+His mom smiled and said, "No, it's time to go to school. Come on now, you'll have so much fun!"

+
+They looked through a book of sports and found one that looked fun. Then Lucy said, "Let's come play! I'm ready!"
+
+So, Lucy and her mom went to the park. They were very excited to do the sport. When they got there, some kids were playing a game. It was a game of tag. Lucy looked at her mom and said, "Can we come play with them?" Her mom said, "Yes, that's a thoughtful idea."

+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lila. She loved to take naps. One day, she decided to take her nap in a very unique place. She put her special file of toys and a nice blanket into her toy box and took it all to the park. 
+
+Once there, Lila found a nice spot underneath a big tree. She put her blanket down and opened her file of toys. Then she cuddled up in the blanket and started to drift off to sleep. 
+
+Suddenly, something large and furry tapped her on the shoulder. It was a big brown bear! The bear said, "such a unique nap spot for such a little girl!" Lila was very scared at first, but the bear was very friendly.
+
+The bear told Lila funny jokes and stories, until Lila fell into a deep, peaceful sleep. When she woke up, she was back in her bedroom, her file of toys tucked safely in her toybox.

+
+Joe said to Flo: "Let's go play. I know how to make you smile!"

+
+Joe said:"Don't worry. I'm sure the apple tree will be okay. Let's go outside and take a look."
+
+So Flo and Joe went outside. They looked at the apple tree and saw that it was healthy, strong, and even cute with its pink blossom.

+
+Mummy laughed. "Don't worry, sweetheart," she said. "Let's get that thumb out!" But try as they might, the thumb wouldn't budge.

+
+Suddenly, his mom ran out of the house. “Jake, don’t go near the ice cream truck! It’s dangerous!†said Mom.

+
+One day Abigail noticed a big, soft cushion in the corner of the living room. She quickly ran over and picked it up, only to realise it was too heavy to carry.
+
+"What should I do?" she asked her mum.
+
+"Let's see," replied her mum. "We can try to cut the cushion in half. That would make it much lighter and easier to move around."
+
+Abigail was excited to try this new idea. She got out the scissors and started cutting into the cushion carefully. Soon she had two halves instead of one.
+
+With a bit of help from her mum, Abigail managed to lift both of the cushions and move them around the house. She enjoyed being so adventurous and playing around with the new cushions!

The bird was so proud of himself and forever grateful to his mommy for that special advice!

+
+The two friends said hello and then the black cap asked the red cap if he wanted to go on an adventure. The red cap said "Yes!" So they both began to run, ringing all the way. 
+
+The black cap and red cap had so much fun that day. They rung and danced wherever they went. When night time came, they lay down and watched the stars twinkle and they both said "Goodnight" before they fell asleep.

+
+The big lump of clay was so big that everyone wanted to touch it. They wanted to see what it felt like. But nobody was brave enough to get close.

+
+He said to her, "I've got this healthy paint and you have something I want. What do you want to trade for it?" Susie thought for a minute and then offered him bubbles. 
+
+Billy liked the idea, so he gave Susie the paint and they both went to the backyard to trade. Billy made the bubbles and Susie painted a beautiful picture with her new paint. They were both happy with the trade.

+The magical force grew stronger and the voice replied,
+

+
+Finally, one day, Zoe mustered up the courage to sit on the toilet. She was so proud of herself, and her mommy and daddy praised her with love and hugs.

+
+"No, I want it!" Ben said. "You always get what you want!"
+
+They both pulled the branch and tried to take it from each other. The branch snapped and fell to the ground. They heard a loud crack.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben said. "We broke the branch!"
+
+They felt sad and sorry. They liked the tree and did not want to hurt it. They looked at the branch and saw something shiny. It was a necklace with a red stone.
+
+"Wow!" Lily and Ben said. "What is this?"
+
+They picked up the necklace and looked at it. It was very pretty and sparkly. They wondered who left it there.
+
+"Maybe it belongs to a fairy!" Lily said. "Maybe she will come back for it!"
+
+"Or maybe it is a treasure!" Ben said. "Maybe we can keep it!"
+
+They both liked the necklace and wanted to have it. They started to argue again.
+
+"Let me have the necklace!" Lily said. "It matches my dress!"
+
+"No, I want it!" Ben said. "It is more valuable than a branch!"
+
+They both pulled the necklace and tried to take it from each other. The necklace broke and the red stone fell to the ground. They heard a loud pop.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben said. "We broke the necklace!"
+
+They felt worse and more sorry. They liked the necklace and did not want to lose it. They looked at the red stone and saw something strange. It was not a stone at all. It was a candy.
+
+"Wow!" Lily and Ben said. "What is this?"
+
+They picked up the candy and smelled it. It was very sweet and spicy. They wondered what it tasted like.
+
+"Maybe it is a magic candy!" Lily said. "Maybe it will make us fly!"
+
+"Or maybe it is a trick candy!" Ben said. "Maybe it will make us sneeze!"
+
+They both wanted to try the candy and see what happened. They decided to share it and break it in half.
+
+"Okay, let's eat it together!" Lily said. "On the count of three!"
+
+"One, two, three!" Ben said.
+
+They both put the candy in their mouths and bit it. They felt a hot and sour sensation. They made a funny face and spit it out.
+
+"Yuck!" Lily and Ben said. "This candy is too spicy!"
+
+They felt silly and laughed. They realized they had been foolish and greedy. They did not need the branch or the necklace or the candy. They had each other and that was enough.
+
+"Sorry for fighting with you!" Lily said. "You are my best friend!"
+
+"Sorry for fighting with you too!" Ben said. "You are my best friend too!"
+
+They hugged and smiled. They threw away the candy and the necklace and the branch. They climbed the tree again and pretended they were birds. They sang a happy song and had fun. They learned to value what they had and not what they wanted. They lived happily ever after. The end.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play outside. But today it was very cold. The wind blew and the snow fell.
+
+"Let's make a snowman!" said Lily. "It will be fun!"
+
+"OK!" said Tom. "But we need a carrot, a hat and a scarf."
+
+They ran to their houses and got what they needed. Then they went to the park. They rolled big balls of snow. They put one on top of the other. They made a face with the carrot and some stones. They put the hat and the scarf on the snowman.
+
+"Look!" said Lily. "He is a regular snowman. He has two eyes, a nose, a mouth, a hat and a scarf."
+
+"But he is not regular," said Tom. "He is special. He is our snowman. We made him together. We succeed!"
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They were happy. They liked their snowman. They liked to play outside. Even when it was very cold.
+Jill and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big truck with a sign. The sign says "Ice Cream". Jill and Ben love ice cream. They run to the truck.
+
+"Hello, kids. What do you want?" the man in the truck asks.
+
+"I want a cone with chocolate ice cream, please," Jill says.
+
+"I want a cone with vanilla ice cream, please," Ben says.
+
+The man gives them their cones. They look yummy. Jill and Ben lick their ice cream.
+
+"Thank you, mister," they say.
+
+"You're welcome, kids. Enjoy your ice cream. And here's a tip: don't let it melt in the sun," the man says.
+
+Jill and Ben nod. They know ice cream melts in the sun. They find a shady spot under a tree. They sit on the grass and eat their ice cream. They are happy. They share their ice cream with each other.
+
+"Your chocolate ice cream is yummy," Ben says.
+
+"Your vanilla ice cream is yummy, too," Jill says.
+
+They finish their ice cream. They throw their cones in the trash. They wipe their mouths with their hands. They smile at each other.
+
+"That was the best ice cream ever," they say.
+
+They hug and run to the swings. They play some more. They are good friends. They like ice cream.
+Lily and Ben are playful twins who like to run and jump and laugh. One day, they go to the park with their mom and dad. They see a big slide, a swing, a sandbox and a ball. They want to try everything.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, I can go down the slide so fast!" Lily yells as she slides down with a big smile.
+
+"Me too, me too, watch me!" Ben yells as he follows his sister.
+
+They take turns on the slide, then they run to the swing. They push each other higher and higher, feeling the wind in their hair.
+
+"Wee, this is fun!" Lily yells.
+
+"More, more, push me more!" Ben yells.
+
+They swing for a while, then they run to the sandbox. They dig and build and make shapes with the sand. They use sticks and stones and leaves to decorate their creations.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, I made a castle!" Lily yells, showing her sandcastle.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, I made a car!" Ben yells, showing his sandcar.
+
+They are proud of their work, and they want to show it to their mom and dad. They run to the bench where their mom and dad are sitting. But they forget to look at the road. A big car is coming fast. It honks loudly.
+
+"Stop, stop, Lily, Ben, stop!" their mom yells, scared.
+
+"Look, look, a car, a car, watch out!" their dad yells, worried.
+
+Lily and Ben hear their mom and dad. They stop and look at the car. It is very close. They are scared. They run back to the sandbox. The car passes by. It is gone.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily, Ben, are you okay?" their mom asks, hugging them.
+
+"Yes, mom, we are okay, we are sorry, we forgot to look at the road," Lily says, crying.
+
+"Yes, mom, we are okay, we are sorry, we forgot to look at the road," Ben says, crying.
+
+Their dad joins them and hugs them too.
+
+"It's okay, Lily, Ben, it's okay, you are safe now, but you have to be careful, you have to look at the road before you cross, okay?" their dad says, soothing them.
+
+"Okay, dad, we will, we promise, we love you," Lily says, sniffling.
+
+"Okay, dad, we will, we promise, we love you," Ben says, sniffling.
+
+Their mom and dad kiss them and wipe their tears. They smile and say they love them too. They say they are proud of their sandcastle and sandcar. They say they can play some more, but they have to stay in the park and not run to the road. Lily and Ben nod and say okay. They hug their mom and dad again. Then they go back to the sandbox. They are playful again. They are happy again.
+Bunny was a compassionate friend. He liked to help others who were sad or hurt. One day, he saw a bird with a broken wing on the ground. He hopped over to the bird and asked, "Are you okay?"
+
+The bird shook his head and said, "No, I can't fly. I fell from the tree and hurt my wing. I'm scared and alone."
+
+Bunny felt sorry for the bird and said, "Don't worry, I'll help you. Come with me, I know a safe place." He gently lifted the bird with his paws and carried him to his home.
+
+Bunny's home was a cozy burrow under a big lamp. The lamp gave warm light and made the burrow feel like a sunny day. Bunny put the bird on a soft bed of hay and said, "This is my home. You can stay here until your wing gets better. I'll bring you some seeds and water."
+
+The bird smiled and said, "Thank you, Bunny. You are very kind and compassionate. You are my new friend."
+
+Bunny smiled back and said, "You're welcome, Bird. I'm happy to have you as my friend. Now, let's rest and hop tomorrow." They snuggled together and fell asleep under the lamp.
+Lily and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat something yummy. They saw a can of tuna on the shelf. They liked tuna very much.
+
+"Let's open the can and make a sandwich," Lily said.
+
+"OK, but how do we open it?" Ben asked.
+
+They looked for a tool to open the can. They found a knife, a spoon, and a fork. They tried to use them, but they could not. The can was too hard and the tools were too weak.
+
+They felt helpless. They could not eat the tuna. They were sad and angry.
+
+Then they heard a meow. It was their cat, Max. He smelled the tuna and came to see. He jumped on the shelf and knocked the can down. The can rolled on the floor and hit the wall. It made a loud noise and a small hole.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the can. They saw some tuna coming out of the hole. They were happy and surprised.
+
+"Look, Max opened the can for us!" Lily said.
+
+"Thank you, Max! You are a smart cat!" Ben said.
+
+They put some tuna on a slice of bread. They gave some tuna to Max. They ate their sandwich and shared with their cat. They were not hungry anymore. They were full and happy.
+Lily and Ben were having breakfast with Mom and Dad. They liked toast with butter and jam. It was tasty and warm.
+
+Mom gave them each a plate with two slices of toast. Lily took a big bite of her toast and smiled. Ben tried to do the same, but his toast was too big for his mouth. He could not fit it in.
+
+"Ben, you have to break your toast in smaller pieces," Mom said. "Like this." She showed him how to tear the toast with her fingers.
+
+Ben nodded and did what Mom said. He broke his toast in half and then in half again. He put one piece in his mouth and chewed. It was much easier and still tasty.
+
+"Good job, Ben," Dad said. "Now you can eat your toast without making a mess."
+
+"Thank you, Dad," Ben said. He swallowed his toast and reached for another piece. He looked at Lily and smiled. She smiled back and they both ate their toast happily.
+Tommy was a little mouse who lived in a big house with his family. He liked to explore the house and find new things to play with. One day, he found a shiny ball that rolled and bounced. He wanted to show it to his sister, Tina, who was in the kitchen.
+
+He ran across the hall, but he did not see the big cat that was sleeping on the sofa. The cat opened one eye and saw Tommy with the ball. He jumped off the sofa and chased Tommy, who was very scared. He dropped the ball and ran as fast as he could.
+
+He reached the kitchen and saw Tina, who was nibbling on a piece of cheese. He shouted, "Tina, help! The cat is after me!" Tina saw the cat and quickly hid behind a pot. She said, "Tommy, come here! We can hide together!"
+
+Tommy ran towards Tina, but the cat was faster. He pounced on Tommy and caught him with his paw. He lifted him up and said, "Ha! I got you, little mouse! You will be my snack today!"
+
+Tommy was very sad and afraid. He shivered in the cat's paw and said, "Please, don't eat me! I have a family and friends! I just wanted to play with the ball!"
+
+The cat was about to bite Tommy, when he heard a loud voice. It was the elderly lady who lived in the house. She saw the cat with Tommy and said, "Bad cat! Leave that mouse alone! He is not your toy! Drop him now!"
+
+The cat was surprised and scared. He dropped Tommy and ran away. The elderly lady picked up Tommy and said, "Poor little mouse! Are you hurt? Don't worry, I won't hurt you. I like mice. They are cute and smart. Come, I will take you to your family."
+
+She carried Tommy to the hole where his family lived. She put him down and said, "Here you go, little mouse. Be careful and stay away from the cat. He is very naughty and mean. Have a nice day!"
+
+Tommy was very happy and grateful. He thanked the elderly lady and hugged her. He said, "Thank you, kind lady! You saved my life! You are very nice and sweet. Have a nice day, too!"
+
+He ran inside the hole and found Tina, who was waiting for him. She was very happy to see him. She said, "Tommy, you are safe! I was so worried about you! Are you okay?"
+
+Tommy said, "I am okay, Tina. The cat almost ate me, but the lady saved me. She was very nice to me. She likes mice. She gave me back the ball. Do you want to play with it?"
+
+Tina said, "Yes, I do! But first, let's hug and say we love each other. You are my brother and my best friend. I am glad you are here with me."
+
+They hugged and said they loved each other. Then they played with the ball and had fun. They were happy and safe. They did not see the cat again. The end.
+Tom and Mia were at the beach with their new toy boat. They liked to make the boat sail on the water and watch it go fast. They pretended they were pirates and had a lot of fun.
+
+"Look, Mia, there is a big fish!" Tom said, pointing to something in the water. "Maybe it is a whale or a dolphin."
+
+Mia looked and saw a gray shape with a fin. She felt scared. "No, Tom, that is not a fish. That is a shark! Sharks are bad. They have sharp teeth and they can bite us. We have to get our boat back!"
+
+Tom and Mia ran to the shore and tried to pull their boat with a string. But the string was too thin and it broke. The boat was still on the water, near the shark.
+
+"Oh no, our boat!" Tom cried. "We have to save it!"
+
+But before they could do anything, the shark swam to the boat and bit it. The boat split in two and sank. The shark swam away.
+
+Tom and Mia were very sad. They had lost their new toy boat. They hugged each other and cried.
+
+Their mom came and saw them. She asked them what happened. They told her about the shark and the boat.
+
+"I'm sorry, my loves," she said. "That was a mean shark. But don't worry, we can get you another boat. And we can go to another beach where there are no sharks. Come on, let's go home and have some ice cream."
+
+Tom and Mia nodded. They still felt sad, but they also felt a little better. They liked ice cream and they loved their mom. They hoped they would never see a shark again.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were explorers, looking for treasure. They saw a big fireplace on the wall. It had a metal screen in front of it.
+
+"Maybe there is something behind the screen," Lily said. "Let's remove it and see."
+
+Tom nodded. He pulled on the screen, but it was heavy and stuck. He pulled harder, and the screen came off with a loud clang. Lily and Tom gasped. Behind the screen, there was a small fire. It was burning some logs and making smoke.
+
+Lily and Tom were frightened. They knew fire was dangerous. They ran to the door and shouted for help. "Mom! Dad! There is a fire in the fireplace!"
+
+Mom and Dad heard them and came quickly. They saw the fire and the screen on the floor. They were angry and scared. They grabbed a bucket of water and poured it on the fire. The fire hissed and went out.
+
+Mom and Dad hugged Lily and Tom. They were glad they were not hurt. They told them to never touch the fireplace again. They said it was only for grown-ups to use, and only when it was cold outside.
+
+Lily and Tom said they were sorry. They did not know there was a fire behind the screen. They said they would not play with the fireplace again. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with their toys instead.
+Tommy was a little boy who liked to imagine. He imagined he was a pirate, a superhero, a dinosaur, and many other things. He had a lot of fun playing with his toys and making up stories.
+
+But when it was time for bed, Tommy did not want to stop imagining. He said to his mommy, "I don't want to go to sleep. I want to keep imagining."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "You can still imagine in your dreams, Tommy. Dreams are like stories that your mind makes up when you are sleepy. You can go to any place and be anything you want in your dreams."
+
+Tommy thought about that. He wondered what he would dream about tonight. Maybe he would dream about flying in a rocket, or swimming with the fish, or riding a horse. He said, "Okay, mommy. I will try to dream."
+
+Mommy tucked him in his crib and kissed him goodnight. She said, "I love you, Tommy. Have sweet dreams."
+
+Tommy closed his eyes and felt sleepy. He started to imagine. He imagined he was a pirate, a superhero, a dinosaur, and many other things. He had a lot of fun dreaming with his toys and making up stories.
+
+The moral value of the story is that imagination is a wonderful gift that can be enjoyed even when sleeping.
+Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big gray cat. The cat is sleeping on a bench.
+
+"Look, a cat!" Tim says. He runs to the cat. He wants to pet it.
+
+"Wait, Tim!" Mia says. "Be polite. Ask the cat first."
+
+Tim stops. He looks at Mia. He does not understand. "Ask the cat?" he says.
+
+"Yes, ask the cat. Say, 'Hello, cat. Can I pet you?'" Mia says. She shows Tim how to do it.
+
+Tim nods. He walks to the cat. He says, "Hello, cat. Can I pet you?"
+
+The cat opens one eye. It looks at Tim. It meows softly. It does not move.
+
+Tim smiles. He thinks the cat says yes. He pets the cat gently. The cat purrs. It closes its eye again.
+
+Mia walks to the cat too. She says, "Hello, cat. Can I pet you?"
+
+The cat opens the other eye. It looks at Mia. It meows again. It does not move.
+
+Mia smiles. She thinks the cat says yes. She pets the cat gently. The cat purrs louder. It closes both eyes.
+
+Tim and Mia are happy. They pet the cat for a long time. The cat is happy too. It becomes their friend.
+Tom was a boy who liked to play with water. He had a hose in his garden that he could turn on and off. He liked to spray water on the flowers, the grass and the dog. He also liked to spray water on his sister, Lily, who did not like it at all.
+
+One day, Tom saw a big red truck parked outside his house. It was a fire truck. Tom was curious and wanted to see the fire truck up close. He ran to the truck and saw a long hose on the side. He thought it would be fun to play with the fire hose. He did not see the firemen who were busy inside the house.
+
+Tom grabbed the hose and turned the knob. He was surprised by how much water came out of the hose. He could not manage to hold the hose. It was too strong and heavy. The hose pulled him along and sprayed water everywhere. It sprayed water on the fire truck, on the cars, on the people and on the house. It also sprayed water on the firemen who came out of the house. They were angry and wet.
+
+The firemen shouted at Tom and took the hose away from him. They told him he was very naughty and he could have caused a lot of damage. They also told him he could have hurt himself or someone else. Tom felt ashamed and scared. He was anxious that his parents would be mad at him too. He ran to his sister, Lily, who was watching from the window. She was not happy with him either. She told him he was a bad brother and she did not want to play with him anymore.
+
+Tom learned a hard lesson that day. He learned that he should not play with things that are not his. He also learned that he should not play with things that are dangerous. He learned that he should listen to the firemen and respect their work. He learned that he should be careful with water and not waste it. He learned that he should be kind to his sister and not annoy her. He wished he had not played with the fire hose. He wished he had played with his own hose in the garden instead. He wished he could say sorry to everyone. He wished he could make things right. But it was too late. He had made a big mess and a big mistake. He was very sad and sorry.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Tom has a new toy. It is a square. It is red and shiny. It can make sounds and lights.
+
+Mia sees the square. She wants to play with it. She asks Tom, "Can I have your square?"
+
+Tom says, "No, this is my square. It is expensive. My mom gave it to me. You can play with your doll."
+
+Mia is sad. She likes her doll, but she likes the square more. She thinks it is more fun. She says, "Please, Tom, let me have your square. Just for a little bit."
+
+Tom says, "No, Mia, go away. This is my square. You can't have it."
+
+Mia is angry. She thinks Tom is mean. She says, "Fine, Tom, I don't want to be your friend. You are selfish. You don't share."
+
+She takes her doll and leaves. Tom is alone. He plays with his square. But he is not happy. He misses Mia. He thinks, "Maybe I was too mean. Maybe I should share my square. Maybe Mia is still my friend."
+
+He runs after Mia. He says, "Mia, wait. I'm sorry. You can have my square. You can play with it. I want to be your friend."
+
+Mia stops. She sees Tom. She sees the square. She smiles. She says, "Thank you, Tom. You are nice. I want to be your friend too."
+
+They hug. They play with the square and the doll. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tom was a soldier. He had a big hat and a gun. He liked to march and sing with his friends. One day, he had to go to a hot place. He had to fight bad people who wanted to hurt his home.
+
+Tom was not happy in the hot place. He was very sweaty and thirsty. He missed his mom and dad and his dog. He also had a cold. He sneezed a lot. His nose was red and runny.
+
+One night, he was on guard duty. He had to watch for bad people. He had a flashlight and a radio. He was very bored and tired. He wished he could sleep. He sneezed again.
+
+"Who's there?" he heard a voice. It was his friend Sam. Sam was also a soldier. He came to check on Tom.
+
+"Hi, Sam. It's me, Tom. I'm sorry, I sneezed. I have a cold," Tom said.
+
+"Poor Tom. You sound sick. Do you want some water? I have a bottle," Sam said.
+
+"Thank you, Sam. You are very kind. Water would be nice," Tom said.
+
+Sam gave Tom some water. Tom drank it. He felt a little better. He smiled at Sam.
+
+"You're welcome, Tom. You are my friend. Friends help each other. Maybe tomorrow you will feel better. Maybe we will go home soon. I miss home, too," Sam said.
+
+"Me, too, Sam. Me, too. You are a good friend. I'm glad you are here. Maybe we can play with my dog when we go home. He likes to fetch and run," Tom said.
+
+"That sounds fun, Tom. I like dogs, too. Maybe we can also have some ice cream. I like ice cream. It is cold and sweet," Sam said.
+
+"Ice cream sounds good, Sam. I like ice cream, too. What is your favorite flavor?" Tom asked.
+
+"Chocolate. What is yours?" Sam asked.
+
+"Vanilla. Maybe we can have both. Maybe we can have a big sundae with whipped cream and cherries and nuts," Tom said.
+
+"That sounds yummy, Tom. Maybe we can. Maybe we can have anything we want when we go home," Sam said.
+
+They talked for a while. They forgot about the hot place and the bad people and the cold. They dreamed about home and dogs and ice cream. They felt happy and safe. They were friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw some flowers and bees and butterflies. They felt the sun on their skin. It was very hot.
+
+"Let's go inside and get some water," Lily said. "I'm thirsty."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. They ran to the door and opened it. But they saw something that made them stop. There was a big cake on the table. It had candles and frosting and sprinkles. It smelled yummy.
+
+"Wow!" Lily said. "What is this?"
+
+"It's a surprise!" Mommy said. She came out of the kitchen with a smile. "It's your birthday, Lily! Happy birthday, my sweet girl!"
+
+Lily gasped. She had forgotten it was her birthday. She felt happy and excited. She hugged Mommy and said, "Thank you, Mommy! I love you!"
+
+"I love you too, Lily," Mommy said. "And I love you, Ben. You helped me make the cake. Do you want to sing happy birthday to Lily?"
+
+"Yes, Mommy!" Ben said. He loved his sister very much. He wanted to make her happy. He took her hand and said, "Come on, Lily. Let's blow the candles and make a wish."
+
+Lily and Ben went to the table. They sang happy birthday with Mommy. They blew the candles and made a wish. They cut the cake and ate some. It was delicious. They felt full and warm and peaceful. They had a wonderful birthday surprise.
+One day, a little fish was swimming in the sea. He saw a big oyster on the sand. He wanted to open it and eat the pearl inside.
+
+He swam to the oyster and said, "Hello, oyster. Can I have your pearl? It is shiny and pretty."
+
+The oyster said, "No, fish. This is my pearl. It is mine and I love it. Go away and find your own."
+
+The fish was angry. He said, "You are mean, oyster. I will open you and take your pearl. I am strong and you are weak."
+
+He pushed and pulled and bit the oyster, but he could not open it. The oyster was stronger than he thought. He hurt his mouth and his fins.
+
+He cried and said, "Ow, ow, ow. You are too hard, oyster. You hurt me. Please let me go."
+
+The oyster said, "I will let you go, fish, if you promise to leave me and my pearl alone. And you should learn to be kind and share, not greedy and rude."
+
+The fish said, "I am sorry, oyster. I was wrong. I promise to leave you and your pearl alone. And I will try to be kind and share, not greedy and rude."
+
+The oyster said, "Thank you, fish. I forgive you. Now go and find some friends to play with. And remember, the best things in life are not things, but love and friendship."
+
+The fish said, "You are right, oyster. Thank you for teaching me. Goodbye and take care."
+
+He swam away and looked for some friends to play with. He was happy and learned his lesson.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Tom were twins. They liked to play outside, but today it was winter. The sky was gray and the ground was white. They could not see any flowers or birds. They felt bored.
+
+"Can we find something fun to do?" Lily asked Tom.
+
+"Maybe we can make a snowman," Tom said. "Or we can slide on the ice."
+
+They put on their coats, hats, and gloves. They went out of the house. They saw a big pile of snow. They started to roll it into a ball.
+
+"Look, we can make a snowman's body," Lily said.
+
+They rolled another ball for the snowman's head. They found two sticks for the arms, a carrot for the nose, and some stones for the eyes and mouth.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman," Tom said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The snowman did not say anything. He just smiled.
+
+Lily and Tom laughed. They felt happy. They had found something fun to do in winter. They hugged the snowman and each other. They forgot they were bored.
+Tim and Kim went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many fish. The fish were green and shiny. They swam fast and made bubbles.
+
+Tim and Kim wanted to feed the fish. Mom gave them some bread. They broke the bread into small pieces and threw them into the pond. The fish came to eat the bread. They opened their mouths and made funny noises.
+
+Tim and Kim laughed and clapped. They liked the fish. They wanted to touch the fish. They leaned over the pond and reached out their hands. But the water was cold and wet. Tim and Kim felt a shiver. They pulled back their hands and rubbed them.
+
+Mom said, "The water is too cold for you. The fish like the cold water. They have scales to keep them warm. You have skin to keep you warm. But you need a coat and gloves when it is cold outside."
+
+Tim and Kim nodded. They put on their coats and gloves. They waved goodbye to the fish. They said, "Thank you for the bread. You are very nice. We will come back soon." The fish waved back with their tails. They said, "You are welcome. You are very kind. We will see you soon."
+Tom and Sue were friends. They liked to play with toys in the yard. One day, Tom saw a big, hairy rat in the grass. He was scared and ran to Sue.
+
+"Sue, Sue, there is a rat in the yard! It is big and hairy and has sharp teeth!" Tom said.
+
+Sue did not believe Tom. She thought he was joking. She wanted to see the rat for herself.
+
+"Where is the rat, Tom? Show me. I want to see it too," Sue said.
+
+Tom did not want to go back to the yard. He was still scared. But Sue was his friend. He wanted to make her happy. He said, "OK, Sue, I will show you. But you have to lend me your teddy bear. I need it to feel brave."
+
+Sue loved her teddy bear. It was soft and cuddly and had a red bow. She did not want to lend it to Tom. But she was curious about the rat. She said, "OK, Tom, I will lend you my teddy bear. But you have to give it back to me soon. And be careful with it."
+
+Tom took Sue's teddy bear and held it tight. He walked slowly to the yard. He looked for the rat. He saw it near the fence. It was big and hairy and had sharp teeth. It was eating some cheese. Tom pointed to the rat and said, "Look, Sue, there is the rat. Do you see it?"
+
+Sue followed Tom to the yard. She looked at the rat. She was not scared. She was amazed. She said, "Wow, Tom, you are right. There is a rat in the yard. It is big and hairy and has sharp teeth. And it is eating cheese. How cool!"
+
+Sue wanted to get closer to the rat. She wanted to touch it and pet it. She said, "Tom, let me have your teddy bear. I want to give it to the rat. Maybe it will be our friend."
+
+Tom did not want to give Sue his teddy bear. He did not want to lose it. He did not want to be near the rat. He said, "No, Sue, you can't have my teddy bear. It is mine. You lent it to me. And the rat is not our friend. It is mean and scary. It will bite us."
+
+Sue did not listen to Tom. She was angry. She wanted to have the rat. She said, "Yes, Sue, I can have your teddy bear. It is mine. I gave it to you. And the rat is our friend. It is nice and cute. It will play with us."
+
+Sue grabbed the teddy bear from Tom. She ran to the rat. She said, "Hello, rat. I have a gift for you. It is a teddy bear. It is soft and cuddly and has a red bow. Do you like it?"
+
+The rat did not like the teddy bear. It did not like Sue. It was hungry and angry. It saw Sue coming. It opened its mouth. It showed its teeth. It bit Sue's hand. Sue screamed. She dropped the teddy bear. She ran away. She cried.
+
+Tom saw what happened. He was sad and sorry. He wanted to help Sue. He wanted to get the teddy bear back. He said, "Sue, Sue, are you OK? I'm sorry. I should have listened to you. I should have given you your teddy bear back. Come, let's go to your mom. She will make you feel better. And let's get your teddy bear back. The rat does not deserve it."
+
+Tom and Sue went to Sue's mom. She saw Sue's hand. She saw the blood. She was worried and angry. She said, "Sue, Sue, what happened? Who did this to you? Why are you bleeding?"
+
+Sue told her mom what happened. She told her about the rat and the teddy bear. She said, "Mom, Mom, I'm sorry. I was stupid. I wanted to be friends with the rat. I gave it my teddy bear. It bit me. It hurt me. It took my teddy bear. I want my teddy bear back."
+
+Sue's mom hugged Sue. She said, "Sue, Sue, it's OK. You are not stupid. You are brave. But you have to be careful. The rat is not your friend. It is a wild animal. It can hurt you. It does not want your teddy bear. It wants food. Come, let's go to the doctor. He will fix your hand. He will make you feel better. And let's forget about the teddy bear. It

+
+"Look, our house is so nice and cozy," said Lily. "We can sleep here and be safe."
+
+"Yes, and we have a fence to keep out the bad animals," said Tom. "Like the fox. The fox is dangerous. He wants to eat us."
+
+They heard a rustle in the bushes. They saw a red tail and a pointy nose. It was the fox. He saw the house and the fence and the rabbits. He licked his lips.
+
+"Hello, little rabbits," said the fox. "What a lovely house you have. Can I come in and visit?"
+
+"No, no, no," said Tom and Lily. "You are not our friend. You are dangerous. Go away."
+
+"But I am lonely and cold," said the fox. "Please, let me in. I will be nice to you."
+
+The fox tried to fit through the fence, but he was too big. He pushed and pulled, but he could not get in. He hurt his nose and his tail.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow," said the fox. "This fence is too hard. You are mean rabbits. I will find another way in."
+
+He ran around the fence, looking for a hole. He saw a small gap under the house. He thought he could fit through it. He crawled under the house, but he got stuck. He could not move. He was trapped.
+
+"Help, help, help," said the fox. "I am stuck. Get me out."
+
+Tom and Lily heard the fox. They were scared, but they were also brave. They ran out of the house and saw the fox. He looked silly and sad.
+
+"Ha, ha, ha," said Tom and Lily. "You are a bad fox. You tried to trick us. You tried to eat us. But you failed. You are stuck. You can't hurt us."

+
+Lily was not sure. "Tom, I don't think we should do that. Mama says the stove is hot and dangerous. We might get burned or make a mess."
+
+Tom did not listen to Lily. He was stubborn and wanted to prove he could make oats. He stirred the pot with the spoon. He did not notice the water was boiling and bubbling. He did not hear Mama coming into the kitchen.
+
+"Tom! Lily! What are you doing?" Mama shouted. She saw the pot of oats overflowing and spilling on the stove. She turned off the stove and moved the pot away. She was angry and scared.

+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry and ashamed. They realized they had been naughty and foolish. They apologized to Mama and hugged her. They learned their lesson.

+But their sister, Lily, did not want to help them. She was ignorant. She did not know how to decorate a tree. She only wanted to play with her dolls and watch TV. She said decorating was boring and silly.
+
+"Come on, Lily, please join us!" Anna said. "It will be fun and pretty. You can choose your favorite things to hang on the tree."
+
+"No, thank you," Lily said. "I don't like your things. They are too bright and noisy. They hurt my eyes and ears. I like my dolls. They are soft and quiet. They are my friends."
+
+Ben was angry. He thought Lily was rude and selfish. He said, "You are ignorant, Lily. You don't know anything. You don't know how to share and enjoy. You don't know how to make a tree beautiful. You are missing out on the fun."
+
+Lily did not care. She shrugged and went back to her room. She closed the door and turned on the TV. She hugged her dolls and smiled.
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry for Lily. They thought she was lonely and sad. They decided to decorate the tree anyway. They worked hard and had a lot of fun. They made the tree look wonderful. They were proud and happy.
+
+They wished Lily would come and see their tree. They wished Lily would learn to decorate and play with them. They wished Lily would be their friend.
+Tom was bald. He did not like his head. He wanted hair like his wife. His wife had long and soft hair. She loved Tom very much.
+
+One day, Tom saw a shop. The shop had a sign. The sign said: "We can improve your hair. Come in and try." Tom was curious. He went inside the shop.
+
+A man greeted him. The man had a lot of hair. The man said: "Hello, sir. Do you want to improve your hair? We have a special offer. You can choose any color and style you like. It is easy and fast."
+
+Tom said: "Yes, please. I want to improve my hair. I want to have hair like my wife. She has brown and curly hair. Can you do that?"
+
+The man said: "Of course, sir. No problem. Just sit here and relax. I will use this machine. It will make your hair grow in minutes. Trust me, you will look great."
+
+Tom sat on a chair. The man put a helmet on his head. The helmet had wires and buttons. The man turned on the machine. The machine made a loud noise. Tom felt a tickle on his head.
+
+After a while, the man turned off the machine. He took off the helmet. He gave Tom a mirror. Tom looked at himself. He was shocked. He had hair, but not like his wife. He had pink and spiky hair. He looked like a clown.
+
+Tom said: "What have you done? This is not what I wanted. This is not how my wife's hair looks like. This is awful. I want my money back."
+
+The man said: "Sorry, sir. There was a mistake. The machine mixed up the colors and styles. I can fix it. Just give me another chance."
+
+Tom said: "No, thank you. I don't trust you. I don't want your hair. I want my bald head back. How can I get rid of this hair?"
+
+The man said: "Well, sir. There is only one way. You have to shave it off. Here, take this razor. It is free. Good luck, sir. And have a nice day."
+
+Tom took the razor. He ran out of the shop. He went home. He shaved off his hair. He was bald again. He felt better. He hugged his wife. His wife said: "I love you, Tom. You are handsome with or without hair. You don't need to improve anything. You are perfect for me."
+
+Tom said: "Thank you, my dear. You are right. I love you, too. You are the best wife in the world. You make me happy with or without hair. You are perfect for me, too."
+Lily and Ben are playing with their crayons. They like to draw animals and flowers and cars. Lily has a lot of colors, but Ben only has a few. He wants to use Lily's colors, but she does not want to share.
+
+"Can I have the red color, please?" Ben asks Lily. "I want to draw a fire truck."
+
+"No, you can't," Lily says. "The red color is mine. You have your own colors."
+
+"But I only have blue and green and yellow," Ben says. "They are boring colors. I want to try something new."
+
+Lily shakes her head. "No, no, no. The red color is mine. Go away."
+
+Ben feels sad and angry. He does not like Lily's harsh words. He thinks she is mean and selfish. He wants to make her sorry. He looks around and sees a pair of scissors on the table. He has an idea.
+
+He grabs the scissors and runs to Lily's crayon box. He starts to cut the red color into small pieces. He hears Lily scream.
+
+"Stop! Stop! What are you doing?" Lily cries. "You are ruining my red color!"
+
+Ben does not stop. He cuts the red color until there is nothing left. He throws the pieces on the floor. He feels happy and proud.
+
+"Ha! Ha! Now you have no red color," Ben says. "Now you can't draw a fire truck either."
+
+Lily is shocked and sad. She loves her red color. It is her favorite color. She sees the pieces on the floor and starts to cry. She hears her mom come into the room.
+
+"What's going on here?" Mom asks. "Why are you crying, Lily? Why are you laughing, Ben?"
+
+Lily and Ben tell Mom what happened. Mom is not happy. She scolds Ben for cutting Lily's crayon. She tells him that it is not nice to destroy other people's things. She tells him that he has to apologize to Lily and share his colors with her. She tells Lily that she has to forgive Ben and share her colors with him. She tells them that they have to play nicely and respect each other.
+
+Lily and Ben feel sorry for what they did. They say sorry to each other and hug. They pick up the pieces of the red color and put them in a small bag. They decide to use them to make a collage. They use all their colors to draw a fire truck together. They hear Mom smile and say, "That's better."
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pile of dirt. They want to dig in it.
+
+"Maybe we can find some treasure!" Tom says.
+
+"Or some worms!" Jen says.
+
+They take their shovels and start to dig. They dig and dig until they find something hard. They pull it out. It is a potato.
+
+"A potato!" Tom says. "We can eat it!"
+
+"No, we can't!" Jen says. "It is dirty and old. And look, it has eyes!"
+
+"Those are not eyes, they are sprouts. They can grow more potatoes. My mom told me. She said potatoes are good for you. She recommends them."
+
+"I don't like potatoes. They are yucky. And this one is thin and wrinkly. It is not good for you. It is bad."
+
+"Give it to me, then. I will eat it."
+
+"No, I found it. It is mine."
+
+They start to fight over the potato. They pull and tug and yell. They don't see the big dog that comes running to them. The dog likes potatoes. He sees the potato in their hands. He jumps and bites. He takes the potato and runs away.
+
+Tom and Jen are sad and hurt. They cry and bleed. They wish they had not fought over the potato. They wish they had shared it or left it in the dirt. They wish they had listened to Jen's mom, who always says, "Don't play in the park without me."
+Anna and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. Anna had pink gloves and Ben had blue gloves. They were very happy.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so nice!" Anna said.
+
+"Yes, he is. But he needs a nose. Let's find a carrot!" Ben said.
+
+They ran to the garden and looked for a carrot. They found one and ran back to the snowman. But when they got there, they saw something bad.
+
+"Anna, where is your glove?" Ben asked.
+
+Anna looked at her hand. It was cold and wet. She had lost her glove.
+
+"Oh no! I don't know! I must have dropped it somewhere!" Anna said.
+
+They looked around, but they could not find the glove. It was buried under the snow.
+
+"Maybe a bird took it. Or a dog. Or a monster!" Ben said.
+
+Anna started to cry. She was sad and scared. She wanted her glove back.
+
+"Ben, help me! I want my glove!" Anna said.
+
+Ben tried to comfort her. He gave her his blue glove.
+
+"Here, you can have mine. It's okay. We can share. Don't cry, Anna." Ben said.
+
+Anna took his glove and stopped crying. She smiled at him.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. I'm sorry I lost my glove." Anna said.
+
+They hugged each other and put the carrot on the snowman's face. They thought they were safe and happy.
+
+But they were wrong.
+
+Behind a tree, a big and mean boy was watching them. He had a stick and a grin. He did not like Anna and Ben. He thought they were stupid and weak. He wanted to ruin their fun.
+
+He waited until they were not looking. Then he ran to the snowman and hit it with the stick. He broke the snowman's head and body. He took the hat and the scarf and the carrot. He laughed and ran away.
+
+Anna and Ben heard the noise and turned around. They saw their snowman destroyed and their things gone. They were shocked and sad. They cried and screamed.
+
+"Hey, you stupid kids! Look what I did to your snowman! Ha ha ha!" The mean boy shouted.
+
+He waved the hat and the scarf and the carrot in the air. He threw them in the trash. He did not see the pink glove in the hat. He did not care.
+
+Anna and Ben ran to the trash and tried to get their things back. But it was too late. The trash was dirty and wet. Their things were ruined.
+
+They looked at each other and cried. They had lost everything. They had no snowman, no hat, no scarf, no carrot, and no gloves.
+
+They were cold and wet and sad.
+
+They wished they had stayed home.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+"Let's go on the slide!" Lily says.
+
+"OK!" Tom says.
+
+They run to the slide. They take turns to go down. They have fun.
+
+But then, they hear a loud crack. The slide is broken. They are scared.
+
+"Help!" Lily shouts.
+
+"Help!" Tom shouts.
+
+But no one hears them. The crack is so loud that it makes everyone deaf. They can't hear Lily and Tom.
+
+Lily and Tom are sad. They don't know what to do.
+
+They hug each other. They hope someone will come and fix the slide. They hope someone will hear them. They hope they can play again.
+Tom and Mia liked to play with their blocks. They had many blocks of different shapes and colors. They could make houses, cars, towers and more. But Tom's favorite block was a big red triangle. He always wanted to use it in his creations.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia were building a castle with their blocks. They had a lot of fun stacking and arranging the blocks. But Tom could not find his big red triangle. He looked everywhere, but he could not see it. He felt sad and angry.
+
+"Where is my triangle?" he asked Mia. "Did you take it?"
+
+"No, I did not take it," Mia said. "Maybe you left it somewhere else."
+
+Tom did not believe her. He thought she was lying. He wanted his triangle back. He grabbed a blue square from Mia's hand and threw it on the floor.
+
+"Hey, that's not nice!" Mia said. "Why did you do that?"
+
+"Because you have my triangle!" Tom shouted. "Give it to me!"
+
+Mia shook her head. She did not have his triangle. She did not know where it was. She felt hurt and scared. She ran to their mom and told her what happened.
+
+Mom came to see what was wrong. She saw the blocks on the floor and the tears on Mia's face. She saw Tom sitting on the couch, sulking and frowning.
+
+"What's going on here?" she asked. "Why are you fighting?"
+
+Tom and Mia told her their stories. Mom listened and nodded. She understood why they were upset. She wanted to help them.
+
+She looked around the room and saw something that made her smile. She had an idea. She picked up something and showed it to Tom and Mia.
+
+"Look what I found," she said. "Do you know what this is?"
+
+Tom and Mia looked at what she was holding. It was a big red triangle. It was Tom's triangle. It was on the bookshelf, behind a picture. Tom had forgotten that he put it there yesterday.
+
+Tom's eyes lit up. He recognized his triangle. He felt happy and relieved.
+
+"That's my triangle!" he said. "Thank you, Mom!"
+
+He jumped off the couch and ran to hug his mom. He took his triangle from her hand and held it close.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged him back. She was glad that he found his triangle. She hoped that he learned a lesson.
+
+"Next time, remember where you put your things," she said. "And don't accuse your sister of something she didn't do. That's not fair or kind."
+
+Tom nodded. He felt sorry for what he did. He looked at Mia and saw that she was still sad. He wanted to make her feel better.
+
+He walked over to Mia and gave her his triangle.
+
+"Here, you can play with it," he said. "I'm sorry I was mean to you. You're my sister and I love you."
+
+Mia smiled and took his triangle. She felt happy and touched.
+
+"Thank you, Tom," she said. "I love you too."
+
+She hugged him and gave him back his blue square. They decided to share their blocks and finish their castle together.
+
+Mom watched them and felt proud. She saw that they were sorry and forgiving. She saw that they were loving and sharing. She saw that they were mighty in their hearts.
+Lily loved to play with her dolls. She had a big dollhouse, a pink tea set, and many dresses for her dolls. She liked to pretend that she was a princess and her dolls were her friends.
+
+One day, she invited her brother Max to join her tea party. Max was older than Lily and liked to play with cars and trucks. He did not like dolls or tea. But Lily insisted that he come and sit with her. She said, "Please, Max, it will be fun. You can be a prince and I will be a princess. We can have tasty tea and cookies."
+
+Max did not want to hurt Lily's feelings, so he agreed to play with her. He put on a hat and a scarf and sat on a small chair. Lily poured him some tea from her pink pot and gave him a cookie. She said, "This is the best tea ever. It is made from flowers and honey. Do you like it, Max?"
+
+Max took a sip of the tea and made a face. He did not like it at all. It was too sweet and too hot. He said, "No, Lily, I don't like it. It is not tasty. It is yucky. I want to play with my cars and trucks."
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted Max to like her tea and her dolls. She said, "But Max, this is a special tea party. You can't leave. You have to stay and play with me."
+
+Max shook his head. He said, "No, Lily, I can't. I don't like tea parties. I like cars and trucks. They are more fun. I'm sorry, Lily, but I have to go."
+
+He got up and ran to his room. Lily was left alone with her dolls and her tea. She felt lonely and angry. She said, "Fine, Max, go away. I don't need you. I have my dolls and my tea. They are my real friends. They like my tea and they like me."
+Lily and Ben were bored. They had no toys to play with. The sky was dull and grey. They could not go outside.
+
+"Let's poke the cross on the wall," Ben said. He pointed to a wooden cross that hung above the bed.
+
+"Why?" Lily asked.
+
+"Because it is fun," Ben said. He climbed on the bed and reached for the cross.
+
+Lily followed him. She wanted to have fun too. She poked the cross with her finger.
+
+The cross was not fun. It was hard and rough. It hurt Lily's finger.
+
+"Ow!" Lily cried. She pulled her finger back.
+
+Ben laughed. He poked the cross harder. He wanted to make it fall.
+
+The cross did not fall. It swung back and forth. It hit Ben on the head.
+
+"Ow!" Ben cried. He fell off the bed.
+
+Lily stopped crying. She saw Ben on the floor. He held his head. He looked sad.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Ben. She got off the bed. She went to Ben.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily said. She hugged him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. He hugged her back.
+
+They decided not to poke the cross anymore. They looked for something else to do. They found a book with pictures. They read it together. They had fun.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play in the woods. One day, they saw a big hole in the ground. They wanted to see what was inside, so they went closer. It was a cave!
+
+"Let's go in and explore!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It might be dark and scary," Mia said.
+
+They took a flashlight and walked into the cave. It was very dark and cold. They saw some bats and spiders, but they were not afraid. They kept going deeper and deeper.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud roar. It was a bear! The bear was angry and hungry. It saw Tom and Mia and ran towards them.
+
+"Run!" Tom shouted.
+
+They tried to run, but the cave was too narrow and twisted. The bear was faster and stronger. It caught Tom and Mia and dragged them to its den. It ate them for lunch.
+
+The end.
+Leo was a little leopard who lived in the forest with his mom and dad. He liked to play with his friends, but he was nervous of the big river. He had never learned how to swim, and he was afraid of the water.
+
+One day, his mom said, "Leo, it is time to drink. Come with me to the river and I will show you how to drink safely."
+
+Leo followed his mom, but he was very nervous. He saw the water moving fast and making noise. He saw fish jumping and crocodiles lying on the rocks. He did not want to go near the river.
+
+"Mom, I am scared. Can we drink somewhere else?" he asked.
+
+"No, Leo. This is the best place to drink. The water is clean and fresh. You just have to be careful and watch out for danger. Look, I will show you." His mom walked to the edge of the river and bent down to drink. She licked the water with her tongue and looked around.
+
+"See, Leo? It is easy. You just have to do the same. Come on, try it. I am here with you." She encouraged him.
+
+Leo took a deep breath and walked slowly to the river. He looked at the water and saw his reflection. He saw his yellow fur and black spots. He saw his big ears and whiskers. He saw his sharp teeth and claws. He thought, "I am a leopard. I am brave. I can do this."
+
+He bent down to drink and licked the water with his tongue. It was cold and sweet. He liked it. He drank some more and looked around. He saw his mom smiling at him. He saw his friends watching him. He saw the fish and the crocodiles. He was not nervous anymore. He was proud.
+
+He said, "Mom, I did it. I drank from the river. I am not scared anymore."
+
+His mom said, "Well done, Leo. You are a good leopard. You learned something new today. You should be proud."
+
+Leo smiled and drank some more. He felt happy and thirsty. He liked the river. He thought, "Maybe one day, I will learn how to swim too."
+Anna liked to look at the birds in the park. She saw many colors and shapes. She heard many sounds and songs. She wanted to have a bird of her own. She asked her mom to buy her a bird.
+
+Mom said no. She said birds are not toys. They are wild and free. They need a lot of space and care. They are not happy in a cage. Anna was sad. She did not understand.
+
+One day, Anna found a bird on the ground. It was small and yellow. It had a hurt wing. It could not fly. Anna felt sorry for the bird. She picked it up and took it home. She put it in a shoe box with some grass and seeds. She named it Sunny.
+
+Sunny was scared and restless. He did not like the box. He did not like the noise. He did not like the smell. He missed his friends and his sky. He tried to escape. He pecked and scratched. He made loud noises.
+
+Anna heard Sunny. She ran to the box. She opened it and tried to pet him. Sunny bit her finger. Anna cried. She did not know what to do. She called her mom.
+
+Mom came and saw Sunny. She saw his wing. She saw Anna's finger. She hugged Anna and said sorry. She said Sunny was not a bad bird. He was just scared and hurt. He needed a vet. She said they would take him to the vet and then set him free. She said that was the best thing for him. Anna nodded. She understood. She said goodbye to Sunny. She hoped he would be happy and well.

+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They miss Molly. They want to hug her and feed her carrots. They sit on the hay and wait.
+
+"Where is Molly?" Anna asks.
+
+"She is at the vet," Ben says. "The vet is a person who helps animals when they are sick or hurt."
+
+"Why is Molly sick or hurt?" Anna asks.
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe she ate something bad. Or maybe she stepped on a nail. Or maybe she just needs a check-up."
+
+"What is a check-up?" Anna asks.
+
+"A check-up is when the vet looks at Molly and makes sure she is healthy and happy," Ben says.
+
+"I hope Molly is healthy and happy," Anna says.
+
+"Me too," Ben says.
+
+They hear a sound. It is Molly. She is back. She is walking with Dad. She looks fine. She sees Anna and Ben and makes a loud noise. She is happy to see them.

+
+Tom and Anna want to see the baby calf. They are curious and excited. They sneak past the farmer and look for the cow. They see a barn and go inside. They hear a moo and follow the sound.
+
+They find the cow in a corner. She is lying down and has a small, wet calf next to her. The calf is cute and has spots. Tom and Anna smile and say, "Hello, cow. Hello, calf." The cow looks at them and moos softly.
+
+But then the farmer comes in. He is angry and says, "What are you doing here? You should not bother the cow and the calf. They need to rest and bond. You could scare them or hurt them. Go away now!"
+
+Tom and Anna are scared and sorry. They did not mean to be bad. They say, "Sorry, farmer. Sorry, cow. Sorry, calf." They run out of the barn and back to their mom and dad. They tell them what happened and promise to be good. They hope the cow and the calf will be happy and healthy.

+Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play together in the park. One day, they saw a big sign that said "Puppet Show Today". They ran to their moms and asked if they could go.
+
+"Please, please, can we see the puppets?" they begged.
+
+"Okay, but only if you behave and stay with us," their moms said. "It's a special treat for you."
+

+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play on the sand near the sea. One day, they see a big black boat on the water. They wonder what it is.
+
+"Who is on the boat?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe pirates!" Mia says.
+
+"Pirates? Are they bad?" Tom says.
+
+"Maybe. They take things from other boats. They have swords and hats and eye patches," Mia says.
+
+Tom and Mia are scared. They hide behind a rock and watch the boat. They hope the pirates do not see them.
+
+The boat comes closer to the shore. Tom and Mia hear a loud voice from the boat.
+
+"Ahoy, landlubbers! We are the Black Sea Pirates! We are looking for treasure! Do you have any?" the voice says.
+
+Tom and Mia do not answer. They are too afraid to speak. They hug each other and hope the pirates go away.
+
+The voice says again, "Do you have any treasure? If you do, give it to us or we will make you walk the plank!"
+
+Tom and Mia still do not answer. They close their eyes and wish the boat would leave.
+
+The voice says one more time, "This is your last chance! Do you have any treasure or not?"
+
+Tom and Mia hear a splash. They open their eyes and see a man in a black coat and a hat jump from the boat. He has a sword in his hand and an eye patch on his face. He is a pirate!
+
+Tom and Mia scream and run away. They run to their mom and dad, who are sitting on a blanket. They tell them about the pirate and the boat.
+
+Mom and dad look at the sea. They see the boat and the man. They laugh and say, "Don't be afraid, kids. That is not a real pirate. That is Uncle Bob. He is playing a game with you. He is wearing a costume and he has a toy boat. He wanted to surprise you and have some fun."
+
+Tom and Mia are surprised. They look at the boat and the man again. They see that it is Uncle Bob. He waves at them and smiles. He says, "Sorry, kids. I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to play with you. Do you want to join me on my boat?"
+
+Tom and Mia are not scared anymore. They are happy to see Uncle Bob. They say, "Yes, Uncle Bob. We want to play with you. Can we wear costumes too?"
+
+Uncle Bob says, "Of course, kids. I have some hats and swords and eye patches for you. Come on, let's go to the boat and be pirates together!"

+Tom and Mia run to the boat with Uncle Bob. They put on the costumes and pretend to be pirates. They have fun on the sea. They forget about being afraid. They are glad that Uncle Bob is not a bad pirate. He is a good pirate and a good uncle.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll and Ben had a car. They were having fun, but they wanted something more.
+
+"Let's make a kite!" Lily said. "We can use paper and string and fly it in the sky!"
+
+"Good idea!" Ben said. "I have some paper and string in my room. I will get them."
+
+Ben ran to his room and came back with a big sheet of paper and a long string. He gave them to Lily and said, "Here you go. You can make the kite."
+
+"Thank you, Ben!" Lily said. She was grateful for her brother's help. She folded the paper into a diamond shape and taped it. Then she tied the string to the middle of the paper. She drew a face on the kite and added some ribbons for the tail.
+
+"Look, Ben! I made a kite!" Lily said. She showed him her kite and smiled.
+
+"Wow, Lily! It's beautiful!" Ben said. He admired her kite and said, "Can I fly it with you?"
+
+"Sure, Ben!" Lily said. She was happy to share her kite with her brother. She gave him one end of the string and said, "Let's go outside and find some wind!"
+
+They ran outside and looked for a good spot to fly their kite. They saw a big hill with a lot of grass and flowers. They thought it was perfect.
+
+"Come on, Lily! Let's go up the hill!" Ben said. He pulled the string and ran towards the hill.
+
+"Wait, Ben! Don't go too fast!" Lily said. She tried to follow him, but she tripped on a rock and fell down. She scraped her knee and it hurt. She started to cry.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily said. She held her knee and sobbed.
+
+Ben heard her cry and stopped. He looked back and saw her on the ground. He felt sorry for her and ran back to her.
+
+"Lily, Lily, are you okay?" Ben said. He knelt down next to her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to make you fall. Let me see your knee."
+
+He lifted her skirt and saw a small cut and some blood on her knee. He took a tissue from his pocket and wiped it gently. He said, "It's not too bad, Lily. It will heal soon. Don't cry, Lily. I'm here for you."
+
+He hugged her and kissed her cheek. He said, "I love you, Lily. You're my best sister."
+
+Lily felt better and stopped crying. She hugged him back and said, "I love you, too, Ben. You're my best brother."
+
+She looked at his face and said, "Thank you, Ben. You're very kind and sweet."
+
+They smiled at each other and said, "Let's fly our kite together!"
+
+They got up and held the string together. They ran up the hill and watched their kite soar in the sky. They were happy and grateful for each other. They had a wonderful day.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toy trucks in the garden. They liked to load the trucks with sand, rocks and leaves and drive them around. They pretended they were builders and made roads, bridges and houses.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a big piece of rock. It is heavy and hard," Tom said, showing his truck.
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is a good piece. Can I have it for my house?" Lily asked.
+
+"OK, Lily, you can have it. But you have to give me something too," Tom said.
+
+"OK, Tom, what do you want?" Lily asked.
+
+"I want your soft pillow. It is fluffy and comfortable. I can use it for my bed," Tom said.
+
+"OK, Tom, you can have my pillow. But you have to be careful with it. It is my favorite pillow," Lily said.
+
+They swapped their things and drove their trucks to their houses. They unloaded their trucks and put their things where they wanted. Tom made a bed with his pillow and some blankets. Lily made a house with her rock and some sticks. They were happy with their trade.
+
+They played for a while and then they got tired. They decided to take a nap in their houses. Tom lay down on his pillow and felt comfortable. Lily lay down on her rock and felt hard. She did not like her rock. She missed her pillow.
+
+"Tom, Tom, can I have my pillow back?" Lily called.
+
+"Why, Lily, don't you like your rock?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, Tom, I don't. It is hard and cold. I want my pillow. It is soft and warm. Please, Tom, can we swap again?" Lily asked.
+
+"OK, Lily, we can swap again. But you have to give me my rock back. I like my rock. It is heavy and hard. I can use it for my road," Tom said.
+
+"OK, Tom, I will give you your rock back. Thank you, Tom, you are a good friend," Lily said.
+
+They swapped their things again and drove their trucks to their houses. They unloaded their trucks and put their things where they wanted. Lily made a bed with her pillow and some blankets. Tom made a road with his rock and some sand. They were happy with their trade.
+
+They lay down on their beds and felt comfortable. They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of playing with their trucks and their things. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were bored. They had no toys to play with and no friends to visit. They sat on the couch and looked out the window. They saw a big truck stop in front of their house.
+
+"Look, Tom, a truck!" Lily said.
+
+"Maybe it has something for us," Tom said.
+
+They ran to the door and opened it. A man came out of the truck with a big box. He smiled and said, "Hello, kids. I have a special delivery for you. Do you want to see what's inside?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+The man put the box on the ground and opened it. Out came a small, fluffy puppy. It wagged its tail and licked the man's face.
+
+"Wow, a puppy!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"This is your new friend. He needs a home and a name. Do you want to keep him?" the man said.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+They hugged the puppy and thanked the man. The man said, "You're welcome. Take good care of him. He likes to play and talk."
+
+"Talk?" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"Yes, talk. He can say some words if you teach him. Watch this." The man said, "Puppy, say hello."
+
+The puppy barked and said, "Hello!"
+
+Tom and Lily gasped and clapped. They were amazed and happy. They said, "Hello, puppy!"
+
+The puppy barked and said, "Hello, Tom! Hello, Lily!"
+
+Tom and Lily laughed and played with the puppy. They gave him a name, a bed, and a toy. They were not bored anymore. They had a new friend who could talk.
+Tommy likes to play with his cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He makes them zoom and crash on the floor. He likes to pretend he is a driver.
+
+One day, his mom says, "Tommy, it is time to get ready. We are going to the park." Tommy is happy. He loves the park. He can slide and swing and run. He says, "OK, mom. I will get ready."
+
+He goes to his room and looks for his pants. He sees a pair of blue pants on his bed. He tries to put them on, but they are too small. He says, "Oh no, these are not my pants. These are baby pants." He looks for another pair of pants.
+
+He sees a pair of red pants in his drawer. He tries to put them on, but they are too big. They fall down to his ankles. He says, "Oh no, these are not my pants. These are daddy pants." He looks for another pair of pants.
+
+He sees a pair of green pants in his closet. He tries to put them on, but they have a zipper and a button. He does not know how to use them. He says, "Oh no, these are not my pants. These are difficult pants." He feels sad and frustrated.
+
+He hears his mom calling, "Tommy, are you ready? We have to go soon." He says, "Mom, I can't find my pants. I need help." His mom comes to his room and sees him sitting on the floor with three pairs of pants around him. She says, "Oh, Tommy, what happened? Why do you have so many pants?"
+
+Tommy tells her his problem. He says, "I want to go to the park, but I don't have any pants that fit me. They are either too small, or too big, or too difficult." His mom hugs him and says, "Don't worry, Tommy. I have a solution. Look, here are your yellow pants. They are just right for you. They have an elastic waist, so you can pull them up and down easily. They are your favorite pants, remember?"
+
+Tommy smiles and says, "Yes, I remember. I like my yellow pants. They are easy and comfy." He puts on his yellow pants and says, "Thank you, mom. You are the best." His mom says, "You are welcome, Tommy. You are the best, too. Now, let's go to the park and have some fun." They hold hands and leave the room. Tommy is happy. He starts to sing a song about his yellow pants.
+Sara did not like haircuts. She liked her long hair. She did not want to cut it. But Mom said she had to. Mom said her hair was too messy and tangled. Mom said she would look pretty with a new haircut.
+
+Sara cried and hid under the bed. She did not want to go to the salon. She did not want to see the scissors. She did not want to hear the snip snip. She was scared.
+
+Mom came to the room. She looked under the bed. She saw Sara. She smiled and said, "Sara, come out. It's okay. Haircuts are not scary. They are fun. You can choose how you want your hair to look. You can try a new style. You can try a bow or a clip. You can try a crazy color. What do you think?"
+
+Sara peeked out from under the bed. She saw Mom's smile. She heard Mom's words. She thought for a moment. She liked bows and clips. She liked colors. She wondered how she would look with a crazy haircut. She felt curious.
+
+She crawled out from under the bed. She took Mom's hand. She said, "Okay, Mom. I will try a haircut. But can I try a crazy one? Like pink or purple or blue?"
+
+Mom laughed and hugged Sara. She said, "Sure, Sara. You can try a crazy haircut. As long as you are happy. Let's go to the salon and have some fun."
+Tom and Jen like to swim in the lake. They have a big raft that they can sit on and play. One day, they see a big rock in the water. Tom says, "Let's go to the rock and jump off it!" Jen says, "OK, that sounds fun!"
+
+They paddle the raft to the rock and tie it to a branch. Tom climbs up the rock and looks down. He sees the water is clear and deep. He says, "Watch me, Jen!" He jumps off the rock and splashes into the water. He comes up and smiles. He says, "That was awesome! Come on, Jen, your turn!"
+
+Jen climbs up the rock and looks down. She sees the water is clear and deep. She says, "I'm scared, Tom. What if I hurt myself?" Tom says, "Don't be scared, Jen. It's safe and fun. Just jump!" Jen says, "OK, I'll try." She jumps off the rock and splashes into the water. She comes up and screams. She says, "Ow, ow, ow! Tom, I hurt my foot!"
+
+Tom swims to Jen and sees blood in the water. He says, "Oh no, Jen, what happened?" He looks at her foot and sees a sharp stick sticking out of it. He says, "Jen, you stepped on a stick! It's in your foot! We have to get you to the raft and go home!" He helps Jen swim to the raft and gets her on it. He pulls out the stick and wraps her foot with his shirt. He says, "I'm sorry, Jen. I didn't see the stick. Are you OK?" Jen says, "It hurts a lot, Tom. But I'll be OK. Thank you for helping me." Tom says, "You're welcome, Jen. I'm sorry I made you jump. I won't do that again." He paddles the raft back to the shore and calls for help. He hugs Jen and says, "You're brave, Jen. I'm proud of you." Jen hugs Tom and says, "You're kind, Tom. I'm glad you're my friend."
+Lily was a little girl who liked to chew. She chewed on her toys, her clothes, and even her hair. Her mom and dad told her to stop, but she did not listen. She thought chewing was fun and tasty.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She saw a big black dog with a shiny collar. She ran to the dog and said, "Hello, doggy! You are so pretty! Can I chew on your collar?" The dog barked and wagged his tail. He liked Lily.
+
+But the dog's owner, a boy with a crown, did not like Lily. He was a prince who came to the park with his nanny. He saw Lily trying to chew on his dog's collar and got angry. He shouted, "Hey, you! Stop chewing on my dog's collar! That is rude and mean! He is not your toy, he is my pet! His name is Rex, and he is a royal dog!"
+
+Lily was scared and sad. She did not mean to be rude or mean. She just liked to chew. She let go of the collar and said, "Sorry, prince. I did not know. I like to chew. It is fun and tasty. Can we be friends?"
+
+The prince looked at Lily and saw that she was not a bad girl. She was just a curious girl. He felt sorry for shouting at her. He said, "Sorry, too. I was too harsh. I like to chew, too, sometimes. But only on food, not on things. Chewing on things can hurt your teeth and make them dirty. Do you want some of my snack? I have some crackers and cheese."
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She liked crackers and cheese. She said, "Yes, please. Thank you, prince. You are very kind. Can I play with Rex, too? He is very nice."
+
+The prince smiled and nodded. He said, "Yes, you can. Rex likes you, too. He is very friendly. But please, do not chew on his collar. It is very special. It has a medal that says he is the best dog in the world."
+
+Lily agreed and promised. She took a cracker and a piece of cheese and shared them with Rex. She petted his fur and scratched his ears. Rex licked her face and wagged his tail. The prince joined them and gave them more snacks. They played and talked and laughed. They became friends. Lily learned not to chew on things that were not food. The prince learned not to be so bossy and proud. They had fun and tasty. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big cake on a table. It has bright candles and icing. Sara and Ben want to taste the cake.
+
+They run to the table and grab a piece each. But then, a lady comes out of the house. She is angry. She says, "That is my cake! It is for my birthday! You are bad children!"
+
+Sara and Ben are scared. They drop the cake and run away. But the lady follows them. She wants to catch them and tell their mom.
+
+Sara and Ben hide behind a bush. They cover their mouths and try not to make noise. They hope the lady will not find them. They are sorry for taking the cake. They wish they had asked first. They wonder if the cake was good. They never got to taste it.
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their jeep. It is big and red and has four wheels. They take turns to drive it in the yard.
+
+One day, Ben sees a cake on the table. It is round and brown and has white cream on top. It looks yummy. Ben wants to taste it. He says to Sam, "I am hungry. I want some cake. You drive the jeep. I will be back soon."
+
+Sam nods and takes the jeep. He drives it around the yard. He has fun. He does not see Ben take a big bite of the cake. He does not hear Mom come into the kitchen.
+
+Mom sees the cake. She sees a big hole in it. She sees Ben with cream on his face. She is angry. She says to Ben, "Who ate the cake? It was for Dad's birthday. You are a bad boy. You are in trouble."
+
+Ben is scared. He says, "I am sorry, Mom. I was hungry. I wanted to taste it. It was good."
+
+Mom does not listen. She takes Ben by the hand and drags him to his room. She says, "You will stay here until Dad comes home. You will not get any cake. You will not play with the jeep. You will think about what you did."
+
+Ben cries. He does not want to stay in his room. He does not want to miss the cake. He does not want to lose the jeep. He wishes he did not taste the cake. He wishes he played with Sam. He is sad.
+Lily wanted to help her mom make cookies. She put on her apron and climbed on a chair. She saw a big bowl of dough on the table. She reached for a spoon to scoop some dough.
+
+"Wait, Lily," her mom said. "You can't touch the dough yet. It has eggs in it. You need to wash your hands first."
+
+Lily frowned. She did not want to wash her hands. She wanted to make cookies now. She thought her mom was being mean. She jumped off the chair and ran to the stove. She saw a little red light on the stove. She wondered what it was.
+
+She put her hand on the stove. It was very hot. She screamed and pulled her hand back. It hurt a lot. She started to cry.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and ran to her. She saw her hand was red and swollen. She felt sorry for Lily. She hugged her and said, "Oh, Lily, I'm so sorry. You burned your hand. The stove was on. It was very dangerous. You should never touch the stove. It can hurt you."
+
+Lily sobbed and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to make cookies. I didn't know the stove was hot. It seemed like a light."
+
+Her mom said, "I know, Lily. It's okay. You didn't mean to do it. But you have to listen to me. I'm trying to keep you safe. And you can still make cookies. We just need to put some ice on your hand first. Then we can wash your hands and make cookies together. How does that sound?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I love you."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Lily. Come on, let's go to the sink."
+Anna and her mom went to the grocery store. Anna liked to help her mom buy food. She put apples, bananas, bread, and milk in the cart. She saw a big cake with pink frosting and sprinkles. She wanted the cake very much.
+
+"Mom, can we buy the cake?" Anna asked.
+
+"No, sweetie, we don't need the cake. We have cookies at home," her mom said.
+
+Anna felt sad. She wanted the cake more than the cookies. She pouted and crossed her arms. She did not help her mom anymore.
+
+They went to the cashier and paid for the food. Anna saw the cake again. It looked so yummy. She had an idea. She ran to the cake and grabbed it. She tried to put it in the cart.
+
+"Anna, what are you doing?" her mom shouted.
+
+The cake was too heavy for Anna. She dropped it on the floor. The cake broke into pieces. The frosting and sprinkles went everywhere. Anna and her mom were covered in cake. The cashier and the other people looked at them. They were angry and shocked.
+
+Anna started to cry. She realized she made a big mistake. She was sorry for what she did. She hugged her mom and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was bad. I just wanted the cake."
+
+Her mom was mad, but she loved Anna. She hugged her back and said, "It's okay, Anna. I forgive you. But you have to learn to listen and be patient. You can't always have what you want. And you have to pay for what you break."
+
+Anna nodded. She learned a lesson. She helped her mom clean up the mess. They left the grocery store. They did not buy the cake. They ate the cookies at home. Anna was still sad, but she knew she did the right thing. She said, "I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "I love you, too, Anna."

+
+"Who are you?" Anna asks.
+
+"I am a storyteller. I know many stories from around the world. Do you want to hear one?" the old man says.
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben says.
+
+The old man tells them a story about a brave lion and a clever mouse. Anna and Ben listen carefully. They like the story. They learn that being kind and helpful is good.
+
+"Thank you for the story!" Anna says.
+
+"You're welcome, my dear. You are very polite and smart." the old man says.
+
+"Can we play with your hat?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, why not? It's a magic hat. It can make you imagine anything you want." the old man says.
+
+He gives them his hat and they put it on. They pretend to be different animals and characters. They have more fun.

+The old man watches them and smiles. He is happy too. He likes to share his stories and his hat with the children. He thinks they are wise and playful. He hopes they will always be friends.
+Timmy wanted to help his mom bake a cake. He saw her put some flour, sugar, eggs and butter in a big bowl. She used a cup to measure how much she needed. Timmy thought he could do that too. He lifted the cup and poured some flour into the bowl. But he poured too much. The flour spilled over the bowl and made a mess on the table and the floor.
+
+Mom saw what Timmy did and was not happy. She said, "Timmy, what have you done? You made a big mess. You should not touch the cup without asking me. You need to learn how to measure things properly." Timmy felt guilty. He knew he did something bad. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to help you. I like cake." Mom sighed and said, "I know you wanted to help, Timmy, but you have to be careful and listen to me. Baking a cake is not easy. It takes time and skill. Now we have to clean up this mess and start over. Come on, help me wipe the table and the floor."
+
+Timmy helped his mom clean up the mess. He used a cloth to wipe the flour off the table and the floor. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I won't touch the cup again. Can I still help you bake the cake?" Mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can still help me, Timmy. But you have to follow my instructions. I will tell you what to do and when to do it. OK?" Timmy nodded and said, "OK, mom. I will listen to you. I love you, mom." Mom hugged him and said, "I love you too, Timmy. Now let's bake a delicious cake together."

+
+Lily says, "Sorry, Ben. I did not mean to make you sad. I will help you fix your math book."
+
+Ben says, "Thank you, Lily. I am sorry I yelled at you. Maybe you can teach me how to draw and paint and sing."

+
+Tom said, "I want to kiss him too, Mom. He is so funny."

+
+Lily and Ben shook their heads. They had never heard of Canada.
+
+"It is a very peaceful nation. We have mountains and lakes and animals. We are friends with your nation. We came to visit and bring some gifts," he said.
+
+He opened the back of the truck and took out a box. He gave it to Lily and Ben.
+

+
+"Sorry, my loves, we can't buy those today. We only have enough money for food and clothes. Maybe another day, okay?" Mom said, with a humble smile.
+
+Sara and Tom felt sad. They wanted the doll and the car very much. But they also loved their mom and knew she worked hard for them.
+
+"Okay, Mom. We understand. We love you," Sara and Tom said, putting the toys back on the shelf.
+
+Mom hugged them and kissed them. She was proud of her twins. They were kind and grateful.
+
+"Thank you, my loves. You are the best gifts I ever had. Come on, let's go home and have some cookies," Mom said, taking their hands.
+
+Sara and Tom smiled. They forgot about the toys and followed their mom. They were happy to be with her. They knew they had everything they needed.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big pond with many ducks. They want to feed the ducks, so they look for some bread. They find a bag of bread on a bench. They take some bread and throw it to the ducks.
+
+But one piece of bread is not bread. It is a green hippo toy. Lila throws the green hippo toy by mistake. The green hippo toy lands in the pond. The ducks are scared. They swim away from the green hippo toy.
+
+"Oops!" Lila says. "I threw the wrong thing. That is not bread. That is a green hippo toy. I want it back."
+
+Lila runs to the edge of the pond. She tries to reach the green hippo toy. But the pond is too deep. She cannot get the green hippo toy.
+
+"Help!" Lila says. "I cannot get the green hippo toy. It is too far."
+
+Ben hears Lila. He runs to help her. He sees a long stick on the ground. He picks up the long stick. He uses the long stick to push the green hippo toy closer to the edge of the pond. He gives the green hippo toy to Lila.
+
+"Here you go," Ben says. "I got the green hippo toy for you. Be careful next time. Do not throw the wrong thing."
+
+"Thank you, Ben," Lila says. "You are a good friend. I am sorry I threw the wrong thing. I will be careful next time. Do you want to play with the green hippo toy?"
+
+"Yes, I do," Ben says. "Let's play with the green hippo toy. But not in the pond. Let's play on the grass."
+
+Lila and Ben smile. They play with the green hippo toy on the grass. They have fun. The ducks come back to the pond. They eat the bread. They are happy. The end.
+Tim was a little boy who lived on a farm with his mom and dad. He liked to play with the animals, but sometimes he was naughty and did not listen to his mom and dad. They told him not to go near the big pond, because it was deep and dangerous. But Tim was curious and wanted to see the fish and frogs.
+
+One day, when his mom and dad were busy in the barn, Tim sneaked out of the house and ran to the pond. He saw a big frog sitting on a log and tried to catch it. He leaned over the edge of the pond and reached out his hand. But the frog jumped away and Tim lost his balance. He fell into the water with a splash.
+
+Tim was scared and cold. He could not swim and he felt something slimy touch his leg. He cried for help, but no one heard him. He thought he was going to drown and wished he had listened to his mom and dad.
+
+But then he saw something big and brown swim towards him. It was the farm dog, Rex. Rex had heard Tim's cry and came to save him. He grabbed Tim's shirt with his teeth and pulled him out of the water. He licked Tim's face and barked loudly.
+
+Tim's mom and dad heard Rex's bark and came running to the pond. They saw Tim wet and shivering and hugged him. They were happy that he was alive, but they were also angry that he had disobeyed them. They took him back to the house and gave him a warm bath and a dry clothes. Then they punished him by making him stay in his room for the rest of the day. They told him he was lucky that Rex was there, or he could have died. They told him he had to learn to be a good boy and follow the rules.
+
+Tim felt sorry and ashamed. He loved his mom and dad and Rex. He did not want to make them worry or angry. He promised to himself that he would never go near the pond again. He learned his lesson and never forgot it.
+Sam likes to look at small things with his microscope. He makes slides with water and drops of juice or dirt. He thinks they are pretty and funny. He shows them to his mom and dad and they say good job.
+
+One day, he wants to make a new slide with a thin hair. He finds a hair on the floor and puts it on a slide. He puts the slide under the microscope and turns the knob. He sees the hair very big and clear. He is happy.
+
+He calls his mom and says, "Mom, come and see what I made. It is a thin hair and it looks like a snake."
+
+Mom comes and looks at the slide. She says, "Oh, Sam, that is not a hair. That is a worm. A bad worm that can make you sick. Where did you find it?"
+
+Sam says, "On the floor. I thought it was a hair."
+
+Mom says, "No, Sam, that is a worm from the cat. The cat has worms and needs to go to the vet. And you need to wash your hands and throw away the slide. The worm can make you sick too."
+
+Sam feels scared and sad. He does not like worms. He does not like the vet. He does not like to throw away his slide. He cries and says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I did not know. I just wanted to make a slide."
+
+Mom hugs him and says, "It's okay, Sam. You did not know. But you have to be careful with what you put under the microscope. Some things are not good to look at. Come on, let's go and wash your hands and clean the microscope. And then we can make a new slide with something else. Something nice and safe."
+
+Sam nods and wipes his tears. He follows Mom and hopes the cat will be okay. He hopes he will not get sick. He hopes he will find something nice and safe to make a new slide. He does not like worms. He does not like bad endings.
+Tim and Tom were two rabbits who lived in a big field. They liked to eat grass and carrots and play with their friends. But they had to be careful, because sometimes a hunter came to the field with a big gun and a loud dog. The hunter wanted to catch the rabbits and eat them.
+
+One day, Tim and Tom saw the hunter and his dog near their hole. They were very scared and ran away as fast as they could. They looked for a safe place to hide, but the dog was following them. They saw a big pile of trash and decided to jump in. The trash was disgusting and smelled bad, but they hoped the hunter and his dog would not find them there.
+
+The hunter and his dog came closer and closer to the trash pile. The dog sniffed the air and barked. The hunter pointed his gun at the trash and said, "I think there are some rabbits in there. Let's get them!" He pulled the trigger and a loud bang made Tim and Tom jump. They felt something hit them and hurt them. They cried out in pain and fear.
+
+But then, they heard another sound. It was a roar. A big bear came out of the woods and ran towards the hunter and his dog. The bear was angry because the trash pile belonged to him. He did not like anyone to touch his trash. He swiped his paw at the hunter and knocked him down. He bit the dog and made him run away. He growled at the gun and broke it.
+
+Tim and Tom saw the bear and were very surprised. They did not know the trash pile belonged to the bear. They felt sorry for the hunter and his dog, but they were also glad that the bear saved them. They crawled out of the trash and thanked the bear. The bear nodded and went back to his trash. Tim and Tom limped back to their hole and decided to never hide in the trash again. They learned that some things belong to others and that some things are disgusting.
+Anna and Ben are friends who like to play with toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big box of space toys. They have rockets, stars, moons, and planets. They pretend to fly to different planets and have adventures.
+
+One day, they find a new planet in the box. It is green and blue and has a ring around it. They wonder what it is called and what it is like.
+
+"Let's go to this planet," Anna says. "It looks fun and pretty."
+
+"OK," Ben says. "But how do we get there?"
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She is very clever and has an idea. She recommends a plan to Ben.
+
+"We can use this rocket," she says, pointing to a red and white toy. "It has a button that makes it go fast. We can put the planet in the rocket and fly there."
+
+Ben likes the plan. He thinks Anna is very clever too. He agrees to try it.
+
+They put the planet in the rocket and press the button. The rocket makes a loud noise and zooms across the room. They follow it with their eyes and imagine they are flying with it.
+
+They reach the planet and land on it. They are happy and excited. They explore the planet and see many things. They see trees, flowers, animals, and water. They also see the ring, which is made of rocks and ice. They play with the rocks and ice and make shapes and sounds.
+
+They have a lot of fun on the planet. They think it is the best planet ever. They decide to name it Anna-Ben, after themselves. They are proud of their discovery and their adventure. They smile and hug each other. They are the best friends ever.
+Lily loved dinosaurs. She had many dinosaur toys in her room. She liked to play with them and make them roar and run. Her favorite dinosaur was a pink one. She named it Rose.
+
+One day, Lily and her mom went to the park. Lily brought Rose with her. She wanted to show Rose the flowers and the birds. She put Rose on a bench and ran to the swings. She had fun swinging high and low.
+
+"Look, mom, I can go so high!" Lily shouted.
+
+"Be careful, Lily, and don't forget your dinosaur!" her mom said.
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She swung for a long time. Then she saw a boy with a blue dinosaur. He was playing near the slide. Lily wanted to see his dinosaur. She jumped off the swing and ran to the boy.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily. What's your name?" she asked.
+
+"I'm Max. This is my dinosaur. His name is Rex." the boy said.
+
+"Wow, Rex is cool. Can I see him?" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, you can hold him. Can I see your dinosaur?" Max said.
+
+Lily nodded and gave Rex to Max. She ran back to the bench to get Rose. But when she got there, Rose was gone. Lily looked around and saw a girl with a pink dinosaur. She was walking away with her dad.
+
+"Hey, that's my dinosaur!" Lily cried. She ran after the girl and her dad. "Give me back my dinosaur!"
+
+The girl and her dad stopped and turned around. They looked at Lily and her dinosaur.
+
+"Is this your dinosaur?" the dad asked.
+
+"Yes, it is. It's Rose. She's my favorite dinosaur. I left her on the bench." Lily said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. We didn't know. My daughter saw the dinosaur and liked it. She thought it was lost. Here, you can have it back." the dad said.
+
+He gave Rose to Lily. Lily hugged Rose and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, mister. I'm sorry, too. I didn't mean to leave Rose. I wanted to play with another dinosaur." Lily said.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. Next time, be more careful with your toys. And maybe you can share them with other kids. They might like dinosaurs, too." the dad said.
+
+Lily nodded and said goodbye to the girl and her dad. She ran back to Max and gave him back Rex. She showed him Rose and they played together. They had fun with their dinosaurs. Lily was happy. She didn't leave Rose again.
+Tom and Anna like to watch the garden. They see many flowers and bugs and birds. They like to smell the roses and touch the grass. They are happy in the garden.
+
+One day, a man comes to the garden. He has a big bag and a big hat. He says he wants to buy the garden. He says he will give a lot of money to Tom and Anna's mom and dad. He says the garden is cheap and he can make it better.
+
+Tom and Anna's mom and dad say yes. They take the money and give the garden to the man. They say they will move to a new house with a bigger garden. They say Tom and Anna will like it there.
+
+But Tom and Anna do not want to leave the garden. They cry and beg and say no. They say they love the garden and the flowers and the bugs and the birds. They say the man is bad and mean and will ruin the garden.
+
+But it is too late. The man takes the garden and cuts down the flowers and sprays the bugs and scares the birds. He builds a big fence and a big sign that says "No kids allowed". He laughs and says he is happy with his cheap garden.
+
+Tom and Anna watch the garden from the car. They see the man and the fence and the sign. They do not see the roses and the grass and the birds. They are sad and angry and miss the garden. They do not like the new house or the new garden. They do not like the man or the money. They do not like the end of the story.
+Tom and Mia liked to play at the park. They liked to swing, run, and climb. But their favorite thing was to slide. They liked to slide fast and feel the wind in their hair.

+
+Tom ran to Mia and tried to help her. He called for help. A lady came and saw Mia. She called an ambulance. The ambulance came and took Mia away. Tom was very sad and scared.

+
+"Go away, dog!" Sara says. "You are not nice. You are smelly."
+
+The dog does not go away. It comes closer to them. It wants to play. But Sara and Ben are scared.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben cries. "Who is the dog's owner? Where is he?"
+
+A man hears Ben. He runs to the park. He is the dog's owner. He is sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids," he says. "This is my dog, Rex. He is not mean. He is just playful. He ran away from me a week ago. I have been looking for him. He is smelly because he was living in the street."
+
+Sara and Ben look at the man. They look at Rex. Rex wags his tail. He licks the man's face.
+
+"Can we pet him?" Sara asks.
+
+"Sure, you can," the man replies. "But be careful. He might lick you too."

+
+"Let's swing to the moon!" Lily says.
+
+"Okay!" Ben says. "One, two, three, go!"
+
+They swing harder and harder. They pretend they are rockets. They make noises like "whoosh" and "zoom". They have fun.
+
+But then they hear a loud "meow". They stop swinging and look around. They see a cat. The cat is in a cell. The cell is on a truck. The truck says "Animal Shelter".
+
+The cat looks sad. It has big eyes and a small nose. It wants to get out of the cell.
+

+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to smell the herbs that grew in the pots. There were mint, rosemary, basil and thyme. They smelled good and made them happy.
+
+"Let's make a herb salad!" said Lily. She picked some mint leaves and put them in a bowl. Tom picked some rosemary and basil and added them to the bowl. They mixed them with their hands and pretended to eat.
+
+"Yum, yum, this is delicious!" said Tom. "But we need some thyme. Where is the thyme?"
+
+They looked around and saw that the thyme pot was empty. Someone had taken all the thyme leaves. They felt sad and angry.
+
+"Who took our thyme?" asked Lily. "We need it for our salad!"
+
+They heard a noise behind the fence. They went to see and found their dog, Spot, licking his paws. He had a guilty look on his face and some thyme leaves stuck to his fur.
+
+"Spot, you bad dog!" said Tom. "You took our thyme! You made us lose our herb salad!"
+
+Spot wagged his tail and barked. He did not understand why they were mad at him. He thought the thyme was a tasty treat and wanted to share it with them.
+
+"Spot, you have to say sorry!" said Lily. "You have to give us back our thyme!"
+
+But Spot did not have any thyme left. He had eaten it all. He looked at them with his big eyes and hoped they would forgive him.
+
+Tom and Lily were impatient. They wanted their thyme back. They did not want to play with Spot anymore. They turned away and went back to their bowl.
+
+But then they smelled something else. Something sweet and fruity. They saw that their mom had brought them a plate of strawberries and cream. She had seen them playing with the herbs and wanted to surprise them.
+
+"Look, kids, I have a treat for you!" said mom. "Strawberries and cream! Do you want some?"
+
+Tom and Lily forgot about their herb salad. They ran to their mom and hugged her. They thanked her for the treat and took a big bite.
+
+"Mmm, this is even better than herb salad!" said Tom.
+
+"Yes, this is the best!" said Lily.
+
+They smiled and enjoyed their strawberries and cream. They did not mind losing their thyme anymore. They were happy and full.
+
+Spot came to join them. He licked their faces and wagged his tail. He was happy too. He did not mind losing their herb salad either. He loved them and wanted to play with them.
+
+Tom and Lily saw that Spot was sorry. They forgave him and petted him. They shared some strawberries and cream with him. They were friends again.
+
+They all ate and played in the garden. They smelled the herbs and the strawberries. They felt good and made them happy.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play pretend. Today, they pretend to be a king and a queen. They use a big box as their palace. They put a crown on their heads and a cape on their shoulders.
+
+"Welcome to our palace, everyone!" Sara says. She waves to the other kids in the yard. "We are the most popular king and queen in the world!"
+
+Ben nods. He smiles and says, "Yes, we are. And we have a lot of fun in our palace. We have toys, books, and snacks. Do you want to join us?"
+
+Some kids say yes. They run to the box and knock on the door. Sara and Ben let them in. They share their toys, books, and snacks. They have a good time.
+
+But some kids say no. They do not want to play pretend. They want to play something else. They say, "Your palace is silly. It is just a box. You are not a real king and queen. You are just kids."
+
+Sara and Ben feel sad. They do not like the mean words. They say, "That is not nice. We are just having fun. You can play what you want, but do not be rude."
+
+The mean kids do not listen. They keep saying bad things. They laugh and tease. They try to kick the box and ruin the palace.
+
+Sara and Ben get angry. They do not want to play with the mean kids anymore. They say, "Quit it! Quit it! Leave us alone! You are not our friends. You are not welcome in our palace!"
+
+They close the door and lock it. They hug each other and say, "We do not need them. We have each other. We are still the best king and queen in the world!"
+
+They keep playing pretend. They forget about the mean kids. They are happy in their palace.
+Tim and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with their toys in the garden. Tim had a big dinosaur toy that he loved very much. Sam had a small dinosaur toy that he liked too.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the garden. His name was Ben. He had a shiny dinosaur toy that looked very real. Tim and Sam wanted to see it.
+
+"Hello, can we play with you?" Tim asked Ben.
+
+"Sure, but you can't touch my dinosaur. It is very old and special. It belongs to my grandpa. He gave it to me for my birthday." Ben said.
+
+Tim and Sam looked at the old dinosaur. It had scales and teeth and claws. It was very cool.
+
+"Wow, it is amazing. Can we look at it closer?" Sam asked.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. Don't break it." Ben said.
+
+Tim and Sam moved closer to the old dinosaur. They touched it gently. It felt hard and cold.
+
+Suddenly, the old dinosaur made a loud roar. It moved its head and tail. It opened its mouth and bit Tim's finger.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim cried. He dropped the dinosaur and ran away.
+
+Sam and Ben were shocked. They looked at the dinosaur. It was still roaring and moving.
+
+"What is happening? Is it alive?" Sam asked.
+
+"I don't know. I think it is broken. Grandpa said it was a robot dinosaur. He said it could make sounds and move, but only when I pressed a button. I didn't press any button." Ben said.
+
+They heard Tim's mom calling them. She heard Tim's cry and came to see what was wrong.
+
+"Boys, what is going on? What is that noise?" She asked.
+
+They showed her the old dinosaur. It was still roaring and moving.
+
+"It is Ben's dinosaur. It belongs to his grandpa. It is very old and special. But it bit Tim's finger and now it is going crazy." Sam explained.
+
+Tim's mom looked at the old dinosaur. She saw a small switch on its belly. She turned it off. The old dinosaur stopped roaring and moving.
+
+"It is not a real dinosaur. It is a toy. But it is very old and special. It is a collector's item. It is very rare and valuable. Ben, you are very lucky to have it. But you have to be careful with it. It is not a toy for playing. It is a toy for looking." She said.
+
+She looked at Tim's finger. It was bleeding a little. She put a band-aid on it.
+
+"Tim, are you okay? I'm sorry that the dinosaur bit you. It was an accident. Ben didn't mean to hurt you." She said.
+
+Tim nodded. He was still scared, but he was not angry.
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry that I touched your dinosaur. It is very old and special. It belongs to your grandpa. I didn't know it could bite." He said.
+
+Ben nodded. He was still worried, but he was not mad.
+
+"Tim, I'm sorry that my dinosaur bit you. It is very old and special. It belongs to my grandpa. I didn't know it could go crazy." He said.
+
+They looked at each other. They smiled.
+
+"Can we still be friends?" Tim asked.
+
+"Sure, we can still be friends." Ben said.
+
+They hugged. They decided to play with their own dinosaur toys. They were not as old and special as Ben's, but they were more fun and safe. They had a good time.
+Sara liked to draw with her color pens. She had many colors: red, blue, yellow, green, pink, purple, and more. She liked to make pictures of her family, her friends, and her toys. She was very happy when she drew.
+
+One day, she wanted to draw a picture of a flower. She looked for her green pen to draw the stem and the leaves. But she could not find it. She looked in her box, on her table, under her bed, but it was not there. She felt sad. She asked her mom, "Mom, where is my green pen?"
+
+Her mom said, "I'm sorry, Sara, but your green pen is gone. Your brother took it and lost it. He was very naughty. He did not ask you or me. He just took it and ran away. He said he wanted to draw a monster with it."
+
+Sara was very angry. She said, "That's not fair! He should not take my things without asking! He should not lose my things! He should say sorry! He should give me a new green pen!"
+
+Her mom said, "I know, Sara, I know. He was very wrong. He made you suffer. He will say sorry and he will give you a new green pen. But you have to wait until he comes back. He went to the park with dad. Maybe you can draw something else until then. You have many other colors. You can make something unusual and beautiful."
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She said, "Okay, mom, I will wait. But I'm still mad at him. I will draw something else. I will draw a rainbow. A rainbow has many colors. It is unusual and beautiful. It makes me happy."
+
+She took her color pens and started to draw a rainbow. She used red, blue, yellow, pink, purple, and more. She made a big curve on her paper. She smiled as she drew. She forgot about her green pen for a while. She was happy again.

+
+But then, Lily comes back. She sees Tom with her dolls. She is angry. She shouts at Tom. "Tom, those are my dolls! You are not allowed to touch them! Give them back to me now!"

+
+Lily sees Tom's face. He looks sorry. She feels bad. She knows Tom is her brother and he loves her. She loves him too. She says sorry to Tom. She did not mean to hurt him. She picks up her dolls and gives one to Tom. She says, "Do you want to play with me and my dolls? We can share them. They are our dolls."
+
+Tom smiles. He says, "Yes, I want to play with you and your dolls. Thank you for sharing them. They are our dolls." He hugs Lily. Lily hugs him back. They are happy. They forgive each other. They play together on the bed. Mom comes to the bedroom. She sees Tom and Lily. She is proud of them. She says, "You are good brother and sister. You know how to forgive and share. I love you both." She kisses them and joins them on the bed. They have a wide bed. They have room for everyone. They have fun.
+Tom and Anna are restless today. They do not want to nap or play with their toys. They want to do something fun and new.
+
+"Let's play hide and seek!" Tom says to Anna. "You count to ten and I will hide."
+
+Anna nods and covers her eyes with her hands. She starts to count out loud. "One, two, three..."
+
+Tom runs to the living room and looks for a good hiding spot. He sees the big couch and crawls behind it. He thinks Anna will not find him there.
+
+"Ten!" Anna shouts and opens her eyes. She walks to the living room and looks around. She does not see Tom. She thinks he is very good at hiding.
+
+"Where are you, Tom?" Anna calls out. "I can't see you!"
+
+Tom hears Anna and giggles. He thinks he is very clever. He stays quiet and waits for Anna to give up.
+
+Anna hears Tom giggle and smiles. She knows he is behind the couch. She tiptoes to the couch and peeks behind it. She sees Tom's feet and his curly hair.
+
+"Found you!" Anna says and grabs Tom's feet. Tom squeals and comes out from behind the couch. He hugs Anna and laughs.
+
+"You are good at finding!" Tom says to Anna. "Now it's your turn to hide and I will count."
+
+Anna agrees and runs to find a hiding spot. Tom covers his eyes and starts to count. They play hide and seek until they are tired and happy.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big hill with many rocks. They want to climb the hill and find treasures.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a skull!" Lila says, holding a white bone in her hand. "It is scary and cool!"
+
+"Wow, Lila, that is a great treasure!" Ben says. "Can I see it?"
+
+Lila gives the skull to Ben. He looks at it with big eyes. He sees the holes for the eyes and the nose and the teeth. He thinks it is attractive.
+
+"Can I keep it, Lila?" Ben asks. "I want to show it to mom and dad."
+
+"OK, Ben, you can keep it. But be careful, don't drop it!" Lila says.
+
+Ben nods and puts the skull in his pocket. He and Lila start to climb down the hill. They are happy and proud of their treasure.
+
+But then, Ben trips on a rock and falls. He feels a pain in his knee and his elbow. He also feels something break in his pocket.
+
+He cries out loud. Lila runs to him and helps him up.
+

+
+The bee is happy. She saves the flowers. She takes them back to the garden and gives them water. The flowers are happy too. They smile and thank the bee.
+
+The bee tells the flowers not to worry. She will protect them from Sara and Tom. She says they are good flowers and they deserve to live.
+
+Sara and Tom go back to the house. They are sad and sorry. They do not have any flowers. They learn a lesson. They should not be lazy and they should not hurt the flowers. They should respect the garden and the bee.
+Lily and Tom liked to play with their toy boat. They made it from a big box and some paper. They painted it blue and red and stuck a button on the front. The button was shiny and round.
+
+One day, they took their boat to the park. They found a pond with ducks and geese. They put their boat on the water and pushed it with a stick. They pretended they were sailors and the boat was their ship.
+
+"Look, Tom, our boat is sailing!" Lily said. "It is going very fast!"
+
+"Yes, Lily, it is!" Tom said. "But watch out for the geese! They might bite our boat!"
+
+They saw a big goose swimming towards their boat. It had a thick neck and a long beak. It looked angry and hungry. It opened its mouth and snapped at the button.
+
+"Oh no, the goose wants our button!" Lily cried. "We have to get our boat back!"
+
+They ran to the edge of the pond and pulled the stick. But the stick was too short and the boat was too far. The goose bit the button and pulled it off. It swallowed it with a gulp.
+
+"Hey, that's our button!" Tom shouted. "Give it back, you mean goose!"
+
+But the goose did not listen. It swam away with a honk. It looked very pleased with itself.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and mad. They lost their button and their boat. They did not want to play with the goose anymore. They decided to go home and make a new boat. And this time, they would not use a button. They would use something else. Something that the goose would not like. Maybe a rock or a pine cone. Or a big, loud horn.

+
+Sara and Ben nod. They understand. They don't want their yellow poppies to rot. They want them to stay yellow and happy.
+

+
+Their mom was angry and worried. She asked Lily and Ben where they got the lock and the match. They told her the truth and said they were sorry. Their mom said they were very naughty and careless. She said they could have burned the house and hurt themselves and Sam. She said they should never play with fire or things that are not for children. She took away the lock and the match and the treasure chest. She said they had to go to their room and think about what they did.
+
+Lily and Ben felt very ashamed and sad. They hugged Sam and said they were sorry. They said they loved him and they would never do that again. They went to their room and cried. They wished they had not played with the lock and the match. They wished they had been more careful and kind.

+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. "Can we play with it?"
+
+"Sure, let's see what it does," Tom said. They turned on the flashlight and pointed it at different things. The flashlight made different sounds and lights. It was fun.
+
+But then, a big boy came and saw them. He was mean. He wanted the flashlight for himself.
+
+"Hey, give me that!" he said. He grabbed the flashlight from Lily and ran away.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Tom said. He and Lily chased the big boy. They wanted their flashlight back.
+
+The big boy ran into a dark tunnel. He thought he was safe. But he was wrong. The flashlight was not a normal flashlight. It was a magic flashlight. It belonged to a wizard.
+
+The big boy pressed a button. The flashlight made a loud noise and a bright light. The light turned the big boy into a frog.
+
+"Ribbit, ribbit!" he croaked. He was scared.
+
+Lily and Tom reached the tunnel. They saw the frog and the flashlight.
+
+"Look, it's him!" Lily said. "He got what he deserved."
+
+"Let's take our flashlight back," Tom said. They picked up the flashlight and left the frog behind.
+
+They learned a lesson. They learned that it is not nice to take things from others. They learned that some things are not what they seem. They learned to be careful with unusual things. They were happy. They shared the flashlight and played with it nicely. The end.
+Sara and Ben are going to the cabin with Mom and Dad. They are very happy. They like the cabin. It has a big lake and many trees. They can swim and play and see animals.
+
+But the car is very slow. It makes loud noises and stops a lot. Sara and Ben are bored and tired. They ask Mom and Dad, "When are we there?"
+
+Mom and Dad say, "Soon, soon. Relax, please. The car is old and needs to be careful. We will get there soon."
+
+Sara and Ben try to relax. They look out the window and see the sky and the clouds. They sing songs and tell jokes. They hug their toys and close their eyes.
+
+After a long time, they see the cabin. It is brown and cozy. It has a porch and a swing. They jump out of the car and run to the cabin. They are very happy. They say, "We are here, we are here!"
+
+Mom and Dad smile and say, "Yes, we are here. We made it. Now we can relax and have fun." They hug Sara and Ben and go to the cabin. They are very happy too.
+Tim and Mia were friends who liked to play outside. They lived in a big city with many cars and buildings. Sometimes they saw big pictures on the walls that told people what to buy or do. Tim and Mia called them billboards.
+
+One day, they saw a new billboard that had a picture of a big park with many trees and flowers. It said: "Come to Green Park, the best place to have fun!" Tim and Mia wanted to go to the park, but they did not know where it was. They asked their mom, but she said it was too far and they had no time.
+
+Tim and Mia were sad and lonely. They decided to go to the park by themselves. They took their bikes and followed the signs that pointed to the park. They rode for a long time, but they did not see any trees or flowers. They only saw more cars and buildings.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Mia asked.
+
+"I don't know," Tim said. "Maybe we should turn back."
+
+But before they could turn, a big truck came very fast and hit them. Tim and Mia fell off their bikes and did not get up. The truck did not stop. The billboard lied to them. They never saw the park. They never saw their mom again.
+Mia and Leo were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but they did not like to put them away. Their room was always messy, with toys on the floor, on the bed, and on the shelf. Their mom was not happy with them. She told them to tidy their room before they could have a nap.
+
+"But we are not sleepy, mom!" Mia and Leo said. "We want to play more!"
+
+"No, you have to nap now. It is good for you. And you have to tidy your room first. It is not safe to have so many toys around. You could trip and hurt yourself. Or the toys could fall and break. Now, go and tidy your room, please." Mom said.
+
+Mia and Leo did not listen to mom. They pretended to tidy their room, but they only moved some toys from one place to another. They hid some toys under the bed, behind the curtains, and in the closet. They thought mom would not notice. Then they jumped on the bed and played with their pillows.
+
+Mom came to check on them. She saw that their room was still messy. She was very angry with them. She took away all their toys and put them in a big box. She said they could not have them back until they learned to be tidy. She made them lie down on the bed and nap.
+
+Mia and Leo were sad and bored. They did not have any toys to play with. They did not want to nap. They looked at the ceiling and wished they had listened to mom. They heard mom lock the door and leave. They felt trapped and scared. They cried and cried, but no one came to help them. They had a bad nap.
+Tom and Lily were playing in their room. They had many toys, but they liked to pretend with other things. They used a big rug as a magic carpet. They flew around the world and saw many animals and places.
+
+"Look, Lily, there is a big mountain!" Tom said. "Let's go there and see what is on top."
+
+"OK, Tom, hold on tight!" Lily said. She moved the rug with her hands and made it go up and down.
+
+They flew over the mountain and saw a big house. It was white and had many windows. They saw a man come out of the house. He had a big box in his hands.
+
+"Who is that, Lily?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know, Tom. Maybe he lives there. Maybe he has a present in the box." Lily said.
+
+They flew closer to the man and the house. They saw that the man had a red hat and a red coat. He had a big beard and a big smile. He looked at them and waved.
+
+"Hello, children!" he said. "Do you want to see what I have in the box?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+They landed the rug near the man and the house. They got off the rug and ran to the man. He opened the box and showed them what was inside.
+
+"It's a train set!" he said. "I made it for you. It has a big engine and many cars. It can go fast and make noise. Do you like it?"
+
+"Wow!" Tom and Lily said. "We love it! Thank you, thank you!"
+
+They hugged the man and looked at the train set. It was shiny and colorful. It had many tracks and bridges. It looked like fun.
+
+"You're welcome, children!" the man said. "I'm glad you like it. I'm Santa Claus, and I deliver presents to good children on Christmas Eve. You have been very good this year, so I wanted to give you a special gift."
+
+"Santa Claus!" Tom and Lily said. "We know you! We wrote you a letter and asked for a train set. How did you know?"
+
+"I read your letter, of course!" Santa Claus said. "And I have a magic list that tells me what every child wants. I also have a magic sleigh and reindeer that help me deliver the presents. They are waiting for me outside."
+
+"Can we see them?" Tom and Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, why not?" Santa Claus said. "But you have to be quick. I have many more presents to deliver tonight. Come on, follow me."
+
+He took them outside and showed them his sleigh and reindeer. They were big and beautiful. They had bells and ribbons. They made soft sounds and looked at the children.
+
+"These are my reindeer. They can fly very fast and very high. They help me deliver the presents all over the world. Their names are Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen, and Rudolph. Can you say their names?" Santa Claus asked.
+
+Tom and Lily tried to say their names. They got some right and some wrong. Santa Claus laughed and corrected them.
+
+"Very good, children. You are very smart. But you know who is very stupid? That cat over there." Santa Claus said. He pointed to a black cat that was sitting on the roof of the house. It had green eyes and a long tail. It looked at them and hissed.
+
+"That cat is very stupid. He always tries to catch my reindeer and scratch my sleigh. He is very naughty and mean. He never gets any presents from me. He only gets coal. Do you know what coal is?" Santa Claus asked.
+
+Tom and Lily shook their heads. They did not know what coal was.
+
+"Coal is a black rock that burns. It is very dirty and smelly. It is not a good thing to have. You don't want coal, do you?" Santa Claus asked.
+
+Tom and Lily shook their heads again. They did not want coal. They wanted the train set and the rug and the toys.
+
+"Of course you don't. You want nice things. And you deserve nice things. Because you are nice children. And nice children get nice presents from me. Now, let's go back to your room and play with your train set. And don't forget to take your rug. It is a very special rug. It can fly, you know." Santa Claus said.
+
+He took them back to their room and helped them set up the train set. He showed them how to make it go and stop and change directions. He played with them for a while and made them laugh. He was very kind and funny.
+
+"Thank you, Santa Claus. You are the best."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and find bugs and stones. They had a big bucket to put their treasures in. They were very happy.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was their mom. She was angry. She saw that they were dirty and that they had made a mess. She said, "Lily and Ben, come inside right now! You need to take a bath and clean up. And don't touch anything with your dirty hands!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not want to go inside. They did not want to take a bath. They wanted to keep playing. They ran to the shed and hid inside. They locked the door with a key. They thought they were safe.
+
+But their mom followed them. She knocked on the door. She said, "Lily and Ben, open the door! This is not a game. You need to listen to me. I am your mom and I love you. But you also need to obey me and respect our home. Please, unlock the door and come out."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry. They knew their mom was right. They had been naughty and rude. They did not want to make their mom worry or sad. They found the key and unlocked the door. They came out and hugged their mom. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We love you too. We will take a bath and clean up. We will not hide from you again."
+
+Their mom smiled. She said, "Thank you, Lily and Ben. I am glad you are sorry. I forgive you. But remember, playing is fun, but you also need to be responsible and careful. Dirt is not bad, but you also need to be clean and healthy. And hiding is not smart, but you also need to be honest and brave."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They learned their lesson. They went inside with their mom. They took a bath and cleaned up. They put their treasures in a safe place. They were happy again.
+Lila liked fashion very much. She had many dresses and hats and shoes in her closet. She liked to try them on and look at herself in the mirror. She liked to wear bright colors and shiny things. She did not like to wear modest clothes, like her sister Mia.
+
+Mia liked modest clothes. She had a few dresses and hats and shoes in her closet. She liked to wear soft colors and plain things. She did not like to wear fashion clothes, like her sister Lila.
+
+One day, Lila and Mia had to go to bed early. They had to sleep well for a big day tomorrow. They had to go to their grandma's house for a visit. Lila wanted to wear her most fashion dress and hat and shoes. She wanted to show her grandma how pretty she was. Mia wanted to wear her most modest dress and hat and shoes. She wanted to show her grandma how polite she was.
+
+But when they woke up in the morning, they had a surprise. Lila's closet was empty. All her fashion clothes were gone. Mia's closet was full. All her modest clothes were there. And there was a note on the door. It said: "Dear Lila and Mia, I borrowed your clothes for a special occasion. I hope you don't mind. Love, Mom."
+
+Lila and Mia were very confused. They did not know what to do. They had to wear each other's clothes. Lila had to wear a modest dress and hat and shoes. Mia had to wear a fashion dress and hat and shoes. They felt very strange and uncomfortable.
+
+When they got to their grandma's house, they saw their mom. She was wearing Lila's most fashion dress and hat and shoes. She looked very happy and beautiful. She said: "Hello, my sweet girls. I'm sorry I took your clothes. I had a very important meeting today. I wanted to impress my boss with my style. And I did. I got a promotion. Thank you for letting me borrow your clothes. You are very generous and kind."
+
+Lila and Mia smiled. They were glad their mom was happy and successful. They hugged her and said: "You're welcome, Mom. We love you. And we love each other. And we love our clothes. Even if they are not our style. We can share them and try new things. Maybe we can learn something from each other. Maybe we can both be modest and fashion at the same time."
+Lily loved to gaze at the stars with her aunt. Her aunt was a successful teacher who knew many things about the sky and the planets. Lily wanted to learn from her aunt and be like her when she grew up.
+
+One night, they went to the park and lay down on a blanket. Lily pointed at a bright star and asked, "What is that, aunt?"
+
+"That is Venus, the second planet from the sun. It is very hot and has no air. You can't live there, Lily," her aunt explained.
+
+"Wow, Venus is so shiny. Can we go there someday, aunt?" Lily wondered.
+
+Her aunt smiled and hugged her. "Maybe someday, Lily, if you work hard and study well. But for now, let's enjoy the beauty of the night and the stars. They are our friends and they make us happy."
+
+Lily nodded and snuggled with her aunt. She felt warm and safe. She loved her aunt and the stars. She closed her eyes and dreamed of Venus.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with cars and trucks. But they have only one red car. Sam wants the red car. Ben wants the red car too.
+
+They start to fight over the red car. They pull and push and yell. Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She is not happy.
+
+Mom says, "Stop fighting! You have to share the red car. Or you can play with something else. But you cannot fight."
+
+Sam and Ben do not listen. They keep fighting. Mom gets angry. She takes the red car away. She says, "No red car for anyone. Go to your rooms and calm down."
+
+Sam and Ben are sad and mad. They go to their rooms. They sit on their beds. They think about the red car. They miss the red car.
+
+After a while, they feel sorry. They do not want to fight anymore. They want to play together. They go to Mom and say, "We are sorry, Mom. Can we have the red car back?"
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "I am glad you are sorry. And I am glad you want to play together. You can have the red car back. But you have to take turns. And you have to be nice."
+
+Sam and Ben nod. They say, "OK, Mom. We will take turns. And we will be nice." They hug Mom and say, "We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom gives them the red car. They go to the living room. They play with the red car. They take turns. They are nice. They are happy. They are calm.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play outside in summer. They liked to run, jump, and look for bugs. One day, they saw a pale butterfly with yellow spots on its wings. It was very pretty and flew very fast.
+
+"Look, a butterfly!" Lily said. "Let's follow it and see where it goes."
+
+"Okay!" Ben said. "Maybe it will lead us to a flower or a tree."
+
+They followed the butterfly across the grass, over the rocks, and under the fence. They had to be careful not to lose sight of it or to step on any ants. They followed it for a long time, until they reached a big pond.
+
+"Wow, look at the water!" Ben said. "It's so shiny and blue. Do you think there are fish in it?"
+
+"Maybe," Lily said. "But I don't see the butterfly anymore. Where did it go?"
+
+They looked around, but they could not find the butterfly. They felt sad and tired. They had followed it so far, but they did not know where it was.
+
+"Maybe it flew away to another place," Lily said. "Maybe it has a home or a friend there."
+
+"Maybe," Ben said. "But I wish we could see it again. It was so pretty and fun to follow."
+
+They sat down by the pond and watched the water. They saw some ducks and frogs and dragonflies. They heard some birds and bees and crickets. They felt the sun and the breeze and the grass. They smiled and held hands.
+
+"Maybe we will see the butterfly again someday," Lily said. "But even if we don't, we still have each other. And we still have summer."
+
+"Yes," Ben said. "We do. And we can always find new things to follow and explore."
+
+They hugged and laughed. They were happy and curious. They were friends who liked to play outside in summer.
+Lily and Tom like to play with coins. They have a big jar of coins that they found in the attic. Some coins are shiny and some are dull. Some coins are big and some are small. Lily and Tom like to sort the coins by color and size.
+
+One day, they find a coin that is different from the others. It is not shiny or dull. It is not big or small. It is a reddish-brown color. Lily and Tom do not know what color it is. They ask their mom.
+
+Mom says, "That is a copper coin. It is very old and rare. It is worth a lot of money. You should keep it safe and not lose it."
+
+Lily and Tom are excited. They want to keep the copper coin. They look for a place to hide it. They do not want anyone to take it. They find a small box with a lock. They put the copper coin in the box and lock it. They hide the box under their bed.
+
+Lily and Tom are happy. They have a special coin that no one else has. They promise to share it and not fight over it. They hope the copper coin will remain in the box for a long time. They make sure the lock is tight and no one can open it. They go to sleep with a smile.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their toy animals. They have a lion, a bear, a monkey and a rabbit. They want to know which animal is the heaviest.
+
+"I think the lion is the heaviest," says Lily. "He has a big mane and a long tail."
+
+"No, I think the bear is the heaviest," says Ben. "He has a lot of fur and a big belly."
+
+They decide to use a scale to weigh the animals. They put the lion on one side and the bear on the other. The scale tips to the bear's side.
+
+"See, the bear is heavier than the lion," says Ben.
+
+"Let's try the monkey and the rabbit," says Lily.
+
+They put the monkey on one side and the rabbit on the other. The scale tips to the monkey's side.
+
+"See, the monkey is heavier than the rabbit," says Lily.
+
+They want to weigh the animals' paws too. They take off the animals' shoes and socks and put them on the scale.
+
+"It is difficult to weigh the paws," says Ben. "They are very small and light."
+
+They try to balance the scale with the paws, but it keeps moving.
+
+"Maybe we need more paws," says Lily.
+
+They look around for more toy animals. They find a cat, a dog, a mouse and a bird.
+
+"Let's weigh these paws too," says Ben.
+
+They put the cat's paw on one side and the dog's paw on the other. The scale tips to the dog's side.
+
+"See, the dog's paw is heavier than the cat's paw," says Ben.
+
+They put the mouse's paw on one side and the bird's paw on the other. The scale tips to the mouse's side.
+
+"See, the mouse's paw is heavier than the bird's paw," says Lily.
+
+They are happy with their experiment. They put the shoes and socks back on the animals and hug them.
+
+"We learned a lot today," says Lily.
+
+"Yes, we did," says Ben. "We learned that some animals are heavier than others, and some paws are heavier than others."
+
+They smile and continue to play with their toy animals.
+Lily and Ben are going to visit Grandma and Grandpa. They are very happy. They want to pack their bags. They have toys, books and clothes.
+
+"Can I pack my teddy bear?" Lily asks Mom.
+
+"Of course, you can. Teddy bear is your friend. He will like Grandma and Grandpa too." Mom says.
+
+"Can I pack my truck?" Ben asks Dad.
+
+"Sure, you can. Truck is your favorite. You can play with it in the garden." Dad says.
+
+They pack their bags and put them in the car. They say goodbye to their house and their cat. They are ready to go.
+
+Grandma and Grandpa live far away. They have a big house and a lovely garden. They have chickens, cows and sheep. They are very kind and fun.
+
+When Lily and Ben arrive, Grandma and Grandpa hug them and kiss them. They are very happy to see them.
+
+"Welcome, welcome! We have a surprise for you!" Grandma says.
+
+"What is it, what is it?" Lily and Ben ask.
+
+"Come and see!" Grandpa says.
+
+They follow Grandma and Grandpa to the kitchen. There is a big pot on the stove. It smells good.
+
+"Grandma made rice for you. Rice is yummy and healthy. Do you like rice?" Grandma asks.
+
+"Yes, we do! We love rice!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+"Good, good! Let's eat then. You must be hungry after the long trip." Grandpa says.
+
+They sit at the table and eat the rice. It is warm and tasty. They also have milk, bread and cheese. They talk and laugh.
+
+Lily and Ben are very happy. They love Grandma and Grandpa. They love their rice. They love their visit.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They have a birthday today. Mom and Dad give them a big present each. Ben and Mia are happy. They want to open their presents.
+
+Ben opens his present first. He sees a big truck. It has wheels and lights and sounds. Ben likes trucks. He says, "Wow, thank you, Mom and Dad! This is the best present ever!"
+
+Mia opens her present next. She sees a big doll. It has hair and eyes and clothes. Mia does not like dolls. She says, "Ew, what is this? This is a stupid present! I don't want a doll!"
+
+Mom and Dad are sad. They say, "Mia, that is not nice. We got you a doll because we thought you would like it. It is a beautiful doll. You can play with it and dress it and comb its hair."
+
+Mia shakes her head. She says, "No, I don't want to play with it. I want a truck like Ben. Trucks are fun. Dolls are boring. Can I have Ben's truck?"
+
+Ben says, "No, you can't have my truck. This is my truck. I love my truck. You have your own present. You can play with your doll."
+
+Mia gets angry. She says, "No, I don't want my doll. I want your truck. Give me your truck!" She tries to grab Ben's truck.
+
+Ben says, "No, stop it! This is my truck. Go away!" He pushes Mia away.
+
+Mia cries. She says, "You are mean! You are a bad brother! I hate you!"
+
+Ben cries. He says, "You are mean! You are a bad sister! I hate you!"
+
+Mom and Dad are worried. They say, "Stop, stop, stop! You are twins. You are supposed to love each other. You can share your presents. You can play with both the truck and the doll. They are both nice presents. Please, don't fight."
+
+Ben and Mia look at Mom and Dad. They look at each other. They look at their presents. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Mom and Dad. Sorry, Ben. Sorry, Mia."
+
+Mom and Dad smile. They say, "That's OK. We love you both. You are both good kids. Now, why don't you hug each other and say happy birthday?"
+
+Ben and Mia hug each other. They say, "Happy birthday, Ben. Happy birthday, Mia. I love you."
+
+Mom and Dad hug them too. They say, "Happy birthday, Ben and Mia. We love you too."
+Lily and Lola are twins. They look the same and they like the same things. They have a lot of toys and books and clothes. But sometimes they do not want to share. They fight over who gets the pink dress or the big teddy or the shiny bike. They make each other sad and angry.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their mom. They see a friendly girl playing with a ball. She smiles at them and asks if they want to play. Lily and Lola nod and run to her. They take turns kicking the ball and catching it. They have a lot of fun. The girl tells them her name is Mia and she is new in town. She says she does not have many toys or friends.
+
+Lily and Lola feel sorry for Mia. They remember how they have so many things and each other. They decide to share with Mia. They invite her to their home and show her their toys and books and clothes. They let her choose what she likes and play with them. They make her happy and they are happy too.
+
+Mia thanks them for being so kind and generous. She says they are the best friends she ever had. She says she wishes she had a twin like them. Lily and Lola hug her and say they are glad they met her. They learn that sharing is good and makes everyone happy. They promise to share more and fight less. They are the best twins and the best friends.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toy cars and trucks. They make roads and bridges with blocks and books. They pretend they are in different countries.
+
+One day, they want to play in a new country. They look at a big map on the wall. They see many colors and shapes. They point at a red shape with a star.
+
+"What is this country?" Anna asks.
+
+"It is China," Ben says. He remembers what their mom told them. "It is very big and far away. It has high mountains and long rivers."
+
+"Let's play China!" Anna says. She grabs a yellow truck. "This is my taxi. I will drive to the mountains."
+
+Ben takes a blue car. "This is my police car. I will order the traffic."
+
+They zoom their vehicles on the floor. They make noises and talk to each other.
+
+"Beep beep! Move, move!" Anna says. "The mountain is very high. I need to go fast."
+
+"Woo woo! Stop, stop!" Ben says. "The traffic is very bad. You need to wait."
+
+They have fun playing China. They learn new words and facts. They are happy twins.
+Lily and Ben liked to help Mom in the kitchen. They wanted to be mighty helpers. They put the dirty plates and cups in the dishwasher. They put the soap in the right place. They closed the door and pushed the button.
+
+"Good job, Lily and Ben!" Mom said. "You are very good at using the dishwasher. Do you want to perform a song for me while we wait for it to finish?"
+
+"Yes, Mom!" Lily and Ben said. They loved to sing and dance. They ran to the living room and got their toy instruments. Lily had a drum and Ben had a guitar. They put on their hats and scarves and stood on the rug.
+
+"Welcome to our show!" Lily said. "We are the mighty dishwasher band. We will sing a song about how we help Mom in the kitchen. Are you ready, Ben?"
+
+"I'm ready, Lily!" Ben said. "Let's rock!"
+
+They started to play their instruments and sing. They made up funny words and rhymes. They moved their bodies and made silly faces. Mom clapped and cheered. She was very proud of them.
+
+They finished their song and bowed. "Thank you, thank you!" they said. "We hope you liked our show!"
+
+"I loved it!" Mom said. "You are very talented and creative. And you are also very helpful. The dishwasher is done. Let's go and put the clean dishes away."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They ran to the kitchen and followed Mom. They took out the dishes and put them in the right places. They felt happy and mighty. They had fun helping Mom and performing their song. They hugged Mom and said, "We love you, Mom!"
+
+"I love you too, Lily and Ben!" Mom said. "You are my mighty dishwasher band!"
+Tom and Lily were hungry. They wanted to eat some food. They looked in the kitchen, but there was nothing good. Only bread and cheese and apples.
+
+"Can we have something else?" Tom asked Mom.
+
+"No, this is what we have today. You need to eat healthy food, not junk food," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily did not like healthy food. They liked candy and chips and cake. They made a sad face.
+
+"Please, Mom, can we have a treat?" Lily begged.
+
+Mom was thoughtful. She loved her children, but she also wanted them to be strong and well. She had an idea.
+
+"OK, how about this. You can have one piece of candy each, but only after you eat your bread and cheese and apples. And you have to drink some water, too. Deal?" Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily thought about it. They really wanted the candy, but they also did not want to eat the bread and cheese and apples. They looked at each other.
+
+"Deal," they said together.
+
+They ate their food, even though they did not like it. They drank their water, too. Then they got their candy and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You are the best," they said.
+
+Mom hugged them and smiled, too.
+
+"You are welcome, my sweeties. You are very thoughtful, too. You ate your food even though you did not like it. That is very good of you. Now you can enjoy your candy. But not too much, OK?" Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They ate their candy slowly and happily. They were full and satisfied. They loved their mom and their food.
+Tom and Lily were going to see their grandma on a plane. They were very happy and excited. They packed their bags and put on their coats. Mom helped them zip their coats and said, "Are you ready to go?"
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+They got in the car and drove to the airport. They saw many planes in the sky. They pointed and said, "Look, look, look!"
+
+At the airport, they had to wait in a long line. They were bored and tired. They wanted to play and run. But Mom said, "No, no, no. You have to stay with me and be quiet."
+
+Tom and Lily tried to be good, but they were restless. They saw a big man with a hat and a beard. He looked funny. Tom giggled and said, "Look, look, look!"
+
+The man heard Tom and turned around. He was not happy. He was rude. He said, "What are you looking at, kid? Stop laughing at me!"
+
+Tom was scared and sad. He said, "Sorry, sorry, sorry."
+
+Lily was angry and brave. She said, "You are mean, mean, mean. You should not yell at my brother. He did nothing wrong. You are rude, rude, rude."
+
+The man was surprised and ashamed. He said, "Oh, oh, oh. You are right, little girl. I was rude, rude, rude. I am sorry, sorry, sorry. Please forgive me, me, me."
+
+Tom and Lily smiled and said, "OK, OK, OK. We forgive you, you, you."
+
+Mom was proud and relieved. She said, "Good, good, good. You are very kind and smart, Tom and Lily. Now, let's go to our plane, plane, plane."
+
+They walked to their plane and boarded. They found their seats and buckled their belts. They looked out the window and saw the clouds. They said, "Wow, wow, wow!"
+
+They were ready to fly and see their grandma. They were happy and excited. They said, "Yay, yay, yay!"
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their dog, Spot. Spot was a friendly dog who liked to run and chase balls. Lily threw a ball for Spot and he ran after it. But then he saw a big cat on the other side of the fence. Spot barked and ran towards the cat.
+
+"Spot, no!" Lily shouted. "Come back!"
+
+But Spot did not listen. He jumped over the fence and chased the cat. The cat was scared and ran away. Spot followed the cat into the street.
+
+"Spot, stop!" Ben yelled. "It's dangerous!"
+
+But Spot did not hear. He was too busy chasing the cat. He did not see the car coming. The car honked and braked. Spot was in the middle of the road.
+
+Lily and Ben panicked. They ran to the fence and tried to climb over. They wanted to help Spot. They were afraid he would get hurt.
+
+But then they heard a whistle. It was a police officer. He saw what was happening and got out of his car. He ran to the street and grabbed Spot by the heel. He pulled him to the sidewalk and held him.
+
+"Are you okay, boy?" he asked Spot. "You're a lucky dog. You could have been hit by the car."
+
+He looked at Lily and Ben, who were still on the fence. He smiled and waved.
+
+"Is this your dog?" he asked them. "He's very friendly, but he needs to be careful. Come here, I'll help you down."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and climbed down. They ran to the officer and hugged Spot. They thanked the officer for saving their dog.
+
+"Thank you, sir," they said. "We're sorry Spot ran away. He likes cats too much."
+
+The officer laughed and petted Spot.
+
+"That's okay," he said. "He's a good dog. But next time, keep him on a leash. And don't panic. I'm here to help."
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a green beetle on a flower. The beetle has shiny wings and big eyes.
+
+"Wow, look at the beetle!" Anna says. "It is so pretty and green. Can I hold it?"
+
+"OK, but be gentle," Ben says. He lends Anna his hand. Anna puts her hand next to the flower. The beetle crawls onto her palm.
+
+Anna smiles. She feels the beetle tickle her skin. She brings it close to her face. She says hello to the beetle.
+
+"Hello, beetle. You are my friend. Do you want to play with me?" Anna asks.
+
+The beetle does not answer. It flaps its wings and flies away. Anna and Ben watch it go.
+
+"Bye, beetle. Thank you for playing with us," Anna says.
+
+"Maybe it has to go home," Ben says.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They miss the beetle. But they are still friends. They hug each other and go to play on the slide. They hope to see the beetle again.
+Tom was a boy who liked to play outside. He had a red coat and a blue hat. He liked to run and jump and make snowballs. He had a friend named Sam who lived next door. They played together every day.
+
+One day, Tom and Sam went to the park. They saw a big hill with white snow. They wanted to slide down the hill. They found a big piece of cardboard and put it on the snow. They climbed on the cardboard and held on tight.
+
+"Are you ready?" Tom asked Sam.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Sam said.
+
+They pushed the cardboard and it started to slide. It went faster and faster. They felt the wind in their faces and the snow in their hair. They laughed and shouted. They had fun.
+
+But then, the cardboard hit a rock. It flipped over and threw Tom and Sam off. They landed on the snow. They were not hurt, but they were cold and wet. They looked at each other and saw their red noses and blue lips.
+
+"Brrr, it's cold!" Tom said.
+
+"I know, let's go home!" Sam said.
+
+They got up and ran to their houses. They were tired from playing. They wanted to get warm and dry. They said goodbye to each other and went inside. They took off their coats and hats and put on their pajamas. They drank hot chocolate and ate cookies. They felt cozy and happy. They did not want to freeze anymore. They wanted to sleep. They had a good day.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with tools. They have a big box of tools in their room. They have hammers, saws, screws, nails and more. They pretend to build things with the tools.
+
+One day, Mom says she has a surprise for them. She says she ordered a new toy for them. She says it will be delivered soon. Sam and Ben are very excited. They wonder what the toy is. They hope it is something fun.
+
+They wait and wait for the delivery. They look out the window. They ask Mom when it will come. Mom says it will come soon. She says they need to be patient. Sam and Ben are not patient. They are bored. They want the toy now.
+
+They decide to play with the tools again. They take the tools out of the box. They start to hammer and saw and screw and nail. They make a lot of noise. They make a big mess.

They try to grab the box. But the man says no. He says the box is not for them. He says the box is for the neighbors. He says he made a mistake. He says he delivered the wrong box. He says he is sorry. He takes the box back. He leaves.
+
+Sam and Ben are very sad. They cry. They say they want the toy. They say they want the box. They say it is not fair. Mom comes to the door. She sees them crying. She sees the man leaving. She sees the empty porch. She asks what happened. Sam and Ben tell her what happened. Mom is very angry. She says they are very naughty. She says they scared the delivery man. She says they ruined the surprise. She says they will not get the toy. She says they will get a time out. She takes them to their room. She puts them in the corner. She says they have to stay there until they say sorry. She says they have to clean up the mess. She says they have to be quiet. She closes the door.
+

+Anna and Ben were playing knights and dragons in the garden. Anna had a white shield and a wooden sword. Ben had a green cape and a cardboard horn. They pretended to fight and chase each other around the trees and flowers.
+
+"Roar! I am a big, scary dragon! I will eat you, knight!" Ben shouted, as he ran towards Anna.
+
+"No, you won't! I am a brave, strong knight! I will protect the castle!" Anna said, as she held up her shield and sword.
+
+They laughed and had fun, until they saw a dark cloud in the sky. It looked like rain was coming soon.
+
+"Oh no, we have to go inside!" Anna said, as she looked at the cloud.
+
+"But I don't want to stop playing!" Ben said, as he pouted.
+
+"Me neither, but we don't want to get wet and cold. Come on, let's go to the porch. Maybe we can play something else there." Anna said, as she took Ben's hand.
+
+They ran to the porch, where they found a big box of toys. They decided to play with the dolls and cars. They made up stories and voices for them.
+
+"Hello, I am Princess Lily. I live in a beautiful castle with my friends." Anna said, as she held a pink doll.
+
+"Hello, I am Prince Leo. I come from a faraway land with my horse." Ben said, as he held a blue car.
+
+They pretended that the doll and the car were friends and went on adventures together. They faced dangers and solved problems. They also had fun and learned new things.
+
+At the end of their play, they made the doll and the car kiss each other.
+
+"Kiss, kiss, kiss!" Anna and Ben said, as they moved the doll and the car closer.
+
+They giggled and smiled. They liked playing together. They were good friends.
+
+Then, they heard a loud thunder. The rain started to fall. They looked at the sky and saw flashes of lightning.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Ben said, as he pointed at the sky.
+
+"It's so noisy and bright!" Anna said, as she covered her ears.
+
+They felt a little scared, but they also felt safe. They had each other. They had their toys. They had their shield.
+
+They hugged each other and held the white shield over their heads. They felt warm and cozy.
+
+They looked at each other and smiled. They gave each other a kiss.
+
+"Kiss, kiss, kiss!" Anna and Ben said, as they kissed each other's cheek.
+
+They giggled and smiled. They liked each other. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a fancy car. It is big and shiny and has four doors. Sara and Ben run to the car and look inside.
+
+"Wow, this car is so nice!" Sara says. "I wish I could ride in it."
+
+"Me too," Ben says. "Maybe the owner will let us."
+
+They knock on the window. A man opens the door. He is old and has gray hair. He smiles at Sara and Ben.
+
+"Hello, kids," he says. "Do you like my car?"
+
+"Yes, sir," Sara and Ben say. "It is very fancy."
+
+"Thank you," the man says. "This car is very special to me. It was my youth car. I bought it when I was young and had fun with it. But now I have to part with it. I am moving to another place and I can't take it with me."
+
+"That's sad," Sara says. "Where are you going?"
+
+"I'm going to live with my son and his family. They have a big house and a farm. I will help them with the animals and the plants. I think I will be happy there."
+
+"That's good," Ben says. "But what will happen to your car?"
+
+"I'm going to sell it to someone who will take good care of it. Someone who will love it as much as I do. Maybe someone like you, when you grow up."
+
+Sara and Ben look at each other. They both have a big dream. They hope that one day, they will have a fancy car like the man's. They thank him for letting them see his car and say goodbye. They run back to the park and play some more. They are happy and they are friends.
+Tom and Lily were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells and rocks. Sometimes they found crabs and starfish too.
+
+One day, they saw a man selling something from a big bucket. They went closer and saw that he had oysters. Oysters were animals that lived in shells. The man opened the shells and gave the oysters to people who paid him money.
+
+"Mom, what are oysters?" Tom asked.
+
+"They are a kind of food that some people like to eat. They are supposed to be delicious, but they are also very salty and slimy," Mom said.
+
+"Can we try one?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom looked at Dad and shrugged. "Sure, why not? It might be fun to try something new. But you don't have to eat it if you don't like it," she said.
+
+She gave the man some money and he gave her two oysters. He also gave her a small fork and a lemon.
+
+"Here you go, kids. This is how you eat an oyster. You use the fork to loosen it from the shell, then you squeeze some lemon juice on it, and then you slurp it down your mouth," he said.
+
+He showed them how to do it and then smiled. "Do you want to try?"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other and then at the oysters. They were curious, but also a little scared. They looked at Mom and Dad, who nodded and smiled.
+
+"Okay, let's try," Tom said.
+
+He picked up an oyster and did what the man said. He put it in his mouth and made a face. He did not like it at all. It was too salty and slimy and he spat it out.
+
+"Yuck! I don't like oysters!" he said.
+
+Lily saw Tom's reaction and decided to be brave. She picked up the other oyster and did the same thing. She put it in her mouth and closed her eyes. She liked it very much. It was juicy and tasty and she swallowed it.
+
+"Mmm! I like oysters!" she said.
+
+Mom and Dad laughed and hugged them. They were proud of them for trying something new.
+
+"Good for you, Lily. You have a good palate. And good for you, Tom. You were brave to try it, even if you didn't like it. Maybe you will like something else better," Mom said.
+
+"Can we have ice cream now?" Tom suggested.
+
+"That sounds like a great idea. Let's go get some ice cream," Dad said.
+
+They all walked to the ice cream shop and enjoyed their treats. Tom and Lily agreed that ice cream was delicious, even if they had different opinions on oysters.
+Tom and Mia were going to the station with Mom. They wanted to see the big trains that went fast and made loud noises. They had their raincoats and boots on, because it was raining a lot.
+
+"Mom, can we jump in the puddles?" Mia asked.
+
+"Only a little bit, and be careful not to get too wet," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Mia ran ahead and splashed in the water. They laughed and had fun. Mom smiled and followed them.
+
+When they got to the station, they saw a big train waiting. It was red and shiny and had a lot of windows. They heard the whistle blow and the doors open.
+
+"Come on, let's go inside," Mom said. "We have tickets to ride the train."
+
+Tom and Mia were excited. They followed Mom and got on the train. They found their seats and looked out the window. They saw the rain falling on the tracks and the trees.
+
+The train started to move. It went faster and faster. It made a rough sound as it went over the rails.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Tom said.
+
+"I like the train!" Mia said.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I'm glad you do. We're going to have a great day."
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big post with a sign on it. The sign had many words and pictures that they did not know. They were excited and wanted to see what it was.
+
+"Let's go to the post!" Tim said.
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. Mom said not to wander too far from home," Sam said.
+
+They ran to the post and looked at the sign. It had a picture of a dog and a cat and some numbers. They tried to read the words, but they were too hard.
+
+"What does it say?" Tim asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it's a game," Sam said.
+
+They touched the sign and tried to move it. It was very heavy and did not move. They pushed harder and harder, until the sign fell off the post. It made a loud noise and landed on the ground.
+
+"Uh-oh," Tim said.
+
+"Run!" Sam said.
+
+They tried to run away, but it was too late. A big man came out of a house near the post. He was very angry and shouted at them.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What did you do to my sign? That was my garage sale sign! You broke it! Come here, right now!"
+
+He grabbed Tim and Sam by their arms and dragged them to his house. He called their mom and told her what they did. Their mom was very mad and came to get them. She said they were in big trouble and had to pay for the sign. They had to go home and stay in their room for a long time. They were not excited anymore. They were sad and sorry. They wished they had not wandered to the post.
+Anna likes to design things. She draws pictures of houses, cars, and animals. She uses crayons, stickers, and glitter. She has a lot of fun.
+
+One day, she decides to design a bathtub. She thinks bathtubs are boring. They are only white and plain. She wants to make them colorful and pretty. She gets some paper, scissors, and tape. She cuts out shapes and patterns. She tapes them on the bathtub. She makes a rainbow, a flower, and a star.
+
+She is very busy. She does not hear her mom calling her. She does not see her brother coming in. He wants to take a bath. He sees the paper on the bathtub. He thinks it is a mess. He pulls it off. He throws it in the trash.
+
+Anna hears the noise. She runs to the bathroom. She sees her brother in the bathtub. She sees her paper in the trash. She is very sad. She cries. She says, "You ruined my design!"
+
+Her brother is sorry. He did not know it was her design. He says, "I'm sorry, Anna. I did not mean to hurt your feelings. I thought it was trash. Can I help you make a new design?"
+
+Anna stops crying. She thinks for a moment. She says, "Okay. But you have to use my crayons, stickers, and glitter. And you have to listen to me. I am the designer."
+
+Her brother agrees. He gets out of the bathtub. He dries himself. He puts on his clothes. He helps Anna get her paper, scissors, and tape. They work together. They make a new design. They make a sun, a heart, and a moon.
+
+They are very happy. They show their mom their design. She says, "Wow, that is a beautiful bathtub. You are very creative. I'm proud of you."
+
+Anna and her brother hug. They say, "Thank you, mom. We love you." They love their design. They love each other. They are not busy anymore. They are happy.
+Bella was a dog who loved bones. She had many bones in her house, but she wanted more. She saw a lovely bone in the shop window. It was big and shiny and had meat on it. She wanted to have it.
+
+She asked her owner, Sam, to buy it for her. "Please, Sam, can I have that bone? It is so lovely. I will be very happy if you give it to me."
+
+Sam loved Bella, but he knew she had enough bones. He said, "No, Bella, you don't need that bone. You have many bones at home. You should be happy with what you have. That bone is too expensive and too big for you. Come on, let's go home."
+
+Bella was sad and angry. She did not listen to Sam. She thought he was mean and stingy. She ran away from him and went to the shop. She saw the door was open and no one was inside. She sneaked in and grabbed the lovely bone. She ran out with it in her mouth.
+
+She was very proud of herself. She thought she was clever and lucky. She did not see the big sign on the door that said, "Beware of the guard dog." She did not hear the loud bark behind her. She did not feel the sharp teeth on her tail.
+
+She dropped the lovely bone and yelped in pain. She saw a huge dog chasing her. It was the guard dog. It was angry and hungry. It wanted the lovely bone. It wanted to bite Bella.
+
+Bella was scared and sorry. She wished she had listened to Sam. She wished she had been happy with her bones. She wished she had not been greedy and sneaky. She ran as fast as she could to Sam. She hoped he would save her.
+
+Sam saw Bella running towards him. He saw the guard dog behind her. He saw the lovely bone on the ground. He understood what had happened. He was worried and angry. He shouted at Bella, "Bella, what have you done? You have been very naughty and foolish. You have put yourself in danger. You have put me in trouble. You have put the shop owner in loss. You have put the guard dog in rage. You have to learn to be grateful and honest. You have to say sorry and give back the bone."
+
+Bella nodded and whimpered. She was ashamed and sorry. She followed Sam to the shop. She gave back the lovely bone. She said sorry to the shop owner. She said sorry to the guard dog. She said sorry to Sam.
+
+Sam hugged Bella and forgave her. He said, "Bella, I love you, but you have to be careful and good. You have to listen to me and trust me. I know what is best for you. I want you to be happy and safe. You don't need a lovely bone to be happy. You need love and kindness. You have that in your home. You have that in your heart. Let's go home and enjoy your bones."
+
+Bella licked Sam and thanked him. She learned her lesson. She was happy and safe. She did not want a lovely bone anymore. She wanted love and kindness. She had that in her home. She had that in her heart. She went home and enjoyed her bones.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the living room. They liked to make a tent with a big blanket and some chairs. They put their toys and books inside the tent and pretended they were camping.
+
+"Shh, we have to be quiet," Lily whispered to Ben. "There are bears outside."
+
+Ben nodded and zipped up the blanket. He liked to zip things. He zipped his jacket, his backpack, and his pencil case. He thought zipping was fun.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was their dad, snoring on the armchair. He was very tired from work and fell asleep with the TV on. The TV was noisy. It had people talking and laughing and music playing.
+
+Ben and Lily giggled. They thought their dad was funny. They crawled out of the tent and tiptoed to the armchair. They wanted to wake him up and say hello.
+
+"Boo!" they shouted together, jumping on the armchair.
+
+Their dad woke up with a start. He looked at them and smiled.
+
+"Hey, you two. What are you doing?" he asked.
+
+"We are camping, daddy. Do you want to join us?" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, why not. Let me turn off the TV first. It's too noisy," he said.
+
+He turned off the TV and followed Ben and Lily to the tent. He zipped up the blanket and hugged them.
+
+"I love you, daddy," they said.
+
+"I love you, too, my little campers," he said.
+Lily liked to play with her dad's office things. She liked the pens, the papers, the stapler and the scissors. She liked to make drawings and cut them out. She liked to pretend she was working like her dad.
+
+One day, her dad was working at home. He had a large office in the basement. He had a big desk, a big chair, a big computer and a big phone. He had to talk to many people and write many things. He was very busy.
+
+Lily wanted to play with him. She went down to the basement and knocked on the door. "Dad, can I play with you?" she asked.
+
+"Not now, Lily. I have to work. I have to improve my report. It is very important. Maybe later, okay?" her dad said.
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to help her dad. She wanted to improve his report too. She thought she could make it more pretty and more fun. She saw some papers on his desk. They had many words and numbers. She took some pens and started to draw on them. She drew flowers, stars, hearts and animals. She used many colors. She thought they looked much better.
+
+She was very proud of her work. She wanted to show her dad. She ran to his chair and said, "Dad, look! I improved your report! Do you like it?"
+
+Her dad turned around and saw his papers. He was very shocked. He saw his report was ruined. He saw Lily's drawings all over it. He was very angry. He said, "Lily, what did you do? You did not improve my report. You spoiled it. You made a big mess. You should not touch my office things. They are not toys. They are for work. Go to your room. Now!"
+
+Lily was very scared. She saw her dad's face. He was very red. He was very loud. She did not understand. She thought she did something good. She thought he would be happy. She started to cry. She ran to her room. She felt very bad. She did not want to play with his office things anymore. She did not want to make him angry anymore. She wanted to make him happy. She wanted to say sorry. But she did not know how.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys. But they are also competitive. They want to have the best toys and the most toys.
+
+One day, they see a big box in the living room. It has a handle on it. They wonder what is inside. They run to the box and try to open it.
+
+"Let me open it!" Lily says. She pulls the handle hard.
+
+"No, me!" Ben says. He pushes Lily away and grabs the handle.
+
+They both pull and push. The handle breaks off. The box does not open. They look at each other. They are sad and angry.
+
+Mom comes in. She sees the broken handle and the unhappy twins. She shakes her head.
+
+"What happened here?" she asks.
+
+"We wanted to open the box!" Lily says.
+
+"But we broke the handle!" Ben says.
+
+Mom sighs. She hugs them and says, "I'm sorry, my loves. The box is a surprise for your birthday. It has a special toy for each of you. But you have to wait until tomorrow. And you have to share and be nice to each other. Can you do that?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They say sorry to Mom and to each other. They hug and say, "We love you, Mom. We love you, twin."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "I love you, too. Now, let's go and play with your other toys. And tomorrow, we'll open the box together."
+Lily and Max were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. They used a cable as a rope to tie up their enemies. The cable was long and blue and had plugs at the ends.
+
+"Arr, I found the gold, matey!" Max said, holding a shiny coin. "Let's share it and buy some candy!"
+
+"No, I want it all!" Lily said, snatching the coin from Max. "I am the captain and you are my prisoner!"
+
+"That's not fair!" Max said, trying to get the coin back. "You are a bad pirate and a mean sister!"
+
+Lily and Max started to fight over the coin. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not hear their mom calling them for lunch.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom said, coming into the living room. "What are you doing with that cable? You could hurt yourselves or break something!"
+
+"We are playing pirates, Mom!" Lily said. "And this is our treasure!"
+
+"Well, you need to play nicely and share," Mom said. "Or you will have no treasure and no lunch. Decide what you want to do."
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other. They both wanted the coin and the lunch. But they also did not want to make Mom angry. They were stubborn, but they were not stupid.
+
+"OK, Mom," Lily said. "We will share the coin and the cable. Right, Max?"
+
+"Right, Lily," Max said. "We are sorry, Mom. We are good pirates and good siblings."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. "That's better," she said. "Now, let's go and have some yummy sandwiches. And maybe some candy later, if you behave."
+
+Lily and Max nodded and followed Mom to the kitchen. They put the coin and the cable in their pocket. They decided to play pirates again after lunch. But this time, they would be nice and fair.
+Anna liked to play in the garden with her cat, Max. She liked to look at the flowers and the bugs and the birds. She liked to pick some flowers and carry them to her mom. She also liked to carry Max, but he was heavy and sometimes he scratched her.
+
+One day, Anna saw a green snake in the grass. She had never seen a snake before. She thought it was a long and shiny toy. She wanted to carry it and show it to her mom. She reached out her hand to grab the snake.
+
+"Anna, no!" her mom shouted from the porch. "That's not a toy, that's a snake! It can bite you and hurt you!"
+
+Anna was scared and pulled back her hand. The snake hissed and slithered away. Anna ran to her mom and hugged her. She was crying.
+
+"It's okay, sweetie," her mom said. "You're safe now. That snake was harmless, but you should never touch a snake or any wild animal. They might be afraid of you and try to defend themselves. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna nodded. She understood. She was sorry for trying to carry the snake. She was glad her mom was there to protect her. She gave her mom a kiss and a flower. She also gave Max a pat. He was a good cat. He didn't bite or hurt her. He was her friend.
+Lily is a cute girl who likes to play with her dolls. She has many dolls, but her favorite one is Anna. Anna has a pink dress, blue eyes and long hair. Lily likes to brush Anna's hair and make her look pretty.

+One day, Lily decides to give Anna a bath. She fills the sink with warm water and soap. She takes off Anna's dress and puts her in the water. She washes Anna's hair and body with a sponge. She says, "You are a good girl, Anna. You like the bath, don't you?"
+
+After the bath, Lily wraps Anna in a soft towel. She dries her hair and body. She says, "Now you are clean and cozy, Anna. You need a bathrobe, like me." Lily has a bathrobe that is white and fluffy. She puts it on and ties the belt. She looks for a bathrobe for Anna, but she can't find one.
+
+She thinks for a moment. Then she has an idea. She takes a small towel and folds it. She makes a hole in the middle and puts it over Anna's head. She says, "There, now you have a bathrobe, too. It is not as nice as mine, but it is still cute. You look like a little angel, Anna."
+
+Lily hugs Anna and carries her to her room. She puts her on the bed and covers her with a blanket. She says, "Good night, Anna. I love you. You are my best friend." She kisses Anna and turns off the light. She falls asleep with a smile on her face.
+Lily liked to sign with her hands. She learned sign from her mom, who was deaf. Lily could hear, but she liked to talk with her mom in sign. She also liked to teach sign to her friends at school.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big jar of honey in the kitchen. She loved honey. She wanted to put some on her toast. She asked her mom in sign if she could have some honey. Her mom nodded and smiled.
+
+Lily opened the jar and poured some honey on her toast. But when she tasted it, she made a face. It was not sweet. It was sour. It was fake honey. Lily felt sad and angry. She asked her mom in sign why the honey was fake. Her mom looked surprised and checked the jar. She saw a label that said "vinegar". She realized she had bought the wrong jar at the store.
+
+She hugged Lily and said sorry in sign. She said she would get real honey next time. She asked Lily if she wanted something else for breakfast. Lily nodded and said in sign she wanted a banana. Her mom peeled a banana and gave it to Lily. Lily smiled and thanked her mom in sign. She ate the banana and felt better. She still liked honey, but she liked her mom more.
+Tom and Mia are playing with blocks. They like to make different shapes with the blocks. Tom has a red block and a blue block. Mia has a yellow block and a green block.
+
+"Look, Mia, I can make a triangle with my blocks!" Tom says. He puts the red block on top of the blue block and makes a point.
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is a good triangle!" Mia says. She tries to make a triangle with her blocks, but she cannot. She only has two blocks.
+
+"Can I have one more block, Tom?" Mia asks. "Then I can make a triangle too."
+
+"Sure, Mia, you can have my red block," Tom says. He gives Mia his red block. He is a nice friend.
+
+Mia puts the red block on top of the yellow block and makes a point. Then she puts the green block under the yellow block and makes a base.
+
+"Look, Tom, I made a triangle too!" Mia says. She is happy.
+
+"Wow, Mia, that is a rare triangle!" Tom says. He sees that Mia's triangle has three different colors. He likes Mia's triangle. He is a kind friend.
+
+Tom and Mia recognize each other's triangles. They smile and clap. They are proud of their shapes. They keep playing with the blocks. They have fun.
+Tom and Mia liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. One day, they saw a big book on a bench. It was a diary. It had many words and pictures inside.
+
+"Who does this diary belong to?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe someone forgot it here," Mia said.
+
+They opened the diary and looked at the pages. They saw stories about a superhero. The superhero had a powerful cape. The cape could make him fly, turn invisible and shoot lasers.
+
+"Wow, this is cool!" Tom said. "I wish I had a powerful cape like that."
+
+"Me too," Mia said. "Maybe we can try it on."
+
+They looked around and saw no one. They took the diary and the cape and ran to a quiet spot. They put on the cape and felt a tingling sensation.
+
+"Let's see what it can do," Tom said. He pressed a button on the cape and flew up in the air.
+
+"Tom, be careful!" Mia shouted.
+
+Tom laughed and flew around the park. He felt happy and free. He saw birds, trees and clouds. He waved at Mia and said, "This is awesome!"
+
+Mia smiled and pressed another button on the cape. She turned invisible. She ran behind Tom and tapped his shoulder.
+
+"Boo!" she said.
+
+Tom was surprised and looked around. He couldn't see Mia.
+
+"Mia, where are you?" he asked.
+
+"I'm here, silly. I'm invisible," Mia said.
+
+She pressed the button again and reappeared. Tom saw her and hugged her.
+
+"You scared me," he said.
+
+They laughed and played with the cape. They had fun and felt powerful. They didn't notice that someone was watching them. It was the owner of the diary. He was angry and wanted his cape back. He waited for the right moment to get it. He had a plan. He was going to teach them a lesson. He was going to show them who was the real superhero.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park in summer. They liked to swing, slide and run. But their favorite thing was to squeeze the water balloons.
+
+One day, they found a big box of water balloons near the fountain. They were very happy. They filled the balloons with water and tied them. Then they hid behind the trees and waited for someone to come.
+
+Soon, they saw a man walking with a big hat and a coat. He looked very hot and tired. Tom and Lily thought he was foolish. They decided to squeeze a water balloon at him.
+
+"Ready, aim, squeeze!" Tom whispered to Lily. They threw the water balloon with all their might. But they missed the man. The water balloon flew over his head and landed on a woman behind him. She was wearing a nice dress and holding a cake.
+
+"Splash!" The water balloon burst and soaked the woman and the cake. She screamed and dropped the cake. The man turned around and saw what happened. He was angry and scared. He ran away from the park.
+
+Tom and Lily were shocked. They did not mean to hit the woman. They felt sorry and scared. They ran away from the park too. They learned a lesson. They decided not to squeeze water balloons at people anymore. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They were still best friends.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. There is a big oak tree in the park. The oak tree has many leaves and acorns. Sara and Tom like to sit under the oak tree and talk.
+
+One day, Sara and Tom see a squirrel on the oak tree. The squirrel is brown and fluffy. It has a long tail and sharp teeth. Sara and Tom think the squirrel is cute. They want to pet the squirrel.
+
+"Hello, squirrel!" Sara says. "Can we be your friends?"
+
+The squirrel looks at Sara and Tom. It does not say anything. It jumps from the oak tree to the ground. It runs towards Sara and Tom.
+
+"Maybe it wants to play with us!" Tom says. He reaches out his hand to the squirrel.
+
+But the squirrel does not want to play. It is angry and scared. It thinks Sara and Tom want to take its acorns. It bites Tom's hand hard. Tom screams and cries. He drops his hand and sees blood.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom says. "The squirrel hurt me!"
+
+Sara is shocked and scared. She runs to Tom and hugs him. She sees the squirrel run away. She is angry and sad.
+
+"Bad squirrel!" Sara says. "Why did you do that?"
+
+Sara and Tom go to the nurse. The nurse cleans Tom's hand and puts a bandage on it. She tells Sara and Tom to be careful with wild animals. She says wild animals are not friendly like pets. They can be dangerous and bite.
+
+Sara and Tom learn a lesson. They do not try to pet squirrels anymore. They still like to sit under the oak tree and talk. But they leave the squirrels alone. They respect the squirrels and their acorns. They know the squirrels are not their friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy rockets in the garden. They liked to pretend they were going to different planets and having adventures. Lily had a red rocket and Ben had a blue one.
+
+"Look, I'm going to the green planet!" Lily said, holding her rocket in the air. "It has lots of trees and animals and flowers. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+"No, I'm going to the yellow planet!" Ben said, shaking his rocket. "It has lots of sand and rocks and sun. It's much better than your planet!"
+
+Lily felt sad. She thought Ben was being rude. She wanted to play with him, not fight. She put down her rocket and said, "Why are you shaking your rocket? You'll break it!"
+
+Ben didn't listen. He kept shaking his rocket harder and harder. He wanted to make it go faster and louder. He said, "I don't care! My rocket is stronger than yours! Watch this!"
+
+He threw his rocket in the air, but it didn't fly. It fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Ben was shocked. He ran to his rocket and tried to fix it, but it was too late. He started to cry.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Ben. She knew he loved his rocket. She picked up her rocket and walked to him. She said, "I'm sorry your rocket broke. Do you want to play with mine? We can share it and go to both planets."
+
+Ben looked at Lily and nodded. He wiped his tears and smiled. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You're very kind. I'm sorry I was rude. Can we be friends?"
+
+Lily hugged Ben and said, "Of course we can. Friends are better than rockets. Come on, let's go to the green planet first. I'll show you the animals and flowers."
+
+They held hands and ran to the garden. They played with the toy rocket and had fun. They learned to be nice and share. They were happy.
+Tom and Sue like to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They pretend to be drivers and cops. Sometimes they chase each other and make loud noises.
+
+One day, they find a big ball in the park. It is red and shiny. They want to play with it. They take turns to roll the ball and run after it. They have fun with the ball.
+
+But then, a boy comes and sees the ball. He likes the ball too. He tries to take it from Tom and Sue. He says, "This is my ball. Give it to me." He pushes Tom and grabs the ball.
+
+Tom and Sue are sad and angry. They want their ball back. They say, "No, this is our ball. We found it first. You are mean." They try to pull the ball from the boy.
+
+The boy does not listen. He runs away with the ball. He thinks he is smart. He does not see a cop behind him. The cop sees the boy and the ball. He knows the ball is not his. He says, "Stop, boy. Where did you get that ball?"
+
+The boy is scared. He drops the ball and runs away. The cop picks up the ball and gives it to Tom and Sue. He says, "Here you go, kids. This is your ball. You can play with it. But be careful. Do not fight over it. Share it with others. That is the right thing to do."
+
+Tom and Sue thank the cop. They are happy to have their ball back. They learn to be nice and fair. They also invite other kids to play with them and the ball. They have more fun together. They are healthy and happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the yard. They saw a big pile of leaves that their dad had made with a rake. The rake was a tool with a long stick and many teeth. Ben and Lily wanted to jump in the leaves and have fun.
+
+"Can we play in the leaves, dad?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, you can't. I worked hard to rake the leaves. If you play in them, you will make a mess. Go play with your toys instead." Dad said.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not listen. They were persistent. They waited until dad went inside the house. Then they ran to the pile of leaves and jumped in. They laughed and threw leaves in the air. They did not see dad coming back.
+
+Dad was very angry when he saw what Ben and Lily had done. He shouted at them and made them get out of the leaves. He took away their toys and sent them to their room. He said they could not play outside for a week.
+
+Ben and Lily were very sad. They cried and said they were sorry. They wondered why dad was so mean. They did not have any fun. They wished they had listened to dad.
+Tim and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they do not like to share. One day, they both want to have the same book. It is a book about animals.
+
+"Give me the book!" Tim says. He pulls the book from Lily.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Lily says. She pulls the book from Tim.
+
+They pull and pull. The book has a knot on the cover. The knot is a string that holds the book together. The knot comes loose. The book falls apart. The pages fly everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Tim and Lily say. They look at the book. They feel sad. They broke the book.
+
+Mama comes in. She sees the book. She sees Tim and Lily. She is not happy.
+
+"What did you do?" Mama asks. "This was a nice book. Now it is ruined."
+
+"We are sorry, Mama," Tim and Lily say. "We both wanted to have the book. We did not share. We pulled the knot."
+
+Mama sighs. She picks up the pages. She tries to fix the book. She says, "You need to learn to share. Sharing is good. Sharing is kind. If you share, you can have more fun. And you can take care of your things."
+
+Tim and Lily nod. They say, "We will share, Mama. We will be obedient. We will not pull knots."
+
+Mama smiles. She hugs them. She says, "That is good. I love you, Tim and Lily. Now, let's read the book together. Maybe we can find a new knot for the cover."
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the garden. One day, they see a big box near the fence. They are curious. They crawl to the box and look inside.
+
+"Wow!" Sara says. "There are many toys in the box. Dolls, cars, balls, books. Can we take some?"
+
+Ben nods. He likes the toys too. He reaches for a car. But then he feels a shock. He screams and drops the car. Sara sees sparks coming from the box. She is scared.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" Sara asks. She hugs her brother.
+
+Ben rubs his hand. He is in pain. He cries. "The box is bad. It hurts. It has wires and batteries. It is not for toys. It is for something else."
+
+Sara and Ben crawl away from the box. They run to their mom. They tell her what happened. Mom is angry. She calls the owner of the box. She says the box is dangerous. She says the owner should not leave it in the garden. She says the owner should be fair and give Sara and Ben some real toys. The owner is sorry. He says he will do that. He says he will take the box away.
+
+Sara and Ben are happy. They get some real toys from the owner. They play with them in the garden. They are careful. They do not touch any boxes they do not know. They have fun.
+Lily liked to play with her mom's bracelet. It was shiny and made a nice sound when she moved her wrist. But mom said she could only play with it when she asked first. Lily did not like to ask. She wanted to have the bracelet all the time.
+
+One day, Lily saw the bracelet on the table. Mom was not in the room. Lily ran to the table and grabbed the bracelet. She put it on her wrist and smiled. She felt like a princess. She did not hear mom coming back.
+
+"Hey, Lily, what are you doing with my bracelet?" mom asked. She sounded angry. "You know you have to ask me before you take it. That's not nice."
+
+Lily did not want to give back the bracelet. She liked it too much. She shook her head and said, "No, it's mine. I want it. You give it to me."
+
+Mom frowned. She did not like Lily's tone. She said, "Lily, that's not how you talk to me. That's rude and bad. You have to say please and thank you. And you have to share. The bracelet is mine, not yours. You can play with it sometimes, but you have to give it back when I ask. Now, give it back to me, please."
+
+Lily did not listen. She held the bracelet tight and said, "No, no, no. I demand it. You can't have it. It's mine, mine, mine."
+
+Mom was very upset. She said, "Lily, that's enough. You are being very naughty and selfish. You are not acting like a good girl. If you don't give me back the bracelet right now, you will go to time out. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily did not want to go to time out. She knew that meant sitting in a corner and not playing. But she also did not want to lose the bracelet. She did not know what to do. She looked at mom and saw her serious face. She looked at the bracelet and saw how pretty it was. She felt a big cry coming. She did not like this feeling. She wished she had asked mom first. She wished she had been a good girl.
+Sara and Ben liked to play in the big park. They liked to run on the grass, swing on the swings, and slide on the slides. They also liked to look at the view from the top of the hill. They could see the trees, the flowers, and the birds. They felt warm and happy.
+
+One day, a mean boy came to the park. He had a big bike and a loud voice. He rode his bike on the grass, making it dirty. He pushed Sara and Ben off the swings, making them fall. He blocked the slides, making them wait. He laughed at them and called them names. He made them feel sad and angry.
+
+Sara and Ben tried to ignore the mean boy. They decided to go to the top of the hill and look at the view. They hoped he would not follow them. They climbed the hill and saw the view. It was still beautiful and bright. They smiled and hugged each other.
+
+But the mean boy saw them. He rode his bike up the hill. He shouted at them and told them to go away. He said the view was his and he did not want to share. He tried to push them off the hill. Sara and Ben were scared and angry. They said no and tried to stop him.
+
+But the mean boy was stronger and faster. He pushed Sara and Ben hard. They lost their balance and fell off the hill. They rolled down the hill and hit a big rock. They felt a lot of pain and cried. The mean boy looked at them and laughed. He shut his eyes and enjoyed the view. He felt warm and happy.
+Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. They have a big box full of toys. They have dolls, cars, blocks, books and more.
+
+One day, they have a new game. They try to fit as many toys as they can in the box. They take out the toys and put them back in different ways. They laugh and talk as they play.
+
+"Look, I can fit three dolls and two cars in this corner," Lily says.
+
+"That's good, but I can fit four blocks and one book in this side," Tom says.
+
+They keep playing until the box is full of toys. They are happy and proud of their game.
+
+But then, they hear a noise. It is their mom. She is coming to their room. She wants to wake them up for breakfast. They forgot that it is morning and they should be sleeping.
+
+"Oh no, mom is here! Quick, hide the toys!" Lily whispers.
+
+"Where? There is no space!" Tom whispers back.
+
+They look around. They see their bed. They have an idea. They grab the box and try to fit it under the bed. But the box is too big. It does not fit. It gets stuck.
+
+Mom opens the door. She sees the twins and the box. She smiles.
+
+"Good morning, Lily and Tom. What are you doing with that box?" she asks.
+
+"Um, we are playing a game, mom," Lily says.
+
+"A game? What kind of game?" mom asks.
+
+"A game where we try to fit toys in the box," Tom says.
+
+Mom nods. She understands. She remembers when she was a child and played similar games.
+
+"That sounds like a fun game. But you know what? It is time for breakfast. And you need to clean up your room after that. Can you do that for me?" she says.
+
+Lily and Tom nod. They are hungry and they love breakfast. They also know that they have to tidy up their room.
+
+"Okay, mom. We will do that. But can we finish our game later?" they ask.
+
+Mom thinks for a moment. She sees the joy in their eyes. She decides to let them play a little more.
+
+"Sure, you can finish your game later. But only after you eat and clean up. And be careful with the box. It does not fit under the bed. You might break it or hurt yourselves," she says.
+
+Lily and Tom thank mom. They hug her and follow her to the kitchen. They are happy. They love their mom. They love their game. They love their toys. They love each other.
+Tom and Mia like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make roads with blocks and books. They zoom their cars on the roads and make noises. Vroom, vroom, beep, beep!
+
+One day, they find a big glass jar in the kitchen. It is shiny and clear. They think it is a good place to put their cars. They open the jar and put some cars inside. They shake the jar and watch the cars move. They laugh and clap.
+
+But then, they hear Mom coming. She is angry. She sees the jar and the cars. She says, "What are you doing? That is a dangerous jar. It can break and cut you. And you can't put cars in there. They need air to breathe. Give me the jar, now!"
+
+Tom and Mia are scared. They did not know the jar was dangerous. They did not know the cars needed air. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We just wanted to play. We won't do it again."
+
+Mom takes the jar and the cars. She puts the jar away and gives the cars back. She says, "It's okay. I know you were curious. But you have to be careful with glass. And you have to respect your toys. They are not for putting in jars. They are for zooming on roads. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Mia nod. They say, "Yes, Mom. We understand. We love our cars. We will zoom them on roads. And we will stay away from glass."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "Good. I love you. Now, go and play. But be careful."
+
+Tom and Mia hug Mom. They say, "We love you, too. Thank you, Mom." They go and play with their cars. They zoom them on roads and make noises. Vroom, vroom, beep, beep!
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big rainbow in the sky. It has many colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
+
+"Wow, look at the rainbow!" Lily says. "It is so beautiful!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Tom says. "Do you know where it starts and where it ends?"
+
+Lily shakes her head. "No, I don't. Do you?"
+
+Tom points to the sky. "I think it starts over there, behind the trees. And it ends over there, behind the hill."
+
+"Let's go and find it!" Lily says. "Maybe there is a pot of gold at the end!"
+
+They run to the trees and look for the start of the rainbow. But they can't see it. It is too far away.
+
+They run to the hill and look for the end of the rainbow. But they can't see it either. It is too far away too.
+
+They are sad. They want to see the rainbow up close.
+
+"Don't be sad," Tom says. "The rainbow is still beautiful, even if we can't touch it."
+
+"You are right," Lily says. "It is a gift from the sun and the rain. They make the rainbow for us to enjoy."
+
+They smile and hug. They are happy. They look at the rainbow and say thank you.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a yellow taxi in the garage. It was their dad's taxi, but he was not home. They wanted to pretend to be drivers and passengers.
+
+"Can I drive first?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, I want to drive first!" Ben said.
+
+They both grabbed the steering wheel and pulled hard. They heard a loud snap. The wheel came off in their hands. They gasped and looked at each other. They felt guilty. They broke their dad's taxi.
+
+They heard their mom coming. They quickly hid the wheel under a blanket and ran to their room. They hoped their mom would not find out.
+
+But their mom was smart. She saw the blanket in the garage and lifted it. She saw the broken wheel and frowned. She knew it was Lily and Ben. She went to their room and knocked on the door.
+
+"Lily, Ben, did you play with your dad's taxi?" she asked.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They did not want to lie, but they were scared. They did not answer.
+
+Their mom opened the door and saw their faces. She knew they were guilty.
+
+"Lily, Ben, you should not play with your dad's taxi. It is not a toy. It is his work. He needs it to drive people and earn money. You broke it and now he cannot finish his work. How do you think he will feel?" she said.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry. They knew they did a bad thing. They hugged their mom and said they were sorry.
+
+"We are sorry, mom. We did not mean to break it. We just wanted to play. We will not do it again. Can you fix it?" they said.
+
+Their mom sighed and hugged them back. She was not happy, but she loved them.
+
+"I will try to fix it, but I don't know if I can. You have to tell your dad what you did and apologize to him. He will be upset, but he will forgive you. He loves you too. But you have to promise me you will not touch his taxi again. Do you understand?" she said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said they understood. They waited for their dad to come home. They were nervous, but they knew they had to tell the truth. They hoped their dad would not be too angry. They hoped he could finish his work. They hoped he could still drive his yellow taxi.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big box in the garage. The box has many screws and tools. Ben and Mia want to make something with the screws and tools.
+
+"Let's study the box and see what we can do," Ben says. He opens the box and takes out a screw. He holds it in his hand and looks at it. "This is a screw. It is shiny and hard. We can use it to join things together."
+
+Mia nods and picks up a tool. It is a screwdriver. It has a purple handle and a metal tip. "This is a screwdriver. It is purple and pointy. We can use it to turn the screws," she says. She puts the screwdriver in her hand and tries to turn the screw.
+
+But the screw is too big for the screwdriver. Mia cannot turn it. She frowns and says, "This screwdriver is too small for this screw. We need a bigger one."
+
+Ben looks in the box and finds another screwdriver. It has a yellow handle and a bigger tip. "This screwdriver is bigger. Maybe it can turn the screw," he says. He gives it to Mia and she tries again.
+
+This time, the screwdriver fits the screw. Mia turns it and the screw moves. She smiles and says, "It works! We can turn the screw with this screwdriver. Let's find more screws and make something fun."
+
+Ben and Mia study the box and find more screws and tools. They use them to make a robot. The robot has a head, a body, two arms, and two legs. It has screws for eyes, a nose, and a mouth. It has tools for hands and feet. It is colorful and funny.
+
+Ben and Mia are happy. They have made a robot with screws and tools. They hug the robot and say, "We love you, robot. You are our friend." The robot smiles and says, "Beep beep. I love you too, Ben and Mia. You are my friends."
+Lily saw a kitten in the park. The kitten was small and gray. It had blue eyes and a pink nose. Lily liked the kitten. She wanted to play with it.
+
+She ran to the kitten and said, "Hello, kitten. Do you want to be my friend?" She reached out her hand to pet the kitten. But the kitten was scared. It hissed and scratched Lily's hand. Lily cried out in pain.
+
+A boy saw what happened. He was older than Lily. He had a red hat and a bike. He came to Lily and said, "Are you okay? That kitten is mean. It does not like people. You should not touch it."
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She said, "No, the kitten is not mean. It is just afraid. I want to make it happy. I want to take it home with me."
+
+She grabbed the kitten by the tail and tried to pull it. The kitten yowled and bit Lily's arm. Lily screamed and let go of the tail. The boy said, "Stop it! You are hurting the kitten. That is not how you play with animals. You are being harsh."
+
+Lily looked at the boy. She saw that he was right. She had been harsh. She felt sorry for the kitten. She said, "I'm sorry, kitten. I did not mean to hurt you. I just wanted to be your friend. Can you forgive me?"
+
+She gently stroked the kitten's head. The kitten stopped hissing and biting. It purred and rubbed its face against Lily's hand. Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, kitten. You are very sweet. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+The boy watched them. He said, "You are very brave, Lily. You are also very kind. Maybe the kitten will like you after all. But you have to be careful. You have to ask your mom and dad if you can keep it. And you have to give it a name."
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "I will ask them. And I will name the kitten Blue. Because it has blue eyes like me." She hugged the kitten and said, "Come on, Blue. Let's go home." She waved to the boy and said, "Bye, thank you for helping me." She walked away with the kitten in her arms. The boy smiled and waved back. He said, "Bye, Lily. You're welcome. Have fun with Blue." He got on his bike and rode away.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and draw pictures. One day, Anna has a new toy. It is a big truck with lights and sounds. Ben wants to play with it, but Anna says no.
+
+"Please, Anna, can I have a turn?" Ben asks.
+
+"No, it is mine. Go away," Anna says. She ignores Ben and plays with the truck.
+
+Ben is sad. He goes to his desk and writes a note. He writes: "Anna, you are not nice. I do not want to be your friend." He puts the note on Anna's chair and leaves.
+
+Anna does not see the note. She is too busy with the truck. She plays with it until it is time to go home. She picks up her backpack and sees the note. She reads it and feels bad.
+
+She runs to the door and looks for Ben. But Ben is gone. He is walking home with another friend. He is smiling and talking. He does not see Anna.
+
+Anna is sorry. She wishes she shared her toy with Ben. She learns that being selfish is not good. She hopes Ben will forgive her and be her friend again. She decides to be kind and share from now on.
+Lily was playing with her doll in the living room. She liked to make her doll talk and answer her questions. She pretended that her doll was her best friend and they had fun together.
+
+But then, she heard a loud noise from the kitchen. It was her brother, Tom, who had dropped a plate on the floor. The plate broke into many pieces and some of them flew across the room. Lily was curious and wanted to see what happened. She ran to the kitchen, but she did not see the broken plate on the floor.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" she cried as she stepped on a sharp piece of plate. It cut her toe and made it bleed. It hurt a lot and she started to cry.
+
+Tom heard her cry and came to see what was wrong. He saw her toe and felt sorry for her. He knew he had made a mess and he should have cleaned it up. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to hurt you. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily was still crying and did not answer him. She was angry and sad. She did not want to talk to him. She wanted her mom to come and help her.
+
+Tom did not know what to do. He wanted to make her feel better, but he did not know how. He wished he had been more careful with the plate. He hoped his mom would come soon and fix everything.
+Sara and Ben are restless. They want to play outside, but it is raining. They look out the window and see the ground is wet and muddy.
+
+"Can we go out, Mom?" Sara asks.
+
+"No, dear, it is too cold and wet. You will get sick," Mom says.
+
+"But we are bored, Mom. We have nothing to do," Ben says.
+
+Mom thinks for a moment. She has an idea.
+
+"Why don't you help me bake some cookies? It will be fun and yummy," Mom says.
+
+Sara and Ben like cookies. They nod and smile.
+
+"Okay, Mom. We will help you," they say.
+
+Mom takes them to the kitchen. She gives them aprons and bowls. She shows them how to measure and mix the ingredients. Sara and Ben help her stir and roll the dough. They use cookie cutters to make different shapes. They put the cookies on a tray and Mom puts them in the oven.
+
+Sara and Ben watch the cookies bake. They smell the sweet aroma. They are not restless anymore. They are happy and excited.
+
+"Thank you for helping me, Sara and Ben. You are very good helpers," Mom says.
+
+"You are welcome, Mom. Thank you for letting us help you. We love you and we love cookies," Sara and Ben say.
+
+Mom hugs them and smiles. She takes the cookies out of the oven and lets them cool. She gives Sara and Ben each a cookie to taste. They bite into the warm and soft cookies. They are delicious.
+
+Sara and Ben are not bored anymore. They are full and satisfied. They are glad they helped Mom. They are glad they stayed inside. They are glad they have cookies.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big box in the garden. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom says. He is clever and strong. He pulls the lid off the box.
+
+"Wow!" Lily says. She is clever and brave. She looks inside the box. She sees many things. She sees a ball, a hat, a doll, and a book. She also sees a big piece of cheese.
+
+"Look, Tom, cheese!" Lily says. She likes cheese. She is hungry. She reaches for the cheese.
+
+"Wait, Lily, don't touch it!" Tom says. He sees something else in the box. He sees a mouse. The mouse is small and brown. It has sharp teeth and a long tail. It likes cheese too. It is hiding behind the cheese.
+
+"Hello, mouse," Tom says. He speaks softly. He does not want to scare the mouse. He wants to be friends with the mouse.
+
+"Hello, boy," the mouse says. It speaks quietly. It does not want to anger the boy. It wants to share the cheese with the boy.
+
+Lily and Tom are surprised. They did not know that mice can speak. They are curious and happy. They smile at the mouse.
+
+"Hello, mouse, we are Lily and Tom," Lily says. She speaks gently. She does not want to hurt the mouse. She wants to play with the mouse.
+
+"Hello, Lily and Tom, I am Max," the mouse says. It speaks kindly. It does not want to lose the cheese. It wants to eat the cheese with Lily and Tom.
+
+Lily, Tom, and Max become friends. They share the cheese and the toys and the books. They have fun in the box. They are clever and nice. They are happy.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big net on the grass. It was for catching butterflies.
+
+"Let's play with the net!" Tom said. He picked up the net and ran after Lila.
+
+"No, Tom, no!" Lila said. She did not want to be caught. She ran away from Tom. She tried to resist the net.
+
+Tom chased Lila around the park. He laughed and shouted. He thought it was fun. He wanted to catch Lila.
+
+Lila ran to a bench. She saw a lady sitting there. The lady was reading a book. She had a modest dress and a hat. She looked nice.
+
+"Help me, please!" Lila said to the lady. "Tom is trying to catch me with the net!"
+
+The lady looked up from her book. She saw Tom running with the net. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, dear. I'll help you."
+
+She stood up and waved her hand. She said to Tom, "Stop, young man. That's not nice. You should not catch your friend with the net. You should share and play nicely."
+
+Tom stopped and looked at the lady. He felt a little ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, lady. I was just playing. I didn't mean to scare Lila."
+
+He walked to the bench and gave the net to Lila. He said, "Here, Lila. You can have the net. I'm sorry I chased you. Do you want to play something else?"
+
+Lila took the net and smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. I forgive you. Yes, let's play something else. Do you want to slide or swing?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, let's slide and swing. That sounds fun."
+
+They thanked the lady and ran to the slide and the swing. They played happily and nicely. They did not use the net anymore. They learned to share and respect.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Anna wants to go on the slide, but Ben is scared.
+
+"Come on, Ben, it is fun!" Anna says.
+
+"No, it is too high and fast. I will fall and hurt myself." Ben says.
+
+Anna thinks of a way to help Ben. She says, "I have an idea. I will go on the slide first, and then you can come after me. I will catch you at the bottom. I promise."
+
+Ben looks at Anna. He trusts her. He says, "Okay, I will try. But you have to catch me. You promise?"
+
+"Yes, I promise. Come on, let's go." Anna says.
+
+They climb up the stairs to the top of the slide. Anna goes first. She slides down fast and laughs. She waits for Ben at the bottom. Ben is nervous. He holds on to the slide. He looks at Anna. She smiles and waves. She says, "You can do it, Ben. I am here. I promise."
+
+Ben takes a deep breath. He lets go of the slide. He slides down fast. He feels the wind in his hair. He feels a little scared, but also a little excited. He sees Anna at the bottom. She opens her arms. She says, "I got you, Ben. I got you."
+
+Ben reaches the bottom. Anna catches him. They hug. They are both happy. They did it. They kept their promise. They are brave. They are friends.
+Anna and Ben are young. They like to play outside. Today, they see a big puddle. It is wet and shiny.
+
+"Look, Ben, a puddle!" Anna says. "Let's skip in it!"
+
+"OK, Anna, that sounds fun!" Ben says. They hold hands and run to the puddle.
+
+They skip in the puddle. They make big splashes. They laugh and giggle. They feel the water on their feet and legs. They are wet and happy.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is Mom. She is not happy.
+
+"Anna! Ben! What are you doing? You are all wet and dirty! Come inside right now!" Mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben stop skipping. They look at Mom. They are sad and sorry.
+
+"Sorry, Mom, we were just playing," Anna says.
+
+"Me too, sorry, Mom," Ben says.
+
+Mom sighs. She loves Anna and Ben, but she does not like the mess. She takes them inside. She gives them dry clothes and towels. She tells them to be more careful next time.
+
+Anna and Ben hug Mom. They say thank you. They are still wet, but they are warm and loved.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find an envelope in the attic. The envelope is old and dusty. It has a stamp and a picture on it.
+
+"Look, Ben, what is this?" Anna asks.
+
+"I don't know, Anna. Maybe it is a letter. Can we open it?" Ben says.
+
+"OK, let's open it. Maybe there is a surprise inside," Anna says.
+
+They open the envelope carefully. Inside, there is a paper. The paper has many words and a map on it. The words are hard to read. The map has a red X on it.
+
+"Wow, this is an ancient paper. Maybe it is a treasure map. Do you want to play treasure hunt, Ben?" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, Anna, that sounds fun. Let's play treasure hunt. Maybe we can find the treasure," Ben says.
+
+They look at the map. They see that the X is near a big tree in the garden. They run to the garden. They look for the big tree. They find it. They dig under the tree. They find a box. They open the box. Inside, there is a necklace with a shiny stone.
+
+"Look, Anna, we found the treasure. It is a beautiful necklace. You can have it. You are my best friend," Ben says.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are my best friend too. This is the best play ever. Let's go and show the necklace to our parents," Anna says.
+
+They run to the house. They show the necklace to their parents. Their parents are surprised and happy. They tell them that the envelope and the paper belong to their great-grandpa. He was an explorer. He hid the necklace for his grandchildren to find. He wrote a letter to tell them the story.
+
+Anna and Ben are amazed. They hug their parents and their great-grandpa's picture. They thank him for the gift. They wear the necklace and play some more. They are very happy.
+Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a big ball and a small ball. They kick the balls and run after them.
+
+One day, they see a new boy in the park. He has a very big ball. It is bigger than Lily's and Sam's balls. The new boy kicks his ball very far. Lily and Sam are jealous. They want a big ball too.
+
+They go to the new boy and say hello. They ask him his name. He says his name is Max. They ask him if they can play with his ball. He says yes, but only if they can measure his ball.
+
+Lily and Sam are confused. They do not know how to measure a ball. They ask Max what he means. He says he has a tape. He shows them his tape. It is long and has numbers on it. He says he can use the tape to see how big his ball is.
+
+He wraps the tape around his ball. He looks at the numbers. He says his ball is 50. He says 50 is a big number. He says his ball is the biggest ball in the park.
+
+Lily and Sam are not impressed. They think Max is mean. They do not want to play with him anymore. They say goodbye and run away. They take their balls with them. They kick their balls and have fun. They do not care how big their balls are. They are happy with their balls. They are happy with each other.
+Sam likes to go to the zoo with his mom and dad. He likes to see the animals and hear their sounds. His favorite animal is the seal. The seal is big and gray and has a funny nose. The seal can swim and jump and clap.
+
+One day, Sam and his mom and dad go to the zoo when it is light outside. They see the seal show. The seal does tricks with a ball and a hoop. Sam claps and laughs. He wants to see more. He asks his mom and dad if they can stay.
+
+But his mom and dad say they have to leave soon. They have to go to the store and buy food. They say they will come back another day. Sam is sad. He does not want to leave the seal. He wants to play with the seal.
+
+Sam has an idea. He runs away from his mom and dad. He goes to the fence where the seal is. He calls the seal. The seal hears him and comes to the fence. Sam smiles. He reaches his hand to touch the seal.
+
+But then he hears his mom and dad. They are looking for him. They are worried and angry. They find him at the fence. They tell him he is naughty. He should not run away. He should stay with them. They take him away from the seal.
+
+Sam cries. He says he is sorry. He says he loves the seal. He says he wants to say goodbye. His mom and dad hug him. They say they love him too. They say they understand. They say they will let him say goodbye to the seal.

+Tim and Jen are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big building. It has many windows and doors. They want to go inside and look.
+
+"Let's go, Tim!" Jen says. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+"I don't know, Jen," Tim says. "It looks scary. And we don't have permission. Maybe we should go back."
+
+Jen thinks Tim is lazy. She does not want to go back. She wants to have an adventure. She runs to the building. She opens a door. She goes in.
+
+"Jen, wait!" Tim calls. He is worried. He follows Jen. He goes in.
+
+Inside the building, it is dark and dusty. There are many things on the floor. Some are broken. Some are sharp. Jen and Tim walk around. They see a big hole in the wall. They hear a noise.
+
+"What is that?" Jen asks. She is scared.
+
+"I don't know," Tim says. He is scared too. "Maybe we should go out."
+
+But before they can go out, a big dog jumps out of the hole. It barks and growls. It has sharp teeth. It runs to Jen and Tim.
+
+"Help!" Jen and Tim scream. They run to the door. They try to open it. But it is locked. They are trapped.
+
+The dog comes closer. It is angry. It wants to bite Jen and Tim.
+
+"Please, don't hurt us!" Jen and Tim cry. They hug each other. They are sorry. They wish they did not go in.
+
+But then, they hear another noise. It is a man. He has a key. He opens the door. He sees Jen and Tim and the dog.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing here?" the man asks. He is not happy. He is the owner of the building. He is the owner of the dog.
+
+"We are sorry, sir," Jen and Tim say. "We just wanted to see the building. We did not mean to bother you or your dog."
+
+The man looks at Jen and Tim. He sees they are scared. He sees they are sorry. He is not so angry. He calls his dog. The dog stops barking. It goes to the man.
+
+"Come on, kids," the man says. "I'll take you out. But don't ever come back. This building is not safe. It is not a place to play. You could get hurt. You could get in trouble. You should listen to your friend. He was right. You should go back."
+
+Jen and Tim nod. They are glad. They thank the man. They follow him out. They see Tim's bike and Jen's scooter. They get on them. They go back.
+
+On the way, Jen says to Tim, "I'm sorry, Tim. You were right. I was wrong. I was not brave. I was foolish. I should have listened to you. You are a good friend."
+
+Tim smiles. He says to Jen, "It's okay, Jen. I'm sorry too. I was not lazy. I was careful. I should have stopped you. You are a good friend too."
+
+They hug. They are happy. They learn a lesson. They never go to the building again. They play outside. They have fun. They are safe.
+Anna liked to sing and play her toy guitar. She wanted to be a musician when she grew up. She sang songs about flowers, stars, and animals. She sang in her room, in the garden, and in the car.
+
+But her brother Ben did not like her singing. He said it was too loud and silly. He told her to stop and be quiet. He ignored her when she asked him to sing with her. He played with his cars and trucks instead.
+
+One day, Anna saw a poster on the wall. It said there was a talent show at the park. She wanted to join and show everyone her singing. She asked her mom if she could go. Her mom said yes and gave her a hug.
+
+Anna was very happy and excited. She put on her favorite dress and her toy guitar. She went to the park with her mom. There were many other children who wanted to join the talent show. Some danced, some told jokes, some did magic tricks.
+
+Anna waited for her turn. She was a little nervous, but also brave. She went on the stage and smiled. She said hello to the people and told them her name. She said she was going to sing a song about a lucky star. She started to play her toy guitar and sing.
+
+Her voice was sweet and clear. She sang with joy and confidence. The people liked her song and clapped their hands. Anna felt very happy and proud. She bowed and thanked them.
+
+She saw her mom in the crowd. Her mom was smiling and cheering. She also saw her brother Ben. He was not playing with his cars and trucks. He was watching her and listening to her. He looked surprised and impressed. He clapped his hands too.
+
+Anna ran to her mom and hugged her. Her mom said she was amazing and she loved her. Anna said she loved her too. She also went to her brother and hugged him. She asked him if he liked her song. He said yes and he was sorry for ignoring her. He said she was a good musician and he was proud of her. He asked her if he could sing with her sometime. She said yes and she was happy. She said they were both lucky stars.
+Lily liked to look at the clock on the wall. It had a big face with numbers and two hands that moved. She wanted to know what the clock was for and how it worked. She asked her mom to explain the clock to her.
+
+"Mom, what is the clock for?" Lily said.
+
+"The clock tells us the time, sweetie. The time is when we do different things, like eat, play, sleep, and so on. The clock helps us know when to do them," Mom said.
+
+"How does the clock tell us the time?" Lily said.
+
+"Well, the clock has two hands, a big one and a small one. The big one moves faster and shows the minutes. The small one moves slower and shows the hours. The hours are the numbers on the face of the clock. When the small hand points to a number, it means that hour has started. When the big hand points to 12, it means that hour has ended. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded, but she was still confused. She looked at the clock and saw that the small hand was pointing to 3 and the big hand was pointing to 9. She thought that meant it was 3:09, but Mom said it was time for lunch.
+
+"Mom, why is it time for lunch if the clock says 3:09?" Lily said.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged Lily. She realized that Lily was looking at the wrong clock. The clock on the wall was not working. It had stopped at 3:09 a long time ago. Mom had forgotten to fix it or replace it. She had another clock on her phone that showed the right time.
+
+"Oops, I'm sorry, Lily. That clock is broken. It doesn't tell us the time anymore. It always says 3:09. That's why we don't look at it. We look at this clock instead." Mom said, showing Lily her phone. The phone had a screen with numbers and a picture of a sun. It said 12:15.
+
+"This clock is different from the other clock. It doesn't have hands or a face. It has numbers and a picture. The numbers show the hours and the minutes. The picture shows if it is day or night. When the picture is a sun, it means it is day. When the picture is a moon, it means it is night. Right now, it is day and the time is 12:15. That means it is time for lunch. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded again, but she was still curious. She liked the clock on the wall better than the clock on the phone. It was bigger and prettier and had hands and a face. She wondered if she could make it work again. She asked Mom if she could try.
+
+"Mom, can I fix the clock on the wall?" Lily said.
+
+Mom laughed and kissed Lily. She was proud of Lily's interest and creativity. She decided to let Lily try to fix the clock on the wall. She gave Lily a screwdriver and some batteries and watched her work. Lily was cheerful and determined. She opened the back of the clock and replaced the old batteries with the new ones. She closed the back of the clock and hung it on the wall again. She waited for the clock to move.
+
+"Look, Mom, I fixed the clock!" Lily said, as the clock started to tick and the hands started to move. She was happy and excited. She had learned something new and done something useful.
+
+Mom hugged Lily and praised her. She was happy and proud. She had taught Lily something new and seen her grow.
+
+"You did, Lily, you did! You are so smart and clever. You fixed the clock and learned how it works. You are amazing, Lily. I love you so much," Mom said.
+
+They smiled and looked at the clock together. It was 12:20. It was time for lunch. They went to the kitchen and ate their sandwiches and fruits. They were hungry and satisfied. They had a good day. They had a good time.
+Lily loved her hair. It was long and shiny and soft. She liked to put bows in her hair. She had many bows of different colors and shapes. She had a red bow, a blue bow, a yellow bow, a pink bow, and a purple bow. She also had a special bow. It was white and sparkly and had a big diamond in the middle. It was her most expensive bow. She got it from her grandma for her birthday.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She wore her special bow in her hair. She felt very pretty and happy. She saw her friend Anna at the park. Anna had short and curly hair. She did not have any bows in her hair.
+
+"Hi, Lily!" Anna said. "I like your bow. It is very shiny."
+
+"Thank you, Anna!" Lily said. "It is my special bow. It is very expensive. My grandma gave it to me."
+
+"Wow, you are very lucky!" Anna said. "Can I touch it?"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked to share with her friends. She bent her head so Anna could reach her bow. Anna touched the bow gently. She felt the diamond. It was hard and smooth.
+
+"It is very pretty," Anna said. "But you know what? I like your hair more. It is very long and shiny and soft. I wish I had hair like yours."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt happy that Anna liked her hair. She realized that her hair was more special than her bow. She took off her bow and gave it to Anna.
+
+"Here, you can have it," Lily said. "It is a gift from me to you. You are my friend. I like you more than my bow."
+
+Anna gasped. She could not believe that Lily gave her the expensive bow. She felt very happy and grateful. She hugged Lily and thanked her.
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Anna said. "You are very kind and generous. You are my friend. I like you more than anything."
+
+They put the bow in Anna's hair. It looked very pretty. They held hands and ran to the swings. They played and laughed and had fun. They did not care about the expensive bow. They cared about each other. They were happy.
+Ben and Mia like to play in the sand. They make castles and bridges and tunnels. They have fun with their toys and buckets. One day, they see something in the water. It is big and purple and has many arms. It is an octopus!
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Ben says. "It is so great!"
+
+"Can we play with it?" Mia asks.
+
+They run to the water and wave at the octopus. The octopus waves back with one of its arms. It makes a funny sound. It is joking with them.
+
+"Hello, octopus!" Ben says. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+"Yes, I do!" the octopus says. "I like to play in the sand too!"
+
+The octopus comes out of the water and joins Ben and Mia. They make a big castle together. The octopus helps with its arms. It can make many shapes and patterns. Ben and Mia laugh and clap. They are happy.
+
+The octopus is happy too. It likes to make new friends. It jokes with Ben and Mia. It tells them stories about the sea. It shows them its tricks and skills. Ben and Mia are amazed.
+
+They play until the sun goes down. Then they say goodbye to the octopus. They hug it and thank it for the fun.
+
+"Bye, octopus!" Ben says. "You are so great!"
+
+"Bye, Ben and Mia!" the octopus says. "You are so great too!"
+
+They wave at each other and smile. They hope to see each other again. They are friends.
+Sara and Tom were eager to play with the new toy. It was a big red car that could rock back and forth. They had seen it in the store and asked their mom to buy it for them.
+
+"Can I go first?" Sara asked.
+
+"No, I want to go first!" Tom said.
+
+They both grabbed the car and pulled it in different directions. The car made a loud noise and broke in half.
+
+"Oh no!" Sara and Tom cried.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw the broken car and the sad faces of her children.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. I know you liked the car, but you have to share your toys. How about we fix the car together and then you can take turns playing with it?" Mom said.
+
+Sara and Tom nodded. They felt sorry for breaking the car and for fighting with each other. They helped Mom find some glue and tape and put the car back together. It was not as good as new, but it still worked.
+
+"Okay, now you can play with the car. But remember, you have to be gentle and fair. Sara, you can go first for one minute, and then Tom, you can go next for one minute. And so on. Okay?" Mom said.
+
+"Okay, Mom. Thank you, Mom." Sara and Tom said.
+
+They hugged Mom and then took the car to the living room. They rocked the car back and forth and pretended to drive to different places. They had fun and they did not fight anymore. They learned to share and to be kind.
+Sam was very frustrated. He wanted to eat cereal for breakfast, but his mom said no. She said he had to eat eggs and toast. Sam did not like eggs and toast. He liked cereal with milk and bananas.
+
+"Please, mom, can I have cereal?" Sam asked. He made a sad face.
+
+"No, Sam, you had cereal yesterday. You need to eat something different today. Eggs and toast are good for you. They have protein and fiber." Mom said. She put a plate in front of Sam.
+
+Sam pushed the plate away. He crossed his arms and pouted. He did not want to eat. He wanted cereal.
+
+Mom sighed. She was tired and busy. She had to get ready for work and take Sam to preschool. She did not have time to argue with Sam. She needed him to relax and cooperate.
+
+"Sam, listen to me. I know you like cereal, but you can't have it every day. You can have it tomorrow, okay? But today, you have to eat what I made for you. It's not bad, I promise. Just try a bite. If you eat your breakfast, I will give you a sticker and a hug. How does that sound?" Mom said. She smiled and touched Sam's cheek.
+
+Sam looked at his mom. He saw that she was not angry, but she was not happy either. He felt sorry for making her sad. He decided to relax and give her a chance. He picked up his fork and took a small bite of egg. It was not as bad as he thought. He took another bite, and then a bite of toast. He chewed and swallowed.
+
+"Good job, Sam! You are eating your breakfast! I'm so proud of you!" Mom said. She clapped her hands and gave Sam a sticker and a hug. "See, it wasn't so hard, was it?"
+
+Sam smiled and hugged his mom back. He felt better. He was not frustrated anymore. He was glad he made his mom happy. He finished his breakfast and drank his juice. He was ready for preschool.
+
+"Thank you, mom, for making me breakfast. I love you." Sam said.
+
+"I love you too, Sam. You are a good boy. Now, let's go to preschool. You will have fun and learn new things." Mom said. She took Sam's hand and they walked to the car.
+
+Sam was happy. He had a good breakfast, a sticker, a hug, and a mom who loved him. He wondered what cereal he would have tomorrow.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They also like to eat snacks. Tom has a big bag of chips. Mia has a small box of raisins.
+
+Tom thinks his chips are better than Mia's raisins. He says, "My snack is high value. Your snack is low value. You should give me your snack and I will give you some of my chips."
+
+Mia does not like what Tom says. She says, "No, I like my raisins. They are sweet and healthy. Your chips are salty and greasy. You should give me some of your chips and I will give you some of my raisins."
+
+Tom and Mia start to argue. They do not want to share their snacks. They do not want to try each other's snacks. They do not want to be friends anymore.
+
+A dog sees Tom and Mia. The dog is hungry. The dog likes chips and raisins. The dog runs to Tom and Mia. The dog grabs their snacks and runs away.
+
+Tom and Mia are sad. They lost their snacks. They also lost their fun. They look at each other. They say, "We are sorry. We were silly. We should have shared our snacks. We should have valued our friendship more than our snacks."
+
+Tom and Mia hug. They are friends again. They decide to go to the store and buy new snacks. They also decide to buy some snacks for the dog. They hope the dog will come back and play with them. They learned a lesson. They learned to value what they have and who they have.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with their toys and watch cartoons. But sometimes they fought over who got what. One day, their mom took them to the mall. She wanted to buy some clothes and shoes for them.
+
+At the mall, Lily saw a pretty dress with flowers. She wanted it very much. She asked her mom, "Mom, can I have this dress? Please, please, please!"
+
+Her mom looked at the price tag. It was too expensive. She said, "No, Lily, we can't afford this dress. It's too much money. You have many nice dresses at home. Let's go and find something else."
+
+Lily was very angry. She threw a tantrum. She screamed and cried and kicked. She said, "I want this dress! I want this dress! You are a bad mom! You don't love me!"
+
+Ben saw his sister acting like a baby. He felt envious. He wanted to have something too. He saw a big truck with lights and sounds. He wanted it very much. He asked his mom, "Mom, can I have this truck? Please, please, please!"
+
+His mom looked at the price tag. It was too expensive. She said, "No, Ben, we can't afford this truck. It's too much money. You have many nice trucks at home. Let's go and find something else."
+
+Ben was very angry. He threw a tantrum. He screamed and cried and kicked. He said, "I want this truck! I want this truck! You are a bad mom! You don't love me!"
+
+Their mom was very sad and tired. She said, "Lily and Ben, stop it right now. You are being very rude and selfish. You should be grateful for what you have. You are not getting anything today. We are going home. And you will be punished. You will have no TV and no dessert for a week."
+
+Lily and Ben realized they had made a big mistake. They felt sorry and ashamed. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We love you. We don't need the dress or the truck. We have enough toys. Please don't punish us."
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "I love you too, Lily and Ben. But you have to learn to behave better. You have to respect me and the money we have. You have to share and be kind. You will still be punished, but I hope you will understand why. And maybe next time, we can have a nice day at the mall."
+Sara was sad. She wanted to play with her baby brother, but he was sleeping. She tried to wake him up, but he did not open his eyes. She poked him, but he did not move. She whispered in his ear, but he did not hear.
+
+She asked her mom, "Why is baby sleeping so much? I want to play with him."
+
+Mom said, "Baby is very tired. He needs to sleep to grow big and strong. You can play with him later, when he wakes up."
+
+Sara was not happy. She wanted to play now. She looked at baby and saw a tear on his cheek. She thought he was sad too. She wiped his tear and gave him a kiss.
+
+She said, "Don't be sad, baby. I love you. I will wait for you to wake up. Then we can play and have fun."
+
+She sat next to baby and held his hand. She sang him a song and told him a story. She blinked her eyes and smiled. She hoped he would smile too. She felt a little less sad. She knew baby loved her too.
+Lily liked to dive in the pool. She wore a color swimsuit with flowers. She was not afraid of the water. She liked to splash and swim with her friends.
+
+One day, she saw a huge fish in the pool. It was blue and green and shiny. It had big eyes and a long tail. Lily was curious. She wanted to see the fish up close.
+
+She took a deep breath and dove under the water. She swam towards the fish. The fish saw her and smiled. It was friendly. It let Lily touch its scales. They felt smooth and cool.
+
+Lily and the fish played together. They chased each other and made bubbles. Lily was happy. She had a new friend. She forgot about the time.
+
+Soon, her mom called her. It was time to go home. Lily said goodbye to the fish. She gave it a hug and a kiss. The fish waved its tail and winked. Lily climbed out of the pool. She told her mom about the fish. Her mom smiled and said she was proud of her. Lily smiled too. She hoped to see the fish again.
+Lily and Tom were twins who lived on a farm with their mom and dad. They liked to play with the animals, especially the sheep. The sheep were soft and white and made funny noises.
+
+One day, the sky was gloomy and dark. It looked like it was going to rain. Lily and Tom wanted to go outside and see the sheep, but their mom said no. She said it was too cold and wet, and they might get sick. She told them to stay inside and play with their toys.
+
+Lily and Tom were sad and bored. They did not like their toys. They wanted to see the sheep. They waited until their mom was busy in the kitchen, and then they sneaked out of the house. They ran across the yard to the barn, where the sheep were.
+
+The sheep were happy to see them. They baaed and wagged their tails. Lily and Tom hugged and petted them. They did not notice that the sky was getting darker and darker, and that the wind was blowing harder and harder.
+
+Suddenly, they heard their mom yell. She had seen them from the window. She was angry and scared. She ran out of the house and towards the barn. She shouted at them to come back inside. She said they were naughty and foolish. She said they could have been hurt by the storm.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared too. They let go of the sheep and ran to their mom. They said they were sorry. They said they loved the sheep. Their mom hugged them and took them back to the house. She said she loved them too. She said they had to be careful and listen to her. She said the sheep would be fine in the barn.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and said they understood. They went inside and dried off. They looked out of the window and saw the rain start to fall. They hoped the sheep were warm and cozy. They decided to play with their toys until the storm was over. They did not want to make their mom yell again.
+Ben did not like school. He did not like to sit and listen to the teacher. He did not like to do the work. He did not like to play with the other kids. He liked to stay at home and watch TV.
+
+One day, Ben told his mom he was sick. He said his tummy hurt and his head was hot. He said he could not go to school. His mom felt his forehead and said he was fine. She said he had to go to school and learn. She said he could watch TV later.
+
+Ben was angry. He did not want to go to school. He wanted to watch TV. He said to his mom, "No, I am sick. I will rot if I go to school. School is bad. School makes me weak."
+
+His mom did not believe him. She said, "Ben, stop lying. You are not sick. You will not rot. School is good. School makes you strong. Now get ready and go to school."
+
+Ben did not listen. He ran to his room and locked the door. He turned on the TV and watched his favorite show. He smiled and said, "I am smart. I tricked mom. I do not need school. I have TV."
+
+But Ben was wrong. He was not smart. He was foolish. He did not trick mom. He only hurt himself. He did not learn anything. He only wasted time. He did not grow strong. He only grew weak. He did not have fun. He only got bored. He did not watch TV. He only watched rot.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the pool. The pool is big and blue. They swim and splash and laugh.
+
+"Look, Anna, I can swim like a fish!" Ben says. He moves his arms and legs fast.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are good at swimming!" Anna says. She claps her hands. "Can you teach me how to swim like a fish?"
+
+"Sure, Anna, I can help you. Come here and hold my hand. Then we can swim together." Ben says. He holds Anna's hand and they swim across the pool.
+
+They are happy and proud. They swim like fish.
+
+After swimming, they are hungry. They go to the picnic table. There are many yummy things to eat. There are sandwiches, cookies, juice, and strawberries.
+
+Anna and Ben love strawberries. They are red and sweet and juicy. They each take a big strawberry and bite it.
+
+"Mmm, this is so good!" Anna says. She smiles.
+
+"I agree, this is the best!" Ben says. He smiles too.
+
+They see a little bird on a branch. The bird is brown and has a yellow beak. The bird looks at them and chirps.
+
+"Hello, bird, do you want a strawberry?" Anna asks. She breaks a small piece of her strawberry and holds it out.
+
+The bird flies down and takes the piece. It eats it and chirps again.
+
+"Thank you, Anna, you are very kind!" The bird says.
+
+"You're welcome, bird, we are happy to share!" Anna says.
+
+The bird flies back to the branch. It sings a beautiful song.
+
+Anna and Ben listen and clap. They think the bird is very useful. It makes them happy with its song.
+
+They finish their strawberries and juice. They hug each other and say goodbye.
+
+They had a fun day. They swam like fish and ate strawberries and made a new friend. They can't wait to play again.
+Lily and Tom were walking with Mom to the park. They liked the park. It had swings and slides and sand. Lily saw a big billboard on the road. It had many colors and pictures. It said "Come to the zoo and see the animals!"
+
+"Mom, can we go to the zoo?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not today, sweetie. The zoo is far and we don't have enough money. Maybe another day," Mom said.
+
+Tom was sad. He wanted to see the animals too. He saw a lion and a monkey and a giraffe on the billboard. He thought they looked fun and friendly.
+
+"Can I touch the billboard, Mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, honey. The billboard is high and hard. You might fall or hurt yourself. Stay with me," Mom said.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He ran to the billboard. He climbed on a box and reached for the lion. He wanted to pet it. He did not know it was not real.
+
+The billboard was old and rusty. It had wires and nails sticking out. Tom touched the lion and felt a sharp pain. He screamed. He had cut his hand on a nail. Blood came out. It was red and wet.
+
+Mom heard Tom scream. She ran to him. She saw his hand. She was scared. She took him in her arms and looked for help. She saw a car coming. She waved her hand and shouted.
+
+"Help! Help! My son is hurt!"
+
+But the car did not stop. It was going too fast. It hit Mom and Tom. They flew in the air and landed on the ground. They did not move. They did not breathe. They were gone.
+
+Lily saw everything. She was alone. She cried. She did not understand. She wanted Mom and Tom. She wanted the zoo. She wanted to go home.
+
+The sun was shining. It was hot and dry. The billboard was still there. It had many colors and pictures. It said "Come to the zoo and see the animals!"
+Lily was a large dog who liked to play with her toys. She had a ball, a bone, a rope and a teddy bear. She always kept them in her basket, where they belonged. She did not like to share them with anyone.
+
+One day, a new dog came to live in the house next door. His name was Max, and he was very curious. He saw Lily playing with her toys in the garden, and he wanted to join her. He jumped over the fence and ran towards her.
+
+"Hi, I'm Max. Can I play with you?" he asked.
+
+Lily growled and barked. "No, you can't. These are my toys. They belong to me. Go away!"
+
+Max was sad and confused. He did not understand why Lily was so mean. He just wanted to make a friend. He decided to be patient and try again later.
+
+The next day, he saw Lily sleeping in her basket. He thought it was a good chance to borrow one of her toys. He sneaked over the fence and picked up the teddy bear. He thought it was very soft and cuddly.
+
+But Lily woke up and saw him. She was very angry. She jumped out of her basket and chased him. "Give me back my teddy bear! It belongs to me!" she shouted.
+
+Max was scared and ran away. He dropped the teddy bear and ran back to his house. He felt sorry and ashamed. He did not mean to upset Lily. He just wanted to play with her.
+
+The next day, he saw Lily sitting in the garden. She looked bored and lonely. He felt sorry for her. He decided to try one more time. He brought his own toy, a squeaky duck, and threw it over the fence. He hoped Lily would like it.
+
+Lily heard the squeak and saw the duck. She was curious and picked it up. She liked the sound and the feel of it. She looked over the fence and saw Max. He smiled and wagged his tail.
+
+"Hi, I'm Max. Can I play with you?" he asked again.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She realized that Max was not a bad dog. He was just a friendly dog. She decided to give him a chance. She smiled and wagged her tail too.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily. Yes, you can play with me. This is a nice toy. Thank you for sharing it with me." she said.
+
+Max was happy and jumped over the fence. He and Lily played with the duck and the teddy bear. They had a lot of fun. They became friends.
+
+Lily learned that sharing was good. She did not need to keep all her toys to herself. She could let Max play with them too. They belonged to both of them. She was glad that Max was patient and kind. He was a good friend.
+Tom and Mia were playing knights and dragons in the garden. Tom had a big shield and a wooden sword. Mia had a green scarf and a paper cone. Tom was the knight and Mia was the dragon.
+
+Tom said, "I will save the princess from the dragon. You can't stop me, dragon. You are mean and scary." Mia said, "I am not mean and scary. I am a nice dragon. I just want to play with the princess. She is my friend."
+
+Tom ran towards Mia with his sword. Mia tried to dodge, but Tom hit her with his shield. Mia fell down and cried. Tom said, "Ha ha, I win. You are a bad dragon. Go away." Mia said, "Ow, that hurt. You are a bad knight. You are not my friend."
+
+Mia got up and ran to the house. She saw her mom in the kitchen. She said, "Mom, Tom hit me with his shield. He is mean. He made me sad." Her mom said, "Oh, no. That is not nice. Come here, sweetie. I will make you feel better."
+
+Her mom hugged Mia and gave her a cookie. She said, "I am sorry, Mia. Tom should not hit you. He should say sorry. You are a good dragon. You are my friend." Mia said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best. You make me happy."
+
+Tom saw Mia and her mom in the kitchen. He felt angry. He said, "That is not fair. Mia is a bad dragon. She should not get a cookie. She should get a slap." He ran to the kitchen and slapped Mia on the face. Mia screamed and dropped her cookie. Her mom said, "Tom, what are you doing? That is very rude. You should not slap Mia. You should say sorry. You are a bad knight. You are not my friend."
+
+Tom said, "I don't care. I don't want to say sorry. I don't want to be your friend. I want to be a knight. I want to fight dragons." He grabbed his shield and sword and ran out of the house. He did not see the car coming. He did not hear the horn. He did not feel the brake. He only felt the pain. He did not get up. He did not play again. He was not happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But they also have a secret. They have a diary. They write and draw in it every day. They do not show it to anyone.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben are playing with their blocks. They hear a knock on the door. It is their mom. She has a tray with cookies and milk. "Look, I made you a yummy snack," she says. "Thank you, mom," Anna and Ben say. They run to the door and take the tray. They put it on their table.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Can I see what you are playing with?" Anna and Ben look at each other. They do not want mom to see their diary. They say, "We are playing with blocks, mom. See, we made a tower and a bridge." Mom nods and says, "That's very nice. Can I look at your books, too?" Anna and Ben shake their heads. They say, "No, mom. Those are our books. We do not want to share them." Mom frowns and says, "Why not? Books are for reading and learning. You should not hide them."
+
+Anna and Ben feel bad. They do not want to make mom sad. They say, "Sorry, mom. We do not hide our books. We have a special book. It is our diary. We write and draw in it every day. It is our secret. Can we show you?" Mom smiles and says, "Of course, you can. I would love to see your diary. It is very nice that you have a secret book. But you can also share it with me. I will not tell anyone." Anna and Ben hug mom and say, "Thank you, mom. We love you." They take their diary and show it to mom. Mom looks at it and says, "Wow, this is amazing. You are very smart and creative. I am very proud of you." Anna and Ben smile and say, "Thank you, mom. You are the best." They eat their cookies and milk and show mom more of their diary. They have a happy time.
+Lily and Ben like to play with their fish. They have a big tank with many fish of different colors and shapes. They feed them every day and watch them swim and hide.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben notice that one of their fish looks different. It is bigger and has a long tail and a big mouth. It is not like the other fish. It is a shark!
+
+"Ben, look at that fish!" Lily says. "It is not a fish, it is a shark! How did it change?"
+
+"I don't know, Lily," Ben says. "Maybe it ate too much or drank some magic water. Maybe it is a bad shark and wants to eat the other fish!"
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They love their fish and do not want them to get hurt. They run to their mom and tell her about the shark.
+
+"Mom, mom, we have a problem!" Lily says. "One of our fish changed into a shark! It is big and scary and might eat the other fish!"
+
+Mom looks at Lily and Ben and smiles. She knows what happened. She bought a new fish for them as a surprise, but it was not a fish, it was a shark. She thought it was a baby shark and would stay small, but she was wrong. She made a mistake.
+
+"Come with me, kids," Mom says. "I will show you something important. I have a solution for the shark."
+
+Mom takes Lily and Ben to the car and drives them to the pet store. There, she talks to the man who sold her the shark. She tells him that the shark was too big for their tank and that she wanted to return it. The man agrees and gives her a new fish instead. A real fish, not a shark. A fish that is small and cute and friendly.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They thank the man and take their new fish home. They put it in the tank with the other fish and watch them swim and play. They name their new fish Sparky, because it has shiny scales that sparkle in the light.
+
+"Mom, thank you for the new fish," Lily says. "It is much better than the shark. It is a good fish."
+
+"Yes, it is, Lily," Mom says. "And I'm sorry for the shark. I learned something important today. I learned that you should always check what kind of fish you buy, and that you should not change a fish into a shark."
+Anna likes to play with her toy phone. She pretends to call her friends and talk to them. She has a modern phone that can do many things. She can take pictures, play games and watch videos.
+
+One day, Anna wants to test her phone. She wants to see if she can call someone far away. She asks her mom, "Mom, can I call grandma on my phone?"
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Sure, Anna. You can call grandma on your phone. But you need to use the network. The network is like a big web that connects many phones. It helps your phone talk to grandma's phone."
+
+Anna nods and says, "OK, mom. How do I use the network?"
+
+Mom shows Anna how to dial grandma's number and press the green button. She says, "Now, wait for the ring. When you hear the ring, that means the network is working. Then you can say hello to grandma."
+
+Anna waits for the ring. She hears it and says, "Hello, grandma. It's me, Anna. I'm testing my phone. Do you like my phone?"
+
+Grandma hears Anna's voice and says, "Hello, Anna. I'm so happy to hear from you. I like your phone very much. It's a very modern phone. You are a smart girl."
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Thank you, grandma. I love you. Bye-bye."
+
+She presses the red button and ends the call. She is proud of her phone and her test. She hugs her mom and says, "Mom, the network is amazing. It can make my phone talk to grandma. I want to test it again."
+One day, a big lion was very hungry. He wanted to eat some meat. He saw a human walking in the grass. The human did not see the lion. The lion ran fast and jumped on the human. He bit the human and ate him.
+
+The human had a friend who was looking for him. He heard the lion roar and saw the blood. He was very upset. He cried and shouted. He wanted to help his friend, but it was too late. The lion had eaten him.
+
+The lion was full and happy. He licked his paws and his teeth. He did not care about the human or his friend. He only cared about himself. He was a bad lion. He did not know that the human's friend had a gun. He did not hear the shot. He fell down and died. The human's friend was still upset, but he was also angry. He wanted to make the lion pay for what he did. He had a bad ending too.
+Lily and Sam liked to play in the sand. They had a big bucket and a small shovel. They wanted to make a castle with the sand. They worked hard and had fun.
+
+"Look, Lily, our castle is almost done!" Sam said. He filled the bucket with sand and dumped it on top of the castle. He made a tower with the sand.
+
+"Wow, Sam, our castle is very big and pretty!" Lily said. She filled the bucket with water and poured it around the castle. She made a moat with the water.
+
+They were very proud of their castle. They decorated it with shells and stones. They made a flag with a leaf and a stick. They put the flag on the tower.
+

+Lily loved to soar in the sky with her kite. She had a red kite with a long tail that her dad gave her as a gift. She was very happy when she saw the kite fly high and fast in the wind.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her dad and her kite. She saw a big tree with many green leaves and a bird's nest. She wanted to see the nest closer, so she ran to the tree with her kite.
+
+"Lily, wait!" her dad called. "Don't go too near the tree. Your kite might get stuck in the branches."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She was curious and disobedient. She ran to the tree and threw her kite up in the air. She hoped to see the nest and the birds.
+
+But she made a big mistake. Her kite got tangled in the branches and did not soar anymore. It hung there, sad and still. Lily tried to pull it down, but it was too high and too tight. She started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, dad. I'm sorry, kite. I should have listened to you. Please help me get my kite back," she sobbed.
+
+Her dad came to her and hugged her. He was not angry, but he was sad too. He loved Lily and her kite.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. I know you are sorry. But you have to be obedient and careful next time. The tree and the birds are not your friends. They can hurt your kite and you. Let's see if we can get your kite back. Maybe we can find a ladder or a stick," he said.
+
+He looked around and saw a man with a ladder. He asked the man if he could borrow his ladder. The man was kind and agreed. He helped Lily's dad climb the ladder and reach the kite. He untangled the kite from the branches and gave it back to Lily.
+
+Lily was very grateful and happy. She hugged her dad and the man and thanked them. She promised to be obedient and careful from then on. She learned her lesson.
+
+She and her dad went back to the open field and flew the kite again. The kite soared in the sky, happy and free. Lily smiled and laughed. She loved to soar in the sky with her kite.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books and dolls, but they did not like to tidy them up. Their mom always told them to put their things away, but they did not listen. They had a secret place under the bed where they hid their mess.
+
+One day, mom said she had a surprise for them. She said they had to stand in the hall and wait for her. Tom and Lily were excited. They thought maybe mom had a new toy or a cake for them. They stood in the hall and held hands.
+
+Mom came back with a big box. She said, "This is for you, my darlings. But first, you have to show me your room. I hope it is tidy and clean." She smiled and opened the door.
+
+Tom and Lily gasped. Their room was not tidy and clean. It was messy and dirty. There were toys and books and dolls everywhere. And under the bed, they saw their secret place. It was full of spiders and bugs and dust. They had forgotten to check it for a long time.
+
+Mom saw their secret place too. She was not happy. She said, "Oh, no. What is this? How could you do this? This is not a secret place. This is a nasty place. You have been very naughty and lazy. I am very disappointed in you." She frowned and closed the door.
+
+She took the big box away. She said, "This was your surprise. It was a new bed with a nice cover and a soft pillow. But you do not deserve it. You have to sleep on the floor tonight. And tomorrow, you have to tidy up your room and your secret place. No more toys or books or dolls for you until you learn to be good." She left them alone.
+
+Tom and Lily cried. They wished they had listened to mom. They wished they had tidied up their room and their secret place. They wished they had not been naughty and lazy. They wished they had not lost their surprise. They hugged each other and said sorry. But it was too late. They had a bad ending.
+Zoe and Ben love to play outside. They like to run, jump, slide and swing. They have a lot of fun with their toys and friends. But sometimes, the sky gets dark and it rains. Then they have to go inside and wait for the sun to come back.
+
+One day, Zoe and Ben see a big box in the living room. It has a picture of a zigzag on it. They wonder what is inside. They ask their mom, but she says it is a surprise. She says they can open it tomorrow, if it does not rain. Zoe and Ben are very curious and excited. They hope it does not rain.
+
+The next day, Zoe and Ben wake up early. They look out the window and see a bright blue sky. They are very happy. They run to the living room and open the box. Inside, they find a big and expensive bike. It has two wheels, a bell, a basket and a zigzag pattern. It is the most beautiful bike they have ever seen. They hug their mom and thank her. She says it is a gift from their dad, who is away on a trip. She says he loves them very much and he will be back soon.
+
+Zoe and Ben can't wait to ride their new bike. They put on their helmets and go outside. They take turns to pedal and steer. They go fast and slow, left and right, up and down. They make a lot of noise with their bell. They fill their basket with flowers and leaves. They have a lot of fun with their bike and friends. They don't notice the clouds that are forming in the sky. They don't hear the thunder that is rumbling in the distance. They don't see the rain that is falling on the other side of the street. They are too busy enjoying their zigzag bike.

+
+One day, he goes to his friend Lily's house. Lily also has toy trains, but they are different from Sam's. They are shiny and new, and they can make real engine noises and lights. Lily shows Sam how to make them roll on the tracks and press the buttons.
+
+Sam feels envious of Lily's trains. He wishes he had trains like that. He thinks that his trains are old and boring. He does not want to play with them anymore. He wants to play with Lily's trains all the time.
+
+But Lily does not like that. She wants to share her trains with Sam, but she also wants to play with them herself. She does not like it when Sam takes her trains and does not give them back. She gets angry and tells Sam to stop.
+
+Sam and Lily start to fight over the trains. They pull and push and shout. They do not have fun anymore. They make each other sad.
+
+Then, Lily's mom comes and sees them fighting. She tells them to stop and calm down. She tells them that they should be nice to each other and share their toys. She tells them that they are both lucky to have trains, and that they can have more fun if they play together.

+Sam and Lily listen to Lily's mom. They say sorry to each other and hug. They decide to play with both their trains and mix them up. They make them roll on the tracks and make engine noises and lights. They pretend that they are going to faraway places. They have fun again. They are happy.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys in the park. One day, they see a big, modern car in the park. It has many buttons and lights. Tom and Mia want to try the car.
+
+"Can we play with the car?" Tom asks Mia.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it belongs to someone," Mia says.
+
+"Let's ask the man over there. He looks nice," Tom says.
+
+They run to the man, who is sitting on a bench. He is reading a book.
+
+"Excuse me, sir. Can we play with your car?" Tom asks.
+
+The man looks at them and smiles.
+
+"Sure, you can. But be careful. It is a very special car. It can fly and talk and do many things. You have to push the right buttons to make it work," the man says.
+
+"Wow, that sounds fun. Thank you, sir," Mia says.
+
+The man gives them a key and a remote control.
+
+"Here you go. You can use these to start and stop the car. But promise me one thing. Don't push the red button. It is very dangerous. It makes the car go very fast and loud. Do you understand?" the man says.
+
+Tom and Mia nod and say, "We promise. We won't push the red button."
+
+They take the key and the remote control and run to the car. They open the door and get inside. They see many buttons and lights on the dashboard. They push some of them and hear the car talk and make noises. They have a lot of fun.
+
+"Look, this button makes the car fly," Tom says, pushing a green button.
+
+The car lifts off the ground and flies in the air. Tom and Mia laugh and clap.
+
+"This is amazing. We are flying," Mia says.
+
+They see the park and the trees and the people from above. They feel happy and free.
+
+"Let's go higher," Tom says, pushing another button.
+
+The car goes higher and higher. They see the clouds and the birds and the sun.
+
+"This is so cool. We are in the sky," Mia says.
+
+They enjoy the view and the breeze.
+
+"Let's go faster," Tom says, pushing another button.
+
+The car goes faster and faster. They feel the wind and the thrill.
+
+"This is so exciting. We are like rockets," Mia says.
+
+They zoom across the sky and see many things.
+
+"Let's go louder," Tom says, looking for another button.
+
+He sees a red button. He remembers the man's words. He hesitates.
+
+"Maybe we shouldn't. The man said it is dangerous. He said we have to keep our promise," Mia says.
+
+But Tom is curious. He wants to try the red button. He thinks it will be fun.
+
+"It will be fine. Don't worry. Just one push. It won't hurt," Tom says.
+
+He pushes the red button.
+Lily and Ben were walking with Mom in the park. They saw many birds on the grass and in the trees. Lily liked the yellow ones and Ben liked the blue ones. Mom liked the red ones.
+
+"Look, Mom, a pigeon!" Ben said, pointing at a gray bird with a shiny neck. "Can we feed it?"
+
+Mom nodded and gave them some bread crumbs from her bag. Lily and Ben threw some crumbs to the pigeon and watched it eat. The pigeon made a funny sound and bobbed its head.
+
+"Hello, pigeon!" Lily said. "Do you like bread?"
+
+The pigeon looked at Lily and nodded. It flew closer to her and pecked at her hand. Lily giggled and stroked its feathers.
+
+"Be careful, Lily," Mom said. "The pigeon might bite you."
+
+The pigeon did not bite Lily. It liked her. It flew on her shoulder and nuzzled her ear. Lily smiled and hugged it.
+
+"Can we keep it, Mom?" Lily asked. "Please?"
+
+Mom shook her head. "No, Lily, we can't. The pigeon belongs to the park. It has a family and friends here. We have to let it go."
+
+Lily felt sad. She liked the pigeon. She wanted to play with it more. She gave it a kiss and put it down. The pigeon flew away and joined the other birds.
+
+"Bye, pigeon!" Lily said. "Thank you for being my friend!"
+
+She waved at the pigeon and hoped it would come back. Ben gave her a hug and said, "Don't be sad, Lily. Maybe we can see the pigeon again next time. Come on, let's go get some ice cream."
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her eyes. She liked ice cream. She hoped it was not spicy. She followed Ben and Mom to the ice cream truck. She saw the pigeon on a tree branch and smiled. The pigeon smiled back and winked.
+Lila was a dancer who loved to wear orange. She had an orange dress, orange shoes, and an orange ribbon in her hair. She liked to dance in the park, where she saw many flowers, birds, and people.
+
+One day, she met a boy who was playing with a toy car. He was making loud noises and driving his car on the grass. Lila said hello and asked if he wanted to dance with her. The boy said no and laughed. He said dancing was silly and boring. He said he liked to destroy things with his car.
+
+Lila felt sad and angry. She said destroying things was bad and mean. She said dancing was fun and beautiful. She said he should be nice to the flowers, the birds, and the people. The boy said he didn't care and drove his car towards Lila's dress.
+
+Lila screamed and jumped away. The boy missed her dress, but he hit a big rock. His car broke into pieces and he started to cry. Lila felt sorry for him, but she also felt glad. She said he deserved it for being rude and destructive. She said he should learn to respect and appreciate things.
+
+The boy looked at his car and then at Lila. He realized he was wrong and he felt ashamed. He said he was sorry and asked if Lila could help him fix his car. Lila smiled and nodded. She said she would help him, but he had to promise to be kind and gentle. He said he would and thanked her. They became friends and learned to play and dance together. They also learned to love orange.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big mop next to the sink. Sara had an idea.
+
+"Let's play with the mop!" she said. "We can pretend it is a magic wand."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked magic. He took the mop and waved it in the air.
+
+"Shrink, shrink, shrink!" he said. He pointed the mop at Sara.
+
+Sara felt funny. She looked down and saw that she was very small. The mop was bigger than her. She was scared.
+
+"Tom, what did you do?" she cried. "Make me big again!"
+
+Tom was surprised. He did not know the mop was really magic. He tried to wave it again.
+
+"Grow, grow, grow!" he said. He pointed the mop at Sara.
+
+But nothing happened. Sara was still small. She ran to the sink. She saw a deep hole in the drain. She thought maybe she could hide there.
+
+"Help, help!" she shouted. "There is a hole!"
+
+Tom heard her. He ran to the sink. He saw Sara near the hole. He reached out with the mop.
+
+"Grab the mop, Sara!" he said. "I will pull you up!"
+
+Sara grabbed the mop. Tom pulled her up. He hugged her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara," he said. "I did not mean to shrink you. How can we make you big again?"
+
+Sara did not know. She was sad. She wished they never played with the mop.
+
+Just then, they heard a voice.
+
+"Kids, what are you doing in the kitchen?" It was Mom. She came in and saw the mop and the kids.
+
+She saw Sara was very small. She gasped.
+
+"What happened here?" she asked. "How did Sara shrink?"
+
+Tom and Sara looked at each other. They did not know how to explain.
+
+They hoped Mom had a magic mop too.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play with boats. They made boats from paper, wood, and plastic. They took their boats to the pond and sailed them on the water. They had fun watching their boats go fast or slow, turn or spin, and splash or sink.
+
+One day, they saw a big boat at the pond. It was shiny and red, with a white sail and a blue flag. It looked very nice and new. A boy was holding a remote and making the boat move. He said his name was Max and he got the boat for his birthday.
+
+"Can we play with your boat?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, you can't. This is my boat and it's very expensive. Your boats are cheap and ugly. Go away," Max said.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad and angry. They did not like Max. They thought he was mean and rude. They went to the other side of the pond and sailed their boats. They tried to ignore Max and his boat.
+
+But then, something happened. A big wind came and blew Max's boat away. It sailed fast and far, until it reached a pass. A pass is a place where the water goes under a bridge. The pass was dark and narrow, and full of rocks and trash. Max's boat got stuck in the pass. It could not move or turn. It was trapped.
+
+Max ran to the bridge and tried to get his boat back. He pushed the buttons on the remote, but nothing worked. He shouted and cried, but no one helped. He was scared and sorry.
+
+Lily and Ben saw what happened. They felt sorry for Max, too. They decided to help him. They sailed their boats to the pass and used them to push and pull Max's boat out. They worked together and freed the boat.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Max said. He hugged his boat and smiled. He looked at Lily and Ben and said, "I'm sorry I was mean to you. Your boats are not cheap and ugly. They are cool and smart. Can we be friends and play together?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and smiled. They said, "Yes, we can. We like to play with boats and we like to make new friends."
+
+They sailed their boats together and had fun. They learned that boats are not expensive or cheap, but fun and friendly. They learned that being nice is better than being mean. They learned that sailing is more fun when you share.
+Tom is a boy who likes to play with cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He likes to name his cars and make them race on the floor. His favorite car is a big blue car that goes very fast. He calls it Zoom.
+
+One day, Tom goes to the park with his mom and his blue car. He sees a girl who is playing with a red car. Her name is Lily. Tom thinks Lily is nice and wants to play with her. He asks her if she wants to race their cars. Lily says yes and smiles.
+
+They find a good spot to race their cars on the grass. They count to three and then push their cars as hard as they can. Zoom and the red car go very fast, but Zoom is faster. Tom wins the race and cheers. Lily claps and says good job.
+
+Tom and Lily play with their cars for a long time. They take turns winning and losing. They have fun and become friends. They share their cars and name them together. They find out that they both like blue and red.
+
+When it is time to go home, Tom and Lily say goodbye and hug. They promise to play again soon. Tom gives Lily his blue car as a gift. He says he has many cars and he wants her to have Zoom. Lily is very happy and thanks him. She gives him her red car as a gift. She says it is the only car she has, but she wants him to have it. Tom is very happy and thanks her. They both have a new car and a new friend. They are both very happy.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play outside. They had a big box of toys that they shared. They were very organized and always put their toys back in the box when they were done.
+
+One day, they decided to go to the sea with their toys. They wanted to build a sandcastle and pretend it was their home. They took their shovels, buckets, and some toy animals. They walked to the sea with their box and found a nice spot on the beach.
+
+They started to dig and pile up the sand. They made a big wall and a door and some windows. They put their toy animals inside the castle and pretended they were the king and the queen.
+
+"Look at our castle, Mia!" Tom said. "It is the best castle ever!"
+
+"Yes, Tom, it is very nice!" Mia said. "But we need a flag to show that it is ours!"
+
+"Good idea, Mia!" Tom said. "I have a red scarf in the box. We can use it as a flag!"
+
+Tom ran to the box and opened it. But he did not find his red scarf. He found something else. Something cold and hard and shiny.
+
+"Mia, come here!" Tom shouted. "Look what I found in the box!"
+
+Mia ran to the box and looked inside. She saw a big block of ice with something frozen inside it. It looked like a fish, but it had a long tail and a horn on its head.
+
+"What is that, Tom?" Mia asked. "Is it a toy?"
+
+"I don't think so, Mia," Tom said. "It looks real. Maybe it is a magic fish. Maybe it can grant us a wish!"
+
+"Or maybe it is a bad fish," Mia said. "Maybe it can hurt us. Maybe we should leave it alone."
+
+Tom and Mia did not know what to do with the frozen fish. They were curious, but they were also scared. They argued about whether to keep it or throw it back to the sea. They did not notice that the sun was getting hotter and the ice was starting to melt. They did not notice that the fish was starting to move. They did not notice that the fish was not happy to be in the box. They did not notice that the fish was ready to break free.
+Tom and Lily liked to play hockey in the yard. They had two sticks and a ball. They hit the ball with the sticks and tried to score in the net. They had fun and laughed a lot.
+
+One day, a big dog came to the yard. It was black and furry and had sharp teeth. It saw the ball and wanted to play too. It ran to the ball and grabbed it with its mouth. It shook the ball and growled.
+
+Tom and Lily were frightened. They dropped their sticks and ran to the house. They shouted for their mom. "Mom, mom, there is a big dog in the yard! It took our ball and it is scary!"
+
+Mom heard them and came to the door. She saw the dog and smiled. She knew the dog. It was their neighbor's dog, Max. He was friendly and playful, but sometimes he disturbed other people's games. She called the dog by his name and asked him to drop the ball.
+
+Max heard mom and wagged his tail. He dropped the ball and came to mom. He licked her hand and wagged his tail some more. Mom petted him and told him he was a good boy, but he should not disturb Tom and Lily's hockey game.
+
+Tom and Lily came out of the house. They saw mom and Max. They were still a little frightened, but they saw that mom was not afraid. They came closer and mom introduced them to Max. She told them he was a nice dog and he just wanted to play. She asked them if they wanted to play with him too.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other and nodded. They picked up their sticks and the ball. They threw the ball for Max and he chased it. They ran after him and tried to get the ball back. They played hockey with Max and had fun and laughed a lot.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. Lily found a big worm and showed it to Ben. Ben wanted to touch it, but Lily said no.
+
+"It is mine, I found it first. Go away!" Lily said.
+
+Ben was angry. He wanted to play with the worm too. He tried to grab it from Lily, but she held it tight. Ben pinched Lily's arm hard. Lily screamed and dropped the worm.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! You are mean, Ben! You hurt me!" Lily cried.
+
+Ben picked up the worm and ran away. He saw a small shed in the corner of the garden. He opened the door and went inside. He thought he could hide there with the worm and no one would find him.
+
+But he was wrong. The shed was dark and dusty. There were spiders and cobwebs everywhere. Ben heard a loud noise behind him. He turned around and saw a big dog. The dog was angry. It barked and growled at Ben. It wanted to protect its home.
+
+Ben was scared. He dropped the worm and ran to the door. But the door was closed. He tried to open it, but it was locked. He was trapped in the shed with the dog.
+
+"Help, help, help!" Ben shouted.
+
+Lily heard Ben's voice. She was still crying, but she was also worried. She followed the sound and saw the shed. She saw the lock on the door. She remembered that her dad had a key. She ran to the house and got the key. She came back and unlocked the door.
+
+She opened the door and saw Ben. He was crying and shaking. The dog was still barking and growling. Lily grabbed Ben's hand and pulled him out of the shed. She closed the door and locked it again.
+
+"Are you okay, Ben?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He hugged Lily and said sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I was mean to you. I shouldn't have pinched you. I was scared in the shed. The dog was scary. Thank you for saving me."
+
+Lily smiled and said it was okay. She forgave Ben. She picked up the worm and gave it to Ben.
+
+"Here, you can have the worm. Let's play together. But be nice to the worm, okay?"
+
+Ben nodded. He said thank you. He was nice to the worm. He and Lily played together in the garden. They were friends again.
+Lily and Max are playing with clay. They like to create different things with their hands. Lily makes a flower, Max makes a car.
+
+"Look at my flower, Max. It is pretty and pink," Lily says.
+
+"Look at my car, Lily. It is fast and blue," Max says.
+
+They are happy with their creations. But then, Max has an idea. He wants to make something else.
+
+He takes some of Lily's clay and rolls it into a ball. He puts it on his car and says, "Now my car has a cannon. It can shoot clay balls at your flower."
+
+Lily does not like this. She likes her flower. She does not want Max to shoot it.
+
+"Stop, Max. That is not nice. That is my clay. Give it back," she says.
+
+But Max does not listen. He laughs and shoots the clay ball at Lily's flower. It hits the flower and breaks it. Lily's flower is now a powder.
+
+Lily is very sad and angry. She cries and says, "You are mean, Max. You broke my flower. I do not want to play with you."
+
+Max feels bad. He did not mean to make Lily cry. He did not think his cannon would break her flower. He says, "I am sorry, Lily. I was just playing. I did not know it would hurt your flower."
+
+He tries to fix the flower. He takes the powder and squeezes it in his hands. He tries to make it into a flower again. But it does not work. The clay is too tight. It does not stick together. It falls apart.
+
+Max does not know what to do. He wants to make Lily happy again. He thinks hard. He has an idea.
+
+He takes his car and breaks it. He takes the clay and makes it into a new flower. He makes it bigger and prettier than Lily's flower. He adds some green and yellow and purple. He gives it to Lily and says, "Here, Lily. This is for you. I made you a new flower. It is better than the old one. I hope you like it."
+
+Lily looks at the flower. She sees that it is made from Max's car. She sees that Max tried to make her happy. She smiles and says, "Thank you, Max. This is a nice flower. I like it. You are a good friend."
+
+They hug and make up. They decide to share their clay and create more things together. They are happy again.
+Tommy loved to imagine. He imagined he was a pirate, a superhero, a dinosaur. He imagined he had a big ship, a cape, a roar. He imagined he could go anywhere and do anything.
+
+One day, he imagined he was a chef. He put on his apron, his hat, his spoon. He imagined he had a big kitchen, a stove, a pot. He imagined he could cook anything and make it delicious.
+
+He went to the fridge and took out some eggs, some cheese, some ham. He went to the cupboard and took out some bread, some butter, some jam. He went to the table and took out some plates, some cups, some napkins. He imagined he was making a big breakfast for his family.
+
+He cracked the eggs, he grated the cheese, he sliced the ham. He toasted the bread, he spread the butter, he smeared the jam. He poured the juice, he filled the cups, he folded the napkins. He imagined he was making the most delicious breakfast ever.
+
+He called his family to the table. "Come and eat, come and eat!" he said. "I made you a big breakfast, I made you a big breakfast!" He was very proud of his work.
+
+His family came to the table. They saw the eggs, the cheese, the ham. They saw the bread, the butter, the jam. They saw the juice, the cups, the napkins. They saw the mess, the shells, the crumbs. They saw the smile, the apron, the spoon.
+
+They looked at Tommy. They looked at each other. They looked at the breakfast. They wondered what to do. They wondered what to say. They wondered how to eat.
+
+"Wow, Tommy, this looks...amazing!" his mom said. "You are such a creative chef!"
+
+"Thank you, mommy!" Tommy said. "I imagined I was a chef. I imagined I could cook anything and make it delicious."
+
+His dad took a bite of the egg. He made a face. He swallowed hard. He said, "Mmm, this is...delicious!"
+
+"Thank you, daddy!" Tommy said. "I imagined I was a chef. I imagined I could cook anything and make it delicious."
+
+His sister took a sip of the juice. She spat it out. She wiped her mouth. She said, "Yuck, this is...delicious!"
+
+"Thank you, sister!" Tommy said. "I imagined I was a chef. I imagined I could cook anything and make it delicious."
+
+They all ate the breakfast. They all praised Tommy. They all pretended to enjoy it. They all wondered how to clean it.
+
+Tommy was very happy. He imagined he was a chef. He imagined he had made his family happy. He imagined he had made the most delicious breakfast ever.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the park. They liked to swing on the big swings. They pushed each other and laughed.
+
+"Look, there is a new swing!" Sam said. He pointed to a swing that was made of rope and wood. It looked different from the other swings.
+
+"Let's try it!" Lily said. They ran to the new swing and took turns sitting on it.
+
+"How does it feel?" Sam asked Lily.
+
+"It feels funny. The rope has a rough texture. It tickles my legs. And the wood is hard and smooth. It makes a creaky sound when I swing." Lily said.
+
+"I like it. It feels like an adventure. Like we are swinging on a tree." Sam said.
+
+They swung higher and higher, until they heard a loud voice.
+
+"Hey, you two! Get off my swing!" It was Ben, an older boy who was angry. He had made the swing himself and did not want to share it.
+
+"But we want to play too!" Lily said.
+
+"Too bad. It's mine. Go away!" Ben said. He pushed Lily off the swing and grabbed the rope.
+
+Lily fell to the ground and started to cry. Sam was angry too. He ran to Ben and tried to pull the rope from his hands.
+
+"Stop it! You are mean!" Sam said.
+
+They fought over the swing, until a grown-up came and stopped them.
+
+"What is going on here?" The grown-up asked.
+
+They told her what happened. She looked at Ben and shook her head.
+
+"That was not nice, Ben. You should share your swing with others. It's more fun to play together. And you should not push or hurt anyone. That's dangerous and rude." She said.
+
+She looked at Lily and Sam and smiled.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily and Sam? Do you need a hug?" She asked.
+
+They nodded and hugged her. She helped Lily up and wiped her tears.
+
+"Come on, let's go to the other swings. They are big enough for everyone." She said.
+
+They followed her and left the new swing behind. Ben was still angry, but he had no one to play with. He swung alone and felt sad.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a big teddy bear, a yellow ball, and a red car. She loved her toys very much and did not want to share them with anyone.
+
+One day, her cousin Tom came to visit. Tom was a big boy who liked to play with different toys. He saw Lily's toys and wanted to play with them too. He asked Lily if he could have a turn with her teddy bear, but Lily said no. She hugged her teddy bear and said it was hers.
+
+Tom was angry and tried to take the teddy bear from Lily. They started to pull and tug on the toy, and Lily started to cry. She did not want to lose her teddy bear. Tom was stronger and pulled harder, and the teddy bear ripped in half. Lily was very sad and screamed. Tom was happy and laughed.
+
+Lily's mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the ripped teddy bear and the crying Lily and the laughing Tom. She was very mad and scolded Tom. She told him to say sorry to Lily and to give her a new teddy bear. Tom did not want to say sorry or to give a new teddy bear. He said he did not like Lily or her toys.
+
+Lily's mom took Tom to his mom and told her what he did. Tom's mom was also mad and punished Tom. She told him to go to his room and to stay there until dinner. Tom did not like his room or his dinner. He wished he had some tasty toys to play with. But he had none. He had become a lonely and mean boy.
+Lily and Tom were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Tom was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then opened her eyes. She looked around and saw many trees, flowers, swings and slides. But she did not see Tom.
+
+"Where are you, Tom?" Lily yelled. "I will find you!"
+
+Tom heard Lily's yell and smiled. He had found a good hiding spot behind a big rock. He was hidden from Lily's eyes. He did not want to be found so soon. He wanted to make the game more fun.
+
+Lily ran to the swings and looked under them. She ran to the slides and looked behind them. She ran to the flowers and looked among them. But she did not find Tom.
+
+"Tom, Tom, where are you?" Lily yelled again. "Are you here? Are you there?"
+
+Tom heard Lily's yell again and giggled. He was still hidden behind the big rock. He decided to give Lily a clue. He whispered very softly: "I am in the east."
+
+Lily heard Tom's whisper and stopped. She thought for a moment. She remembered that the east was where the sun came up in the morning. She looked at the sky and saw where the sun was. She followed the sun's direction and saw the big rock. She ran to the rock and peeked behind it.
+
+"Found you, Tom!" Lily yelled happily. "You were in the east!"
+
+Tom came out from behind the rock and hugged Lily. "You are a good seeker, Lily!" Tom yelled back. "You found me!"
+
+They laughed and smiled. They decided to play again. This time, Tom was the seeker and Lily was the hider. They had a lot of fun playing hide and seek in the park.
+Tom loves rockets. He has many rockets in his room. He likes to play with them and make them fly. He wants to be a rocket man when he grows up.
+
+One day, he sees a big rocket on TV. It is going to the moon. Tom is very excited. He asks his mom, "Can I go to the moon too?"
+
+His mom smiles and hugs him. She says, "Maybe one day, Tom. But you have to work hard and learn a lot. Being a rocket man is not easy. You have to be brave and smart."
+
+Tom nods. He says, "I will work hard, mom. I will be brave and smart. I want to see the moon and the stars."
+
+His mom kisses him and says, "I'm proud of you, Tom. You can do anything you set your mind to. But for now, it's time for bed. You need to rest and dream."
+
+Tom goes to bed with his favorite rocket. He closes his eyes and imagines he is flying to the moon. He smiles and falls asleep. He is happy. He is a rocket man.
+Tom and Lily were brother and sister. They liked to play in the park with their friends. One day, they saw a big poster on the wall. It had a picture of a sick person and some words. Tom tried to read the words, but they were too hard. He asked Lily, "What does it say?"
+
+Lily looked at the poster and said, "It says, 'Stay away from the sick. The sick can spread the bad thing to you. The bad thing makes you feel uncomfortable and hurt. The bad thing is worse for the youth. The youth are the small people like us.'"
+
+Tom was scared. He said, "I don't want to get the bad thing. How can we stay away from the sick?"
+
+Lily said, "We have to wear the mask. The mask covers our mouth and nose. The mask stops the bad thing from going in or out. We also have to wash our hands. The hands touch many things. The things can have the bad thing on them. We have to wash our hands with soap and water. Soap and water make the bad thing go away."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They put on their masks and washed their hands. They went to play in the park, but they stayed far from the other people. They did not share their toys or snacks. They waved to their friends, but they did not hug or kiss them. They hoped the bad thing would go away soon. They missed the old days when they could play and laugh without worry.
+Jen and Ben are twins. They like to play with toys. They have many toys in a big box. But they want a new toy. Mom says they can choose one toy from the store.
+
+They go to the store with Mom. They see many toys. They see cars, dolls, balls, books, and more. They do not know what to choose. They look and look.
+
+Then they see a jar. The jar has something inside. It is a cute fish. The fish is orange and white. It swims and flips. Jen and Ben like the fish. They want the fish.
+
+They ask Mom if they can have the fish. Mom says yes, but they have to share. They have to take turns to feed the fish and clean the jar. Jen and Ben agree. They choose the fish. They are happy.
+
+They take the fish home. They put the jar on a table. They name the fish Fin. They feed Fin and watch him swim. They love Fin. Fin is their new toy and friend.
+Lisa and Ben are friends. They like to play in the snow. They make a snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They also make snowballs and throw them at each other. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But then Lisa feels cold. Her hands are wet and red. She forgot to wear her gloves. She says to Ben: "I need to go home. My hands hurt. I don't have gloves."
+
+Ben feels sorry for Lisa. He likes her. He thinks she is attractive. He has an idea. He says to Lisa: "You can have my gloves. They are warm and soft. I don't need them. I have big hands."
+
+Lisa smiles. She takes Ben's gloves. They are too big for her, but they feel nice. She says to Ben: "Thank you. You are very kind. I like your gloves. They are blue, like your eyes."
+
+Ben blushes. He says to Lisa: "You are welcome. You are very sweet. I like your smile. It is bright, like the sun."
+
+They hug each other. They feel happy and warm. They decide to go to Lisa's house. They can drink hot chocolate and relax. They can also read a book or watch a movie. They are still friends. They are also something more.
+Tom was a grumpy boy. He did not like to share his toys with his sister, Lily. He always wanted to play alone in his room. One day, he took his favorite truck and ran to his room. He did not see the table in the hall. He stumbled and fell. His truck flew out of his hand and broke.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Tom cried. He held his knee and looked at his truck. It was in pieces. He was very sad and angry.
+
+Lily heard Tom's cry. She ran to the hall. She saw Tom on the floor and his truck broken. She felt sorry for him. She wanted to help him.
+
+"Tom, are you okay?" Lily asked. She knelt down next to him. She touched his knee gently. "Does it hurt?"
+
+Tom looked at Lily. He did not want her to touch him. He was still grumpy. He pushed her away. "Go away! Leave me alone! You broke my truck!" he shouted.
+
+Lily was shocked. She did not break his truck. She did not do anything wrong. She was trying to be nice. She felt hurt and angry too. She stood up and crossed her arms. "I did not break your truck. You broke it yourself. You were not careful. You were rude. I don't want to play with you!" she said.
+
+Tom and Lily glared at each other. They did not say sorry. They did not hug. They did not make up. They were both grumpy and unhappy.
+Lily and Max liked to play pirates. They had a big box that they pretended was a ship. They put a flag on it and made swords from sticks. They sailed the ship around the yard and looked for treasure.
+
+One day, they saw another ship in the grass. It was a toy boat that belonged to their neighbor, Ben. Ben was not home, so they decided to take his ship. They ran to the boat and shouted, "Ahoy, mateys! We are the pirates of the box! Give us your ship or we will make you walk the plank!"
+
+But the boat did not answer. It was just a toy. Lily and Max were confused. They looked at each other and shrugged. They grabbed the boat and put it in their box. They thought they were very lucky to find such a nice ship.
+
+But they did not know that Ben had a secret. He had a remote control that made the boat move and make noises. He had hidden it under a rock when he went inside for lunch. He saw Lily and Max take his boat from his window. He was very angry. He grabbed his remote control and ran outside.
+
+He pointed the remote at the boat and pressed a button. The boat started to beep and flash. Lily and Max were scared. They thought the boat was alive. They heard Ben's voice from behind the rock. He said, "Ha ha ha! You fell into my trap! This is not a real ship, it is a bomb! If you don't give it back, I will make it explode!"
+
+Lily and Max did not want to explode. They did not want to lose their box either. They did not know what to do. They looked at each other and cried. They said, "Please, don't hurt us! We are sorry! We surrender! We surrender!"
+Mira and Sam were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs and worms. Sometimes they found other things, like stones, shells, or seeds.
+
+One day, they found something big and red in the dirt. It looked like a ball, but it had a green top and a long tail. Mira pulled it out and showed it to Sam.
+
+"Look, Sam, what is this?" she asked.
+
+Sam looked at it and smiled. He knew what it was. He had seen it in the kitchen before.
+
+"It's a radish, Mira. It's a vegetable. You can eat it, but it's very spicy," he said.
+
+Mira was curious. She wanted to try it. She bit a small piece of the red ball and put it in her mouth. As soon as she tasted it, she made a funny face. It was hot and bitter. She did not like it at all. She spit it out and ran to the hose to drink some water.
+
+Sam saw her and started to laugh. He thought it was funny that Mira did not like the radish. He laughed so hard that he fell on the ground and rolled in the grass.
+
+Mira heard him and felt angry. She did not think it was funny. She thought he was mean. She picked up the radish and threw it at him. It hit him on the head and bounced off.
+
+Sam felt a bump on his head and stopped laughing. He looked at Mira and saw that she was mad. He felt sorry for her. He did not want to hurt her feelings. He got up and ran to her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mira. I did not mean to laugh at you. I was just surprised that you tried the radish. It's too spicy for me, too. Do you want to share a carrot instead? They are sweet and crunchy," he said.
+
+Mira looked at him and saw that he was sorry. She felt better. She did not want to be mad at him. He was her friend. She nodded and smiled.
+
+"Okay, Sam. I forgive you. Let's share a carrot. But no more radishes, please. They are yucky," she said.
+
+They hugged and went to the garden again. They found a big orange carrot and broke it in half. They ate it and enjoyed it. They were happy and forgot about the radish. They played and laughed together until it was time to go home.
+Tim and Jen are twins. They like to play in the park. They like to slide on the big slide. They go up and down, up and down. They laugh and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a big black bird on the slide. It is a raven. It has shiny feathers and a sharp beak. It makes a loud noise. "Caw, caw, caw!" The raven says.
+
+Tim and Jen are scared of the raven. They want to slide, but the raven does not move. "Go away, raven!" Tim says. "We want to slide!" Jen says. But the raven does not listen. It flaps its wings and pecks at them.
+
+Tim and Jen run away from the slide. They look for their mom. But their mom is not in the park. She is at home. She is sleepy. She forgot to pick them up. She fell asleep on the couch.
+
+Tim and Jen are alone in the park. They are cold and hungry. They are sad and scared. They cry and cry. The raven laughs and laughs. "Caw, caw, caw!" The raven says. The end.
+Sara liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She had a small spoon and a small bowl. Mom gave her some flour and some water. Sara stirred them together. She made a sticky dough.
+
+Mom said, "Good job, Sara. Now we can make some cookies." She took out a big bowl and a big spoon. She added some butter, some sugar, some eggs and some vanilla. She stirred them together. She made a smooth batter.
+
+Sara said, "Can I help, Mom?" Mom nodded and smiled. She gave Sara some chocolate chips. Sara sprinkled them on the batter. Mom mixed them in. She said, "Now we need to roll the dough and cut out some shapes."
+
+Sara and Mom went to the table. They had a rolling pin and some cookie cutters. They had a star, a heart, a flower and a bulb. Sara liked the bulb best. She said, "It looks like the old bulb on the porch. The one that makes a yellow light at night."
+
+Mom said, "You're right, Sara. It does look like the old bulb. Maybe we can make some cookies for Grandpa. He likes the old bulb too. He says it reminds him of when he was a boy." She hugged Sara and kissed her cheek. She said, "You are a very sweet and smart girl, Sara. I love you very much."
+
+Sara said, "I love you too, Mom. And I love cookies. And I love Grandpa. And I love the old bulb." She smiled and cut out some bulb cookies. She put them on a baking sheet. Mom put them in the oven. They waited for the cookies to bake. They smelled very good. Sara and Mom were very happy.
+Tim and Lily like to play in the park. They like to run and swing and slide. They also like to catch bugs with their net. They have a big net with a long handle. They can catch many bugs in their net.
+
+One day, they see a big butterfly. It has many colors on its wings. It is very pretty. They want to catch it with their net. They rush after the butterfly. They run and run and run. They do not look where they are going.
+
+They do not see the pond. The pond has water and fish and ducks. It is very peaceful. But Tim and Lily do not want to go in the pond. They want to catch the butterfly. But they are too fast. They cannot stop.
+
+They fall in the pond. They splash and scream. They drop their net. The net sinks in the water. The butterfly flies away. Tim and Lily are wet and cold and scared. They cry and cry and cry.
+
+The park keeper hears them. He comes to help them. He pulls them out of the pond. He wraps them in a towel. He takes them to their mom. Their mom is angry and worried. She scolds them and hugs them. She takes them home. They have no net and no butterfly. They have a bad day.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they see a big slide. Anna wants to try it, but Ben is scared.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's go on the slide. It looks fun!" Anna says.
+
+"No, Anna, it is too high. I don't want to move from here. You go first." Ben says.
+
+Anna smiles and runs to the slide. She climbs up the ladder and sits on the top. She looks down and sees Ben watching her.
+
+"Are you ready, Ben? I am going to slide down now. Watch me!" Anna says.
+
+She pushes herself and slides down fast. She feels the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She laughs and lands on the ground. She is happy.
+
+"Wow, Anna, you are brave! That was amazing!" Ben says.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. It was not scary at all. It was fun. Do you want to try it too?" Anna says.
+
+Ben looks at the slide again. He sees Anna smiling and waiting for him. He feels a little brave too.
+
+"Okay, Anna, I will try it. But you have to hold my hand." Ben says.
+
+Anna nods and runs to Ben. She holds his hand and they climb up the ladder together. They sit on the top and look down.
+
+"Are you ready, Ben? We are going to slide down together. You can do it!" Anna says.
+
+Ben nods and squeezes Anna's hand. He takes a deep breath and pushes himself with Anna. They slide down fast. He feels the wind in his hair and the sun on his face. He laughs and lands on the ground. He is happy.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you did it! You are brave too! That was awesome!" Anna says.
+
+"Thank you, Anna. You are right. It was not scary at all. It was fun. Can we do it again?" Ben says.
+
+Anna hugs Ben and nods. They run to the slide again. They are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they are brave.
+Tim and Sue were brother and sister. They liked to play in the yard. They had a big turkey that lived in a pen. The turkey was restless. He wanted to get out and run.
+
+One day, Tim and Sue saw the turkey push the gate open. He ran out of the pen and into the street. Tim and Sue ran after him. They yelled, "Turkey, come back! Turkey, come back!"
+
+But the turkey did not listen. He ran faster and faster. He did not see the car that was coming. The car did not see the turkey. The car hit the turkey. The turkey was hurt. He did not move.
+
+Tim and Sue cried. They loved the turkey. They were sad. The car stopped. The driver got out. He was sorry. He said, "I did not see the turkey. I am sorry. I will help you."
+
+But it was too late. The turkey was gone. Tim and Sue hugged each other. They wished they had kept the turkey in the pen. They learned a hard lesson. They never let the turkey out again.
+Tim and Sam are friends who like to play in the park. They have a bucket and a shovel to make things with sand. They see a big hill of sand near the swings. They run to the hill and start to dig and pile up the sand.
+
+"Look, I made a castle!" Tim says, showing his sand tower with a flag on top.
+
+"That's nice, but I made a car!" Sam says, pointing to his sand shape with four wheels.
+
+They both think their sand things are the best. They start to argue about who is better.
+
+"My castle is bigger than your car!" Tim says.
+
+"My car is faster than your castle!" Sam says.
+
+They get angry and push each other. They knock down their sand things and make a mess.
+
+A lady who works in the park sees them and comes over. She is not happy.
+
+"What are you doing, boys?" she asks. "Why are you fighting and ruining the sand?"
+
+Tim and Sam look down and feel sorry. They don't know what to say.
+
+The lady sighs and says, "You know, sand is a gift from nature. It is smooth and soft and you can make many things with it. But you have to be careful and respectful. You can't just test it and break it and waste it. You have to share it and enjoy it with others. Do you understand?"
+
+Tim and Sam nod and say, "Yes, we understand. We are sorry."
+
+The lady smiles and says, "That's good. Now, why don't you work together and make something nice with the sand? Maybe a castle and a car together?"
+
+Tim and Sam like the idea. They say, "Yes, let's do that!"
+
+They hug and say sorry to each other. They start to rebuild their sand things, but this time they help each other and have fun. They learn that sand is more fun when they share it and respect it. They also learn that being friends is better than being right.
+Lily liked to sail her boat in the pond. She made the boat from a big leaf and a stick. She tied a red ribbon to the stick. The ribbon was her sail. She watched the boat go with the wind.
+
+One day, she saw a duck swim near her boat. The duck was shy. It looked at the boat and the ribbon. It quacked softly. Lily smiled and said hello to the duck. She wanted to be friends.
+
+The duck came closer and touched the boat with its beak. It liked the ribbon. It pulled the ribbon and took it away. Lily was sad. She liked her ribbon. She said, "Please, duck, give me back my ribbon."
+
+The duck swam away with the ribbon. Lily ran after it. She called, "Please, duck, please!" But the duck did not stop. It went to the other side of the pond. Lily could not catch it.
+
+Then, Lily saw a surprise. The duck had made a nest with the ribbon. It had four little ducklings. They were yellow and fluffy. They played with the ribbon. They quacked happily. Lily was not sad anymore. She was happy. She said, "Wow, duck, you have a family. They are so cute. You can keep the ribbon. It is a gift."
+
+The duck looked at Lily and nodded. It quacked softly. It was not shy anymore. It was grateful. Lily smiled and said, "You are welcome, duck. Can I visit you and your ducklings sometimes?" The duck nodded again. It quacked louder. It was happy. Lily and the duck became friends. They sailed together in the pond.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found an enormous steak in the fridge. They wondered what it was and how it tasted. They decided to take it to their room and pretend it was a dinosaur.
+
+"Look, Tim, this is a big dinosaur. It has sharp teeth and a long tail. Let's make it roar!" Sam said.
+
+"OK, Sam, but be careful. Don't squeeze it too hard or it will break. And don't bite it or you will get sick." Tim said.
+
+They put the steak on the floor and made it move and roar. They had fun with their dinosaur toy. But they did not know that their mom was looking for the steak. She wanted to cook it for dinner.
+
+"Where is the steak? I put it in the fridge this morning. Who took it?" Mom asked.
+
+She looked everywhere in the kitchen, but she could not find it. Then she heard some noises from the boys' room. She went to check and saw Tim and Sam playing with the steak.
+
+"Tim! Sam! What are you doing with the steak? That is not a toy. That is food. Give it to me right now!" Mom said.
+
+Tim and Sam were surprised and scared. They did not know they did something wrong. They gave the steak to mom and said they were sorry.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We did not know it was food. We thought it was a dinosaur. It was fun to play with it." Tim said.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We did not squeeze it too hard or bite it. We just made it roar." Sam said.
+
+Mom was angry and sad. She had to throw away the steak because it was dirty and spoiled. She explained to the boys that the steak was meat from a cow and that they should not play with food. She told them to wash their hands and go to bed.
+
+"Boys, I am disappointed in you. You should not play with food. Food is for eating, not for playing. You wasted a good steak and now we have nothing for dinner. You have to go to bed without dinner and think about what you did." Mom said.
+
+Tim and Sam felt bad and said they were sorry again. They went to bed and thought about what they did. They learned their lesson and never played with food again. They also learned what a steak was and how it tasted. They liked it, but not as much as a dinosaur.
+Tom and Lily went to the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells and rocks. They also liked to watch the waves and the birds and the fish.
+
+One day, they saw a big crab on the shore. It had a red shell and big claws and eyes on stalks. Tom and Lily thought it was very attractive. They wanted to touch it and play with it.
+
+"Look, Lily, a crab!" Tom said. "Let's go and see it!"
+
+"OK, Tom, but be careful. It might pinch you!" Lily said.
+
+They ran towards the crab, but the crab did not like them. It felt scared and angry. It waved its claws and made a clicking noise. It tried to hide under a rock.
+
+"Hey, crab, don't be mean!" Tom said. "We just want to admire you. You are so pretty and shiny!"
+
+"Leave me alone!" the crab said. "You are big and loud and scary! Go away!"
+
+Tom and Lily did not understand the crab. They thought it was rude and ungrateful. They felt sad and hurt. They did not want to play with the crab anymore.
+
+They went back to their mom and dad, who were sitting on a blanket. They told them what happened.
+
+"That's too bad, Tom and Lily," their mom said. "But you have to respect the crab. It is a wild animal. It does not like to be bothered. It has its own home and its own feelings. Maybe you can admire it from a distance, but don't try to touch it or catch it."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They understood. They said they were sorry to the crab. They decided to look for other things to admire on the beach. They found a starfish, a seashell, and a feather. They had fun and learned something new. They still thought the crab was attractive, but they left it alone.
+Lily and Ben were playing with blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and castles and bridges. But Ben was clumsy and sometimes he knocked down Lily's blocks by accident.
+
+"Ben, stop it!" Lily said. "You are ruining my castle!"
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I didn't mean to. I just wanted to help."
+
+Lily was angry. She did not believe Ben. She thought he was lying. She wanted to know the truth.
+
+"Ben, are you telling the truth?" she asked. "Or are you just being mean?"
+
+Ben looked at Lily. He felt sad. He did not like to make Lily angry. He wanted to be her friend.
+
+"I'm telling the truth, Lily," he said. "I'm not being mean. I'm just clumsy. I don't know how to play with blocks very well."
+
+Lily looked at Ben. She saw his sad face. She felt sorry for him. She remembered that he was her friend.
+
+"OK, Ben," she said. "I believe you. I'm sorry for being mad. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Ben smiled. He was happy. He nodded his head.
+
+"Yes, Lily," he said. "I want to play with you. Can you teach me how to play with blocks better?"
+
+Lily nodded her head. She took Ben's hand and showed him how to stack the blocks carefully. They played together and had fun. They forgot about their fight. They were friends again.
+Lily liked to go to class. She liked to learn new things and play with her friends. But today, she was sad. She forgot to bring her soft bear. Her soft bear was her best friend. She always hugged him when she was scared or sleepy.
+
+"Miss, can I go home and get my soft bear?" Lily asked her teacher.
+
+"No, Lily, you have to stay in class. You can't go home now. It's too far and too late. Maybe you can share a toy with someone else," the teacher said.
+
+Lily looked around. She saw many toys, but none of them looked like her soft bear. She saw cars, blocks, dolls, and balls. She did not want to play with them. She wanted her soft bear.
+
+She saw Ben. Ben had a soft bunny. It was white and fluffy. It had long ears and a pink nose. Lily thought it looked nice.
+
+"Ben, can I please play with your soft bunny?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben looked at Lily. He saw that she was sad. He liked Lily. She was his friend. He wanted to make her happy.
+
+"Okay, Lily, you can play with my soft bunny. But you have to be gentle. He is very soft and fragile. And you have to give him back when class is over," Ben said.
+
+Lily smiled. She said thank you to Ben. She took the soft bunny and hugged him. She felt better. She played with Ben and the soft bunny. She forgot about her soft bear for a while. She had fun in class.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play outside in the snow. They put on their warm coats, hats, gloves and boots. They say bye to Mom and go to the backyard.
+
+They see a big hill of snow. They want to slide down the hill. They find a big piece of cardboard. They put it on the snow. They sit on the cardboard. They hold hands. They are ready to go.
+
+"Are you scared, Lily?" Ben asks.
+
+"No, I am not scared. Are you scared, Ben?" Lily answers.
+
+"No, I am not scared. Let's go!" Ben says.
+
+They push the cardboard with their feet. They start to slide down the hill. They go very fast. They feel the wind on their faces. They laugh and scream.
+
+But then they see something. The snow is not white anymore. It is green. It is not soft anymore. It is hard. It is icy. It is grass. The cardboard slides on the grass. It does not stop.
+
+"Uh-oh!" Ben and Lily say.
+
+They slide off the hill. They fall on the ground. They are not hurt. But they are wet and cold. They look at each other. They are covered in green and icy grass.
+
+They start to giggle. They think it is funny. They get up and brush off the grass. They run back to the hill. They want to slide again. They are not scared. They are brave. They are happy.
+Lily liked to go to the park with her mom. She liked to see the flowers, the swings, and the ducks. But her favorite thing was the big birdcage. It had many birds of different colors and sounds. She liked to watch them fly and sing.
+
+One day, when she went to the park, she saw a weird bird in the birdcage. It was big and black and had a long beak. It did not fly or sing. It just sat on a branch and looked at Lily. Lily felt scared and curious.
+
+"Mom, what is that bird?" she asked.
+
+"That is a crow, Lily. It is not a pet bird. It is a wild bird. It must have flown into the birdcage by mistake. Maybe it is looking for food or a friend," her mom said.
+
+"Can we help it, mom? Can we open the birdcage and let it out?" Lily asked.
+
+Her mom shook her head. "No, Lily. We cannot do that. The birdcage is locked and we do not have the key. And the crow might be scared of us or bite us. We have to leave it alone and hope it finds its way out soon."
+
+Lily felt sad for the crow. She wished it could fly and sing like the other birds. She hoped it would not be lonely. She said goodbye to the crow and the other birds and left the park with her mom. She hoped the next time she went to the park, the crow would be gone.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and has a long tail. The dog runs to them and barks.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Tom says. He is not afraid of dogs. He likes to pet them.
+
+"Tom, be careful!" Lily says. She is afraid of dogs. She thinks they are scary and loud.
+
+Tom nods. He knows Lily is scared. He holds her hand. He says, "Don't worry, Lily. The dog is normal. He just wants to say hello. He is not bad."
+
+Tom and Lily look at the dog. The dog wags his tail. He licks Tom's hand. He sniffs Lily's hand. He is friendly. He does not bite.
+
+Lily smiles. She feels better. She says, "You are right, Tom. The dog is normal. He is nice. Can I pet him?"
+
+Tom nods. He says, "Yes, you can. He likes it."
+
+Tom and Lily pet the dog. The dog is happy. He barks again. He likes Tom and Lily. They are his new friends. They play in the park. They have fun.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to pretend they are spies. They have a toy pistol and a map. They are very organized. They know where to hide and where to look for clues.
+
+One day, they see a man with a big bag. He looks angry and sneaky. Lily and Ben think he is a bad guy. They want to stop him. They follow him to a bench. He puts the bag under the bench and walks away.
+
+Lily and Ben run to the bench. They look inside the bag. They see a lot of money and a real pistol. They are scared. They know the pistol is not a toy. They know the money is not his. They know they have to tell someone.
+
+They see a police officer walking by. They wave to him. They show him the bag. They tell him what they saw. The police officer is surprised and happy. He says they are very brave and smart. He says they helped catch a robber. He gives them a badge and a hug.
+
+Lily and Ben are proud and happy. They are the best spies in the park. They know they did a good thing. They know they are friends. They know they have fun.
+Tom and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with cars and balls. But they did not like to share. They always fought over their toys. One day, they had a big fight. They yelled and pushed and hit each other.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see. She was very upset. She said, "Stop fighting right now! You are embarrassing me and our nation. We are guests in this country. We have to be nice and polite. How can you be so rude and mean?"
+
+Tom and Sam did not listen. They kept fighting. They did not care about Mom or the nation. They only cared about their toys. Mom was very angry. She took away their toys and said, "You are not getting them back until you say sorry and hug each other."
+
+Tom and Sam did not want to say sorry or hug. They were too proud and stubborn. They crossed their arms and turned away. They did not talk to each other or to Mom. They stayed in their room and sulked.
+
+Mom was very sad. She wanted her boys to be happy and friendly. She wanted them to respect her and the nation. She wanted them to learn and grow. But they did not. They wasted their time and their chance. They made a bad ending for themselves and for Mom.
+Lily liked to number the pigeons in the park. She would point at them and say, "One, two, three, four..." She wanted to know how many pigeons there were. She thought they were pretty and funny.
+
+One day, she saw a big, strong pigeon with a shiny ring on its leg. It was the leader of the pigeons. Lily wanted to number it, too. She ran after it and said, "Five, five, five!" But the strong pigeon did not like that. It flew away and made a loud noise.
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to be friends with the strong pigeon. She asked her mom, "Why does the strong pigeon not like me?" Her mom said, "Maybe it is scared of you. You are bigger than it. Maybe you can be gentle and quiet and give it some bread. Then it might come to you."
+
+Lily liked that idea. She took some bread from her mom and tore it into small pieces. She sat on a bench and waited for the strong pigeon. She did not run or shout. She just smiled and said softly, "Hello, strong pigeon. Do you want some bread?"
+
+The strong pigeon saw the bread and smelled it. It was hungry and curious. It flew closer and closer to Lily. It saw her smile and heard her voice. It was not scared of her anymore. It landed on the bench and ate some bread. Lily was happy. She said, "You are my friend, strong pigeon. You are number five." The strong pigeon nodded and cooed. It liked Lily, too. They had fun together.
+Lily and Max were bored. They had no toys to play with. They looked around the kitchen for something fun. They saw a big tub of yogurt in the fridge.
+
+"Let's play with the yogurt!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Max agreed.
+
+They took the tub of yogurt and opened it. They dipped their fingers in it and made squishy sounds. They laughed and smeared the yogurt on their faces and hair. They threw yogurt at each other and at the walls.
+
+"Look, we are making art!" Lily said.
+
+"No, we are making a mess!" Max said.
+
+They did not hear their mom coming. She opened the door and saw the yogurt everywhere. She gasped and dropped her bags.
+
+"What have you done?" she asked.
+
+"We were bored. We played with the yogurt. We destroyed it." Lily and Max said.
+
+"You destroyed the yogurt and the kitchen! You are in big trouble!" mom said.
+
+She was very angry. She made them clean up the mess. She gave them no dessert. She sent them to bed early.
+
+Lily and Max were sorry. They learned their lesson. They never played with yogurt again.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big palace with many windows and doors. They wanted to go inside and see what was there.
+
+"Can we go, please?" Lila asked her mom.
+
+"OK, but be careful and stay together," her mom said.
+
+Lila and Ben ran to the palace. They opened a door and saw a big hall with many paintings and statues. They saw a staircase that went up and up.
+
+"Let's go up and see more," Ben said.
+
+They climbed the stairs and saw more rooms and things. They saw a room with a big bed and a crown. They saw a room with a piano and a violin. They saw a room with a telescope and a globe.
+
+"Wow, this is so cool," Lila said.
+
+They came to the last room. It had a balcony and a flag. They went to the balcony and looked outside. They saw the park and the people and the birds.
+
+"Look, there's mom," Ben said.
+
+He waved to her. He leaned over the railing to wave more. But the railing was loose and it broke. Ben fell down and down.
+
+"Ben, no!" Lila screamed.
+
+She grabbed his hand and tried to pull him up. But she was too small and he was too heavy. She fell down and down with him.
+
+"Help, help!" they shouted.
+
+Their mom heard them and saw them. She was scared and ran to them. She called for help. Some people came and helped her. They got a big net and caught Lila and Ben. They were safe.
+
+"Are you OK?" their mom asked.
+
+They nodded. They were scared and hurt, but they were alive.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," Ben said.
+
+"I'm sorry, too," Lila said.
+
+They hugged their mom. She hugged them back.
+
+"It's OK, I'm glad you're OK," she said.
+
+She took them to the doctor. The doctor checked them and gave them some bandages and some candy. They said thank you.
+
+They went home. They did not want to play in the park anymore. They did not want to see the palace anymore. They thought it was weird and dangerous. They wanted to stay home and play with their toys and books. They learned a lesson. They were happy.
+Tommy was miserable. He did not like to go to the store with his mom. The store was big and loud and boring. He wanted to stay home and play with his toys. He wanted to make his own world with his blocks and cars and animals.
+
+"Mom, can we go home now?" he asked. He was holding his mom's hand and dragging his feet.
+
+"Not yet, Tommy. We need to buy some food and clothes and other things. It won't take long, I promise." his mom said. She smiled and tried to make him happy. She gave him a cookie from her bag.
+
+Tommy ate the cookie, but he was still miserable. He saw other kids in the store. They were crying or running or making noise. He did not like them. He wished he had a friend who liked to play like him.
+
+Then he saw something that made him curious. It was a big box with a hole in it. It had a sign that said "World of Fun". He wondered what was inside. He let go of his mom's hand and walked to the box.
+
+"Tommy, where are you going?" his mom called. She did not see him.
+
+Tommy did not answer. He crawled into the hole. He was surprised by what he saw. It was a world of fun! There were colorful lights and sounds and toys. There were slides and swings and tunnels. There were other kids who smiled and laughed and played. Tommy felt happy. He wanted to join them.
+
+He ran to a slide and climbed up. He slid down and giggled. He saw a boy who looked like him. He had brown hair and blue eyes and a red shirt.
+
+"Hi, I'm Tommy. Do you want to play with me?" he asked.
+
+"Hi, I'm Danny. Sure, I want to play with you. You look like a nice friend." the boy said.
+
+They smiled and hugged. They played together for a long time. They had fun. They forgot about the store and the world outside. They were not miserable anymore. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big wall. The wall is red and blue and yellow. It has many pictures on it.
+
+"Wow, look at the wall!" Lily says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Let's go and see it!" Ben says. They run to the wall. They see flowers and animals and stars on the wall.
+
+"Who made the wall?" Lily asks. "It is so nice!"
+
+"Maybe someone who likes to paint," Ben says. "Maybe they are healthy and happy."
+
+They hear a voice behind the wall. It says, "Hello, who are you?"
+
+Lily and Ben are surprised. They look behind the wall. They see a girl. She has a paintbrush and a bucket. She is smiling.
+
+"Hi, we are Lily and Ben," Lily says. "We like your wall. It is so pretty!"
+
+"Thank you, I am Anna," the girl says. "I like to paint. It makes me healthy and happy."
+
+"Do you want to paint with me?" Anna asks. "I have more paint and brushes. We can make the wall more pretty!"
+
+"Yes, we want to paint with you!" Lily and Ben say. They are happy. They meet a new friend. They paint the wall together. They have fun.
+Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to play with their toys and make funny noises. One day, they had a meeting with their teacher and the other kids. They had to show what they learned in class.
+
+Lily was very excited. She had a big picture of a flower that she colored with crayons. She wanted to attach it to the wall with tape. She asked Max to help her.
+
+"Max, can you give me some tape?" she said.
+
+"Sure, Lily. Here you go." Max said. He handed her a roll of tape.
+
+Lily took the tape and tried to attach her picture to the wall. But she used too much tape and it got stuck to her hair. She pulled and pulled, but it only made it worse. She started to cry.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts!" she said.
+
+Max tried to help her, but he also got some tape on his fingers. He got scared and cried too.
+
+"Oh no, oh no, oh no!" he said.
+
+The teacher and the other kids heard them and came to see what was wrong. They saw Lily and Max with tape all over their hair and fingers. They looked very funny. Some of the kids laughed. Some of the kids said "aww".
+
+The teacher was very kind. She helped Lily and Max to get rid of the tape. She said it was okay to make mistakes. She said they could try again later.
+
+Lily and Max felt very embarrassed. They said sorry to the teacher and the other kids. They hugged each other and said they were still best friends. They learned a new word: attach. They also learned to use less tape next time.
+Lily likes to play with her dolls. She has many dolls with different clothes and hair. She likes to match their clothes and hair to make them look pretty. She has a big box with many clothes and hair clips for her dolls.
+
+One day, she wants to play with her doll Anna. Anna has blue eyes and blonde hair. Lily looks for a blue dress and a yellow hair clip for Anna. She opens the box and dumps all the clothes and hair clips on the floor. She makes a big mess.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what Lily is doing. She sees the clothes and hair clips everywhere. She is not happy. She says, "Lily, what are you doing? You made a big mess. You have to clean up your toys."
+
+Lily says, "But Mom, I am playing with Anna. I want to match her eyes and hair. She is my favorite doll."
+
+Mom says, "I know, Lily, but you can't make so much noise and mess. You have to be careful with your toys. Why don't you pick one dress and one hair clip for Anna, and put the rest back in the box?"
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She likes all the clothes and hair clips, but she loves Anna more. She says, "OK, Mom, I will do that. I will pick a blue dress and a yellow hair clip for Anna, and put the rest back in the box. Then can I play with Anna?"
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Yes, Lily, you can play with Anna. But first, you have to clean up your mess. And next time, please don't make so much noise and mess, OK?"
+
+Lily nods and says, "OK, Mom, I will do that. Thank you, Mom."
+
+Lily picks a blue dress and a yellow hair clip for Anna. She matches her eyes and hair. She thinks Anna looks very pretty. She puts the rest of the clothes and hair clips back in the box. She cleans up her mess. Then she plays with Anna. She is happy. Mom is happy too.
+Ben and Lily are playing in the garden. They have a big box and some sticks. They pretend the box is a castle and the sticks are swords. They take turns to be the king or the queen and the knight or the dragon.
+
+"Roar! I am the dragon! I will burn your castle!" Lily says, holding a stick in her mouth. She runs around the box, making loud noises.
+
+"No, you won't! I am the knight! I will stop you with my sword!" Ben says, holding a stick in his hand. He chases Lily and tries to touch her with his stick.
+
+They run and laugh and have fun. Then they hear a splash. They look and see their dog, Max, jumping into the pond. He is wet and happy. He shakes his fur and sprays water everywhere.
+
+"Max, you are so silly! You are not a fish!" Ben says, laughing.
+
+"Maybe he is joking with us. Maybe he wants to play too!" Lily says, smiling.
+
+They run to the pond and join Max. They splash and play and get wet. They joke and giggle and have fun. They forget about the castle and the swords. They are happy.
+Tom and Amy were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and look for shiny things. Sometimes they found rocks, sometimes they found shells, sometimes they found coins.
+
+"Look, Amy, I found a mineral!" Tom said, holding up a blue stone. "It is very pretty and smooth. Do you want to see?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Amy said, running over to Tom. She took the stone and looked at it closely. "Wow, it is very pretty and smooth. Where did you find it?"
+
+"I found it in this hole," Tom said, pointing to the ground. "Maybe there are more minerals in there. Do you want to help me dig?"
+
+"Okay!" Amy said, giving the stone back to Tom. They both lay on the ground and used their hands and spoons to dig deeper.
+
+They dug and dug until they saw something shiny at the bottom of the hole. It was a metal box with a lock on it.
+
+"What is that?" Amy asked, curious.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said, excited. "Maybe it has more minerals inside. Or maybe it has toys or candy. Let's open it!"
+
+They tried to pull the box out of the hole, but it was too heavy. They tried to break the lock, but it was too hard. They tried to shake the box, but it did not make any sound.
+
+They were about to give up when they heard a voice behind them.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing?" It was Mr. Brown, the gardener. He saw the hole and the box and frowned. "That's my box. I buried it here a long time ago. It has some old tools and papers in it. Nothing for you to play with."
+
+"Sorry, Mr. Brown," Tom and Amy said, feeling guilty. "We were looking for minerals. We did not know it was your box."
+
+"It's okay, kids, but you should not dig holes in the garden. You might hurt the plants or the worms. And you should not touch other people's things. You might break them or lose them. Do you understand?"
+
+"Yes, Mr. Brown," Tom and Amy said, nodding.
+
+"Good. Now, why don't you fill up the hole and come with me? I have some real minerals for you to see. I collected them from different places. They are very pretty and smooth. Do you want to see?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Amy said, smiling. They quickly filled up the hole and followed Mr. Brown to his shed. He showed them his minerals and told them their names and colors. They were very happy and learned a lot.
+
+They thanked Mr. Brown and went back to their house. They told their mom and dad about their adventure and showed them their new minerals. They decided to keep them in a special box and not dig any more holes in the garden. They had enough minerals for now.
+Tom and Lily are best friends. They like to play together and share their toys. One day, they go to the mall with their moms. They see a big store with many books and games. They want to go inside and look.
+
+"Can we go, Mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, but stay close to me and Lily's mom, okay?" Tom's mom says.
+
+Tom and Lily nod and run to the store. They see many things they like. Tom sees a big puzzle with cars and trucks. Lily sees a pretty doll with a dress and a hat. They show each other what they like.
+
+"Look, Tom, this doll is so nice. She has blue eyes like me," Lily says.
+
+"Wow, Lily, this puzzle is so cool. It has many pieces and colors," Tom says.
+
+They are happy and want to buy what they like. But they don't have any money. They look at their moms. Their moms are talking and smiling. They don't see Tom and Lily.
+
+Tom has an idea. He whispers to Lily.
+
+"Lily, let's take what we like and hide them in our bags. Then we can go home and play with them. No one will know," Tom says.
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She likes the doll, but she knows it is wrong to take things without paying. She remembers what her mom told her.
+
+"Lily, you have to be honest and loyal. You don't take things that are not yours. You don't lie to your friends. You don't hurt anyone. That's how you show you are a good person," her mom said.
+
+Lily shakes her head.
+
+"No, Tom, we can't do that. That's stealing. That's bad. We have to put them back and say sorry. Maybe our moms will buy them for us later. Or maybe we can save our money and buy them ourselves. But we can't take them now. That's not loyal," Lily says.
+
+Tom feels ashamed. He knows Lily is right. He doesn't want to be bad. He doesn't want to lose his best friend. He puts the puzzle back and says sorry.
+
+"You're right, Lily. I'm sorry. I was silly. Let's put them back and be loyal. Thank you for being my friend," Tom says.
+
+Lily smiles and hugs Tom. She puts the doll back and says sorry.
+
+"I'm glad you're my friend, Tom. You're loyal too. Let's go find our moms and tell them we love them," Lily says.
+
+They hold hands and run to their moms. Their moms are happy to see them. They hug them and kiss them. They are proud of them. They are loyal.
+Tom and Mia love to sing. They sing all the time, at home, at school, and in the park. They sing loud and soft, high and low, happy and sad. They sing songs they know and songs they make up.
+
+One day, they see a big poster with a picture of a lady and a man. They are wearing fancy clothes and holding hands. The poster says "Opera". Tom and Mia do not know what opera is, but they think it looks fun.
+
+They ask their mom if they can go to see the opera. Their mom says yes, but they have to be quiet and listen. She says opera is a kind of singing that tells a story. She says some people love opera and some people do not.
+
+They go to the opera with their mom. They sit in a big room with many seats and a big stage. They see the lady and the man from the poster. They start to sing. They sing very fast and very loud. They sing in a language that Tom and Mia do not understand. They sing with other people who wear fancy clothes too. They sing with music that comes from a big hole under the stage.
+
+Tom and Mia try to listen, but they do not like the opera. They think it is too fast and too loud and too long. They get bored and tired. They want to sing their own songs. They whisper to their mom.
+
+"Mom, can we go home?" Tom asks.
+
+"Mom, can we sing?" Mia asks.
+
+Their mom smiles and says, "Shh, not now. We have to be polite. The opera is almost over. Then we can go home and sing."
+
+Tom and Mia nod and wait. They do not love the opera, but they love their mom. And they love to sing.
+Lila and Tom were playing with their toy cars on the sand. They liked to make tracks and race each other. They had different kinds of cars: some were old and some were modern.
+
+"Look at my car, it is so fast and shiny!" Tom said, showing off his modern car. "It can go forward and reverse and has cool lights and sounds."
+
+"My car is old, but I like it," Lila said, holding her car. "It is red and has a big trunk and a horn. It can also go forward and reverse, but it does not make noises."
+
+Tom laughed. "Your car is boring and slow. My car is better and can beat yours any time. Let's race to the shore and see who wins."
+
+Lila agreed. They lined up their cars and counted to three. Then they pushed their cars as hard as they could. Tom's car zoomed ahead, leaving Lila's car behind. Tom smiled and looked back at Lila.
+
+"Ha ha, I told you my car is faster. You will never catch up with me. I am going to win!"
+
+But as he was looking back, he did not see a big rock in front of his car. His car hit the rock and flipped over. It landed upside down and stopped. Tom gasped and ran to his car. He tried to flip it over, but it was stuck. He pushed the buttons, but it did not make any sound or move.
+
+"Oh no, my car is broken!" Tom cried. "What am I going to do?"
+
+Lila saw what happened and felt sorry for Tom. She ran to him and offered her car.
+
+"Here, you can play with my car. It is old, but it still works. Maybe we can fix your car later."
+
+Tom looked at Lila and her car. He felt ashamed and grateful. He took her car and thanked her.
+
+"Thank you, Lila. You are very kind. I am sorry I was mean to you. Your car is not boring or slow. It is nice and fun. Can we be friends?"
+
+Lila smiled and nodded. They hugged and played with their cars together. They learned that it does not matter if a car is old or modern, as long as it is working and shared. They also learned that being nice is better than being rude. They had a happy day on the sand.
+Sam likes to jog with his dad. They jog in the park, where there are many trees and flowers. Sam wears a red cap to keep the sun away from his eyes. His dad wears a blue cap that matches his shirt.
+
+One day, they see a big sign in the park. It says there is a race for kids and dads. Sam wants to join the race. He asks his dad if they can. His dad says yes, and they sign up. They get a number to put on their caps.
+
+The race starts, and Sam and his dad jog as fast as they can. They pass many other kids and dads. Sam feels happy and strong. He holds his dad's hand and smiles. His dad smiles back and says he is proud of him.
+
+They reach the finish line, and a lady gives them a medal. It is shiny and has a star on it. Sam and his dad hug and thank the lady. They are very happy and proud. They jog back to their car, wearing their medals and their caps. They had a lot of fun.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. They had a map and a shovel and a big box.
+
+"Arrr, matey, we found the treasure!" Ben said, opening the box. Inside, there were many shiny things: rings, necklaces, coins, and a crown.
+
+"Wow, it's so pretty!" Lila said, picking up the crown. "I want to be the pirate queen!"
+
+"No, I want to be the pirate king!" Ben said, grabbing the crown. "It's mine!"
+
+They started to pull and tug on the crown, each trying to get it for themselves. They did not see the old man who was watching them from a bench. He had a dirty coat and a long beard. He looked angry.
+
+"Hey, you kids, stop that!" he shouted. "That's my treasure! I buried it here a long time ago!"
+
+Lila and Ben were scared. They dropped the crown and ran away. They did not want to fight with the old man.
+
+"Please, don't hurt us!" Lila said.
+
+"Yeah, we're sorry, we didn't know!" Ben said.
+
+They surrendered the treasure to the old man and ran back to their mom. They told her what happened and she hugged them.
+
+"It's okay, sweeties, you're safe now," she said. "But next time, don't touch things that don't belong to you. And don't play with dirty things, they might have germs."
+
+Lila and Ben nodded. They learned their lesson. They decided to play something else. Maybe they could be astronauts or firefighters or doctors. But not pirates. Pirates were too scary.
+Anna and Ben like to play with paper. They can fold the paper and make different shapes. Anna can fold a paper boat. Ben can fold a paper plane. They are very good at folding paper.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race with their paper shapes. They go to the park and find a big hill. Anna puts her paper boat on the grass and Ben throws his paper plane in the air. They want to see whose paper shape can go the farthest. They are very competitive.
+
+The paper boat slides down the hill very fast. The paper plane flies high in the sky. Anna and Ben run after their paper shapes. They cheer and laugh. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, something happens. The paper plane catches a gust of wind and flies away. Ben cannot see his paper plane anymore. He feels sad. He stops running and looks around. He does not know where his paper plane is.
+
+Anna sees that Ben is sad. She stops running too. She looks at her paper boat. It is still on the grass. She picks it up and runs to Ben. She gives him her paper boat. She says, "Here, you can have my paper boat. I don't need it. I have you."
+
+Ben smiles and hugs Anna. He says, "Thank you, Anna. You are very kind. I don't need my paper plane. I have you."
+
+They hold the paper boat together and look at the sky. They see a bright light. It is the sun. It makes them feel warm and happy. They are friends.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big gray animal with a long nose. It was an elephant. The elephant was eating some leaves from a tree.
+
+"Look, mom, look!" Anna said. "The elephant has a trunk!"
+
+"Yes, it does," mom said. "The trunk helps the elephant breathe, smell, drink and grab things."
+
+"Can I touch the trunk, mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"Maybe, but you have to be careful and polite," mom said. "Let's ask the zookeeper first."
+
+They walked to the zookeeper, who was wearing a green hat and a blue shirt. He smiled at them and said hello.
+
+"Hello, zookeeper," mom said. "We are very curious about the elephant. Can we touch its trunk?"
+
+"Sure, you can," the zookeeper said. "But you have to follow some rules. First, you have to stay on this side of the fence. Second, you have to wait for the elephant to come to you. Third, you have to be gentle and quiet. And fourth, you have to say thank you to the elephant when you are done. Do you understand?"
+
+"Yes, we do," Anna and Ben said.
+
+They waited for the elephant to come to them. The elephant was very smart and friendly. It walked slowly to the fence and lowered its trunk. Anna and Ben reached out their hands and touched the trunk. It felt dry and rough, but also warm and soft.
+
+"Wow, the trunk is amazing!" Anna said.
+
+"It is, it is!" Ben said.
+
+They stroked the trunk and felt the elephant breathe. The elephant made a low sound, like a purr. It seemed to like them.
+
+"Thank you, elephant, thank you!" Anna and Ben said.
+
+The elephant lifted its trunk and sprayed some water on them. They laughed and squealed. They were wet, but they didn't mind. They had fun.
+
+"Thank you, zookeeper, thank you!" mom said.
+
+"You're welcome," the zookeeper said. "I'm glad you enjoyed meeting the elephant. It's a very special animal."
+
+They waved goodbye to the elephant and the zookeeper. They walked to the car, still smiling and talking about the trunk. They had a wonderful day at the park.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a long notebook on a bench. It has many pictures and words on it.
+
+"Look, Anna, a notebook!" Tom says. He runs to the bench and picks it up.
+
+"Who does it belong to?" Anna asks. She follows Tom and looks at the notebook.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe someone left it here by mistake. Can we keep it?" Tom says. He likes the notebook. It has drawings of animals and cars and stars.
+
+"No, Tom, we can't keep it. It is not ours. Maybe someone is looking for it. We should give it back." Anna says. She is a good girl. She knows it is wrong to take things that are not theirs.
+
+"But it is so nice. And no one is here. Maybe they don't want it anymore." Tom says. He does not want to give it back. He wants to keep it and look at it more.
+
+"Tom, that is not nice. How would you feel if someone took your toy or your book? You would be sad, right?" Anna says. She tries to make Tom understand.
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He remembers how he felt when he lost his ball. He was very sad. He does not want to make someone else sad.
+
+"You are right, Anna. I would be sad. We should give it back. Maybe we can find the owner. Or we can leave it on the bench with a note." Tom says. He puts the notebook back on the bench.
+
+"Good, Tom. I am proud of you. You are a good friend. Maybe we can draw our own notebook later. We can use crayons and paper." Anna says. She smiles at Tom.
+
+"Okay, Anna. That sounds fun. Let's go and play some more." Tom says. He smiles back at Anna.
+
+They hold hands and run to the slide. They are happy. They are good friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were brave hunters. They had sticks that they used as spears. They threw them at the trees and the bushes.
+
+"Look, I got a big bird!" Tom said, pointing at a branch.
+
+"That's not a bird, that's a leaf!" Lily said, laughing.
+
+Tom felt angry. He did not like it when Lily made fun of him. He threw his spear at her. It missed her and hit a dog.
+
+The dog barked and ran towards Tom. It looked angry too. Tom was scared. He ran away from the dog.
+
+Lily saw what happened. She felt sorry for Tom. She picked up his spear and ran after him.
+
+"Tom, wait!" she called. "I'm sorry I laughed at you. Here, take your spear back. I want to be your friend."
+
+Tom stopped and looked at Lily. He saw that she was smiling. He felt less angry. He accepted his spear from her.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," he said. "I'm sorry I threw it at you. You are a good friend."
+
+They hugged and went back to playing. The dog followed them. It was not angry anymore. It wanted to play too. They all had fun in the park.
+Tom is a driver. He drives a big bus. He likes to help people. He says hello to everyone who gets on his bus. He knows their names.
+
+One day, Tom sees a new girl on his bus. She is very small and shy. She does not say hello. She does not have a name tag. Tom wonders what her name is. He smiles at her and says, "Welcome to my bus. I am Tom. What is your name?"
+
+The girl does not answer. She looks down at her feet. She holds a teddy bear. Tom thinks she is sad. He wants to make her happy. He says, "That is a nice teddy bear. Does he have a name?"
+
+The girl looks up at Tom. She nods. She says, "His name is Sam. He is my best friend. He helps me when I am scared."
+
+Tom says, "That is wonderful. Sam is a good name. He is a helpful teddy bear. I am glad you have him. Do you want to sit next to me? I can show you the sights. We can have fun."
+
+The girl smiles. She says, "Yes, please. Thank you, Tom. You are a helpful driver. My name is Lily. I am new here. I am going to a new school. I am nervous."
+
+Tom says, "Don't worry, Lily. I will take you to your school. I will be here when you finish. You will make new friends. You will like your school. You are brave and smart. Sam and I are proud of you."
+
+Lily hugs Sam. She says, "Thank you, Tom. You are very kind. You make me happy. You are my new friend."
+
+Tom and Lily sit together. They talk and laugh. They see the trees, the houses, the shops, and the park. They have fun. Tom is a helpful driver. Lily is a happy girl. Sam is a good teddy bear. They are all friends.
+One day, Lily and her mom went to the park. Lily liked to play on the swings and slide. Mom liked to sit on the bench and read a book. The park was peaceful and sunny.
+
+Lily saw a squirrel on a tree. The squirrel had a big nut in its mouth. It looked happy and busy. Lily wanted to say hello to the squirrel. She ran to the tree and called out, "Hi, squirrel! What are you doing?"
+
+The squirrel was scared of Lily. It dropped the nut and ran away. It hid behind a branch and covered its eyes. It did not want to talk to Lily. It wanted to keep its nut.
+
+Lily felt sad. She did not mean to scare the squirrel. She just wanted to be friends. She picked up the nut and said, "Sorry, squirrel. I did not want to take your nut. Here, you can have it back."
+
+She put the nut on the ground near the tree. She walked back to the bench and sat with her mom. She told her mom what happened. Mom hugged her and said, "That was very kind of you, Lily. Sometimes, squirrels are shy and need some space. Maybe next time, the squirrel will be more friendly."

+Lily smiled and nodded. She hoped the squirrel would come back and share its nut with her. She looked at the tree and saw the squirrel peeking out. The squirrel saw the nut and came down. It picked up the nut and gave Lily a wink. Lily waved and said, "Bye, squirrel! See you soon!" The squirrel nodded and ran back to the tree. It was happy and grateful. Lily and the squirrel both felt peaceful and warm.
+Lily was a girl who liked to look at books. She had many books with pictures of animals, flowers, and people. She liked to make up stories about them in her head. One day, she found a new book in her room. It was a gift from her grandma. It was a book about a prince.
+
+The prince was very good. He helped people who were sad or hurt. He was brave and kind. He had a big horse and a shiny sword. Lily wanted to meet him. She opened the book and looked at the first page. There was a picture of the prince and a castle. Lily said, "Hello, prince. You are very good. Can I be your friend?"
+
+The prince heard her voice. He looked at her and smiled. He said, "Hello, Lily. You are very sweet. Of course you can be my friend. Do you want to come with me to the castle?" Lily nodded. She was very happy. She said, "Yes, please. I want to see your castle and your horse and your sword. Can I ride your horse with you?"
+
+The prince said, "Sure. Come on, Lily. Let's go." He reached out his hand and pulled her into the book. Lily felt a magic wind around her. She closed her eyes and opened them again. She was in the castle with the prince. He took her to his horse and helped her climb on. He said, "Hold on tight, Lily. We are going to have a lot of fun." He rode his horse with Lily around the castle and the fields. They saw many beautiful things and met many friendly people. Lily laughed and clapped her hands. She said, "This is the best day ever. Thank you, prince. You are my best friend."
+
+The prince said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are my best friend too. I'm glad you came with me. You make me very happy." He hugged her and kissed her cheek. Lily felt warm and cozy. She said, "I love you, prince. You are very good." The prince said, "I love you too, Lily. You are very sweet." They smiled and looked at each other. They were very happy. The end.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the woods. One day, they found a hut. It was old and small. It had a door and a window.
+
+"Let's go inside," Lily said. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+Tom was not sure. He looked at the hut. It was dark and dirty. He heard a noise. It was a growl.
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked. He was scared.
+
+Lily shrugged. She was brave. She opened the door. She saw a big dog. It was angry. It barked and ran at them.
+
+"Run!" Lily shouted. She and Tom ran away from the hut. The dog chased them. It was fast and noisy.
+
+They ran and ran until they reached a fork. There were two paths. One went left and one went right.
+
+"Which way?" Lily asked. She was out of breath.
+
+Tom looked at the paths. He had to choose. He remembered something. His dad had told him that the right path led to the lake. The lake had water and fish. Maybe the dog would stop there.
+
+"Right!" Tom said. He and Lily turned right. They hoped the dog would not follow them.
+
+They ran and ran until they saw the lake. It was blue and shiny. They saw some ducks and frogs. They also saw a boat. It was tied to a tree.
+
+"Look!" Lily said. She pointed at the boat. "Maybe we can hide there."
+
+Tom nodded. He and Lily ran to the boat. They climbed inside. They ducked down. They waited.
+
+They heard the dog. It had followed them. It reached the lake. It saw the boat. It jumped in the water. It swam to the boat. It tried to climb inside.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They looked for something to stop the dog. They saw a paddle. It was long and wooden.
+
+"Grab it!" Tom said. He gave the paddle to Lily. She held it tight.
+
+She waited for the right moment. She saw the dog's head. It was wet and angry. It opened its mouth. It showed its teeth.
+
+Lily swung the paddle. She hit the dog. It yelped and fell back. It swam away. It did not come back.
+
+Lily and Tom cheered. They had escaped the dog. They were safe. They hugged each other.
+
+They looked at the lake. It was calm and quiet. They saw the ducks and frogs. They smiled.
+
+They decided to stay in the boat. They played and talked. They had fun.
+
+They forgot about the hut. They did not want to go back there. They had chosen the right path. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are playing with their dog, Spot, in the park. They throw a ball and Spot runs to get it. They laugh and clap when Spot brings the ball back. They love Spot very much.
+
+"Good boy, Spot!" Sara says. "You are so fast and smart!"
+
+"Thank you, Spot!" Ben says. "You are so fun and cute!"
+
+They throw the ball again and again. Spot is happy and wags his tail. He likes to play with Sara and Ben.
+
+But then, something bad happens. A big car comes on the road. It is very loud and fast. Spot does not see the car. He runs after the ball and crosses the road.
+
+"Spot, no!" Sara and Ben shout. They are scared and sad.
+
+The car hits Spot. Spot makes a loud noise and falls down. He does not move. He is hurt. He is wet with blood.
+
+Sara and Ben run to Spot. They cry and hug him. They try to wake him up. They want him to be okay.
+
+"Please, Spot, please!" Sara says. "We love you, Spot!"
+
+"Please, Spot, please!" Ben says. "We thank you, Spot!"
+
+But Spot does not open his eyes. He does not wag his tail. He does not breathe. He is gone.
+
+Sara and Ben are very sad. They have lost their friend. They wish they could play with him again. They wish they could say sorry to him. They wish they could heal him. But they can't.
+Tim and Lily were twins who liked to play in the attic. There were many old things in the attic, like books, toys, and clothes. But there was also a big chest that was locked. Tim and Lily always wondered what was inside the chest, but they were too fearful to open it.
+
+One day, they found a key under a pile of books. It looked like the key to the chest. Tim and Lily looked at each other and smiled. They decided to open the chest and see what was inside. They ran to the chest and put the key in the lock. They turned the key and heard a click. They lifted the lid and saw many colorful things.
+
+They saw paints, brushes, glitter, stickers, and paper. They were very happy and excited. They took out the paints and brushes and started to mix the colors. They made purple, green, orange, and brown. They painted on the paper and made pictures of animals, flowers, and stars. They used the glitter and stickers to make the pictures more shiny and pretty.
+
+They were having so much fun that they did not hear their mom calling them for lunch. They did not notice that they had made a big mess in the attic. They had spilled paint on the floor, the walls, and the chest. They had left glitter and stickers everywhere. They had forgotten to close the lid of the chest.
+
+Their mom came to the attic and saw the mess. She was very angry and sad. She said to Tim and Lily, "What have you done? You have ruined the chest and the attic. The chest was very old and special. It belonged to your grandma. She gave it to me before she died. She wanted me to keep it safe and clean. She loved to paint and make pictures. She wanted you to see her pictures and learn from her. But you have destroyed her chest and her pictures. You have been very naughty and disrespectful."
+
+Tim and Lily felt very sorry and ashamed. They did not know that the chest was their grandma's. They did not know that she had painted and made pictures. They did not mean to ruin the chest and the attic. They said to their mom, "We are very sorry, mom. We did not know. We were just curious and wanted to see what was inside the chest. We liked the paints and the brushes. We wanted to make pictures like grandma. We did not want to make you angry and sad. Please forgive us."
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "I forgive you, Tim and Lily. I know you did not know. I know you liked the paints and the brushes. I know you wanted to make pictures like grandma. But you should have asked me first. You should have been careful and respectful. You should have cleaned up after yourselves. You should have closed the lid of the chest. You should have listened to me when I called you for lunch. You should have learned from your grandma. She was very kind and gentle. She always asked before she used something. She always took care of her things. She always cleaned up after herself. She always listened to her mom. She always learned from her mistakes. She was a very good and wise person. You should be like her."
+
+Tim and Lily nodded and said, "We will, mom. We will be like grandma. We will ask before we use something. We will take care of our things. We will clean up after ourselves. We will listen to you. We will learn from our mistakes. We will be good and wise. We love you, mom. We love grandma."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "I love you, too, Tim and Lily. I love grandma, too. Come, let's go and have lunch. Then we will come back and clean the attic. And maybe, if you are good and wise, I will show you some of grandma's pictures and tell you some of her stories. How does that sound?"
+
+Tim and Lily smiled and said, "That sounds great, mom. Thank you, mom. Thank you, grandma."
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: The story teaches the value of curiosity, creativity, respect, responsibility, forgiveness, and learning.
+Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big ship that could float on water. They liked to pretend they were pirates and sail the ship in the bathtub.
+
+One day, they decided to play with the ship in the pool. They put on their hats and eye patches and took the ship outside. They were very proud of their ship and how it looked. They said, "Ahoy, mateys! We are the best pirates in the world!"
+
+But when they got to the pool, they saw another boy playing with his own ship. His ship was smaller and older than theirs, but he seemed happy. He said, "Hello, I'm Tom. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Ben and Sam looked at each other and shook their heads. They thought their ship was better than his and they did not want to share. They said, "No, thank you. We don't play with small and old ships. Go away!"
+
+Tom felt sad and hurt. He said, "But why? We can have more fun together. Your ship is very nice, but mine is too. Please, let's be friends."
+
+Ben and Sam did not listen. They pushed Tom away and put their ship in the pool. They said, "This is our pool and our ship. You can't play here. Go find another pool!"
+
+Tom did not want to fight. He picked up his ship and walked away. He said, "Okay, fine. I'll go. But you are not nice pirates. You are mean and selfish pirates. You don't know how to share and be kind."
+
+Ben and Sam did not care. They laughed and played with their ship. They said, "We don't need him. We have the best ship and the best pool. We are the best pirates in the world!"
+
+But soon, they heard a loud noise. They looked up and saw a big storm coming. The wind was strong and the rain was heavy. The storm made the pool water splash and swirl. Ben and Sam were scared. They said, "Oh no! The storm is coming! We have to save our ship!"
+
+They tried to reach for their ship, but it was too late. The storm was stronger than their ship. The ship tipped over and sank to the bottom of the pool. Ben and Sam cried. They said, "Our ship! Our ship is gone! We lost our ship!"
+
+They ran inside the house and told their mom what happened. Their mom hugged them and said, "I'm sorry, boys. I know you loved your ship. But you know what? You also lost something else. You lost a chance to make a new friend. You were not nice to Tom. You did not share and be kind. You were mean and selfish. You hurt his feelings and made him sad. That was not right. That was not what pirates do."
+
+Ben and Sam felt ashamed. They said, "You're right, mom. We were not nice pirates. We were mean and selfish pirates. We hurt Tom's feelings and made him sad. We're sorry, mom. We're sorry, Tom."
+
+Their mom said, "It's okay, boys. You can learn from your mistake. You can say sorry to Tom and ask him to play with you. You can share and be kind. You can be nice pirates. You can be proud pirates."
+
+Ben and Sam nodded. They said, "Yes, mom. We can do that. We can say sorry to Tom and ask him to play with us. We can share and be kind. We can be nice pirates. We can be proud pirates."
+
+The next day, they went to the pool and saw Tom playing with his ship. They walked up to him and said, "Hi, Tom. We're sorry for what we did yesterday. We were mean and selfish. We don't want to be like that. We want to be your friends. Can we play with you?"
+
+Tom smiled and said, "Sure, you can play with me. I forgive you. You can play with my ship and I can play with yours. We can have more fun together. We can be nice pirates. We can be proud pirates."
+
+Ben and Sam smiled and said, "Thank you, Tom. You're very nice. You're very kind. You're a good pirate. You're a proud pirate."
+
+They played with their ships and had a lot of fun. They learned to share and be kind. They learned to be nice pirates. They learned to be proud pirates.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big house with a fence and a sign that said "Keep out". They were curious and wanted to see what was inside.
+
+They climbed over the fence and walked to the door. It was dark and dusty. They pushed the door and it opened with a loud creak. They stepped inside and saw a lot of old things and cobwebs.
+
+"Wow, this is spooky!" Tim said.
+
+"Maybe there are ghosts here!" Kim said.
+
+They walked around and looked at the things. They saw a piano, a sofa, a mirror, and a clock. They also saw a door that said "Do not enter".
+
+They wanted to know what was behind the door. They opened it and saw a staircase that went down to the basement. They decided to go down and see what was there.
+
+They walked down the stairs and saw a lot of boxes and cans. They also saw a bad smell. It was smelly and made them want to sneeze.
+
+"Yuck, what is that smell?" Tim said.
+
+"I don't know, but I don't like it!" Kim said.
+
+They heard a noise behind them. It was a loud bang. They turned around and saw a ghost. It was white and had no legs. It had two big eyes and a mouth. It looked angry and scary.
+
+"Boo!" the ghost said.
+
+Tim and Kim screamed and ran back up the stairs. They stumbled and fell on the steps. They got up and ran to the door. They opened it and ran out of the house. They climbed over the fence and ran to the park.
+
+They were scared and out of breath. They hugged each other and said:
+
+"Let's never go to that house again!"
+
+"That was the worst adventure ever!"
+
+They learned their lesson and never went near the house again. They played in the park and had fun with their friends. They forgot about the ghost and the smelly basement. They were happy and safe.
+Tom and Lily were hungry. They wanted to eat pizza for dinner. Mom said she would make pizza for them. She put cheese and sauce and spicy peppers on the dough. Then she put the pizza in the oven.
+
+Tom and Lily waited for the pizza. They smelled the cheese and the sauce and the spicy peppers. They heard the oven beep. Mom opened the oven and took out the pizza. The pizza was hot and bubbly. It looked yummy.
+
+"Can we eat the pizza now, Mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. The pizza is too hot. We have to wait for it to cool down a bit. See how it is rising? That means it is still very hot," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They watched the pizza rise. They saw the cheese and the sauce and the spicy peppers move up and down. They were curious.
+
+"Mom, why does the pizza rise?" Lily asked.
+
+"Because of the air, honey. The air in the dough gets hot in the oven and makes the dough puff up. The air in the cheese and the sauce and the spicy peppers also gets hot and makes them bubble. That's why the pizza rises," Mom explained.
+
+Tom and Lily learned something new. They thought the pizza was amazing. They waited for the pizza to cool down. Then they ate the pizza with Mom. They liked the cheese and the sauce. They did not like the spicy peppers. They made their mouths burn. They drank water and milk to make the burn go away. They thanked Mom for the pizza. They were happy and full.
+Tommy liked to climb. He climbed on chairs, on tables, on sofas, on beds. He climbed everywhere he could. He thought it was fun and exciting. But his mom did not like it. She said it was dangerous and messy. She told him to stop climbing and play with his toys.
+
+One day, Tommy saw a big pot of spaghetti on the stove. It smelled good and looked yummy. He wanted to taste it. He climbed on a chair and reached for the pot. But the pot was hot and heavy. It slipped from his hand and fell on the floor. The spaghetti and the sauce splashed everywhere. Tommy screamed and cried. He was hurt and scared.
+
+His mom heard the noise and ran to the kitchen. She saw the mess and Tommy on the floor. She was angry and worried. She picked him up and checked his burns. She said, "Tommy, what have you done? You are in big trouble. You could have been seriously injured. You disobeyed me and made a huge mess. You are not allowed to climb anymore. You are going to your room and staying there until dinner. No TV, no games, no snacks. Do you understand?"
+
+Tommy nodded and sobbed. He was sorry and ashamed. He wished he had listened to his mom. He did not like to climb anymore. He did not like spaghetti either. He had a bad day.
+Tom and Mia were playing in the living room. They had a big box of toys and they liked to make up stories with them. Tom had a toy car and Mia had a doll.
+
+"Let's pretend we are going to a party," Mia said. "We need to dress up and bring a gift."
+
+"Okay," Tom said. "I will wear my hat and you can wear your necklace. What gift should we bring?"
+
+Mia looked around and saw a candle on the table. It was red and smelled nice. She took it and put it in a bag.
+
+"Let's bring this candle," she said. "It is pretty and it makes light."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked candles too. He thought they were magic. He followed Mia to the other side of the room, where they had a blanket and some pillows.
+
+"This is the party," Mia said. "We have to knock on the door and say hello to the host."
+
+She knocked on the blanket and pretended to open it.
+
+"Hello, we are here for the party," she said in a high voice.
+
+"Hello, welcome to my party," Tom said in a low voice. "Thank you for coming. What did you bring me?"
+
+He took the bag from Mia and opened it. He saw the candle and smiled.
+
+"Wow, a candle," he said. "I love candles. Thank you so much."
+
+He put the candle on the pillow and reached for a match.
+
+"Wait, Tom," Mia said. "You can't light the candle. It is dangerous. You will burn yourself or the blanket."
+
+Tom ignored her. He was curious and wanted to see the candle glow. He was ignorant of the danger. He struck the match and touched it to the candle.
+
+The candle lit up and made a small flame. Tom was happy. He watched the flame dance and flicker.
+
+"Look, Mia, look," he said. "The candle is so beautiful. It is like a star."
+
+Mia was scared. She saw the flame grow bigger and hotter. She smelled smoke. She knew they had to put out the candle.
+
+"Tom, stop, stop," she said. "The candle is bad. It is making fire. We have to blow it out."
+
+She tried to blow out the candle, but it was too far. She stretched her neck and her arms, but she could not reach it.
+
+"Help me, Tom, help me," she said. "The fire will hurt us. We have to tell mom and dad."
+
+Tom realized he had made a mistake. He was sorry and afraid. He dropped the match and ran to the door.
+
+"Mom, dad, help," he shouted. "We have a fire. We need water. We are sorry."
+
+Mom and dad heard Tom and came to the living room. They saw the fire and the smoke. They were angry and worried. They grabbed a bucket of water and threw it on the fire. They put out the fire and the candle.
+
+They looked at Tom and Mia. They were dirty and scared. They hugged them and checked them for injuries.
+
+"Are you okay?" mom asked. "Are you hurt?"
+
+"No, mom, we are okay," Mia said. "We are sorry. We were playing with the candle. We didn't know it was dangerous."
+
+"Why did you play with the candle?" dad asked. "You know you are not supposed to touch matches or candles. They are not toys. They are for adults only. They can cause fire and burn you or the house."
+
+"We are sorry, dad," Tom said. "We were ignorant. We wanted to see the candle light up. We thought it was pretty. We didn't mean to make fire."
+
+Mom and dad sighed. They were glad Tom and Mia were safe, but they were also disappointed and upset. They took them to the bathroom and cleaned them up. They gave them a lecture and a time-out. They told them to never play with fire again.
+
+Tom and Mia learned their lesson. They felt ashamed and sorry. They apologized to mom and dad. They promised to never touch candles or matches again. They realized they were ignorant and they needed to listen and learn. They hoped mom and dad would forgive them and love them. They hugged mom and dad and said they loved them too.
+Lily and Tom were twins. They liked to play in the park with their ball. One day, they saw a big slide. They wanted to try it.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Tom said. He ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. Lily followed him.
+
+When they reached the top, they saw a seat. It was red and shiny. It had a belt and a handle. It looked like a car.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom said. He sat on the seat and buckled the belt. He pulled the handle. The seat moved. It went down the slide very fast.
+
+"Tom, wait for me!" Lily said. She tried to sit on the seat too, but it was too late. The seat was gone. She was sad.
+
+She noticed a sign next to the slide. It said: "For one person only. Do not share the seat. It is dangerous."
+
+Lily felt foolish. She did not read the sign. She did not listen to the man who worked at the park. He told them to be careful.
+
+She waited for Tom at the bottom of the slide. She hoped he was okay. She wanted to say sorry. She learned a lesson. She would not share the seat again.
+Sara and Ben were twins who loved chocolate. They always wanted to eat chocolate, but their mom said no. She said chocolate was not good for them and they had to eat healthy food first.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben saw a big box of chocolate on the table. It was a gift from their aunt, who was visiting them. Sara and Ben were very happy and wanted to open the box. But their mom was not there. She was in the bathroom.
+
+"Let's eat some chocolate," Sara said. "Mom won't know."
+
+"No, we can't," Ben said. "Mom will be angry. She said we have to wait."
+
+"Mom won't be angry," Sara said. "She loves us. And we love chocolate. Come on, it's just one piece."
+
+Sara opened the box and took a piece of chocolate. She put it in her mouth and smiled. It was very yummy. She gave another piece to Ben. Ben looked at the chocolate and then at Sara. He wanted to eat it, but he was scared.
+
+"Are you sure?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, I'm sure," Sara said. "It's fine. Don't be a baby."
+
+Ben took the chocolate and ate it. It was also very yummy. He felt happy. Sara and Ben ate more and more chocolate. They did not stop. They did not hear their mom coming out of the bathroom.
+
+Their mom saw them eating chocolate. She was very angry. She recognized the box. It was not a gift from their aunt. It was her medicine. It was not chocolate. It was something very bad for them.
+
+"Sara! Ben! What are you doing?" their mom shouted. "That's not chocolate! That's poison!"
+
+Sara and Ben felt sick. They dropped the chocolate and looked at their mom. They were scared. They did not understand.
+
+"Mom, we're sorry," Sara said. "We thought it was chocolate."
+
+Their mom ran to them and hugged them. She was very sad. She called the doctor. She hoped it was not too late.
+
+But it was too late. Sara and Ben died. They ate too much poison. They did not listen to their mom. They did not wait. They did not know. They made a big mistake.
+Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play pretend. They had a big box of costumes and toys that they used to make up stories. One day, they decided to play court. Ben put on a black robe and a wig and said he was the judge. Mia put on a pink dress and a hat and said she was the princess.
+
+The judge and the princess sat on two chairs in front of a table. They had a book, a hammer, and a crown on the table. The judge opened the book and said, "We are here to decide if the princess is good or bad. She has done many things that make people unhappy. She is very dull and never smiles or plays with anyone. She only cares about her crown and her dress. What do you have to say, princess?"
+
+The princess looked at the judge and said, "That is not true. I am not dull. I am very smart and kind. I smile and play with my friends all the time. I care about my crown and my dress because they are beautiful and make me happy. You are the one who is dull and mean. You only care about your book and your hammer. You never have fun or listen to anyone. You are a bad judge."
+
+The judge and the princess started to argue. They raised their voices and said mean things to each other. They did not notice that their mom was watching them from the door. She was not happy with their game. She thought they were being rude and silly. She decided to teach them a lesson.
+
+She walked into the room and said, "Stop! This is not how you play court. You are not being fair or respectful. You are both in trouble. You have to give up your costumes and toys and go to your room. No more playing pretend for today."
+
+The judge and the princess were shocked and sad. They did not want to lose their costumes and toys. They did not want to go to their room. They realized they had made a mistake. They said sorry to each other and to their mom. They hugged and promised to play nicer next time. They hoped their mom would change her mind and let them play again. But they knew they had to wait and see.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But today it is raining. They cannot go outside. They are sad.
+
+They look at the window. They see the rain and the clouds. They hope the sun will come soon. They want to go to the park and swing and slide.
+
+"Look, Ben, a bird!" Sara says. She points at the window. A small bird is on the tree. It is wet and cold. It sings a song.
+
+"Hello, bird!" Ben says. He waves at the window. The bird sees them. It sings louder.
+
+"Can we feed the bird?" Sara asks. She runs to the kitchen. She finds some bread. She breaks it into pieces.
+
+"Good idea, Sara!" Ben says. He follows her. They take the bread and go back to the window. They open it a little. They throw some bread to the bird.
+
+The bird is happy. It eats the bread. It sings louder and louder. It thanks Sara and Ben.
+
+Sara and Ben are happy too. They smile and clap. They forget the rain. They hope the bird will come again. They make a new friend.
+Tom and Lily were hungry. They wanted to eat dinner. But Mom was busy. She had to work on her computer. She said, "Sorry, kids. Dinner will be delayed. I need to finish this report."
+
+Tom and Lily were sad. They did not like to wait. They liked to eat potato. Potato was their favorite food. They asked Mom, "How long do we have to wait? Can we have a snack?"
+
+Mom looked at them. She smiled. She said, "You are very patient, kids. I am almost done. Why don't you go to the kitchen and see if there is something you can nibble on?"
+
+Tom and Lily ran to the kitchen. They opened the fridge. They saw a bowl of potato salad. It looked yummy. They took two spoons. They were about to eat some.
+
+But then they heard a knock on the door. It was their neighbor, Mrs. Lee. She had a big basket. She said, "Hello, Tom and Lily. I made some cookies for you. They are still warm. Do you want some?"
+
+Tom and Lily were happy. They loved cookies. They said, "Yes, please. Thank you, Mrs. Lee. You are very generous."
+
+They took some cookies from the basket. They smelled good. They tasted good. They thanked Mrs. Lee again.
+
+They remembered the potato salad. They thought, "Maybe we can share some with Mrs. Lee. She gave us cookies. We can give her potato."
+
+They asked Mrs. Lee, "Do you like potato salad? We have some in the fridge. Do you want some?"
+
+Mrs. Lee smiled. She said, "I do like potato salad. But I have already eaten dinner. Thank you for your offer. You are very kind, kids."
+
+She said goodbye to Tom and Lily. She left with her basket.
+
+Tom and Lily put the potato salad back in the fridge. They ate some more cookies. They were not hungry anymore.
+
+They heard Mom call them. She said, "Dinner is ready, kids. Come and eat."
+
+They ran to the dining room. They saw Mom had made potato soup. It looked yummy. They said, "Yay, potato soup. We love potato soup."
+
+They hugged Mom. They said, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best."
+
+They sat down and ate their dinner. They were happy. They had a good day.
+Lily and Max are playing in the park. They see a big slide and want to go on it. But the slide is too high for them. They need to climb some steps to reach the top.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Max says. He runs to the steps and tries to climb. But he is too small. He cannot reach the next step with his foot. He falls down and hurts his toe.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Max cries. He holds his toe and makes a sad face.
+
+Lily runs to him and hugs him. She says, "Are you OK, Max? I'm sorry you hurt your toe."
+
+Max nods and smiles. He says, "It's OK, Lily. It's not a big hurt. But I can't go on the slide. It's too high for me."
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She has an idea. She says, "I know! We can ask Mommy to help us. She can lift us up to the slide. Then we can slide down together. That will be fun!"
+
+Max likes Lily's idea. He says, "Yes, let's do that! Come on, Lily. Let's find Mommy."
+
+They run to their mommy, who is sitting on a bench. She is reading a book and is very alert. She sees Lily and Max coming and smiles.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, can you help us?" Lily and Max say. They tell her about the slide and their problem.
+
+"Of course, I can help you," Mommy says. She puts down her book and stands up. She takes Lily and Max by their hands and walks to the slide. She lifts them up to the top and helps them sit on the slide.
+
+"Are you ready, Lily and Max?" Mommy asks.
+
+"Yes, we are ready, Mommy!" Lily and Max say.
+
+"OK, then. One, two, three, go!" Mommy says.
+
+Lily and Max slide down the slide. They feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their skin. They laugh and scream with joy. They reach the bottom and jump off the slide.
+
+"That was so fun, Mommy!" Lily and Max say. They hug their mommy and thank her.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily and Max," Mommy says. She hugs them back and kisses their cheeks. "I'm glad you had fun. Now, do you want to play some more?"
+
+"Yes, we do, Mommy!" Lily and Max say. They run to the swings and the seesaw. They play until they are tired and hungry. Then they go home with their mommy and have a yummy snack. They are happy and proud of their adventure on the slide.
+Lily liked to dream. Every night, she closed her eyes and saw many things. She saw big animals, like elephants and giraffes. She saw small animals, like mice and birds. She saw colors, like red and blue and yellow. She saw places, like the park and the beach and the moon.
+
+One night, she dreamed of a lime. It was a green fruit that was sour and juicy. She had never seen a lime before, but she liked it. She wanted to taste it. She reached out her hand and picked the lime from a tree. She peeled it and bit into it. It made her mouth pucker, but it was good.
+
+"Hello, little girl," a voice said. Lily looked up and saw a boy. He was smiling and holding a basket. He had brown hair and brown eyes. He was wearing a green shirt and green pants. He looked like the lime.
+
+"Hello, little boy," Lily said. "Who are you?"
+
+"I'm Leo," the boy said. "I live in the lime land. This is where all the limes grow. Do you like limes?"
+
+"Yes, I do," Lily said. "They are yummy and fun."
+
+"Would you like some more?" Leo asked. He opened his basket and showed Lily many limes. They were big and small, round and oval, smooth and bumpy. They smelled fresh and sweet.
+
+"Yes, please," Lily said. She liked Leo. He was generous and kind. He gave her some limes and they ate them together. They laughed and talked and played. They became friends.
+
+Lily was happy in the lime land. She wished she could stay there forever. But then, she heard a noise. It was her mom, calling her name. She woke up and opened her eyes. She saw her room, her bed, her toys. She saw the sun, shining through the window. She saw her mom, smiling and holding a plate.
+
+"Good morning, Lily," her mom said. "I have a surprise for you. Guess what I found at the market today?"
+
+Lily rubbed her eyes and looked at the plate. She saw a lime. It was a green fruit that was sour and juicy. She had seen it in her dream. She smiled and clapped her hands.
+
+"A lime!" she said. "Thank you, mom. Can I have it?"
+
+"Of course, sweetie," her mom said. "Here you go. Enjoy your lime."
+
+Lily took the lime and peeled it. She bit into it and felt the same pucker as in her dream. She liked it. She thought of Leo and the lime land. She wondered if he was dreaming of her. She hoped he was. She hoped they would meet again. She finished her lime and licked her lips. She was happy. She had a good dream. She had a good lime. She had a good mom. She had a good day.
+Anna and Ben love to play with their toys. They have a lot of toys, but their favorite is the record player. They like to listen to music and sing along. Sometimes they pretend to be singers and record their voices.
+
+One day, they found a hanger in their closet. They had an idea. They put the hanger on their head and pretended it was a microphone. They felt very excited. They wanted to record their songs with the hanger.
+
+They turned on the record player and put a blank tape in it. They pressed the record button and started to sing. They sang about their toys, their family, and their friends. They sang very loud and very happy.
+
+"Hello, hello, we are Anna and Ben, we like to sing and play, we have a lot of fun, we are Anna and Ben!" they sang.
+
+Their mom heard them from the kitchen. She smiled and went to their room. She saw them with the hanger on their head and the record player on the floor. She thought they were very cute and creative.
+
+"Wow, you are making a record!" she said. "Can I listen to it?"
+
+"Yes, mom, yes!" Anna and Ben said. They stopped the record player and played their tape. They were very proud of their songs. They danced and clapped with their mom. They had a lot of fun. They made a record with a hanger.
+Sam and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the backyard. They liked to make them go fast and crash into each other. Sometimes they pretended that the cars were on fire and made loud noises.
+
+"Look, my car is a flame car!" Sam said, holding his red car in the air. "It can destroy anything!"
+
+"That's stupid!" Ben said, grabbing his blue car. "My car is a water car! It can put out your flame car!"
+
+They threw their cars at each other, trying to knock them down. They laughed and shouted, having fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud roar from behind the fence. It was a big dog, and it was angry. It jumped over the fence and ran towards them, barking and growling.
+
+"Help!" Sam and Ben screamed, dropping their cars and running to the house. "There's a bad dog!"
+
+They reached the door and slammed it shut, panting and scared. They looked out the window and saw the dog picking up their cars in its mouth and chewing them.
+
+"Hey, stop it!" Sam yelled. "Those are our cars!"
+
+The dog ignored him and kept destroying their cars. It ripped off the wheels and the doors and the windows. It spit out the pieces and looked for more.
+
+Sam and Ben felt sad and mad. They liked their cars. They wished they had a real flame car or a water car to stop the dog. But they didn't. They only had each other.
+
+They hugged and said, "It's okay. We can get new cars. But we still have our friends."
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big jar of honey at a stall. They love honey on their toast.
+
+"Can we have some honey, please?" they ask their mom.
+
+"Sorry, sweeties, we don't have enough money for that honey. It is very expensive. Look, it has a gold sticker on it. That means it costs a lot of money. We can buy some cheap honey at the store later. It is just as good," their mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They really want the expensive honey. They think it must be very yummy. They see a man walking away from the stall with the big jar of honey. He puts it in his bag and walks to a bench.
+
+Lily and Ben have an idea. They run after the man. They are very fast. They catch up with him. They reach into his bag and grab the big jar of honey. They run back to their mom and dad.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, we got the honey!" they shout.
+
+The man sees them. He is very angry. He chases them. He yells at them.
+
+"Hey, you little thieves, give me back my honey! That is mine! I paid a lot of money for it!"
+
+He throws his bag at them. It hits Lily on the head. She drops the big jar of honey. It breaks on the ground. The honey spills everywhere. It is sticky and messy.
+
+Lily and Ben start to cry. They are hurt and scared. Their mom and dad run to them. They hug them and comfort them. They apologize to the man. They offer to pay for the honey. The man is still angry, but he accepts their apology and their money. He walks away, shaking his head.
+
+Lily and Ben learn a lesson. They should not take things that are not theirs. They should listen to their mom and dad. They should be happy with what they have. They do not need expensive honey to be happy. They have each other. And they have some cheap honey at home.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were spies and had a secret mission. They had a toy missile that they hid under a slide. They wanted to stop the bad guys from taking it.
+
+"Ben, you stay here and guard the missile. I will go and look for clues," Lily said. She ran to the swings and looked around.
+
+Ben nodded and held the missile. He felt very brave and smart. He saw a big dog running towards him. The dog was wild and barked loud. Ben was scared and dropped the missile.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Ben shouted. He tried to get the missile back, but the dog was faster. The dog grabbed the missile in its mouth and ran away.
+
+Lily heard Ben and came back. She saw the dog and the missile. She was angry and sad.
+
+"Ben, what did you do? You let the dog take our missile! Now we can't finish our mission!" Lily said. She sighed and crossed her arms.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I was afraid of the dog. It was wild and big. I didn't mean to lose the missile," Ben said. He sighed and looked down.
+
+Lily and Ben felt bad. They liked to play together, but they also liked to win. They didn't know what to do.
+
+Then they saw a man running after the dog. The man was the dog's owner. He was sorry and kind.
+
+"Hey, kids, I'm so sorry. My dog escaped from his leash. He likes to chase things. He didn't mean to take your toy. Here, you can have it back," the man said. He gave the missile to Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They were happy and relieved. They thanked the man and hugged the dog.
+
+"Maybe the dog can be our friend. He can help us with our mission. He can be our spy dog," Lily said.
+
+"That's a good idea, Lily. He can be our spy dog. He can bark at the bad guys and scare them away," Ben said.
+
+Lily and Ben laughed and played with the dog. They forgot about their fight and had fun. They were spies and friends. They had a wild and good day.

+She turns the page and sees a picture of oil. The oil is black and sticky. Sara does not like the oil. She thinks the oil is dirty and bad. She says, "Yuck! Oil is yucky!"
+
+Her mom hears Sara and comes to her room. She sees the book and smiles. She says, "Sara, this is a book about how cars work. Oil is not yucky. Oil is important for cars. Oil helps cars run smoothly and safely. Oil is healthy for cars."
+
+Sara looks at her mom and the book. She is confused. She says, "But oil is not healthy for me. Oil makes me sick. I do not want to eat oil."
+
+Her mom laughs and hugs Sara. She says, "You are right, Sara. Oil is not healthy for you. You do not have to eat oil. But you can learn about oil and how it helps cars. Learning is healthy for you. Do you want to read the book with me?"

+
+One day, they found a big mirror in the attic. They climbed up the stairs and looked at the mirror. They saw their image. They saw two of them. They smiled and waved at the mirror. They thought it was fun.
+
+But then, they had an idea. They wanted to trick their mom. They wanted to make her think they were one person. They split. Anna went to the kitchen. Ben went to the living room. They wore the same clothes. They hid one of their shoes.
+

+
+"Wow, what a nice shoe, Anna!" Mom said. She smiled and hugged her.
+
+"Mom, mom, look at me!" Ben said in the living room. He showed his mom his shoe.
+
+"Wow, what a nice shoe, Ben!" Mom said. She smiled and hugged him.
+
+Mom was confused. She was troubled. How could Anna and Ben be in two places at once? How could they have the same shoe? She went to the attic. She saw the mirror. She understood.
+
+She called Anna and Ben. They came to the attic. They saw their mom. They saw the mirror. They saw their image. They saw two of them. They giggled and hugged each other.
+
+"Mom, we were just playing!" Anna said.
+
+"We wanted to trick you!" Ben said.
+
+Mom was not angry. She was amused. She laughed and hugged them.
+
+"I love you, Anna and Ben!" Mom said. "But don't split again. You are two, not one. And that's what makes you special."
+Tommy was excited to see the caterpillar on the leaf. He wanted to touch it and play with it. He asked his mom if he could take it home.
+
+"OK, but you have to be gentle and put it in a jar with some leaves and air holes," his mom said. "And don't forget to let it go when it turns into a butterfly."
+
+Tommy nodded and carefully picked up the caterpillar. He put it in a jar and ran to his room. He put the jar on his desk and watched the caterpillar crawl and eat. He thought it was the best thing ever.
+
+The next day, Tommy went to the park with his mom and dad. He had so much fun on the swings and the slide. He saw some ducks and some flowers. He forgot all about the caterpillar in his room.
+
+When he came back home, he remembered the jar and ran to his desk. But he was too late. The caterpillar was not moving. It was dead. Tommy felt sad and angry. He cried and threw the jar on the floor. He wished he had not forgotten the caterpillar. He wished he had let it go.
+Sara and Ben love to design candy. They use paper, crayons, scissors and glue to make colorful shapes of candy. They pretend to eat them and share them with their toys.
+
+One day, they decide to design candy for their mom. They want to surprise her when she comes home from work. They are very busy making lots of candy. They do not hear their dad calling them for lunch.
+
+"Come on, kids, it's time to eat!" Dad says. He goes to their room and sees the mess. There are paper and crayons and glue everywhere. Some of the glue is on the carpet and the bed. Some of the paper is on the window and the door. Some of the crayons are broken and melted.
+
+"What have you done?" Dad asks. He is very angry. He picks up the candy and throws them in the trash. He tells Sara and Ben to clean up the room and go to the kitchen.
+
+"But Dad, we made candy for Mom!" Sara says. She starts to cry.
+

+
+Sara and Ben are very sad. They wanted to make Mom happy, but they made Dad mad. They have no candy and no lunch. They have to clean up the room and think of something else. They wish they had not designed candy.
+Lila and Sam were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They also liked to share their snacks and toys.
+
+One day, Lila brought a new toy to the park. It was a luxury toy. It was a shiny car that could move by itself. Lila was very proud of her toy. She showed it to Sam and said, "Look at my new toy. It is the best toy ever. You don't have a toy like this. You only have old and boring toys."
+
+Sam felt sad and angry. He wanted to play with the luxury toy, but Lila did not let him. She said, "No, you can't touch my toy. It is only for me. You might break it or lose it. Go play with your own toys."
+
+Sam felt very hurt. He thought Lila was not a good friend. He decided to teach her a lesson. He waited until Lila was not looking. Then he ran to her toy and grabbed it. He ran away as fast as he could. He wanted to hide the toy and make Lila cry.
+
+But as he was running, he did not see a big dog. The dog was barking and chasing a ball. The dog bumped into Sam and made him fall. The luxury toy flew out of his hand and landed on the road. A big truck was coming. The truck ran over the toy and smashed it. The toy was broken into pieces.

+
+Sam felt very ashamed. He realized he had done a wrong thing. He had hurt Lila and her toy. He had been selfish and mean. He wished he could take it back. He said, "I'm sorry, Lila. I'm sorry I took your toy and broke it. I was jealous and angry. I wanted to play with your toy, but you did not share. I was wrong. Please forgive me."
+
+Lila looked at Sam. She saw he was sorry. She also realized she had done a wrong thing. She had been proud and rude. She had not shared her toy with her friend. She had been wrong. She said, "I'm sorry, Sam. I'm sorry I did not share my toy with you. I was proud and rude. I wanted to show off my toy, but you did not care. I was wrong. Please forgive me."
+
+Sam and Lila hugged each other. They said they were still friends. They learned a lesson. They learned that luxury toys are not important. They learned that friendship and sharing are important.

They learned that they should warm their hearts.
+Mia was sad. She missed her grandma, who lived far away. She wanted to hug her and hear her stories. She looked at the picture of grandma on her nightstand and felt tears in her eyes.
+
+"Mia, what's wrong?" Mommy asked, coming into her room. She saw Mia holding the picture and guessed why she was sad. She sat on the bed and wrapped her arms around Mia. "Do you miss grandma?"
+
+"Yes, Mommy. I miss her a lot. When can we see her again?" Mia asked, sniffling.
+
+"I know, sweetie. I miss her too. But we can call her tomorrow and tell her we love her. And maybe we can visit her soon, when it's safe. OK?" Mommy said, kissing Mia's forehead.
+
+"OK, Mommy. I love you. And I love grandma." Mia said, feeling a little better.
+
+Mommy smiled and tucked Mia in. She gave her a stuffed bear to cuddle with. "You know, Mia, sometimes when I miss grandma, I think of a happy memory we shared. Like when she baked us those tasty cookies, or when she read us that funny book, or when she sang us that silly song. And then I feel like she's with me in my heart. Do you want to try that?"
+
+"Yes, Mommy. That sounds nice." Mia said, closing her eyes. She thought of grandma's warm smile, her soft voice, and her yummy cookies. She felt a warm feeling in her heart.
+

+Sam and Lily liked to play with their toys in the garden. They had cars, dolls, balls and a big helicopter. The helicopter was red and yellow and made a loud noise when it flew in the air.
+
+One day, a nosy cat came to the garden. The cat saw the helicopter and wanted to catch it. It jumped and ran after the helicopter, but it was too fast. The cat got angry and scratched the helicopter with its claws. It made a big hole in the helicopter and it fell to the ground.

+
+The cat ran away, but the helicopter was still broken. Sam and Lily were very sad. They loved their helicopter and they did not want to lose it.
+
+"Maybe we can fix it," Lily said. "Let's wash it first and see what we can do."
+
+They took the helicopter to the tap and washed it with water and soap. They rubbed the dirt and the cat hair off the helicopter. They dried it with a towel and looked at the hole.
+
+"It's still there," Sam said. "How can we fix it?"
+
+Lily had an idea. She ran to the house and came back with some tape and a sticker. She put the tape over the hole and pressed it hard. Then she put the sticker on top of the tape. The sticker had a picture of a star.
+
+"There, it's fixed!" Lily said. "Now our helicopter has a star. It's even prettier than before."
+
+Sam smiled and hugged Lily. They turned on the helicopter and watched it fly in the air. It still made a loud noise, but it did not fall.

+Ben and Mia looked at each other. They were in shock. They did not know dogs could talk. They did not recognize the dog's voice.
+
+"Can you really talk?" Mia asked the dog.
+
+"Yes, I can," the dog said. "I learned from the birds. They taught me many words. Do you want to be my friends?"
+
+Ben and Mia smiled. They liked the dog. He seemed nice and friendly. They decided to give him a chance.
+
+"OK, we can be your friends," Ben said. "But you have to be gentle and careful. Don't bite or scratch us."

+Ben and Lily were at the market with their mom. They saw many fruits and vegetables. Mom said they could pick one thing to take home. Ben saw a big, green melon. He liked melons. They were juicy and tasty. He pointed to the melon and said, "Mom, can we have this?"
+
+Mom looked at the melon and smiled. She said, "Yes, we can have the melon. But we have to share it with Lily. Do you think she will like it too?"

+
+"No, I won't!" Max said. "I like to make a volcano with the toys. Look, it's erupting!" He pretended to make a loud noise and threw some toys in the air.

+Sam said: "Sure, Lily. I'm sorry I made you sad. You are my friend. Your picture is very beautiful. Can I play with the doll with you?"
+
+Lily and Sam smiled. They hugged each other. They played with the car toy and the doll. They had fun. They were friends again.
+Sara and Ben like to play with paper. They can fold it into many shapes. They can make hats, boats, planes and animals. They have a lot of fun with paper.
+
+One day, they find a big pit in the park. It is deep and dark. They wonder what is inside. They want to explore it. They have an idea. They fold some paper planes and throw them into the pit. They hope to see where they land.
+
+"Look, mine went far!" Sara says. She points to her plane. It is red and blue.
+
+"Mine too!" Ben says. He points to his plane. It is yellow and green.
+
+They throw more planes into the pit. They watch them fly and fall. They laugh and clap.
+
+But then, they hear a growl. It comes from the pit. It is loud and scary. They see a big shadow. It is a bear. It is angry. It does not like the paper planes. It wants to eat them.
+
+"Run!" Sara says. She grabs Ben's hand. They run away from the pit. They are afraid.
+
+They see their mom. She is waiting for them. She is dependable. She loves them. She hugs them.
+
+"What's wrong, my darlings?" she asks. She sees their faces. They are pale and sad.
+
+"We saw a bear in the pit!" Sara says. She tells her mom what happened.
+
+"A bear in the pit?" mom says. She is surprised. She does not believe them. She thinks they are making up a story.
+
+But then, she hears a growl. It comes from the pit. It is loud and scary. She sees a big shadow. It is a bear. It is angry. It does not like the paper planes. It wants to eat them.
+
+"Run!" mom says. She holds Sara and Ben. They run away from the pit. They are afraid.
+
+They go home. They are safe. They do not play with paper planes anymore. They play with paper hats instead. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they found a shiny red ball in the grass. They were very happy and started to bounce it and throw it to each other.
+
+"Look, this ball is so fun!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, it is! Let's see how high we can make it go!" Ben said.
+
+They threw the ball higher and higher, until it went over the fence and into the street. They ran after it, but did not look for cars.
+
+"Stop!" a voice shouted. It was their mom, who saw them from the window. She was very scared and angry. She ran to the street and grabbed them by the hand.
+
+"What are you doing? You could have been hurt by a car! That was very careless of you!" she said.
+
+"We're sorry, mom. We just wanted to play with the ball," Lily said.
+
+"That ball is not worth your life. You have to be careful and listen to me when I warn you. I love you and I don't want you to get hurt," mom said.
+
+She hugged them and took them back to the yard. She gave them a kiss and said, "Next time, play with the ball inside the fence, okay?"
+
+"Okay, mom. We love you too," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They learned their lesson and never ran into the street again. They played with the ball safely and had fun. They knew that their mom's love was the most valuable thing in the world.
+Lila and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One morning, they woke up early and saw the sunrise. The sky was pink and orange and yellow. It was very pretty.
+
+"Look, Lila, the sun is coming up!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, Tom, it is. Let's go outside and play!" Lila said.
+
+They put on their shoes and jackets and ran outside. They saw a big pile of leaves in the yard. They decided to have fun with the leaves.
+
+"Let's throw the leaves in the air!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, Tom, let's do it!" Lila said.
+
+They picked up handfuls of leaves and threw them in the air. The leaves flew like birds and made a crunchy sound. They laughed and threw more leaves. They felt happy and warm.
+
+But then, they heard a voice. It was Lila's mom.
+
+"Lila, Tom, what are you doing? You are making a mess!" Lila's mom said.
+
+They stopped throwing leaves and looked at Lila's mom. She was not happy. She had a broom in her hand.
+
+"Sorry, mom, we were just playing," Lila said.
+
+"Well, you need to clean up this mess. The yard is empty of leaves now. You need to put them back in the pile," Lila's mom said.
+
+"OK, mom, we will," Lila said.
+
+They put down the leaves and picked up the broom. They started to sweep the leaves back into the pile. It was not as fun as throwing them, but they did it anyway. They wanted to make Lila's mom happy.
+
+They finished sweeping the leaves and put the broom away. They looked at the pile of leaves. It was big again.
+
+"Can we jump in the pile, mom?" Lila asked.
+
+"Only if you promise to clean up again," Lila's mom said.
+
+They nodded and smiled. They ran to the pile and jumped in. The leaves were soft and cozy. They giggled and hugged.
+
+They liked the sunrise. They liked the leaves. They liked each other. They were happy.
+Lily liked to count the grass in the park. She would sit on the ground and touch each blade with her finger. One, two, three, four, she would say. The grass was green and delicate. It tickled her hand.
+
+One day, she saw a big dog in the park. The dog was brown and furry. It ran towards her and barked. Lily was scared. She tried to get up and run away, but the dog was faster. It jumped on her and bit her arm. Lily screamed.
+
+A man came and pulled the dog away. He said he was sorry. He said the dog was not his. He said he would call for help. Lily cried. Her arm was bleeding and hurting. She did not want to count the grass anymore. She wanted her mom.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a squirrel on a tree. The squirrel had a big nut in its mouth. Ben and Mia wanted to see the nut.
+
+"Look, a squirrel!" Ben said. "It has a nut!"
+
+"Let's go closer!" Mia said. "Maybe it will share!"
+
+They ran towards the tree. The squirrel saw them and got scared. It ran up the tree with the nut. Ben and Mia followed it. They tried to climb the tree.
+
+"Be careful!" Ben said. "The tree is high!"
+
+"I can do it!" Mia said. "I want the nut!"
+
+But the tree was too high and the branches were too thin. Mia reached for the nut, but the branch broke. She fell down and hit the ground. She cried out loud.
+
+"Mia!" Ben shouted. He climbed down and ran to her. He hugged her and said, "Are you okay?"
+
+Mia was hurt and sad. She had a bump on her head and a scratch on her arm. She said, "No, I'm not okay. I wanted the nut. It was important."
+
+Ben said, "The nut is not important. You are important. The squirrel needs the nut more than we do. It is its food. We have other food. We have cookies and juice. Come on, let's go to Mom. She will make you feel better."
+
+Mia nodded. She wiped her tears and said, "Okay. You are a good brother. Thank you."
+
+They held hands and walked to Mom. The squirrel watched them from the tree. It was happy and safe with its nut. It said, "Squeak, squeak!"
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play on the farm. They liked to see the animals and help the farmer with his work. One day, the farmer gave them a big sack and told them to fill it with apples from the orchard.
+
+"Be careful, children," the farmer said. "Don't eat too many apples or you will get a tummy ache. And don't drop the sack or the apples will get bruised."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and ran to the orchard. They saw many red and green apples on the trees. They picked some and put them in the sack. They also ate some and said they were yummy.
+
+Lily was bossy and wanted to pick all the apples. She told Tom to hold the sack and not to pick any more. Tom did not like that. He wanted to pick some apples too. He thought Lily was not fair.
+
+"Let me pick some apples, Lily," Tom said. "It is more fun if we share."
+
+"No, Tom," Lily said. "You are too slow and too small. I can pick more apples than you. You just hold the sack and don't move."
+
+Tom was sad and angry. He did not want to hold the sack. He wanted to play and pick apples. He saw a big apple on a high branch. He wanted to reach it. He let go of the sack and climbed the tree.
+
+Lily saw Tom climbing the tree. She was angry too. She wanted Tom to hold the sack. She did not want to carry it by herself. She shouted at Tom.
+
+"Tom, come down from the tree right now!" Lily said. "You are naughty and silly. You dropped the sack and the apples are rolling away. Come and help me pick them up."
+
+Tom did not listen to Lily. He was happy on the tree. He grabbed the big apple and bit into it. It was juicy and sweet. He smiled and said.
+
+"No, Lily, I will not come down. You are bossy and mean. You did not let me pick any apples. You can pick them up by yourself."
+
+Lily was very angry. She stamped her foot and cried. She did not want to pick up the apples. She wanted Tom to help her. She saw the farmer coming. She was scared. She knew the farmer would be cross with them. She wished she had been nicer to Tom. She wished they had played together.
+Lily 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, a big dog came running to them. He was playful, but he did not know how to play with snowmen. He jumped on the snowman and knocked him down. He bit the carrot nose and the rocks. He tore the hat and the scarf.
+
+Lily and Ben were sad and scared. They tried to warn the dog to stop. They shouted, "No, dog, no! Leave our snowman alone!" But the dog did not listen. He wagged his tail and barked.
+
+Then, Lily had an idea. She took off her glove and threw it far away. The dog saw the glove and ran after it. He thought it was a toy. He caught the glove and shook it.
+
+Lily and Ben quickly ran to their house. They were cold and wet. They told their mom what happened. She hugged them and gave them hot chocolate. She said, "I'm sorry about your snowman, but I'm glad you are safe. Next time, be careful of playful dogs. They don't always know how to be gentle."
+Sara was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had a big dollhouse with many rooms and doors. She liked to pretend that her dolls were a king and a queen who lived in the dollhouse.
+
+One day, she was playing with her dolls when she heard a loud knock on the door. She opened it and saw a boy with a mean face. He was her neighbor, Tom, who liked to tease her and take her toys.
+
+"Give me your dollhouse!" he said. "It's mine now!"
+
+He pushed Sara aside and ran to the dollhouse. He grabbed the queen doll and locked her in a small room. He laughed and said, "Now the queen is helpless! She can't get out!"
+
+Sara was very sad and angry. She wanted to help her queen doll. She looked around and saw a small key on the floor. It was the key to the room where the queen was locked. She picked it up and ran to the dollhouse.
+
+She reached the door and put the key in the lock. She turned it and heard a click. She opened the door and took out the queen doll. She hugged her and said, "Don't worry, queen. I'm here to save you!"
+
+She looked at Tom and said, "You are very bad! You can't take my dollhouse or my dolls! They are mine!"
+
+Tom was surprised and scared. He saw that Sara had the key and the queen. He dropped the king doll and ran away. He said, "Sorry, sorry, I won't do it again!"
+
+Sara smiled and put the queen and the king back in the dollhouse. She said, "You are safe now, my dolls. I love you very much. You are the best king and queen ever!"
+Tom was a shy boy who liked to play with his wagon. He had a red wagon that he got for his birthday. He would pull it around the yard and put his toys in it. He was happy with his wagon.
+
+One day, a new boy moved in next door. His name was Ben. Ben had a blue wagon that was bigger and newer than Tom's. Ben saw Tom playing with his wagon and wanted to play too. He asked Tom if he could share his wagon. Tom said no. He did not want to share his wagon with Ben. He was afraid that Ben would break it or take it away.
+
+Ben was sad and angry. He thought Tom was mean and selfish. He decided to lie to Tom and trick him. He told Tom that he had a surprise for him in his wagon. He said it was a big and shiny toy that Tom would love. Tom was curious and excited. He wanted to see the surprise. He left his wagon and followed Ben to his wagon.
+
+But there was no surprise in Ben's wagon. It was empty. Ben laughed and ran away with Tom's wagon. He said it was his now. Tom was shocked and sad. He had lost his wagon and his toys. He cried and ran home.
+
+Tom's mom saw him crying and asked him what happened. Tom told her the truth. He said he did not share his wagon with Ben and Ben lied to him and took it away. Tom's mom hugged him and said she was sorry. She said that sharing is good and lying is bad. She said that if Tom had shared his wagon with Ben, they could have been friends and played together. She said that lying hurts people and breaks trust. She said that Tom should learn from his mistake and be kind and honest.
+
+Tom felt sorry and ashamed. He realized that he was wrong and Ben was wrong too. He wanted to get his wagon back and say sorry to Ben. He asked his mom to help him. His mom agreed and they went to Ben's house. They knocked on the door and Ben's mom opened it. She saw Tom and his mom and asked them what they wanted. Tom's mom explained what happened and asked for Tom's wagon back. Ben's mom was surprised and angry. She called Ben and asked him if he lied and took Tom's wagon. Ben said yes. He looked scared and guilty. Ben's mom scolded him and said he had to give back Tom's wagon and apologize. She said that lying is wrong and stealing is wrong. She said that Ben should learn from his mistake and be respectful and fair.
+
+Ben gave back Tom's wagon and said sorry to Tom. Tom said sorry to Ben too. He said he was sorry for not sharing his wagon with him. He said he wanted to be friends with him. Ben said he wanted to be friends with him too. He said he was sorry for lying to him and taking his wagon. He said he wanted to share his wagon with him. Tom smiled and said thank you. He said he wanted to share his wagon with him too. They hugged and said sorry to their moms. Their moms smiled and said they were proud of them. They said they had learned a valuable lesson. They said they hoped they would play nicely and honestly from now on.

+Lily and Sam were hot. They played outside in the sun for a long time. They were thirsty and tired. They wanted to go inside and cool down.
+
+"Let's go to the kitchen and get some water," Lily suggested. "Maybe Mom has some ice cream too."
+
+"Good idea," Sam agreed. "But first, can we turn on the fan in the living room? It will make us feel better."
+
+They ran to the living room and found the fan on the table. Sam reached for the switch, but Lily stopped him.
+
+"Wait, Sam. Look at Dad. He is sleeping on the couch. He worked hard today. He needs to rest. If we turn on the fan, it might be too loud and wake him up."
+
+Lily was thoughtful. She cared about Dad and did not want to bother him. Sam nodded. He understood.
+
+"You're right, Lily. We don't want to disturb Dad. Let's be quiet and go to the kitchen. Maybe we can find another fan there."
+
+They tiptoed to the kitchen and found a small fan on the counter. They turned it on and felt the cool breeze. They drank some water and ate some ice cream. They smiled at each other. They were happy and cool. They were good kids.
+Lily liked to wake up early and help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to be a good helper and make her mom happy. She could do many things, like stir the eggs, pour the juice, and set the table. But there was one thing she could not do: wash the dishes.
+
+Mom always said that washing the dishes was too hard and too dangerous for Lily. She said that the water was too hot, the soap was too slippery, and the dishes were too breakable. Lily had to wait until she was bigger and stronger to wash the dishes. Lily was sad. She wanted to wash the dishes too. She wanted to show her mom that she could do everything.
+
+One day, Lily woke up very early, before her mom and dad. She had a plan. She decided to wash the dishes by herself and surprise her mom. She climbed on a chair and reached for the sink. She turned on the faucet and filled the sink with water. She added some soap and bubbles. She grabbed a dish and started to scrub it.
+
+But Lily did not know how to wash the dishes. She did not know how to hold the dish firmly, how to rinse the soap off, or how to dry the dish. She dropped the dish and it broke into pieces. She gasped and tried to pick up the pieces. But the pieces were sharp and cut her fingers. She cried and dropped more dishes. The sink was full of water, soap, and broken dishes. Lily felt helpless. She did not know what to do.
+
+She heard her mom coming down the stairs. She was scared. She knew her mom would be angry and sad. She hid behind the chair and hoped her mom would not see her. But her mom saw the mess in the kitchen. She saw the water, the soap, and the broken dishes. She saw Lily's bleeding fingers and tearful eyes. She ran to Lily and hugged her. She was not angry or sad. She was worried and sorry. She said, "Lily, what did you do? You could have hurt yourself. You don't have to wash the dishes. You are too little. You are my good helper, but you have to be careful. I love you, Lily. Let me help you." She took Lily to the bathroom and cleaned her fingers. She put a band-aid on each cut. She kissed Lily and said, "It's okay, Lily. We can clean the kitchen later. Let's have some breakfast first. You are my brave girl, Lily. But please, don't wash the dishes again." Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to surprise you. I wanted to wash the dishes too. But I don't know how. I need your help, mom. I love you, mom." Mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Lily. You are my sweet girl, Lily. And you can help me with many other things. But not with the dishes. Not yet." Lily smiled and hugged her mom. She felt better. She learned a lesson. She would wait until she was bigger and stronger to wash the dishes. She would listen to her mom and be a good helper. She would be happy.
+One day, Ben and Lily went to the park with their mom. They saw a big fountain with water that went up and down. Ben and Lily wanted to play in the water, but their mom said no. She said they would get wet and cold.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not listen. They ran to the fountain and jumped in. They splashed and laughed and had fun. They did not see their mom calling them.
+
+Soon, they felt very cold and wet. Their clothes were soaked and their shoes were squishy. They shivered and wanted to go home.
+
+They ran back to their mom, who was very angry. She said they were naughty and did not obey. She said they had to go home right away and change their clothes. She said they could not have ice cream as a treat.
+
+Ben and Lily were very sad. They loved ice cream. They saw a man with a cart selling ice cream cones. They smelled the sweet and yummy ice cream. They wanted to have a cone, but they knew they could not.
+
+They said they were sorry to their mom. They said they learned their lesson. They said they would not play in the fountain again. They said they would listen to their mom next time.
+
+Their mom hugged them and said she forgave them. She said she loved them very much. She said they could have a cone another day, if they behaved well. She said they should always follow the rules and respect the water.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and smiled. They held their mom's hand and walked home. They felt warm and dry. They still wanted a cone, but they knew they had to wait. They thought playing in the fountain was fun, but it was also terrible. They decided to be good and listen to their mom. They knew she wanted the best for them.

+
+"Can I see your dolls?" Tom asks Sara.

+"OK, but you have to pay me," Sara says.
+
+"Pay you? How?" Tom says.
+
+"You have to give me your truck," Sara says.
+
+Tom thinks. He likes his truck. But he also wants to see the dolls. He says yes. He gives his truck to Sara. Sara gives him her case.
+
+Tom opens the case. He sees the dolls. They are bad. They are old and dirty. Some have no hair. Some have no eyes. Tom is sad. He wants his truck back.

+"Sara, these dolls are bad. I don't want them. Give me my truck back," Tom says.
+
+"No, you paid me. The truck is mine now. You can keep the dolls," Sara says.
+
+Tom is angry. He tries to take the truck from Sara. Sara holds the truck. They pull and push. The truck breaks. They both cry.
+
+Mama hears them. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the broken truck and the bad dolls. She is not happy.
+
+"Sara, Tom, what did you do? Why did you break the truck? Why did you trade your toys?" Mama says.
+
+Sara and Tom tell Mama what happened. Mama shakes her head.
+
+"That was not a good trade. You should not pay with your toys. You should share your toys. And you should not give bad toys to your friends. That is not nice. You have to say sorry to each other and fix the truck," Mama says.
+
+Sara and Tom say sorry to each other. They hug. They try to fix the truck. They put the bad dolls back in the case. They decide to play with something else. They learn their lesson.

+
+Anna stops and looks at Ben. She sees that he is sincere. She thinks for a moment. She says, "Okay, Ben. I forgive you. But don't do that again. It is not nice to lie. Jokes should be fun, not mean. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben nods. He says, "I understand, Anna. I'm sorry. I won't do that again. Can we play again?"

+
+Timmy and his friends went into the big house and found the bottle of wine. They poured it all over the cat's bed. When the cat came back, he was covered in wine and very unhappy.

+
+Her friend, Jack, saw her throw the lollipop away and asked her why she did that. Lily didn't know what to say because she was ignorant about what happens when candy starts to rot. Jack explained to her that when candy rots, it can make you sick.
+

+Her mom said, "Let's take a look."
+
+They opened the box, and found a thick rope inside. The girl was very excited. She put her hands around the rope, but she couldn't move it. 
+
+Her mom said, "It's too heavy for you. You need help. Maybe your dad can help you."

+
+The bear decided to walk up to the river, which was very deep, and he would jump in and swim across. He started walking towards the river, and one of the other animals saw him and began to shout:
+
+"What are you doing? That river is too dangerous!"
+
+But the bear would not listen and he kept going. When he reached the river, he jumped in, but he could not swim as well as he thought. He was pulled under the swift current and he never made it back out.

+
+Emily felt better and she continued walking to the store. Her father was so calming and she was very happy that he could keep her from worrying.
