+She puts her poems in a big folder and goes to the living room. She sees her mom and dad on the couch. They are watching TV. Sara wants them to look at her poems. She says, "Mom, dad, look at my poems!"
+
+But mom and dad do not hear her. They are too busy watching TV. Sara feels sad and angry. She wants them to pay attention to her. She decides to push the TV. She thinks that will make them look at her poems.
+
+She goes to the TV and pushes it hard. The TV falls off the table and breaks. It makes a loud noise. Mom and dad jump up and scream. They see the broken TV and Sara. They are very mad. They say, "Sara, what did you do? Why did you push the TV? That was very bad!"
+
+Sara starts to cry. She says, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just wanted you to look at my poems. I worked very hard on them. Please look at my poems!"
+
+Mom and dad see the folder in Sara's hand. They see the tears in Sara's eyes. They feel sorry for Sara. They say, "We're sorry, Sara, we didn't mean to ignore you. We're sure your poems are very nice. Can we see them?"
+
+Sara nods and wipes her eyes. She opens the folder and shows them her poems. Mom and dad smile and hug her. They say, "Your poems are very pretty and fun, Sara. You are very smart and creative. We are very proud of you."
+
+Sara feels happy and loved. She says, "Thank you, mom and dad. I love you. Can we fix the TV?"
+
+Mom and dad laugh and say, "Yes, we can fix the TV. But next time, please don't push it. Just ask us nicely to look at your poems. We will always listen to you."
+
+Sara says, "OK, I will. I'm sorry I pushed the TV. I won't do it again."
+
+They all hug and kiss and look at Sara's poems together. They have a good time. Sara learns a lesson. She learns that pushing is not a good way to get attention. She learns that asking nicely is better. She learns that mom and dad love her and her poems. She is a happy girl. The end.
+Tom and Lily were playing with marbles in the park. They had many marbles of different colors and sizes. They liked to roll them on the ground and see who could get the most.
+
+But then a big boy came and saw their marbles. He wanted to take them for himself. He was rude and mean. He said, "Give me your marbles or I will hit you!"
+
+Tom and Lily were scared of the big boy. They did not want to fight or get hurt. They thought they had to surrender their marbles to him. They said, "Please don't hit us. You can have our marbles."
+
+But then a man saw what was happening. He was a policeman. He came and stopped the big boy. He said, "What are you doing? You can't take their marbles. That is not nice. That is stealing. You have to give them back and say sorry."
+
+The big boy was ashamed and afraid. He gave back the marbles and said sorry. He ran away. The policeman smiled and said, "You did the right thing. You were brave and kind. You don't have to surrender to bullies. You can ask for help. Here, have some more marbles as a reward."
+
+Tom and Lily thanked the policeman and hugged him. They were happy and proud. They learned that it is good to share and be fair. They also learned that it is bad to be rude and steal. They played with their marbles and their new friends. They had fun.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to share and take turns with their toys. They were polite and kind to each other.
+
+"Can I have the truck, please?" Tom asked Lily.
+
+"Sure, you can have the truck. Can I have the doll, please?" Lily asked Tom.
+
+"Of course, you can have the doll. Thank you for the truck," Tom said.
+
+They smiled and continued to play. Their mom watched them from the kitchen. She was happy to see them get along so well. She felt peace in her heart.
+
+She decided to make them a snack. She got some apples and cheese from the fridge. She cut them into small pieces and put them on a plate. She brought the plate to the living room.
+
+"Look, kids, I have a snack for you. Do you want some?" she said.
+
+"Yes, please, mom. We are hungry," Tom and Lily said.
+
+They ran to the table and sat down. They each took a piece of apple and cheese. They thanked their mom for the snack.
+
+"You're welcome, my loves. You are such good children. You remind me of how I used to play with my sister when I was little. We were polite and kind to each other, too," she said.
+
+She hugged them and kissed them on their cheeks. They hugged her back and kissed her on her nose. They laughed and ate their snack. They were happy and loved.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were pirates and chefs. Lily wore a big hat and a spoon for a sword. Tom wore a bandana and a spatula for a sword. They made loud noises and chased each other around the table.
+
+"Arrr, you can't catch me, you scurvy dog!" Lily shouted.
+
+"Oh yes I can, you lily-livered landlubber!" Tom shouted back.
+
+They ran and jumped and swung their swords. They had a lot of fun. But they did not see the jar of jam on the counter. It was red and sticky and sweet. It was their mom's favorite jam. She made it herself from the berries in the garden. She was very proud of it. She told them not to touch it.
+
+But as Lily and Tom were playing, they bumped into the counter. The jar of jam wobbled and tipped over. It fell to the floor with a loud crash. The jam splattered everywhere. It stained the tiles and the rug and the chairs. It even got on Lily and Tom's clothes and faces.
+
+Lily and Tom stopped playing. They looked at the mess. They looked at each other. They were very worried. They knew their mom would be very angry. They heard her footsteps coming down the hall.
+
+"What was that noise?" their mom asked.
+
+Lily and Tom did not know what to say. They were scared. They thought of hiding or running away. But they knew that would not help. They knew they had to face their mom. They knew they had to say sorry. They knew they had to surrender.
+
+They dropped their swords and took off their hats and bandanas. They held each other's hands. They looked at their mom with big eyes.
+
+"Mom, we're sorry," they said together. "We broke your jam."
+
+Their mom saw the mess. She saw the jam. She saw their faces. She was very angry. But she was also very sad. She loved her jam. She loved her children. She sighed and shook her head.
+
+"Come here, you two," she said. "Let's clean this up."
+Lily liked to slide on the big slide at the park. She went up the steps and sat on the top. She looked down and saw her mom and dad smiling at her. She waved and said, "Watch me, watch me!"
+
+She pushed herself and slid down fast. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She was happy and laughed. But when she got to the bottom, she felt something pull her back. She looked and saw that her dress was stuck on a hook. She tried to get free, but she could not. She said, "Help, help!"
+
+Her mom and dad heard her and ran to her. They saw the hook and said, "Oh no, how did that happen?" They lifted her up and unhooked her dress. They hugged her and said, "Are you okay, Lily?" Lily nodded and said, "I'm okay, but my dress is not. It has a hole now."
+
+Her mom and dad looked at her dress and said, "That's okay, we can fix it later. It's just a dress, not a big deal. You are more important than a dress." They kissed her and said, "You are brave and smart, Lily. You did not cry or panic. You asked for help."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom and dad. I love you." She looked at the slide and said, "Can I slide again?" Her mom and dad said, "Of course, you can. But be careful, and avoid the hook. It's a silly hook, it likes to catch dresses." They laughed and walked with her to the slide. Lily slid again and again, and had fun. She did not get stuck again. She learned to watch out for the hook. She was happy. The end.
+Tom is a big dog. He likes to work on the farm with his friend Sam. Sam is a farmer. He has cows, sheep, chickens and pigs. Tom helps Sam with the animals. He barks at the cows, runs with the sheep, watches the chickens and plays with the pigs. Tom is happy when he works.
+
+One day, the sky is gray. It is cold and wet. Sam says, "Tom, we cannot work today. It is raining too much. We have to stay inside the house." Tom does not like the house. It is small and boring. He cannot see the animals. He cannot run or bark or play. He only has a ball and a bone. Tom is sad.
+
+Tom tries to have fun with the ball and the bone. He rolls the ball on the floor. He chews the bone. But he is not happy. He misses the farm. He misses the animals. He misses Sam. He looks out the window. He sees the gray sky. He sighs.
+
+Then, he hears a noise. It is Sam. He says, "Tom, come here. I have a surprise for you." Tom runs to Sam. He sees a big box. Sam opens the box. Tom looks inside. He sees a puppy. The puppy is brown and white. It has big ears and a wagging tail. It barks at Tom. Tom barks back. He is surprised.
+
+Sam says, "Tom, this is your new friend. His name is Max. He is a farm dog, like you. He will work with you and play with you. He will keep you company. He will make you happy." Tom sniffs Max. Max licks Tom. They wag their tails. They run around the house. They play with the ball and the bone. They are happy.
+
+The sky is still gray. It is still cold and wet. But Tom does not care. He has a new friend. He has Max. He is not sad anymore. He is happy.
+Lily likes to write. She has a big book with many pages. She writes her name, her brother's name, and some words she knows. She draws pictures of her family, her toys, and her pets. She is cheerful when she writes.
+
+One day, her brother Max comes to her room. He sees her book on the floor. He picks it up and looks at it. He laughs. He says, "Lily, this is not writing. This is scribble. You do not know how to write. You are silly."
+
+Lily feels sad. She does not like Max's words. She says, "No, Max. This is my writing. I am not silly. You are mean. Give me back my book."
+
+Max does not listen. He runs away with her book. He says, "I will show this to Mom and Dad. They will see how funny you are."
+
+Lily chases him. She wants her book. She cries, "Stop, Max. Stop. That is mine. That is not funny. That is mean."
+
+Mom and Dad hear them. They come to see what is wrong. They see Max with Lily's book. They see Lily crying. They ask, "What is going on? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Max says, "Look, Mom and Dad. Look at Lily's book. She thinks this is writing. She is so silly. Ha ha ha."
+
+Mom and Dad look at Lily's book. They do not laugh. They say, "Max, this is not nice. This is Lily's book. She is learning to write. She is not silly. She is smart. You should not take her book. You should not make fun of her. You should say sorry."
+
+Max feels bad. He sees Lily's sad face. He says, "Sorry, Lily. I was wrong. I was mean. Your book is good. You can write. You are not silly. You are smart."
+
+Lily smiles. She says, "Thank you, Max. I forgive you. You can look at my book. But please be careful. Do not rip it. Do not lose it. It is my book."
+
+Max nods. He says, "OK, Lily. I will be careful. I will not rip it. I will not lose it. It is your book."
+
+Mom and Dad hug them. They say, "We are proud of you. You are good brother and sister. You can share your book. You can help each other to write. You can be cheerful together."
+Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to play together, share their toys and help each other. They also liked to talk about what they wanted to be when they grew up. Lily wanted to be a doctor, because she was smart and liked to make people feel better. Max wanted to be a teacher, because he was smart and liked to help people learn.
+
+One day, they decided to play pretend. They pretended that they were grown-ups and that they were married. They wore their parents' clothes and rings and said nice things to each other. They also pretended that they had a big house and a car and a dog. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Lily's mom came to pick her up. She saw them playing and smiled. She said, "You two are so cute. Do you want to marry each other when you grow up?" Lily and Max looked at each other and nodded. They thought that was a good idea. They liked each other a lot and they had the same opinion about many things.
+
+Lily's mom said, "Well, that's very sweet. But you know, you don't have to decide that now. You have a lot of time to grow up and meet new people and change your mind. Maybe you will find someone else who makes you happy. Or maybe you will still want to marry each other. The important thing is to follow your heart and do what makes you happy."
+
+Lily and Max listened to Lily's mom. They thought she was smart and kind. They hugged each other and said goodbye. They agreed that they would always be friends, no matter what. They also agreed that they would keep playing pretend, because it was fun. And maybe, just maybe, they would marry each other when they grew up. But they didn't have to decide that now. They had a lot of time.
+Tom and Sue were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pile of mud. It looked fun.
+
+"Let's make mud pies!" Sue said.
+
+"OK!" Tom said.
+
+They ran to the mud and started to shape it with their hands. They made round pies and put them on a tray. They pretended to bake them in the sun.
+
+"Who wants a mud pie?" Sue asked.
+
+"I do!" Tom said.
+
+They took a mud pie each and pretended to eat it. They made funny faces and noises.
+
+"Mmm, delicious!" Sue said.
+
+"Yuck, gross!" Tom said.
+
+They laughed and made more mud pies. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, a big boy came. He was mean. He saw their mud pies and kicked them.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Tom said.
+
+"Your mud pies are cheap and ugly!" the big boy said. "You are cheap and ugly too!"
+
+He kicked more mud pies and laughed. He made Tom and Sue sad and angry.
+
+"Go away!" Sue said.
+
+"No, you go away!" the big boy said. "This is my park!"
+
+He pushed Sue and made her fall. She hurt her knee and cried.
+
+Tom was brave. He stood up to the big boy.
+
+"Leave us alone!" Tom said. "You are mean and rude!"
+
+He threw a mud pie at the big boy. It hit him in the face. He was surprised and angry.
+
+He wiped the mud off his face and glared at Tom.
+
+"You'll pay for that!" he said.
+
+He ran towards Tom and tried to hit him. But Tom dodged and threw another mud pie. It hit him in the chest. He was covered in mud.
+
+He stopped and looked at himself. He felt silly and ashamed.
+
+He realized he was wrong. He decided to accept his mistake and say sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry," he said. "I was mean and rude. Can we be friends?"
+
+Tom and Sue looked at him. They were still sad and angry, but they were also kind and forgiving.
+
+They decided to accept his apology and give him a chance.
+
+"OK," they said. "We can be friends. But you have to be nice and share."
+
+"OK," he said. "I will be nice and share. Can I have a mud pie?"
+
+They smiled and nodded. They gave him a mud pie and taught him how to make them.
+
+They played together in the mud and had fun. They became friends.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play together. They also like to eat muffins. Muffins are sweet and soft.
+
+One day, Ben and Lily go to the park. They see a big table with many muffins on it. The muffins are for a party. Ben and Lily want some muffins. They are hungry.
+
+"Look, Lily, muffins!" Ben says. "Let's take some. No one will see us."
+
+"No, Ben, that is bad. The muffins are not for us. They are for the party. We have to ask first." Lily says.
+
+"But I want a muffin. They look so good. And they smell so good. And they are so rich. I bet they have chocolate and nuts and berries in them." Ben says.
+
+Ben and Lily go to the table. They see a lady. She is busy. She is trying to organize the muffins. She wants to make them look nice. She has a big smile.
+

+Anna loved flowers. She liked to smell them, touch them, and look at their colors. She had a small garden in her backyard, where she planted seeds and watered them every day. She hoped they would grow and bloom soon.
+
+One day, she saw a big red flower in her garden. It was bigger and brighter than any other flower she had ever seen. She ran to it and smiled. "Wow, you are so pretty!" she said to the flower. "Can I pick you and put you in a vase?"
+
+But the flower did not answer. Instead, it opened its mouth and showed its teeth. They were sharp and shiny, like leather. The flower growled and snapped at Anna. "No, you can't pick me!" it said. "I am not a flower, I am a monster! And I am hungry!"
+
+Anna was scared. She screamed and ran away from the flower. She looked for her mom, who was inside the house. She found her in the kitchen and hugged her. "Mom, mom, there is a monster in the garden!" she cried. "It looks like a red flower, but it has teeth and it wants to eat me!"
+
+Her mom was surprised. She did not believe Anna at first. She thought she was making up a story. But she saw how scared Anna was, and decided to check the garden. She took Anna by the hand and walked outside. She saw the red flower, and heard it growl.
+
+Her mom was shocked. She realized that Anna was telling the truth. She did not know how the flower got there, or what it was. She grabbed a shovel and swung it at the flower. The flower dodged and bit the shovel. It made a loud noise and spit out metal.
+
+Her mom was brave. She did not give up. She swung the shovel again and again, until she hit the flower on the head. The flower fell down and stopped moving. It was dead.
+
+Her mom was relieved. She hugged Anna and said, "Don't worry, sweetie, it's over. The monster is gone. You are safe."
+
+Anna was happy. She hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom, you are the best. You saved me and the garden."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, honey. I love you and the garden. But let's not plant any more red seeds, okay?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I only want nice flowers, not monsters."
+
+They went back to the house and threw away the red seeds. They never saw the red flower again. The next day, they saw that the other flowers had bloomed. They were yellow, pink, purple, and blue. They were beautiful and friendly. Anna and her mom picked some and put them in a vase. They smelled good and made them happy. They lived happily ever after.
+Once upon a time, there was a girl called Sarah. She was three years old and loved to explore outside. One day, she was wandering through the field when she noticed a small celery plant.
+
+"Ooh, what is this?" She said curiously.
+
+A small rabbit hopped up to her. "That's celery," it said.
+
+"I want to try it," said Sarah. 
+
+The rabbit shook its head. "It looks strange and it tastes disgusting," it warned. 
+
+But Sarah was determined to try it. She stopped and carefully plucked the small plant from the ground. She nibbled it experimentally. Sure enough, it was disgusting! She quickly spat it out and grinned sheepishly.
+
+Finally, she stopped trying out strange things from the field. She had learned her lesson - delicious things really do taste much better than disgusting ones!

+
+As they kept walking, Tommy heard a noise from the woods ahead of them. He looked closer and saw that it was the same bunny! He was so shocked and ran towards it. But then the bunny ran away again, hopping away before Tommy could recognize it. 
+
+Tommy's mom came closer and looked at the bunny. She smiled and said, "I think we've seen this bunny before". She then explained to Tommy that this was the same bunny they had seen earlier. A little recognition dawned on Tommy and he smiled. He knew they could find the bunny again.

+
+Lucy was so delighted. She handed the little dragon the key and it started to snap open the door. Snappy gave her a hug and flew away.

+John was so tired. He had been playing all day, and he was ready to take a rest. He lay down on the couch, and closed his eyes. 
+
+"John!" cried his mother, "It's time to dry the lamp!"
+

+
+The man said to his son, "It's time to write. What do you see?"
+
+The son replied, "I see the sunset, it's so beautiful!"
+
+The man said, "Let's write it down so we can remember it forever."
+
+The son grabbed some paper and a pen and wrote down everything he saw. When he was done, he looked up and said, "The sunset looks so different when I write it down."
+
+The man smiled and said, "Yes, it does. Writing is a magical thing! We can keep the sunset with us forever now."

+One day, Ryan was playing in the park with his favourite toys and his dog Hank. He could hear music coming from the nearby lake. He looked over and saw two people dressed up and standing near a big cone. He wondered what they were doing and Hank followed him as he ran towards them. He heard the two people say they were getting married. They were happy and holding hands.
+
+The couple was smiling and Ryan wanted to join in the fun. He saw them grab a smelly cone off the ground and hug it. Ryan also wanted a hug, so he ran and grabbed the cone, but the couple pushed him away. They said it was special and took it away from him.
+
+Ryan felt sad, but suddenly he remembered something. He remembered his mom telling him that when two people marry, they get to hug each other forever. Ryan thought it was nice, so he asked the couple if he could have a hug. The couple said no and kept the cone.
+
+Ryan felt really bad, but now he understood why the couple wanted to marry. The smelly cone was actually their special way of hugging each other forever. Ryan smiled and he and Hank walked away.
+Once there was an alert little girl named Rose. She was always very observant, paying attention to all the details around her. One day she was playing in her room when she noticed that her old rag doll was looking a bit worn out. As she examined the doll more closely, she noticed that some of the stitching was coming apart.
+
+Rose’s mom walked into the room and saw Rose playing with the doll.
+
+“What’s wrong, Rose?†her mom asked.
+
+“My doll is broken,†said Rose.
+
+“It’s not really broken, but it needs some work,†said her mom. “Maybe you could help me fix it?â€
+
+“Yes!†said Rose excitedly.
+
+So, Rose and her mom worked together to fix the doll, and as they worked Rose’s mom taught her how to sew and patch the doll back up. When they were finished, Rose was proud to have completed something all by herself.
+
+The moral of this story is that even the smallest tasks can help us learn important skills and give us a sense of accomplishment. With hard work and dedication, we are all capable of achieving great things.

+Suddenly, Emma heard someone shouting outside. She ran over to the window to see what was happening. To her surprise, she saw a man trying to escape from the police! Emma watched with wide eyes.
+
+“Hurry, hurry!†the man shouted. He waved his pistol around wildly.
+
+The police shouted back. “Stop right there or else!â€
+
+The man was lucky - he managed to escape. The police were so close but the man had gotten away!
+
+Emma watched in amazement as the man disappeared into the distance. She smiled to herself. Emma was so happy that the man had been lucky. She ran back to her room, ready to play with her favourite toy again.
+The day was wild in the farmyard. Suddenly, a split came through the laundry and a little rabbit jumped out. "What have you done!" said a surprised cow.
+
+The rabbit had a plan though. He ran wildly around the farmyard, kicking up the freshly washed laundry. The animals laughed and chased him around.
+
+"Stop that rabbit," said a rooster. But, no matter how hard they tried, the animals couldn't catch him.
+
+Finally, the rabbit scurried up a tree where he was safe. The animals were so impressed with his wild antics and speed that they decided to let him stay.
+
+The animals all cheered for the little rabbit and promised to be his friends for life. From then on, the little rabbit never had to worry about being in the laundry pile again.

+
+The elderly woman smiled. “That’s okay, sweetie. You enjoy yourself,†she said.
+
+Josh wasn’t deterred. He carefully handed Grandma the bubble wand. “Try it!†he said. Grandma laughed and waved him away.
+
+Josh persisted. He showed her how to dip the wand in the bubble solution and slowly blow to create the bubbles. Eventually, Grandma gave in and tried it.
+
+Sure enough, a bubble floated away. Josh cheered in delight as Grandma’s eyes lit up with surprise.
+
+“You did it, Grandma!†Josh said. It was a magical moment for the two of them. Grandma and Josh kept blowing bubbles together until the whole yard was filled with them.

+"I don't know my love," her mom said. "What did it look like?"
+
+Anna said, "It was thin and it had a unicorn on it."
+
+Her mom said, "Let's look around the room to see if we can find it."
+
+So they looked everywhere, under the bed, behind the sofa and in the little cupboard in the corner, but the stamp was nowhere to be found! 
+
+Just then, the phone rang and Anna's mom answered it. She was so distracted that she forgot about the stamp for a few minutes.

+John said, "Let's go play in the park"!
+
+Amy answered, "That sounds fun! Let's go".
+
+So, they both took their combs and set off for the park.
+
+When they reached the park, John said, "Let's play a game. Whoever can find the biggest comb wins!".
+
+Amy answered, "Okay!"
+
+John was so excited that he immediately started looking for the best comb. After a while, he found what seemed to be the best comb. He proudly showed it to Amy and said, "Look! I found it!".
+
+But Amy was not impressed. She simply said, "That is a very humble comb".
+
+John became enraged and tried to grab the comb from Amy. She was scared and started to run away, but John caught up with her and took the comb. From there, he never looked back and vanished in the woods.
+
+Amy was left feeling very sad and lonely. But she learned her lesson - never be too proud or too humble.

+One day, a curious caterpillar came by. He saw her perched in the tree and decided to start a conversation. 
+
+"Hello," the caterpillar said, "What's your name?"
+
+The blue bird looked down and shyly replied, "My name is Blue." 
+
+The caterpillar smiled and said, "It's nice to meet you. I'm Tommy and I'm here to try and cheer you up. Would you like to have a picnic with me?" 
+
+Blue was very excited. She had never had a picnic before! She eagerly said yes, and the two friends hopped down from the tree and found a sunny spot to enjoy their picnic. 
+
+Blue wasn't lonely anymore. With Tommy by her side, she felt like she had all the friends she needed. From that day on, she never had to try so hard to make friends - because now she had a friend who always stuck by her side.
+Once upon a time, there were two friends. One was named Tim, and the other was named Tom. They were walking through the forest and could see a big, unknown fire in the distance. 
+
+Tim was scared and said to his friend: "Tom, what is that unknown fire?"
+
+Tom smiled and said: "Tim, that is the forest keeper. He burns away the dead leaves so the forest will stay alive and new plants can grow."
+
+Tim was amazed. So, the two boys walked up to the fire and watched it together. Suddenly, they heard the forest keeper call out: "To keep the forest healthy, the fire must never end!"
+
+The two boys took the wise words of the forest keeper to heart, and every day they went out to help the fire last a little longer.
+
+This story teaches us that when we take care of the environment, we are helping something unknown come to life. We must never forget this, and never let the fire end.

+
+Later, Charlie found the spray was very nice and he began to spray it all over himself. He ran and jumped, spraying the spray everywhere! He was so happy, and the farmer was very pleased. 
+
+Charlie's expensive coat shimmered in the sun and it made the farm look so beautiful. Everyone who saw it thought so too. 
+
+And that's how Charlie the expensive goat played in his nice, shiny coat.

+Fergus was so sleepy that he didn't notice the thunderclouds moving in over the hills. The sky grew dark and the wind started to blow. Suddenly, there was a huge flash of lightning! Fergus jumped up and began to tremble.
+
+He asked his mom, "Why is the sky so noisy?". His mom replied, "The storm is coming, Fergus. You'll be safe on this side of the room." 
+
+Fergus was scared, so he stayed close to his mom. The thunder and lightning kept coming and Fergus kept trembling. Suddenly, his mom said, "Can you guess what will come next?"
+
+Fergus shook his head. Then he saw the first drops of rain start to fall. He looked up at the sky and watched as the rain came down harder and harder. Fergus stopped trembling and jumped up with joy! He loved playing in the rain! 
+

+
+Little bear nervously replied "I'm trying to escape from this factory".

+
+The grizzly bear opened the factory gates, and little bear ran out, excited for his journey. He was free!

+One day, Lucy was outside looking for something special to mix. She found a delicate little flower and quickly put it in her pot of mixed dirt. After Lucy was finished, she ran over to show her mother.
+
+"Mom, look what I made!" said Lucy proudly.
+
+Her mother smiled. "It is beautiful, Lucy! But I think you should be careful mixing things like that. It's not always safe."
+
+ Lucy agreed and decided it was time to take a break. She left the pot of mixed dirt and the delicate little flower outside and went to find something else to do. 
+
+The end.
+Once upon a time there was a grumpy bird. The bird was purple and he didn't like to play with other animals in the forest. He only liked to be alone.
+
+One day, the grumpy bird was sitting in his tree looking out across the forest. Just then, another purple bird flew past and said hello. But the grumpy bird was too grumpy to answer back and the other seed flew away.
+
+What the grumpy bird didn't know was that the trees roots were rotting and the tree could fall down at any minute.
+
+So the next day, the grumpy bird was sitting in his tree again, and he saw the other purple bird watching him from the branches of a nearby tree. This time the grumpy bird said hello back, and the two birds began to chat and play together. 
+
+But suddenly, the grumpy bird's tree began to creak and shake. The grumpy bird was so scared and had no time to escape before the tree suddenly fell down.

+
+Molly smiled and thought this was a great idea. From then on, they had events with only the two of them. They valued fun and spending time together more than any presents or cakes.

+
+"You need to balance the blocks on each other," Lila explained. "Like this." She picked up a block and put it on top of another block, making sure it did not fall.
+
+Ben tried to do the same, but his block fell down. He tried again, but it fell down again. He felt angry and sad.

+He picked up a strand of spaghetti and put it in his mouth.
+
+Lila gasped. She did not like that. She thought it was gross.
+
+"Ben, don't eat that!" she said. "It's dirty!"
+
+Ben shrugged. He did not care. He ate another strand of spaghetti.

+Ben and Lily were playing on the farm. They liked to run and jump and hide in the hay. The hay was soft and yellow and smelled good. They made a big pile of hay and pretended it was a castle.
+
+"Look, I am the king of the hay castle!" Ben said. He put a straw hat on his head and waved a stick. "You are my queen, Lily. Come and sit next to me."
+
+Lily giggled and climbed up the pile of hay. She put a flower crown on her head and smiled. "Yes, I am your queen, Ben. And this is our kingdom. We have cows and chickens and horses and dogs."

+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily screamed. "Ben, help me! I hurt my head!"
+
+Ben heard Lily and ran to her. He saw blood on her head and felt scared. He did not know what to do. He wanted to help Lily, but he was too small. He shouted for help, but no one heard him. The rain was too loud and the farm was too far.
+
+Ben and Lily were alone and wet and sad. They wished they had not played on the hay. They wished they had stayed inside. They wished someone would come and save them. But no one came. The rain did not stop. The hay did not dry. The blood did not stop. The pain did not go away. Ben and Lily cried and cried. They were in trouble. They had a bad ending.
+Tim and Lily were camping with their dad in the woods. They had a tent, a fire and some marshmallows. They liked to look at the stars and listen to the sounds of the night.

+
+"Dad, I'm scared," he whispered to his dad, who was lying next to him in the tent.
+
+"Don't worry, Tim," his dad said softly. "There's nothing to be scared of. Those are just the trees and the wind. They are our friends. They make the air fresh and the ground soft. See that big pine over there? It's very old and wise. It watches over us and protects us. Can you say hello to the pine?"
+
+Tim looked at the pine. It was tall and green and had many needles. He saw the moon shining through its branches. He felt a little better.
+
+"Hello, pine," he said quietly.
+
+The pine seemed to nod and smile. Tim smiled back.
+
+"Good boy," his dad said. "Now, close your eyes and think of something nice. Like your favorite toy or your best friend. And soon you will fall asleep and have sweet dreams."
+
+Tim closed his eyes and thought of his teddy bear. He hugged his dad and felt warm and safe. He heard his dad and Lily breathing softly. He heard the fire crackling and the wind singing. He heard the pine whispering good night.
+
+He fell asleep and had sweet dreams.

+Ben's mom thanked them and took the bowl. She said, "That is very generous of you. Ben will love the pasta. He is resting in his room. Do you want to say hi to him?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, please." She followed Ben's mom to his room. She saw Ben lying on his bed, wrapped in a blanket. He looked pale and tired. Lily said, "Hi, Ben. I brought you some pasta. It is yummy. I hope you feel better soon."
+
+Ben smiled weakly and said, "Hi, Lily. Thank you for the pasta. You are very kind. I miss playing with you."
+
+Lily said, "I miss you too. But you will get well soon. Then we can play again. Do you want to nap now?"
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Yes, I am sleepy. But I will eat the pasta later. It smells good."
+
+Lily said, "OK, Ben. Have a good nap. I will see you later. Bye."
+
+Lily gave Ben a hug and left his room. She said bye to Ben's mom and went back to her mom. They walked home, feeling happy. They had done a good thing. They had shared their pasta with their friend.
+Lily was a young girl who liked to play with her mom's perfume. She liked how it smelled and how it made her feel pretty. One day, when her mom was out, she sneaked into her bedroom and opened the perfume bottle. She sprayed some on her hair, her dress, and her doll. She smiled and twirled around the room.
+
+But then she heard the door open. It was her mom, coming back from the store. Lily quickly hid the perfume bottle under the bed and ran to hug her mom. "Hi, mom! I missed you!" she said.
+
+Her mom hugged her back, but then she sniffed the air. She smelled the perfume. She looked at Lily's hair, her dress, and her doll. She frowned and sighed. "Lily, did you play with my perfume?" she asked.
+
+Lily felt scared. She knew she did something wrong. She wanted to lie, but she also wanted to be honest. She nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I'm sorry. I just wanted to be like you. You smell so nice and you are so pretty."
+
+Her mom smiled and kissed her forehead. "Lily, you are already like me. You are my daughter and I love you. You don't need perfume to be pretty. You are pretty just the way you are. But perfume is not for playing. It is for special occasions and for grown-ups. It can be bad for your skin and your eyes and your nose. And it can make other people sneeze or feel sick. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I won't play with your perfume again. I'm sorry. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "Of course, I forgive you. You are a good girl and you told me the truth. That is very brave and very kind. But next time, if you want to smell nice, you can use some soap or some lotion or some flowers. They are safer and more fun. And they are for everyone. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Yes, mom. I want to try. Thank you, mom. I love you."
+
+They went to the bathroom and washed off the perfume. Then they put on some soap and some lotion and some flowers. They smelled nice and they felt happy. They learned a lesson and they had fun. The end.
+Tom and Sam were friends who liked to play. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big sword. It was a weapon that made them feel tough and strong. They pretended to be knights and fought bad guys.
+
+One day, they saw a new house in their street. It had a big fence and a sign that said "Keep Out". Tom and Sam were curious. They wanted to see what was inside. They climbed over the fence and entered the yard.
+
+They saw a big dog sleeping on the porch. It looked mean and scary. Tom and Sam thought it was a bad guy. They grabbed their sword and ran towards it. They wanted to fight it and win.
+
+But the dog woke up and saw them. It barked loudly and chased them. Tom and Sam were scared. They dropped their sword and ran back to the fence. They tried to climb over, but the dog was faster. It bit Tom's leg and made him cry.
+
+A man came out of the house and saw what happened. He called the dog and scolded it. He also scolded Tom and Sam. He said they should not enter his yard without asking. He said they should not play with weapons. He said they could hurt themselves or others. He said they should be sorry and learn to be nice.
+
+Tom and Sam felt bad. They said they were sorry and asked for forgiveness. The man was kind and helped Tom with his wound. He also gave them some cookies and milk. He said he was not a bad guy, but a friendly neighbor. He said he had a son who liked to play too. He said they could come and play with him, but only if they asked first and left their sword at home.
+
+Tom and Sam agreed. They thanked the man and said goodbye. They learned their lesson. They decided to be more careful and respectful. They also decided to play with other toys, not weapons. They realized that being tough was not as important as being good.

+
+"Go away, dog!" Ben shouts. "This is our ball!"
+
+The dog does not listen. The dog jumps and bites the ball. The ball pops. The dog runs away with the ball. Lila and Ben are sad. They cry.
+

+Lily was a cat who liked to organize her toys. She had a ball, a mouse, a fish and a feather. She put them in different corners of her room. She was very proud of her work.
+
+One day, she heard a knock on her door. It was her friend Ben, a dog. He wanted to play with her. "Can I come in?" he asked.
+
+Lily said yes, but she was a little worried. Ben was big and clumsy. He might mess up her toys. She hoped he would be careful.
+
+Ben came in and saw the toys. He was curious. He wanted to touch them. He went to the ball and picked it up with his paw. He shook it and it made a noise. He liked it.
+
+Lily saw him and said, "No, Ben, that's my ball. Put it back where it was. It's part of my organization."
+
+Ben did not understand. He thought it was a game. He said, "But it's fun. Let's play with it. Come on, Lily, don't be boring."
+
+He threw the ball across the room. It bounced and hit the mouse. The mouse flew and landed on the fish. The fish slid and knocked over the feather. The feather floated and landed on Lily's head.
+
+Lily was very upset. She saw her toys all over the place. She said, "Ben, you ruined my organization. You are a bad friend. Go away."
+
+Ben was sad. He did not mean to upset Lily. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I just wanted to play with you. I didn't know you liked your toys so much. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Lily looked at him. She saw his big eyes and his wagging tail. She felt sorry for him. She said, "It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. But next time, please ask me before you touch my toys. And maybe we can play with something else. Like this."
+
+She took the feather from her head and tickled Ben's nose. He sneezed and laughed. He said, "That's funny. I like that. Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend."
+
+They played with the feather for a while. Then they decided to help Lily organize her toys again. They had fun finding the hidden ones and putting them back in their places. They learned to respect each other's things and to share. They were happy.
+Sara liked to play dress-up with her mom's clothes and jewelry. She would put on a big hat, a long scarf, and a shiny necklace. Then she would look at herself in the mirror and pretend to be a princess or a star.
+
+One day, she found a new necklace in her mom's drawer. It was red and sparkly and had a big heart pendant. Sara thought it was the most beautiful necklace ever. She put it on and ran to the mirror to see how it looked.
+
+But when she got to the mirror, she saw that the heart pendant was gone. She looked down and saw it on the floor, broken in two pieces. Sara felt very sad and scared. She worried that her mom would be angry and not love her anymore. She did not know what to do.
+
+She picked up the pieces and ran to her room. She hid them under her pillow and hoped that her mom would not find them. She cried and cried until she fell asleep.
+
+Later, her mom came to her room to wake her up for dinner. She saw Sara's face wet with tears and asked her what was wrong. Sara was afraid to tell her, but she loved her mom and did not want to lie. She showed her the broken necklace and said she was sorry.
+
+Her mom hugged her and said she was not angry. She said the necklace was a gift from her grandma, who had passed away. She said the necklace was very special, but not as special as Sara. She said she loved Sara more than anything and nothing could change that.
+
+She said they could try to fix the necklace together, or make a new one with the pieces. She said they could also make a delicious cake to remember her grandma, who loved to bake. She said they could have a fun night of dress-up and cake, just the two of them.
+
+Sara felt happy and relieved. She said she loved her mom too and thanked her for being so kind. She said she was sorry for breaking the necklace, but glad they could still have fun. She said she wanted to be like her mom when she grew up.
+
+They hugged and kissed and went to the kitchen to make the cake. Sara put on her big hat, her long scarf, and her shiny necklace. She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. She felt like a princess and a star.
+Tom is a strong boy who likes to play outside. He runs, jumps, and climbs trees with his friends. He gets very dirty and sweaty from his games. His mom calls him to come inside and bathe.
+
+"Tom, it's time to bathe! You are very dirty and you smell bad!" his mom says.
+
+"But mom, I don't want to bathe! I want to play more!" Tom says.
+
+"No, Tom, you have to bathe. It is good for you. You will feel fresh and clean. And you will be hungry for dinner. I made your favorite: potato soup!" his mom says.
+
+Tom loves potato soup. It is warm and tasty. He thinks for a moment. He decides to listen to his mom. He goes inside and bathes. He washes his hair, his face, his arms, and his legs. He rinses off the soap and dries himself with a towel. He puts on his pajamas and goes to the kitchen.

+Timmy did not like to brush his teeth. He thought it was boring and icky. He liked to play with his toys and watch cartoons. Every night, his mom would tell him to go to the bathroom and brush his teeth. But Timmy would hide his brush under his bed and pretend he did it.
+
+One night, his mom came to check on him. She saw his brush under his bed and his teeth still dirty. She was very angry. She said, "Timmy, you lied to me. You did not brush your teeth. That is bad. You can get sick and have cavities. You have to brush your teeth every night. Now you are punished. You cannot watch cartoons tomorrow. And you have to brush your teeth twice as long."
+
+Timmy felt sad and scared. He did not want to be punished. He did not want to miss his cartoons. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I won't lie again. Please don't be harsh. Please let me watch cartoons."
+
+His mom shook her head. She said, "No, Timmy. You have to learn your lesson. You have to do what I say. You have to brush your teeth. It is good for you. Now go to the bathroom and brush your teeth. And no more hiding your brush."
+
+Timmy went to the bathroom and brushed his teeth. He did not like it, but he did not want to make his mom angry again. He hoped she would forgive him and let him watch cartoons soon. He learned that lying is bad and brushing is good. He decided to be a good boy and listen to his mom.
+Lily and Tom were hungry. They wanted to eat hot dogs. Mom said they could help her cook them on the grill. She gave them each a small apron and a spatula.

+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They watched Mom push a button and make a spark. Then they saw a flame under the grill. Mom put some hot dogs on the grill. They sizzled and smelled good.
+
+"Can I turn them, Mom?" Lily asked.
+

+
+"I'm so sorry. He escaped from his leash. He loves picnics too much. He didn't mean to ruin yours," the boy said.
+
+"It's okay. We understand. He's a cute dog, but he needs to learn some manners," Mom said.
+
+"Can we still be friends?" the boy asked.
+
+"Sure, we can. What's your name?" Ben asked.
+
+"I'm Sam. And this is Rex. He's a good dog, really. He just gets excited sometimes," Sam said.
+

+Lily and Tom are bored and uncomfortable. They want to go home. They whisper to each other.
+
+"Tom, I don't like the new teacher. He is mean and loud. Can we go away?" Lily says.

+They look at the clock. It is very slow. They sigh.
+
+Suddenly, the new teacher sees them. He is angry. He points at them with his finger.
+
+"Lily and Tom, come here! Why are you talking? You have to pay attention to the blackboard. You are naughty children. You have to stand in the corner and be quiet." He says.
+
+Lily and Tom are scared and sad. They don't want to stand in the corner. They want to be with their friends. They walk slowly to the corner and hang their heads.
+
+They wish their teacher would come back soon. They miss her. She is nice and gentle. She makes them happy and smart. They hope she is not sick anymore. They hope the new teacher will go away. They hope the bell will ring soon.

+Their mom and dad look at them with alert eyes.
+
+"Kids, we have some bad news," their dad says. "The vase was from grandma. She sent it to us with a message. She said she is sick and she needs our help. We have to go see her right away."
+
+Sam and Mia feel sad and scared. They love their grandma. They don't want her to be sick.
+
+"Can we go with you?" Sam says.
+
+Their mom and dad shake their heads.
+
+"No, sweeties, you have to stay here with aunt Lisa. She will take care of you. We will be back soon, we promise," their mom says.
+
+She hugs them and kisses them. Their dad does the same.
+
+"Be good, kids. We love you," their dad says.
+
+They take their bags and leave. Sam and Mia watch them go. They hold each other and cry. They hope their grandma will be okay. They hope their mom and dad will be back soon. They miss them and their blocks.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they saw a big peach tree with many ripe peaches on it. They wanted to pick some peaches and eat them.
+
+"Look, Lily, how big and red the peaches are!" Tom said. "They must be very sweet and juicy. Let's get some!"
+
+"Yes, Tom, let's go!" Lily said. "But how can we reach them? They are too high for us."
+
+Tom had an idea. He saw a wooden box near the fence. He dragged it to the peach tree and climbed on it. He stretched his arm and grabbed a peach. It was heavy and soft in his hand.
+
+"I got one, Lily! I got one!" Tom shouted. "Here, catch!"
+
+He threw the peach to Lily, who was waiting on the ground. But the peach was too heavy for Lily to catch. It fell on her head and bounced on the grass.
+
+"Ow! That hurt, Tom!" Lily cried. "Why did you throw it so hard?"
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to hurt you. Are you okay?" Tom said. He jumped off the box and ran to Lily. He hugged her and kissed her cheek.
+
+"I'm okay, Tom. It's just a bump. Don't worry." Lily said. She smiled and picked up the peach. She admired its color and smell. She rubbed it on her dress and broke it in half. She gave one half to Tom and kept the other half for herself.
+
+"Here, Tom. Let's share the peach. It's our prize for being brave and clever." Lily said.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are very kind and generous." Tom said. They bit into their peach halves and enjoyed the sweet and juicy fruit. They were happy and proud of their adventure. They decided to pick more peaches and share them with their mom and dad.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big truck with many colors. The truck has a sign that says "Ice Cream".
+
+"Look, ice cream!" Sara says. "Can we have some, mom?"
+
+"Yes, you can. But first, let's see what flavors they have," Sara's mom says.
+
+They walk to the truck and see a man with a big smile. He speaks to them, but they do not understand. He speaks a different language.
+
+"What is he saying, mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"I don't know, Ben. He speaks a language that we don't know. But maybe we can use our eyes and point to what we want," Ben's mom says.
+
+They look at the pictures on the truck. They see chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and more. Sara likes chocolate. She points to the chocolate picture. The man nods and gives her a cone with chocolate ice cream. Ben likes strawberry. He points to the strawberry picture. The man nods and gives him a cone with strawberry ice cream.
+
+"Thank you!" Sara and Ben say. The man smiles and says something. They do not know what he says, but they think he is nice.
+
+They lick their ice cream. It is cold and sweet and yummy. They smile at each other and at the man. They do not need to speak the same language to enjoy ice cream. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They gave him two blue buttons for eyes and a smile.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman!" Lily said. "Do you like the snow?"
+
+The snowman did not say anything. He just looked at them with his blue eyes.
+
+Tom said, "Maybe he is cold. Let's take him inside and warm him up."
+
+Lily nodded. They rolled the snowman to the door of their house. But he was too big to fit.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "How can we get him in?"
+
+Tom had an idea. He said, "Look, there is a chimney on the roof. Maybe we can push him up there and he can slide down."
+
+Lily liked the idea. They found a ladder and climbed up to the roof. They pushed the snowman to the chimney and gave him a big shove.
+
+"Bye, Mr. Snowman!" they said. "See you inside!"
+
+They ran down the ladder and went into the house. They waited by the fireplace for the snowman to come out.
+
+But he did not come out. Instead, they heard a loud thud and a splash.
+
+They ran to the kitchen and saw a big mess. The snowman had landed in a pot of soup that their mom was stirring on the stove. He had melted into a puddle of water and carrot and buttons.
+
+Their mom was not happy. She said, "What have you done? You ruined my soup and my pot!"
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We wanted to warm up the snowman. We did not know he would melt."
+
+Their mom sighed. She said, "Snowmen are not meant to be warm. They are meant to stay outside in the snow. Next time, leave them there."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They said, "OK, mom. We learned our lesson. Can we have some soup anyway?"
+
+Their mom smiled. She said, "Yes, you can. But first, help me clean up this mess. And then we can make a new snowman outside. But this time, no chimney."
+Lily was very happy today. She had a new friend to play with. Her name was Mia and she was from the next street. Lily wanted to show Mia her bedroom. She had many toys and books and a big bed.
+
+"Come on, Mia!" Lily said. "Let me introduce you to my bedroom. It is very fun and cozy."
+
+Mia followed Lily up the stairs. She was curious and excited. She liked Lily's pink dress and yellow hair. She hoped Lily had some dolls or puzzles to share.
+
+Lily opened the door and smiled. "This is my bedroom!" she said. "Do you like it?"
+
+Mia looked around. She saw a lot of things. She saw a desk, a chair, a lamp, a closet, a rug, a window, a mirror, and a wall. But she did not see any toys or books or a big bed. Instead, she saw a lot of crazy things. She saw a snake, a spider, a bat, a skull, a bone, a knife, a candle, and a picture of a scary clown.
+
+Mia screamed. She was very scared. She did not like Lily's bedroom at all. She did not think it was fun or cozy. She thought it was creepy and spooky.
+
+Lily laughed. She was not scared. She liked her bedroom very much. She liked the crazy things. She thought they were cool and funny.
+
+"Don't be scared, Mia!" Lily said. "They are not real. They are just toys. I like to play with them. They make me happy. Do you want to play with them too?"
+
+Mia shook her head. She did not want to play with them. She wanted to run away. She did not want to be Lily's friend anymore. She thought Lily was weird and mean.
+
+"Please, Lily," Mia said. "Let me go. I don't like your bedroom. I don't like your toys. I don't like you."
+
+Lily frowned. She did not understand. She thought Mia was rude and boring. She did not want to let her go. She wanted to keep her. She wanted to play with her.
+
+"No, Mia," Lily said. "You can't go. You are my friend. You are my toy. You are mine."
+
+Lily grabbed Mia's arm and pulled her inside. She closed the door and locked it. She turned off the light and lit the candle. She smiled and said, "Now we can play."
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big rock. It is shiny and smooth. They think it is attractive.
+
+"Look at this rock!" Anna says. "It is so pretty. Can I have it?"
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Ben says. "It is mine. I want it!"
+
+They start to pull the rock. They are angry. They do not want to share.
+
+A lady sees them. She is nice. She has a basket. In the basket, there are many mints. They are green and sweet. She gives them to the children.
+
+"Hello, Anna and Ben," she says. "Why are you fighting? Do you know what this rock is?"
+
+They stop pulling. They look at the lady. They shake their heads.
+
+"This rock is a fossil," she says. "It is very old. It was once a shell of a sea animal. Do you want to learn more about it?"
+
+They nod. They are curious. They like to learn.
+
+"Then, why don't you share the rock?" she says. "You can both look at it and touch it. You can also have some mints. They are good for your teeth."
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They say sorry to each other. They share the rock. They eat the mints. They thank the lady. They are happy. They are friends again.
+It was a cold night and Lily and Tom were in their pajamas. They wanted to watch a movie with Mom and Dad, but they had to wait until the fireplace was ready. Dad was putting some wood and paper in the fireplace and Mom was looking for matches.
+
+"Can we watch the movie now?" Lily asked, feeling eager.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. We need to light the fire first. It will make the room warm and cozy," Mom said.
+
+"Can I help?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, you can help me find the matches. They are in the kitchen drawer," Mom said.
+
+Tom ran to the kitchen and opened the drawer. He saw a small box with a picture of a fire on it. He grabbed it and ran back to the living room.
+
+"I found them, I found them!" he shouted, holding the box.
+
+"Good job, Tom. Now be careful and give them to me," Mom said.
+
+Mom took the box and opened it. She took out a match and struck it on the side of the box. It made a bright spark and a small flame. She brought the match to the fireplace and touched it to the paper. The paper caught fire and soon the wood was burning too. The fireplace made a crackling sound and a warm glow.
+
+"Wow, look at the fire!" Lily said, watching the flames.
+
+"It's so pretty and warm," Tom said, watching too.
+
+Mom and Dad smiled and hugged Lily and Tom. They brought a big blanket and some pillows and made a cozy spot on the couch. They turned on the TV and put on a movie. Lily and Tom snuggled with Mom and Dad and watched the movie. They felt happy and sleepy. They liked watching the fireplace and the movie. It was a good night.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big star in the sky. It is yellow and bright.
+
+"Look, a star!" Sara says. "I want to have it."
+
+"Me too," Tom says. "But how can we get it?"
+
+They think and think. Then they have an idea. They find a big stick and a long rope. They tie the rope to the stick. They throw the stick at the star.
+
+But the stick does not reach the star. It falls back to the ground. Sara and Tom are sad.
+
+"Maybe we need a bigger stick," Tom says.
+
+"Or a longer rope," Sara says.
+
+They look for a bigger stick and a longer rope. But they do not find any. They are very sad.
+
+Then they see a man with a cart. He has many fruits in his cart. He has apples, oranges, bananas, and lemons.
+
+"Hello, children," the man says. "Do you want some fruits?"
+
+Sara and Tom look at the fruits. They see a yellow fruit that looks like a star. It is a lemon.
+
+"Can we have that star?" Sara asks.
+
+The man smiles. He gives them a lemon.
+
+"Here you go," he says. "But be careful, it is very sour."
+
+Sara and Tom are happy. They thank the man. They run to a bench. They peel the lemon. They take a bite.
+
+But the lemon is not sweet like the star. It is sour like vinegar. It makes their faces twist.
+
+"Yuck!" Sara says. "This star is sour!"
+
+"Yuck!" Tom says. "I don't like it!"
+
+They spit out the lemon. They throw it away. They are not happy.
+
+They look at the sky. They see the real star. It is still yellow and bright.
+
+"I wish we could have that star," Sara says.
+
+"Me too," Tom says.
+
+They sigh. They hug each other. They are still friends.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a squirrel on a tree. The squirrel had a shiny thing in its mouth. It looked like a star.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Tim said. "The squirrel has a star!"
+
+"Let's get it!" Lily said. "Maybe it can glow in the dark!"
+
+They ran to the tree. The squirrel saw them and ran away. It jumped to another tree. Tim and Lily followed it. They tried to catch it, but it was too fast.
+
+"Come back, squirrel!" Tim shouted. "Give us the star!"
+
+The squirrel did not listen. It ran and ran. It went to the top of a big tree. Tim and Lily could not reach it. They were frustrated.
+
+"Stupid squirrel!" Lily said. "Why won't you share?"
+
+The squirrel looked down at them. It made a noise. It sounded like a laugh. It showed them the shiny thing. It was not a star. It was a wrapper. The squirrel had found it in the trash.
+
+Tim and Lily felt silly. They had chased a wrapper. They looked at each other and laughed too.
+
+"Let's go play something else," Tim said.
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But next time, we will find a real star!"
+Tom and Lily wanted to make a belt for their dad. They found some leather in the garage and a ruler to measure it. They cut the leather with scissors and made holes with a punch.
+
+"Let me help you, Lily," Tom said. "You are too weak to punch the holes."
+
+"I am not weak, Tom," Lily said. "I can do it by myself. You are not the boss of me."
+
+They started to argue and pull the leather. The leather ripped in half.
+
+"Oh no, what have we done?" Tom said. "Now we have no belt for dad. He will be sad."
+
+Lily started to cry. "I am sorry, Tom. It was my fault. I should have listened to you."
+
+Tom hugged Lily. "It's okay, Lily. We can fix it. We can sew the leather back together. We still have some thread and a needle. We can make dad a belt with two colors."
+
+They worked together to sew the leather. They made a belt with brown and black leather. They were proud of their work.
+
+They gave the belt to their dad. He smiled and hugged them.
+
+"Thank you, Tom and Lily. This is the best belt ever. You are very clever and kind. I love you both very much."
+Lily and Sam liked to play with bubbles. They had a big bottle of soap and a wand with a hole. They dipped the wand in the soap and blew air. Out came many bubbles, big and small, round and shiny. They flew in the air and made the garden look pretty.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can make a giant bubble!" Sam said. He blew very hard and a huge bubble came out of his wand. It was bigger than his head. He laughed and tried to catch it.
+
+"Wow, Sam, that's amazing!" Lily said. She clapped her hands and ran after the bubble. She wanted to touch it and see if it was soft. But the bubble was too fast. It floated away from her.
+
+Lily and Sam chased the bubble across the garden. They ran and jumped and dodged the other bubbles. They had so much fun. But they also got very dizzy. They felt like the world was spinning.
+
+"Sam, I'm dizzy!" Lily said. She stopped running and held her head. She felt sick.
+
+"Me too, Lily!" Sam said. He also stopped and sat down. He felt tired.
+
+The bubble kept flying until it reached a tree. It popped and made a small sound. Lily and Sam did not hear it. They lay down on the grass and closed their eyes. They felt better.
+
+They smiled and hugged each other. They loved to play with bubbles. But they also loved to rest. They decided to take a nap and dream of more bubbles.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big hole in the ground. It looks like a cave.
+
+"Let's go inside the cave!" Sam says. He is brave and curious.
+
+"No, it's too dark and scary!" Ben says. He is afraid and careful.
+
+"Come on, don't be a baby!" Sam says. He runs to the hole and jumps in.
+
+"Sam, wait!" Ben says. He follows his brother, but he is not happy.
+
+Inside the cave, it is very dark and cold. Sam and Ben can't see anything. They hear strange noises and feel wet and slimy things.
+
+"Sam, I don't like this cave. Let's go back!" Ben says. He is shivering and crying.
+
+"OK, OK, let's go back!" Sam says. He is also scared and sorry. He tries to find the way out, but he can't. They are lost.
+
+They walk and walk, but they only see more dark and cold. They are hungry and thirsty and tired. They wish they never went inside the cave.
+
+Then, they see a light. It is a flashlight. It is their dad. He is looking for them. He is a policeman. He works hard to keep people safe.
+
+"Sam! Ben! I found you!" Dad says. He is happy and relieved. He hugs them and kisses them.
+
+"Dad! We're sorry! We went inside the cave and we got lost!" Sam and Ben say. They are happy and grateful. They hug him and kiss him.
+
+"It's OK, boys. I'm glad you're safe. But don't ever do that again. The cave is dangerous. It is not a place to play. It is a place where bad people hide. They steal things and hurt people. They use cheap and broken tools to dig the cave. They make the cave weak and ready to fall. You could have been hurt or trapped or worse." Dad says. He is serious and stern. He shows them his gun and his badge.
+
+"We understand, Dad. We're sorry, Dad. We love you, Dad." Sam and Ben say. They are sorry and ashamed. They love him and respect him.
+
+Dad takes them out of the cave. He gives them water and food and blankets. He takes them home. He tells Mom what happened. Mom is angry and worried. She scolds them and hugs them. She loves them and forgives them.
+
+Sam and Ben learn their lesson. They never go inside the cave again. They play in the park. They listen to Dad and Mom. They work hard at school. They are good boys. They are happy boys.
+Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they saw a big box in the living room. It had a bow and a tag that said "For Ben and Mia, from Grandma and Grandpa". They were very happy and ran to the box.
+
+"Can we open it, Mommy?" Ben asked.
+
+"Not yet, sweeties. Grandma and Grandpa will call us soon and tell us the news. They have a surprise for us," Mommy said.
+
+Ben and Mia waited and waited. They looked at the box and wondered what was inside. They blinked their eyes and tried to guess. Maybe it was a new doll, or a train, or a book, or a puzzle.
+
+The phone rang and Mommy answered. She smiled and said "Hello, Grandma and Grandpa. How are you?" Ben and Mia ran to the phone and said "Hi, Grandma and Grandpa. We love you. We see the box. What is it?"
+
+Grandma and Grandpa laughed and said "We love you too, Ben and Mia. We have some news for you. We are coming to visit you tomorrow. And the box is a cake. A delicious cake that we baked for you. Do you like cake?"
+
+Ben and Mia cheered and said "Yes, we like cake. Thank you, Grandma and Grandpa. We can't wait to see you and eat the cake."
+
+Mommy said "That's wonderful news. We are so excited to see you too. Thank you for the cake. We will save it for tomorrow. Bye, Grandma and Grandpa."
+
+Mommy hung up the phone and hugged Ben and Mia. They hugged her back and said "We are so happy, Mommy. Grandma and Grandpa are coming and they made us a cake. A delicious cake."
+
+Mommy said "Yes, sweeties. We are very lucky. Now, let's put the box in the kitchen and go play some more. We will have a big party tomorrow."
+
+Ben and Mia nodded and followed Mommy to the kitchen. They put the box on the table and went back to the living room. They played with their toys and forgot about the box.
+
+But the box did not forget about them. The box had a hole in the bottom. And the cake had a lot of cream and sugar. And the cream and sugar had a lot of ants. And the ants crawled out of the hole and into the kitchen. And the ants ate the cake. And the ants made a big mess.
+
+The next day, Mommy went to the kitchen to get the cake. She screamed and dropped the box. Ben and Mia ran to the kitchen and saw the cake. The cake was gone. There was only a pile of crumbs and ants. They cried and said "No, no, no. The cake. The delicious cake. Grandma and Grandpa's cake. It's ruined. It's ruined."
+
+Mommy said "Oh, no. Oh, no. How did this happen? The ants. The ants ate the cake. I'm so sorry, Ben and Mia. I'm so sorry, Grandma and Grandpa. What are we going to do?"
+
+Grandma and Grandpa knocked on the door. They heard the crying and the screaming. They opened the door and saw the kitchen. They saw the box and the cake and the ants. They said "Oh, dear. Oh, dear. What a disaster. What a shame. We are so sorry, Ben and Mia. We are so sorry, Mommy. We wanted to make you happy. We wanted to give you a delicious cake."
+
+Ben and Mia ran to Grandma and Grandpa and hugged them. They said "We are sorry, Grandma and Grandpa. We love you. We love you more than cake. We are happy you are here. We don't need cake. We have you."
+
+Grandma and Grandpa hugged them back and said "We love you too, Ben and Mia. We love you more than anything. We are happy we are here. We don't need cake. We have you."
+
+Mommy said "We love you all. We love you more than cake. We are happy we are together. We don't need cake. We have each other."
+
+They smiled and wiped their tears. They said "We don't need cake. We have each other."
+
+But they still wished they had cake. Because cake is delicious. And they were hungry. And they had no cake. And that was sad. The end.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and look for bugs and stones. They had a big bucket to put their finds in.
+
+One day, they found something shiny and round in the dirt. They pulled it out and saw that it was a bottle. It had a cork on top and a label with words they could not read.
+
+"What is this?" Sara asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it's juice," Ben said.
+
+They tried to open the bottle, but the cork was too tight. They pushed and pulled, but it did not move.
+
+"Let me try," Sara said. She took the bottle and banged it on the ground. The cork popped out with a loud sound. Some red liquid spilled out of the bottle.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Ben said.
+
+They smelled the liquid. It did not smell like juice. It smelled sour and strong.
+
+"Yuck, what is this?" Sara asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it's wine," Ben said.
+
+They heard a voice behind them. It was their mom. She looked angry.
+
+"What are you doing with that bottle?" she asked.
+
+They turned around and saw her. They felt scared.
+
+"We found it in the garden. We wanted to see what it was," Sara said.
+
+"That's not for you. That's for grown-ups. That's wine. It's not good for children. You could get sick. And you made a mess. How did you open it?" mom asked.
+
+"We banged it on the ground. It made a loud sound," Ben said.
+
+Mom shook her head. She took the bottle and the bucket from them.
+
+"That was very naughty. You should not touch things that are not yours. And you should not waste wine. That was a special bottle. It was a gift from your dad. He will be very upset when he sees this," mom said.
+
+She took them inside and gave them a time-out. They had to sit on the couch and think about what they did. They felt sorry and sad.
+
+They learned a lesson. They did not want to discover wine again. They decided to stick to juice and water. And they hoped that dad would not be too mad.
+Lily liked tuna very much. She always asked her mom to buy tuna when they went to the shop. One day, she saw a big can of tuna on the shelf and wanted to have it. But her mom said no, they had enough tuna at home. Lily was angry and sad. She did not listen to her mom and took the can of tuna when her mom was not looking. She hid it in her bag and went home.
+
+At home, Lily opened the can of tuna and ate it all by herself. She did not share it with her mom or her brother. She felt happy and full. But soon, she felt sick and had a tummy ache. She ran to the bathroom and threw up. She cried and called for her mom.
+
+Her mom came and saw the empty can of tuna on the floor. She knew what Lily had done. She was not happy. She said to Lily, "Lily, you did a bad thing. You took the tuna without asking. You lied to me. You were greedy and selfish. You hurt yourself and made me sad. You need to say sorry and pray to God for forgiveness."
+
+Lily felt ashamed and sorry. She said to her mom, "Mom, I am sorry. I did a bad thing. I took the tuna without asking. I lied to you. I was greedy and selfish. I hurt myself and made you sad. Please forgive me. I will pray to God for forgiveness."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "Lily, I forgive you. I love you. But you need to learn from your mistake. You need to be honest and kind. You need to share and be thankful. You need to listen and obey. God loves you too. He will forgive you if you pray and repent. He will help you to be a good girl."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Mom, I love you too. I will learn from my mistake. I will be honest and kind. I will share and be thankful. I will listen and obey. I will pray to God and repent. I will ask Him to help me to be a good girl."
+
+They prayed together and thanked God for His love and mercy. Lily felt better and promised to never take things without asking again. She learned that being greedy and selfish is wrong and that being honest and kind is right. She learned that God is always watching and that He wants her to be a good girl.
+Ben likes to wake up early and play with his toys. He has a lot of toys, but his favorite is a robot that makes noises and lights up when he pushes the button. He likes to pretend that the robot is his friend and they go on adventures together.
+
+One morning, Ben woke up before his mom and dad. He was very excited to play with his robot. He grabbed it from his shelf and ran to the living room. He pushed the button and the robot started to beep and flash. Ben laughed and talked to the robot.
+
+"Hello, robot. Do you want to go to the moon with me?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, Ben. Let's go to the moon. Beep beep boop," the robot answered.
+
+Ben and the robot pretended to fly to the moon. They jumped on the couch and the pillows. They made rocket noises and waved to the stars. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But they also made a lot of noise. Ben did not notice that his mom and dad were still sleeping in their bedroom. He did not hear them wake up and come to the living room. He did not see them standing at the door, looking at him and the robot.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" his mom asked.
+
+Ben turned around and saw his mom and dad. He was surprised and scared. He dropped the robot and it stopped beeping and flashing. He felt embarrassed. He did not want to make his mom and dad angry.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, dad. I just wanted to play with my robot. I did not mean to wake you up," he said.
+
+His mom and dad looked at him and the robot. They were not angry. They were tired, but they were also amused. They smiled and hugged him.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. We know you love your robot. But you have to be quiet when we are sleeping. You can play with your robot later, after breakfast. Okay?" his dad said.
+
+"Okay, dad. I'm sorry. I love you," Ben said.
+
+"We love you too, Ben. Now, let's go to the kitchen and have some cereal. Maybe you can tell us about your moon adventure," his mom said.
+
+Ben nodded and picked up his robot. He followed his mom and dad to the kitchen. He felt better. He still liked his robot, but he also liked his mom and dad. He decided to play with his robot later, when they were awake. He hoped they would like his robot too.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big hat on a bench. The hat is red and shiny. It has a feather and a star.
+
+"Wow, look at that hat!" Lily says. "It is so pretty. I want to wear it."
+
+"No, I want to wear it!" Ben says. "It is so cool. I want to be famous."
+
+They both run to the hat. They grab it at the same time. They pull and tug. They start to quarrel.
+
+"Let go of the hat!" Lily shouts.
+
+"No, you let go!" Ben shouts.
+
+They are so loud that they do not hear someone coming. It is a clown. He is wearing a big nose and big shoes. He is looking for his hat.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing with my hat?" the clown says. "That is my hat. I need it for my show."
+
+Lily and Ben stop quarreling. They look at the clown. They feel sorry. They let go of the hat.
+
+"We are sorry, mister," Lily says. "We did not know it was your hat. We just liked it."
+
+"Yeah, we are sorry," Ben says. "We did not mean to take it. We just wanted to try it."
+
+The clown smiles. He is not angry. He is kind.
+
+"That is okay, kids," the clown says. "I am glad you like my hat. It is a special hat. It makes people laugh. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They are curious. The clown puts on his hat. He makes funny faces and funny noises. He juggles and dances. He makes Lily and Ben laugh. They forget their quarrel. They become friends again.
+
+The clown is happy. He likes to make people happy. He invites Lily and Ben to his show. He gives them each a balloon. They thank him and follow him. They have fun. They learn to share. They do not quarrel over a hat again.
+Sara loved to help her mom in the kitchen. She always wore her pink apron with the flowers on it. She liked to stir the soup, cut the bread, and taste the cake. She wanted to be a brilliant cook like her mom.
+
+One day, Sara saw a big jar of honey on the shelf. She loved honey. She wanted to put some on her bread. She climbed on a chair and reached for the jar. But the jar was too heavy and slippery. It fell from her hand and crashed on the floor. Honey and glass went everywhere.
+
+Sara was scared and sad. She started to cry. Her mom heard the noise and ran to the kitchen. She saw the mess and hugged Sara. She was not angry. She said, "It's okay, honey. Accidents happen. We can clean this up together."
+
+But Sara was still crying. She pointed to the jar and said, "I want honey! I want honey!" She demanded honey. She did not listen to her mom.
+
+Her mom said, "Sara, you can't have honey now. It's all over the floor. It's not safe. You could cut yourself or get sick. We have to throw it away. Maybe we can get some more honey later."
+
+But Sara did not understand. She was too young. She thought her mom was being mean. She threw a tantrum. She kicked and screamed. She pulled her apron off and threw it on the floor. She said, "No! No! No! I want honey! I want honey!"
+
+Her mom was patient and calm. She said, "Sara, you need to calm down. You need to listen to me. You need to be a good girl. If you are a good girl, maybe I can give you a surprise. A very sweet surprise. Do you want a surprise?"
+
+Sara stopped crying. She was curious. She liked surprises. She said, "What surprise? What surprise?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Come with me. I have something for you in the oven. Something you will love. Something that has honey in it. Can you guess what it is?"
+
+Sara followed her mom to the oven. She saw a golden brown cake with a shiny glaze. It smelled delicious. It was a honey cake. Her mom's brilliant honey cake. Sara's favorite cake.
+
+Sara gasped and said, "Honey cake! Honey cake! You made honey cake for me!"
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, I did. I made it for you because I love you. And because you helped me in the kitchen. And because you are a brilliant cook too. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will not touch the honey jar again. You have to ask me first. Okay?"
+
+Sara nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I promise. I'm sorry I was bad. I love you too. Can I have some honey cake now?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course you can. But first, let's put your apron back on. You don't want to get sticky, do you?"
+
+Sara smiled and said, "No, I don't. Thank you, mom. You are the best mom ever."
+
+They hugged and kissed. Then they cut a big slice of honey cake and shared it. It was the best honey cake ever. Sara was happy. Her mom was happy. They were a brilliant team.
+Lily and Mark were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their ball. Mark was very good at throwing the ball. He could throw it very far and very high. Lily was good at catching the ball. She was very fast and very brave. They always had fun together.
+
+One day, they saw a big dog in the park. The dog was brown and furry. It looked friendly, but it was very loud. It barked and ran around the park. Lily and Mark were scared of the dog. They wanted to play with their ball, but they did not want the dog to chase them.
+
+"Let's go to the other side of the park," Lily said. "Maybe the dog will not see us there."
+
+"OK," Mark said. He picked up the ball and threw it to Lily. But he threw it too hard and too fast. The ball flew over Lily's head and landed near the dog. The dog saw the ball and ran towards it. It picked up the ball in its mouth and wagged its tail.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Mark shouted. He ran after the dog. He wanted to get the ball back. Lily ran after Mark. She wanted to help him.
+
+But the dog was faster than Mark and Lily. It ran away with the ball. Mark and Lily could not catch it. They stopped and looked at each other. They were sad and angry.
+
+"That was a bad throw, Mark," Lily said. "You lost our ball."
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Mark said. "I did not mean to throw it so far. I wanted to throw it to you."
+
+"I know, Mark," Lily said. "But you have to be more careful. You have to throw the ball better."
+
+Mark nodded. He felt bad. He wanted to make Lily happy. He wanted to be a reliable friend.
+
+"Maybe we can find another ball," he said. "Or maybe we can play something else."
+
+Lily smiled. She was not mad at Mark anymore. She knew he was sorry. She knew he was a good friend.
+
+"OK, Mark," she said. "Let's go and see what we can find. Maybe the dog will bring our ball back later."
+
+They held hands and walked away. They hoped the dog would be nice and return their ball. They hoped they would have fun again. They were still best friends.
+One day, Ben and Lily wanted to make a sandwich with jam. They went to the kitchen and climbed on a chair to reach the jar of jam on the shelf. But the jar was too high and heavy for them.
+
+"Let me help you," said Mom, who saw them from the living room. "Jam is dangerous for you to get by yourself. You could fall and hurt yourself or break the jar and cut yourself."
+
+"But we are hungry and we want jam," said Ben and Lily.
+
+"I know, but you have to care about your safety and ask for help when you need it," said Mom. "Jam is not good for you to eat too much anyway. It has too much sugar and can make you sick. How about we make a sandwich with cheese and ham instead? It is yummy and healthy."
+
+"Okay, Mom," said Ben and Lily. "We are sorry for trying to get the jam. We will care about our safety and listen to you next time."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She made them a sandwich with cheese and ham and cut it into four pieces. They ate it together and enjoyed it. They learned that jam is dangerous and that they should care about their safety and their health.
+Tim liked to play with his computer. He liked to watch funny videos, draw pictures and play games. He played with his computer every day, even when his mom and dad asked him to do other things. He did not want to help with chores, play outside or read books. He only wanted to play with his computer.
+
+One day, his computer stopped working. It made a loud noise and the screen went black. Tim was very sad and angry. He cried and shouted. He did not know what to do without his computer. His mom and dad tried to help him. They said they would take his computer to a shop to fix it. They said he could do other things while he waited. They said he could relax and have fun.
+
+Tim did not listen to them. He did not want to do other things. He wanted his computer back. He was very bored and unhappy. He stayed in his room and did nothing. He did not relax and have fun.
+
+After a few days, his mom and dad came back with his computer. They said it was fixed and ready to use. Tim was very happy and excited. He ran to his room and turned on his computer. He wanted to play with it all day. But when he looked at the screen, he saw something different. He saw a lovely picture of his mom and dad smiling. He saw a message that said: "We love you, Tim. We want you to be happy and healthy. We want you to play with your computer, but not too much. We want you to do other things too. We want you to help with chores, play outside and read books. We want you to relax and have fun. Please remember that there is more to life than your computer. Love, Mom and Dad."
+
+Tim looked at the picture and the message. He felt something in his heart. He felt sorry and grateful. He realized that his mom and dad were right. He realized that he had been missing out on other things. He realized that he had been too obsessed with his computer. He turned off his computer and hugged his mom and dad. He said he was sorry and he loved them. He said he would play with his computer, but not too much. He said he would do other things too. He said he would relax and have fun.
+
+Tim learned a lesson that day. He learned that his computer was a good thing, but not the only thing. He learned that his mom and dad cared for him and wanted the best for him. He learned that he could enjoy life in many ways. He learned to relax and have fun.
+Anna and Ben love to play with water. They have a big tub in the garden, and many cups, bottles and tubes. They like to pour water from one thing to another, and make splashes and bubbles.
+
+One day, they find a new tube in the shed. It is long and bendy, and has a funny shape at one end. Anna thinks it looks like a snake, and Ben thinks it looks like a trumpet. They decide to try it out.
+
+They fill a bottle with water, and put the tube in it. Then they blow into the other end of the tube. They hear a loud noise, like a horn. They laugh and clap. They blow harder, and the water shoots out of the bottle, like a fountain. They are amazed.
+
+They take turns to blow the tube and make the water spray. They wet the grass, the flowers, and each other. They giggle and squeal. They have so much fun.
+
+But they do not see that the water is also spraying the window of the house. And they do not hear that their mom is inside, working on her laptop. They do not know that the water is dripping on her screen, and making it go blank. They do not know that she is very angry.
+
+Until she opens the window, and shouts at them. "What are you doing? Stop that right now! You ruined my work! You are in big trouble!"
+
+Anna and Ben stop blowing the tube. They look at each other, and then at their mom. They are scared. They drop the tube and the bottle, and run to their room. They wish they had not played with the new tube. They wish they had listened to their mom. They are sorry.
+Ben and Mia liked to play near the creek. The creek was quiet and had many rocks and sticks. They made a boat with a stick and a leaf. They wanted to sail the boat on the water.
+
+"Let's tie a string to the boat," said Ben. "Then we can pull it back."
+
+"Good idea," said Mia. She found a string in her pocket. She tied one end to the boat and the other end to her finger.
+
+They put the boat on the creek and watched it float. The water was gentle and the boat moved slowly.
+
+"Look, it's going under the bridge!" said Ben.
+
+They ran to the other side of the bridge to see the boat. But they did not see the boat. They only saw the string.
+
+"Where is the boat?" asked Mia.
+
+"I don't know," said Ben. "Maybe it got stuck."
+
+They pulled the string, but it did not move. They pulled harder, but it still did not move.
+
+"Uh-oh," said Ben. "I think the string is tied to something under the bridge."
+
+They heard a splash. They looked at the water and saw a big fish. The fish had the boat in its mouth. It swam away with the boat.
+
+"Hey, that's our boat!" said Mia.
+
+"Come back, fish!" said Ben.
+
+But the fish did not come back. It took the boat to its home under the water.
+
+Ben and Mia were sad. They lost their boat. They walked back to the shore.
+
+"Maybe we can make another boat," said Mia.
+
+"Maybe," said Ben. "But next time, let's not tie a string to it."
+Tim and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big house with a fence. The house has many windows and a pool. Tim says, "Wow, that is a wealthy house. I wish I lived there."
+
+Sue says, "Me too. But we have fun in the park. Look, there is a slide and a swing. Let's go play."
+
+They run to the slide and take turns. Then they go to the swing and push each other. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But then, it starts to rain. The rain is cold and wet. Tim and Sue are sad. They do not want to get wet. They look for a place to hide.
+
+They see a big tree with many leaves. The tree is near the fence of the wealthy house. They run to the tree and cover themselves with the leaves. They hope the rain will stop soon.
+
+They hear a voice from the other side of the fence. It is a boy. He says, "Hello, who are you? I see you under the tree. Do you want to come inside? I have toys and games. I am bored. I have no friends."
+
+Tim and Sue are surprised. They peek through the fence. They see the boy. He is wearing nice clothes and has a smile. He looks friendly.
+
+Tim says, "Hi, I am Tim. This is Sue. We are friends. We play in the park. But it is raining. We are hiding under the tree."
+
+The boy says, "I am Ben. I live in the wealthy house. But I am lonely. My parents are busy. They work all week. They do not play with me. Do you want to be my friends?"
+
+Tim and Sue look at each other. They nod. They say, "Yes, we want to be your friends. Can we come inside?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, of course. Come on. Follow me. I will show you my toys and games. We can have fun together."
+
+Tim and Sue smile. They leave the tree and follow Ben. They go inside the wealthy house. They see many things. They are amazed. But they are more happy to have a new friend. They play with Ben. They forget about the rain. They have fun.
+Tom and Lily 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 with their snowman.
+
+"Look, our snowman is perfect!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, he is!" Tom agreed. "But he needs something more. He needs a cross."
+
+"A cross? What is a cross?" Lily asked.
+
+"A cross is like this." Tom showed her with his fingers. "It is a sign that means love and hope. My grandma has a cross on her wall. She says it reminds her of God and Jesus."
+
+"Oh, I see. That is nice. But where can we find a cross for our snowman?" Lily wondered.
+
+"Maybe we can make one with sticks. Come on, let's look for some sticks." Tom said.
+
+They ran around the snow, looking for sticks. They found four sticks that were about the same size. They put two sticks together to make a cross. They tied them with a piece of string.
+
+"Here, we have a cross!" Tom said proudly.
+
+"Good job, Tom! Let's put it on our snowman." Lily said.
+
+They ran back to their snowman. They stuck the cross on his chest. They stepped back and admired their work.
+
+"Now our snowman is perfect and has a cross!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, he does! And he looks very happy!" Tom said.
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They heard their mom calling them from the house.
+
+"Tom! Lily! Time to come in! It's getting dark and cold!" Mom said.
+
+"OK, Mom! We're coming!" Tom and Lily shouted.
+
+They waved goodbye to their snowman. They hoped he would not melt. They hoped he would stay frozen until they could play with him again. They ran to the house, holding hands. They were warm and cozy inside. They had hot chocolate and cookies. They told Mom about their snowman and his cross. Mom listened and smiled. She was proud of her children. She gave them a big hug and a kiss.
+
+The end.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to draw with pencils and paper. One day, they find an old pencil in the attic. It is very long and thin. It has a metal tip and a pink thing on the other end.
+
+"What is this?" Ben asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a magic pencil," Lily says.
+
+They take the pencil and some paper to their room. They try to draw with the pencil, but nothing happens. The metal tip does not make any marks on the paper.
+
+"Maybe we need to rub the pink thing," Ben says.
+
+He rubs the pink thing on the paper. He sees some gray dust on the paper. He rubs harder. He makes a hole in the paper.
+
+"Oops!" Ben says.
+
+Lily laughs. She takes the pencil and rubs the pink thing on the wall. She makes a big gray mark on the wall.
+
+"Look! I made a drawing!" Lily says.
+
+She rubs more. She makes a smiley face on the wall.
+
+"Wow! That is a nice drawing!" Ben says.
+
+He rubs the pink thing on the wall too. He makes a sun and a cloud.
+
+They are having fun with the old pencil. They do not hear their mom coming upstairs.
+
+"Ben! Lily! What are you doing?" their mom says.
+
+She sees the gray marks on the wall. She is not happy.
+
+"Sorry, mom. We found an old pencil. We thought it was a magic pencil," Ben says.
+
+"It is not a magic pencil. It is an old pencil with an eraser. The pink thing is for erasing, not for drawing. You made a big mess on the wall," their mom says.
+
+She takes the pencil and the paper from them. She gives them a cloth and some soap.
+
+"You need to clean the wall. And no more drawing with pencils on the wall. Only on paper," their mom says.
+
+Ben and Lily are sad. They say sorry to their mom. They clean the wall. They learn a new word: eraser. They wish they had a real magic pencil.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big blue balloon in the sky. They want to catch it.
+
+"Look, look, a blue balloon!" Lily says.
+
+"Let's run and get it!" Tom says.
+
+They run after the balloon. They run very fast. But the balloon is faster. It flies away from them.
+
+"Oh no, we can't catch it!" Lily says.
+
+"Maybe we can ask someone to help us," Tom says.
+
+They see a man with a yellow hat. He has a bunch of bananas in his hand. He is eating one.
+
+"Excuse me, sir, can you help us?" Lily says.
+
+The man with the yellow hat looks at them. He smiles.
+
+"Help you with what, little ones?" he says.
+
+"We want to catch the blue balloon. It is in the sky. Can you give us a boost?" Tom says.
+
+The man with the yellow hat laughs.
+
+"I'm sorry, but I can't help you with that. The blue balloon is too high. It belongs to the wind. You can't catch it," he says.
+
+Lily and Tom feel sad. They really want the blue balloon.
+
+"Can we have a banana, then?" Lily says.
+
+The man with the yellow hat nods.
+
+"Sure, you can have a banana. Here you go. Bananas are good for you. They make you strong and happy," he says.
+
+He gives them each a banana. They peel them and eat them. They are sweet and yummy.
+
+"Thank you, sir. You are very nice," Tom says.
+
+"You're welcome, little ones. Enjoy your bananas. And don't be sad about the blue balloon. Maybe you will see it again someday. Or maybe you will find another balloon. There are many balloons in the world. And many colors, too. Not just blue," he says.
+
+Lily and Tom listen to him. They feel better. They smile.
+
+"Thank you, sir. You are very wise," Lily says.
+
+They finish their bananas. They wave goodbye to the man with the yellow hat. They go back to the park. They play some more. They have fun. They forget about the blue balloon. For now.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to go to the museum with Mom and Dad. The museum has many things to see and learn. Tom likes the big animals and the bones. Lily likes the shiny rocks and the colors.
+
+One day, they go to the museum again. Tom sees a sign that says "Deep Sea". He wants to go there. He tells Lily, "Come, let's go to the deep sea. It has fish and plants and water. It is fun."
+
+Lily shakes her head. She does not want to go to the deep sea. She says, "No, I don't like the deep sea. It is dark and scary and cold. I want to stay here. It has light and warm and pretty."
+
+Tom and Lily start to argue. They pull each other's arms. They say, "I need to go to the deep sea." "No, I need to stay here." Mom and Dad hear them. They are not happy. They say, "Stop, stop, you two. You are making noise and trouble. You can't always get what you want. You have to share and take turns."
+
+Tom and Lily feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Mom and Dad. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Tom." Mom and Dad smile. They say, "It's okay. We love you both. How about we split up? Mom will go with Tom to the deep sea. Dad will stay with Lily here. Then we will switch. That way, you can both see what you like."
+
+Tom and Lily agree. They hug Mom and Dad. They hug each other. They say, "Thank you, Mom and Dad. Thank you, Lily. Thank you, Tom." They go to the museum. They have fun. They learn new things. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the yard. They liked to run and jump and kick the ball. They saw a big box in the garage. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's bring the box out," Ben said. "Maybe there are toys or books or candy."
+
+"Okay," Lily said. "You pull and I push."
+
+They tried to move the box, but it was very heavy. They pulled and pushed hard, but the box did not move. Ben slipped and fell on the floor. He hit his head on the wall. He cried out loud.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! I hurt my head!" Ben said.
+
+Lily ran to him and hugged him. She was scared and sorry. She saw a bump on his head. She wanted to help him.
+
+"Don't cry, Ben. I will get Mommy. She will make you feel better," Lily said.
+
+She ran to the house and called Mommy. Mommy came quickly and saw Ben on the floor. She picked him up and kissed his head. She brought him to the couch and put some ice on his bump. She told him he was brave and strong.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy. Thank you, Lily. You are good to me," Ben said.
+
+He smiled and hugged them. He felt better. He did not want to play with the box anymore. He wanted to play with Lily and Mommy. They played a game and read a book and ate some cookies. They were happy.
+Sara liked to play hide and seek with her big brother Tom. They took turns to count and find each other in the house. Sara was good at hiding, but Tom was good at finding.
+
+One day, Sara had a clever idea. She ran to her room and hid behind the yellow curtain. She thought Tom would never look there. She remained very quiet and still, and waited for Tom to come.
+
+Tom counted to ten and started to look for Sara. He looked in the living room, the kitchen, the bathroom, but he could not find her. He wondered where she was. He went to her room and saw the yellow curtain. He thought it looked funny. He pulled it aside and saw Sara.
+
+"Boo!" he said. "I found you!"
+
+Sara was surprised and scared. She screamed and ran out of the room. Tom laughed and chased her. They had fun playing hide and seek. Sara learned that the yellow curtain was not a good hiding place.
+One day, Anna and Ben wanted to cook something for their mom. They were curious about the big pot on the stove. They climbed on a chair and looked inside. It was full of water and noodles.
+
+"Let's add some cheese," Anna said. She took a big block of cheese from the fridge and tried to cut it with a knife. But the knife was too sharp and she cut her finger. "Ow!" she cried. "It hurts!"
+
+Ben heard her and ran to help. He saw the blood on her finger and got scared. "This is an emergency!" he shouted. He grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her finger. Then he ran to the phone and dialed 911.
+
+"Hello, this is 911. What is your emergency?" a voice said.
+
+"Help! My sister cut her finger and it's bleeding!" Ben said.
+
+"OK, calm down. What is your name and address?" the voice asked.
+
+"I'm Ben and this is Anna. We live at 123 Maple Street. We were trying to cook for mom and we made a mess," Ben said.
+
+"Don't worry, Ben. We're sending someone to help you. Stay on the line and don't touch anything else. Where is your mom?" the voice said.
+
+"She's at work. She's a doctor. She helps people who are sick or hurt," Ben said.
+
+"That's very nice of her. You and Anna are very brave. Just wait for the ambulance and they will take care of you. And next time, don't cook without an adult, OK?" the voice said.
+
+"OK. Thank you. Bye," Ben said.
+
+He hung up the phone and hugged Anna. They waited for the ambulance and hoped mom would not be too mad. They learned a big lesson that day. Cooking can be fun, but it can also be dangerous.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together in the park. One evening, they see a big car near the park. A man and a woman get out of the car. They wear nice clothes and shiny things.
+
+"Wow, they are rich!" Ben says. "They have a big car and nice clothes and shiny things. I wish I was rich like them."
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She says, "But Ben, we have many things too. We have a park to play in, and a ball, and a kite, and a bike. We have our families and our friends. We have fun and we are happy. We are rich in our own way."
+
+Ben thinks too. He says, "You are right, Anna. We are rich in our own way. We don't need a big car or nice clothes or shiny things to be happy. We have everything we need."
+
+They smile and hug each other. They go back to playing in the park. They are happy and rich in their own way.
+
+The moral of the story is: Happiness does not depend on material things, but on what we have in our hearts.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big lion that could roar and move. They took the lion everywhere they went, and sometimes they pretended to be lions too.
+
+One day, they went to the park with their mom. They saw a big sandbox where they could dig and build. They wanted to play there, but they did not want to leave their lion alone. So they brought the lion with them and put it on the edge of the sandbox.
+
+They had fun digging and building, but they also made a lot of mess. They threw sand everywhere, and they did not listen to their mom when she told them to stop. They got very dirty, and so did their lion.
+
+Then, a big boy came to the sandbox. He saw the lion and wanted to play with it. He grabbed the lion and pulled it away from Tom and Sam. They got angry and ran after him. They shouted, "Give us back our lion! It is ours!"
+
+The big boy did not care. He laughed and said, "No, it is mine now! And I will do what I want with it!" He threw the lion on the ground and stomped on it. He broke the lion's legs and tail and head. He destroyed the lion.
+
+Tom and Sam cried. They ran to their mom and told her what happened. Their mom was sad and angry too. She went to the big boy and his mom and told them what he did. The big boy's mom was ashamed and scolded him. She made him apologize and pay for a new lion.
+
+But Tom and Sam did not want a new lion. They wanted their old lion, the one they loved and played with. They realized that they had been careless and selfish. They wished they had listened to their mom and taken care of their lion. They learned that they should respect their things and share with others.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not destroy what you do not own, and do not take what is not yours.
+Lily and Sam are friends who like to ride bikes. They have red bikes with two wheels and a bell. They ride on the sidewalk near their homes.
+
+One day, they see a big truck parked on the street. The truck has a sign that says "Magic Show". Lily and Sam are curious. They want to see what is inside the truck.
+
+"Let's go closer and look," Lily says. She urges Sam to follow her. She pedals faster and reaches the truck.
+
+"No, wait!" Sam says. He is scared. He thinks the truck might have a scary clown or a loud lion. He pedals slower and stays behind.
+
+Lily stops her bike and gets off. She walks to the back of the truck. She sees a door that is ajar. She is nosy. She wants to peek inside.
+
+"Hello, little girl," a voice says. Lily jumps and turns around. She sees a man with a hat and a cape. He is smiling. He is the magician.
+
+"Are you here for the magic show?" he asks.
+
+Lily is surprised. She does not know what to say. She looks for Sam. She sees him on his bike, far away. He is waving at her.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go!" Sam shouts. He is worried. He thinks the magician might do a trick on Lily.
+
+Lily decides to listen to Sam. She says sorry to the magician and runs to her bike. She pedals fast and joins Sam.
+
+They ride away from the truck. They are glad to be together.
+
+"Maybe we can watch the magic show later, when there are more people," Lily says.
+
+"Maybe," Sam says. "But I don't like clowns or lions."
+
+They laugh and ring their bells. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play together every day. One day, they decided to have a race with their bikes. They wanted to see who was faster and stronger.
+
+But before the race, they wanted to decorate their bikes. They had some stickers, ribbons and balloons. They put them on their bikes to make them look pretty and fun. Tom put a big star sticker on his bike. Lily put a pink ribbon on her bike.
+
+"Are you ready?" Tom asked Lily.
+
+"Yes, I am!" Lily answered.
+
+They went to the park, where they had a big path to race. They counted to three and started to pedal. They went very fast, trying to pass each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Tom's bike had a problem. His star sticker came off and got stuck in his wheel. His bike stopped and he fell down. He hurt his knee and started to cry.
+
+Lily saw what happened and stopped too. She went back to help Tom. She gave him a hug and a band-aid. She said, "Don't worry, Tom. It's OK. You are still my best friend. And your bike is still reliable. It was just a bad sticker."
+
+Tom smiled and thanked Lily. He said, "You are very kind, Lily. And you are very fast. You won the race. You are the best."
+
+They hugged again and decided to go home. They still liked their bikes, even if they were not perfect. They still liked to decorate them, even if they sometimes made problems. And they still liked to race, even if they sometimes fell down. But most of all, they liked each other, because they were reliable friends.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play and skip in the park. One day, they saw a big sign on a tree. It had a message on it. The message said: "Do not skip on the grass. It is bad for the flowers."
+
+Lily and Ben were curious. They wanted to see the flowers. They skipped on the grass to get closer. They saw many colors and shapes. They smelled sweet and nice. Lily and Ben smiled.
+
+But then, a man came. He was angry. He shouted at Lily and Ben. He said: "You are naughty children! You did not read the message! You are hurting the flowers! Go away!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They ran away. They felt sorry. They did not want to hurt the flowers. They did not want to make the man angry. They did not want to be naughty.
+
+They learned a lesson. They learned to read and follow the messages. They learned to respect the plants and animals. They learned to be regular and good children. They still liked to play and skip, but not on the grass. They played and skipped on the path. They were happy and kind.
+One day, a fox was very hungry. He saw a big farm with many chickens. He wanted to eat a chicken for his lunch. He was very sneaky and waited until the farmer was not looking. Then he ran to the chicken coop and tried to steal a chicken.
+
+But the farmer's dog saw the fox. The dog barked loudly and chased the fox. The fox was scared and ran away. He dropped the chicken on the ground. The chicken was happy and ran back to the coop.
+
+The fox was still hungry. He looked for another place to find food. He saw a hidden hole under a big tree. He thought there might be something tasty inside. He crawled into the hole and sniffed around.
+
+But the hole was not empty. It was the home of a badger. The badger was very angry and growled at the fox. The fox was surprised and tried to get out of the hole. But the badger was faster and bit the fox's tail. The fox yelped and ran away. He had a sore tail and no food.
+
+The fox was very sad and hungry. He wished he had not tried to steal the chicken and the badger's food. He learned a lesson that stealing is wrong and can get him into trouble. He decided to look for some berries and nuts instead. He hoped to find a friend who would share his food with him.
+Tommy likes to help his mom in the kitchen. He wants to make a cake for his dad's birthday. Mom gives him a package of cake mix and a bowl. She tells him to pour the mix into the bowl. Tommy is very excited. He opens the package and tries to pour the mix.
+
+But Tommy is clumsy. He pours too fast and too much. The mix spills out of the package and the bowl. It makes a big mess on the table and the floor. Mom sees the mess and gasps. Tommy feels bad. He says he is sorry.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs him. She says it is okay. She says they can clean up the mess together. She says she loves him and his dad will love the cake. Tommy feels happy. He helps mom clean up and make the cake. He can't wait to see his dad's face when he sees the cake. He hopes his dad will like it. He thinks his dad will like it. He knows his dad loves him.
+One day, an otter named Ollie wanted to hop on the rocks by the river. He was very enthusiastic and happy. He said to his mom, "Can I go hop on the rocks, please?"
+
+His mom said, "Yes, you can, but be careful. The rocks are slippery and the water is fast. Don't go too far from me."
+
+Ollie said, "OK, mom, I will be careful." He ran to the rocks and started to hop from one to another. He felt like he was flying. He saw some fish and frogs in the water. He wanted to catch them.
+
+He hopped to a big rock that was far from his mom. He leaned over the edge and reached for a fish. But the rock was too slippery and he lost his balance. He fell into the water with a splash.
+
+He tried to swim, but the water was too fast and strong. He was scared and cold. He called for his mom, but she could not hear him. He could not see her. He was swept away by the river.
+
+He never saw his mom or the rocks again.
+Sam likes to play with his toy cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He likes to make them go fast and turn on the floor. He pretends he is a mechanic and fixes the cars when they break.
+
+One day, he finds a hidden car under his bed. It is a big red car with shiny wheels. He has never seen it before. He wonders who gave it to him. He picks it up and tries to make it go. But the car does not move. It makes a funny noise.
+
+"Uh-oh, this car is broken," Sam says. "I need to fix it."
+
+He takes the car to his tool box. He has a hammer, a screwdriver, and some tape. He tries to open the car and see what is wrong. He bangs the car with the hammer. He twists the car with the screwdriver. He wraps the car with the tape.
+
+"Are you fixing your car, Sam?" his mom asks. She comes into his room and sees the mess.
+
+"Yes, mom, I am a mechanic," Sam says. "But this car is very broken. I found it under my bed. Do you know who gave it to me?"
+
+Mom smiles and hugs Sam. "That car was a gift from your grandpa. He gave it to you when you were a baby. He wanted you to have fun with it when you grow up. But you need to be gentle with it, Sam. It is not a toy. It is a model car. It has a battery inside. That is why it makes a noise. You need a switch to make it go."
+
+Mom shows Sam the switch on the bottom of the car. She flips it on and the car starts to move. It goes fast and turns on the floor. Sam claps his hands and laughs.
+
+"Wow, mom, this car is amazing! Thank you, grandpa! Can I play with it?"
+
+"Of course, Sam, you can play with it. But be careful not to break it. And remember to turn it off when you are done. It is a special car, Sam. It is a car that grandpa loves you very much."
+Tom and Anna liked to play on the farm. They liked to see the animals and help their dad and mom. One day, they saw a new animal in the barn. It was big and brown and had horns. It was a bull.
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"That is a bull," dad said. "He is a special bull. He is gifted. He can do things that other bulls cannot do."
+
+"Like what?" Anna asked.
+
+"Like this," dad said. He whistled and the bull came to him. He gave him a treat and rubbed his head. Then he said, "Raise, bull, raise." The bull lifted his front legs and stood on his hind legs. He looked very tall and strong.
+
+"Wow!" Tom and Anna said. They clapped their hands and laughed. The bull lowered his legs and mooed.
+
+"Can we play with him?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. He is gentle, but he is also very big and powerful. You have to respect him and listen to me," dad said.
+
+"Okay, dad," Tom and Anna said. They followed dad and the bull to the field. They had fun playing with the gifted bull. They learned how to whistle, how to give him treats, and how to say, "Raise, bull, raise." The bull liked them and did what they asked. He was a good friend.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big bird in the sky. The bird has a long neck and white feathers. It has big wings.
+
+"Look, Lily, a bird!" Tom says.
+
+"Wow, it is so big and pretty!" Lily says.
+
+They run after the bird. They want to see it better. The bird flies over a lake. The lake is icy. It is very cold.
+
+"Let's go to the lake, Tom!" Lily says.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The ice can break," Tom says.
+
+They get to the lake. They see the bird land on the ice. It slides on its feet. It looks funny.
+
+"Hi, bird!" Tom and Lily say.
+
+The bird looks at them. It makes a loud sound. It sounds like "honk".
+
+"Hello, children," the bird says. "I am a goose. I am spending the winter here. Where are you from?"
+
+Tom and Lily are surprised. They did not know the bird can talk.
+
+"We are from the town. We live in a house. We are playing outside," Tom says.
+
+"I see. Do you like the ice?" the goose asks.
+
+"It is shiny and smooth. But it is also cold and slippery," Lily says.
+
+"Yes, it is. But I have warm feathers and strong wings. I can fly away if I want to," the goose says.
+
+"Can we fly with you?" Tom and Lily ask.
+
+The goose laughs. It sounds like "honk honk".
+
+"Sorry, children, you cannot fly with me. You have no wings. You have arms and legs. You can run and jump and climb. Those are good things too," the goose says.
+
+"Maybe you can teach us how to slide on the ice," Tom says.
+
+"Maybe I can. But you have to be careful. The ice can break. And you have to wear warm clothes. The wind is icy too," the goose says.
+
+"OK, we will be careful. And we have hats and gloves and coats. Thank you, goose. You are very nice," Lily says.
+
+"You are welcome, children. You are very brave and curious. Come and play with me. But do not stay too long. Your parents might worry," the goose says.
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They smile. They go to the ice. They slide with the goose. They have fun. They make a new friend.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with matches. They found a box of matches in the kitchen and took it to their room. They wanted to see the fire and the smoke.
+
+"Look, Sara, I can make a match light up!" Ben said. He scratched a match on the box and it made a bright flame. He held it close to his face and smiled.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that's cool! Let me try!" Sara said. She took a match and scratched it too. She waved it in the air and laughed.
+
+But they did not know that matches were dangerous. They did not see that some of the matches fell on the floor and on the bed. They did not smell the smoke that filled the room. They did not hear the fire alarm that beeped.
+
+Soon, the fire grew bigger and wilder. It burned the curtains and the toys. It made a lot of heat and noise. Sara and Ben were scared and cried.
+
+"Help, help, fire!" they shouted.
+
+Their mom and dad heard them and ran to their room. They saw the fire and grabbed Sara and Ben. They carried them out of the house and called the firemen.
+
+The firemen came with a big truck and a hose. They sprayed water on the fire and put it out. They checked the house and made sure it was safe.
+
+Sara and Ben were very sorry for what they did. They hugged their mom and dad and said they were sorry.
+
+"Mom, dad, we were playing with matches and we made a fire. We did not know it was bad. We are sorry," they said.
+
+"Matches are not toys, Sara and Ben. They are very dangerous. They can hurt you and others. They can damage the house and the things in it. You should never play with matches again. Do you understand?" their mom and dad said.
+
+"Yes, mom, dad, we understand. We will never play with matches again. We learned our lesson. We love you," Sara and Ben said.
+
+Mom and dad were glad that Sara and Ben were safe and learned their lesson. They hugged them and said they loved them too. They told them to be careful and wise. They said that playing with fire can make you lose, not gain. They said that fire is wild, not fun. They said that matches are for adults, not kids.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys on the green table. They had cars, dolls, blocks and books. They were having fun and sharing nicely.
+
+But then, Tom saw a shiny red car that Lily had. He wanted it very much. He said to Lily, "Give me that car. It is mine."
+
+Lily said, "No, Tom. It is not yours. It is mine. I got it from Grandma. You have your own car. It is blue."
+
+Tom did not listen. He grabbed the red car from Lily and ran away. Lily was very sad and angry. She started to weep. She cried, "Tom, that is not fair. Give it back. You are a bad brother."
+
+Mom heard Lily's weep and came to see what was wrong. She saw Tom with the red car and Lily with tears. She said, "Tom, what did you do? Why did you take Lily's car? That is not nice. You have to share and be kind."
+
+Tom felt sorry. He knew he did a bad thing. He said, "I am sorry, Mom. I am sorry, Lily. I just liked the red car. But it is yours. Here, take it back. I will play with my blue car."
+
+Lily stopped weeping. She wiped her eyes and smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. I forgive you. You can play with my red car sometimes. And I can play with your blue car sometimes. We can share and be friends."
+
+Mom hugged them both and said, "That is very good, Tom and Lily. I am proud of you. Sharing is caring. Now, let's have some cookies and milk on the green table."
+Sara liked to sing very much. She sang all the time, at home, at school, and in the park. She wanted to be an opera singer when she grew up. She had a big voice and a big dream.
+
+One day, a man came to her school. He said he was a talent scout. He said he could make Sara a star. He said he would take her to a big city and sell her voice to many people. He said he would give her lots of money and fame. He said she only had to sign a paper and go with him.
+
+Sara was very excited. She thought this was her chance to be an opera singer. She did not ask her parents or her teacher. She did not think about her friends or her home. She signed the paper and went with the man.
+
+But the man was not a talent scout. He was a liar. He took Sara to a dry and dirty place. He made her sing for hours and hours. He did not give her any money or fame. He only gave her water and bread. He did not care about her voice or her dream. He only cared about himself.
+
+Sara was very sad and scared. She missed her parents and her teacher. She missed her friends and her home. She missed her voice and her dream. She wished she had not signed the paper and gone with the man. She wished she had listened to her heart and not to his words.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not trust strangers who offer you things that are too good to be true. They may want to use you and hurt you. Always ask your parents or your teacher before you make a big decision. Always think about what is important to you and what makes you happy. Always follow your dream, but do not lose yourself.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside in the sun. They run and jump and laugh. They see a big hill with green grass. They want to go there.
+
+"Let's collect grass on the hill!" Anna says.
+
+"OK, let's go!" Ben says.
+
+They hold hands and run to the hill. It is far away. They get tired. They stop and drink water. They see a bird in the sky. It is small and distant.
+
+"Look, a bird!" Ben says.
+
+"Tweet, tweet!" Anna says.
+
+They smile and run again. They reach the hill. It is soft and cool. They sit down and rest. They see many blades of grass. They are different shapes and sizes. They pick some and make a pile.
+
+"I have more grass than you!" Anna says.
+
+"No, I have more grass than you!" Ben says.
+
+They count their grass. They have the same amount. They laugh.
+
+"Let's make something with our grass!" Anna says.
+
+"OK, what can we make?" Ben says.
+
+They think and think. They have an idea. They use their grass to make a nest. They put it on the ground. They pretend to be birds. They sit in the nest and sing.
+
+"Tweet, tweet, we are birds!" Anna says.
+
+"Tweet, tweet, we are happy!" Ben says.
+
+They hug and giggle. They play in the grass until the sun goes down. They are friends. They have fun.
+Tom and Mia are playing in the park. They see a big dog with a bandage on his leg. The dog is brown and white, but he is very filthy. He has mud and dirt all over his fur.
+
+"Look at that dog, he is so dirty!" Tom says. He runs to the dog and tries to touch his bandage. "Does it hurt, doggy? Why do you have a bandage?"
+
+The dog growls and barks at Tom. He does not like strangers. He does not like being teased. He tries to bite Tom's hand, but Tom runs away.
+
+"Tom, that is not nice!" Mia says. She is scared of the dog. She does not want to play with him. "You should not tease the dog. He is sick and he needs help."
+
+Mia goes to the dog and talks to him softly. She says, "I am sorry, doggy. Tom is silly. He does not know how to be kind. You are a good dog. You are brave and strong."
+
+The dog stops growling and barking. He wags his tail and licks Mia's face. He likes Mia. She is gentle and sweet. He lets her touch his bandage.
+
+"See, Tom, the dog is nice. He just needs some love and care." Mia says. She smiles at the dog. "Maybe we can be his friends. Maybe we can help him find a home."
+
+Tom feels sorry for teasing the dog. He says, "I am sorry, doggy. I was mean. I did not mean to hurt you. Can we be friends?"
+
+The dog barks and wags his tail. He likes Tom too. He forgives him. He thinks they can be friends.
+
+The end.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play in their big house. Their house is rich. It has many rooms and toys. Sara and Tom have their own beds. But they like to sleep together.
+
+One day, Sara and Tom find a big bowl in the kitchen. It has flour, eggs, milk and sugar. They want to make a cake. They climb on a chair and take a spoon. They start to mix the things in the bowl.
+
+"Mix, mix, mix!" Sara says. "We are good cooks!"
+
+"Yes, we are!" Tom says. "But we need something else. Something sweet and colorful."
+
+Tom sees a jar on the shelf. It has jelly beans. He takes the jar and pours some jelly beans into the bowl. They mix them with the other things.
+
+"Wow, look!" Sara says. "Our cake is so pretty!"
+
+They are happy. They take the bowl and go to their room. They put the bowl on their bed. They want to eat the cake.
+
+But they hear a noise. It is their mom. She is coming upstairs. She smells something strange.
+
+"Sara, Tom, what are you doing?" she asks. She opens the door and sees the mess. She sees the bowl on the bed. She sees the flour, the eggs, the milk, the sugar and the jelly beans. She is not happy.
+
+"Sara, Tom, this is not a cake. This is a disaster. You cannot mix these things. You cannot put them on your bed. You have to clean this up. Now!"
+
+Sara and Tom are sad. They did not mean to make a mess. They just wanted to have fun. They say sorry to their mom. They help her clean the room. They promise not to mix things again.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play together every day. They had a big box of toys and they shared them nicely. Sometimes they pretended to be a family. Lily was the mom and Ben was the dad. They had a baby doll and a dog toy.
+
+One day, they decided to have a marriage. They put on their nicest clothes and found some flowers. They asked Lily's mom to be the judge. She smiled and said yes. She gave them some rings made of paper. Lily and Ben said, "I do" and kissed each other on the cheek.
+
+They were very happy. They hugged and danced and ate some cake. They said they were a successful marriage. They played with their baby and their dog. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Lily's mom said it was time to go. She had to take Lily to the doctor. Lily and Ben were sad. They did not want to say goodbye. They wanted to play more.
+
+Lily's mom said, "Don't worry, you can see each other tomorrow. It's not a long time. You can keep your rings and your toys. I'll be back soon."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They hugged and said, "I love you". They gave each other their toys. Lily took the baby and Ben took the dog. They waved and smiled.
+
+But when Lily's mom drove away, Ben felt very lonely. He looked at his ring and his dog. He missed Lily. He wished she was there. He felt like she disappeared. He started to cry.
+
+He ran to his mom and hugged her. He said, "Mom, I miss Lily. She's my wife. She disappeared. I want her back."
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "I know, sweetie. I know. She'll be back soon. She didn't disappear. She's just at the doctor. She'll be fine. She loves you too. You're a successful marriage. You'll see her tomorrow. Don't cry."
+
+Ben sniffed and nodded. He hoped his mom was right. He hoped Lily was okay. He hoped he would see her tomorrow. He hoped they would play again. He hoped they would be happy.
+Lily and Tom wanted to visit their grandma, who lived in a small house in the woods. They loved their grandma, who always gave them hugs and cookies and told them stories. But they did not like the long walk to her house, because they had to pass by a big cave where an old bear lived. The old bear was grumpy and scary, and sometimes he roared at them when they walked by.
+
+One day, as they were walking to their grandma's house, they saw the old bear sleeping outside his cave. He looked very big and furry, and his snoring was very loud. Lily and Tom were afraid, but they did not want to wake him up. They tiptoed past him, holding hands and whispering.
+
+"Shh, don't make any noise," Lily said.
+
+"I wish we had a bike or a car," Tom said.
+
+They reached their grandma's house and knocked on the door. Their grandma opened it and smiled. She hugged them and invited them in. She had baked some cookies and made some lemonade for them. They sat at the table and ate and drank and talked.
+
+"Did you see the old bear on your way here?" their grandma asked.
+
+"Yes, we did. He was sleeping outside his cave. He was very big and scary," Lily said.
+
+"Don't worry, my dears. He is old and harmless. He won't hurt you. He just likes to sleep and eat and roar. He is lonely, you know. He has no friends or family," their grandma said.
+
+"Really? That's sad. Maybe we can be his friends," Tom said.
+
+Their grandma laughed. "Maybe you can. But you have to be careful and respectful. He is still a wild animal, after all. Maybe you can bring him some cookies next time you visit me. He might like that."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They liked the idea of making the old bear happy. They finished their cookies and lemonade and thanked their grandma. They hugged her and said goodbye. They walked back to the cave, where the old bear was still sleeping. They left some cookies on a big rock near him. They hoped he would find them and enjoy them. They waved at him and ran away.
+
+The old bear woke up and smelled something sweet. He opened his eyes and saw the cookies on the rock. He was surprised and curious. He got up and walked to the rock. He tasted the cookies and liked them. He wondered who had left them for him. He looked around and saw two small figures running in the distance. He recognized them as the children who often walked by his cave. He felt a warm feeling in his chest. He roared, but this time it was not a roar of anger or fear. It was a roar of gratitude and friendship.
+Lily and Sam were friends who liked to play in the park. They saw a big slide that looked fun. Lily wanted to go first, because she was bossy. She said to Sam, "I will climb the slide and get the medal. You wait here."
+
+Sam did not like to wait. He wanted to climb the slide too. He said to Lily, "No, you are not the boss of me. I will climb with you. Maybe I will get the medal."
+
+Lily and Sam climbed the slide together. They pushed and pulled each other. They were not nice. They reached the top of the slide and saw the medal. It was shiny and red. They both wanted it.
+
+They grabbed the medal at the same time. They pulled and tugged. They did not share. The medal broke in half. They both fell down the slide. They were sad and hurt.
+
+They looked at the broken medal. They felt sorry. They said to each other, "I am sorry. I was mean. You are my friend. Can we share the medal?"
+
+They hugged and smiled. They put the medal back together. They took turns wearing it. They slid down the slide again. They had fun. They learned to be nice.
+Tim and Anna like to play in the park. They run and jump and laugh. But one day, they see a big shadow on the grass. It looks like a monster. They are scared.
+
+"Who is that?" Tim asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a bad guy," Anna says.
+
+They want to run away, but the shadow moves with them. It follows them everywhere. They can't get rid of it.
+
+"Let's fight it!" Tim says. He picks up a stick and swings it at the shadow. But the shadow does not feel it. It just gets bigger and bigger.
+
+"Help!" Anna cries. She throws a stone at the shadow. But the shadow does not care. It just laughs and laughs.
+
+They are very sad. They think the shadow will hurt them. They don't know what to do.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is their mom. She is looking for them.
+
+"Tim! Anna! Where are you?" she calls.
+
+They see her coming. They run to her and hug her. They tell her about the shadow.
+
+She smiles and points to the sky. She shows them the sun and the clouds.
+
+"It is not a monster. It is not a bad guy. It is just your shadow. It is made by the sun and your body. It can't hurt you. It can only copy you," she says.
+
+They look at the shadow again. They see that it is true. It is just their shadow. They feel silly and happy.
+
+They say sorry to the shadow. They ask it to play with them. They make funny shapes and dances with their shadow. They have fun.
+
+They are not scared anymore. They are not sad anymore. They are friends with their shadow.
+Ben and Mia went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, but their favorite was the monkey. The monkey was brown and furry, and he liked to swing on the ropes and make funny noises.
+
+"Look, mom, the monkey is blinking at me!" Ben said, pointing at the monkey.
+
+"Maybe he wants to say hello," mom said. "Can you wave to him?"
+
+Ben and Mia waved to the monkey, and the monkey waved back. He also stuck out his tongue and scratched his head. Ben and Mia laughed.
+
+"Can we feed the monkey, mom?" Mia asked.
+
+"Sorry, sweetie, we can't," mom said. "The zookeeper said we have to follow the rules and not give any food to the animals. They have their own special diet."
+
+The monkey seemed to understand. He nodded his head and gave a thumbs up. He was an obedient monkey. He did not want to get sick or make trouble.
+
+Ben and Mia smiled. They liked the monkey. They said goodbye to him and went to see the other animals. The monkey blinked at them one last time and waved. He was happy to have made some new friends.
+Lila was a gifted girl. She could whistle very well. She liked to whistle songs and make her friends happy. She whistled when she played, when she ate, and when she slept.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a big tree with many leaves. She wanted to whistle to the tree and see if it would answer. She climbed up the tree and sat on a branch. She whistled a hello to the tree.
+
+But the tree did not whistle back. Instead, the wind whistled to Lila. It blew softly and made the leaves rustle. It sounded like a song. Lila smiled and whistled along with the wind. She felt like the wind was her friend.
+
+She whistled and whistled until it was time to go home. She said goodbye to the tree and the wind. She climbed down the tree and ran to her mom. She told her mom about her new friend, the wind. Her mom hugged her and said she was proud of her. Lila was happy. She whistled all the way home.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play with their bikes. One day, they saw a big truck with many boxes on it. The truck stopped at their house and a man came out. He had a paper in his hand and a hat on his head.
+
+"Hello, I am here to deliver a surprise for you," the man said. "Can you help me find your mom or dad?"
+
+Tom and Anna ran to the door and called for their mom. She came out and smiled at the man. She took the paper and signed it. Then she looked at the boxes.
+
+"What is this?" she asked.
+
+"It is a gift from your uncle. He sent you a new playhouse for your backyard. It has a slide, a swing, and a sandbox. You can build it with your dad," the man said.
+
+Tom and Anna were very happy. They thanked the man and helped him unload the boxes. They could not wait to see their new playhouse.
+
+But there was a problem. One of the boxes had a hole in it. And inside the box, there was a dangerous animal. It was a snake. The snake was angry and hungry. It slithered out of the box and hid behind a bush.
+
+Tom and Anna did not see the snake. They were busy looking at the other boxes. They wanted to open them and see the parts of the playhouse.
+
+"Can we open them now, mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"Not now, sweetie. We have to wait for dad. He will be home soon. He will help us build the playhouse. Why don't you go inside and have a snack?" mom said.
+
+Tom and Anna nodded. They were hungry too. They said goodbye to the man and went inside. They did not know that the snake was watching them. The snake was waiting for a chance to attack. It was a very bad surprise.
+Sara and Tom are twins, but they are very different. Sara likes to comb her long hair and wear pretty dresses. Tom likes to run and play with cars and balls. Sara and Tom do not like to share their toys.
+
+One day, Sara and Tom are playing in their room. Sara has a new comb that is pink and shiny. She combs her hair and looks in the mirror. She feels happy. Tom sees the comb and wants to play with it. He thinks it is a car. He grabs the comb from Sara and makes vroom noises.
+
+"Hey, that is my comb!" Sara says. "Give it back!"
+
+"No, it is my car!" Tom says. "It is fun!"
+
+Sara is angry. She tries to take the comb from Tom, but he holds it tight. Sara pinches Tom on his arm. Tom feels pain. He pinches Sara back on her cheek. Sara feels pain too. They both start to cry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the room. She sees Sara and Tom crying and holding the comb. She is not happy.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom says. "Why are you pinching each other?"
+
+"Sara pinched me first!" Tom says.
+
+"Tom pinched me back!" Sara says.
+
+Mom takes the comb from them and puts it on the table. She hugs Sara and Tom and wipes their tears.
+
+"Pinching is not nice," Mom says. "It hurts. You should not pinch anyone, even if you are angry. You should use your words and ask nicely."
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Sara and Tom say.
+
+Mom smiles. "It is okay. I know you are different, but you are also the same. You are both my children and I love you. You should love each other too and share your toys."
+
+Sara and Tom nod. They hug Mom and say sorry to each other. They decide to play together with the comb and the cars and the balls. They feel happy.
+Ben and Mia loved to play with their toy boats. They had many boats of different colors and sizes. They liked to make them sail in the bathtub, the sink, or the pool.
+
+One day, their mom said, "I have a surprise for you. We are going to the museum. They have a big display of real boats. You can see how they look and learn about them."
+
+Ben and Mia were very enthusiastic. They put on their shoes and coats and followed their mom to the car. They could not wait to see the boats.
+
+At the museum, they saw many boats. Some were small and some were big. Some were old and some were new. Some had sails and some had motors. Some were for fishing and some were for exploring.
+
+"Look, mom, this boat is like my red boat!" Ben said, pointing to a model of a sailboat.
+
+"And this boat is like my blue boat!" Mia said, pointing to a model of a motorboat.
+
+They asked their mom many questions about the boats. She told them the names of the boats, where they came from, and what they did.
+
+Ben and Mia had a lot of fun. They learned a lot about boats. They thanked their mom for taking them to the museum. They decided to make a display of their own boats at home. They wanted to show their dad and their friends how much they loved boats.
+Sara was very scared. She had to go to the hospital for an operation. She did not know what an operation was, but she knew it meant that the doctors would do something to her body. She did not want the doctors to touch her. She wanted to stay at home with her mom and dad and her teddy bear.
+
+When she got to the hospital, she saw a big sign that said "Welcome". She did not feel welcome. She felt sad and lonely. She held her mom's hand very tight. Her mom said, "Don't worry, Sara. The doctors are very nice and they will help you feel better. They will give you some medicine that will make you sleep, and when you wake up, the operation will be over."
+
+Sara did not like the sound of that. She did not want to sleep. She wanted to play and have fun. She did not want to feel better. She did not feel sick. She did not understand why she needed an operation.
+
+She met a nurse who smiled at her and said, "Hello, Sara. I'm Nurse Lily. I'm here to take care of you. You have a very unusual operation today. Do you know what it is?" Sara shook her head. She did not want to know. She wanted to go home. Nurse Lily said, "You have a very special gift inside you. You have a twin sister who is growing in your belly. She is very small and weak, and she needs to come out so she can live. The doctors will make a small cut in your belly and take her out. Then they will close the cut and put a bandage on it. You will be a big sister, Sara. Isn't that amazing?"
+
+Sara was very surprised. She had a sister in her belly? She did not know that. She did not know how she got there. She did not know what a twin was. She did not know if she wanted a sister. She said, "Will it hurt?" Nurse Lily said, "No, it won't hurt. The medicine will make you feel nothing. And when you wake up, you will see your sister. She will be very tiny and cute. She will need a lot of love and care. You can help your mom and dad with that. You can hold her and sing to her and give her your teddy bear. You will be the best sister ever, Sara."
+
+Sara thought about it. She liked the idea of having a sister. She liked the idea of holding her and singing to her and giving her her teddy bear. She liked the idea of being the best sister ever. She said, "Okay, I will do it. I will have the operation. I will meet my sister." Nurse Lily hugged her and said, "You are very brave, Sara. I'm proud of you. Come on, let's go to the operation room. The doctors are waiting for you."
+
+Sara went with Nurse Lily to the operation room. She saw the doctors and the machines and the bed. She was still scared, but she was also curious. She said goodbye to her mom and dad and climbed on the bed. The doctors gave her the medicine and she fell asleep. She dreamed of her sister.
+
+When she woke up, she saw her mom and dad and Nurse Lily smiling at her. They said, "Welcome back, Sara. You did great. The operation was a success. Your sister is here. Do you want to see her?" Sara nodded. She wanted to see her sister. They brought her a small basket with a blanket and a baby inside. Sara looked at the baby and saw that she had the same hair and eyes as her. She was very tiny and cute. She said, "Hello, sister. I'm Sara. I'm your twin. I love you." The baby made a small noise and moved her hand. Sara smiled and held her hand. She felt happy and warm. She said, "Thank you, doctors. Thank you, Nurse Lily. Thank you, mom and dad. Thank you, sister. You are the best gift ever."
+
+The moral of the story is: Sometimes we have to face our fears and do things that we don't understand, but they can lead to wonderful surprises and blessings. We should be grateful for the people who help us and love us, and for the gifts that we have. We should also be kind and caring to others, especially to our family.
+Sara and Tom are playing in the park. They see a small ice cream truck. They run to the truck and ask for ice cream.
+
+"Can I have a cone with chocolate and vanilla cream, please?" Sara says.
+
+"Me too, me too!" Tom says.
+
+The ice cream man smiles and gives them their cones. They pay him with their coins and say thank you.
+
+They sit on a bench and lick their ice cream. It is cold and sweet and yummy. They are very happy.
+
+But then, a big dog comes to the park. It sees their ice cream and wants some too. It barks and runs to them.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Sara says. "This is our ice cream!"
+
+But the dog does not listen. It jumps on the bench and tries to grab their cones.
+
+Sara and Tom are scared. They kneel on the ground and hold their ice cream high. They hope the dog will leave them alone.
+
+"Help, help!" they shout. "There is a bad dog here!"
+
+A lady hears them and comes to the park. She sees the dog and the children. She is the dog's owner.
+
+"Rex, stop that!" she says. "You are being naughty!"
+
+She grabs the dog's collar and pulls him away. She says sorry to Sara and Tom.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. He is a good dog, but he loves ice cream too much. He did not mean to scare you."
+
+She gives them a napkin to wipe their faces. She also gives them some extra coins to buy more ice cream.
+
+"Here, take this. You can get another cone if you want. And don't be afraid of Rex. He is friendly, really."
+
+Sara and Tom smile and say thank you. They are not scared anymore. They go back to the truck and get more ice cream. They share some with Rex. He licks their hands and wags his tail. They are all friends now.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play pretend. Sam likes to be a spy and Ben likes to be a detective. They have suits and hats and glasses. They also have a dog named Max.
+
+One day, they decide to go on a mission. Sam says, "I am the spy. I will find the clues. You are the detective. You will follow me and help me." Ben nods and puts on his suit and hat. Max wags his tail and follows them too.
+
+They go outside and look around. Sam sees a red car. He says, "That is the bad guy's car. He has a secret plan. We have to stop him." He runs to the car and looks inside. Ben and Max run after him.
+
+But the car is empty. Sam says, "The bad guy is not here. He must have gone somewhere else. Let's look for more clues." He runs to the street and looks for signs. Ben and Max follow him again.
+
+But the street is busy. There are many cars and people and noises. Sam says, "This is too hard. We need a better place to spy. Let's go to the park." He runs to the park and looks for trees and flowers. Ben and Max follow him once more.
+
+But the park is crowded too. There are many kids and dogs and toys. Sam says, "This is too noisy. We need a quieter place to spy. Let's go to the library." He runs to the library and looks for books and maps. Ben and Max follow him yet again.
+
+But the library is closed. There is a sign that says, "Sorry, we are closed for cleaning." Sam says, "This is too bad. We can't spy here. We need another place to spy. Let's go to..." He stops and thinks.
+
+Ben is tired of running and following. He says, "Sam, you are too bossy. You always tell me what to do and where to go. You never ask me what I want to do. I don't want to spy anymore. I want to play something else."
+
+Sam is surprised. He says, "But I am the spy. You are the detective. We have to spy. It is fun." Ben says, "No, it is not fun. It is boring. You always spy on the same things. You never find anything new. You never let me choose."
+
+Sam is sad. He says, "But I like to spy. I like to find clues. I like to wear my suit and hat and glasses. I like to have you and Max as my partners. I don't want to play alone."
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He says, "I like to play with you and Max too. But I don't like to spy all the time. I like to play other things too. Like tag or hide and seek or catch. Can we play something else sometimes?"
+
+Sam nods. He says, "Okay. We can play something else sometimes. But can we still play spy sometimes too?" Ben nods. He says, "Okay. We can still play spy sometimes too. But can we take turns to choose what to spy on?" Sam nods. He says, "Okay. We can take turns to choose what to spy on. But can we still wear our suits and hats and glasses?" Ben nods. He says, "Okay. We can still wear our suits and hats and glasses. But can we also wear other things too?" Sam nods. He says, "Okay. We can also wear other things too. But can we still have Max as our dog?" Ben nods. He says, "Okay. We can still have Max as our dog. But can we also pet him and feed him and play with him too?" Sam nods. He says, "Okay. We can also pet him and feed him and play with him too. But can we still be brothers?" Ben nods. He says, "Okay. We can still be brothers. But can we also be friends?" Sam nods. He says, "Okay. We can also be friends. But can we also hug?" Ben nods. He says, "Okay. We can also hug." They hug and smile. Max barks and licks their faces. They are happy. They are brothers and friends and spies and detectives and more. They have suits and hats and glasses and more. They have Max and each other and more. They have fun.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the kitchen. One night, they saw a big, round moon in the sky. It was bright and shiny and made them happy.
+
+"Let's make a cake for the moon!" Lily said. "Maybe it will come down and share it with us."
+
+"Okay!" Ben said. "What do we need?"
+
+They looked around and found some flour, sugar, eggs, butter and milk. They put them in a big bowl and took turns to stir. Stir, stir, stir. The mixture became smooth and creamy.
+
+"Can I lick the spoon?" Ben asked.
+
+"Me too!" Lily said.
+
+They both licked the spoon and smiled. It was sweet and yummy.
+
+They poured the mixture into a cake pan and put it in the oven. They waited and watched as the cake rose and turned golden. It smelled good and made their tummies rumble.
+
+"It's done!" Lily said. "Let's take it out and decorate it."
+
+They put some icing, sprinkles and candles on the cake. They made it look like the moon, with a chubby face and a smile.
+
+"Happy birthday, moon!" they said together. They blew out the candles and cut a slice for each of them.
+
+They went outside and sat on the grass. They looked at the moon and held up their cake slices.
+
+"Hello, moon!" they said. "We made you a cake. Do you like it?"
+
+The moon winked at them and seemed to say thank you. It made them feel warm and cozy.
+
+They ate their cake and shared some with their dog, Spot. They sang a song and told stories. They had a lot of fun.
+
+They hugged each other and said good night. They went back inside and snuggled in their beds. They dreamed of the moon and the cake and the stars. They were happy.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play outside at night. They had a big yard with a swing and a slide and a sandbox. They also had a huge flashlight that they used to make shadows on the wall.
+
+One night, they saw a bright round thing in the sky. It was the moon. They wondered what it was like to go there. They decided to pretend they were astronauts and explore the moon.
+
+They put on their helmets and backpacks and took their flashlight. They said goodbye to their mom and dad and went to the yard. They climbed on the swing and pretended it was a rocket. They counted down from ten and then shouted, "Blast off!"
+
+They swung higher and higher until they felt like they were flying. They saw the moon getting closer and closer. They were so excited. They wanted to see what was on the other side of the moon.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The swing broke and they fell to the ground. They were not hurt, but they were very scared. They dropped their flashlight and it rolled away. They could not see anything. They could not find each other. They were separated.
+
+They started to cry and call for each other. They also called for their mom and dad. They hoped they would hear them and come to help them.
+
+Their mom and dad heard their cries and ran to the yard. They saw the broken swing and the flashlight. They looked for Tom and Anna. They found them hiding behind a bush. They hugged them and comforted them. They told them they were sorry and they were proud of them for being brave.
+
+They took them inside and gave them some cookies and milk. They also gave them a new flashlight. They told them they could play outside again, but they had to be careful and stay together. They also told them they could learn more about the moon by reading books and watching videos.
+
+Tom and Anna nodded and smiled. They were happy to be safe and together. They still wanted to go to the moon, but they knew they had to wait until they were older. They also knew they had to stick with each other, no matter what. They hugged each other and said, "We love you, moon buddy."
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. But today it is raining. The sky is gray and the water is falling. Lila and Ben are sad.
+
+"Can we go out and play?" Lila asks her mom.
+
+"No, it is too wet and cold. You will get sick. You can play inside with your toys." Mom says.
+
+Lila and Ben do not like to play inside. They are bored. They look out the window and see a big puddle. The puddle is shiny and splashy.
+
+"Look, Ben, a puddle! Let's go and jump in it!" Lila says.
+
+She puts on her boots and her coat. She grabs Ben's hand and runs to the door.
+
+"Wait, Lila, we need to ask mom first." Ben says.
+
+He is a good boy. He does not want to make mom angry.
+
+But Lila does not listen. She opens the door and pulls Ben outside. They run to the puddle and jump in it. They laugh and splash and have fun.
+
+But mom sees them. She is not happy. She comes outside and calls them.
+
+"Lila, Ben, come here right now! You are wet and dirty. You did not listen to me. You are in trouble." Mom says.
+
+Lila and Ben stop jumping. They look at mom. They are scared. They walk to mom. Mom is holding a towel. She wipes their faces and hands.
+
+"Look at your lips. They are blue. You are cold. And look at your clothes. They are ugly. They are muddy and wet. You need to change them." Mom says.
+
+She takes them inside. She gives them dry clothes and warm soup. She tells them to sit on the couch and watch TV. She says they cannot go out and play until the rain stops.
+
+Lila and Ben are sorry. They hug mom and say they are sorry. They say they will listen to her next time. They watch TV and wait for the rain to stop. They hope it will stop soon. They still want to play outside. But they do not want to make mom angry again. They love mom. Mom loves them.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play in the park. They have a big bucket of water and some cups. They splash each other with water and laugh.
+
+"Look, Sara, a fancy book!" Tom says. He sees a shiny book on a bench. It has pictures of animals and flowers. He runs to the bench and picks up the book.
+
+"Tom, wait!" Sara says. She follows him. She wants to see the book too.
+
+But the book is not theirs. It belongs to a lady who is sitting on the grass. She is reading a magazine and does not see Tom and Sara.
+
+Tom opens the book and shows it to Sara. "Wow, so pretty!" Sara says. She points to a picture of a butterfly.
+
+But then, oh no! Tom drops the book in the bucket of water. The book gets wet and soggy. The pages stick together. The pictures fade.
+
+"Tom, what did you do?" Sara says. She is scared and sad. She likes the book.
+
+The lady hears them and looks up. She sees her book in the water. She is angry and shocked. She runs to the bench and grabs the book.
+
+"Hey, you naughty kids! This is my book! You ruined it!" she says. She shakes the book and water drips from it. She glares at Tom and Sara.
+
+Tom and Sara are sorry and ashamed. They did not mean to hurt the book. They did not know it was hers.
+
+"We are sorry, lady. We like your book. We just want to see it," Tom says.
+
+"Sorry is not enough. This book is very special to me. It was a gift from my friend. It is very fancy and expensive. You have to pay for it!" she says.
+
+Tom and Sara do not have any money. They only have water and cups. They do not know what to do. They start to cry.
+
+The lady sees them crying and feels a little sorry for them. She remembers that they are just kids. They made a mistake. Maybe she was too harsh.
+
+"Okay, okay, stop crying. I forgive you. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will never touch other people's things without asking. And you have to promise me that you will take good care of books. Books are precious and beautiful. They are not toys. Do you understand?" she says.
+
+Tom and Sara nod. They understand. They promise.
+
+"Good. Now, go and play. But be careful and respectful. And here, take this magazine. It has some pictures too. Maybe you will like it," she says.
+
+She gives them the magazine and smiles. Tom and Sara smile back. They say thank you and sorry again. They take the magazine and run to the slide. They are happy and relieved.
+
+The lady looks at her book and sighs. It is ruined. But she is not angry anymore. She is glad that she taught Tom and Sara a lesson. Maybe they will learn to love books as much as she does. She hopes so. She loves books.
+Lily and Max were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Max was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then looked for Max. She saw his red hat behind a big tree. She ran to the tree and shouted, "I found you, Max!"
+
+Max jumped out from behind the tree and ran away. He did not want to surrender. He wanted to keep playing. He looked for another hiding spot. He saw a small house with a slide and a swing. He ran to the house and climbed inside. He thought Lily would not find him there.
+
+But Lily was smart and fast. She followed Max's footsteps and saw the house. She heard Max's whistle. He always whistled when he was happy. She smiled and crept to the house. She peeked inside and saw Max sitting on the floor. He did not see her. She said in a loud voice, "Boo!"
+
+Max was startled and fearful. He screamed and dropped his whistle. He saw Lily's face and knew he was caught. He said, "You scared me, Lily! You are a good seeker!"
+
+Lily laughed and said, "You are a good hider, Max! But you have to surrender now. You are it!"
+
+Max nodded and said, "OK, I surrender. You win, Lily! But next time, I will find you!"
+
+They hugged and went to the slide and the swing. They had fun playing hide and seek. They were good friends.
+Tommy wanted a new toy. He saw a shiny car in the store. He asked his mom to buy it for him, but she said no. She said they had enough toys at home. Tommy was sad and angry.
+
+He saw his mom looking at some clothes. He had an idea. He sneaked back to the toy aisle and grabbed the car. He hid it under his shirt and ran to the exit. He thought he was smart and he would succeed.
+
+But he was wrong. A man in a blue shirt stopped him. He was a security guard. He asked Tommy what he had under his shirt. Tommy felt guilty. He knew he did a bad thing. He started to cry.
+
+The guard took the car and called his mom. She came and saw what Tommy had done. She was very upset and disappointed. She said sorry to the guard and thanked him. She took Tommy by the hand and walked out of the store.
+
+She said to Tommy, "You know stealing is wrong, right? You have to earn your toys, not take them. How would you feel if someone took your toys?" Tommy nodded. He felt sorry and ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I won't do it again. I love you." She hugged him and said, "I love you too, but you have to learn from your mistake. You have to be honest and good." Tommy agreed. He learned a lesson that day. He never tried to steal a toy again.
+Tom and Anna like to play in the park. They see many things in the park. They see trees, flowers, dogs, and birds. They like to watch the birds fly and sing.
+
+One day, they see a friendly bird on a branch. The bird is yellow and black. It has a red hat on its head. The bird looks at Tom and Anna and says, "Hello, hello, hello!"
+
+Tom and Anna are surprised. They have never heard a bird talk before. They say, "Hello, bird! What is your name?"
+
+The bird says, "My name is Bob. I am a parrot. I can talk like people. Do you want to be my friends?"
+
+Tom and Anna nod. They want to be friends with Bob. They ask, "Where do you live, Bob? How did you learn to talk?"
+
+Bob says, "I live in a big cage in a house. My owner is a nice lady. She teaches me words and gives me seeds. Sometimes she lets me out to fly in the park. I like the park. It is fun and beautiful."
+
+Tom and Anna think Bob is very smart and cool. They want to learn more about him. They discuss with Bob about his life, his likes, and his dislikes. They laugh and have fun. They are happy to meet a friendly bird who can talk.
+Sam and Mia liked to play in the park. They had a big box that they used as a boat. They would imagine that they were sailing on the sea, and having adventures.
+
+One day, they saw a big dog near the pond. The dog was barking and running around. Sam and Mia were scared of the dog. They thought it was dangerous.
+
+"Let's go to our boat!" Sam said. "The dog can't catch us there!"
+
+They ran to their box and climbed inside. They pretended that they were on the water, and that the dog was a shark.
+
+"Look out, Mia!" Sam shouted. "The shark is coming!"
+
+Mia grabbed a stick and waved it at the dog. She said, "Go away, shark! You can't eat us!"
+
+The dog stopped barking and looked at them. It wagged its tail and licked its nose. It was not a dangerous shark. It was a friendly dog.
+
+The dog came closer to the box and sniffed it. It wanted to play with Sam and Mia.
+
+Sam and Mia saw that the dog was not scary. They smiled and petted the dog. They said, "Hello, dog! Do you want to be our friend?"
+
+The dog barked happily and licked their faces. It did want to be their friend.
+
+Sam and Mia decided to share their boat with the dog. They said, "You can be our captain, dog! We will sail with you!"
+
+They all had fun in the park. They imagined that they were on a boat, and that they had a new friend.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big bird in the sky. It was white and had long wings.
+
+"Look, an angel!" Lily said.
+
+"No, that's not an angel. That's a weird bird," Ben said.
+
+They watched the bird fly closer. It had a face like a person and a halo on its head. It smiled at them and said hello.
+
+"Hello, angel," Lily said.
+
+"Hello, children. I'm not an angel. I'm a fairy," the bird said.
+
+"A fairy? What's a fairy?" Ben asked.
+
+"A fairy is a magical being who can do good things. I belong to the fairy kingdom, where there are many other fairies like me," the bird said.
+
+"Wow, that's cool. Can you show us the fairy kingdom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sorry, I can't. The fairy kingdom is hidden from human eyes. But I can give you a gift. Close your eyes and make a wish," the bird said.
+
+Lily and Ben closed their eyes and thought of something they wanted. The bird waved its wings and sprinkled some dust on them. Then it flew away.
+
+"Bye, fairy. Thank you," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They opened their eyes and saw their wishes come true. Lily had a new doll and Ben had a new car. They were very happy and hugged each other.
+
+They played with their new toys until it was time to go home. They told their mom and dad about the fairy, but they did not believe them. They thought it was a weird story.
+
+But Lily and Ben knew it was true. They had met a fairy in the park. And they had a secret to share.
+Anna was a compassionate lady who liked to help people. She worked at a big house where many people came to stay when they had no home. She welcomed them with a smile and gave them food and clothes and toys.
+
+One day, a new family came to the big house. They had a little girl named Lily who was very shy and scared. She did not talk to anyone and hid behind her mom. Anna saw Lily and wanted to be her friend. She said, "Hello, Lily. I'm Anna. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily shook her head and clung to her mom. Anna did not give up. She said, "That's okay. Maybe later. I have something for you. It's a surprise. Do you like surprises?" Lily nodded a little. Anna smiled and said, "Come with me. I'll show you."
+
+Anna took Lily by the hand and led her to a room where there were many books and toys. She said, "This is the playroom. You can play with anything you want. And look, this is your surprise." She pointed to a shelf where there was a big teddy bear with a red bow. She said, "This is for you. I made it myself. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily's eyes widened and she gasped. She ran to the shelf and hugged the teddy bear. She said, "Thank you, Anna. Thank you. I love it. It's so soft and warm." She looked at Anna and smiled. She said, "You're very nice. Can we be friends?"
+
+Anna hugged Lily and said, "Of course we can be friends. I'm so happy you like the teddy bear. I hope you feel at home here. You're always welcome." Lily nodded and said, "I do. I feel at home. Thank you, Anna. You're the best." They played together for a long time and became good friends.
+Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+"Let's go on the slide!" Lila says. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK!" Tom says. "But we have to be quick. There are many kids who want to go on the slide too."
+
+They run to the slide. They wait in line. They see a boy in front of them. He is slow. He does not go on the slide.
+
+"Hey, boy!" Lila says. "Why are you not going on the slide? Are you scared?"
+
+The boy turns around. He is sad. He says, "No, I am not scared. But I have no one to catch me at the end. My mom is busy. She is not available."
+
+Lila and Tom feel sorry for the boy. They have an idea.
+
+"Hey, boy!" Tom says. "We can catch you at the end. We can be your friends. Do you want to go on the slide with us?"
+
+The boy smiles. He says, "Yes, I do! Thank you, Lila and Tom. You are very nice."
+
+They go on the slide together. They have fun. They laugh. They catch each other at the end. They make a new friend. They are happy.
+Mia liked to hug her nurse. Her nurse was kind and soft and smelled good. She helped Mia when she was sick or hurt. Mia was sick a lot. She had a bad thing in her tummy that made her feel ouchy.
+
+One day, the nurse told Mia that she had to go to a big place with a lot of machines and doctors. She said they would make the bad thing go away. Mia was scared. She did not like machines or doctors. They were loud and cold and hurt her. She hugged her nurse and asked her to come with her.
+
+The nurse said she could not come, but she gave Mia a present. It was a small bear with a red hat. She said the bear was magic and would make Mia brave and strong. She said Mia had to hug the bear whenever she felt scared or ouchy. She said she would see Mia soon and hugged her back.
+
+Mia went to the big place with her mom and dad. They put her in a bed with wires and tubes. They gave her a drink that tasted spicy and made her sleepy. She did not like the drink. She hugged her bear and closed her eyes.
+
+When Mia woke up, she felt very ouchy. She saw her mom and dad smiling at her. They said the doctors had made the bad thing go away. They said Mia was a hero. Mia did not feel like a hero. She felt like crying. She hugged her bear and asked for her nurse.
+
+Her mom and dad said her nurse was waiting for her in another room. They said she had a surprise for Mia. They helped Mia get out of the bed and walk to the other room. Mia saw her nurse standing there with a big smile. She also saw a big cake with candles and a sign that said "Happy Birthday Mia". Mia had forgotten that it was her birthday. She felt happy. She ran to her nurse and hugged her. She thanked her for the bear and the cake. She said she loved her. The nurse hugged her back and said she loved her too. She said Mia was the best birthday girl ever.
+Tim and Jen are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball, a bike and a doll. They share their toys and have fun.
+
+One day, a big boy comes to the park. He has a big dog. The dog is loud and scary. The big boy says, "Give me your toys. They are mine now." He takes the ball, the bike and the doll. He laughs and runs away with his dog.
+
+Tim and Jen are sad and angry. They cry and shout, "That is not fair! Give us back our toys!" But the big boy does not listen. He is mean and rude.
+
+A lady sees what happens. She is kind and nice. She says, "Don't cry, little ones. I will help you. Come with me." She takes Tim and Jen to her car. She has a phone. She calls the police. She tells them what the big boy did.
+
+The police come to the park. They find the big boy and his dog. They make him give back the toys. They scold him and say, "You should not take things that are not yours. You should be sorry and say sorry. You should be nice and share. That is how you make friends and spend your life."
+
+The big boy is confused. He does not understand. He says, "But I like toys. I want toys. I don't need friends. I have my dog." The police shake their heads and say, "You are wrong. Toys are not everything. Friends are more important. Friends make you happy and help you. You should learn and change. Or you will be lonely and sad."
+
+Tim and Jen get their toys back. They are happy and grateful. They hug the lady and say, "Thank you, thank you. You are very good. You are our friend." The lady smiles and says, "You are welcome, welcome. You are very sweet. You are my friends too." They go back to the park and play. They have a good day. They spend their life with joy and love.
+Lily loved to swim in the pool. She liked to splash and kick and blow bubbles. But she did not like to tidy her toys. She left them all over the floor and the grass.
+
+One day, Mommy said, "Lily, you need to tidy your toys before you swim. If you don't, you will be punished. You will not swim today."
+
+Lily did not listen. She ran to the pool and jumped in. She had fun for a while, but then she heard Mommy's voice.
+
+"Lily, come out of the pool right now. You did not tidy your toys. You are punished. You will not swim today."
+
+Lily felt sad and sorry. She got out of the pool and saw Mommy's angry face. She said, "I'm sorry, Mommy. I was bad. I will tidy my toys now."
+
+Mommy said, "Thank you, Lily. I'm glad you are sorry. But you still have to be punished. You will not swim today. You will go to your room and think about what you did."
+
+Lily nodded and went to her room. She did not like to be punished. She wished she had tidied her toys. She learned her lesson. Next time, she would listen to Mommy and be a good girl.
+Ben and Mia like to play with their ball in the park. They take turns to kick the ball and run after it. Sometimes they try to score a goal in the net.
+
+One day, they see a big boy with a bat and a ball. He throws the ball in the air and hits it with the bat. The ball flies far away. Ben and Mia are curious. They want to try too.
+
+They ask the big boy if they can play with him. The big boy says yes, but he tells them they have to follow his rules. He says he will pitch the ball to them and they have to hit it with the bat. He says they have to turn their body and swing the bat hard.
+
+Ben goes first. He holds the bat and waits for the ball. The big boy pitches the ball to him. But the ball is too fast and too high. Ben misses the ball. He tries again and again, but he can't hit the ball. He feels sad and confused. He doesn't understand why he can't hit the ball.
+
+Mia goes next. She holds the bat and waits for the ball. The big boy pitches the ball to her. But the ball is too low and too slow. Mia hits the ball, but it rolls on the ground. She tries again and again, but she can't make the ball fly. She feels angry and confused. She doesn't understand why she can't make the ball fly.
+
+Ben and Mia look at each other. They don't like this game. They don't like the big boy's rules. They want to play their own game. They say thank you to the big boy and take their ball. They run to the net and kick the ball. They score a goal and cheer. They are happy and not confused. They like their game. They like their rules.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their bikes. They had helmets, gloves and other gear to be safe and have fun. They liked to race each other and do tricks on the ramps.
+
+One day, they saw a big truck with a sign that said "Magic Show". They were curious and wanted to see what was inside. They parked their bikes near the truck and went closer. They saw a man with a hat and a cape who smiled at them.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you want to see some magic?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"OK, then. Watch this." The man took out a wand and waved it over his hat. He said some words that sounded funny and pulled out a rabbit. Tom and Lily clapped and laughed.
+
+"Wow, that's amazing!" Tom said.
+
+"Thank you. But that's not all. Do you want to see something even more amazing?" the man asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Lily said again.
+
+"OK, then. Watch this." The man took out a cloth and covered his hat and the rabbit. He said some more words that sounded funny and lifted the cloth. The hat and the rabbit were gone. They had vanished.
+
+"Wow, that's incredible!" Lily said.
+
+"Thank you. But that's not all. Do you want to see something even more incredible?" the man asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Lily said for the third time.
+
+"OK, then. Watch this." The man pointed his wand at their bikes and said some more words that sounded funny. Tom and Lily turned around and saw that their bikes had vanished too. They had no gear left.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Tom said.
+
+"Where are our bikes?" Lily said.
+
+"Sorry, kids. That's the end of the show. Thank you for watching. Goodbye!" the man said. He got into his truck and drove away.
+
+Tom and Lily were sad and angry. They had no bikes and no gear. They had no way to go home. They had been tricked by the bad man. They wished they had never seen the magic show. They wished they had played like normal.
+Tom and Mia love to play at the park. They like to slide, climb and run. But their favorite thing is the swing. They take turns to push each other and go high in the air.
+
+One day, they see a new swing at the park. It is big and red and has a long rope. Tom and Mia are curious and excited. They want to try the new swing.
+
+Tom goes first. He holds the rope and runs fast. He jumps and swings in the air. He feels like a bird. He laughs and shouts. Mia claps and cheers.
+
+Then it is Mia's turn. She holds the rope and runs fast. She jumps and swings in the air. She feels like a star. She smiles and sings. Tom claps and cheers.
+
+But Mia wants to do something more. She wants to dive. She swings higher and higher. She lets go of the rope and dives into the sand. She lands with a thud and a splash. She is covered in sand and dust. She is wild and happy. Tom is shocked and amazed.
+
+They both giggle and hug. They are brave and fun. They love the new swing. They love to dive.
+Mia liked to draw. She had many colors and papers to make her pictures. She drew flowers, animals, stars, and anything she liked. She was very proud of her drawings. She put them in a big file to keep them safe.
+
+One day, she wanted to show her drawings to her mom. She ran to her room and opened the file. But she saw something bad. All her drawings were gone! Someone had taken them out of the file and left it empty. Mia felt very sad and angry. She started to cry.
+
+"Mom, mom, someone stole my drawings!" she shouted.
+
+Mom heard Mia and came to her room. She saw the empty file and Mia's tears. She hugged Mia and said, "Don't worry, sweetie, we'll find your drawings. Who do you think took them?"
+
+Mia thought for a moment. She remembered that her brother Tom had been in her room earlier. He liked to tease her and play tricks on her. Maybe he took her drawings to make her mad.
+
+"I think Tom did it. He was here before. He always does bad things to me," she said.
+
+Mom nodded. She had an idea. She took Mia's hand and said, "Let's go to Tom's room and see if he has your drawings. Maybe we can get them back."
+
+They walked to Tom's room and knocked on the door. Tom opened it and smiled. He saw Mia and Mom and said, "Hi, what do you want?"
+
+Mom said, "We want to see your room, Tom. Can we come in?"
+
+Tom looked nervous. He said, "Uh, no, you can't. It's very messy. You won't like it."
+
+Mom said, "Oh, come on, Tom. We won't mind the mess. We just want to see what you have in your room. Maybe something interesting. Maybe something original."
+
+Tom sighed. He knew Mom was smart. He knew she guessed his secret. He moved aside and let them in. On his wall, they saw all of Mia's drawings. He had taken them out of the file and taped them to his wall. He liked Mia's drawings. He thought they were beautiful and original. He wanted to have them for himself.
+
+Mia gasped. She saw her drawings and said, "Tom, those are mine! You stole them from me! Give them back!"
+
+Tom looked ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, Mia. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just liked your drawings so much. They are so pretty and colorful. You are very good at drawing."
+
+Mom said, "Tom, it's nice that you appreciate Mia's drawings, but you can't take them without asking. That's not fair. You have to respect her work and her file. How would you feel if someone took your things without permission?"
+
+Tom said, "I would feel bad. I would feel angry and sad. I'm sorry, Mia. I won't do it again. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Mia looked at Tom. She saw that he was sorry. She saw that he liked her drawings. She felt a little happy. She said, "It's okay, Tom. I forgive you. But you have to give me back my drawings. They are mine. You can't have them."
+
+Tom said, "Okay, Mia. I'll give you back your drawings. But can I ask you something?"
+
+Mia said, "What is it?"
+
+Tom said, "Can you teach me how to draw like you? Can you show me how to use the colors and the papers and make original pictures?"
+
+Mia smiled. She said, "Sure, Tom. I can teach you how to draw. But you have to promise me something."
+
+Tom said, "What is it?"
+
+Mia said, "You have to promise me that you won't take my drawings again. And that you won't tease me or play tricks on me. And that you will be nice to me and share with me."
+
+Tom said, "I promise, Mia. I promise."
+
+Mia said, "Okay, then. Let's go to my room and draw together. We can make our own file and put our drawings in it. We can be friends."
+
+Tom said, "Okay, Mia. Let's go. We can be friends."
+
+Mom smiled. She saw Mia and Tom hug and walk to Mia's room. She was happy that they made up and learned a lesson. She was proud of her children. She closed Tom's door and followed them. She wanted to see their drawings and join their fun.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hole in the ground. It looked like a pit.
+
+"Let's go see what's in there," Ben said.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the pit and looked inside. It was dark and smelly. They saw some trash and bugs and worms.
+
+"Yuck, this is gross," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe there's something cool at the bottom," Ben said.
+
+He leaned over the edge of the pit. He wanted to see more. But he lost his balance and fell. He screamed as he fell.
+
+"Ben, Ben, are you OK?" Lily shouted.
+
+She was scared and worried. She ran to get help. She saw a man with a dog. She told him what happened.
+
+"Help, help, my friend fell in the pit," she said.
+
+The man and the dog ran to the pit. The dog barked and sniffed. The man called Ben's name.
+
+"Ben, can you hear me?" he said.
+
+He heard a weak voice.
+
+"I'm here, I'm here, I'm hurt," Ben said.
+
+The man took a rope from his bag. He tied it to a tree. He threw the other end to Ben.
+
+"Grab the rope, Ben, I'll pull you up," he said.
+
+Ben grabbed the rope. He was dirty and smelly and bleeding. The man pulled him up. He hugged him and checked him.
+
+"You're brave, Ben, but you're also lucky," he said.
+
+He took him and Lily to his car. He drove them to the hospital. He called their parents.
+
+Ben and Lily learned a lesson. They never played near the pit again. They thanked the man and the dog for saving them. They stayed friends and played in the park. But they always stayed away from the pit.
+Lily liked to eat carrots. She ate them every day for lunch. She said they made her eyes big and bright. She liked to share them with her bunny, Fluffy. Fluffy was her best friend.
+
+One day, Lily and Fluffy went to the park. They saw a big tent with a sign that said "Circus". Lily wanted to see the circus. She asked her mom if they could go. Her mom said yes, but they had to finish their carrots first. Lily and Fluffy ate their carrots very fast. They were excited to see the circus.
+
+They went inside the tent and found a seat. They saw many people and animals. They saw clowns, acrobats, lions, elephants, and horses. They saw a man with a big hat and a whip. He was the ringmaster. He said, "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to the greatest show on earth!"
+
+The circus began. Lily and Fluffy watched with wonder. They saw the clowns make funny jokes. They saw the acrobats fly in the air. They saw the lions roar and the elephants dance. They saw the horses run and jump. They clapped their hands and paws. They liked the circus very much.
+
+But the best part was at the end. The ringmaster said, "And now, for our final act, we have a very special guest. He is the world's most amazing bunny. He can do things that no other bunny can do. Please welcome, Fluffy!"
+
+Lily and Fluffy were shocked. They did not know that Fluffy was a circus star. They saw Fluffy hop out of a hat. He wore a sparkly vest and a bow tie. He looked very handsome. He did tricks that Lily had never seen before. He juggled carrots. He balanced on a ball. He rode a bike. He played a trumpet. He was amazing. The crowd cheered and clapped. They loved Fluffy.
+
+Lily was very proud of Fluffy. She did not know he had a secret talent. She wondered how he learned to do those things. She wanted to ask him. But she was happy for him. She smiled and clapped. She said, "That's my bunny!"
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see a small potato in the dirt. They want to eat it.
+
+"Can we part the potato?" Lila asks.
+
+"Yes, we can part it. I have a knife." Ben says.
+
+They go to the kitchen. Ben gets a knife. He parts the potato in two. He gives one part to Lila and keeps one part for himself.
+
+They wash the potato parts. They put them in a pot. They add water and salt. They put the pot on the stove.
+
+"Can we cook the potato?" Lila asks.
+
+"Yes, we can cook it. We have to wait." Ben says.
+
+They wait for a long time. They hear a whistle. The potato is ready. They turn off the stove. They get a spoon. They take the potato parts out of the pot. They blow on them. They are hot.
+
+They eat the potato parts. They are yummy. They are happy.
+
+They say thank you to each other. They hug. They are friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant seeds. They wanted to grow flowers and vegetables. They had a small fence around their garden to keep out the rabbits.
+
+One day, they saw a big hole in the fence. A rabbit had made the hole and eaten some of their plants. Lily and Ben were sad and angry. They decided to make a trap for the rabbit. They found a big box and a carrot. They put the carrot inside the box and tied a string to the box. They hid behind a bush and waited for the rabbit.
+
+Soon, the rabbit came back to the garden. He smelled the carrot and went inside the box. Lily and Ben pulled the string and the box fell down. They had caught the rabbit. They ran to the box and opened it. They wanted to scold the rabbit and tell him to go away.
+
+But when they saw the rabbit, they felt sorry for him. He looked scared and hungry. He had a cut on his ear. He said, "Please don't hurt me. I'm sorry I ate your plants. I have no home and no food. I'm alone and cold."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They thought about how they would feel if they had no home and no food. They decided to be kind to the rabbit. They said, "We won't hurt you. We're sorry we trapped you. You can stay with us. We have a warm house and plenty of food. You can be our friend."
+
+The rabbit was happy and grateful. He said, "Thank you. You are very nice and useful. You can help me grow a new ear."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and hugged the rabbit. They took him to their house and gave him a blanket and a bowl of water. They named him Fluffy. They became good friends and played together in the garden. They learned to share their plants and protect their fence. They all grew happy and healthy.
+Lily liked to help her mom with the mail. Every day, she would seat on the porch and wait for the mailman to come. She would wave and say hello, and he would give her a smile and a letter or a package.
+
+One day, the mailman had a big box for Lily's mom. He said it was delicate and had to be careful. Lily wanted to see what was inside, but her mom said no. She said it was a surprise for Lily's birthday, and she had to wait.
+
+Lily was curious and excited. She wondered what could be in the box. She thought maybe it was a doll, or a book, or a dress. She wanted to touch it, but she remembered her mom's words. She decided to be a good girl and leave the box alone.
+
+The next day, it was Lily's birthday. Her mom brought the box to the living room and said it was time to open it. Lily was happy and nervous. She tore the paper and opened the box. Inside, she saw a beautiful tea set, with cups and saucers and a teapot. They were all pink and white and had flowers on them. They looked delicate and pretty.
+
+Lily gasped and clapped her hands. She thanked her mom and hugged her. She said it was the best gift ever. Her mom smiled and said she was glad. She said they could have a tea party together, and invite Lily's friends and dolls. Lily nodded and said yes. She picked up the teapot and held it gently. She was careful not to break it. She loved her new tea set and her mom. She was very happy.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bush with red berries. They are hungry and want to eat some.
+
+"Look, Ben, berries!" Anna says. "Can we have some?"
+
+"I don't know, Anna. Maybe they are not good for us. Maybe they belong to someone." Ben says.
+
+They go closer to the bush and see a sign. The sign has big letters and a picture of a berry. The sign says: "Expensive berries. Do not touch."
+
+"What does 'expensive' mean, Ben?" Anna asks.
+
+"I think it means they cost a lot of money. Like the toys in the shop. We can't have them." Ben says.
+
+"But they look so yummy. And we are so hungry. Maybe we can have just one. No one will see us." Anna says.
+
+She reaches for a berry, but Ben stops her.
+
+"No, Anna, that's not nice. We have to help the person who grows the berries. They work hard to make them. If we take them, they will have less. And they will be sad and angry." Ben says.
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She does not want to make anyone sad or angry. She wants to be nice and help.
+
+"You are right, Ben. We should not take the berries. We should help. Maybe we can water the bush, or pick up the trash around it. That will make the person happy." Anna says.
+
+They look for a bucket and a hose. They find them near a shed. They water the bush carefully, and then they pick up the trash and put it in a bin. They feel good about helping.
+
+"Good job, Anna and Ben!" a voice says.
+
+They turn around and see a woman smiling at them. She is holding a basket full of berries.
+
+"Who are you?" Anna asks.
+
+"I am the person who grows the berries. I saw you from the window. Thank you for helping me. You are very kind and honest. These berries are expensive, because they are rare and tasty. But I want to share some with you, as a reward. Here, take some. They are good for you." the woman says.
+
+She gives them some berries. They are sweet and juicy. Anna and Ben thank the woman and eat the berries. They are happy and full.
+
+They have learned a new word: expensive. And they have learned a new lesson: helping is better than taking.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the attic. They found many old things there, like books, toys and clothes. One day, they saw a big chimney in the corner. It was dark and dusty.
+
+"Let's see what's inside the chimney," Ben said. He was curious and brave.
+
+"No, don't go there," Anna said. She was scared and careful. "It might be dirty or dangerous."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He climbed on a chair and looked into the chimney. He saw a small hole at the top. He wanted to pass through it and see the sky.
+
+"Ben, come down!" Anna shouted. "You might fall or get stuck."
+
+But Ben did not hear. He pushed his head and shoulders into the hole. He felt something soft and warm. It was a bird's nest. He smiled and reached for the eggs.
+
+"Tweet, tweet!" A loud noise came from the chimney. It was the mother bird. She was angry and protective. She flew at Ben and pecked his hair.
+
+"Ow, ow!" Ben cried. He tried to pull back, but he was too big. He was trapped in the chimney.
+
+"Help, help!" Anna screamed. She ran to get their mom and dad. They came quickly and saw Ben in the chimney. They were worried and surprised.
+
+"Don't worry, son, we'll get you out," Dad said. He got a ladder and a rope. He climbed to the roof and tied the rope around Ben's feet. He pulled gently and slowly. Ben slid out of the chimney. He was dirty and sore.
+
+"Are you okay, Ben?" Mom asked. She hugged him and cleaned his face.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom," Ben said. He was sorry and ashamed. "I was curious and silly."
+
+"It's okay, Ben," Mom said. She was kind and forgiving. "But next time, listen to your sister and be careful."
+
+Anna smiled and hugged Ben. She was happy and relieved. She was not mad at him.
+
+"I'm glad you're safe, Ben," Anna said. She was loving and sweet. "But don't ever go into the chimney again."
+
+"I won't, Anna," Ben said. He was grateful and smart. "I learned my lesson."
+
+They all went downstairs and had some cookies and milk. They were a happy family.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big, furry dog. The dog is friendly and wags its tail. Lila and Ben want to pet the dog.
+
+"Hello, doggy!" Lila says. "Can we touch you?"
+
+The dog barks and licks Lila's face. Lila giggles and hugs the dog. Ben reaches out his hand to the dog. The dog sniffs Ben's hand and then bites his foot.
+
+"Ow!" Ben cries. "The dog bit me!"
+
+Lila lets go of the dog and runs to Ben. She sees blood on his foot. She is scared and sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben!" Lila says. "Why did the dog bite you?"
+
+The dog owner comes and sees what happened. He is angry and sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids!" he says. "My dog is sick. He has a bad thing in his head. It makes him spread his teeth and bite. He doesn't mean to hurt you. He needs to go to the vet."
+
+He takes the dog away on a leash. Lila and Ben go to their mom. She cleans Ben's foot and puts a band-aid on it. She hugs them and tells them they are brave.
+
+"It's okay, mom," Ben says. "The dog was furry and nice. He just had a bad thing in his head."
+
+Lila nods and smiles. She says, "Maybe the vet can make the bad thing go away. Then the dog can be happy and friendly again."
+Sara and Tom are playing with blocks. Sara likes to build tall towers. Tom likes to knock them down. Sara is angry at Tom. She says, "Stop it, Tom! You are mean!" Tom laughs and says, "No, I am fun! You are boring!"
+
+Sara wants to make Tom stop. She sees a big ball. She has an idea. She picks up the ball and throws it at Tom. The ball is hard and fast. It hits Tom in the eye. Tom screams and falls down. He holds his eye and cries. Sara is scared. She runs to Tom and says, "I am sorry, Tom! I did not mean to hurt you!"
+
+But Tom does not hear her. He is in pain. He can not see with his eye. His eye is red and swollen. He feels warm and sick. He needs help. He calls for his mom. His mom comes and sees what happened. She is angry and sad. She says, "Sara, what did you do? You are in trouble! You pushed the ball at Tom and hurt his eye! You are not a good friend!"
+
+She takes Tom to the doctor. The doctor says, "Tom has a bad eye. He needs medicine and a patch. He can not play for a long time. He may not see well with his eye again." Tom is sad and scared. He does not want to lose his eye. He does not want to play with Sara again.
+
+Sara is sorry and sad. She did not want to hurt Tom. She wanted to play with him. She pushed the ball because she was angry. She did not think about what would happen. She wishes she could take it back. She wishes she could say sorry to Tom. She wishes she could be his friend again. But she can not. She made a big mistake. She has a bad ending.
+Tom and Anna liked to play with their toys. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a big opera house. It had many rooms, stairs, and people. They liked to make the people sing and dance and act.
+
+One day, Tom and Anna were playing with their opera house when they heard a loud crash. They looked and saw that their dog, Spot, had knocked over the opera house. It was broken. Some of the rooms, stairs, and people were smashed. Tom and Anna were very sad and angry.
+
+"Bad dog! Bad dog!" they shouted at Spot. "You broke our opera house! Go away!"
+
+Spot whimpered and ran away. He did not mean to break the opera house. He just wanted to play with Tom and Anna.
+
+Tom and Anna tried to fix their opera house, but they could not. They did not know how to repair it. They felt helpless. They wanted to play with their opera house again, but they could not.
+
+They started to cry. They wished they had someone to help them.
+
+Then they heard a knock on the door. It was their dad. He had come home from work. He saw Tom and Anna crying and the broken opera house.
+
+"What happened here?" he asked.

+"Spot broke our opera house!" Tom and Anna said. "We can't repair it! We can't play with it!"
+
+Dad hugged Tom and Anna and said, "Don't worry, I can help you. I know how to repair things. Let's see what we can do."
+
+Dad took some glue, some tape, and some scissors. He helped Tom and Anna put the pieces of the opera house back together. He glued the rooms, taped the stairs, and cut out new people. He made the opera house look almost as good as new.
+
+Tom and Anna were very happy. They thanked their dad and gave him a big kiss. They said, "You are the best dad ever! You can repair anything!"
+
+Dad smiled and said, "You are welcome. I'm glad I could help you. Now you can play with your opera house again. But be careful with Spot. He is a good dog, but he doesn't know how to play with opera houses. Maybe you can teach him."
+
+Tom and Anna agreed. They decided to forgive Spot and let him join their play. They made him a part of their opera. They made him sing and dance and act. Spot wagged his tail and licked their faces. He was happy to play with Tom and Anna.
+
+They all had fun with their opera house. They sang and danced and acted. They made up stories and songs. They forgot about the crash and the break. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the snow. They made snowmen, snowballs and snow angels. One day, they saw a big hill covered with white powder. They wanted to slide down the hill on their sleds.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Ben said. "It looks like fun!"
+
+"OK, Ben!" Lily said. "But be careful. The hill is very steep."
+
+They dragged their sleds to the top of the hill and got ready to slide. Ben went first. He pushed his sled and jumped on it. He went very fast down the hill. He felt the wind in his face and the snow in his hair. He was happy.
+
+Lily went second. She pushed her sled and jumped on it. She went very fast down the hill too. But she saw a big rock in her way. She tried to steer her sled away from the rock, but it was too late. She hit the rock and flew off her sled. She landed on the ground with a thud. She felt pain in her arm and leg. She was sad.
+
+Ben heard Lily cry. He stopped his sled and ran to her. He saw her arm and leg were red and swollen. He was scared.
+
+"Lily, are you OK?" Ben asked. "I'm sorry. I should have warned you about the rock."
+
+"No, Ben, it's not your fault." Lily said. "I should have been more careful. I was not serious."
+
+They hugged each other and said sorry. They decided to go back home and tell their mom what happened. Their mom was worried. She took them to the doctor. The doctor said Lily had a sprain and a bruise. He gave her a bandage and some medicine. He said she would be fine in a few days.
+
+Ben and Lily learned a lesson. They learned that sliding down a hill can be fun, but also dangerous. They learned to be more serious and watch out for each other. They learned to be thankful for their mom and the doctor. They learned to be happy with what they have.
+Lia and Tom were playing in the woods. They liked to explore and find new things. They saw a hut made of sticks and leaves. It looked old and dirty.
+
+"Who lives there?" Lia asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a bear or a fox," Tom said.
+
+"Let's examine it. Maybe we can find something cool," Lia said.
+
+They walked closer to the hut. They peeked inside. It was dark and smelly. They saw some bones and fur on the floor.
+
+"Yuck! This is gross!" Tom said.
+
+"Shh! I hear something!" Lia said.
+
+They heard a loud growl from behind the hut. They turned around and saw a mighty wolf. It had big teeth and yellow eyes. It looked angry and hungry.
+
+"Run!" Lia and Tom shouted.
+
+They ran away from the hut as fast as they could. The wolf chased them for a while, but they reached their bikes and pedaled away. They were scared and out of breath.
+
+"That was close! We should never go near that hut again!" Tom said.
+
+"Agreed! That was a bad idea!" Lia said.
+
+They learned their lesson. They decided to play somewhere safer and nicer. They were glad they escaped the mighty wolf.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play with flags. They have flags from many nations. Nations are big places with many people. Each nation has a different flag.
+
+One day, Sara and Tom want to make a parade. They carry their flags and march around the yard. They sing songs and wave their flags. They pretend they are visiting different nations. They say hello and thank you in different ways.
+
+After the parade, Sara and Tom are hungry. They go to the kitchen and ask for a snack. Mom gives them some yummy food. She gives them cheese from France, bread from Germany, and fruit from Brazil. Sara and Tom like to try new food. They say the food is yummy and ask for more.
+
+Mom smiles and says they are good travelers. She tells them about the nations where the food comes from. She shows them on a map. Sara and Tom learn new things. They say they want to see more nations someday.
+
+They hug Mom and thank her for the yummy food and the fun parade. They say they love her and their flags. They go back to the yard and play some more. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They saw a big, red truck on the street. The truck had a loud horn and a long hose. It was a fire truck.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lily said. "The fire truck is powerful. It can put out fires and save people."
+
+"I want to see where it goes," Ben said. "Maybe there is a fire nearby. Let's follow it!"
+
+They ran to the gate and opened it. They followed the fire truck down the street. They did not see their mom, who was doing laundry in the house.
+
+The fire truck turned a corner and stopped in front of a building. Lily and Ben saw smoke and flames coming out of a window. They heard sirens and people shouting. They felt scared.
+
+"Ben, this is bad," Lily said. "We should go back home. Mom will be worried."
+
+"But I want to see the fire truck work," Ben said. "It is so cool. Maybe they will let us ride it."
+
+"No, Ben, we can't," Lily said. "It is dangerous. Come on, let's go."
+
+She grabbed his hand and pulled him away from the fire. They ran back the way they came. They hoped they could find their way home.
+
+They were lost. They did not recognize the street. They saw many cars and people, but no fire truck. They felt tired and hungry. They started to cry.
+
+"Mom, mom, where are you?" Lily shouted.
+
+"Help, help, we are lost!" Ben shouted.
+
+A nice lady heard them. She came over and asked them what was wrong. She saw their dirty clothes and sad faces.
+
+"Are you OK, sweeties?" she asked. "Where do you live? Where is your mom?"
+
+"We followed the fire truck," Lily said. "We wanted to see it, but it was scary. We ran away, but we don't know how to go home. Our mom is doing laundry. She doesn't know we are gone."
+
+"Oh, dear, that was not a good idea," the lady said. "But don't worry, I will help you. I have a phone. I can call your mom and tell her where you are. What is your mom's name and number?"
+
+Lily and Ben told her. The lady called their mom and explained what happened. Their mom was very relieved and angry. She said she would come and get them right away.
+
+The lady stayed with Lily and Ben until their mom arrived. She gave them some water and cookies. She told them stories and made them laugh. She was very kind.
+
+Their mom hugged them and thanked the lady. She was very grateful and sorry. She scolded Lily and Ben for running away and following the fire truck. She told them it was very dangerous and naughty. She said they should never do it again.
+
+Lily and Ben said they were sorry. They said they learned their lesson. They said they loved their mom and the lady. They said they would never follow the fire truck again.
+
+They went home with their mom. They helped her with the laundry. They took a bath and went to bed. They dreamed of the fire truck, but they were not scared. They were happy and safe.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a big black box under a tree. They want to know what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Lily says.
+
+"But it has a lock. We need a key," Ben says.
+
+They look around for a key. They find a shiny one on a hook by the door. They run to the box with the key.
+
+Lily tries to unlock the box. She turns the key hard. But nothing happens. The lock is too big for the key.
+
+"Maybe we need a bigger key," Ben says.
+
+He sees a big key on the ground. It is black and rusty. He picks it up and gives it to Lily.
+
+Lily tries to unlock the box with the big key. She turns the key hard. The lock clicks and opens.
+
+"Yay! We did it!" Lily says.
+
+They lift the lid of the box. They see a lot of old toys and books. They are happy. They start to play with them.
+
+But then they hear a loud voice.
+
+"Hey! What are you doing with my box?" It is Mr. Brown, the owner of the house. He is angry.
+
+He walks to the box and sees Lily and Ben. He sees the keys in their hands.
+
+"Those are my keys! You have no right to unlock my box!" He says.
+
+He grabs the keys from them. He slams the lid of the box. He locks it again.
+
+He tells Lily and Ben to go away. He says they are naughty and rude.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared and sad. They run away from the box. They run to their house.
+
+They hug each other. They have tears in their eyes.
+
+They say they are sorry. They say they will never unlock things that are not theirs.
+
+They say they love each other. They say they are still friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to zoom them around the grass and make loud noises. Sometimes they pretended they were racing or chasing each other.
+
+One day, they saw a big truck parked near the playground. It had a long trunk at the back that could lift things up and down. Tom and Lily were very excited. They wanted to see what was inside the trunk.
+
+They ran towards the truck, but a man stopped them. He was wearing a yellow hat and a blue shirt. He said, "Hello, kids. This is my truck. I use it to move things from one place to another. Do you want to see what's in the trunk?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded eagerly. The man smiled and pressed a button. The trunk opened and a loud noise came out. Tom and Lily gasped. Inside the trunk, there was a mighty lion. It had a big mane, sharp teeth and yellow eyes. It roared and looked at them.
+
+"Don't be afraid," the man said. "This is Leo. He is my friend. I work at the zoo and I'm taking him to his new home. He is very friendly and gentle. Do you want to pet him?"
+
+Tom and Lily were scared, but also curious. They slowly approached the trunk and reached out their hands. Leo licked their fingers and purred. Tom and Lily giggled. They felt brave and happy. They thanked the man and said goodbye to Leo. They went back to their toy cars, but they kept looking at the truck. They had seen something amazing. They would never forget the day they met the mighty lion in the trunk.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big chair in the park. It is red and soft and has wheels. Tom and Mia think it is a perfect chair.
+
+"Let's play with the chair!" Tom says. He runs to the chair and grabs it. He pushes it and makes it go fast.
+
+"Wait for me!" Mia says. She runs after Tom and grabs the chair too. She pulls it and makes it go slow.
+
+"Stop! Stop!" Tom says. He does not like it when Mia pulls the chair. He wants to go fast.
+
+"No! No!" Mia says. She does not like it when Tom pushes the chair. She wants to go slow.
+
+They tug and tug on the chair. They make it go left and right. They make it go up and down. They make it go round and round.
+
+But then, the chair breaks. It makes a loud noise. The wheels fall off. The cushion rips. The chair is not perfect anymore.
+
+Tom and Mia are sad. They look at the broken chair. They look at each other. They say sorry.
+
+"Sorry, Tom. I should not have pulled the chair."
+
+"Sorry, Mia. I should not have pushed the chair."
+
+They hug and make up. They decide to play something else. They leave the broken chair in the park. They hope someone will fix it. They hope someone will find it perfect again.
+Lily and Tom were hungry. They saw a big plate of cookies on the table. The cookies smelled good and looked yummy. Lily and Tom wanted some cookies.
+
+"Can we have some cookies, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, not now. Those cookies are for later. They are important. We have to share them with our guests," Mom said.
+
+"But we are hungry now. And we like cookies," Tom said.
+
+Mom was busy in the kitchen. She did not see Lily and Tom. Lily and Tom looked at each other. They had an idea.
+
+"Let's get some cookies when Mom is not looking. She will not know," Lily whispered.
+
+"OK, let's do it. But be careful," Tom whispered back.
+
+Lily and Tom tiptoed to the table. They stretched their arms to reach the plate of cookies. They grabbed some cookies and put them in their mouths. They smiled. The cookies were sweet and crunchy.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The plate of cookies was too heavy for Lily and Tom. It slipped from their hands and fell to the floor. The plate broke into pieces. The cookies scattered everywhere. Mom heard the noise and came to see.
+
+"What have you done?" Mom shouted. "You broke the plate and wasted the cookies. Those cookies were important. They were for our guests. How could you be so naughty and greedy?"
+
+Lily and Tom felt scared and sorry. They dropped the cookies from their mouths. They started to cry.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We were hungry. We wanted some cookies," Lily said.
+
+"Sorry is not enough. You have to learn to listen and to wait. You have to learn to respect and to share. You have to go to your room and think about what you did. No more cookies for you today," Mom said.
+
+Mom was very angry. She took Lily and Tom by their hands and led them to their room. She closed the door behind them. Lily and Tom were sad and ashamed. They wished they had not taken the cookies. They wished they had not broken the plate. They wished they had not made Mom mad. They wished they had a good ending. But they did not.
+Tim and Sue like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make roads and bridges with blocks and books. They pretend to be drivers and go to different places.
+
+One day, they find a new car in the toy box. It is big and red and shiny. It has a button on the side. Tim pushes the button and the car makes a loud noise. "Vroom, vroom!" the car says. Tim and Sue laugh. They want to try the car.
+
+Tim puts the car on the floor and sits on it. He holds the steering wheel and pushes the button. The car moves forward. "Wow, this is fun!" Tim says. Sue runs after him. She wants a turn.
+
+But the car does not stop. It goes faster and faster. It bumps into the wall, the table, the chair. It knocks over the blocks and the books. Tim tries to steer the car, but it does not listen. He tries to push the button, but it does not work. He is scared. "Help, help!" he cries.
+
+Sue hears him and runs to him. She grabs the car and pulls it back. She uses all her strength. She is brave. She manages to stop the car. She helps Tim get off. They hug each other. They are safe.
+
+"Are you okay, Tim?" Sue asks.
+
+"Yes, I'm okay, Sue. Thank you for saving me. That car is crazy!" Tim says.
+
+They look at the car. It is still making noise. "Vroom, vroom!" it says. They do not like the car anymore. They put it back in the toy box. They do not want to play with it again.
+
+They pick up their other cars and their blocks and their books. They make new roads and bridges. They pretend to be drivers and go to different places. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a yellow truck. The truck has a big sign. The sign says "Cookies for sale".
+
+"Wow, cookies!" Lily says. "I want a cookie. Do you want a cookie, Ben?"
+
+"Yes, I do!" Ben says. "But we have no money. How can we get a cookie?"
+
+Lily thinks hard. She has an idea. She sees a big rock. She picks up the rock. She says to Ben, "Look, Ben. This is a gold rock. We can trade it for a cookie."
+
+Ben thinks hard. He is not sure. He says to Lily, "Are you sure? How do you know it is a gold rock?"

+
+"Hello, kids," the man says. "Do you want a cookie?"
+
+"Yes, please," Lily says. "We have a gold rock. We can trade it for a cookie."
+
+The man looks at the rock. He smiles. He says, "A gold rock? That is very nice. But I'm sorry, kids. I can't take your rock. It is not gold. It is just a rock."
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They really want a cookie. They say, "But it is a gold rock. It is shiny and heavy. Please, can we have a cookie?"
+
+The man feels sorry for them. He says, "I'll tell you what. I'll give you each a cookie for free. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will not lie again. Lying is bad. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They say, "We understand. We are sorry. We will not lie again. Thank you for the cookie."

+One day, Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big pot of soup on the stove. They wanted to taste it, but it was too hot.
+
+"Let's wait until it cools down," said Lily.
+
+"OK," said Tom.
+
+They went to the living room and played with their toys. But they did not forget about the soup. They were very hungry.
+
+After a while, they heard a loud noise from the kitchen. It sounded like a roar.
+
+"What was that?" asked Tom.
+
+"I don't know," said Lily. "Maybe it was the soup."
+
+They ran to the kitchen and saw the soup bubbling and spilling over the pot. It looked like a monster.
+
+"Help!" they screamed. "The soup is alive!"
+
+They were very frightened. They hid behind the table and hoped the soup would not see them.
+
+But then they heard a voice.
+
+"Hello, children," said the voice. "Don't be scared. It's me, Mom."
+
+They looked up and saw their mom standing by the stove. She was holding a spoon and smiling.
+
+"Mom!" they cried. "You scared us!"
+
+"I'm sorry, sweeties," said Mom. "I was just blending the soup. It makes a lot of noise, but it's not dangerous. It's very yummy. Do you want to try some?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They came out from behind the table and went to their mom. She gave them each a bowl of soup and a hug.
+
+They tasted the soup and liked it. It was warm and creamy and had carrots and chicken in it.
+
+They forgot about their fear and enjoyed their lunch.
+
+"Mom, you make the best soup," said Lily.
+
+"Thank you, honey," said Mom.
+
+"Can we have more?" asked Tom.
+
+"Of course, dear," said Mom.
+
+They ate more soup and felt happy. They learned that sometimes things that sound scary are not scary at all. They just need to be curious and brave.
+Lily and Ben were excited to visit their grandma. She lived in a big house with a nice garden. She always had yummy cookies and milk for them. Grandma also had a cane, because her leg hurt sometimes.
+
+When they got to grandma's house, they hugged her and said hello. Then they ran to the kitchen to get some cookies and milk. Grandma poured the milk into two cups and gave them to the kids. She told them to be careful and not spill the milk.
+
+Lily and Ben took their cups and cookies and went to the living room. They saw a big sofa and a small table. They decided to sit on the sofa and put their cups on the table. But the table was wobbly and shaky. Lily and Ben did not notice.
+
+They started to eat their cookies and talk. They told grandma about their school, their friends, and their toys. Grandma listened and smiled. She was happy to see them.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Ben reached for his cup, but he bumped the table. The table tilted and his cup fell. The milk poured out and splashed on the sofa and the floor. Ben was scared and sad. He cried and said sorry.
+
+Grandma heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the mess and the crying Ben. She was not angry. She was calm and kind. She took her cane and walked to Ben. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Ben. It was an accident. Don't cry. We can clean it up."
+
+Lily saw how grandma was nice to Ben. She felt sorry for him too. She put down her cup and helped grandma. She got a towel and wiped the sofa and the floor. She said, "I'm sorry too, grandma. We should have been more careful."
+
+Grandma smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good helper. And you are both good kids. I love you. Accidents happen sometimes. But we can always fix them. And we can always forgive each other."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged grandma and said, "We love you too, grandma. You are the best. Thank you for the cookies and milk. And thank you for being nice to us."
+
+Grandma kissed them and said, "You are welcome, my dears. Now, let's have some more cookies and milk. But this time, let's sit on the floor. It's safer and more fun."
+
+Lily and Ben agreed and laughed. They sat on the floor with grandma and enjoyed their snack. They learned to be more careful and more forgiving. They had a great time with grandma.
+Tim and Amy were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to make noises and pretend they were racing. But then they heard a loud scream from the kitchen. It was their mom. She had cut her finger while chopping a carrot.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Mom cried. "I need a band-aid!"
+
+Tim and Amy ran to the kitchen. They saw blood on the counter and on Mom's hand. They felt scared and sad.
+
+"Mom, are you okay?" Tim asked.
+
+"It hurts a lot, honey. I need to go to the hospital. They will do an operation on my finger and make it better," Mom said.
+
+"What is an operation?" Amy asked.
+
+"It's when the doctors fix something that is broken or hurt. They use special tools and medicine. Don't worry, it will be okay," Mom said.
+
+"Can we go with you?" Tim asked.
+
+"No, sweetie. You have to stay here with Grandma. She will come soon and take care of you. You have to be brave and protect each other," Mom said.
+
+Tim and Amy nodded. They hugged Mom and told her they loved her. Mom kissed them and told them she loved them too. Then she grabbed her purse and went to the car. Dad was waiting for her. He drove her to the hospital.
+
+Tim and Amy watched them leave. They felt uncomfortable and lonely. They wished Mom would come back soon. They wanted to play with her and make her happy.
+
+They heard a knock on the door. It was Grandma. She smiled and hugged them.
+
+"Hello, my darlings. How are you?" Grandma asked.
+
+"We're sad, Grandma. Mom hurt her finger and went to the hospital. She said they will do an operation on her," Amy said.
+
+"Oh, poor Mom. I'm sure she will be fine. The doctors are very good and they will help her. She will be back soon. Don't be sad, Grandma is here to protect you and make you feel better," Grandma said.
+
+She took them to the couch and read them a story. She made them some cookies and milk. She played with them and made them laugh. She told them that Mom was strong and brave and that they were too.
+
+Tim and Amy felt a little better. They still missed Mom, but they knew she loved them and that Grandma loved them too. They hoped Mom would come back soon and that her finger would be better. They thanked Grandma for being so nice and for protecting them. They gave her a big hug and a kiss. They were a good team.
+Anna wanted to play with her new ball in the yard. It was a big and shiny ball that her grandma gave her for her birthday. It was very expensive, but Anna loved it very much.
+
+She asked her mom if she could go outside. Her mom said yes, but she had to be careful with the ball. She said the ball could break if it hit something hard or sharp. She also said Anna had to share the ball with her brother Tom, who was already in the yard.
+
+Anna ran outside with her ball. She saw Tom playing with his truck. She said hello to him and showed him her ball. Tom looked at the ball and smiled. He said it was a nice ball and asked if he could play with it too. Anna nodded and threw the ball to him.
+
+They took turns throwing and catching the ball. They had a lot of fun. They laughed and cheered when they made good throws and catches. They also said sorry when they missed or dropped the ball.
+
+They played until it was time for lunch. They brought the ball inside and put it on the table. They thanked their mom for letting them play outside. They also thanked their grandma for the ball. They said they loved the ball and they were happy they could play with it together. They said they succeeded in having a good time. Their mom and grandma smiled and hugged them. They said they were proud of them and they loved them too.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite ones were the blocks. They could build towers, houses, bridges and anything they wanted with the blocks. They also liked to scatter the blocks all over the floor when they were done playing.
+
+One day, their mom told them to clean up their toys before lunch. She said, "Anna and Ben, it is time to put away your blocks. Lunch is ready and you need to eat. Please put the blocks in the box and come to the table."
+
+But Anna and Ben did not listen to their mom. They said, "No, mom, we want to play more. We are not hungry. We will clean up later." And they kept playing with the blocks.
+
+Their mom was angry and sad. She said, "Anna and Ben, you are being naughty and rude. You need to obey me and respect our home. If you do not clean up your toys, you will not get any lunch." And she left the room with a plate of sandwiches.
+
+Anna and Ben did not care. They said, "We do not need lunch. We have our blocks. We can play all day." And they continued to build and scatter the blocks.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Anna and Ben heard a loud noise from the kitchen. They ran to see what it was. They saw their mom on the floor, holding her head. She had slipped on a block that Anna and Ben had left on the floor. She had dropped the plate of sandwiches and it had broken into pieces. She was bleeding and crying.
+
+Anna and Ben were scared and sorry. They said, "Mom, mom, are you okay? We are so sorry. We did not mean to hurt you. We were just playing. Please forgive us."
+
+Their mom said, "Anna and Ben, I love you, but you have been very bad. You did not listen to me and you made a mess. You caused me to fall and hurt myself. You wasted our food and broke our plate. You need to learn to be responsible and careful. You need to clean up your toys and say sorry to me and to each other."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and hugged their mom. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We love you, too. We will clean up our toys and say sorry. We will be good from now on."
+
+They helped their mom to get up and to clean the kitchen. They put away their blocks and apologized to each other. They ate their lunch and said thank you to their mom. They learned their lesson and never scattered their blocks again.
+
+The moral of the story is: Listen to your parents and clean up your toys. Do not scatter your things and cause trouble. Be respectful and kind to your family.
+Lily loved summer. She liked to play outside with her friends, swim in the pool, and eat ice cream. But she did not like the big dogs that lived next door. They barked a lot and sometimes ran out of their yard. Lily was frightened of the big dogs.
+
+One day, Lily was playing with her ball in her yard. She threw the ball high in the air and tried to catch it. But the ball went over the fence and into the next yard. Lily heard the big dogs bark and saw them run to the ball. She wanted to get her ball back, but she was too scared to go near the big dogs.
+
+She ran to her mom and told her what happened. Her mom said, "Don't worry, Lily. I will help you get your ball back. We will prevent the big dogs from getting it." She took Lily's hand and walked to the fence. She called the big dogs' owner and asked him to put the dogs inside. He said he was sorry and did what she asked.
+
+Then, her mom climbed over the fence and got the ball. She threw it back to Lily and climbed back over. Lily was happy to have her ball back. She hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. You are brave and smart. You prevented the big dogs from getting my ball." Her mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, Lily. I love you. Now let's go play some more." They went back to their yard and played with the ball until it was time for dinner. Lily had a fun summer day.
+Mia loves to cook with her mom. She is very enthusiastic and wants to help with everything. Today, they are making soup for lunch.
+
+"Can I try the soup, mom?" Mia asks, holding a spoon.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. It is too hot. And we need to add some salt," mom says, sprinkling a little bit of the white powder into the pot.
+
+"What is salt, mom?" Mia wonders, looking at the small grains.
+
+"Salt is something that makes food taste better. But we have to be careful not to put too much, or it will be too salty," mom explains.
+
+Mia nods, but she is curious. She wants to know how salt tastes by itself. She sees a small bowl of salt on the counter. She sneaks over and dips her finger in it. Then she puts it in her mouth.
+
+"Yuck!" Mia spits out the salt. It is very bitter and makes her tongue hurt. She runs to the sink and drinks some water.
+
+"Mia, what are you doing?" mom asks, seeing her face.
+
+"I tried the salt, mom. It is not good!" Mia says, making a face.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs her. "I'm sorry, honey. Salt is not meant to be eaten alone. It is only good when we mix it with other things. Next time, ask me before you try something new, okay?"
+
+"Okay, mom. I'm sorry. Can I try the soup now?" Mia asks, hoping it will be better.
+
+"Sure, let me cool it down a bit. Then we can try it together," mom says, ladling some soup into two bowls.
+
+Mia and mom sit at the table and taste the soup. It is warm and delicious. Mia smiles and says, "Mmm, this is good, mom. I like the soup. And I like the salt, too. But only a little bit."
+One day, a good witch named Lila went to the park with her cat, Luna. She wanted to display her magic to the children who were playing there. She thought they would like to see some colorful sparks and bubbles.
+
+She found a nice spot under a big tree and took out her wand. She waved it in the air and said, "Sparkle, sparkle, pop, pop!" Soon, the air was filled with bright sparks and bubbles that made the children laugh and clap.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" one boy said. "How do you do that?"
+
+Lila smiled and said, "I am a witch, and this is my magic. Do you want to try?"
+
+The boy nodded and ran to Lila. She handed him her wand and said, "Just say the words and wave the wand. Be careful, though. Don't point it at anyone or anything."
+
+The boy took the wand and said, "Sparkle, sparkle, pop, pop!" He waved the wand and made more sparks and bubbles. He was very happy and said, "This is fun! Thank you, witch!"
+
+Lila was glad that the boy liked her magic. She said, "You're welcome. You can keep the wand for a while, but don't forget to give it back to me later. I have to go home soon."
+
+The boy agreed and said, "Okay, I will. Thank you again, witch. You are a good witch."
+
+Lila smiled and said, "Thank you. You are a good boy. Have fun with the wand, but be careful."
+
+She watched the boy play with the wand and the other children. She felt happy that she could display her magic and make them happy. She petted Luna and said, "We did a good thing today, Luna. We made some new friends." Luna purred and rubbed her head against Lila's cheek. They both felt happy and warm.
+One day, Lily and Ben went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and elephants. But Lily's favorite animal was the ostrich. She liked its long neck, big eyes, and fluffy feathers.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" Lily said, pointing to the ostrich. "It is so pretty and fast! I admire it very much!"
+
+Ben looked at the ostrich, but he was not impressed. He thought it was silly and funny. He laughed and said, "It is not pretty, Lily, it is goofy! It has no wings, and it sticks its head in the sand!"
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She did not like Ben's words. She said, "No, Ben, you are wrong! The ostrich is not goofy, it is amazing! It can run faster than a car, and it can kick very hard! It does not stick its head in the sand, it digs holes for its eggs!"
+
+Ben did not believe Lily. He said, "Prove it, Lily, prove it! Show me how the ostrich digs holes for its eggs!"
+
+Lily did not know how to prove it, but she had an idea. She saw a big pile of sand near the ostrich enclosure. She ran to the sand and started to dig with her hands. She said, "Look, Ben, look! I am digging like the ostrich!"
+
+Ben followed Lily and saw her digging. He thought it was fun and joined her. He said, "Me too, Lily, me too! I am digging like the ostrich!"
+
+Soon, they made a big hole in the sand. They were happy and proud. They smiled and hugged each other. They said, "We are ostriches, we are ostriches!"
+
+Their mom saw them and came to them. She said, "What are you doing, Lily and Ben? You are all dirty and sandy!"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at their mom and said, "We are digging like the ostrich, mom! We admire the ostrich, it is so pretty and fast!"
+
+Their mom laughed and said, "You are very clever and creative, Lily and Ben! I admire you, too! But now, let's go and wash up, and see some more animals!"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and followed their mom. They were cheerful and excited. They loved the zoo and the ostrich. They learned a lot and had a lot of fun.
+One day, Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big bird with many feathers. The bird was red and blue and yellow. It was very pretty.
+
+Ben and Lily wanted to touch the bird. They ran to the bird and tried to catch it. But the bird did not like that. The bird flew away and dropped some feathers. Ben and Lily picked up the feathers.
+
+Ben said, "I want all the feathers. They are mine." Lily said, "No, I want some feathers too. They are not only yours." Ben and Lily started to fight. They pulled and pushed and shouted.
+
+A man saw them and came to them. He said, "Stop fighting. Fighting is not nice. Why do you want the feathers?" Ben and Lily said, "The feathers are pretty. We want to keep them."
+
+The man said, "The feathers are pretty, but they belong to the bird. The bird needs them to fly and stay warm. You can look at them, but you should not take them. How would you feel if someone took your hair or your clothes?"
+
+Ben and Lily felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry. We did not think about the bird. We will not take the feathers." The man said, "That is good. You can still play with the feathers, but you should be creative. You can make something with them, like a hat or a necklace or a picture. Then you can share them with each other and with your friends."
+
+Ben and Lily liked that idea. They stopped fighting and started to be creative. They made a hat for Ben, a necklace for Lily, and a picture for the man. They had fun and they were happy. The bird saw them and smiled.
+Lily loved to play with her marbles. She had many marbles of different colors and sizes. She liked to roll them, sort them, and make patterns with them. But her favorite thing to do was to fit them into the holes of her wooden board. She had a special board with many holes that were just right for her marbles.
+
+One day, she found a new marble in her toy box. It was shiny and blue, and it had a star inside. Lily thought it was the most beautiful marble she had ever seen. She wanted to fit it into her board, but it was too big. She tried to push it, but it would not go in. She tried to find a bigger hole, but there was none. She felt miserable. She wanted to play with her new marble, but it did not fit.
+
+She showed her marble to her brother, Tom. Tom was older and knew more words. He looked at the marble and said, "That's not a marble, Lily. That's a glass bead. It's for making necklaces and bracelets. See, it has a hole in the middle. You can put a string through it and wear it."
+
+Lily did not understand what Tom was saying. She did not know what a bead, a necklace, or a bracelet was. She only knew that her marble did not fit. She started to cry. She did not want to wear her marble. She wanted to fit it into her board.
+
+Tom felt sorry for his sister. He wanted to make her happy. He had an idea. He went to his room and came back with a string and some scissors. He cut a piece of string and put it through the hole of the blue marble. Then he tied the ends together. He gave it to Lily and said, "Here, Lily. This is a necklace. You can put it around your neck and it will look pretty. You can still play with your other marbles on your board. But this one is special. It's a gift from me."
+
+Lily stopped crying. She looked at the necklace and smiled. She put it around her neck and felt the marble on her chest. It was shiny and blue, and it had a star inside. She liked it. She hugged Tom and said, "Thank you, Tom. You are a good brother. I like my necklace. It fits me."
+Tim and Sue were twins who liked to play. One day, they saw their dad go to his office. They wanted to see what he did there. They asked their mom if they could go with him. She said no, it was not a place for kids. She said he had to work and they had to play.
+
+But Tim and Sue were curious. They waited until their mom was busy in the kitchen. Then they sneaked to the office door. They opened it a little and peeked inside. They saw their dad sitting at a big desk. He had a lot of papers and a computer. He looked busy and serious.
+
+They also saw something else. On the floor, behind the desk, there was a big, hairy, brown thing. It looked like a bear. It was sleeping and snoring. Tim and Sue were scared. They wondered what it was and why it was there. They wanted to ask their dad, but they did not want to wake up the bear.
+
+They decided to be brave and go inside. They tiptoed to the desk and whispered to their dad. "Dad, dad, what is that?" they asked, pointing to the bear. Their dad looked up and smiled. He was not angry. He was happy to see them.
+
+"That is not a bear, kids. That is my friend, Bob. He is a dog. A very big and hairy dog. He comes to the office with me sometimes. He likes to sleep under the desk. He is very friendly and gentle. Do you want to meet him?" he asked.
+
+Tim and Sue nodded. They liked dogs. They wanted to meet Bob. Their dad called Bob's name. The big, hairy, brown thing woke up and stretched. He came out from under the desk and wagged his tail. He licked Tim and Sue's faces and made them laugh. They petted him and played with him. They forgot they were scared.
+
+Their dad was happy to see them having fun. He said they could stay in the office for a little while, but they had to be quiet and not touch his papers or his computer. He said he had to finish his work. He said he was glad they asked him about Bob. He said he loved them and Bob loved them too. Tim and Sue hugged their dad and Bob. They were happy too. They learned something new and made a new friend. They decided the office was not so bad after all.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to travel. They had a big map on the wall of their bedroom. They would point to different places and pretend they were there. Sometimes they would pack their bags and act like they were going on a plane or a train.
+
+One night, they heard a strange noise outside their window. They looked and saw a big balloon with a basket. It was red and yellow and had a fire on top. They saw a man waving at them from the basket. He had a long beard and a hat.
+
+"Hello, children!" he shouted. "Do you want to travel with me? I can take you to many wonderful places. Just hop in and we'll be off!"
+
+Anna and Ben were curious and excited. They wanted to see the balloon and the places the man talked about. They grabbed their bags and ran to the window. They climbed into the basket and said hello to the man.
+
+"Welcome, welcome!" he said. "My name is Mr. Mysterious and I'm a balloonist. I travel all over the world and have many stories to tell. Are you ready for an adventure?"
+
+"Yes, yes!" Anna and Ben said.
+
+"Good, good!" Mr. Mysterious said. He pulled a rope and the balloon went up in the air. Anna and Ben looked down and saw their house getting smaller and smaller. They saw the stars and the moon and felt the wind in their hair.
+
+They asked Mr. Mysterious where they were going. He smiled and said, "You'll see, you'll see. It's a surprise. A very special surprise."
+
+Anna and Ben felt a little scared. They wondered if they should have gone with the man. They missed their mom and dad and their bedroom. They wanted to go back home.
+
+They told Mr. Mysterious they wanted to go back. He shook his head and said, "No, no. You can't go back. You're mine now. You're my new toys. I collect children from all over the world and keep them in my balloon. You'll never see your home again."
+
+Anna and Ben cried and screamed. They tried to get out of the basket, but it was too high and too fast. They were trapped with Mr. Mysterious and his balloon. They wished they had never left their bedroom. They wished they had never met Mr. Mysterious. They wished they had never traveled.
+Tom and Anna wanted to play outside. They put on their coats and boots and hats. They opened the door and saw the lawn. It was white and shiny. It was icy.
+
+"Wow, look at the lawn!" Tom said. "It is like a big cake with sugar on top."
+
+"Can we eat it?" Anna asked.
+
+Tom shook his head. "No, we can't eat it. It is not sugar. It is ice. It is very cold and hard. If we touch it, our fingers will hurt."
+
+Anna frowned. She did not understand. She wanted to taste the lawn. She reached out her hand and touched the ice. She felt a sharp pain. She pulled back her hand and cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts! It hurts!" Anna sobbed.
+
+Tom ran to her and hugged her. He felt sorry for her. He tried to make her feel better.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna. I told you not to touch the ice. It is not good for you. It is only good for looking. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna nodded. She understood. She wiped her tears and smiled.
+
+"OK, Tom. I understand. I won't touch the ice again. But can we still play outside?"
+
+Tom smiled back. He was glad she was not sad anymore.
+
+"Sure, we can still play outside. But we have to be careful. The ice is slippery. We can slide and fall. We can make snowballs and throw them. We can make a snowman and a snow angel. We can have fun. Do you want to do that?"
+
+Anna clapped her hands. She liked the idea.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes! I want to do that. Let's go, Tom. Let's play on the icy lawn!"

+
+"Can I touch your robot?" Ben asks Sam.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. It is my favorite toy," Sam says.
+
+Ben touches the robot and presses a button. The robot changes into a car and makes a loud noise. Ben is surprised and drops the robot. The robot breaks and stops working.
+
+"Oh no! I'm sorry, Sam. I didn't mean to break your robot," Ben says.
+
+Sam is sad and angry. He cries and shouts at Ben. "You are a bad friend! You broke my toy! Go away and don't come back!"
+
+Ben is sad and sorry. He tries to hug Sam and say sorry, but Sam pushes him away. Ben runs away and cries.
+
+Sam and Ben are not friends anymore. They are lonely and miss each other. They wish they could change what happened and be friends again.
+Sara and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a doll and Tom had a car. They were having fun, but they also wanted to see what was in the big box under the tree. It was a gift from their grandma, but they had to wait until Christmas to open it.
+
+"Can we peek inside the box?" Tom asked Sara. "Just a little bit?"
+
+"No, we can't," Sara said. "Mommy said we have to mind and not touch the box. It is a surprise."
+
+"But I want to know what it is," Tom said. "Maybe it is something cool, like a robot or a dinosaur."
+
+Tom moved closer to the box and tried to lift the lid. Sara grabbed his arm and pulled him back.
+
+"Stop it, Tom!" Sara said. "You are being naughty. Mommy will be mad if you open the box."
+
+Tom did not listen to Sara. He pushed her away and lifted the lid. He looked inside the box and saw something shiny and round. He reached for it, but as soon as he touched it, he felt a shock. He screamed and dropped the thing. It made a loud noise and sparks flew out of it.
+
+Sara and Tom were scared. They ran to the couch and hugged each other. They felt their hearts beating fast and their hands shaking. They heard footsteps and saw Mommy coming into the living room.
+
+"What happened?" Mommy asked. She saw the box, the thing, and the smoke. She looked at Sara and Tom with a frown. "Did you open the box?"
+
+Sara and Tom nodded. They felt tears in their eyes. They knew they had done something bad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mommy," Sara said. "We were curious. We wanted to see what was in the box."
+
+"It was a mistake, Mommy," Tom said. "We didn't know it would shock us. It hurt a lot."
+
+Mommy sighed. She was angry, but she was also worried. She checked Sara and Tom for injuries. She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"I'm glad you are okay," Mommy said. "But you should have minded me and not opened the box. It was a dangerous thing. It was a hair dryer for Grandma. She has curly hair and she likes to make it straight. But you can't play with it. It has electricity and it can hurt you."
+
+Sara and Tom felt sorry. They said they were sorry again. They asked Mommy to forgive them.
+
+Mommy smiled. She said she forgave them, but they had to learn their lesson. She said they had to be careful and listen to her. She said they had to wait until Christmas to open their own gifts. She said she loved them very much.
+
+Sara and Tom said they loved Mommy too. They said they would mind her and not touch the box again. They said they hoped Grandma would like her gift. They said they were excited for Christmas.

+
+The cat sees Tom and feels sorry for him. He comes down from the tree and goes to Tom. He licks Tom's face and tries to make him feel better. He sees Tom's collar and reads his name. He says, "Don't worry, Tom. I will help you."
+
+The cat runs to the house and scratches the door. He meows and meows until Tom's mom and dad hear him. They open the door and see the cat. They are surprised and wonder what the cat wants. The cat runs back to the yard and leads them to Tom.
+
+Tom's mom and dad see Tom and are very sad. They pick him up and hug him. They say, "Oh, Tom, we are so sorry. We love you. We will take you to the vet and make you well again."
+
+The cat watches them and feels happy. He thinks, "Tom is a good dog. He was just playing. I hope he gets better soon. Maybe we can be friends." He waves his tail and says, "Goodbye, Tom. See you later."

+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump on the grass. The grass was green and soft. They saw a big dog near the grass. The dog was smelly and loud. It barked at them.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Lily said. "This is our grass!"
+
+The dog did not go away. It ran towards them. It wanted to play, but Lily and Tom were scared. They did not like the smelly dog.
+
+"Help, help!" Tom cried. "The dog is coming!"
+
+Lily saw a stick on the ground. She picked it up. She waved it at the dog. She wanted to protect Tom and herself.
+
+"Shoo, shoo!" Lily said. "Leave us alone!"
+
+The dog stopped. It saw the stick. It thought the stick was a toy. It wagged its tail. It wanted the stick.
+

+
+They go to their mom. They tell her what happened.
+
+"Mom, the milk was spoiled. It was yucky," Tim says.
+
+"Mom, we tried the milk. It was awful. It made us sick," Kim says.
+
+Mom hugs them. She is sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tim and Kim. The milk was old. I forgot to check the date. You should always check the date before you drink milk. It tells you when the milk is good or bad," Mom says.

+Lily says, "No, mom. I want all the soup. It is my favorite. Ben can have something else." She holds her bowl tightly. She does not want to give any soup to Ben.

+Lily's mom says, "Lily, that is not nice. You have to be kind to your brother. He is hungry too. There is enough soup for both of you. You can have half of the soup, and he can have half of the soup. Then you can both enjoy the delicious pumpkin soup."
+
+Lily shakes her head. She does not want to share. She insists, "No, mom. I want all the soup. It is mine. Ben can have bread or cheese or fruit. He does not like soup as much as I do."

+Lily's mom is not happy. She says, "Lily, you are being selfish. You have to learn to share with your brother. He is your family. He loves you and you love him. Sharing is caring. If you share the soup with him, he will be happy and you will be happy too. And I will be proud of you."
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She looks at Ben. He looks sad. He wants some soup too. He likes pumpkin soup. He loves Lily. He does not want to fight with her.

+
+Her mom came back and looked at the spider. She saw the sock and the buttons and realized it was a toy. She hugged Lila and said, "You are a very clever girl, Lila, but you also gave me a big fright! Next time, please don't put a spider on the table, even if it's a toy. Spiders belong outside, not inside."
+
+Lila said she was sorry and helped her mom clean up the cookie crumbs. She put her toy spider back in her box of blocks. She decided to make a different surprise for her mom next time. Maybe a flower, or a drawing, or a song. Something that would make her mom happy, not scared.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with paper. They learned how to fold paper into different shapes, like boats, hats, and planes. They had a lot of fun making their own paper toys and pretending to sail, wear, and fly them.
+
+One day, they decided to make a paper town. They folded paper into houses, shops, cars, and trees. They arranged them on the floor and made up stories about the people who lived there. They were very proud of their paper town and showed it to their mom and dad.
+
+But then, their baby brother Tom came into the room. He saw the paper town and wanted to play with it too. He crawled over and grabbed some of the paper houses and cars. He tore them and crumpled them and threw them around. He did not know he was ruining the paper town.
+
+Lily and Ben were very upset. They shouted at Tom and tried to stop him. They cried and said, "No, Tom, no! That's our paper town! You broke it! You are bad!"
+
+Mom and dad heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. They saw the paper town in pieces and the twins in tears. They also saw Tom, who looked confused and scared. He did not understand why his brother and sister were angry at him.
+
+Mom and dad hugged the twins and said, "We're sorry, Lily and Ben. We know you worked hard on your paper town. But Tom is too little to know how to play with paper. He did not mean to hurt your paper town. He just wanted to join you."
+
+They helped the twins pick up the paper and said, "Maybe you can fold some new paper toys and share them with Tom. He would love to learn from you and play with you. And maybe you can make a new paper town together, when Tom is older and more careful."
+
+Lily and Ben sniffed and nodded. They still felt sad, but they also felt sorry for Tom. They gave him some of their paper toys and showed him how to fold them gently. They said, "It's okay, Tom. We forgive you. We love you. You can play with us."
+
+Tom smiled and hugged them. He said, "Thank you, Lily. Thank you, Ben. I love you too. You are good."
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books and crayons. But their room is very messy. Mom says they have to sort their things and put them away.
+
+"Let's start with the desk," Ben says. He goes to the desk and sees many papers and pencils and stickers. He picks up a paper and shows it to Lily. "Look, this is my drawing of a dog. Do you like it?"
+
+"Yes, it is very nice. But we have to sort it. This is a paper, so it goes in the paper box. And this is a pencil, so it goes in the pencil cup. And this is a sticker, so it goes in the sticker book. Come on, help me," Lily says. She takes the paper from Ben and puts it in the box. She gives him the pencil and the sticker.
+
+Ben and Lily work together. They sort all the things on the desk. They put them in the right places. Soon the desk is clear. They are happy.
+
+"Good job, twins!" Mom says. She comes to the room and sees the desk. She smiles. "You sorted your things very well. Now the desk is clear and neat. I am proud of you."
+
+"Thank you, Mom," Ben and Lily say. They hug Mom. They feel good. They like to sort their things and make their room clear.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big fountain in the park. It has water that goes up and down. Sara and Ben think it is very pretty.
+
+They run to the fountain and look at the water. They see fish and frogs and ducks in the water. They want to touch them, but mom and dad say no. They say the water is not for touching, only for looking.
+
+Sara and Ben are thirsty. They ask mom and dad for a drink. Mom and dad have a bottle of juice for them. They give them each a cup and pour some juice. Sara and Ben drink the juice. It is sweet and cold. They say thank you to mom and dad.
+
+They look at the fountain again. They wonder how the water goes up and down. They wonder where the fish and frogs and ducks come from. They wonder if they can play with them. They think they are adorable.
+
+Mom and dad smile and hug them. They say they are adorable too. They say they can tell them more about the fountain later. They say it is time to go home. Sara and Ben nod and hold their hands. They say goodbye to the fountain and the animals. They say they will come back another day.
+Lily was excited to go to the park with her mom. She loved to swing, slide and play with the sand. She put on her hat, shoes and coat and ran to the door.
+
+"Wait, Lily, we need to bring a snack and some water," her mom said. She packed a bag with some crackers, cheese and juice. "And we need to wear our masks, too. It's important to stay safe from the germs."
+
+Lily did not like to wear a mask. It was hot and itchy and it made her nose run. She tried to resist when her mom put the mask on her face. She pulled it down and said, "No, no, no!"
+
+"Lily, please, we have to wear the mask. It's the rule. Everyone wears a mask at the park. It helps us and others not get sick. Don't you want to go to the park?" her mom asked.
+
+Lily did want to go to the park. She wanted to swing, slide and play with the sand. But she also did not want to wear the mask. She felt a worry in her tummy. She looked at her mom and saw that she was wearing a mask, too. She saw that her mom was smiling with her eyes.
+
+"Okay, mom, I will wear the mask. But can I take it off when we eat the snack?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, sweetie. You can take it off when we eat the snack. And when we drink the water. And when we are far away from other people. But when we are close to other people, we have to wear the mask. Can you do that?" her mom said.
+
+Lily nodded. She put the mask back on her face. She held her mom's hand and walked to the car. She was still excited to go to the park. She hoped there would be other kids to play with. She hoped they would wear masks, too. She hoped they would have fun.

+
+The old man opened his bag and gave them each a handful of sugar. He said, "You are welcome, children. But be careful, too much sugar is not good for you. You should eat some fruits and vegetables, too."
+
+Tom and Lily ate the sugar and felt happy. They said, "Sugar is yummy. We like sugar. But we like fruits and vegetables, too. We eat them at home with mommy and daddy."
+
+The old man nodded. He said, "That's good, children. You are smart and healthy. Now, do you want to play with me? I have a ball and a kite."
+
+Tom and Lily said, "Yes, please. We like to play. Can we play with you?"
+
+The old man said, "Of course, children. Come on, let's go to the field. We can spring and run and fly the kite."
+
+Tom and Lily followed the old man to the field. They had fun playing with him. They springed and ran and flew the kite. They laughed and shouted and sang. They made a new friend. They were happy.
+Tim and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toys and run in the park. One day, their mom said they had to go to the barber. The barber was a man who cut hair with scissors. Tim and Sam did not like the barber. They said he was big and scary.
+
+They got in the car and drove to the barber shop. Mom parked the car and told them to get out. Tim and Sam did not want to get out. They cried and hid under the seats. Mom was angry. She said they had to get out or they would be in trouble. She pulled them out of the car and dragged them to the barber shop.
+
+The barber shop was noisy and busy. There were many people waiting for their turn. The barber saw Tim and Sam and smiled. He said he had a special chair for them. It was a big red chair that looked like a rocket. He said it could fly to the moon. Tim and Sam liked rockets. They forgot about the scissors. They followed the barber to the chair.
+
+The barber lifted Tim and put him on the chair. He said he had to weigh him first. He pressed a button and the chair made a loud beep. The barber said Tim was very light. He said he had to cut his hair to make him heavier. He took the scissors and started to cut Tim's hair. Tim felt the scissors on his head. He screamed and tried to get off the chair. The barber held him down and said it was almost done.
+
+Sam watched from the side. He was scared. He did not want to sit on the chair. He did not want the barber to cut his hair. He ran to the door and tried to open it. It was locked. He banged on the door and shouted for mom. Mom did not hear him. She was talking on the phone outside. Sam was trapped. He cried and cried. The barber finished with Tim and looked at Sam. He said it was his turn. He grabbed Sam and put him on the chair. Sam screamed louder than Tim. The barber pressed the button and the chair made a louder beep. The barber said Sam was very heavy. He said he had to cut his hair to make him lighter. He took the scissors and started to cut Sam's hair. Sam felt the scissors on his head. He wished he was on the moon. The end.

+
+She heard a voice. It was the moon. The moon said, "Don't be afraid, Lily. I'm your friend. I watch over you every night. I'm glad you came to visit me. But I know you miss your home. You can go back anytime you want. Just close your eyes and wish."
+
+Lily smiled. She thanked the moon for being so kind and nice. She said, "I like you, moon. You're beautiful and fun. But I love my home more. I want to go back. Maybe I'll see you again in another dream."
+
+She closed her eyes and wished. She felt a gentle lift. She opened her eyes and saw the moon getting smaller and smaller as she got farther and farther. She waved goodbye to the moon. She saw the rocket flying back to the earth. She felt happy and peaceful.
+
+She woke up in her bed. She saw the moon through her window. It was still big and bright and made shapes in the sky. She smiled and said, "Good night, moon. Thank you for the dream. I'll remember it always." She snuggled under her blanket and fell asleep. She felt warm and cozy and comfortable.

+
+"Let's go, Anna, it looks fun!" Ben said.

+
+"Ben, where are you?" Anna shouted.
+
+"Anna, help me!" Ben shouted.
+
+They tried to find their way out, but they could not. They wished they had listened to their mom.
+
+Then, they saw something cute. It was a puppy. The puppy was brown and fluffy. It had a red collar with a tag. The tag said "Milo".
+
+"Milo, can you help us?" Anna asked.
+
+The puppy barked and wagged its tail. It seemed to know the maze. It ran ahead of them and showed them the way. Ben and Anna followed Milo. They were happy.
+
+Soon, they reached the exit. They saw their mom waiting for them. She was angry and worried.
+
+"Ben, Anna, where were you? I told you not to go to the maze!" she said.
+
+"Sorry, mom, we got lost. But Milo helped us," Ben said.
+
+"Milo? Who is Milo?" mom asked.
+
+They pointed to the puppy. The puppy ran to them and licked their faces. They hugged the puppy.
+
+"Milo is our new friend. He is cute and smart," Anna said.
+
+Mom looked at the puppy. She saw the tag. She smiled.
+
+"Milo belongs to the farmer who made the maze. He is a good dog. He saved you," she said.
+
+She thanked the farmer and Milo. She took Ben and Anna home. She gave them a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Next time, listen to me, okay? The maze is not a game. It is dangerous," she said.
+
+"Okay, mom, we are sorry. We love you," Ben and Anna said.
+
+They learned their lesson. They never ran to the maze again. They only played with Milo when the farmer let them. They were good twins.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to go to the market with their mom. They saw many things at the market: fruits, vegetables, flowers, toys, and books. Sometimes, mom let them choose something to buy.
+
+One day, they saw a big pile of unknown things at the market. They were shiny and round and had holes in them. Lily and Ben wondered what they were.
+
+"Mom, what are these?" Lily asked.
+
+"They are called CDs, dear. They have music and stories on them. You need a special machine to play them," mom explained.
+
+"Can we have one, mom? Please?" Ben begged.
+
+Mom looked at the price tag and shook her head. "No, honey, they are too expensive. And we don't have the machine to play them. Come on, let's go."
+
+But Lily and Ben did not want to go. They wanted to have a CD. They started to cry and scream and kick.
+
+"Quit it, you two!" mom said. "You are making a scene. You can't always have what you want. You have to be grateful for what you have."
+
+Lily and Ben did not listen. They kept crying and screaming and kicking. Mom was very angry and embarrassed. She grabbed their hands and dragged them out of the market.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for making mom angry. They wished they had not been so naughty. They hugged mom and said they were sorry.
+
+Mom hugged them back and said she loved them. She said they could go to the library and borrow some books instead. Lily and Ben liked books. They smiled and agreed.
+
+They went to the library and found many books with pictures and words. They forgot about the unknown things at the market. They were happy to read and learn new things.
+Lila and Tom are little kids who like to play with snow. They make a big snowman in their yard, with a hat, a scarf, and a carrot nose. They are very proud of their snowman.
+
+"Hello, snowman!" Lila says. "You are our friend. We will take care of you."
+
+"Yes, we will," Tom says. "You are very cool and nice."
+
+But the sun is very bright and warm. It makes the snow melt. The snowman starts to get smaller and smaller. His hat falls off, his scarf slides down, and his carrot nose drops to the ground.
+
+"Oh no!" Lila cries. "Our snowman is melting! He will go away!"
+
+"Maybe we can save him," Tom says. "We can make a network of snowballs around him. They will keep him cold and safe."
+
+They work hard to make many snowballs and pile them up around the snowman. They hope the network will help him.
+
+"Please don't melt, snowman," Lila says. "Please stay with us."
+
+But the sun is too strong. It melts the snowballs and the snowman. Soon, there is only a puddle of water left.
+
+Lila and Tom are very sad. They hug each other and cry.
+
+"Goodbye, snowman," they say. "We will miss you. You were our friend."
+Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. They have a network of roads and buildings with their blocks. They are happy.
+
+One day, a new boy comes to play. His name is Ben. He has a big truck. He wants to play with Sam and Mia. But he is rude. He does not ask. He does not share. He breaks their network. He knocks down their blocks. He makes them sad.
+
+"Stop!" Sam says. "You are rude. You break our network. We do not like that."
+
+"I do not care," Ben says. "I have a big truck. I can do what I want. You have small cars. They are silly."
+
+Mia is angry. She takes her car and hits Ben's truck. Ben's truck falls. Ben cries. He runs away.
+
+Sam and Mia hug. They are friends. They fix their network. They are happy.
+Tom and Mia are adventurous kids. They like to explore new places and play with different things. One day, they find a big box in the garage. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom says. He tries to lift the lid, but it is too heavy. He sees a handle on the side of the box. He pulls it hard, but nothing happens.
+
+"Maybe it is locked," Mia says. She looks around and sees a key on a shelf. She climbs up and grabs it. She puts it in the hole on the handle and turns it. The box makes a click sound.
+
+"Wow, you did it!" Tom says. He lifts the lid again and sees a lot of shiny things inside. They are tools and gadgets that belong to their dad. He is an inventor and he makes cool things.
+
+"Look at this!" Mia says. She picks up a small device that has a button and a light. She presses the button and the light flashes. She points it at Tom and says, "Zap! You are a frog!"
+
+Tom laughs and says, "No, you are a frog!" He picks up another device that has a dial and a speaker. He turns the dial and the speaker makes a funny noise. He points it at Mia and says, "Ribbit! Ribbit!"
+
+They have fun playing with the tools and gadgets. They pretend to be different animals and make different sounds. They do not realize that their dad is coming home. He hears the noise from the garage and goes to check.
+
+He opens the door and sees Tom and Mia with his tools and gadgets. He is angry and surprised. He says, "What are you doing with my stuff? You could have broken them or hurt yourselves!"
+
+Tom and Mia are scared and sorry. They drop the tools and gadgets and say, "We are sorry, dad. We just wanted to see what was in the box. We did not mean to make you mad."
+
+Their dad sighs and says, "I know you are curious and adventurous, but you have to be careful and respectful. These are not toys, they are my work. Some of them are dangerous and some of them are fragile. You have to ask me before you touch them, okay?"
+
+Tom and Mia nod and say, "Okay, dad. We are sorry. We will not do it again."
+
+Their dad hugs them and says, "I love you, kids. But please, stay away from the box. It is not for you."
+
+Tom and Mia say, "We love you, too, dad. And we will stay away from the box."
+
+They go inside and have a snack. They decide to play with their own toys instead. They still have fun, but they also learn a lesson. They realize that some things are not for them, and they have to respect their dad's work.
+Sara and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. They also liked to look at the flowers. The flowers were beautiful. They had many colors and smells.
+
+One day, Sara and Tom saw a big bee. The bee was flying near the flowers. Sara and Tom wanted to see the bee. They went closer to the flowers. The bee saw them and got angry. The bee did not like Sara and Tom. The bee wanted the flowers for itself.
+
+The bee flew at Sara and Tom. It made a loud noise. Sara and Tom were scared. They tried to run away. But the bee was faster. The bee stung Sara on her arm. Sara cried. It hurt a lot. Tom tried to help Sara. He pulled the bee out of her arm. But the bee stung Tom on his hand. Tom cried too. It hurt a lot.
+
+Sara and Tom ran to their mom. Their mom was sitting on a bench. She saw Sara and Tom crying. She saw the bee stings. She was worried. She hugged Sara and Tom. She said, "I'm sorry, my loves. You have to go to the doctor. The doctor will make you feel better."
+
+Sara and Tom did not want to go to the doctor. They were afraid of the doctor. They thought the doctor would hurt them more. They said, "No, mom. We don't want to go to the doctor. We want to stay with you. We want to play in the park."
+
+But their mom said, "No, Sara and Tom. You have to go to the doctor. The bee stings are bad. They can make you sick. The doctor will not hurt you. The doctor will help you. Trust me, my loves. It will be okay."
+
+Sara and Tom did not trust their mom. They did not believe her. They were angry and sad. They did not want to leave the park. They did not want to leave the flowers. The flowers were beautiful. They did not want to leave the ground. The ground was soft and warm. They did not want to leave their mom. Their mom was kind and sweet.
+
+But their mom took them to the car. She drove them to the doctor. Sara and Tom cried all the way. They did not like the car. The car was loud and cold. They did not like the road. The road was hard and gray. They did not like the doctor. The doctor was strange and scary.
+
+The doctor gave Sara and Tom some medicine. The medicine was bitter and yucky. The doctor put some bandages on their stings. The bandages were sticky and itchy. The doctor said, "You will be fine, Sara and Tom. The medicine will make the pain go away. The bandages will protect your skin. You can go back to the park tomorrow. But be careful of the bees. They can hurt you."
+
+Sara and Tom did not feel fine. They felt worse. They did not want the medicine. They did not want the bandages. They did not want to go back to the park. They did not want to see the bees. They did not want to see the flowers. They did not want to see the ground. They did not want to see anything. They wanted to go home. They wanted to go to bed. They wanted to forget everything.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Tom had a big cart that he could push around and fill with blocks. Lily had a small doll that she could dress up and hug. Tom liked his cart, but he also wanted to play with Lily's doll. He thought the doll was pretty and soft.
+
+"Can I have your doll, Lily?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, Tom, this is my doll. You have your cart," Lily said.
+
+"But I want to play with your doll. Please, Lily, please," Tom begged.
+
+"No, Tom, no. Go away," Lily said.
+
+Tom felt angry and jealous. He did not like Lily's answer. He wanted to make Lily sad. He pushed his cart towards Lily and bumped into her. Lily fell down and dropped her doll. She started to cry.
+
+"Tom, that was mean! You hurt me and my doll!" Lily shouted.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw Tom and Lily on the floor. She saw the cart and the doll.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked.
+
+"Tom pushed me with his cart. He wanted my doll. He was jealous," Lily said.
+
+"Tom, is that true?" Mom asked.
+
+Tom looked down and nodded. He felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+"Tom, that was not nice. You should not push your sister or take her toys. You should share and be kind. Say sorry to Lily," Mom said.
+
+Tom got up and walked to Lily. He gave her a hug and said, "Sorry, Lily. I was mean. I like your doll, but I like you more. Can we play together?"
+
+Lily smiled and wiped her tears. She hugged Tom back and said, "It's okay, Tom. I forgive you. I like your cart, but I like you more. Yes, we can play together."
+
+Mom smiled and picked up the doll. She gave it to Lily and said, "Here, Lily, your doll is fine. She is very pretty and soft. You take good care of her."
+
+Then she picked up the cart and gave it to Tom and said, "And here, Tom, your cart is fine. It is very big and strong. You can do many things with it."
+
+Tom and Lily thanked Mom and took their toys. They decided to play together and share. They had fun and made each other happy. Mom watched them and felt proud. She clapped her hands and said, "Well done, Tom and Lily. You are good children. I love you both."
+
+Tom and Lily heard Mom and looked at her. They smiled and clapped their hands too. They said, "We love you too, Mom."
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big pile of coal near the road. They wanted to touch it and see what it felt like.
+
+"Let's go and play with the coal!" Tom said.
+
+"No, we can't. Mom said coal is dirty and bad for us. We have to listen to Mom," Lily said.
+
+But Tom did not listen to Lily. He ran to the coal and grabbed a handful. He rubbed it on his face and hands. He laughed and said, "Look, I'm a coal man!"
+
+Lily was scared. She saw a big truck coming on the road. The truck was purple and loud. She shouted, "Tom, come back! The truck is coming!"
+
+But Tom did not listen to Lily. He was too busy playing with the coal. He did not see the truck or hear Lily. The truck was very fast and very close.
+
+Lily ran to Tom and pulled him away from the coal. They fell on the grass, just in time. The truck passed by and honked its horn. Tom and Lily were safe, but they were very dirty and scared.
+
+"Tom, you have to listen to me and Mom. Coal is not a toy. It is dangerous. And you have to watch out for trucks. They can hurt you," Lily said.
+
+Tom was sorry. He hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You are right. I was silly and naughty. I will listen to you and Mom from now on. Thank you for saving me."
+
+Tom and Lily went home and washed their faces and hands. Mom was happy to see them, but she was also angry. She saw the coal on their clothes and hair. She said, "What did you do? Why did you play with the coal? Don't you know it is dirty and bad for you?"
+
+Tom and Lily told Mom what happened. They said they were sorry and they learned their lesson. Mom was glad they were safe, but she also said, "You have to listen to me and Lily. They are here to help you and protect you. Coal is not a toy. It is for the fire. And you have to watch out for trucks. They are big and fast and loud. They can hurt you."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and said, "We understand, Mom. We will listen to you and Lily. We will not play with coal or near the road again."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I love you, Tom and Lily. You are my good twins. But next time, please be careful and smart."
+
+The end.

+
+Tim picks up the mysterious truck and puts it in his big red truck. He wants to show it to his mom and dad. He drives his truck to the house and runs inside.

+
+Tim feels sad. He wants to show them his mysterious truck. He decides to wait for them on the couch. He puts his big red truck and his mysterious truck on the floor. He lies down on the couch and closes his eyes. He falls asleep.
+

+Lily and Tom were playing with blocks in the living room. They wanted to build a big tower with all the blocks they had. They worked hard and put block on top of block. They were happy and proud of their tower.
+
+But then, Lily saw a chair near the window. She wanted to sit on the chair and look outside. She left the blocks and ran to the chair. She climbed on the chair and looked at the birds and the trees.

+Tom heard Lily cry. He forgot his anger and sadness. He ran to Lily and helped her get up. He saw her knee and her elbow were red and sore. He said, "Lily, are you okay? I'm sorry you fell down. Do you want a hug?"
+
+Lily looked at Tom. She saw his worry and his kindness. She said, "Tom, I'm okay. Thank you for helping me. I'm sorry I left the blocks. Do you want to finish the tower with me?"
+
+Tom smiled and nodded. He said, "Yes, I want to finish the tower with you. Let's go back to the blocks. But first, let's find a band-aid for your knee and your elbow."

+Lisa loved her kitten, Snowy. Snowy was white and fluffy and had blue eyes. Lisa liked to play with Snowy and hug him. Snowy liked to chase balls and nap on Lisa's bed.
+
+One day, Lisa and Snowy went to the park with Mommy. There were many flowers and trees and birds in the park. Lisa and Snowy ran and jumped and had fun. Mommy sat on a bench and watched them.
+
+"Look, Snowy, a fancy hat!" Lisa said. She saw a big hat with feathers and ribbons on the grass. It was pink and purple and shiny. Lisa wanted to try it on. She put Snowy down and ran to the hat.
+
+"Meow!" Snowy said. He did not like the hat. He thought it was scary and silly. He wanted to stay with Lisa. He followed her to the hat.
+
+Lisa put the hat on her head. It was too big for her. It covered her eyes and ears. She could not see or hear anything.
+
+"Lisa, where are you?" Mommy called. She saw Lisa run to the hat. She did not see Snowy.
+
+"Snowy, where are you?" Lisa called. She took off the hat. She did not see Snowy.
+
+Snowy had vanished. He was not on the grass. He was not under the hat. He was not behind the trees. He was not with Mommy.
+
+Lisa and Mommy looked for Snowy. They called his name. They asked other people. They searched the park.
+
+"Snowy, where are you?" Lisa cried. She was sad and scared. She missed her kitten.
+
+"Meow!" Snowy said. He was in a basket. A lady had picked him up. She thought he was lost. She wanted to help him. She put him in her basket with her bread and cheese.
+
+"Who are you?" Snowy asked. He did not like the basket. He wanted to go back to Lisa.

+Lily and Ben like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is the spin-top. The spin-top is a toy that can spin very fast on the floor. It has many colors and makes a funny sound.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben decide to have a spin-top contest. They each choose a spin-top and take turns to spin it. They want to see whose spin-top can spin the longest. They are both good players and have fun.
+
+But then, Ben sees a new spin-top in the toy box. It is very fancy. It has glitter and stars and a big button. Ben wants to try it. He thinks it will spin better than his old spin-top. He puts his old spin-top away and takes the fancy one.
+
+Lily sees what Ben does. She feels sad. She likes her old spin-top. She thinks it is not fair that Ben changes his spin-top. She says to Ben, "You can't do that. You have to use the same spin-top as before. That is the rule."
+
+Ben does not listen to Lily. He says, "No, I can do what I want. This is my spin-top now. It is better than yours. Watch me spin it." He presses the button and spins the fancy spin-top.
+
+But something goes wrong. The fancy spin-top does not spin well. It wobbles and shakes and falls down. It makes a loud noise and breaks into pieces. Ben is shocked. He looks at his broken spin-top. He feels sorry.
+
+Lily sees what happens. She feels sorry for Ben too. She says to Ben, "I'm sorry your spin-top broke. It was very fancy. But you know, I like your old spin-top better. It can spin very long and has nice colors. Do you want to play with it again?"
+
+Ben nods. He says to Lily, "Yes, I do. Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. And you are right. The old spin-top is better. It is more fun. Can we share it?"
+
+Lily smiles. She says to Ben, "Yes, we can. We can take turns to spin it. We can have more contests. We can have more fun. We are both good players."
+
+Lily and Ben hug. They pick up the old spin-top and spin it together. They laugh and cheer. They are happy.
+Tim and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big bush with red berries. They want to eat the berries.
+
+"Look, Sue, berries!" Tim says. "Let's pick some."
+
+"OK, Tim, but we have to share," Sue says. "There are not many berries."
+
+They go to the bush and pick some berries. They put them in a thin bag. The bag is not strong. It has a hole.
+
+"Oh no, Tim, the bag is broken!" Sue says. "The berries are falling out!"
+
+Tim and Sue look at the bag. They see only a few berries left. They are sad.
+
+"What can we do, Sue?" Tim says. "We wanted to eat the berries."
+
+Sue thinks for a moment. She has an idea.
+
+"I know, Tim, we can share with the birds!" Sue says. "They like berries too."
+
+Tim smiles. He likes Sue's idea.
+
+"OK, Sue, let's share with the birds," Tim says. "They will be happy."
+
+They go to a bench and put the berries on it. They wait for the birds to come. Soon, they see some blue birds and yellow birds. The birds fly to the bench and eat the berries.

+
+Tim and Sue watch the birds. They clap their hands. They are happy.
+
+They have shared the berries with the birds. They have made new friends. They have had fun.
+Sara liked to sort things. She sorted her toys by color, shape and size. She sorted her books by how big they were. She sorted her clothes by how warm they were. She liked to make neat piles and rows of things.
+
+One day, Sara went with her mom to her mom's office. Her mom had to work on some papers and said Sara could play quietly in a corner. Sara saw a lot of things in the office. She saw pens, pencils, paper clips, staplers, scissors, envelopes, folders and more. She thought they looked messy and wanted to sort them.
+
+She started to take things from the desk and the drawers and sort them on the floor. She made a pile of pens, a pile of pencils, a pile of paper clips and so on. She was having fun and did not notice that her mom was busy and did not see what she was doing.
+
+Soon, the office looked very different. There were no things on the desk or in the drawers. There were only things on the floor. Sara was proud of her sorting. She wanted to show her mom.
+
+She called her mom and said, "Mom, look what I did! I sorted all the things in the office!"
+
+Her mom looked up and saw the mess. She was shocked and angry. She said, "Sara, what have you done? You made a big mess in the office! You took things that were not yours and moved them around! You did not ask me or anyone else! You did not listen to me when I said to play quietly! You made me and the other people in the office very unhappy!"
+
+Sara felt sad and scared. She did not mean to make a mess or make anyone unhappy. She just wanted to sort things and make them neat. She did not know that the things in the office were important and had a place. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I did not know. I just like to sort things. I did not want to make you unhappy."
+
+Her mom sighed and said, "I know, Sara. I know you like to sort things and you did not mean any harm. But you have to learn to respect other people's things and spaces. You have to ask before you touch or move anything. You have to listen to me when I tell you something. You have to understand that the office is not a place to play. It is a place to work. And sometimes work can be lonely and hard. That is why I need you to be good and quiet when you come with me."
+
+Sara nodded and said, "I understand, mom. I'm sorry. I will be good and quiet. I will not touch or move anything. I will not sort things in the office. I will only sort things at home or in my room. And I will give you a hug when you feel lonely and hard."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Thank you, Sara. I love you. You are a good girl. And I like that you like to sort things. It is a good skill to have. Maybe when you grow up, you can have your own office and sort things there. But for now, let's clean up this mess and go home."
+
+Sara hugged her mom and said, "I love you too, mom. You are a good mom. And I will help you clean up. And maybe when we go home, we can sort some cookies and eat them together."
+
+Her mom laughed and said, "That sounds like a good idea, Sara. Let's do that."
+Ben and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toys in the yard. Ben had a big red truck that he loved. Sam had a small blue car that he liked.
+
+One day, Sam saw Ben's truck and wanted to play with it. He asked Ben, "Can I have your truck, please?"
+
+Ben said, "No, this is my truck. You have your car. Go away."
+
+Sam felt sad and angry. He said, "Your truck is better than my car. I want it. Give it to me."
+
+Ben said, "No, no, no. This is mine. You are stubborn. Go away."
+
+Sam did not go away. He tried to grab the truck from Ben. Ben held on to the truck. They both pulled and pushed. They both shouted and cried.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the yard. She saw Ben and Sam fighting over the truck. She was not happy. She said, "Stop it, both of you. You are being naughty and selfish. You need to share your toys and be nice to each other."
+
+Ben and Sam did not listen to Mom. They kept fighting over the truck. They did not see the big dog that came into the yard. The dog saw the truck and thought it was a bone. He ran to the truck and bit it. He took the truck in his mouth and ran away.
+
+Ben and Sam saw the dog take the truck. They both let go of the truck. They both said, "No, no, no. That is our truck. Come back, dog. Give us our truck."
+
+But the dog did not come back. He ran out of the yard with the truck. Ben and Sam ran after the dog. But they could not catch him. The dog was too fast. He disappeared with the truck.
+
+Ben and Sam came back to the yard. They both felt sad and sorry. They both said, "We lost our truck. We were stupid. We should have shared. We should have listened to Mom."
+
+Mom saw Ben and Sam. She sighed. She said, "I told you so. You learned a hard lesson. Maybe next time you will be more careful and kind. Now go to your room and think about what you did."
+
+Ben and Sam went to their room. They did not have their truck. They did not have their car. They did not have any toys. They only had each other. They hugged and said, "We are sorry. We love each other. We will share next time."
+
+But it was too late. The truck was gone. The dog was happy. The end.
+Ben and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big tree with red fruits. They want to eat the fruits.
+
+"Let's have a race!" Ben says. "Who can spring to the tree and get a fruit first will win!"
+
+"OK!" Sam says. "Ready, set, go!"
+
+They run as fast as they can. Ben is faster than Sam. He springs to the tree and grabs a fruit. He bites it and makes a face.
+
+"Yuck!" Ben says. "This fruit is sour! It hurts my mouth!"
+
+Sam catches up with him. He sees Ben's face and laughs.
+
+"Ha ha!" Sam says. "You got a sour fruit! That's what you get for being greedy!"
+
+Ben feels bad. He spits out the fruit and says sorry.
+
+"Sorry, Sam," Ben says. "I was not nice. I wanted to win too much. Can we share the fruits?"
+
+Sam smiles and nods. He picks another fruit and gives it to Ben.
+
+"Here, Ben," Sam says. "This one is sweet. It tastes good. We can be friends again."
+
+Ben takes the fruit and thanks Sam. He bites it and smiles.
+
+"Mmm!" Ben says. "This fruit is sweet! It makes me happy!"
+
+They share the fruits and enjoy them. They learn that being greedy is not good. Being kind and sharing is better. They hug and play some more.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play on the farm. One day, they go to the barn. They want to see the animals.
+
+Inside the barn, they hear a loud sound. It is a cow. The cow says, "Moo!" Lila and Ben are scared. They hide behind a bale of hay.
+
+Then, they see a small animal. It is a kitten. The kitten is lively. It runs and jumps and plays. Lila and Ben smile. They come out of their hiding place. They want to pet the kitten.
+
+The kitten sees them. It is curious. It comes closer. It rubs its head on Lila's hand. It purrs. Lila says, "Hello, kitten. You are cute. What is your name?"
+
+The kitten does not answer. It just meows. Ben says, "Maybe it does not have a name. Can we give it a name?"
+
+Lila thinks. She says, "How about Spot? It has a black spot on its nose."
+
+Ben likes it. He says, "Spot is a good name. Do you want to be our friend, Spot?"
+
+The kitten nods. It licks Ben's face. It is happy. Lila and Ben are happy too. They have a new friend. They hug the kitten. They say, "We are glad to meet you, Spot."
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big tent with a sign that said "Magic Show". They wanted to see the magic, so they ran to the tent and paid with their coins.
+
+Inside the tent, there was a man with a long coat and a hat. He had a wand and a box. He said, "Welcome to my magic show! I will show you amazing things. But you have to be alert and pay attention. If you blink, you might miss something."
+
+He waved his wand and opened the box. Out came a rabbit, a dove, and a flower. The twins clapped and cheered. They liked the magic. The man smiled and said, "That was easy. Now, for my final trick, I need a volunteer. Who wants to come up?"
+
+Lily raised her hand. She wanted to be part of the magic. The man picked her and said, "Come here, little girl. You are very brave. What is your name?"
+
+"Lily," she said.
+
+"Very well, Lily. You are going to meet someone very special. Someone who lives in the box. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily nodded. She was curious and excited. The man said, "Okay, then. Close your eyes and count to three."
+
+Lily closed her eyes and said, "One, two, three."
+
+She opened her eyes and gasped. In front of her, there was a lion. A big, yellow, furry lion. It roared and showed its teeth. Lily was scared and screamed. She wanted to run away.
+
+But the man said, "Don't be afraid, Lily. This is Leo, my friend. He is a magic lion. He won't hurt you. He just wants to say hello."
+
+Lily looked at the lion. He looked at her. He stopped roaring and licked her face. He was soft and warm. He was friendly. Lily smiled and hugged him. She was not scared anymore. She liked the lion.
+
+The man said, "See? You met a magic lion. Isn't that wonderful? You are very lucky, Lily. You are a good girl. Now, say goodbye to Leo and go back to your seat."
+
+Lily said, "Bye, Leo. Thank you for the magic." She kissed the lion and went back to her seat. Ben was waiting for her. He was happy for her. He said, "Wow, Lily. You met a magic lion. That was awesome. You are very brave."
+
+Lily said, "Thank you, Ben. It was fun. I like magic. Do you want to see more?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, I do. Let's watch the rest of the show."
+
+They watched the rest of the show and clapped and cheered. They had a great time. They learned that magic was real and that they could meet new friends. They were alert and paid attention. They never blinked. They never missed anything.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They also liked to wear funny hats. Anna had a pink hat with flowers. Ben had a blue hat with stars.
+
+"Look at my hat!" Anna said. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Look at my hat!" Ben said. "It is so cool!"
+
+They showed their hats to each other and smiled.
+
+But then a big boy came. He had a green hat with spikes. He looked at Anna and Ben and laughed.
+
+"Your hats are silly!" he said. "They are not funny, they are ugly!"
+
+He grabbed Anna's hat and threw it on the ground. He grabbed Ben's hat and put it on his head.
+
+"Hey!" Anna and Ben said. "That is rude! Give us our hats back!"
+
+But the big boy did not listen. He ran away with Ben's hat. He stuck his tongue out at them.
+
+Anna and Ben were sad and angry. They wanted their hats back. They chased the big boy, but he was too fast.
+
+They stopped at the edge of the park. They saw the sunset. It was orange and red and yellow. It was very beautiful.
+
+They looked at each other and sighed.
+
+"Maybe we can get our hats back tomorrow," Anna said.
+
+"Maybe," Ben said. "But I still like your hat. It is pretty."
+
+"And I still like your hat. It is cool."
+
+They hugged each other and smiled.
+
+They watched the sunset together. They forgot about the big boy and his rude hat. They were happy.
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have a big box of toys in their room. One day, they find a new toy in the box. It is a red car that makes noise and moves by itself.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Ben says. He picks up the car and turns it on. The car makes a loud vroom sound and starts to roll on the floor.
+
+"Let me see!" Sam says. He runs after the car and tries to catch it. The car is too fast for him. It zooms around the room and bumps into the walls and the furniture.
+
+"Be careful!" Ben says. "Don't break it!"
+
+Sam does not listen. He wants to play with the car. He grabs it and pushes a button. The car makes a hissing sound and a cloud of gas comes out of the back.
+
+"What did you do?" Ben says. He coughs and covers his nose. The gas smells terrible. It makes his eyes water and his throat hurt.
+
+"I don't know!" Sam says. He drops the car and runs away. The gas keeps coming out of the car. It fills the room and makes it hard to see.
+
+"Help!" Ben and Sam shout. They run to the door and try to open it. But the door is locked. They forgot to unlock it when they came in.
+
+"Mom! Dad!" Ben and Sam cry. They bang on the door and hope someone will hear them.
+
+Mom and Dad are downstairs. They hear the noise and smell the gas. They run upstairs and see the smoke coming out of the boys' room.
+
+"Oh no!" Mom says. She grabs a key and unlocks the door. She opens it and sees Ben and Sam on the floor. They are coughing and crying.
+
+"Are you okay?" Dad says. He picks up the boys and carries them out of the room. He puts them on the couch and gives them some water.
+
+"What happened?" Mom says. She looks at the car and sees the gas leaking out of it. She reads the label on the car. It says: "Warning: Do not press the turbo button. It will increase the gas and cause a fire hazard."
+
+"This is a dangerous toy!" Mom says. She throws the car in the trash. "Who gave you this?"
+
+Ben and Sam look at each other. They do not know. They found it in the box. Maybe it was a gift from someone. Maybe it was a mistake.
+
+They are sorry for playing with the car. They are sorry for making a mess. They are sorry for scaring Mom and Dad.
+
+They hug Mom and Dad and say: "We love you. We are sorry. Please don't be mad."
+
+Mom and Dad hug them back and say: "We love you too. We are not mad. We are glad you are safe. But please be careful next time. And don't play with strange toys."
+Tim and Mia are playing in the park. They like to pretend they are cops and robbers. Tim has a toy gun and Mia has a toy badge. They run and hide behind the trees and the swings.
+
+"Stop, robber! You are under arrest!" Mia shouts, pointing her badge at Tim.
+
+"No, you can't catch me! I have the money!" Tim says, holding a paper bag.
+
+They chase each other around the park, laughing and having fun. But then, they see a real robber. He is wearing a mask and a big coat. He has a real gun and a real bag of money. He is running away from a real cop. The cop is trying to catch him, but he is too fast.
+
+"Look, Mia, a real robber!" Tim says, pointing at the man.
+
+"Look, Tim, a real cop!" Mia says, pointing at the woman.
+
+The robber sees Tim and Mia. He thinks they are witnesses. He runs towards them. He wants to scare them or hurt them. He raises his gun.
+
+"Get out of my way, kids!" he yells.
+
+Tim and Mia are scared. They don't know what to do. They freeze.
+
+But the cop sees the robber. She is brave and smart. She runs faster. She tackles the robber. She knocks the gun out of his hand. She puts handcuffs on him.
+
+"Got you, robber! You are going to jail!" she says.
+
+She calls for backup. She waits for more cops to come. She checks on Tim and Mia.
+
+"Are you okay, kids?" she asks.
+
+Tim and Mia nod. They are okay. They are amazed.
+
+"Wow, you are a hero, cop!" Tim says.
+
+"You saved us, cop!" Mia says.
+
+The cop smiles. She is modest. She doesn't think she is a hero. She thinks she is just doing her job.
+
+"Thank you, kids. But I'm not a hero. I'm just a cop. And you are very brave, too. You didn't panic. You stayed calm. You helped me catch the robber. You are good cops, too." she says.
+
+Tim and Mia smile. They are happy. They are proud.
+
+"Thank you, cop. You are the best cop ever. Can we be your friends?" they ask.
+
+The cop nods. She is happy. She is proud.
+
+"Of course, kids. You are my friends. And you can call me Lisa." she says.

+
+One day, they saw a poster for a song contest. The poster said that the best singers would get prizes. Lily and Max wanted to join the contest. They thought they could win.
+
+They practiced their songs every day. They tried to sing louder, faster, and better than each other. They did not help each other or share their songs. They became very competitive.
+
+The day of the contest came. Lily and Max went on the stage. They sang their songs one by one. The judges listened and clapped. But they did not look happy.
+
+The judges said that Lily and Max had good voices, but they did not sing with joy. They said that singing is not a number game, but a way to express feelings and have fun. They said that Lily and Max should sing together, not against each other.
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry. They realized that they had been selfish and rude. They hugged each other and apologized. They asked the judges if they could sing one more song. The judges agreed.
+
+Lily and Max sang a song that they both liked. They sang with smiles, harmony, and love. The judges and the audience cheered and clapped. They said that Lily and Max had learned a valuable lesson. They gave them a prize for being the best team.

+Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play with their dad's things. One day, they found a big box in the garage that said "lab". They opened it and saw many shiny and colorful things inside. They wanted to touch them and see what they did.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is a funny stick that makes a snap sound when you bend it!" Mia said, holding a glow stick.
+
+"Wow, let me try!" Ben said, grabbing another one. He snapped it and saw it glow in the dark.
+
+They snapped more and more glow sticks, making a mess in the garage. They did not hear their dad coming home from work.
+
+"What are you doing, kids?" their dad asked, shocked. He saw the broken glow sticks and the liquid on the floor. "This is my lab kit, it has chemicals and tools for my experiments. You could have hurt yourselves or damaged something. This is terrible!"
+
+Ben and Mia felt scared and sorry. They did not know they were doing something bad. They looked at their dad with sad eyes.
+
+"We are sorry, dad. We just wanted to play. We did not know these were your things. Please don't be mad at us," they said.
+
+Their dad sighed and hugged them. He was not mad, but he was worried. He explained to them that some things were not toys and that they should always ask before touching something that was not theirs. He also told them that he was proud of their curiosity and that he would show them some safe and fun experiments they could do together.
+
+Ben and Mia learned their lesson. They apologized to their dad and helped him clean up the garage. They also promised to be more careful and respectful of other people's things. They were happy when their dad showed them how to make a volcano with baking soda and vinegar. They had fun and learned something new.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play outside with their dog, Spot. One day, they go to the lake with their mom and dad. The lake is big and blue and has many fish and ducks.
+
+Anna and Ben want to feed the ducks. They have some bread in a bag. They run to the edge of the lake and throw some bread into the water. The ducks swim to the bread and eat it. Anna and Ben laugh and clap.
+
+Spot sees the ducks and wants to play with them. He barks and runs after them. He jumps into the lake and splashes the water. The ducks are frightened and fly away. Spot swims after them and barks louder.
+
+"Spot, come back!" Anna and Ben shout. They are worried about their dog. They do not want him to get lost or hurt.
+
+"Spot, stop!" their mom orders. She is angry and scared. She does not want Spot to bother the ducks or go too far. She whistles and calls his name.
+
+Spot hears his mom and stops. He turns around and sees her. He swims back to the shore and shakes his fur. He is wet and happy. He wags his tail and licks his mom's face.
+
+"Bad dog!" his mom says. But she hugs him and smiles. She is glad he is safe.
+
+"Good dog!" Anna and Ben say. They hug him too. They love their dog.
+
+They all go back to the car and drive home. They have had a fun day at the lake.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a dove on a tree. The dove was white and pretty. They wanted to touch the dove.
+
+"Hello, dove!" Anna said. "Can we be your friends?"
+
+The dove looked at them and cooed. It did not fly away. Anna and Ben smiled. They walked slowly to the tree.
+
+But then a big dog came. The dog barked and ran to the tree. The dove was scared. It flew away, but the dog jumped and bit its wing. The dove fell to the ground. It was hurt.
+
+"Bad dog! Go away!" Ben shouted. He threw a stick at the dog. The dog ran away.

+Anna and Ben ran to the dove. The dove was bleeding. It made a sad sound.
+
+"Oh no, dove! You are hurt!" Anna said. She picked up the dove gently. She hugged it.
+
+"Can we help you, dove?" Ben asked. He looked for a bandage.
+
+The dove looked at them and cooed softly. It understood that they were kind. It felt a little better.
+
+Anna and Ben took the dove to their home. They cleaned its wing and put a bandage on it. They gave it some water and seeds. They made a nest for it.
+
+"Thank you, Anna and Ben," the dove said in its own way. "You are good friends."
+
+Anna and Ben smiled. They were happy to help the dove. They hoped it would heal soon. They loved the dove.
+One day, a little monkey named Mimi was playing in the jungle with her friends. She liked to swing from the vines, jump on the branches, and eat bananas. She was having so much fun that she forgot to bathe.
+
+"Come on, Mimi, it's time to go home and bathe," her mother called.
+
+"But I don't want to bathe, Mommy. I want to play more," Mimi said.
+
+"You have to bathe, Mimi. You are dirty and smelly. You have mud on your fur, bugs in your hair, and banana peels on your tail. If you don't bathe, you will get sick and no one will want to play with you," her mother said.
+
+Mimi pouted and followed her mother to the river. She did not like the water. It was cold and wet. She tried to hide behind a palm tree, but her mother found her.
+
+"Stop being silly, Mimi. Bathing is good for you. It will make you clean and fresh. Look, I have a soap for you. It smells like flowers. And I have a towel for you. It is soft and fluffy. And I have a surprise for you. It is a toy for you to play with in the water. It is a rubber duck. It is yellow and cute. It can float and squeak. Do you want to see it?" her mother said.
+
+Mimi's eyes lit up. She loved surprises. She loved toys. She loved ducks. She came out from behind the palm tree and ran to her mother.
+
+"Yes, Mommy, I want to see it. I want to play with it. I want to bathe with it," Mimi said.
+
+Her mother smiled and gave her the rubber duck. Mimi took it and hugged it. She thanked her mother and followed her to the river. She dipped her toes in the water and felt it was not so bad. She splashed her face and felt it was refreshing. She rubbed her fur with the soap and felt it was smooth. She rinsed her hair and felt it was shiny. She dried herself with the towel and felt it was cozy. She played with the duck and felt it was fun. She quacked and laughed and enjoyed herself.
+
+She looked at her mother and said, "Mommy, you were right. Bathing is good for me. I feel clean and fresh. I smell like flowers. I look like a star. I have a new friend. I am happy. Thank you, Mommy, for bathing me."
+
+Her mother hugged her and said, "You're welcome, Mimi. I'm proud of you. You learned a new thing today. Bathing is not only good for you, but also for others. When you bathe, you show respect for yourself and for others. You show that you care about your health and your appearance. You show that you are ready to face the world. You show that you are a good monkey."
+
+Mimi nodded and said, "I understand, Mommy. I will bathe every day. I will be a good monkey. I love you, Mommy."
+
+"I love you too, Mimi," her mother said.
+
+They hugged and kissed and went home together. Mimi was happy. She had learned a valuable lesson. She had learned to bathe.

+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They want their ball back. They run after the dog. They shout, "Hey, dog, give us our ball!"

+
+Anna and Ben see the dog. They see that he is sorry. They are not angry anymore. They say, "Thank you, dog, for giving us our ball. We are sorry for shouting at you. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The dog nods his head. He wags his tail more. He barks happily.
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They pick up their ball. They throw it to the dog. The dog catches it and brings it back. They play together in the park. They are friends.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They also make snowballs and throw them at each other. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But Anna and Ben also like to slide on the ice. They find a big hill with a lot of ice on it. They take turns to slide down the hill on their sleds. They go very fast and feel the cold wind on their faces. They scream and giggle.
+
+One time, Ben slides too fast and bumps into a tree. He falls off his sled and hurts his arm. He cries and says "Ow, ow, ow!" Anna hears him and slides down to help him. She sees his arm is red and swollen. She says "Oh no, Ben, are you okay?"
+
+Ben nods and says "I'm okay, Anna, but it hurts a lot. Can you help me go home?" Anna says "Of course, Ben, I'm your friend. I'll help you go home and tell your mom. She will make it better."

+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big trunk near a tree. The trunk is old and brown. It has a lock on it.
+
+"Let's try to open it!" Tom says. "Maybe there is something fun inside!"
+
+Jen is not sure. She thinks the trunk is scary. She says, "No, Tom. We don't know who owns it. Maybe it is not for us. Maybe it is dangerous."
+
+Tom does not listen. He is curious. He says, "Don't be silly, Jen. It is just a trunk. Come on, help me push it."
+
+Tom and Jen push the trunk. It is heavy. They push and push. They make a lot of noise. They do not see the man who is coming from behind the tree. The man is angry. He is the owner of the trunk. He has a big stick in his hand.
+
+"Hey, you!" the man shouts. "What are you doing with my trunk? Get away from it, you foolish kids!"
+
+Tom and Jen are scared. They try to run away. But it is too late. The man catches them. He hits them with his stick. He hurts them a lot. He locks them inside the trunk. He leaves them there. He goes away.
+
+Tom and Jen cry. They are sorry. They wish they had listened to Jen. They wish they had not tried to open the trunk. They are trapped. They are in trouble. They are very unhappy. The end.

+
+Ben felt sorry for Anna. He did not mean to hurt Lily. He said he was sorry and tried to help. He used his fingers and a comb to untangle Lily's hair. It took a long time, but he did it. He made Lily's hair smooth and pretty again.

+Sara was a spoiled girl who always wanted more toys. She had a big box full of dolls, cars, blocks and books, but she was never happy. She always asked her mom and dad for new things, and sometimes they gave her what she wanted, but sometimes they said no.
+
+One day, Sara saw a pretty umbrella in the store window. It was pink and purple, with flowers and butterflies on it. She wanted it very much, and she asked her mom to buy it for her. But her mom said no, because it was not raining and Sara had too many toys already. Sara was very angry and sad, and she cried and screamed all the way home.
+
+The next day, Sara had a plan. She took some money from her mom's purse, and she sneaked out of the house when her mom was busy. She ran to the store, and she bought the umbrella with the money. She was very happy, and she thought she was very clever. She opened the umbrella and twirled it around, feeling like a princess.
+
+But she did not see the big dog that was running towards her. The dog was very playful, and he liked to chase things that moved. He saw the umbrella, and he thought it was a toy. He jumped on Sara, and he bit the umbrella. He tore it to pieces, and he made a big mess. Sara was very scared, and she dropped the money. She ran away, crying and screaming.
+
+She ran back to her house, and she hoped her mom would not find out. But her mom saw her, and she saw the money on the ground, and she saw the pieces of the umbrella. She was very angry and sad, and she asked Sara what she had done. Sara did not know what to say, and she felt very sorry. She wished she had not been so spoiled, and she wished she had not taken the money, and she wished she had not bought the umbrella. She learned a hard lesson that day, and she never did it again.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were spies and send each other secret messages. They used envelopes and crayons to write and draw on them.
+
+"Tom, I have a message for you," Sara said, holding an envelope. "But you have to wipe your hands first. They are dirty from the cookies."
+
+Tom wiped his hands on his shirt and ran to Sara. He took the envelope and opened it. Inside, he saw a picture of a big, scary monster with sharp teeth and claws.
+
+"Ah!" Tom screamed and threw the envelope away. "Sara, why did you draw a scary monster? You scared me!"
+
+Sara laughed and hugged Tom. "I'm sorry, Tom. It was just a joke. I wanted to see your face. You are not really scared, are you?"
+
+Tom shook his head and smiled. "No, I'm not scared. It was a funny joke. But next time, draw something nice, okay?"
+
+"Okay, Tom. Next time, I will draw something nice. Like a flower or a rainbow or a puppy. Do you want to draw with me?"
+
+"Yes, Sara. I want to draw with you. But let's wipe the crayons first. They are messy from the monster."
+Jen and Tom were twins. They liked to play with their toys and eat snacks. One day, their mom gave them each an orange. Jen peeled her orange and ate it. Tom peeled his orange and saw something shiny inside.
+
+"Look, Jen, I found a coin in my orange!" Tom said. He showed Jen the coin. It was silver and had a picture of a man on it.
+
+"Wow, Tom, you are lucky!" Jen said. She wanted to find a coin in her orange too. She looked at her orange peel, but there was nothing there.
+
+"Can I have your coin, Tom?" Jen asked. She reached for the coin.
+
+"No, Jen, it's mine. I found it in my orange. It's a special coin. Maybe it will make me rich!" Tom said. He held the coin tight in his hand.
+
+Jen was sad. She wished she had a coin too. She thought Tom was not nice to keep the coin for himself. She decided to play with her toys and forget about the coin.
+
+The next day, Jen and Tom went to the park with their mom. They saw a man with a big hat and a long coat. He had a sign that said "I will feed your pets for a coin". He had a cage with a bird, a bowl with a fish, and a leash with a dog.
+
+"Mom, can we feed the pets?" Jen and Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, if you have a coin. Do you have a coin?" their mom asked.
+
+Jen shook her head. She did not have a coin. She remembered the coin that Tom found in his orange. She looked at Tom. Tom nodded. He had the coin. He took it out of his pocket and showed it to the man.
+
+"I have a coin. Can I feed the pets?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, kid. Here, take this bird seed and feed the bird. He likes to sing." the man said. He gave Tom a handful of bird seed and opened the cage.
+
+Tom was happy. He liked birds. He put the bird seed in his hand and reached for the bird. The bird saw the coin in Tom's other hand. The bird liked shiny things. The bird flew out of the cage and snatched the coin from Tom's hand. The bird flew away with the coin.
+
+"Hey, come back! That's my coin!" Tom shouted. He ran after the bird, but the bird was too fast. Tom could not catch the bird.
+
+Jen saw what happened. She felt sorry for Tom. He lost his coin. She also felt a little happy. He was not lucky anymore. She decided to share her toys with him and make him feel better.
+
+"Tom, don't be sad. You can play with my toys. I have a ball, a doll, and a car. Which one do you want?" Jen asked.
+
+Tom stopped running. He looked at Jen. He saw that she was nice to him. He smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Jen. You are a good sister. Can I play with the car?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, Tom. You can play with the car. I will play with the ball. Maybe we can find another coin someday." Jen said.
+
+They played with their toys and had fun. They forgot about the coin and the bird. They were happy.
+Ben liked to sail his toy boat in the pond. He had a long cord to pull it back when it went too far. He liked to make waves with his hand and watch the boat go up and down.
+
+One day, he saw a big duck in the pond. The duck was yellow and brown and had a green head. It looked at Ben and his boat. Ben thought the duck was nice and wanted to play. He sailed his boat closer to the duck.
+
+The duck did not want to play. It wanted to eat the boat. It opened its big mouth and bit the boat. The boat broke in half and sank. Ben was sad and scared. He pulled the cord to get his boat back, but it was too slow. The duck bit the cord and snapped it. Ben lost his boat and his cord.
+
+He ran to his mom and cried. His mom hugged him and said she was sorry. She said they would get a new boat and a new cord. She said they would not sail near the duck again. She said the duck was mean and greedy.
+
+Ben nodded and wiped his tears. He learned a lesson. He would be more careful with his boat and his cord. He would not trust the duck. He would sail in a safer place. He hoped to find a friend who liked to sail and play.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play by the river. They liked to watch the fish and the ducks and the otters. The otters were funny and fast and they made noises like "eeek" and "snort".
+
+One day, Tom and Mia saw a tall man with a big net. He was trying to catch the otters. Tom and Mia were scared and angry. They shouted at the man.
+
+"Stop! Leave the otters alone! They are our friends!"
+
+The man did not listen. He ran after the otters and threw his net. He caught one otter and put it in a bag. The other otters ran away and hid under the water.
+
+Tom and Mia cried. They wanted to help the otter. They ran to the man and pulled his bag. The man was stronger and he pushed them away. He got in his car and drove away with the otter.
+
+Tom and Mia were sad. They missed the otter. They hoped the otter was okay. They hoped the otter would come back. They hugged each other and said:
+
+"We will always love the otters. They are our friends."
+Lily was a charming girl who liked to open things. She opened boxes, books, doors, and jars. She wanted to see what was inside them. She was curious and happy.
+
+One day, she found a big clock in the attic. It was old and dusty, but it had a shiny key. Lily wanted to open the clock and see how it worked. She took the key and turned it in the hole. The clock made a loud tick-tock sound.
+
+Lily was excited. She opened the door of the clock and saw a bird. The bird was colorful and had a long tail. It looked at Lily and said, "Cuckoo, cuckoo!" Lily was surprised and delighted. She said, "Hello, bird! You are so pretty!"
+
+The bird said, "Cuckoo, cuckoo!" again and flapped its wings. It came out of the clock and flew around the attic. Lily laughed and clapped her hands. She followed the bird and played with it. She had a lot of fun.
+
+It was time for lunch. Lily heard her mom calling her name. She said, "Bye, bird! I have to go now. Maybe I will see you again." The bird said, "Cuckoo, cuckoo!" and flew back into the clock. Lily closed the door and left the key. She ran downstairs and hugged her mom. She told her about the charming bird in the clock. Her mom smiled and said, "That sounds like a wonderful adventure, Lily. You are a very lucky girl."
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to pretend they were in a shop and sell things to each other. Lily had a doll, a teddy bear, a ball and a book. Ben had a car, a train, a puzzle and a hat.
+
+"Lily, can I buy your doll?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, Ben. The price is two cookies," Lily said.
+
+"Two cookies? That's too much. How about one cookie and a hug?" Ben said.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She liked cookies and hugs, but she also liked her doll. She had a secret. She wanted to reveal it to Ben, but she was not sure if he would like it.
+
+"OK, Ben. You can have my doll for one cookie and a hug. But first, I have to tell you something," Lily said.
+
+"What is it, Lily?" Ben said.
+
+Lily looked around. She wanted to be quiet, so no one else would hear. She leaned closer to Ben and whispered in his ear.
+
+"My doll is magic. She can talk and sing and dance. But only when we are alone. Do you want to see?" Lily said.
+
+Ben's eyes widened. He loved magic. He nodded eagerly.
+
+"OK, but you have to promise not to tell anyone. And you have to be very nice to her. She is my best friend," Lily said.
+
+"I promise, Lily. I will be very nice to her. And I won't tell anyone. Cross my heart," Ben said.
+
+Lily smiled. She gave Ben her doll and took his cookie and hug. Then they went to the corner of the room, where they had a little tent. They crawled inside and closed the flap. Lily whispered a magic word and the doll came to life. She said hello to Ben and sang a song. Ben was amazed. He hugged the doll and thanked Lily for sharing her secret. They played happily for a long time, until their mom called them for dinner. They put the doll back to sleep and left the tent. They agreed to play again tomorrow, and to keep their secret safe. They were the best of friends.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. Sara wanted to give the snowman a bow, but Ben said no.
+
+"Bow is for girls, not snowmen," Ben said. "Snowmen need buttons and a carrot nose."
+
+"But I like bow," Sara said. "Bow is pretty and makes snowman happy."
+
+Sara was persistent. She ran to the house and got a pink bow from her room. She came back and put the bow on the snowman's head.
+
+"Look, Ben, now snowman has a bow," Sara said. "He looks so cute."
+
+Ben was angry. He took the bow off the snowman and threw it on the ground.
+
+"No, Sara, no bow," Ben said. "Bow is silly and makes snowman sad."
+
+Sara was sad. She picked up the bow and hugged it. She started to cry.
+
+"Ben, you are mean," Sara said. "You made me and snowman sad."
+
+Just then, their mom came out of the house. She saw Sara crying and Ben frowning.
+
+"What's going on, kids?" mom asked. "Why are you not having fun?"
+
+Sara and Ben told mom what happened. Mom listened and smiled.
+
+"I have an idea," mom said. "Why don't we make another snowman and give him a bow too? Then we can have two snowmen, one for Sara and one for Ben. And they can be friends."
+
+Sara and Ben liked mom's idea. They stopped crying and frowning. They worked together to make another snowman. They gave him a bow and a smile.
+
+"Look, mom, now we have two snowmen with bows," Sara and Ben said. "They are happy and we are happy too."
+
+Mom hugged Sara and Ben. She was proud of them.
+
+"That's wonderful, kids," mom said. "You are very creative and kind. Now let's go inside and have some hot chocolate. It's getting cold and we don't want to freeze."
+Sara and Ben like to play with paper. They can fold it into many shapes, like hats, boats, and planes. One day, they find a big sheet of paper in the closet. They want to make something big and fun.
+
+"Let's fold a giant plane!" Sara says.
+
+"OK, but how do we hold it?" Ben asks.
+
+"We can make a handle with tape!" Sara says.
+
+They work hard to fold the paper into a plane. They make a handle with tape on the middle. They are very proud of their plane.
+
+"Let's fly it outside!" Ben says.
+
+They run outside with their plane. They take turns holding the handle and running with the plane. The plane flies in the air behind them. They feel happy and free.
+
+But then, they see a big tree. The tree has many branches and leaves. The plane gets stuck in the tree. They cannot reach it.
+
+"Oh no, our plane!" Sara says.
+
+"How do we get it down?" Ben asks.
+
+They try to shake the tree. They try to throw rocks. They try to climb the tree. But nothing works. The plane is too high and too tangled.
+
+They feel sad and angry. They start to blame each other.
+
+"It's your fault, you ran too fast!" Sara says.
+
+"No, it's your fault, you made the handle too weak!" Ben says.
+
+They stop being friends. They go home without their plane.
+
+The next day, they miss their plane and their friend. They feel lonely and sorry. They decide to say sorry and help each other.
+
+They go back to the tree. They bring a ladder and a stick. They work together to reach the plane. They pull it gently and carefully. They free the plane from the tree.
+
+They hug each other and their plane. They feel happy and grateful.
+
+They learn a lesson. They learn to share and care. They learn to be kind and forgive. They learn to have fun and be safe. They are good friends again.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play near the old mill. The mill was big and quiet, and had many things to see and touch. But Lily's mom and Tom's dad told them not to go inside the mill, because it was dangerous and dirty.
+
+One day, Lily and Tom saw a hole in the wall of the mill. They wanted to peek inside and see what was there. Lily said, "Let's go inside, just for a little bit. It will be fun." Tom said, "No, we can't. Our parents said no. They will be angry and sad if we do." Lily said, "Please, Tom. I promise we will be careful and quick. We won't touch anything or make any noise. Please, please, please."
+
+Tom liked Lily and wanted to make her happy. He said, "Okay, Lily. But only for a little bit. And you have to promise to stay with me and not go too far." Lily said, "I promise, Tom. Come on, let's go."
+
+They crawled through the hole and entered the mill. It was dark and dusty, and they could hear strange sounds. They saw old machines and tools and bags and boxes. They walked around and looked at everything. Lily saw a shiny button on a big machine. She wanted to press it and see what it would do. She said, "Tom, look at this. I wonder what it does." Tom said, "Lily, don't touch it. It might be bad. Remember, we promised not to touch anything." Lily said, "But it's just a button. It won't hurt. I want to try it. Just once."
+
+She reached out her hand and pressed the button. Suddenly, the machine started to move and make loud noises. It had sharp blades and gears and belts that spun and whirred. Lily and Tom were scared and tried to run away. But it was too late. The machine caught them and pulled them in. They screamed and cried, but no one heard them. The mill was too quiet. They broke their promise, and they paid a terrible price.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play together at school. They have fun with toys, books and games. They also learn new things from their teacher.
+
+One day, their teacher tells them: "This week, we will start a healthy project. We will learn about good food, exercise and sleep. We will also do some activities to make us strong and happy."
+
+Sara and Ben are excited. They want to be healthy and learn more. They ask their teacher: "What can we do to start the healthy project?"
+
+Their teacher smiles and says: "You can do many things. You can eat fruits and vegetables for snack. You can drink water instead of juice. You can run and jump outside for recess. You can rest and nap after lunch. You can also draw and write about what you did and how you feel."
+
+Sara and Ben nod and say: "OK, we will try to do all those things. Thank you, teacher!"
+
+They start the healthy project with their classmates. They enjoy eating, drinking, playing, resting, drawing and writing. They feel good and happy. They also share their ideas and experiences with each other. They learn a lot and have fun. They are proud of themselves and their teacher. They think the healthy project is a great way to start the week.
+Anna and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat hot dogs. They saw a grill in the park. The grill had fire and smoke.
+
+"Look, Ben, a grill! Maybe we can get some hot dogs!" Anna said.
+
+"Good idea, Anna! Let's go!" Ben said.
+
+They ran to the grill. They saw a man with a big hat and a big apron. He was putting hot dogs on the grill.
+
+"Hello, mister, can we have some hot dogs?" Anna asked.
+
+The man looked at them and smiled. He had a big smile, but not a nice smile. He had a mean smile.
+
+"Sure, kids, you can have some hot dogs. But first, you have to do something for me," he said.
+
+"What do we have to do?" Ben asked.
+
+"You have to come with me to my car. I have some candy and toys for you there," he said.
+
+Anna and Ben liked candy and toys. They thought the man was nice. They did not know he was bad. They followed him to his car.
+
+The man opened the door and pushed them inside. He locked the door and got in the driver's seat. He started the car and drove away.
+
+"Help! Help!" Anna and Ben cried.
+
+But no one heard them. The man took them far away. He did not give them candy or toys. He did not give them hot dogs. He did bad things to them.
+
+Anna and Ben were sad. They wished they had not gone to the grill. They wished they had stayed with their mom and dad. They never saw them again.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. But today, they cannot play outside. There is a big storm. The big storm is called a hurricane. The hurricane makes a lot of wind and rain. The wind and rain can break things and hurt people.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They want to play outside. But their moms say no. Their moms say they have to stay inside. They have to be safe. They have to listen to their moms. Their moms are smart. They know what is good for Anna and Ben.
+
+Anna and Ben spend the day inside. They play with their toys. They read books. They draw pictures. They sing songs. They have fun. They forget about the hurricane. They are happy. They are good friends. They are good kids. They make their moms proud.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to celebrate their birthday. They always had a big cake, balloons, and games with their friends. This year, they wanted to do something different. They wanted to go on an adventure.
+
+They asked their mom and dad if they could go to the park and explore. Their mom and dad said yes, but they had to stay together and be careful. They also had to come back in time for their party.
+
+Anna and Ben put on their hats and backpacks and went to the park. They saw many things: flowers, birds, swings, slides, and a pond. They also saw a stranger. He was a man with a big beard and a guitar. He smiled at them and said hello.
+
+"Hello," Anna and Ben said back. They were curious about the man and his guitar.
+
+"Do you like music?" the man asked.
+
+"Yes, we do," Anna and Ben said.
+
+"Would you like to hear a song?" the man asked.
+
+"Yes, please," Anna and Ben said.
+
+The man played a song on his guitar. It was a happy song about celebrating life. Anna and Ben liked the song. They clapped and sang along.
+
+"Thank you for the song," Anna and Ben said when the man finished.
+
+"You're welcome," the man said. "Happy birthday, by the way. I saw your hats."
+
+"How did you know?" Anna and Ben asked.
+
+"I have a special gift. I can tell when someone is celebrating something," the man said. "You are very adventurous to go to the park by yourselves. But you should also be careful. There are some dangers in the world."
+
+"Like what?" Anna and Ben asked.
+
+"Like snakes, bees, and bad people," the man said. "You should always stay close to your mom and dad, and never talk to strangers."
+
+"But you are a stranger," Anna said.
+
+"That's true," the man said. "But I'm a good stranger. Not all strangers are good. Some are bad. You should always ask your mom and dad before you talk to someone you don't know."
+
+"OK," Anna and Ben said. They remembered what their mom and dad had told them.
+
+"Thank you for the advice," Anna and Ben said.
+
+"You're welcome," the man said. "Have a wonderful birthday. And remember to celebrate every day."
+
+Anna and Ben waved goodbye to the man and went back to their home. They told their mom and dad about their adventure and the man with the guitar. Their mom and dad hugged them and said they were proud of them. They also said they were lucky to meet a good stranger, but they should be more careful next time.
+
+Then they had their party. They ate cake, blew balloons, and played games with their friends. They also sang the song they had learned from the man. They had a lot of fun. They celebrated their birthday and their adventure. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily went to the grocery with Mom. They liked to see all the different things in the store. Mom said they could each pick one treat, but they had to wait until she was done shopping.
+
+Tom saw a big bag of candy. He wanted it very much. He ran to grab it, but Mom said no. She said it was too much sugar and bad for his teeth. Tom was angry. He did not want to listen to Mom. He pinched Lily's arm hard.
+
+"Ow!" Lily cried. "Tom pinched me! That hurts!"
+
+Mom heard Lily and turned around. She saw Tom holding the candy and Lily rubbing her arm. She was not happy. She took the candy from Tom and put it back on the shelf. She said to Tom, "That was very naughty. You do not pinch your sister or take things without asking. You have to say sorry to Lily and no treat for you today."
+
+Tom felt sorry. He did not mean to hurt Lily. He was just impatient. He said to Lily, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was mad, but I love you."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Tom. She said, "I love you too, Tom. It's okay. I forgive you."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them both. She said, "That's very good. I love you both. Now let's go pay for our groceries and go home."
+Lily and Ben were very hungry. They wanted to eat pizza for dinner. But they did not have any pizza at home. They decided to prepare their own pizza with the help of their mom.
+
+Mom gave them some dough, sauce, cheese and toppings. She told them to roll the dough, spread the sauce, sprinkle the cheese and add the toppings. Lily and Ben had fun making their pizza. They put some pepperoni, mushrooms, olives and pineapple on their pizza.
+
+They put their pizza in the oven and waited for it to bake. They smelled the yummy pizza and could not wait to eat it. But when they opened the oven, they saw something mysterious. Their pizza was gone! There was only a note on the tray. It said: "Thank you for the pizza. It was delicious. Love, the pizza fairy."
+
+Lily and Ben were surprised and confused. They looked at each other and asked: "Who is the pizza fairy? Where did our pizza go? How did the pizza fairy take our pizza?"
+
+Mom smiled and said: "I don't know, my dears. Maybe the pizza fairy was very hungry too. Maybe the pizza fairy liked your pizza so much that he or she wanted to share it with you. Maybe the pizza fairy left you a gift somewhere in the house."
+
+Lily and Ben ran to look for the gift. They searched in the living room, the bedroom, the bathroom and the closet. They found a big box with a bow on it. They opened the box and saw another pizza inside. It had a note on it. It said: "Here is another pizza for you. Enjoy it. You are very kind and generous. Love, the pizza fairy."
+
+Lily and Ben were happy and excited. They thanked the pizza fairy and hugged their mom. They ate the pizza and it was very tasty. They wondered if they would ever meet the pizza fairy. They decided to prepare more pizza next time and leave a slice for the pizza fairy. They hoped the pizza fairy would like it. They thought the pizza fairy was very mysterious and nice.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to sail. They had a small boat that their dad gave them. They would take turns to sit on the seat and steer the boat. They had fun sailing on the lake.
+
+One day, they saw a big boat with a wealthy man on it. The man had a shiny hat and a fancy coat. He had many things on his boat, like toys and books and food. Tom and Sam wanted to have those things too. They thought the man was very lucky.
+
+They sailed closer to the big boat and said hello to the man. The man looked at them and smiled. He said, "Hello, boys. Do you like sailing?"
+
+"Yes, we do," Tom and Sam said. "But we wish we had a boat like yours. You have so many things. You must be very happy."
+
+The man shook his head and said, "No, boys. I am not happy. I have too many things. They make me worry and sad. I don't have anyone to share them with. I wish I had a boat like yours. You have each other. You must be very happy."
+
+Tom and Sam looked at each other and realized that the man was right. They had something that the man did not have. They had a brother. They hugged each other and said, "We are happy. We have each other. We don't need anything else."
+
+They thanked the man and sailed away. They learned that being wealthy is not about having many things, but about having someone to love. They were happy sailing on their small boat.
+Tom and Lily like to play with their ball. They roll it to each other and catch it. Sometimes they roll it very fast and hard. Sometimes they roll it very slow and soft. They have fun with their ball.
+
+One day, they roll the ball too far. It goes over the fence and into the street. They hear a loud noise. It is a big truck. The truck hits the ball and makes it pop. The ball is broken. Tom and Lily are sad.
+
+The truck driver stops and gets out. He sees the ball and the children. He is sorry. He says he did not see the ball. He says it was an emergency. He says he had to go to the hospital with some sick people. He says he will give them a new ball.
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They say thank you to the truck driver. They say they are sorry for the sick people. They say they will be careful with their new ball. They say they will not roll it into the street.
+
+The truck driver smiles. He says they are good children. He says they are not silly. He says they are smart. He says he has to go now. He says goodbye and drives away.
+
+Tom and Lily wave to him. They go back to their yard. They play with their new ball. They roll it to each other and catch it. They have fun with their new ball.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide and swing and run. Sara saw a big hill and wanted to climb it. Ben said no, it was too high and steep. Sara did not listen. She said she was brave and strong and ran to the hill.
+
+Ben followed her, but he was careful. He did not want to fall and hurt himself. He saw Sara go up and up, faster and faster. He called to her, "Sara, stop! It is dangerous!" But Sara did not stop. She said she was fine and wanted to see the top.
+
+When Sara reached the top, she looked around. She saw the sky and the trees and the houses. She felt happy and proud. She did not see the hole behind her. She took a step back and fell into the hole. She screamed and cried. Ben heard her and ran to the hole. He looked down and saw Sara. She was bleeding and hurt. He recognized her knee. It was broken and twisted. He felt scared and sad. He shouted for help. But no one came. They were alone and stuck. Sara and Ben wished they had been more careful.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Anna liked to be a lion and Ben liked to be a monkey.
+
+"Roar!" Anna said, jumping on the couch. "I am the king of the jungle!"
+
+"Ooh-ooh-ah-ah!" Ben said, swinging from the lamp. "I am the fastest and smartest monkey!"
+
+They laughed and chased each other around the room. They did not see that their mom was busy in the kitchen and did not want them to make a mess.
+
+"Anna, Ben, stop running and jumping!" their mom said. "You will break something or hurt yourself!"
+
+But Anna and Ben did not listen. They were having too much fun. Anna decided to lead Ben to the hallway, where they could play hide and seek.
+
+"Come on, Ben, follow me!" Anna said, grabbing Ben's hand. "Let's go to the hallway and find a good hiding spot!"
+
+"Okay, Anna, let's go!" Ben said, following Anna. "But don't go too far!"
+
+They ran to the hallway, but they did not see that their dad had left his toolbox on the floor. He was fixing something in the bathroom and had forgotten to put it away.
+
+Anna and Ben tripped over the toolbox and fell to the floor. They heard a loud crash and saw that they had knocked over a vase and a picture frame. The vase and the frame broke into pieces and scattered on the floor.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna and Ben cried, rubbing their knees and elbows. They saw the broken vase and the frame and felt scared. They knew they had done something bad.
+
+"Anna, Ben, what have you done?" their mom said, coming to the hallway. She saw the mess and the toolbox and the crying children. She was angry and worried.
+
+"Mom, we're sorry, we're sorry!" Anna and Ben said, hugging each other. "We were playing and we did not see the toolbox and we fell and we broke the vase and the frame!"
+
+Their mom sighed and knelt down to hug them. She was glad they were not hurt, but she was also disappointed.
+
+"Anna, Ben, I love you, but you have to listen to me when I tell you to stop running and jumping," she said. "You could have hurt yourself or broken something more important. You have to be careful and respectful of our home."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and said they were sorry again. They helped their mom clean up the mess and put the toolbox away. They learned their lesson and promised to play more quietly and safely.
+Sam and Mia went to camp with Mom and Dad. They slept in a big tent and ate hot dogs on a fire. They liked camp very much.
+
+One day, they saw a big lake near the camp. They wanted to swim and play in the water. Mom and Dad said they could go, but they had to be careful and not touch anything that could hurt them.
+
+Sam and Mia ran to the lake and jumped in. They splashed and laughed and had fun. They saw some fish and frogs and ducks. They tried to catch them, but they were too fast.
+
+Then, Mia saw something shiny on the bottom of the lake. She swam closer and reached out her hand. She touched it and felt something hard and cold. She pulled it out of the water and showed it to Sam.
+
+"Look, Sam, I found a ring!" she said.
+
+"Wow, Mia, that's cool!" Sam said. "Where did it come from?"
+
+"I don't know," Mia said. "Maybe someone lost it a long time ago. Maybe it's magic!"
+
+They looked at the ring and saw it had a pretty stone that sparkled in the sun. They wondered what it could do.
+
+They decided to keep the ring and share it. They were glad they found it. They thought it was a special gift from the lake. They hugged each other and smiled. They loved camp and each other.
+Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play with their bikes in the park. Lila has a new bike with a pink wheel. Tom has an old bike with a blue wheel.
+
+One day, Tom sees Lila's bike and wants to try it. He says, "Lila, can I try your bike? It looks nice."
+
+Lila says, "No, Tom. This is my bike. You have your own bike."
+
+Tom feels angry. He says, "But your bike is better. My bike is old and slow. Please, let me try your bike."
+
+Lila says, "No, Tom. You are not nice. You are fierce. Go away."
+
+Tom does not go away. He tries to take Lila's bike. He pulls the pink wheel. Lila pulls the pink wheel too. They both pull hard. The pink wheel breaks. Lila and Tom are both sad. They cry.
+
+A lady sees them and comes to help. She says, "What happened, children? Why are you crying?"
+
+Lila and Tom tell her what happened. The lady says, "That is not good. You should not fight over a bike. You should share and be kind. Can you say sorry to each other?"
+
+Lila and Tom look at each other. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Lila. Sorry, Tom."
+
+The lady says, "That is good. Now, let me see if I can fix the pink wheel. Maybe we can find some tape or glue."
+
+Lila and Tom smile. They say, "Thank you, lady. You are nice. You are not fierce."
+Mia and Leo were best friends. They liked to play with pastels, the soft and colorful sticks that made pictures on paper. They had many pastels, but their favorite ones were pink and blue. They always shared their pastels and made beautiful drawings together.
+
+One day, they decided to be adventurous and explore the park near their house. They took their pastels and some paper and walked to the park. They saw many things: trees, flowers, birds, swings, slides, and a big pond. They wanted to draw everything they saw.
+
+They found a nice spot under a tree and started to draw. Mia drew a pink flower and Leo drew a blue bird. They showed each other their drawings and smiled. They were very proud of their work.
+
+"Your drawing is very pretty, Mia. I like your flower," Leo said.
+
+"Thank you, Leo. I like your bird. It looks very happy," Mia said.
+
+They hugged and exchanged their pastels. Mia gave Leo her pink pastel and Leo gave Mia his blue pastel.
+
+"I want you to have my pink pastel, Leo. It is my favorite, but I value your friendship more," Mia said.
+
+"I want you to have my blue pastel, Mia. It is my favorite, but I value your friendship more," Leo said.
+
+They were very happy and continued to draw with their new pastels. They made more pictures and had more fun. They learned that sharing and valuing their friends was more important than having their favorite things. They were adventurous and kind. They were best friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the sandbox. They had a big bucket and a small shovel. They wanted to fill the bucket with sand and make a castle.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can fill the bucket very fast!" Tom said. He used the shovel to scoop up sand and dump it in the bucket.
+
+"That's good, Tom, but be gentle with the sand. Don't spill it everywhere," Lily said. She used her hands to pat the sand and make it smooth.
+
+Tom and Lily filled the bucket with sand and turned it over. They lifted the bucket and saw a nice round shape. They smiled and clapped their hands.
+
+"Wow, we made a sand cake!" Tom said.
+
+"Let's make more. We can use this stuff to decorate it," Lily said. She pointed to some shells, rocks, and leaves that they had collected.
+
+Tom and Lily used the stuff to make eyes, nose, mouth, and hair for their sand cake. They had fun making different faces and giving them names.
+
+They were very proud of their sand cake. They showed it to their mom, who was sitting on a bench nearby.
+
+"That's a beautiful sand cake, Tom and Lily. You are very creative and clever," Mom said.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. We filled the bucket with sand and used stuff to make it pretty," Lily said.
+
+"We were gentle with the sand and didn't make a mess," Tom said.
+
+Mom hugged them and kissed them. She was happy to see them play and share. She took a picture of them and their sand cake. They had a wonderful day at the sandbox.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big tent with a sign that said "Fun House". They wanted to go inside and see what was there.
+
+They paid some coins and entered the tent. It was dark and spooky. They heard strange noises and saw scary things. They saw a skeleton hanging from the ceiling. It had white bones and no skin.
+
+"Hello, kids!" the skeleton said. "Do you want to hear a joke?"
+
+Lily and Max were scared. They did not like the skeleton. They did not want to hear a joke.
+
+"No, thank you!" Lily said. "We want to go out!"
+
+"Too bad!" the skeleton said. "Here is my joke: What do you call a skeleton that likes to dance? A bone-jangles!"
+
+The skeleton laughed and shook its bones. It made a loud rattling sound.
+
+Lily and Max did not think the joke was funny. They thought the joke was silly and bad. They ran to the exit and left the tent.
+
+They were happy to be outside. They saw the sun and the grass and the flowers. They felt safe and calm.
+
+"Let's never go to the Fun House again!" Max said.
+
+"Me too!" Lily said. "The skeleton was not fun. It was creepy!"
+
+They hugged each other and went back to play. They forgot about the skeleton and its joke. They had fun in the park.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and furry. It has a long tail and a wet nose.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Lily says. She wants to pet the dog. She likes animals.
+
+But Tom is scared. He does not like dogs. He thinks they are loud and mean. He hides behind a tree.
+
+"Tom, come here!" Lily says. "The dog is nice. He wants to play with us."
+
+"No, thank you!" Tom says. He does not want to play with the dog. He wants to play with his ball.
+
+Lily is sad. She does not understand why Tom is grumpy. She thinks he is not a good friend.
+
+She speaks to the dog. "Do you want to be my friend?" she asks. The dog wags his tail. He licks her face. He barks.
+
+"Yes, I do!" the dog says. Lily is surprised. She did not know dogs can speak.
+
+The dog has news for Lily. He tells her his name is Max. He tells her he is lost. He tells her he is looking for his home.
+
+Lily feels sorry for Max. She wants to help him. She asks him where he lives.
+
+Max says he lives in a blue house. He says he has a red collar. He says he has a family.
+
+Lily thinks hard. She remembers a blue house near the park. She remembers a red collar on the fence. She remembers a family with a boy and a girl.
+
+"Maybe that is your home!" she says. She takes Max by the paw. She runs to the blue house.
+
+Tom sees them go. He is curious. He follows them. He wants to hear more news. He wants to see if Max can speak. He wants to be a good friend.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who lived near the sea. They liked to play on the sand and swim in the water. One day, their mom told them that a big storm was coming. She said it was called a hurricane and it was very strong and loud. She said they had to pack their things and go to a safe place.
+
+Tom and Sam were scared of the hurricane. They did not want to leave their home and their toys. They did not listen to their mom and they hid under their bed. They thought the hurricane would not find them there. They were wrong.
+
+The hurricane came and it was very strong and loud. It blew the roof off their house and it washed away their toys. It made a lot of water come into their room and it wet their bed. Tom and Sam were very cold and wet and sad. They cried for their mom.
+
+Their mom heard them and she came to help them. She was very worried and angry. She pulled them out of the water and wrapped them in a blanket. She took them to the car and drove them to a safe place. She said they were very lucky to be alive.
+
+Tom and Sam learned a lesson. They learned that they should listen to their mom and do what she says. They learned that hurricanes are very strong and dangerous and they should not play with them. They learned that their mom loves them and wants them to be safe. They said they were sorry and they hugged their mom. They said they would never hide from a hurricane again.
+Anna liked to play in the old barn. She liked to look at the animals and the hay and the tools. But her favorite thing was the cobweb. It was big and white and shiny. It hung from the roof like a pretty dress. Anna wanted to touch it and feel it.
+
+One day, Anna went to the barn with her brother Tom. Tom was older and bigger than Anna. He liked to tease her and make her cry. He saw Anna looking at the cobweb. He had a mean idea.
+
+"Hey, Anna, do you want the cobweb?" he asked. "It's so graceful and soft. I bet you do. But you can't have it. It's mine. I saw it first."
+
+Anna felt sad and angry. She wanted the cobweb. It was not Tom's. It was nobody's. It was just there. She said, "No, Tom, it's not yours. It's not fair. Give it to me."
+
+Tom laughed. He said, "No, Anna, you can't have it. You're too little and silly. You don't know how to take care of it. You'll break it or lose it. I'll keep it safe. Watch me."
+
+Tom reached up and grabbed the cobweb. He pulled it hard and tore it from the roof. He held it in his hand and smiled. He said, "See, Anna, I have it now. It's mine. You can't have it. Ha ha ha."
+
+Anna felt very sad and angry. She saw Tom steal the cobweb. He broke it and ruined it. He was not nice. He was mean. She wanted to cry. But she did not cry. She had a brave idea.
+
+She ran to Tom and kicked him in the leg. He dropped the cobweb and said, "Ow, Anna, that hurts. Why did you do that?"
+
+Anna picked up the cobweb. She said, "Tom, you are mean. You stole the cobweb. You broke it and ruined it. It was not yours. It was not fair. You made me sad and angry. Now I have it. It's mine. You can't have it. Ha ha ha."
+
+Tom felt sad and angry. He saw Anna take the cobweb. He wanted it back. He said, "No, Anna, give it back. It's mine. I saw it first. You're mean. You kicked me and hurt me. It's not fair. You made me sad and angry. Give it back."
+
+Anna said, "No, Tom, I won't give it back. You stole it first. You broke it and ruined it. You're mean. You teased me and made me cry. It's not fair. You made me sad and angry. I'll keep it."
+
+Tom and Anna started to fight. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see the farmer come into the barn. He saw them fighting. He had a stern idea.
+
+"Hey, you two, stop that right now!" he said. "What are you doing? Why are you fighting? What is that in your hands?"
+
+Tom and Anna stopped fighting. They looked at the farmer. They felt scared and ashamed. They said, "We're sorry, sir. We were fighting over the cobweb. We both wanted it. It's so graceful and soft."
+
+The farmer looked at the cobweb. He saw it was broken and dirty. He had a wise idea.
+
+He said, "You two, you're silly. The cobweb is not graceful and soft. It's sticky and dusty. It's not a toy. It's a trap. It's for catching flies and bugs. It's not for you. It's for the spider. The spider made it. The spider needs it. You stole it from the spider. You broke it and ruined it. You were not nice. You were mean. You made the spider sad and angry. You should say sorry to the spider."
+
+Tom and Anna looked at the cobweb. They saw it was sticky and dusty. They saw it was a trap. They saw it was for the spider. They felt sorry and guilty. They said, "We're sorry, sir. We're sorry, spider. We didn't know. We were silly. We won't do it again."
+
+The farmer said, "That's good. Now, put the cobweb back where you found it. Maybe the spider can fix it. Maybe the spider can forgive you. And you two, don't fight anymore. Be nice to each other. Be nice to the animals. Be nice to the barn. Be nice to the cobweb. Be nice to the spider. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Anna said, "Yes, sir. We understand. We'll be nice. We'll be good."
+
+They
+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. But they also made a big mess. Toys were everywhere on the floor, on the couch, on the table. Mom was not happy when she saw the mess.
+
+Mom said, "Lily and Ben, you need to clean up your toys right now. I have to go to the store and I don't want to come back to this mess. Do you understand?" She gave them a fierce look that made them feel scared.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "Yes, Mom." They started to pick up their toys and put them in the toy box. But they did not do it very fast. They still wanted to play. They found a big roll of paper and some tape. They had an idea.
+
+They decided to wrap their toys with the paper and tape. They thought it would be fun to make their toys look like gifts. They wrapped their cars, their dolls, their blocks, their books, and even their teddy bears. They used a lot of paper and tape. They made a bigger mess than before.
+
+Mom came back from the store and saw the mess. She was very angry. She said, "Lily and Ben, what did you do? Why did you wrap your toys with paper and tape? You wasted a lot of paper and tape. You did not clean up your toys. You made more mess. You did not listen to me. You are in big trouble." She gave them a lecture that made them feel sorry.
+
+Lily and Ben said, "We are sorry, Mom. We wanted to make our toys look like gifts. We thought it would be fun. We did not mean to make you angry. We will clean up our mess. We will not do it again." They hugged Mom and said, "We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, Lily and Ben. But you need to learn to follow the rules and respect your things. Wrapping your toys is not a good way to play with them. You can play with them without wrapping them. And you need to clean up your toys when you are done playing. Do you understand?" She gave them a gentle look that made them feel loved.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "Yes, Mom." They unwrapped their toys and put them in the toy box. They also threw away the paper and tape. They helped Mom tidy up the living room. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We will be good from now on."
+
+Mom said, "Thank you, Lily and Ben. I appreciate your help. You are good kids. I am proud of you." She gave them a hug and a kiss. She said, "Now, how about we have some cookies and milk as a treat?" She smiled and said, "But only if you promise not to wrap them with paper and tape."
+
+Lily and Ben laughed and said, "We promise, Mom. We love cookies and milk. And we love you, Mom." They followed Mom to the kitchen and enjoyed their treat. They learned their lesson and had a happy day.
+Anna was nervous. Today was the day of the big test. She had to make a cake for her mom's birthday. She had all the things she needed: flour, eggs, sugar, butter, milk, and a big bowl. She also had a spoon to stir the cake mix.
+
+She put the flour, sugar, and butter in the bowl. She used her hands to make them into crumbs. Then she cracked the eggs and added them to the bowl. She poured some milk and started to stir. She stirred and stirred until the mix was smooth and yellow.
+
+She poured the mix into a cake pan and put it in the oven. She set the timer for 20 minutes. She waited and waited. She hoped the cake would be good. She wanted to make her mom happy.
+
+After 20 minutes, the timer beeped. Anna put on oven mitts and took out the cake. It smelled yummy. It was golden and fluffy. She poked it with a toothpick. It came out clean. That meant the cake was done.
+
+She let the cake cool down. Then she decorated it with frosting and sprinkles. She wrote "Happy Birthday Mom" with a piping bag. She was proud of her cake. She hoped her mom would like it.
+
+She heard the door open. Her mom was home. She ran to the living room with the cake. She said, "Surprise! I made you a cake, Mom!"
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "Thank you, Anna! You are so sweet and clever. This is the best cake ever. I love you!"
+
+Anna was happy. She passed the test. She made her mom happy. She was not nervous anymore. She cut a slice of cake and shared it with her mom. They ate and laughed. It was a good day.
+Tim and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a big pole with a flag on it. The flag had many colors and shapes.
+
+"Look, Mia, a flag!" Tim said. "What is it for?"
+
+"I don't know, Tim. Maybe it is for a party or a game," Mia said. "Do you like it?"
+
+Tim frowned. He did not like the flag. It was different from the flags he knew. He liked flags with stars and stripes, or flags with crosses and circles. He did not like flags with triangles and squares.
+
+"I don't like it, Mia. It is too different. It is not a good flag," Tim said.
+
+Mia did not frown. She liked the flag. It was different, but it was pretty. She liked the colors and the shapes. She thought they were fun and interesting.
+
+"I like it, Tim. It is different, but it is good. It is a pretty flag," Mia said.
+
+They looked at the flag for a while. They did not agree. They did not know what to say.
+
+Then, a man came to the pole. He smiled and waved at them. He had a pin with the same flag on his shirt.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you like my flag?" he asked.
+
+Tim and Mia looked at him. They did not know what to say.
+Lily and Ben went to the museum with their mom. They saw many things, like big bones, shiny rocks, and old paintings. Lily liked the bones best. She wanted to know how much they weigh.
+
+"Mom, can I weigh the bones?" she asked.
+
+"No, Lily, you can't. They are very old and fragile. You can only look at them," mom said.
+
+But Lily did not listen. She saw a scale next to a big bone. She climbed on the scale and tried to lift the bone. It was very heavy. She could not hold it. The bone fell on the floor and broke.
+
+"Oh no!" mom said. "Lily, what did you do?"
+
+Lily was scared. She saw a man in a blue shirt coming. He worked at the museum. He looked angry.
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Lily cried. "I just wanted to weigh the bone."
+
+The man in the blue shirt sighed. He was not happy. He had to fix the bone. He told mom to pay for the damage.
+
+Mom was not happy either. She had to pay a lot of money. She told Lily to say sorry to the man and to the bone.
+
+Lily said sorry to the man and to the bone. She felt bad. She learned her lesson. She did not touch anything else at the museum. She only looked at them.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were lions and roar at each other. They also liked to smell the roses that grew near the fence. The roses were colorful and smelled nice.
+
+One day, they saw a new rose that was bigger and brighter than the others. It was red and yellow and orange. Tom and Lily wanted to smell it, but it was too high for them to reach. They tried to jump and climb, but they could not get to the rose.
+
+"Let's ask Mom to help us," Lily said. "She can pick the rose for us."
+
+"OK," Tom agreed. "But first, let's roar at it. Maybe it will come down."
+
+They both roared as loud as they could at the rose. They hoped it would hear them and fall to the ground. But the rose did not move. It just stayed on the stem, swaying in the wind.
+
+Suddenly, they heard another roar. It was not from them. It was from behind the fence. It was louder and deeper and scarier than their roars. Tom and Lily turned around and saw a big, furry, brown bear. It had climbed over the fence and was looking at them with hungry eyes.
+
+Tom and Lily were very afraid. They ran to the house as fast as they could. They screamed for Mom to help them. Mom heard them and came out. She saw the bear and grabbed a broom. She waved it at the bear and shouted, "Go away, you naughty bear! Leave my children alone!"
+
+The bear was surprised and scared. It did not like the broom or the shouting. It turned around and ran away, back over the fence. Mom hugged Tom and Lily and took them inside. She gave them some cookies and milk and told them they were brave.
+
+Tom and Lily were glad Mom was there. They thanked her and told her they loved her. They also told her about the colorful rose they wanted to smell. Mom smiled and said, "Maybe tomorrow, we can get the rose together. But for now, let's stay away from the fence. And no more roaring, OK?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and agreed. They ate their cookies and drank their milk. They were happy and safe. They did not want to roar anymore. They just wanted to smell the roses.
+Sara and Tom were friends who liked to play on the farm. They liked to feed the chickens, pet the cows and ride the horses. But there was one animal they did not like: the mule. The mule was mean and stubborn. He did not let anyone touch him or ride him. He only made loud noises and kicked the fence.
+
+One day, Sara and Tom decided to try to make friends with the mule. They brought him some carrots and apples and walked slowly to his pen. They said hello to the mule and offered him the treats. But the mule did not want them. He snorted and turned his head away. He did not care about Sara and Tom.
+
+Sara and Tom felt sad and angry. They wanted the mule to like them. They thought he was cool because he had long ears and a striped coat. They tried to talk to him again. They said, "Please, mule, let us pet you and ride you. We will be nice to you and give you more treats. You will have fun with us."
+
+But the mule did not listen. He did not want to have fun. He did not want to be nice. He only wanted to be alone. He said, "No, no, no! Go away, go away, go away! I do not want you or your treats. I do not want to pet or ride. I do not want to be your friend. I am a mule and I do what I want."
+
+Sara and Tom were shocked and hurt. They did not like the mule's words. They did not like his attitude. They did not like his demand. They said, "Fine, mule, be that way. You are not cool. You are rude and selfish. You do not know how to be a friend. We do not want to play with you anymore. We will play with the other animals who are nice and fun."
+
+And they left the mule alone in his pen. They went to the other animals who welcomed them with smiles and noises. They fed them, petted them and rode them. They had a lot of fun. And they forgot about the mule who did not want to be their friend.
+Lily was a shy girl who liked to play with her toys in her room. She had a lot of dolls and animals, but her favorite was a soft bunny. She named him Bean, because he was brown and small like a bean.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said they had to go to the park. Lily did not want to go, because there were many loud kids there. She wanted to stay with Bean. But mom said they had to go, and she could bring Bean with her.
+
+Lily put Bean in her backpack and followed mom to the park. She saw a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. She did not want to play with them. She sat on a bench and took out Bean. She hugged him and whispered, "Don't worry, Bean. We will go home soon."
+
+Then, she saw a boy come near her. He had blond hair and blue eyes. He smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Tom. What's your name?"
+
+Lily felt scared. She did not know what to say. She held Bean tighter and looked down.
+
+Tom saw Bean and said, "What a cute bunny! Can I see him?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not want to share Bean. She liked him too much.
+
+Tom said, "Please, can I hold him for a minute? I won't hurt him. I like bunnies too."
+
+Lily looked at Tom. He seemed nice. He did not look mean or loud. She thought maybe he could be a friend. She nodded and lifted Bean up. She gave him to Tom.
+
+Tom took Bean gently and said, "Thank you. He's very soft and warm. What's his name?"
+
+Lily said, "His name is Bean."
+
+Tom said, "That's a good name. He looks like a bean. My name is Tom. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Yes, I do. My name is Lily."
+
+Tom and Lily became friends. They played with Bean and the other toys in the park. They had fun and laughed. Lily was not shy anymore. She was happy. She still loved Bean, but she also liked Tom. She was glad she came to the park.
+Anna was a young girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had a big dollhouse and many dolls with different clothes and names. She liked to pretend that they were her friends and family, and she made up stories for them.
+
+One day, Anna's doll Lily got hurt. She fell from the dollhouse and broke her arm. Anna was very sad and cried. She did not know how to fix Lily's arm. She hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You are my best doll. I wish you could heal."
+
+Anna's mom heard Anna crying and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lily's broken arm and said, "Oh, Anna, I'm sorry. Lily is hurt. But don't worry, we can fix her. We can glue her arm back and wrap it with a bandage. She will heal soon."
+
+Anna's mom took Lily and some glue and a bandage. She glued Lily's arm and wrapped it gently. She gave Lily back to Anna and said, "There, Lily is better now. She just needs some rest and love. You are a good girl, Anna. You have a kind spirit. You care for your dolls and make them happy."
+
+Anna smiled and thanked her mom. She kissed Lily and said, "I love you, Lily. You are my best doll. You have a brave spirit. You can heal from anything." She put Lily in her bed and sang her a lullaby. She felt happy and proud. She knew that Lily would heal soon and they would play again.
+Anna was shy. She did not like to talk to other kids. She only liked to play with her doll. Her doll was pink and soft. She named her doll Lily.
+
+One day, Anna went to the park with her mom. She saw many kids playing on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. She felt scared. She hugged her doll and stayed close to her mom.
+
+"Anna, do you want to play with the other kids?" her mom asked.
+
+"No, thank you," Anna said. "I want to play with Lily."
+
+"Okay, but maybe you can make some friends too. They look nice," her mom said.
+
+Anna shook her head. She did not want to leave her mom or her doll.
+
+Then, she saw a boy who was also shy. He was sitting on a bench with a book. He did not look at the other kids. He looked lonely.
+
+Anna felt curious. She liked books too. She wondered what he was reading. She walked slowly to the bench. She carried her doll with her.
+
+"Hi," she said softly to the boy.
+
+The boy looked up. He saw Anna and her doll. He smiled a little.
+
+"Hi," he said.
+
+"What are you reading?" Anna asked.
+
+"It's a book about animals. Do you like animals?" the boy asked.
+
+"Yes, I do. I like cats and dogs and rabbits. What about you?" Anna said.
+
+"I like animals too. I like lions and tigers and bears. They are big and strong," the boy said.
+
+Anna nodded. She felt happy. She found someone who liked books and animals like her.
+
+"Do you want to see my doll?" she asked.
+
+"Sure. What's her name?" the boy asked.
+
+"Her name is Lily. She is my best friend," Anna said.
+
+"She is very pretty. Can I hold her?" the boy asked.
+
+Anna nodded. She gave her doll to the boy. He held her gently.
+
+"She is very soft. Can I show you my book?" he asked.
+
+Anna nodded. She took his book. She looked at the pictures.
+
+They started to talk more. They shared their stories and their dreams. They laughed and smiled. They became friends.
+
+Anna's mom watched them from a distance. She felt happy too. She saw that Anna was not shy anymore. She saw that Anna found a friend. She saw that Anna was happy.
+Lila likes to help her mom in the garden. She has a small bucket and a big spoon. She fills the bucket with dirt and spoons it on the flowers. She is careful not to hurt the flowers. She likes how they smell and how they look.
+
+Mom has a big watering can. She fills it with water from the hose. She waters the flowers and the vegetables. She tells Lila to wait until she is done. Lila waits and watches. She sees the water make the dirt wet and the plants happy.
+
+When mom is done, she smiles at Lila. She says, "You did a great job, Lila. You are a big helper. I am proud of you." She gives Lila a hug and a kiss. Lila feels warm and happy. She is proud of herself too. She loves her mom and the garden.
+Tom and Lily liked to play with fire. They had a box of matches that they found in the kitchen. They liked to light the matches and watch them burn. They did not know that fire was very dangerous.
+
+One day, they went outside to play with fire. They saw a big road with many cars. They thought it would be fun to throw matches at the cars. They did not know that cars had gas that could explode.
+
+They waited for a red car to come. They lit a match and threw it at the car. The match hit the car and made a big fire. The fire spread to the gas and made a loud boom. The car blew up and flew in the air. The fire also spread to other cars and the road.
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They tried to run away, but the fire was too fast. The fire caught them and burned them. They screamed and cried, but no one could help them. They wore tight clothes that made the fire hurt more. They fell down and stopped moving.
+
+Tom and Lily were very silly. They played with fire and died. Fire is not a toy. Fire can burn and kill. Tom and Lily learned a hard lesson. The end.
+Tim and Anna are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to Tim's house. Tim has a new toy. It is a guitar. He shows it to Anna.
+
+"Look, Anna, this is my guitar. I can make music with it. Do you want to try?" Tim says.
+
+Anna nods. She likes music. She takes the guitar from Tim. She puts it on her lap. She tries to strum the strings. But they are very tight. She cannot make them sound.
+
+"Ow, Tim, the strings are tight. They hurt my fingers. How do you play?" Anna says.
+
+Tim smiles. He takes the guitar back. He puts it on his shoulder. He loosens the strings a little. He strums them gently. He makes a nice melody.
+
+"See, Anna, you have to be careful with the guitar. You have to tune it first. Then you can play. Like this." Tim says.
+
+Anna listens. She admires Tim. He is good at playing the guitar. She claps her hands.
+
+"Wow, Tim, you are amazing. You make beautiful music. Can you teach me?" Anna says.
+
+Tim nods. He is happy. He likes to share his guitar. He likes to teach Anna.
+
+"Sure, Anna, I can teach you. Come, sit next to me. I will show you how to hold the guitar. And how to strum the strings. And how to make different sounds. It is fun. You will learn soon." Tim says.
+
+Anna sits next to Tim. She holds the guitar. She follows Tim's instructions. She strums the strings. She makes some sounds. She laughs. She enjoys playing the guitar. She thanks Tim.
+
+"Thank you, Tim, for letting me play your guitar. And for teaching me. You are a good friend. And a good musician. I like your guitar. And I like you." Anna says.
+
+Tim hugs Anna. He is glad. He has a good friend. And a good guitar. He likes Anna. And he likes his guitar.
+
+"You are welcome, Anna, for playing my guitar. And for learning. You are a good friend. And a good student. I like your music. And I like you." Tim says.
+
+They smile. They play the guitar together. They make music. They are happy.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the yard. They saw a big turkey walking by the fence. The turkey had brown feathers and a red thing on its head.
+
+"Look, a turkey!" Tim said. "Let's go say hello."
+
+"Okay," Lily said. They ran to the fence and waved at the turkey.
+
+"Hello, turkey!" Tim said. "What are you doing here?"
+
+"Gobble, gobble," the turkey said. It looked at them with its small eyes.
+
+"Can you talk?" Lily asked. "Do you have a name?"
+
+"Gobble, gobble," the turkey said again. It flapped its wings and shook its tail.
+
+Tim and Lily laughed. They thought the turkey was funny and jolly. They wanted to play with it.
+
+"Can we rock you?" Tim asked. He reached out his hand to touch the turkey.
+
+The turkey did not like that. It made a loud noise and pecked at Tim's hand. Tim pulled back his hand and cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim said. "The turkey bit me!"
+
+Lily was scared. She hugged Tim and said, "I'm sorry, Tim. The turkey is not nice. Let's go away."
+
+They ran back to the house and told their mom what happened. Their mom gave them a hug and a band-aid. She said, "The turkey is not a toy. It is a wild animal. You should not bother it. It might hurt you."
+
+Tim and Lily nodded. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with their stuffed animals instead. They rocked them gently and said, "We love you, teddy and bunny. You are nice and soft."
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play in the park. They like to swing, slide and run. But today, Tom is sad. He misses his mom. His mom is at work. She is a nurse. She helps sick people.
+
+"Tom, why are you sad?" Anna asks.
+
+"I miss my mom. She is not here. She is at work. She is a nurse. She helps sick people." Tom says.
+
+"I know. My mom is at work too. She is a teacher. She teaches kids. But she will come back soon. And your mom will come back soon too. They love us. They will hug us and kiss us." Anna says.
+
+"Really?" Tom asks.
+
+"Yes, really. Come on, let's play. Let's swing, slide and run. It will make us happy." Anna says.
+
+"OK, let's play." Tom says.
+
+They go to the swing. They push each other. They go high and low. They laugh. They have fun. But then, Tom makes a mistake. He lets go of the swing. He falls. He lands on the ground. He hurts his knee. He cries. It is terrible.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! My knee, my knee!" Tom cries.
+
+"Oh no, Tom! Are you OK?" Anna asks.
+
+She runs to him. She helps him up. She looks at his knee. It is red and bloody. She feels sorry for him.
+
+"Tom, I'm sorry. You have a boo-boo. It must hurt a lot. Do you want a band-aid?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, please. I want a band-aid. And I want my mom. I want her to kiss my boo-boo. I want her to make it better." Tom says.
+
+"I know, Tom. I know. But your mom is not here. She is at work. She is a nurse. She helps sick people. But she will come back soon. And she will kiss your boo-boo. And she will make it better. I promise." Anna says.
+
+She takes out a band-aid from her pocket. She puts it on Tom's knee. She gives him a hug. She gives him a tip.
+
+"Tom, you know what? When I have a boo-boo, I do something that makes me feel better. I sing a song. A song that I like. A song that makes me happy. Do you want to sing a song with me?" Anna asks.
+
+"OK, Anna. I want to sing a song with you. What song do you want to sing?" Tom asks.
+
+"How about this one? Twinkle, twinkle, little star. Do you know it?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, I know it. I like it. Let's sing it." Tom says.
+
+They sing the song. They sing it loud and clear. They sing it with a smile. They feel better. They forget their sadness. They forget their pain. They are friends. They are happy.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the living room. They had many toys, but they liked to pretend with other things too. Sara found a big vase on the shelf. It was blue and shiny, with flowers on it.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a hat!" Sara said, putting the vase on her head. She walked around, making funny noises.
+
+Ben laughed. He thought Sara was silly. He wanted to join her game. He looked for something to wear. He saw a pillow on the sofa. He grabbed it and put it on his belly.
+
+"Look, Sara, I have a big tummy!" Ben said, waddling towards her. He made silly faces.
+
+Sara and Ben giggled. They had fun with their pretend clothes. They did not hear the door open. Their mom came home from work. She saw them playing with the vase and the pillow.
+
+"Hello, my silly kids!" Mom said, smiling. "I'm happy to see you having fun. But be careful with the vase, please. It's very old and fragile. It was a gift from Grandma."
+
+Sara and Ben looked at Mom. They did not know what fragile meant. But they knew what a gift was. They loved Grandma. They did not want to break her gift.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Sara said, taking the vase off her head. She gave it to Mom. "We were just playing."
+
+"It's okay, sweetie," Mom said, hugging her. "I'm glad you're creative. But let's find some safer things to play with, okay?"
+
+"Okay, Mom," Ben said, taking the pillow off his belly. He gave it to Mom too. "We can play with our toys."
+
+Mom nodded. She put the vase and the pillow back where they belonged. She kissed Sara and Ben. She was proud of them. They were good and smart kids. They always made her happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Lily wants to go on the slide. Ben is afraid of the slide.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's go on the slide. It looks fun!" Lily says.
+
+"No, Lily, the slide is too high. I don't want to go on the slide. It looks scary!" Ben says.
+
+Lily decides to go on the slide by herself. She climbs up the ladder. She sits on the top. She looks down. She feels anxious. The slide is very high. She sees Ben at the bottom. He looks at her with a worried face.
+
+"Lily, are you okay? Do you want to come down?" Ben asks.
+
+Lily does not answer. She does not know what to do. She wants to go on the slide, but she is also afraid. She thinks about Ben. He is her friend. He is also afraid. Maybe they can help each other.
+
+"Lily, I have an idea. Why don't we go on the slide together? I can hold your hand. You can hold mine. We can be brave together. What do you think?" Ben says.
+
+Lily thinks about Ben's idea. She likes it. She smiles. She nods. She holds Ben's hand. Ben holds hers. They slide down together. They laugh. They are happy. They are not afraid anymore. They hug each other.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. You helped me go on the slide. It was fun!" Lily says.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend too. You helped me face my fear. It was not so scary!" Ben says.
+
+They decide to go on the slide again. And again. And again. They have a lot of fun. They are friends. They are brave.
+Lila loved to perform for her family. She liked to sing, dance, and tell jokes. She always made them laugh and clap. She felt happy when she performed.
+
+One day, she found a big cube in her room. It was red and shiny. She wondered what it was. She picked it up and saw that it had buttons and lights. She pressed a button and heard a sound. She pressed another button and saw a picture. She was curious and excited.
+
+She decided to perform with the cube. She ran to the living room and called her family. She said, "Look what I found! I will show you something amazing!" She put the cube on the floor and pressed the buttons. The cube made sounds and pictures. Lila sang and danced along with the cube. She thought she was very clever and funny.
+
+But her family did not laugh or clap. They looked bored and annoyed. They said, "Lila, that cube is not yours. It belongs to your brother. He is working on a project with it. You should not take it without asking. And you should not be so loud and rude. You are disturbing us."
+
+Lila felt sad and ashamed. She realized that she was not clever and funny. She was selfish and rude. She said, "I'm sorry. I did not know. I just wanted to perform for you. I wanted to make you happy." She gave the cube back to her brother and said, "I'm sorry. I did not mean to ruin your project. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Her brother smiled and said, "It's okay. I forgive you. But next time, please ask before you take something. And please be more humble and polite. You don't have to perform all the time. You are already special and loved." He hugged her and said, "Do you want to see how the cube works? I can show you. Maybe we can perform together later."
+
+Lila nodded and smiled. She said, "Yes, please. I want to learn. And I want to perform with you. Thank you for being kind and patient." She hugged him back and said, "I love you, brother. You are the best."
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman!" Sara says. "Do you want to be our friend?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben says in a funny voice, pretending to be the snowman. "But I am very cold. Can you give me a hug?"
+
+Sara and Ben laugh and hug the snowman. They feel his cold snow on their faces and hands. They shiver and giggle.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud roar. They turn around and see a big bear. The bear is hungry and angry. He sees the snowman and thinks it is food. He runs towards it with his wild eyes and sharp teeth.
+
+"Help!" Sara and Ben scream. They let go of the snowman and run away. They are very scared.
+
+The bear reaches the snowman and bites his head. He spits out the hat and the carrot. He does not like the taste. He roars again and looks for more food.
+
+Sara and Ben reach their house and slam the door. They hug each other and cry. They are glad they are safe.
+
+"Mommy, Daddy, there is a bear outside!" they shout. "He ate our snowman!"
+
+Mommy and Daddy come and hug them. They tell them they are brave and they love them. They look outside and see the bear. He is walking away, looking for another snack.
+
+They say they are sorry about the snowman, but they are happy that Sara and Ben are okay. They make them some hot chocolate and cookies. They sit by the fire and warm up. They shiver no more.
+Lily was playing with her toy car when she saw a big box in the corner. She was curious and wanted to see what was inside. She walked over and opened the box. She found a strange machine with a screen and a button. She wondered what it was.
+
+She pressed the button and heard a beep. She saw a picture on the screen. It looked like a bone. She was confused and scared. She ran to her mom and showed her the picture.
+
+"Mom, what is this?" she asked.
+
+Mom looked at the picture and gasped. She recognized the machine. It was an x-ray. It was a tool that doctors used to see inside people and animals. She wondered how it got in the box.
+
+"Lily, where did you find this?" she questioned.
+
+"I found it in the box. What is it?" Lily repeated.
+
+Mom explained that it was an x-ray and that it was not a toy. She said that it was dangerous and that Lily should not touch it. She said that it belonged to her uncle, who was a vet. He must have left it in the box by mistake.
+
+Mom called her uncle and told him what happened. He apologized and said that he would come and get it. He said that he was sorry for the trouble and that he was glad that Lily was not hurt.
+
+He arrived soon and took the x-ray. He thanked Mom and gave Lily a hug. He also gave her a toy dog. He said that it was a gift for being brave and curious. He said that he was proud of her for asking questions and learning new things.
+
+Lily smiled and hugged him back. She liked the toy dog. She named it Rex. She said that he was a mighty dog. She played with him and her toy car. She was happy and forgot about the x-ray. She learned that some things were not for playing and that it was good to ask for help. She also learned that her uncle was a cool vet. She decided that she wanted to be a vet too when she grew up.
+Ben and Lily liked to watch cartoons on Saturday morning. They woke up early and ran to the living room. They turned on the TV and found their favorite show. They laughed and clapped at the funny animals and the silly jokes.
+
+Mom and Dad were still sleeping in their bedroom. They were very tired from working hard all week. They wanted to rest for a while longer. They told Ben and Lily to be quiet and not to bother them.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded, but they did not listen. They turned up the volume and shouted along with the cartoons. They jumped on the couch and threw pillows at each other. They made a lot of noise and mess.
+
+Mom and Dad heard the racket and got angry. They got out of bed and walked to the living room. They saw Ben and Lily having fun, but they did not smile. They scolded them for being loud and naughty.
+
+"Ben and Lily, you are in trouble!" Mom said. "You did not do what we asked you to do. You did not let us sleep. You did not remain quiet. You have to turn off the TV and go to your room. No more cartoons for you today!"
+
+Ben and Lily felt sad and sorry. They knew they had done wrong. They turned off the TV and went to their room. They wished they had listened to Mom and Dad. They learned their lesson. They decided to remain quiet and good from now on.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make things with glue and paper and scissors. Sara made a house for her doll and Ben made a car for his truck. They were happy and proud of their work.
+
+But then, their baby brother Max came crawling into the room. He saw the glue and the paper and the scissors and he wanted to play too. He grabbed the glue and squeezed it hard. The glue came out and spilled all over the floor and the toys. Sara and Ben were angry and sad. They shouted at Max and tried to take the glue away from him.
+
+Max did not understand. He thought they were playing a game. He laughed and crawled away with the glue. He found Sara's doll house and Ben's car and he stuck them together with the glue. He made a big mess and ruined their toys. Sara and Ben cried and ran to their mom.
+
+Mom saw what happened and she was not happy. She scolded Max and took the glue and the scissors away from him. She told him he was naughty and he had to say sorry to Sara and Ben. Max was scared and confused. He did not know why they were mad at him. He started to cry too.
+
+Mom hugged Max and comforted him. She told him he was still a baby and he had to learn to share and be careful. She said she loved him and she would help him clean up the mess. She also hugged Sara and Ben and comforted them. She told them she was sorry their toys were broken and she would help them fix them. She said she loved them and she was proud of their work. She asked them to forgive Max and be kind to him.
+
+Sara and Ben looked at Max and saw he was sorry. They felt sorry for him too. He was their brother and they loved him. They said they forgave him and they hugged him. They decided to play together and make something new with the glue and the paper and the scissors. They asked Mom to join them and she agreed. They had fun and they learned to be nice to each other. They were happy and proud of their work.
+Lily liked to organize her toys. She had a box for dolls, a box for cars, a box for books, and a box for blocks. She liked to put each toy in its right box at the end of the day. She felt happy when her room was neat and tidy.
+
+One day, her cousin Ben came to visit. He was older than Lily by one year. He liked to play with her toys, but he did not like to organize them. He threw them around the room, mixed them up, and made a big mess. Lily asked him to stop, but he did not listen. He said he was having fun, and that organizing was boring.
+
+Lily felt angry and hurt. She wanted to tell her mom, but she was busy in the kitchen. She decided to wait until Ben left, and then she would organize her toys again. She hoped he would not break any of them.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Ben stepped on a block that he had thrown on the floor. He cried out in pain, and fell down. He hurt his foot, and it started to bleed. Lily ran to get her mom, who came to help Ben. She put a band-aid on his foot, and gave him a hug. She also scolded him for being careless and messy.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Ben, even though he had made her angry. She said she was sorry he got hurt, and offered him a doll to play with. Ben said he was sorry too, and thanked her for the doll. He said he would help her organize her toys, and be more careful next time. Lily smiled, and gave him a hug. They both learned a lesson that day.
+Lily liked to design things. She used paper, crayons, scissors and glue to make cards, hats, dolls and more. She had a big box of art stuff in her room.
+
+One day, she wanted to design a surprise for her mom. She took out some paper and drew a picture of her mom and her. She wrote "I love you" with her best letters. Then she cut out some hearts and flowers and glued them on the paper. She made a frame with popsicle sticks and glitter. She was very proud of her design.
+
+She ran to the kitchen to show her mom. But her mom was busy cooking. She said, "Lily, that's very nice, but I can't look at it now. I have to finish the dinner. Can you put it away and help me set the table?"
+
+Lily felt sad. She wanted her mom to see her design. She said, "But mom, I made it for you. It's a surprise. Please look at it."
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I know you worked hard on it. How about this? You help me set the table and then we can look at your design together after dinner. Is that a deal?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "OK, mom. That's a deal. But you have to promise to look at it."
+
+Her mom said, "I promise, Lily. I can't wait to see it. Now, let's go and make the table clean and nice." She took Lily's hand and they went to the dining room.
+
+Lily helped her mom set the table. She put the plates, forks, spoons, napkins and cups in the right places. She was careful not to spill anything. She wanted the table to be clean and pretty.
+
+When they finished, her mom said, "Good job, Lily. You are a great helper. Now, let's go and get your design. I'm ready to see your surprise."
+
+Lily smiled and ran to her room. She grabbed her design and brought it to her mom. She said, "Here, mom. This is for you. I hope you like it."
+
+Her mom looked at the design and gasped. She said, "Oh, Lily. This is beautiful. You are so creative and talented. I love it. And I love you. Thank you for this wonderful surprise."
+
+She hugged Lily and kissed her. She said, "You are the best daughter ever. You made my day."
+
+Lily felt happy. She said, "You're welcome, mom. You are the best mom ever. You kept your promise."
+
+They smiled and hugged again. Then they went to enjoy their dinner. Lily put her design on the wall next to the table. She felt proud and loved.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to pretend they were superheroes and villains. Sara was Wonder Woman and Ben was the Joker. They had fun making noises and jumping around.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud knock on the door. They stopped playing and looked at each other. Who could it be? They heard their mom's voice from the kitchen. "I'll get it, you two stay here," she said.
+
+They heard their mom open the door and talk to someone. They could not hear what they said, but they heard their mom's voice get angry and sad. They heard the other person's voice too. It was a woman. She sounded mean and bossy.
+
+They were curious and scared. They tiptoed to the door and peeked outside. They saw their mom and the woman. The woman had a big bag and a paper in her hand. She was pointing at the paper and yelling at their mom. Their mom was crying and shaking her head.
+
+The woman saw them and glared at them. "Who are these brats?" she asked. "Are they yours?"
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "Yes, they are my children. Please, leave us alone. We have nowhere to go."
+
+The woman laughed and said, "Too bad. This is my house now. The paper says so. You have to go. Now."
+
+She pushed their mom and grabbed the bag. She threw the bag at them and said, "Here, take your stuff and get out. And don't you ever mention my name again. You hear me?"
+
+She slammed the door behind her and locked it. Sara and Ben were shocked and scared. They hugged their mom and cried. They did not understand what was happening. They had lost their home and their toys. They felt miserable. They did not know where to go or what to do. They wished they could go back to playing superheroes and villains. But they could not. The end.
+Lily and Ben like to play with their cart. It is a big cart with four wheels and a handle. They can put toys and books and snacks in it and pull it around the yard.
+
+One day, they see a sign on the fence. The sign has a picture of a dog and some words. Lily and Ben do not know what the words say, but they think the dog is cute. They want to see the dog.
+
+They pull their cart to the fence and look over. They see a big dog in the next yard. The dog is brown and black and has a long tail. The dog sees them and barks. Lily and Ben are scared. They think the dog is angry.
+
+They try to pull their cart away, but it is stuck. The handle is caught on the fence. The dog barks louder and louder. Lily and Ben cry. They want their mom and dad.
+
+Then, they hear a voice. It is the dog's owner. He is a nice man with a hat and a smile. He comes to the fence and says hello. He tells them his dog's name is Spot and he is not angry, he is just excited. He helps them free their cart and gives them a treat. He says they can pet Spot if they want.
+
+Lily and Ben stop crying and smile. They say thank you and pet Spot. Spot licks their hands and wags his tail. They like Spot. They like the nice man. They are happy. They pull their cart back to their yard and wave goodbye. They learn a new word: friend.
+Anna loves to bounce on her big red ball. She bounces up and down, up and down, all over the yard. She feels happy and free when she bounces. She likes to make funny noises and pretend she is a kangaroo.
+
+But today, Anna has a problem. Her brother Max wants to bounce on the ball too. He is bigger and stronger than Anna, and he tries to take the ball from her. He pulls and pushes and shouts, "Give me the ball! It's my turn!" Anna does not want to share. She holds on to the ball and says, "No! It's my ball! Go away!"
+
+They both tug and tug, and the ball slips out of their hands. It rolls away, fast and far, until it hits a sharp rock. The ball pops with a loud bang, and the air comes out. The ball is flat and broken. Anna and Max are shocked and sad. They look at the ball, then at each other, then at the rock.
+
+They both feel frustrated and sorry. They wish they had not fought over the ball. They wish they had played nicely and taken turns. They wish they had a new ball to bounce on. They hug each other and say, "I'm sorry. I love you." They walk back to the house, holding hands, hoping to find another toy to play with.
+Sam and Mia were playing on the beach. They liked to dig in the sand and find shells and stones. Sometimes they saw fish and birds near the water.
+
+"Look, Mia, I found a big shell!" Sam said, holding up a shiny pink shell. "It has a hole in it. Maybe something lives inside."
+
+Mia came closer and looked at the shell. She saw something move in the hole. It was a crab! The crab had claws and eyes and a hard shell. It was not happy to be in Sam's hand.
+
+"Let me see, let me see!" Mia said, reaching for the shell. But the crab did not want to be seen. It pinched Sam's finger with its claw.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Sam cried, dropping the shell. The crab fell on the sand and ran away. It wanted to go back to the water.
+
+"Are you okay, Sam?" Mia asked, hugging her brother. "The crab was mean. It hurt you."
+
+Sam nodded, rubbing his finger. "I'm okay, Mia. The crab was scared. It did not like to be dry. It likes to be wet. We should not take it from its home."
+
+Mia agreed. "You're right, Sam. The crab belongs to the water. We should leave it alone. Let's find something else to play with."
+
+They decided to make a sandcastle instead. They used their buckets and shovels and some shells and stones to decorate it. They had fun on the beach. They did not see the crab again. The crab was happy in the water. It did not want to appear again.
+Lily and Sam were playing with their toy planes in the garden. They liked to pretend they were pilots and fly to different places. Lily had a red plane and Sam had a blue one.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can fly higher than you!" Sam said, making his plane zoom in the air.
+
+"No, you can't, Sam, my plane is faster!" Lily said, chasing him with her plane.
+
+They flew their planes around the trees, the flowers and the fence. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Sam's plane got stuck in a big bush. He tried to pull it out, but it was too hard. He started to cry.
+
+"Lily, help me, please! My plane is in the bush and I can't get it!" Sam called.
+
+Lily heard Sam's call and flew her plane to him. She saw his plane in the bush. It was filthy. It had dirt, leaves and bugs on it.
+
+"Don't cry, Sam, I'll help you!" Lily said. She landed her plane and went to the bush. She reached for Sam's plane and pulled it out. She gave it to Sam.
+
+"Thank you, Lily, you are a good pilot and a good friend!" Sam said, hugging his plane.
+
+"You're welcome, Sam, but your plane is filthy. We need to clean it." Lily said.
+
+"OK, let's go to the hose and wash it." Sam said.
+
+They ran to the hose and washed Sam's plane. They made it shiny and clean again. Then they dried it with a towel.
+
+"Now your plane is ready to fly again, Sam!" Lily said.
+
+"Yay, let's fly some more, Lily!" Sam said.
+
+They picked up their planes and flew them in the garden. They were happy pilots.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play games. They were very competitive and always wanted to win. One day, they played a game of cards with their mom and dad. Tim had a good hand, but Sam had a bad one.
+
+"Mom, can I pray for a better card?" Sam asked.
+
+"Sure, you can pray, but remember that praying is not a magic trick. It is talking to God and thanking him for what you have," Mom said.
+
+Sam nodded and closed his eyes. He prayed very hard for a better card. He opened his eyes and looked at his hand. He saw a new card that was very good. He smiled and gave a wink to Tim.
+
+"Ha, I have a better hand now. I will win this game," Sam said.
+
+Tim was angry and confused. He did not understand how Sam got a new card. He looked at the deck and saw that it was missing a card. He realized that Sam had cheated. He had taken a card from the deck when he pretended to pray.
+
+"Sam, you are a cheater! You did not pray, you stole a card!" Tim shouted.
+
+Mom and Dad heard Tim and looked at Sam. They saw the extra card in his hand. They were very disappointed and angry.
+
+"Sam, how could you do that? That is not fair or honest. You broke the rules and lied to us. You have to give back the card and say sorry to Tim and to God," Dad said.
+
+Sam felt ashamed and scared. He did not want to give back the card or say sorry. He wanted to win the game. He ran away from the table and hid under his bed. He cried and wished he had not cheated.
+
+But it was too late. He had lost the game and the trust of his family. He had made a big mistake and hurt his brother. He had not prayed, he had sinned. He had a bad ending.
+Ben loves to dream. Every night, he closes his eyes and sees amazing things. He dreams of flying, of swimming, of playing with his friends. Sometimes, he dreams of animals he likes, like dogs, cats, and birds.
+
+One night, he dreams of a big, gray elephant. The elephant is very smart. He can talk, and he knows many things. He tells Ben stories about his home in Africa, where he lives with his family and other elephants. He shows Ben how he uses his trunk to drink water, to pick up food, and to spray himself when he is hot.

+"Hello, Ben," the elephant says. "I am happy to meet you. You are very brave to dream of me. Do you want to ride on my back?"
+
+"Yes, please," Ben says. He is not afraid of the elephant. He thinks he is very kind and friendly. He climbs on his back, and the elephant walks slowly and gently. Ben feels the wind in his hair and the sun on his face. He smiles and hugs the elephant's ear.
+
+"Thank you, elephant," Ben says. "You are very nice and fun. I like you a lot. Can I see you again in my dreams?"
+
+"Of course, Ben," the elephant says. "I like you too. You are very curious and sweet. You can dream of me anytime you want. I will always be here for you."
+
+Ben and the elephant keep talking and laughing, until Ben wakes up. He opens his eyes and sees his room. He remembers his dream and feels happy. He hopes to see the elephant again soon. He thinks he is his new best friend.
+Lily had a hurt arm. She fell from the swing and cried a lot. Mom took her to the doctor. The doctor was nice and gave her a sticker. He said they needed to take an x-ray of her arm. Lily did not know what an x-ray was. She was scared.
+
+"What is an x-ray?" Lily asked Mom.
+
+"An x-ray is a special picture that shows your bones," Mom explained. "It helps the doctor see if your arm is broken or not. It does not hurt, I promise."
+
+Lily nodded, but she still felt nervous. She followed Mom and the doctor to a big machine. The doctor put a heavy coat on her and told her to hold still. He pressed a button and the machine made a beep. Lily closed her eyes and waited.
+
+"All done!" the doctor said. "You did great, Lily. Let's see your x-ray."
+
+The doctor showed Lily and Mom a picture on a screen. It looked like a skeleton. Lily saw her arm and a small crack in it.
+
+"Your arm is broken, Lily," the doctor said. "But don't worry, we can fix it. We will put a cast on it and it will heal soon. You can choose the color of your cast and have your friends sign it."
+
+Lily felt sad and brave at the same time. She chose a pink cast and the doctor wrapped it around her arm. It felt tight and hard. The doctor gave her another sticker and a lollipop. He was very generous.
+
+"Thank you, doctor," Lily said.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily," the doctor said. "You are a very brave girl. Take good care of your arm and visit me again in a few weeks."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Mom. She was glad the doctor was nice and the x-ray was not scary. She was ready to go home and show her cast to her friends.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They like to play together. One day, they find a big box in the garage. They want to see what is inside.
+
+"Let's take it upstairs," Tom says. "Maybe it has toys or books or candy."
+
+"OK," Anna says. "But it is very heavy. We need to gain strength."
+
+They try to lift the box, but it is too hard. They push and pull, but it does not move. They are tired and sad.
+
+"Maybe we can ask Mom for help," Anna says.
+
+"No, we can do it by ourselves," Tom says. "We are big kids. We just need to be calm and smart."
+
+He thinks for a moment. Then he has an idea.
+
+"Look, there are wheels on the box," he says. "We can roll it upstairs. It will be easier."
+
+Anna sees the wheels. She smiles.
+
+"Good idea, Tom," she says. "Let's try it."
+
+They tilt the box and make it stand on the wheels. Then they hold the handles and start to roll it. It is still heavy, but it moves. They are happy and proud.
+
+They roll the box upstairs, slowly and carefully. They reach their room and put the box down. They are curious and excited.
+
+"Let's open it and see what is inside," Tom says.
+
+They open the box and find a big surprise. It is full of pillows and blankets and stuffed animals. It is a cozy fort.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing," Anna says. "Mom and Dad made this for us. They are so nice."
+
+"They are the best," Tom says. "Let's go inside and play."
+
+They crawl inside the box and make themselves comfortable. They hug their stuffed animals and tell stories. They are warm and cozy and happy. They have gained a wonderful fort.
+Ben and Mia liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. One day, they saw a big hill with a hole in it. They were curious. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+They went to the hole and looked in. It was dark and deep. They heard a loud noise. It sounded like a roar. They were scared. They wanted to run away. But then, something came out of the hole. It was a giant!
+
+The giant was very big and hairy. He had two horns, four eyes and a long tail. He looked at Ben and Mia. He smiled. He said, "Hello, little ones. Don't be afraid. I am friendly. I live in the hole. I like to play, too. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Ben and Mia were surprised. They did not know what to say. They looked at each other. They decided to be brave. They said, "Hello, giant. We are Ben and Mia. We like to play, too. What do you like to play?"
+
+The giant was happy. He said, "I like to play hide and seek. I can hide very well. Can you find me?" He laughed. He went back to the hole. He said, "I will count to ten. Then you can look for me. Ready, set, go!"
+
+Ben and Mia were excited. They liked to play hide and seek. They ran to find a good spot. They waited for the giant to finish counting. They wondered where he would hide. They hoped they could find him. They had fun playing with the giant. They revealed a new friend.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the garden. One morning, they see a lot of mist in the air. They cannot see the trees or the flowers very well.
+
+"Wow, look at the mist!" Lily says. "It is like a big cloud on the ground."
+
+"Can we touch it?" Ben asks. He runs to the mist and tries to catch it with his hands. But the mist is too thin and wet. He cannot hold it.
+
+"It is cold and wet," Ben says. "It makes my hands wet too."
+
+Lily follows Ben and tries to touch the mist too. She feels the same thing. She laughs and says, "It is funny. It is like water, but not water."
+
+They run and jump in the mist. They pretend they are flying in the sky. They have a lot of fun.
+
+Soon, the sun comes out and the mist goes away. The garden becomes bright and clear again. They can see the trees and the flowers again.
+
+"Look, the mist is gone," Lily says. "The sun made it go away."
+
+"I like the sun," Ben says. "It makes me warm and happy."
+
+They sit on the grass and look at the sky. They see a rainbow in the sky. It has many colors.
+
+"Look, a rainbow!" Lily says. "It is so pretty. It is like a smile in the sky."
+
+"Maybe the mist and the sun made the rainbow," Ben says. "They are friends."
+
+They smile and hug each other. They are grateful for the mist, the sun, and the rainbow. They are grateful for each other. They are happy.
+Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the park. They had a favorite tree, a big oak, where they would climb and swing and hide. They called it their tree and they loved it very much.
+
+One day, they went to the park and saw that their tree was different. It had no leaves, no acorns, no birds. It was brown and dry and sad. Ben and Sam were confused and scared. They ran to their tree and touched it.
+
+"What happened to our tree?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know," Sam said. "Maybe it is sick. Maybe it needs water."
+
+They looked around and saw a man with a big truck and a big saw. He was wearing a hat and a vest and a mask. He looked angry and mean. He saw Ben and Sam and shouted at them.
+
+"Hey, you kids, get away from that tree! It's dead and dangerous. I'm going to cut it down and take it away. Go play somewhere else!"
+
+Ben and Sam were shocked and sad. They did not want to lose their tree. They did not want to go somewhere else. They wanted to help their tree. They wanted to make it better.
+
+They ran to the man and begged him.
+
+"Please, mister, don't cut our tree! It's our tree and we love it. Maybe it can change and grow again. Maybe it just needs some time and care. Please, let us try!"
+
+The man did not listen. He did not care. He pushed Ben and Sam away and started his saw. It was loud and scary. It made sparks and smoke. It cut through the tree like a knife. Ben and Sam cried and screamed. They tried to stop him, but they were too small and weak.
+
+The tree fell with a big crash. It broke and splintered. It hurt Ben and Sam. They were covered in blood and dirt. They did not move. They did not breathe. They were dead.
+
+The man did not notice. He did not care. He loaded the tree on his truck and drove away. He left Ben and Sam behind. He left the park empty and quiet. He left a hole in the ground and in the hearts of everyone who knew them.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a deer in the grass. The deer was brown and had big ears. Lily and Ben wanted to pet the deer.
+
+"Hello, deer," Lily said. "Can we be your friends?"
+
+The deer looked at them and ran away. Lily and Ben were sad. They followed the deer to the trees.
+
+"Please, deer, don't go," Ben said. "We won't hurt you."
+
+The deer stopped and turned around. It saw that Lily and Ben were nice. It walked slowly to them and sniffed their hands. Lily and Ben smiled. They touched the deer's soft fur.
+
+"Thank you, deer, for accepting us," Lily said. "You are very kind."
+
+The deer nodded and licked their faces. Lily and Ben giggled. They hugged the deer.
+
+"We are sorry for scaring you," Ben said. "You are very brave."
+
+The deer wagged its tail. It liked Lily and Ben. They played together until it was time to go home. Lily and Ben waved goodbye to the deer.
+
+"Bye, deer," they said. "We hope to see you again."
+
+The deer watched them leave. It was happy to have new friends. It went back to the grass and ate some flowers.
+Lila and Tom were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them zoom and crash and honk. But then, one of their cars broke. The wheel came off and the car could not move.
+
+"Oh no!" Lila said. "My car is broken. How can I fix it?"
+
+Tom looked at the car and saw the wheel lying on the grass. He had an idea. He ran to the shed and got some glue. He came back and said, "I can repair your car. I have glue. Glue can stick things together."
+
+He put some glue on the wheel and the car and pressed them hard. He waited for a few seconds and then let go. The wheel stayed on the car. "There!" he said. "Your car is repaired. Now you can play again."
+
+Lila was very happy. She thanked Tom and gave him a hug. She picked up her car and tried to make it zoom. But the glue was not dry yet. The wheel came off again and the car stopped.
+
+"Oh no!" Lila said again. "My car is still broken. The glue did not work."
+
+Tom felt sad. He wanted to help Lila. He looked around and saw a big dog. The dog was fierce. It had sharp teeth and a loud bark. It saw the children and their toys and ran towards them.
+
+"Watch out!" Tom shouted. "A fierce dog is coming. We have to run!"
+
+Lila and Tom dropped their cars and ran to the house. They closed the door and locked it. They were safe. But their cars were not. The dog reached the garden and saw the cars. It thought they were bones. It picked them up and chewed them. It broke them into pieces.
+
+Lila and Tom watched from the window. They felt sad and angry. They liked their cars. They wanted to play with them. But now they were gone. The dog had ruined them.
+
+"Bad dog!" Lila said. "You are mean. You took our cars and broke them. You can't repair them. You can't play with them. You can only make them worse."
+
+Tom nodded. He agreed with Lila. He wished the dog would go away. He wished they had new cars. He wished they could play again. But they could not. Not yet. Maybe later. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe.
+Tim and Ben like to play hockey. They have sticks and a ball. They play in the park with their friends. They have fun and run a lot.
+
+One day, a big boy comes to the park. He has a big stick and a big ball. He says he wants to play hockey too. Tim and Ben say okay. They think he is normal.
+
+But the big boy is not normal. He is mean. He hits Tim and Ben with his stick. He takes their ball and throws it away. He laughs and says he is the best hockey player.
+
+Tim and Ben are sad and hurt. They cry and sit on the grass. They want their ball back. They want the big boy to go away. They do not like hockey anymore. They do not have fun.
+Tom had a robot toy that he loved very much. He liked to play with it every day and make it do funny things. He would say "Robot, dance!" and the robot would shake and spin. He would say "Robot, sing!" and the robot would beep and boop. He would say "Robot, hug!" and the robot would open its arms and squeeze him.
+
+One day, Tom's friend Lily came over to play. She saw the robot and wanted to try it. She said "Tom, can I play with your robot?" Tom said "No, it is mine. You can play with something else." Lily said "Please, Tom, just for a little bit. It looks so fun." Tom said "No, it is my robot. I keep it." Lily said "That is not nice, Tom. You should share your toys." Tom said "No, I don't want to share. Go away."
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She said "Fine, Tom, you are a meanie. I don't want to play with you anymore." She ran away and cried. Tom felt bad. He saw that Lily was hurt and he did not like it. He thought about his robot and how much he loved it. But he also thought about his friend and how much he liked her. He realized that he was being selfish and that he should be kind. He picked up his robot and ran after Lily. He said "Lily, wait. I am sorry. I was wrong. You can play with my robot. It is a great toy and I want to share it with you." Lily looked up and smiled. She said "Really, Tom? Thank you. You are a good friend." Tom said "You are welcome. You are a good friend too." They hugged and played with the robot together. They had a lot of fun and laughed a lot. They learned that sharing is caring and that friends are more important than toys.
+Anna and Ben like to play in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. One day, they see a big motor in the park. It is loud and smoky. It makes holes in the ground.
+
+"Wow, look at that motor!" Ben says. "It is so big and strong!"
+
+"I don't like it," Anna says. "It is too loud and smoky. It scares me."
+
+Ben wants to go closer to the motor. He wants to see how it works. He pulls Anna's hand. "Come on, let's go see the motor!" he says.
+
+"No, no, no!" Anna says. "I don't want to go. It is scary. Please, Ben, don't go!"
+
+But Ben does not listen. He runs to the motor. He sees a man sitting on the motor. The man has a helmet and gloves. He pushes buttons and levers. The motor makes more noise and smoke.
+
+"Hello, mister!" Ben says. "What are you doing with the motor?"
+
+The man looks at Ben. He smiles. He stops the motor. He takes off his helmet. He says, "Hello, little boy. I am digging holes for the new fountain. Do you want to see?"
+
+Ben nods. He is curious. He wants to see the holes. The man lifts him up and puts him on the motor. He shows him the holes and the pipes. He tells him how the fountain will work. He says, "The water will come out of the pipes and make a big splash. It will be fun and cool. Do you like fountains?"
+
+Ben nods again. He likes fountains. He thinks they are fun and cool. He says, "Thank you, mister. You have a cool motor. Can I try it?"
+
+The man laughs. He says, "No, no, no. This motor is not for children. It is dangerous. You have to be careful. Only grown-ups can use it."
+
+He puts Ben down and gives him a sticker. He says, "Here, this is for you. It is a picture of the motor. You can stick it on your shirt or your book. You are a brave boy. You are not scared of the motor."
+
+Ben smiles. He takes the sticker. He says, "Thank you, mister. You are nice. I am not scared of the motor. I like the motor."
+
+He runs back to Anna. He shows her the sticker. He says, "Look, Anna, look! I saw the motor. It is not scary. It is cool. It makes holes for the fountain. The mister gave me a sticker. Do you want to see the motor?"
+
+Anna shakes her head. She says, "No, thank you, Ben. I don't want to see the motor. I am still scared of the motor. I don't like the noise and the smoke. I like the slide and the swing. Can we play there?"
+
+Ben nods. He says, "Okay, Anna, okay. We can play there. I like the slide and the swing too. But I also like the motor. Maybe one day you will like it too."
+
+They hold hands and run to the slide and the swing. They play and laugh. They are happy. They are friends. The motor is quiet. The ground is dry. The fountain is not ready yet. But soon it will be. And then they will see the water splash. And maybe Anna will not be scared of the motor anymore.
+Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had a blue dress and long hair. Lily took Anna everywhere. She talked to Anna and hugged her.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and Anna. She saw a big slide and wanted to try it. She left Anna on a bench and ran to the slide. She had fun sliding down and up again. She forgot about Anna.
+
+When it was time to go home, Lily looked for Anna. But Anna was not on the bench. Lily felt sad and scared. She cried and asked her mom where Anna was. Her mom said they had to look for Anna. They asked the other kids and the park keeper, but no one saw Anna.
+
+Lily wished she had a better memory. She wished she remembered where she put Anna. She felt like her heart was empty without Anna. She hoped Anna was not lost or lonely.
+
+Then, she saw a boy holding Anna. He was walking to the exit with his dad. Lily ran to him and said, "That's my doll! That's Anna! Please give her back!" The boy looked surprised and said, "Sorry, I thought she was mine. I have a doll like her at home. Here, you can have her." He handed Anna to Lily.
+
+Lily was so happy. She hugged Anna and thanked the boy. She said sorry for forgetting her. She told her mom she would improve. She would never leave Anna alone again. She would always remember where she put her. She smiled and kissed Anna. She felt her heart was full again.
+Lily and Sam were friends who liked to play with toys. Lily had a blue car that she loved very much. Sam had a red truck that he thought was very cool. One day, they decided to trade their toys for a while.
+
+"Can I have your blue car, Lily?" Sam asked. "It looks so fast and shiny."
+
+"Sure, Sam. You can have my blue car. Can I have your red truck? It looks so big and strong." Lily said.
+
+They traded their toys and played happily for a while. But soon, they missed their own toys.
+
+"Can I have my blue car back, Sam?" Lily asked. "I miss it a lot."
+
+"Can I have my red truck back, Lily?" Sam asked. "I miss it too."
+
+They traded their toys back and hugged each other. They realized that they liked their own toys best, but they also liked to share and try new things.
+
+The moral of the story is: It is good to trade and share with your friends, but it is also good to appreciate what you have.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a white doll that she loved very much. Ben had an enormous truck that he liked to make loud noises with. They were having fun until Ben saw Lily's doll and wanted it.
+
+"Give me your doll!" Ben demanded. He grabbed the doll from Lily's hands and ran away.
+
+"No, Ben, that's mine!" Lily cried. She chased after Ben and tried to get her doll back.
+
+"Mine, mine, mine!" Ben shouted. He held the doll high above his head and laughed.
+
+Lily was very sad and angry. She looked around and saw Ben's truck on the floor. She had an idea. She picked up the truck and threw it at Ben.
+
+"Ow!" Ben yelled. He dropped the doll and rubbed his head. He saw his truck on the ground and his doll in Lily's arms.
+
+"Sorry, Ben, that's mine!" Lily said. She hugged her doll and smiled.
+
+Ben felt sorry too. He realized he was not nice to Lily. He walked over to her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. Can we share?"
+
+Lily nodded. She gave Ben a hug and said, "I'm sorry, too. Sharing is good."
+
+They both smiled and played with their toys together. They learned to be kind and fair to each other.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they got a new toy each: Sara got a doll and Ben got a car. They were very happy and wanted to show their toys to their friends.
+
+They went to the park and met Lily and Tom, who also had toys. Sara and Ben said, "Look at our new toys! They are so nice and fun!" They put their toys on a bench and started to play with them.
+
+Lily and Tom looked at the toys and liked them too. They asked, "Can we play with your toys? They look so cool!" Sara and Ben said, "No, these are our toys. You can't touch them. They are only for us." They were not very nice and did not want to share.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and said, "That's not fair. You should share your toys with your friends. Sharing is caring." They went to another bench and played with their own toys.
+
+Soon, a big dog came to the park and saw the toys on the bench. He thought they were his toys and ran to them. He grabbed the doll and the car with his mouth and ran away. He did not care if they were someone else's toys.
+
+Sara and Ben saw the dog and shouted, "Hey, stop! That's our toys! Give them back!" They ran after the dog, but he was too fast and too strong. They could not catch him. They lost their toys and felt very sad.
+
+Lily and Tom saw what happened and felt sorry for Sara and Ben. They said, "We are sorry that you lost your toys. That was not nice of the dog. Do you want to play with our toys? We can share them with you."
+
+Sara and Ben realized that they were wrong and said, "Thank you, Lily and Tom. You are very kind and graceful. We are sorry that we were not nice and did not share our toys with you. We learned our lesson. Sharing is caring. Can we be friends?"
+
+Lily and Tom smiled and said, "Of course, we can be friends. Come and play with us. We have enough toys for everyone." They gave Sara and Ben their toys and played together. They had a lot of fun and were happy.
+
+The end.
+Ben and Lily liked to play with their old car. It was red and shiny, but it did not work. It was in the garage with a lot of dust and spider webs. Ben and Lily wanted to make the car work again. They wanted to restore the car.
+
+They asked their dad for help. He said he knew how to fix the car. He said they needed some tools and some parts. He said they had to be careful and listen to him. He said they had to learn a lot of things about the car. He said they were ignorant, but they could learn.
+
+Ben and Lily followed their dad to the garage. They helped him to clean the car and to find the tools and the parts. They watched him as he opened the hood and looked inside. He showed them the engine and the battery and the wires. He explained what they did and how they made the car work. He taught them some new words, like spark and fuel and ignition.
+
+Ben and Lily learned a lot from their dad. They asked him many questions and he answered them. They helped him to fix the car and to put everything back. They were happy and proud. They were not ignorant anymore.
+
+They thanked their dad for teaching them. He said he was proud of them too. He said they did a good job. He said they were ready to try the car. He said they had to start the car.
+
+He gave Ben the key and told him to sit in the driver's seat. He told him to put the key in the hole and to turn it. He told him to press the pedal. Ben did what he said. He heard a loud noise and saw some smoke. He was scared and excited. He had started the car.
+
+He looked at Lily and saw her smile. He looked at his dad and saw him clap. He smiled too. He had restored the car.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find a big box in the yard. They want to see what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Ben says. He tries to lift the lid, but it is too heavy.
+
+"Maybe we can push it," Lily says. She puts her hands on the side of the box and pushes hard.
+
+The box does not move. Lily and Ben are sad. They sit on the grass and think.
+
+"Hey, look!" Ben says. He points to a brush on the ground. It is long and has many colors.
+
+"What is it?" Lily asks. She picks up the brush and feels it. It is soft and smooth.
+
+"I think it is a paint brush," Ben says. "Maybe we can use it to make the box interesting."
+
+"How?" Lily asks.
+
+"Like this," Ben says. He dips the brush in a puddle of water and then rubs it on the box. The water makes the box wet and shiny.
+
+"Wow!" Lily says. She likes the idea. She takes the brush from Ben and does the same. They take turns to paint the box with water and make different shapes and patterns.
+
+The box looks very interesting now. It has circles, stars, stripes, and dots. Lily and Ben are happy. They smile and hug each other.
+
+"We did it!" Ben says. "We made the box interesting!"
+
+"Yes, we did!" Lily says. "We support each other!"
+
+They laugh and play with the box. They have fun. They are good friends.
+Lila likes to stand on a chair and look at the books on the shelf. She likes the books with pictures of animals and colors and shapes. One day, she sees a book that is unusual. It is very big and has a shiny cover. She wants to see what is inside.
+
+She reaches for the book, but it is too heavy for her. She pulls and pulls, but the book does not move. She tries to climb on the shelf, but she slips and falls. The chair falls too, and makes a loud noise. Lila starts to cry.
+
+Mommy hears the noise and comes to see what happened. She sees Lila on the floor, and the chair and the book on the shelf. She picks up Lila and hugs her. She says, "Are you okay, sweetie? What were you doing?"
+
+Lila says, "I wanted to see the book, Mommy. It is unusual. What is it?"
+
+Mommy says, "That is a special book, Lila. It is a dictionary. It has many words and their meanings. But it is not for you right now. It is too big and too hard. You can look at it when you are older and can read."
+
+Lila says, "Oh, I see. Can I look at the other books, Mommy?"
+
+Mommy says, "Yes, you can. But you have to be careful. You can't stand on the chair or the shelf. You can ask me to help you, or use a stool. And you have to put the books back when you are done. Okay?"
+
+Lila says, "Okay, Mommy. I'm sorry I made a mess."
+
+Mommy says, "It's okay, Lila. I love you. Let's clean up together and then we can read a book."
+
+Lila says, "I love you too, Mommy. Thank you for helping me."
+
+They hug and smile and start to clean up. Lila learns a new word: dictionary. She thinks it is unusual, but also interesting. She wonders what other words are in it. She decides to read more books and learn more words. She is happy.
+Lily and Max are twins. They like to study animals. They have many books with pictures of animals. Today, they want to study sharks.
+
+They open a big book with a light blue cover. The book has many pages with sharks. Some sharks are big and scary. Some sharks are small and cute. Some sharks have many teeth. Some sharks have no teeth.
+
+Lily and Max point at the pictures and say the names of the sharks. They learn new words. They say "hammerhead", "whale shark", "tiger shark" and "nurse shark". They like the nurse shark best. It looks friendly and soft.
+
+They turn the page and see a picture of a shark with a light on its head. They are surprised and curious. They read the words under the picture. The words say "lantern shark". The lantern shark can make its own light. It uses the light to find food and hide from other sharks.
+
+Lily and Max think the lantern shark is amazing. They want to see a real lantern shark. They ask their mom if they can go to the aquarium. Their mom says yes. She is happy that they like to study sharks. She says they are smart and brave. Lily and Max smile and hug their mom. They are excited to go to the aquarium and see the lantern shark.
+Lily and Max wanted to go to the store with Mom. They liked to see the toys and the books and the candy. But Mom said they had to stay home with Dad. Dad had to give a lecture on his computer. He talked to other people about his work. Lily and Max did not understand his work.
+
+"Can we play with your computer, Dad?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, sweetie, I need it for my lecture. You can play with your own toys or read your own books," Dad said.
+
+"But we are bored, Dad," Max said.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids, but you have to be quiet and let me work. Maybe later we can go to the park or watch a movie," Dad said.
+
+Lily and Max tried to be quiet, but they were not happy. They did not want to play with their old toys or read their old books. They wanted to go to the store with Mom. They wanted to see something new and fun.
+
+They decided to sneak out of the house and go to the store by themselves. They put on their shoes and coats and hats. They took some money from Dad's wallet. They opened the door and ran outside.
+
+They did not see the car that was coming. It was going very fast. It honked its horn and screeched its brakes. Lily and Max were scared. They jumped back to the sidewalk. The car stopped and the driver got out. He was very angry.
+
+"What are you doing, you little brats? You could have been killed! Where are your parents?" he yelled.
+
+Lily and Max started to cry. They did not know what to say. They wished they had stayed home with Dad.
+
+Mom came back from the store. She saw the car and the driver and Lily and Max. She ran to them and hugged them. She was very worried.
+
+"Are you okay, my babies? What happened?" she asked.
+
+The driver told her what happened. He said he was sorry for yelling, but he was scared too. He said they should be more careful and listen to their parents.
+
+Mom thanked him and apologized. She took Lily and Max back to the house. She was very angry.
+
+She gave them a lecture. She said they were very naughty and foolish. She said they could have been hurt or lost or worse. She said they should never go to the store by themselves. She said they should always obey Dad and Mom. She said they were grounded for a week.
+
+Lily and Max felt very bad. They said they were sorry. They said they would never do it again. They said they loved Dad and Mom.
+
+Dad finished his lecture. He came to see Lily and Max. He was very proud. He said his lecture went well. He said the other people liked his work. He said he loved Lily and Max.
+
+He hugged them and kissed them. He said he was sorry he was busy. He said he was glad they were okay. He said he was not angry anymore.
+
+He said they could go to the park or watch a movie. He said they could go to the store another day. He said they could see the toys and the books and the candy.
+
+Lily and Max smiled. They were happy. They said they were proud of Dad. They said they wanted to go to the park. They said they wanted to play with Dad and Mom.
+
+They went to the park. They played and laughed and had fun. They forgot about the store and the car and the lecture. They remembered they were a family. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben went to camp with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the big tent, swim in the lake, and make fire with sticks. They also liked to see the animals that lived in the woods, like the birds, the squirrels, and the deer.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben saw a big bear near their camp. The bear was hungry and smelled their food. He came closer and closer to their tent. Sara and Ben were scared and ran to their mom and dad.
+
+"Mom, dad, there is a big bear!" Sara cried.
+
+"Where?" dad asked.
+
+"Over there, near our tent!" Ben pointed.
+
+Dad grabbed a stick and went to scare the bear away. Mom told Sara and Ben to stay with her and be quiet.
+
+The bear saw dad and growled. He did not want to leave the food. Dad waved the stick and shouted. He tried to make the bear go away.
+
+But the bear was not afraid of dad. He was bigger and stronger than dad. He stood up on his hind legs and roared. He showed his sharp teeth and claws.
+
+Dad was scared too. He backed away slowly. He did not want to fight the bear.
+
+Then, Sara had an idea. She remembered what mom had told her about animals. She said, "Mom, maybe the bear is just hungry. Maybe we can feed him some of our food and he will leave us alone."
+
+Mom thought for a moment. She said, "That might work, Sara. But we have to be careful. We don't want to get too close to the bear. We have to throw the food from a distant place."
+
+Mom took some bread, cheese, and fruit from their bag. She gave some to Sara and Ben. She said, "Let's go to that big rock over there. We can throw the food from there to the bear. Maybe he will eat it and go away."
+
+Sara, Ben, and mom went to the big rock. They threw the food to the bear. The bear saw the food and smelled it. He was curious. He walked to the food and sniffed it. He liked it. He ate it and licked his lips.
+
+The bear was full and happy. He did not want the food in the tent anymore. He turned around and walked away. He went back to the woods.
+
+Sara, Ben, and mom were relieved. They hugged each other and smiled. They went back to dad and told him what they did.
+
+Dad was proud of Sara and Ben. He said, "You were very brave and smart, Sara and Ben. You solved the problem without hurting the bear or ourselves. You showed kindness and respect to the animal. That is a good thing to do."
+
+Sara and Ben learned a lesson that day. They learned that sometimes, the best way to deal with a problem is to feed it, not fight it. They learned that animals have feelings and needs too. They learned to love and care for nature. They were happy campers.
+Sam and Mia loved to go to the big pool with their mom. The big pool had many fish and animals that they could see and learn about. One day, they saw a new animal in the big pool. It was a dolphin. The dolphin was gray and had a big smile. It jumped and splashed in the water.
+
+"Mom, what is that?" Sam asked.
+
+"That is a dolphin, Sam. It is a very smart and friendly animal. It can swim very fast and make sounds to talk to other dolphins," mom said.
+
+"Can we talk to the dolphin, mom?" Mia asked.
+
+"Maybe we can, Mia. Let's go closer and see if the dolphin wants to say hello," mom said.
+
+They walked to the edge of the big pool, where a man was holding a bucket of fish. The man was wearing a blue shirt that said "Trainer". He saw Sam, Mia, and mom and smiled.
+
+"Hello, do you want to meet the dolphin?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Sam and Mia said.
+
+"OK, this is Luna. She is a very special dolphin. She can do many tricks and she loves to play. Do you want to see how much she weighs?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Sam and Mia said again.
+
+"OK, watch this. Luna, come here and show us how much you weigh," he said.
+
+The dolphin swam to the edge of the big pool and lifted her tail out of the water. The man put a big orange scale under her tail and read the number.
+
+"Luna weighs 200 pounds. That is very heavy for a dolphin. She is a big girl," he said.
+
+"Wow, that is heavy!" Sam said.
+
+"Can we feed her, please?" Mia asked.
+
+"Sure, you can feed her. But first, you have to ask her nicely. Say 'Luna, can we feed you, please?'" he said.
+
+Sam and Mia repeated the words and the dolphin nodded her head and made a squeaky sound.
+
+"Good, she said yes. Here, take a fish from the bucket and hold it in your hand. Then, toss it to her mouth and she will catch it," he said.
+
+Sam and Mia took turns feeding the dolphin. The dolphin was happy and thanked them with more sounds and splashes. Sam and Mia were happy too. They had made a new friend in the big pool.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with their toys and watch cartoons. Today was their birthday. They were very happy. They wanted to celebrate with their friends and family.
+
+But there was a problem. Their grandma and grandpa lived very far away. They could not come to their party. Lily and Ben were sad. They missed their grandma and grandpa. They wanted to hug them and show them their new toys.
+
+Their mom saw them crying. She had an idea. She took a telephone and called their grandma and grandpa. She said, "Hello, grandma and grandpa. We have a surprise for you. Lily and Ben want to talk to you. It is their birthday today."
+
+She gave the telephone to Lily and Ben. They heard their grandma and grandpa say, "Happy birthday, Lily and Ben. We love you very much. We are sorry we cannot be with you. But we have a gift for you. We will send it to you soon. Can you guess what it is?"
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They tried to guess. They said, "Is it a book? Is it a ball? Is it a doll? Is it a car?" Their grandma and grandpa laughed. They said, "No, no, no, and no. It is something very special. You will see when you get it. We are very proud of you. You are growing up so fast. You are very smart and kind and brave."
+
+Lily and Ben said, "Thank you, grandma and grandpa. We love you too. We are proud of you. You are very nice and funny and wise." They blew kisses to the telephone. They said, "Bye, bye, grandma and grandpa. See you soon."
+
+Their mom took the telephone and said, "Bye, mom and dad. Thank you for calling. We miss you a lot. Have a good day." She hung up the telephone. She hugged Lily and Ben. She said, "Now, let's go and celebrate. We have a cake and candles and balloons and music and games. Are you ready to have fun?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They wiped their tears. They cheered. They said, "Yes, yes, yes. Let's go and celebrate. It is our birthday. We are happy." They ran to the living room. They joined their friends and family. They had a wonderful party. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben were playing hide and seek in the garden. Sara was the seeker and Ben was the hider. Sara counted to ten and then opened her eyes. She looked around and saw a big bush. She thought Ben might be hiding behind it. She walked quietly to the bush and peeked behind it. But there was no Ben, only a rag. Sara picked up the rag and saw that it was dirty and had holes in it. She threw it away and looked for Ben somewhere else.
+
+Ben was hiding under the porch. He had found a good spot where Sara could not see him. He was very quiet and still. He heard Sara coming closer and closer. He hoped she would not find him. He saw her feet walk past the porch. He smiled and waited for her to go away. But then he smelled something delicious. He looked under the porch and saw a plate of cookies. Someone had left them there for a snack. Ben felt hungry and wanted a cookie. He crawled out from under the porch and reached for the plate.
+
+Sara heard a noise and turned around. She saw Ben coming out from under the porch with a cookie in his hand. She shouted, "I found you, Ben! You are the loser!" Ben dropped the cookie and ran away. Sara chased him and tried to catch him. They ran around the garden and laughed. They forgot about the rag and the cookies. They had fun playing hide and seek.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big rain cloud in the sky. They are sad. They do not want to get wet.
+
+But then, the sun comes out. It shines on the rain. Anna and Ben see something beautiful. It is a rainbow. It has many colors. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. They smile. They like the rainbow.
+
+They want to touch the rainbow. They run to the hill. They raise their arms. They try to reach the rainbow. But it is too far. They cannot touch it. They are disappointed.
+
+Then, they hear a voice. It is their mom. She calls them. She says it is time to go home. She has a surprise for them. They wonder what it is. They run to their mom. She hugs them. She gives them a cookie. It has rainbow sprinkles. They are happy. They thank their mom. They eat the cookie. It is sweet and crunchy. They think it is attractive. They share it with each other. They are good friends. They love the rainbow and the cookie.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their toys. They had a ball, a truck, a doll and a cord. They liked to tie the cord to the truck and pull it around. They also liked to throw the ball and catch it.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can carry the truck and the cord and the ball!" Ben said. He picked up the toys and held them in his arms. He was very strong.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are so strong!" Lily said. "Can I try too?"
+
+"OK, Lily, but be careful. The toys are heavy." Ben said. He gave the toys to Lily.
+
+Lily tried to carry the toys, but they were too heavy for her. She dropped the ball and the cord. The cord got tangled around her legs. She tripped and fell down. She hurt her knee and started to cry.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily cried. "Ben, help me!"
+
+Ben ran to Lily and helped her get up. He untangled the cord from her legs. He saw her knee was bleeding. He felt sorry for her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. Are you OK?" Ben said.
+
+"It hurts, Ben. I want to go home." Lily said.
+
+"OK, Lily. Let's go home. I'll carry the doll for you. You can carry the cord. It's not heavy." Ben said.
+
+He gave the doll to Lily and took the cord. They walked to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. She saw their faces and knew something was wrong.
+
+"What happened, my loves?" Mom said.
+
+"Lily tried to carry too many toys and she fell down. She hurt her knee." Ben said.
+
+"Oh, poor Lily. Let me see your knee. I have a band-aid in my bag." Mom said.
+
+She took out a band-aid and put it on Lily's knee. She hugged Lily and kissed her.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. It feels better." Lily said.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you're OK. And thank you, Ben, for helping your sister. You are a good brother." Mom said.
+
+She hugged Ben and kissed him.
+
+"You're welcome, Mom. I love Lily." Ben said.
+
+"I love you too, Ben." Lily said.
+
+They smiled and hugged each other. Mom smiled and hugged them both.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They learned that they should not try to carry too many things at once. They learned that they should help each other when they are in trouble. They learned that they should love each other and their mom. They were happy.
+Anna liked to play in the park with her mom. She liked to see the flowers, the trees, and the birds. She liked to swing on the swing, slide on the slide, and run on the grass.
+
+One day, she saw a bird that was very attractive. It had a red head, a blue body, and a yellow tail. It had a shiny wing that sparkled in the sun. Anna wanted to touch the bird and make friends with it.
+
+She ran after the bird, but the bird was fast. It flew from one tree to another, and Anna could not catch it. She called to the bird, "Please, bird, come here! I want to play with you!"
+
+The bird heard Anna and looked at her. It saw that Anna was nice and not mean. It decided to give Anna a chance. It flew down to the ground and landed near Anna. It tilted its head and said, "Tweet, tweet!"
+
+Anna was very happy. She smiled and said, "Hello, bird! You are very pretty! What is your name?" She reached out her hand slowly and gently to touch the bird's wing.
+
+The bird liked Anna's hand. It felt warm and soft. It let Anna touch its wing and said, "Tweet, tweet! My name is Ruby. I like you, Anna. You are very kind. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Yes, Ruby, I want to be your friend. You are very smart and fun. Can I play with you?"
+
+Ruby nodded and said, "Yes, Anna, you can play with me. But you have to be careful. I can fly, but you cannot. You have to stay on the ground and not go too far. OK?"
+
+Anna agreed and said, "OK, Ruby, I will be careful. I will not go too far. I will stay on the ground and watch you fly. You can spring from one tree to another and show me your wing. It is very beautiful. I like it very much."
+
+Ruby and Anna played together for a long time. They had a lot of fun. They became good friends. Anna's mom watched them and smiled. She was glad that Anna found a new friend. She thought that Ruby was a very attractive bird. She took a picture of them and said, "Cheese!"
+Tommy loved waffles. He wanted to eat them every morning. But today, his mom said no. She said he had to eat oatmeal and fruit. Tommy was angry. He did not like oatmeal and fruit. He wanted waffles.
+
+He saw a waffle on the counter. It was left from yesterday. It was cold and hard and filthy. There were ants on it. But Tommy did not care. He reached for the waffle. He wanted to lift it and eat it.
+
+"Tommy, no!" his mom shouted. She saw him grab the waffle. She ran to him and took it away. She threw it in the trash. She was mad. She said, "That waffle is bad for you. It is dirty and old. It will make you sick. You have to eat healthy food. That is good for you. It will make you strong and smart."
+
+Tommy cried. He did not understand. He still wanted the waffle. He said, "But I like waffles. They are yummy. I don't like oatmeal and fruit. They are yucky."
+
+His mom hugged him. She said, "I know you like waffles. But you can't eat them all the time. You have to try new things. Sometimes they are yucky at first. But if you eat them more, you will like them. They are good for your body and your teeth and your brain. And you can have waffles sometimes. But not every day. And not filthy ones. OK?"
+
+Tommy nodded. He wiped his tears. He said, "OK, mom. I will try oatmeal and fruit. Maybe they are not so yucky. And maybe I can have a waffle tomorrow. But a clean one. OK?"
+
+His mom smiled. She said, "OK, Tommy. That's a good boy. I love you."
+
+She gave him a bowl of oatmeal and fruit. He took a spoonful. He made a face. But he swallowed it. He took another one. He said, "It's not so bad. It's kind of sweet. And soft. And warm."
+
+His mom said, "See? I told you. You might like it. I'm proud of you. You are a brave boy. You are learning new things. And you are being healthy."
+
+Tommy smiled. He said, "Thank you, mom. I love you too."
+
+He ate his oatmeal and fruit. He felt full and happy. He learned a lesson. He learned that he should not eat filthy food. He learned that he should eat healthy food.

+Lily and Ben love to watch films. They have a big box of films that they can choose from. They like to watch funny films that make them laugh. One day, they want to watch a film about a dog that does silly things. They look for the film in the box, but they cannot find it.
+
+"Where is the dog film?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we lost it," Ben says.
+
+They look everywhere for the film. They look under the sofa, behind the curtains, in the closet. They do not see the film. They feel sad and angry.
+
+"Who took our film?" Lily says.
+
+"Maybe Mom or Dad know," Ben says.
+
+They go to the kitchen, where Mom and Dad are making dinner. They ask them about the film.
+
+"Did you see our dog film?" Lily says.
+
+"Your dog film?" Mom says. "Is that the one with the red cover and the yellow letters?"
+
+"Yes, that's the one!" Ben says.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "We have a surprise for you. Come with us."
+
+Mom and Dad take Lily and Ben to the living room. They see a big screen on the wall. Mom and Dad turn on the screen. They see the dog film. It is bigger and brighter than ever.
+
+"We got a new film player for you," Dad says. "Now you can watch your films on the big screen. Isn't that fun?"
+
+Lily and Ben are very happy. They hug Mom and Dad and thank them. They sit on the couch and watch the dog film. They laugh and clap at the dog's antics. They are very cheerful. They did not lose their film. They got a better way to watch it.
+Anna liked to grow flowers in her garden. She had a big bowl of seeds that she took from her mom. She put some seeds in the dirt and watered them every day. She waited for the flowers to come out.
+
+One day, she saw a little green thing in the dirt. She was happy. She thought it was a flower. She ran to get her mom and show her. But when she came back, she saw a big snake by the green thing. The snake was dangerous. It had sharp teeth and a long tongue. It looked at Anna and hissed.
+
+Anna was scared. She dropped the bowl of seeds and ran away. The bowl broke and the seeds spilled everywhere. The snake ate some of the seeds and slithered away. Anna cried and hugged her mom.

+
+"Mine!" Lily says.
+
+"No, mine!" Max says.
+
+Their parent hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. Their parent is not happy. Their parent says, "You need to share. You have many toys and books. Why don't you choose something else to play with?"
+
+Lily and Max look at their toys and books. They see a lot of things they like. But they still want the puzzle. They don't want to choose something else.
+
+Their parent says, "If you can't choose something else, then I will choose for you. And you won't like it. I will put away all your toys and books. And you will have nothing to play with. Is that what you want?"
+
+Lily and Max shake their heads. They don't want that. They want to play. They look at each other. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Max."
+
+They decide to share the puzzle. They take turns to put the pieces together. They have fun. They make a picture of a farm. They see cows and pigs and chickens. They make animal sounds.
+

+"Let's go on the slide!" Sam says.
+
+"OK!" Tom says.
+
+They run to the slide. They wait for their turn. They see a cop. The cop has a hat and a badge. He is high. He smiles at them.
+
+"Hello, boys," the cop says. "Do you like the slide?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Sam and Tom say.
+

+Tom and Mia liked to play in the park in summer. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. But sometimes they got too competitive. They wanted to be faster, higher, longer and better than each other.
+
+One day, they had a race to the big tree. Tom ran as fast as he could, but Mia was faster. She reached the tree first and shouted, "I win, I win!"
+
+Tom was angry. He did not like to lose. He pushed Mia and she fell down. She started to cry.
+
+"Stop, stop!" a voice said. It was their mom. She had seen what happened. She ran to them and helped Mia up. She looked at Tom and said, "That was not nice, Tom. You hurt Mia. You should say sorry."
+
+Tom felt bad. He knew he was wrong. He looked at Mia and said, "Sorry, Mia. I was silly. I don't want to fight with you. You are my friend."
+
+Mia smiled and said, "It's okay, Tom. I forgive you. You are my friend too. Let's play together."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "That's better. I'm proud of you. Playing is fun, but being kind is more important. Now, how about some ice cream?"
+
+Tom and Mia nodded and said, "Yes, please!"
+
+They held hands and walked with mom to the ice cream truck. They forgot about the race and enjoyed their summer day.
+Lily and Tom are playing with their toy cars in the garden. They like to make them go fast and make loud noises. They pretend they are racing drivers and have fun.
+
+"Look at my car, Lily! It can go reverse!" Tom says, as he makes his car go backwards.
+
+"Wow, that is cool, Tom! Can I try?" Lily asks, holding out her hand.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. It is my favorite car," Tom says, and gives his car to Lily.
+
+Lily takes the car and makes it go forward and reverse. She is happy and smiles. But then, she pushes the car too hard and it hits a rock. The car makes a crack sound and stops moving. Lily looks at the car and sees that it is broken. She feels sad and scared.
+
+"Oh no, Tom! I'm sorry! I broke your car!" Lily says, and starts to cry.
+
+Tom runs to Lily and sees his broken car. He feels angry and sad. He wants to shout at Lily and take his car back. But then, he sees Lily's tears and hears her sorry. He remembers that Lily is his friend and that she did not mean to break his car. He thinks for a moment and then says:
+
+"It's okay, Lily. It was an accident. Don't cry. Maybe we can fix it later. Or we can play with another car. Do you want to play with my blue car? It can go reverse too."
+
+Lily stops crying and looks at Tom. She sees that he is not mad at her and that he is still her friend. She feels happy and grateful. She says:
+
+"Thank you, Tom. You are very nice. I'm sorry for breaking your car. Yes, I want to play with your blue car. It looks fun."
+
+Tom smiles and gives his blue car to Lily. They hug and then play with the blue car. They make it go forward and reverse and have fun. They forget about the broken car and enjoy their friendship.
+Anna and Ben like to play pretend. They have a big box of costumes and toys. Sometimes they pretend to be doctors, or pirates, or astronauts. Today they pretend to be teachers and students.
+
+Anna puts on a pair of glasses and a hat. She holds a book and a ruler. She says, "I am the teacher. You are the student. Sit down and listen to my lecture." Ben nods and sits on a chair. He holds a pencil and a paper.
+
+Anna opens the book and starts to talk. She says, "Today we will learn about animals. Animals are living things that can move and make sounds. Some animals have fur, some have feathers, some have scales. Some animals live on land, some live in water, some live in the air. Can you name some animals?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He says, "A dog is an animal. A bird is an animal. A fish is an animal." Anna smiles and says, "Very good. You are a smart student. Now let me ask you a question. What do animals need to be happy and healthy?"
+
+Ben thinks again. He says, "Animals need food and water and air. They need a home and a family. They need love and care." Anna nods and says, "Very good. You are a kind student. Now let me tell you a story. Once there was a little boy who had a pet rabbit. The boy loved his rabbit very much. He gave him food and water and a cozy cage. He played with him and cuddled him every day. The rabbit was happy and healthy. But one day, the boy had to go to his grandma's house for a week. He asked his friend to take care of his rabbit while he was away. He said, 'Please feed him and give him water and clean his cage. And don't forget to play with him and cuddle him. He will miss me a lot.' The friend said, 'OK, I will.' But he did not. He was too busy playing video games and watching TV. He forgot about the rabbit. He did not feed him or give him water or clean his cage. He did not play with him or cuddle him. The rabbit was sad and lonely and hungry and thirsty and dirty. He got sick and died. When the boy came back, he was very sad and angry. He said to his friend, 'You are a bad friend. You did not take care of my rabbit. You lied to me. You made me lose my best friend.' The friend said, 'I'm sorry. I was wrong. I should have done what you asked me. I should have cared for your rabbit. I should have been a good friend.' The boy said, 'Sorry is not enough. You can't bring back my rabbit. You can't fix what you broke. You can't make me happy again.' He cried and cried and never spoke to his friend again."
+
+Anna closes the book and says, "The end. Did you like the story?" Ben says, "No, I did not. It was a sad story. It made me feel bad. Why did you tell me that story?" Anna says, "I told you that story to teach you a lesson. The lesson is, you should always be a good friend. You should always keep your promises. You should always care for others. You should always do what is right. If you don't, you will hurt yourself and others. You will lose trust and friendship. You will be unhappy and alone. Do you understand?" Ben says, "Yes, I do. I don't want to be like the bad friend. I want to be like the good boy. I want to be a good friend. I want to keep my promises. I want to care for others. I want to do what is right. I want to be happy and have friends." Anna says, "Good. I'm glad you learned the lesson. You are a good student. And you are my good friend. I love you." Ben says, "I love you too. And I love our pretend game. Can we play again?" Anna says, "Yes, we can. But first, let's go and hug our pets. They are our friends too. They need our love and care." Ben says, "OK, let's go. And then we can play again. Maybe we can pretend to be something else. Maybe we can pretend to be superheroes, or chefs, or dancers. What do you think?" Anna says, "I think that sounds fun. Let's go and see what we can find in our big box of costumes and toys. We are always ready for a new adventure." They hold hands and run to their pets. They hug them and say, "We love you. You are our friends. You make us happy."
+Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a rabbit hopping on the grass. They wanted to pet the rabbit, so they ran after it. The rabbit was scared and ran away.
+
+"Come back, rabbit!" Ben yelled. "We just want to be your friends!"
+
+The rabbit ran into a bush. Ben and Mia followed it. They pushed the leaves and branches aside. They saw the rabbit hiding under a log. They reached out their hands to touch it.
+
+But then they smelled something very bad. It was a skunk. The skunk was also hiding under the log. The skunk did not like Ben and Mia. It lifted its tail and sprayed them with a smelly liquid.
+
+"Yuck!" Mia yelled. "The skunk is so smelly!"
+
+Ben and Mia ran out of the bush. They were covered in the skunk's spray. They cried and rubbed their eyes and noses. They wanted to get rid of the smell.
+
+"Mommy! Daddy!" they yelled. "Help us! The skunk made us smelly!"
+
+Their parents heard them and came to the park. They saw Ben and Mia and smelled the skunk. They felt sorry for them and took them home. They gave them a bath and washed their clothes. They told them not to chase rabbits anymore.
+
+Ben and Mia learned their lesson. They said sorry to the rabbit and the skunk. They hoped they would not meet them again. They decided to play with their toys instead.

+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to ride their bikes on the path. Lily has a pink bike and Ben has a blue bike. They both wear helmets to be safe.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can go very fast!" Ben says. He pedals hard and zooms past Lily.
+

+Lily liked to help her dad repair things. He was good at fixing broken toys, bikes, and lamps. He had a big box of tools and wires and nuts and bolts. Lily liked to watch him work and hand him what he needed.
+
+One day, her dad was repairing a copper pot. It had a big hole in the bottom and water leaked out. He used a torch and a metal stick to melt the copper and fill the hole. Lily wanted to see the fire and the shiny metal, but her dad said it was too hot and dangerous. She had to stay back and wait.
+
+Lily felt gloomy. She wanted to help her dad, but she couldn't. She looked around the garage and saw a pile of old books. She picked one up and opened it. It had pictures of animals and words she could read. She smiled and sat down on the floor. She started to read the book aloud.
+
+Her dad heard her voice and looked up. He saw her reading the book and smiled too. He finished repairing the copper pot and turned off the torch. He put the pot on a table and let it cool down. He walked over to Lily and hugged her.
+
+"You are a good helper, Lily," he said. "You are also a good reader. Do you like the book?"
+
+Lily nodded and showed him the book. It was about a lion and a mouse who became friends. She asked her dad to read it with her. He agreed and sat down next to her. They read the book together and laughed at the funny parts. Lily felt happy. She liked to help her dad repair things, but she also liked to read books with him.
+Ben and Tom were two friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big barrel near the road. It was red and shiny and had a hole on the side.
+
+"Let's go inside the barrel and roll down the hill!" Ben said. "It will be fun and fast!"
+
+"I don't know, Ben. That sounds dangerous. Maybe we should ask our moms first," Tom said. He was scared of the barrel and the hill.
+
+"Don't be a baby, Tom. It's just a game. Come on, I recommend you try it. You will like it," Ben said. He pushed Tom into the barrel and climbed in after him.
+
+The barrel started to roll down the hill. It went faster and faster. Ben and Tom screamed and bumped into each other. They could not see or stop the barrel. They were very sorry they did not listen to Tom.
+
+The barrel rolled into the road. A big truck was coming. It could not stop in time. It hit the barrel with a loud crash. The barrel broke into pieces. Ben and Tom were hurt very badly. They wished they had asked their moms first.

+
+One day, they see a little plant in the snow. It is green and has a flower. They wonder how it can grow in the cold. They dig it out and take it to their igloo. They put it in a cup and give it some water. They hope it will be happy.

+Anna likes tuna. She likes to eat tuna with bread and cheese. She likes to share tuna with her cat, Mimi. Mimi likes tuna too. She purrs when Anna gives her tuna.
+
+One day, Anna and Mimi are eating tuna in the kitchen. Anna hears a knock on the door. She goes to see who it is. She sees a man with a red hat and a red bag. He smiles at Anna.

+
+She says to Mimi, "Mimi, did you know that tuna are not like you? They are not cats. They are fish. They live in the water. They do not purr. They do not eat bread and cheese. They eat other fish."
+
+Mimi looks at Anna and meows. She does not understand what Anna is saying. She only wants more tuna. She jumps on the table and tries to get the tuna.
+
+Anna laughs and says, "Mimi, you are silly. You cannot have all the tuna. You have to share with me. Come, let's eat some tuna and read some more."
+
+She picks up Mimi and puts her on her lap. She gives her some tuna and takes some for herself. She opens the book and reads some more. She and Mimi are happy. They like tuna. They like books. They like each other.
+Lily was playing in the park with her ball. She liked to throw the ball high in the air and catch it. She looked up and saw a big, white cloud in the sky. She wondered what it felt like to touch a cloud.
+
+She threw her ball higher and higher, hoping to reach the cloud. But the ball always came back down. She was sad. She wanted to meet the cloud and say hello.
+
+Then she saw something else in the sky. It was a small, pink cloud. It was very pretty and shiny. It looked like a candy. It was coming closer and closer to Lily.
+
+"Hi, little girl," the pink cloud said. "I'm a magic cloud. I can grant you one wish. What do you want?"
+
+Lily was surprised and happy. She had never talked to a cloud before. She thought for a moment. Then she said, "I want to meet the big, white cloud. Can you take me there?"
+
+The pink cloud smiled. "Of course I can. Hold on to me and I'll fly you up. But you have to be back before sunset, or I'll disappear."
+
+Lily nodded. She grabbed the pink cloud and felt it was soft and warm. The pink cloud lifted her up and flew with her to the big, white cloud.
+
+Lily was amazed. The big, white cloud was like a huge pillow. She touched it and felt it was fluffy and cool. She saw other clouds of different shapes and colors. She felt like she was in a dream.
+
+"Hello, big, white cloud," Lily said. "I'm Lily. I wanted to meet you and play with you."
+
+The big, white cloud was friendly. He said, "Hello, Lily. I'm glad you came. You can play with me and my friends. We have a lot of fun here. But be careful not to fall."
+
+Lily thanked the pink cloud and the big, white cloud. She played with them and the other clouds. She had the best time of her life. She felt happy and free. She forgot about everything else. She only remembered when the sun started to go down.
+
+She saw the pink cloud was fading. He said, "Lily, it's time to go back. I have to leave now. I hope you enjoyed your wish."
+
+Lily hugged the pink cloud and said, "Thank you, pink cloud. You are the best. I had so much fun. I'll never forget you."
+
+The pink cloud took her back to the park. He said, "Goodbye, Lily. Maybe we'll meet again someday. Remember to always look at the sky and smile."
+
+Lily waved goodbye to the pink cloud. She saw him disappear in the sunset. She felt sad, but also grateful. She picked up her ball and ran to her mom. She told her everything that happened. Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "That's a wonderful story, Lily. I'm happy for you. You have a big imagination and a big heart."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged her mom. She looked at the sky and saw the stars. She wondered if the pink cloud was there. She whispered, "Goodnight, pink cloud. I love you."
+Anna and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and dress up. One day, they found a big purse in Anna's mom's closet. It was shiny and had many things inside.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Anna said. "It has a necklace, a lipstick, a mirror and a bottle!"
+
+"Can we try them?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, let's pretend we are grown-ups!" Anna said. She put on the necklace and the lipstick. She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. "I look pretty!"
+
+Lily took the bottle and opened it. It had a strong smell and a yellow color. "What is this?" she wondered.
+
+"It's perfume, silly!" Anna said. "You spray it on your neck and you smell nice!"
+
+Lily wanted to smell nice too. She held the bottle close to her neck and pressed the top. But nothing came out. She pressed harder and harder. Then, the bottle broke and the perfume poured out. It poured on Lily's neck, on her dress, on the floor and on the purse.
+
+"Ouch, it hurts!" Lily cried. "It stings my skin and my eyes!"
+
+"Oh no, what have you done?" Anna yelled. "You broke the bottle and you ruined the purse! Mom will be so mad at us!"
+
+Lily was sad and scared. She ran to the bathroom to wash off the perfume. Anna followed her, but she was angry and mean. She did not help Lily or say sorry. She blamed Lily for everything.
+
+They heard Anna's mom coming home. She saw the mess in the closet and the purse. She was very upset. She asked Anna what happened. Anna lied and said that Lily did it all by herself. She said that Lily was a bad friend and a thief.
+
+Anna's mom believed Anna. She called Lily's mom and told her what Anna said. Lily's mom came and took Lily home. She was very disappointed and angry. She did not listen to Lily's side of the story. She said that Lily was not allowed to play with Anna anymore.
+
+Lily was sad and lonely. She lost her best friend and her mom's trust. She wished she never found the purse. She wished Anna was nice and honest. She wished the perfume did not pour. She wished everything was different. But it was too late. The end.
+Tom and Lily liked to play near the river. They saw a big crane that lifted things from a boat. They wanted to see it better, so they walked closer to the water.
+
+"Be careful," said Lily. "The water is deep and fast. Don't go too near."
+
+"I promise," said Tom. "I just want to look at the crane. It is so big and strong."
+
+But Tom did not keep his promise. He went too near the water and slipped on a wet rock. He fell into the river and screamed for help.
+
+Lily ran to get help, but it was too late. The water was too deep and fast. Tom could not swim. He sank under the water and did not come up again.
+
+The crane did not see him. It kept lifting things from the boat. It did not know that Tom was gone.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were a queen and a king. Sara had a crown made of paper and Ben had a cape made of a towel. They sat on a bench and gave orders to the birds and the flowers.
+
+"Queen Sara, you are very fair and kind," Ben said. "You make everyone happy in our land."
+
+"Thank you, King Ben. You are very brave and strong. You protect us from danger and harm," Sara said.
+
+They smiled and hugged each other. They were having a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud roar. A big dog came running towards them. It had sharp teeth and a long tongue. It looked very angry and hungry. It wanted to play, but it did not know how to be gentle.
+
+Sara and Ben were very scared. They dropped their crown and cape and ran away. They cried for help.
+
+"Mommy! Daddy! Help us!" they shouted.
+
+Their parents heard them and came quickly. They saw the dog and shooed it away. They hugged Sara and Ben and comforted them.
+
+"It's okay, sweeties. The dog is gone. You are safe now," they said.
+
+Sara and Ben stopped crying. They felt better. They thanked their parents and picked up their crown and cape.
+
+"Can we still play queen and king?" Sara asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. But be careful of the dog. He might come back," their parents said.
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They went back to the bench and continued their game. They were not scared anymore. They were happy.
+Sam loved hockey. He had a hockey stick and a puck that he played with in the yard. He watched hockey games on TV with his dad and cheered for his favorite team. He wanted to be a hockey star when he grew up.
+
+One day, he saw a flyer for a hockey camp at the park. It said that kids could learn how to skate, shoot, and pass from a real hockey coach. Sam was very excited. He asked his dad if he could go to the hockey camp.
+
+"Sorry, Sam, but we can't afford it right now," his dad said. "Maybe next year, if we save some money."
+
+Sam felt sad and angry. He wanted to go to the hockey camp so badly. He thought it was not fair that other kids could go and he couldn't. He was envious of them.
+
+The next day, he saw his friend Ben walking to the park with his hockey gear. Ben was going to the hockey camp. Sam ran after him and shouted, "Hey, Ben, wait for me!"
+
+"Hi, Sam, are you going to the hockey camp too?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, I can't. My dad said we don't have enough money," Sam said.
+
+"Oh, that's too bad. I'm sorry, Sam. Maybe you can come and watch us play sometimes," Ben said.
+
+Sam felt even more sad and angry. He didn't want to watch. He wanted to play. He said, "No, thanks. I don't want to see you have fun while I have nothing. You're lucky. You have everything. I hate you, Ben!"
+
+Ben looked hurt and surprised. He said, "Sam, why are you being so mean? I thought we were friends. I don't have everything. I have to share my room with my brother. I have to do chores every day. I have to wear glasses. And I don't hate you, Sam. I like you. You're good at hockey. You're funny. You're smart. You're my friend."
+
+Sam felt ashamed. He realized he was being mean and selfish. He remembered all the good times he had with Ben. They played hockey together in the yard. They watched hockey games together on TV. They traded hockey cards and stickers. They helped each other with homework and projects. They were friends.
+
+Sam said, "I'm sorry, Ben. I was wrong. I don't hate you. I like you too. You're my friend. I was just envious of you. I wanted to go to the hockey camp so badly. But I shouldn't have taken it out on you. Can you forgive me, Ben?"
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Of course, I forgive you, Sam. You're my friend. And maybe next year, we can go to the hockey camp together. Or maybe we can find another way to play hockey and have fun. Come on, let's go to the park. Maybe we can join a pick-up game or watch the coach teach some tricks."
+
+Sam smiled and said, "OK, Ben. Let's go. And thanks for being my friend."
+
+Sam learned a lesson that day. He learned that being envious of others is not good. It can make you sad and angry and hurt your friends. He learned that being grateful for what you have and being kind to your friends is better. He learned that hockey is not the only thing that matters. Friendship is more important. He learned to remember that.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to explore the garden. She saw many flowers, bugs and birds. She wanted to touch everything and learn their names. One day, she saw a big, red flower that smelled very sweet. She ran towards it, but she did not see the rock on the ground. She stumbled and fell on her knees. She cried out loud.
+
+"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!" she said.
+
+Her mother heard her and came to see what happened. She saw Lily's knees bleeding and the flower next to her.
+
+"Oh, Lily, are you okay?" she asked. She picked her up and hugged her.
+
+"It hurts, mommy. It hurts!" Lily said.
+
+"I know, sweetie. Let me clean your wounds and put a band-aid on them. Then you will feel better," her mother said. She carried her to the house and did what she said.
+
+"Mommy, what is that flower?" Lily asked, pointing at the red one.
+
+"That is a rose, Lily. It is a very beautiful flower, but it has thorns. Thorns are sharp and can hurt you if you touch them. You have to be careful around roses," her mother explained.
+
+"Thorns? What are thorns?" Lily asked.
+
+"Thorns are like little needles that grow on some plants. They protect the plants from animals that want to eat them. But they can also hurt people who are ignorant and do not know about them," her mother said.
+
+"Ignorant? What is ignorant?" Lily asked.
+
+"Ignorant means you do not know something. You were ignorant about the rose and its thorns, because you had never seen them before. But now you know, and you can avoid them next time," her mother said.
+
+"I see. I do not want to be ignorant, mommy. I want to know everything," Lily said.
+
+"That is good, Lily. You can learn many things by asking questions and listening to the answers. But you also have to be careful and respectful of the things you do not know. Sometimes they can be dangerous or harmful. Do you understand?" her mother said.
+
+"Yes, mommy. I understand. Thank you for helping me and teaching me. I love you," Lily said.
+
+"I love you too, Lily. You are my smart and brave girl," her mother said. She kissed her and smiled.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park and look at the sky. They wondered what was beyond the clouds and the stars. They wanted to see the world.
+
+One day, they found a big map in the library. It had many colors and shapes and names. They pointed at the map and tried to read the words.
+
+"What is this?" Lily asked, touching a blue part.
+
+"That is water. It is called the sea. There are many seas in the world," Ben said.
+
+"And what is this?" Ben asked, touching a green part.
+
