+He went to his dad and showed him the coin. He asked him why the coin did not vanish. His dad smiled and hugged him. He told him that the trick was not real. He said he had another coin in his other hand, and he switched them when he closed his hand. He said it was just a game to make Tom happy. He said he was sorry if he made Tom think the coin really vanished.
+
+Tom felt better. He understood that his dad was not lying, but playing. He asked his dad to show him the trick again. His dad agreed and did the trick. Tom watched carefully and saw how his dad switched the coins. He smiled and said he knew the secret. His dad said he was very smart and gave him a warm kiss. Tom said he loved his dad and his coins. He said he wanted to learn more tricks. His dad said he would teach him. They played with the coins until it was time for dinner.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big garden with many flowers and trees. One day, they saw a hedge that was very tall and green. They wondered what was behind it.
+
+"Let's go and see!" said Tom. He was brave and curious. "Maybe there is a secret place or a treasure!"
+
+"No, Tom, we should not!" said Lily. She was careful and kind. "Mum and Dad told us to stay away from the hedge. It might be dangerous or belong to someone else!"
+
+But Tom did not listen to Lily. He ran to the hedge and tried to find a hole. He pushed and pulled the branches until he made a gap. He saw a light that shone through the hedge. He wanted to go closer.
+
+"Tom, come back!" Lily shouted. She was scared and worried. "You don't know what is there!"
+
+But Tom did not hear Lily. He was too excited and silly. He sprang through the hedge and followed the light. He thought it was a star or a fairy.
+
+But it was not a star or a fairy. It was a trap. A big net fell on Tom and caught him. He screamed and cried. He was trapped and hurt.
+
+Lily heard Tom and ran to the hedge. She saw the net and the light. She also saw a man who came out of a hut. He was angry and mean. He had set the trap to catch animals. He saw Tom and laughed.
+
+"Ha ha, what a catch!" he said. "A little boy in my net! I will take him to the market and sell him for a lot of money!"
+
+Lily was shocked and sad. She wanted to help Tom, but she was too small and weak. She could not fight the man or break the net. She could only watch as the man dragged Tom away.
+
+She wished she had stopped Tom from going to the hedge. She wished they had listened to Mum and Dad. She wished they had stayed in the garden.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not go where you are not supposed to go. You might get into trouble or lose something precious.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run, slide and swing. They saw a big hill with a hole in it. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Let's go and see!" Anna said. She ran to the hole and looked in. It was dark and deep. She could not see the end.
+
+"Is it a tunnel?" Ben asked. He followed Anna and peeked in.
+
+"Maybe. Do you want to go in?" Anna asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He was curious and brave. He took Anna's hand and they crawled into the hole. It was cold and damp. They could hear some noises.
+
+"What are those sounds?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe some animals live here." Anna said.
+
+They kept crawling until they saw a light. They were excited. They thought they would discover something new. They reached the end of the tunnel and came out.
+
+But they were disappointed. They did not discover anything new. They were in the same park, just on the other side of the hill. They saw the same swings, slides and trees.
+
+"Is this it?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes. This is it." Anna said.
+
+They felt frustrated. They wanted to find something more interesting. They crawled back into the tunnel and went to the other side. They decided to play something else.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for shiny things. Sometimes they found rocks, sometimes they found coins, sometimes they found worms.
+
+"Look, I found a crystal!" Lily said, holding up a small, clear stone. "It is so pretty and sparkly!"
+
+"Wow, let me see!" Ben said, reaching for the crystal. "I want to have it!"
+
+"No, it is mine!" Lily said, pulling the crystal away. "I found it first!"
+
+They started to fight over the crystal. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see the big, brown dog that came into the garden. The dog saw the crystal and thought it was a toy. He ran towards Lily and Ben and snatched the crystal from their hands. He ran away with it, wagging his tail.
+
+"Hey, come back!" Lily and Ben cried. "That is our crystal!"
+
+They chased the dog, but he was too fast. He ran out of the garden and into the street. Lily and Ben stopped at the gate. They knew they were not allowed to go into the street. They looked at each other and felt sad. They had lost their crystal.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I should not have tried to take your crystal. It was not nice."
+
+"I'm sorry, too, Ben," Lily said. "I should have shared it with you. It was not fair."
+
+They hugged and said they were sorry. They decided to play something else. They hoped the dog would enjoy the crystal. They hoped they would find another one someday.
+Sara and Tom are playing with their crayons and paper. They like to draw animals and flowers and cars. Sara has a pink eraser that she uses to fix her mistakes. Tom does not have an eraser, but he wants Sara's.
+
+"Can I use your eraser, please?" Tom asks Sara.
+
+"No, it is mine. You have to find your own," Sara says.
+
+"But I need it. I made a big mess on my paper. Please, Sara, please," Tom begs.
+
+Sara shakes her head. She does not want to share. She thinks Tom will ruin her eraser. She holds it tight in her hand.
+
+Tom gets angry. He wants the eraser very much. He waits until Sara is not looking. Then he springs at her and tries to grab the eraser from her hand.
+
+"Hey, stop it!" Sara shouts. She pulls back her hand. She does not want to let go of her eraser.
+
+They both tug and pull. The eraser is stretched and twisted. It breaks in two pieces. Sara and Tom each have a piece of the eraser. But the pieces are too small and broken. They cannot use them to erase anything.
+
+They look at each other. They are both sad and sorry. They have lost their eraser and their friend. They start to cry. They wish they had been more kind and more careful. But it is too late. The eraser is gone and so is their fun.
+Lily and Sam are in the classroom. They have a big ruler. They want to measure things. They measure the table, the chair, the door, and the window. They write the numbers on a paper.
+
+"Let's measure the teacher!" Sam says. He runs to the teacher's desk. Lily follows him.
+
+The teacher is busy. She is grading papers. She does not see them.
+
+Sam puts the ruler on the teacher's head. Lily holds the other end. They try to see the number.
+
+"Ouch!" the teacher says. She feels something on her head. She looks up. She sees Sam and Lily.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asks.
+
+"We are measuring you!" Sam says.
+
+"Why?" the teacher asks.
+
+"Because we measure everything!" Lily says.
+
+The teacher smiles. She is patient. She likes curious children.
+
+"That's very nice, but you should ask first," she says. "Measuring people is not polite. It can hurt them or bother them."
+
+"Sorry, teacher," Sam and Lily say.
+
+"It's okay. I forgive you. But next time, please measure something else. Like a book, or a pencil, or a toy," the teacher says.
+
+"Okay, teacher," Sam and Lily say.
+
+They take the ruler and the paper. They go back to their seats. They measure more things. They have fun. They learn.
+Lily loved ponies. She wanted to have a pony of her own. One day, her mom took her to a farm. There were many animals there. Lily saw cows, sheep, pigs, chickens and ducks. But she was looking for ponies.
+
+"Mom, where are the ponies?" Lily asked.
+
+"Over there, honey. See that big barn? The ponies are inside. Let's go and say hello to them." Mom said.
+
+Lily and mom walked to the barn. They opened the door and saw four ponies. They were brown, black, white and gray. They had long manes and tails. They looked soft and cute.
+
+"Wow, mom, they are so pretty!" Lily exclaimed.
+
+"Yes, they are. And they are very friendly and helpful. They help the farmer with his work. They pull carts, carry things and give rides to children. Do you want to meet them?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily said.
+
+Mom took Lily's hand and led her to the ponies. She introduced them one by one.
+
+"This is Coco. He is the brown pony. He is very smart and gentle. He likes apples and carrots." Mom said.
+
+"Hello, Coco. I'm Lily. You are very nice." Lily said. She stroked Coco's nose and gave him a carrot.
+
+"This is Star. She is the black pony. She is very fast and brave. She likes to run and jump. She likes hay and oats." Mom said.
+
+"Hello, Star. I'm Lily. You are very cool." Lily said. She patted Star's neck and gave her some hay.
+
+"This is Snowy. He is the white pony. He is very calm and sweet. He likes to cuddle and nap. He likes grass and sugar." Mom said.
+
+"Hello, Snowy. I'm Lily. You are very cute." Lily said. She hugged Snowy's head and gave him some sugar.
+
+"This is Dusty. He is the gray pony. He is very playful and funny. He likes to make noises and tricks. He likes corn and bread." Mom said.
+
+"Hello, Dusty. I'm Lily. You are very fun." Lily said. She tickled Dusty's ear and gave him some bread.
+
+The ponies liked Lily. They nuzzled her and whinnied. Lily was very happy. She thanked mom for taking her to the farm. She asked mom if she could come back and visit the ponies again.
+
+"Of course, honey. The ponies would love to see you again. They are your new friends. Maybe next time, you can ride one of them. How would you like that?" Mom asked.
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She said goodbye to the ponies and waved. She hoped to see them soon. She loved ponies.
+Lily and Ben were going to the park with Mom and Dad. They wanted to have a picnic and play on the swings. Mom helped them wrap some sandwiches and put them in a cooler. She also packed some juice and cookies.
+
+"Can I carry the cooler, Mom?" Ben asked. He was four and liked to help.
+
+"Sure, Ben. But be careful, it's heavy," Mom said.
+
+Ben lifted the cooler with both hands and followed Mom and Dad to the car. Lily held Mom's hand and skipped along. She was three and very happy.
+
+They drove to the park and found a nice spot under a big tree. Mom and Dad spread a blanket on the grass and opened the cooler. They gave Lily and Ben their sandwiches and juice.
+
+"Yum, this is good," Lily said.
+
+"Can I have a cookie, Mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"After you finish your sandwich, Ben," Mom said.
+
+Ben nodded and took a big bite. He was hungry from carrying the cooler. He looked at the cookies and smiled. They were his favorite, chocolate chip.
+
+But then, something bad happened. A big dog ran up to them and barked. It was not a friendly dog. It was a mean dog. It wanted their food. It jumped on the cooler and knocked it over. The cookies fell out and the dog ate them all.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Ben shouted. He was angry and sad. He loved cookies.
+
+"Go away, bad dog!" Lily cried. She was scared and sad. She wanted a cookie too.
+
+Mom and Dad got up and tried to shoo the dog away. But the dog was not afraid. It growled and snapped at them. It was a very bad dog.
+
+Then, they heard a whistle. It was the dog's owner. He came running and grabbed the dog's collar. He apologized to Mom and Dad and said he was sorry. He said the dog was naughty and ran away from him. He said he would buy them new cookies.
+
+Mom and Dad thanked him and said it was okay. They were glad the dog was gone. They hugged Lily and Ben and said they were sorry too. They said they still had sandwiches and juice and they could share them. They said they loved them very much.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and hugged them back. They said they loved them too. They were still sad about the cookies, but they were happy to be with Mom and Dad. They ate their sandwiches and juice and felt better. Then, they went to play on the swings. They had fun and forgot about the bad dog. They had a good day at the park.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big puddle. It is wet and shiny. Ben wants to jump in the puddle. He thinks it is fun. Lily says no. She says they will get wet and cold. She says they should sit on the grass and look at the flowers.
+
+Ben does not listen to Lily. He runs to the puddle and jumps in. He splashes and laughs. He gets wet and dirty. Lily shakes her head. She sits on the grass and looks at the flowers. She sees red, yellow and blue. She smells sweet and fresh.
+
+Soon, Ben gets tired of the puddle. He wants to sit with Lily. He walks to the grass. He is wet and cold. He shivers and sneezes. He says he is sorry. He says he should have listened to Lily. Lily is kind. She gives him a hug. She says it is okay. She says they can go home and get dry and warm.
+
+Ben and Lily learn a lesson. They learn that it is good to listen to each other. They learn that it is not fun to get wet and cold. They learn that it is better to sit and look at the flowers. They learn that they are strong when they are together.
+Tom is a cat. He has a black and white fur and a long tail. He likes to play with his ball and his mouse. He lives with a girl named Anna. Anna is his best friend. She gives him food and water and hugs him every day.
+
+One day, Anna goes to school. She puts on her backpack and her coat. She says to Tom, "Bye, Tom. I will be back soon. Be a good cat." She waves to him and gets in the car with her mom. Tom waves back with his tail. He is sad. He misses Anna.
+
+Tom looks for something to do. He plays with his ball for a while, but it is not fun without Anna. He plays with his mouse, but it is too quiet without Anna. He looks out the window, but he does not see Anna. He feels lonely.
+
+He hears a noise outside. He sees a bird on the fence. The bird is red and yellow and has a big beak. It sings a loud song. Tom thinks the bird is pretty. He wants to talk to the bird. He jumps on the windowsill and meows.
+
+"Hello, bird. I am Tom. Do you want to be my friend?" he asks.
+
+The bird looks at Tom and laughs. "No, I don't want to be your friend. You are a cat. Cats are mean. They chase birds and try to eat them. Go away, cat. Leave me alone." The bird says.
+
+Tom is hurt. He is not mean. He does not want to eat the bird. He just wants a friend. He lowers his ears and his tail. He is sad. He goes back to his bed and curls up. He wishes Anna would come back soon. He loves Anna. Anna is his best friend.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they find a big hill near their house. The hill has green grass and yellow flowers.
+
+"Let's go up the hill!" Tom says. He runs to the hill.
+
+"Wait for me!" Sue says. She follows Tom. They climb the hill. It is hard work. They get hot and tired.
+
+When they reach the top of the hill, they see a cool lake. The lake is blue and shiny. They hear frogs and birds.
+
+"Wow, look at the lake!" Sue says. She points to the lake.
+
+"It is so cool!" Tom says. He feels the breeze. He sees a boat on the lake.
+
+"Can we use the boat?" Sue asks. She wants to go on the lake.
+
+"I don't know," Tom says. He looks around. He does not see anyone.
+
+"Maybe we can ask someone," Sue says. She sees a house near the lake.
+
+"OK, let's go," Tom says. He holds Sue's hand. They walk down the hill. They hope to use the boat. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are playing with blocks. They want to make a big tower. They put one block on top of another block. They increase the tower. They are happy.
+
+But then, a cat comes. The cat is curious. The cat wants to touch the tower. The cat rubs the tower with its paw. The tower falls down. Anna and Ben are sad.
+
+"Bad cat!" Anna says. "You broke our tower!"
+
+"Meow!" the cat says. The cat is sorry. The cat wants to be friends.
+
+"Let's make another tower," Ben says. "But this time, let's put it away from the cat."
+
+"OK," Anna says. "But we need more blocks. Where can we find more blocks?"
+
+They look around. They see a box. The box has more blocks. But the box belongs to Sam. Sam is not here. He is in another room.
+
+"Can we use Sam's blocks?" Anna asks.
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "He might get mad."
+
+"But he is not here," Anna says. "He will not know."
+
+"That's not honest," Ben says. "We should ask him first."
+
+Anna thinks. She knows Ben is right. She does not want to be dishonest.
+
+"You are right," Anna says. "Let's go and ask Sam."
+
+They go and find Sam. They ask him if they can use his blocks. Sam is nice. He says yes. He says he will help them.
+
+They go back to the blocks. They make a bigger tower. They increase the tower more. They are happy. The cat is happy too. The cat does not rub the tower. The cat watches. They all have fun.
+Anna was a humble girl who liked to help her mom and dad. She did not have many toys, but she was happy with what she had. She loved to read books and draw pictures with her crayons.
+
+One day, it was very cold and snowy outside. Anna's mom said they could not go to the park or the store. She said they had to stay inside and keep warm. Anna was sad, but she understood. She asked her mom if she could read a book by the fireplace. Her mom said yes, and gave her a big hug.
+
+Anna picked a book from the shelf and sat on the rug by the fireplace. She opened the book and looked at the pictures. They were about a princess and a dragon and a knight. Anna liked the princess, who was brave and kind. She did not like the dragon, who was mean and scary. She hoped the knight would save the princess.
+
+As Anna read the book, she felt the warmth of the fireplace on her face. She heard the crackle of the wood and the whistle of the wind. She smelled the smoke and the cookies that her mom was baking. She felt cozy and safe. She smiled and hugged the book.
+
+She looked up and saw her dad coming home from work. He was covered in snow and looked tired. He saw Anna and smiled. He took off his coat and boots and joined her by the fireplace. He asked her what she was reading. She told him about the princess and the dragon and the knight. He listened and nodded. He said he was proud of her for being a good reader. He gave her a big hug.
+
+Anna was happy. She had a humble home, but she had a loving family. She had a cold day, but she had a warm fireplace. She had a simple book, but she had a rich imagination. She hugged her dad and her mom and thanked them for everything. They hugged her back and told her they loved her. They were happy too.
+Sam and Mia love to play soccer. They kick the ball and run and laugh. They want to be soccer stars. One day, they go to the big stadium with their dad. They see many people and many flags. They hear loud noises and cheers.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Sam says. "That is where the soccer stars play. Can we play there too, dad?"
+
+"Maybe one day, Sam. But today, we are here to watch the game. Come on, let's find our seats." Dad says.
+
+They sit and watch the game. They see the soccer stars kick the ball and score goals. They clap and shout. They have fun. But the game is long. Sam and Mia start to feel tired. They yawn and rub their eyes.
+
+"Dad, can we go home now?" Mia asks. "I'm tired. And I'm hungry."
+
+"Not yet, Mia. The game is not over. We have to wait until the end." Dad says.
+
+"But dad, it's taking too long. And I'm bored. And I want to play." Sam says.
+
+"Please, Sam. Be patient. The game will end soon. And then we can go home and have dinner. And you can play with your toys." Dad says.
+
+Sam and Mia sigh. They don't like to wait. They want to go home. They want to play. They don't care about the game. They look at the clock. It says ten minutes left. They think that is too much. They wish the game would end.
+Anna liked to watch films with her big sister, Mia. They would sit on the sofa, eat popcorn and laugh at the funny parts. Anna's favorite film was about a bear who made friends with a boy. She liked the bear because he was kind and brave.
+
+But one day, Mia had to go away for a long time. She said she was going to a place called college, where she would learn new things and meet new people. Anna was sad and lonely. She missed her sister a lot. She did not want to watch films without her.
+
+Mama saw that Anna was unhappy. She said, "I know you miss Mia, but she will come back soon. She loves you very much. And I love you too. Why don't we watch a film together? We can pick any film you want."
+
+Anna thought for a moment. She decided to watch the film about the bear and the boy. She hoped it would make her feel better. She said, "OK, Mama. Let's watch the bear film."
+
+Mama smiled and put the film on. She hugged Anna and said, "You are my sweet girl. I'm here for you." Anna hugged her back and said, "I love you, Mama." They watched the film and enjoyed it. Anna felt a little less lonely. She knew that Mia would hug her too, when she came back.
+Sam and Tom are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make noises like vroom and beep when they move the cars.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race with their cars. They line up their cars on the floor and say: "Ready, set, go!" They push their cars as fast as they can. Sam's car is red and shiny. Tom's car is blue and old.
+
+Sam's car is faster than Tom's car. It zooms ahead and reaches the finish line first. Sam is happy and shouts: "I win, I win!" Tom is sad and angry. He says: "No fair, your car is better than mine!"
+
+Sam does not listen to Tom. He ignores him and plays with his car. He makes vroom and beep noises again. He says: "My car is the best, my car is the best!"
+
+Tom feels lonely and hurt. He looks around and sees a man sitting on a bench. The man is bald and has a big smile. He has a car too, but it is not a toy car. It is a real car, but very small. It is yellow and has a black stripe.
+
+Tom walks up to the man and says: "Hello, mister. Can I see your car?" The man is friendly and says: "Sure, little boy. This is my car. It is a mini car. Do you like it?" Tom nods and says: "Yes, I like it. It is very cute and funny. Can I sit in it?"
+
+The man says: "Of course, you can. But be careful, it is not a toy. It is a real car. It can drive and honk." He helps Tom to sit in the car and shows him the steering wheel and the horn. Tom is amazed and happy. He says: "Wow, this is so cool. Thank you, mister."
+
+The man says: "You're welcome, little boy. What is your name?" Tom says: "My name is Tom. What is your name?" The man says: "My name is Bob. I am bald, but I don't mind. I like my car and my smile."
+
+Tom and Bob become friends. They talk and laugh and honk the car. Sam sees them and feels curious. He leaves his car and walks over to them. He says: "Hi, Tom. Who is this? What is this?"
+
+Tom looks at Sam and says: "Hi, Sam. This is Bob. He is bald, but he is nice. This is his car. It is a mini car, but it is real. It is better than your car."
+
+Sam feels surprised and jealous. He says: "No way, my car is better than his car. My car is faster and shinier. His car is small and silly."
+
+Tom does not listen to Sam. He ignores him and plays with Bob and his car. He makes vroom and honk noises again. He says: "Your car is the best, your car is the best!"
+One day, a boy named Ben and his dog Spot went for a walk in the park. They liked to explore and have fun. They were adventurous and curious.
+
+They saw a big hill with many trees and flowers. Ben wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side. He said to Spot, "Come on, let's go up the hill. It will be fun." Spot wagged his tail and followed Ben.
+
+They climbed and climbed until they reached the top of the hill. They looked around and saw a pond with ducks and frogs. They also saw a wild rabbit hopping in the grass. Ben was excited and said, "Look, Spot, a rabbit! Let's go and say hello." Spot barked and ran after the rabbit.
+
+The rabbit was scared and ran away. Ben and Spot chased the rabbit, but they could not catch it. The rabbit was too fast and smart. It hid under a bush and waited for them to go away.
+
+Ben and Spot stopped and looked for the rabbit. They could not see it. They heard a voice from the bush. It said, "Go away, go away. This is my home. You are not welcome here." Ben and Spot were surprised. They wondered who was talking.
+
+They went closer to the bush and peeked inside. They saw the rabbit. It was not a real rabbit, but a toy rabbit. It had a button on its ear. When someone pressed the button, it would repeat what it heard.
+
+Ben and Spot laughed. They realized that the toy rabbit was repeating what they said. They decided to play a game with it. They took turns pressing the button and saying funny things. The toy rabbit repeated everything they said.
+
+They had a lot of fun with the toy rabbit. They forgot about the time and the pond and the ducks and the frogs. They only wanted to play with the toy rabbit. They were happy and silly. They were adventurous and curious.
+Ben and Mia were very hungry. They wanted to eat turkey for dinner. But they had to wait for Mom and Dad to get home from work.
+
+"Can we help make the turkey?" Ben asked Mia.
+
+"OK, let's try," Mia said. They went to the kitchen and found the big turkey in the fridge. It was cold and heavy.
+
+They tried to lift the turkey and put it in the oven. But it was too hard. The turkey slipped from their hands and fell on the floor. It made a loud thud.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben and Mia cried. They heard Mom and Dad come in the door.
+
+"What's going on?" Mom asked. She saw the turkey on the floor and the mess in the kitchen.
+
+"Sorry, Mom. We wanted to help make the turkey," Ben said.
+
+"We tried, but we got tired," Mia said.
+
+Mom and Dad smiled. They hugged Ben and Mia.
+
+"It's OK, sweeties. We appreciate your help. But making turkey is not easy. You need to be careful and follow the instructions. Maybe next time you can help with something else, like setting the table or making a salad," Mom said.
+
+"OK, Mom. We love you," Ben and Mia said.
+
+"We love you too. Now let's clean up this mess and get ready for dinner," Dad said.
+
+They all worked together to clean the kitchen and prepare the turkey. Soon they had a delicious and cozy dinner. Ben and Mia enjoyed the turkey and thanked Mom and Dad for making it. They were happy and full.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play and laugh together. One day, they are in the park with their moms. They see a big slide and run to it.
+
+"Me first!" Lily says. She climbs up the ladder and slides down. She is happy.
+
+"Me too!" Ben says. He follows her and slides down. He is happy too.
+
+They do it again and again. They have fun.
+
+But then, Ben has an idea. He wants to make a joke. He finds some mud and puts it on his hands. He waits for Lily to slide down.
+
+When Lily slides down, Ben wipes his muddy hands on her face. "Surprise!" he says.
+
+Lily is not happy. She is angry. She feels the mud on her face and cries. "That's not funny! That's mean!" she says.
+
+Ben is sorry. He did not want to make Lily cry. He wanted to make her laugh. He wipes the mud off her face with his shirt. "I'm sorry, Lily. I was just joking. Please don't be mad at me," he says.
+
+Lily looks at Ben. She sees that he is sorry. She stops crying. She wipes her tears with her hand. "It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. But don't do that again, okay?" she says.
+
+Ben nods. He hugs Lily. "Okay. I won't do that again. I'm sorry, Lily. You are my friend," he says.
+
+Lily hugs Ben back. "You are my friend too, Ben. Let's go play some more," she says.
+
+They run to the swings and swing high. They are happy again. They laugh and play together. They are friends.
+Lily and Tom were going on a journey with their mom and dad. They got in the car and put on their seat belts. The car was very noisy. It made vroom vroom sounds and beep beep sounds. Lily and Tom liked to look out the window and see the trees and houses and animals.
+
+"Look, a cow!" Tom said, pointing to a big black and white animal in a field.
+
+"Moo!" Lily said, making the sound of a cow.
+
+They saw many other things on their journey. They saw a bridge, a lake, a train, and a big mountain. They admired everything they saw. They said wow and ooh and aah.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Lily asked, after a long time.
+
+"Soon, sweetie," mom said. "We are going to grandma's house. She has a surprise for us."
+
+"What is it?" Tom asked, curious.
+
+"You'll see," dad said, smiling.
+
+Lily and Tom wondered what the surprise was. They hoped it was something fun and nice. They loved their grandma. She always gave them hugs and cookies and stories. They were excited to see her.
+
+They arrived at grandma's house. They got out of the car and ran to the door. Grandma opened it and welcomed them.
+
+"Hello, my darlings!" she said. "I'm so happy to see you. Come in, come in."
+
+She hugged them and kissed them and led them to the living room. There, they saw the surprise. It was a big, fluffy, brown puppy. It wagged its tail and licked their faces.
+
+"A puppy!" Lily and Tom exclaimed. "For us?"
+
+"Yes, for you," grandma said. "He needs a good home and a lot of love. Do you want to keep him?"
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Lily and Tom said. They hugged the puppy and thanked grandma. They named him Spot. They played with him and fed him and cuddled him. They admired him and his cute ears and nose and paws.
+
+They had a wonderful time at grandma's house. They were very happy with their new friend. They decided that their journey was the best journey ever.
+Lisa liked to play with her toys on the carpet. She had many toys: dolls, cars, blocks, books. She liked to make stories with them and have fun. But sometimes, she made a big mess on the carpet. Her mom and dad did not like that.
+
+One day, Lisa was playing with her toys on the carpet. She was making a big city with her blocks and cars. She was having a lot of fun. But she did not see that her dad was coming home from work. He opened the door and walked in. He did not see the toys on the carpet. He stepped on them and tripped. He fell down and hurt his knee. He also tore the carpet with his shoe.
+
+Lisa saw her dad fall and felt bad. She ran to him and said, "I'm sorry, dad. Are you okay?" Her dad said, "I'm okay, Lisa. But you have to be careful with your toys. You can't leave them on the carpet. Someone could get hurt. And you also ruined the carpet. We have to fix it."
+
+Lisa said, "I'm sorry, dad. I didn't mean to. How can we fix the carpet?" Her dad said, "We have to get a needle and thread and sew the hole. But first, we have to clean up the toys. Can you help me?" Lisa said, "Yes, dad. I can help you. I will put my toys away in the box. I will be organized."
+
+Lisa and her dad worked together to clean up the toys and fix the carpet. They put the toys in the box and put the box in the closet. They got a needle and thread and sewed the hole in the carpet. They made the carpet look good again. They were happy. They hugged each other and said, "We did it. We fixed the carpet. We are a good team." Lisa said, "I love you, dad. I'm sorry for the mess." Her dad said, "I love you, too, Lisa. I'm proud of you for helping me. But next time, please be careful with your toys." Lisa said, "I will, dad. I promise." They smiled and went to the kitchen for a snack.
+Sara and Ben were twins. They liked to walk with Mom and Dad in the park. They saw many things: trees, flowers, birds, dogs, and people. Sometimes they played on the swings or the slide. They had fun.
+
+One day, they saw a big red balloon in the sky. It was very pretty. Sara and Ben wanted the balloon. They asked Mom and Dad if they could have it. Mom and Dad said no. The balloon was not theirs. It belonged to someone else. Sara and Ben were sad.
+
+They kept walking and saw a man with a funny hat. He was holding a string. The string was attached to the balloon. The man was smiling. He looked at Sara and Ben and said, "Hello, little ones. Do you like my balloon?"
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They hoped the man would give them the balloon. The man said, "This balloon is very special. It has a memory. It remembers everything it sees and hears. It can tell you stories. Do you want to hear a story?"
+
+Sara and Ben nodded again. They loved stories. The man said, "Okay, but you have to be very quiet and listen carefully. The balloon will whisper to you. Come closer."
+
+Sara and Ben walked closer to the man and the balloon. They put their ears near the balloon. They heard a soft voice. It said, "Hello, Sara and Ben. I have a story for you. It is about a crazy cat who lived in a big house. He liked to chase mice and birds and make a mess. He was very naughty. One day, he found a magic hat. He put it on his head and..."
+
+The balloon went on with the story. Sara and Ben listened with wide eyes. They forgot about Mom and Dad. They forgot about the park. They forgot about everything. They only heard the balloon.
+
+Mom and Dad were looking for Sara and Ben. They saw them with the man and the balloon. They ran to them and said, "Sara, Ben, what are you doing? Come here. We have to go home."
+
+Sara and Ben did not hear them. They did not see them. They only heard the balloon. The man smiled and said, "Too late. They are mine now. The balloon has taken their memory. They will follow me wherever I go. They will listen to my stories forever. Goodbye."
+
+Mom and Dad were shocked. They tried to grab Sara and Ben, but the man and the balloon flew away. They were gone. Mom and Dad cried. They lost their twins. They lost their memory. They lost their happiness.
+Lily was a mouse who lived in a big house. She liked to find food and toys in the rooms, but she was always nervous of the hunter. The hunter was a cat who chased and tried to catch mice. He had sharp teeth and claws and a loud meow.
+
+One day, Lily found a shiny bottle in the kitchen. It had a label that said "Shrink". She was curious and opened the bottle. A strange smell came out and made her sneeze. She felt funny and looked at her paws. They were smaller than before! She had shrunk!
+
+"Oh no!" she squeaked. "I am so tiny now! The hunter will find me and eat me!"
+
+She ran to hide under the table, but the hunter saw her. He licked his lips and pounced. Lily was scared and ran away. She was so small that she could fit in a crack in the wall. The hunter could not follow her. He scratched and hissed, but he could not reach her.
+
+"Ha ha!" Lily said. "You are too big and I am too small! You cannot catch me now!"
+
+She felt brave and stuck out her tongue. The hunter was angry and left. Lily was safe, but she was still shrunk. She wondered how to get big again. She hoped to find another bottle that said "Grow".
+Lily loved to paint. She had many colors and brushes. She liked to paint flowers and trees and animals. She had a journal where she kept her paintings. She was very proud of her journal.
+
+One day, her friend Max came to play. Max saw Lily's journal and wanted to see it. He asked Lily, "Can I look at your journal? I want to see your paintings."
+
+Lily said, "Yes, you can look, but be careful. My journal is very important to me. It is my serious work."
+
+Max nodded and opened the journal. He saw many beautiful paintings. He liked them a lot. He said, "Wow, Lily, you are a great painter. Your paintings are very pretty."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Max. I like to paint a lot. Do you want to paint with me?"
+
+Max said, "Yes, I do. Can I use your colors and brushes?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, you can, but please don't make a mess. And don't paint on my journal. You can paint on this paper."
+
+Max said, "OK, Lily. I will be careful. Let's paint together."
+
+Lily and Max painted together. They had fun. They painted a rainbow and a sun and a bird. They showed each other their paintings. They said, "We are good painters. We are serious artists." They put their paintings in a new journal. They were very happy.
+Tim and Lily were young friends who liked to play pretend. One day, they decided to be pirates and sail the sea in their cardboard box. They put on hats and scarves and drew maps and swords with crayons.
+
+"Ahoy, matey! Where are we going?" Tim asked Lily, who was holding the map.
+
+"We are going to find the treasure island, of course!" Lily said. "It has gold and jewels and candy!"
+
+"Wow, that sounds great! How do we get there?" Tim said.
+
+Lily looked at the map and pointed. "We have to follow the big star and the blue fish. They will provide clues for us."
+
+Tim and Lily sailed their box across the living room, making boat noises and waving their swords. They saw the big star on the wall and the blue fish on the rug. They followed them until they reached the couch.
+
+"Look, there it is! The treasure island!" Lily exclaimed. She jumped out of the box and climbed on the couch. "Come on, Tim, let's dig for the treasure!"
+
+Tim followed her and they used their hands and spoons to dig in the cushions. They found some coins and beads and candy that Lily's mom had hidden for them.
+
+"Yay, we did it! We are the best pirates ever!" Tim said.
+
+They hugged and shared their treasure. They were very happy and proud of their adventure. They decided to play pirates again tomorrow.
+Ben and his mom went to the subway to go to the park. They saw a lot of people and trains. Ben liked the trains. They made loud noises and moved fast.
+
+"Mom, can we ride the train?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, we can. But first we have to buy a ticket and find the right platform," his mom said.
+
+They walked to the ticket machine and his mom put some money in. She got a small card and gave it to Ben.
+
+"Here, this is your ticket. You have to keep it safe and show it to the gate," she said.
+
+Ben held the card in his hand. He felt proud. He had a ticket.
+
+They followed the signs to the platform. They saw a big sign that said "Park". That was where they wanted to go.
+
+"Look, mom, that's our train!" Ben said, pointing to a train that was coming.
+
+They hurried to the gate and showed their tickets. The gate opened and they went through. They walked to the train and got on. It was crowded. There were no seats.
+
+"Mom, where can we sit?" Ben asked.
+
+"We can't, honey. We have to stand and hold on to the pole or the strap," his mom said.
+
+She found a pole and held on to it. She lifted Ben up and put him on her hip. He wrapped his arms around her neck.
+
+"Mom, you're strong. You can carry me," Ben said.
+
+"Thank you, sweetie. But you're not so light. You're heavy," his mom said.
+
+She smiled and kissed his cheek.
+
+"Mom, can I help you?" Ben asked.
+
+He wanted to be helpful.
+
+"How can you help me, honey?" his mom asked.
+
+Ben looked around. He saw a lady with a big bag. The bag looked heavy. The lady looked tired.
+
+"Mom, look. That lady has a heavy bag. Maybe we can help her," Ben said.
+
+He pointed to the lady.
+
+His mom looked. She nodded.
+
+"That's very kind of you, Ben. Let's ask her if she needs help," she said.
+
+They walked to the lady and his mom said, "Excuse me, ma'am. Do you need help with your bag?"
+
+The lady looked surprised. She smiled.
+
+"That's very nice of you. Thank you. Yes, I could use some help. My bag is heavy and I have a bad back," she said.
+
+She handed her bag to his mom. His mom took it and put it on the floor.
+
+"Thank you so much. You're very kind," the lady said.
+
+"You're welcome. We're happy to help," his mom said.
+
+Ben smiled. He felt good. He helped someone.
+
+He said, "Mom, we helped the lady. We're helpers."
+
+His mom hugged him.
+
+"Yes, we are, Ben. We're helpers. And I'm proud of you," she said.
+Anna and Ben were going to visit their grandma. They were very happy because they loved grandma and she always had fun things to do. They had to pack their bags with clothes and toys and books. Anna packed her favorite doll and Ben packed his favorite car. They also packed a big circle that they could roll and bounce and play with.
+
+Mom and dad helped them put their bags in the car. They said goodbye to their house and their cat and drove to grandma's. It was a long drive, but they saw many things on the way. They saw cows and horses and trees and flowers. They sang songs and played games and ate snacks. They asked mom and dad how much longer until they got to grandma's.
+
+Soon, they saw a sign that said "Welcome to Incredible Town". Anna and Ben wondered what was so incredible about the town. They looked out the window and saw something amazing. The town was full of circles! There were circles on the houses, on the cars, on the signs, on the clothes, on the animals, on everything! Anna and Ben gasped and laughed and pointed at the circles. They had never seen anything like it.
+
+Mom and dad smiled and said, "Surprise! We are not going to grandma's. We are going to Incredible Town, where everything is a circle. Grandma is here too, and she has a special surprise for you. Do you remember what you packed in your bags?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and said, "Yes, we packed a circle!"
+
+Mom and dad said, "That's right. And do you know what? That circle is not just a circle. It is a magic circle. It can change into anything you want. You can make it big or small, soft or hard, colorful or plain, loud or quiet, anything you can imagine. And you can share it with grandma and with the other kids in Incredible Town. They all have magic circles too. Are you ready to have some incredible fun?"
+
+Anna and Ben cheered and said, "Yes, yes, yes! We are ready! Thank you, mom and dad! Thank you, grandma! Thank you, magic circle! This is the best day ever!"
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park, draw pictures, and share snacks. One day, Ben brought a big bag of candy to the park. He said, "Look, Lily, I have candy for us. Do you want some?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She loved candy. Ben opened the bag and gave her a yellow candy. He took a red one for himself. They put the candy in their mouths and chewed.
+
+But Lily made a sour face. The candy was not sweet. It was sour and bitter. It hurt her tongue and teeth. She spit it out and said, "Yuck, Ben, this candy is bad. It makes me feel sick. Why did you give me this candy?"
+
+Ben shrugged and said, "I don't know. I found it in my dad's car. He said it was his memory candy. He said it helps him remember things. I thought it would be fun to try it."
+
+Lily felt angry and sad. She thought Ben was her friend, but he gave her bad candy. She said, "Ben, you are mean. You don't care about me. You only care about yourself. I don't want to be your friend anymore." She ran away and left Ben alone.
+
+Ben felt sorry and confused. He didn't mean to hurt Lily. He wanted to share his candy with her. He didn't know it was bad. He wished he could say sorry and make her happy again. But he didn't know where she went. He looked at the bag of candy and wondered what it was. He decided to try another one. Maybe it would help him remember how to be a good friend.
+
+He took a blue candy and put it in his mouth. He chewed and swallowed. But he didn't feel any better. He felt worse. The candy was not only sour and bitter, but also spicy and hot. It burned his mouth and throat. He coughed and choked. He tried to spit it out, but it was too late. The candy was stuck in his throat. He couldn't breathe. He fell to the ground and closed his eyes. He never woke up again.
+Lily and Ben like to play soccer. They are on the same team. They wear red shirts and black shorts. The other team wears blue shirts and white shorts. The other team is very good. They score many goals.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They hope they can score a goal too. They try hard. They run and kick the ball. But the other team is faster and stronger. They take the ball away.
+
+"Come on, Lily, don't give up!" Ben says. He passes the ball to Lily. Lily sees a chance. She runs to the goal. She kicks the ball hard. The ball flies in the air.
+
+The other team's goalie is gray. He has gray hair and gray eyes. He is very old. He is not very fast. He jumps to catch the ball. But he is too late. The ball goes past him. It goes into the net.
+
+"Goal!" Lily and Ben shout. They are happy. They hug each other. They hope they can score more goals. They are good players. They have fun.
+Anna liked to dream. Every night, she closed her eyes and saw many things in her head. Some things were nice, like flowers and stars and her friends. Some things were weird, like talking animals and flying cars and big monsters.
+
+One night, Anna had a very weird dream. She dreamed that she was in a big forest with many trees and birds. She saw a big house made of candy and chocolate. She wanted to go inside and eat some, but a voice stopped her.
+
+"Who are you?" the voice said. "This is my house. You can't come in."
+
+Anna looked around and saw a big bear standing behind her. The bear was wearing a hat and a coat and holding a cane. He looked angry and scary.
+
+"Please, Mr. Bear, I'm sorry. I didn't know this was your house. I was just curious. Can I have some candy, please?" Anna said.
+
+"No, you can't. This is my candy. I made it myself. You are a bad girl. You want to steal my candy. Go away, or I will eat you!" the bear said.
+
+Anna was very scared. She wanted to run away, but her feet were stuck to the ground. She tried to scream, but no sound came out. She felt the bear coming closer and closer.
+
+Then, she woke up. She opened her eyes and saw her room. She saw her bed and her toys and her mom. She was safe and warm.
+
+"Mom, mom, I had a weird dream. There was a big bear and a candy house and he wanted to eat me!" Anna said.
+
+"Oh, Anna, it was just a dream. It wasn't real. Don't be afraid. I'm here with you. Do you want a hug?" her mom said.
+
+"Yes, please. I love you, mom. Can you stay with me until I fall asleep?" Anna said.
+
+"Of course, my sweetie. I love you, too. Let's cuddle and sing a song. Maybe you will have a nice dream this time." her mom said.
+
+Anna felt better. She hugged her mom and closed her eyes. She hoped to have a nice dream. She hoped to never see the big bear again.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Lily brings a new doll to Tom's house. The doll has long hair and a pink dress. Lily loves her doll very much.
+
+"Look, Tom, this is my doll. Her name is Anna. She is very pretty and soft. Do you want to play with her?" Lily asks.
+
+Tom nods and smiles. He likes dolls too. He takes Anna from Lily and hugs her. But he hugs her too hard. The doll's head falls off. Tom is scared. He broke Lily's doll.
+
+"Oh no, Tom, what did you do? You broke my doll! She is my favorite! How could you?" Lily cries. She is very sad and angry. She snatches Anna from Tom and runs away.
+
+Tom feels very bad. He did not mean to break Lily's doll. He wants to say sorry and make her happy again. He follows Lily to her room. He knocks on the door.
+
+"Lily, please open the door. I am sorry. I did not want to break your doll. I was just hugging her. I like her too. Can we fix her?" Tom says.
+
+Lily hears Tom's voice. She is still sad, but she is not so angry anymore. She knows Tom is her friend. She opens the door and shows him her doll.
+
+"Look, Tom, her head is broken. How can we fix her?" Lily says.
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He remembers his mom has a sewing kit. He runs to get it. He comes back with a needle and a thread. He tries to sew the doll's head back to her body. He is careful not to hurt himself or the doll.
+
+"There, Lily, I fixed your doll. She is not broken anymore. She is still pretty and soft. Do you forgive me?" Tom says.
+
+Lily looks at her doll. She sees the stitches on her neck. She touches them gently. She smiles. She hugs Tom and her doll.
+
+"Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend. I forgive you. I love you and Anna. Do you want to play with us?" Lily says.
+
+Tom nods and smiles. He hugs Lily and the doll. They are happy again. They play with toys and books. They are friends.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to nap in the afternoon. She had a soft bed, a pink blanket and a teddy bear. She felt happy and cozy when she napped.
+
+One day, a thief came into her house. He was looking for money and jewels. He saw Lily's bed and thought it was a good place to hide. He crawled under the blanket and waited for the coast to be clear.
+
+Lily came back from playing with her toys and wanted to nap. She did not see the thief under her blanket. She climbed into her bed and hugged her teddy bear. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
+
+The thief felt Lily's warm body next to him. He was angry and scared. He did not want to be caught by Lily's parents. He decided to take Lily with him and run away. He grabbed Lily and put his hand over her mouth. He whispered, "Shh, don't scream. You are coming with me."
+
+Lily woke up and felt the thief's hand on her face. She was terrified and confused. She tried to scream, but the thief's hand was too strong. She tried to kick, but the thief's arms were too tight. She looked at her teddy bear and wished he could help her. She felt bitter tears running down her cheeks. She did not know what the thief wanted or where he was taking her. She wished she never napped that day.
+Ben and Lily were playing pirates on the beach. They had a big boat made of sand and sticks, and a flag with a skull on it. They pretended to sail to different islands and look for treasure.
+
+One day, they saw another boat on the water. It was a real boat, with a sail and a motor. It was coming closer to their beach. Ben and Lily got scared. They thought the boat was full of bad pirates who wanted to take their sand boat and their flag.
+
+"Quick, Lily, hide!" Ben said. He grabbed the flag and ran behind a rock. Lily followed him, but she was carrying a heavy bucket of shells. She was slow and tired.
+
+The boat stopped near the shore. A man and a woman got out. They were not bad pirates. They were Ben and Lily's parents. They had come to pick them up for lunch.
+
+"Ben, Lily, where are you?" the man called. He saw the sand boat and the flag. He smiled. "Wow, you made a great pirate ship. Can we see it?"
+
+Ben and Lily peeked from behind the rock. They saw their parents. They felt silly. They had been afraid of nothing.
+
+"Sorry, Mom, sorry, Dad," Ben said. He came out with the flag. "We thought you were bad pirates. We were hiding."
+
+Lily came out too, with the bucket. She dropped it on the sand. "Me too," she said. "But this bucket is too heavy. I don't want it anymore."
+
+The woman hugged them. "It's okay, sweeties. You were just playing. But you don't have to be afraid of us. We love you. And you don't have to surrender your flag. You can keep it."
+
+The man picked up the bucket. "And you don't have to carry this heavy bucket. You can leave it here. We have some yummy sandwiches for you on the boat. Come on, let's go."
+
+Ben and Lily smiled. They followed their parents to the boat. They learned that sometimes things are not what they seem, and that they can always trust their parents. They had fun playing pirates, but they were happy to go home.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. One day, they find a big, wide truck in the park. It is red and shiny. It has a siren and a badge. It is a police truck.
+
+"Wow, look at this truck!" Tim says. "Can we play with it?"
+
+"Sure, why not?" Sam says. "Maybe the police are busy. Maybe they forget their truck."
+
+They climb into the truck. They pretend to drive and catch bad guys. They make loud noises with the siren and the horn. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is angry and loud. It is the police.
+
+"Hey, you two! Get out of my truck right now!" the police says. "What are you doing here? This is not a toy. This is my work truck. You could get hurt or break something."
+
+Tim and Sam are scared. They jump out of the truck. They say sorry to the police.
+
+"We are sorry, sir. We just want to play. We think you forget your truck," Tim says.
+
+"I did not forget my truck. I park it here for a minute. I have to talk to someone. You should not touch things that are not yours. You should ask first. Do you understand?" the police says.
+
+"Yes, sir. We understand. We will not do it again," Sam says.
+
+The police is not happy, but he is not mean. He tells them to go home and be careful. He tells them to respect the police and their trucks. He tells them to have fun with their own toys.
+
+Tim and Sam nod. They run away from the truck. They are glad they are not in trouble. They learn a lesson. They do not forget it.
+Sam and Mia were friends who liked to play together. One day, they decided to go on a journey to the big hill. They packed some snacks and water in their backpacks and put on their hats and shoes.
+
+"Let's march to the hill like soldiers!" Sam said. "We are powerful and brave!"
+
+"OK, let's march!" Mia agreed. They held hands and started to walk. They sang a song as they marched. "We are powerful, we are brave, we can march to the hill today!"
+
+They marched for a long time, but the hill seemed very far away. They started to feel tired and thirsty. They stopped under a tree to rest and drink some water.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Mia asked.
+
+"No, not yet. But we are almost there. Come on, let's march some more!" Sam said.
+
+They marched again, but now they felt hot and hungry. They saw some flowers and berries along the way. They stopped to pick some and eat them.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Sam asked.
+
+"No, not yet. But we are very close. Come on, let's march a little more!" Mia said.
+
+They marched again, but now they felt sore and bored. They did not sing anymore. They did not hold hands anymore. They just wanted to reach the hill.
+
+"Are we there yet?" They both asked.
+
+"Yes, we are!" They finally saw the top of the hill. They ran to it and climbed it. They looked around and saw the whole world. They felt happy and proud.
+
+"We did it! We marched to the hill! We are powerful and brave!" They shouted.
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They shared their snacks and water and enjoyed the view. They learned that marching to the hill was hard, but fun. They learned that they could do anything if they worked together and helped each other. They learned that being powerful and brave meant being kind and loyal. They learned that the journey was more important than the destination. They learned a lot from their march to the hill.
+Sara loved to play in the garden with her mom. She liked to see the flowers of different colors and shapes. She wondered how they grew from the ground. Mom told her that the flowers had seeds that slept underground. When the sun and the rain came, the seeds woke up and started to grow. They pushed their way up through the dirt and made stems and leaves. Then they made buds that opened up and became flowers. This was called blooming.
+
+One day, Sara saw a new flower in the garden. It was white and round and had a yellow center. It looked like a big ball of cotton. Mom said it was a daisy. Sara was excited. She wanted to see how the daisy bloomed. She asked mom if she could dig up the seed and see what it looked like. Mom said no, that would hurt the flower and make it die. She said Sara had to be patient and wait for the seed to bloom by itself.
+
+Sara was sad. She wanted to see the seed so badly. She decided to sneak out of the house when mom was not looking. She took a shovel and went to the garden. She found the daisy and started to dig around it. She dug deeper and deeper, but she could not find the seed. She only found more dirt and some worms. She was frustrated. She dug harder and harder, until she heard a snap. She looked up and saw that she had broken the stem of the daisy. The flower fell to the ground and wilted. Sara felt a tear roll down her cheek. She had killed the daisy.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the garden. She saw Sara crying and the daisy on the ground. She was angry and sad. She scolded Sara for disobeying her and ruining the flower. She told Sara to go to her room and think about what she had done. Sara ran to her room and sobbed. She wished she had listened to mom and waited for the daisy to bloom. She learned a hard lesson that day. She learned that some things take time and care to grow, and that she should not be greedy and curious. She learned to respect the flowers and their seeds that slept underground.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Sara wants to go on the slide. Ben is scared. He says the slide is too high.
+
+Sara says, "Don't be scared, Ben. I will go first. Then you can follow me. It will be fun." She runs to the slide and climbs up the ladder. She sits on the top and smiles at Ben. She says, "Come on, Ben. You can do it."
+
+Ben walks slowly to the slide. He looks up at Sara. He sees the sun behind her. She looks like a star. He feels brave. He climbs up the ladder. He sits next to Sara. He says, "You are very nice, Sara. You are my best friend." He gives her a kiss on the cheek.
+
+Sara blushes. She says, "You are very nice, too, Ben. You are my best friend." She gives him a kiss on the cheek. They hold hands and slide down together. They laugh and scream.
+
+But they slide too fast. They hit the ground hard. They feel pain. They have cuts on their knees and elbows. They cry and bleed.
+
+A lady sees them. She runs to them. She says, "Oh, you poor children. You are hurt. Let me help you." She takes them to a bench. She has a bag with her. She takes out some water, some cloth, and some tape. She cleans their cuts. She covers them with the cloth. She tapes them. She says, "There, there. You will be fine. You are very brave."
+
+Sara and Ben stop crying. They look at their bandages. They are thin and white. They look like stars. They smile at each other. They say, "Thank you, lady. You are very nice. You are our friend." They give her a kiss on the cheek.
+
+The lady smiles. She says, "You are very welcome, children. You are very sweet. You are my friends." She gives them a kiss on the cheek. She says, "Now, be careful. Don't play on the slide again. It is too high. Play on the swings or the sandbox. They are safer and funnier."
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They say, "OK, lady. We will. Goodbye, lady." They wave at her. They hold hands and walk to the swings. They are happy. They are friends. They have stars on their knees and elbows.
+Tommy likes to play with his hair. He makes it long and short, curly and straight, and sometimes he puts funny things in it. One day, he finds a pair of scissors in the kitchen and decides to cut his hair by himself. He thinks he will look very cool.
+
+He goes to the bathroom and looks in the mirror. He starts to snip snip snip his hair. He cuts some here and some there, and soon he has a lot of hair on the floor. He thinks he is doing a good job, but he does not notice that his hair is very uneven and messy.
+
+His mom comes home and sees the hair on the floor. She is very angry. She goes to the bathroom and sees Tommy in the mirror. She gasps and says, "Tommy, what have you done to your hair? You look like a scarecrow!"
+
+Tommy turns around and smiles. He says, "I cut my hair, Mommy. Do you like it?"
+
+His mom shakes her head and says, "No, Tommy, I do not like it. You should not cut your hair by yourself. You could hurt yourself or make a big mess. Now we have to go to the barber and fix your hair."
+
+Tommy does not want to go to the barber. He likes his hair the way it is. He says, "No, Mommy, I do not want to go to the barber. The barber is scary. He has a big machine that makes a loud noise and he pulls my hair."
+
+His mom says, "I know, Tommy, but you have to go to the barber. He will make your hair look nice and neat again. He will not hurt you or pull your hair. He will be gentle and friendly. Come on, let's go."
+
+She takes Tommy by the hand and leads him to the car. Tommy is sad and scared. He does not want to go to the barber. He wishes he did not cut his hair by himself. He wishes he noticed how bad it looked. He hopes the barber will not be angry with him.
+Tim and Lily are playing in the park. They like to go on the slide and the swings. They see a big loop in the grass. It is made of metal and has a hole in the middle.
+
+"Let's go inside the loop!" Lily says. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK!" Tim says. He follows Lily to the loop. They crawl inside the hole. It is dark and cold inside the loop.
+
+"Hello!" Lily says. She tries to see Tim, but she can't. She hears a noise. It sounds like a growl.
+
+"What is that?" Tim says. He feels scared. He wants to get out of the loop.
+
+"Maybe it is a dog," Lily says. "Or a bear!"
+
+They hear the noise again. It is louder and closer. They scream and run out of the loop. They see a man with a big beard and a hat. He is holding a radio. He is laughing.
+
+"Sorry, kids," the man says. "I didn't mean to scare you. I was just listening to some music. This is my loop. I made it for fun."
+
+Tim and Lily look at the man. They look at the loop. They look at each other. They are not scared anymore. They are angry.
+
+"That was not nice!" Lily says. "You should not scare people with your loop!"
+
+"Yeah!" Tim says. "You should say sorry!"
+
+The man stops laughing. He feels bad. He says sorry to Tim and Lily. He turns off his radio. He gives them some candy. He tells them they can play with his loop if they want.
+
+Tim and Lily take the candy. They say thank you to the man. They decide to play with his loop. They are not scared anymore. They are happy.
+Lily liked to grow flowers in her garden. She had red flowers, blue flowers, and pink flowers. But her favorite flowers were the yellow ones. They were bright and sunny, like the sun.
+
+One day, Lily saw a new flower in her garden. It was yellow, but it was not like the other flowers. It was tall and thin, and it had a small flame on top. Lily was curious. She went closer to the flower and said, "Hello, flower. What are you?"
+
+The flower answered, "I am not a flower. I am a candle. I came from a birthday cake. Someone made a wish and blew me away. Now I am here, in your garden."
+
+Lily was surprised. She had never seen a candle before. She asked, "What is a wish? What is a cake?"
+
+The candle explained, "A wish is something you want to happen. A cake is something you eat on a special day. You put candles on the cake and light them. Then you make a wish and blow them out. If you blow them all out, your wish might come true."
+
+Lily thought that sounded fun. She said, "Can I make a wish too? Can I blow you out?"
+
+The candle said, "Sure, you can. But you have to be careful. If you blow too hard, you might hurt me. If you blow too soft, I might not go out. You have to blow just right."
+
+Lily nodded. She thought of something she wanted to happen. She wanted to have more yellow flowers in her garden. She took a deep breath and blew gently on the candle. The flame flickered and went out. The candle smiled and said, "Good job, Lily. You blew just right. I hope your wish comes true."
+
+Lily smiled back and said, "Thank you, candle. You are very nice. I hope you like my garden. You can stay here as long as you want."
+
+The candle said, "Thank you, Lily. You are very kind. I like your garden. It is very pretty. Maybe I will grow some roots and become a flower too."
+
+Lily and the candle became friends. They talked and played every day. And soon, Lily's garden was full of yellow flowers.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand and look for shiny things. Sometimes they found coins or buttons or shells. They put them in a bucket and pretended they were treasure.
+
+One day, they found something very shiny and hard. It was clear and sparkled in the sun. Lily picked it up and showed it to Ben.
+
+"Look, Ben, what is this?" she asked.
+
+Ben looked at it and gasped. "Wow, Lily, that is a diamond! It is very pretty and rare. Where did you find it?"
+
+Lily pointed to a hole in the sand. "I found it here. Maybe someone lost it. Do you think we can keep it?"
+
+Ben shook his head. "No, Lily, we can't keep it. It is not ours. Maybe it belongs to someone who is looking for it. Maybe it is part of a ring or a necklace. We should give it to a grown-up. They can help us find the owner."
+
+Lily nodded. She knew Ben was right. It was not normal to find a diamond in the park. She wanted to be nice and honest. She put the diamond in her pocket and they ran to find a grown-up. They hoped the diamond would make someone very happy.
+Tom and Lily were twins. They liked to play with their toys and share their snacks. But sometimes they fought and made a mess. Mom and Dad did not like that. They said, "If you fight and make a mess, you will be punished. No TV, no candy, no fun."
+
+One day, Tom and Lily saw a big box in the living room. It had a bow and a tag. It said, "To Tom and Lily, from Grandma and Grandpa. A gift for being good." Tom and Lily were excited. They wanted to open the box and see what was inside. But Mom and Dad were not home. They had gone to the store.
+
+Tom said, "Let's open the box. It's our gift. We can play with it." Lily said, "No, we can't. Mom and Dad said we have to wait for them. They will be mad if we open the box." Tom said, "They won't know. Come on, it will be fun." Lily said, "No, it's wrong. We have to be good."
+
+Tom did not listen to Lily. He tore the bow and the paper. He opened the box. Inside was a big train set. It had tracks and cars and a station. It looked very fun. Tom said, "Wow, look at this. It's awesome. Let's play with it." He took out the train set and put it on the floor.
+
+Lily was scared. She said, "Tom, stop. You are being bad. Mom and Dad will see the mess. They will punish us. Put it back in the box." Tom said, "No, I want to play with it. It's our gift. We can do what we want." He turned on the train and made it go around the tracks. He made noises and laughed.
+
+Lily was sad. She did not want to play with the train. She did not want to be bad. She wanted to be good. She sat on the couch and cried. She did not know what to do.
+
+Soon, Mom and Dad came home. They saw the box and the train and the mess. They were angry. They said, "Tom and Lily, what did you do? You opened the box without us. You made a mess. You were bad. You are punished. No TV, no candy, no fun."
+
+Tom and Lily were confused. They said, "But it was our gift. From Grandma and Grandpa. For being good." Mom and Dad said, "No, it was not your gift. It was a gift for your cousin Jake. He is sick and in the hospital. Grandma and Grandpa asked us to keep it here until they visit him. They wanted to surprise him. You ruined the surprise. You were not good. You were selfish and naughty."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry. We did not know. We thought it was our gift. We wanted to play with it." Mom and Dad said, "We know you did not know. But you should have waited for us. You should have listened to Lily. She was right. You were wrong. You have to learn to be good. You have to say sorry to Grandma and Grandpa and Jake. And you have to help us clean up the mess and fix the box and the train."
+
+Tom and Lily said, "We will. We are sorry. We will be good." They hugged Mom and Dad and said, "We love you." Mom and Dad hugged them back and said, "We love you too. But you are still punished. No TV, no candy, no fun." Tom and Lily nodded. They knew they deserved it. They hoped Jake would like the train. They hoped he would get better soon. They learned their lesson. They never opened a box without permission again.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toy trucks in the garden. They liked to load them with sand and pretend they were working on a big construction site. They made noises like "vroom, vroom" and "beep, beep" as they drove their trucks around.
+
+"Look, Anna, I have more sand than you!" Ben said, showing off his truck.
+
+"No, you don't, Ben, you are ignorant!" Anna said, feeling angry. "You have less sand than me, see?" She pointed at her truck, which was full of sand.
+
+Ben did not like being called ignorant. He thought Anna was being mean and bossy. He wanted to make her sorry. He had an idea. He saw a bowl of sugar on the table, where their mom had left it after making lemonade. He sneaked over to the table and grabbed a handful of sugar. He ran back to his truck and dumped the sugar on top of his sand.
+
+"Ha, ha, Anna, now I have more sand than you!" Ben said, laughing. "And it is sweet sand, too!"
+
+Anna looked at Ben's truck and saw the white sugar sparkling on the sand. She was curious. She wanted to taste the sweet sand. She reached out her hand and scooped some of it into her mouth.
+
+"Yuck!" Anna spat out the sugar and sand. It was gritty and sour and nasty. She felt sick. She started to cry.
+
+"Ben, you are bad! You tricked me! You gave me dirty sugar!" Anna sobbed.
+
+Their mom heard Anna crying and came out to the garden. She saw the sugar on the table and on Ben's truck. She saw Anna's mouth and hands covered with sugar and sand. She understood what had happened. She was very angry.
+
+"Ben, how could you do that to your sister? That was very naughty and dangerous! You could have hurt her! And you wasted the sugar, too! Go to your room right now and think about what you did!" Mom scolded Ben.
+
+Ben felt ashamed and scared. He knew he had done something wrong. He wished he had not been so ignorant. He wished he had not tried to make Anna sorry. He wished he had shared his sand with her. He ran to his room and cried.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the garden. Lily had a soft bear and Tom had a ball with spikes. Tom liked to throw his ball high in the air and catch it. Lily liked to hug her bear and make it talk.
+
+"Can I play with your bear?" Tom asked Lily.
+
+"No, it is mine. You have your ball," Lily said.
+
+"But I want to try your bear. It looks nice and cozy," Tom said.
+
+"No, go away. You might hurt my bear with your spike ball," Lily said.
+
+Tom felt sad and angry. He threw his ball hard at Lily's bear. The ball hit the bear and made a hole in its fur. The bear's stuffing came out. Lily screamed and cried. She picked up her bear and ran to her mom.
+
+"Look what Tom did! He broke my bear!" Lily said.
+
+Mom looked at the bear and saw the hole. She looked at Tom and saw his sorry face.
+
+"Tom, why did you do that?" Mom asked.
+
+"I was mad at Lily. She did not let me play with her bear," Tom said.
+
+"That was not nice, Tom. You should not hurt other people's things. You should say sorry to Lily and accept that she can choose what to play with," Mom said.
+
+Tom felt bad. He knew he was wrong. He walked to Lily and said, "I am sorry, Lily. I should not have thrown my ball at your bear. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily looked at Tom and saw his sorry eyes. She looked at her bear and saw the hole. She felt sad and angry. But she also felt sorry for Tom. She knew he was her friend.
+
+"It is okay, Tom. I forgive you. But you have to be more careful with your ball. And you have to accept that sometimes I want to play with my bear alone," Lily said.
+
+Tom nodded. He hugged Lily and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. Can I help you fix your bear?"
+
+Lily smiled. She hugged Tom and said, "Yes, you can. Come on, let's go to Mom. She has some thread and a needle. We can make your bear better."
+
+They went to Mom and asked for her help. Mom was happy to see them get along. She helped them sew the hole in the bear's fur. The bear looked almost as good as new. Lily and Tom thanked Mom and went back to the garden. They played with their toys and shared them nicely. They learned to accept each other's choices and to say sorry when they made a mistake. They were happy and had fun.
+Lily and Ben were excited to see the fireworks. They put on their warm coats and hats and followed Mom and Dad to the park. There were many people and noises there. Lily held Mom's hand and Ben held Dad's hand.
+
+"Look, the fireworks are starting!" Mom said, pointing to the sky. Lily and Ben looked up and saw bright colors and shapes. They heard loud booms and crackles. They smiled and clapped. They liked the fireworks.
+
+But then, a firework came too close to the ground. It made a big bang and sparks flew everywhere. Some people screamed and ran away. Lily and Ben felt fearful. They did not like the firework.
+
+Lily pinched Mom's hand hard. She wanted to go home. Mom hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily. It was an accident. The firework is gone now. We are safe."
+
+Ben pinched Dad's hand too. He wanted to go home as well. Dad rubbed his head and said, "It's okay, Ben. It was a mistake. The firework is over now. We are fine."
+
+Mom and Dad took Lily and Ben away from the park. They went back to their car and drove home. They sang songs and told jokes to make Lily and Ben feel better. They said they loved them very much. Lily and Ben felt less fearful. They still liked the fireworks, but only from far away.
+Lily and Sam are at the zoo with Mom and Dad. They see many animals, but they want to watch the lions. Lions are big and wild. They have yellow fur and sharp teeth. They can roar very loud.
+
+They go to the lion house and look for the lions. They see one lion sleeping on a rock. He looks very lazy. They see another lion walking around. He looks very bored. They see a third lion playing with a ball. He looks very happy.
+
+Lily and Sam want to play with the lion too. They think he is cute and funny. They run to the fence and wave at him. The lion sees them and stops playing. He comes closer and looks at them. He opens his mouth and roars.
+
+Lily and Sam are scared. They think the lion is angry and wants to eat them. They scream and run back to Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad hug them and tell them not to worry. The lion is not angry, he is just saying hello. He is safe behind the fence. He cannot hurt them.
+
+Lily and Sam calm down and look at the lion again. He is still playing with the ball. He looks very happy. Lily and Sam smile and wave at him. They are not scared anymore. They think he is cute and funny. They watch the lion until it is time to go home.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the park with their ball. One day, they see a big puddle of mud. Tom wants to jump in the puddle and get dirty. Lily says no.
+
+"Tom, don't jump in the puddle. You will make your clothes and shoes dirty. Mom will be mad at you. We have to remain clean," Lily says.
+
+But Tom does not listen to Lily. He jumps in the puddle and splashes mud everywhere. He laughs and says, "This is fun! Come on, Lily, join me!"
+
+Lily shakes her head. She does not want to get dirty. She stays away from the puddle and watches Tom. She says, "Tom, you are silly. You will regret it later."
+
+Soon, it is time to go home. Tom and Lily walk back to their house. Tom is covered in mud. He feels cold and wet. He sees his mom waiting for them at the door. She is not happy.
+
+"Tom, what have you done? You are so dirty! You have to go to the bathroom and take a bath right now. And you have to rub your clothes and shoes with soap and water. You have to learn to be clean and tidy," Mom says.
+
+Tom feels sorry. He wishes he had listened to Lily. He says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I was having fun in the puddle. I didn't think about the consequences."
+
+Mom says, "I know you like to have fun, Tom. But you have to be careful and respectful of your things and yourself. Being clean is important for your health and your appearance. Next time, think before you act."
+
+Tom nods. He goes to the bathroom and takes a bath. He rubs his clothes and shoes with soap and water. He learns his lesson. He says to Lily, "You were right, Lily. I was silly. I should have remained clean. Thank you for being smart and good."
+
+Lily smiles. She says, "You're welcome, Tom. I'm glad you learned your lesson. I love you, brother."
+
+They hug each other. They are happy. They are clean.
+Lily and Sam liked to play pirate in the garden. They had a big box that was their ship, and a stick that was their sword. They wore hats and eye patches and said "Arrr!" a lot.
+
+One day, they saw a shiny thing in the grass. It was a coin with a picture of a pirate on it. Lily and Sam were very excited. They thought it was real pirate treasure.
+
+They ran to their ship with the coin and hid it under a blanket. They whispered to each other about what they could buy with it. Maybe a new toy, or a cake, or a book.
+
+But then they heard a voice. It was their neighbor, Mr. Jones. He was looking for something in the grass. He looked sad and worried.
+
+Lily and Sam felt sorry for him. They peeked out of their ship and saw that he had a metal detector. He was looking for his coin collection that he had lost.
+
+Lily and Sam were thoughtful. They knew what they had to do. They got out of their ship and walked to Mr. Jones. They gave him the coin and said they had found it.
+
+Mr. Jones was very happy and grateful. He thanked them and gave them a hug. He said they were very kind and honest pirates.
+
+Lily and Sam smiled. They felt good. They didn't need the coin to have fun. They had each other and their imagination. They went back to their ship and sailed away.
+Sam and Lily were young and liked to play with toys. They had many toys in their room, but they did not like to put them away. Their room was messy and their mom was not happy.
+
+One day, mom gave them a new toy. It was a magic wand that could make things shrink or grow. She told them to be careful and not use it on themselves or each other. She said they could only use it on their toys and only in their room.
+
+Sam and Lily were excited and wanted to try the magic wand. They took turns making their toys shrink and grow. They had fun and laughed a lot. They made their teddy bear very big and their car very small. They made their doll very small and their ball very big.
+
+But they forgot to listen to mom. They started to use the magic wand on each other. Sam made Lily's hair shrink and Lily made Sam's nose grow. They thought it was funny and did not stop. They made each other's arms and legs and ears and eyes shrink and grow.
+
+Soon, they looked very silly and strange. They did not look like themselves anymore. They looked like messy monsters. They were scared and sad. They wanted to be normal again. They tried to use the magic wand to fix each other, but they did not know how. They made things worse.
+
+They heard mom coming to their room. They hid under the bed and hoped she would not see them. They wished they had listened to mom and not used the magic wand on each other. They wished they had put away their toys and not made their room messy. They wished they had been good and not bad. They learned their lesson.
+Anna and Ben love to bake with Mom. They help her to mix flour, sugar, eggs and butter in a big bowl. They make balls of dough and put them on a tray. Mom puts the tray in the oven and sets a timer.
+
+"Can we make a package for Grandma?" Anna asks. Grandma lives far away and they miss her a lot.
+
+"Sure, we can do that," Mom says. "We can use some paper and a ribbon to wrap the cookies."
+
+They wait for the timer to beep. Then Mom takes out the tray and lets the cookies cool down. They smell yummy. Anna and Ben each take one and eat it. They are soft and sweet.
+
+Mom gives them some paper and a red ribbon. They wrap the cookies in the paper and tie the ribbon in a bow. They write "To Grandma, we love you" on a card and stick it on the package.
+
+"Can we go to the post office now?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, let's go," Mom says. "Grandma will be so happy to get your package."
+
+They put on their coats and shoes and go to the car. They drive to the post office and give the package to a nice lady. She puts a stamp on it and puts it in a big box.
+
+"Bye bye, package," Anna and Ben say. "Have a good trip to Grandma."
+
+They hope Grandma will like their cookies and their card. They are proud of their baking and their package. They hug Mom and say thank you. They love to bake with Mom.
+Sara was a child who liked to have new things. She had many new toys, new clothes, and new books. She did not like to share her new things with anyone. She wanted to keep them all for herself.
+
+One day, Sara had a new doll. The doll had long hair, a pretty dress, and shiny shoes. Sara loved her new doll very much. She took her new doll everywhere. She did not let anyone touch her new doll.
+
+Sara's friend Anna came to play with her. Anna saw Sara's new doll and wanted to play with it too. She asked Sara, "Can I play with your new doll? She is so pretty."
+
+Sara said, "No, you can't. She is my new doll. You can play with my old toys. They are not new. They are old and boring."
+
+Anna felt sad and angry. She said, "That is not nice, Sara. You are a bad friend. You should share your new things. If you don't share, your new things will spoil. They will get dirty, broken, or lost. Then you will have nothing."
+
+Sara did not listen to Anna. She said, "I don't care. I don't want to share. My new things will not spoil. They will stay new and beautiful. You are just jealous. Go away."
+
+Anna did not want to play with Sara anymore. She went away and found another friend who liked to share. Sara stayed alone with her new doll. She did not have any fun. She did not know that Anna was right. Her new things would spoil soon. And she would lose her friends too.
+Sara and Ben were playing on the beach. They liked to look for shells and rocks. Sara found a big shell that was shiny and had many colors. She was very happy.
+
+"Look, Ben, look at my shell!" she said. "It is so fancy and pretty!"
+
+Ben came to see the shell. He liked it too. He wanted to have it for himself. He tried to take it from Sara's hand.
+
+"Give me the shell, Sara!" he said. "I want it!"
+
+"No, Ben, no!" Sara said. "It is my shell! I found it first!"
+
+They both pulled the shell. They did not want to share. They were angry and loud.
+
+Their mom heard them. She came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting over the shell.
+
+"Stop, Sara and Ben, stop!" she said. "Why are you fighting? You have so many shells and rocks. You can share them with each other."
+
+She took the shell from their hands. She removed it from their reach. She put it on a high rock.
+
+"Look at the shell, Sara and Ben," she said. "It is very fancy and pretty, but it is not worth fighting. Fighting is not nice. Sharing is nice. If you want to play with the shell, you have to take turns. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They felt sorry. They said sorry to each other. They hugged and smiled.
+
+"Can we play with the shell now, mom?" they asked.
+
+"Yes, you can, Sara and Ben," mom said. "But remember to share and be nice. And don't forget to say thank you to the shell for being so fancy and pretty."
+
+Sara and Ben said thank you to the shell. They took turns to hold it and look at it. They played nicely on the beach. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was the fridge. They pretended it was a spaceship, a castle, or a store. They put stickers and magnets on it to make it look fun.
+
+One day, Mom said she had a surprise for them. She brought a big box into the kitchen and opened it. Inside was a new fridge. It was shiny and white, with a water dispenser and a freezer drawer. Mom said it was better than the old one, which was dull and noisy.
+
+Ben and Lily were not happy. They did not want a new fridge. They wanted their old one, with all their stickers and magnets. They cried and said they hated the new fridge. Mom tried to calm them down and explain that the old one was broken and had to go. She said they could put new stickers and magnets on the new one, and it would be just as fun.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not listen. They ran to their room and slammed the door. They did not want to play with the new fridge. They did not want to play with anything. They sat on their bed and sulked.
+
+After a while, they heard a knock on the door. It was Dad. He came in with a smile and a big hug. He said he had something for them. He showed them a photo album. It had pictures of them when they were babies, and when they were playing with the old fridge. He said he had saved some of their stickers and magnets, and they could keep them as a memory.
+
+Ben and Lily looked at the photo album. They saw how happy they were with the old fridge. They also saw how much Mom and Dad loved them. They felt sorry for being mean and rude. They realized that the old fridge was just a thing, and what mattered was their family.
+
+They hugged Dad and said they were sorry. They said they wanted to see the new fridge and try it out. Dad said he was glad and proud of them. He said they were growing up and learning to accept change. He said he had one more surprise for them. He took them to the kitchen and opened the freezer drawer. Inside was a big tub of ice cream. He said they could have some as a treat.
+
+Ben and Lily smiled and cheered. They thanked Dad and Mom for the new fridge and the ice cream. They said they loved them very much. They gave them a big kiss. Then they scooped some ice cream and shared it with each other. They decided that the new fridge was not so bad after all. It was different, but it was still fun. And it had ice cream.
+Ben likes to help his mom bake cookies. He kneels on a chair and watches her mix flour, sugar, butter and eggs in a big bowl. He sees her use a spoon to measure some vanilla and a cup to measure some chocolate chips. He wants to measure too, so he asks his mom if he can.
+
+"Sure, you can help me, Ben," his mom says. She gives him a small spoon and a small bowl. She shows him how to scoop some sugar and put it in the bowl. "This is one measure of sugar," she says. "We need four measures for the cookies."
+
+Ben nods and tries to do the same. He scoops some sugar and puts it in the bowl. He counts, "One, two, three, four." He is proud of himself. He looks at his mom and smiles.
+
+"Good job, Ben," his mom says. She pours the sugar from his bowl into the big bowl. She stirs everything together and makes a soft dough. She takes some dough and rolls it into a ball. She puts it on a wide baking sheet. She does it again and again until the sheet is full of dough balls. She leaves some space between them. "These will be our cookies," she says. "They will grow bigger and flatter in the oven."
+
+Ben watches her with wonder. He wants to touch the dough balls, but his mom says, "No, they are hot. We have to wait until they are done." She puts the baking sheet in the oven and sets a timer. She tells Ben to wash his hands and face. He does as he is told. He likes to help his mom bake cookies. He can't wait to taste them. He thinks they will be yummy.
+Lily and Tom liked to play by the river. The river was cool and made a nice sound. They saw many things in the water: fish, rocks, sticks, and leaves. Sometimes they threw stones and watched the ripples.
+
+One day, they found a big stick that looked like a bow. Tom said, "I can be a hunter with this bow. I can shoot the fish and the birds." Lily said, "No, Tom, that is not nice. The fish and the birds are our friends. You can pretend to shoot the clouds and the trees."
+
+Tom agreed and they took turns with the bow. They aimed at the sky and the forest and made whoosh sounds. They had fun and laughed a lot.
+
+But then, Tom saw a duck swimming in the river. He thought it would be fun to shoot the duck. He did not tell Lily. He took the bow and pulled the stick. He let go and the stick flew towards the duck.
+
+Lily saw what Tom did and shouted, "No, Tom, no! Don't hurt the duck!" The duck heard Lily and saw the stick. It was scared and dived under the water. The stick missed the duck and landed in the river.
+
+Tom felt bad and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry, duck. I was silly and mean. I won't do it again." Lily said, "It's okay, Tom. I'm glad the duck is safe. But you have to be careful with the bow. It can hurt someone." Tom nodded and said, "You're right, Lily. The bow is not a toy. It is a tool. We should only use it for good things."
+
+They hugged and said sorry to the duck. The duck came out of the water and quacked. It looked at them and nodded. It forgave them and swam away. Lily and Tom smiled and waved. They learned a lesson and went home.

+Poppy was a polite cat who liked to travel. She always said hello and thank you to the animals she met on her trips. One day, she decided to visit the farm, where she had many friends.
+
+She walked along the road, looking at the flowers and the trees. She saw a cow, a sheep, and a horse. She greeted them and asked how they were. They were happy to see her and invited her to stay for a while. Poppy thanked them and said she would come back later.
+
+She continued her walk until she reached the barn. There, she saw a mouse, a rat, and a cat. They were not very polite. They did not say hello or thank you. They only looked at her with mean eyes. Poppy felt scared and sad.
+
+"Who are you and what are you doing here?" the mouse asked.
+
+"I am Poppy and I like to travel. I came to visit the farm and make new friends," Poppy said.
+
+"Well, you are not welcome here. This is our barn and we don't like strangers. Go away or we will chase you," the rat said.
+
+"That's not very nice. I did not do anything wrong. I just wanted to say hello and be friendly," Poppy said.
+
+"We don't care. We don't need friends. We only need food and a place to sleep. Now, leave or we will bite you," the cat said.
+
+Poppy was very afraid and hurt. She did not want to fight or get hurt. She turned around and ran away from the barn. She felt tears in her eyes. She did not understand why they were so rude and mean.
+
+She ran back to the road, where she met the cow, the sheep, and the horse. They saw that she was sad and asked her what happened. Poppy told them about the mouse, the rat, and the cat. They felt sorry for her and hugged her.
+
+"Don't worry, Poppy. They are not nice animals. They are always mean and selfish. They don't have any friends. You are a polite and kind cat. You have many friends. We are your friends. We like you and we are happy that you came to visit us," the cow said.
+
+"Yes, Poppy. You are a good cat. You like to travel and learn new things. You are brave and curious. You have a big heart. We are proud of you and we are glad that you are our friend," the sheep said.

+
+Poppy felt better and smiled. She thanked them and hugged them back. She realized that they were right. She was a polite cat who liked to travel. She had many friends who cared for her and supported her. She did not need to be afraid or sad. She was happy and proud.

+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car that could make noises and move. The car had a button on the side that could change the noises and the speed. Sara and Tom liked to take turns pressing the button and driving the car.
+
+One day, they saw a new show on TV. It was about a famous racer who had a very fast and shiny car. The racer won many races and got many prizes. Sara and Tom wanted to be like the racer. They thought that if they pressed the button a lot, their car would become faster and shinier too.
+
+They ran to their room and grabbed their car. They started to press the button over and over again, hoping to make their car better. But instead of making their car better, they broke the button. The car stopped making noises and moving. Sara and Tom were sad and angry. They blamed each other for breaking the button.
+
+Their mom heard them fighting and came to see what was wrong. She saw the broken car and the unhappy twins. She asked them what happened. Sara and Tom told her about the show and the button. Their mom shook her head and said, "You should not try to change your car. Your car was already good and fun. You should be happy with what you have and take care of it. Trying to be like someone else can make you lose what you love."
+
+Sara and Tom felt sorry for breaking their car and for fighting. They hugged each other and said sorry. They asked their mom if she could fix their car. Their mom smiled and said, "I will try, but it may take some time. Next time, be careful with your toys and don't press the button too much. And remember, you don't need to be famous to be happy. You have each other and that is enough."
+
+Sara and Tom nodded and thanked their mom. They learned their lesson and decided to play with their other toys until their car was fixed. They also decided to watch less TV and enjoy more their own games. They realized that their car was not the most important thing. The most important thing was their friendship.
+Anna and Ben were friends. They liked to play together in the park. One day, they saw a big truck with many mattresses on it. The truck stopped near a big house. The house was very pretty and had many windows and flowers.

+
+"I want to see the mattresses," Anna said. "Maybe they are soft and fluffy. Let's go and touch them."
+
+Anna and Ben ran to the truck. They climbed on the mattresses and jumped on them. They felt very happy and laughed a lot. They did not see the man who drove the truck. He was inside the house, talking to the people who lived there.
+
+After a while, the man came out of the house. He saw Anna and Ben on his truck. He was very angry. He shouted at them and told them to get off. He said they were dirty and naughty. He said they ruined his mattresses.
+
+Anna and Ben were scared. They did not understand why the man was so mad. They thought they were just having fun. They tried to say sorry, but the man did not listen. He grabbed them and threw them off the truck. He hit them with a stick. He said he would call the police.
+
+Anna and Ben cried. They ran away from the truck and the house. They had many bruises and scratches. They felt very sad and hurt. They wished they never saw the mattresses. They wished they stayed in the park. They learned a hard lesson. They learned that some people are not nice, and some things are not for them.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. But today it was raining and they had to stay inside. They were very bored. They looked at their toys, but they did not want to play with them. They looked at their books, but they did not want to read them. They looked at their TV, but they did not want to watch it.
+
+"Let's go outside and slide on the grass!" Ben said. He saw the rain make the grass wet and slippery.
+
+"No, we can't. Mom said we have to stay inside. It's too cold and wet outside. We will get sick." Lily said. She was a good girl who listened to Mom.
+
+"Who cares? It will be fun. Come on, Lily, don't be a chicken." Ben said. He was a naughty boy who did not listen to Mom. He put on his boots and coat and ran outside.
+
+Lily did not want to be a chicken. She wanted to have fun too. She put on her boots and coat and followed Ben outside. They ran to the backyard and saw a big puddle. Ben jumped into the puddle and splashed water everywhere. He laughed and said, "This is so fun! Come on, Lily, join me!"
+
+Lily hesitated. She saw the puddle was dirty and muddy. She did not want to get dirty and muddy. But she did not want to be a chicken either. She jumped into the puddle and splashed water with Ben. They laughed and said, "This is so fun!"
+
+They saw a hill with a slide. Ben ran to the hill and climbed up. He slid down the slide and landed in another puddle. He laughed and said, "This is even more fun! Come on, Lily, slide with me!"
+
+Lily followed Ben to the hill and climbed up. She slid down the slide and landed in the same puddle as Ben. But she did not laugh. She screamed. She felt something sharp and painful in her leg. She looked down and saw a piece of glass sticking out of her leg. She saw blood coming out of her leg. She cried and said, "This is not fun! This is bad! Help me, Ben, help me!"
+
+Ben looked at Lily and saw her leg. He saw the glass and the blood. He felt scared and sorry. He ran to Lily and tried to help her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily, I'm sorry! I didn't know there was glass in the puddle. Don't cry, Lily, don't cry! I'll get Mom, I'll get Mom!"
+
+He ran to the house and called Mom. Mom came outside and saw Lily and Ben. She saw Lily's leg and Ben's face. She knew what happened. She was angry and sad. She said, "What have you done? Why did you go outside? Why did you not listen to me? You are in big trouble, Ben. And you, Lily, you need to go to the hospital. Come on, let's go. Now."
+
+She took Lily and Ben to the car and drove to the hospital. Lily and Ben were quiet and sad. They wished they had stayed inside. They wished they had listened to Mom. They learned a hard lesson. Sometimes, being bored is better than being hurt.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park and in the house. One day, they decided to play hide and seek. Lily said, "I will count to ten and you hide, Tom." Tom said, "OK, Lily. Don't look." Lily closed her eyes and counted. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Ready or not, here I come!"
+
+Lily looked for Tom everywhere. She looked under the slide, behind the tree, in the sandbox, but she could not find him. She wondered where he was. She saw a big box near the fence. She thought maybe Tom was hiding in the box. She walked to the box and opened it. She was very surprised. Inside the box, there was a ghost!
+
+The ghost was white and had big eyes and a mouth. It looked at Lily and said, "Boo!" Lily was scared. She screamed and ran away. The ghost came out of the box and followed her. It said, "Wait, Lily. Don't be afraid. I am not a bad ghost. I am a friendly ghost. I just wanted to play with you and Tom."
+
+Lily stopped and turned around. She saw the ghost and Tom. Tom was laughing. He said, "Lily, this is not a real ghost. This is my brother, Sam. He is wearing a sheet. He wanted to help me hide and scare you. It was a joke. We are sorry. Are you mad at us?"
+
+Lily looked at Tom and Sam. She was not scared anymore. She was a little angry, but also a little amused. She said, "You two are very silly. You tricked me. That was not a nice joke. But I forgive you. You are still my friends. But next time, don't hide in a box with a ghost. That is not ordinary. That is spooky."
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play soccer with their team. Their team has red shirts and blue shorts. They practice every week with their coach, who is nice and funny.
+
+One day, they have a big game against another team. The other team has yellow shirts and green shorts. They look very good and fast. Tim and Sam are a little scared, but they want to try their best.
+
+The game starts and the other team scores a goal. Tim and Sam are sad, but they do not give up. They run and kick and pass the ball. They work together with their team. They have fun.
+
+Then, Tim sees a chance. He gets the ball and runs to the goal. He sees Sam open and passes the ball to him. Sam catches the ball and shoots. The ball goes in the goal. Tim and Sam are very happy. They yell and hug and jump. Their team cheers for them.
+
+The coach is proud of them. He says, "You did great, Tim and Sam. You are regular stars. You helped your team win the game. Well done!" Tim and Sam smile and thank the coach. They are happy to be part of the team. They love soccer.
+Tom and Lily were friends. They liked to play in the park. Today, they saw a big ball in the grass. It was red and shiny. It looked like a toy.
+
+"Let's play with it!" Tom said. He ran to the ball and picked it up. Lily followed him.
+
+The ball was warm and soft. It made a funny noise. Tom and Lily laughed. They threw the ball to each other. They had fun.
+
+But the ball was not a toy. It was a bomb. Someone had left it in the park. It was very bad.
+
+The ball started to glow. It glowed brighter and brighter. Tom and Lily did not know what it meant. They were nervous. They wanted to drop the ball, but it was too late.
+
+The ball exploded. It made a loud boom. It hurt Tom and Lily. They fell to the ground. They did not get up. They did not play anymore. They were gone.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play in the garden. She had a big box of toys that she took outside every day. She had dolls, cars, balls, and books. She liked to make up stories with her toys and have fun.
+
+One day, she saw something shiny in the grass. She ran over to see what it was. She picked it up and looked at it. It was a horn. It was silver and had a hole at one end. She wondered what it was for. She put it to her mouth and blew. It made a loud noise. "Toot toot!" she said.
+
+She was very happy with her new toy. She ran around the garden, blowing the horn and making noise. She pretended she was a train, a car, a boat, and a lion. She had so much fun that she forgot about her other toys.
+
+When her mom came outside, she saw Lily with the horn. She also saw the big mess she had made. Toys were everywhere. Some were in the dirt, some were in the flowers, some were in the water. Her mom was not happy. She told Lily to stop blowing the horn and to clean up her toys.
+
+Lily was sad. She liked the horn. She did not want to clean up. She said she was sorry. She asked her mom where the horn came from. Her mom said it was her dad's. He used to play it when he was in a band. He had left it in the shed and forgotten about it.
+
+Lily said she wanted to keep the horn. She said she would clean up her toys and be good. Her mom said she could keep the horn, but only if she promised to play with it nicely and not make too much noise. She also said she had to ask her dad first.
+
+Lily agreed. She hugged her mom and said thank you. She put the horn in her box and started to pick up her toys. She was glad she had discovered the horn. It was her favorite toy now. She hoped her dad would let her keep it. She wanted to play it again and make more stories.
+Tim and Mia are playing with blocks in the living room. They like to build towers and houses and cars with the blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes and textures. Some are smooth and some are rough. Some are hard and some are soft.
+
+"Look, Mia, I made a car with the smooth blocks," Tim says, showing his creation to his sister.
+
+"That's nice, Tim, but I like the rough blocks better. They feel more fun to touch," Mia says, rubbing a block with her fingers.
+
+They keep playing until they hear their mom calling them.
+
+"Tim, Mia, it's time for your nap. Come to your room, please," mom says.
+
+Tim and Mia groan. They don't want to nap. They want to play more.
+
+"But mom, we're not sleepy. Can we play a little longer?" Tim asks.
+
+"No, sweeties, you need to nap. You had a busy morning and you'll be cranky if you don't rest. Come on, I'll read you a story," mom says.
+
+Tim and Mia follow mom to their room. They have a bunk bed. Tim sleeps on the top and Mia sleeps on the bottom. Mom gives them each a hug and a kiss and tucks them in. She picks a book from the shelf and reads them a story about a bear and a honey pot.
+
+Tim and Mia listen to the story, but they are not very interested. They think the story is poor. They have heard it many times before and they know what happens. They wish mom would read them a new story.
+
+Soon, they close their eyes and fall asleep. They dream of playing with blocks and making new things. They don't notice the texture of their blankets or the sound of mom's voice. They are happy and peaceful in their nap.
+Lily was a very obedient girl. She always did what her mom and dad told her to do. She ate her vegetables, brushed her teeth, and went to bed on time. She liked to read books and play with her dolls.
+
+One night, she heard a loud noise outside her window. She got scared and ran to her mom and dad's room. She knocked on the door and said, "Mom, Dad, can I sleep with you? There is a scary noise outside."
+
+Her mom and dad opened the door and hugged her. They said, "Don't worry, Lily. It's just the wind. It can't hurt you. You are safe with us."
+
+They let her sleep in their bed, but they told her to be quiet and not disturb them. They had to wake up early for work.
+
+Lily nodded and cuddled with them. She felt warm and cozy. She closed her eyes and tried to sleep.
+
+But she could not sleep. She was still hungry. She remembered that she did not finish her broccoli at dinner. She did not like broccoli. It was green and bitter. She wanted something sweet and yummy.
+
+She got out of the bed and tiptoed to the kitchen. She opened the fridge and saw a cake. It was chocolate and had frosting and sprinkles. It looked delicious. She took a big slice and ate it. She felt happy and full.
+
+She did not hear her mom and dad wake up and follow her. They saw her eating the cake and frowned. They said, "Lily, what are you doing? You are not supposed to eat cake at night. You are supposed to eat your broccoli. You are disturbing our sleep and your health."
+
+Lily looked at them and felt sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, Mom, Dad. I was hungry and scared. I don't like broccoli. I like cake. Can I have some more?"
+
+Her mom and dad shook their heads and said, "No, Lily. You can't have more cake. You have to eat your broccoli. It is good for you. It makes you strong and smart. You have to be obedient and listen to us. We love you and want you to be healthy."
+
+Lily sighed and said, "OK, Mom, Dad. I will eat my broccoli. But can I have some cake tomorrow?"
+
+Her mom and dad smiled and said, "Yes, Lily. You can have some cake tomorrow. But only after you eat your broccoli. Now, let's go back to bed. We have to sleep and dream."
+
+They took her back to their bed and tucked her in. They kissed her and said, "Good night, Lily. We love you."
+
+Lily said, "Good night, Mom, Dad. I love you too." She snuggled with them and fell asleep. She dreamed of cake and broccoli.
+Lily and Ben like to play shop. They have a big box full of toys and things. They put some things on a table and make signs with paper and crayons. They pretend to sell the things to each other and to their teddy bears.
+
+One day, Lily finds a shiny necklace in the box. It has a red heart and a silver chain. She thinks it is very pretty and wants to keep it. She puts it on her neck and hides it under her shirt. She does not want to sell it to anyone.
+
+Ben sees the necklace when Lily bends down to pick up a toy. He likes it too. He asks Lily if he can touch it. Lily says no. She says it is hers and she does not want to share. Ben feels sad. He thinks Lily is not nice.
+
+He looks around the table and sees a jar of honey. He knows Lily likes honey. It is sweet and sticky. He has an idea. He picks up the jar and says to Lily, "I will trade you this honey for your necklace. Honey is very good. You can eat it with bread or fruit. Do you want some?"
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She likes honey, but she likes the necklace more. She says no. She says the necklace is more pretty and more special. She does not want to trade. Ben feels angry. He thinks Lily is not fair.
+
+He decides to take the necklace from Lily. He grabs it and pulls it hard. Lily screams and tries to hold on. The chain breaks and the heart falls on the floor. Lily and Ben both cry. They have lost the necklace and the honey. They have also lost their fun. They wish they had been more kind.
+Ben and Sam were brothers. They liked to play in the field near their house. The field had many flowers and trees and birds. Ben and Sam had a ball. They kicked the ball to each other and ran and laughed.
+
+One day, a big dog came to the field. The dog was black and brown and had sharp teeth. The dog barked and growled and chased the ball. Ben and Sam were scared. They ran away from the dog. But the dog was faster. The dog caught the ball and bit it. The ball popped and made a loud noise.
+
+Ben and Sam were angry. They wanted their ball back. They threw sticks and stones at the dog. The dog dodged and snarled and kept the ball. Ben had an idea. He said to Sam, "Let's push the dog into the pond. The pond is deep and cold and muddy. The dog will drop the ball and swim away."
+
+Sam thought it was a good idea. He nodded and followed Ben. They crept behind the dog. The dog did not see them. Ben and Sam pushed the dog with all their strength. The dog yelped and fell into the pond. The ball flew out of the dog's mouth.
+
+Ben and Sam cheered. They ran to get the ball. But they were foolish. They did not look where they were going. They slipped on the wet grass and fell into the pond too. The pond was deep and cold and muddy. Ben and Sam splashed and cried and shivered. The dog swam to the shore and shook himself. He picked up the ball and ran away. Ben and Sam were wet and cold and sad. They had no ball and no fun. They wished they had not pushed the dog.
+Tim and Mia like to play with their dinosaur toys. They have big ones and small ones, green ones and red ones, loud ones and quiet ones. They make them run and roar and fight and eat.
+
+One day, they decide to play in the bathtub with their dinosaurs. They fill the tub with water and bubbles and put their dinosaurs inside. They pretend the tub is a big lake and the dinosaurs are swimming and splashing.
+
+Tim has a blue dinosaur that can dive. He makes it go under the water and then pop up again. Mia thinks that is fun and tries to do the same with her yellow dinosaur. But her dinosaur is not good at diving. It just floats on the water and makes bubbles.
+
+Tim laughs and says, "Your dinosaur is silly. It can't dive. It can only blow bubbles." Mia feels sad and says, "No, it's not silly. It's just different. It can do other things."
+
+She thinks for a moment and then has an idea. She grabs a cup and fills it with water. She says, "Watch this!" and pours the water over Tim's head. Tim is surprised and wet. He says, "Hey, that's not fair!" and grabs another cup. He pours water over Mia's head. Mia giggles and pours more water over Tim's head.
+
+Soon, they are both laughing and throwing water at each other and their dinosaurs. The water splashes everywhere and makes a big mess. The floor is wet and soapy and the dinosaurs are slippery and wet.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what is going on. She sees the messy tub and the messy kids and the messy dinosaurs. She says, "Oh, my! What are you doing? You are making a huge mess!"
+
+Tim and Mia look at Mom and smile. They say, "We are playing with our dinosaurs. They can dive and blow bubbles and splash. It's fun!"
+
+Mom shakes her head and smiles. She says, "Well, I'm glad you are having fun, but it's time to get out of the tub and dry off. And clean up this mess!"
+
+Tim and Mia say, "Okay, Mom." They get out of the tub and wrap themselves in towels. They pick up their dinosaurs and put them in a basket. They help Mom wipe the floor and the tub.
+
+Mom says, "Thank you for helping me. You are good kids. And you have very nice dinosaurs."
+
+Tim and Mia say, "You're welcome, Mom. We love you. And we love our dinosaurs." They hug Mom and their dinosaurs. They are happy.
+Tom and Mia were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big cage with a bird inside. The bird was unique. It had many colors and a long tail.
+
+"Wow, look at the bird!" Tom said. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is," Mia said. "But it looks sad. It wants to fly."
+
+Tom and Mia felt sorry for the bird. They wanted to help it. They looked around. No one was watching. They ran to the cage and opened the door.
+
+"Come on, bird, you can escape!" Tom said. He reached his hand inside the cage.
+
+But the bird did not like Tom. It was scared and angry. It bit Tom's finger hard. Tom screamed and pulled his hand back. He saw blood on his finger.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried. "The bird hurt me!"
+
+Mia was scared too. She ran away from the cage. She did not want to help the bird anymore.
+
+The bird saw the open door. It flew out of the cage. It was free. But it did not say thank you to Tom and Mia. It flew away and never came back.
+
+Tom and Mia were sad. They did not help the bird. They only made it mad. They ran to their moms and told them what happened. Their moms were not happy. They scolded Tom and Mia for being naughty. They took them home and put bandages on Tom's finger.
+
+Tom and Mia learned a lesson. They should not touch things that are not theirs. They should not try to help animals that do not want their help. They should listen to their moms and be good.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to learn new things. She had many books and toys in her room, but her favorite thing was her rug. Her rug was soft and warm and had many colors and shapes on it. She liked to sit on her rug and look at the pictures and letters on it.
+
+One day, Lily decided to learn how to spell her name. She knew that her name had four letters: L, I, L and Y. She looked at her rug and found the letters on it. She pointed to each letter and said it out loud. Then she tried to put them together to make her name. She said, "L-I-L-Y, Lily!"
+
+She was very happy and proud of herself. She wanted to show her mom what she learned. She ran to the door and called, "Mom, mom, come and see what I learned!" But she forgot to look where she was going and tripped over her toy car. She fell down and hurt her knee. She started to cry.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and came to her room. She saw Lily on the floor and ran to her. She picked her up and hugged her. She said, "Oh, Lily, what happened? Are you okay?" She saw the blood on her knee and got a band-aid from the drawer. She cleaned her wound and put the band-aid on it. She said, "There, there, it's okay. You are brave and strong. It will heal soon."
+
+Lily stopped crying and felt better. She smiled at her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you." She showed her mom her rug and said, "Look, mom, I learned how to spell my name. L-I-L-Y, Lily!" Her mom smiled and said, "Wow, Lily, that's amazing! You are very smart and clever. I'm so proud of you." She kissed her on the cheek and said, "I love you too, Lily."
+
+They sat on the rug and cuddled. They felt calm and happy. They looked at the rug and learned more words and shapes together. They had fun and laughed. Lily was glad that she had her mom and her rug. She thought, "This is the best day ever."
+Tom and Lily were playing in the sand. They had a big bucket and a small bucket. They wanted to make a sand castle. Tom had the big bucket and Lily had the small bucket.
+
+Lily was impatient. She wanted to use the big bucket. She said to Tom, "Give me the big bucket. It is my turn." Tom said, "No, it is not your turn. I am not done." Lily tried to grab the big bucket from Tom. Tom held on to the big bucket. They started to fight.
+
+Mom saw them fighting. She was not happy. She said, "Stop fighting. You have to share. You can take turns with the buckets. Or you can use both buckets together. Fighting is not nice."
+
+Tom and Lily stopped fighting. They felt sorry. They said, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Tom. Sorry, Lily." Mom smiled. She said, "It's okay. I'm glad you are sorry. Now, can you play nicely?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They decided to use both buckets together. They filled the big bucket with sand and turned it over. They made a big tower. Then they filled the small bucket with sand and turned it over. They made a small tower. They put the small tower on top of the big tower. They made a sand castle. They were happy. They said, "Look, Mom. We made a sand castle. We did it together." Mom clapped. She said, "Well done. You are good at sharing. Sharing is nice."
+Sara liked to work in the garden with her mom. She helped to water the plants and pull out the weeds. She loved to see the flowers and the fruits grow. Her favorite fruit was the tomato. She liked to eat them fresh or in a salad.
+
+One day, Sara saw a big red tomato on a vine. She wanted to pick it and show it to her mom. But before she could reach it, she heard a loud voice.
+
+"Hey, that's my tomato! Leave it alone!" It was Ben, the boy who lived next door. He was very bossy and mean. He always tried to take Sara's toys and snacks.
+
+Sara was scared and sad. She did not want to fight with Ben. She said, "But I work in the garden too. I help my mom. Can't we share the tomato?"
+
+Ben shook his head. He said, "No, this is my garden. I work harder than you. You are just a baby. Go away!"
+
+Sara felt tears in her eyes. She ran to her mom and hugged her. She told her what Ben said. Her mom was angry and sorry. She said, "Don't listen to him, Sara. You are a good girl. You work very well in the garden. You can have any tomato you want. Ben is just jealous and rude. He needs to learn to be nice and share."
+
+She took Sara's hand and walked to the fence. She called Ben and said, "Ben, I want to talk to you. You were very wrong to yell at Sara. She is my helper in the garden. She deserves to have a tomato. You should apologize to her and share your fruits with her. If you don't, you can't come to our garden anymore."
+
+Ben looked down and felt ashamed. He knew his mom would be mad if she heard what he did. He said, "I'm sorry, Sara. I was bossy and mean. You can have the tomato. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Sara smiled and nodded. She said, "Yes, I want to be your friend. Thank you for the tomato. Do you want to help me water the plants?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, I want to help you. Maybe we can have a salad later."
+
+Sara and Ben worked together in the garden. They had fun and learned to share. Their moms were proud and happy. They made a salad with the tomatoes and other fruits. They invited Ben to join them for lunch. They all enjoyed the food and the friendship.
+Lily was restless. She did not want to sleep. She wanted to play and have fun. She looked at her toys and books, but none of them seemed interesting. She wished she could go on an adventure.
+
+She decided to imagine a story in her head. She closed her eyes and thought of a big forest. She saw tall trees and green leaves. She heard birds and animals. She felt the wind and the sun. She smiled and imagined she was a brave explorer.
+
+She walked through the forest and looked for new things. She found a big rock and climbed on it. She found a shiny lake and splashed in it. She found a bright flower and smelled it. She was happy and curious.
+
+But then she heard a loud noise. She turned around and saw a big bear. The bear was angry and hungry. It growled and showed its teeth. It ran towards her. She was scared and ran away.
+
+She looked for a place to hide. She saw a small hut. She ran to the hut and opened the door. She hoped the hut was empty. But it was not. She saw a man inside. The man had a beard and a hat. He had an axe in his hand. He was chopping wood. He looked at her and said, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
+
+Lily did not know what to say. She was still scared of the bear. She pointed at the door and said, "Bear! Big bear! Help!"
+
+The man understood. He grabbed his axe and went to the door. He saw the bear outside. He shouted and waved his axe. The bear was afraid and ran away. The man saved Lily.
+
+Lily was relieved and grateful. She thanked the man and said, "You are brave and kind. What is your name?"
+
+The man smiled and said, "My name is Jack. And you?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "My name is Lily. I was imagining a story in my head. But it became too real. I'm sorry I bothered you."
+
+Jack said, "That's okay. I like stories too. Do you want to hear one?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, please."
+
+Jack said, "Okay. Come sit with me. I'll tell you a story about a magic beanstalk and a giant."
+
+Lily listened and imagined. She forgot she was restless. She felt sleepy and cozy. She closed her eyes and dreamed.
+Lily liked to dress up and play pretend. She had many hats and scarves and shoes in her big box. But her favorite thing to dress up with was a sheet. She could make the sheet into many things. She could be a ghost, a princess, a superhero, or a tent.
+
+One day, Lily found a new sheet in the closet. It was very big and soft and had many colors. Lily was very happy. She took the sheet to her room and spread it on the floor. She thought of what she could be with the sheet. She decided to be a cheerful rainbow.
+
+She wrapped the sheet around her and made a big smile. She ran to the mirror and looked at herself. She looked like a bright and beautiful rainbow. She felt very cheerful. She sang a song about rainbows and danced around her room.
+
+She wanted to show her mom and dad her rainbow dress. She ran to the living room where they were reading. She said, "Look at me! I am a rainbow!" She twirled and spun and showed them her sheet. Her mom and dad smiled and clapped. They said, "You are a very cheerful rainbow, Lily. We love your dress."
+
+Lily felt very proud and happy. She hugged her mom and dad and thanked them. She said, "I love you and I love my sheet. It is the best sheet ever." She went back to her room and played some more with her sheet. She had a lot of fun dressing up and pretending. She was a cheerful rainbow.
+Tom and Mia were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with a swing, a slide and a zip line. A zip line was a long rope with a handle that you could hold and fly through the air. Tom and Mia loved to zip on the zip line and feel the wind in their hair.
+
+One day, they saw something new in their yard. It was a big bird with bright colors and a long tail. It was sitting on a branch near the zip line. Tom and Mia had never seen such a bird before. They wondered what it was.
+
+"Look, Mia, a bird!" Tom said.
+
+"Wow, Tom, it's so pretty!" Mia said.
+
+They wanted to get closer to the bird, but they were afraid to scare it away. They knew it was a rare sight. They decided to zip on the zip line and try to see the bird better.
+
+They took turns to zip on the zip line, but they were careful not to make too much noise. They hoped the bird would stay and watch them. They smiled and waved at the bird as they zipped by.
+
+The bird seemed curious and not afraid. It tilted its head and made a soft sound. It looked like it was saying hello to Tom and Mia. They were happy and excited. They felt like they had made a new friend.
+
+They zipped on the zip line until it was time to go inside. They said goodbye to the bird and thanked it for visiting. They hoped it would come back again. They ran inside and told their mom and dad about the rare sight they had seen. They drew a picture of the bird and hung it on the fridge. They dreamed of zipping with the bird again.
+Tim and Jen were going to the airport with Mom and Dad. They wanted to see Grandma and Grandpa, who lived far away. They had big bags and small bags, and they put them on a big car that moved fast. The car had a number on it: 12.
+
+"Look, Tim, our car has a number!" Jen said. "Do you know what number it is?"
+
+Tim was proud. He knew his numbers. He said, "It is 12. One and two. I can count to 12. Can you?"
+
+Jen was humble. She did not know all her numbers. She said, "No, I can only count to 10. But you are smart, Tim. You can teach me more numbers later."
+
+Tim smiled. He liked to help his sister. He said, "OK, Jen. I will teach you 11 and 12 and more. Numbers are fun."
+
+They got to the airport. It was big and loud and busy. There were many people and many cars and many planes. Mom and Dad took their bags and gave them to a man. The man had a number on his shirt: 7.
+
+"Hello, sir, we are flying to Grandma and Grandpa's house. Can you help us?" Dad said.
+
+The man looked at their tickets. He said, "Yes, I can help you. But there is a problem. Your plane is full. There is no room for you. You have to wait for another plane. It will come later. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe not."
+
+Mom and Dad were sad and angry. They said, "But we have to see Grandma and Grandpa. They are waiting for us. We bought these tickets a long time ago. How can this happen?"
+
+The man shrugged. He said, "I don't know. It is not my fault. It is the fault of the number. The number is wrong. It says you have four seats, but you don't. You have zero seats. You have to go away."
+
+Tim and Jen did not understand. They were scared and confused. They said, "But we want to go on the plane. We want to see Grandma and Grandpa. We have a number. It is 12. Can we go on the plane with the number 12?"
+
+The man shook his head. He said, "No, you can't. Your number is useless. It is not the right number. The right number is 7. Like my shirt. But you don't have 7. You have nothing. You have to leave. Now."
+
+He pushed them away. He was mean and rude. He did not care about them. He only cared about his number.
+
+Tim and Jen cried. They hugged Mom and Dad. They did not go on the plane. They did not see Grandma and Grandpa. They had a bad day. They hated the number. They hated the airport. They hated the man. They wished they were home.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see a big bush with many blueberries. They are hungry and want to eat some.
+
+Lily picks a blueberry and puts it in her mouth. It is sweet and juicy. She smiles and picks another one. Ben picks a blueberry and puts it in his mouth. It is sour and bitter. He makes a face and spits it out.
+
+Lily laughs and says, "You picked a bad blueberry. Try another one." Ben is angry and says, "No, you are mean. You gave me a bad blueberry on purpose." He picks a blueberry and throws it at Lily. It hits her on the nose. She cries and says, "Ow, that hurts. Why did you do that?"
+
+Ben sees that Lily is hurt and sad. He feels sorry and says, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was mad, but I should not have thrown the blueberry at you. Are you okay?" Lily rubs her nose and says, "It still hurts, but I'm okay. I'm sorry, too. I did not give you a bad blueberry on purpose. I did not know it was sour."
+
+Ben and Lily hug and say, "We are still friends." They pick some more blueberries and share them. They find some that are sweet and some that are sour. They laugh and make funny faces. They have fun in the garden.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with cards. They have many cards with animals and colors. Anna has a soft toy cat. She loves her cat very much.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben are playing with cards on the floor. Anna picks a card with a red bird. She shows it to Ben and says, "Look, Ben, a red bird. It can fly in the sky. Do you like birds?"
+
+Ben nods and says, "Yes, I like birds. They are pretty and sing nice songs. But I like cats more. They are soft and cuddly and purr. Do you have a cat, Anna?"
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Yes, I have a cat. Her name is Lily. She is white and fluffy and has blue eyes. She is my best friend. Do you want to see her?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, please. I want to see your cat. Can we go to your room?"
+
+Anna says, "Okay, let's go. But we have to be quiet. Lily is sleeping on my bed. She does not like loud noises. Come on, follow me."
+
+Anna and Ben put the cards away and go to Anna's room. They open the door slowly and quietly. They see Lily on the bed. She is curled up and looks very cozy. Anna and Ben tiptoe to the bed and look at Lily. She is so soft and cute.
+
+Anna whispers, "This is Lily, Ben. She is my cat. Isn't she lovely?"
+
+Ben whispers, "Yes, she is, Anna. She is very lovely. Can I touch her?"
+
+Anna nods and says, "Yes, you can. But be gentle. She is very sensitive. You can stroke her back and her head. She likes that."
+
+Ben reaches out his hand and touches Lily. He feels her soft fur and hears her purr. He smiles and says, "She is so soft and warm, Anna. She likes me. I like her too."
+
+Anna and Ben stroke Lily and talk to her softly. They are very happy. They do not notice that Lily opens her eyes and looks at them. She is not happy. She does not like strangers. She does not like being disturbed. She does not like sharing Anna. She thinks of a plan. She waits for the right moment. Then she jumps off the bed and runs out of the room. She takes the cards with her. She hides them under the sofa. She thinks, "Now they will not play with cards. They will look for me. They will only play with me. I am Anna's cat. I am the best."
+Sara is sick. She has a cold. She coughs and sneezes a lot. Her mom gives her a pill to make her feel better. Sara does not like the pill. It is big and bitter. She makes a face and spits it out.
+
+"Sara, you have to take the pill. It will help you get well soon," her mom says.
+
+"But I don't want to. It is yucky," Sara says.
+
+Her mom has an idea. She gets a silly hat and a silly scarf from the closet. She puts them on Sara.
+
+"Look, Sara, you are wearing a silly hat and a silly scarf. They will keep you warm and cozy. And they will make you laugh," her mom says.
+
+Sara looks in the mirror. She sees the silly hat and the silly scarf. They are colorful and funny. She giggles.
+
+"Okay, mom, I will take the pill. But only if you wear a silly hat and a silly scarf too," Sara says.
+
+Her mom agrees. She gets another silly hat and another silly scarf. She puts them on. They look at each other and laugh.
+
+They take the pill together. Sara drinks some water. She feels a little better.
+
+They hug and kiss. They are wearing silly hats and silly scarves. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy guns in the garden. They liked to pretend they were cowboys and robbers. Lily had a red gun and Tom had a blue one.
+
+"Bang, bang, I shoot you, Tom!" Lily said, pointing her gun at Tom.
+
+"No, you miss, I shoot you, Lily!" Tom said, pointing his gun at Lily.
+
+They ran around the garden, shooting and dodging each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then they saw their neighbor, Ben, who was eating a big slice of cheese. Ben loved cheese more than anything. He had a yellow gun that looked like cheese.
+
+"Wow, look at Ben's gun, it's so cool!" Lily said.
+
+"I want a cheese gun too!" Tom said.
+
+They both felt envious of Ben's gun. They stopped playing and walked over to Ben.
+
+"Hi, Ben, can we see your gun?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, here it is, it's a cheese gun, it can shoot cheese!" Ben said, showing them his gun.
+
+"Can we try it?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sorry, no, it's mine, only I can use it," Ben said.
+
+He did not want to share his gun with anyone. He was very proud of it.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and angry. They did not like Ben's answer. They thought he was mean and selfish.
+
+They decided to go back to their game. They did not need a cheese gun to have fun. They had each other and their own guns.
+
+They smiled and ran away from Ben.
+
+"Bang, bang, we shoot you, Ben!" they shouted, shooting their guns at him.
+
+Ben was surprised and scared. He dropped his cheese and his gun. He ran inside his house.
+
+Lily and Tom laughed and picked up the cheese and the gun. They shared them and enjoyed them.
+
+They were happy and generous. They did not feel envious anymore.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run, slide and swing. They saw a big dog with a leather collar. The dog was brown and fluffy. He looked friendly.
+
+"Can we pet the dog?" Lily asked Ben.
+
+"OK, but be careful. He might bite," Ben said.
+
+They walked slowly to the dog. The dog wagged his tail and licked their hands. They giggled and stroked his fur.
+
+"Hello, doggy. What is your name?" Lily said.
+
+The dog barked and nuzzled her face. He smelled like grass and dirt.
+
+"His name is Rex. He is my dog," a voice said.
+
+They turned and saw a boy with a cap and a ball. He was the dog's owner.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily and this is Ben. We like your dog. He is very nice," Lily said.
+
+"Hi, I'm Sam. Rex likes you too. Do you want to play with us?" Sam said.
+
+"Yes, please. Can we throw the ball for Rex?" Ben said.
+
+"Sure. He loves to catch the ball. Watch this," Sam said.
+
+He threw the ball high in the air. Rex ran after it and jumped. He caught the ball in his mouth and brought it back. He dropped the ball at their feet.
+
+"Good boy, Rex. You are very smart," Lily said.
+
+She picked up the ball and threw it again. Rex chased it and caught it. He came back and gave the ball to Ben.
+
+Ben threw the ball for Rex. Rex ran and caught it. He came back and gave the ball to Sam.
+
+They took turns throwing the ball for Rex. They had a lot of fun. Rex was happy and tired.
+
+He lay down on the grass and panted. He licked their faces and wagged his tail.
+
+They hugged him and thanked him for playing.
+
+"Bye, Rex. You are a good dog. We hope to see you again," Lily said.
+
+"Bye, Sam. Thank you for letting us play with Rex. He is a great friend," Ben said.
+
+"Bye, Lily and Ben. You are welcome. Rex likes you too. He is a great friend," Sam said.
+
+They waved goodbye and left the park. They had a good day. They liked the taste of Rex's leather collar. It was dirty but sweet.
+Anna likes to visit her grandpa on the farm. He has many animals, but her favorite is the black cow. The black cow is big and soft and makes a funny sound. Anna likes to feed her grass and pat her head.
+
+One day, Anna asks her grandpa if she can lead the black cow to the barn. Grandpa says yes, but he tells her to be careful and hold the rope tight. Anna is very happy and puts the rope around the black cow's neck. She says, "Come on, black cow, let's go to the barn."
+
+Anna and the black cow walk slowly to the barn. Anna talks to the black cow and tells her how much she likes her. The black cow listens and nods her head. She likes Anna too. They are friends.
+
+But when they get to the barn, Anna sees a big red tractor. She thinks it is very cool and wants to see it closer. She lets go of the rope and runs to the tractor. She forgets about the black cow.
+
+The black cow sees Anna run away and feels sad. She does not like the tractor. She thinks it is loud and scary. She wants to go back to the field. She pulls the rope and runs away from the barn.
+
+Grandpa hears the noise and comes out of the house. He sees the black cow running and Anna by the tractor. He is worried and angry. He shouts, "Anna, what are you doing? You have to lead the black cow, not leave her alone!"
+
+Anna hears her grandpa and feels sorry. She did not mean to make the black cow run away. She did not mean to make her grandpa shout. She runs back to the rope and tries to catch the black cow. She says, "Black cow, black cow, please come back. I am sorry. I want to lead you to the barn."
+
+The black cow hears Anna and stops. She sees Anna running and calling her. She feels sorry too. She did not mean to make Anna worry. She did not mean to make her grandpa angry. She walks back to Anna and lets her hold the rope. She says, "Moo, moo, I am sorry. I want to go to the barn with you."
+
+Anna and the black cow hug and say sorry to each other. They walk to the barn together. Grandpa sees them and smiles. He is not angry anymore. He is proud of Anna and the black cow. He says, "Good job, Anna. You are a good leader. And you, black cow, you are a good friend. I love you both."
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big aeroplane in the sky. It was making a loud noise.
+
+"Look, an aeroplane!" Anna said. "I want to fly in an aeroplane one day."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. "But I'm scared. What if it falls down?"
+
+Anna shook her head. "It won't fall down. It's normal for aeroplanes to fly. They have wings and engines and pilots. They are safe and fun."
+
+Ben was not sure. He looked at the aeroplane again. It was very high and fast.
+
+"Anna, I dare you to pretend you are an aeroplane," he said. "Can you make the same noise and fly around the park?"
+
+Anna smiled. She liked dares. She spread her arms and ran around the park. She made a loud noise like the aeroplane.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I'm an aeroplane!" she shouted. "I can fly anywhere I want!"
+
+Ben watched her. He thought she was brave and silly. He laughed and clapped his hands.
+
+"Anna, you are a good aeroplane," he said. "But can you land?"
+
+Anna stopped running. She looked for a place to land. She saw a bench near a tree.
+
+"Watch me, Ben," she said. "I'm going to land on the bench."
+
+She ran towards the bench and jumped on it. She made a soft noise like the aeroplane.
+
+"Shhh, I'm landing," she said. "I'm an aeroplane that can land."
+
+Ben ran to the bench and hugged her.
+
+"Anna, you are amazing," he said. "You are not scared of anything."
+
+Anna hugged him back.
+
+"Ben, you are my best friend," she said. "You are not scared either. You dared me to be an aeroplane."
+
+They smiled and sat on the bench. They looked at the sky and saw another aeroplane.
+
+"Maybe one day we can fly in a real aeroplane," Anna said.
+
+"Maybe," Ben said. "But for now, we can pretend."
+
+They pretended to be aeroplanes again and flew around the park. They had a lot of fun. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. They also like to help their mom and dad with chores. Today, they are helping mom mail some letters.
+
+"Mom, can we put the stamps on the letters?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, you can. But be careful not to tear them. They are sticky and you have to press them hard on the envelopes," mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben take turns to put the stamps on the letters. They are very careful and do a good job. Mom smiles and says, "You are very good helpers. Thank you."
+
+"Can we go with you to the mailbox, mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Of course, you can. Let's go together. It's a nice day outside," mom says.
+
+They put on their coats and shoes and walk to the mailbox. It is not far from their house. They see some birds and flowers on the way. They also see their neighbor, Mr. Lee, who is walking his dog.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Lee. Hello, Spot," mom says.
+
+"Hello, mom. Hello, Lily and Ben. You are very cute twins," Mr. Lee says.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Lee. Can we pet your dog, please?" Lily and Ben ask.
+
+"Sure, you can. He is very friendly and likes to be rubbed. But you have to ask him first. Say, 'Can I rub you, Spot?'" Mr. Lee says.
+
+Lily and Ben do as Mr. Lee says. They say, "Can I rub you, Spot?" Spot wags his tail and licks their faces. They rub his ears and his belly. He makes happy noises.
+
+"You are very nice, Spot. We like you," Lily and Ben say.
+
+"You are very nice, too. Spot likes you, too," Mr. Lee says.
+
+They say goodbye to Mr. Lee and Spot and continue to the mailbox. Mom lets Lily and Ben put the letters in the mailbox. They hear a click and see the flag go up.
+
+"We did it, mom. We mailed the letters," Lily and Ben say.
+
+"Yes, you did. I'm very proud of you. You are very smart and kind," mom says.
+
+They hug mom and go back home. They are happy and hungry. Mom makes them some sandwiches and milk. They eat and drink and tell mom about their adventure. Mom listens and smiles. She loves her twins very much.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with dolls and cars. One day, they find an old book in the attic. The book has many pictures of war. War is when people fight and hurt each other.
+
+"Look, Tom, this is war," Sue says, pointing at a picture of soldiers and tanks. "Why do people do war?"
+
+"I don't know, Sue. War is bad. War makes people sad and angry," Tom says, looking at another picture of fire and smoke.
+
+They discuss war for a long time. They wonder why people can't be nice and share. They wish war would stop.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It sounds like a big boom. They feel the floor shake. They see dust and glass fall from the ceiling. They are scared.
+
+"Tom, what is that?" Sue cries, holding her doll.
+
+"I think it's war, Sue. I think war is here," Tom says, holding his car.
+
+They run to the window. They see planes and bombs and smoke. They see people scream and run. They see their house and their street and their town on fire.
+
+They are very scared. They hug each other. They cry.
+
+They don't know what to do.
+
+They don't know if they will be okay.
+
+They don't know if war will ever stop.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and look for bugs and stones. One day, they found something shiny and round in the dirt. It was a metal pot with a lid.
+
+"What is this?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe it is a treasure," Tom said.
+
+They opened the lid and saw some water inside. They smelled the water. It was not sweet or sour. It was just water.
+
+"Let's put it on the fire," Tom said. He had made a small fire with sticks and leaves. He wanted to see what would happen.
+
+They put the pot on the fire and waited. Soon, they heard a hissing sound. They saw white smoke coming out of the pot. It was hot and wet.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"That is steam," Tom said. He had learned that word from his dad. His dad used steam to make tea and soup.
+
+"Can we touch it?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, it is too hot. It can hurt you," Tom said.
+
+They watched the steam rise and disappear in the air. They felt the warmth on their faces. They saw the fire flicker and crackle.
+
+They were curious and happy. They had discovered something new. They had made steam with a metal pot and a fire. They were gentle with the pot and the fire. They did not spill the water or burn themselves. They were good friends. They liked to play and learn together.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the garden. They saw a big red flower. It smelled good.
+
+"Can we taste it?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is not good to eat," Mia said.
+
+But Ben was curious. He picked a petal and put it in his mouth. It was bitter and sour. He made a face and spat it out.
+
+"Yuck! That is bad!" he said.
+
+Mia laughed. She thought it was funny. But then she saw Mom coming. Mom looked upset.
+
+"Ben, Mia, what are you doing?" Mom asked.
+
+"We were playing with the flower, Mom," Mia said.
+
+"That is not a flower. That is a pepper. It is very hot and spicy. It can hurt your mouth and your tummy. You should never taste things you don't know," Mom said.
+
+She took them inside and gave them some water and some bread. She hugged them and said, "I love you, but you have to be careful. There are many things in the garden that are not good to eat. You have to ask me or Dad before you try anything new."
+
+Ben and Mia nodded. They felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We won't do it again."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "It's okay. I know you were curious. But curiosity can be dangerous sometimes. You have to use your eyes, your nose, and your ears, not just your mouth. And you have to listen to me and Dad. We know the way to keep you safe and happy."
+Lily liked to dance. She danced in the morning, she danced in the afternoon, she danced at night. She danced with her doll, she danced with her cat, she danced with her mom and dad. She danced when she was happy, she danced when she was sad, she danced when she was bored.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to dance with her friend Ben. She called him on the phone and asked him to come over. Ben said yes and soon he was at Lily's door. Lily was very excited. She took Ben by the hand and led him to the living room. There, she turned on the music and started to dance.
+
+Ben did not like to dance. He felt silly and shy. He did not know what to do with his feet and his arms. He watched Lily spin and jump and clap. He wished he could dance like her. He wished he could have fun like her. He wished he could be like her.
+
+Lily noticed that Ben was not dancing. She stopped and looked at him. She saw that he was unhappy. She asked him, "Ben, why are you not dancing? Dancing is fun. Dancing is good. Dancing makes you feel good. Don't you like to dance?"
+
+Ben shook his head. He said, "No, I don't like to dance. I don't know how to dance. I can't dance like you. You are so good at dancing. You are so special. I am not good at anything. I am not special. I am just ordinary."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged him. She said, "Ben, you are not ordinary. You are my friend. You are good at many things. You are good at drawing. You are good at reading. You are good at making jokes. You are good at being kind. You are special to me. And you can dance. You just need to try. You just need to have fun. You just need to be yourself."
+
+Lily took Ben to the kitchen. There, she found a jar of butter. She opened it and took a spoonful. She said, "Ben, watch this." She put the butter in her mouth and made a funny face. She said, "Mmm, butter. Butter is yummy. Butter is smooth. Butter is yellow. Butter makes me happy. Butter makes me want to dance." She swallowed the butter and started to dance again.
+
+Ben laughed. He thought Lily was silly and funny. He thought Lily was brave and happy. He thought Lily was his friend. He took a spoonful of butter and put it in his mouth. He made a funny face too. He said, "Mmm, butter. Butter is yummy. Butter is smooth. Butter is yellow. Butter makes me happy. Butter makes me want to dance." He swallowed the butter and started to dance with Lily.
+
+They danced and laughed and had fun. They danced with the doll, they danced with the cat, they danced with the mom and dad. They danced when they were happy, they danced when they were sad, they danced when they were bored. They danced because they were friends. They danced because they were special. They danced because they were themselves.
+Lily and Ben are hungry. They want to make a sandwich for lunch. They go to the kitchen and look for bread, cheese, ham and lettuce.
+
+"Can I design the sandwich?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"OK, you can design the sandwich. But we have to make it clean," Ben says.
+
+Lily takes two slices of bread and puts cheese on one slice. Then she puts ham on the cheese. She looks for the lettuce.
+
+"Where is the lettuce?" Lily asks.
+
+"Here it is, in the fridge. But it is dirty. We have to wash it first," Ben says.
+
+He takes the lettuce and puts it under the tap. He rubs it with his hands to make it clean. Then he gives it to Lily.
+
+Lily puts the lettuce on the ham. Then she puts the other slice of bread on top. She cuts the sandwich in half.
+
+"Look, I designed the sandwich. It looks yummy," Lily says.
+
+"Good job, Lily. You are a good designer. Let's eat the sandwich," Ben says.
+
+They sit at the table and eat the sandwich. They share it and enjoy it. They drink some milk and water. They are happy and full.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a folder with many pictures. They show each other the pictures and say what they see.
+
+"Look, this is a dog. He is playful. He likes to run and jump," Sara says, holding a picture of a dog.
+
+"I like dogs. They are fun. Can we play with a dog?" Tom asks, looking at the picture.
+
+"Maybe. We can ask Mom. She knows where the dogs are," Sara replies, putting the picture back in the folder.
+
+They close the folder and run to Sara's mom. She is sitting on a bench. She has a book and a cup.
+
+"Mom, can we play with a dog?" Sara asks, holding Tom's hand.
+
+"Hello, Sara and Tom. You want to play with a dog? That sounds nice. But we don't have a dog. Where can we find a dog?" Mom asks, smiling.
+
+"Maybe in the pet shop. They have many dogs. Can we go there?" Tom asks, hoping.
+
+"Maybe. But first we have to finish our snack. Do you want a cookie and some juice?" Mom replies, opening a bag.
+
+"Yes, please. We are hungry. Thank you, Mom," Sara and Tom say, sitting next to Mom.
+
+They eat their cookies and drink their juice. They are happy. They hope they can see a playful dog soon. They love dogs.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in the farm. They see a big bull in the field. The bull is angry. He runs at them with his horns.
+
+"Help!" Tom and Sam shout. They run away from the bull. They see a fence. They try to jump over it. Tom is flexible. He jumps over the fence. Sam is not flexible. He gets stuck on the fence.
+
+"Ouch!" Sam says. He is scared. The bull is coming closer. He wants to hurt Sam.
+
+"Sam, hold on!" Tom says. He looks around. He sees a rope. He grabs the rope. He throws it to Sam. "Catch it!" he says.
+
+Sam catches the rope. Tom pulls the rope. He helps Sam get off the fence. They run to the other side. They are safe.
+
+"Thank you, Tom!" Sam says. "You rescued me!"
+
+"You're welcome, Sam!" Tom says. "You are my friend!"

+They hug each other. They are happy. They go to find their mom and dad. They tell them what happened. Their mom and dad are proud of them. They give them a hug and a kiss. They say they are brave and smart. They go home. They have a snack. They play with their toys. They are happy. The end.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They go to the same classroom every day. They like to play with blocks, draw with crayons and sing songs. They have a large teacher who is very nice. She reads them stories and helps them learn new things.
+
+One day, Anna is sick. She has to stay at home with her mom. She cannot go to the classroom. She feels sad and bored. She misses Ben and the teacher and the blocks and the crayons and the songs.
+
+Ben is in the classroom. He looks for Anna, but he cannot find her. He asks the teacher, "Where is Anna?"
+
+The teacher says, "Anna is sick. She has to stay at home today. She will come back when she feels better."
+
+Ben feels sad and lonely. He misses Anna and their games and their laughs.
+
+He decides to make a card for Anna. He takes a large paper and some crayons. He draws a picture of them playing with blocks. He writes, "I miss you, Anna. Get well soon. Your friend, Ben."
+
+He gives the card to the teacher. The teacher says, "That is very nice of you, Ben. I will give the card to Anna when I see her."
+
+Ben smiles. He hopes Anna will like the card. He hopes Anna will come back soon. He wants to play with her again. He wants to see her happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big fountain with water that went up and down. They ran to the fountain and tried to catch the water.
+
+"Look, Ben, the water makes mist!" Lily said. She felt the mist on her face and laughed.
+
+"Mist is wet and cold and soft," Ben said. He liked the mist too. He tried to blow the mist away with his mouth.
+
+They played with the mist for a long time. They pretended they were in a cloud. They made shapes with the mist. They had fun.
+
+But then, Lily saw something shiny in the fountain. It was a coin. She wanted to get the coin. She reached out her hand and touched the water.
+
+"Ow!" Lily cried. The water was not soft. It was hard and fast and hurt her hand. She pulled her hand back and saw blood.
+
+"Lily, what happened?" Ben asked. He was scared.
+
+"I break my hand," Lily said. She was sad and in pain.
+
+Ben hugged Lily and said, "Don't cry, Lily. I will help you. Come, we go to mom and dad. They will make your hand better."
+
+They ran to their parents, who were sitting on a bench. They told them what happened. Their parents were worried and sorry. They took Lily to the doctor. The doctor gave Lily a bandage and a sticker. He said her hand would heal soon.
+
+Lily felt better. She thanked the doctor and her parents and Ben. She learned a lesson. She said, "I will not touch the fountain again. The fountain is not for playing. The fountain is for looking."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Yes, Lily. The fountain is incredible, but it is not our friend. The mist is our friend. We can play with the mist again, when your hand is good."
+
+They smiled and hugged. They were happy. They still liked the fountain and the mist, but they were careful. They played in the park until it was time to go home.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they see a big poster. It says: "Draw a picture of your family. Win a prize!"
+
+Sara and Tom want to win the prize. They think it is a toy or a book. They go home and draw their pictures. Sara draws her mom, her dad, her baby brother and her dog. Tom draws his mom, his dad, his big sister and his cat.
+
+The next day, they bring their pictures to school. They show them to their teacher. The teacher smiles and says: "Very good, Sara and Tom! You both drew very nice pictures. But there is only one prize. How can we choose who gets it?"
+
+Sara and Tom look at each other. They both want the prize. But they also like each other. They think for a moment. Then Sara says: "Tom, you can have the prize. You drew your cat very well. I like cats."
+
+Tom says: "Thank you, Sara. But you can have the prize. You drew your dog very well. I like dogs."
+
+The teacher says: "You are both very kind and generous. You know how to share and be happy for your friend. That is the best prize of all. But I have a surprise for you. There are two prizes. One for each of you!"
+
+Sara and Tom are very happy. They hug each other and say: "Thank you, teacher! Thank you, friend!"
+
+They open their prizes. They are warm scarves. One is red and one is blue. They put them on and smile. They think they are very lucky to have each other.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big tree with a long and thin trunk. They want to create something with the trunk.
+
+"Let's make a snake!" Tom says. He picks up a stick and draws a wavy line on the trunk.
+
+"Good idea!" Lily says. She finds some leaves and sticks them on the line to make eyes and a tongue.
+
+They are happy with their snake. They pretend to be snake hunters and chase it around the tree.
+
+"Watch out, the snake is going to bite you!" Tom shouts.
+
+"No, it won't, it is our friend!" Lily says.
+
+They laugh and hug the snake. They love to create things with nature.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big hole in the fence. It was open. They wanted to see what was behind it.
+
+"Let's go, Lily," Tom said. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+"No, Tom," Lily said. "Mama said we should not go out of the park. It is not safe."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He ran to the hole and went through it. Lily followed him. She did not want to be alone.
+
+Behind the fence, there was a big road. There were many cars and trucks. They made a lot of noise. Lily and Tom were scared. They did not know how to cross the road.
+
+"Tom, we should go back," Lily said. "This is not a good place to play."
+
+But Tom saw something shiny on the other side. It was a bike. He wanted to ride it.
+
+"Look, Lily," Tom said. "A bike! Maybe it is for us. Let's go get it."
+
+He ran to the road. He did not look for cars. He did not hear the horn. He did not see the truck.
+
+Lily screamed. She saw Tom get hit by the truck. He flew in the air. He fell on the ground. He did not move.
+
+Lily ran to Tom. She cried. She shook him. He did not wake up. He was gone.
+
+Lily trembled. She was alone. She did not know how to go back. She did not know what to do.
+
+The truck driver got out of his truck. He saw Lily and Tom. He was sorry. He called for help. He tried to talk to Lily.
+
+"Are you okay, little girl?" he asked. "What are you doing here? Where are your parents?"
+
+Lily did not answer. She did not understand. She only wanted Tom. She only wanted to play. She only wanted to go home.
+
+But it was too late. She had made a big mistake. She had followed Tom to the open hole. She had left the park. She had left her work. She had left her life.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with a swing, a slide and a sandbox. They also had a dog named Spot who was very friendly and smart.
+
+One day, they saw a big hole in the fence. They wondered what was on the other side. They decided to go and look. They called Spot to come with them.
+
+"Spot, come here! We want to see what is in the hole!" Anna said.
+
+Spot barked and ran to them. He sniffed the hole and wagged his tail. He wanted to go too.
+
+But then they heard a voice. It was their grandma, who lived with them. She was very old and had a lot of wisdom. She knew many things and told them stories.
+
+"Anna, Ben, Spot, come back here! It is not safe to go through the hole!" Grandma said.
+
+"Why not, Grandma?" Ben asked.
+
+"Because there is a busy road on the other side. There are many cars and trucks that go very fast. They can hurt you if you are not careful. You have to prevent that from happening. You have to stay in the yard where it is light and safe." Grandma said.
+
+"Oh, we did not know that, Grandma. Thank you for telling us. We will not go through the hole. We will play in the yard with Spot." Anna said.
+
+"That's good, my dears. I am glad you listen to me. I love you very much. Now, why don't you go and have some cookies and milk? I made them for you." Grandma said.
+
+Anna, Ben and Spot smiled and ran to the kitchen. They hugged Grandma and thanked her for the cookies and milk. They ate them happily and then went back to the yard. They played until it was dark and then went inside. They had a good day.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to travel with Mom and Dad. They go to many places and see many things. They have a big bag with clothes and toys.
+
+One day, they travel to a big city. They stay in a hotel. The hotel has many rooms and many doors. Anna and Ben want to explore the hotel. They ask Mom and Dad if they can go out.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Mom says. "Don't go too far and come back soon."
+
+"OK, Mom," Anna and Ben say. They take the key from the table and go out.
+
+They walk along the hall. They see many doors. They wonder what is behind them. They try to open some of them, but they are locked. They cannot see inside.
+
+They come to a door that is not locked. They open it and go in. They see a big bed, a TV, a sofa and a table. They think it is another room like theirs. They jump on the bed and play with the pillows. They turn on the TV and watch cartoons. They have fun.
+
+They do not hear the door close behind them. They do not see the sign that says "Do not disturb". They do not know that someone else lives in this room.
+
+After a while, they hear a knock on the door. They think it is Mom and Dad. They run to the door and try to open it. But they cannot. The door is locked. They are trapped.
+
+They are scared. They cry. They call for Mom and Dad. They bang on the door. They hope someone will hear them and help them.
+
+On the other side of the door, a man is angry. He is the owner of the room. He came back from work and found his room occupied by two kids. He does not know who they are or how they got in. He does not want them in his room. He wants them out.
+
+He calls the hotel staff and asks them to open the door. He tells them that there are two kids in his room and he wants them gone. He does not care if they are lost or in trouble. He does not care if they are scared or crying. He only cares about his room.
+
+The hotel staff come to the door. They hear the kids' voices and the man's voice. They are confused. They do not know what is going on. They ask the man for his key. He gives it to them. They insert it in the lock and turn it. The door opens.
+
+Anna and Ben see the man and the hotel staff. They are surprised. They do not know the man. They do not know why he is angry. They do not know why they are in his room.
+
+They see Mom and Dad behind the hotel staff. They are relieved. They run to them and hug them. They are glad to see them. They are glad to be out of the room.
+
+Mom and Dad are worried. They are sorry. They ask Anna and Ben what happened. They explain that they went to explore the hotel and found an unlocked door and went in. They did not know that it was someone else's room. They did not know that the door would lock behind them. They did not mean to cause trouble.
+
+Mom and Dad apologize to the man and the hotel staff. They say that Anna and Ben are just curious and playful. They say that they did not watch them closely enough. They say that they will pay for any damage or inconvenience.
+
+The man and the hotel staff are not happy. They are still angry. They say that Anna and Ben should not have entered the room without permission. They say that they should have respected the sign and the lock. They say that they should have been more careful and responsible.
+
+Mom and Dad take Anna and Ben back to their room. They scold them and tell them that they should not have done what they did. They tell them that they should not have left their room without telling them. They tell them that they should not have opened any doors that are not theirs. They tell them that they should not have touched anything that is not theirs. They tell them that they should have listened to the knock and the voice and asked for help.
+
+Anna and Ben are sorry. They are ashamed. They say that they are sorry and that they will not do it again. They say that they learned their lesson and that they will be more careful and respectful.
+
+Mom and Dad hug them and tell them that they love them. They tell them that they are glad that they are safe and that nothing bad happened. They tell them that they are glad that they are curious and playful, but that they also need to be smart and polite. They tell them that they can still travel and see many things, but that they also need to follow some rules and respect some boundaries.
+
+Anna and Ben nod and smile. They say that they love
+Lily was a little girl who loved to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite one was Anna. Anna had long, curly hair that Lily liked to comb and braid. Lily always took good care of Anna and gave her hugs and kisses.
+
+One night, Lily was getting ready for bed. She brushed her teeth, put on her pajamas, and climbed into her bed. She reached for Anna, but she could not find her. She looked under the pillow, under the blanket, and under the bed, but Anna was not there. Lily felt sad and scared. Where was Anna?
+
+She ran to her mom and dad, who were reading in the living room. "Mom, dad, I can't find Anna!" she cried. "She is my best doll and I need her to sleep!"
+
+Mom and dad hugged Lily and said, "Don't worry, sweetie. We will help you find Anna. Maybe she is in the toy box, or in the closet, or in the bathroom. Let's go and look together."
+
+They searched all over the house, but they could not find Anna. Lily was about to give up, when she heard a soft voice from the sofa. "Lily, I'm here!"
+
+Lily turned around and saw Anna on the sofa, next to a big teddy bear. Anna looked happy and cozy. Lily ran to her and picked her up. "Anna, I missed you so much! Why are you here?"
+
+Anna said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was feeling lonely and cold in your bed. The teddy bear invited me to sleep with him. He is very kind and warm. He said he would share his blanket and pillow with me. He is a compassionate friend."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I'm glad you found a compassionate friend, Anna. But I'm your compassionate friend too. I love you and I want you to sleep with me. Can we share my bed with the teddy bear?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Of course, Lily. I love you too. And I'm sure the teddy bear would love to sleep with us. He is very generous and friendly. Let's go and ask him."
+
+Lily, Anna, and the teddy bear went to Lily's bed and cuddled together. They were all happy and warm. Lily kissed Anna and the teddy bear and said, "Good night, my compassionate friends. You are the best."
+
+The moral of the story is: It is good to be compassionate and share with others, but it is also important to not forget your own friends who love you.
+Tom and Lily were playing outside with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they would fall down and laugh. They were having fun.
+
+But then the sky became dark and loud. They heard a big boom and saw a bright flash. It was lightning. They were scared. They ran to their house and looked for their mom.
+
+Mom was in the kitchen. She was making soup for dinner. She saw Tom and Lily and hugged them. She said, "Don't worry, it's just a storm. It will go away soon. Come, let's have some soup."
+
+They sat at the table and ate their soup. They felt warm and cozy. They saw another flash and heard another boom. They jumped a little, but mom said, "It's okay, it's just lightning. It can't hurt you inside the house."
+
+Then they heard a knock on the door. Mom opened it and saw an elderly lady. She was their neighbor, Mrs. Jones. She had a big umbrella and a basket. She said, "Hello, I was walking by and I saw the storm. I thought you might like some cookies. I baked them this morning."
+
+Mom said, "Thank you, Mrs. Jones. That's very kind of you. Come in, please. We have some soup, too. Would you like some?"
+
+Mrs. Jones said, "Yes, please. That sounds lovely. I don't like storms, either. They make me nervous. But I like cookies and soup and friends."
+
+They all went to the table and shared the cookies and the soup. They talked and smiled and forgot about the storm. They were happy. They hoped the storm would stop soon. But they knew they were safe and warm and not alone.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand and make pits. They used sticks and stones to mark their pits. They pretended they were treasure hunters.
+
+"Look, I found a shiny thing!" Ben said, holding up a metal ring. "Maybe it is a magic ring!"
+
+"Wow, let me see!" Lila said, running over to him. She took the ring and put it on her finger. "It is very pretty!"
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud roar. They turned around and saw a big dragon. It had green scales, yellow eyes and red fire. It was flying towards them.
+
+"Help!" Lila and Ben screamed. They dropped their sticks and stones and ran away from the sand. They hid behind a bench.
+
+The dragon landed on the sand and sniffed around. It saw the pits and the marks. It saw the shiny ring on Lila's finger. It wanted the ring. It opened its mouth and breathed fire.
+
+"Stop!" Lila shouted. She was scared, but she was also brave. She stood up and faced the dragon. "This is my ring! You can't have it!"
+
+The dragon was surprised. It had never seen a child like Lila. She was not ordinary. She was bold and smart. It liked her.
+
+"Sorry," the dragon said. "I didn't mean to scare you. I just like shiny things. Can we be friends?"
+
+Lila and Ben looked at each other. They were still scared, but they were also curious. They had never seen a dragon like this. It was not mean. It was friendly.
+
+"OK," Lila said. "We can be friends. But you have to share the ring. And you have to play nice."
+
+"Deal," the dragon said. It smiled and nodded. It gave Lila and Ben a ride on its back. They flew over the park and had fun.
+
+The end.
+Ben and Mia liked to play with their cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They zoomed them on the floor, on the sofa, and on the table. Sometimes they made noises like vroom, beep, and honk.
+
+One day, they saw a big car outside their window. It was red and shiny, and it had a long mouth. It looked like a monster. Ben and Mia were scared, but also curious. They wanted to see the monster car up close.
+
+They put on their shoes and coats, and ran outside. They saw the monster car parked on the street. It was very big, and it had teeth in its mouth. Ben and Mia felt brave, and walked closer to the monster car.
+
+"Hello, monster car," Ben said. "Are you hungry?"
+
+The monster car opened its mouth and made a loud roar. It sounded like it was angry. Ben and Mia jumped back, and held each other's hands.
+
+"Run, run, run!" Mia shouted. "The monster car wants to eat us!"
+
+They turned around and ran back to their house. They slammed the door behind them, and locked it. They were safe, but they were still shaking. They hugged their cars, and said sorry to them.
+
+"We will never play with monster cars again," Ben said. "They are too scary."
+
+Mia nodded. "We like our cars better. They are nice and friendly."
+
+They smiled at each other, and played with their cars again. They were happy, and they forgot about the monster car. But the monster car did not forget about them. It waited outside, and watched them with its alert eyes. It was not hungry, but it was bored. It wanted to play, too. Maybe next time, it would find a way to join them.
+Sara liked to design things. She had many papers and crayons and stickers. She made pictures of flowers and animals and houses. She was very good at design.
+
+One day, she wanted to design something new. She saw her brother's bow and arrow. He used it to shoot at targets. Sara thought it looked fun. She took his arrow and some stickers. She put the stickers on the arrow. She made it colorful. She thought it looked pretty.
+
+But her brother was not happy. He saw his arrow and got angry. He said, "That's my arrow! You ruined it! You can't design with my things!" He took his arrow and tried to peel off the stickers. But they were stuck. He could not shoot with his arrow anymore. He was very sad.
+
+Sara felt bad. She did not mean to make her brother sad. She said, "I'm sorry. I just wanted to design something new. I thought you would like it." But her brother did not like it. He said, "You should ask before you use my things. And you should not design with things that are not for design. They have a different purpose."
+
+Sara learned a lesson. She learned to respect other people's things. She learned to ask before she used them. And she learned to design with things that are for design. She hugged her brother and said, "I'm sorry. I won't do it again. Can we still play together?" Her brother smiled and said, "Yes, we can. But let's use your papers and crayons and stickers. They are better for design." They went to Sara's room and designed some new pictures. They had fun. They were happy.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. Sometimes they crashed into each other and laughed.
+
+"Beep beep! Move out of the way!" Ben shouted as he zoomed his red car towards Anna's blue one.
+
+"No, you move! My car is bigger and stronger!" Anna said, blocking his path with her car.
+
+They were having so much fun that they did not hear the doorbell ring. But they heard daddy open the door and say hello to someone.
+
+"Who is it, daddy?" Anna asked, pausing her game and looking at the door.
+
+"It's grandma, sweetie. She came to visit us and bring us some cookies. Do you want to say hi?" daddy said, smiling and holding grandma's hand.
+
+Anna and Ben jumped up and ran to the door. They loved grandma. She was very kind and always told them stories. She was also very elderly, which meant she had white hair and wrinkles on her face. But she had a warm smile and a soft voice.
+
+"Hi, grandma!" Anna and Ben said, hugging her.
+
+"Hello, my darlings. How are you? You look so big and happy. I missed you so much," grandma said, kissing them on their cheeks.
+
+"We missed you too, grandma. Do you want to play with us?" Anna asked, holding her car.
+
+"Or do you want to see our drawings?" Ben asked, pointing to the table.
+
+"Of course I do. You are so creative and clever. But first, let's have some cookies and milk, shall we?" grandma said, leading them to the kitchen.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and followed her. They were glad that grandma came to visit. They knew she would make their day even more fun.
+Lily and Max are playing with their toys in the living room. Lily has a doll and Max has a car. They are having fun making noises and stories with their toys.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, my car is fast and strong!" Max says.
+
+"My doll is pretty and charming, she likes to dance and sing!" Lily says.
+
+They play for a while, until Max notices that his car has a broken wheel. He is sad and tries to fix it, but it does not work.
+
+"Oh no, my car is broken, I can't play with it anymore!" Max cries.
+
+Lily sees that Max is sad and wants to help him. She remembers that her dad has some tape in his toolbox. She runs to the garage and gets the tape. She comes back to Max and says:
+
+"Don't cry, Max, I have tape! Tape can fix your car, look!"
+
+She takes the tape and wraps it around the broken wheel. She presses it hard and makes sure it sticks. She gives the car back to Max and says:
+
+"Here, try it now, maybe it works!"
+
+Max takes the car and tries to roll it on the floor. The tape holds the wheel and the car moves again. Max is happy and smiles.
+
+"Wow, Lily, you are so smart and kind! You fixed my car with tape, thank you so much!" Max says.
+
+Lily smiles too and says:
+
+"You're welcome, Max, I'm glad you're happy. Tape is good for many things, right?"
+
+They hug and continue to play with their toys. They are good friends and they share their toys and their stories. They have a lot of fun with their doll and their car.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. They had a big box of toys in their room, but they always wanted the same toy. One day, they saw a shiny red car in the box. They both ran to grab it, but Lily got there first.
+
+"Mine!" she shouted, holding the car tightly. "I saw it first!"
+
+"No, mine!" Ben shouted back, pulling the car from her. "I want it more!"
+
+They started to fight over the car, pulling and pushing and yelling. They did not hear their mom calling them for lunch. They did not see their dog, Spot, sneaking into their room. They only cared about the car.
+
+Spot was hungry and curious. He smelled something yummy in the box. He stuck his nose in and found a sandwich that Lily and Ben had forgotten. He took a big bite and chewed happily. Then he saw the shiny red car. He thought it was a toy for him. He grabbed it with his teeth and ran away.
+
+Lily and Ben stopped fighting when they heard a loud crunch. They looked up and saw Spot running out of their room with the car in his mouth. The car was broken and bent. They both gasped and cried.
+
+"Spot, no!" they shouted, running after him. "That's our car!"
+
+But it was too late. Spot had swallowed the car and licked his lips. He wagged his tail and barked. He did not know he had done something bad. He had made a wish come true. He had eaten a yummy car.
+Tim liked to play with his dad's tools. He was curious about how they worked and what they could do. He saw a wire on the table. It was long and thin and shiny. He wanted to touch it and see what it felt like.
+
+He reached for the wire, but his dad saw him and said, "No, Tim, don't touch that. It's dangerous. It can hurt you. It has electricity inside. You need to be careful with wires."
+
+Tim was sad. He didn't understand why he couldn't touch the wire. He thought it looked fun and harmless. He waited until his dad was busy with something else. He sneaked to the table and grabbed the wire. He felt a shock in his hand. He dropped the wire and cried.
+
+His dad heard him and ran to him. He hugged him and said, "Tim, are you okay? What did you do?" He saw the wire on the floor and said, "Tim, I told you not to touch the wire. You could have been hurt very badly. You need to listen to me and follow the rules. I'm sorry, but you can't play with my tools anymore. They are not toys. They are for grown-ups who know how to use them safely."
+
+Tim was sorry. He realized he had made a mistake. He said, "I'm sorry, dad. I was curious. I wanted to see the wire. I didn't know it had electricity. It hurt me. I won't touch it again. I won't touch your tools again. I love you, dad."
+
+His dad said, "I love you too, Tim. I'm glad you're okay. I know you were curious, but you need to be smart and careful too. There are some things that are not for you to play with. They are for me to complete my work. Maybe when you're older, I can teach you how to use them properly. But for now, let's find something else for you to play with. How about your blocks? You can build something with them."
+
+Tim nodded. He said, "Okay, dad. I like my blocks. I can build something with them. Thank you, dad." He smiled and hugged his dad. He went to his room and played with his blocks. He forgot about the wire. He was happy.
+Sara was a naughty girl. She did not listen to Mom and Dad. She liked to play with water. She made the floor wet. She made the bed wet. She made the toys wet.
+
+Mom and Dad were angry. They said, "Sara, you are a bad girl. You make a big mess. You waste water. You punish us with your water games. You need to stop."
+
+But Sara did not stop. She laughed and ran away. She found a big bucket of water. She wanted to pour it on Mom and Dad. She thought it was funny.
+
+She lifted the bucket. But it was too heavy. She lost her balance. She fell down. The bucket fell on her head. The water spilled on her face. She was wet and hurt. She cried and cried.
+
+Mom and Dad heard her cry. They ran to her. They saw her on the floor. They saw the bucket on her head. They saw the water on her face. They were not angry. They were scared and sad. They said, "Sara, are you okay? We are sorry. We love you. We want you to be calm and safe."
+
+They took the bucket off her head. They hugged her and kissed her. They dried her and bandaged her. They took her to the bed. They read her a story. They said, "Sara, please be a good girl. Please listen to us. Please do not play with water. Water can be dangerous. Water can hurt you. Water can punish you."
+
+Sara was sorry. She said, "Mom, Dad, I am sorry. I am a bad girl. I do not listen to you. I play with water. I make you angry. I punish you. I do not want to hurt you. I do not want to hurt myself. I want to be a good girl. I want to be calm and safe."
+
+Mom and Dad said, "We forgive you, Sara. We know you are a good girl. You just make mistakes. We all make mistakes. We can learn from our mistakes. We can be better. We can be happy."
+
+They kissed her and said good night. They turned off the light. They left the room.
+
+Sara was calm and safe. But she was also wet and hurt. She had a big bump on her head. She had a bad dream. She did not sleep well. She did not have a good night. She had a bad ending.
+Lily liked to play with her bow. It was pink and shiny and had a ribbon on it. She put it in her hair every day. She thought it was very important. She did not want to share it with anyone.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a girl with a blue bow. The girl smiled at her and said, "Hi, I'm Mia. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked to make new friends. But she did not want to play with Mia's bow. She thought her bow was better.
+
+They played on the swings and the slide. They had fun. But then Mia said, "Can I try your bow? It's so pretty."
+
+Lily shook her head. She said, "No, this is my bow. I own it. You can't have it."
+
+Mia looked sad. She said, "But I just want to try it. I'll give it back. Please?"
+
+Lily said, "No, no, no. Go away. This is my bow."
+
+Mia started to cry. She ran away. Lily felt happy. She had her bow. She did not need anyone else.
+
+But then a big wind came. It blew very hard. It blew Lily's bow off her head. Lily gasped. She tried to catch it. But it was too late. The wind carried her bow away. She could not see it anymore.
+
+Lily started to cry. She wanted her bow back. She looked for Mia. But Mia was gone. She had left with her mom. Lily was alone. She had no bow. She had no friend. She wished she had been nicer to Mia. She wished she had shared her bow. She realized that her bow was not that important. But it was too late. The end.
+One day, Tom and Lily went to the park with their mom. They saw a big pine tree with many green needles. Tom said, "I want to act like a pine tree. Watch me!" He stood very still and stretched his arms like branches. He made a funny face and said, "I am a pine tree. I do not talk or move."
+
+Lily laughed and said, "You are not a pine tree. You are a foolish boy. Pine trees do not have faces or arms. They have cones and bark. You look silly, not like a pine tree." She ran around the tree and touched the cones and the bark. She said, "This is a pine tree. It is tall and strong and smells good."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You are both very clever and creative. You can act like anything you want. But remember, you are also my children and I love you very much. Now, let's have a picnic under the pine tree. I have some sandwiches and juice for you." She spread a blanket on the grass and called Tom and Lily to join her. They ate and drank and had a lot of fun. They thanked the pine tree for giving them shade and beauty. They hugged mom and said, "We love you too, mom. You are the best."
+Lily liked candy very much. She saw a big jar of candy on the shelf. She wanted to have some candy, but she was too small to reach the jar. She looked around and saw a chair. She had an idea. She pushed the chair to the shelf and climbed on it. She was very happy.
+
+She reached for the jar of candy and tried to grab it. But the jar was too heavy and slippery. She could not hold it well. She pulled the jar and it fell down. It hit the floor and broke into many pieces. The candy spilled everywhere. Lily was very scared.

+
+Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She did not mean to hurt Tom. She thought he would laugh too. She said, "Wait, Tom, I'm sorry, I was just joking! Please come back, I'm sorry!"
+
+But Tom did not hear her. He ran to his mom and told her what happened. His mom hugged him and said, "It's okay, Tom, we can fix your pants and your buckle. Don't be sad, it was an accident.

+
+Mommy hugged Timmy and said, "I know, honey, I know. But sometimes things break and we have to let them go. Maybe you can keep it as a toy, but not as a truck. Or maybe you can give it to someone who can fix it better than us."

+
+Tom frowns. "But it has hands. And it moves. And it makes noise. Like a bird. Maybe it is a big bird."

+One day, Lily saw a flyer on the street. It said, "Gifted pony for sale. Cheap and friendly. Call now." Lily was very excited. She picked up the flyer and ran home. She showed it to her mom and dad and begged them to buy the pony for her. They looked at the flyer and frowned. They said it was too good to be true. They said it was probably a trick or a lie.
+
+But Lily did not listen. She wanted the pony so much. She took the flyer and hid it in her room. She waited until her mom and dad were asleep. Then she sneaked out of the house. She took some money from her piggy bank and a flashlight. She followed the address on the flyer. It was very dark and very far. She was scared, but she kept going.
+
+She finally reached a big barn. She saw a sign that said, "Pony for sale. Knock here." She knocked on the door. A man opened it. He was tall and mean. He had a big scar on his face and a dirty hat. He smiled at Lily and said, "Hello, little girl. Are you here for the pony?"
+
+Lily nodded. She showed him the flyer and the money. She said, "Yes, please. I want the pony. Is he gifted? Is he friendly?"
+
+The man laughed. He said, "Oh, yes. He is very gifted and very friendly. He is the best pony in the world. Come, I'll show you." He took Lily by the hand and led her inside the barn. He closed the door behind them.
+
+Lily never saw the pony. She never saw her mom and dad again. She never saw anything again. The man was not selling a pony. He was selling children. He was a bad man. He did a bad thing. Lily was very sad. She wished she had listened to her mom and dad. She wished she had never seen the flyer. She wished she had never admired the pony.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big pile of leaves. They wanted to jump in it and have fun.
+
+"Let's throw some leaves in the air!" Ben said.
+
+"OK!" Lily said.
+
+They ran to the pile and started to throw leaves. They laughed and smiled. They felt happy.
+
+But then, they saw something scary. It was a skeleton. It was hiding under the leaves. It had no skin or hair. It had only bones.
+
+"Ah!" Ben and Lily screamed. They were afraid. They ran away from the pile.
+
+"Who are you?" the skeleton asked. It was not mean. It was humble. It was lonely.
+
+"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to play with you. I have no friends. Everyone is afraid of me."
+
+Ben and Lily stopped. They looked at the skeleton. They felt sorry for it.
+
+"Maybe we can be your friends," Ben said.
+
+"Really?" the skeleton said.
+
+"Yes, really," Lily said.
+
+They went back to the pile. They threw some leaves on the skeleton. They made it look funny. They laughed with it. They felt kind.
+
+The skeleton was happy. It had friends. It thanked Ben and Lily.
+
+They played together until it was time to go home. They said goodbye to the skeleton. They promised to come back.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their cart in the park. They liked to fill it with leaves, rocks and sticks and pretend they were going on a big adventure. They took turns to push and pull the cart, and to make noises like a car or a train.
+
+"Beep beep! Watch out, we are coming!" Lily said, as she pushed the cart along the path.
+
+"Choo choo! We are the fastest cart in the world!" Ben said, as he pulled the cart behind him.
+
+They were having so much fun, they did not see the big dog that was running towards them. The dog was big and black, and it had a loud bark. It wanted to play with the cart, too. It jumped on the cart and knocked it over, spilling all the leaves, rocks and sticks on the ground.
+
+"Hey, bad dog! Leave our cart alone!" Lily shouted, as she tried to shoo the dog away.
+
+"Go away, bad dog! You are not nice!" Ben shouted, as he tried to pick up the cart.
+
+The dog did not listen. It barked and wagged its tail, and tried to grab the cart with its teeth. Lily and Ben were scared and angry. They did not want to play with the dog. They wanted their cart back.
+
+They paused and looked around. They saw a lady walking towards them. She had a leash in her hand. She was the dog's owner.
+
+"Sorry, kids, I'm so sorry! He's just a puppy, he doesn't know any better. He likes to play with anything that moves. Come here, Rover, come here!" she said, as she ran to catch the dog.
+
+She grabbed the dog by the collar and put the leash on him. She apologized again and helped Lily and Ben to fix their cart. She gave them a treat and a pat on the head.
+
+"Thank you, lady. You are nice. But your dog is bad. He should not mess with our cart," Lily said.
+
+"Yeah, thank you, lady. But your dog is bad. He should learn to share and be gentle," Ben said.
+
+The lady nodded and smiled. She said she would teach her dog to behave better. She said goodbye and walked away with the dog.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at their cart. It was a bit dirty and scratched, but it was still their cart. They decided to keep playing with it. They filled it with new leaves, rocks and sticks and continued their adventure.
+
+"Beep beep! Watch out, we are coming!" Lily said, as she pushed the cart along the path.
+
+"Choo choo! We are the fastest cart in the world!" Ben said, as he pulled the cart behind him.
+
+They were happy again. They forgot about the bad dog. They only remembered their cart and their fun.
+Lila liked to draw with ink. She had many colors of ink and many papers. She drew flowers, animals, stars and more. She was gifted at drawing. She made her drawings look real and pretty.
+
+One day, she wanted to send a drawing to her grandma. Her grandma lived far away and Lila missed her. She asked her mom for an envelope and a stamp. She picked her best drawing of a bird and put it in the envelope. She wrote her grandma's name and address on the front.
+
+"Can we go to the post office, mom?" Lila asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. Let's go," her mom said. They put on their coats and shoes and walked to the post office. Lila gave her envelope to the nice lady behind the counter.
+
+"Thank you for sending this letter," the lady said. "Your grandma will love your drawing. You are very gifted."
+
+Lila smiled and thanked the lady. She hoped her grandma would get her drawing soon and be happy. She was happy to send her ink drawing to her grandma. She loved her grandma very much.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they also fight. One morning, they are having breakfast with Mom and Dad. Mom makes toast for them. She puts butter and jam on the toast.
+
+"Here you go, Ben and Lily. Enjoy your toast," Mom says.
+
+Ben takes a bite of his toast. He makes a face. He does not like it.
+
+"Mom, this toast is cool. I want hot toast," he says. He complains to Mom.
+
+Lily takes a bite of her toast. She smiles. She likes it.
+
+"Mom, this toast is yummy. Thank you, Mom," she says. She is happy with her toast.
+
+Mom looks at Ben and Lily. She is confused.
+
+"Ben, your toast is the same as Lily's toast. They are both warm and sweet. Why do you complain?" she asks.
+
+Ben looks at Lily. He sees that she is happy. He feels bad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. I was wrong. The toast is good. Can I have some more, please?" he says.
+
+Mom smiles. She is glad that Ben changed his mind.
+
+"Of course, Ben. You can have some more toast. And Lily, you can have some more too. I'm happy that you both like your toast," she says.
+
+She gives them more toast. Ben and Lily eat their toast. They are full and happy. They hug Mom and Dad.
+
+"Thank you, Mom and Dad. We love you," they say.
+
+Mom and Dad hug them back.
+
+"We love you too, Ben and Lily. You are our sweet twins," they say.
+
+They finish their breakfast. They get ready for the day. They have fun playing together. They do not fight. They are good twins.
+Lily liked to play with her mom's telephone. She liked to press the buttons and hear the sounds. She liked to pretend she was talking to her friends or her grandma. But mom did not like it when Lily played with her telephone. She said it was not a toy and Lily could break it or call someone by mistake.
+
+One day, mom was busy in the kitchen and Lily saw the telephone on the table. She wanted to play with it, but she remembered what mom said. She looked around and saw no one was watching. She grabbed the telephone and ran to her room. She closed the door and hid under the bed with the telephone.
+
+She pressed some buttons and heard a voice. It was a man who said hello. Lily did not know who he was, but she thought he sounded cute. She said hello back and asked him his name. He said his name was Tom and he was a firefighter. Lily liked firefighters. They were brave and had big trucks. She asked him if he had a truck. He said he did and he was on his way to a fire. He asked her who she was and how she got his number.
+
+Lily did not want to tell him the truth. She was afraid he would be angry or tell mom. She made up a name and said she was his friend. She said she got his number from a book. She asked him to tell her about the fire. He said it was a big fire and he had to go. He said he would call her back later. He said goodbye and hung up.
+
+Lily was happy. She had a new friend who was a firefighter. She wanted to talk to him again. She did not hear mom knocking on the door. She did not hear mom calling her name. She did not hear mom opening the door. She did not see mom's face when she saw Lily with the telephone. She only heard mom's voice when she said, "Lily, what are you doing with my telephone?"
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a soft teddy bear that she loved very much. Tom had a shiny car that he liked to zoom around. They were happy and shared their toys with each other.
+
+One day, a new girl came to visit. Her name was Anna. She brought a big doll with her. The doll had long hair, a pretty dress and shoes that made noise. Anna showed her doll to Lily and Tom and said, "Look at my doll. She is the best. She can talk and sing and dance. Your toys are boring and old. You should give them to me."
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and angry. They did not want to give their toys to Anna. They said, "No, we like our toys. They are not boring and old. They are special and fun. We value our toys. They have different textures that we enjoy. The teddy bear is soft and cuddly. The car is shiny and smooth. We are grateful for our toys. They make us happy and comfort us. You are not nice. You should not say mean things and ask for our toys."
+
+Anna did not listen. She tried to grab the teddy bear and the car from Lily and Tom. They held on to their toys and said, "Stop it! Leave us alone!" They ran away from Anna and hid behind the couch. They hugged their toys and whispered, "We love you. You are our friends."
+
+Anna was left alone with her doll. She felt lonely and sorry. She realized that she had been rude and selfish. She wanted to make friends with Lily and Tom. She walked over to the couch and said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong. Your toys are not boring and old. They are special and fun. You value your toys. They have different textures that you enjoy. You are grateful for your toys. They make you happy and comfort you. Can I play with you and your toys? Can we be friends?"
+
+Lily and Tom peeked out from behind the couch. They saw that Anna looked sad and sincere. They decided to forgive her and give her a chance. They said, "Okay. You can play with us and our toys. But you have to be nice and share. We can be friends."
+
+Anna smiled and nodded. She said, "Thank you. I'm sorry. I'll be nice and share. We can be friends." She joined Lily and Tom on the floor. They played with their toys together. They learned to appreciate each other's toys and their different textures. They had fun and became friends. They were happy and grateful.
+Ben and Lily wanted to help Mom make a cake. They were very excited. Mom said they could measure the flour and the sugar. She gave them a big spoon and a cup.
+
+"Be careful, don't spill," Mom said. "And don't touch the knife. It is sharp and can hurt you."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They took turns to fill the cup with the spoon. They poured the flour and the sugar into a big bowl. They felt proud.
+
+"Can we stir, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, you can," Mom said. She gave them a wooden spoon. "But don't lick it. The batter is not ready yet."
+
+Ben and Lily stirred the batter. It was thick and sticky. They smiled at each other. They liked to help Mom make a cake. They wondered how it would taste.
+Tom is a boy who likes to visit his grandma. Grandma lives in a small house with a big garden. She has a brown dog named Spot. Spot is very friendly and likes to play with Tom.
+
+One day, Tom goes to visit grandma with his mom. He brings a gift for grandma: a drawing of her and Spot. He is very proud of his drawing. He knocks on the door and grandma opens it. She smiles and says, "Hello, Tom! I'm so happy to see you!"
+
+Tom gives grandma a big hug and shows her his drawing. Grandma is very happy and says, "Thank you, Tom! This is a beautiful drawing! You are very talented and kind!"
+
+Tom and grandma go to the garden and play with Spot. They throw a ball and Spot runs after it. They laugh and have fun. Tom's mom watches them and smiles.
+
+After a while, Tom's mom says, "It's time to go, Tom. We have to go home and make dinner."
+
+Tom says, "Okay, mom. But can I come back and visit grandma and Spot soon?"
+
+Mom says, "Of course, Tom. Grandma and Spot love you very much and they always enjoy your visits."
+
+Tom gives grandma and Spot another hug and says, "Bye, grandma! Bye, Spot! I love you too!"
+
+Tom and mom leave and grandma waves at them. She says, "Bye, Tom! Bye, mom! Thank you for the visit and the drawing! Come back soon!"
+
+The moral of the story is: Visiting and hugging your loved ones makes them happy and shows them you care.
+Tom and Lily went to the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells and stones. They saw many crabs walking on the rocks and in the water. Tom wanted to catch a crab and put it in his bucket. Lily was scared of the crabs and told him to leave them alone.
+
+"Crabs are fun, Lily. They have big claws and funny eyes. I want to test how strong they are," Tom said. He ran to the rocks and picked up a crab with his hand. The crab was angry and pinched Tom's finger. Tom cried out and dropped the crab.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! That hurt!" Tom said. He ran back to his mom and dad, who put some ice on his finger. Lily followed him and shook her head.
+
+"See, Tom? I told you not to touch the crabs. They don't like it when you bother them. You were ignorant, Tom. You didn't listen to me or the crabs," Lily said.
+
+Tom felt sorry and ashamed. He looked at his finger and then at the crab, who was walking away. He realized that Lily was right. He had been ignorant and rude to the crab. He said to Lily, "I'm sorry, Lily. You were smart and kind. I was ignorant and mean. I won't test the crabs anymore. I will respect them and watch them from far."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Tom. She said, "It's okay, Tom. I forgive you. You learned your lesson. Crabs are fun to watch, but not to touch. They have feelings too, you know."
+
+Tom and Lily went back to the sand and played with their shells and stones. They watched the crabs from a safe distance and enjoyed their day at the beach.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with toys. But they do not like to share. One day, they see a big box in the living room. It has a picture of a robot on it. They both want the robot.
+
+"Wow, look at that robot! It can talk and walk and shoot lasers!" Tom says.
+
+"No, it is mine! I saw it first!" Sam says.
+
+They run to the box and try to open it. But it is locked. They look for a key. They find a note on the table. It says: "To Tom and Sam, this is your present. But you have to pay a price. You have to tell me the truth. Did you lie to me yesterday?"
+
+Tom and Sam remember. Yesterday, they broke a vase in the kitchen. They told their mom that the cat did it. But it was a lie. They were playing with a ball and it hit the vase.
+
+They look at each other. They feel bad. They do not want to lie to their mom. But they also want the robot.
+
+"What should we do?" Tom asks.
+
+"Maybe we can tell her a little lie. Maybe we can say that the cat helped us break the vase." Sam says.
+
+They go to their mom. They tell her the little lie. They hope she will believe them. They hope she will give them the key.
+
+But their mom is not happy. She knows they are lying. She says: "I am sorry, boys. But you cannot have the robot. It is not a real robot. It is a fake robot. It does not talk or walk or shoot lasers. It is just a toy. I wanted to teach you a lesson. Lying is bad. It hurts people. It makes you lose trust. You have to tell the truth. That is the price of having a real present."
+
+Tom and Sam feel sad. They feel sorry. They hug their mom. They say: "We are sorry, mom. We lied to you. We broke the vase. It was not the cat. We will not lie again. We love you."
+
+Their mom smiles. She hugs them back. She says: "I love you too, boys. I forgive you. You are my real present. And I have a surprise for you. Come with me."
+
+She takes them to the garage. She shows them two bikes. They are shiny and new. They have their names on them.
+
+"These are your real presents. They are not fake. They are for you. You can ride them and have fun. But you have to be careful. And you have to be honest. Do you like them?" She asks.
+
+Tom and Sam are happy. They are excited. They say: "Yes, mom. We love them. Thank you, mom. You are the best mom."
+
+They hug their mom again. They take their bikes. They go outside. They ride them together. They share them with their friends. They do not lie anymore. They tell the truth. They learn their lesson. They are happy.
+Tommy loves trains. He has many toy trains that he plays with every day. He likes to make them go fast and loud on the tracks. He also likes to watch real trains at the station with his mom.
+
+One day, Tommy and his mom go to the station to see the big trains. Tommy is very excited. He wants to see the red train, the blue train, and the green train. He runs to the platform and looks for them.
+
+But then, he feels a tickle in his nose. He tries to hold it in, but he can't. He sneezes very hard. Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!
+
+"Oh no, Tommy, are you okay?" his mom asks. She gives him a tissue and hugs him.
+
+"I'm okay, mom. But I missed the trains!" Tommy says. He is sad. He looks at the tracks, but they are empty.
+
+"Don't worry, Tommy. There will be more trains soon. Let's sit on the bench and wait for them, okay?" his mom says. She is compassionate. She knows Tommy loves trains.
+
+"Okay, mom. Thank you," Tommy says. He wipes his nose and smiles. He sits on the bench with his mom and holds her hand. He hopes to see the trains soon. He still loves trains.
+Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys and their dog, Spot. But sometimes they fight over who gets what. Lily is selfish. She wants all the toys and all the food.
+
+One day, Mom makes them sandwiches and milk for lunch. She puts them on the table and tells them to share. Lily runs to the table and grabs two sandwiches and a glass of milk. She leaves one sandwich and no milk for Tom.
+
+Tom is sad and angry. He says, "That's not fair, Lily! You are selfish! You have to share!" Lily says, "No, I don't! These are mine! Go away!" She bites into a sandwich and smiles.
+
+Tom tries to take a sandwich from Lily, but she pushes him away. He falls to the floor and hurts his knee. He cries out loud. Spot hears him and runs to him. He licks his knee and wags his tail. He is a good dog.
+
+Mom hears Tom crying and comes to see what happened. She sees Lily with two sandwiches and a glass of milk, and Tom with nothing but a hurt knee and a dog. She is angry with Lily. She says, "Lily, you are selfish! You have to share with your brother! He is hungry and hurt! Give him a sandwich and some milk, now!"
+
+Lily feels ashamed. She knows she was wrong. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. I'm sorry, Mom. Here, you can have a sandwich and some milk. I don't need them all." She gives Tom a sandwich and some milk. She hugs him and says, "I love you, Tom. I'm sorry I hurt you."
+
+Tom smiles and says, "I love you, too, Lily. Thank you for sharing." He eats his sandwich and drinks his milk. He feels better. He shares his dog with Lily. They play together and have fun. They are not selfish anymore. They are happy.
+Jill and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big swamp near their house. They wanted to see what was in it, so they walked closer. They saw frogs, bugs, and plants. They also saw something shiny in the water.
+
+"Look, Tom, a shiny thing!" Jill said. "Maybe it is a treasure!"
+
+"Let's get it!" Tom said. He took off his shoes and socks and stepped into the swamp. He felt the mud and water on his feet. He walked towards the shiny thing.
+
+Jill watched Tom from the shore. She started to worry. She saw a big snake near Tom. She did not like snakes. They were scary and could bite. She shouted to Tom.
+
+"Tom, watch out! There is a snake!"
+
+Tom heard Jill and looked around. He saw the snake too. It was big and green and had red eyes. It was a rare snake that lived only in the swamp. It hissed at Tom and moved closer.
+
+Tom was scared. He wanted to run away, but he was stuck in the mud. He did not know what to do. He wished he had not gone into the swamp.
+
+"Help, Jill, help!" Tom cried.
+
+Jill wanted to help Tom, but she did not know how. She looked around and saw a big stick. She picked it up and ran to the swamp. She threw the stick at the snake. The stick hit the snake on the head. The snake was angry and hurt. It let go of Tom and slithered away.
+
+Tom was free. He ran out of the swamp and hugged Jill. He was wet and dirty and scared, but he was safe.
+
+"Thank you, Jill, thank you!" Tom said. "You saved me from the snake!"
+
+"You're welcome, Tom, you're welcome!" Jill said. "You are my friend!"
+
+They smiled at each other and walked back to their house. They decided to never go to the swamp again. They learned that the swamp was not a good place to play. They also learned that the shiny thing was not a treasure, but a can. They threw it in the trash. They did not care about the can. They cared about each other. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing with blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes.
+
+"Look at my tower!" Lily said. "It is very tall and has many colors. It is the best tower ever!"
+
+Ben looked at his tower. It was not very tall and had only blue and green blocks. He felt sad. He wanted to have a better tower.
+
+"I have an idea," Ben said. "Let's make one big tower together. We can use all our blocks and make it very big and beautiful. We can include all the colors and shapes we have."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She liked her tower, but she also liked Ben. She did not want him to be sad. She nodded and smiled.
+
+"Okay, let's do that," she said. "It will be fun to share and work together."
+
+They started to take apart their towers and put the blocks in a big pile. Then they began to build one big tower together. They took turns to choose the blocks and place them on the tower. They talked and laughed and helped each other.
+
+Soon, their tower was very big and beautiful. It had all the colors and shapes they had. It was the biggest tower they had ever seen.
+
+"Wow, look at our tower!" Ben said. "It is amazing! It has zero bad blocks and zero holes. It is the best tower ever!"
+
+Lily agreed. She was very happy. She hugged Ben and said, "You are right. It is the best tower ever. And we made it together. We are a great team. I am proud of us!"
+
+They looked at their tower and felt proud. They learned that sharing and working together can make things better and more fun. They decided to keep their tower and play with it again. They were happy and good friends.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big pink balloon in the sky. It was very pretty and shiny. They wanted to catch it.
+
+They ran after the balloon. They did not see the wild dog. The dog was big and black and angry. It barked and chased them. Lily and Max were scared. They screamed for help.
+
+A man heard them. He came with a stick. He shooed the dog away. He was very brave and kind. He gave Lily and Max a hug. He also gave them the pink balloon. It had fallen from the sky. Lily and Max were happy. They thanked the man. They played with the balloon. They did not see the wild dog again.
+Sara and Ben like to play with water. They have a hose in the garden. They can turn on the hose and spray water. They spray water on the flowers, on the grass, on the dog and on each other. They laugh and get wet.
+
+One day, they see something in the sky. It is a big bird. It is white and has a long neck. It is a swan. The swan flies over the garden. Sara and Ben want to say hello to the swan. They spray water in the air. They hope the swan will see them.
+
+The swan sees the water. It thinks it is a lake. It wants to land on the water. It flies down to the water. But it is not a lake. It is a hose. The swan gets wet and surprised. It flaps its wings and flies away. Sara and Ben are sorry. They did not mean to scare the swan. They wave goodbye to the swan. They hope the swan will find a real lake. They go back to playing with water. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They go to school every day. They like to learn new things and play with their friends. But they do not like quiz time. Quiz time is when the teacher asks them questions about what they learned. Quiz time is hard and boring.
+
+One day, the teacher says, "Today we have a quiz on animals. I will show you pictures of different animals and you have to tell me their names and sounds. Are you ready?" Tom and Lily groan. They do not want to do the quiz. They want to play.
+
+The teacher shows the first picture. It is a big, brown animal with a long nose and big ears. "What is this animal?" the teacher asks. "And what sound does it make?"
+
+Some children raise their hands. They know the answer. But Tom and Lily do not. They are lazy. They did not listen when the teacher taught them about animals. They whisper to each other, "What is that? Is it a dog? Does it bark?"
+
+The teacher hears them. She is angry. She says, "Tom and Lily, you are disturbing the class. You are not paying attention. You do not know the answer. This animal is an elephant. It makes a loud sound like this: 'trumpet, trumpet'. Now, be quiet and listen."
+
+Tom and Lily feel ashamed. They do not want to disturb the class. They do not want to make the teacher angry. They do not want to fail the quiz. They decide to try harder. They look at the next picture. It is a small, black and white animal with a fluffy tail and a mask on its face. They think hard. They remember what the teacher said. They raise their hands. They say, "That is a raccoon. It makes a sound like this: 'chitter, chitter'."
+
+The teacher smiles. She says, "Very good, Tom and Lily. You are right. That is a raccoon. You are learning. Keep it up."
+
+Tom and Lily feel happy. They are not lazy anymore. They are not disturbing anymore. They are doing the quiz. They are having fun. They like quiz time. They like to learn new things and play with their friends.
+Tim and Lily went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells. Sometimes they saw crabs in the water. They were small and had claws and legs.
+
+"Look, Tim, a crab!" Lily said, pointing to a rock. She ran to the rock and tried to catch the crab. But the crab was fast and hid under the rock.
+
+"Be careful, Lily, crabs can pinch you!" Tim said. He followed Lily and helped her look for the crab. He saw a hole under the rock and put his hand in it.
+
+"Ow!" Tim cried. He pulled his hand out and saw a red mark on his finger. The crab had pinched him!
+
+"Are you okay, Tim?" Lily asked. She hugged Tim and kissed his finger.
+
+"I'm okay, Lily, but it hurts," Tim said. He showed his finger to Mom and Dad. They put some cream on it and gave him a band-aid.
+
+"Crabs are hungry, too, Tim," Dad said. "They remind me of you when you skip your breakfast."
+
+Tim smiled. He was hungry, too. He and Lily ate some sandwiches and juice. They decided to leave the crabs alone and play with their buckets and shovels instead. They had fun at the beach.
+Tom is a boy who likes to study animals. He has many books with pictures of animals. He likes to look at the pictures and learn their names and sounds. His favorite animal is the zebra. He likes the zebra because it has black and white stripes and a long tail.
+
+One day, Tom goes to the zoo with his mom and dad. He is very happy to see the real animals. He sees lions, monkeys, elephants, and many more. But he is most excited to see the zebras. He runs to the fence and points at them. He says, "Look, mom, look, dad, zebras!"
+
+Tom's mom and dad smile and take him closer to the fence. They see a big zebra and a small zebra. The big zebra is the mom and the small zebra is the baby. The mom zebra is eating some grass.

+Mia liked to draw with pastels. She had many colors, but her favorite was red. She used red to draw flowers, hearts, and apples. She also liked to draw her cat, Luna, who was black and white.
+
+One day, Mia found a new pastel in her box. It was not red, but pink. She wondered what it would look like on paper. She decided to try it out and draw a big pink cake with candles. She thought it would be a nice surprise for her mom, who had a birthday soon.
+
+She took her paper and pastels and went to the living room. She saw Luna sleeping on the couch. She did not want to wake her up, so she tiptoed quietly. She found a spot on the floor where she could draw. She started to make the cake with the pink pastel.
+
+But then, Luna opened her eyes. She saw the pink pastel in Mia's hand. She thought it was a toy. She jumped off the couch and ran to Mia. She tried to grab the pastel with her paw. Mia was scared. She did not want Luna to break her pastel or scratch her paper. She shouted, "No, Luna, no!"
+
+Luna did not listen. She kept chasing the pastel. Mia tried to hold it away from her. She moved around the floor, but Luna followed her. They made a lot of noise and mess. They knocked over a lamp, a vase, and a book. They also left pastel marks on the carpet, the wall, and the couch.
+
+Mia's mom heard the commotion. She came to the living room. She saw Mia and Luna and the chaos. She was not happy. She said, "Mia, Luna, what are you doing? Look at this mess! You need to settle down and clean up!"
+
+Mia felt sorry. She did not mean to make her mom angry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to draw you a cake for your birthday. But Luna wanted my pastel. She thought it was a toy."
+
+Mia's mom looked at the paper. She saw the pink cake with candles. She smiled. She said, "That's very sweet of you, Mia. Thank you for thinking of me. But you need to be careful with your pastels. They are not toys. They are for drawing. And you need to respect Luna's space. She likes to sleep on the couch. You should not bother her."
+
+Mia nodded. She said, "I understand, mom. I will be more careful and respectful. Can I still give you the cake?"
+
+Mia's mom hugged her. She said, "Of course you can, my dear. It's a beautiful cake. I love it. And I love you. And I love Luna, too. Even if she is a little naughty sometimes."
+
+Mia smiled. She said, "I love you, too, mom. And I love Luna, too. Even if she likes my pastels."

+
+"Tom, why did you scream like that?" his mom asked.
+
+"I wanted cake!" Tom said.
+
+"But you had to wait, Tom. It was not polite to scream at the party. You made everyone unhappy," his dad said.
+
+Tom felt sorry. He did not mean to make everyone unhappy. He just wanted some cake. He looked at his mom and dad with big eyes.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom and dad. I won't scream anymore," he said.
+
+"Thank you, Tom. We love you, but you have to learn to be quiet sometimes. Especially at fancy parties," his mom said.
+
+They hugged Tom and gave him a kiss. Then they went back to the party. Tom did not scream anymore. He waited for his turn to have some cake. He even sang the birthday song. He learned his lesson. He still liked to scream, but he knew when to do it and when not to do it. He was a good boy.
