She went outside and watched the light items in the air get moved about by the powerful wind. + +The hurricane was so strong that it started to blow the roofing off of the houses.

"The name of this animal is cat," he said. + +"Very good, Ben. You are kind. You passed your test. You are a great student," Sara said. + +"Thank you, teacher. You are a great teacher. You are thoughtful. You make learning fun," Ben said. + +Sara and Ben hugged and smiled. They were happy. They liked to play school. They liked to learn new things. They liked to be friends. +Sara and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park every day. They have a lot of fun with the swings, the slide and the sandbox. + +One day, they see some big kids playing with toy guns and making loud noises. They are pretending to have a war. Sara and Ben are scared. They do not like war. War is bad and scary. + +They run to the bench where Sara's mom is sitting. They tell her what they saw. Sara's mom hugs them and says, "Don't worry, my loves. Those are just silly games. They are not real. War is not real here. We are safe and happy." + +Sara and Ben feel better. They hope that war never comes to their park. They hope that all the kids can play nicely and share. They hope that everyone can be friends. + +They go back to the park and play with their ball. They see the big kids again. They wave and smile at them. The big kids stop playing with their toy guns and join them. They all play together and have fun. Sara and Ben are happy. They have made new friends. +Anna liked to play with her toys on the shelf. She had dolls, cars, blocks and books. She liked to make stories with them and talk to them. Sometimes she pretended they were her friends. + +One day, she saw something shiny on the shelf. It was a star. It was yellow and sparkly. Anna wanted to play with it. She reached for it, but it was too high. She tried to jump, but she could not reach it. She tried to climb, but she fell down. She was sad. + +She asked her mom for help. "Mom, can you get the star for me? It is shiny and pretty. I want to play with it." + +Her mom looked at the shelf. She saw the star. It was a sticker. Someone had put it on the shelf. Her mom smiled. She said, "That is not a toy, Anna. That is a sticker. It is not for playing. It is for decorating. You have many toys on the shelf. Why don't you play with them?" + +Anna looked at her toys. She liked them, but she still wanted the star. She was persistent. She said, "But I like the star, mom. It is shiny and pretty. Please, can I have it?" + +Her mom sighed. She said, "Okay, Anna. You can have the star. But you have to be careful. It is sticky. It can make a mess. And you have to share it with your toys. They might like it too." + +Anna was happy. She said, "Thank you, mom. I will be careful. I will share it with my toys. They will like it too." She hugged her mom. Her mom lifted her up and gave her the star. Anna stuck it on her hand. It shone in the light. She showed it to her toys. They smiled. Anna smiled. She made a new story with the star and her toys. She had fun. +Tim and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with cars and balls. One day, their mom said, "It is time for lunch. Come and eat, boys." She made them sandwiches and juice. + +Tim and Sam did not want to stop playing. They said, "No, mom. We are not hungry. We want to play more." Their mom said, "You have to eat, boys. Lunch is good for you. If you do not eat, you will be hungry and sad later." + +Tim and Sam did not listen to their mom. They ran away to their room. They locked the door. They played with their cars and balls. They made a lot of noise. They threw their toys everywhere. They made a big mess. + +Their mom knocked on the door. She said, "Boys, open the door. You have to eat your lunch. It is getting cold. Do not be crazy. Be good boys." Tim and Sam did not open the door. They said, "No, mom. We do not want to eat. We want to play. Go away, mom." + +Their mom was angry and sad. She said, "Fine. If you do not want to eat, you will not get any dessert. You will not get any cookies or ice cream. You will stay in your room until you complete your lunch. You will not play with your toys. You will not watch TV. You will not have any fun." + +Tim and Sam did not care. They said, "We do not need dessert. We do not need TV. We have our cars and balls. We have fun. We do not need you, mom." + +Their mom left them alone. She went to the kitchen. She ate her lunch. She ate their cookies and ice cream. She watched TV. She had fun. + +Tim and Sam played in their room. They got hungry and thirsty. They looked at their sandwiches and juice. They were cold and dry. They did not look good. They wanted to eat them. But they could not open the door. They locked it and lost the key. They could not get out. They could not call their mom. They could not have any fun. + +They cried and cried. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We are hungry and sad. We want to eat our lunch. We want to have dessert. We want to watch TV. We want to have fun. We want you, mom." + +But their mom did not hear them. She was in the kitchen. She was having fun. She did not care. She was angry and sad. She did not want to see them. She did not want to talk to them. She did not want to be their mom. +Lily and Tom are hungry. They want to eat some food. They see a big bowl of yellow fruit on the table. The fruit looks yummy and sweet. + +"Can we have some fruit, Mom?" Lily asks. + +"Yes, you can, but be careful. The bowl is high and heavy. You need to ask for help," Mom says. + +Lily and Tom nod. They want to be good and safe. They wait for Mom to come and give them some fruit. + +But Tom is very hungry. He does not want to wait. He sees a chair near the table. He has an idea. He climbs on the chair and leans over the table. He tries to reach the bowl of fruit. + +"Tom, no! That's dangerous!" Lily shouts. + +But it is too late. Tom leans too far and the bowl falls. The fruit rolls on the floor. The bowl breaks into pieces. Tom falls off the chair and hurts his arm. + +Mom hears the noise and runs to the kitchen. She sees the mess and Tom crying. + +"Oh, Tom, what did you do?" Mom says. She is angry and worried. She picks up Tom and hugs him. She checks his arm. It is not bad, but it is red and sore. + +"I'm sorry, Mom. I was hungry. I wanted some fruit," Tom says. + +"I know, Tom, but you should have waited for me. You could have hurt yourself more. And you wasted the fruit and broke the bowl. That was not nice," Mom says. + +"I'm sorry, Mom. I won't do it again," Tom says. + +Mom sighs. She is not happy, but she loves Tom. She kisses his arm and gives him a band-aid. She gives him and Lily some fruit from the floor. She tells them to eat and be careful. + +Lily and Tom eat the fruit. They say thank you to Mom. They are sorry for the mess. They learn to be patient and ask for help. They do not lean over the table anymore. +Lily and Ben were very happy when they saw a big box in front of their door. It was from their grandma, who lived far away. They ran to the box and asked their mom if they could open it. + +"Sure, but be careful. It might have something fragile inside," mom said. + +Lily and Ben lifted the lid and saw many things wrapped in paper. They started to unpack them one by one. They found books, toys, clothes, and candy. They thanked grandma in their minds and smiled. + +But then, they saw something that made them stop. It was a big envelope with a red stamp. It had their names on it. + +"What is this?" Lily asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe it's a card from grandma," Ben said. + +They opened the envelope and pulled out a piece of paper. It had a picture of a scary face on it. It had big eyes, a long nose, and sharp teeth. It also had a message that said: "BOO! I got you!" + +Lily and Ben screamed and dropped the paper. They ran to their mom and hugged her. + +"Mom, mom, there's a scary face in the envelope!" Lily cried. + +"Who sent us this?" Ben asked. + +Mom looked at the envelope and the paper. She laughed and said: "Oh, this is just a joke from grandma. She likes to make funny faces and scare people. She's not mean, she's just playful. She wanted to surprise you and make you laugh." + +Lily and Ben looked at each other. They felt silly and relieved. They picked up the paper and looked at the scary face again. They saw that it was not so scary after all. It was just a drawing with crayons. They laughed and said: "Grandma, you're so funny. We love you!" +Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play outside with chalk. They draw big pictures on the sidewalk. They draw flowers, stars, and animals. + +One day, they see something unusual on the sidewalk. It is a big circle with many colors. It looks like a rainbow. Lily and Sam are curious. They want to see the circle closer. + +They rush to the circle. They see a small door in the middle of the circle. The door has a sign. The sign says "Magic Land". Lily and Sam are excited. They want to go to Magic Land. + +They knock on the door. The door opens. A voice says "Hello, children. Do you want to come in?" Lily and Sam nod. They hold hands and walk through the door. + +They enter a bright and beautiful world. They see trees, flowers, and animals. They see fairies, elves, and unicorns. They see a big castle. They hear music and laughter. They feel happy and amazed. + +They play and explore in Magic Land. They make new friends. They have fun. They forget about the time. They forget about the chalk. They forget about the sidewalk. They only remember the magic. +Anna and Ben are playing with blocks. They want to build a big house with a roof. They put many blocks on top of each other, but the roof keeps falling down. + +"Please, help me, Ben!" Anna says. "How can we make the roof stay?" + +Ben thinks hard. He has an idea. He finds a big piece of cardboard and cuts it into a triangle. He puts the triangle on top of the blocks. The roof does not fall down anymore. + +"Wow, Ben, you are so smart!" Anna says. "You made a successful roof!" + +They are very happy. They pretend to live in the house. They invite their teddy bears and dolls to join them. They have a lot of fun. +Lily and Tom were playing with their dolls in the garden. They liked to make up stories and act them out. Lily was the princess and Tom was the knight. They had a castle made of cardboard and a dragon made of paper. + +One day, a big dog came into the garden. He saw the dragon and thought it was a toy. He ran towards it and grabbed it with his teeth. He shook it and tore it to pieces. Lily and Tom were very sad. They loved their dragon. + +They shouted at the dog and tried to chase him away. But the dog was not scared. He thought they wanted to play. He wagged his tail and licked their faces. He jumped on them and knocked them down. + +Lily was angry. She slapped the dog on his nose. She hoped he would go away. But the dog was surprised. He felt a shock on his nose. He did not like it. He growled and bared his teeth. He looked very mean. + +Tom was scared. He knew the dog was not harmless. He could hurt them. He grabbed Lily's hand and pulled her away. He ran to the house and called for their mom. Their mom came out and saw the dog. She shouted at him and threw a stick. The dog ran away. + +Lily and Tom hugged their mom. They were glad she was there. They told her what happened. She said they were brave, but they should not slap dogs. She said dogs can be friendly, but they can also be dangerous. She said they should always be careful around animals they don't know. She said she would make them a new dragon. Lily and Tom smiled. They said they loved her. They went inside and had some cookies. +Lily loved her cat, Fluffy. Fluffy was soft and warm and liked to cuddle with Lily. One day, Fluffy got sick. He did not eat or play or purr. Lily was very sad and worried. + +Lily's mom said, "We need to take Fluffy to the veterinarian. The veterinarian is a person who helps animals feel better. He will check Fluffy and give him medicine." + +Lily nodded and hugged Fluffy. She put him in a basket and went with her mom to the car. They drove to the veterinarian's office. There were many other animals there. Some were big, some were small, some were loud, some were quiet. + +Lily and her mom waited for their turn. Then a nice lady called their name and took them to a room. The lady was the veterinarian. She smiled and said, "Hello, Lily. Hello, Fluffy. What's wrong with Fluffy today?" + +Lily said, "Fluffy is sick. He does not eat or play or purr. I love Fluffy. Please make him better." + +The veterinarian said, "I will try my best, Lily. Don't worry. I need to check Fluffy's ears, eyes, nose, mouth, and fur. Can you show me how to hold Fluffy gently and still?" + +Lily said, "Yes, I can." She showed the veterinarian how to hold Fluffy in her arms. She stroked his soft fur and whispered, "It's okay, Fluffy. The veterinarian will help you." + +The veterinarian checked Fluffy and said, "Fluffy has a fever and a sore throat. He needs some medicine and some rest. I will give him a shot and some pills. The shot will make him feel a little pinch, but it will help him get better. The pills will make his throat less sore. You need to give him one pill every day for a week. Can you do that, Lily?" + +Lily said, "Yes, I can. I will give Fluffy his medicine and take good care of him. Thank you, veterinarian." + +The veterinarian said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are a very good and brave cat owner. Fluffy is lucky to have you. I hope he feels better soon." + +Lily and her mom thanked the veterinarian and paid for the visit. They took Fluffy home and gave him his medicine and some water. They made him a cozy bed and let him sleep. Lily stayed with Fluffy and sang him a lullaby. She hoped he would eat and play and purr again soon. + +The moral of the story is: When your pet is sick, you should take him to the veterinarian and follow his advice. You should also be kind and gentle to your pet and show him your love. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their dog, Spot. Spot is a big, brown dog. He can run very fast and catch a ball. + +One day, Sara and Ben go to the park with Spot and their mom. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide. They rush to the slide and take turns. Sara goes first. She sits on the slide and slides down. She laughs and says, "Whee!" Ben goes next. He sits on the slide and slides down. He smiles and says, "Wow!" + +But Spot does not like the slide. He thinks the slide is scary. He barks and runs away. He sees a pond. He likes the pond. He jumps into the pond and splashes. He sees a duck. He chases the duck. The duck is not happy. The duck quacks and flies away. + +Sara and Ben see Spot in the pond. They call him. They say, "Spot, come back! Spot, come here!" But Spot does not listen. He is having fun in the pond. He sees a strip of cloth. He thinks it is a toy. He grabs the strip of cloth and pulls. He does not know that the strip of cloth is mom's scarf. Mom is not happy. She says, "Spot, drop that! Spot, no!" + +Sara and Ben run to mom. They say, "Sorry, mom. Sorry, mom." They help mom get her scarf back. They dry her scarf with a towel. They hug mom and say, "We love you, mom. We love you, mom." Mom is happy. She says, "I love you, too. I love you, too." She hugs Sara and Ben and Spot. They all go home. They are happy. +One day, Ben and Lily went to the park with their mom. They liked to play on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They also liked to run around and chase each other. + +"Tag, you're it!" Lily shouted as she touched Ben's back. Ben ran after her, trying to catch her. He was very fast and almost reached her. But then he tripped on a rock and fell down. He landed on his face and tasted the ground. It was dirty and yucky. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben cried. He felt pain in his nose and mouth. He also felt embarrassed. He saw some other kids looking at him and laughing. He wanted to hide. + +"Ben, are you okay?" Lily asked. She ran to him and helped him get up. She saw some blood on his lip. She felt sorry for him. + +"I'm sorry, Ben. I didn't mean to make you fall. Are you hurt?" she said. + +Ben wiped his mouth with his sleeve. He nodded. He was hurt and sad. He wanted to go home. + +"Mom, mom, can we go home?" he asked. + +Mom heard Ben's voice and came to see what happened. She saw his face and hugged him. + +"Of course, sweetie. Let's go home. You had a bad fall. I'll clean your wound and give you a band-aid. And maybe some ice cream, too. How does that sound?" she said. + +Ben smiled a little. He liked ice cream. He also liked his mom and his sister. They were nice to him. He felt a bit better. + +"Okay, mom. Thank you. And thank you, Lily. You're a good sister," he said. + +Lily smiled, too. She was glad Ben was not angry with her. She gave him a kiss on his cheek. + +"You're welcome, Ben. You're a good brother. I love you," she said. + +They held hands and walked to the car with mom. They went home and had ice cream. Ben's wound healed soon. He learned to be more careful when he ran. He also learned that the ground tasted bad. He never wanted to taste it again. +Tim liked to create things with his toys. He made cars, houses, robots and animals. He was very proud of his creations and showed them to his mom and dad. They said he was very clever and gave him hugs and kisses. + +One day, Tim went to the park with his mom and dad. He brought some of his toys with him. He wanted to create something new and fun. He found a nice spot under a tree and started to build. He used blocks, sticks, leaves and stones. He made a big person with a funny face and a hat. + +But then, a rude boy came and saw Tim's creation. He did not like it. He said it was ugly and stupid. He kicked it and broke it. He laughed and ran away. Tim was very sad and angry. He cried and shouted. His mom and dad came and hugged him. They said they were sorry and that the rude boy was wrong. + +Tim wanted to get back at the rude boy. He saw him playing with a ball near the slide. He ran to him and grabbed his ball. He threw it far away. He said it was boring and dumb. He laughed and ran away. The rude boy was very sad and angry. He cried and shouted. His mom and dad came and hugged him. They said they were sorry and that Tim was wrong. + +But then, Tim felt bad. He realized he was rude too. He hurt the rude boy's feelings. He did not make things better. He made things worse. He wished he did not do that. He wanted to say sorry. He looked for the rude boy and his ball. But he could not find them. They had left the park. Tim was very sorry and sad. He learned a hard lesson. He learned that being rude is not nice. He learned that creating is better than destroying. He learned that saying sorry is better than hurting. He hoped he would see the rude boy again and be friends. He hoped he would create something nice for him. He hoped he would be kind and happy. +Anna liked to ride her bike. She had a red bike with two wheels and a pedal. She rode her bike every day in the park. She was fast and strong. + +One day, she saw a boy with a blue bike. He had four wheels and no pedal. He pushed his bike with his feet. He was slow and lazy. + +"Hello, I am Anna. Do you want to race with me?" she asked the boy. + +"No, I don't. I like to ride my bike like this. It is easy and fun," he said. + +"But that is not riding. That is pushing. You need a pedal to ride. You are not a real bike rider. You are a baby," she said. + +The boy felt sad and angry. He did not like Anna. He thought she was mean and rude. + +"Go away. I don't want to play with you. You are not a real friend. You are a bully," he said. + +Anna felt sorry and ashamed. She did not mean to hurt the boy. She thought she was better than him. She realized she was wrong. + +"I am sorry. I was not nice to you. You can ride your bike however you want. It does not matter how many wheels or pedals you have. You are a real bike rider. You are not a baby. You are a friend," she said. + +The boy smiled and forgave her. He liked Anna. He thought she was brave and kind. + +"Thank you. I was not fair to you. You can ride your bike however you want. It does not matter how fast or strong you are. You are a real bike rider. You are not a bully. You are a friend," he said. + +They decided to ride their bikes together. They had fun and learned from each other.

She looked at Lily's paper and said, "Wow, Lily, you are very fast at math. You got all the answers right. Well done!" + +Lily felt happy and proud. She thanked the teacher and looked at Tom.

You are very fast at driving them. You always win the races." + +Tom looked at Lily and smiled. He said, "OK, Lily, that sounds fun. Thank you for being my friend. You are very nice." + +Lily and Tom went to play together at recess. They had fun with cars and trucks. They did not mention math anymore. They were both happy. +Tim liked to play with his toy trumpet. He liked to make loud noises and pretend he was in a band. He liked to soar around the room with his trumpet and make music. + +But his sister Kim did not like his trumpet. She liked to read books and draw pictures. She did not like loud noises and music. She liked to be quiet and normal. + +One day, Tim was playing with his trumpet in the living room. He was soaring and making music. He was having fun. But Kim was reading a book in the same room. She was not having fun. She was annoyed. + +She said to Tim, "Stop playing with your trumpet! You are too loud and silly! You are not normal! You are bothering me!" + +Tim said to Kim, "No, I will not stop playing with my trumpet! I like to be loud and silly! I like to soar and make music! You are too quiet and boring! You are not fun!" + +They started to argue and fight. They both wanted the other to change. They both wanted to have their own way. + +Their mom heard them and came to the living room. She saw them fighting and said, "Stop fighting, both of you! You are both normal and special in your own way. You both have different things you like to do. You both need to respect and share with each other. You both need to be kind and gentle with each other." + +She gave them both a hug and said, "Why don't you try to play together? Maybe you can teach each other something new. Maybe you can find something you both enjoy. Maybe you can make each other happy." + +Tim and Kim looked at each other and felt sorry.

They both found something they both enjoyed. They both made each other happy. They both soared and smiled. +Sam and Mia liked to read novels. Novels were books with many words and stories. They had many novels in their room. They liked to read them before bed. + +One day, Sam and Mia found a new novel in the library. It was big and colorful. It had a picture of a dragon on the cover. They wanted to read it. They took it home and put it on their shelf. + +That night, they sneaked out of bed and took the novel. They went to the living room and turned on the lamp. They opened the novel and started to read. + +The novel was about a dragon who lived in a cave. He was lonely and bored. He wanted to have friends and fun. He decided to fly out of the cave and look for a lively place. He saw a town with many lights and people. He thought it was lively. He flew down and breathed fire on the town. He burned the houses and the cars and the trees. He laughed and roared. He thought he was having fun. + +Sam and Mia were scared. They did not like the dragon. They did not like what he did. They wanted him to stop. They wanted the people to be safe. They closed the novel and hugged each other. + +"Sam, this is a bad novel. The dragon is bad. He hurts people. He does not know how to have fun. He does not have friends. He is not lively. He is mean," Mia said. + +"You are right, Mia. This is a bad novel. We should not read it. We should read good novels. Good novels have good stories. They teach us good things. They make us happy and smart. They are lively in a good way," Sam said. + +They put the novel back on the shelf. They turned off the lamp. They went back to bed. They decided to return the novel to the library the next day. They learned that burning things is not fun. It is dangerous and wrong. They learned that being lively means being kind and helpful and curious. They learned that reading good novels is better than reading bad novels. They fell asleep and dreamed of good novels. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play at school. Today, they have a new game. They use crayons to draw on the desk. They make many colors and shapes. They have fun. + +But then, the teacher comes. She sees the desk. She is not happy. She says, "Who did this? This is not good. You have to clean the desk now." + +Lily and Ben are scared. They say, "Sorry, teacher. We did not know. We just wanted to play." + +The teacher says, "You have to be careful. The desk is not for drawing. It is for writing and reading. You have to wipe the desk with a cloth. And you have to say sorry to the desk, too." + +Lily and Ben nod. They take a cloth and wipe the desk. They say, "Sorry, desk. We will not draw on you again." + +The teacher smiles. She says, "That's good. You are good children. You learned your lesson. Now, you can go and play with your toys. But remember, no more drawing on the desk." + +Lily and Ben say, "Thank you, teacher. We will remember." They run to the toy box. They are happy. They think they are lucky. The teacher was nice. The desk was clean. And they still have time to play. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big pile of wood near the trees. They wanted to build a fort with the wood. + +"Let's take some wood and make a fort!" Lily said. + +"OK, but we have to be careful. The wood belongs to someone else." Ben said. + +They took some wood and started to make a fort. But then they heard a loud voice. + +"Hey, what are you doing with my wood?" It was Mr. Jones, the carpenter. He was angry. + +Lily and Ben were scared. They dropped the wood and ran away. + +"Sorry, Mr. Jones!" they shouted. + +Mr. Jones shook his head. He picked up the wood and put it back in his pile. + +Lily and Ben felt bad. They knew they did something wrong. They decided to go back and say sorry to Mr. Jones. + +They walked slowly to the pile of wood. They saw Mr. Jones working on a bench. + +"Excuse me, Mr. Jones. We are sorry for taking your wood. We wanted to make a fort, but we didn't ask you." Lily said. + +"Yeah, we are sorry. We won't do it again." Ben said. + +Mr. Jones looked at them. He saw that they were sincere. He smiled. + +"It's OK, kids. I appreciate your honesty. You know, wood is very valuable. It takes a lot of work to cut it and shape it. You can't just take it without permission." He said. + +"We understand, Mr. Jones. Can we help you with your work?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, if you want. You can help me sand this bench. It will make it smooth and shiny." He said. + +Lily and Ben nodded. They took some sandpaper and started to sand the bench. They worked hard and had fun. They learned how to use wood to make something beautiful. + +Mr. Jones was happy. He thanked them for their help. He gave them some cookies and juice. He also gave them some small pieces of wood to take home. + +"You can use these to make your own fort. But remember, always be careful with wood. And always ask before you take something that is not yours." He said. + +Lily and Ben thanked him. They hugged him and said goodbye. They walked home with their wood. They felt calm and proud. They learned a lesson. They gained a friend. +Tom was a boy who liked to play with his toys. He had many toys, but he wanted more. He saw his friends in class had new toys that he did not have. He felt sad and angry. + +One day, he had an idea. He decided to take some toys from his friends when they were not looking. He thought he was very clever and no one would notice. He put the toys in his bag and went home. + +At home, he opened his bag and saw all the toys he had taken. He felt happy and proud. He started to play with them, but soon he got bored. He realized the toys were not as fun as he thought. He also felt guilty and scared. He wondered what would happen if his friends found out. He wished he had not taken the toys. + +The next day, he went back to class with the toys in his bag. He wanted to give them back, but he did not know how. He was afraid his friends would be angry and his teacher would be disappointed. He did not know what to do. + +Suddenly, a fairy appeared in front of him. She had a kind smile and a shiny dress. She said, "Tom, I know what you did. You took the toys from your friends, and that was wrong. You should not take things that are not yours. You should be honest and kind. How do you feel now?" + +Tom felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "I feel bad. I was greedy and selfish. I did not think about how my friends would feel. I want to give the toys back, but I am afraid." + +The fairy said, "Don't be afraid. It is never too late to do the right thing. If you give the toys back and say sorry, your friends will forgive you and your teacher will be proud of you. You will feel better and happier. Trust me, I am your fairy godmother. I am here to help you." + +Tom felt hopeful and brave. He said, "Thank you, fairy godmother. You are very kind and wise. I will do as you say. I will give the toys back and say sorry. I will be honest and kind from now on." + +The fairy smiled and said, "You are welcome, Tom. I am glad you learned your lesson. Remember, happiness is not in having more things, but in being a good person. Now, go and make things right." + +The fairy disappeared, and Tom did as she said. He gave the toys back and said sorry to his friends. His friends were surprised and happy. They hugged him and said, "It's okay, Tom. We are still your friends. We are glad you told the truth. We forgive you." + +His teacher also heard what he did. She praised him and said, "Tom, you did a very brave and noble thing. You admitted your mistake and corrected it. You showed honesty and kindness. You are a good boy. I am proud of you." + +Tom felt relieved and happy. He thanked his fairy godmother in his heart. He learned his lesson. He realized that happiness is not in having more things, but in being a good person. He decided to be honest and kind from then on. He played with his friends and his toys, and he was happy. +Lily did not like vegetables. She liked candy and cake and ice cream. But her mom said she had to eat vegetables every day. She said vegetables were good for her and made her strong and healthy. + +One day, Lily had a plan. She saw a big pumpkin in the garden. She thought it was a vegetable. She thought it was heavy. She thought she could change it into something else. She took a knife and a spoon and a bowl. She went to the garden and cut the pumpkin. She scooped out the seeds and the pulp. She put them in the bowl. + +She ran to the kitchen and hid the bowl under the table. She waited for her mom to come home. She wanted to surprise her mom with her new vegetable. She thought her mom would be happy and let her have candy and cake and ice cream. + +But her mom was not happy. She saw the pumpkin in the garden. She saw the knife and the spoon and the bowl. She saw the seeds and the pulp under the table. She was angry and sad. She said to Lily, "What did you do? You wasted a good pumpkin. You made a mess. You did not change it into a vegetable. You changed it into garbage." + +Lily was sorry. She did not want to make her mom angry and sad. She did not want to waste a good pumpkin. She did not want to make a mess. She said to her mom, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to change the pumpkin into something else. I wanted to make you happy. I wanted to eat something else." + +Her mom hugged her and said, "I love you, Lily. But you can't change vegetables into something else. You have to eat them as they are. They are good for you and make you strong and healthy. And sometimes they can be tasty too. Why don't we make some pumpkin pie together? It's a sweet treat that has pumpkin in it. Would you like that?" + +Lily nodded and smiled. She liked pumpkin pie. She liked her mom. She said, "Yes, mom. I would like that. Can I help you make it?" + +Her mom said, "Of course, you can. You can help me mix the ingredients and roll the dough and fill the pie. But first, we have to clean up this mess." + +Lily said, "OK, mom. I will help you clean up. And then I will eat some pumpkin pie. And maybe some vegetables too." +Ben was a horse who lived on a farm. He liked to run and play with his friends, but he also liked to eat hay. Hay was his favorite food. He liked it more than carrots or apples or grass. + +One day, Ben saw a big pile of hay in the barn. It looked very attractive to him. He wanted to eat it all by himself. He did not want to share with his friends. He ran to the barn and started to munch on the hay. + +But then, he heard a loud moo. It was Molly, the cow. Molly also liked hay. She saw Ben eating the hay and she was angry. She said, "That hay is not yours. That hay is mine. You have to share with me and the other cows. You are being greedy and selfish." + +Ben did not like Molly. He did not like to share. He said, "No, this hay is mine. I found it first. You have to go away. You are being rude and mean." + +Molly and Ben started to argue. They pushed and shoved each other. They made a lot of noise. They did not notice that the farmer was coming. + +The farmer saw Molly and Ben fighting over the hay. He was not happy. He said, "Stop that, Molly and Ben. You are both being naughty and silly. That hay does not belong to either of you. That hay belongs to the sheep. They need it to keep warm and cozy. You have your own hay in your own stalls. You have to share and be nice to each other and to the sheep." + +Molly and Ben felt ashamed. They realized that they were wrong. They said, "We are sorry, farmer. We are sorry, sheep. We will not fight over the hay anymore. We will share and be nice to each other and to the sheep." + +The farmer smiled. He said, "That's good, Molly and Ben. You are both good animals. Now, go back to your stalls and eat your own hay. And maybe later, you can play with your friends and have some fun." + +Molly and Ben nodded. They went back to their stalls and ate their own hay. They felt better. They learned a lesson. They learned that hay is not the most important thing in the world. They learned that sharing and being nice are more important. They learned that they all belong on the farm. +Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, they see a big box on the street. It has a message on it. The message says: "Do not open. This is for Mr. Bald." + +Tim and Sam are curious. They want to see what is in the box. They think Mr. Bald is a funny name. They do not know who he is. They decide to open the box. They steal it from the street. + +They take the box to a park. They find a quiet spot. They open the box. Inside, they see a lot of shiny things. They see rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. They are all made of gold and silver. They sparkle in the sun. + +"Wow!" Tim says. "These are pretty. Let's keep them. We can play with them." + +"No!" Sam says. "These are not ours. They belong to Mr. Bald. We should not steal them. We should put them back in the box and return them to the street." + +Tim and Sam start to argue. They both want different things. They do not listen to each other. They raise their voices. They pull the box and the shiny things. + +Suddenly, they hear a loud voice behind them. It is Mr. Bald. He is angry. He has a big head and no hair. He has a red face and a scary look. He has followed them to the park. He has seen them steal his box. + +"Hey!" Mr. Bald shouts. "What are you doing with my box? Give it back to me. You are bad boys. You have stolen my things. These are not toys. These are jewels. They are very valuable. They are mine." + +Tim and Sam are scared. They drop the box and the shiny things. They run away. They do not look back. They do not say sorry. They have learned a lesson. They have learned that stealing is wrong. They have learned that they should not be curious about things that are not theirs. They have learned that they should respect other people's property. They have learned that Mr. Bald is not a funny name. He is a serious man. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They found a toy pistol on the ground. It was black and shiny and made a loud noise when they pressed the button. + +"Let me have it!" Ben said. He grabbed the pistol from Lily's hand. + +"No, it's mine!" Lily said. She tried to get it back. + +They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see the big dog that was running towards them. The dog was angry and wanted to bite them. + +"Help!" Lily and Ben cried. They were scared of the dog. + +A man came and saw the children and the dog. He had a real pistol in his belt. He took it out and pointed it at the dog. + +"Stop!" he said. "Go away!" + +The dog did not listen. It barked and jumped at the man. The man fired his pistol. The dog fell down and did not move. + +Lily and Ben were shocked. They dropped the toy pistol and ran to the man. + +"Are you okay?" they asked. + +"Yes, I'm okay," the man said. "But the dog is not. He was not harmless. He was dangerous. He could have hurt you." + +He looked at the toy pistol on the ground. He picked it up and gave it to Lily. + +"Here, you can have this," he said. "It is harmless. It is only a toy. But be careful with it. Do not point it at anyone. And do not fight over it. It is better to share and play nicely." + +Lily and Ben nodded. They said sorry to the man and to each other. They hugged and thanked the man. They decided to play with the toy pistol together. They pretended to be cowboys and cowgirls. They had fun and forgot about the dog. +Ben loves trucks. He has many trucks in his room. He plays with them every day. He makes them go vroom, vroom, and beep, beep. He likes to pretend he is a truck driver. + +One day, he sees a big truck outside his window. It is green and rusty. It has a lot of trash in the back. It smells bad. Ben thinks it is a garbage truck. He is very enthusiastic. He wants to see it up close. + +He runs to his mom and says, "Mom, mom, can I go see the truck? Please, please, please!" + +Mom looks at the truck and says, "No, Ben, you can't. That truck is not a garbage truck. It is a rot truck. It carries things that are rotten and sick. They are not good for you. You have to stay away from it." + +Ben is sad and confused. He says, "But why, mom? Why is it a rot truck? What are rotten and sick things?" + +Mom says, "Rotten and sick things are things that are old and broken. They have germs and bugs. They make you feel bad. They are not fun to play with. You have to be careful, Ben. You have to play with your own trucks. They are clean and nice. They make you happy." + +Ben nods and says, "Okay, mom. I understand. I will play with my own trucks. Thank you, mom." + +Mom smiles and says, "You're welcome, Ben. I love you." + +Ben hugs mom and says, "I love you too, mom." + +He goes back to his room and plays with his trucks. He forgets about the rot truck. He is happy. +Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big box of blocks. They could build anything they wanted with the blocks: houses, cars, castles, animals, and more. + +One day, their mom said, "Lily and Tom, it is time to clean up your room. Put your blocks back in the box and put the box in the closet." Lily and Tom did not want to stop playing. They said, "No, mom, we want to play more. Please, mom, just a little more." + +Mom said, "No, you have played enough. You need to clean up your room now. If you don't, you will be naughty and you will not get a story before bed." Lily and Tom did not like that. They loved stories, especially stories about history. History was when things happened a long time ago, like when there were kings and queens, and pirates and dinosaurs, and cowboys and Indians. + +Lily and Tom looked at each other. They did not want to be naughty and miss a story. They said, "Okay, mom, we will clean up our room. But can you tell us a story about history after we do?" Mom smiled and said, "Yes, I can. But you have to hurry up and do a good job." + +Lily and Tom nodded and started to put their blocks back in the box. They reminded each other to not leave any blocks on the floor or under the bed. They wanted to make their mom happy and hear a story about history. They wondered what story mom would tell them. Maybe a story about a brave knight, or a clever princess, or a funny monkey. They finished cleaning up their room and ran to mom. They said, "Mom, we are done. Can you tell us a story now?" Mom hugged them and said, "Yes, I can. Come, let's go to the couch and I will tell you a story about history." Lily and Tom were happy and followed mom. They could not wait to hear the story. +Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play with toys, but they do not like to share. One day, they find a big switch in the garage. The switch can make lights go on and off. + +"Wow, look at this!" Ben says. He pushes the switch up and down. The lights flicker. + +"Let me try!" Lily says. She grabs the switch from Ben. + +"No, it is mine!" Ben says. He pulls the switch back. + +They start to fight over the switch. They tug and shout and cry. + +Mom hears the noise and comes to the garage. She sees Ben and Lily fighting over the switch. + +"Stop it, you two!" Mom says. "Why are you fighting over a switch? It is just a switch. It is not a toy." + +"But it is fun!" Ben says. + +"And it is easy!" Lily says. + +Mom shakes her head. She takes the switch from them. + +"Fun and easy are not good reasons to fight. You should share and be nice to each other. Do you want to make each other sad?" + +Ben and Lily look at each other. They feel sorry. + +"No, Mom. We do not want to make each other sad. We love each other." Ben says. + +"We do not hate each other. We are sorry, Mom." Lily says. + +Mom smiles. She hugs them. + +"That is good. I love you both. Now, why don't you play with something else? Something that you can share and enjoy together." + +Ben and Lily nod. They say sorry to each other. They put the switch away. They go to find another toy. They play happily. They do not fight anymore. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play at the beach. They see a big seal in the water. The seal is gray and shiny. It has a ball on its nose. + +"Look, a seal!" Lily says. "It is so cute!" + +"Can we play with it?" Ben asks. + +They run to the water. The seal sees them and swims closer. It tosses the ball in the air and catches it again. Lily and Ben clap their hands and laugh. + +"Hello, seal!" Lily says. "Do you want to be our friend?" + +The seal nods and makes a loud sound. It sounds like "arf, arf, arf". Lily and Ben think it is funny. + +"Are you celebrating something?" Ben asks. + +The seal nods again and points to the ball. It has a number on it. It is the seal's birthday. + +"Wow, happy birthday, seal!" Lily says. "We can celebrate with you!" + +They find some shells and seaweed and make a necklace for the seal. They put it around its neck. The seal likes it and wags its tail. It gives them each a kiss on the cheek. + +They play with the ball and the seal for a long time. The sun is bright and the sky is clear. They have a lot of fun. + +Lily and Ben are happy. They have a new friend. The seal is happy too. It has a special day. They celebrate together. +Tom and Lily were hungry. They wanted a snack. They went to the kitchen and looked for something to eat. + +"Can we have some cookies, Mom?" Tom asked. + +"No, cookies are not good for you. You need to eat something healthy," Mom said. + +She gave them two sticks of celery. Tom and Lily made a face. They did not like celery. + +"Please, Mom, can we have something else?" Lily begged. + +"Celery is fine. It is crunchy and green and good for your teeth. Try it, you might like it," Mom said. + +She smiled and left the kitchen. + +Tom and Lily looked at the celery. They did not want to eat it. They wanted something sweet and yummy. + +"Let's trade," Tom whispered. "Maybe someone else will want our celery." + +They took their celery and went outside. They saw their friend Ben playing with his ball. + +"Hi, Ben. Do you want some celery?" Tom asked. + +Ben looked at the celery. He liked celery. He thought it was tasty and fun to dip in peanut butter. + +"Sure, I want some celery. What do you want for it?" Ben asked. + +Tom and Lily thought for a moment. They saw Ben's ball. It was big and red and bouncy. + +"We want your ball," Lily said. + +Ben thought for a moment. He liked his ball. He had fun playing with it. But he was also hungry. And he really liked celery. + +"OK, deal. You can have my ball. I can have your celery," Ben said. + +They traded. Tom and Lily were happy. They had a ball. They could play with it and have fun. Ben was happy. He had celery. He could eat it and enjoy it. + +They all smiled and thanked each other. They were good friends. They shared what they had. And they learned that different things can be fine for different people. +Anna and Ben are friends who live on a farm. They like to play in the fields of wheat, where the wind makes the plants wave like the sea. They also like to make bread with their moms, using the wheat they pick. + +One day, they decide to have a race in the wheat field. They run as fast as they can, but Ben trips and falls. He hurts his knee and starts to cry. Anna hears him and stops. She runs back to help him. + +"Are you okay, Ben?" she asks, holding his hand. + +"It hurts, Anna. I can't run anymore." he says, sobbing. + +"I'm sorry, Ben. Here, let me see." she says, gently lifting his pants. She sees a small cut and some blood. She takes a smooth cloth from her pocket and wraps it around his knee. "This will make it better." she says, smiling. + +"Thank you, Anna. You are very kind." he says, feeling better. + +They hug and walk back to their moms, who are waiting for them with fresh bread and jam. + +"Did you have fun, kids?" Anna's mom asks. + +"Yes, mom. We had a race, but Ben fell and hurt his knee. Anna helped me and gave me a cloth." Ben says, showing his bandage. + +"That was very nice of you, Anna. You are a good friend." Ben's mom says, praising her. + +They all sit down and enjoy the bread and jam, sharing stories and laughs. + +The moral of the story is: Be a good friend and help others when they are in need. +Lisa has a bird named Blue. Blue likes to sing and fly in his birdcage. Lisa loves Blue very much. She gives him seeds and water every day. + +One day, Lisa's mom says, "Lisa, it is time to clean Blue's birdcage. It is very dirty and smelly. Blue needs a clean home." + +Lisa says, "But mom, I am tired. I want to play with my toys. Can I clean it later?" + +Lisa's mom says, "No, Lisa. You have to clean it now. If you are lazy, Blue will be sad and sick. Cleaning is part of taking care of your pet. Do you want Blue to be happy and healthy?" + +Lisa says, "Yes, mom. I want Blue to be happy and healthy. I will clean his birdcage. I am sorry for being lazy." + +Lisa gets a sponge and a bucket of water. She takes Blue out of his birdcage and puts him on a perch. She says, "Don't worry, Blue. I will be quick. You can sing while I clean." + +Lisa scrubs the birdcage with the sponge. She rinses it with the water. She dries it with a towel. She puts fresh seeds and water in the birdcage. She says, "There, Blue. Your birdcage is clean and shiny. Do you like it?" + +Blue chirps and flaps his wings. He flies back into his birdcage. He says, "Thank you, Lisa. You are a good friend. I like my clean home. You are not lazy. You are kind and smart." + +Lisa smiles and hugs Blue. She says, "You are welcome, Blue. You are a good friend too. I like your songs. You are not sad. You are happy and healthy." + +Lisa's mom says, "Well done, Lisa. I am proud of you. You did a good job. You are a responsible pet owner. How about we have some cookies and milk as a reward?" + +Lisa says, "Yes, please, mom. That sounds yummy. Can I share some with Blue?" + +Lisa's mom says, "Of course, Lisa. You can share some with Blue. He deserves a treat too." + +Lisa and Blue enjoy their cookies and milk. They are happy and full. They love each other very much. The end. +Tom and Sue were best friends. They liked to play in the park and share their toys. But one day, they had a big fight. Tom wanted to play with Sue's new ball, but Sue said no. She said it was her ball and she did not want to share. Tom got angry and said Sue was mean. He ran away and did not talk to Sue. + +Sue felt sad and lonely. She missed Tom and wished they could be friends again. She decided to buy him a lollipop from the store. She thought Tom would like a lollipop and forgive her. She used her pocket money and picked a red lollipop, Tom's favorite color. + +Tom was also sad and lonely. He missed Sue and wished they could play together. He decided to say sorry to Sue and give her a hug. He thought Sue would like a hug and be nice to him. He ran to the park and looked for Sue. + +He saw Sue sitting on a bench, holding a lollipop. He felt happy and ran to her. He said, "Sue, I'm sorry. I was mean. Can we be friends again?" + +Sue smiled and said, "Tom, I'm sorry too. I was mean. Of course we can be friends again."

They liked to play with blocks and dolls and cars. But one day, they had a big fight. Lily wanted to play with the red car, and Tom wanted to play with the blue car. They both said, "Mine!" and pulled the cars hard. + +"Stop it!" said Mom. "You have to share. If you don't, I will take away both cars. That is a threat." + +Lily and Tom did not want to lose their cars. But they did not want to share either. They glared at each other and said, "No!" + +Mom sighed and took away the cars. She put them on a high shelf. Lily and Tom cried and stomped their feet. They were very mad. + +Then, they heard a loud noise. It was the dog. He had knocked over the shelf and grabbed the cars. He ran away with them in his mouth. He thought they were useful toys to chew. + +Lily and Tom gasped. They ran after the dog. They said, "Hey, give them back! Those are our cars!" + +They worked together to catch the dog. They tickled him and made him drop the cars. They picked them up and hugged them. They were happy to have their cars back. + +They looked at each other and smiled. They said, "Sorry, friend. Do you want to play with me?" + +They nodded and hugged. They decided to share the cars. They learned that fighting was not good. They learned that sharing was better. They learned that friends were the most useful thing of all. +Tom and Jen like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big truck. The truck has four wheels, a door, a horn and a hook. The hook can lift and move things. + +One day, Tom and Jen find a big box in the garage. They wonder what is inside. They use the hook of the truck to pull the box. The box is heavy, but the hook is strong. They drag the box to the living room. + +"Let's open the box!" Tom says. "Maybe there is a surprise inside!" + +"OK!" Jen says. "But be careful. Don't break the box. It is Mom's box." + +Tom and Jen use the hook to lift the lid of the box.

They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving on the road. + +But then they had a problem. They both wanted to play with the same metal car. It was shiny and had an open roof. Tom said it was his car, because he saw it first. Lily said it was her car, because she liked it more. They started to disagree. + +They pulled and pushed the car, trying to take it from each other. They shouted and cried, making a lot of noise. They did not want to share or take turns. They were very angry and sad. + +Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong.

They decided to share the metal car and take turns. They also found another car that had an open roof. They played with both cars and had fun. They were happy and friendly. +Lily and Ben were happy. They moved to a new house with Mom and Dad. They had many boxes to unpack. They wanted to see their toys and books. + +Lily opened a box in her room. She saw her word book. She liked her word book. It had many words and pictures. She could read some words. She took out her word book and put it on her bed. + +Ben opened a box in his room. He saw his car. He liked his car. It was red and shiny. He could make it go fast. He took out his car and put it on the floor. + +Mom and Dad opened a box in the living room. They saw a lamp. They did not like the lamp. It was cheap and ugly. It had a crack and a stain. They did not want the lamp. They put it back in the box. + +Lily and Ben came to the living room. They saw the lamp in the box. They did not know it was cheap and ugly. They thought it was fun and pretty. They took out the lamp and put it on the table. + +Mom and Dad saw the lamp on the table. They smiled. They did not mind the lamp. They loved Lily and Ben. They hugged them and said, "Welcome to our new home!" +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play outside. Today is cold. They wear hats and coats and mittens. Mom says, "Do not go far. I will make hot cocoa for you." + +Lily and Ben nod. They run to the mailbox. They want to see if there is mail. They open the mailbox. There is a big envelope. It has their names on it. It is from Grandma. + +"Look, Ben! Grandma sent us something!" Lily says. + +"Maybe it is a card. Or a book. Or a toy!" Ben says. + +They take the envelope. They run back to the house. They are excited. They want to open it. + +"Mom, mom, look what we have!" Lily and Ben say. + +Mom smiles. She says, "Wow, what a nice surprise! Let's see what Grandma sent you. But first, bring the envelope to the table. And wash your hands. They are dirty from the mailbox." + +Lily and Ben do what Mom says. They bring the envelope to the table. They wash their hands.

It could say some words like "hello" and "cracker". + +"Wow, look at the parrot!" Lily said. "It is so pretty and smart. I wish I had a parrot like that." + +"Me too," Tom said. "Maybe we can ask the man who owns the parrot if we can play with it." + +They went to the man and said, "Hello, sir. Can we play with your parrot? We like it very much." + +The man smiled and said, "Sure, you can play with my parrot. But be careful, he can be naughty sometimes. He likes to copy what people say and do." + +Lily and Tom thanked the man and went to the cage. They talked to the parrot and gave him some crackers. The parrot said "hello" and "cracker" back to them. They laughed and clapped their hands. + +Then, Lily had an idea. She said to Tom, "Let's teach the parrot some new words. Maybe he can learn to say our names." + +"OK," Tom said. "That sounds fun. What words do you want to teach him?" + +Lily thought for a moment and said, "How about 'Lily is the best' and 'Tom is silly'?" + +Tom frowned and said, "No, I don't like those words. They are not nice. They are mean. How would you feel if the parrot said 'Tom is the best' and 'Lily is silly'?" + +Lily realized that Tom was right. She said, "You are right, Tom. I'm sorry. I was being selfish. Those words are not nice. They are mean. I don't want to hurt your feelings or the parrot's feelings." + +Tom smiled and said, "It's OK, Lily. I forgive you. We are still best friends. Why don't we teach the parrot some nice words instead? Like 'Lily and Tom are friends' and 'Parrot is funny'?" + +Lily agreed and said, "That's a good idea, Tom. I like those words. They are nice. They are kind. Let's do that." + +They taught the parrot the nice words and the parrot repeated them. They were happy and proud. The man came back and said, "Wow, you are very good at teaching my parrot. He learned some new words. He sounds happy and friendly. You are very successful." + +Lily and Tom thanked the man and said goodbye to the parrot. They learned that being nice and kind is better than being selfish and mean. They also learned that being friends is more fun than being enemies. They hugged each other and went home. They were happy and grateful. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with dolls and cars. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big slide. Lily wants to go on the slide, but Ben is scared. + +"Come on, Ben, it is fun!" Lily says. "You can hold my hand." + +"No, no, no!" Ben says. "It is too high and fast. I don't like it." + +Lily goes on the slide by herself. She slides down with a big smile. She feels happy and brave. She runs back to Ben. + +"See, Ben, it is not scary. It is fun!" Lily says. "You should try it. It is a good style to be brave." + +Ben shakes his head. He does not want to try. He hugs his mom. He feels sad and scared. He starts to weep. + +Lily hears Ben weep. She feels sorry for him. She does not want him to be sad. She runs to him and gives him a hug. + +"Ben, don't weep. It is okay. You don't have to go on the slide if you don't want to. We can play something else. We can play with the swings or the sandbox. They are not scary. They are fun too." Lily says. + +Ben stops weeping. He looks at Lily. He sees her smile. He feels better. He smiles too. + +"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I am sorry I was noisy. I was scared. But you are right. We can play something else. I like the swings and the sandbox. They are fun too." Ben says. + +Lily and Ben hold hands. They run to the swings and the sandbox. They play together. They have fun. They are happy. Their moms watch them and smile. They are proud of them. +Lily was a curious girl who liked to ask questions. She wanted to know everything about the world and the stars. One night, she looked out of her window and saw a bright light in the sky. She wondered what it was and ran to her mom. + +"Mom, mom, what is that light?" she asked, pointing at the sky. + +"That is a shooting star, Lily. It is a rock that flies very fast and makes a light when it touches the air. Sometimes people make a wish when they see one," her mom explained. + +"Can I make a wish, mom?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, you can. But you have to be quick, because shooting stars vanish very soon. They are only here for a moment," her mom said. + +Lily closed her eyes and thought hard. She wished that she could see the whole universe and all the planets and stars. She opened her eyes and looked at the sky again. But the shooting star was gone. She felt sad and disappointed. + +"Mom, my wish did not come true. The shooting star vanished and I did not see the universe," she said. + +Her mom hugged her and smiled. + +"Don't be sad, Lily. You can still see the universe in your dreams. And maybe one day, when you are older, you can go on a big rocket and explore the space. You are a curious girl, and curious girls can do amazing things," her mom said. + +Lily felt better and nodded. She kissed her mom goodnight and went to bed. She closed her eyes and imagined the universe. She saw the sun, the moon, the earth, and many other planets and stars. She felt happy and excited. She did not know that her wish had come true in a different way. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. Sometimes they watch TV with their mom and dad. They see people talking about news on TV. News is when something happens in the world. Some news is good and some news is bad. + +One day, Anna and Ben see a big truck on TV. The truck is full of toys. The toys are for children who do not have many toys. The truck is going to a far place where there was a big storm. The storm broke many houses and made many people sad. Anna and Ben feel sorry for the children. + +They want to help the children. They look at their toys. They have many toys. Some toys are new and some toys are old. Some toys are expensive and some toys are cheap. Expensive is when something costs a lot of money. Cheap is when something costs a little money. + +They decide to give some of their toys to the children. They pick the toys that they do not play with much. They put them in a big box. They fill the box with toys. Fill is when something has no more space inside. They write a note on the box. The note says: "To the children who need toys. We hope you like them. From Anna and Ben." + +They show the box to their mom and dad. Their mom and dad are proud of them. They say they are very kind and generous. Kind is when you are nice to others. Generous is when you share what you have. They help them take the box to the truck. The truck driver thanks them and puts the box in the truck. He says he will take the box to the children soon. + +Anna and Ben wave goodbye to the truck. They feel happy. They still have many toys to play with. But they also made some children happy. They think that is the best news of the day. News is when something happens in the world. And sometimes news is good. +Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big garden with many flowers and trees. They also had a small patch of grass where they could run and jump. + +One day, Sara saw a new flower in the grass. It was yellow and bright, and it had just bloomed. Sara was very happy and ran to show it to Ben. + +"Look, Ben, look! A new flower in the grass! It is so pretty and shiny!" Sara said. + +Ben came to see the flower. He liked it too, but he wanted to have it for himself. He reached out his hand and pulled the flower from the grass. + +"Mine, mine, mine!" Ben said. "I want this flower. It is the best flower in the garden." + +Sara was very sad and angry. She wanted to share the flower with Ben, not to lose it. She started to cry and shout. + +"No, Ben, no! That is not nice! You hurt the flower and the grass. You hurt me too. Give it back, give it back!" + +Ben did not listen to Sara. He held the flower tightly and ran away. He thought he was smart and lucky. He did not care about Sara or the grass. + +But soon, Ben saw that the flower was not so pretty and shiny anymore. It was wilting and drooping. It had lost its color and smell. Ben felt sorry and ashamed. He realized that he had made a mistake. + +He went back to Sara and the grass. He saw that Sara was still crying and the grass was still hurt. He felt very bad. + +"Sara, Sara, I am sorry. I was wrong. I should not have taken the flower. It was yours too. It was happy in the grass. Can you forgive me?" Ben said. + +Sara looked at Ben and the flower. She saw that Ben was sorry and the flower was sad. She felt sorry too. + +"Ben, Ben, I forgive you. I know you like flowers. But we have to be kind and gentle. We have to share and care. That is how we make the flowers and the grass and ourselves happy and proud." Sara said. + +She took the flower from Ben and put it back in the grass. She hoped it would bloom again. She hugged Ben and smiled. Ben hugged Sara and smiled too. They were happy and proud. + +The moral of the story is: Be kind and gentle to nature and to others. Share and care. That is how you make yourself and others happy and proud. +Tim and Sue were twins who liked to play in the park. They saw a big hill with a path that went up and down. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side. + +They started to walk on the path, but they saw a sign that said "Do not disturb". They wondered what it meant. They saw some flowers and bugs and birds on the path. They thought they were pretty and interesting. + +"Look, Tim, a butterfly!" Sue said, pointing to a yellow and black one. "Can I catch it?" + +"No, Sue, you can't," Tim said. "The sign says do not disturb. That means we should not bother the things on the path. They are living here and they need their space." + +"But I just want to look at it closer," Sue said. "It won't hurt it." + +Sue reached out her hand to grab the butterfly, but the butterfly flew away. Sue followed it, leaving the path. She did not see where she was going. She stepped on a flower and crushed it. She scared a bug and made it run away. She bumped into a bird and made it drop its worm. + +"Stop, Sue, stop!" Tim shouted. "You are disturbing everything! You are making them sad and angry!" + +Sue stopped and looked around. She saw the flower, the bug, and the bird. She saw how they were hurt and upset by her actions. She felt sorry and ashamed. + +"I'm sorry, Tim," she said. "I did not mean to disturb them. I was just curious. I did not think about how they felt." + +"It's okay, Sue," Tim said. "But you have to be more careful and respectful. The things on the path are impressive and beautiful, but they are also alive and have feelings. We should not disturb them, but admire them from a distance." + +Sue nodded and hugged Tim. They decided to go back to the park and play with their toys. They learned a lesson that day: do not disturb the things that are not yours. +Lily liked to play dress-up with her mom's clothes. She would open the big closet and find pretty things to wear. She liked the green dress the most. It was soft and shiny and had flowers on it. + +One day, Lily wanted to wear the green dress, but she could not find it in the closet. She looked and looked, but it was not there. She felt sad and angry. Where was her green dress? + +She saw a hanger on the floor. It was the hanger for the green dress. She picked it up and followed the trail of the hanger. It led her to the living room, where she saw her brother Max. He was laying on the couch, wearing the green dress and a funny hat. He was laughing and making silly faces. + +Lily was very mad. She ran to Max and shouted, "That's my green dress! Give it back!" She tried to pull the dress off him, but he held on tight. They started to fight and tug and yell. + +Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw Lily and Max fighting over the green dress. She was not happy. She said, "Stop it, both of you! That's not how you play with clothes. You have to share and be nice. And you have to hang them up when you are done. Now, take off the dress and put it back on the hanger. And say sorry to each other." + +Lily and Max did what Mom said. They took off the dress and put it back on the hanger. They said sorry to each other and gave each other a hug. Mom smiled and said, "That's better. Now, why don't you play something else together? You can use the dress another day, but ask first, OK?" + +Lily and Max nodded and said, "OK, Mom." They decided to play with the blocks and make a castle. They had fun and did not fight anymore. They liked the green dress, but they liked each other more. +Tom is a little boy who likes to help his mom on the farm. Every morning, he wakes up early and puts on his boots and hat. He follows his mom to the barn, where the cows are waiting for their breakfast. + +Mom gives Tom a small bucket and a stool. She shows him how to squeeze the cow's udder gently to get the milk. Tom tries to do the same, but it is hard. The cow's udder is big and warm, and the milk comes out in thin streams. Tom has to squeeze a lot to fill his bucket. + +Tom is proud of his work. He looks at his bucket and sees the white milk. He smiles and says, "Look, mom, I did it!" Mom smiles back and says, "Good job, Tom, you are a great helper!" She gives him a hug and a kiss. + +They take their buckets to the kitchen, where they pour the milk into a big pot. Mom says they will make cheese and butter with the milk. Tom likes cheese and butter. He thinks they are yummy. + +Tom and mom are quiet as they work. They listen to the birds singing outside, and the fire crackling in the stove. They are happy and cozy. Tom loves his mom and the farm. He thinks it is the best place in the world. +One day, a charming monkey named Mimi wanted to sail on the big river. She found a big leaf that looked like a boat and jumped on it. She used a stick to push the leaf on the water. + +"Look at me, I am sailing!" she shouted to her friends on the shore. "This is so much fun!" + +But soon, the river became faster and Mimi saw a big waterfall ahead. She was scared and did not know how to stop the leaf. She cried for help. + +"Help me, help me, I don't want to fall!" + +Her friends heard her and ran along the river. They saw a long vine hanging from a tree. They grabbed the vine and swung over the river. They reached Mimi and pulled her off the leaf just in time. + +"Mimi, are you okay?" they asked. + +"Yes, I am okay, thank you for saving me!" Mimi said. "You are very brave and kind!" + +They hugged Mimi and swung back to the shore. They decided to play a safer game, like hide and seek. They learned that sailing on the river was not a good idea for monkeys. +Tim and Lily liked to play in the garden. They had a big tree with a swing and a slide. They also had a small house where they kept their toys and books. One day, they decided to play pirates. Tim wore a hat and a scarf and Lily wore a dress and a necklace. They took some sticks and pretended they were swords. + +They ran around the garden, shouting and laughing. They said things like "Ahoy, matey!" and "Shiver me timbers!" They pretended to fight and chase each other. Sometimes they hid behind the tree or the slide. They had a lot of fun. + +But then, Tim saw something on the table. It was a jar of jam and some bread. Tim loved jam. He forgot about playing pirates and ran to the table. He opened the jar and took a big spoonful of jam. He put it in his mouth and smiled. It was sweet and sticky. + +Lily saw Tim eating the jam. She was angry. She ran to the table and said "Hey, that's not fair! You have to share the jam!" She tried to take the jar from Tim, but he held it tight. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They made a mess. Jam spilled on the table and on their clothes. + +Their mom heard the noise and came to the garden. She saw Tim and Lily fighting over the jam. She was not happy. She said "Stop it, you two! What are you doing? You are making a big mess and wasting the jam!" She took the jar from them and put it away. She said "You have to say sorry to each other and clean up the mess. And no more jam for you today!" + +Tim and Lily felt bad. They said sorry to each other and to their mom. They hugged and said they were still friends. They helped their mom clean up the mess. They went back to their small house and played with their toys and books. They did not play pirates anymore. They learned to share and not to fight over jam. They were friendly and happy. +Lila and Tom were playing with blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. + +"Look, I can add this blue block to my tower. It makes it taller and more beautiful," Lila said. + +"I can add this red block to my car. It makes it faster and more value," Tom said. + +They were happy and proud of their creations. They showed them to each other and smiled. + +But then, a big dog came into the room. He saw the blocks and thought they were toys for him. He ran towards them and barked. + +"Go away, dog! These are our blocks, not yours!" Lila and Tom shouted. + +But the dog did not listen. He jumped on the blocks and knocked them down. He bit them and chewed them and threw them around. He made a big mess. + +Lila and Tom were very sad and angry. They cried and screamed. Their blocks were broken and ruined. They had no more towers or houses or cars. They had no more fun. + +The dog did not care. He wagged his tail and licked his lips. He thought he had a good time. He did not know he was bad. +Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big dog with a red collar. The dog was barking and jumping. Tim and Lily wanted to pet the dog. + +"Hello, doggy!" Tim said. He ran to the dog. Lily followed him. The dog did not like Tim and Lily. The dog was angry and scared. The dog bit Tim's hand. Tim cried out loud. Lily was shocked. She ran to get help. + +"Help! Help! A dog bit Tim!" Lily shouted. She saw a man with a watch. The watch was shiny and had many buttons. Lily thought the man was a hero. She ran to the man. "Please, help us! A dog bit Tim!" Lily said. + +The man looked at Lily. He looked at his watch. He looked at the dog. He did not care. He was busy and mean. He said, "Go away, kid. I have no time for you. This is a broken watch. It does not work. I need to fix it." + +Lily was sad and angry. She did not understand. She said, "But Tim is hurt! The dog is bad! You have to rescue him!" + +The man said, "No, I don't. This is not my problem. This is your problem. Go find someone else." He walked away. He left Lily and Tim alone. + +Lily did not know what to do. She was scared and worried. She hugged Tim. Tim was bleeding and crying. The dog was still barking and jumping. No one came to rescue them. They were in trouble. The end. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big saw on the ground. Tom wanted to pull the saw and see what it could do. Lily wanted to pull the saw too. She said, "I can pull the saw. I am independent. I don't need your help." + +Tom and Lily both pulled the saw, but they pulled it in different ways. Tom pulled it to the left and Lily pulled it to the right. The saw did not move. It was stuck in the ground. Tom and Lily pulled harder and harder. They started to get angry and shout at each other. + +"Let go of the saw! It is mine!" Tom said. + +"No, it is mine! I saw it first!" Lily said. + +They pulled and pulled until they heard a loud snap. The saw broke in half. Tom and Lily looked at the broken saw. They felt sad and sorry. They did not want to play with the saw anymore. They wanted to play with each other. + +They put the broken saw back on the ground. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They decided to play with something else. They saw a ball and a hoop. They smiled and ran to the ball and the hoop. They played together and had fun. They learned to share and be kind. +Tim and Sam were friends who liked to play in the park. They liked to swing on the swings, slide on the slides and run on the grass. One day, they saw a big pot on a bench. The pot was shiny and had a lid. + +"Wow, look at that pot!" Tim said. "Maybe it has something good inside. Maybe it has candy or toys or money. Maybe we can be rich!" + +Sam was curious too. He wanted to see what was in the pot. He followed Tim to the bench. They lifted the lid and peeked inside. + +But the pot was not full of candy or toys or money. It was full of bees! The bees were angry and flew out of the pot. They buzzed and stung Tim and Sam all over. Tim and Sam screamed and ran away. They dropped the lid and the pot. The pot broke and the bees flew everywhere. + +Tim and Sam were very sad and hurt. They had bumps and red spots on their skin. They cried and wished they had never touched the pot. They learned that being rich was not worth being stung by bees. They decided to stay away from shiny pots and play with their own toys. +Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they saw a big mug on the table. It was pale blue and had a picture of a cat on it. Sara and Ben loved cats, so they wanted to see the mug better. + +"Can we look at the mug, Mom?" Sara asked. + +"Sure, but be careful. It's hot. It has tea in it," Mom said. + +Sara and Ben climbed on the chairs and gazed at the mug. They saw the cat's ears, eyes, nose, and whiskers. They smiled and said, "Meow, meow!" + +Suddenly, the mug tipped over and spilled tea on the table. Sara and Ben jumped back and screamed. Mom ran to the table and grabbed the mug. + +"Oh no! The mug is broken! And the tea is everywhere!" Mom said. + +Sara and Ben felt sorry. They did not mean to break the mug. They hugged Mom and said, "We're sorry, Mom. We just wanted to see the cat." + +Mom sighed and smiled. She hugged Sara and Ben and said, "It's okay. I know you didn't mean it. But next time, ask me before you touch something hot or fragile. And don't climb on the chairs. You could fall and hurt yourself." + +Sara and Ben nodded and said, "Okay, Mom. We're sorry. We love you." + +Mom said, "I love you too. Now let's clean up this mess and find another mug for my tea." +Ben and Lily were adventurous kids. They liked to create things with their toys and tools. One day, they found a big box in the garage. They decided to make a mule out of the box and some other things. + +They cut holes for the eyes and the mouth. They used a broom for the tail and some rope for the ears. They painted the box brown and black. They were very proud of their mule. + +"Let's ride the mule!" Ben said. "We can go to the park and show everyone!" + +"OK!" Lily said. "But we have to be careful. The mule is not very strong." + +They put the mule on a wagon and pulled it to the park. They saw some other kids playing there. They wanted to show them their mule. + +"Look at our mule!" Ben shouted. "We made it ourselves!" + +The other kids laughed. They thought the mule was silly and ugly. They made fun of Ben and Lily. + +"That's not a mule!" one kid said. "That's a box with a broom!" + +"That's the worst mule I ever saw!" another kid said. "It can't even walk or talk!" + +Ben and Lily felt sad and angry. They didn't like the other kids. They wanted to go home. + +"Come on, Lily," Ben said. "Let's take our mule and leave." + +They tried to pull the wagon, but it was too heavy. The mule was too big and bulky. The wheels got stuck in the mud. The rope broke. The broom fell off. The box ripped. + +Their mule was ruined. They couldn't fix it. They couldn't take it home. They had to leave it in the park. + +They cried. They wished they never made the mule. They wished they never came to the park. They wished they were more careful. + +They learned a hard lesson. They learned that creating things is fun, but not always easy. They learned that not everyone likes their creations. They learned that they have to be respectful and responsible. + +They walked home, holding hands. They hoped to create something better next time. +Tom and Lily wanted to play a trick on their big sister, Anna. They did not like Anna because she was mean to them. She always took their toys and told them to be quiet. They had a plan to make her scream. + +They went to the garden and dug for worms. They found many worms, big and small, and put them in a bucket. They were very careful not to hurt the worms. They liked the worms, but they knew Anna did not. + +They waited for Anna to come home from school. They saw her walk to the door with her backpack. They ran to the door and hid behind it. They held the bucket of worms and got ready to throw them on her. + +But they were too clumsy. As they lifted the bucket, they tripped over each other and spilled the worms on the floor. The worms wriggled and crawled everywhere. Tom and Lily screamed and jumped back. + +Anna heard the noise and opened the door. She saw Tom and Lily and the worms. She was not scared. She laughed and said, "What a silly plan! You two are so funny. Do you want to play with the worms with me?" + +Tom and Lily were surprised. They did not know Anna liked worms. They felt bad for trying to trick her. They said, "Sorry, Anna. We wanted to make you scream. We did not know you liked worms." + +Anna smiled and said, "It's okay. I forgive you. I like worms because they are good for the garden. They make the soil rich and help the plants grow. Do you want to learn more about worms?" + +Tom and Lily nodded. They were curious about worms. They forgot their plan and followed Anna to the garden. They played with the worms and learned many things. They had fun with Anna and the worms. They became friends. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big tree with a rope. The rope has a knot at the end. They want to swing on the rope. + +"Can I go first?" Anna asks. She is eager to try the rope. + +"OK, but be careful," Ben says. He helps Anna hold the rope. Anna runs and jumps. She swings in the air. She feels happy. + +"Wow, you are good at this!" Ben says. He claps his hands. + +"Thank you. Your turn now," Anna says. She lets go of the rope. She lands on the grass. + +Ben grabs the rope. He runs and jumps. He swings in the air. He feels happy too. + +But then, something bad happens. The knot comes loose. The rope falls down. Ben falls down too. He hits the ground. He feels pain. + +"Ouch!" Ben cries. He holds his arm. He has a cut. + +"Oh no, are you OK?" Anna asks. She runs to Ben. She is worried. + +"I think so. It hurts a lot," Ben says. He tries to smile. + +"Come on, let's go to your mom. She can help you," Anna says. She helps Ben stand up. She holds his hand. + +They walk to Ben's mom. She is sitting on a bench. She sees them. + +"What happened?" she asks. She is surprised. + +"We were playing with the rope. But the knot came off. And Ben fell down. He has a cut," Anna says. She is sorry. + +"I'm sorry too. It was an accident," Ben says. He is brave. + +"Don't worry, it's not your fault. Let me see your cut. I have a band-aid in my bag," Ben's mom says. She is kind. + +She cleans Ben's cut. She puts a band-aid on it. She gives him a hug. + +"There, you'll be fine. You are a strong boy," she says. She is proud. + +"Thank you, mom. You are the best," Ben says. He is grateful. + +"Thank you, Anna. You are a good friend," Ben says. He is happy. + +"You're welcome, Ben. I'm glad you're OK," Anna says. She is happy too. + +They hug each other. They are still friends. They have gained a new memory. +Lily and Tom like to play on the shore. They see sand and water and shells and rocks. They run and jump and dig and splash. They have fun. + +One day, they find a tall stick on the shore. It is brown and hard and has a pointy end. Lily says, "Look, Tom, a sharp stick! We can use it to draw in the sand." Tom says, "Yes, let's do that. But be careful, Lily, don't poke yourself or me with the sharp stick." + +They take the sharp stick and make lines and shapes and letters in the sand. They make a sun and a moon and a star and a heart. They make a L for Lily and a T for Tom. They are happy. + +But then, a big wave comes and washes away their drawings. Lily and Tom are sad. They say, "Oh no, our drawings are gone. The wave took them away." They look for the sharp stick, but they can't find it. The wave took it away too. + +They hug each other and say, "It's okay, Lily and Tom. We can make new drawings another day. We still have each other and we still have fun." They smile and run and jump and dig and splash again. They are happy. +Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see a big white radish in the ground. They want to eat it. + +"Can we open the radish?" Ben asks Mia. + +"Yes, let's open it!" Mia says. They pull the radish with their hands. It is hard to open. They pull and pull and pull. + +Pop! The radish comes out. It is very big and round. Ben and Mia are happy. They wash the radish with water. They take a bite. + +"Mmm, it is crunchy and sweet!" Ben says. + +"It is yummy and juicy!" Mia says. + +They share the radish and eat it all. They smile and hug. They love the white radish. They love to play in the garden. +Tim and Mia were twins who liked to play in the park. They had many toys, but they always wanted more. They were spoiled children who did not share or say thank you. + +One day, they saw a big box under a tree. They ran to it and opened it. Inside, they found many shiny things. They were gold and silver and jewels. They were treasure! + +"Wow, look at all this!" Tim said. "We are rich!" + +"Let's take it home!" Mia said. "It's ours!" + +They grabbed as much as they could and stuffed it in their pockets and bags. They did not notice the sign on the box that said: "Do not touch. This is a trap." + +They started to walk back to their house, but they felt very heavy. The treasure was too much for them to carry. They got tired and thirsty and hungry. They wished they had brought some water or snacks. + +They also saw some scary things on the way. They saw a big dog that barked at them. They saw a mean man who yelled at them. They saw a police car that flashed its lights at them. They were afraid and wanted to go back. + +They realized they had made a mistake. They did not need the treasure. They had everything they needed at home. They had a nice house, a loving family, and good friends. They had been greedy and selfish. + +They decided to pray. They closed their eyes and said: "Please, God, help us. We are sorry for what we did. We want to give back the treasure and be good children. Please, make the dog, the man, and the police go away. Please, let us go home." + +They opened their eyes and saw a miracle. The dog, the man, and the police were gone. The box was still under the tree, but it was empty. The treasure had disappeared from their pockets and bags. They felt light and free. + +They ran back to the park and hugged each other. They said: "Thank you, God, for answering our prayer. We learned our lesson. We will never be spoiled again. We will share and say thank you. We will be happy with what we have." + +They went home and told their parents what had happened. Their parents were glad and proud of them. They gave them a big hug and a kiss. They said: "We love you, Tim and Mia. You are our treasure." +Tim and Kim like to play in the park. They like to run and jump and swing. They also like to find leaves on the ground. They look for leaves that are big and small, red and yellow, round and pointy. + +One day, they have a game. They try to match the leaves. They look for two leaves that are the same. They put them in a pile. They say, "This leaf matches this leaf. They are both big and red and round." They do this for many leaves. + +But then, they see a fierce dog. The dog is big and black and has sharp teeth. It barks and growls and runs at them. Tim and Kim are scared. They drop the leaves and run away. They look for a safe place to hide. + +They find a bench near a big tree. They sit on the bench and hug each other. They say, "That dog is fierce. It does not match us. We are small and nice and friendly." They wait for the dog to go away. + +After a while, they see a man. The man has a leash and a collar. He calls the dog and puts the leash and the collar on it. He says, "Sorry, kids. My dog is not fierce. He is just playful. He likes to chase leaves. He does not want to hurt you." He walks away with the dog. + +Tim and Kim are happy. They say, "The man is nice. He matches us. He is big and kind and gentle." They go back to the leaves and play their game again. They have fun. They match the leaves. +Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They saw some white flowers with yellow middles. Lily liked them very much. She ran to them and said, "Look, Tom, daisies! They are so pretty!" + +Tom followed her and said, "Yes, they are. Do you know what you can do with them? You can pick them and make a wish. If you blow on them, the white parts fly away and your wish comes true." + +Lily smiled and said, "Really? That sounds fun. Let's try it. I want to pick this one. It is the biggest and the brightest." She picked the flower and held it in her hand. + +Tom said, "OK, now close your eyes and think of something you want. Then blow on the flower and see what happens." + +Lily closed her eyes and thought hard. She wished for a new doll. She had seen one in the shop window and she wanted it very much. She opened her eyes and blew on the flower. The white parts flew away in the wind. + +Tom clapped his hands and said, "Good job, Lily! Did you make a wish?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, I did. I wished for a new doll. Do you think it will come true?" + +Tom shrugged and said, "I don't know. Maybe. Sometimes wishes do come true. But sometimes they don't. It depends on many things. But it is fun to try anyway. Do you want to pick another one?" + +Lily said, "Yes, please. But this time I want to pick a little one. Maybe it will work better. And I want to wish for something else. Something more important." + +Tom said, "What do you want to wish for?" + +Lily said, "I want to wish for you to be happy. You are my best friend and I love you very much." + +Tom smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. That is very sweet of you. I love you too. And I want to wish for you to be happy too. Let's pick a little one together and share our wish." + +They picked a little flower and held it between them. They closed their eyes and wished for each other's happiness. Then they blew on the flower and watched the white parts fly away. They hugged each other and laughed. They felt happy and hopeful. They believed that their wishes would come true. +Anna and Ben are playing with colorful blocks. They are building a big tower with many shapes. Anna likes to put the blocks on top of each other. Ben likes to knock them down. + +"Stop it, Ben!" Anna says. "I want to finish the tower. It is very pretty." + +"No, it is not!" Ben says. "It is boring. I want to make it fall. It is fun." + +Anna and Ben start to fight. They pull and push the blocks. The tower falls down. The blocks go everywhere. Some blocks go into the sink. + +"Oh no!" Anna and Ben say. "The sink is full of water. The blocks will get wet. Mom will be angry." + +Anna and Ben run to the sink. They try to get the blocks out. But the water is too high. They cannot reach them. + +"Help, help!" Anna and Ben shout. "We need a stool. We need a towel. We need to fix this." + +Mom hears them. She comes into the kitchen. She sees the mess. She sees the sink. She sees the blocks. + +"What happened here?" Mom asks. "Why did you put the blocks in the sink?" + +Anna and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry. They tell Mom the truth. + +"We were playing with the blocks. We were fighting. We made the tower fall. The blocks went into the sink. We are sorry, Mom." + +Mom sighs. She is not happy. But she is not very angry. She knows Anna and Ben are still learning. + +"Next time, play nicely with the blocks. Do not fight. Do not put them in the sink. The sink is for washing, not for playing. Do you understand?" + +"Yes, Mom." Anna and Ben say. "We understand. We are sorry." + +Mom helps Anna and Ben get the blocks out. She dries them with a towel. She puts them back in the box. She gives Anna and Ben a hug. + +"Now, go and play something else. But be careful. And be kind." + +"Okay, Mom." Anna and Ben say. "We will. Thank you, Mom." + +Anna and Ben go and play something else. They do not fight. They share. They have fun. They are happy. +Ben and Mia like to play in the park. They see a pond with ducks and fish. They want to feed the ducks some bread. + +"Look, Ben, the ducks are hungry!" Mia says. + +"Yes, let's give them some bread. But be careful, don't go too close to the pond," Ben says. + +They break the bread into little pieces and throw them to the ducks. The ducks swim and quack and eat the bread. Ben and Mia laugh and clap. + +"Can we mark the ducks, Ben?" Mia asks. + +"Mark the ducks? What do you mean?" Ben asks. + +"I want to draw on them with my crayon. Then we can know which duck is which," Mia says. + +"No, Mia, we can't mark the ducks. That's not nice. The ducks have their own colors and feathers. We can't change them," Ben says. + +"But I want to make them pretty. Like my doll," Mia says. + +"Mia, the ducks are already pretty. And they are not dolls. They are alive. They don't like crayons on them. They like bread and water and sun," Ben says. + +"Okay, Ben, I understand. I won't mark the ducks. I will just watch them and say hello," Mia says. + +They sit on the grass and watch the ducks. They see a little duck with a yellow beak and a green head. They think he is the leader of the ducks. They name him Mark. They say hello to Mark and his friends. They are happy. +Sara woke up early in the morning. She heard a loud noise outside her window. She wondered what it was.

There is a big truck outside! It is making a lot of noise!" she said. + +Mom and Dad opened the door. They were sleepy and grumpy. They did not like the harsh noise of the truck. "What is it, Sara?" Mom asked. + +"Come and see, Mom! There is a big truck outside! It is digging a hole in the street!" Sara repeated. + +Mom and Dad followed Sara to her window. They saw the big truck with the shovel. They also saw some men in orange vests and helmets. They were working on the street. + +Mom explained to Sara. "They are fixing the pipes under the street, Sara. Sometimes the pipes break and they need to be repaired. That is why they are digging a hole." + +Sara nodded. She understood. She still wondered why they had to do it so early in the morning. She wished they would be quieter. She said, "Can we go back to bed, Mom? I am still sleepy." + +Mom smiled and hugged Sara. She said, "Yes, we can go back to bed, Sara. Maybe the truck will be gone soon. Let's try to ignore the noise and have a good morning." +Ben and Mia were best friends. They liked to play together at school. One day, they had a show and tell.

They did not laugh. They did not point. They did not whisper. They clapped their hands. They applauded. Mia smiled. She was happy. Ben and Mia hugged. They were best friends. +Tom likes to play with his cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He keeps them on a shelf in his room. Every day, he takes some cars down and makes them race on the floor. He makes noises like vroom and beep. + +One day, Tom sees a new car on his shelf. It is shiny and red. It has big wheels and a loud horn. Tom thinks it is the best car ever. He wants to play with it right away. He reaches for the car, but it is too high.

She has a basket with snacks and drinks. + +Anna and Ben run to Mom. They show her the fan. + +"Mom, look, a fan!" Anna says. "We found it on the grass. It is colorful and fun!" + +Mom smiles. She sees the fan is old and torn. But she knows Anna and Ben like it. She lets them keep it. + +"That's a nice fan, Anna and Ben," Mom says. "You can play with it at home. But first, let's have some snacks and drinks. You must be hungry and thirsty." + +Anna and Ben nod. They are hungry and thirsty. They put the fan in the basket. They sit on the bench with Mom.

She wondered what it was doing there. + +She peeked from behind the tree and saw two people in white clothes. They were carrying a big bag with a red cross on it. They looked very busy and serious. Lily wanted to see what was in the bag, but she knew she had to stay hidden. She hoped Ben would not find her soon. + +Ben finished counting and started to look for Lily. He looked under the slide, behind the bench, and in the bushes. He could not see her anywhere. He heard a loud noise from the road. He saw the ambulance with its lights flashing and its siren wailing. He wondered what was happening. + +He ran to the tree where Lily was hiding. He saw her peeking from behind it.

He screamed and dropped his toy car. + +"Tom, what's wrong?" Lily asked. + +"Spider! Spider! It's scary!" Tom said. + +He ran out of the barn, leaving Lily behind. Lily was not afraid of spiders. She thought they were interesting. She picked up Tom's toy car and followed him. + +"Tom, wait! It's just a spider. It won't hurt you," Lily said. + +But Tom did not listen. He ran to his mom, who was in the kitchen. He hugged her and wept. + +"Mom, there was a big spider in the barn. It was scary. I don't like spiders," Tom said. + +His mom hugged him and said, "It's okay, Tom. Spiders are not scary. They are just small animals that make webs. They help us by eating bugs. You don't have to be afraid of them." + +She wiped his tears and gave him a cookie. She said, "Why don't you go back to the barn and play with Lily? She is your friend. She will help you feel better." + +Tom felt embarrassed. He had run away from a spider and left his friend alone. He said, "Okay, Mom. I will go back to the barn.

I was scared of the spider." + +Lily smiled and said, "It's okay, Tom. I'm not mad at you. I know you don't like spiders. But they are not scary. They are just different. Do you want to see the spider? I can show you. It's not big. It's small and fuzzy." + +Tom hesitated. He still felt afraid. But he also felt curious. He said, "Okay, Lily. You can show me the spider. But don't touch it. And don't let it touch me." + +Lily nodded and said, "Okay, Tom. Come with me. I will show you the spider. It's over there, on the wall. See? It's not scary.

It's not scary. It's cute. It's making a web. How does it do that?" + +Lily said, "I don't know, Tom. But it's amazing. Maybe we can learn more about spiders. Maybe we can read a book about them. Or watch a video about them. Or ask Mom about them." + +Tom said, "Yeah, Lily. That sounds fun. Let's do that. But first, let's play with our toy cars and dolls. We still have to go to the zoo, remember?" + +Lily said, "Yeah, Tom. Let's do that. We still have to go to the zoo. And maybe we will see more spiders there.

I brought you some cookies to say welcome." + +Tommy was confused. He did not know what welcome meant. He did not know who Lily was. He did not know what cookies were. He stared at the girl and the basket. + +"Who are you?" he asked. "What are those?" + +Lily laughed. She thought Tommy was funny. She put the basket on the floor and knelt down. + +"I told you, I'm Lily. I'm your friend. And these are cookies. They are yummy. You can eat them. Do you want to try one?" she said. + +She took a cookie from the basket and held it out to Tommy. Tommy looked at the cookie. It was round and brown and had little dots on it. He was curious.

The bug flew off his toe and landed on the wall. + +"Ah, a bug!" Tommy yelled. "It bit me! It hurt!" + +Lily looked at Tommy and saw his toe. It was red and swollen. She felt sorry for Tommy. She said, "Oh, no, Tommy. Are you okay? Do you need a band-aid?" + +Tommy nodded and said, "Yes, please." + +He held his toe and cried. He did not like bugs. He did not like pain. He decided that bugs were bad. + +Lily got up and ran to the door. She said, "Don't worry, Tommy. I'll be right back. I'll get you a band-aid from my house." + +She opened the door and ran out. She was fast. She wanted to help Tommy. She wanted to make him feel better. She decided that Tommy was brave. + +She came back with a band-aid and a hug.

Ben said, pointing to a bright red block that Lily had in her hand. + +"No, it's mine!" Lily said, holding the block tight. + +Ben reached for the block and tried to pull it from Lily's hand. Lily did not let go. She was angry and pinched Ben's arm. + +"Ow!" Ben cried, letting go of the block. "That hurts! Why did you pinch me?" + +"Because you tried to take my block!" Lily said, sticking out her tongue. + +Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw Ben rubbing his arm and Lily holding the block. + +"What's going on here?" Mom asked. + +"Lily pinched me!" Ben said. + +"Ben tried to take my block!" Lily said. + +Mom sighed and looked at the clock. "You two need to learn to play nicely.

They wanted to touch it, but it was too far. + +"Maybe we can spring to it," Ben said. He bent his legs and tried to jump. But he only reached the air. + +Lena laughed. "You can't spring that high, Ben. It's too hard." + +"Then how can we get to the crane?" Ben asked. + +They thought for a while. Then they saw a man walking to the crane. He had a hat and a vest and a key. + +"Excuse me, sir," Lena said. "Can we see your crane?" + +The man smiled. He was the crane driver. He liked children who were curious and lively. + +"Sure, you can see my crane," he said. "But you have to be careful. It's a big machine and it can be dangerous." + +He took them to the crane and showed them how it worked. He let them sit in the cabin and press some buttons. The crane moved its neck and bucket. Lena and Ben were very happy. They thanked the man and waved goodbye. + +They went back to the grass and played some more. They pretended to be cranes and lifted things with their arms. They had a lot of fun. They liked the crane and the crane driver. They learned something new. +Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play with trains. They have a big box of trains and tracks.

They are still sad and angry. + +Mom says, "You know, lying on your beds is not fun. Playing with your trains is fun. But you have to share and be nice. You are twins. You are friends. You should not fight over a train. You have many other trains. You can fix the red train together. You can make the station better together. You can have more fun together. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Tom look at Mom. They look at each other. They feel sorry. They nod. + +Mom says, "Good. Now, say sorry to each other and hug. Then, go and play with your trains.

They loved to see all the different animals, but their favorite was the big bird with a long neck and legs. They called it an ostrich. + +One day, they saw a sign that said "Do not feed the ostriches". Tom and Lily wondered why. They thought the ostriches must be hungry and sad. They wanted to make them happy. So they sneaked some bread from their lunch bag and waited for their mom to look away. + +"Let's go and give the bread to the ostriches," Tom whispered to Lily. "They will like us and be our friends." + +"Okay," Lily agreed. "But we have to be quick and quiet." + +They ran to the fence where the ostriches were. They saw one ostrich with a black and white feather. It looked at them with big eyes. Tom and Lily smiled and threw some bread over the fence. The ostrich ate it and made a funny noise. + +"See, he likes it!" Tom said. "Let's give him more." + +They threw more bread to the ostrich. The ostrich ate it and made another noise. But this time, it was not a funny noise. It was a loud and angry noise. The ostrich opened its big mouth and bit the fence. It shook its head and tried to break the fence. + +"Uh-oh," Lily said. "He does not like it. He is naughty." + +"Run!" Tom shouted. "He is going to get us!" + +They turned around and ran back to their mom. But they were too late. The ostrich had broken the fence and was chasing them. It was faster than them. It caught up with them and pecked their heads. + +"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Tom and Lily cried. "Help! Help! Help!" + +Their mom heard them and came to their rescue. She grabbed them and ran away from the ostrich. She was very angry and scared. + +"What were you doing?" she asked them. "Didn't you see the sign? You should never feed the ostriches. They are wild and dangerous. You could have been hurt." + +"We are sorry, mom," Tom and Lily said. "We didn't know. We wanted to make them happy." + +"Well, you made them very unhappy," their mom said. "And you made me unhappy too. You were very naughty. You have to listen to the rules and be careful. Do you understand?" + +"Yes, mom," Tom and Lily said. "We understand. We will never feed the ostriches again." + +They hugged their mom and said they loved her. She hugged them back and said she loved them too. But she also said they had to go home and take a nap. They were too tired and sore from the ostrich attack. + +Tom and Lily nodded and followed their mom. They learned their lesson. They never fed the ostriches again. But they still liked to see them from a safe distance. They hoped the ostriches would forgive them and be their friends. Maybe one day, they would. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the living room. There are many furniture in the living room. Some are big and some are small. Some are soft and some are hard. Some are fragile and some are not. + +One day, Anna and Ben want to play a game. They want to pretend they are animals. Anna wants to be a cat and Ben wants to be a dog. They run and jump and chase each other. They have fun. + +But they are not careful. They bump into the furniture. They knock over a lamp. It is fragile. It breaks. They hear a loud noise. They see pieces of glass on the floor. They are scared. + +Mom hears the noise too. She comes to the living room. She sees the mess. She is angry. + +"Anna and Ben, what did you do?" she asks. + +"We were playing, Mom. We were animals. We did not mean to break the lamp. We are sorry," they say. + +Mom sighs. She is not happy. She tells them to sit on the couch. She tells them to be quiet. She tells them to wait. She gets a broom and a dustpan. She cleans the glass. She throws it away. + +She comes back to the couch. She looks at Anna and Ben. They look sad. They look sorry. + +Mom sits with them. She hugs them. She says, "I know you were playing. I know you did not mean to break the lamp. But you have to be careful. The lamp was fragile. It was not a toy. You could have hurt yourself. You have to try to be more gentle with the furniture. Do you understand?" + +Anna and Ben nod. They say, "We understand, Mom. We will try to be more gentle. We love you, Mom." + +Mom smiles. She says, "I love you too, Anna and Ben. Now, let's go to the kitchen. I have some cookies for you. But no more playing animals in the living room, okay?" + +Anna and Ben agree. They say, "Okay, Mom. No more playing animals in the living room. Thank you for the cookies, Mom." + +They hold Mom's hand. They go to the kitchen. They eat the cookies. They are happy. +Anna was lonely. She had no friends to play with. She liked to use her crayons and draw pictures, but she wished she had someone to share them with. + +One day, she saw a grape on the table. It was round and purple and shiny. She picked it up and said, "Hello, grape. Do you want to be my friend?" + +The grape did not answer. It was just a grape. But Anna pretended that it did. She said, "What is your name, grape?" + +The grape said, "My name is Gigi. I am happy to meet you, Anna." + +Anna smiled. She said, "Do you like to draw, Gigi?" + +The grape said, "Yes, I do. Can I see your pictures?" + +Anna showed her the pictures she had drawn. There were flowers and stars and rainbows. The grape said, "They are very pretty, Anna. You are very good at drawing." + +Anna said, "Thank you, Gigi. You are very nice. Do you want to draw with me?" + +The grape said, "Yes, please. Can I use your crayons?" + +Anna said, "Of course. Here, you can use this one. It is green. It is my favorite color." + +The grape said, "Thank you, Anna. Green is my favorite color too." + +Anna and the grape drew together. They had fun. They made more pictures. They laughed and talked. Anna was not lonely anymore. She had a friend. She was happy. +Lily liked to zip her cap on her head when she went outside. She liked how it kept her ears warm and how it had a big star on the front. She also liked to zip her coat and her boots, because they made her feel cozy and ready for fun. + +One day, she saw a little bird on the ground. It looked cold and scared. It had a hurt wing and could not fly. Lily felt sad for the bird. She wanted to help it. She was a compassionate girl who cared about animals. + +She took off her cap and gently put it over the bird. She hoped it would make the bird feel better. She ran inside and asked her mom for some bread and water. She came back with a small plate and a cup. She lifted her cap and gave the bird some food and drink. The bird ate and drank and looked at Lily with gratitude. + +Lily smiled and stroked the bird's feathers. She told the bird not to worry. She said she would take care of it until it got better. She said she would be its friend. The bird chirped and snuggled under her cap. Lily felt happy and proud. She had done a good thing. She had zipped her cap on a bird. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. But today it is raining. Anna and Ben are sad. + +"Can we go out and play?" Ben asks his mom. + +"No, it is too wet and cold. You will get sick," mom says. + +Anna and Ben are bored. They look at the window. They see a big puddle. They want to jump in it. + +"Let's go out and play in the puddle!" Anna says. + +"OK, but we need an umbrella," Ben says. + +They find an umbrella in the closet. It is red and yellow. They put on their boots and coats. They sneak out of the door. + +They run to the puddle. They hold the umbrella together. They jump in the puddle. They splash and laugh. They have fun. + +But then they hear a loud voice. + +"Anna! Ben! What are you doing?" mom shouts. + +She sees them in the puddle. She is angry. She runs to them. + +Anna and Ben are scared. They pause. They look at mom. + +"We are sorry, mom. We just wanted to play," Anna says. + +"You are very bad. You did not listen to me. You are wet and dirty. Come inside right now," mom says. + +She takes the umbrella from them. She drags them inside. She makes them take off their boots and coats. She makes them take a bath. She makes them sit in their rooms. + +Anna and Ben are sad. They miss the puddle. They miss the umbrella. They miss each other. They wish mom was not so mad. They wish it was sunny. +Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to swing on the swings and slide on the slide. They saw a big tree with a rope and a belt hanging from it. "Look, a swing!" Tom said. "Let's try it!" + +They ran to the tree and Tom climbed on the belt. He held the rope with his hands and pushed with his feet. He swung back and forth, high and low. He laughed and shouted. "This is fun! Come on, Lila, you try!" + +Lila was scared. She did not like high things. She shook her head. "No, thank you. I will watch you." + +Tom swung faster and faster. He felt brave and happy. He wanted to show Lila how good he was. He let go of one hand and waved at her. "Look at me, Lila! Look at me!" + +But he lost his balance. He slipped off the belt and fell to the ground. He hit his head on a rock. He felt a lot of pain. He cried and cried. He tasted blood in his mouth. It was bitter. + +Lila ran to him and hugged him. She was scared and sad. She called for help. "Help! Help! Tom is hurt! Help!" + +But no one came. They were alone in the park. The sun was going down. It was getting cold and dark. They did not know what to do. They wished they had never seen the swing. They wished they had stayed on the slide. +Lila and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very happy. + +But then they heard a loud howl. It came from the woods. They saw a big, gray wolf. He had sharp teeth and yellow eyes. He looked hungry and angry. He ran towards them. + +Lila and Ben were scared. They shivered and hugged each other. They did not know what to do. + +"Go away, wolf!" Ben shouted. "You cannot have us! We are not your food!" + +The wolf did not listen. He came closer and closer. He growled and snarled. + +But then they heard another sound. It was a bark. It came from their house. It was Rex, their dog. He was big and brown. He was strong and brave. He saw the wolf and ran to help Lila and Ben. + +"Rex, Rex, Rex!" Lila and Ben cheered. "You are here! You are our friend!" + +Rex barked louder and louder. He jumped on the wolf and bit his tail. The wolf yelped and ran away. He was afraid of Rex. + +Lila and Ben hugged Rex and thanked him. They were safe and happy. They went back to their house with Rex. They gave him a big bone and a warm blanket. They told their mom and dad what happened. They were proud of Rex. + +The end. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big tree with a ladder that they could climb up and down. They felt happy and brave when they were on the ladder. + +One day, they saw a bird with a long neck and bright feathers on the tree. They wanted to get closer to the bird, so they climbed up the ladder. But the bird was scared and flew away. Anna and Ben felt sad and wanted to follow the bird. + +They climbed higher and higher on the ladder, until they reached the top of the tree. They looked around, but they could not see the bird. They only saw the sky and the clouds. They felt scared and lonely. They wanted to go back down, but the ladder was too long and steep. They did not know what to do. + +They started to cry and call for help. Their mom heard them and came to the garden. She saw them on the tree and felt worried. She said, "Anna, Ben, don't cry. I'm here to help you. You are safe and loved. Hold on to the ladder and I will get you down." + +She got another ladder and put it next to the tree. She climbed up and reached Anna and Ben. She hugged them and comforted them. She said, "It's okay, my darlings. You are brave and smart. But you have to be careful and listen to me. The ladder is not a toy. It is a tool. You can only use it when I'm with you. And you can't chase the bird. The bird is free and wild. You can only watch it and admire it. Do you understand?" + +Anna and Ben nodded and said, "Yes, mom. We're sorry. We understand. We love you." They smiled and hugged their mom. They climbed down the ladder with her and went back to the house. They learned their lesson and never climbed the ladder without their mom again. They also learned to respect the bird and enjoy its beauty from afar. +Tom was a hero. He liked to help people and animals. He had a big red cape and a shiny sword. He cut bad things with his sword, like thorns and ropes and cans. + +One day, he saw a cat stuck in a tree. The cat was scared and lonely. It meowed very loud. Tom wanted to help the cat. He ran to the tree and climbed up. He cut the branch that held the cat with his sword. The cat was free and happy. It jumped into Tom's arms and licked his face. + +"Thank you, hero!" the cat said. "You are very brave and kind. Can I be your friend?" + +Tom smiled and hugged the cat. He was happy too. He had a new friend. He was not lonely anymore. + +He took the cat home and gave it some milk and fish. He named the cat Cutie, because it was cute and he cut it free. They played and napped together. They were the best friends ever. Tom was a hero and Cutie was his sidekick. They had many adventures and fun. They were never lonely again. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant seeds and water them. They hoped to see flowers grow soon. But there was a problem. A naughty squirrel liked to dig up their seeds and eat them. Tom and Lily were very frustrated. + +One day, they saw the squirrel again. It was digging near their tulip bulbs. Tom and Lily ran to chase it away. But the squirrel was fast and clever. It ran up a tree and laughed at them. + +"Go away, squirrel!" Tom shouted. "You are a bad, bad squirrel!" + +"Ha ha ha!" the squirrel said. "You can't catch me! I like your bulbs. They are yummy!" + +Tom and Lily were very angry. They wanted to teach the squirrel a lesson. They had an idea. They found some pine cones and put them in a basket. They covered them with dirt and leaves. They made them look like bulbs. Then they put the basket near the tree. + +"Look, squirrel!" Lily called. "We have more bulbs for you! Come and get them!" + +The squirrel was curious. It smelled the basket. It thought it smelled like bulbs. It jumped down from the tree and ran to the basket. It dug up a pine cone and bit it. + +"Ow!" the squirrel cried. "This is not a bulb! This is a pine cone! It is hard and prickly! It pinched my mouth!" + +Tom and Lily laughed. They had tricked the squirrel. The squirrel was very embarrassed. It dropped the pine cone and ran away. + +"Bye bye, squirrel!" Tom and Lily said. "Don't come back!" + +Tom and Lily were happy. They had saved their bulbs. They hoped to see their tulips bloom soon. They hugged each other and went back to their play. +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a spray bottle and a belt. They liked to spray water on the flowers and the grass. They also liked to spray water on each other and laugh. + +But then Ben had a bad idea. He saw a bee on a flower. He wanted to spray the bee with water. He thought it would be funny. He did not know that bees do not like water. He did not know that bees can sting. + +He took the spray bottle and aimed at the bee. He pressed the button and sprayed water on the bee. The bee was angry. It flew at Ben and stung him on the arm. Ben cried out in pain. He dropped the spray bottle and the belt. He ran to his mom. + +Lily felt sorry for Ben. She picked up the spray bottle and the belt. She followed Ben to his mom. She said, "I am sorry, Ben. I hope you are fine. It was not nice to spray the bee. Bees are good. They make honey. They help the flowers grow. We should be kind to them." + +Ben's mom hugged him and put some ice on his arm. She said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. Ben, you learned a lesson today. You should not spray water on bees or any other animals. They have feelings too. They can get hurt or angry. You should respect them and their homes. Do you understand?" + +Ben nodded. He said, "I understand, mom. I am sorry, Lily. I am sorry, bee. I will not spray water on you again. I will be kind to you. Can we still be friends?" + +Lily smiled. She said, "Yes, we can still be friends. And maybe the bee will forgive you too. Come on, let's go back to the garden. We can play with the spray bottle and the belt. But only on the flowers and the grass. And on each other. That is fun." + +Ben smiled too. He said, "OK, let's go. And thank you, mom. You are the best." + +The end. +Lisa and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. There is a big swing in the park. Lisa and Ben take turns on the swing. They push each other and laugh. + +One day, a new boy comes to the park. He wears a shiny coat and a hat. He has a big toy car. He looks wealthy. He sees Lisa and Ben on the swing. He wants the swing for himself. + +"Hey, you two, get off the swing!" he says. "It's mine now!" + +Lisa and Ben are surprised. They don't know the new boy. They don't want to give up the swing. + +"No, it's not yours," Lisa says. "We were here first. You can wait your turn." + +The new boy gets angry. He runs to the swing and tries to pull Lisa off. Lisa holds on tight. She shakes her head. "No, no, no!" she says. + +Ben gets off the swing and helps Lisa. He pushes the new boy away. "Stop it, stop it, stop it!" he says. + +The new boy falls to the ground. He cries. He picks up his toy car and runs away. He doesn't say sorry. + +Lisa and Ben look at each other. They hug. They are still friends. They go back to the swing. They push each other and laugh. They are happy. +Sara and Ben love to bake with Mom. They like to mix the flour, the eggs, the sugar and the butter in a big bowl. They like to roll the dough and cut out shapes with the cookie cutters. They like to put the cookies in the oven and wait for them to turn golden and yummy. + +But one day, Mom has to go to the store and leaves Sara and Ben alone in the kitchen. She tells them not to touch the oven or the cookies. She says she will be back soon. Sara and Ben nod and say okay. + +But as soon as Mom is gone, Sara and Ben get curious. They want to see the cookies. They want to smell them. They want to taste them. They climb on a chair and open the oven door. They see the cookies, but they are too hot to touch. They try to use a spatula, but they drop it on the floor. They try to use a towel, but they burn their fingers. They cry and scream. + +Mom hears them and runs back to the kitchen. She sees the mess and the smoke and the tears. She is angry and scared. She turns off the oven and takes out the cookies. She puts them on a rack to cool. She hugs Sara and Ben and tells them they are naughty and silly. She tells them they could have hurt themselves or started a fire. She tells them they have to clean up the kitchen and the floor and the spatula and the towel. She tells them they have to wash their hands and their faces and their clothes. She tells them they are filthy and sticky and smelly. + +Sara and Ben are sorry and sad. They say they are sorry and they love Mom. They help Mom clean up the kitchen and the floor and the spatula and the towel. They wash their hands and their faces and their clothes. They are still filthy and sticky and smelly, but they are also hungry and tired. Mom says they can have one cookie each, but only after they take a bath and a nap. Sara and Ben agree and follow Mom to the bathroom. They hope the cookies will still be good when they wake up. They hope Mom will still love them and bake with them again. They hope they will never make such a big and bad mistake again. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new path in the park. It is brown and twisty. They want to see where it goes. + +"Let's go on the path," Lily says. + +"OK, but we have to keep together," Tom says. + +They hold hands and walk on the path. They see flowers and birds and bugs. They are happy. But then, the path goes into the woods. It is dark and scary. + +"I don't like the woods," Lily says. + +"Me neither," Tom says. "Let's go back." + +But they don't know how to go back. They are lost. They are sad and scared. + +"Help! Help!" they shout. + +A man hears them. He is a park ranger. He is helpful. He has a hat and a badge and a walkie-talkie. He comes to them. + +"Are you OK?" he asks. + +"No, we are lost," Lily says. + +"We followed the path, but we don't know how to go back," Tom says. + +"Don't worry, I will help you," the park ranger says. "The path is new. It is for people who like to hike. But it is not for little kids. You have to be careful in the park. You have to stay on the paths you know." + +He takes their hands and leads them back to the park. He shows them the way. He is kind and friendly. + +"Thank you, thank you," Lily and Tom say. + +"You're welcome, you're welcome," the park ranger says. "Now, go and play. But remember, keep together and stay on the paths you know." + +Lily and Tom nod. They hug the park ranger. Then they run to the swings. They are happy again. They have learned a lesson. They have made a new friend. +Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to go out with Mom and Dad. One day, they went to a restaurant. It was a small restaurant with many people. Lily and Ben had to sit close together. + +Lily wanted to eat pizza. Ben wanted to eat pasta. They waited for their food. They were bored. Lily saw a picture on the wall. It was a picture of a dog. Lily liked dogs. She pointed at the picture and said, "Look, Ben, a dog!" + +Ben looked at the picture. He did not like dogs. He liked cats. He said, "No, Lily, a cat!" He pointed at another picture. It was a picture of a cat. Ben liked cats. He said, "Look, Lily, a cat!" + +Lily and Ben started to argue. They said, "Dog!" and "Cat!" louder and louder. They poked each other with their fingers. They made faces. They did not listen to Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad were angry. They said, "Stop, Lily and Ben! Be quiet! Be nice!" + +Lily and Ben did not stop. They did not be quiet. They did not be nice. They made more noise. They poked harder. They made worse faces. The people in the restaurant looked at them. They were annoyed. They said, "Shh!" and "Hush!" and "Enough!" + +Lily and Ben did not care. They did not like the people. They did not like the restaurant. They did not like each other. They only liked to poke and argue. They thought it was fun. They did not know they were being rude. They did not know they were making trouble. They did not know they were missing their food. +Lila and Tom were friends who liked to play with toys. Lila had a silver car that she loved very much. She liked to make it zoom and beep on the floor. Tom did not have a silver car. He had a red truck that was big and loud. + +One day, Lila and Tom were playing in Lila's room. Lila showed Tom her silver car and said, "Look at my car. It is shiny and fast. I own it. It is mine." + +Tom looked at the silver car and felt envious. He wanted to have a silver car too. He said, "Can I play with your car? Please, Lila, let me have a turn." + +Lila shook her head and said, "No, Tom, you cannot play with my car. It is mine. You have your truck. Play with your truck." + +Tom felt angry and sad. He said, "That is not fair, Lila. You are not a good friend. You are selfish. You do not share." + +He grabbed the silver car from Lila's hand and ran out of the room. Lila cried and chased after him. She shouted, "Tom, give me back my car. That is not nice. That is not yours." + +They ran down the stairs and into the garden. They bumped into Lila's mom, who saw what was happening. She said, "Stop, Lila and Tom. What is going on? Why are you fighting?" + +Lila and Tom told her what happened. Lila's mom said, "Lila, you should share your toys with your friend. It is good to be generous and kind. Tom, you should not take things that are not yours. It is bad to be greedy and rude. You should say sorry to each other and make up." + +Lila and Tom felt ashamed and sorry. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They decided to share their toys and play together nicely. Lila's mom smiled and said, "That is better. Now you are good friends again. You can both enjoy the silver car and the red truck." +Lisa loved to bake with her mom. They made cakes, cookies, pies and bread. Lisa liked to mix, pour, roll and cut the dough. She also liked to lick the spoon and the bowl. Baking was a luxury for Lisa, because she did not have many toys or books. + +One day, Lisa and her mom baked a tall cake for Lisa's birthday. It had four layers, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and lemon. It also had cream, sprinkles and candles on top. Lisa was very happy and proud of the cake. She wanted to show it to her friends. + +But when Lisa and her mom went to the park, they saw a boy who was crying. He had no cake, no presents, no friends. He was very sad and lonely.

Lisa and her mom said yes, of course. + +Lisa, her mom and the boy ate the cake together. They also played, laughed and talked. Lisa was very happy and proud of herself. She learned that baking was a luxury, but sharing was a joy. She also learned that being kind and generous was better than being tall and rich. She had the best birthday ever. +Lily and Max were playing with a big red ball in the park. They liked to bounce the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they bounced the ball very high and ran after it. + +"Let's play a game," said Lily. "I will tell you a task and you have to do it with the ball. If you do it, you get a point. If you don't, I get a point. OK?" + +Max nodded. He liked games. He hoped Lily would not be too bossy. + +"OK, first task," said Lily. "Bounce the ball three times and then kick it to me." + +Max bounced the ball three times and then kicked it to Lily. She caught it and smiled. + +"Good job, Max. You get a point. Now it's my turn. Give me a task." + +Max thought for a moment. He wanted to make it fun. + +"Bounce the ball on your head and then throw it to me," he said. + +Lily looked at him. She thought that was a silly task. But she tried to do it. She bounced the ball on her head once, twice, but then it fell off and rolled away. + +"Oops, I can't do it," she said. "You get a point, Max. That was a hard task." + +Max ran to get the ball. He was happy. He liked to make Lily laugh. + +"Let's do another task," he said. "This time, let's bounce the ball together and see how many times we can do it." + +Lily agreed. She liked to bounce the ball with Max. They bounced the ball together and counted. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. They bounced the ball ten times and then hugged. + +"We did it, Max. We are good at bouncing the ball," she said. + +"Yes, we are, Lily. And we are good at playing games," he said. + +They smiled and bounced the ball some more. They had fun in the park. +Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They had many toys and books, but they liked to make their own games. They pretended that the carpet was a big lake, and they used pillows and blankets to make boats and islands. They had a lot of fun, but they also made a lot of mess. + +"Look, Lily, I found a treasure!" Tom said, holding a shiny necklace that belonged to their mom. He had taken it from her dresser without asking. + +"Wow, it's so pretty!" Lily said, admiring the necklace. "Can I wear it?" + +"Sure, but be careful. Don't break it or lose it. Mom will be very angry if she finds out," Tom said, putting the necklace around Lily's neck. + +Lily felt very happy and proud. She pretended that she was a princess, and Tom was her prince. They danced and sang on the carpet, until they heard the door open. It was their mom, coming home from work. + +"Hi, kids, I'm home!" Mom said, smiling. "What are you doing?" + +Tom and Lily stopped dancing and looked at each other. They felt very scared. They knew they had done something bad. + +"Hi, Mom," Tom said, trying to sound normal. "We were just playing." + +Mom looked at the living room and saw the mess. She saw the pillows, the blankets, the toys, and the books. She also saw the necklace around Lily's neck. She recognized it as her own. She felt very angry and sad. + +"Lily, what is that on your neck?" Mom asked, in a stern voice. + +Lily touched the necklace and felt very guilty. She wanted to hide it, but it was too late. + +"It's a treasure, Mom," Lily said, in a low voice. + +"A treasure? Where did you get it?" Mom asked, getting closer. + +Tom felt very sorry for Lily. He knew it was his fault. He decided to tell the truth. + +"Mom, I'm sorry. I took it from your dresser. I wanted to play with it. I didn't mean to hurt you," Tom said, in a brave voice. + +Mom looked at Tom and saw that he was telling the truth. She also saw that he was sorry. She felt less angry, but still sad. + +"Tom, you know you shouldn't take things that don't belong to you. Especially things that are important to me. This necklace was a gift from your dad. He gave it to me on our anniversary. It means a lot to me. How would you feel if I took something that you love and gave it to someone else?" Mom asked, in a gentle voice. + +Tom thought about his favorite toy, a red car that his dad had given him. He loved that car very much. He would feel very sad and angry if someone took it from him. + +"I would feel very bad, Mom. I would feel very sad and angry," Tom said, in a honest voice. + +Mom nodded and smiled. She was glad that Tom understood. + +"That's how I feel, Tom. I feel very bad, very sad, and very angry. But I also love you very much. And I know you love me too. And I know you made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. But you have to learn from your mistakes. You have to say sorry, and you have to make things right. Do you understand?" Mom asked, in a loving voice. + +Tom nodded and smiled. He felt very relieved and grateful. + +"I understand, Mom. I'm sorry. I love you too. How can I make things right?" Tom asked, in a eager voice. + +Mom hugged Tom and kissed him. She was proud of him. + +"You can make things right by giving me back the necklace, and by helping me clean up the mess. And by never taking things that don't belong to you again. And by being nice to your sister. She didn't know any better. She was just following you. She loves you too. Do you understand?" Mom asked, in a hopeful voice. + +Tom nodded and smiled. He felt very happy and proud. + +"I understand, Mom. I will do all that. I will give you back the necklace, and I will help you clean up the mess. And I will never take things that don't belong to me again. And I will be nice to Lily. She is my sister. I love her too," Tom said, in a cheerful voice. + +Mom smiled and hugged Tom and Lily. She was happy and proud. + +"Thank you, Tom. Thank you, Lily. You are my treasures. I love you both very much. Now, let's clean up the mess, and then we can have some cookies and milk. How does that sound?" Mom asked, in a joyful voice. + +Tom and Lily smiled and hugged Mom. They felt very happy and +Lily and Max were twins who liked to go to the cabin with their mom and dad. The cabin was in the woods, where they could see animals and play outside. But Lily and Max were very different. Lily was shy and liked to read books and draw pictures. Max was loud and liked to run and jump and make noise. + +One day, they went to the cabin and it started to rain. Lily was happy because she could stay inside and read her favorite book. But Max was sad because he could not go outside and play. He started to complain to his mom and dad. + +"Mom, I'm bored! Dad, I'm bored! Can we go outside? Can we play a game? Can we watch TV?" he said. + +"No, Max, we can't go outside. It's raining too hard. And we don't have a TV here. We came to the cabin to enjoy nature and relax. Why don't you read a book or draw a picture like Lily?" his mom said. + +"But I don't like books or pictures. They are boring. I want to do something fun!" Max said. + +Lily heard Max complain and felt sorry for him. She was shy, but she wanted to help her brother. She put down her book and went to Max. + +"Max, do you want to play with me?" she asked. + +"Play what?" Max asked. + +"We can play pretend. We can pretend that the cabin is a castle and we are the king and the queen. Or we can pretend that the cabin is a spaceship and we are the astronauts. Or we can pretend that the cabin is a zoo and we are the animals. What do you think?" Lily asked. + +Max thought for a moment. He liked to pretend. He liked to be the king, the astronaut, or the animal. He smiled at Lily. + +"OK, Lily, let's play pretend. That sounds fun. Thank you for asking me," he said. + +Lily and Max played pretend for a long time. They had fun and forgot about the rain. Their mom and dad watched them and smiled. They were proud of Lily for being kind and brave. They were proud of Max for being flexible and grateful. They learned that sometimes, the best thing to do when it rains is to use your imagination and play with your sibling. +Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They had a lot of fun. + +But then Lily tripped and fell. She hurt her leg. It was red and sore. She cried and cried. + +Tom ran to her and said, "Don't cry, Lily. I will help you. We can rest on the bench. I will get some water for your leg." + +He helped her to the bench and went to the fountain. He filled his bottle with water and came back. + +But when he came back, he saw a big dog. The dog was smelly and mean. It saw Lily and barked. It wanted to bite her. + +Lily was scared. She screamed and tried to get away. But her leg was too hurt. She could not run. + +Tom threw his bottle at the dog. He shouted, "Go away, dog! Leave Lily alone!" + +But the dog did not go away. It jumped on the bench and bit Lily. Lily cried louder and louder. + +Tom ran to get help. But it was too late. The dog had hurt Lily badly. She was bleeding and pale. She stopped crying. + +Tom was sad. He wished he had not left Lily alone. He wished the dog had not come. He wished he could play with Lily again. But he could not. Lily was gone. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They share their toys and help each other. They are honest friends. They do not lie or take things that are not theirs. + +One day, Anna has a new doll. She loves her doll very much. She shows it to Ben. Ben likes the doll too. He asks Anna if he can hold it. Anna says yes. She gives the doll to Ben. Ben is happy. He says thank you. + +But then, a big boy comes. He sees the doll. He wants the doll. He grabs the doll from Ben. He runs away. Ben is sad. He cries. Anna is angry. She runs after the big boy. She shouts at him. She says, "Give back the doll! It is not yours! It is Anna's! She loves it!" + +The big boy is scared. He sees a grown-up. The grown-up is Anna's mom. She hears Anna. She sees the doll. She knows the doll is Anna's. She tells the big boy to stop. She takes the doll from him. She gives it back to Anna. She says, "I am proud of you, Anna. You are brave and honest. You stand up for your friend and your toy." + +Anna hugs her mom. She hugs her doll. She goes back to Ben. She says, "I am sorry, Ben. The big boy was mean. He took the doll. Are you okay?" Ben nods. He smiles. He says, "I am okay, Anna. You are a good friend. You get the doll back. You are kind and honest. I love you." Anna smiles. She says, "I love you too, Ben. You are a good friend too. You share and care. Do you want to play with the doll again?" Ben says yes. They play with the doll. They are happy. They are honest friends. They love each other. +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big slide that looked very fun. Ben wanted to go on the slide, but Lily was scared. + +"Come on, Lily, let's try the slide. It's not scary, it's fun!" Ben said. + +"No, Ben, it's too high and too fast. I don't want to try the slide. I want to play on the swings." Lily said. + +Ben was sad. He wanted to play with his sister, but he also wanted to try the slide. He thought of an idea. + +"Lily, if you try the slide with me, I will give you a treat. I have a cookie in my pocket. You can have it if you try the slide." Ben said. + +Lily loved cookies. She looked at the slide and then at the cookie. She wanted the treat, but she was still scared. + +"OK, Ben, I will try the slide with you, but you have to hold my hand and be careful." Lily said. + +Ben was happy. He took Lily's hand and they climbed up the stairs to the top of the slide. They sat down on the slide and held each other tight. + +"Ready, Lily? Here we go!" Ben said. + +They slid down the slide together, feeling the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They laughed and screamed as they reached the bottom of the slide. They felt proud and happy. + +"That was fun, Ben! Thank you for helping me try the slide. You are a good brother." Lily said. + +"You are welcome, Lily. Thank you for trying the slide with me. You are a brave sister. Here is your treat. You deserve it." Ben said. + +He gave Lily the cookie and they hugged. They shared the cookie and enjoyed the treat. They learned that trying new things can be fun and rewarding, especially with someone you love. +One day, Lily and Ben were playing in the bathroom. They liked to splash water on each other and make bubbles with the soap. Lily turned on the faucet and filled the sink with water. She saw something shiny in the water and reached for it. + +"Look, Ben, I found a coin!" she said, holding up a silver quarter. + +"Wow, where did it come from?" Ben asked, curious. + +"I don't know, maybe someone left it here," Lily said. + +She put the coin in her pocket and turned off the faucet. She and Ben dried their hands and faces with a towel and went to the door. But when they opened the door, they saw something strange. + +A big, fluffy rabbit was sitting on the floor, looking at them with bright eyes. It had a red bow around its neck and a basket full of eggs and candy. + +"Hello, Lily and Ben," the rabbit said. "I'm the Easter Bunny. I came to bring you some treats." + +Lily and Ben were very surprised. They had never seen a talking rabbit before. They wondered how it got into their house and why it knew their names. + +"Hi, Mr. Bunny," Lily said. "How did you appear here?" + +"I have a magic key that lets me enter any house where children live," the rabbit said. "And I know your names because I have a list of all the good boys and girls who deserve some Easter fun." + +"Wow, that's amazing," Ben said. "Can we have some of the eggs and candy?" + +"Of course, you can," the rabbit said. "But first, you have to find them. I hid them all over your house. Can you find them?" + +Lily and Ben nodded, excited. They loved to play hide and seek. They thanked the rabbit and ran to look for the eggs and candy. The rabbit smiled and followed them, hopping along. + +They had a wonderful time finding the colorful eggs and the sweet candy. They also found some toys and stickers and books. They shared their treats with each other and with the rabbit. They thanked the rabbit again and gave him a hug. + +The rabbit said goodbye and told them to be good and happy. He gave them his magic key and told them to keep it safe. He said he would come back next year with more surprises. He disappeared through the door, leaving behind a trail of glitter. + +Lily and Ben looked at each other, amazed. They had just met the Easter Bunny. They wondered if anyone would believe them. They decided to keep it a secret, just between them and the rabbit. They put the key in a special box and hid it under their bed. They ate some more candy and went to play with their toys. They were very happy. They had had the best Easter ever. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but they wanted more. They saw a big sign that said "Sell your old toys and get new ones!" They thought this was a good idea. They took their old toys and went to the big store. + +The store was very big and had many floors. They had to use the elevator to go up and down. The elevator was smelly and noisy. It made them feel sick. They did not like the elevator. They sold their old toys and got some money. They used the money to buy new toys. They were happy. + +But when they got home, they realized they had made a mistake. They missed their old toys. They had given away their favorite teddy bear, their soft blanket, their colorful blocks, and their funny puppet. They felt sad and sorry. They wished they had not sold their old toys. They learned that new things are not always better than old things. They learned to be happy with what they have. They hugged each other and cried. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. Sometimes they share, and sometimes they fight. + +One day, Anna sees a white chair in the corner. She thinks it is very pretty and soft. She wants to sit on it and read her book. She walks to the chair and puts her book on it. + +But Ben sees her and runs to the chair too. He says, "No, Anna, that is my chair! I want to sit on it and play with my car!" + +Anna says, "No, Ben, that is my chair! I saw it first and I have my book on it!" + +They both pull the chair and try to sit on it. They make a lot of noise and the chair wobbles. + +Their mom hears them and comes to the living room. She sees them fighting over the chair and says, "Stop, Anna and Ben! That is not your chair! That is grandma's chair! She is coming to visit us today and she needs a place to sit. You have to be nice and let her use the chair." + +Anna and Ben look at their mom and feel sorry. They love their grandma and they want to make her happy. They let go of the chair and say, "Sorry, mom. We didn't know it was grandma's chair." + +Their mom smiles and says, "It's okay, Anna and Ben. I know you like the chair, but you have to share and take turns. Why don't you play with your toys on the floor or on the couch? And when grandma comes, you can give her a big hug and show her your toys." + +Anna and Ben nod and say, "Okay, mom. We will play nicely and wait for grandma." + +They pick up their toys and move to the floor and the couch. They play together and have fun. They also urge each other to be quiet and listen for grandma's knock on the door. They can't wait to see her and sit with her on the white chair. +Lily had a lot of toys. She had dolls, cars, books, puzzles, and more. She liked to play with them all, but she always wanted more. She was a spoiled girl. + +One day, her mom took her to the store. Lily saw a big teddy bear. She wanted it very much. She asked her mom to buy it for her. Her mom said no. She said Lily had enough toys, and she had to save money for other things. Lily was very angry. She cried and screamed. She threw a tantrum. + +Her mom was very sad. She said Lily was not being nice. She said Lily had to learn to be happy with what she had. She said Lily had to share her toys with other kids who had less. She said Lily had to own her mistakes and say sorry. She said Lily had to be good for a week, or she would take away some of her toys. + +Lily did not like that. She did not want to share or say sorry or be good. She wanted the teddy bear. But she also did not want to lose her toys. She did not know what to do. She felt bad. + +She thought about it for a long time. She decided to try to be good. She said sorry to her mom. She said she would share her toys. She said she would be happy with what she had. She said she did not need the teddy bear. + +Her mom was very happy. She hugged Lily and said she was proud of her. She said Lily was growing up. She said Lily was a good girl. + +Lily felt good. She smiled and hugged her mom back. She said she loved her mom. She said she was sorry for being spoiled. She said she would try to be better. + +The end. +Tom and Ann were hungry. They wanted to eat soup. Mom made soup for them. She put the soup in two bowls. She said, "Be careful. The soup is hot. Do not spill it." + +Tom and Ann took the bowls. They went to the table. They wanted to sit down. But Tom tripped. He dropped his bowl. The soup scattered on the floor. It made a big mess. + +Mom heard the noise. She came to see. She was angry. She said, "Tom, what did you do? You wasted the soup. You made the floor dirty. You are naughty. Go to your room. No soup for you." + +Tom was sad. He said, "I'm sorry, Mom. It was an accident. I did not mean to scatter the soup. Please, can I have some soup?" + +Mom said, "No. You have to learn your lesson. You have to be careful. You have to be grateful. Some children have no soup. They are hungry. You are lucky. But you do not appreciate it. Go to your room. Now." + +Tom went to his room. He cried. He was hungry. He was sorry. He wished he had some soup. He wished Mom was not angry. He wished he was more careful. He wished he was more grateful. +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had a big box of toys in their room, with cars, dolls, blocks, and animals. One day, they found a new toy in the box. It was a navy boat, with a flag and a wheel and a horn. Ben and Lily wanted to play with the navy boat, but they did not know how. + +"Let's pretend we are sailors," Ben said. "We can sail the boat on the bed." + +"Okay," Lily said. "But who will be the captain?" + +"I will be the captain," Ben said. "You can be the mate. Come on, let's lay the boat on the bed." + +Ben and Lily lay the boat on the bed and climbed on it. Ben took the wheel and Lily took the horn. They made noises like the boat was moving on the water. + +"Beep beep! We are the navy!" Lily said. + +"Look out! There is a big wave!" Ben said. + +They rocked the boat back and forth, pretending it was going up and down on the wave. They had fun, until they heard a loud thump. The boat had fallen off the bed and hit the floor. Ben and Lily looked at the boat and saw that it was broken. The flag was torn, the wheel was loose, and the horn was cracked. + +"Oh no! We broke the boat!" Ben said. + +"What will we do?" Lily said. + +They were fearful that their mom would be angry with them for breaking the new toy. They did not want to get in trouble. They looked at each other and had an idea. + +"Let's hide the boat," Ben said. + +"Where?" Lily said. + +"Under the bed," Ben said. + +They quickly picked up the boat and lay it under the bed. They hoped their mom would not find it. They went back to playing with their other toys, but they felt bad about the boat. They wished they had been more careful with it. They wondered if they should tell their mom the truth. +Anna liked to be creative. She liked to draw, to sing, to dance, and to make things with her toys. One day, she decided to make a big castle with her blocks and pillows. She worked hard and used all her blocks and pillows. She was very proud of her castle. + +"Look, Mommy, look at my castle!" she said, showing her mom her creation. + +"Wow, Anna, that's a very creative castle! You did a great job!" her mom said, smiling. "But you know what? It's almost time for your nap. You need to rest after working so hard." + +Anna did not want to nap. She wanted to play more with her castle. She pouted and said, "No, Mommy, no nap. I want to play." + +Her mom was gentle but firm. She said, "I know you want to play, Anna, but napping is good for you. It helps you grow and learn and have more energy. How about this? You can nap in your castle. You can pretend you are a princess sleeping in her tower. And when you wake up, you can play some more. Doesn't that sound fun?" + +Anna thought about it. She liked to pretend. She liked to be a princess. She nodded and said, "Okay, Mommy, I will nap in my castle. But only for a little bit." + +Her mom hugged her and said, "That's a good girl. I'll be right here if you need me. Sweet dreams, my creative princess." + +Anna climbed into her castle and snuggled with her favorite teddy bear. She closed her eyes and imagined she was a princess in a fairy tale. She felt cozy and happy. She fell asleep in her chair, dreaming of her castle. +Ben and Lily liked to play hockey with their dad.

He had won the game. + +Ben and Lily jumped and screamed. They were so happy and proud. They had seen a great game and a great goal. They had seen a surprise.

He thinks she is a good friend. + +But then, Sam comes. Sam is not nice. He is mean and rude. He sees the ball and wants it. + +"Hey, give me that ball. It is mine now. You are stupid," Sam says. He grabs the ball from Mia and runs away. + +Mia and Tom are sad and angry. They want the ball back. They chase Sam. + +"Stop, Sam. That is not your ball. That is Tom's ball. He offered it to me. You are stupid," Mia says. + +Sam does not listen. He laughs and throws the ball in the air. He thinks he is smart and strong. + +But then, the ball falls down. It hits Sam on the head. It hurts. Sam cries. + +"Ow, ow, ow. That ball is bad. It is not a universe. It is a monster," Sam says. + +Mia and Tom reach Sam. They take the ball from him. They do not feel sorry for him. He deserves it. + +"See, Sam. That is what happens when you are mean and rude. You are not smart and strong. You are stupid. This is a universe ball. It is a good toy.

They have the ball back. They play with it again. They are good friends. They love the universe ball. +Tom and Sue were friends who liked to play together.

He loved dogs, and he gave me the mug to remember him by. Have you seen it?" + +Tom and Sue felt very bad. They knew they had done something wrong. They gave the mug back to the man and said they were sorry. + +But the man was not happy. He said they had been very naughty and selfish. He said they had to pay for what they had done. He said he would tell their parents and the police. He took the mug and left. + +Tom and Sue cried and hugged each other. They wished they had not taken the mug.

But one day, her mom said they had no tuna left. Lila was sad. + +"Can we go to the store and buy more tuna?" Lila asked. + +"Sorry, honey, the store is closed today.

She liked to look at them, touch them, and make shapes with them. She had one rock that was very rare. It was red and smooth and had a hole in it. She called it her lucky rock. + +One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and dad. She brought her lucky rock with her. She wanted to show it to her friends.

She ran to the boy and said sorry. She ran to the pond and looked for her lucky rock. She could not see it. It was gone. She lost her rare rock. She cried and cried. She felt very bad. She wished she had never brought her lucky rock to the park. She learned a hard lesson. She learned that rocks can hurt people. She learned that some things are better left at home. +Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big rock with a spot on it. The spot was red and shiny. + +"Look, a treasure!" Ben said. He ran to the rock and tried to pick it up. But the rock was too heavy for him. + +"Let me help you," Lily said. She joined Ben and they both pulled the rock. But the rock did not move. + +They heard a voice from behind the rock. "Hello, children. Do you want to see my treasure?" + +They turned around and saw a man with a thick beard and a hat. He smiled at them and showed them a bag. + +"This is my treasure," he said. "It is full of coins and jewels. Do you want some?" + +Ben and Lily were curious. They wanted to see the treasure. They followed the man to the other side of the rock. + +But when they got there, they saw that the bag was empty. The man had tricked them. He grabbed their toys and ran away. + +"Hey, give us back our toys!" Ben and Lily shouted. They chased the man, but he was too fast for them. + +They felt sad and angry. They had lost their toys and their trust. + +They went back to the rock and sat down. They hugged each other and cried. + +A lady saw them and came to them. She asked them what happened. They told her the story. + +The lady felt sorry for them. She said, "I'm sorry, children. That man was very bad. He lied to you and stole from you. You should not trust strangers who offer you things that are too good to be true. They might want to hurt you or take something from you. You should always stay with your friends or your family when you play. They will protect you and love you." + +Ben and Lily nodded. They learned a lesson. They thanked the lady and asked her to help them find their toys. + +The lady agreed. She took them to the park office and reported the man. The park staff helped them look for their toys. They found them in a trash can near the exit. The man had thrown them away. + +Ben and Lily were happy to get their toys back. They hugged the lady and the park staff. They said, "Thank you for helping us. You are very kind and good. We will be careful next time. We will not trust strangers. We will stay with our friends and our family." + +They went back to the rock and played with their toys. They forgot about the bad man and the empty bag. They had fun and laughed. + +They looked at the spot on the rock. It was not a treasure. It was just a spot. But they did not mind. They had something more valuable. They had each other. +Lily and Max are playing in the park. They have a big box and some paper. They pretend the box is a car and the paper is money. They drive around and buy things with their money. + +"Let's go to the shop and buy some food," says Lily. + +"OK, what do you want to eat?" asks Max. + +"I want a sandwich with cheese and ham," says Lily. + +"Me too, and some juice," says Max. + +They park their car near a bench and go to the shop. They give some paper to the shopkeeper and take a sandwich and a juice each. They sit on the bench and eat their lunch. + +"This sandwich is yummy," says Lily. + +"Mine too, but it is very big. I feel full," says Max. + +He puts down his sandwich and drinks his juice. He sees a bird on the ground. It looks weak and hungry. It has no feathers on its head. + +"Look, Lily, a bird. It is sad and weak. It needs some food," says Max. + +He picks up his sandwich and breaks a piece. He throws it to the bird. The bird hops closer and eats the piece. It looks happier and stronger. + +"Good job, Max. You are kind and generous. You helped the bird," says Lily. + +She smiles and gives him a hug. They watch the bird fly away. They are happy and proud. They finish their lunch and play some more. They have a fun day. +Lily was restless. She could not sleep. She was too excited. Tomorrow was her birthday. She wanted to see her cake and her presents and her friends. She wanted to play games and sing songs and blow candles. She wanted to have fun. + +She tried to close her eyes and think of nice things. She thought of her teddy bear and her doll and her book. She thought of her mommy and her daddy and her brother. She thought of the sun and the moon and the stars. But she still could not sleep. + +She got up from her bed and walked to the door. She wanted to see if mommy and daddy were still awake. Maybe they could read her a story or sing her a lullaby. Maybe they could cuddle her and kiss her and tell her they loved her. + +She opened the door and peeked outside. She saw a light in the living room. She heard some noises. She smelled something sweet. She was curious. She tiptoed to the living room and looked inside. + +She saw mommy and daddy and brother. They were busy. They were making her cake and wrapping her presents and decorating the room. They had balloons and streamers and banners. They had a big sign that said "Happy Birthday Lily". They looked happy and tired. + +They saw Lily and smiled. They said "Surprise!" They said "We love you!" They said "Come and help us!" Lily was surprised and happy and loved. She ran to them and hugged them. She helped them finish the cake and the presents and the decorations. She felt sleepy and cozy and warm. + +She managed to stay awake until everything was ready. Then mommy and daddy and brother carried her to her bed. They tucked her in and kissed her goodnight. They said "Sweet dreams!" They said "See you in the morning!" They said "Happy birthday Lily!" Lily smiled and closed her eyes. She fell asleep. She dreamed of her cake and her presents and her friends. She dreamed of her birthday. She dreamed of having fun. +Anna loved her balloon. It was red and shiny and big. She got it from the fair with her mom and dad. She held it tight with a string so it would not fly away. + +One day, she took her balloon to the park. She wanted to play with her friend Ben. Ben had a ball. He threw it to Anna and she caught it. They had fun. + +But then, a big wind came. It blew very hard. Anna felt her balloon pull on the string. She tried to hold it, but it was too strong. The string slipped from her hand. The balloon flew up in the air. + +Anna was sad. She cried. She wanted her balloon back. Ben saw her cry. He felt sorry for her. He gave her his ball. He said, "Here, you can have my ball. It is yours now. I am your friend. I am loyal to you." + +Anna smiled. She hugged Ben. She said, "Thank you, Ben. You are very kind. You are my friend. You are loyal to me too." + +She looked at the ball. It was blue and bouncy and round. She liked it. She said, "Let's play with the ball. It is fun." + +Ben nodded. He said, "OK, let's play. But first, let's measure the ball. How big is it?" + +They found a stick. They put it next to the ball. They saw the ball was bigger than the stick. They laughed. They said, "The ball is big. The stick is small." + +They threw the ball to each other. They ran and jumped and laughed. They forgot about the balloon. They were happy. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big pond with many ducks and fish. They wanted to feed them some bread. + +"Look, Lily, there is a crocodile in the pond!" Ben said, pointing to a long green thing in the water. + +"No, Ben, that is not a crocodile. That is a log. Crocodiles are scary and have big teeth. Logs are not scary and have no teeth." Lily said. + +They went closer to the pond and threw some bread to the ducks and fish. The log did not move. + +"See, Ben, it is a log. It does not eat bread. It just rots in the water." Lily said. + +But then, the log opened its mouth and snapped at a duck. The duck flew away, quacking loudly. The log was a crocodile! + +"Ah, Lily, it is a crocodile! It is a crocodile!" Ben shouted, running away from the pond. + +Lily was scared too, but she was also curious. She stayed a little longer and looked at the crocodile. + +"It is a crocodile, but it is also attractive. It has a shiny skin and a long tail. It is a clever crocodile. It pretends to be a log to catch food." Lily said. + +She wanted to touch the crocodile, but she knew it was dangerous. She decided to leave some bread for the crocodile, as a gift. + +"Goodbye, crocodile. You are attractive, but you are also scary. Maybe we can be friends, but only from far away." Lily said. + +She ran after Ben and they went home. They told their mom about the crocodile in the pond. Their mom did not believe them, but they knew it was true. They had seen the attractive crocodile. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play together at the park. One day, Lily's mom says they have to move to a new house. Lily is sad. She does not want to leave Tom. + +"Mom, why do we have to go?" Lily asks. + +"Because dad has a new job, sweetie. He works with automobiles. You know, the big machines that go on the road," mom says. + +"But I will miss Tom. He is my best friend. Can he come with us?" Lily says. + +"I'm sorry, honey, but he can't. He has his own family and house here. But you can call him and write to him. And maybe we can visit him someday," mom says. + +Lily hugs mom and cries. She feels terrible. She does not like automobiles. She likes Tom. + +The next day, Lily and Tom say goodbye at the park. They hug and give each other a toy. Lily gives Tom her teddy bear. Tom gives Lily his truck. + +"I will miss you, Lily. You are my best friend. Don't forget me," Tom says. + +"I will miss you, Tom. You are my best friend. I will always remember you," Lily says. + +They wave as Lily's mom drives away in their automobile. Lily looks out the window and sees Tom waving back. She hopes they will see each other again. She hopes he will like her teddy bear. She hopes she will like her new house. But she knows she will miss him terribly. +Anna liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wore a pink apron with flowers on it. Mom wore a blue apron with dots on it. They were making cookies for dad. Anna helped mom put flour, sugar, butter, and eggs in a big bowl. She stirred with a wooden spoon. Mom smiled and said, "You are a good helper, Anna." + +Mom put the bowl on the table and took out a rolling pin. She rolled the dough flat and cut out shapes with cookie cutters. Anna liked the star and the heart shapes best. She put them on a baking sheet. Mom said, "Be careful, Anna. The oven is very hot. You have to stay away from it. It can hurt you. I will put the cookies in and take them out. You can watch from here. It is safe." + +Anna nodded and stayed on her chair. She watched mom open the oven and slide the baking sheet inside. She smelled the cookies baking. They smelled yummy. She waited for them to be done. Mom set a timer and said, "When it rings, the cookies are ready. Then we can let them cool and decorate them with icing and sprinkles. Won't dad be happy when he comes home?" + +Anna clapped her hands and said, "Yes, mom. He will love them. And he will love us. We are a good team, mom." Mom hugged her and said, "Yes, we are, Anna. I love you very much. You are my sweet cookie." Anna giggled and said, "I love you too, mom. You are my best mom." They smiled and waited for the timer to ring. +Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with trains. They have a big network of tracks and bridges in the living room. They make sounds like choo-choo and beep-beep. + +One day, they see a wet cat outside the window. The cat is on a tree. It looks scared and cold. Tim and Sam want to help the cat. They run to the door and put on their coats and boots. + +"Mom, can we go outside?" Tim asks. + +"Sure, but be careful. It's raining," Mom says. + +Tim and Sam go outside. They see the cat on the tree. It meows loudly. + +"Hello, cat. Don't be afraid. We will rescue you," Sam says. + +But the tree is too high. Tim and Sam cannot reach the cat. They look around. They see their network of tracks and bridges. They have an idea. + +They bring some tracks and bridges outside. They make a ramp from the ground to the tree. They take a train and a wagon. They put a blanket and a toy mouse in the wagon. + +"Come on, cat. Jump in the wagon. We will take you inside," Tim says. + +The cat sees the wagon. It sees the blanket and the toy mouse. It likes them. It jumps in the wagon. Tim and Sam push the train and the wagon down the ramp. They go inside the house. + +"Mom, look. We rescued a cat," Tim says. + +"Wow, you did. You are very brave and kind," Mom says. + +She takes the cat and wraps it in a towel. She gives it some milk and food. The cat purrs and snuggles with Tim and Sam. + +They play with the cat and the trains. They are happy. They have a new friend. +Ben and Lily were youths who liked to joke a lot. They thought it was fun to make others laugh or feel silly. One day, they saw a big dog in the park. The dog was black and had a powerful bark. Ben and Lily wanted to joke with the dog, so they threw a stick at it and ran away. + +The dog did not like the joke. It felt angry and hurt. It chased Ben and Lily across the park, barking louder and louder. Ben and Lily were scared and tried to hide behind a tree. But the dog was faster and smarter. It found them and bit them hard. + +Ben and Lily cried and screamed. They had blood on their legs and arms. They wished they had not joked with the dog. They wished they had been nice and gentle. A man came and helped them. He took them to the doctor. The doctor gave them shots and bandages. He said they had to be careful with dogs. He said some dogs were not friendly and could hurt them. + +Ben and Lily learned a lesson. They decided not to joke with animals anymore. They decided to be kind and respectful. They hoped the dog would forgive them. They hoped they would heal soon. They were sorry for their bad joke. +Lily and Ben were at the park with their mom. They saw a man selling balloons of many colors. Lily wanted a pink balloon and Ben wanted a blue one. Mom gave them some money and they ran to the man. + +"Can we have a balloon, please?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, here you go. One pink and one blue. Enjoy!" the man said. + +Lily and Ben thanked the man and held their balloons. They were very happy. They played with their balloons, making them go up and down and side to side. + +But then, a big dog came running towards them. It was brown and hairy and had a long tongue. It barked loudly and jumped on them. It wanted to play too. + +"Go away, dog! You are scaring us!" Ben shouted. + +The dog did not listen. It bit Ben's balloon and popped it. Ben cried. The dog licked Lily's balloon and made it wet and disgusting. Lily cried too. + +"Mom, help!" they called. + +Mom heard them and came running. She shooed the dog away and hugged Lily and Ben. + +"I'm sorry, sweeties. The dog was naughty. He did not know how to play nice. Are you okay?" she asked. + +Lily and Ben nodded. They were still sad about their balloons, but they felt better with mom. + +"Can we have another balloon, mom?" Lily asked. + +"Maybe next time, honey. Let's go home and have some cookies. How does that sound?" mom said. + +Lily and Ben smiled. They liked cookies. They said goodbye to the man and the balloons and followed mom. They still owned their happiness. +Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with many leaves. Sam has an idea. + +"Let's climb the tree!" he says to Mia. "We can see high from there." + +Mia nods. She likes to climb. They hold hands and walk to the tree. They find a branch that is not too high and not too low. They help each other to get on the branch. They sit and look around. + +"Wow, it is so high!" Mia says. "I can see the birds and the clouds and the cars." + +Sam smiles. He sees something else. He sees a shiny thing on the branch. He reaches for it. It is sticky and soft. He pulls it off the branch. It is gum. + +"Look, Mia, I found gum!" he says. "Do you want some?" + +Mia shakes her head. She does not like gum. She thinks it is yucky. + +"No, thank you, Sam," she says. "I do not want gum. Gum is not good for your teeth." + +Sam shrugs. He likes gum. He puts it in his mouth and chews. He makes a big bubble. He blows and blows. The bubble gets bigger and bigger. It is as big as his head. + +"Look, Mia, I made a big bubble!" he says. "Do you like it?" + +Mia looks at the bubble. She thinks it is funny. She laughs. + +"Yes, Sam, I like it," she says. "But be careful. The bubble might pop." + +Sam does not hear her. He blows and blows. The bubble gets bigger and bigger. It is as big as the branch. It touches the leaves. It pops. + +"Pop!" goes the bubble. Gum goes everywhere. It sticks to Sam's face and hair and clothes. It sticks to Mia's face and hair and clothes. It sticks to the branch and the leaves and the birds. + +Sam and Mia are covered in gum. They look at each other. They are surprised. They are sticky. They are silly. They giggle. + +"Oops!" they say. "We need to get down." + +They get off the branch. They walk to the fountain. They wash the gum off. They dry themselves. They hug. + +"That was fun!" they say. "But next time, no gum." + +They go back to the park. They play some more. They are happy. They are friends. The end. +Anna loves her pet cat, Fluffy. She likes to hug him and play with him every day. But one day, Anna's friend Lily comes to visit. Lily likes Fluffy too, and she wants to borrow him for a while. She asks Anna, "Can I borrow your pet cat? I want to play with him in my room." + +Anna does not want to share Fluffy. She says, "No, you can't borrow him. He is my pet, not yours. He likes to stay with me." Lily gets angry and says, "That's not fair. You have to share your things with your friends. Let me borrow him, or I won't be your friend anymore." + +Anna and Lily start to argue. They pull Fluffy from each other, and Fluffy gets scared. He scratches them and runs away. Anna and Lily cry and chase after him. They look for him everywhere, but they can't find him. They are very sad and sorry. + +They see Fluffy hiding under a bush. He is shivering and cold. He does not like to be outside in the winter. Anna and Lily feel bad for Fluffy. They say, "We are sorry, Fluffy. We were mean to you. We won't fight over you anymore. We will be nice to you and each other." + +They gently pick up Fluffy and bring him inside. They wrap him in a warm blanket and give him some milk and treats.

They have a cold. + +"Mom, I don't want to stay in bed," Sara says. "I want to play with Ben." + +"Me too," Ben says. "I want to play with Sara." + +"I know, my loves, but you have to rest," Mom says. "You have to drink your juice and take your medicine. Then you will feel better." + +"But Mom, it is morning. The sun is shining. We can hear the birds. Can we go outside?" Sara asks. + +"Not today, my loves. You have to stay inside. You have to keep warm. You have to be careful. You don't want to make your cold worse," Mom says. + +"Can we read a book?" Ben asks. + +"Yes, you can read a book. I have a book for you. It is a book about an old bear. He lives in the woods. He has many friends. He has many adventures. Do you want to hear his story?" Mom asks. + +"Yes, Mom, we want to hear his story," Sara and Ben say. + +"Okay, then. Let me read you the book. It is called The Old Bear and His Friends. Listen carefully and enjoy," Mom says. + +She opens the book and begins to read. Sara and Ben snuggle in their bed. They look at the pictures.

They stay in bed. +Sara and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Sara had a big pot and Tom had a wooden spoon. They put some water, salt, and carrots in the pot and stirred it. + +"Look, we are making soup!" Sara said. "It will be delicious!" + +Tom nodded and smiled. He wanted to taste the soup, but it was too hot. He saw a knob on the stove and turned it. He thought it would make the fire smaller, but it made it bigger. The pot started to boil and bubble. + +"Oh no!" Tom said. "The soup is burning!" + +Sara saw the fire and got scared. She ran to the phone and called her mom. She told her what happened and asked for help. + +"Mom, Tom and I were making soup, but we turned the wrong knob and now there is fire!" Sara said. + +Mom heard Sara and got worried. She told Sara to stay away from the stove and to wait for her. She left her work and drove home as fast as she could. + +When Mom arrived, she saw the smoke and the fire. She grabbed a towel and turned off the stove. She put the towel over the pot and the fire went out. She checked Sara and Tom and hugged them. + +"Are you okay, my loves?" Mom asked. "I'm so glad you are not hurt." + +Sara and Tom nodded and hugged Mom back. They were sorry for making a mess and for scaring Mom. They told Mom they were sorry and that they loved her. + +Mom smiled and kissed them. She told them she loved them too and that she was proud of them for calling her.

The cookies were delicious. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play golf with their dads. They have small golf clubs and balls. They go to the park and hit the balls. + +"Look, I can hit the ball far!" Tom says. He swings his club and the ball flies over the grass. + +"Wow, you are good!" Sam says. He tries to hit the ball too, but he misses. He tries again, but the ball only rolls a little bit. "I am weak," he says. He feels sad. + +"No, you are not weak," Tom says.

You have to behave and stay with me. Do not run away or touch things that are not yours. If you are good, you can each pick one candy." + +Lily and Ben nod and say, "Okay, Mom." They go to the store with Mom. Mom gives them each a basket to carry. Lily and Ben see many things that they want. They see books, balls, dolls, cars, and more. They want to put them in their baskets, but Mom says, "No, you cannot have those. You only have zero money. You can only have one candy each." + +Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They do not want to behave. They want to have more things. They start to run away from Mom and touch things that are not theirs. They knock over a pile of cans and make a loud noise. Mom is very upset. She says, "Lily and Ben, what are you doing? You are not behaving. You are making a mess and bothering other people. You have to stop and say sorry. And you cannot have any candy now." + +Lily and Ben are scared and sorry. They see that Mom is right. They have been bad. They say, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, people. We will behave. We will be helpful." They help Mom pick up the cans and put them back. They help Mom carry the baskets and pay for the things. They do not ask for any candy. + +Mom is happy and proud. She says, "Lily and Ben, thank you for being helpful. You have learned your lesson. You have to behave and share and be kind. You cannot have everything you want.

He said to Mia, "Let's poke the log with a stick and make it move. Maybe we can ride on it." + +Mia was not sure. She said, "But what if we fall in the water? The water is cold and deep and scary." + +Sam said, "Don't be a baby. It will be fun. Come on, I found a long stick. You can hold my hand." + +Mia did not want to make Sam angry. She wanted to be brave. She took his hand and followed him to the log. Sam poked the log with the stick and it moved a little bit. He smiled and said, "See? It's easy. Let's poke it again and make it go faster." + +He poked the log harder and it moved more. But then something bad happened. The log tipped over and Sam and Mia fell in the water. They screamed and splashed and tried to swim. But the water was too cold and too deep and too scary. They could not reach the shore. They could not breathe. They sank under the water and did not come up again. +Tom was a little boy who liked to make toast for breakfast. He liked to put butter and jam on his toast and eat it with milk.

"The apples are too high." + +Sara thinks. She sees a stick on the ground. She picks it up and gives it to Tom. + +"Here, Tom, use this stick. You can make the apples fall." + +Tom takes the stick and tries to hit the apples. He hits one apple and it falls. Sara runs to catch it. But the apple is not red.

"You are very obedient and creative. But you also need to be safe. The oven is not a toy. You need to let me handle it.

It had some words on it. + +"What is this?" Lily wondered. + +"Maybe it is a message," Tom guessed. + +They took the paper and tried to read it. But the words were hard. They did not recognize them. + +"Who wrote this?" Lily asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe someone who lives in the tree," Tom said. + +They heard a noise. It was a squirrel. It came out of the hole and saw them. It was angry. It wanted its paper back. + +"Hey, that is mine!" the squirrel squeaked. + +"Sorry, we did not know," Lily said. + +"Give it to me now!" the squirrel demanded. + +They gave the paper to the squirrel.

She had a warm smile. + +"Did you have fun?" she asked. + +"Yes, but we also found a message," Lily said. + +"A message? What did it say?" she asked. + +"We don't know.

He never shared his hay or his water with the other animals. + +One day, Lila and Tom decided to play a trick on the mule. They found some carrots and apples in the barn and hid them in their pockets. They walked slowly to the mule's pen and pretended to be nice. + +"Hello, mule," Lila said. "We have a surprise for you. Do you want to see?" + +The mule looked at them with his big ears and his long nose. He smelled the carrots and apples and licked his lips. He thought they were generous and wanted to be his friends. + +"Yes, yes, show me," the mule said. + +Lila and Tom smiled and took out the carrots and apples. They held them in front of the mule's mouth and waited for him to bite. But as soon as he opened his mouth, they pulled them back and ran away. They laughed and shouted, "Ha, ha, mule, you are so silly! You can't have our treats!" + +The mule was angry and hurt. He felt tricked and betrayed. He chased after them and tried to catch them. But they were too fast and too smart. They ran to the fence and jumped over it. They left the mule alone and sad. + +The mule learned a lesson that day. He realized that he was not nice to the other animals and that he had no friends. He wished he could be more generous and kind. He decided to change his ways and share his hay and his water. He hoped that Lila and Tom would forgive him and play with him again. +Tom and Mia liked to play with their bikes. They had helmets to keep their heads safe. One day, they saw a big hill near their park. They wanted to go down the hill very fast. + +But there was a problem. The hill had two paths. One path was smooth and easy. The other path was bumpy and hard. Tom and Mia did not agree on which path to take. Tom wanted the smooth path. Mia wanted the bumpy path. They started to argue and shout. + +Then they heard a voice. It was their friend Leo. Leo had a bike too. He also had a helmet. But his helmet was different. It had a sticker that said "unite". Leo asked Tom and Mia what was wrong.

I have an idea," Lily says. + +She runs to the swings. She finds a long stick. She brings it to the tree. + +"Look, Ben. I have a stick. Maybe we can get your hat with the stick," Lily says. + +They try to reach the hat with the stick. They push and pull. They work together. + +They get the hat. It falls to the ground.

Ben says, "I don't want to climb anymore. It is too high. I want to go back." + +Anna says, "Don't be stubborn, Ben. It will be fun. Look, there is a tree on the top. Maybe we can find a monkey or a bird." Ben says, "No, thank you. I am scared. You go. I will wait here." + +Anna says, "Fine. I will go by myself. You are missing out." She leaves Ben and climbs to the top. She reaches the tree. She looks around. She sees the park, the road, the houses. She does not see any animals. She feels sad and lonely. + +She goes back to Ben. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. There was nothing to see. The hill was not a jungle. It was just a hill. You were right. It was not fun." Ben says, "It's OK, Anna. I'm sorry, too. I was scared. I did not want to leave you. You are my friend." + +They hug. They say, "Let's go play something else. Something we both like." They go down the hill. They find a slide. They slide down. They laugh. They are happy. They are friends. +Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park every day. They have a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They also like to look at the flowers, the birds and the bugs. + +One day, they see a big, shiny balloon in the sky. It is red and yellow and blue. It looks amazing. They want to touch it and see what it is. + +"Wow, look at that balloon!" Lily says. "It is so big and pretty!" + +"Let's go and get it!" Ben says. "Maybe it is a gift for us!" + +They run after the balloon. They try to catch it, but it is too high. They jump and stretch, but they cannot reach it. The balloon keeps going up and up. + +"Why is it going away?" Lily asks. "I want to hold it!" + +"Maybe it is scared of us," Ben says. "Or maybe it wants to see more of the world." + +They keep following the balloon. They cross the street, the bridge and the hill. They see new things and new people. They see a river, a boat and a fish. They see a farm, a cow and a pig. They see a school, a teacher and a book. + +The balloon shows them a lot of life. It makes them happy and curious. It increases their joy and knowledge. + +They do not notice that it is getting late. They do not notice that they are far from home. They only notice the balloon. + +"Where is it taking us?"

She liked to wash the vegetables and cut them with a safe knife. Mom said vegetables were good for her and made her strong and healthy. + +One day, mom gave Anna a big white vegetable. It looked like a flower, but it was hard and bumpy. Mom said it was called cauliflower and it was very tasty. Anna wanted to try it, but mom said she had to cook it first. + +Mom put a pot of water on the stove and turned on the fire. She told Anna to be careful and not touch the fire or the pot. She said the water would get very hot and make bubbles. Then she put the cauliflower in the water and said they had to wait for a while. + +Anna watched the pot and saw the water start to bubble. She heard a hissing sound and saw steam coming out of the pot. She asked mom what it was. Mom said it was the water turning into air. She said the air was very hot and had to release from the pot. She said release meant to let go or to come out. + +Anna thought that was very interesting. She wondered what else could release. She looked around the kitchen and saw a balloon on the table. It was from her birthday party yesterday. She picked up the balloon and squeezed it. She felt the air inside the balloon. She asked mom if the balloon could release too. + +Mom said yes, but she had to be careful. She said if she released the balloon too fast, it would make a loud noise and fly away. She said if she released it slowly, it would make a funny noise and shrink. She said the balloon was useful for playing, but not for eating. + +Anna decided to try both ways. She released the balloon fast and saw it zoom across the room. She laughed and chased it. Then she released it slowly and heard it make a squeaky sound. She giggled and watched it get smaller. She had fun with the balloon until mom said the cauliflower was ready. + +Mom drained the water from the pot and put the cauliflower on a plate. She cut a piece for Anna and put some cheese on it.

But we have to use our own scooters." + +The big boy smiled and said, "OK, let's race. But if I win, I get your scooter. And if you win, you get mine." Tim thought that was a good deal.

I can make 'sat' with 's', 'a' and 't'. 'Sat' is a word. It means to sit down." + +Lily claps. She says, "Very good, Ben. You made a word. You made a spell. You are smart." + +Ben smiles.
