. I'm happy for you. Thank you for sharing your prize with me. I love you, sister."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged each other and smiled. They went to their mom and dad and showed them their prize. They said, "We are both winners. We have each other. We love you, mom and dad."
+
+Mom and dad hugged them and said, "We love you too, Lily and Ben. You are both gifted and wonderful. We are very proud of you. You have learned a valuable lesson today. Sharing is caring. And love is the best prize of all."
+Sara liked to help her mom make cookies. She would mix the flour, the sugar, the butter and the eggs in a big bowl. Then she would roll the dough into small balls and put them on a tray. Mom would put the tray in the oven and set the timer.
+
+One day, Sara wanted to surprise her mom with cookies. She waited until mom went to the store and then she got the bowl and the ingredients. She tried to remember how mom did it, but she was not sure. She put too much flour, not enough sugar, and forgot the eggs. She rolled the dough into big balls and put them on the tray. She put the tray in the oven and turned it on.
+
+She was very proud of herself and waited for mom to come back. She heard the timer beep and ran to the oven. She opened it and saw the cookies. They were not round and soft like mom's. They were flat and hard and burned. They smelled bad. Sara felt embarrassed. She wanted to hide the cookies, but it was too late. Mom came in and saw the oven and the tray.
+
+"Sara, what did you do?" mom asked.
+
+"I wanted to make cookies for you, mom. But I think I did it wrong. I'm sorry, mom." Sara said.
+
+Mom looked at Sara and smiled. She hugged her and said, "It's okay, Sara. I appreciate that you wanted to make cookies for me. That was very sweet of you. But next time, please ask me first. Making cookies is not easy. You need to follow the recipe and be careful with the oven. It can be dangerous."
+
+Sara nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I love you, mom."
+
+"I love you too, Sara. How about we make some new cookies together? I'll show you how to do it right." mom said.
+
+Sara smiled and said, "Yes, please, mom. I want to learn how to make cookies like you."
+Anna loved to play with her toys in the bathtub. She had a yellow duck, a blue boat, a green frog and a pink fish. She was eager to enter the bathtub every night and make bubbles and splashes with her toys.
+
+One night, she saw a new toy on the shelf. It was a big, black, furry toy. It had two pointy ears, two shiny eyes and two sharp teeth. Anna thought it was a funny toy and wanted to play with it. She asked her mom, "What is this toy, mom?"
+
+Her mom said, "That is not a toy, Anna. That is a real bat. It flew into the house through the window and I caught it with a towel. I put it on the shelf until I can take it outside. Do not touch it, Anna. It might bite you."
+
+Anna nodded, but she was curious about the bat. She wondered how it felt and how it moved. She thought it might be fun to play with it in the bathtub. She waited until her mom left the bathroom and then she reached for the bat.
+
+The bat was not happy to be grabbed by Anna. It squeaked and flapped its wings and tried to escape. Anna was scared and dropped the bat into the bathtub. The bat splashed into the water and got wet and angry. It flew out of the bathtub and chased Anna around the bathroom. Anna screamed and ran to the door. She opened the door and ran to her mom.
+
+Her mom heard Anna's scream and came to the bathroom. She saw the bat flying around and Anna crying. She grabbed a towel and threw it over the bat. She wrapped the bat in the towel and took it outside. She came back to the bathroom and hugged Anna.
+
+She said, "Are you okay, Anna? Did the bat hurt you?"
+
+Anna said, "No, mom. I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to play with the bat, but it was not a toy. It was scary and mean. I don't like bats."
+
+Her mom said, "It's okay, Anna. I'm glad you are not hurt. Bats are not toys. They are wild animals. They do not like to be touched or wet. They like to fly in the dark and eat bugs. You should never play with bats. You should only play with your toys in the bathtub."
+
+Anna said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I will only play with my toys in the bathtub. Can I still play with my duck and my boat and my frog and my fish?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, Anna. You can play with your toys in the bathtub. But first, let me dry you and put on your pajamas. Then you can enter the bathtub and have fun."
+
+Anna smiled and hugged her mom. She was eager to enter the bathtub and play with her toys. She did not want to see the bat ever again.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the park. They liked to run, slide and swing. But it was very sunny and hot. Tom had sunglasses. He put them on his eyes. He looked cool.
+
+"Look at me, Anna!" he said. "I have sunglasses. They make the sun less bright. Do you want to try them?"
+
+Anna nodded. She wanted to try the sunglasses. She took them from Tom and put them on her eyes. She looked cool too.
+
+"Wow, Anna!" Tom said. "You look like a star. Let's pretend we are stars. We can follow each other and sing songs."
+
+Anna liked that idea. She followed Tom and they sang songs. They sang about the sun, the sky and the park. They had fun.
+
+But then they saw a man. He was pale and thin. He had a big hat and a long coat. He looked strange. He looked at Tom and Anna. He smiled.
+
+"Hello, little stars," he said. "You have nice sunglasses. Can I have them?"
+
+Tom and Anna felt scared. They did not know the man. They did not want to give him their sunglasses. They ran away. They ran to their mom. She was sitting on a bench. She saw them and hugged them.
+
+"What's wrong, Tom and Anna?" she asked. "Who was that man?"
+
+Tom and Anna told her about the man. They told her he wanted their sunglasses. They told her he was pale and thin.
+
+Mom looked angry. She looked at the man. He was still there. He was still smiling.
+
+"That's not a nice man," she said. "He is a bad man. He tries to take things from children. You did well to run away. You should never follow strangers. You should always stay with me or someone you know. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Anna nodded. They understood. They were glad they had mom. They were glad they had each other. They were glad they still had their sunglasses. They put them on again and smiled. They were still stars.
+Tom likes to drive his toy car. He makes it go fast and slow, and honks the horn. He drives it on the floor, on the couch, and on the table. He drives it everywhere.
+
+One day, Tom wants to drive his toy car outside. He puts on his shoes and his hat, and grabs his car. He runs to the door, but it is locked. He sees his mom in the kitchen. She is busy making lunch.
+
+"Mom, can I drive my car outside?" Tom asks.
+
+"Not now, Tom. You have to wait. Lunch is almost ready," Mom says.
+
+Tom does not want to wait. He wants to drive his car now. He stamps his feet and pouts. He cries and whines. He is very mad.
+
+Mom hears Tom and comes to the door. She sees his toy car and his sad face. She feels sorry for him. She hugs him and says, "I know you want to drive your car, Tom. But you have to be patient. Waiting is hard, but sometimes we have to do it. How about we drive your car together after lunch?"
+
+Tom thinks about it. He likes to drive his car with Mom. She makes funny noises and tells him stories. He decides to wait. He wipes his tears and smiles. He says, "Okay, Mom. I will wait. But can I have a cookie?"
+
+Mom laughs and says, "Sure, Tom. You can have a cookie. But only one. You don't want to be too chubby, do you?"
+
+Tom nods and says, "No, Mom. I don't want to be chubby. I want to be fast like my car."
+
+Mom gives him a cookie and a kiss. She says, "You are fast and smart and sweet, Tom. And I love you very much."
+
+Tom eats his cookie and says, "I love you too, Mom. And I love my car. Can we drive it now?"
+
+Mom says, "Not yet, Tom. But soon. Very soon."
+Tommy and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big rocket on the grass. It was shiny and red and had a pointy nose.
+
+"Wow, look at that rocket!" Tommy said. "Can we touch it?"
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe it belongs to someone."
+
+They walked closer to the rocket. It looked very cool. They wanted to touch it and see how it felt.
+
+"Hello, kids," a voice said. "Do you like my rocket?"
+
+They turned around and saw a chubby man with a beard. He was wearing a blue suit and a helmet. He smiled at them.
+
+"Who are you?" Tommy asked.
+
+"I'm an astronaut," the man said. "I came from the sky in this rocket. Do you want to see inside?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tommy and Lily said.
+
+The man opened a door on the side of the rocket. He invited them to come in. They followed him and saw many buttons and screens and wires.
+
+"This is where I control the rocket," the man said. "It can fly very fast and very high. Do you want to try?"
+
+Tommy and Lily nodded. They were very excited. The man let them touch some of the buttons and screens. They made funny noises and lights.
+
+"Beep, beep, beep!" Tommy said.
+
+"Zoom, zoom, zoom!" Lily said.
+
+They had a lot of fun in the rocket. The man told them stories about the stars and the planets. They learned many new things.
+
+"Thank you for showing us your rocket," Tommy and Lily said.
+
+"You're welcome, kids," the man said. "I'm glad you liked it. But now I have to go back to the sky. Do you want to wave goodbye?"
+
+"Yes, bye-bye, astronaut!" Tommy and Lily said.
+
+They went out of the rocket and watched the man close the door. He waved at them and pushed a big button. The rocket made a loud noise and a bright flame. It lifted off the ground and flew into the air.
+
+"Wow, that was amazing!" Tommy and Lily said.
+
+They clapped their hands and cheered. They saw the rocket become smaller and smaller until it disappeared in the blue sky. They smiled and hugged each other. They had a wonderful day.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tire near the swings. It is old and cheap. No one wants it.
+
+"Let's play with the tire!" Tom says. He rolls the tire to the grass. Lily runs after him. They take turns pushing and rolling the tire. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. It is black and loud. It sees the tire and wants it. It barks and runs to the tire. Tom and Lily are scared. They run away from the dog.
+
+The dog catches the tire in its mouth. It shakes it and bites it. It makes holes in the tire. The tire is broken. The dog is happy.
+
+Tom and Lily are sad. They lost their tire. They go to the swings. They swing and forget the tire. They are friends. They still have fun.
+Tom and Anna are playing with their cars on the floor. Tom has a red car and Anna has a blue car. They make noises like vroom and beep as they move their cars around.
+
+"Look, my car is faster than yours!" Tom says. He speeds his car towards Anna's car and bumps it.
+
+"Hey, don't do that!" Anna says. She is upset. She does not like it when Tom bumps her car. She speeds her car away from Tom's car and hides it behind a pillow.
+
+"Where is your car?" Tom asks. He looks for Anna's car. He wants to bump it again. He thinks it is fun.
+
+"It's none of your business!" Anna says. She crosses her arms and pouts. She does not want to play with Tom anymore.
+
+Tom is bored. He sees his mom's phone on the table. He likes to play with the phone. He picks up the phone and presses some buttons. He hears a voice on the phone.
+
+"Hello, who is this?" the voice says.
+
+Tom does not know what to say. He is scared. He drops the phone and runs to Anna.
+
+"Anna, Anna, help me!" he says. He hugs Anna.
+
+"What's wrong?" Anna asks. She is surprised. She sees the phone on the floor.
+
+"Someone is on the phone!" Tom says. He points to the phone.
+
+Anna picks up the phone. She hears the voice on the phone.
+
+"Hello, is anyone there?" the voice says.
+
+Anna recognizes the voice. It is her dad. He is at work.
+
+"Hi, dad!" Anna says. She smiles.
+
+"Hi, Anna! Is everything okay?" her dad says. He is happy to hear Anna.
+
+"Yes, dad. Tom and I are playing with our cars. But Tom bumped my car and I got upset. And then he played with your phone and he got scared." Anna says.
+
+"Oh, I see. Well, I'm glad you're okay. Can you put mom on the phone?" her dad says.
+
+"Okay, dad. I love you!" Anna says.
+
+"I love you too, Anna. And Tom. Be nice to each other, okay?" her dad says.
+
+Anna gives the phone to her mom. She looks at Tom. Tom looks at her. They are sorry. They hug each other.
+
+"Let's play with our cars again. But no bumping, okay?" Anna says.
+
+"Okay. And no playing with the phone, okay?" Tom says.
+
+"Okay." Anna says.
+
+They smile. They play with their cars. They are happy.
+Sara was a curious girl who liked to explore the kitchen. One day, she saw a red pepper on the counter and wanted to taste it. She reached for it and took a big bite. But the pepper was very hot and spicy. It made her mouth burn and her eyes water. She dropped the pepper and started to weep.
+
+Her mom heard her weep and came to see what was wrong. She saw the pepper and understood. She hugged Sara and gave her some water and milk. She told her that the pepper was not for eating, but for cooking. She said that some people liked hot and spicy food, but others did not. She asked Sara if she wanted to try something else.
+
+Sara nodded and wiped her tears. She was still curious, but also careful. She asked her mom what else was in the kitchen. Her mom showed her some fruits, vegetables, cheese, bread, and cookies. She let Sara choose what she wanted to eat. Sara picked a banana and a cookie. She smiled and thanked her mom. She learned that not all food was the same, and that some food could make her weep.
+Anna liked to study. She liked to learn new things from books and pictures. She wanted to be clever like her big sister, who knew many words and numbers. But sometimes, Anna got bored of studying. She wanted to play and have fun.
+
+One day, Anna was studying in her room. She saw a book about water and how it came from the faucet. She wondered what would happen if she turned on the faucet in the bathroom. She left her book and went to the bathroom. She turned on the faucet and saw the water come out. She thought it was fun to watch the water splash and make bubbles. She forgot about her book and played with the water.
+
+But soon, the water filled the sink and spilled over. It made a big mess on the floor and the rug. Anna heard her mom come in and say, "Anna, what are you doing? Look at this mess! You should not play with the faucet. You should study your book. Water is precious and we should not waste it."
+
+Anna felt sorry and scared. She did not mean to make a mess. She did not know that water was precious. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was curious about the water. I wanted to see how it came from the faucet. I forgot about my book. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Mom hugged Anna and said, "I'm not mad at you, Anna. I'm glad you are curious and want to learn. But you should be careful and responsible. You should not play with things that can cause trouble. You should study your book and ask me if you have questions. I will teach you more about water and why it is precious. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I will be careful and responsible. I will study my book and ask you questions. I want to be clever and learn more. Thank you, mom."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, Anna. You are a clever and sweet girl. I love you. Now, let's clean up this mess and then we can have a snack."
+
+Anna and mom cleaned up the mess and then had a snack. Anna learned a lesson that day. She learned that water is precious and that she should not waste it. She learned that she should be careful and responsible when she is curious. She learned that she should study her book and ask questions. She learned that mom loves her and wants to help her. She was happy and proud of herself. She decided to study more and play less with the faucet.

+
+But Mom does not come. They hear a loud noise outside. They hear Mom scream. They hear a wild animal roar. They are scared. They hug each other and whisper.
+
+"What is that?" Anna asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a bear or a lion," Ben says.
+
+"Will Mom be okay?" Anna asks.
+
+"I hope so. We have to help her," Ben says.
+
+They open the door and peek outside. They see a big, furry, angry animal. It has sharp teeth and claws. It is trying to get into the house. Mom is holding a broom and trying to scare it away.
+
+"Mom!" Anna and Ben shout.
+
+Mom sees them and smiles. She is happy to see them. She tells them to stay in the cupboard. She says she will unite with them soon. She says she loves them.
+
+Anna and Ben go back into the cupboard. They are brave. They are not alone. They are united. They love Mom. They hope she will be okay. They wait for her to come.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a carrot nose and a scarf. They were very happy.
+
+"Look at our snowman! He is so nice!" Anna said.
+
+"Yes, he is! But we should go inside soon. It is very cold." Ben said.
+
+They went inside and had some hot chocolate. They forgot about the snowman.
+
+The next day, the sun was shining. It was not cold anymore. The snowman started to melt. His hat fell off. His nose fell off. His scarf fell off. He was very sad.
+
+"Where are Anna and Ben? They were my friends. Why did they leave me?" The snowman said.
+
+A bird heard the snowman. He flew down and landed on his head.
+
+"Hello, snowman. Why are you sad?" The bird said.
+
+"I am sad because I am melting. And because Anna and Ben left me. They made me and then they forgot me." The snowman said.
+
+"That is not nice. But maybe they will come back. Maybe they will fix you. Don't lose hope." The bird said.
+
+The bird stayed with the snowman. He sang him a song. He made him feel better.
+
+Anna and Ben came back. They saw the snowman. He was very messy. He was almost gone.
+
+"Oh no! Our snowman! He is melting!" Anna said.
+
+"We were so mean! We left him alone! We should have taken care of him!" Ben said.
+
+They ran to the snowman. They tried to fix him. They put his hat back on. They put his nose back on. They put his scarf back on. They gave him a hug.
+
+"Snowman, we are sorry. We were bad friends. We will not forget you again. We will play with you every day." Anna said.
+
+"Snowman, we are sorry. We were selfish. We will not leave you again. We will keep you warm every day." Ben said.
+
+The snowman smiled. He was happy. He had good friends.
+
+"Thank you, Anna and Ben. Thank you, bird. You are all very kind. You made me happy." The snowman said.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't forget your friends. Take care of them. Be kind to them. They will make you happy.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big bird with red and yellow feathers. The bird is flying in the sky.
+
+"Wow, look at that bird!" Tom says. "It can fly so high and fast!"
+
+"I want to fly like that bird!" Lily says. "It must be fun!"
+
+They run after the bird, but they cannot catch it. The bird flies away to a tree. Tom and Lily follow it. They see the bird eating some red berries from the tree.
+
+"Can we eat those berries too?" Lily asks. "They look yummy!"
+
+"I don't know," Tom says. "Maybe they are spicy. Spicy food makes your mouth hot and hurts your eye."
+
+They pick some berries and try them. They are very spicy! Tom and Lily spit them out and cry.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom says. "These berries are too spicy! They make my mouth hot and hurt my eye!"
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily says. "These berries are too spicy! They make my mouth hot and hurt my eye!"

+
+Tom and Lily are sad and angry. They go back to their mom and dad. They tell them what happened. Their mom and dad hug them and give them some water and ice cream.
+
+"Don't worry, Tom and Lily," their mom says. "You are brave and smart. You don't need to fly like that bird. You have your own gifts and talents."
+
+"That's right, Tom and Lily," their dad says. "You are kind and sweet. You don't need to eat those berries. You have your own tastes and preferences."
+
+Tom and Lily smile and feel better. They eat their ice cream and play with their mom and dad. They forget about the bird and the berries. They are happy.
+On Wednesday, Sam and Lily went to the park with their mom. They liked to play on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. They also liked to watch the cars and buses go by on the road.
+
+"Look, Lily, that bus is big and yellow!" Sam said, pointing to a school bus.
+
+"Yes, and it has many windows and wheels!" Lily said, counting them with her fingers.
+
+They saw the bus stop at a red light and then start to move again. But instead of going forward, the bus went backward. It was reversing!
+
+"Why is the bus going backward, mom?" Sam asked, feeling confused.
+
+"Maybe the driver made a mistake, or he needs to turn around," mom said, smiling. "Sometimes, we have to reverse when we want to go in a different direction."
+
+"Oh, I see," Sam said, nodding. "Can we reverse too, mom?"
+
+"Sure, you can reverse on the swings, or on the slide, or in the sandbox," mom said. "But be careful not to bump into anyone or anything."
+
+Sam and Lily thought that reversing was fun. They tried to reverse on the swings, making them go backward and forward. They tried to reverse on the slide, climbing up from the bottom and sliding down from the top. They tried to reverse in the sandbox, digging holes and filling them up again.
+
+They had a lot of fun reversing, until they got tired and thirsty. They went to mom and asked for some water.
+
+"Here you go, my little reversers," mom said, giving them each a bottle of water. "You did a great job reversing today. But now, it's time to go home and have some lunch."
+
+"OK, mom," Sam and Lily said, drinking their water. They were happy and hungry. They liked to reverse, but they also liked to go forward. They liked to go to the park on Wednesday, but they also liked to go home. They liked to play in the dry sand, but they also liked to drink some water. They liked to try new things, but they also liked to do their old things. They liked to be Sam and Lily.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their crayons and paper. They like to draw pictures of animals and cars and flowers. Lily has a big idea. She wants to make a print of her hand.
+
+"Look, Ben, I can make a print of my hand!" she says. She puts her hand on the paper and traces it with a crayon. Then she fills in the outline with different colors. She shows Ben her print. "Isn't it pretty?"
+
+Ben nods. He thinks Lily's print is pretty. He wants to make a print of his hand too. He puts his hand on another paper and traces it with a crayon. But he does not fill in the outline. He leaves it empty.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can make a scary print of my hand!" he says. He shows Lily his print. "Isn't it scary?"
+
+Lily looks at Ben's print. She does not think it is scary. She thinks it is funny. She laughs. "No, Ben, it is not scary. It is silly. It looks like a ghost hand!"
+
+Ben looks at his print again. He sees that it does look like a ghost hand. He laughs too. "You are right, Lily, it is silly. It is a ghost hand!"
+

+
+"Can we help you, dad?" Lily and Tom ask. They want to work too.
+
+"Sure, you can help me. You are very kind," dad says. He gives them a small shovel and a bucket. "You can dig some holes for the seeds. But be careful, don't dig too deep or too close to the flowers."
+
+Lily and Tom nod and smile. They take the shovel and the bucket and go to a spot in the garden. They dig some holes and put some seeds in them. They cover them with dirt and pat them gently. They feel proud and helpful.
+
+"Look, dad, we did it!" Lily and Tom say. They show their dad their work.
+
+"Wow, you did a great job! Thank you, Lily and Tom. You are very good workers," dad says. He hugs them and kisses them. "Now, let's go inside and have some juice and cookies. You deserve a treat."
+
+Lily and Tom are happy and hungry. They follow their dad inside. They drink some juice and eat some cookies. They talk and laugh and enjoy their time. They love their dad and their garden. They are young and cheerful.
+Sam and Tom are friends. They like to go on tours with their moms. They see many things and learn new words. One day, they go to the zoo. They see lions, monkeys, birds and more.
+
+They come to the bald eagle. The bald eagle is big and has no hair on its head. It has white feathers on its tail and brown feathers on its body. It has a yellow beak and sharp claws. Sam and Tom think the bald eagle is cool.
+
+"I want to be a bald eagle when I grow up," Sam says.
+
+"No, I want to be a bald eagle," Tom says.
+
+They start to fight. They push and pull and yell. Their moms hear them and come to stop them.
+
+"Sam, Tom, what are you doing?" Sam's mom asks.
+
+"We want to be bald eagles," they say.
+
+"But you can't be bald eagles. You are boys. You have hair and skin and teeth and nails. You are different from bald eagles. And you are friends. You should not fight over silly things. You should share and take turns and be nice to each other," Tom's mom says.
+
+Sam and Tom feel sorry. They say sorry to each other and hug. They say sorry to their moms and the bald eagle. They decide to be friends and not fight. They finish their tour and see more animals. They have fun and learn more words. They are happy.
+Lily liked to play with her toys in the bathtub. She had a duck, a boat, a fish and a frog. She made them swim and splash and talk to each other. She pretended the duck was the captain of the boat and the fish and the frog were his friends.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, it's time to take a bath. Come on, let's fill the bathtub with water and bubbles." Lily ran to the bathroom and helped her mom turn on the faucet. She watched the water fill the bathtub and make bubbles. She said, "Mom, can I bring my toys to the bath?"
+
+"Of course, sweetie. Go get them from your room," her mom said. Lily ran to her room and grabbed her toys. She was so excited to play with them in the bathtub. She came back to the bathroom and saw that the bathtub was full of water and bubbles. She said, "Wow, mom, it looks like a big lake!"
+
+She put her toys in the bathtub and climbed in. She felt the warm water and the soft bubbles on her skin. She said, "This is fun, mom. Thank you for filling the bathtub for me." She started to play with her toys and make them swim and splash and talk to each other.
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you're having fun. But don't forget to wash your hair and your body, okay?" Lily nodded and said, "Okay, mom. But can I play for a little bit more?" Her mom said, "Sure, sweetie. But not too long, or the water will get cold and dull." Lily said, "Okay, mom. I love you." Her mom said, "I love you too, Lily."

+Sara and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They made loud noises and pretended to race and crash. Mom was in the kitchen, making lunch. She heard the noise and came to see what was going on.
+
+"Children, please be quiet and play nicely. I don't want you to break anything or hurt yourselves," she said.
+
+"But Mom, we are having fun. We are playing cops and robbers. I am the cop and Ben is the robber. He has to surrender or I will catch him," Sara said.
+
+"No, I won't surrender. I am too fast and smart. You can't catch me," Ben said.
+
+They continued to play, ignoring Mom. Mom sighed and went back to the kitchen. She hoped they would calm down soon.
+
+Sara and Ben chased each other around the living room, bumping into the sofa, the table, and the lamp. They knocked over a vase and it broke on the floor. They heard a loud crash and stopped. They looked at the broken vase and felt scared. They knew Mom would be angry.
+
+"Uh-oh, we are in trouble. What do we do?" Sara asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we can hide," Ben suggested.
+
+They ran to their bedroom and hid under the bed. They hoped Mom would not find them. They heard Mom coming and held their breath.
+
+Mom saw the broken vase and the mess in the living room. She was very angry and sad. She loved that vase. It was a gift from Grandma. She looked for Sara and Ben and found them under the bed. She pulled them out and looked at them sternly.
+
+"Children, what have you done? You broke the vase and made a big mess. You did not listen to me. You were very naughty. You have to say sorry and help me clean up," she said.
+
+Sara and Ben felt sorry and ashamed. They knew they had done wrong. They looked at Mom and said in a small voice, "Sorry, Mom. We were playing and we did not mean to break the vase. We will help you clean up."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I forgive you, but you have to be more careful and respectful. The vase was very special to me. It was smooth and shiny and had flowers on it. Grandma gave it to me when we moved to this home. It reminded me of her and of our old home. Now it is gone and I am sad."
+
+Sara and Ben hugged Mom back and said, "We are sorry, Mom. We love you and we love our home. We will not play with the toy cars in the living room anymore. We will play with them outside or in our bedroom. We will be good and quiet."

+"Okay, Lily, I won't mention the worm," Tom said. "But can I keep the saw?"
+

+
+One day, Sara says to Ben, "Let's marry. You are my king and I am your queen. We can have a big party and cake and dance."
+
+Ben says, "OK, Sara. But we have to wait. We are too small to marry. We have to grow up first. Then we can marry."
+
+Sara says, "But I don't want to wait. I want to marry you now. You are my best friend. We can have fun now. We don't need to grow up."

+One day, a little boy named Ben found a big cardboard box in his backyard. He was very happy and ran to his mom. "Mom, look what I found! Can I play with it?" he asked.
+
+"Sure, honey, you can play with it. But be careful, it might be dirty or have bugs inside," his mom said.
+
+Ben did not care. He dragged the cardboard box to his room and started to make it into a spaceship. He cut out windows and doors and drew buttons and stars on it. He put on his helmet and pretended to fly to the moon.
+
+He was having so much fun that he did not hear his sister, Lily, come into his room. Lily was older and smarter than Ben. She liked to tease him and make him angry. She saw his cardboard spaceship and thought of a way to ruin his game.
+
+She sneaked behind him and said in a loud voice, "Ben, guess what? I have a surprise for you!"
+
+Ben turned around and saw Lily holding a big scissors. He was scared and curious. "What is it?" he asked.
+
+Lily smiled wickedly and said, "I'm going to cut your spaceship into pieces! Then you can't play with it anymore!"
+
+Ben felt very sad and angry. He loved his spaceship and did not want Lily to destroy it. He tried to stop her, but she was bigger and stronger than him. She pushed him away and started to cut the cardboard.
+
+Ben cried and ran to his mom. He told her what Lily did and how mean she was. His mom was very angry and disappointed with Lily. She went to his room and saw the mess. She scolded Lily and took away her scissors. She told her to apologize to Ben and help him fix his spaceship.
+
+Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She realized that she was wrong and hurtful. She said sorry to Ben and hugged him. She helped him tape the cardboard and decorate it again. She even played with him and pretended to be his co-pilot.
+
+Ben forgave Lily and was happy to have his sister as his friend. He learned that his cardboard spaceship was more fun when he shared it with someone. He also learned that Lily was not always mean and smart. Sometimes, she was nice and fun.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be mean and selfish. Be kind and generous. You will have more friends and happiness.

+
+Tom and Sue are very brave. They hug each other and their moms. They thank the zookeepers for saving them. They say goodbye to the bear, but not to the snake.
+
+They have learned a lesson. The zoo is a fun place to visit, but they have to be careful of the animals. Some animals can be friendly, but some animals can be fearful. They have to respect the life of all animals.
+Lily and Ben liked to play pirates on the big boat. They had a flag, a map, and a hook. They also had an anchor to stop the boat when they found treasure.
+
+One day, they saw a shiny island on the map. They wanted to go there and dig for gold. They pulled up the anchor and told the boat to speed.
+
+"Speed, boat, speed!" they shouted. "We want to be rich pirates!"
+
+But the boat did not speed. It was slow and lazy. It did not listen to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Why are you so slow, boat?" Lily asked. "Don't you want to have fun?"
+
+The boat did not answer. It just made a loud noise.
+
+"Maybe the boat is sick," Ben said. "Maybe it needs some water or oil."
+
+Lily and Ben looked for water and oil, but they could not find any. They only found a big hole in the boat.
+
+"Oh no!" they cried. "The boat has a hole! It is sinking!"
+
+They ran to the anchor and threw it into the water. They hoped the anchor would stop the boat from sinking.
+
+But the anchor did not stop the boat. It was too light and small. It just bounced on the water.
+
+"Help, help!" they screamed. "We need a bigger anchor!"
+
+They looked for a bigger anchor, but they could not find any. They only found a big fish.
+
+The fish was big and blue. It had a long tail and a big mouth. It saw Lily and Ben and swam to them.
+
+"Hello, little pirates," the fish said. "Do you need some help?"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared of the fish. They thought the fish wanted to eat them.
+
+"Go away, fish!" they shouted. "You are not our friend!"
+
+But the fish was not mean. It was kind and smart. It saw the hole in the boat and the light anchor.
+
+"I can help you," the fish said. "I can be your anchor. I can hold your boat and keep it from sinking."
+
+Lily and Ben did not believe the fish. They thought the fish was lying.
+
+"No, thank you, fish," they said. "We don't need your help. We can fix our boat ourselves."
+
+But the fish was persistent. It did not give up. It grabbed the anchor with its tail and pulled the boat to the shore.
+
+"See, I told you I can help you," the fish said. "Now you are safe and dry. You can fix your boat and play pirates again."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the fish. They saw that the fish was not lying. It was telling the truth. It was their friend.
+
+"Thank you, fish," they said. "You are very kind and smart. You are our hero. You can be our pirate too."
+
+The fish smiled and nodded. It was happy to help Lily and Ben. It was happy to be their pirate.
+
+They all became friends and played pirates together. They had a flag, a map, a hook, and a fish. They also had a new anchor. A big and blue and kind and smart and persistent anchor.
+Tim and Jen were in the car with Mom and Dad. They were going to the zoo to see the animals. Tim and Jen liked the zoo a lot. They wanted to see the lions, the monkeys, and the penguins.
+
+But the sky was gloomy and dark. It started to rain very hard. Mom and Dad said they had to turn back. Tim and Jen were sad. They did not want to go home. They wanted to go to the zoo.
+
+Mom and Dad tried to cheer them up. They said they could play games in the car. They said they could sing songs and tell jokes. They said they could go to the zoo another day.
+
+But Tim and Jen did not listen. They were angry and bored. They started to fight and kick each other. They did not wear their buckles. They did not care about safety.
+
+Mom and Dad told them to stop. They said they had to be good and quiet. They said they had to wear their buckles. They said they loved them very much.
+
+But Tim and Jen did not listen. They kept fighting and kicking. They did not see the big truck that was coming fast. They did not hear the loud horn that was honking. They did not feel the car that was spinning.
+
+The truck hit the car. The car crashed. The car broke. Mom and Dad passed. Tim and Jen passed. They did not go to the zoo. They did not go home. They did not see the animals. They did not play games. They did not sing songs. They did not tell jokes. They did not say sorry. They did not say I love you. They did not say anything.
+Tom and Mia were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They saw a cricket on a leaf. It was green and shiny.
+
+"Look, a cricket!" Tom said. "Can we catch it?"
+
+Mia shook her head. "No, we should not. Crickets are wise. They can sing and jump. They have stories to tell."
+
+"How do you know?" Tom asked.
+
+Mia smiled. "My grandma told me. She said crickets are lucky. They can help us learn and be happy. She said we should listen to them and be kind."
+
+Tom and Mia sat down next to the leaf. They were quiet and still. They heard the cricket chirp. It sounded like a song.
+
+"Hello, cricket," Mia said softly. "We are Tom and Mia. We want to be your friends. Can you tell us a story?"
+
+The cricket stopped chirping. It looked at them with its big eyes. It nodded its head.
+
+"Hello, Tom and Mia," the cricket said. "I am glad you are kind. I have many stories to tell. Do you want to hear one?"
+
+Tom and Mia nodded. They were excited and curious.
+
+"Okay," the cricket said. "But first, you have to do something for me. You have to stir the pot."
+
+Tom and Mia looked at each other. They did not see a pot.
+
+"What pot?" Tom asked.
+
+The cricket pointed with its leg. "There, behind the bush. There is a pot of soup. It is for my family. They are hungry and cold. You have to stir it so it does not burn. Then I will tell you a story."
+
+Tom and Mia agreed. They got up and went to the bush. They saw a small pot on a fire. It smelled good. They took turns to stir it with a stick.
+
+The cricket watched them. It smiled. It was happy they were helpful. It was ready to tell them a story.
+Lila and Ben are playing with their toy cars in the garden. They make vroom-vroom noises and race each other on the grass. Lila has a red car and Ben has a blue car. They are having fun.
+
+But then, Lila's car stops moving. She tries to push it, but it does not go. She looks at Ben and says, "My car is broken. Why is your car still moving?"
+
+Ben smiles and says, "My car is not broken, because I give it oil. Oil makes the car go fast and smooth. Do you want some oil for your car?"
+
+Lila nods and says, "Yes, please. Where do you get oil?"
+
+Ben points to a small bottle on the table. He says, "That is oil. It is light and shiny. You have to be careful with it. It is not for drinking. It is only for cars. Come, I will show you how to use it."
+
+Lila and Ben go to the table. Ben opens the bottle and pours a little bit of oil into Lila's car. He says, "There, that is enough. Now your car has oil. Try to move it again."
+
+Lila takes her car and pushes it. It moves again. It goes faster and smoother than before. Lila is happy. She says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. Oil is good for cars. It makes them happy."
+
+Ben says, "You are welcome, Lila. You are a good friend too. Let's play some more. Vroom-vroom!"
+
+Lila and Ben play with their cars again. They race and laugh and have fun. They do not drink the oil. They know it is only for cars. They are smart and careful. They are happy.
+Anna loves to run. She runs every day with her dad in the park. She likes to see the birds, the flowers and the other kids. She wants to be a famous runner when she grows up.
+
+One day, Anna sees a poster in the park. It says there is a race for kids. The winner will get a medal. Anna wants to join the race. She asks her dad if she can. He says yes and helps her sign up.
+
+On the day of the race, Anna is very excited. She wears her best shoes and her favorite shirt. She sees many other kids at the start line. They all look fast and strong. Anna feels a little scared, but she remembers her dad's words. He says, "Just do your best and have fun."
+
+The race begins. Anna runs as fast as she can. She passes some kids, but some kids pass her. She keeps running and does not give up. She sees the finish line. She sees her dad cheering for her. She sees a medal shining in the sun. She runs faster and faster.
+
+Anna crosses the finish line. She is not the first, but she is not the last. She is happy and proud. She gets a medal from a nice lady. She hugs her dad and shows him her medal. He says, "You did great, Anna. You are a famous runner to me." Anna smiles and says, "Thank you, dad. I love you." They go home and gather all her medals. She has many medals from different races. She puts them on her wall and dreams of running more.
+Lily and Ben like to visit their grandma every week. Grandma lives in a small house with a big garden. She grows many things in the garden, like flowers, carrots, and potatoes.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben help grandma dig up some potatoes. They use a big shovel and a small basket. They find many potatoes under the dirt. Some are big, some are small, some are round, and some are funny shapes.
+
+But one potato is very unusual. It has two eyes, a nose, a mouth, and two ears. It looks like a face. Lily and Ben are surprised and laugh. They show the potato to grandma. Grandma laughs too. She says it is a special potato. She says they can keep it as a friend.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They wash the potato and give it a name. They call it Pete. They put Pete in a pot with some soil and water. They put the pot on the windowsill in their room. They talk to Pete and sing to him. They think he is the best potato ever.
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. Tom has a big truck and Mia has a doll. Tom likes to make loud noises with his truck and Mia likes to dress up her doll.
+
+"Look at my doll, Tom. She has a red dress and a red hat. She is very pretty," Mia says.
+
+Tom does not care about the doll. He wants to play with his truck. He drives his truck over to Mia and bumps into her doll.
+
+"Hey, stop that! You are messing up my doll!" Mia says.
+
+Tom laughs and does it again. He thinks it is funny to make Mia angry. He grabs Mia's doll and tries to pull off her hat.
+
+"Give me back my doll, Tom! That is not nice!" Mia says.
+
+Mia reaches for her doll, but Tom is stronger. He holds the doll away from Mia and pulls on the zip of her dress. The zip breaks and the dress falls off.
+
+"Ha ha, your doll is naked!" Tom says.
+
+Mia feels very sad and mad. She wants to make Tom stop. She pinches Tom hard on his arm.
+
+"Ow, that hurts!" Tom says.
+
+He drops the doll and rubs his arm. He sees a red mark where Mia pinched him.
+
+"Why did you pinch me, Mia? That is not nice!" Tom says.
+
+Mia picks up her doll and hugs her. She puts the dress back on her doll and fixes the zip.
+
+"Because you were mean to me and my doll. You broke her zip and made her naked. You should say sorry, Tom," Mia says.
+
+Tom feels a little sorry. He knows he was mean to Mia and her doll. He does not like to be pinched.
+
+"Sorry, Mia. Sorry, doll. I will not do that again. Can we play nice?" Tom says.
+
+Mia thinks for a moment. She still feels a little angry, but she also wants to play with Tom.
+
+"Okay, Tom. We can play nice. But you have to be careful with my doll. She is not a truck," Mia says.
+
+Tom nods. He picks up his truck and drives it away from the doll. He makes loud noises, but not too loud. He does not bump into the doll.
+
+Mia smiles. She puts the hat back on her doll and makes her dance. She does not pinch Tom.
+
+They play nice until their mom calls them for lunch.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump on the grass. They also liked to hide behind the trees and bushes. They pretended they were spies and had to find each other.
+
+"Where are you, Lily?" Tom shouted. He looked around, but he could not see his sister. He heard a giggle from behind a big bush. He ran towards it and tried to catch Lily.
+
+"Got you!" he said, as he grabbed her arm. But Lily was too quick. She slipped out of his hand and ran away. She laughed and stuck out her tongue.
+
+"Ha ha, you can't catch me!" she said. She ran towards the fence, where there was a small hole. She wanted to see what was on the other side.
+
+But Tom knew that was a bad idea. Their mom had told them not to go near the fence. She said there was a mean dog on the other side, and he would bite them if they got too close. Tom was scared of the dog. He did not want Lily to get hurt.
+
+"Lily, stop!" he shouted. "Don't go there! Mom will punish us if she sees us!"
+
+But Lily did not listen. She was curious and brave. She crawled through the hole and peeked at the other side. She saw a big yard with a lot of toys and a swing. She also saw a big dog, sleeping on the grass. He looked friendly and fluffy. She wanted to pet him.
+
+"Come on, Tom!" she said. "There's nothing to be afraid of! Look at the dog, he's so cute!"
+
+Tom did not think the dog was cute. He thought the dog was dangerous. He also did not want to disobey their mom. He stayed on their side of the fence and called Lily.
+
+"Lily, come back!" he said. "The dog might wake up and chase us! Mom will be angry if she finds out!"
+
+But Lily did not come back. She crawled closer to the dog and reached out her hand. She wanted to touch his fur. She did not see the dog open his eyes and growl. She did not hear Tom scream. She only felt the dog bite her hand and make her cry. She was in pain and in trouble. She wished she had listened to Tom. She wished she had stayed on the grass.
+Sam liked to fix things. He had a box of tools and some old toys that he could take apart and put back together. He wanted to be like his dad, who worked at a shop and fixed cars and bikes.
+
+One day, Sam found a broken doll in the trash. It had no hair, one eye, and a ripped dress. Sam thought he could fix it and make it look normal. He took it to his room and got his tools. He used some glue to stick a button for the eye, some yarn for the hair, and some cloth for the dress. He was very proud of his work.
+
+He showed the doll to his mom and dad. They smiled and hugged him. They said he did a good job and he was very clever. They asked him what he wanted to name the doll. Sam thought for a moment and said, "Fixie". He said it was a good name for a doll that he fixed. His mom and dad agreed. They said he could keep Fixie and play with her.
+
+Sam was very happy. He had a new friend and a new toy. He took Fixie to his bed and cuddled with her. He told her stories and sang her songs. He said he would always fix her if she got broken again. Fixie smiled with her button eye and nodded. She was happy too. She had a new friend and a new home.
+Lily liked to imagine that she was a princess in a castle. She had a pink dress, a shiny crown and a friendly dragon. She played with her toys and pretended that they were her royal friends.
+
+One day, her mom said, "Lily, it's time to go to the park. Put on your coat and shoes, please."
+
+Lily did not want to stop playing. She said, "But mom, I'm having fun. Can I stay a little longer?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "No, sweetie, we have to go now. You can play again when we come back. Maybe you can imagine something new at the park."
+
+Lily sighed and put on her coat and shoes. She took her dragon toy with her. She hoped that the park would be fun too.
+
+When they got to the park, Lily saw an enormous slide. It was taller than her mom and dad. It had a spiral shape and a bright color. Lily's eyes widened. She said, "Wow, mom, look at that slide. It's so big and pretty. Can I go on it?"
+
+Mom nodded and said, "Sure, honey, but be careful. Hold on tight and don't go too fast."
+
+Lily ran to the slide and climbed up the steps. She felt excited and nervous. She imagined that she was a princess on a magic tower. She held her dragon toy and said, "Are you ready, dragon? Let's go!"
+
+She slid down the slide and felt the wind in her hair. She laughed and shouted, "Whee! This is fun!"
+
+She reached the bottom and jumped off. She looked up at the slide and said, "That was amazing, mom. Can I go again?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can, Lily. You're very brave and adventurous. I'm proud of you."
+
+Lily hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. And I love to imagine."
+Sara and Ben were on vacation with their mom and dad. They went to a big park with many animals. Sara liked the animals, but Ben was ignorant. He did not care about them. He only wanted to play with his toy car.
+
+"Look, Sara, a lion!" mom said, pointing to a big, yellow cat with a mane.
+
+"Wow, it's so pretty!" Sara said, clapping her hands.
+
+"Who cares?" Ben said, rolling his toy car on the ground. "I have a better car than that."
+
+"Ben, be nice," dad said. "The animals are amazing. You should learn about them."
+
+"No, I don't want to," Ben said, making his car go faster.
+
+He did not see a hole in the ground. His car fell into the hole and he could not reach it.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben cried. "My car is gone!"
+
+Sara and mom and dad ran to him. They saw the hole and the car.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," dad said. "We can't get your car. It's too deep."
+
+Ben was very sad and angry. He blamed Sara.
+
+"It's your fault!" he shouted. "You made me come here. You made me lose my car. I hate you!"
+
+He pushed Sara and she fell down. She hit her head on a rock and started to bleed.
+
+"Stop, stop!" mom screamed. "What are you doing, Ben? You hurt your sister!"
+
+She picked up Sara and hugged her. Sara was crying and bleeding.
+
+"Mommy, it hurts!" she sobbed.
+
+Mom and dad took Sara to the hospital. Ben had to stay with a stranger. He was scared and lonely. He wished he had his car. He wished he had his sister. He wished he was not ignorant. But it was too late. He had ruined his vacation and his family. He was very sorry, but nobody heard him.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and draw pictures. One day, they find a big envelope on the table. It has a stamp and a sticker that says "mail".
+
+"Look, Ben, mail!" Anna says. "Maybe it is for us!"
+
+Ben shakes his head. "No, Anna, it is for Mom and Dad. See, it has their names on it. We cannot open it."
+
+Anna feels curious. She wants to see what is inside the envelope. She thinks it might be a surprise or a gift. She does not listen to Ben. She takes the envelope and tears it open.
+
+"Anna, no!" Ben cries. "You are being bad! You are breaking the mail!"
+
+Anna pulls out a paper from the envelope. It has many words and numbers on it. She does not understand it. She thinks it is boring. She crumples it and throws it away.
+
+"Ha, ha, Ben, it is not a surprise or a gift. It is just a paper. It is not fun. You are silly," Anna says.
+
+Ben feels angry and sad. He picks up the paper and tries to smooth it. He sees that it is a check. A check is money that Mom and Dad need to pay for things. He knows that Mom and Dad work hard to earn money. He knows that breaking the mail is wrong.
+
+"Anna, you are being mean! You are hurting Mom and Dad! They need this money. They will be mad and sad when they see what you did. You should say sorry," Ben says.
+
+Anna feels scared and ashamed. She sees that Ben is right. She sees that she made a big mistake. She wishes she listened to Ben. She does not want to hurt Mom and Dad. She does not want to be mean.
+
+"Ben, I am sorry. I am sorry I broke the mail. I am sorry I hurt Mom and Dad. I am sorry I did not listen to you. You are my twin. You are my friend. You are smart. Can you help me fix it?" Anna says.
+
+Ben feels happy and proud. He sees that Anna is sorry. He sees that she wants to be good. He is her twin. He is her friend. He is kind. He hugs her and says, "It is okay, Anna. I am sorry I yelled at you. I love you. We can fix it together. We can tape the paper and put it back in the envelope. We can write a note to Mom and Dad and say sorry. We can learn from our mistake. We can be better twins."
+
+Anna and Ben smile and hug. They work together to fix the mail. They write a note to Mom and Dad and say sorry. They put the envelope on the table. They hope Mom and Dad will forgive them. They learn a lesson. They learn to respect the mail. They learn to listen to each other. They learn to say sorry when they are wrong. They learn to be better twins.
+One day, a fisherman went to the big water to catch some fish. He had a boat, a net and a bucket. He wanted to fill his bucket with fish for his family. He sailed his boat far from the land, where the fish were big and many.
+
+He threw his net into the water and waited. Soon, he felt a tug on his net. He pulled it up and saw a lot of fish in his net. He was happy and put them in his bucket. He threw his net again and again, until his bucket was full. He said, "I am done. I have enough fish. I will go back to the land now."
+
+But when he tried to start his boat, it did not work. He pushed a button, but nothing happened. He looked at his boat and saw a hole. Water was coming in. He was worried. He said, "Oh no! My boat is broken. How will I go back to the land? How will I take my fish to my family?"
+
+He looked around and saw no other boats. He was alone in the big water. He was scared. He said, "Help! Help! Is anyone there? Can anyone hear me?"
+
+He did not know what to do. He hoped someone would come and save him. He hoped he would not sink. He hoped he would see his family again. He hoped he would finish his day well.
+Lily was a clumsy girl. She often dropped things and bumped into things. She liked to play with her dolls, but sometimes she broke them by accident. She felt sad when that happened.
+
+One day, she saw a shiny red pill on the table. She wondered what it was. She picked it up and looked at it. It was round and smooth and had a letter on it. She thought it was a candy.
+
+She heard her mom call her name. "Lily, where are you? It's time for lunch!"
+
+Lily wanted to hide the pill. She did not want to share it with her mom. She thought it belonged to her. She put it in her mouth and ran to the kitchen.
+
+"Hi, mom!" she said with a smile.
+
+Her mom saw her and gasped. "Lily, what did you do? Did you eat something from the table?"
+
+Lily nodded. She felt a funny feeling in her tummy. She did not like it.
+
+"Lily, that was not a candy. That was a pill. A pill for daddy. He needs it for his heart. You should not eat it. It can make you very sick."
+
+Lily's mom grabbed the phone and dialed a number. She sounded scared. She said, "Help, my daughter ate a pill. She needs a doctor. Please hurry!"
+
+Lily felt more and more sick. She started to cry. She wished she did not eat the pill. She wished she listened to her mom. She wished she was not so clumsy.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Tom had a jet that made noises and lights. Lily had a doll that could talk and sing. They were having fun, but they also wanted to try each other's toys.
+
+"Can I play with your jet, Tom?" Lily asked. "It looks so cool and fast."
+
+"No, you can't," Tom said. "It's mine and it's not for girls. You can play with your fake doll."
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She did not like Tom's words. She thought her doll was not fake, but real and nice. She wanted to play with the jet, too.
+
+"Please, Tom, let me play with your jet for a little bit," Lily said. "I will let you play with my doll, too. She can say your name and sing a song for you."
+
+"No, no, no," Tom said. "I don't want your doll. She is boring and silly. I only want my jet. Go away, Lily."
+
+Lily could not take it anymore. She refused to play with Tom. She grabbed her doll and ran to her room. She slammed the door and cried. She did not want to be Tom's friend anymore.
+
+Tom was left alone with his jet. He played with it for a while, but he soon got bored. He missed Lily and her doll. He realized he was mean and rude to her. He felt sorry and lonely.
+
+He got up and went to Lily's room. He knocked on the door and said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I was wrong. You can play with my jet if you want. And I want to play with your doll, too. She is not fake, she is real and nice. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Lily heard Tom's voice and opened the door. She saw Tom holding his jet and smiling. She smiled back and hugged him. She forgave him and said, "Yes, Tom, we can be friends again. Thank you for saying sorry. Let's play together and share our toys."
+
+Tom and Lily went back to the living room. They played with the jet and the doll. They had fun and laughed. They learned to be kind and fair. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are friends who like to play at the park. They like to swing, climb and slide on the big slide. One day, they see a new slide at the park. It is very long and has a curve. It looks like a snake.
+
+"Wow, look at that slide!" Sara says. "It is so big and fun. Let's go slide on it."
+
+Ben nods and they run to the new slide. But when they get there, they see a line of children waiting to slide. Some of them are bigger and older than Sara and Ben.
+
+"Oh no, there are so many children," Ben says. "We have to wait a long time to slide."
+
+Sara and Ben join the line and wait. They watch the other children slide down the snake slide. They look happy and excited. Sara and Ben feel envious. They want to slide too.
+
+"Hey, look over there," Ben says. He points to another slide on the other side of the park. It is smaller and has no curve. It looks like a stick.
+
+"Nobody is sliding on that slide," Ben says. "Maybe we can go slide on it. It is still a slide."
+
+Sara looks at the stick slide. She shakes her head.
+
+"No, I don't want to slide on that slide," Sara says. "It is too small and boring. I want to slide on the snake slide. It is like an island. It is more fun."
+
+Ben looks at Sara. He feels sad. He likes the snake slide too, but he does not like to wait. He wants to slide now.
+
+"OK, you can wait for the snake slide," Ben says. "I will go slide on the stick slide. Maybe I will have fun too."
+
+Ben leaves the line and runs to the stick slide. He slides down once. He slides down twice. He slides down three times. He smiles. He likes the stick slide. It is fast and smooth. He does not have to wait.
+
+Sara sees Ben sliding on the stick slide. She sees him smiling. She feels envious. She wants to slide too. She does not want to wait anymore.
+
+"Hey, Ben, wait for me," Sara says. She leaves the line and runs to the stick slide. She slides down with Ben. She slides down once. She slides down twice. She slides down three times. She smiles. She likes the stick slide too. It is fun.
+
+Sara and Ben slide on the stick slide together. They laugh and giggle. They forget about the snake slide. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw some ice on the ground. It was shiny and white and hard.
+
+"Look, ice!" Tom said. "Let's touch it."
+
+They ran to the ice and put their hands on it. It was very cold and made their fingers hurt.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna said. "It's too cold. Let's go back."
+
+But Tom was curious. He wanted to know what ice tasted like. He broke a small piece and put it in his mouth.
+
+"Mmm, sweet!" Tom said. "It's like candy. Try some, Anna."
+
+Anna did not believe him. She thought he was joking. She shook her head.
+
+"No, thank you. I don't want to eat ice. It's not food. It's just water that is frozen."
+
+Tom shrugged. He liked the ice. He ate some more and smiled.
+
+"Suit yourself. I think it's yummy. But don't tell Mom. She might get mad."
+
+They played some more and then went home. Tom did not tell Mom about the ice. He kept it as a secret. He hoped to find some more ice the next day. He thought it was a sweet treat.
+Tim and his uncle went to the park. They saw many birds and flowers and swings. Tim liked to swing high and feel the wind. His uncle pushed him and smiled.
+
+But then the sky became dark and loud. Rain started to fall and thunder made noise. Tim was scared and wanted to go home. His uncle said, "Don't worry, Tim. We will go home soon. But first we have to remain here and wait for the rain to stop. It is not safe to run in the rain."
+
+Tim nodded and hugged his uncle. They found a big tree and sat under it. The tree kept them dry and warm. His uncle told him stories and jokes and made him laugh. Tim felt better and forgot his fear. He liked his uncle very much. He was kind and funny and brave.
+
+After a while, the rain stopped and the sun came out. The park became bright and beautiful again. Tim and his uncle got up and walked to the car. They saw a rainbow in the sky. Tim pointed and said, "Look, uncle! A rainbow! It is so pretty!" His uncle said, "Yes, Tim. It is very pretty. And you know what? A rainbow means that everything is fine. We had a good day, Tim. And we will have more good days together." Tim smiled and said, "I love you, uncle." His uncle said, "I love you too, Tim." And they drove home happily.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the park. They had a big ball that was soft and red. They liked to kick the ball and catch it and roll it on the grass.
+
+One day, they saw a big pond in the park. They wanted to see what was in the pond. They ran to the pond and looked at the water. They saw some fish and some frogs and some ducks. They also saw something big and green and scary. It was an alligator!
+
+The alligator saw the boys and opened its mouth. It wanted to eat them. Tim and Sam were very scared. They ran away from the pond. But they forgot their ball. The ball was near the pond. The alligator saw the ball and liked it. It took the ball in its mouth and swam away.
+
+Tim and Sam were sad. They wanted their ball back. They asked their mom for help. Their mom said, "You should not go near the pond. The pond is dangerous. The alligator lives there. You have to yield the ball to the alligator. You can get a new ball later."
+
+Tim and Sam learned their lesson. They never went near the pond again. They got a new ball that was soft and blue. They played with their ball in the park. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the park. One morning, they see mist on the grass and the trees. They think it is magic.
+
+"Look, Ben, mist!" Sara says. "It is like a soft cloud."
+
+"Can we touch it?" Ben asks. He runs to the grass and tries to catch the mist with his hands.
+
+Sara follows him. She laughs when she feels the mist on her face. It is wet and cold.
+
+They see a chubby bird on a branch. It has yellow feathers and a red beak. It sings a happy song.
+
+"Hello, bird!" Sara says. "You have a nice voice. Can we sing with you?"
+
+The bird nods and sings again. Sara and Ben try to copy the sound. They make funny noises with their mouths.
+
+The bird likes their singing. It flaps its wings and flies to another branch. It sings louder.
+
+Sara and Ben run after the bird. They sing louder too. They have fun in the mist.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to hop like bunnies and make funny noises. They saw a big bottle of lotion on the table. They were curious.
+
+"What is this?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Let's see." Ben said.
+
+They opened the bottle and squeezed some lotion on their hands. It was white and slippery. They rubbed it on their faces and arms. It felt cold and smooth.
+
+"Look, we are bunnies with white fur!" Lily said.
+
+They laughed and hopped around the garden. They felt happy and silly.
+
+But then, Mom came out. She saw them covered in lotion. She was not happy. She was angry.
+
+"What have you done?" Mom asked.
+
+They stopped hopping. They felt scared and embarrassed.
+
+"We were playing bunnies." Ben said.
+
+"That's not how you play bunnies. That's how you waste lotion. And make a mess. Come here, now." Mom said.
+
+She took them inside and cleaned them up. She scolded them and told them not to touch the lotion again. She said it was for her skin, not for their games.
+
+They said sorry and promised to behave. They felt bad and ashamed.
+
+They learned their lesson. They never played with lotion again. They found other ways to hop like bunnies. And they always asked Mom before they used anything.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. They see a big tree with many leaves. The tree makes a lot of shade on the ground.
+
+"Let's go to the shade," Sara says. "It is hot in the sun."
+
+"OK," Ben says. They run to the tree and sit under it. They feel cool and happy.
+
+They see a squirrel on the tree. The squirrel has a big nut in its mouth. It runs up and down the branches. It looks funny.
+
+"Look at the squirrel," Ben says. "It is so fast and silly."
+
+Sara laughs. She points at the squirrel. "It is funny, but it is also smart. It knows where to hide its nut."
+
+The squirrel pauses on a branch. It looks at Sara and Ben. It makes a noise like "chirp, chirp". It seems to say hello.
+
+"Hello, squirrel," Sara says. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The squirrel tilts its head. It thinks for a moment. Then it drops its nut and jumps to another branch. It runs away.
+
+"Bye, squirrel," Ben says. "Maybe next time."
+
+Sara and Ben smile. They stand up and go back to play. They have fun in the park.

+
+Lily is sad. She wants the teddy bear. She cries. Tom sees Lily cry. He feels sorry for her. He has some money in his pocket. He saved his money for a long time. He wants to buy a new car. But he likes Lily more than the car.

+
+One day, Tom finds a new crayon. It is big and shiny. It is gold. Tom wants to use the gold crayon. He says to Lily, "Look, I have a gold crayon. It is the best crayon. I will make a big mark on the wall."
+
+Lily says, "No, Tom, do not use the gold crayon. It is not for us. It is for Mom. She got it for her birthday. She will be mad if you use it."
+
+But Tom does not listen to Lily. He says, "I do not care. I want to use the gold crayon. It is mine now." He takes the gold crayon and runs to the wall. He tries to make a big mark on the wall.
+
+But the gold crayon is not a good crayon. It is hard and rough. It does not make a mark. It makes a scratch. It makes a noise. It breaks. The gold crayon is broken. Tom is sad. He says, "Oh no, the gold crayon is broken. What will I do?"
+
+Lily comes to Tom. She sees the broken crayon and the scratch on the wall. She says, "Tom, you were bad. You used the gold crayon. You broke it. You made a mess. Mom will be mad. You have to say sorry."
+
+Tom feels bad. He says, "I am sorry, Lily. I was bad. I used the gold crayon. I broke it. I made a mess. I will say sorry to Mom. I will not do it again."
+
+Lily says, "It is okay, Tom. I forgive you. But you have to be good. You have to share. You have to listen. You have to use the other crayons. They are good crayons. They make marks and symbols. They are fun."

+
+He reached for Lily's magnet. He tried to remove it from the fridge.
+
+But Lily's magnet was strong. It did not want to go. It stuck to the fridge.
+
+Sam pulled harder. He used both hands. He made a face. He was chubby and strong, but the magnet was stronger.
+
+"Hey, Sam, what are you doing?" Lily said. She saw Sam pulling her magnet. She did not like it. It was her magnet.
+
+She ran to the fridge. She pushed Sam away. She grabbed her magnet. She hugged it.
+
+"Sam, no! That's my magnet! You have your own magnet!" she said. She was angry and sad.
+
+Sam was angry and sad too. He wanted Lily's magnet. He did not want to share.

+
+They both glared at each other. They did not want to play anymore.

+They were not having fun.
+Tom and Sue were twins who liked to play in the attic. They found many old things there, like hats, books, and toys. One day, they saw a big trunk in the corner. It was locked with a key.
+
+"Let's open it and see what's inside," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe we should ask Mom first," Sue said. She was polite and did not want to make trouble.
+
+"No, it's more fun to find out by ourselves," Tom said. He was curious and did not like to wait.
+
+He looked around and saw a key on a hook. He took it and ran to the trunk. He put the key in the lock and turned it. The trunk opened with a creak.
+
+Tom and Sue gasped. Inside the trunk, there was a big snake. It was green and scaly, and it had red eyes. It hissed and coiled up, ready to strike.
+
+"Help!" Tom and Sue screamed. They were scared and wanted to run away.
+
+But they could not move. The snake was too fast. It jumped out of the trunk and wrapped itself around them. They felt its cold skin and sharp teeth.
+
+The snake was hungry and angry. It had been locked in the trunk for a long time. It did not like to be disturbed.
+
+It was about to eat Tom and Sue, when they heard a loud bang. It was Mom. She had heard their screams and came to the attic. She saw the snake and the trunk and the key. She knew what had happened.
+
+She grabbed a broom and hit the snake hard. The snake let go of Tom and Sue and slithered back into the trunk. Mom locked the trunk and threw the key away.
+
+She hugged Tom and Sue and said, "Are you okay, my darlings? I'm so sorry. I should have told you about the trunk. It belonged to your great-grandpa, who was a snake charmer. He brought it from a faraway land, but he forgot to take the snake out. It was very dangerous. You should never open it again."
+
+Tom and Sue nodded and said, "We're sorry, Mom. We should have listened to you. We won't open it again."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you're safe. Now let's go downstairs and have some cookies. And next time, be polite and ask before you touch anything."
+
+Tom and Sue agreed and followed Mom. They learned their lesson. They never played in the attic again.
+Sam loves to play with his cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He likes to make them speed on the floor and make noises. Vroom, vroom, vroom!
+
+One day, he finds a new car in his toy box. It is red and shiny and has a big number one on it. Sam thinks it is the best car ever. He picks it up and says, "Hello, car. You are my hero. You are so fast and cool. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The car does not answer, but Sam does not mind. He puts it on the floor and makes it speed with his other cars. He pretends that the car is racing and winning. He cheers for it and claps his hands. "Go, go, go, hero car! You are the fastest!"
+
+But then, Sam sees a problem. His hero car is going too fast. It is speeding towards the wall. Sam tries to stop it, but it is too late. The car hits the wall and falls down. Sam hears a loud crash and sees a dent on the car. He feels sad and scared. He runs to the car and picks it up. He says, "Oh no, hero car! Are you okay? Did you get hurt?"
+
+The car does not answer, but Sam feels something. The car is still warm and smooth in his hand. He sees that the dent is not very big. He rubs it gently and says, "I'm sorry, hero car. I did not mean to make you crash. You are still my hero. You are still fast and cool. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The car does not answer, but Sam thinks he hears a beep. He smiles and hugs the car. He says, "I love you, hero car. You are my friend. Let's play again, but not so fast. Okay?"
+
+The car does not answer, but Sam thinks he feels a vroom. He puts the car on the floor and makes it speed with his other cars. He watches it carefully and says, "Good job, hero car! You are the best!"
+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They saw a big jar of butter on the counter. They wanted to use it for their cake.
+
+"Let's start to make the cake," Lily said. "We need butter and eggs and flour and sugar."
+
+"OK," Tom said. "I will get the butter. You get the eggs."
+
+Tom climbed on a chair and reached for the butter. But the jar was too heavy and slippery. It fell from his hand and crashed on the floor. Butter splashed everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom cried. "We made a big mess!"
+
+Lily heard the noise and ran to see what happened. She saw butter on the floor, on the walls, on the chair, and on Tom. She felt nervous. What if Mom saw this?
+
+"Don't cry, Tom," Lily said. "We can clean it up. Here, take this towel and wipe the butter."
+
+"OK," Tom said. He took the towel and tried to wipe the butter. But it was hard to get it off. It was sticky and greasy.
+
+They heard Mom coming. They looked at each other and hoped she would not be mad. They knew they should not have played with the butter. They learned their lesson. Next time, they would ask Mom for help.
+Lily loved to play with her tray. She had many toys on it, like a ball, a car, a doll and a book. She liked to make noises and stories with them. She also liked to share her tray with her friend Ben, who lived next door.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben were playing with the tray in the garden. They saw a big, black bug crawling on the grass. It had many legs and a shiny shell. Lily was scared of the bug. She screamed and ran away. Ben was curious. He picked up the bug and put it on the tray.
+
+"Look, Lily, it's a harmless bug. It won't hurt you. It's just a beetle. Do you want to see it?" Ben said.
+
+Lily stopped running and looked at the tray. She saw the bug moving on the tray. She felt a little brave. She walked closer to the tray and Ben.
+
+"Are you sure it's harmless?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, I'm sure. It's just a bug. It's not a monster. It's like a toy. See, it can roll over and play dead." Ben said. He gently tapped the bug and it flipped on its back. Then it wiggled its legs and flipped back.
+
+Lily laughed. She thought the bug was funny. She touched the bug with her finger. It tickled her. She smiled.
+
+"Maybe it's not so bad. Maybe it's a friendly bug. Can I play with it?" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, you can play with it. We can share the tray and the bug. We can be friends with the bug. We can love the bug." Ben said.
+
+Lily and Ben played with the tray and the bug. They made noises and stories with them. They had fun. They were happy. They loved the tray and the bug.
+Lily and Ben were making a cake with Mom. They liked to help Mom in the kitchen. They had eggs, flour, sugar, and butter. Mom said they needed to stir the butter until it was soft.
+
+Lily took a big spoon and started to stir the butter in a bowl. She stirred and stirred, but the butter was still hard. She tried to use her hands, but the butter was cold and sticky. She did not like the butter.
+
+"Mom, I don't want to stir the butter. It is hard and cold and sticky. Can I do something else?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You can crack the eggs, Lily. Be careful not to drop them. Ben, can you help Lily with the eggs?"
+
+Ben nodded and took an egg from the carton. He tapped it on the edge of another bowl. The egg cracked and the yolk and the white came out. Ben was happy. He liked to crack the eggs.
+
+Lily took another egg and tried to do the same. But she tapped too hard and the egg broke in her hand. The yolk and the white spilled on the table and on her dress. Lily was sad. She did not like the eggs.
+
+"Mom, I don't want to crack the eggs. They are messy and wet and slimy. Can I do something else?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom wiped the table and Lily's dress with a cloth. She said, "You can measure the sugar, Lily. Be careful not to spill it. Ben, can you help Lily with the sugar?"
+
