He taught her how to love. + +Lisa learned a valuable lesson that day. She learned that toys are not important, but love is. She learned to be grateful and kind, not greedy and rude. She learned to be happy. +One day, Ben and Lily went to the park with their mom. They saw a big slide and wanted to try it. Ben went first and slid down fast. He laughed and said, "That was fun!" + +Lily was a bit frightened, but she wanted to be brave like her brother. She climbed up the ladder and sat on the slide. But then she saw a big bee flying near her. She screamed and tried to get away, but she slipped and fell off the slide. She landed on the grass and hurt her knee. + +Mom ran to her and hugged her. She said, "Are you okay, Lily? Don't worry, it's just a bee. It won't hurt you." + +Lily cried and said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I was scared of the bee. I didn't mean to fall." + +Mom kissed her and said, "It's okay, Lily. Everyone gets scared sometimes. You don't have to be sorry. You're very brave for trying the slide." + +Ben came over and said, "Yeah, Lily, you're brave. And you're my sister. I love you." + +He gave her a pick from the flower bed and said, "Here, this is for you. It's pretty like you." + +Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. I love you too." + +She took the pick and put it in her hair. She felt better and said, "Can we try the slide again?" + +Mom said, "Sure, if you want to. But be careful, okay?" + +Ben and Lily nodded and ran to the slide. They slid down together and laughed. They had fun at the park and forgot about the bee. They were not frightened or embarrass anymore. They were happy. +Anna and Ben are playing in the garden. They have a big box of toys. Anna likes to draw with crayons and paper. Ben likes to make shapes with rubber and scissors. They are happy and share their toys. + +But then, Ben sees a shiny red rubber in the box. He wants it very much. He thinks it is the best rubber in the world. He takes it and hides it in his pocket. He does not tell Anna. + +Anna looks for the red rubber. She likes it too. She asks Ben, "Where is the red rubber? I want to draw a heart with it." + +Ben does not answer. He pretends he does not hear. He makes a funny face and cuts a star with another rubber. + +Anna asks again, "Ben, please tell me. Where is the red rubber? I need it for my picture." + +Ben still does not answer. He laughs and runs away. He thinks he is clever and Anna is silly. + +Anna is sad and angry. She follows Ben. She wants to find the red rubber. She thinks Ben is mean and selfish. + +She sees Ben hiding behind a tree. She runs to him and grabs his pocket. She feels the red rubber inside. She pulls it out and says, "Ha! I found it! You took it from me! You are a bad friend!" + +Ben is shocked and scared. He did not think Anna would find out. He says, "No, no, it is mine! I saw it first! You are a bad friend!" + +They start to fight over the red rubber. They pull and tug and shout. They do not hear their mom calling them for lunch. + +Their mom comes to the garden. She sees them fighting. She is angry and disappointed. She says, "Stop it, both of you! What are you doing? Why are you fighting over a rubber? You have so many toys. You should share and be nice to each other. You are not good friends!" + +She takes the red rubber from them. She says, "This rubber is not yours or mine. It is hidden for a reason. It belongs to the neighbor's dog. He likes to chew it and play with it. He left it here by mistake. You should give it back to him. He is a good friend!" + +Anna and Ben feel ashamed and sorry. They did not know the rubber was for the dog. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We are sorry, dog. We were wrong. We will give it back to you. We will be good friends." + +They go to the neighbor's house. They see the dog waiting for them. He is happy and wagging his tail. He takes the red rubber and licks their hands. He thanks them and invites them to play with him. + +Anna and Ben smile and hug the dog. They say, "We are sorry, dog. We are happy to play with you. You are a good friend!" + +They learn their lesson. They do not fight over toys anymore. They share and be nice to each other. They are good friends. +Lily wanted to go to the park with her mom and dad. She ran to her room and looked for her favorite shirt. It was pink and had a big flower on it. But she could not find it. She was sad and angry. + +She went to her mom and said, "Mom, where is my shirt? I want to wear it to the park. Please, please, please!" + +Her mom smiled and said, "Lily, I washed your shirt yesterday. It is in the dryer. You can wear another shirt today. How about this blue one? It is very pretty and soft." + +Lily shook her head and said, "No, no, no! I want my pink shirt. It is the best shirt ever. I will not go to the park without it." + +Her mom sighed and said, "Lily, you are being silly and stubborn. You have many shirts to choose from. You can wear your pink shirt another day. It is not wise to miss the fun at the park because of a shirt." + +Lily thought for a moment. She liked the park. She liked the swings and the slides and the ducks. She did not want to miss the fun. Maybe her mom was right. Maybe she was being silly and stubborn. Maybe she could wear another shirt today. + +She looked at her mom and said, "OK, mom. I will wear the blue shirt. But can I wear my pink shirt tomorrow?" + +Her mom hugged her and said, "Of course, Lily. You can wear your pink shirt tomorrow. I am proud of you for being wise and flexible. Now let's go to the park and have some fun." +Sara and Tom were playing by the river. They liked to throw stones and watch the water splash. Sara was bossy. She told Tom what to do and what not to do. Tom did not like that. + +"Tom, don't go near the water. It is deep and you can fall in," Sara said. + +"But I want to see the fish and the frogs," Tom said. + +"No, you have to listen to me. I am older and smarter than you. You have to do what I say," Sara said. + +Tom was angry. He did not want to listen to Sara. He wanted to have fun. He saw a big log in the water. He thought it was a boat. He ran to the log and jumped on it. + +"Tom, stop! That is not a boat. That is a crocodile!" Sara shouted. + +But Tom did not hear her. He was happy on the log. He pretended to be a pirate. He waved his stick and said, "Ahoy, matey!" + +The crocodile felt Tom on its back. It was hungry and angry. It opened its mouth and snapped at Tom. Tom screamed and tried to get away. But it was too late. The crocodile bit Tom and dragged him into the water. + +Sara saw what happened. She was scared and sad. She ran to get help. But no one was there. She cried and cried. She wished she had not been so bossy. She wished she had helped Tom. She wished Tom was still alive. +Sara had a new pet. It was a fish. The fish had many scales. They were shiny and blue. Sara liked to watch the fish swim in the bowl. She gave it food and water every day. + +One day, Sara's brother Tom came to her room. He was naughty. He wanted to play with the fish. He took the bowl from the shelf. He shook it hard. The water splashed out. The fish was scared. It tried to hide in the rocks. + +Sara saw Tom and ran to him. She was angry. She wanted to protect her fish. She yelled at Tom. She tried to grab the bowl. But Tom was stronger. He pushed Sara away. He threw the bowl on the floor. It broke into pieces. The water spilled out. The fish was out of the water. It could not breathe. It stopped moving. + +Sara cried. She was sad. She lost her new pet. She loved her fish. Tom laughed. He was mean. He did not care. He ran away. Sara was alone. She wished she could have her fish back. But it was too late. The fish was gone. The end. +Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. But sometimes they disagree about what to play. + +One day, Ben wants to play with the cars and trucks. He makes a lot of noise and pretends to drive them on the floor. Lily wants to play with the dolls and the tea set. She sets up a table and chairs and pretends to have a tea party. + +"Ben, stop making noise!" Lily says. "You are ruining my tea party!" + +"Lily, stop being boring!" Ben says. "You are ruining my car race!" + +They start to argue and shout at each other. They do not share their toys or listen to each other. + +Mom hears them and comes to their room. She sees the mess and the angry faces. She is not happy. + +"Ben and Lily, what is going on here?" Mom says. "Why are you disagreeing so much?" + +"Mom, Ben is too loud and he does not let me play with the dolls!" Lily says. + +"Mom, Lily is too quiet and she does not let me play with the cars!" Ben says. + +Mom sighs and says, "You are both being silly. You can play with different toys, but you have to respect each other and take turns. You can also play together and have fun. Why don't you try to mix your toys and make a new game?" + +Ben and Lily look at each other and think. They realize that Mom is right. They say sorry to each other and hug. They decide to try Mom's idea. They take some cars and some dolls and make a new game. They pretend that the cars are taking the dolls to the tea party. They make playful sounds and stories. They laugh and have fun. + +Mom smiles and says, "That's better. I'm glad you are getting along. Now, please clean up your toys when you are done. That is the order." + +Ben and Lily nod and say, "Yes, Mom. We will. Thank you for helping us." + +They continue to play happily and peacefully. They do not disagree anymore. They are good twins. +Tom and Anna are playing with their toy boats in the bathtub. They pretend that the boats are sailing to different places. Tom likes to make loud noises and splash the water. Anna likes to make up stories and names for the places. + +"Look, this is Port Blue, where the fish are blue and the water is sweet," Anna says, holding her boat near the faucet. + +"No, this is Port Loud, where the boats are mighty and the water is noisy," Tom says, holding his boat near the drain. + +Anna shakes her head. "No, Tom, you are wrong. Port Loud is not a real place. Port Blue is much better." + +Tom insists. "No, Anna, you are wrong. Port Loud is the best place. My boat is the strongest and the fastest. Watch this!" He pushes his boat towards Anna's boat and makes a crashing sound. + +Anna is angry. "Tom, stop that! You are ruining my game. You are not nice. You are mean." + +Tom is sorry. He did not mean to make Anna angry. He likes to play with her. He wants to make her happy. + +"I'm sorry, Anna. I was just playing. You are not wrong. Port Blue is a nice place. Can we share it?" + +Anna smiles. She is not angry anymore. She likes to play with Tom. He is her brother. She wants to make him happy. + +"Okay, Tom. We can share it. But you have to be gentle with your boat. And you have to listen to my stories." + +Tom nods. He agrees. He is gentle with his boat. And he listens to Anna's stories. They play together in the bathtub. They have fun. They are happy. +One day, Sam and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making a network of roads and bridges with their blocks and cars. They pretended to be drivers and passengers, honking and waving at each other. + +"Look, Mia, I made a big tunnel!" Sam said, pointing to a hole under a pile of blocks. + +"Wow, that's cool, Sam! Can I go through it?" Mia asked, holding a purple car. + +"Sure, but be careful. There might be a dragon inside!" Sam joked, making a scary face. + +Mia laughed and drove her car into the tunnel. She was not afraid of dragons. She liked them. She imagined that the dragon was friendly and would let her pet its scales and wings. + +But as she reached the end of the tunnel, she saw something that made her scream. It was not a dragon. It was a candle that Mom had left on the table. And it was burning. The flame was very bright and hot. It had set some of the blocks on fire. The fire was spreading fast. + +"Sam, help! There's a fire!" Mia shouted, dropping her car and running out of the tunnel. + +Sam heard Mia's cry and looked up. He saw the smoke and the fire. He was scared. He grabbed Mia's hand and ran to the door. He yelled for Mom. + +"Mom, Mom, there's a fire in the living room! Come quick!" + +Mom heard Sam's voice and ran to the living room. She saw the fire and grabbed a blanket. She threw it over the fire and smothered it. She checked if Sam and Mia were okay. They were not hurt, but they were shaking and crying. + +"Sam, Mia, what happened? How did the fire start?" Mom asked, hugging them. + +"We were playing with our blocks and cars. We made a network of roads and bridges. Mia went into a tunnel and found a candle. It was burning. It set the blocks on fire. We were scared. We ran to the door. We called you." Sam explained, sobbing. + +"Oh, Sam, Mia, I'm so sorry. I forgot to blow out the candle. That was very dangerous. You should never play with fire. It can burn you and your things. I'm glad you're safe. I'm proud of you for calling me. But you should never go near a candle again. Do you understand?" Mom said, wiping their tears. + +"Yes, Mom, we understand. We're sorry. We won't play with fire again. We love you." Sam and Mia said, nodding. + +Mom kissed them and hugged them again. She was relieved that they were okay. She was sorry that their toys were ruined. She decided to buy them new ones. She also decided to put the candles away. She learned a lesson too. She should never leave a candle burning. It could cause a big fire. She loved her children. She wanted to keep them safe. +Lily liked to follow her big brother Tom everywhere. She wanted to do what he did and play with his toys. But Tom did not like it when Lily followed him. He said she was too small and annoying. + +One day, Tom was playing with his blocks in his room. He made a big tower and a bridge. He was very proud of his work. He did not want Lily to touch it or knock it down. He saw Lily coming into his room. He said, "Go away, Lily! This is my game. You can't play with me." + +Lily did not listen. She was persistent. She wanted to see the blocks and the tower and the bridge. She walked towards Tom's game. Tom got angry. He said, "Stop, Lily! Don't come any closer. I will tell Mom!" + +Lily did not stop. She kept walking. She saw a chair near the door. She thought it was a good place to climb and watch. She climbed on the chair. But the chair was not stable. It wobbled and tipped over. Lily fell down with a loud thud. She hurt her arm and her head. She started to cry. + +Tom heard the noise and turned around. He saw Lily on the floor, crying and bleeding. He felt sorry for her. He forgot about his game. He ran to her and hugged her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to be mean. Are you okay?" + +Lily stopped crying. She hugged Tom back. She said, "I'm okay, Tom. I just wanted to play with you. I love you." + +Tom said, "I love you too, Lily. Come on, let's go to Mom. She will make you feel better. And then we can play together. You can help me with my blocks." + +Lily smiled. She followed Tom to Mom. She was happy. She learned that sometimes following can be dangerous, but sometimes it can be fun. +Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They had a big box of toys and a lot of books. Lily liked to act like the animals in the books. She would make noises and move like them. Ben liked to draw pictures of the animals with his crayons. He would show them to Lily and ask her to guess what they were. + +"Look, Lily, what is this?" Ben said, holding up a picture of a brown and black animal with a long nose. + +Lily looked at the picture and thought hard. She remembered seeing that animal in one of the books. "Is it an anteater?" she asked. + +"Yes, it is! You are very smart, Lily!" Ben said, smiling. "Anteaters eat ants. They use their long noses to find them and lick them up. Do you think ants are yummy?" + +Lily made a face. She did not think ants were yummy at all. She liked cookies and apples and cheese. "No, I don't think ants are yummy. I think they are yucky!" she said. + +Ben laughed. He agreed with Lily. He did not like ants either. He liked cookies and apples and cheese too. "Me too, Lily. I don't like ants. I like cookies and apples and cheese. Do you want to share some with me?" he asked. + +Lily nodded. She was hungry and wanted a snack. She and Ben put away their toys and books and went to the kitchen. They found some cookies and apples and cheese on the table. They took some and sat down on the floor. They ate their snack and talked about the animals they liked. They were happy and full. They thought cookies and apples and cheese were very yummy. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is smelly and dirty. It barks at them. + +"Let's go and pet the dog," Tom says. He likes dogs. + +"No, don't do that," Sam says. He is scared of dogs. "The dog is smelly and mean. It might bite us." + +Tom does not listen to Sam. He thinks the dog is nice. He walks to the dog and tries to touch it. The dog growls and snaps at Tom. Tom runs away. He is hurt and sad. + +"Are you okay?" Sam asks. He runs to Tom and hugs him. + +"I'm sorry, Sam," Tom says. "You were right. The dog is smelly and mean. I should have listened to you." + +"It's okay, Tom," Sam says. "I'm your friend. I will help you. Let's go and find your mom. She will make you feel better." + +They walk to Tom's mom. She sees Tom's wound and takes him to the doctor. The doctor gives Tom a bandage and a sticker. He tells Tom to be careful with dogs. + +Tom and Sam learn a lesson. They do not go near smelly and mean dogs. They play with nice and clean dogs. They are happy and safe. +Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big building. It is very tall and has many windows. It is a modern building. + +"Wow, look at that!" Tom says. "It is so shiny!" + +"Yes, it is!" Lila agrees. "The sun makes it shine. Do you want to go closer?" + +Tom nods. They run to the building. They see a door. It is made of glass. They can see inside. There are many people and things. + +"What is this place?" Tom asks. + +"I don't know," Lila says. "Maybe it is a school. Or a museum. Or a hospital." + +They see a sign. It has many letters. They cannot read it. + +"Can you read that?" Tom asks. + +"No, I can't," Lila says. "It is too hard. Maybe we can ask someone." + +They look around. They see a man. He is wearing a blue shirt and a badge. He looks nice. + +"Excuse me, sir," Lila says. "What is this place?" + +The man smiles. He bends down to their level. + +"Hello, kids," he says. "This is a library. Do you know what a library is?" + +Lila and Tom shake their heads. + +"A library is a place where you can find many books," the man says. "Books are like stories. You can read them or listen to them. They can teach you many things. Do you like books?" + +Lila and Tom nod. + +"Yes, we do!" they say. + +"Would you like to come inside and see the books?" the man asks. + +Lila and Tom look at each other. They are curious and excited. + +"Yes, please!" they say. + +The man opens the door. He lets them in. He shows them the books. There are many books. They are colorful and different. Some are big, some are small. Some have pictures, some have words. Some are old, some are new. + +Lila and Tom are amazed. They pick up some books. They look at them. They ask the man questions. He answers them. He is very kind. + +They have fun. They learn many things. They forget about the time. + +They thank the man. They say goodbye. They go back to the park. + +They are happy. They have a new friend. They have a new place to visit. + +They look at the building. It is still shiny. It is a modern building. It is a library. It is full of books. It is full of stories. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big uncle who lived with them. He was very kind and funny, but he had a bad tooth that hurt him a lot. He did not like to go to the dentist, because he was afraid of the drill. + +One day, uncle came home from work and saw Anna and Ben eating apples. He smiled and said, "Can I have one, please?" Anna and Ben nodded and gave him an apple. Uncle took a big bite and then screamed. He dropped the apple and held his mouth. "Ow, ow, ow!" he cried. "My tooth! It's rotten!" + +Anna and Ben ran to him and hugged him. They felt sorry for him. They said, "Uncle, you need to go to the dentist. He can fix your tooth and make it better. He is not scary, he is nice. We went to him last week and he gave us stickers and balloons." + +Uncle looked at them and sighed. He knew they were right, but he was still scared. He said, "But I don't want to go. It will hurt more. Can't I just eat soft things and wait for it to fall out?" + +Anna and Ben shook their heads. They said, "No, uncle, you can't. If you wait, your tooth will rot more and make you sick. And you won't be able to eat anything you like. You have to go to the dentist now. He will help you. We will go with you and hold your hand. Please, uncle, be brave and obedient." + +Uncle looked at their sweet faces and felt ashamed. He loved them very much and wanted to make them happy. He said, "Okay, okay, I will go. But you have to promise me something. After the dentist, can we go to the park and play on the swings and slides?" + +Anna and Ben smiled and said, "Yes, uncle, we promise. We love you, uncle. You are the best uncle in the world." + +They hugged him again and helped him get his coat and keys. They walked to the car and drove to the dentist. Uncle was still nervous, but he felt better with Anna and Ben by his side. He hoped the dentist would be gentle and quick. He also hoped he would get a sticker and a balloon. +Lily and Tom are brother and sister. They share a room and a bed. One night, Lily cannot sleep. She is not tired. She wants to play. She pokes Tom and whispers, "Tom, are you awake?" + +Tom is very tired. He has a big day tomorrow. He has to go to school and learn new things. He does not want to play. He groans and says, "Lily, go to sleep. It is late. I am tired." + +But Lily does not listen. She pokes Tom again and says, "Tom, please play with me. I am bored. I want to have fun." + +Tom is angry. He does not reply. He turns away from Lily and closes his eyes. He hopes Lily will stop bothering him and go to sleep. + +But Lily does not stop. She pokes Tom harder and harder. She pulls his hair and kicks his legs. She says, "Tom, Tom, Tom, play with me, play with me, play with me!" + +Tom is very angry. He cannot take it anymore. He jumps out of the bed and shouts, "Lily, stop it! You are a bad sister! You are mean and selfish! I hate you!" + +Lily is shocked. She did not expect Tom to yell at her. She feels sad and scared. She starts to cry. She says, "Tom, I am sorry. I love you. Please don't hate me." + +But Tom does not hear her. He runs out of the room and slams the door. He does not want to see Lily ever again. He does not care if she is sorry or if she loves him. He is too tired and too angry. + +Lily is alone in the dark. She cries and cries. She wishes Tom would come back and hug her and say he loves her too. But he does not. He does not reply. He does not wake. He does not care. Lily is very sad. She has no one to play with. She has no one to love. She has a bad night. She has a bad ending. +Tom loved to fly his kite. He had a big kite with a long tail and many colors. He waited for a windy day to go to the park with his dad. He wanted to make his kite soar high in the sky. + +At the park, Tom saw many other kids with kites. They had different shapes and sizes of kites. Some had stars, some had birds, some had dragons. Tom liked them all. He ran with his dad and let his kite go. His kite caught the wind and flew up and up. He felt happy. + +Tom looked at the sky and saw something amazing. All the kites were connected by strings. They made a big network of colors and shapes. They looked like a giant painting in the air. Tom thought it was beautiful. He smiled and said, "Look, dad, the kites are friends!" + +Dad smiled too. He said, "Yes, they are. And so are we. We are part of the network too. We share the wind and the light and the joy of flying kites." + +Tom nodded. He felt the wind on his face and the light in his eyes. He held his dad's hand and watched his kite soar. He felt happy. He felt free. He felt love. +Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had long hair and a soft dress. Lily liked to brush Anna's hair and make her talk. + +One day, Lily's mom said they had to go to the store. Lily did not want to go. She wanted to stay and play with Anna. She said, "No, Mom, no store. Anna and me play." + +Mom said, "Lily, we have to go. You can bring Anna with you, but you have to put on your shoes and coat. It is cold outside." + +Lily did not like her shoes and coat. They were hard and scratchy. She liked her socks and sweater. They were soft and warm. She said, "No, Mom, no shoes, no coat. Socks and sweater good." + +Mom said, "Lily, you can't go outside with just socks and sweater. You will get sick. Please, don't resist. Put on your shoes and coat. I promise we will be back soon. And you can play with Anna in the car." + +Lily looked at Anna. Anna looked at Lily. Lily loved Anna. She did not want to make her sad. She said, "Okay, Mom. I put on shoes and coat. But only for Anna. And you keep promise. We back soon." + +Mom smiled and hugged Lily. She said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good girl. And I keep promise. We will be back soon.

They took Anna and went to the car. They drove to the store. Lily played with Anna in the car. She brushed her hair and made her talk. She was happy. Mom was happy. Anna was happy. They kept their promise. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They had a lot of fun. But Lily was stubborn. She wanted to do everything by herself. She did not want to share or listen. + +"Let me swing higher!" Lily said to Ben. "You had your turn. Now it is mine." + +"No, Lily. You have to wait. You can swing after me." Ben said. He was kind and patient. + +But Lily did not wait. She pushed Ben off the swing. Ben fell to the ground. He hurt his knee. He cried. + +"Lily, that was mean! You hurt me!" Ben said.

He needs a band-aid." Lily said to the lady. + +The lady was nice. She saw that Ben was hurt. She had a band-aid in her bag. She gave it to Lily. + +"Here you go, dear. Put this on his knee. It will make him feel better." The lady said to Lily. + +Lily thanked the lady. She put the band-aid on Ben's knee. She kissed it. + +"Does it feel better, Ben?" Lily asked. + +Ben nodded. He smiled. He was not crying anymore. + +"Thank you, Lily. You saved me. You are a good friend." Ben said. + +Lily smiled too. She was happy. She learned a lesson. + +"I am sorry, Ben. I will not be stubborn anymore. I will share and listen. Can we play together again?" Lily asked. + +Ben nodded. He hugged Lily. + +"Of course, Lily. We can play together again. We can have more fun." Ben said. + +They held hands. They went back to the swing. They took turns. They were friends. They had fun. +Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big ball. They both want the ball. + +"Give me the ball!" Tom says. + +"No, it is mine!" Anna says. + +They fight for the ball. They pull and push and shout. They are not quiet. They are loud. + +A lady sees them. She is sad. She says, "Stop fighting, children. Fighting is not nice. You can share the ball. Or you can play something else." + +Tom and Anna stop fighting. They feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, lady. We are sorry, friend." + +The lady smiles. She says, "That is good. Now, why don't you give each other a massage? A massage is nice. It makes you feel good. And it is quiet." + +Tom and Anna nod. They give each other a massage. They rub each other's back and arms and legs. They say, "This is nice. This feels good. And it is quiet." + +They are happy. They are friends. They do not fight. They give each other a massage. And they are quiet. +Lily liked to play with her toys. She had a big box of toys in her room. She had dolls, cars, blocks, and a tube. The tube was her favorite toy. She could blow air in it and make funny noises. She could also put things in it and see them come out the other end. + +One day, Lily was playing with her tube in the living room. She saw a shiny coin on the table. She wanted to see what would happen if she put the coin in the tube. She took the coin and put it in the tube. She blew hard and waited for the coin to come out. But nothing happened. The coin was stuck in the tube. + +Lily tried to get the coin out. She shook the tube, she pulled the tube, she hit the tube. But the coin did not move. She started to cry. She was afraid that her tube was broken. She was also afraid that her mom would be angry. The coin was not hers. It was her mom's. + +Her mom heard her cry and came to the living room. She saw Lily with the tube and the coin. She asked Lily what happened. Lily told her the truth. She said she was sorry. She said she wanted to play with the tube and the coin. + +Her mom was not happy. She said that Lily should not take things that are not hers. She said that Lily should not put things in the tube that can get stuck. She said that Lily should be careful with her toys. She said that Lily had to punish. She took the tube and the coin away from Lily. She said that Lily could not play with them for a week. + +Lily was very sad. She loved her tube. She did not want to punish. She said she was sorry again. She said she would not do it again. She hugged her mom and asked her to forgive her. + +Her mom hugged her back. She said that she loved her. She said that she forgave her. She said that she was proud of her for telling the truth. She said that telling the truth was not easy, but it was right. She said that Lily could have her tube and her coin back after a week. She said that Lily could play with her other toys until then. + +Lily smiled. She was glad that her mom loved her and forgave her. She was also glad that she had other toys to play with. She decided to play with her dolls. She said goodbye to her tube and her coin. She said she would see them soon. She said she would be good. She said she would not put things in the tube that can get stuck. She said she would have fun. +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big pile of ash near the fence. It was from the fire that Daddy made yesterday. + +"Let's go see the ash!" Ben said. He ran towards the pile. + +"No, Ben, stop!" Lily shouted. "Mummy said the ash is hot and hurt. We can't touch it." + +But Ben did not listen. He wanted to see the ash. He reached out his hand and touched the pile. + +"Ow!" Ben cried. He pulled back his hand. It was red and hurt. He started to cry. + +Lily ran to him and hugged him. She was sorry for Ben. She saw Mummy coming from the house. + +"Mummy, Mummy, Ben touched the ash and it hurt him!" Lily said. + +"Oh, Ben, what did you do?" Mummy said. She took Ben's hand and looked at it. She kissed it and said, "You silly boy, you should have listened to Lily. The ash is hot and hurt. You need some ice and a bandage." + +She took Ben and Lily inside the house. She put some ice on Ben's hand and wrapped it with a bandage. She gave him a hug and a cookie. + +"Are you feeling better, Ben?" Mummy asked. + +"A little," Ben said. He looked at Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You were right. The ash is hot and hurt. I should have listened to you." + +"It's okay, Ben. I'm glad you're not hurt too much," Lily said. She smiled and gave him a cookie. + +They ate their cookies and played with their toys. They did not go near the ash again. They learned their lesson. +Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. One day, it rained a lot and there were many puddles on the ground. Lily and Tom wanted to jump in the puddles and make a splash. + +"Mom, can we go out and play in the puddles?" they asked. + +"Yes, but you have to wear your boots and coats and listen to me. Don't go too far and don't jump in the big puddles. They are deep and dirty and you might get hurt," Mom said. + +Lily and Tom put on their boots and coats and ran outside. They saw many small puddles and jumped in them. They laughed and had fun. But then, Tom saw a big puddle near the road. It was shiny and looked like a lake. + +"Look, Lily, a big puddle! Let's jump in it!" Tom said. + +"No, Tom, Mom said no. It's too big and too close to the road. There are cars and trucks and they are fast and loud. They might not see us and hit us," Lily said. + +But Tom did not listen to Lily or Mom. He was careless and wanted to jump in the big puddle. He ran towards it and did not look at the road. He did not see the truck that was coming. The truck did not see Tom either. It was too late to stop. + +There was a loud noise and a big splash. Lily screamed and ran to Tom. But Tom did not move or talk. He was hurt and bleeding. Lily cried and called for Mom. Mom came and saw what happened. She was sad and angry and scared. She called for help and hugged Lily. But Tom did not wake up. He was gone. +Anna and Ben were going to visit their grandma by train. They were very excited. They packed their bags and hugged their mom and dad. Mom and dad said they would pick them up at the station in two days. + +Anna and Ben got on the train with their aunt. They found their seats and looked out the window. They saw many things: cars, trees, houses, cows, birds. They played games and ate snacks. They were happy. + +But then the train stopped. The conductor said there was a problem with the tracks. They had to wait for a long time. Anna and Ben got bored. They ran out of games and snacks. They started to cry. They wanted to see their grandma. They were frustrated. + +Their aunt tried to calm them down. She told them stories and sang songs. She said they would get to the station soon. She said their grandma was waiting for them with a big hug and a kiss. She said their mom and dad would be happy to see them too. She said everything would be okay. + +Finally, the train started to move again. Anna and Ben cheered. They looked out the window and saw the station. They saw their grandma waving at them. They saw their mom and dad smiling at them. They got off the train and ran to them. They hugged them and kissed them. They were happy. +Sam and Ben were brothers. They liked to play games. One day, they played a game with cards. The cards had pictures of animals on them. Sam had a card with a chicken. Ben had a card with a cow. + +"Who has the bigger animal?" Sam asked. + +"I do!" Ben said. "A cow is bigger than a chicken." + +"No, you don't!" Sam said. "A chicken is bigger than a cow." + +They argued and argued. They did not listen to each other. They were impatient. + +Mom heard them and came to see. She saw the cards and the angry faces. + +"Boys, stop fighting!" she said. "It's just a game. It doesn't matter who has the bigger animal. What matters is that you have fun and share." + +But Sam and Ben did not listen to Mom. They wanted to win. They grabbed each other's cards and tore them apart. The cards were ruined. + +Mom was very sad and angry. She took away the cards and sent the boys to their rooms. They had no more games to play. They had no more fun. They had no more share. They had a bad ending. +Tom was a curious boy who liked to play with magnets. He had a big magnet and a small magnet, and he liked to see how they stuck together or pushed away. He also liked to find things that were made of metal and make them stick to his magnets. + +One day, it was raining outside. Tom could not go out and play with his friends. He was bored and sad. He looked out the window and saw the raindrops falling on the roof and the street. He wondered if the rain was made of metal too. + +He had an idea. He took his big magnet and ran to the door. He opened the door a little bit and held the magnet outside. He hoped the raindrops would stick to his magnet and make it heavy. He thought that would be fun. + +But nothing happened. The raindrops did not stick to his magnet. They just kept falling and wetting his hand and his magnet. Tom was confused and disappointed. He closed the door and went back to his room. + +He asked his mom why the rain did not stick to his magnet. His mom smiled and hugged him. She told him that the rain was not made of metal, but of water. Water was a different thing that did not stick to magnets. She showed him a glass of water and a spoon. She put the spoon in the water and took it out. The spoon was wet, but not sticky. She told him that water was good for drinking and washing and growing plants, but not for playing with magnets. + +Tom learned something new that day. He was still curious, but he was also happy. He decided to play with his magnets and his metal toys inside, and wait for the sun to come out again. He knew that there were many more things to discover and explore in the world. He was a curious boy who liked to learn. +Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and slide and swing. They saw an old figure sitting on a bench. He had a long beard and a hat. He looked sad. + +"Who is he?" Sara asked Tom. + +"I don't know. Maybe he is lost. Let's go and talk to him," Tom said. + +They walked to the bench and leaned close to the old figure. + +"Hello, sir. What is your name?" Sara said. + +The old figure looked at them and smiled. He had kind eyes. + +"Hello, children. My name is Sam. I'm not lost. I'm just lonely. I have no friends or family," he said. + +Sara and Tom felt sorry for Sam. They wanted to help him. + +"That's not good. Everyone needs friends. Do you want to play with us?" Tom said. + +Sam nodded. He was happy. He got up from the bench and followed Sara and Tom. They played tag and catch and hide and seek. They laughed and had fun. + +Sam felt young again. He thanked Sara and Tom for being his friends. They hugged him and said they would come back to see him. + +Sara and Tom learned that old figures can be nice and fun. They also learned that they can make someone happy by being kind. They were glad they met Sam. +Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big slide. Sara wants to go first, but Tom says no. He runs to the slide and climbs up the ladder. + +"Wait for me!" Sara says. She follows him, but she is slower. Tom reaches the top and sits on the slide. He smiles and says, "Bye-bye, Sara!" + +He pushes himself down the slide. But the slide is wet and slippery. Tom goes too fast and loses his balance. He screams and falls off the slide. He lands on the grass and hurts his arm. + +Sara sees what happens and gasps. She runs down the ladder and goes to Tom. She sees him crying and holding his arm. She feels sorry for him and hugs him. + +"Are you okay, Tom?" she asks. + +Tom sniffles and says, "No, it hurts. I want mom and dad." + +Sara looks around and sees their mom and dad coming. They heard Tom's scream and ran to the slide. They see Sara and Tom on the grass and rush to them. + +"What happened, sweeties?" mom asks. + +"Tom slipped on the slide and fell," Sara says. + +"Oh, poor Tom. Let me see your arm," dad says. He gently lifts Tom's arm and checks for bruises. He says, "It's not broken, but it's sore. We need to put some ice on it." + +He picks up Tom and carries him to a bench. Mom follows him with Sara. She says, "You were very brave, Sara. You helped your brother and stayed calm." + +Sara smiles and says, "Thank you, mom. I love Tom, even when he is mean." + +Tom hears her and says, "I'm sorry, Sara. I love you too. You can go first on the slide next time." + +Sara nods and says, "Okay, Tom. But be careful. The slide is slippery." + +They hug and make up. Mom and dad smile and say, "We love you both. You are our world." +Sam and Mia liked to play with their toy boat. They pretended it was a real boat and they were sailors. They used a cushion as a sail and a stick as a mast. They put the boat on the floor and pushed it around. + +One day, they saw a huge puddle in the park. It looked like a lake. They wanted to sail their boat on the water. They ran to the puddle with their boat and their cushion. + +"Let me hold the cushion!" Sam said. + +"No, I want to hold it!" Mia said. + +They both pulled the cushion and it ripped. The stuffing came out and flew in the air. The wind blew the cushion away. Sam and Mia were sad and angry. + +They looked at their boat. It had no sail. They looked at the puddle. It had no waves. They looked at each other. They had no fun. + +They hugged and said sorry. They decided to share the cushion and the boat. They fixed the cushion with some tape. They put the boat on the puddle and held the cushion together. The boat sailed on the water. Sam and Mia smiled and laughed. They had fun. +Anna liked to do yoga with her mom. Yoga was when they made funny shapes with their bodies and breathed slowly. Anna thought yoga was fun and good for her. She wanted to show her friend Ben how to do yoga too. + +One day, Anna invited Ben to play at her house. She took him to her room, where she had a yoga mat and a book with pictures of yoga poses. She said to Ben, "Do you want to do yoga with me? It is very fun and good for you." + +Ben looked at the mat and the book. He was curious. He had never done yoga before. He asked Anna, "What is yoga? How do you do it?" + +Anna smiled and said, "Yoga is when you make funny shapes with your body and breathe slowly. Like this." She showed him how to do a pose called downward dog. She looked like a dog with her hands and feet on the floor and her bottom in the air. + +Ben laughed. He thought Anna looked silly. He said, "That is not a funny shape. That is a silly shape. I don't want to do yoga. I want to play with your toys." + +Anna frowned. She liked her toys, but she liked yoga more. She said, "No, Ben. Yoga is not silly. Yoga is fun and good for you. You should try it. Please, do yoga with me." + +Ben shook his head. He did not want to try yoga. He said, "No, Anna. I don't want to do yoga. I want to play with your toys. Let's go to your toy box." + +Anna was sad. She wanted Ben to do yoga with her. She said, "No, Ben. We can play with my toys later. First, we have to do yoga. I insist. Yoga is good for us. Come on, do yoga with me." + +Ben was stubborn. He did not want to do yoga. He said, "No, Anna. I don't want to do yoga. I want to play with your toys. I insist. Toys are more fun. Come on, play with me." + +Anna and Ben looked at each other. They both wanted to play, but they wanted to play different things. They did not know what to do. They were stuck. +Lily and Max were playing with their toys on the couch. They liked to make noises and pretend they were animals or cars or superheroes. They had a lot of fun together. + +But then they heard their mom call from the kitchen. "Lily and Max, it's time for dinner! Come and wash your hands!" + +Lily and Max did not want to stop playing. They wanted to delay dinner. They looked at each other and had an idea. + +"Mom, we can't come right now!" Lily shouted. "We are very busy!" + +"Yes, mom, we have a lot of work to do!" Max added. "We are saving the world!" + +Mom smiled and shook her head. She knew they were just playing. She decided to let them have a few more minutes of fun. She was not in a hurry. She felt peaceful. + +"Okay, okay, you can delay dinner for a little while. But not too long, okay? The food will get cold. And I made your favorite, spaghetti and meatballs!" + +Lily and Max cheered. They loved spaghetti and meatballs. They thanked their mom and went back to playing. They knew they had the best mom in the world. And they had the best couch to play on. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big hive on a tree. It had many bees inside. + +"Look, bees!" Tom said. "They make honey. I want some honey." + +"No, Tom, don't go near the hive!" Lily said. "The bees will sting you. It will hurt a lot." + +But Tom did not listen. He was tough. He wanted to show Lily he was not afraid. He threw a stick at the hive. He wanted to make the bees come out. + +The stick hit the hive. The bees were angry. They flew out of the hive. They buzzed loudly. They chased Tom. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried. He ran away. He had many stings on his face and arms. He was not tough anymore. He was sorry. + +Lily ran after him. She helped him go inside the house. She gave him some ice. She was kind. + +"Tom, why did you do that?" Lily asked. "You know the bees don't like it when you bother them. They only display their honey, they don't share it." + +"I was silly," Tom said. "I wanted to be tough. But I was not. I was stupid. I'm sorry, Lily. And I'm sorry, bees." + +Lily hugged him. She said, "It's okay, Tom. You learned your lesson. Next time, be nice to the bees. And don't throw sticks at hives." +Lily and Sam liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, run, and swing. One day, they saw a big rock near the swings. It was shiny and had many colors. + +"Look, Lily, a mineral!" Sam said. He knew some big words from his books. + +"What is a mineral?" Lily asked. She touched the rock. It was hard and cold. + +"A mineral is a thing that comes from the ground. It is not alive, like a plant or an animal. Some minerals are pretty, like this one," Sam explained. + +"Can we take it home?" Lily wondered. She liked pretty things. + +"No, we can't. It belongs to the park. Maybe someone put it here for us to see. We can look at it, but we have to leave it here," Sam said. + +"Okay," Lily agreed. She looked at the rock some more. Then she saw something else. It was a small, white, fluffy thing. It was on the grass, near the rock. + +"Look, Sam, a feather!" Lily said. She picked it up. It was soft and light. + +"A feather is a thing that comes from a bird. It is alive, but not anymore. Some feathers are pretty, like this one," Sam said. + +"Can we take it home?" Lily asked. She liked soft things. + +"Yes, we can. It is not part of the park. Maybe a bird dropped it here for us to find. We can keep it, but we have to be gentle with it," Sam said. + +"Okay," Lily agreed. She held the feather in her hand. Then she had an idea. + +"Let's swing with the feather!" Lily said. + +"Let's swing with the mineral!" Sam said. + +They ran to the swings. They put the feather and the mineral in their pockets. They swung high and low, feeling the wind and the sun. They were happy. They liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, run, and swing. They liked to find new things. They liked to share them with each other. +Sara and Ben are twins. They share a room and a bed. They like to play and read books before they sleep. But tonight, they have a problem. Their bed is broken. The mattress has a big hole in it. It is not soft and cozy anymore. It is hard and lumpy. + +"Mama, mama, our bed is broken!" Sara cries. "We can't sleep on it. It hurts our backs." + +Mama comes to their room. She sees the hole in the mattress. She is sorry for Sara and Ben. She says, "Oh, dear. I'm sorry, my loves. We need a new mattress. But we can't get one tonight. The shops are closed. We have to delay it until tomorrow." + +Sara and Ben are sad. They don't want to delay it. They want to sleep on a good bed. They ask, "Where will we sleep, mama? Can we sleep with you and papa?" + +Mama thinks for a moment. She says, "No, my loves. Our bed is too small for four. But I have an idea. We can make a camp in the living room. We can use the sofa, the pillows, the blankets, and the teddy bears. We can pretend we are on an adventure. How does that sound?" + +Sara and Ben smile. They like the idea. They say, "Yes, mama. That sounds fun. Let's make a camp. Maybe we can tell stories and sing songs, too." + +Mama hugs them. She says, "All right, my loves. Let's make a camp. But first, we have to brush our teeth and put on our pajamas. Come on, let's go." + +Sara and Ben follow mama. They are happy. They forget about the broken bed. They look forward to the camp. They think it will be a cozy and fun night. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to walk with their mom and dad. They live in a big house with a big garden. They have many toys and books. They are wealthy. + +One day, they walk to the shop with their mom. The shop has many things to buy. Anna sees a doll with a pink dress. She wants the doll. Ben sees a car with four wheels. He wants the car. They ask their mom to buy them the doll and the car. + +But their mom says no. She says they have enough toys at home. She says they should be happy with what they have. She says they should share with others who have less. She says they should be kind and generous. + +Anna and Ben are sad. They do not understand why their mom says no. They think she is mean. They cry and whine. They do not want to walk back home. + +Their mom is patient. She hugs them and tells them she loves them. She says she is not mean. She says she wants them to learn to be grateful and helpful. She says they can buy something else for someone who needs it more. She says they can make someone else happy. + +Anna and Ben think about what their mom says. They wipe their tears and nod. They say they are sorry. They say they love their mom. They walk back home with their mom. They look for someone who needs something more than they do. They are wealthy, but they also want to be good. +Tom and Anna like to play with their toys in the garden. They have a big box of cars, dolls, balls and blocks. One day, they find a shiny glass bottle in the grass. It is very pretty and has a cork on top. + +They want to see what is inside the bottle, so they pull the cork out. A big cloud of smoke comes out of the bottle and makes them cough. Then, a voice says, "Hello, I am a genie. You have set me free from the bottle. I will grant you one wish each. What do you want?" + +Tom and Anna are very surprised and excited. They think hard about what they want. Tom says, "I want to be fast. I want to run faster than anyone and win all the races." The genie nods and snaps his fingers. Tom feels a rush of energy in his legs. He runs around the garden, laughing and shouting, "Look at me, I am so fast!" + +Anna says, "I want to restore. I want to fix everything that is broken and make it new again." The genie nods and snaps his fingers. Anna feels a warm glow in her hands. She picks up a broken doll, a cracked ball and a bent car. She touches them gently and they become whole and shiny again. She smiles and says, "Look at me, I can restore anything!" + +Tom and Anna are very happy with their wishes. They thank the genie and ask him to go back to the bottle. The genie says, "I am glad you are happy, but I do not want to go back to the bottle. It is dark and lonely there. Can I stay with you and be your friend?" Tom and Anna think for a moment. They like the genie and they have room for one more toy. They say, "Yes, you can stay with us and be our friend. But you have to promise not to use your magic without asking us first." The genie agrees and hugs them. They put the cork back on the bottle and put it in their box. They play together in the garden, having fun with their toys and their new friend. +Lily was a regular girl who liked to play with her toys and read books. She had a big brother, Ben, who sometimes helped her with hard words. But Ben also liked to tease her and make her angry. One day, he took her favorite doll and hid it under his bed. + +Lily looked for her doll everywhere, but she could not find it. She asked Ben, but he said he did not know where it was. He smiled and said, "Maybe it ran away because you are too wet." Lily did not understand what he meant. She was not wet. She was dry and clean. + +She started to cry and ran to her mom. Her mom hugged her and asked her what was wrong. Lily told her about her doll and what Ben said. Her mom frowned and said, "Ben is being mean. He is trying to make fun of you because you still wear diapers at night. But that is okay. Many regular kids wear diapers at night. You are not wet. You are just learning to stay dry. And you will find your doll soon. Come on, let's go look together." + +Lily felt better and nodded. She followed her mom to Ben's room. Her mom lifted his bed and found the doll. She gave it to Lily and said, "Here it is. It was hiding under Ben's bed. He must have taken it when you were not looking. That is not nice. We will talk to him later. But now, you can play with your doll and be happy." + +Lily hugged her doll and thanked her mom. She was happy to have her doll back. She did not care what Ben said. She knew he was wrong. She was a regular girl who liked to play with her toys and read books. And she was learning to stay dry. She understood that. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play with his toys and his favorite toy was a red car. One day, Timmy was playing with his car and he accidentally knocked it off the table. The car fell to the ground and broke into pieces. + +Timmy was sad and didn't know what to do. His mom saw him crying and asked him what was wrong. Timmy told his mom what happened and his mom said, "Don't worry Timmy, we can fix your car." Timmy felt better and said, "Thank you, Mommy." + +Later that day, Timmy's friend Jack came over to play. Jack saw Timmy's broken car and said, "Wow, that's a popular car. Can I play with it?" Timmy said, "Sure, but be careful." Jack played with the car and accidentally broke it even more. Timmy was upset and wanted to escape from Jack's house. He said, "I need to go home now." Jack said, "Wait, Timmy, don't go. Let's fix the car together." Timmy leaned in and said, "Okay, let's fix it." +Once upon a time, there was a boy named Timmy who loved his blue toy car. He played with it all day long and never let anyone else touch it.

Billy saw the blue car and said, "That's a cool car, can I play with it?" + +Timmy didn't want to share his favorite toy, but he suggested they play with something else instead. They played with blocks and had fun building a tower. But Billy kept looking at the blue car and Timmy could tell he really wanted to play with it. + +Finally, Timmy gave in and let Billy play with the car. But as soon as Billy started playing with it, he accidentally broke it. Timmy was so upset and started crying. Billy felt bad and apologized, but it was too late. The blue car was broken and Timmy couldn't play with it anymore. + +The moral of the story is that sharing is important and sometimes it's better to share than to be selfish. Timmy learned that it's okay to let other people play with his toys, but he also learned that he should take care of his things so they don't get broken. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She lived in a hut with her mommy and daddy. One day, Lily went outside to play and accidentally left the door open. + +Her mommy said, "Lily, please shut the door. It's cold outside." + +Lily tried to shut the door, but it was stuck. She was persistent and kept trying until she finally got it shut. + +Suddenly, Lily heard a voice coming from the bushes. It was a little bird who said, "Thank you for shutting the door. Now, I can stay warm too." Lily smiled and replied, "You're welcome, little bird." From that day on, Lily always made sure to shut the door tightly. +Once upon a time, there was a white bunny. The bunny was very popular among the other animals in the forest. One day, a sneaky fox came along and stole the bunny. The other animals searched and searched, but they couldn't find the bunny anywhere. + +Days went by, and the animals began to lose hope. They missed their friend, the white bunny. Then, one day, they found the bunny's remains. The fox had taken the bunny's life and left its body behind. The animals were very sad and angry. They decided to catch the fox and punish it for what it had done. + +In the end, they caught the fox and made sure it would never steal or hurt anyone again. The animals missed their dear friend, the white bunny, but they knew it was in a better place now. They would never forget the bunny's kindness and popularity in the forest. +Once upon a time, there was a farmer who had a mule. The mule was strong and could carry heavy things. One day, the farmer needed the mule to lead his cart to the market. But the mule had a broken leg and couldn't walk. + +The farmer didn't know what to do. He needed to sell his goods at the market, but he couldn't go without the mule. So, he decided to carry the mule on his back and walk to the market. + +It was a long and hard journey, but the farmer was determined to sell his goods. However, halfway there, the farmer became very tired and couldn't carry the mule anymore. He had to leave the mule behind and continue on his own. + +When the farmer finally arrived at the market, he didn't sell anything. He was too sad about leaving his mule behind. The farmer realized that he should have taken better care of his mule and not pushed it too hard. From that day on, the farmer promised to always take care of his animals and never lead them to harm. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to watch the stars at night with her mommy. One night, they saw a comet in the sky. It was brilliant! + +Lily asked her mommy, "What is that?" + +"It's a comet," mommy said. "It's like a shooting star, but bigger." + +Lily observed the comet for a long time. She thought it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. + +The next night, Lily went outside to look for the comet again. But it wasn't there. She asked her mommy where it went. + +"I'm not sure," mommy said. "Sometimes comets only come around once in a very long time." + +Lily was sad that she couldn't see the comet again. She wished it would come back. But it never did. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to eat celery because it was crunchy and good for her. One day, she went to the grocery store with her mom to buy some yellow bananas. + +While they were walking in the store, they saw a man playing music on his guitar. Lily clapped her hands and said, "Yay, he's good! Let's applaud him!" Her mom smiled and joined in, clapping too. + +After they finished shopping, they went home and had some celery for a snack.
