Lily said. + +"They are working hard. They are making their home," Ben said. + +They heard their mom calling them from the house. + +"Time for lunch, kids! Come inside!" + +Lily and Ben did not want to leave the ants. They wanted to see more. + +"Can we stay a little longer, mom?" Lily shouted. + +"Please, mom, just a few more minutes?" Ben added. + +Mom smiled and said, "OK, but only a few more minutes. Then you have to come inside and wash your hands. Don't delay, or your food will get cold." + +Lily and Ben thanked mom and went back to the ant hill. They saw a beautiful ant queen coming out of the hole. She had shiny wings and a big body. + +"Look, Ben, it's the queen! She is so beautiful!" Lily said. + +"She is the boss of the ants. She lays the eggs and makes more ants," Ben said. + +They watched the queen fly away with some other ants. They wondered where she was going. + +"Maybe she is looking for a new home," Lily said. + +"Maybe she is visiting her friends," Ben said. + +They heard mom calling them again. + +"Come on, kids, time's up! Lunch is ready!" + +Lily and Ben said goodbye to the ants and ran to the house. They were hungry and curious. They wanted to learn more about the ants and the queen. They decided to come back to the garden later and look for them again. +Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big bird with a long neck and white feathers. It was a swan. Anna wanted to touch it, but Ben was scared. + +"Don't go near it, Anna. It can bite you," Ben said. + +"I just want to poke its wing. It looks so soft," Anna said. She walked slowly to the swan. + +The swan saw Anna coming. It was hungry and angry. It did not like strangers in its pond. It opened its mouth and hissed. + +Anna did not hear the hiss. She reached out her hand and poked the swan's wing. + +The swan snapped at Anna's hand. It hurt a lot. Anna screamed and ran back to Ben. + +"Ow, ow, ow! The swan bit me!" Anna cried. + +Ben hugged Anna and said, "I told you not to poke it. It was hungry and angry. You should have listened to me." + +Anna nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Ben. I was silly. Can we go home now?" + +Ben said, "Yes, let's go home. Mom will make it better." + +They held hands and walked away from the pond. The swan watched them go and flapped its wings. It was still hungry and angry. +Sara was a smart girl who liked to read books and learn new things. She had many books in her room, but her favorite one was about animals. She loved to look at the pictures and learn their names and sounds. + +One day, her mom asked her to bring a book to her little brother, Tom, who was sick in bed. Sara wanted to help, so she picked up her favorite book and went to Tom's room. She hoped he would like it too. + +"Hi, Tom. I brought you a book to read. It has many animals in it. Do you want to see?" Sara said in a soft voice. + +Tom looked at the book and smiled. He liked animals too. He thanked Sara and asked her to read it to him. Sara was happy to share her book and her voice with Tom. She opened the book and started to read. + +"This is a lion. He is big and strong. He has a mane and a tail. He says roar. Can you say roar, Tom?" Sara asked. + +Tom tried to say roar, but his voice was weak and raspy. He coughed and felt sad. He wanted to have a strong voice like the lion. + +Sara saw that Tom was sad and hugged him. She said, "Don't worry, Tom. You will get better soon. Your voice will be strong again. You just need to rest and drink some water. Mom will bring you some soup later. You are a brave boy, like the lion." + +Tom felt better and hugged Sara back. He said, "Thank you, Sara. You are a kind sister, like the lioness. You brought me a book and your voice. You made me happy. I love you." + +Sara smiled and said, "I love you too, Tom. Let's read some more. Maybe we can find another animal that you like." + +They read the book together and learned about many animals. They said their sounds and laughed. They had fun and forgot about Tom's sickness for a while. + +The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. Books and voices can bring joy and comfort to others. Being smart and kind can make you a good sister or brother. +Tim is a dog. He likes to run and play with his ball. He also likes to chew on bones. Bones are hard and tasty. Tim has many bones in his yard. He digs holes and hides them. + +One day, Tim sees a new dog in the park. The new dog is big and black. He has a bone in his mouth. Tim wants the bone. He runs to the new dog and barks. He says, "Give me your bone!" + +The new dog growls. He says, "No, this is my bone! Go away!" He shows his teeth. He is not nice. He does not want to share. + +Tim is not afraid. He is angry. He jumps on the new dog and tries to take the bone. The new dog bites him. Tim yelps. He feels pain. He lets go of the bone. + +The new dog runs away with the bone. He laughs. He says, "Ha ha, this is my bone! You are a silly dog!" + +Tim is sad and hurt. He goes back to his yard. He finds one of his bones. He chews on it. He feels better. He says, "I have many bones. I do not need the new dog's bone. He is mean. He does not mind me. I mind him. He is cold. I am warm. I have my ball and my yard. I am happy." +Tom and Lily were playing by the lake. They liked to watch the ducks and the fish in the water. They had some sticks and leaves and wanted to make a boat. + +"Look, I made a boat!" Tom said, showing Lily his stick with a leaf on top. "It can float on the water." + +"That's not a boat, that's a stick!" Lily said, laughing. "A boat has to be big and have a sail and a flag. Like this!" She showed Tom her boat, which was made of two sticks and a big leaf. + +They put their boats in the water and watched them float. Tom's boat went fast and Lily's boat went slow. They were happy and proud of their boats. + +But then a big wind came and blew their boats away. They ran after them, but they could not catch them. They saw their boats go far and far, until they could not see them anymore. + +"Where did our boats go?" Tom asked, feeling sad. + +"I don't know," Lily said, feeling confused. "Maybe they went to another lake. Or maybe they went to the sea. Or maybe they went to the moon." + +They looked at the sky and wondered where their boats were. They hoped their boats were happy and safe. They decided to make new boats tomorrow. +Ben and Lily were walking with their mom to the park. They saw a big billboard on the side of the road. It had a picture of a man with a red nose and a funny hat. The man was holding a bottle of juice and smiling. + +"What is that, mom?" Ben asked. + +"That is a billboard, Ben. It is a big sign that tells people about something they can buy or do," mom explained. + +"Why does the man have a red nose?" Lily wondered. + +"Maybe he has a cold, Lily. Or maybe he is trying to make people laugh," mom guessed. + +Ben and Lily looked at the billboard and giggled. They thought the man looked silly. + +Suddenly, Lily felt a tickle in her nose. She tried to hold it in, but she couldn't. She sneezed very loudly. + +"Achoo!" + +The sneeze was so loud that it made the billboard shake. The man's hat fell off and landed on the ground. The bottle of juice slipped from his hand and splashed on the sign. + +"Oh no!" mom said. + +Ben and Lily laughed even harder. They thought Lily was very clever. She made the billboard change with her sneeze. + +"Wow, Lily! You have a powerful sneeze!" Ben said. + +"Thank you, Ben. I didn't mean to do that, but it was funny," Lily said. + +Mom smiled and shook her head. She picked up the hat and gave it to a man who worked near the billboard. She apologized for the mess and took Ben and Lily to the park. They had a lot of fun playing and sneezing. +Sara and Tom like to play in the garden. They have a ball, a bike and a doll. They also have a lamp that can shine. They like to turn it on and off and see the light. + +One day, they find a big rock in the garden. It is shiny and pretty. Sara and Tom want to see it better. They bring the lamp and put it on the rock. They turn it on and off and see the sparkles. + +But the rock is not a rock. It is a glass. And the glass is sharp. When they touch it, it cuts their fingers. They cry and bleed. They drop the lamp and it breaks. The light goes out and the garden is dark. + +Mama hears them and runs to the garden. She sees the blood and the broken lamp and the glass. She is angry and scared. She shouts at Sara and Tom. + +"What have you done? You are naughty and stupid! You could have hurt yourself badly! You have ruined the lamp and the garden! Go to your room and stay there! No more playing for you!" + +Sara and Tom are sad and sorry. They go to their room and cry. They have no lamp, no rock, no garden and no fun. They have a bad day. +Sam was very happy. Today was his birthday. He wanted a big cake with candles and a toy car. He waited for his mom and dad to come home and deliver his cake and present. + +But his mom and dad did not come home. They were stuck in a big traffic jam. There were many cars and trucks and buses on the road. They could not move. They called Sam and said they were sorry. They said they would be late. + +Sam was very sad. He did not want to wait. He wanted his cake and present now. He looked around the house and saw a box on the table. It had a label that said "Do not open until your birthday". Sam thought maybe it was his present. He opened the box. + +Inside the box was a cake. It looked very tasty. It had chocolate and cream and sprinkles. It also had candles. Sam was very happy. He thought his mom and dad had left the cake for him. He did not see the note that said "This cake is for your neighbor. Please deliver it to her when we come home". + +Sam took the cake and put it on a plate. He lit the candles and made a wish. He wished for a toy car. He blew out the candles and cut a big slice of cake. He took a big bite. + +But the cake was not tasty. It was very bad. It had salt and pepper and vinegar and mustard. It was a prank cake. Sam spit out the cake and cried. He felt sick and angry. He had ruined his birthday and his neighbor's cake. He heard his mom and dad come home. They saw the mess and the note and the box. They were very mad. They scolded Sam and sent him to his room. Sam had no cake and no present and no fun. He had the worst birthday ever. +Lily and Tom were playing with their new toys. Lily had a doll with long hair and a pink dress. Tom had a car with big wheels and a loud horn. They liked their toys very much and did not want to share them. + +But then, their dog Spot came into the room. Spot was curious and wanted to play too. He saw the doll and the car and ran towards them. He grabbed the doll with his teeth and shook it hard. He made the hair and the dress come off. Lily was very sad and angry. She shouted at Spot. + +"Bad dog! Bad dog! You broke my doll! Go away!" + +Spot dropped the doll and ran to the car. He bit the car and made a hole in it. He made the wheels and the horn fall off. Tom was very sad and angry too. He shouted at Spot. + +"Bad dog! Bad dog! You broke my car! Go away!" + +Spot ran away with his tail between his legs. He did not understand why Lily and Tom were so mad. He just wanted to have fun. + +Lily and Tom looked at their toys. They were broken and ruined. They started to cry. They did not know what to do. + +Then, their mom came into the room. She saw the toys and the tears. She felt sorry for Lily and Tom. She hugged them and said. + +"Don't cry, my loves. I can help you. I have some glue. We can fix your toys. They will be like new again." + +She took the glue and the pieces of the toys. She put them together carefully. She made the hair and the dress stick to the doll. She made the wheels and the horn stick to the car. She gave the toys back to Lily and Tom. They smiled and thanked her. + +"Thank you, mom. You are the best. You fixed our toys. You made them new again." + +They hugged their mom and their toys. They were happy again. + +They decided to share their toys and play together. They also decided to protect their toys from Spot. They put them in a box and closed the lid. They said to Spot. + +"Spot, you are a good dog. But you can't play with our toys. They are not for you. They are for us. We love you, but we love our toys too." +Tom and Sue were on a big boat with their mom and dad. They liked to look at the water and the fish and the birds. But they did not like to stay in their room. They wanted to explore the boat and have fun. + +One day, they saw a sign that said "port". They asked their mom what it meant. She said it was where the boat stopped and they could get off and see a new place. Tom and Sue were very excited. They wanted to see the port and the people and the things there. + +But their mom said they had to wait until the boat stopped and their dad came back from his work. She said they had to be careful and not run away. She said the port could be dangerous and they could get lost or hurt. Tom and Sue did not listen. They were stubborn. They thought they knew better. + +When their mom was busy packing their bags, they sneaked out of their room and ran to the deck. They saw the port getting closer and closer. They saw many boats and houses and cars and people. They wanted to go there and see everything. + +They saw a small boat that was tied to the big boat. They thought it was a toy. They climbed on it and untied the rope. They did not know they were escaping. They thought they were playing. They pushed the boat away from the big boat and laughed. + +But soon they realized they were in trouble. The boat was moving fast and they did not know how to stop it or steer it. The water was deep and cold and scary. The people on the big boat and the port were shouting and waving at them. They were scared and sorry. They wished they had listened to their mom. They cried and hugged each other. They hoped someone would help them. +Lily liked to play dress-up with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had a pink vest that Lily made from an old sock. The vest had buttons and flowers on it. Lily thought it was very pretty. + +One day, Lily's friend Sam came over to play. Sam saw Anna and her vest. He wanted to play with Anna too. He asked Lily, "Can I have Anna? She has a nice vest." + +Lily said, "No, Sam. Anna is mine. You can play with another doll." + +Sam was envious of Lily and Anna. He did not like Lily's answer. He tried to grab Anna from Lily. Lily held on to Anna. They pulled and tugged. The vest ripped. One of the buttons fell off. Lily and Sam both cried. + +Lily's mom heard the noise. She came to see what was wrong. She saw Lily and Sam and the broken vest. She said, "What happened here?" + +Lily and Sam told her what happened. Lily's mom was not happy. She said, "You two need to say sorry to each other. And you need to be careful with your toys. The vest was sharp. You could have hurt yourself or each other." + +Lily and Sam said sorry to each other. They hugged and made up. Lily's mom fixed the vest with a needle and thread. She gave Anna back to Lily. She gave Sam another doll to play with. They played nicely together. They learned to share and to be gentle. +Tom was a little boy who liked to play in his room. He had many toys and books and a big bed. He was not afraid of the dark, because he had a night light that made a soft glow. + +One night, Tom heard a strange noise outside his window. He got up from his bed and walked to the window. He saw a big black bird with shiny eyes and a long beak. The bird was making a loud caw-caw sound. Tom was curious and wanted to see the bird better. + +He climbed on his chair and reached for the window. He wanted to open it and say hello to the bird. But as he reached, he knocked over his night light. The light fell on the floor and broke. The room became very dark. Tom was scared and cried. + +The bird heard Tom's cry and flew away. Tom's mom heard Tom's cry and ran to his room. She turned on the lamp and hugged Tom. She said, "It's okay, Tom. It was just a bird. You are safe. I will get you a new night light tomorrow." + +Tom felt better and said, "Thank you, mom. I'm sorry I broke the light. I was just curious." Mom said, "I know, Tom. You are a brave and smart boy. But next time, be careful and don't reach for the window. You might get hurt or let in something bad." + +She kissed Tom and tucked him in his bed. She said, "Good night, Tom. I love you." Tom said, "Good night, mom. I love you too." He closed his eyes and fell asleep. He dreamed of the big black bird and wondered where it went. +Lila and Tom were friends who liked to play in the park. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. They wanted to splash in the water and have fun. + +"Let's go splash, splash, splash!" Lila said. + +"OK, but be careful. The water is deep and cold." Tom said. + +They took off their shoes and socks and ran to the pond. They splashed each other and laughed. They saw some acorns on the ground and threw them in the water. The ducks and fish came to eat them. + +"Look, the acorns are yummy for them!" Lila said. + +"Let's find more acorns and feed them!" Tom said. + +They ran to a big tree and picked up some acorns. They did not see a sign that said "Do not feed the ducks and fish. The acorns are bad for them. They make them sick." + +They threw the acorns in the pond and watched the ducks and fish eat them. They did not know they were hurting them. + +The next day, they came back to the pond. They wanted to splash and play again. But they saw something sad. The ducks and fish were not moving. They were floating on the water. They were dead. + +"What happened to them?" Lila asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe they ate too many acorns." Tom said. + +They felt bad. They did not mean to kill them. They wished they had read the sign. They wished they had not thrown the acorns in the pond. They wished they had been more careful. They learned a hard lesson. They cried and went home. +Lily and Ben were very excited to see the parade. They put on their hats and coats and went with Mom and Dad to the big street. There were many people and noises and colors. Lily and Ben clapped and cheered when they saw the floats and the bands and the animals. + +But soon, Lily felt tired. Her feet hurt and her eyes were heavy. She wanted to rest. She tugged on Mom's hand and said, "Mom, can we go home? I'm sleepy." + +Mom smiled and said, "Sure, honey. We can go home. The parade is almost over anyway. Ben, are you ready to go too?" + +Ben nodded. He was also tired, but he wanted to see one more thing. He pointed to a big float that was coming. It had a huge ugly monster on it, with horns and teeth and fur. It made a loud roar and smoke came out of its nose. + +"Wow, look at that!" Ben said. "That's the scariest thing I ever saw!" + +Lily looked at the ugly monster and felt scared. She hid behind Mom and said, "I don't like that! That's too scary! Let's go now!" + +Mom hugged Lily and said, "Don't worry, sweetie. It's not real. It's just a pretend monster. It can't hurt you. Come on, let's go find our car and go home. We can rest and have some cookies and milk." + +Lily and Ben agreed. They said goodbye to the parade and followed Mom and Dad to the car. They were happy to go home and rest. They had seen enough of the parade for today. +Tom and Mia are playing in their room. They have many toys and clothes on the floor. Mom calls them from downstairs. + +"Tom, Mia, come and eat! The food is ready!" + +Tom and Mia want to eat, but they also want to keep playing. They look at each other and smile. They have an idea. + +"Let's rush to the kitchen and eat fast. Then we can come back and play more!" Tom says. + +"OK, let's go!" Mia agrees. + +They grab their hangers and put them on their heads. They pretend they are helmets. They run to the door and shout. + +"Zoom, zoom, we are space explorers! We are going to the moon!" + +They rush down the stairs, making loud noises. Mom sees them and laughs. + +"What are you wearing, you silly kids?" she asks. + +"These are our helmets, Mom. We are space explorers!" Tom says. + +"We are going to the moon, Mom. But first we need to eat!" Mia says. + +Mom hugs them and leads them to the table. She gives them each a plate of food. + +"OK, space explorers, enjoy your food. But don't eat too fast, or you will get a tummy ache!" she warns. + +Tom and Mia nod and start eating. They look at the window and see the clear sky. They see the moon shining bright. + +"Look, Mom, the moon is waiting for us!" Tom says. + +"Yes, it is, Mom. Can we go after we eat?" Mia asks. + +Mom smiles and nods. + +"Sure, you can go. But only in your imagination, OK? The moon is very far away, and you need a real rocket to go there. Not a hanger!" she explains. + +Tom and Mia understand. They finish their food and thank Mom. They run back to their room, holding their hangers. They lie on the floor and close their eyes. They imagine they are flying to the moon. They have fun in their space adventure. They are happy. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they went to the park with their mom and dad. They saw a big hill with a hole in it. "Look, a cave!" Lily said. "Let's go inside!" + +Ben was not sure. He thought the cave looked dark and scary. "Maybe there are monsters inside," he said. "Or bats. Or spiders. I don't want to go." + +Lily laughed. "Don't be silly, Ben. There are no monsters in the park. Only birds and squirrels and flowers. Come on, it will be fun!" + +She ran to the cave and went inside. Ben followed her, but he was still afraid. He held Lily's hand and looked around. The cave was cold and wet and full of rocks. He did not see any birds or squirrels or flowers. He only heard a strange noise. + +"What is that?" he asked Lily. + +Lily shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe it's the wind. Or a mouse. Or a frog. Let's go deeper and see!" + +She pulled Ben along and walked deeper into the cave. The noise got louder and louder. It sounded like a growl. Ben felt his heart beat faster and faster. He wanted to go back. + +"Lily, I don't like this. Let's go back. Please," he said. + +Lily rolled her eyes. "Don't be foolish, Ben. It's just a noise. There's nothing to be afraid of. Look, there's a light ahead. Maybe it's the end of the cave. Maybe we'll find a treasure!" + +She ran to the light and Ben followed her. But when they got there, they did not find a treasure. They found a bear. A big, angry, hungry bear. It roared at them and showed its teeth and claws. + +Lily and Ben screamed. They turned around and ran back to the entrance of the cave. They hoped the bear would not chase them. They hoped their mom and dad would hear them. They hoped they would be safe. + +They learned a lesson that day. They learned that caves are not always fun. They learned that noises are not always harmless. They learned that sometimes, it is better to listen to your brother than to be foolish. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together at school. One day, their teacher tells them that there is a festival in the park. She says they can go with their parents and see many fun things. + +Lily and Ben are excited. They ask their parents to take them to the festival. Their parents say yes and they go in the car. At the festival, they see balloons, clowns, animals, and games. They want to try everything. + +Lily sees a big slide. She wants to go on it. She tells Ben to come with her. Ben is scared. He says the slide is too high and fast. He does not want to go. Lily says he is a baby. She laughs at him. Ben feels embarrassed. He does not like Lily laughing at him. + +Ben sees a face painting booth. He wants to get his face painted. He tells Lily to come with him. Lily is bored. She says face painting is for little kids. She does not want to go. Ben says she is a chicken. He makes a cluck sound. Lily feels embarrassed. She does not like Ben making fun of her. + +Lily and Ben are angry. They do not want to play with each other anymore. They go to different places in the festival. They do not have fun. They miss their friend. + +After a while, they see each other again. They are both sad. They say they are sorry. They hug and make up. They decide to share and try new things together. They have fun again. They are happy. They are friends. +Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and cars and books. One day, Lily had a birthday. She invited Tom to her party. + +Tom wanted to give Lily a good gift. He looked at his toys, but they were old and small. He looked at his piggy bank, but it had only a few coins. He did not know what to do. + +He asked his mom for help. His mom smiled and said, "I have an idea. Why don't you make a gift for Lily? You can use your crayons and paper and glue and scissors. You can draw something that Lily likes and write a nice message." + +Tom liked his mom's idea. He worked hard and made a large card for Lily. He drew a picture of Lily and him holding hands. He wrote, "Happy birthday, Lily. You are my best friend. I love you. From, Tom." + +He put the card in an envelope and decorated it with stickers. He was proud of his gift. + +At the party, Lily opened her gifts. She got a doll, a book, a dress, and a hat. She thanked everyone and smiled. Then she saw Tom's envelope. She opened it and saw the card. + +She gasped and said, "Wow, Tom, this is beautiful. You made this for me?" + +Tom nodded and said, "Yes, Lily. I hope you like it." + +Lily hugged Tom and said, "I love it, Tom. This is the best gift ever. You are my best friend, too. Thank you." + +Tom and Lily admired the card together. They were happy. +Ben and Mia like to draw with crayons. They have many colors and make nice pictures. But today, Ben is grumpy. He does not want to share his crayons with Mia. He says they are his and he can use them all. + +Mia is sad. She wants to draw a flower, but she does not have a green crayon. She asks Ben if she can borrow his green crayon, but he says no. He says he needs it for his grass. Mia tries to talk to him, but he does not listen. He just draws more grass. + +Mia is angry. She thinks Ben is mean. She sees a black crayon on the table. She picks it up and makes a big mark on Ben's grass. She says, "There, now your grass is dirty!" + +Ben is shocked. He looks at his picture and sees the black mark. He is very mad. He yells at Mia and says, "You ruined my picture! You are a bad sister!" He grabs the black crayon and makes a big mark on Mia's flower. He says, "There, now your flower is ugly!" + +Mia is hurt. She looks at her picture and sees the black mark. She starts to cry. She says, "You are a bad brother! You hurt my feelings!" She runs to their mom and shows her the pictures. + +Mom is disappointed. She sees the marks and the tears. She says, "What happened? Why did you do this to each other?" She asks them to talk and say sorry. But Ben and Mia are still grumpy. They do not want to talk. They do not want to say sorry. They just sit and pout. +Tom and Anna were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to pretend that they were doctors and patients. Tom was the doctor and Anna was the patient. He had a stethoscope and a bandage. She had a doll and a blanket. + +"Hello, patient," Tom said. "What is wrong with you today?" + +"I have a tummy ache," Anna said. "And my doll is sick too." + +"Don't worry, patient," Tom said. "I will make you and your doll feel better. Let me listen to your heart." + +Tom put the stethoscope on Anna's chest and made a beeping sound. He smiled and said, "Your heart is good. Now let me see your doll." + +Anna handed him her doll. Tom looked at it and said, "Your doll has a fever. She needs a bandage." + +He wrapped the bandage around the doll's head and said, "There. Now your doll is fine. You just need some rest and some water." + +"Thank you, doctor," Anna said. "You are very nice." + +Tom and Anna hugged and smiled. They were happy. They put their toys on the couch and went to the kitchen to get some water. + +But when they came back, they saw something terrible. Their toys were gone. The stethoscope, the bandage, the doll, and the blanket had vanished. They looked around and saw a big hole in the window. A crow was flying away with their toys in its beak. + +"Hey, that's our toys!" Tom shouted. "Give them back!" + +But the crow did not listen. It flew higher and higher until it disappeared in the sky. + +Tom and Anna were very sad. They cried and cried. They did not understand why the crow took their toys. They were confused and angry. They had no more toys to play with. They had no more fun. They had a bad day. +Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have many cars and trucks of different colors and sizes. Tom has a big brown truck that can zoom very fast. Jen has a small red car that can make loud noises. + +One day, they decide to play a game. They want to see who can mix the most colors with their cars and trucks. They find some paint and brushes and start to paint their toys. Tom paints his truck blue and yellow. Jen paints her car green and purple. They laugh and have fun. + +But then, they see that they have no more paint left. They want to mix more colors, but they have none. They look at each other's toys and feel jealous. They want to have the other's colors. They start to argue and fight. + +"Give me your truck! I want to have green and purple!" Jen says. + +"No, it's mine! You give me your car! I want to have blue and yellow!" Tom says. + +They pull and tug at each other's toys. They are angry and sad. They forget that they are friends. + +Then, something bad happens. They pull too hard and their toys break. The wheels and doors fall off. The paint spills and stains. The toys are ruined. They look at their toys and cry. + +They wish they had not fought. They wish they had shared. They wish they had been kind. They remember that they are friends. + +They hug and say sorry. They try to fix their toys. They mix the paint and make new colors. They paint their toys with rainbow colors. They smile and have fun. + +They learn a lesson. They learn that fighting is bad. They learn that sharing is good. They learn that kindness is better than jealousy. They learn that friendship is more important than colors. They are happy. +Lily and Tom were twins who liked to watch TV. They watched cartoons, songs, and stories every day. But they were spoiled and always wanted more. They did not like to share or play with other things. + +One day, their mom said, "No more TV for today. You have watched enough. Go and play with your toys or read a book." + +Lily and Tom did not listen. They waited for their mom to go to the kitchen. Then they ran to the TV and turned it on. They smiled and sat on the couch. + +But they did not see that their dog, Spot, was chewing on the cable. Spot liked to bite things that were long and thin. He did not know that the cable was important for the TV. + +Suddenly, the TV went off. Lily and Tom were shocked. They looked at the TV and saw a black screen. They looked at the cable and saw that it was broken. They looked at Spot and saw that he was wagging his tail. + +"Spot, what did you do?" Lily questioned. She was angry and sad. + +"Bad dog! Bad dog!" Tom shouted. He was angry and sad too. + +Spot did not understand. He thought they were playing with him. He barked and jumped on them. + +Lily and Tom cried and pushed him away. They ran to their mom and told her what happened. + +Their mom was not happy. She scolded them for being spoiled and sneaky. She said they had to pay for a new cable with their pocket money. She said they had to learn to be grateful and respectful. + +Lily and Tom felt sorry. They hugged their mom and said they were sorry. They hugged Spot and said they were sorry too. They learned their lesson and decided to watch less TV and play more with their toys, books, and dog. +Lily and Ben are going on a big trip with Mom and Dad. They are very happy and excited. They pack their bags and toys and get in the car. Mom says they have to go to the airport and get on a plane. + +At the airport, they see many people and machines. Mom and Dad show their passports to a man. A passport is a book with your name and picture. The man looks at the passports and says OK. Lily and Ben want to see their passports too. Mom says they are too little to have passports. They have regular papers instead. + +Lily and Ben are sad. They want to have passports like Mom and Dad. They think passports are more fun and special. They ask Mom if they can have passports when they are big. Mom says maybe, but they have to be good and listen. Lily and Ben say they will. + +They go to a big room with many chairs and a big window. They see planes outside. The planes are very big and loud. Mom says they have to wait for their plane. Lily and Ben are bored. They want to get on the plane now. They ask Mom how long they have to wait. Mom says not long, but they have to be patient. + +Lily and Ben decide to play a game. They pretend they are kangaroos. They jump up and down and make noises. They hop around the chairs and the window. They have fun and laugh. Mom and Dad smile and watch them. They think Lily and Ben are cute and silly. + +Soon, a lady says something on a speaker. Mom says it is time to get on the plane. Lily and Ben stop jumping and follow Mom and Dad. They go to a gate and show their papers to another man. The man says OK and lets them go. They walk to a tunnel and enter the plane. They find their seats and buckle their belts. Mom says they are going to fly in the sky. Lily and Ben are amazed and happy. They can't wait to see the clouds and the stars. They think their trip is going to be awesome. +Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with a long trunk. Sara wanted to climb the trunk and see the leaves. Ben was scared of the trunk. He said, "No, Sara, it is too high. You can fall and hurt yourself." + +Sara said, "Don't be scared, Ben. I will be careful. You can hold my hand and come with me. It will be fun. Please, let me climb the trunk." + +Ben said, "Okay, Sara, but only a little bit. I don't want to go too high. And we have to come back soon. Mommy will be looking for us." + +Sara and Ben climbed the trunk together. They saw many birds and squirrels. They heard the wind and the sun. They felt happy and brave. They smiled and hugged each other. + +Then they heard Mommy calling them. They climbed down the trunk and ran to Mommy. Mommy was happy to see them. She said, "Did you have fun, Sara and Ben?" + +Sara and Ben said, "Yes, Mommy, we had fun. We climbed the trunk and saw many things. We were careful and not scared." + +Mommy said, "I'm proud of you, Sara and Ben. You are good climbers and good friends. Now, let's go home and have some yummy cookies. I baked them for you." + +Sara and Ben said, "Yay, yummy cookies! Thank you, Mommy. We love you." + +They hugged Mommy and went home. They ate the yummy cookies and told Mommy about their adventure. They were happy and tired. They went to bed and dreamed of the trunk and the park. +Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big dog named Spot who was their best friend. Spot was always hungry and liked to eat a lot of food. + +One day, their mom told them to feed Spot before they went to the park. She gave them a big bowl of dog food and a coat for Spot, because it was cold outside. She said, "Be good and don't forget to feed Spot. He needs his food and his coat to stay warm and happy." + +Ben and Mia nodded and took the bowl and the coat. But on the way to the backyard, they saw a big pile of snow. They decided to have some fun and make a snowman. They put the bowl and the coat on the ground and started to roll snowballs. + +They had so much fun that they forgot about Spot. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf, and a carrot nose. They laughed and threw snowballs at each other. They did not hear Spot barking and whining in his doghouse. + +After a while, their mom came out and saw them playing. She smiled and said, "You made a beautiful snowman. But did you feed Spot?" + +Ben and Mia looked at each other and felt guilty. They remembered the bowl and the coat that they left on the ground. They ran to the backyard and saw Spot shivering and hungry. He looked sad and angry. + +They felt sorry for Spot and hugged him. They gave him his food and his coat and said, "We're sorry, Spot. We were naughty and forgot about you. We love you and we will never do that again." + +Spot wagged his tail and licked their faces. He forgave them and ate his food. He felt warm and happy in his coat. + +Their mom came and saw them with Spot. She said, "I'm glad you fed Spot and gave him his coat. He is your friend and you have to take care of him. Next time, don't be naughty and do what I tell you. Then you can play and have fun." + +Ben and Mia nodded and said, "Yes, mom. We learned our lesson. We will be good and feed Spot first. Then we can play with him and the snowman." + +They smiled and hugged their mom and Spot. They learned that being good is better than being naughty, and that friends need love and care. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to bounce. They bounced on their beds, on the sofa, on the trampoline, and even on the floor. They bounced so much that their mom and dad sometimes got angry and told them to stop. + +One day, mom and dad had to go to the office. They said they would be back soon and asked Tom and Lily to be good and not bounce too much. They left them with a babysitter named Anna, who was very nice and let them play with their toys. + +Tom and Lily decided to bounce on the sofa while Anna was in the kitchen. They bounced higher and higher, laughing and having fun. They felt very lucky that they could bounce without mom and dad telling them to stop. + +But then, something bad happened. Tom bounced too high and hit his head on the lamp. The lamp fell down and broke with a loud crash. Tom started to cry and Lily got scared. Anna came running from the kitchen and saw the mess. + +"Oh no, what happened?" Anna asked. "Are you okay, Tom?" + +Tom nodded, still crying. Lily said, "We were bouncing on the sofa and Tom hit the lamp. We're sorry, Anna. We didn't mean to break it." + +Anna sighed and hugged them. "It's okay, I know you didn't mean to. But you have to be careful when you bounce. You could hurt yourself or break something. Next time, why don't you bounce on the trampoline outside? It's safer and more fun." + +Tom and Lily agreed and said they were sorry again. Anna cleaned up the broken lamp and put a band-aid on Tom's head. She told them not to worry and that she would explain to mom and dad what happened. She said they were still lucky that Tom was not badly hurt and that mom and dad would not be too mad. + +Tom and Lily felt better and thanked Anna. They decided to bounce on the trampoline outside and have fun until mom and dad came back. They learned their lesson and never bounced on the sofa again. +Ben and Lily were playing knights and princesses in the garden. They had a big cardboard box that they cut into a castle. They also had some paper plates that they painted to make shields. They wanted to decorate their castle and shields with stickers and glitter. + +"Look, I made a charming shield with a star and a heart!" Lily said, showing Ben her plate. + +"That's nice, but mine is better. I made a scary shield with a dragon and a sword!" Ben said, holding up his plate. + +"No, mine is better! It's pretty and shiny!" Lily said, sticking out her tongue. + +"No, mine is better! It's fierce and cool!" Ben said, making a face. + +They started to argue and push each other. They forgot to watch their castle. A gust of wind blew it over and made it fall apart. + +"Oh no, our castle!" Lily cried. + +"Our shields!" Ben shouted. + +They ran to pick up their plates, but they were too late. The stickers and glitter had fallen off and the plates were dirty and bent. + +They looked at each other and felt sad. They had ruined their game and their shields. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I shouldn't have said your shield was not good. It was charming." Ben said. + +"I'm sorry, Ben. I shouldn't have said your shield was not better. It was scary." Lily said. + +They hugged and smiled. + +"Let's make a new castle and new shields. And this time, we can decorate them together." Ben said. + +"OK, that sounds fun. And maybe we can make some crowns and swords too." Lily said. + +They went inside to get more cardboard and paper plates. They decided to be friends and share their stickers and glitter. They had a lot of fun playing knights and princesses. +Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big tree with many flowers. They smelled the flowers and heard the bees. They wanted to taste the honey. + +"Look, Ben, there is a hole in the tree. Maybe there is honey inside," Sara said. + +"Let's get it, Sara. I love honey," Ben said. + +They found a long stick and tried to reach the hole. They had to stretch a lot. The stick was fragile and broke. The bees came out of the hole. They were angry and stung Sara and Ben. + +"Ow, ow, ow, it hurts, it hurts," Sara and Ben cried. + +Mom heard them and ran to the garden. She saw the bees and the stick. She was scared and angry. + +"Sara and Ben, what have you done? You should not touch the bees or the honey. They are not for you. They are for the flowers and the tree. You are naughty and foolish. Now you have to go to the doctor and get medicine. And no more honey for you," Mom said. + +Sara and Ben were sorry and sad. They learned their lesson. They never played with the bees or the honey again. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their cart. Their cart is big and red. They can put many things in their cart. They can pull their cart with a rope. + +One day, they go to the park with their cart. They see a jolly man. The jolly man has a big hat and a big bag. He smiles at Sara and Ben. + +"Hello, little ones," the jolly man says. "Do you want to see what I have in my bag?" + +Sara and Ben nod. They are curious. They hope the jolly man has something nice for them. + +The jolly man opens his bag. He takes out many balloons. The balloons are different colors. They are shiny and round. The jolly man gives Sara and Ben each a balloon. He ties the balloons to their cart. + +"Thank you, jolly man," Sara and Ben say. They are happy. They like the balloons. + +"You're welcome, little ones," the jolly man says. "Have fun with your cart and your balloons." + +Sara and Ben wave goodbye to the jolly man. They pull their cart with their balloons. They feel like they are flying. They laugh and sing. They have a wonderful day at the park. +Lily and Ben were playing in their room. They had many toys and books to have fun with. But Lily wanted to play with Ben's new truck, and Ben wanted to play with Lily's new doll. They both said, "No, this is mine!" + +They started to fight and pull the toys from each other. They made a lot of noise and mess. Mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She was not happy. She said, "Stop fighting, you two! You need to share and be kind to each other. You are brother and sister, and you should love each other." + +But Lily and Ben did not listen. They kept fighting and crying. Mom said, "That's enough. You both need a time-out. Go to the closet and stay there until you calm down and say sorry." She took them to the closet and closed the door. + +Lily and Ben sat in the dark and felt sad and angry. They did not want to be in the closet. They did not want to say sorry. They thought it was not fair. They did not talk to each other. + +After a while, they heard Mom's voice. She said, "Are you ready to come out and talk?" Lily and Ben did not answer. Mom said, "I know you are upset, but you need to forgive each other and make up. Fighting is not good for you. It makes you unhappy and unhealthy. Sharing and being kind is good for you. It makes you happy and healthy. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Ben thought about what Mom said. They realized she was right. They did not want to be unhappy and unhealthy. They wanted to be happy and healthy. They looked at each other and felt sorry. They said, "I'm sorry, I forgive you." They hugged and smiled. + +Mom opened the door and saw them. She was happy. She said, "I'm proud of you, Lily and Ben. You did the right thing. Now, let's go back to your room and play nicely. And remember, you can always share and be kind to each other. You are brother and sister, and you should love each other." She took them to their room and gave them a kiss. Lily and Ben said, "We love you, Mom." They played with their toys and books and had fun. They were happy and healthy. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big balloon. It is red and shiny. It has a string. The balloon is floating in the air. + +"Wow, look at the balloon!" Tom says. "I want it!" + +"Me too!" Lily says. "Let's get it!" + +They run to the balloon. They both pull the string. They both want the balloon. + +"Give it to me!" Tom says. "It is mine!" + +"No, give it to me!" Lily says. "It is mine!" + +They pull harder and harder. The balloon goes up and down. They do not see the tree. + +The balloon hits the tree. Pop! The balloon bursts. The air comes out. The air is oxygen. The oxygen goes away. The balloon is gone. + +Tom and Lily are sad. They look at the string. They look at the sky. The sky is blue and distant. They do not see the balloon. + +"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily says. "I should have shared." + +"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom says. "I should have shared too." + +They hug. They are friends again. They go to play in the park. They find a new balloon. It is yellow and shiny. They share the balloon. They are happy. +Lisa loved yogurt. She ate it every day for breakfast and sometimes for a snack. She liked all kinds of yogurt: plain, fruity, creamy, crunchy. But her favorite yogurt was strawberry yogurt with little pieces of fruit inside. + +One day, Lisa went to the store with her mom. She saw a big jar of strawberry yogurt on the shelf. She wanted it very much. She asked her mom, "Can I have this yogurt, please?" + +Her mom looked at the jar and said, "No, Lisa, that yogurt is too big for you. You have enough yogurt at home. You need to behave and not ask for things you don't need." + +Lisa was sad and angry. She did not listen to her mom. She grabbed the jar and tried to run away. But the jar was too heavy for her. She dropped it on the floor and it broke. Yogurt spilled everywhere. Lisa was covered in yogurt. So was the floor and the shelf and some other people. + +Everyone looked at Lisa and the mess. They were not happy. They were mad and disgusted. Lisa felt ashamed and scared. She wished she had listened to her mom. + +Her mom came over and said, "Lisa, what did you do? This is very bad. You did not behave. You were greedy and rude. You wasted food and money and made a big mess. You need to say sorry and help clean up." + +Lisa nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, everyone. I was wrong. I don't need that yogurt. I have enough yogurt at home. I will behave and be grateful for what I have." + +She helped her mom and the store people clean up the yogurt. They were still mad, but they accepted her apology. Lisa learned her lesson. She decided to be more graceful and respectful when she wanted something. She realized that yogurt was not worth making trouble. She hugged her mom and said, "I love you, mom. Thank you for teaching me how to behave." +Lily and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a big melon on the table. They want to eat it, but they do not know how to cut it. + +"Let's measure the melon," Lily says. "Maybe we can find the middle." + +They find a ruler and a pencil. They put the ruler on the melon and draw a line with the pencil. They turn the melon and draw another line. They see where the lines cross. + +"This is the middle," Ben says. "Now we need a knife." + +They look for a knife, but they cannot find one. They see a spoon and a fork. They try to use them, but they are too weak. The melon is too hard. + +"Maybe we can ask Mom for help," Lily says. + +They go to the kitchen and find Mom. She is making a salad. + +"Mom, can you help us cut the melon?" Ben asks. + +"Sure, sweeties," Mom says. "But why did you draw on the melon?" + +"We wanted to measure it," Lily says. "We wanted to find the middle." + +Mom smiles and hugs them. She takes the melon and a knife. She cuts the melon along the lines. She gives them each a half. + +"Here you go," she says. "Enjoy your melon. It is very sweet and juicy." + +Lily and Ben thank Mom and take their melon halves. They go back to the garden and sit on the grass. They scoop out the melon with their spoons. They eat it and smile. It is very sweet and juicy. It is also very cold and refreshing. They love their melon. They love their Mom. They are happy. +Lily was a lovely girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a lot of dolls, cars, blocks and books. But her favorite toy was a soft mouse that she called Mimi. She always hugged Mimi and took her everywhere. + +One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and Mimi. She saw a boy who was crying on a bench. He had no toys to play with. Lily felt sorry for him and wanted to help. She walked up to him and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. Why are you sad?" + +The boy looked up and sniffed. He said, "I'm Ben. I'm sad because I lost my toy bear. He was my best friend. I miss him so much." + +Lily thought for a moment. She knew how it felt to love a toy. She said, "I have a toy mouse. Her name is Mimi. She is very soft and nice. Do you want to play with her?" + +Ben's eyes widened. He said, "Really? You would lend me your toy mouse? But she is your favorite toy. Are you sure?" + +Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, I'm sure. You can play with Mimi for a while. Maybe she can make you happy. But you have to be gentle with her and give her back to me later. OK?" + +Ben smiled. He said, "OK. Thank you, Lily. You are very kind. Mimi is very lovely. Can I hug her?" + +Lily smiled back. She said, "Yes, you can hug her. But don't forget to share her with me. We can be friends, too." + +Lily and Ben played with Mimi on the grass. They made her run, jump and squeak. They had a lot of fun. They also talked and laughed. They became good friends. Lily was happy that she lent Mimi to Ben. She learned that sharing can make others happy and make new friends. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a shiny gem in the grass. It is red and round and sparkles in the sun. + +"Wow, look at this!" Sara says. "It is so pretty!" + +"Can I see?" Ben asks. He takes the gem and holds it in his hand. "It is so clean!" + +They wonder where the gem came from. Maybe someone lost it. Maybe it is magic. Maybe it is a treasure. + +"Let's plan a game with it," Sara says. "We can pretend we are pirates and this is our loot." + +"Or we can pretend we are kings and queens and this is our crown," Ben says. + +"Or we can pretend we are spies and this is our secret code," Sara says. + +They have many ideas. They are very excited. They run to the slide and the swings and the sandbox. They take turns with the gem and make up stories. + +They have so much fun with the gem. They forget about the time. They forget about their moms. They forget about everything else. They only think about the gem and their game. They are happy. +Lily and Ben were playing with blocks in the living room. They liked to make tall stacks of different colors and shapes. Lily was very good at balancing the blocks, but Ben sometimes knocked them over by accident. + +"Look, Ben, I made a stack as high as me!" Lily said, standing next to her creation. "Can you do that?" + +Ben wanted to try, but he was not sure how to start. He picked up a block and put it on the floor. Then he picked up another block and put it on top of the first one. He repeated this until he had four blocks in a row. + +"That's not a stack, Ben, that's a line!" Lily said, laughing. "A stack goes up, not across. Here, let me show you." + +Lily took one of Ben's blocks and placed it on top of another one. Then she took another block and placed it on top of the first two. She smiled and said, "See, Ben, this is a stack. It goes up, up, up!" + +Ben nodded and tried to copy Lily. He took a block and put it on top of his line. Then he took another block and put it on top of that. He was happy when he saw his stack grow taller. + +"Good job, Ben, you're doing great!" Lily said, clapping her hands. "Let's see how high we can make our stacks!" + +They continued to add more blocks to their stacks, until they heard a voice from the kitchen. + +"Kids, time for lunch!" Grandma said, coming into the living room. Grandma was elderly, but she was very kind and loved to cook for Lily and Ben. She smiled when she saw their stacks of blocks. + +"Wow, you two are very creative!" Grandma said, admiring their work. "Did you have fun playing with the blocks?" + +"Yes, Grandma, we did!" Lily and Ben said, running to hug her. "We made stacks as high as us!" + +"That's wonderful, my dears!" Grandma said, hugging them back. "But now you need to eat something, too. I made your favorite soup and sandwiches. Come on, let's go to the table." + +Lily and Ben followed Grandma to the kitchen, leaving their stacks of blocks behind. They knew they could play with them again later, after they finished their lunch. They loved playing with blocks, and they loved Grandma, too. +Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the kitchen. They have pots and pans and spoons and cups. They pretend to cook and eat. + +One day, Mom gives them a big apple. She says, "You can share this apple. But be careful with the knife. It is sharp. It can cut you." + +Tom and Lily say, "Okay, Mom. We will be careful." They take the apple and the knife to the kitchen. They put the apple on a plate. Tom says, "I will cut the apple. You can watch me." + +Tom holds the knife and tries to cut the apple. But the knife is too big and heavy for him. He slips and cuts his finger. He drops the knife and the apple. He cries, "Ow! Ow! Ow! It hurts!" + +Lily sees Tom's finger. It is red and bleeding. She feels sorry for him. She says, "Don't cry, Tom. I will help you." She runs to Mom and says, "Mom, Tom cut his finger. He needs a band-aid." + +Mom comes to the kitchen. She sees Tom and the apple and the knife. She says, "Oh, no. What happened?" She picks up Tom and hugs him. She says, "You are brave, Tom. But you should not use the knife. It is dangerous. Let me clean your finger and put a band-aid on it." + +She takes Tom to the bathroom. She washes his finger and puts a band-aid on it. She kisses him and says, "There. All better. Now you can play again. But no more knives, okay?" + +Tom says, "Okay, Mom. Thank you. I'm sorry." He smiles and hugs Mom. + +Lily follows them. She says, "I'm sorry, too, Mom. Can we still have the apple?" + +Mom says, "Of course, you can. But I will cut it for you. Come on, let's go back to the kitchen. You can have half of the apple each. And you can be playful with something else. How about some stickers and paper?" + +Tom and Lily say, "Yes, Mom. That sounds fun. We love stickers and paper." They go back to the kitchen. They eat the apple and play with the stickers and paper. They are happy and careful. Mom watches them and smiles. +Lily and Max were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Lily wore a pink apron with flowers on it. Max wore a blue apron with stars on it. + +"Let's make a cake!" Lily said. "We need flour, eggs, milk, and sugar." + +"OK!" Max said. "I will get the flour. You get the eggs." + +They opened the cupboard and took out the things they needed. They put them on the table. They also found a big bowl and a wooden spoon. + +"Ready, set, go!" Lily said. "Let's shoot the flour into the bowl!" + +She grabbed the bag of flour and squeezed it hard. A cloud of white dust came out of the bag and flew into the air. It covered the table, the floor, and Lily's face. + +"Wow!" Max said. "That was fun! Let me try!" + +He took the bag of flour from Lily and squeezed it harder. Another cloud of white dust came out of the bag and flew into the air. It covered the chairs, the window, and Max's face. + +They laughed and laughed. They looked like snowmen. + +"Hey, what are you doing?" Mom said. She came into the kitchen and saw the mess. She was not happy. She wore a regular apron with no flowers or stars on it. + +"Sorry, Mom," Lily and Max said. "We were making a cake." + +"A cake?" Mom said. "This is not how you make a cake. This is how you make a disaster. Come on, let's clean up this mess. And then we can make a real cake together. OK?" + +"OK, Mom," Lily and Max said. They took off their aprons and helped Mom wipe the flour off everything. They learned a new word: shoot. They also learned that shooting flour was not a good idea. +Sam is a boy who likes to help his dad. His dad is a milkman. He delivers milk to many houses every morning. Sam goes with his dad in the big truck. He holds the bottles and gives them to his dad. + +One day, Sam sees a cat on the road. The cat is black and white and has a bell on its collar.

"We have to deliver the milk!" + +But Sam does not hear his dad. He follows the cat to a garden. The garden has many flowers and a fence. The cat jumps over the fence. Sam tries to jump over the fence too. But he is too small. He falls and hurts his knee. He cries. + +"Sam, where are you?" his dad calls. He stops the truck and looks for Sam. He sees Sam in the garden. He runs to him and picks him up. He sees the blood on his knee. He hugs him and says, "Are you okay, Sam?" + +Sam nods. He feels guilty. He says, "I'm sorry, dad. I wanted to pet the cat. I forgot the milk." + +His dad smiles. He says, "It's okay, Sam. I'm glad you're not hurt. But next time, listen to me and stay in the truck. The cat is not our friend. The milk is our job." + +Sam says, "I understand, dad. I won't chase the cat again. Can we deliver the milk now?" + +His dad says, "Yes, we can. But first, let me clean your knee and put a band-aid on it. Then we can finish our route and go home." + +Sam says, "Thank you, dad. I love you." + +His dad says, "I love you too, Sam. You're a good boy. And a good helper." +Tom was a very intelligent boy. He liked to read books and learn new things. He also liked to play with his dog, Rex, in the yard. One day, he saw a big red ball on the porch of his neighbor, Mr. Jones. He wanted to play with it. + +"Rex, let's go get the ball!" he said to his dog. "It looks so fun!" + +But Rex barked and shook his head. He knew that Mr. Jones was a mean man. He did not like children or dogs. He often yelled at them and threw rocks at them. He had a sign on his porch that said "Keep Out". + +"Rex, don't be silly!" Tom said. "It's just a ball. Mr. Jones won't mind. Come on!" + +He ran to the porch and grabbed the ball. Rex followed him, but he was scared. He tried to warn Tom, but it was too late. Mr. Jones heard the noise and came out of his house. He was very angry. + +"Hey, you little thief!" he shouted. "How dare you take my ball! That's mine!" + +He grabbed Tom by the collar and dragged him inside his house. He slammed the door behind him. Rex heard Tom scream and cry. He wanted to help him, but he could not. He ran back to his yard and waited for Tom's mom to come home. + +Tom's mom came home and saw Rex alone. She was worried. She asked Rex where Tom was. Rex barked and pointed to Mr. Jones' house. She understood and ran to the porch. She knocked on the door, but no one answered. She called the police. + +The police came and broke the door. They found Tom in a dark room. He was tied to a chair and had bruises on his face. He was very scared and sad. Mr. Jones was arrested and taken away. Tom's mom hugged him and took him home. She was very angry and sad too. + +Tom learned a hard lesson that day. He learned that he should listen to his dog, who was his friend and wanted to protect him. He learned that he should not take things that did not belong to him. He learned that he should not go to places that were not safe. He learned that being intelligent was not enough. He also had to be careful and respectful. +Lily liked to learn new things with her tutor, Miss Kay. Miss Kay was very nice and helped Lily with reading, writing and counting.

Bnat had never seen anything better! + +Her curiosity had been rewarded. Bnat had discovered a wonderful place that seemed so good for her. She could play all day long, and have a blast! + +Since then, Bnat has never been able to find the exit again. But every time she looks for it, she remembers the fun she had that day, and just how good it felt. +Once upon a time, there was a family of four who lived together in a happy home. Mommy and Daddy were very friendly people and they both loved music. They always listened to their music together, especially the violin. + +One day, Daddy brought a special surprise home. It was a very special violin. Mommy and Daddy smiled and said, "this is going to be a lot of fun!". The little 3 year old boy was so excited he started to rock back and forth on his feet. + +Mommy said, "It's time for you to learn how to play this friendly instrument. You can start today". + +Daddy helped the little boy hold the violin properly and showed him how to play the notes. It was hard for the little boy at first, but he soon started to get the hang of it. After a few days of practice, the boy was actually making beautiful music with the violin. + +The whole family was so proud of him and were so happy that he was so passionate about the music. The little boy had a big smile beaming from his face and said, "I love you Mommy, Daddy and my violin". +Once upon a time there was a little girl called Lucy. She was three years old and loved to explore the world. One day, she was walking in the woods and saw a big pool. Lucy's eyes lit up and she got excited. + +She ran to the edge of the pool. Lucy could see it was filled with lots of colourful things. She suddenly had an urge to stir the pool. Lucy kneeled down and started to stir the pool with her hands. + +Suddenly, there was a flash of light! Lucy looked down and couldn't believe her eyes. She had made an incredible discovery! In the pool, she found a pot of gold coins! + +Lucy was so happy and jumped up and down with joy. Another little girl heard the sound and came over to join in the excitement. + +The little girl said, "Wow! Incredible! How did you find this?" + +Lucy said, "I was curious and decided to stir the pool. It's amazing what you can find when you use your curiosity!" + +The two girls smiled at each other and decided to share the golden coins. Moral of the story: Curiosity leads to amazing discoveries! +One day, while playing outdoors, Linda saw it was beginning to rain. She ran to the stair and asked her mom if they could take shelter inside. Her mom said yes and they ran together until they were safe. + +Linda and her mom went inside and Linda watched the gentle rain falling from the window. Then Linda's mom said, "It's cold, let's make some hot tea." + +So Linda helped her mom make tea and then the two of them drank it together and talked about the rain. Linda said, "The rain is so gentle. I just want to keep watching the raindrops." Her mom smiled and said, "It's ok, sweetie, we can stay here and watch the rain until it's sunny again." + +And so this is what Linda and her mom did and when it was sunny again, they went outside and the rain was gone. But the gentle rain had given Linda a beautiful memory and she was happy. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl. She was so little that she was only three years old. Her name was Lily. + +One day, Lily wanted to go to the park. She asked her mom if she could go. Her mom said, "Yes, but take this rag with you. If you get dirty, you can use it to clean off." + +Lily took the rag and skipped over to the park, laughing with joy. She saw an old man in the park who was deaf. He couldn't hear anything. She waved to him and tried to shout, but he couldn't understand her. + +Lily felt so disappointed. She didn't know how to make him understand. Then she had an idea. She pulled the rag out of her pocket and waved it in the air. She hoped that the old man could see the rag and understand that she wanted to be his friend. + +The old man smiled and waved back. He could see the rag and he knew what Lily wanted. He had made a friend. + +The end. +Once upon a time, there were two best friends. They were both tired, but they were always willing to do something fun together. + +One day, the two friends wanted to do something special. They decided to replace their boring picture frame with a new one. + +The two friends both excitedly went to the store. They looked at all the frames and chose one with a fun print. They felt so pleased with their new frame. + +After they got home, they hung their special frame on the wall. They both felt excited to see it in their room. + +But, then the next morning when they woke up, they saw that someone had replaced the frame with an old and boring one. + +The two friends were so sad and angry. They thought, who could have done this? + +When their mother came home, the two friends asked her. Their mother explained that she had replaced the frame because she wanted the two friends to learn an important lesson. She said that if they wanted to have something special in their lives, they must take good care of it and not take it for granted. + +The two friends thought about this carefully and vowed to remember this lesson for forever. +"Mama, where's the baby?" exclaimed the 3 year old girl, eagerly awaiting the answer. +Mama smiled and said, "It's in its cradle. Do you want to go and see it?" +The girl nodded her head excitedly and ran to the cradle. When she saw the little baby, she felt a powerful feeling of love. She gently stroked its tiny head and knew she needed to take care of it. +"Come here, my baby," she said softly. +The little girl gently picked up the baby and rocked it gently in her arms. She could feel the powerful connection between them, and she knew she would always need to look after the baby. +Bob was feeling lazy. He was lying down on the floor and stretching his arms. His Mama saw him and said, “Bob, why don’t you go and get some fresh air? It will make you feel more healthy.†+ +Bob agreed and jumped up.

He walked closer and started to stretch his arms and legs, so that he could touch the truck. + +Suddenly, he heard a voice. He looked up and saw a man in the truck. The man said, “Hi Bob, you look strong and healthy. Would you like to go for a ride in my truck?†+ +Bob was happy. He ran around to the other side of the truck, opened the door and said, “Yes please!†He got into the truck, waved goodbye to his Mama and was off for a fun ride. +Once upon a time, there was a fierce dragon named Stan. Stan had a precious gem that shone brightly. One day, a brave knight named Norm came riding up to Stan. Norm asked Stan if he could borrow the gem. Stan replied, "No way! This gem is too special to me." + +Norm begged and pleaded, but Stan didn't reply. Norm decided to try a different approach. He asked Stan to have a friendly game of chess. Stan replied, "That sounds like fun!" They played the game, and although Stan was a fierce player, Norm eventually won. + +As a reward, Stan gave Norm the precious gem. Norm thanked Stan and promised to take good care of it. Stan replied, "Thank you for being a friendly knight!" Norm waved goodbye and rode off on his horse, with the gem in his pocket. + +The End. +Once upon a time there was a small chest. It was a special chest and it belonged to a girl named Sarah. Sarah's chest was very special because it held a secret. + +Every morning Sarah would go to her chest and observe it. She wanted to make sure that her secret was still safe. She never let anyone else near her chest. + +One day, Sarah's best friend Jonny came over to visit. He asked Sarah what was in the chest. Sarah smiled and told him that it was her secret. She wouldn't tell him what it was. + +Jonny got very curious. He kept trying to open the chest, but Sarah stopped him each time. + +A few weeks later, Sarah and Jonny met up again at the park. Jonny asked Sarah if he could finally see her secret. Sarah smiled and told him yes. She then opened the chest to reveal a puppy inside. It was small and cute and Jonny was so excited. + +Jonny was so happy that Sarah let him see her secret. He then thanked her for trusting him. Sarah felt good because she knew she had done the right thing by letting Jonny see her secret. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Anna. Anna worried a lot, but she was happy and nice. + +One day, Anna was walking through the park. Suddenly, she heard a sound. It was a very strong sound like somebody singing. Anna looked around but she couldn't see anyone. Then, she saw something in the sky. + +It was an angel with big wings. She was very beautiful and she had a spicy smell. The angel was singing a song to make Anna happy and not worry. The angel sang and danced and Anna laughed and smiled. + +Anna was happy and didn't worry anymore.

It was so big she thought it came from the grocery store. + +Suddenly, a voice behind her said, "Oh, that's my potato". Bonny jumped, it was the old lady who lived down the street. She said that her Grandfather had grown the potato in his garden. + +Bonny felt embarrassed and said, "Sorry, I was just admiring it". But the old lady was not happy, and said, "You should not be so nosy and take things that do not belong to you." + +Bonny was humiliated and ran away, never to be seen again. The old lady was relieved that she had been saved from the nosy little girl. She hugged her potato and went back inside. + +From then on, the old lady was always much more careful about who she let into her garden. +Once upon a time there was a little girl called Jo. Jo was very enthusiastic and loved to write. Every day after school, she would go to her bedroom and write stories. + +One night, Jo was writing when she heard a special sound.

"Hello", said the fairy. "I need your help. Can you help me write a message under the tree?" + +Jo was so happy to help the fairy and she quickly said yes. She grabbed her pen and paper and began to write a message. When she had finished, she showed the fairy the message. + +"Thank you so much," said the fairy. "You're a very enthusiastic writer." The fairy gave Jo a kiss on the forehead and flew away. + +From that day on, Jo would write stories every day, and occasionally she'd check under the tree for the fairy's messages. Jo and the fairy became the best of friends. +Once upon a time, there lived a silly rabbit. He lived in a warm and cozy home in the middle of a forest. The rabbit loved to jump and play around all day. + +One day, the sky became dark, and a storm was coming. The rabbit panicked and ran out of his home. He shouted, "Oh, no! What do I do? Where can I go?" + +Suddenly, he had an idea! He hopped to the nearby riverbank, and he smiled. He knew that the river would never melt in a storm. + +The rabbit said to himself, "Yes! I can stay safe here!" He hopped in the river and stayed until the storm was over. When the storm was gone, the silly rabbit hopped back home, happy and safe. +Once upon a time there was a nosy flea. She loved exploring and trying new things. One day she wanted to visit the beach, so she hopped on her little buggy and drove off. + +Once she got to the beach, the Flea was so excited to explore! She saw the ocean and the sand and the birds, she even spotted a few fish in the water. + +But then something unexpected happened- the Flea spotted a big, purple dragon! The dragon had a scary face and big wings and the Flea was so scared she started to cry. + +"What's wrong little Flea?" the dragon asked. + +"I'm scared because you look so fierce," the Flea replied. + +The dragon smiled and said, "I'm not fierce at all, I'm just a bit nosy and wanted to say hello. Don't worry little Flea, I won't hurt you." + +The Flea smiled, dried her tears and thanked the dragon. After that, the Flea and the Dragon spent a wonderful day together exploring the beach.

She asked her mom, "What can I do here?" + +Her mom smiled and said, "You can jump around the pit. You can make it fun." + +Molly started jumping and running around the pit. She felt so happy and excited. The sun was so bright and it made her feel so warm. + +Molly's mom watched her, laughing and smiling. Eventually, Molly was too tired to jump any more.

She was three years old and very curious. One day, her mommy lead her to the park. Lucy was excited because she loved going to the park. + +When they got there, Lucy saw a big playground. She hopped off to explore and found a lollipop on the ground. She was so excited and quickly grabbed it. + +But when she looked up, she saw her mommy walking away. Lucy got a bit frustrated and tried to catch up, but it was hard! She felt a bit scared, but kept walking and following her mommy. + +Eventually, Lucy caught up with her mommy.

But when she opened the cupboard she saw the mail had gone! She was so sad and angry. She searched everywhere, but the mail was nowhere to be found. + +The girl was so sad and frustrated. She wanted to know who had taken her mail. She decided to plan a way to trap the thief. She set out a few things that would only be useful to the thief. + +At last, the thief was caught!

Chirpy lived on a farm and everyday she woke up early in the morning to catch the sunrise. She thought it was ever so pretty! + +One day, Chirpy noticed something was a bit different about the sunrise that morning. The sun was rising faster than usual. Chirpy clucked to herself and said, “I wonder why the sunrise is so fast today.†+ +Assuming nothing of the sun’s behaviour, Chirpy continued to grow bigger and bigger each day from eating her food and drinking fresh water. Eventually, Chirpy became so big that she grew too heavy to move! + +Thankfully, Chirpy’s farmer was very wise. He quickly realised why the sun was rising so fast; it was warning him that it was time to harvest the crops before they spoiled! + +The moral of this story is that change can be a good thing. Even though it might seem hard to accept at first, learning to grow and go with the flow of change can lead to something new and wonderful. +Once upon a time there was an old dog who lived in a meadow. He loved to lay in the warm sunshine and roll around in the grass. + +One day the old dog saw a butterfly flying in the sky with a zigzag pattern. Even though he was old, he was feeling quite energetic and so he raced after the butterfly. + +"Wait for me!" the old dog barked.

He watched the butterfly flying around in zigzag patterns until it flew away into the sunset. + +The old dog sighed and said, "Oh, well. That was fun." Then he got up and trotted back to his meadow. +As Sarah looked up in the sky, she spotted an arrow rushes across. She was happy and excited, so she smiled and waved her hands. + +"Look, Mommy! Up in the sky!" She exclaimed. + +Mommy looked up and smiled, "Yes! I see it, my darling. That's an arrow". + +Sarah began to giggle and jumped up and down with excitement. She rushed out to the garden. + +She calmed herself and stood still. She spread her arms wide and made a wish. + +The arrow flew by and she wished for a present from the arrow fairies. + +Suddenly, Sarah heard a small voice from above, "Granted!" + +The arrow fairy smiled and vanished into the sky. + +Sarah beamed with delight and ran back inside to look for her present. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Sue. She loved to explore her world and go on adventures. One day, she decided to enter her Grandmother's house. When Sue opened the door, she saw something very interesting.

"It plays music and sounds from other places. Go ahead and try it!" + +Sue was very excited to have her own radio. She turned the buttons and dials until she heard music. She was so happy she started to dance around the room. From that day on, Sue took her radio wherever she went, always playing her favorite songs. +Once upon a time, there was a little flea. He was super tiny but very busy. Every day, the flea would be running around, here and there. He liked being fast and thinking he was always in control of his life. + +One day, the flea was running and running, when he looked around and noticed he was lost. He turned left, he turned right, he looked up and he went down, but he couldn't find his way back home.

Suddenly, the flea heard a voice coming from the bush. It was a tiny voice, but it was so calm and peaceful. The voice said: “Little flea, rest here a while and you will find your way home.†+ +So, the flea decided to stay and rest. After a while he heard his family calling his name and he was able to follow their voices to find his way home. + +The moral of the story is that sometimes it is ok to rest and take a break. Being in a hurry and messy can lead you to be lost and tired. +Once upon a time there was a green frog. He was hopping around his pond when he heard a sound. He stopped and listened. It was a letter coming to him in the post! He jumped onto the bank and waited. + +The letter arrived in a big brown envelope. He hopped over to it and opened the envelope with his hands.

They stopped to admire the flowers and the pretty trees. The girl squealed with delight at all of the pretty things they saw. + +The father said, "Let's go see some more things." The girl nodded enthusiastically and they continued on. + +At the end of the tour, the family was very tired but happy. The father said, "You were so gentle and patient today. Good job!"

All of a sudden, the toy started to shake and even made a loud noise. Boris was scared, he dropped the toy and ran away as fast as he could. + +When Boris had calmed down, he asked his Mom why the toy had scared him. His Mom smiled and said "Boris, toys can only scare you if you let them.

He saw a big hill off in the distance and ran over there to check it out. + +When the bear reached the top, he saw a giant slide all the way down the hill. He was so excited!

He was looking for something fun to do. + +Suddenly he saw something hidden under a bush. It was round and bouncy. "Oh, this must be fun!" said Bertie. + +He hopped over and picked it up. He started to bounce it around the track. + +"This is so fun!" he shouted. + +Suddenly, the hidden bouncy thing made a loud bang. Bertie shut his eyes tight. He was scared. + +When he opened his eyes he saw that the bouncy thing had broken. Bertie was sad. He put the broken bits back down on the track and left. He never found out what the hidden bouncy thing was. +One dark night there was a knock at the door. Mama went to answer it and there was a man. The man said he had some news. He whispered in Mama's ear, but then he passed along. + +Mama ran inside to find her daughter. "Darling," she said, "something special is going to happen. In three days, you'll be getting a new little brother or sister!" + +Her daughter couldn't believe it. She clapped her hands and shouted in joy, "A new little brother or sister!" + +Three days later, the sun was shining bright. Mama and Papa came home with a baby. It was their new little brother! The family was so happy and pleased to pass on the news of their new addition. From that day forward, the house was filled with joy and love. +John and Jane went to the park one day. Jane saw a beautiful flower. She looked at it for a very long time and admired its beauty.

The fox didn't even say hello when he saw them. He just stood there, with his arms crossed. + +The rabbit and cat were confused and scared. The rabbit knew they should walk away, so he whispered to the cat to get back on his back. They hopped away, never looking back. + +The moral of the story is to always be kind to others, no matter how different they may seem. Even if someone is rude, you have the power to stay away and make the right choice. Always remember, kindness is key! +Jack was a charming 3 year old boy.

His mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can, David. But you must be careful. You will need to carry it slowly." + +David nodded. He took the open chair and started to carry it. He was careful not to trip, or the chair could break. After a few moments, he made it home and put the chair in the living room. + +Now, David had a place to sit while he played! He was so proud of himself for bringing it home. He smiled and said, "Look, Mom! I brought the chair home!" + +His mom smiled and said, "You did a great job, David!" +Once upon a time, there were two friends - Jack and Sam. + +Jack always wanted Sam to play with him, but Sam was very busy.

He was going to the park for the first time. + +Mom said, "Put on your orange shoes. We're going to the park!" + +When they got to the park, Jimmy saw a big orange slide.

She opens it and sees her neighbor, Mrs. Lee. Mrs. Lee is an old lady who lives next door. She is very nosy. She always asks Sara and her mom many questions. + +"Hello, Sara," Mrs. Lee says. "What are you and your mom doing?" + +"We are doing yoga," Sara replies. "Yoga is when you make shapes with your body and breathe slowly." + +"Yoga?" Mrs. Lee says. "That sounds strange. Why do you do that?" + +"Because it is fun and good for us," Sara replies. "Do you want to try?" + +Mrs. Lee shakes her head. "No, thank you. I don't like to make shapes with my body. I like to sit and watch TV. That is fun and good for me." + +Sara thinks Mrs. Lee is silly. She likes to make shapes with her body. She says goodbye to Mrs. Lee and closes the door. She runs back to her mom and makes another bridge shape. She smiles and breathes slowly. She likes to do yoga with her mom. +Lily and Max liked to play pretend. They liked to pretend they were grown-ups and had a big house and a car and a dog. One day, they decided to pretend they were getting married. They found some old clothes and a ring and a flower in the attic. They put on the clothes and the ring and the flower and went to the garden. + +In the garden, they saw a big tree. They said the tree was their church. They stood under the tree and said some words they heard on TV. They said, "I do" and "You may kiss the bride" and "Hooray". They were very happy. They pretended to drive away in their car and waved to their friends. + +But there was someone who was not happy. It was Molly, the nosy cat. Molly liked to watch Lily and Max play, but she did not like to share. She wanted to have the ring and the flower and the clothes. She sneaked up to the attic and found the ring and the flower and the clothes. She grabbed them with her paws and ran away. + +Lily and Max came back from their pretend trip. They wanted to play some more. They went to the attic to get their things. But they could not find them. They looked everywhere. They were very sad. They wondered who took their things. + +They heard a noise outside. They looked out the window. They saw Molly, the nosy cat. She was wearing the ring and the flower and the clothes. She also had a mitten on her head. She looked very silly. She was trying to pretend she was getting married too. But she had no one to marry. She was alone. + +Lily and Max laughed. They said, "That is our nosy cat. She took our things. She is very naughty. But she is also very funny. Let's go and get our things back. And maybe we can let her play with us. But only if she says sorry and shares." They ran outside and chased Molly, the nosy cat. Molly ran away, but she dropped the things. Lily and Max got their things back. They were very happy. They said, "We are still married. And we have a nosy cat. She is our friend. But she needs to learn some manners." They hugged and kissed and played some more. And Molly, the nosy cat, watched them and learned. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks. They make towers with the blocks. They study the towers and see how tall they can make them. + +One day, they make a very big tower. It is taller than Sara and Ben. They are happy and proud. They want to show their tower to their teacher. + +"Look, teacher, look at our tower!" Sara says. + +"Wow, that is a very big tower!" the teacher says. "You worked hard and studied well. How did you make it so tall?" + +"We used all the blocks," Ben says. "We put them on top of each other. We made sure they were balanced and strong." + +"That is very smart," the teacher says. "You used your math and science skills. Your tower is cute and impressive. Can I take a picture of it?" + +"Yes, please!" Sara and Ben say. They smile and pose next to their tower. They are happy and proud. They like to play with blocks. They like to study and learn. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their toys. Lily had a doll and Ben had a car. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving or talking. + +"Look at my car, Lily!" Ben said. "It is fast and red and shiny. I can make it go vroom vroom!" + +Lily looked at Ben's car and smiled. She liked cars too, but she liked her doll more. She hugged her doll and said, "Your car is nice, Ben. But my doll is pretty and soft and sweet. I can make her say hello hello!" + +They played for a while, until they saw a big vehicle coming down the road. It was a fire truck, with a ladder and a hose and a siren. It was loud and bright and exciting. + +"Wow!" Ben said. "Look at that vehicle, Lily! It is a fire truck. It can put out fires and save people. I admire the firemen who drive it. They are brave and strong and helpful. I want to be a fireman when I grow up!" + +Lily looked at the fire truck and nodded. She admired the firemen too, but she had a different dream. She said, "The fire truck is cool, Ben. But I want to be a baker when I grow up. I want to make yummy cakes and pies and cookies. They are delicious and colorful and fun. I can make them say yum yum!" + +They watched the fire truck pass by, then they went back to their toys. They were happy and curious and imaginative. They liked different things, but they were good friends. They shared their dreams and their toys and their smiles. +Lily liked to bounce on her bed. She bounced up and down, up and down, with a big smile on her face. She liked to pretend she was a kangaroo or a frog or a ball. + +One day, she saw a new thing on her dad's desk. It was a microscope. It looked like a big metal eye with a long neck and a round base. Lily was curious. She wanted to see what it could do. + +She climbed on a chair and reached for the microscope. She turned the knob and looked through the eye. She saw a tiny world with many colors and shapes. She saw a bug with many legs and a hairy body. She saw a flower with many dots and lines. She saw a drop of water with many bubbles and swirls. + +She was amazed. She said, "Wow! This is so cool! I can see so many things!" + +But then, she heard a loud voice behind her. It was her dad. He said, "Lily! What are you doing? That's my microscope! You can't touch it! It's very delicate and expensive!" + +Lily was scared. She dropped the microscope and jumped off the chair. She ran to her bed and hid under the covers. She said, "I'm sorry, dad! I didn't mean to break it! I just wanted to see!" + +Her dad was angry. He picked up the microscope and checked if it was damaged. He said, "Lily, you have to be more careful. You can't play with things that are not yours. You could have hurt yourself or ruined the microscope. Do you understand?" + +Lily nodded. She said, "I understand, dad. I won't do it again. Can you forgive me?" + +Her dad sighed. He said, "Yes, I forgive you. But you have to promise me to ask me first before you touch anything on my desk. OK?" + +Lily said, "OK, dad. I promise. Can I hug you?" + +Her dad smiled. He said, "Of course, you can. Come here, my little explorer." + +He hugged her and kissed her on the forehead. He said, "I love you, Lily. And I'm glad you're curious about the world. But you have to be safe and respectful too. OK?" + +Lily said, "OK, dad. I love you too. And thank you for showing me the microscope. It's very amazing." + +They hugged again and then went to the living room to watch a show about animals. Lily learned more about kangaroos and frogs and balls. And she still liked to bounce on her bed. But only when her dad was not around. +Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play chess with their dad. Chess is a game with black and white pieces. You have to move them on a board with squares. You have to be smart and careful. + +One night, Tim and Sam see a big box in the living room. It has a picture of a chess board on it. But the pieces are not black and white. They are red and blue. And they glow in the dark! + +"Dad, what is this?" Tim asks. + +"This is a special chess set. It is a gift from your uncle. He lives far away. He likes to invent things. He made this chess set for you. Do you want to try it?" Dad says. + +"Yes, yes, yes!" Tim and Sam say. + +Dad opens the box and sets up the board and the pieces. He turns off the light. The pieces glow like stars. Tim and Sam are amazed. They want to touch them. + +"Be careful. The pieces are fragile. They have batteries inside. If you break them, they will not glow anymore. And you have to follow the rules of chess. You cannot move them any way you want. Do you remember the rules?" Dad says. + +Tim and Sam nod. They remember some of the rules. But they are anxious. They do not want to make a mistake. They do not want to lose. They do not want to break the pieces. + +Dad teaches them how to play. He shows them how each piece can move. He helps them when they are stuck. He praises them when they do well. He makes it fun. + +Tim and Sam enjoy playing chess with their dad. They like the glowing pieces. They feel smart and careful. They forget to be anxious. They smile and laugh. They love their dad. They love their uncle. They love their chess set. +Lisa loved to watch the planes in the sky. She liked how they made loud noises and flew very fast. She wanted to go on a plane one day and see new places. She asked her mom if they could go on a plane. + +"Maybe someday, honey," her mom said. "But planes are very expensive and we have to save money for other things." + +Lisa was sad. She did not understand why they could not go on a plane. She thought it was not fair. She started to weep and cry. + +Her mom hugged her and tried to make her feel better. She said, "I know you want to go on a plane, Lisa, but we have other ways to have fun. Why don't we go to the park and play with your friends? Maybe you will see some planes there too." + +Lisa wiped her tears and nodded. She liked the park and her friends. She hoped to see some planes there. She said, "Okay, mom, let's go to the park. Maybe I will find an attractive plane there. One that is shiny and colorful and has a smiley face." + +Her mom smiled and said, "Maybe you will, Lisa. Maybe you will." They got ready and went to the park. Lisa looked up at the sky and hoped to see an attractive plane. She felt a little better. She still wanted to go on a plane one day, but she was happy to have her mom and her friends. +Sam likes to look at pictures. He has many pictures on his wall. He has pictures of animals, cars, and stars. He likes to lean on his bed and see the pictures. + +One day, Sam sees a new picture on his wall. It is a picture of a man. The man has no hair on his head. He is bald. Sam does not know who the man is. He asks his mom. + +Mom says, "That is your grandpa. He is my dad. He loves you very much. He is bald because he is old. He is smiling because he is happy." + +Sam smiles too. He likes his grandpa. He wants to meet him. He leans closer to the picture and says, "Hi, grandpa. I love you too." +Jen and Tom were restless. They did not want to nap. They wanted to play outside. But Mom said no. It was too cold and wet. + +"Let's sneak out," Jen whispered to Tom. "We can go to the farm and see the animals." + +Tom nodded. He liked the farm. He liked the cows and the pigs and the chickens. He liked the farmer too. He gave them carrots sometimes. + +They put on their coats and boots and hats. They opened the door quietly. They ran to the farm. They saw the animals. They said hello to them. + +"Look, carrots!" Jen said. She saw a big pile of orange roots. She ran to them. She picked one up. She bit it. It was sweet and crunchy. + +"Yum, me too!" Tom said. He ran to the pile. He picked one up. He bit it. He smiled. + +But the farmer did not smile. He saw the children. He was angry. He shouted at them. + +"Hey, you! What are you doing? Those are my carrots! You are stealing from me!" + +He ran to them. He grabbed them by their coats. He dragged them to his house. He called their mom. + +Mom came to the farm. She was very mad. She scolded Jen and Tom. She said they were naughty and rude. She said they had to say sorry to the farmer. She said they had to pay for the carrots. She said they had to go home and nap. She said they had no more play time for a week. + +Jen and Tom cried. They said sorry to the farmer. They gave him their money. They went home with Mom. They napped. They were sad. + +The moral of the story is: Do not steal from others. Do not disobey your mom. Do not be restless when you should nap. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they go to the toy store with their moms. Anna sees a big doll with a pink dress. She wants the doll very much. She asks her mom to buy it for her. + +"Mom, can I have this doll? Please, please, please!" Anna begs. + +"Sorry, Anna, we don't have enough money for that doll. Maybe another time," her mom says. + +Anna feels sad. She looks at Ben. Ben has a small car in his hand. He smiles at Anna. + +"Look, Anna, I have a new car. It is fast and shiny. Do you want to play with it?" Ben asks. + +Anna nods. She takes the car from Ben. She likes the car. She thinks it is better than the doll. She puts the car in her pocket. + +"Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend," Anna says. + +Ben does not see what Anna does. He thinks Anna gave him back the car. He goes to the cashier with his mom. He pays for the car. He looks for Anna. + +"Anna, where are you? Let's go home," Ben calls. + +Anna hears Ben. She feels guilty. She knows she did a bad thing. She took Ben's car. She did not own the car. It was Ben's piece. She wants to give it back. But she is afraid. She is afraid Ben will be angry. She is afraid her mom will be angry. She is afraid the store will be angry. + +She runs to her mom. She holds her mom's hand. She does not say anything. + +"Are you ready, Anna? Did you have fun?" her mom asks. + +Anna nods. She does not look at Ben. She does not look at the car. She wants to forget. She wants to go home. She hopes Ben will not find out. She hopes the car will not make noise. She hopes no one will see. She feels very guilty. +Tom and Mia were playing with their toy cars. They made a tunnel with a big cardboard box. They drove their cars in and out of the tunnel. They had fun. + +But then, Tom's car hit the side of the tunnel. The box ripped and the tunnel was broken. Tom was sad. He cried. + +Mia saw Tom crying. She wanted to help. She hugged Tom and said, "Don't cry, Tom. We can fix the tunnel. We can use tape and glue. It will be OK." + +Tom stopped crying. He smiled at Mia. He said, "Thank you, Mia. You are a good friend. Let's fix the tunnel together." + +They got some tape and glue from their mom. They worked hard to fix the tunnel. They made it stronger and prettier. They were happy. + +They played with their cars again. They drove them in and out of the tunnel. They laughed and cheered. + +But then, they felt tired. They yawned. They rubbed their eyes. They said, "We are sleepy. Let's go to bed." + +They put their cars away. They said goodnight to their mom. They went to their room. They snuggled in their beds. They closed their eyes. They dreamed of tunnels and cars. They slept well. +Lily was a popular girl in her class. She had many friends who liked to play with her. She was good at sharing, singing and drawing. She always had a smile on her face. + +One day, Lily's mom came to pick her up from school. She told Lily that they had to hurry. They had to go to the hospital to see Lily's grandma, who was very sick. Lily loved her grandma very much. She wanted to give her a hug and make her feel better. + +But on the way to the hospital, they got stuck in a big traffic jam. There were many cars and trucks and buses that did not move. Lily's mom looked at her watch and frowned. She said, "Oh no, we are going to be late. I hope grandma is okay." + +Lily felt sad and scared. She did not like to see her mom worried. She did not like to see the cars and trucks and buses that did not move. She did not like to wait and wait and wait. She wanted to see her grandma now. + +She looked out the window and saw a boy on a bike. He was riding fast and weaving through the traffic. He had a big backpack on his back. He looked happy and free. Lily wished she had a bike like him. She said, "Mom, can we get out of the car and ride a bike to the hospital? It would be faster and more fun." + +Lily's mom shook her head. She said, "No, sweetie, we can't do that. It's too dangerous. We have to stay in the car and be patient. We will get to the hospital soon. I'm sure grandma is waiting for us." + +Lily sighed. She did not understand why they had to stay in the car and be patient. She thought riding a bike would be better. She felt angry and bored. She crossed her arms and pouted. + +But then she remembered something. She remembered that her grandma always told her to be kind and grateful. She remembered that her grandma always gave her hugs and kisses and cookies. She remembered that her grandma always said, "I love you, Lily." + +Lily felt a warm feeling in her heart. She realized that her mom was trying to do the best for her and her grandma. She realized that being angry and bored would not help anyone. She realized that being kind and grateful would make her and her mom and her grandma happy. + +She smiled and said, "Mom, I'm sorry for being grumpy. I know you are doing your best. I love you, mom. And I love grandma, too. Can we call her and tell her that we are on our way?" + +Lily's mom smiled back and said, "Of course, sweetie. That's a great idea. Let's call her and tell her that we love her and that we can't wait to give her a hug." + +They called grandma and heard her voice. She sounded weak but happy. She said, "I love you, Lily. I love you, mom. I'm so glad you are coming. I can't wait to see you and give you a hug." + +Lily and her mom felt a surge of joy and hope. They said, "We love you, grandma. We are almost there. We can't wait to see you and give you a hug, too." + +They hung up the phone and held hands. They looked at the traffic and saw that it was moving again. They said, "Hooray! We are going to make it!" + +They drove to the hospital and parked the car. They ran to the entrance and asked for grandma's room. They found her lying on a bed, surrounded by flowers and cards. She looked pale but happy. She saw them and smiled. + +They ran to her and gave her a big hug. They said, "We are here, grandma. We are here. We love you so much." + +Grandma hugged them back and said, "I'm so happy to see you. I love you so much, too. You are the best gift I could ever have." + +They stayed with her and talked and laughed and cried. They felt a bond of love and gratitude that nothing could break. They learned that being kind and grateful is more important than being popular or fast or fun. They learned that being patient and hopeful is more powerful than being angry or bored or scared. They learned that giving and receiving hugs is the best way to heal and comfort. They learned that love is the most precious thing in the world. +Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they would stop and look at the birds and the flowers. + +One day, they saw a big vehicle on the road. It was red and shiny and had a loud siren. Tom and Lily wanted to see it better, so they ran towards the road. + +"Stop!" their mom shouted. "That is a dangerous vehicle. It is a fire truck. It goes very fast and it can hurt you. You have to stay away from the road." + +Tom and Lily stopped and looked at their mom. They were scared and sorry. They did not know that the vehicle was dangerous. They just wanted to look at it. + +Their mom came and hugged them. She was glad that they were safe. She told them that the fire truck was going to help someone who had a fire in their house. She said that fire trucks were good vehicles, but they had to be careful around them. + +Tom and Lily nodded and said sorry to their mom. They went back to the park and played with their ball. They still liked to look at the fire truck, but they stayed far away from the road. They learned to be careful with dangerous vehicles. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys on the carpet. Lily has a lot of toys. Tom has only a few toys. Tom is jealous of Lily. + +One day, Lily says, "Let's count our toys. I have more than you." She starts to count her toys. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. I have ten toys. How many do you have?" + +Tom counts his toys. "One, two, three. I have three toys. That's not fair. You have too many toys. Give me some of your toys." + +Lily says, "No, they are mine. I don't want to share. Go away." + +Tom is angry. He grabs one of Lily's toys. Lily screams. She pulls the toy back. They fight over the toy. The toy breaks. They both cry. + +Their mom hears the noise. She comes to the room. She sees the broken toy and the crying children. She is not happy. She says, "What did you do? You are both naughty. You have to say sorry to each other and to me. And you have to clean up the mess. No more toys for today. Go to your rooms." + +Lily and Tom are sad. They say sorry to each other and to their mom. They pick up the pieces of the toy and the other toys. They go to their rooms. They wish they had been nice to each other. They have no one to play with. They are lonely. +Lily wanted to buy a big doll that she saw in the shop. She asked her mom if she could have it. Her mom looked at the price tag and shook her head. + +"Sorry, Lily, we can't buy this doll. It is too expensive. Do you know what expensive means?" her mom asked. + +Lily shook her head. She did not know what expensive meant. + +Her mom tried to explain. "Expensive means that you need a lot of money to buy something. Money is what we use to pay for things we want or need. We have some money, but not enough to buy everything we want. We have to save money for important things, like food and clothes and rent. Do you understand?" + +Lily nodded. She understood a little bit. She knew that money was what her mom gave to the cashier when they bought things. She knew that food and clothes and rent were important things. She did not want her mom to worry about money. + +She looked at the doll again. She still liked it, but she did not want it as much as before. She hugged her mom and said, "It's okay, mom. I don't need the doll. I have you and daddy and my teddy bear. They are more important than the doll." + +Her mom smiled and hugged her back. She was proud of Lily for being so sweet and smart. She said, "You are right, Lily. You have everything you need. And you know what? You are the most important thing to me and daddy. We love you very much." + +They left the shop and went home. Lily was happy. She did not have the expensive doll, but she had something better. She had a loving family. +Lila and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. They lived near a big valley with many trees and rocks. One day, they decided to go down the valley and look for animals and flowers. They took a basket and some bread and water. + +They walked for a long time, and saw many things. They saw a bird with red and yellow feathers, a rabbit with soft fur, and a flower with a sweet smell. They put some of them in their basket. They also saw a big bear with rough fur, but they ran away from it. + +They came to a stream with clear water. They were thirsty and hungry, so they sat down and ate some bread and drank some water. They shared their food with a friendly squirrel. They were happy and laughed. + +But then, they heard a loud yell. It was the bear. It had followed them and wanted their food. It was angry and hungry. It ran towards them, showing its big teeth and claws. + +Lila and Tom were scared. They dropped their basket and ran away. They tried to find their way back to their home, but they were lost. They yelled for help, but no one heard them. The bear chased them and caught them. It ate them up. The end. +Dan and Sue are actors. They like to play pretend on a big stage. Many people come to watch them and clap their hands. Clapping means they like the show. + +One day, Dan and Sue have to play a husband and a wife. They have to say nice things to each other and hug and kiss. But Dan and Sue do not really love each other. They are just friends. They are fake husband and wife. + +After the show, Dan and Sue go to their dressing rooms. They change their clothes and wash their faces. They are happy because the people clapped a lot. They did a good job. + +They meet in the hallway and smile. "You were a good fake wife, Sue," Dan says. "You were a good fake husband, Dan," Sue says. They high-five and laugh. + +Then they see their real partners.

They love each other. + +Dan and Sue introduce their partners to each other. They are all nice and friendly. They decide to go out for pizza together. They are happy. They are actors and friends and lovers. They have a good life. +Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw a big tree with many branches and leaves. They wanted to climb the tree and see what was up there. + +"Let's go, Anna!" Ben said. "Maybe we can see the birds and the clouds." + +"OK, Ben!" Anna said. "But be careful. The tree is very high and the branches are very thin." + +They ran to the tree and started to climb. They used their hands and feet to hold on to the bark and the twigs. They stretched their arms and legs to reach higher and higher. They felt happy and brave. + +They climbed until they were almost at the top of the tree. They looked around and saw a beautiful sight. They saw the park, the houses, the cars and the people. They saw the blue sky, the white clouds and the bright sun. They smiled and waved at each other. + +"Wow, Anna! Look at this!" Ben said. "We can see everything from here!" + +"Yes, Ben! It's amazing!" Anna said. "But we should go down soon. It's getting late and Mommy will be worried." + +They nodded and started to climb down. But as they did, they heard a loud crack. One of the branches they were on broke and fell to the ground. They screamed and held on to the tree. They were scared and troubled. + +"Help! Help!" Anna and Ben shouted. "We're stuck in the tree!" + +Some people in the park heard their cries and ran to help them. They called the firemen and waited for them to come. The firemen came with a big truck and a long ladder. They climbed the ladder and reached Anna and Ben. They wrapped them in blankets and carried them down. They checked them for injuries and gave them hugs. + +"Are you OK, Anna and Ben?" one of the firemen asked. + +"Yes, thank you, sir," Anna and Ben said. + +They were glad to be safe and sorry to break the tree. They thanked the firemen and the people who helped them. They saw their Mommy running to them. She was worried and angry, but also relieved and happy. She hugged them and kissed them. + +"Anna and Ben, what were you thinking?" Mommy said. "You could have been hurt or worse. You should never climb such a high tree without me or Daddy. You scared me so much!" + +"We're sorry, Mommy," Anna and Ben said. "We wanted to see the sight. It was so pretty. But we won't do it again. We promise." + +Mommy sighed and smiled. She was glad they were OK and learned their lesson. She took them home and gave them cookies and milk. She told them she loved them and tucked them in bed. They said they loved her too and fell asleep. They dreamed of the sight, but also of the firemen and the ladder. They knew they were lucky and brave. They also knew they were naughty and silly. They hoped the tree would grow back and be strong again. They hoped the birds and the clouds would forgive them. They hoped Mommy would too. +Lily and Ben are playing in the kitchen. They want to cook like mom and dad. They find a big pot and fill it with water. They put it on the stove and turn the knob. + +"Look, the water is getting hot!" Lily says. "We can cook soup!" + +"What do we put in the soup?" Ben asks. He looks around and sees some carrots, potatoes and noodles. + +"Let's use these!" he says. He takes a knife and tries to cut the carrots. + +"Be careful, Ben!" Lily says. "The knife is sharp. You can hurt yourself." + +She takes the knife from him and puts it away. She helps him break the noodles with his hands. They put the carrots, potatoes and noodles in the pot. + +"Now we have to wait," Lily says. "The soup has to cook for a long time." + +They sit on the floor and play with their toys. They forget about the pot on the stove. The water boils and bubbles. It makes a loud noise. + +"What's that?" Ben says. He looks up and sees the pot. The water is spilling over the edge. It makes a mess on the stove and the floor. + +"Oh no!" Lily says. "The soup is too hot. We have to turn off the stove." + +She runs to the knob and turns it. The water stops boiling. She gets a towel and tries to clean the mess. + +"Mom and dad will be mad," Ben says. He starts to cry. + +Lily hugs him. "Don't cry, Ben," she says. "We can make them a new soup. We can use cold water. Cold water is better than hot water." + +She smiles and takes his hand. They find another pot and fill it with cold water. They put it on the table and pretend to cook. + +"Look, the soup is ready!" Lily says. "It's cold and yummy!" + +They take two spoons and taste the soup. They make funny faces. + +"Yuck!" they say. "The soup is bad. We don't like cold soup." + +They laugh and throw the soup away. They decide to play something else. They hope mom and dad will not see the mess in the kitchen. +Anna and Ben like to bake cookies with Mom. They use flour, sugar, butter, eggs and chocolate chips. Mom shows them how to measure the ingredients with cups and spoons. She says, "We need to measure carefully, or the cookies will not taste good." + +Anna and Ben take turns to pour and scoop the ingredients into a big bowl. They stir and mix them with a wooden spoon. They are careful not to spill or make a mess. Mom says, "You are doing a great job, Anna and Ben. You are very good helpers." + +Mom gives them a baking tray and a cookie cutter. She says, "Now we can make the cookie shapes. You can use any shape you like. I have stars, hearts, circles and flowers." Anna and Ben choose their favorite shapes and press them into the dough. They make many cookies and fill the tray. + +Mom puts the tray in the oven and sets the timer. She says, "The cookies need to bake for 15 minutes. Then they will be ready to eat. Do you want some milk while we wait?" Anna and Ben nod and say, "Yes, please." Mom pours them some milk in colorful cups. She says, "You are very generous, Anna and Ben. You made enough cookies for everyone. We can share them with Dad and Grandma when they come home." Anna and Ben smile and say, "We love cookies. And we love you, Mom." +Sara and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Sara has a furry teddy bear and Ben has a plastic scale.

We wanted to make our own aprons. We wanted to help you bake cookies. We wanted to surprise you." Mom said, "I appreciate that you wanted to help me and surprise me, but you should have asked me first. You should have used your own clothes or paper or cloth. You should have cleaned up after yourselves. You should have been more careful and respectful." + +Mom made Tom and Sue take off their aprons and throw them away. She made them clean up the kitchen and wash the dishes. She made them apologize for cutting up her clothes. She said, "I love you, but you have to learn to be more responsible and polite.

They both say, "Mom, he/she started it!" They both point at each other. They both look angry. + +Their mom says, "I don't care who started it. You both have to stop it. Fighting is not nice. Sharing is nice. Why don't you take turns with the laser? You can both be space heroes and space monsters. Or you can play something else together. But you have to be kind and gentle with each other. Do you understand?" + +Tom and Jen nod. They say, "Yes, mom. We understand." They look at each other. They say, "Sorry, Tom/Jen." They hug and make up. They decide to share the laser and play nicely.

"Do you really mean it?" she asked. + +"Yes, I do," Tom said. "Can we still be friends?" + +"Of course we can," Sara said. "And maybe we can still pretend to be married.
