+
+But the water was filthy. It was brown and smelly. Lily and Ben did not like the water. They did not want to wash their hands or their worms in it.
+
+"Yuck, the water is dirty!" Lily said, making a face.
+
+"Where did the dirty water come from?" Ben asked, looking around.
+
+They saw a big truck near the tap. The truck had a hose that was connected to the tap. The truck was sucking the water from the tap and putting it in a tank.
+
+The truck driver saw Lily and Ben. He waved at them and said, "Sorry, kids, I'm cleaning the tap. The water will be clean soon. Don't use the tap until I'm done."

+Tom is a big boy. He likes to help his mom in the kitchen. He can wash the dishes and put them away. He can also make toast and jam for breakfast.
+
+One day, Tom wants to learn how to make soup. He asks his mom to teach him. His mom smiles and says, "Okay, Tom. Let's make soup together. You can help me chop the vegetables and stir the pot."

+Tom is happy. He gets a knife and a cutting board. His mom gives him a carrot, a potato, and an onion. She shows him how to peel and cut them into small pieces. Tom tries to copy her. He is careful not to cut his fingers.
+
+When they are done, his mom puts the vegetables in a big pot with water and salt. She turns on the stove and lets the soup boil. She tells Tom to watch the pot and stir it sometimes. She also gives him a spoon to taste the soup.

+
+He calls his mom and says, "Mom, the soup is ready. I added cheese. It is yummy. Come and try it."
+
+His mom comes and looks at the soup. She sees that it is gray and lumpy. She smells it and makes a face. She says, "Tom, what did you do? You put cheese in the soup? That is not how you make soup. Cheese does not go with soup. It makes it gray and bad. You ruined the soup."
+
+Tom is sad. He did not know that cheese does not go with soup. He wanted to make the soup better. He says, "I'm sorry, mom. I thought cheese would make the soup yummy. I like cheese. I wanted to help you. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+His mom sees that Tom is sad. She feels sorry for him. She says, "It's okay, Tom. I'm not mad at you. You tried to help me. You wanted to learn how to make soup. That is good. But you have to follow the recipe. You have to ask me before you add anything. Cheese is good for some things, but not for soup. Next time, we will make soup together again. And I will teach you what goes with soup and what does not. Okay?"
+
+Tom nods. He says, "Okay, mom. I'm sorry. I love you."
+
+His mom hugs him. She says, "I love you too, Tom. You are a good boy. Come on, let's make some toast and jam instead. And we will throw away the gray soup. Maybe we can give the cheese to the cat. He likes cheese."

+Leo was a little lion who loved to roar. He roared when he woke up, he roared when he played, and he roared when he was hungry. He thought roaring was the best way to show how he felt.
+
+One day, he went to a restaurant with his mom and dad. They gave him a menu to look at. It had pictures of different foods. Leo saw a picture of a big steak. He wanted to eat it. He pointed at the picture and roared.
+
+"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
+
+The waiter came over and looked at Leo. He was not happy. He said, "Shh! You have to be quiet in the restaurant. You are scaring the other customers. They don't like loud noises."
+
+Leo did not understand. He was not trying to scare anyone. He was just hungry. He looked at his mom and dad. They looked sad. They said, "Leo, you have to be polite and use your words. You can't roar in the restaurant. You have to say please and thank you."
+
+Leo felt bad. He did not want to make his mom and dad sad. He did not want to make the waiter angry. He did not want to make the other customers scared. He wanted to be a good lion. He looked at the menu again. He saw another picture of a food he liked. It was a bowl of pasta. He pointed at the picture and said, "Please, can I have pasta?"
+
+The waiter smiled. He said, "Yes, you can have pasta. That's a good choice. You are a very organized lion. You know what you want. And you are very polite. You said please. Thank you for being quiet and respectful."

+Leo smiled too. He felt happy. He learned a new word. He learned how to be organized. He learned how to be polite. He learned how to use his words. He waited for his pasta. He did not roar anymore. He said, "Thank you, waiter. Thank you, mom and dad. I love you."
+One day, Lily and Ben went to the park with their mom. They liked to play on the swings and the slide, but they also liked to look for bugs in the grass. They had a small jar with holes in the lid, where they put the bugs they found.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a worm!" Ben said, holding a long, slimy thing in his hand. "It's brown and wiggly. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily nodded and came closer to Ben. She reached out her hand to touch the worm, but Ben pulled it away.
+
+"No, you can't touch it. It's mine. I found it first," Ben said, holding the worm close to his chest.
+
+"That's not fair, Ben. I want to see the worm too. Please, let me touch it," Lily said, making a sad face.
+
+Ben sighed and rolled his eyes. He liked his sister, but sometimes she was annoying. He decided to play a trick on her.
+
+"Okay, fine. You can touch the worm, but only if you rub it on your tongue first. It's very spicy, like hot sauce. Do you dare?" Ben said, grinning.
+
+Lily looked at the worm and then at Ben. She was curious, but also scared. She didn't like spicy things. They made her mouth hurt and her eyes water.
+
+"No, thank you, Ben. I don't want to rub the worm on my tongue. That's gross and mean. You can keep your worm. I'll find my own bug," Lily said, turning away from Ben.
+
+Ben felt a pang of guilt. He didn't mean to make Lily upset. He just wanted to have some fun. He realized he was being a bad brother.
+
+"Wait, Lily, I'm sorry. I was just joking. You don't have to rub the worm on your tongue. Here, you can have it. I'll find another one," Ben said, running after Lily and handing her the worm.
+
+Lily smiled and took the worm from Ben. She looked at it closely and saw that it had tiny eyes and a mouth. She felt it tickle her palm as it moved.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. That's very nice of you. The worm is cute. Do you want to share it with me?" Lily said, holding the worm out to Ben.
+
+Ben smiled back and nodded. He felt happy that Lily forgave him. He took the worm from Lily and held it in his other hand.
+
+"Yes, let's share it. We can put it in our jar and give it a name. How about Wiggly?" Ben said, as they walked back to their mom.
+
+Lily agreed and they put the worm in their jar. They gave it some grass and dirt to eat and some water to drink. They watched it curl and stretch in its new home.
+
+They decided that Wiggly was their new friend. And they promised to be nice to each other and to the worm.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the park. They see many things in nature. They see birds, flowers, trees, and bugs. They feel happy and curious.
+
+One day, they find a big rock. They want to climb on it. They help each other to reach the top. They feel proud and excited.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Sara says. She points to the sky. She sees a rainbow. It has many colors. It looks amazing.
+
+"I see it, I see it!" Ben says. He smiles. He sees the rainbow too. It makes him feel calm and joyful.
+
+They sit on the rock and watch the rainbow. They feel the sun on their skin and the wind in their hair. They hug each other and say, "We love nature. Nature is amazing."
+Sara and Ben like to play with paints. They make pictures of flowers, trees, and animals. They have fun mixing colors and making shapes.
+
+But sometimes they make a mess. Paint gets on their hands, faces, and clothes. Paint also gets on the bench where they sit and on the floor.
+
+"Uh-oh," Sara says. "Mom will be angry. We have to clean up."
+
+Ben nods. He looks for a cloth to wipe the paint. But he can't find one. All the cloths are dirty or wet.
+
+"What can we do?" he asks.
+
+Sara thinks. She is clever. She has an idea.
+
+"Look," she says. "We can use these." She points to some paper towels on the shelf. "They are soft and dry. We can wipe the paint with them."
+
+Ben smiles. He thinks Sara is clever too. He takes some paper towels and helps Sara. They wipe the paint from the bench, the floor, and themselves. They throw the dirty paper towels in the trash.
+
+They finish just in time. Mom comes in and sees them.
+
+"Wow," she says. "You made such beautiful pictures. And you cleaned up so well. You are very clever and responsible."
+
+Sara and Ben beam. They hug Mom and show her their pictures. They are proud of their work and their cleverness.
+Sam and Tom were brothers. They liked to play with their toys in their room. But Sam was lazy. He never put his toys away when he was done. He left them on the floor, on the bed, on the desk. Tom was not lazy. He always put his toys away in the box. He liked his room to be neat and tidy.
+
+One day, Mom came to their room. She saw the mess that Sam had made. She was angry. She said to Sam, "You have to clean up your toys, or I will take them away. You have to restore your room to how it was before. Do you understand?" Sam nodded, but he did not want to clean up. He wanted to watch TV.
+
+Tom said to Sam, "Come on, Sam. Let's clean up together. It will be faster and easier. Then we can watch TV." But Sam said, "No, Tom. You clean up. You like to do it. I don't. I will watch TV." Tom was sad and mad. He said, "That's not fair, Sam. You are lazy and selfish. You have to help me. They are your toys too." But Sam did not listen. He went to the living room and turned on the TV.
+
+Tom started to clean up the toys by himself. He was tired and bored. He wished Sam would help him. He picked up a toy car and put it in the box. He picked up a toy truck and put it in the box. He picked up a toy plane and put it in the box. He picked up a toy robot and put it in the box. He picked up a toy hand and put it in the box. But it was not a toy hand. It was a real hand. It was Sam's hand.
+
+Sam had been playing with a toy saw. He had been pretending to cut things. He had cut his own hand by mistake. He had screamed and dropped the saw and the hand. He had run to the living room and hid behind the couch. He had hoped Mom would not see him. He had hoped Tom would not see him. He had hoped the hand would not see him.
+
+But Tom had seen him. He had seen the hand. He had seen the blood. He had seen the saw. He was shocked and scared. He dropped the hand and ran to Mom. He said, "Mom, Mom, something bad happened. Sam cut his hand. He cut his hand with the saw. He cut his hand off. Look, look, here is his hand." Mom looked and saw the hand. She screamed and fainted.
+
+The end.
+Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big truck. The truck has many tools and machines. The truck is doing work.
+
+"Look, Sam, look!" Mia says. "The truck is making a hole. What is it doing?"
+
+Sam looks at the truck. He sees a man with a yellow hat. The man is holding a big drill. The drill is making a loud noise.
+
+"I think the man is fixing something," Sam says. "Maybe he is putting a pipe or a wire in the ground."
+
+Mia nods. She thinks the man is very brave. She wants to see the pipe or the wire.
+
+"Can we go closer, mom?" Mia asks. "I want to see the work."
+
+Mia's mom shakes her head. She says it is not safe to go near the truck. She says the work is for grown-ups only.
+
+Sam and Mia are sad. They want to see the work. They think the man is lucky. He can use the big drill and the big truck.
+
+"Maybe when we are big, we can do work like that," Sam says.
+
+Mia smiles. She says that would be fun. She says they can pretend to do work now. She says they can use sticks and stones and sand.
+
+Sam and Mia run to the sandbox. They find some sticks and stones and sand. They pretend to make holes and pipes and wires. They have fun. They are happy. They do not need the big truck or the big drill. They have their own work.
+Lily and Max were playing with their blocks on the floor. They liked to build towers and bridges and houses. Sometimes they knocked them down and laughed.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a castle!" Max said, showing his block creation.
+
+"Wow, Max, that's so big and pretty!" Lily said. "Can I play with it?"
+
+"Sure, Lily, you can play with it. But be careful, don't break it!" Max said.
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She moved closer to the castle and touched it gently. She saw a red block on the top. She liked red. She wanted to replace it with a blue block. She thought blue was prettier.
+
+She reached for the red block and tried to pull it out. But the block was stuck. She pulled harder and harder. She didn't notice that the castle was shaking and wobbling.
+
+Suddenly, the castle collapsed. The blocks fell down and made a loud noise. Lily and Max gasped. They looked at the mess on the floor. They felt sad and angry.
+
+"Lily, why did you do that?" Max shouted. "You broke my castle!"
+
+"I'm sorry, Max, I didn't mean to!" Lily cried. "I just wanted to replace the red block with a blue one!"
+
+"That was a bad idea, Lily! You should have asked me first!" Max said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Max, I'm sorry!" Lily said.
+
+They stared at each other for a moment. Then they heard a voice.
+
+"What's going on here?" It was their mom. She came into the room and saw the blocks on the floor. She looked at Lily and Max. She saw their faces. She knew they had a fight.
+
+She sighed and smiled. She knew they were playful and curious. She knew they loved each other.
+
+"Come on, kids, let's clean up this mess," she said. "And then we can build a new castle together. How does that sound?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded and sniffed. They hugged each other and said sorry. They helped their mom pick up the blocks. They felt better.
+
+They decided to make a new castle. They used red and blue blocks. They made it bigger and prettier than before. They played with it happily. They learned to share and cooperate. They had fun.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with cardboard. They make houses, cars, and robots with cardboard. They use scissors, tape, and markers to make their cardboard things.
+
+One day, Sam and Ben find a big cardboard box in the garage. They both want to use it for their play. Sam says, "I saw it first. It is mine. I will make a spaceship with it." Ben says, "No, it is mine. I will make a castle with it." They start to fight over the cardboard box. They pull and push and yell and cry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the garage. She sees Sam and Ben fighting over the cardboard box. She is angry and sad. She says, "Stop fighting right now. You are both naughty. You are not sharing. You are not being original. You are breaking the cardboard box. You are wasting it. You are making a mess. You are hurting each other. Go to your rooms. No more cardboard for you today."
+
+Sam and Ben stop fighting. They look at the cardboard box. It is torn and crumpled and dirty. They look at each other. They have scratches and bruises and tears. They feel sorry and ashamed. They say, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, brother." They go to their rooms. They have no cardboard to play with. They have no fun. They have a bad day.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and pretend they are heroes. One day, they decide to play rescue in their room. Anna is a doctor and Ben is a firefighter.
+
+Anna says, "Oh no, there is a fire in the restaurant! We have to save the people and the food!"
+
+Ben says, "Don't worry, I have my fire truck and my hose. I will put out the fire and you can help the people who are hurt."
+
+They run to the restaurant, which is a cardboard box with a sign that says "Pizza". They see some stuffed animals and dolls inside the box. They pretend they are the customers and the workers.
+
+Ben sprays water from his hose, which is a plastic bottle with a hole. He says, "The fire is out! Everyone is safe!"
+
+Anna takes her doctor kit, which is a bag with some band-aids and a stethoscope. She says, "Let me check if you are okay. You have a small boo-boo, but I can fix it with a band-aid. You are very brave!"
+
+The stuffed animals and dolls thank Anna and Ben for rescuing them. They invite them to stay and eat some pizza. Anna and Ben are happy. They share the pizza, which is a paper plate with some red and yellow circles. They say, "This is the best pizza ever!"
+
+They hug their toys and each other. They say, "We are the best heroes ever!"
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. Sara has a doll with long hair. Ben has a car that can go fast. They are happy with their toys.
+
+One day, they see a new toy in the shop. It is a ball that is smooth and shiny. It can bounce high and make noise. Sara and Ben want the ball. They think it is fun.
+
+They go to the shop with their toys. They ask the shopkeeper if they can trade their toys for the ball. The shopkeeper says yes. He likes the doll and the car. He gives them the ball.
+
+Sara and Ben are excited. They thank the shopkeeper and run outside. They play with the ball. They throw it, catch it, and roll it. They laugh and have fun.
+
+They are happy with their trade. They share the ball and play together. They are good friends.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have a big box of cars and trucks in their room. They pretend they are a team of drivers.
+
+One day, they decide to make a race. They pick their favorite cars and trucks. They make a track with books and pillows. They say, "Ready, set, go!" and start to drive.
+
+Tom drives a red car. He is fast and loud. He says, "Vroom, vroom, I am the best driver!" Lily drives a yellow truck. She is slow and quiet. She says, "Beep, beep, I am a good driver too!"
+
+They drive around the track. They pass the books and the pillows. They have fun. They are busy.
+
+But then, Tom drives too fast. He bumps into a pillow. His car flips over. He says, "Oh no, my car is broken!" Lily stops her truck. She sees Tom is sad. She says, "Don't worry, Tom, I can help you!"
+
+She drives her truck to Tom. She picks up his car with her truck. She says, "Look, Tom, your car is not broken. It is just upside down. I can fix it for you!" She puts his car back on the track. She says, "There, now your car is fine. Let's drive together!"
+
+Tom smiles. He says, "Thank you, Lily, you are a nice friend. You are a good driver too!" They drive together. They finish the race. They hug. They are happy. They are a team.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They look the same, but they like different things. Anna likes to draw and Ben likes to run. One day, they go to the park with Mom.
+
+"Look, a big slide!" Ben says. He runs to the slide and climbs up. Anna follows him slowly. She sees a zip on the slide. She likes zips. She pulls the zip and the slide splits in two.
+
+"Wow, two slides!" Anna says. She smiles and slides down one side. Ben slides down the other side. They meet at the bottom.
+
+"That was fun!" Ben says. "Let's do it again!"
+
+"No, I want to draw," Anna says. She takes out her crayons and paper from her backpack. "You can slide, I will draw."
+
+Ben shrugs and runs back to the slide. Anna sits on a bench and draws a picture of the slide. She draws the zip and the split. She colors the slides with different colors.
+
+Mom comes to see them. She sees the slide and the picture. She is surprised.
+
+"Who did this?" she asks.
+
+"Anna did it," Ben says. "She pulled the zip and the slide split."
+
+"Anna, why did you do that?" Mom asks.
+
+"I like zips," Anna says. "And I like different slides."
+
+Mom sighs. She is not angry, but she is worried. She hopes the slide is not broken. She hugs Anna and Ben.
+
+"You are different, but you are both my twins," she says. "And I love you both."
+Tom likes to play with his toy train. He puts coal in the train and makes it go fast. He likes to see the steam come out of the train. The steam is white and hot.
+
+One day, Tom plays with his train too much. He uses all the coal and the train slows down. The steam becomes less and less. Tom is sad. He wants his train to go fast again.
+
+He asks his mom for more coal. His mom says no. She says the train is weak and needs to rest. She says Tom can play with his train tomorrow. She gives him a book to read instead.
+
+Tom is not happy. He does not want to read a book. He wants to play with his train. He thinks his mom is mean. He cries and throws the book on the floor.
+
+His mom is not happy either. She picks up the book and puts it on the shelf. She tells Tom to go to his room and calm down. She says he can play with his train tomorrow if he is good.
+
+Tom goes to his room. He is still sad and angry. He does not want to wait until tomorrow. He wants to play with his train now. He thinks of a plan. He sneaks out of his room and goes to the kitchen. He looks for something to make his train go fast. He sees a bottle of ketchup. He thinks ketchup is red and hot like coal. He takes the bottle and runs back to his room.
+
+He pours the ketchup into his train. He hopes it will make his train go fast. He pushes the train and waits for the steam. But nothing happens. The train does not move. The ketchup does not make steam. It only makes a mess. Tom is shocked. He does not understand. He thinks ketchup is broken.
+
+He hears his mom coming. He knows he is in trouble. He tries to hide the train and the ketchup. But it is too late. His mom sees the mess and the train. She is very angry. She scolds Tom and takes away his train. She says he has to clean up the mess and go to bed. She says he can not play with his train for a week.
+
+Tom is very sorry. He wishes he had listened to his mom. He wishes he had read the book instead. He learns his lesson. He does not use ketchup for coal again. He waits for his train to get strong. He hopes his mom will forgive him. He says he loves his mom and his train. He says he will be good. He goes to bed and dreams of steam.
+Tom and Anna were friends who liked to play together. One day, they went to the park with their moms. They saw a big slide and ran to it. They took turns to slide down and had fun.
+
+"Can I have your jelly, please?" Tom asked Anna. He was hungry and liked jelly a lot.
+
+Anna looked at her jelly. It was red and shiny and smelled good. She did not want to share it. "No, it is mine. Go away!" she said.
+
+Tom felt sad and angry. He wanted the jelly very much. He waited until Anna was not looking and grabbed her jelly. He ran away with it.
+
+"Hey, give it back!" Anna shouted. She chased after Tom. She was very mad.
+
+Tom ran as fast as he could. He did not see a big rock on the ground. He tripped over it and fell down. The jelly flew out of his hand and landed on the dirt. It was ruined.
+
+Anna caught up with him. She saw the jelly on the ground. She felt sorry for Tom. He was hurt and crying. She also felt sorry for herself. She had lost her jelly.
+
+Their moms came to them. They saw what had happened. They were not proud of their children. They scolded them for being greedy and mean.
+
+Tom and Anna learned a lesson. They should have shared and been nice to each other. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They hoped to be better friends next time.
+Lily liked to play with her radio. She liked to turn the knob and hear different sounds. Sometimes she heard music, sometimes she heard people talking, sometimes she heard nothing at all. She wondered what was inside the radio that made the sounds.
+
+One day, she saw a match on the table. She knew that matches could make fire, but she also knew that fire was hot and dangerous. She wanted to see what would happen if she put the match near the radio. She thought maybe the radio would make a new sound, or maybe the match would make a new color.
+
+She took the match and walked to the radio. She did not see her mom in the kitchen. She did not hear her dad in the living room. She was alone with the radio and the match. She scratched the match on the box and it lit up. She felt the heat on her fingers. She brought the match close to the radio.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" a voice said behind her. It was her big brother, Tom. He saw Lily with the match and the radio. He ran to her and grabbed the match from her hand. He blew it out and threw it in the trash. He was angry and scared. "Are you crazy? You could have burned the house down! You could have hurt yourself or the radio! Don't you know that matches and radios don't match?"
+
+Lily started to cry. She did not mean to do anything bad. She just wanted to play and explore. She did not know that matches and radios don't match. She did not know that fire could be so dangerous. She hugged her radio and said sorry. She said sorry to Tom too.
+
+Tom calmed down and hugged Lily back. He said sorry for yelling at her. He said he loved her and he wanted her to be safe. He said he would show her how the radio worked and what was inside. He said they could listen to music or stories together. He said they could find other things that match, like colors or shapes or sounds. He said they could have fun without matches. Lily smiled and nodded. She liked Tom and she liked her radio. She learned a new lesson that day. She learned that matches and radios don't match, but brothers and sisters do.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a pond with many fish. Lily liked the fish. She wanted to touch them. She asked Tom, "Can we go near the pond?"
+
+Tom said, "No, Lily. The pond is deep and wet. We might fall in. We can look at the fish from here."
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to see the fish better. She saw a small fish near the edge of the pond. It was red and shiny. Lily thought it was pretty. She said, "Look, Tom. A small fish. It is so cute. I want to say hello to it."
+
+Tom said, "Be careful, Lily. Don't go too close. The fish might swim away."
+
+Lily did not listen. She walked to the pond. She bent down to touch the small fish. She said, "Hello, fish. I am Lily. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+But the small fish was not a fish. It was a toy. It had a button on its back. When Lily touched it, the toy made a loud noise. It said, "Surprise! I am not a fish. I am a robot. Beep beep boop."
+
+Lily was scared. She jumped back. She screamed, "Aaaah! It is not a fish. It is a robot. It talks. It scares me."
+
+Tom ran to Lily. He hugged her. He said, "Don't worry, Lily. It is just a toy. Someone left it here. It is not real. It cannot hurt you."
+
+Lily calmed down. She looked at the toy. She said, "It is a toy? It is not a fish? It is a robot?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, Lily. It is a toy. It is not a fish. It is a robot. It is a surprise."
+
+Lily said, "It is a surprise. It is a funny surprise. It makes me laugh. Ha ha ha."
+
+Tom said, "It makes me laugh too. Ha ha ha."
+
+They laughed together. They played with the toy. They had fun. They liked the surprise.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big pie on a bench. It smells good. They want to eat it.
+
+But a man comes and says, "That is my pie. I made it for my wife. We are going to marry today. Go away, you bad kids!"
+
+Tom and Sue are sad. They do not want to be bad. They say sorry to the man. They run away from the pie.
+
+They see a big tent. It has flowers and music. They go inside. They see the man and his wife. They are happy. They are going to marry.
+
+Tom and Sue smile. They say, "We are happy for you. Can we watch you marry?"
+
+The man and his wife say, "Yes, you can. You are not bad. You are nice. Come and sit with us."
+
+Tom and Sue sit with them. They watch them marry. They clap and cheer. They eat cake and drink juice. They make new friends.
+
+They forget about the pie. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they were naughty. They did not listen to Mom and Dad. They made a mess and did not clean up. They fought with each other and said mean words.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad had to go out. They asked Grandma to watch Lily and Ben. They told them to be good and do what Grandma said. They said they would bring them a nice meal when they came back. They said they loved them and kissed them goodbye.
+
+Lily and Ben promised to be good. They said they loved Mom and Dad too. But after they left, they forgot their promise. They started to be naughty again. They threw their toys and books around. They spilled their juice and milk. They yelled and cried and hit each other.
+
+Grandma was very sad and angry. She tried to calm them down and make them stop. She told them they were being very naughty and they would not get their nice meal. She said they would have to go to bed early and have no stories. She said they had broken their promise and made Mom and Dad unhappy.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry. They saw how much they had hurt Grandma and Mom and Dad. They said they were sorry and they hugged Grandma. They helped her clean up the mess and put away their toys and books. They said they would be good and keep their promise. They said they loved Grandma and Mom and Dad.
+
+Grandma smiled and hugged them back. She said she forgave them and she loved them too. She said they could still have their nice meal if they behaved. She said they could have one story before bed. She said they had learned their lesson and made her happy.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy too. They waited for Mom and Dad to come back. They hoped they would be proud of them. They thanked Grandma for being kind and patient. They said they would never be naughty again. They promised.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were a king and a queen. They had a big cardboard box that was their castle. They had crowns made of paper and jewels made of stickers.
+
+One day, a big dog came into the garden. He was very friendly, but he was also very clumsy. He ran around and knocked over the flowers and the toys. He saw the cardboard box and thought it was a fun thing to chew. He bit it and tore it apart.
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad. They cried and hugged each other. They had no castle anymore. The dog wagged his tail and licked their faces. He did not know he had done something bad.
+
+The dog's owner came into the garden. He was looking for his dog. He saw the mess and said he was sorry. He said his dog's name was Spot and he was very naughty. He said he would buy them a new cardboard box and some more stickers.
+
+Tom and Lily stopped crying. They liked Spot, even if he was clumsy. They said they would forgive him if he played with them. They asked the dog's owner his name. He said his name was Ben. He said he was new in the town and he had no friends.
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They said they would be his friends. They asked him if he liked to pretend he was a king or a queen. Ben said he did. He said he had a crown at home. He said he would go and get it and come back.
+
+Tom and Lily waited for him. They said they would make a new castle with the new cardboard box. They said they would make it bigger and stronger. They said they would mention Spot in their stories. They said he was the clumsy but kind dog who helped them find a new friend.
+Lily loved horses. She wanted to see them every day. She asked her mom to take her to the stable. Mom said yes, but only if Lily was good.
+
+At the stable, Lily saw many horses. They were big and beautiful. She wanted to touch them and feed them. Mom said she had to be careful and listen to the man who worked there. He knew how to take care of the horses.
+
+The man showed Lily and Mom around. He told them the names of the horses and what they liked to eat. He gave Lily some carrots to feed them. Lily was happy. She fed the horses one by one. They nuzzled her hand and made soft noises.
+
+But there was one horse that was different. He was in a corner of the stable. He looked sad and scared. He had a bandage on his leg. The man said his name was Storm. He said Storm was hurt and needed rest. He said Storm was not friendly and did not like people.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Storm. She wanted to help him. She walked towards him with a carrot. Mom and the man told her to stop. They said Storm might bite or kick her. They said she had to resist the urge to go near him.
+
+But Lily did not listen. She thought Storm was lonely and hungry. She thought she could make him feel better. She reached out her hand with the carrot. Storm saw her and snorted. He moved his head and showed his teeth. He looked angry and troubled.
+
+Lily was scared. She dropped the carrot and ran back to Mom. Mom hugged her and said she was glad she was safe. She said Lily had to obey and not do that again. Lily nodded and said she was sorry. She learned her lesson. She realized that some horses were not ready to be friends. She hoped that Storm would heal and be happy one day.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to run and kick the ball to each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they saw a big gate. The gate was brown and had a lock on it. They wondered what was behind the gate. They wanted to see.
+
+"Let's go and look," Sam said.
+
+"OK," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the gate and tried to open it. But it was too hard. The lock was too big. They could not see anything behind the gate.
+
+They felt confused. They did not know why the gate was there. They did not know what was inside.
+
+They looked at each other and yawned. They were tired from playing. They decided to go back to their ball.
+
+"Maybe we can come back another day and see what is behind the gate," Sam said.
+
+"Maybe," Lily said.
+
+They picked up their ball and walked away from the gate. They did not notice the sign that said "Danger: Do not enter".
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw a hose on the grass. Ben had an idea.
+
+"Let's spray each other with water!" he said.
+
+"OK!" Lily said.
+
+They took turns to hold the hose and press the button. The water came out fast and wet. They screamed and giggled as they got soaked.
+
+But then, something went wrong. The hose got stuck. The water did not stop. It sprayed everywhere. It made a big puddle. It hit the flowers and the fence and the window.
+
+"Stop! Stop!" Ben and Lily shouted. But the hose did not listen.
+
+They tried to pull the hose. They tried to twist the button. They tried to run away. But the hose was too strong. It followed them like a snake. It was enormous.
+
+"Help! Help!" Ben and Lily cried.
+
+Mama heard them. She came out of the house. She saw the mess. She saw the hose. She was not happy.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asked.
+
+"Sorry, Mama. The hose is bad. It won't stop," Ben said.
+
+"Let me see," Mama said.
+
+She took the hose from Ben. She looked at the button. She saw the problem. The button was broken. She fixed it. The water stopped.
+
+"Phew!" Ben and Lily said.
+
+"Thank you, Mama," they said.
+
+"You're welcome. But you have to be careful with the hose. It can be dangerous. And look at the garden. It's all wet and muddy. You have to clean it up," Mama said.
+
+"Yes, Mama. We're sorry, Mama," Ben and Lily said.
+
+They got a bucket and a mop. They started to clean the garden. They learned their lesson. They did not play with the hose again.
+Sara was a polite girl. She always said please and thank you. She helped her mother with chores. She shared her toys with her brother.
+
+One day, Sara and her mother went to the park. Sara saw a big slide. She wanted to try it. She asked her mother, "Can I go on the slide, please?"
+
+Her mother smiled and said, "Yes, you can. But be careful. Hold on tight. And wait for your turn."
+
+Sara nodded and ran to the slide. She waited for the other kids to go first. Then she climbed up the ladder. She sat on the top. She looked down. The slide was very high. She felt scared.
+
+She wanted to go back to her mother. But she did not want to be rude. She did not want to cut in line. She did not want to make the other kids angry.
+
+She took a deep breath. She closed her eyes. She let go. She slid down the slide. She felt the wind in her hair. She felt the sun on her face. She felt a thrill in her tummy.
+
+She opened her eyes. She saw her mother waiting for her. She smiled. She jumped off the slide. She ran to her mother. She hugged her tight.
+
+"Did you have fun?" her mother asked.
+
+"Yes, I did!" Sara said. "Thank you for letting me go on the slide. It was scary, but it was fun."
+
+Her mother hugged her back. She said, "I'm proud of you, Sara. You were brave and polite. You are a good girl."
+
+Sara felt happy. She loved her mother. She loved the park. She loved the slide. She said, "I love you, mother."
+
+"I love you too, Sara," her mother said.
+Ben and Lily 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 liked to chase balls.
+
+One evening, their mom called them to come inside for dinner. "Ben, Lily, Spot, it's time to eat!" she said. But Ben and Lily did not want to stop playing. They wanted to stay outside a little longer.
+
+"Mom, can we play some more?" Ben asked. "Please, please, please?"
+
+"Sorry, sweeties, but it's getting dark and you need to wash up and eat. Maybe you can play more tomorrow," mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily felt sad. They loved their mom, but they also loved playing outside. They looked at each other and had an idea. They decided to delay going inside. They pretended they did not hear their mom and ran to the other side of the yard with Spot.
+
+"Come on, Spot, let's play hide and seek!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, I'll count and you hide!" Ben said.
+
+They hid behind the slide, the swing and the sandbox. They giggled and whispered and hoped their mom would not find them. They thought they were very clever.
+
+But their mom was not happy. She was worried and troubled. She looked for them in the yard and did not see them. She called their names again and again, but they did not answer. She wondered where they were and what they were doing. She felt angry and scared.
+
+She walked around the yard and finally saw them hiding behind the sandbox. She was relieved, but also stern. She walked over to them and said, "Ben, Lily, Spot, what are you doing? Why did you not come when I called you? You know you have to listen to me. You made me very worried and upset. You are in big trouble, young ones."
+
+Ben and Lily felt sorry. They realized they had made a mistake. They did not mean to make their mom worried and upset. They loved their mom and wanted to make her happy. They came out of their hiding place and said, "We're sorry, mom. We just wanted to play some more. We did not mean to delay going inside. We did not mean to make you troubled. Please don't be mad at us."
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "I'm not mad at you, but I'm very disappointed. You have to follow the rules and respect me. Playing is fun, but you also have to do what I say. Now, let's go inside and have dinner. And no dessert for you tonight. Maybe you'll learn your lesson."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. We understand. We'll do better next time. We love you, mom."
+
+They followed their mom inside, with Spot behind them. They washed up and ate their dinner. They did not get any dessert, but they got a kiss and a hug from their mom. They learned their lesson and promised to never delay going inside again. They went to bed and dreamed of playing outside again, but only when their mom said it was OK.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big box in the garage. The box is empty and has many shapes on it. There are circles, squares, triangles and stars.
+
+"Look, Lily, we can make a boat with this box!" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, Tom, let's do it!" Lily says.
+
+They cut out a big circle from the box. They use a stick and a sheet to make a sail. They draw a face on the sail. They put the boat on the floor and sit inside.
+
+"Now we can sail to the island!" Tom says.
+
+"What island, Tom?" Lily asks.
+
+"The island with the candy and the toys!" Tom says.
+
+They pretend to sail on the water. They make sounds like waves and wind. They see animals and plants on the way. They have fun.
+
+"Sailing is easy and fun!" Lily says.
+
+"Yes, Lily, sailing is easy and fun!" Tom says.
+
+They smile and hug. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to swim in the pool. They had many toys to play with in the water, like balls, rings, and ducks. But Tom was spoiled and always wanted to have the toys that Lily had. He would twist them out of her hands and make her cry.
+
+One day, Lily had a new toy that she loved. It was a fish that could swim by itself when you pressed a button. She showed it to Tom and said, "Look, Tom, this is my fish. It can swim like a real fish. Do you want to see?"
+
+Tom nodded and reached for the fish. But Lily pulled it away and said, "No, Tom, this is mine. You have your own toys. You can't have my fish. It is special to me."
+
+Tom got angry and tried to grab the fish from Lily. He twisted it hard and broke the button. The fish stopped swimming and sank to the bottom of the pool. Lily screamed and cried. She was very sad.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the pool. She saw what Tom had done and scolded him. She said, "Tom, that was very naughty of you. You broke Lily's fish. You should say sorry to her and share your toys. You are spoiled and selfish. You need a time out."
+
+She took Tom out of the pool and made him sit on a chair. She gave Lily a hug and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. Your fish was very nice. Maybe we can fix it later. You can play with my fish. It is bigger and can swim too."
+
+She gave Lily a big fish that she had in her bag. It was a gift from her friend. Lily smiled and thanked Mom. She put the fish in the pool and watched it swim. She was happy. She said, "Mom, you are the best. I love you and your fish."
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big tree with many peaches. The peaches were red and yellow and smelled good.
+
+"Let's pick some peaches!" Lily said. She ran to the tree and climbed up. She picked a big peach and bit it. It was sweet and juicy. "Mmm, this is yummy!" she said.
+
+Ben wanted a peach too. He tried to climb the tree, but he was too small. He could not reach the peaches. He felt jealous of Lily. He wanted to have what she had. He said, "Lily, give me a peach! It's not fair that you have one and I don't!"
+
+Lily looked down at Ben. She saw his angry face. She felt sorry for him. She said, "OK, Ben, I will give you a peach. But you have to be nice to me. And you have to say please."
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "Please, Lily, give me a peach. I'm sorry I was mean to you. You are my friend."
+
+Lily smiled. She threw a peach to Ben. He caught it and thanked her. He bit the peach and smiled too. It was sweet and juicy. He said, "This is yummy! Thank you, Lily. You are my friend too."
+
+They ate their peaches and shared their seeds. They played in the park and had fun. They were not jealous anymore. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. Tom has a flute. He can make music with it. Lily likes to listen to Tom's music.
+
+One day, they go to the park. Tom brings his flute. He plays a happy song. Lily claps her hands. She says, "You are good at flute, Tom. I like your music."
+
+But then, a big boy comes. He is mean. He sees Tom's flute. He wants it. He says, "Give me your flute, Tom. It is mine now."
+
+Tom is scared. He says, "No, it is my flute. I got it from my mom. Go away, big boy."
+
+The big boy is angry. He tries to grab Tom's flute. Tom holds it tight. He says, "Help, Lily. Help me."
+
+Lily is brave. She sees a stick. She picks it up. She runs to Tom. She says, "Leave Tom alone, big boy. He is my friend. You are bad."
+
+She hits the big boy with the stick. The big boy cries. He runs away. He says, "Ow, ow, ow. You are mean, Lily. You hurt me."
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They hug each other. They say, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. You saved my flute."
+
+They play with the flute again. They make music. They laugh. They are healthy and happy. They are good friends. The end.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the sand near the sea. They made castles and bridges and tunnels with their buckets and shovels. Sometimes they saw fish and crabs and shells in the water. They were not afraid of the sea, because they believed their dad, who said it was safe and fun.
+
+One day, they saw a big fin sticking out of the water. It was gray and sharp and moved fast. Ben and Lily thought it was a shark. They were scared and ran to their dad, who was reading a book on a towel.
+
+"Dad, dad, there's a shark in the sea!" they shouted.
+
+Their dad looked up and smiled. He put down his book and walked with them to the water. He pointed to the fin and said, "That's not a shark, kids. That's a dolphin. Dolphins are friendly and smart. They like to play and jump and make noises. They are not like sharks, who are mean and hungry and bite."
+
+Ben and Lily looked again and saw that the fin was not alone. There were more fins, and they could see the dolphins' faces and tails. They heard them squeak and whistle. They saw them leap and splash. They realized their dad was right. They felt silly and happy.
+
+"Can we play with the dolphins, dad?" they asked.
+
+Their dad nodded and said, "Sure, but be careful and modest. Don't get too close or bother them. They are wild animals, not pets. They have their own lives and families. Just watch and enjoy them from a distance."
+
+Ben and Lily agreed and thanked their dad. They went back to the sand and watched the dolphins with wonder and joy. They forgot about the shark and their fear. They learned something new and had a great day.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the sun. One day, they find a big puddle near a bush. They want to splash in the puddle.
+
+"Look, Ben, a puddle!" Anna says. "Let's splash in it!"
+
+"OK, Anna, but be careful. It might be deep." Ben says.
+
+They take off their shoes and socks and run to the puddle. They jump and splash and laugh. The water is cold and wet. They make big waves with their feet.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Anna says. "Splash, splash, splash!"
+
+"Splash, splash, splash!" Ben says.
+
+But then, something moves in the bush. It is a frog. It is green and slimy. It jumps out of the bush and lands in the puddle. It makes a loud croak.
+
+"Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit!" the frog says.
+
+Anna and Ben are scared. They scream and run away from the puddle. They put on their shoes and socks and run to their mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, there is a frog in the puddle!" Anna says.
+
+"A frog? Where?" mom says.
+
+"Near the bush. It is green and slimy. It jumped out and croaked." Ben says.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "Don't be afraid. The frog is not bad. It just lives in the bush and likes to splash in the puddle too. Maybe it wanted to play with you."
+
+Anna and Ben look at each other. They think about the frog. They feel sorry for scaring it. They say, "Maybe we can play with the frog next time. But we will be gentle and quiet. And we will say hello to it."
+
+Mom says, "That's a good idea. The frog might be happy to have some friends. But now, let's go inside and have some cookies. You are wet and dirty from the puddle."
+
+Anna and Ben nod and follow mom. They still like to splash in the puddle, but they also like to be kind to the frog. They are good twins.
+Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so happy!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, he is!" Tom agreed. "But he is missing something. He needs mittens to keep his hands warm."
+
+Tom looked around and saw a pair of red mittens on a bench. They belonged to Sam, who was playing with his sled.
+
+"Let's borrow Sam's mittens for our snowman," Tom said. "He won't mind. We will give them back later."
+
+Lily nodded and followed Tom. They took the mittens and put them on the snowman's arms.
+
+"There, now he is perfect!" Tom said.
+
+But Sam saw them and ran over. He was angry.
+
+"Hey, those are my mittens!" he shouted. "Give them back!"
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They did not want to make Sam mad.
+
+"We are sorry, Sam," Lily said. "We just wanted to make our snowman happy. We were going to give them back."
+
+Sam did not listen. He grabbed the mittens and pulled them off the snowman. But he pulled too hard and the snowman's arms fell off.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom and Lily cried. "You broke our snowman!"
+
+Sam felt terrible. He did not mean to break their snowman. He liked snowmen too.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom and Lily," he said. "I was mean. Can we fix your snowman?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They were sad, but they forgave Sam.
+
+They worked together to put the snowman's arms back on. They used sticks and stones to make him fingers.
+
+Sam gave them back the mittens and said, "Here, you can borrow them for your snowman. He looks cold."
+
+Tom and Lily smiled and thanked Sam. They put the mittens on the snowman and gave him a hug.
+
+"Thank you, Sam," they said. "You are a good friend."
+
+They all played in the snow and had fun. The snowman was happy too. He had mittens, a hat, a scarf, a nose, eyes, and three friends.
+Sara and Ben love to paint. They have many colors and brushes and plastic cups with water. They like to paint on paper, on cardboard, on wood, and sometimes on the wall. But they know they have to ask Mom and Dad first.
+
+One day, they decided to paint a big picture of their family. They found a big piece of cardboard and put it on the floor. They took their paints and brushes and started to draw. Sara painted Mom with a red dress and a yellow hat. Ben painted Dad with a blue shirt and a green tie. They both painted themselves with their favorite colors.
+
+They were having so much fun that they did not hear Mom calling them for lunch. Mom came to the living room and saw their painting. She smiled and said, "Wow, what a beautiful picture! You are very good at painting. Who are these people?"
+
+Sara and Ben looked at Mom and said, "This is our family, Mom. This is you, and this is Dad, and this is me, and this is Ben. We love you very much."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I love you too, my sweeties. You made me very happy with your painting. Now, let's go and have some lunch. You must be hungry after all this work."
+
+Sara and Ben put their paints and brushes away and followed Mom to the kitchen. They were very proud of their painting and felt very peaceful. They knew they had the best family in the world.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Lily wants to try it, but Ben is nervous. He thinks the slide is too high and fast.
+
+"Come on, Ben, it will be fun!" Lily says. She holds his hand and smiles. "I will go with you. Don't be scared."
+
+Ben looks at the slide. He sees other kids sliding down and laughing. He wants to be brave like them. He nods at Lily and says, "OK, let's go."
+
+They climb up the stairs and sit on the slide. Lily counts to three and pushes them off. They slide down fast and feel the wind in their hair. They scream and giggle. They land on the soft grass and hug each other.
+
+"That was awesome!" Lily says. "Do you want to go again?"
+
+Ben nods and says, "Yes, please. That was fun. Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I love you."
+
+Lily smiles and says, "I love you too, Ben. You are a good friend. Come on, let's go again."
+
+They run back to the slide and slide down again and again. They have a lot of fun. They forget to be nervous.
+
+After a while, they get thirsty and hungry. They go to the snack stand and buy some juice and cookies. They see a jar of mints on the counter. Lily likes mints. She asks the lady if she can have one.
+
+"Sure, sweetie, you can have one. They are free for good kids like you," the lady says. She gives Lily a mint and smiles.
+
+Lily says, "Thank you, lady. You are nice." She unwraps the mint and puts it in her mouth. She likes the cool and sweet taste. She gives Ben a mint too and says, "Here, Ben, try this. It is yummy."
+
+Ben takes the mint and says, "Thank you, Lily. You are nice too." He unwraps the mint and puts it in his mouth. He likes the cool and sweet taste too. He says, "Mmm, this is yummy. I like mints."
+
+They share their juice and cookies and enjoy their mints. They talk about the slide and how much fun they had. They are happy and full. They say goodbye to the lady and thank her again.

+Tommy wanted to play with the ball on the shelf. But the shelf was too high for him. He tried to jump and reach the ball, but he could not. He felt sad and angry.
+
+He saw his big sister, Lily, reading a book on the sofa. He ran to her and said, "Lily, Lily, help me get the ball! I want to play with it!"
+
+Lily looked at him and said, "No, Tommy, you can't have the ball. It's mine. Go find your own toys."
+
+Tommy did not like that. He said, "But I want it! It's not fair! You have so many toys and I have none!"
+
+Lily said, "That's not true. You have plenty of toys. You just don't share them. You always take mine and break them. You are a bad person."
+
+Tommy felt hurt and angry. He said, "You are a bad person too! You are mean and selfish! I hate you!"
+
+He pushed Lily and tried to grab the book from her. Lily pushed him back and shouted, "Stop it! Go away!"
+
+They started to fight and yell. They did not see their mom coming into the room. She saw them and said, "What are you doing? Why are you fighting? You are making a big mess and a lot of noise!"
+
+She was very angry and anxious. She did not like to see her children fight. She said, "You should be nice to each other. You are brother and sister. You should love and help each other, not hurt and hate each other."
+
+She took the ball and the book from them and said, "You are both in trouble. You have to say sorry to each other and hug. Then you have to clean up this mess and go to your rooms. No more playing for today."
+
+Tommy and Lily felt ashamed and sorry. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They said sorry to their mom and helped her clean up. They went to their rooms and thought about what they did.

+Sara liked to observe bugs in the garden. She saw ants, bees, and butterflies. One day, she saw a large caterpillar on a leaf. It was green and fuzzy, with black and yellow stripes. Sara wanted to touch it and play with it.
+
+She reached out her hand and picked up the caterpillar. It was soft and tickled her fingers. Sara smiled and brought it closer to her face. She wanted to see its eyes and mouth. But the caterpillar did not like being held. It was scared and angry.
+
+The caterpillar opened its mouth and bit Sara's nose. It hurt a lot. Sara screamed and dropped the caterpillar. She ran to her mom, who was watering the flowers. She had blood on her nose and tears in her eyes. Mom hugged her and took her inside. She cleaned her wound and put a band-aid on it.
+
+Sara was sad and sore. She did not like caterpillars anymore. She learned that some bugs are not friendly and should be left alone. She wished she had observed the caterpillar from far away, instead of touching it. She hoped her nose would heal soon.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play golf. Golf was a game where you hit a small ball with a stick and try to make it go into a hole. Lily and Ben had their own sticks and balls and they played in the park.
+
+One day, they saw a chubby boy sitting on a bench. He looked sad and lonely. Lily and Ben decided to talk to him and ask him his name. He said his name was Max and he had no friends to play with. He liked golf too, but he had no stick or ball.

+"Help, help!" Lily and Ben cried. "Go away, bad dog!"
+
+A kind man who was walking by heard their cries and came to help. He had a leash and a collar and he put them on the dog. He said, "Don't worry, kids. This is my dog, Rex. He is not mean, he just wants to play. But he doesn't know how to play nicely with people. I'm sorry he scared you."
+
+Lily and Ben calmed down and looked at the dog. He wagged his tail and licked the man's hand. He did not look so fierce anymore.

+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play with toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big yacht. The yacht was blue and white, and it could float on water. Tim and Kim liked to pretend they were sailors and explore the sea.
+
+One day, they took the yacht to the park, where there was a pond. They put the yacht on the water and watched it sail. They took turns to hold the remote control that made the yacht move. They were having fun, until they saw another boy.
+
+The boy was Ben, and he was curious about the yacht. He came closer and said, "Hello, can I play with you?"
+
+Tim and Kim looked at each other. They did not know Ben, and they did not want to share their yacht. They liked their yacht too much.

+
+Kim shook her head. She said, "No, you can't. This is our yacht, and we don't share."
+
+Ben felt angry. He thought Tim and Kim were mean and selfish. He said, "Fine, then I will take it." He reached for the remote control and tried to grab it from Tim.
+
+Tim and Kim shouted, "No, stop!" They pulled the remote control away from Ben. They did not want to lose their yacht. They started to fight with Ben.
+
+A lady saw them and came over. She was Ben's mom. She said, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Tim and Kim said, "He tried to take our yacht. He is bad."
+
+Ben said, "They did not let me play with their yacht. They are mean."
+
+The lady said, "That is not nice. You should not fight over toys. You should share and be patient. Sharing is caring, and patience is a virtue. Do you know what that means?"
+
+Tim and Kim shook their heads. They did not know what that means.
+
+The lady said, "It means that when you share, you show kindness and generosity. And when you are patient, you show respect and understanding. Sharing and patience make you happy and make others happy too. Do you want to be happy and make others happy?"
+
+Tim and Kim nodded. They wanted to be happy and make others happy.
+
+The lady said, "Then why don't you try to share your yacht with Ben, and let him play for a little bit? And Ben, why don't you try to be patient and wait for your turn? Maybe you can all be friends and have fun together. What do you say?"
+
+Tim and Kim looked at Ben. Ben looked at Tim and Kim. They felt sorry for being rude and mean. They said, "Okay, we will try."
+
+They gave the remote control to Ben and let him play with the yacht. Ben smiled and thanked them. He was careful and gentle with the yacht. He said, "This is a cool yacht. I like it."
+
+Tim and Kim smiled and said, "Thank you. We like it too. Do you want to be sailors with us?"
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Yes, I do. That sounds fun."
+
+They played with the yacht and pretended to be sailors. They shared and were patient. They had fun and made friends. They learned that sharing and patience are good. They were happy and made others happy too.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and hide. Lily saw a big bush with red flowers. She thought it was a good place to hide. She ran to the bush and crawled under it.
+
+But under the bush, there was something else. It was a fox. The fox had red fur and a long tail. It was sleeping under the bush. Lily did not see the fox. She touched the fox by mistake. The fox felt rough and warm.
+
+The fox woke up and saw Lily. Lily saw the fox. They both had a surprise. They both made a loud noise. Lily screamed. The fox barked. They both jumped out of the bush.
+
+Tom heard the noise and ran to the bush. He saw Lily and the fox. He was surprised too. He shouted. The fox was scared. It ran away to the woods.
+
+Lily and Tom hugged each other. They were glad they were safe. They decided not to hide under the bush again. They went to find another place to play.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to see the birds, the flowers, and the trees. They liked to hold hands and run on the grass. They were happy.
+
+One day, they saw a big pond. They wanted to see the fish and the frogs. They walked to the edge of the pond and looked into the water. They saw many things moving and shining.
+
+"Look, Tom, a fish!" Lily said, pointing to a silver shape.
+
+"Look, Lily, a frog!" Tom said, pointing to a green shape.
+
+They leaned closer to the pond. They wanted to touch the fish and the frog. They forgot to hold hands. They were busy.
+
+Suddenly, Lily slipped and fell into the pond. She screamed and splashed. Tom was scared. He tried to help her, but he was too small. He shouted for help, but no one heard him. He cried and cried.
+
+Lily did not come out of the pond. She was gone. Tom was alone. He was sad.
+Anna and Ben like to play pretend. They pretend to be fairies who live in a garden. They wear wings made of paper and crowns made of flowers. They fly around and make magic with their wands.
+
+One day, they find a big flower that is different from the others. It is purple and has many petals. Anna and Ben think it is very pretty. They want to make it their home.
+
+"Let's pretend this is our castle," Anna says. "We can sleep inside and have tea parties."
+
+"OK," Ben says. "But how do we get in? The flower is too high for us."
+
+They look around and see a stick. They think it can help them.
+
+"Let's pretend this is a ladder," Ben says. "We can climb up and reach the flower."
+
+They put the stick against the flower and try to climb. But it is difficult. The stick is slippery and the flower is wobbly. They fall down and hurt themselves.
+
+"Ow!" Anna says. "This is not fun. This is hard."
+
+"Maybe we should pretend something else," Ben says. "Something easier and safer."
+
+They think for a moment and then smile.
+
+"Let's pretend we are lions," Anna says. "We can roar and run and chase each other."
+
+"OK," Ben says. "That sounds fun. And we can still use the flower."
+
+They take off their wings and crowns and put them on the flower. They pretend it is their treasure. They roar and run and chase each other. They have a lot of fun. They forget about the difficult flower and enjoy their pretend game.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toy cars on the floor. They liked to make roads and bridges with their blocks and pretend they were driving to different places. Lily had a red car and Max had a blue car.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a network of roads," Max said, pointing to his blocks. "You can go anywhere you want with your car."
+
+"That's cool, Max," Lily said. "But I like to make ramps and jump with my car. Watch this!" She moved her car to a high block and pushed it hard. The car flew in the air and landed on another block.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that was graceful!" Max said, clapping his hands. "You made your car fly like a bird."
+
+"Thank you, Max," Lily said, smiling. "Do you want to try it too?"
+
+"Yes, please," Max said. He moved his car to the same block as Lily and pushed it. But he pushed it too hard and the car flew out of the network of roads and hit the wall.
+
+"Oops, Max, are you okay?" Lily asked, running to him.
+
+"I'm okay, Lily, but my car is not," Max said, picking up his car. It had a dent and a scratch on it.
+
+"I'm sorry, Max," Lily said. "Maybe we can fix it with some tape."
+
+"Or maybe we can spread some glue on it," Max said.
+
+"Good idea, Max," Lily said. "Let's go find some glue and tape."
+
+They held hands and went to look for glue and tape. They still liked to play with their cars, but they also learned to be careful and help each other.
+Tim and Anna were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big dog. The dog was brown and furry. It had a collar with a name tag. The name tag said Rex.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Tim said. "Let's pet it!"
+
+Anna was scared. She did not like dogs. She did not understand why Tim liked them. She thought they were loud and mean.
+
+"No, Tim, don't!" Anna said. "The dog might bite!"
+
+Tim did not listen. He ran to the dog. He reached out his hand. He wanted to touch the dog's head.
+
+The dog did not like Tim. The dog did not know Tim. The dog thought Tim was a threat. The dog growled and barked. Then the dog bit Tim's hand.
+
+Tim screamed. He felt pain. He saw blood. He ran back to Anna. He cried.
+
+Anna was shocked. She saw Tim's hand. She saw the dog. She felt sorry for Tim. She tried to help him.
+
+"Tim, I'm sorry!" Anna said. "Are you okay?"
+
+Tim was angry. He did not want Anna's help. He did not want her sorry. He blamed her for the bite.
+
+"It's your fault!" Tim said. "You made the dog mad! You are a bad friend!"
+
+Anna was hurt. She did not make the dog mad. She did not want to be a bad friend. She was humble and kind. She did not know what to say.
+
+Tim and Anna did not play in the park anymore. They did not talk to each other anymore. They lost their friendship. They were sad.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They share a room and a bed. Lily likes to sleep with her teddy bear and her blanket. Ben likes to sleep with his dinosaur and his pillow. Sometimes they fight over who gets more space in the bed.
+
+One night, Lily and Ben are getting ready for bed. Lily says, "Ben, you are too bossy. You always tell me what to do. You can't have all the bed. Move over!"
+
+Ben says, "Lily, you are too noisy. You always talk too much. You can't have all the toys. Share with me!"
+
+Lily and Ben start to pull and push each other. They make a lot of noise. They wake up their mom and dad.
+
+Mom and dad come to their room. They are not happy. They say, "Lily and Ben, what are you doing? It is time to sleep. You need to be quiet and nice to each other. Or else you will have no stories and no songs."
+
+Lily and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, mom and dad. We don't want to worry you. We love you. Can we have stories and songs, please?"
+
+Mom and dad smile. They say, "OK, but only if you promise to sleep well and not fight again. Now, hug and kiss each other. And say good night."
+
+Lily and Ben hug and kiss each other. They say good night. They snuggle with their toys and listen to mom and dad's stories and songs. They fall asleep. They have sweet dreams.
+Sara liked to draw with her crayons on paper. She had many colors and shapes to make. She drew a house, a flower, a sun and a cat. She was happy with her paper.
+
+But then, her brother Tom came and took her paper. He said, "This is mine now. You are a bad drawer. I can make it better." He ripped her paper in half and threw it on the floor.
+
+Sara was very sad and angry. She cried and said, "No, Tom, that is not nice. That is my paper. You quit it. You give it back to me." She tried to get her paper, but Tom was bigger and stronger. He pushed her away and laughed.
+
+Sara ran to her mom and told her what Tom did. Mom was not happy with Tom. She said, "Tom, you come here right now. You say sorry to Sara and you fix her paper. You do not take things that are not yours. You do not hurt your sister."
+
+Tom did not want to say sorry or fix the paper. He said, "But mom, her paper is ugly. I do not like it. I do not want to play with her." Mom said, "That does not matter. You have to be kind and flexible. You have to share and respect. You have to learn to play with Sara. She is your sister and she loves you."
+
+Tom realized he was wrong. He felt bad for making Sara cry. He said, "Okay, mom, I am sorry. I will fix her paper. I will play with her." He went to Sara and gave her a hug. He said, "I am sorry, Sara. I was mean to you. I like your paper. It is very pretty. Can I help you draw more?" Sara smiled and said, "Yes, Tom, you can. Thank you for saying sorry. I love you." They took some tape and fixed her paper. They drew more things together. They had fun and were happy. Mom was proud of them.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a doll and Ben had a car. They were having fun until Sara saw an apple on the table.
+
+"Can I have the apple, Mommy?" Sara asked.
+
+"Sure, honey, but you have to share it with Ben, okay?" Mommy said.
+
+Sara nodded and took the apple. She bit a big piece and then gave it to Ben. Ben bit a small piece and then gave it back to Sara. Sara bit another big piece and then gave it to Ben again.
+
+But Ben did not want to bite the apple anymore. He wanted to play with his car. He put the apple on the floor and drove his car around it.
+
+"Ben, you have to finish the apple!" Sara said. "Mommy said we have to share!"
+
+"I don't want the apple!" Ben said. "I want the car!"
+
+Sara got grumpy. She took the car from Ben and threw it on the couch. Ben got grumpy too. He took the apple from the floor and threw it on the table.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Mommy said. "You two are making a mess!"
+
+Sara and Ben looked at Mommy. They saw that she was not happy. They felt sorry for what they did.
+
+"Sorry, Mommy," Sara said.
+
+"Sorry, Mommy," Ben said.
+
+Mommy smiled and hugged them. "It's okay, sweeties. I know you are both hungry and tired. Why don't you finish the apple together and then we can read a story?"
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They picked up the apple and the car and went to the table. They finished the apple and shared the car. They were not grumpy anymore. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and furry. It has a long tail and big ears.
+
+"Can we pet the dog?" Sara asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe we should ask the owner first."
+
+They look around, but they do not see anyone with the dog. The dog is alone. It looks sad and hungry.
+
+"Maybe the dog is lost," Sara says. "Maybe we can help it."
+
+She takes a step towards the dog. The dog wags its tail and barks.
+
+"Hello, dog," Sara says. "What is your name?"
+
+The dog does not answer. It only barks again.
+
+"Maybe it does not understand us," Ben says. "Maybe it speaks a different language."
+
+He tries to make some noises like a dog. He says, "Woof, woof, woof."
+
+The dog tilts its head and looks at Ben. It seems curious.
+
+"See, it likes me," Ben says. "I think it wants to be our friend."
+
+He walks closer to the dog. He reaches out his hand to touch it.
+
+But then, something happens. A loud voice shouts, "Hey, get away from my dog!"
+
+Sara and Ben turn around. They see a big man running towards them. He looks angry and scary.
+
+"Uh-oh," Sara says. "We made a mistake."
+
+They run away from the dog and the man. They are afraid. They do not want to get in trouble.
+
+They run back to their parents, who are waiting for them on a bench.
+
+"What happened?" their parents ask.
+
+"We saw a big dog," Sara says. "We wanted to pet it, but it was not ours."
+
+"It belonged to a big man," Ben says. "He was not happy to see us."
+
+Their parents hug them and tell them they are sorry. They say they should always be careful with strange dogs and people.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They learned their lesson. They are glad they are safe. They decide to play with their own toys instead.
+Lily was a girl who liked to number things. She numbered her toys, her books, her clothes, and even her fingers and toes. She had a big book of numbers that she read every day. She knew how to count to ten, and even to twenty.
+
+One day, she met a new girl in the park. The new girl had long black hair and big brown eyes. She wore a red dress and a yellow hat. She looked mysterious to Lily.
+
+"Hello, I am Lily. What is your name?" Lily asked.
+
+"I am Maya. I like your book. Can I see it?" Maya said.
+
+Lily showed her the book of numbers. Maya smiled and opened it. She pointed to a page with a big number on it.
+
+"Do you know what this is?" Maya asked.
+
+Lily looked at the number. It was very big and had many digits. She had never seen it before.
+
+"I don't know. It is too big. I can't count it," Lily said.
+
+Maya laughed. "It is not too big. It is easy. It is one hundred. You just need to count by tens. Like this: ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, seventy, eighty, ninety, one hundred. See?"
+
+Lily felt confused and sad. She did not like Maya's laugh. She did not like Maya's number. She wanted her book back.
+
+"Give me my book. You are not nice. You are mean. You make fun of me," Lily said.
+
+Maya frowned. "I am not mean. I am trying to help you. You can learn more numbers. You can be smart like me. Don't you want to be smart?"
+
+Lily shook her head. "No, I don't. I like my numbers. I don't need your numbers. Go away. Leave me alone."
+
+She grabbed her book and ran away. She did not want to play with Maya anymore. She did not like mysterious girls. She liked simple numbers.
+Lily was a young girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a doll, a bear, a ball and a watch. The watch was her favorite toy. It was shiny and had a red strap. She liked to put it on her wrist and pretend she was a grown-up.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a boy on the swings. He had a watch too, but his watch was black and had a blue strap. Lily wanted to see his watch. She walked up to him and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. What's your name?"
+
+The boy looked at her and smiled. He said, "Hi, I'm Ben. Do you like my watch?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, it's very nice. Can I see it?"
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "Sure, you can see it. But can I see your watch too?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "OK, let's trade watches for a minute."
+
+They took off their watches and gave them to each other. They looked at the watches and admired them. They felt happy and curious.
+
+But then, they heard a loud voice. It was Lily's mom. She said, "Lily, it's time to go home. Come here, please."
+
+Lily looked at her mom and then at Ben. She said, "Oh, no. I have to go. Here, take your watch back."
+
+She gave Ben his watch and took hers. She said, "Bye, Ben. It was nice to meet you."
+
+Ben said, "Bye, Lily. It was nice to meet you too."
+
+They waved at each other and smiled. They hoped to see each other again. They liked each other's watches and each other's names.
+Lila and Ben were playing with their dad's gear. He had a lot of things that he used for his work, like a helmet, a flashlight, a radio and a rope. They liked to pretend they were explorers or firefighters or astronauts.
+
+"Look, I'm an astronaut!" Ben said, putting the helmet on his head. "I'm going to the moon!"
+
+"No, you're not!" Lila said, grabbing the flashlight. "You need this to see in the dark. Give me the helmet!"
+
+They started to pull and tug on the gear, trying to get it from each other. They did not hear their dad coming into the room.
+
+"Hey, hey, hey!" their dad said, raising his voice. "What are you doing with my gear? This is not a toy! It's fragile and expensive and important for my work. You could break it or hurt yourself. Remove it right now!"
+
+Lila and Ben stopped and looked at their dad. They felt scared and sorry. They quickly took off the gear and gave it back to him.
+
+"We're sorry, dad," they said in a small voice. "We were just playing. We didn't mean to be bad."
+
+Their dad sighed and hugged them. "I know, I know. But you have to be careful with things that are not yours. And you have to ask before you use them. Do you understand?"
+
+They nodded and said yes. Their dad smiled and kissed them.
+
+"OK, then. How about we play something else? Something that is safe and fun and does not involve my gear. How about we build a fort with pillows and blankets?"
+
+Lila and Ben cheered and ran to get the pillows and blankets. They forgot about the gear and had a good time with their dad. They learned to respect his things and to share with each other.
+Anna liked to cook with her mom. She helped her mom make soup and cake and salad. She learned how to cut and stir and pour. She felt happy and proud when she cooked.
+
+One day, Anna wanted to cook by herself. She saw a big vase on the table. It was full of pretty flowers. Anna thought the vase looked like a pot. She wanted to make soup in the vase. She was very creative.
+
+She took the vase to the kitchen. She put water and salt and pepper and carrots and noodles in the vase. She turned on the stove and put the vase on the fire. She waited for the soup to boil.
+
+But the vase was not a pot. It was made of glass. Glass does not like fire. The vase got very hot and cracked. The water and the soup spilled out. The fire got bigger and bigger. The vase broke into pieces.
+
+Anna was scared and sad. She cried and cried. She burned her hand and made a mess. Her mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the fire and the vase and the soup. She was angry and worried. She turned off the stove and put out the fire. She hugged Anna and took her to the doctor. She said Anna was naughty and silly. She said Anna could not cook by herself anymore. Anna felt sorry and ashamed. She wished she had not touched the vase.
+Sara was a little girl who liked to play dress-up. She had a big box of clothes and hats and scarves that she could use to pretend to be different people. One day, she found a long white veil in the box. She put it on her head and said, "Look, I'm a bride!"
+
+She ran to show her brother Tom, who was playing with his cars on the floor. Tom looked up and saw Sara with the veil. He said, "You're not a bride, you're a ghost!" He made a scary face and said, "Boo!"
+
+Sara was not scared. She said, "I'm not a ghost, I'm a bride. And you're my groom. Come, we have to get married." She grabbed Tom's hand and pulled him to the couch, where she had set up some pillows and flowers. She said, "Sit here and say, 'I do.'"
+
+Tom did not want to play bride and groom. He wanted to play with his cars. He said, "No, I don't. I want to play with my cars. And your veil is smelly. It smells like old cheese." He took the veil off Sara's head and threw it on the floor.
+
+Sara was angry. She said, "Hey, that's not nice. That's my veil. Give it back!" She ran to get the veil, but Tom was faster. He picked it up and ran away. Sara chased him around the house, shouting, "Give it back, give it back!"
+
+As they ran, they passed by the kitchen, where their mom was making lunch. She saw them running and said, "What are you two doing? Stop running and come eat. I made you sandwiches and fruit."
+
+Tom and Sara stopped running and looked at each other. They both liked sandwiches and fruit. They said, "Okay, mom." They dropped the veil and went to the kitchen. They sat at the table and ate their lunch. They chewed their sandwiches and said, "Mmm, yummy."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you like it. And I'm glad you stopped fighting. You know, you can play dress-up or cars or anything you want, as long as you share and be nice to each other."
+
+Tom and Sara nodded and said, "We know, mom. We're sorry. We love you." They hugged mom and then hugged each other. They said, "We love you, too." They finished their lunch and then went back to play. They decided to play pirates instead of bride and groom. They used the veil as a flag and said, "Arrr!"
+Lily and Tom were playing with their paper kites in the park. They liked to run and watch their kites fly high in the sky. The wind was strong and made their kites dance and swirl.
+
+"Look, my kite is red and yellow, like a fire!" Lily said.
+
+"Mine is blue and green, like the sea!" Tom said.
+
+They laughed and had fun.
+
+But then, a big gust of wind came and blew Tom's kite away. It flew over the trees and out of sight.
+
+"Oh no, my kite!" Tom cried. He felt sad and angry.
+
+Lily ran to him and hugged him. She said, "Don't cry, Tom. I have an idea. We can share my kite. It is big enough for both of us."
+
+Tom looked at Lily and smiled. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are very kind and wise. You are my best friend."
+
+They took turns holding Lily's kite and running with it. They felt happy and forgot about Tom's lost kite.
+
+The wind was still strong, but it did not bother them anymore. They enjoyed their paper kite and their friendship.
+Tim and Sam were brothers 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 liked to run and bark.
+
+One day, they saw a big jar of jelly on the kitchen table. They loved jelly and wanted to eat some. But their mom said, "No, this jelly is for the party tomorrow. You can have some then. Now go and play."
+
+Tim and Sam were sad. They wanted jelly now. They looked at each other and had a bad idea. They waited until their mom went to the bathroom. Then they ran to the kitchen and grabbed the jar of jelly. They ran outside with it and hid behind the slide.
+
+They opened the jar and started to eat the jelly with their fingers. It was sweet and sticky and yummy. They ate and ate and ate. They did not see Spot coming. Spot smelled the jelly and wanted some too. He jumped on them and licked their faces and hands. He knocked over the jar and spilled the jelly on the ground.
+
+Tim and Sam were scared. They saw the mess they made. They saw their mom coming. They knew they were in trouble. They felt nervous and sorry.
+
+Their mom saw them and the jelly. She was angry and sad. She said, "What did you do? You were naughty and greedy. You wasted the jelly and made a mess. You did not listen to me. You have to clean up and go to your room. No jelly for you tomorrow."
+
+Tim and Sam cried. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We were wrong. We should have waited. We should have obeyed. We learned our lesson. Please forgive us."
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "I forgive you, but you still have to face the consequences. You have to clean up and go to your room. Maybe next time you will think before you act. Now go and rest. You ate too much jelly. You might have a tummy ache."
+
+Tim and Sam nodded. They cleaned up and went to their room. They felt sick and sad. They wished they had not eaten the jelly. They learned that being patient and respectful is better than being selfish and sneaky. They hoped their mom would still love them. They hugged each other and rested.
+Tommy was a big boy who liked to play with his cars and trucks. He had many toys, but his favorite was a red fire truck that made a loud siren sound. He always took it with him when he went to the park or to his grandma's house.
+
+One day, Tommy's mom said they had to go to the doctor for a check-up. Tommy did not like the doctor. He was afraid of the needles and the cold stethoscope. He did not want to leave his fire truck at home. He begged his mom to let him bring it with him.
+
+"Please, mom, please. I need my fire truck. It makes me feel brave," Tommy said.
+
+"Okay, Tommy, you can bring your fire truck, but you have to hold it tight and not lose it. The doctor is very nice and he will not hurt you. He just wants to make sure you are healthy and strong," his mom said.
+
+Tommy nodded and hugged his fire truck. He felt a little better. He and his mom got in the car and drove to the doctor's office.
+
+When they got there, Tommy saw many other kids waiting in the lobby. Some of them were crying, some of them were laughing, some of them were reading books or playing with toys. Tommy clutched his fire truck and followed his mom to the receptionist.
+
+"Hello, we have an appointment for Tommy Smith," his mom said.
+
+"Hello, welcome. Please take a seat and we will call you soon," the receptionist said.
+
+Tommy and his mom sat down on a couch. Tommy looked around and saw a big fish tank with colorful fish swimming inside. He liked the fish. They looked peaceful and happy. He wondered if they ever got sick or had to go to the doctor.
+
+He was so busy watching the fish that he did not notice a little girl sitting next to him. She had curly hair and a pink dress. She also had a big teddy bear in her arms. She smiled at Tommy and reached for his fire truck.
+
+"Can I play with your fire truck?" she asked.
+
+Tommy was startled. He did not want to share his fire truck. It was his and it made him feel brave. He pulled it away from the girl and said, "No, it's mine. Go away."
+
+The girl frowned and started to cry. She hugged her teddy bear and said, "You are mean. I just wanted to play with you."
+
+Tommy felt bad. He did not mean to make the girl cry. He liked to play with other kids, but he was scared of the doctor and he did not want to lose his fire truck. He did not know what to say.
+
+Before he could say anything, his mom said, "Tommy, it's your turn. The doctor is ready to see you. Come on, let's go."
+
+Tommy got up and followed his mom. He looked back at the girl and saw her still crying. He felt a pang in his stomach. He wished he had been nicer to her. He wished he had said sorry. He wished he had let her play with his fire truck.
+
+He wondered if the doctor would make him cry too. He wondered if he would ever see the girl again. He wondered if she would ever forgive him. He wondered if he would ever feel peaceful and happy like the fish.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big slide and ran to it. Lily went first and slid down fast. She laughed and clapped her hands. Tom followed her and slid down too. He smiled and said, "That was fun!"
+
+They saw a man with a cart. He had many things in it. He had balloons, toys, and chocolate. Lily and Tom liked chocolate. They went to the man and asked, "Can we have some chocolate, please?"
+
+The man looked at them and frowned. He said, "No, you can't. You are filthy. You have dirt on your faces and clothes. You need to wash before you eat chocolate. Go away!"
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and angry. They did not think they were filthy. They thought they were just having fun. They did not want to wash. They wanted chocolate. They looked at each other and had an idea.
+
+They waited until the man was busy with another customer. Then they sneaked to his cart and grabbed some chocolate. They ran away as fast as they could. They did not care if the man saw them or shouted at them. They were happy.
+
+They found a bench and sat down. They opened the chocolate and gave some to each other. They ate it and licked their fingers. It was sweet and yummy. They said, "This is the best chocolate ever!" They hugged and giggled. They did not mind being filthy. They were friends.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But today, they are bored. They have nothing new to do.
+
+"Let's go outside and find something fun," Sara says to Ben.
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. Mom and Dad are at work. They told us not to go far," Ben says.
+
+They put on their shoes and coats and go out the door. They see a big hill near their house. They wonder what is on the other side.
+
+"Let's go up the hill and see," Sara says.
+
+They start to climb the hill. It is hard work. They get tired and thirsty. They wish they had brought some water and snacks.
+
+They reach the top of the hill. They see a big lake with ducks and fish. They also see a small boat with oars.
+
+"Wow, look at that! Let's go on the boat and have an adventure," Sara says.
+
+She runs to the boat and jumps in. Ben follows her. They grab the oars and start to row.
+
+They have fun on the boat. They see the ducks and fish. They pretend they are pirates and explorers. They forget about their mom and dad and their home.
+
+But then, the wind starts to blow. The water gets rough. The boat rocks and shakes. Sara and Ben are scared.
+
+"Help! Help! We want to go back!" they cry.
+
+They try to row back to the shore, but they can't. The wind is too strong. They are in trouble.
+
+They see a man on the shore. He has a big hat and a long coat. He hears their cries and sees their boat.
+
+He runs to the lake and gets another boat. He rows to Sara and Ben and helps them get in his boat. He rows them back to the shore.
+
+He is angry and worried. He asks them who they are and where they live. He tells them they are very naughty and foolish. He tells them they could have drowned or got lost.
+
+He takes them to their house and knocks on the door. Their mom and dad are home. They are surprised and relieved to see them. They hug them and thank the man.
+
+They also scold them and punish them. They tell them they are not allowed to go outside without permission. They tell them they have to stay in their room and do their homework.
+
+Sara and Ben are sorry and sad. They wish they had not gone on the boat. They wish they had listened to their mom and dad. They learn their lesson. They never go on the boat again.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They share a bedroom. Lily likes to play with dolls. Ben likes to play with cars. Sometimes they play together, but sometimes they fight.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben have a big fight. Lily wants to play with Ben's cars, but Ben says no. Ben wants to play with Lily's dolls, but Lily says no. They yell and scream at each other.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to their bedroom. She is very angry. She says, "Stop fighting, or you will both go to time out!" But Lily and Ben do not hear her. They are too loud.
+
+Mom tries again. She says, "Lily, Ben, can you hear me?" But Lily and Ben do not answer. They are too busy fighting.
+
+Mom thinks they are deaf. She is very worried. She says, "Oh no, what is wrong with my babies?" She runs to their bedroom and grabs them. She hugs them and says, "Are you deaf? Can you hear me?"
+
+Lily and Ben are surprised. They stop fighting and look at Mom. They say, "Yes, Mom, we can hear you. Why are you so scared?"
+
+Mom is relieved. She says, "I thought you were deaf, because you did not hear me when I called you. You were making too much noise. You need to be quiet and share your toys. Fighting is not nice."
+
+Lily and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We love you. We will be quiet and share our toys."
+
+Mom smiles and says, "I love you too. Now, let's clean up your bedroom and find a game that you both like. How about a puzzle? It will fit on the floor."
+
+Lily and Ben agree. They say, "Yes, Mom, a puzzle sounds fun. Thank you, Mom."
+
+They hug Mom and help her clean up their bedroom. Then they play with the puzzle. They are happy and quiet. Mom is happy too. She is glad they are not deaf. She is proud of her twins.
+One day, a yellow cow named Sunny went to the farm with her friends. She liked to eat grass and drink water from the pond. She also liked to moo and play with the other cows.
+
+But Sunny was not happy today. She saw a big fence that part the farm in two. She could not go to the other side, where her best friend, a brown cow named Coco, was. She missed Coco very much.
+
+She went to the fence and mooed. "Coco, Coco, where are you?" she called.
+
+She heard a moo back. "Sunny, Sunny, I am here!" Coco answered. She was on the other side of the fence. She ran to the fence and tried to touch Sunny with her nose.
+
+"Why is there a fence?" Sunny asked. "I want to be with you."
+
+"I don't know," Coco said. "The farmer put it up. He said it was for our good. But I don't like it. I want to be with you too."
+
+They both felt sad. They wished the fence would go away.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was the farmer. He came to the fence and saw the two cows. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, my cows. The fence is only for a little while. I am making a new barn for you. It will be big and warm and cozy. You will all be together soon. You are my good cows. I love you."
+
+Sunny and Coco felt a little better. They trusted the farmer. They hoped he was right. They licked each other through the fence and said, "We love you too, farmer. And we love each other. We will wait for the new barn."
+
+They stayed by the fence until the sun went down. Then they went to sleep, dreaming of the new barn and their reunion.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. They see a big tree with many leaves. They want to climb the tree and see the birds.
+
+They go to the tree and find a branch. Lila goes first. She holds the branch and pulls herself up. She sees a bird nest with three eggs. She smiles and says, "Look, Ben, eggs!"
+
+Ben follows her. He holds the branch and tries to pull himself up. But he is lazy and does not try hard. He feels something move on the branch. He looks and sees a snake. He screams and drops the branch. He falls to the ground.
+
+Lila hears Ben scream and looks down. She sees Ben on the ground and the snake on the branch. She is scared and drops the branch too. She falls next to Ben.
+
+The snake hisses and slithers away. It does not like the noise. Lila and Ben hug each other and cry. They are hurt and scared.
+
+A lady hears them cry and comes to help. She sees their scratches and bruises. She says, "Oh, you poor children, what happened?"
+
+Lila and Ben tell her about the tree, the eggs, and the snake. The lady says, "That was a bad snake. You should not climb trees without an adult. Come, I will take you to the nurse."
+
+She takes them by the hand and leads them to the nurse. The nurse cleans their wounds and gives them band-aids and stickers. She says, "You are brave children, but you should be careful. Snakes can be dangerous. Next time, play on the swings or the slide."
+
+Lila and Ben nod and say, "Thank you, nurse." They feel better and go back to the park. They do not climb the tree again. They play on the swings and the slide. They have fun and forget about the snake.
+Anna was a daughter who loved to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had long hair, a pink dress and a smile on her face. Anna liked to brush Lily's hair, dress her up and talk to her.
+
+One day, Anna was playing with Lily in the garden. She saw a big butterfly and wanted to show it to Lily. She ran after the butterfly, holding Lily in her hand. But she tripped on a rock and fell down. Lily flew out of her hand and landed on the ground. Anna heard a crack and saw that Lily's arm was broken.
+
+Anna cried and picked up Lily. She hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to hurt you. You are my best friend. Please don't be sad." She ran to her mom and showed her Lily's broken arm. Her mom looked at Lily and said, "Oh, Anna, I'm sorry. Lily is broken. We can't fix her. She is too old and fragile."
+
+Anna felt very sad. She didn't want to lose Lily. She said, "But mom, Lily is not old. She is my doll. She is alive. She can talk to me. She can feel pain. Can't we do something for her?" Her mom shook her head and said, "No, Anna, we can't. Lily is just a toy. She is not alive. She can't talk or feel. She is only in your imagination."
+
+Anna didn't believe her mom. She said, "No, mom, you are wrong. Lily is alive. She is my friend. She loves me and I love her. She can hear me and I can hear her. She is not just a toy. She is real." She held Lily close to her chest and said, "Lily, please don't leave me. Please stay with me. I need you. You are my best friend."
+
+Anna closed her eyes and prayed. She prayed to God, who she learned about in church. She prayed to God to help Lily. She prayed to God to make Lily's arm better. She prayed to God to keep Lily alive. She prayed to God with all her heart.
+
+She opened her eyes and looked at Lily. She saw that Lily's arm was still broken. She saw that Lily's smile was still on her face. She saw that Lily's eyes were still closed. She felt a warm feeling in her heart. She heard a soft voice in her ear. The voice said, "I love you, Anna. I'm always with you. I'm always your friend. Don't be sad. Be happy. Thank you for praying for me."
+
+Anna smiled and said, "I love you, Lily. You are always with me. You are always my friend. I'm not sad. I'm happy. You are welcome for praying for you." She kissed Lily and said, "You are my best friend. You are my doll. You are alive."
+Tim and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks. Tim and Lily liked to watch the ducks swim and quack. They wanted to feed them some bread.
+
+"Can we feed the ducks, Mom?" Tim asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. Don't go too close to the water or the ducks might bite you," Mom said.
+
+She gave them some bread and they walked to the edge of the pond. Tim threw some bread to the ducks and they came closer. Lily was fearful of the ducks. She thought they looked big and scary.
+
+"Tim, I don't want to feed the ducks. They are too loud and mean," Lily said.
+
+"They are not mean, Lily. They are just hungry. Look, they are eating the bread and they are happy," Tim said.
+
+He tried to give Lily some bread, but she shook her head. She hid behind Mom and watched Tim feed the ducks.
+
+One duck was very greedy. It wanted all the bread for itself. It chased away the other ducks and tried to grab the bread from Tim's hand. Tim was surprised and scared. He dropped the bread and ran back to Mom and Lily.
+
+"Mom, Mom, the duck was mean to me. It tried to bite me," Tim said.
+
+Mom hugged Tim and Lily and said, "It's okay, Tim. The duck was just too hungry and rude. It didn't mean to hurt you. You did a good job feeding the ducks. Let's go and play on the swings now."
+
+Tim and Lily nodded and followed Mom to the swings. They forgot about the mean duck and had fun on the swings. They still liked to watch the ducks, but from a safe distance.
+Tom and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They could build towers, bridges, cars and animals with their blocks.
+
+One day, Tom saw a new block in Sam's box. It was shiny and had stars on it. Tom wanted to have it. He thought Sam would not notice. He took the block and hid it in his pocket. He said goodbye to Sam and went home.
+
+At home, Tom played with the block. He liked how it sparkled. But he also felt guilty. He knew he did something bad. He knew Sam would miss his block. He knew he should return it. He decided to go back to Sam's house and say sorry.
+
+He ran to Sam's house with the block in his hand. He knocked on the door. Sam opened it. He looked sad. He said, "Tom, have you seen my star block? It was my favorite. I can't find it anywhere."
+
+Tom felt very guilty. He showed Sam the block and said, "I'm sorry, Sam. I took your block. I wanted to have it. But I know it was wrong. Here, take it back. Please forgive me."
+
+Sam was surprised and happy. He took the block and hugged Tom. He said, "Thank you, Tom. I'm glad you returned it. I forgive you. You are still my best friend. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Tom nodded and smiled. He said, "Yes, Sam. I want to play with you. And I will never take your things again. I'm sorry."
+
+They went inside and played with their blocks. They shared and helped each other. They had fun and forgot their trouble. They were best friends.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. They saw a big tree with many branches and leaves. Tom wanted to climb the tree and see the sky. Lily wanted to climb the tree and see the birds. They ran to the tree and tried to climb.
+
+"Look, I can climb higher than you!" Tom said. He reached a branch that was very high and looked at the sky. He saw the sun and the clouds and felt happy.
+
+"No, I can climb higher than you!" Lily said. She reached a branch that was very high and looked at the birds. She saw a robin and a sparrow and felt happy.
+
+But then they heard a growl from below. They looked down and saw a big dog. The dog was hungry and smelled beef. Tom and Lily had beef sandwiches in their backpacks. The dog wanted to eat the beef. He barked and jumped and tried to reach the backpacks.
+
+"Help, help!" Tom and Lily shouted. They were scared of the dog. They did not want to lose their beef sandwiches. They did not know how to get down from the tree.
+
+A man heard their shouts and came to the park. He saw the dog and the twins. He was the owner of the dog. He called the dog and gave him a bone. The dog stopped barking and jumped and ran to the bone. He ate the bone and felt happy.
+
+"Are you okay?" the man asked Tom and Lily. He helped them get down from the tree. He was sorry that his dog scared them. He gave them a hug and a cookie.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" Tom and Lily said. They were glad that the man was nice. They ate their beef sandwiches and their cookies. They felt happy.
+
+They looked at the dog and the bone. They were not envious of the dog. They liked their beef sandwiches and their cookies more. They smiled and waved at the man and the dog. They went to play in the park again.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big dog with a red collar. The dog is friendly and wags its tail.
+
+"Can we pet the dog, mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, but be gentle and alert," mom says. "Some dogs don't like strangers."
+
+Ben and Lily go near the dog and stroke its fur. The dog licks their hands and makes happy noises. Ben and Lily giggle.
+
+"I like this dog," Lily says. "Can we have it?"
+
+"No, sweetie, this dog has a home and a family," mom says. "See, it has a tag with a name and a phone number. Its name is Rex."
+
+Ben and Lily look at the tag. They see the name Rex and a picture of a bone.
+
+"Rex is a good name for a dog," Ben says.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud bark. Another dog, a black and white one, runs towards them. It looks angry and mean. It bares its teeth and growls.
+
+"Uh-oh, trouble," dad says. He picks up Ben and Lily and moves away from the dog. Mom holds Rex by the collar and tries to calm him down.
+
+The black and white dog jumps at Rex and bites his lip. Rex yelps and snaps back. The two dogs start to fight.
+
+"Stop, stop!" mom shouts. She pulls Rex away from the other dog. Rex has blood on his lip. He whines and licks his wound.
+
+"Are you okay, Rex?" Lily asks. She pets his head and gives him a hug.
+
+"Rex is hurt," Ben says. He looks sad and angry. He points at the other dog. "Bad dog! Go away!"
+
+The other dog runs away, chased by a man with a leash. The man apologizes and says he lost control of his dog. He says he is sorry for what happened to Rex.
+
+Mom calls the phone number on Rex's tag. She tells the owner what happened and asks if they can take Rex to the vet. The owner says yes and thanks them for their help. He says he will meet them at the vet.
+
+Ben and Lily go with mom and dad to the vet. They hold Rex's paw and tell him he is brave and strong. The vet cleans Rex's lip and gives him a bandage and a treat. He says Rex will be fine and he can go home soon.
+
+Ben and Lily say goodbye to Rex and his owner. They tell him they are glad he is okay and they hope to see him again. Rex wags his tail and licks their faces.
+
+"Thank you for saving my dog," the owner says. He gives Ben and Lily a toy bone each. "These are for you. You are good friends to Rex."
+
+Ben and Lily smile and thank him. They hold their toy bones and wave at Rex. They are happy they helped Rex and they have a new friend.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big statue of a man on a horse. The statue was very old and had a funny hat.
+
+"Who is that?" Lily asked Tom.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he was a king or a hero," Tom said.
+
+They went closer to the statue. They wanted to touch it and see how it felt. But the statue was very high and they could not reach it.
+
+Tom had an idea. He saw a big rock near the statue. He climbed on the rock and tried to stand on it. But the rock was not steady and Tom stumbled. He fell off the rock and hurt his knee.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Tom cried.
+
+Lily ran to him and hugged him. She saw blood on his knee and felt scared.
+
+"Are you okay, Tom?" Lily asked.
+
+"It hurts, Lily. It hurts a lot," Tom said.
+
+Lily looked around and saw a lady with a dog. The lady was nice and had a smile. She saw Tom and Lily and came to help.
+
+"Hello, children. What happened?" the lady asked.
+
+"Tom fell off the rock and hurt his knee," Lily said.
+
+"Oh, poor Tom. Let me see your knee. I have a band-aid in my bag," the lady said.
+
+She took out a band-aid and put it on Tom's knee. She was gentle and kind. Tom felt better and stopped crying.
+
+"Thank you, lady. You are very nice," Tom said.
+
+"You're welcome, Tom. I'm glad you're okay. You know, this statue is very unique. It is of a famous explorer who traveled around the world. He had many adventures and discoveries. He was brave and curious, just like you," the lady said.
+
+"Really? Wow! That's cool. What was his name?" Tom asked.
+
+"His name was Marco Polo. Do you want to hear more about him?" the lady asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+The lady smiled and told them stories about Marco Polo and his journeys. Tom and Lily listened and learned. They forgot about the pain and the rock. They were happy and interested. They liked the statue and the lady and the dog. They had a unique day in the park.
+Mia and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a big hole in the ground. Mia says, "What is this hole?"
+
+Ben says, "Maybe it is a mole hole. Moles are animals that live under the ground. They dig holes with their noses."
+
+Mia says, "Can we see a mole? I want to see a mole."
+
+Ben says, "OK, let's wait and see. Maybe a mole will come out of the hole."
+
+They sit down and watch the hole. They wait and wait. But no mole comes out.
+
+Then they hear a loud noise. It is a big truck. The truck is coming to the garden. The truck is bad. It is going to make the garden flat.
+
+Mia and Ben are scared. They run to the house. They shout, "Mom, Dad, help! A bad truck is coming to the garden!"
+
+Mom and Dad hear them. They come out of the house. They see the truck. They are angry. They say, "Stop, stop, stop! You can't make our garden flat! You have to go away!"
+
+The truck driver sees them. He says, "Sorry, sorry, sorry! I made a mistake. I have the wrong address. I have to go to another garden. I will go away now."
+
+He turns the truck around. He drives away. He leaves the garden alone.
+
+Mia and Ben are happy. They hug Mom and Dad. They say, "Thank you, thank you, thank you! You saved our garden!"
+
+Mom and Dad say, "You're welcome, you're welcome, you're welcome! We love our garden. And we love you."
+
+They go back to the garden. They see the hole. They wonder, "Where is the mole?"
+
+They hear a small noise. It is a mole. The mole comes out of the hole. It looks at them. It says, "Hello, hello, hello! I am a mole. I live under the ground. I dig holes with my nose."
+
+Mia and Ben are surprised. They say, "Hello, hello, hello! We are Mia and Ben. We live in the house. We play in the garden."
+
+The mole says, "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you, nice to meet you! You have a nice garden. Can I be your friend?"
+
+Mia and Ben say, "Yes, yes, yes! You can be our friend. We like moles. You are not bad. You are good."
+
+The mole says, "Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are not bad. You are good. You are my friends."
+
+They smile and laugh. They play together. They have fun. They are happy. They close the hole. They say, "Bye, bye, bye!"
+
+The end.
+Tim was a boy who liked to show off. He had many toys and he always told his friends how much they cost. He did not care if his friends had less toys or no toys at all. He wanted to make them feel bad and jealous. He did not know the value of being kind and sharing.
+
+One day, he brought his new bike to the park. It was shiny and fast and had many buttons. He rode it around and laughed at his friends who had old bikes or no bikes. He said his bike was the best and he was the best. He did not see the big rock on the path. He hit the rock and fell off his bike. His bike broke into pieces and he hurt his knee. He cried and cried.
+
+His friends came to see what happened. They did not laugh at him or make fun of him. They felt sorry for him and tried to help him. They gave him a band-aid for his knee and a hug for his pain. They told him they were his friends and they did not care about his bike. They cared about him.
+
+Tim felt very embarrassed. He realized he had been mean and rude to his friends. He wished he had been nice and humble. He wished he had shared his toys and played with them. He said he was sorry and asked for their forgiveness. His friends forgave him and said they were still his friends. But Tim still felt sad. He had lost his bike and he had learned a hard lesson. He hoped he could be a better friend from now on.
+Lila was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had long hair, a pretty dress, and a smile on her mouth. Lila took Anna everywhere with her.
+
+One day, Lila and Anna went to the park with Mommy. They played on the swings, the slide, and the sandbox. Lila was having so much fun, she forgot to hold Anna tight. When she got off the slide, she saw that Anna was gone. She looked around, but she could not find her. She felt sad and scared. She ran to Mommy and cried.
+
+Mommy hugged Lila and said, "Don't worry, sweetie. We will find Anna. Maybe someone saw her and took her to a safe place. Let's ask the people in the park." Mommy and Lila walked around the park and asked everyone if they had seen Anna. But no one had.
+
+Lila felt weak and hopeless. She thought she would never see Anna again. She wished she could restore Anna to her arms. She sobbed and said, "I miss Anna. I want Anna. Please, Mommy, find Anna."
+
+Mommy said, "I know, honey. I miss Anna too. She is a very special doll. But we have to keep looking. Maybe she is hiding somewhere. Let's check the trash cans. Sometimes people throw away things they don't want, but we do."
+
+Mommy and Lila went to the trash cans and looked inside. They saw many things, like cans, bottles, papers, and banana peels. But they did not see Anna. Lila felt more sad and more scared. She said, "Anna is not here. Anna is lost. Anna is gone."
+
+Mommy said, "Don't give up, sweetie. There is one more trash can. Maybe Anna is there. Let's go and see." Mommy and Lila walked to the last trash can and peeked inside. Lila gasped and smiled. She saw Anna! Anna was lying on top of a pile of old clothes, with her hair, dress, and mouth still clean and bright. Lila reached in and grabbed Anna. She hugged her and said, "Anna! Anna! I found you! I love you! You are my best friend!"
+
+Anna smiled back at Lila and said, "I love you too, Lila. You are my best friend. I'm sorry I got lost. I was scared and lonely. But you found me. You restored me to you. Thank you, Lila. Thank you, Mommy."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "You're welcome, Lila. You're welcome, Anna. I'm so happy you are together again. You are both very brave and very lucky. Now let's go home and have some cookies and milk. How does that sound?"
+
+Lila and Anna said, "That sounds great, Mommy. Thank you, Mommy. We love you, Mommy." They held each other tight and walked with Mommy to the car. They were happy and grateful. They had restored their friendship and their joy.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be different animals. Lily had a soft octopus that she liked to hug and squeeze. Ben had a toy car that he liked to zoom and crash.
+
+"Look at my octopus!" Lily said. "She is big and purple and has eight legs. She can swim in the water and squirt ink."
+
+"Look at my car!" Ben said. "It is red and shiny and has four wheels. It can go fast and make loud sounds."
+
+They showed each other their toys and tried to make them play together. But the octopus and the car did not get along. The octopus wrapped her legs around the car and tried to pull it into her mouth. The car honked and beeped and tried to escape.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Ben said. "You are hurting my car!"
+
+"Hey, let go!" Lily said. "You are scaring my octopus!"
+
+They pulled and tugged on their toys, but they could not get them apart. They started to cry and yell.
+
+"Mommy, help!" they both said.
+
+Mommy heard the noise and came into the living room. She saw the mess and the tears and the toys. She sighed and smiled.
+
+"What is going on here?" she asked.
+
+"Lily's octopus is eating my car!" Ben said.
+
+"Ben's car is hurting my octopus!" Lily said.
+
+Mommy picked up the toys and gently separated them. She looked at them and saw a button on each one. She pressed the buttons and something amazing happened. The octopus and the car started to shrink. They became smaller and smaller until they fit in Mommy's hand.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Mommy said. "These are magic toys. They can shrink and grow. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lily and Ben stopped crying and looked at the tiny toys. They nodded and smiled.
+
+"Yes, please!" they both said.
+
+Mommy gave them back their toys and showed them how to use the buttons. They pressed them and watched the octopus and the car grow and shrink. They laughed and clapped and played with them. They made them friends and had new adventures. They forgot about their fight and had fun. They were not noisy anymore. They were happy.
+Timmy was a boy who liked to imagine. He imagined he had a large house, a luxury car, and many toys. He imagined he was the boss of everyone and could do whatever he wanted. He did not like to share, help, or say sorry.
+
+One day, he went to the park with his mom. He saw a girl playing with a ball. He wanted the ball, so he ran to the girl and snatched it from her. The girl cried and asked for her ball back, but Timmy said no. He said it was his ball now and he did not care about her feelings.
+
+His mom saw what he did and was very angry. She took the ball from him and gave it back to the girl. She said to Timmy, "You are very rude and selfish. You cannot imagine that everything is yours and that you can hurt others. You need to learn to be kind and generous. Imagine how you would feel if someone took your things and made you cry. How would you like that?"
+
+Timmy felt ashamed and sorry. He realized he was wrong and he had hurt the girl. He went to the girl and said, "I am sorry. I was mean to you. Can I play with you and your ball?" The girl smiled and said, "Yes, you can. Thank you for saying sorry. I forgive you."
+
+Timmy learned a lesson that day. He learned that imagining is fun, but not when it makes him greedy and cruel. He learned that sharing, helping, and saying sorry are better than having a large house, a luxury car, and many toys. He learned that being kind and generous makes him and others happy.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a secret spot under a big tree, where they hid their toys and snacks. They trusted each other and shared everything.
+
+One day, a mean boy came to the park. He saw Lily and Ben's secret spot and wanted to take their things. He waited until they were busy on the swings and ran to the tree. He grabbed their toys and snacks and ran away.
+
+Lily and Ben saw him and chased him. They shouted, "Stop! Give us back our things!" But the mean boy was faster and ran to the other side of the park. He saw a fence with a small hole. He thought he could pass through it and escape.
+
+But he was wrong. The hole was too small for him. He got stuck in the fence. He tried to pull himself out, but he couldn't. He felt helpless. He started to cry.
+
+Lily and Ben caught up with him. They saw him in the fence and felt sorry for him. They decided to help him. They pushed him gently from behind until he was free. They gave him some of their snacks and said, "Don't be mean. Be nice. We can be friends."
+
+The mean boy felt ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong. Thank you for helping me. Can we be friends?" Lily and Ben nodded and smiled. They invited him to play with them. They became friends and trusted each other. They learned that being nice is better than being mean.
+Tom and Lily were on a big boat with their mom and dad. They liked to look at the water and the fish and the birds. One day, the boat stopped at a port. The port had many other boats and people and things to see.
+
+"Can we go out and explore?" Tom asked his mom.
+
+"Yes, but stay close to us and be careful," his mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily followed their mom and dad off the boat. They saw a man with a cart full of fruit. He smiled and said, "Hello, little ones. Do you want to try some of my fruit? I have apples, bananas, oranges, and more. I offer them for a good price."
+
+Tom and Lily liked fruit. They looked at their mom and dad. Their mom nodded and gave them some money. They each picked a fruit and thanked the man.
+
+They walked some more and saw a woman with a basket full of toys. She had dolls, cars, balls, and more. She said, "Hello, little ones. Do you want to play with some of my toys? I offer them for a small trade. You can give me something you have and I will give you something you like."
+
+Tom and Lily liked toys. They looked at their mom and dad. Their dad shook his head and said, "No, thank you. We have enough toys. Come on, let's go."
+
+They walked some more and saw a boy with a dog. The dog was big and black and had sharp teeth. He barked and growled at Tom and Lily. The boy said, "Hello, little ones. Do you want to pet my dog? He is very friendly and likes to play. I offer him for a hug."
+
+Tom and Lily were fearful of the dog. They hid behind their mom and dad. Their mom said, "No, thank you. We are allergic to dogs. Come on, let's go."
+
+They walked back to the boat. They were happy to be safe and away from the dog. They ate their fruit and played with their toys. They said, "We like the port, but we like the boat more."
+Tom and Lily like to play outside. They have many stuff to play with. They have a ball, a bike, a doll and a car. They like to run, jump, ride and pretend.
+
+One day, it starts to rain. The rain is wet and cold. It makes the ground muddy and slippery. Tom and Lily do not like the rain. They cannot play outside with their stuff. They feel sad and bored.
+
+Mom sees Tom and Lily. She says, "Do not be sad. You can play inside. There are many stuff available for you. You can draw, read, sing and build. You can have fun inside too."
+
+Tom and Lily listen to Mom. They go inside. They find many stuff available for them. They have paper, crayons, books, songs and blocks. They start to draw, read, sing and build. They have fun inside too.
+
+The rain stops. The sun comes out. It makes the sky blue and bright. It makes the ground dry and clean. Tom and Lily see the sun. They want to play outside again. They say, "Thank you, Mom. We had fun inside. But now we want to play outside. Can we go outside with our stuff?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, you can. But remember to put away your stuff when you are done. And be careful not to get dirty or hurt."
+
+Tom and Lily say, "OK, Mom. We will." They go outside with their stuff. They run, jump, ride and pretend. They have fun outside too.
+Sara loved to play with her toys, but she wanted a piano more than anything. She liked to hear the music and sing along. She asked her mom and dad for a piano many times, but they said it was too big and too expensive.
+
+One day, Sara saw a piano in the trash. It was old and dirty and had some keys missing. But Sara did not care. She dragged it to her house and put it in her room. She was very happy and started to play.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, I have a piano!" she shouted.
+
+Her mom and dad came to see. They were surprised and worried.
+
+"Sara, where did you get this piano?" her mom asked.
+
+"I found it in the trash, mom. It is mine now. I love it!" Sara said.
+
+"Sara, this piano is not good for you. It is rough and broken and may have germs. You could hurt yourself or get sick. You should not take things from the trash. They belong to someone else or need to be thrown away." her dad said.
+
+"But I want a piano, dad. I want to play music. Please, let me keep it." Sara begged.
+
+Her mom and dad looked at each other. They felt sorry for Sara, but they knew they had to teach her a lesson.
+
+"Sara, we understand that you want a piano, but this is not the way to get one. You have to work hard and save money and wait for the right time. You also have to respect other people's things and not take what is not yours. Maybe one day, you will receive a piano as a gift or buy one yourself. But for now, you have to give this piano back to where you found it. We will help you." her mom said.
+
+Sara was sad and angry. She did not want to give up her piano. She cried and stomped her feet. But her mom and dad were firm. They took the piano and put it back in the trash. They hugged Sara and told her they loved her.
+
+Sara learned a hard lesson that day. She realized that she was wrong to take the piano from the trash. She also realized that she had to be patient and grateful for what she had. She decided to play with her toys and practice her singing until she could get a real piano. She hoped that one day, her dream would come true.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. They used a big box as their ship and a blanket as their sail. They had a map that showed them where to find the gold.
+
+"Look, Lily, the map says the treasure is under the ashtray!" Ben said, pointing to the round thing on the table. "Let's go get it!"
+
+They climbed out of the box and ran to the table. They lifted the ashtray and saw a shiny coin. They were so happy they hugged each other.
+
+"Wow, we found the treasure!" Lily said. "We are the best pirates ever!"
+
+They put the coin in their pocket and put the ashtray back on the table. They noticed that the ashtray was dirty and had some black stuff on it.
+
+"Yuck, what is this?" Ben asked, wiping his hand on his shirt.
+
+"It's from the smoke," Lily said. "Mommy and Daddy sometimes smoke and put their sticks in the ashtray. They say it makes them feel better, but I don't like it. It smells bad and makes me cough."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. "I wish they would stop smoking and make the ashtray clean."
+
+They decided to make a sign for their parents. They took a piece of paper and a crayon and wrote: "Please don't smoke. We love you. Ben and Lily." They taped the sign to the ashtray and hoped their parents would see it.
+
+They went back to their box and continued their pirate adventure. They felt proud of themselves for finding the treasure and for telling their parents how they felt. They hugged each other again and smiled.
+Ria and Kai were playing in the cave. They liked to pretend they were hunters and make spears from sticks and stones. Ria had a long spear and Kai had a short spear. They wanted to hunt a big animal.
+
+They saw a rabbit outside the cave. It was brown and fluffy and had long ears. Ria and Kai ran after it with their spears. They wanted to catch it and bring it back to the cave. But the rabbit was fast and smart. It ran and jumped and hid behind rocks and bushes. Ria and Kai could not catch it.
+
+"Come here, rabbit!" Ria shouted. "We want to play with you!"
+
+"No, no, no!" Kai said. "We want to eat you!"
+
+The rabbit heard them and ran away even faster. Ria and Kai followed it, but they got tired and lost. They could not see the cave or the rabbit. They only saw rocks and trees and grass.
+
+Ria and Kai were frustrated. They wanted to go back to the cave and play with their spears. They did not want to hunt anymore. They sat down on a rock and cried.
+
+"Where are we?" Ria asked. "Where is the cave?"
+
+"I don't know," Kai said. "I'm hungry and thirsty and scared."
+
+They hugged each other and rocked on the rock. They hoped someone would find them and take them back to the cave. They missed their spears and their game. They learned that hunting was not fun.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. But today the sky was gloomy and the sun was hiding. Anna and Ben felt sad.
+
+"Where is the sun?" Anna asked. "I want to see the sun."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. "Maybe the sun is lost. Maybe the sun does not belong here."
+
+They looked around. They saw some birds, some flowers and some clouds. But they did not see the sun.
+
+"Maybe we can find the sun," Anna said. "Maybe we can help the sun."
+
+"How?" Ben asked.
+
+"Maybe we can sing to the sun," Anna said. "Maybe the sun will hear us and come out."
+
+They decided to try. They held hands and sang a song. They sang about the sun, how bright and warm and yellow it was. They sang about how they loved the sun and how the sun belonged with them.
+
+They sang and sang. And then, something happened. The clouds moved a little. A ray of light peeked through. The sun was there!
+
+"Look, look!" Anna shouted. "We found the sun! The sun is here!"
+
+"Yay, yay!" Ben cheered. "We helped the sun! The sun belongs here!"
+
+They smiled and laughed. They felt happy. The sun shone on them and made them warm. They played some more. They thanked the sun for coming out. They sang another song. They had a fun day.
+Anna likes to spend time at her desk. She has many things on her desk. She has crayons, paper, stickers, books and toys. She likes to draw, write, read and play at her desk.
+
+But sometimes her desk is not tidy. Sometimes she leaves her things all over the desk. Sometimes she forgets to put them away. Sometimes her mom tells her to tidy her desk.
+
+One day, Anna wants to draw a picture for her dad. She looks for her crayons on her desk. But she cannot find them. Her desk is too messy. She sees paper, stickers, books and toys. But she does not see her crayons.
+
+She feels sad and angry. She wants to draw a picture for her dad. But she cannot find her crayons. She wishes she had a tidy desk.
+
+She decides to tidy her desk. She puts her paper in a folder. She puts her stickers in a box. She puts her books on a shelf. She puts her toys in a basket. She looks for her crayons. She finds them under a book. She is happy.

+Ben and Lily liked to study books with pictures and stories. They had many books in their room, but their favorite was the book about ghosts. They liked to look at the ghosts and make scary noises.
+
+One night, they decided to study the ghost book before bed. They opened the book and saw a big, white ghost with a long tail. "Boo!" they said together, and laughed. They turned the page and saw a small, blue ghost with a funny hat. "Boo!" they said again, and giggled. They turned the page and saw a very attractive ghost with a smile and a flower. "Wow!" they said, and smiled.
+
+But then, they heard a noise from the closet. It sounded like a ghost. They looked at each other and felt scared. They closed the book and hid under the covers. They hoped it was not a real ghost.
+
+The noise got louder and louder. It sounded like a ghost was coming out of the closet. They heard a voice say, "Boo!"
+
+They screamed and held each other. They waited for the ghost to get them.
+
+But then, they heard another voice say, "Gotcha!"
+
+They peeked from under the covers and saw their dad. He was wearing a sheet and holding a flashlight. He had made the noise and the voice. He was not a ghost. He was playing a trick on them.
+
+They felt angry and relieved. They threw their pillows at him and said, "Dad, that's not funny!"
+
+He laughed and said, "Sorry, kids, I couldn't resist. I saw your ghost book and I wanted to have some fun. Do you forgive me?"
+
+They looked at him and said, "Yes, but don't do it again!"
+
+He hugged them and said, "I promise. Now, let's read the ghost book together. Maybe we can find a nice ghost to be friends with."
+
+They agreed and opened the book. They saw the attractive ghost with the smile and the flower. They said, "Maybe this one."
+
+They read the story and learned that the attractive ghost was kind and helpful. They liked the attractive ghost. They said, "Maybe ghosts are not so bad after all."

+Tom and Mia are twins who like to play in the kitchen. They have many toys, but they also like to open the refrigerator and see what is inside. One day, they find a big cake that Mom made for Dad's birthday. It looks yummy and has colorful frosting and candles.
+
+"Let's have some cake!" Tom says.
+
+"No, we can't. Mom said it is for Dad. He will be sad if we eat it." Mia says.
+
+"But I'm hungry. And it looks so good. Just a little bit won't hurt." Tom says.
+
+He takes a knife and cuts a slice of cake. He puts it on a plate and gives it to Mia. She takes a bite and smiles. It is sweet and soft.

+
+Tom and Mia are scared and sorry. They start to cry.

+
+Mom sighs. She is still angry, but she also loves them. She hugs them and wipes their tears.
+
+"I'm mad at you, but I also love you. You have to learn to listen and to share. You can't take things that are not yours. You have to say sorry to Dad. And you have to help me make a new cake." She says.
+

+Lily and Ben were playing in the woods. They liked to look for bugs and flowers and rocks. They had a magnifying glass to examine things closely.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a spider!" Lily said, holding up a leaf. "It has eight legs and a big round body. Do you want to see?"
+
+Ben nodded and took the magnifying glass. He examined the spider carefully. He saw its tiny eyes and fangs and hairs. He thought it was cool and scary.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was a hunter with a gun. He was looking for deer to shoot. He was wearing a pale green coat and a hat. He did not see Lily and Ben.
+
+"Shh, Lily, we have to hide!" Ben whispered, pulling her behind a tree. "He might hurt us or the animals. He is bad."
+
+Lily nodded and hugged Ben. She was scared and angry. She did not like the hunter. She wished he would go away.
+
+They stayed quiet and still until the hunter left. Then they ran back to their house. They told their mom what they saw. She hugged them and said they were brave and smart.

+
+Tim and Sam nod and lie down on their beds. But they are not sleepy. They want to play some more. They whisper to each other and giggle. They get up and take their cars and balls. They roll them on the floor and make vroom and beep sounds.
+

+

+
+"Of course, Anna. You are my friend. You can try anything you like." Lily said.
+
+Anna picked some of Lily's clothes and put them on her dolls. But they did not fit very well. Anna's dolls were bigger and fatter than Lily's dolls. The clothes were too small and tight. Some of them ripped and tore.
+
+"Oh, no, Lily, I'm sorry. I ruined your clothes. They don't fit my dolls. They are too big and fat." Anna said.
+
+Lily looked at her clothes and felt sad. She worked hard to make them and now they were broken. She wanted to cry.
+
+"It's okay, Anna. Don't be sorry. It's not your fault. My dolls and your dolls are different. They have different sizes and shapes. They need different clothes. Just like people. People are different too. They have different languages and cultures and preferences. They need different things to be happy and comfortable. We should respect and appreciate their differences, not judge or mock them. That's what friends do." Lily said.

+Tom is scared. He runs away. He shouts, "Help, help! The dog is after me!"

+They hug each other. They say, "We are okay. We are brave. We are friends."

+Tom was a gifted boy who liked to make things with paper and scissors. He cut out shapes and colors and glued them together. He made animals, cars, houses and more. He was very happy with his creations.
+
+One day, it was very cold outside. Tom wanted to play in the snow, but his mom said he had to wear his coat and hat and gloves. Tom did not like that. He wanted to feel the snow on his skin. He had an idea. He took his scissors and cut a hole in his coat and hat and gloves. He thought he was very clever.
+
+He ran outside and threw snowballs and made a snowman. He felt the snow on his face and hands and feet. He laughed and smiled. He did not notice that he was getting very cold. He did not notice that his fingers and toes and nose were turning blue. He did not notice that his mom was calling him to come inside.
+
+Soon, he started to shiver and shake. He felt very cold and tired. He wanted to go inside, but he could not move. He was frozen. He dropped his scissors and fell to the ground. He was scared and sad. He wished he had listened to his mom.
+
+His mom saw him and ran to him. She picked him up and wrapped him in a blanket. She carried him inside and put him by the fire. She rubbed his fingers and toes and nose. She gave him hot chocolate and a hug. She told him he was very silly and very lucky. She told him she loved him. He said he was sorry and he loved her too. He learned his lesson. He never cut his coat and hat and gloves again. He was still a gifted boy, but he was also a smart boy.
+Lila liked to collect things. She had a box full of shells, rocks, feathers and buttons. She liked to look at them and make patterns with them. She also liked to collect stories from her grandma, who told her about the places she had been and the people she had met.
+
+One day, Lila wanted to collect something new. She looked out of the window and saw the sky. It was full of clouds. Some were white and fluffy, some were gray and dark. Lila wondered what they felt like. She wished she could touch them and put them in her box.
+
+She asked her grandma, "Can I collect clouds?"
+
+Her grandma smiled and said, "Clouds are very special. They are made of water and air. They change shape and color all the time. They can't fit in a box. But you can collect them in another way. You can draw them, or write about them, or make up stories about them. You can use your imagination and make them anything you want."
+
+Lila liked that idea. She got some paper and crayons and started to draw the clouds. She made some happy clouds, some sad clouds, some angry clouds, some silly clouds. She gave them names and personalities. She told her grandma the stories she made up about them.
+
+Lila had fun collecting clouds. She forgot that it was a rainy day and that she couldn't go outside. She wasn't miserable anymore. She was happy and creative. She learned that sometimes, the best things to collect are not things at all, but ideas and memories.
+Tommy wanted to help his mother bake a cake. He saw her take a big bowl and some eggs and flour from the cupboard. He climbed on a chair and said, "Me help, me help!"
+
+Mother smiled and said, "Okay, Tommy, you can help me. But be careful, the bowl is heavy and the eggs are fragile. Can you reach the spoon for me?"
+
+Tommy looked at the spoon on the counter. It was too far for him. He stretched his arm and tried to grab it, but he could not. He felt sad and said, "No, me no reach. Me too small."
+
+Mother hugged him and said, "Don't worry, Tommy, you are not too small. You are growing every day. Here, I will help you reach the spoon. Now you can stir the batter with me. See how nice and smooth it is?"
+
+Tommy was happy. He held the spoon with his mother and stirred the batter. He liked the sound and the smell of it. He said, "Me stir, me stir. Me make cake."
+
+Mother kissed him and said, "Yes, you make cake. You are a good helper, Tommy. I am very proud of you."
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with drums. They have two drums, one big and one small. Tom likes the big drum, and Mia likes the small drum. They make loud noises with the drums. They have fun.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia want to play with the drums together. They try to make the same noise. But they do not. Tom hits the big drum fast and hard. Mia hits the small drum slow and soft. They do not have the same rhythm. They do not sound good.
+
+"Tom, stop!" Mia says. "You are too loud. You have to hit the drum like me."
+
+"No, Mia, you stop!" Tom says. "You are too quiet. You have to hit the drum like me."
+
+They do not listen to each other. They do not want to change. They resist. They hit the drums louder and louder. They get angry.
+
+Then, Mom comes in. She sees Tom and Mia. She hears the noise. She is not happy.
+
+"Tom, Mia, what are you doing?" Mom says. "You are making too much noise. You are not playing nice. You have to share the drums. You have to take turns. You have to listen to each other."
+
+Tom and Mia look at Mom. They see her face. She is not smiling. She is serious. They feel bad. They stop hitting the drums.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Tom says.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Mia says.
+

+Ben and Lily look at the small slide. It is not as high. It is not as fast. It is not as scary. It looks fun.
+
+They nod. They say sorry to each other. They are friends again.
+
+They run to the small slide. There is no line. They can go as many times as they want. They laugh and smile. They have fun.
+
+They are happy. Their moms are happy too. They watch them play. They go on the small slide too. They are all happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll and Ben had a car. They liked to make up stories and act them out.
+
+"Let's do a show for Mommy and Daddy," Lily said. "They will be home soon."
+
+"OK, what do we do?" Ben asked.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She saw a ball of string on the table. She had an idea.
+
+"We can do a circus show," she said. "You can be the lion and I can be the trainer. I will use the string as a whip."
+
+Ben liked the idea. He roared and pretended to be a fierce lion. Lily took the string and made a loop. She waved it in the air and said, "Sit, lion, sit!"
+
+Ben obeyed and sat on the floor. Lily smiled and said, "Good lion, now jump through the hoop!"
+
+Ben jumped through the loop of string. Lily clapped and said, "Bravo, lion, bravo!"
+
+They did more tricks and had fun. They heard the door open. Mommy and Daddy came in.
+
+"Look, Mommy, Daddy, we did a circus show for you!" Lily said.
+
+Mommy and Daddy smiled and praised them. They hugged and kissed them.
+
+"That was a very thoughtful and creative show, Lily and Ben," Mommy said. "We are so proud of you."
+
+"We love you, Mommy and Daddy," Lily and Ben said.
+Tom and Mia are playing in the park. They like to run, jump and slide. They see a big house with a fence. They are curious. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They open the gate and enter the house. It is very dark and quiet. There is no one there. They hear a strange noise. It sounds like a growl. They are scared. They want to leave.
+
+They run to the door, but it is locked. They look for another way out. They see a window. It is high and small. They need a chair. They find one in the kitchen. They drag it to the window.
+
+They climb on the chair and push the window. It opens a little bit. They see the sun and the park. They feel happy. They try to squeeze through the window.
+
+But then they hear the noise again. It is louder and closer. They turn around and see a big dog. It has sharp teeth and angry eyes. It is not friendly. It wants to bite them.
+
+They scream and cry. They are trapped. They wish they never entered the house. They wish they stayed in the park. They are in deep trouble. They hope someone will hear them and help them. They hope the dog will go away. They hope for silence.
+Lily and Ben wanted to decorate the big tree in the yard. They had many shiny things to hang on the branches. They also had a star for the top.
+
+"Let me put the star, Lily!" Ben said. He was careless and climbed too high. He slipped and fell on the black dirt. He hurt his knee and cried.
+
+"Oh no, Ben!" Lily said. She ran to help him. She saw blood on his knee and felt scared. She hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Ben. It's okay. I'll get Mom."
+
+Mom came and saw Ben and Lily. She was worried and angry. She said, "What happened? Why did you climb the tree? You could have been hurt badly!"
+
+"We wanted to decorate the tree, Mom," Lily said. "But Ben was careless and fell. I'm sorry, Mom. We didn't mean to be bad."
+
+Mom sighed and said, "I know, Lily. But you have to be careful and listen to me. Trees are not for climbing. They are for looking and enjoying. Come on, let's go inside and clean Ben's knee. Then we can decorate the tree together, safely and nicely."
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they want different things. One day, they have some money from their grandma. They want to spend it on something fun.
+
+Tom says, "Let's buy a big ball. We can kick it and throw it and roll it."
+
+Lily says, "No, let's buy a doll. We can dress it and comb it and hug it."
+
+They argue and argue. They cannot agree. They have a big question: what should they buy?
+
+They go to the store with their mom. They see many things. They see books and cars and puzzles and candy. They still want different things.
+
+Tom says, "Look, a dinosaur. It is green and scary. I want it."
+
+Lily says, "Look, a crown. It is shiny and pretty. I want it."
+
+They pull and tug. They do not share. They have a big problem: they have only one money.
+
+Their mom says, "You have to choose. You can buy one thing together, or you can split the money and buy something each. But you have to decide now."
+
+Tom and Lily think hard. They want to be happy, but they also want to be independent. They have a big decision: what should they do?
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play with toys. One day, they found a big box with many things inside. They saw a trumpet, a hat, a ball, and a doll. Lily wanted to play with the trumpet, but Ben wanted it too.
+
+"Give me the trumpet!" Ben said.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Lily said.
+
+They both pulled the trumpet and started to fight. They made loud noises and pushed each other. The trumpet fell on the floor and made a big sound. Lily and Ben stopped fighting and looked at the trumpet. It was broken.
+
+"Oh no, we broke the trumpet!" Lily said.
+
+"I am sorry, Lily. I was bad." Ben said.
+
+"I am sorry, too. I was bad." Lily said.
+
+They hugged and said sorry. They felt dizzy from fighting and loud noises. They decided to play with something else. They picked up the hat and the ball and had fun. They forgot about the trumpet and the fight. They were friends again.
+Lily liked to catch insects in her jar. She found ants, beetles, spiders and flies. She put them in her jar and watched them crawl and buzz. She did not give them any food or water. She was naughty.
+
+One day, her big brother Tom saw her jar. He was angry. He said, "Lily, you are mean. You are hurting the insects. They need air and space and food. You have to release them now."
+
+Lily did not want to release them. She said, "No, they are mine. I like them. They are fun."
+
+Tom said, "No, they are not fun. They are scared and sad. They want to go home. If you do not release them, I will tell Mom."
+
+Lily did not want Mom to know. She knew Mom would be mad. She said, "Fine, I will release them. But you have to help me."
+
+Tom said, "OK, I will help you. But you have to promise me to be nice to the insects from now on."
+
+Lily said, "OK, I promise."
+
+They took the jar outside. They opened the lid. The insects flew and ran away. They looked happy. Lily felt sorry. She said, "I am sorry, insects. I will not catch you again. I will be nice to you."
+
+Tom said, "That's good, Lily. I am proud of you. You did the right thing. Now, do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I want to play with you. You are a good brother. Thank you for helping me."
+
+They hugged and ran to the swing. They played and laughed. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat something sweet. They saw a big jar of sugar on the shelf. They climbed on a chair to reach it.
+
+"Let's take some sugar and make a cake!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, but we have to be quiet. Mom will be angry if she sees us," Ben said.
+
+They opened the jar and poured some sugar into a bowl. They added some water and stirred it. They put the bowl in the microwave and pressed a button.
+
+The microwave made a loud noise. Smoke came out of it. The sugar burned and smelled bad.
+
+"Help! Help!" Lily and Ben cried.
+
+Mom heard them and ran to the kitchen. She saw the fire and the smoke. She grabbed a towel and threw it on the microwave. She turned it off and opened the window.
+
+She was very angry. She scolded Lily and Ben.
+
+"What were you doing? You could have hurt yourself! You could have burned the house! You are very naughty!"
+
+She took them to their room and locked the door. She said they could not have any cake or candy for a week.
+
+Lily and Ben were sad. They wished they had not taken the sugar. They wished someone would rescue them. But no one came.
+Tom and Jen are playing with their toys in the living room. Tom has a big truck and Jen has a doll. They are having fun, but they are also hungry.
+
+"Mom, can we have a snack?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, honey. I'll bring you some cookies and milk on a tray," Mom says.
+
+Mom goes to the kitchen and gets a tray. She puts some cookies and two cups of milk on it. She carries the tray to the living room. She sees Tom and Jen on the floor.
+
+"Here you go, kids. Enjoy your snack," Mom says.
+
+She puts the tray on the coffee table and sits on the couch. She picks up a magazine and starts to read.
+
+Tom and Jen are happy. They reach for the cookies and the milk. They say, "Thank you, Mom."
+
+They eat and drink and talk. They share their toys and stories.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Jen's doll falls from her lap and lands on the floor. The doll's head breaks off. Jen sees her doll and screams.
+
+"Mom, Mom, my doll is dead!" Jen cries.
+
+Mom hears Jen and drops her magazine. She runs to Jen and hugs her.
+
+"Oh, no, sweetie. I'm so sorry. Your doll is not dead. She's just broken. We can fix her, don't worry," Mom says.
+
+She picks up the doll and the head. She looks for some glue or tape.
+
+Tom sees Jen and Mom. He feels sorry for Jen. He wants to help her. He has an idea.
+
+"Jen, look. I have something for you. You can have my truck. It's big and strong and fun. You can play with it and gain speed. It's better than a doll," Tom says.
+
+He gives his truck to Jen. He smiles.
+
+Jen looks at Tom and his truck. She stops crying. She wipes her tears. She takes the truck. She smiles.
+
+"Thank you, Tom. You are very nice. I like your truck. It's big and strong and fun. I can play with it and gain speed. It's better than a doll," Jen says.
+
+She hugs Tom. She hugs Mom. She hugs the truck.
+
+Mom sees Tom and Jen. She feels proud. She smiles.
+
+"You are very sweet, Tom. You are a good brother. You made Jen happy. I'm proud of you," Mom says.
+
+She hugs Tom. She hugs Jen. She hugs the doll.
+
+They all sit on the couch. They eat and drink and talk. They share their toys and stories.
+
+They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big bush with many blueberries. They are happy and hungry.
+
+"I want to pick the blueberries," Anna says. "They are sweet and juicy."
+
+"Me too," Ben says. "But we have to be careful. Some blueberries are deep in the bush. They have thorns and bugs."
+
+Anna and Ben start to pick the blueberries. They fill their hands and mouths. They smile and laugh.
+
+But soon, they disagree. Anna wants to pick more blueberries. She sees some deep in the bush. They are big and dark.
+
+"Look, Ben," Anna says. "There are more blueberries. Let's get them."
+
+"No, Anna," Ben says. "They are too deep. We have enough blueberries. Let's go home."
+
+Anna does not listen. She reaches for the deep blueberries. She does not see the thorns and bugs. She hurts her hand and cries.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow," Anna says. "My hand is red and sore."
+
+Ben hears Anna cry. He runs to help her. He sees her hand. He feels sorry for her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna," Ben says. "Let me see your hand. I have a band-aid in my pocket."
+
+Anna stops crying. She lets Ben see her hand. He puts the band-aid on her hand. He hugs her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Anna says. "You were right. The deep blueberries are bad. I should have listened to you."
+
+"It's okay, Anna," Ben says. "You are my friend. I forgive you. Let's go home and share our blueberries."
+
+Anna and Ben hold hands. They walk home. They are friends again. They enjoy their blueberries. They are sweet and juicy.
+Tom and Mia are playing in the living room. They have many toys, but they are bored. They want to watch something on the television. But the television is off and they do not know how to turn it on.
+
+They see a big button on the side of the television. They think it is the button to turn it on. Tom says, "Let's push the button and see what happens." Mia says, "OK, but be careful. Maybe it is not the right button."
+
+They go to the television and Tom pushes the button. The television does not turn on. Instead, it opens a small door on the front. Inside the door, there is a shiny disk. They have never seen a disk like that before. It is unknown to them.
+
+They are curious and scared. They wonder what the disk is and what it does. They hear a voice from the television. It says, "Hello, children. I am a DVD player. I can play movies for you. Do you want to watch a movie?"
+
+They are surprised and excited. They say, "Yes, yes, we want to watch a movie!" The voice says, "OK, then. Please take the disk and put it in the slot. Then, press the play button. Enjoy the movie!"

+Tim and Liz are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big swamp near their house. They want to go and look.
+
+"Let's go to the swamp!" Tim says. "Maybe we can find frogs and bugs."
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful," Liz says. "The swamp is wet and muddy. And maybe there are snakes and crocodiles."
+
+They hold hands and walk to the swamp. They see green plants and brown water. They hear birds and frogs. They smell something bad.
+
+"Look, there is a frog!" Tim points. "It is green and shiny. It is charming."
+
+He tries to catch the frog, but it jumps away. He follows it into the swamp. He gets his shoes and pants wet and dirty.
+
+"Tim, come back!" Liz calls. "You are too far. The swamp is dangerous."
+
+But Tim does not listen. He wants the frog. He goes deeper and deeper into the swamp. He does not see where he is going.
+
+Suddenly, he hears a loud roar. He sees a big crocodile. It has sharp teeth and a long tail. It is not charming. It is scary.
+
+"Help!" Tim screams. "There is a crocodile!"
+
+Liz hears Tim. She is scared too. But she is brave. She runs to the swamp. She finds a big stick. She throws it at the crocodile. The crocodile is angry. It bites the stick and lets go of Tim.
+
+"Tim, run!" Liz shouts. "Come to me!"
+
+Tim runs to Liz. They hug each other. They are safe. They are happy.
+
+They run away from the swamp. They go back to their house. They tell their mom and dad what happened. They are proud of Liz. She is a hero.

+They learn a lesson. They do not go to the swamp again. They play in the yard. They find a charming frog. They are friends. They are happy.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a big red ball. They kick the ball to each other. Sometimes they miss the ball and laugh.

+
+"Help! Help!" they shout. "The dog is loud and fast!"
+
+They see a big tree. They run to the tree. They climb the tree. They sit on a branch. They hug each other. They are safe.
+
+The dog stops at the tree. It barks at Tom and Mia. It jumps and tries to reach them. It cannot climb the tree. It is angry.
+
+Tom and Mia see a man. The man has a hat and a coat. He has a zip on his coat. He walks to the dog. He calls the dog.
+
+"Rex! Rex! Come here, boy!" he says. "Stop barking! You are a good dog!"
+
+The dog hears the man. It stops barking. It runs to the man. It wags its tail. The man pets the dog. He puts a leash on the dog. He zips his coat.
+
+"Sorry, kids!" he says to Tom and Mia. "Rex is not bad. He just likes to play. He likes balls. He did not want to hurt you."
+
+Tom and Mia look at the man and the dog. They are not scared anymore. They smile.
+
+"Can we play with Rex?" they ask. "Can we throw the ball for him?"
+
+The man nods. He smiles.
+
+"Sure, you can!" he says. "But be careful. Rex is strong. He might pull you. And don't lie on the ground. He might lick you!"

+Jill liked to play with her fairy doll. She named her fairy doll Lily and gave her a pink dress and a shiny crown. Jill and Lily did everything together. They had tea parties, read books, and danced in the garden.
+
+One day, Jill's mom said they had to go to the post office. Jill did not want to go. She wanted to stay home and play with Lily. But Jill was an obedient girl, so she put on her coat and shoes and followed her mom. She brought Lily with her, too.
+
+At the post office, Jill's mom had to mail some letters and packages. She gave Jill a stamp and told her to stick it on an envelope. Jill did as she was told, but she was bored. She looked around and saw a big mailbox. It had a slot where people put their mail. Jill wondered what was inside.
+
+She had an idea. She thought it would be fun to mail Lily to a friend. She thought Lily would like to see new places and meet new people. She did not ask her mom. She did not think it was wrong. She just smiled and said, "Bye bye, Lily!" and pushed her fairy doll through the slot.
+
+But as soon as she did, she heard a loud clang. The mailbox was locked. Jill could not get Lily back. She started to cry. She realized she had made a big mistake. She had lost her best friend. She ran to her mom and told her what she had done.
+
+Her mom was very angry and sad. She scolded Jill and said, "How could you do that, Jill? You know you should not play with other people's mail. You know you should not give away your toys without asking. You know you should not be so careless and naughty. Lily was a special gift from your grandma. She was not just a doll. She was a fairy. She had magic. She could grant you wishes. But now you have lost her forever. You will never see her again. You have made a very bad choice, Jill. You have made me and yourself very unhappy."
+
+Jill felt very sorry and ashamed. She wished she could take back what she had done. She wished she could hug Lily and say sorry. She wished she could have one more wish from Lily. But it was too late. The mailbox was closed. Lily was gone. Jill had no fairy, no magic, and no fun. She had only tears and regret.
+Lisa and Tom were twins who liked to help their mom in the kitchen. One day, mom was making a cake and asked them to get the eggs and the flour. Lisa and Tom ran to the fridge and the pantry and brought back the ingredients. Mom smiled and said, "Thank you, my sweeties. Now, can you watch the mixer for me while I go and check on the oven?"
+
+Lisa and Tom nodded and climbed on the stools next to the mixer. They saw the bowl with the butter and the sugar and the mixer with the whisks. They heard the mixer make a loud noise as it spun and mixed the butter and the sugar. They wondered what would happen if they touched the mixer.
+
+Tom was curious and reached out his hand to the mixer. He wanted to feel the whisks. Lisa saw him and said, "No, Tom, don't do that! Mom said to watch, not touch!" But Tom did not listen and touched the mixer. He felt a sharp pain and pulled back his hand. He saw blood on his finger and started to cry.
+
+Lisa was scared and sorry. She hugged Tom and said, "I'm sorry, Tom, are you okay?" She felt guilty for not stopping him. She hoped he was not hurt too much. She also hoped mom would not be angry with them.
+
+Mom heard Tom's cry and came back to the kitchen. She saw Tom's finger and Lisa's face and understood what happened. She turned off the mixer and took Tom to the sink. She washed his finger and put a band-aid on it. She said, "Tom, you were very naughty. You should never touch the mixer when it is on. It is dangerous and can hurt you. Do you understand?" Tom nodded and said, "Yes, mom, I'm sorry. It was my fault. I won't do it again." Mom said, "I'm glad you are sorry, but you also need to be careful. I love you and I don't want you to get hurt." She kissed his cheek and said, "Now, let's go and finish the cake together. Lisa, you can help me too. You were a good sister and tried to warn Tom. But next time, if he does not listen, you can call me for help. Okay?" Lisa nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I'm sorry too. I love you and Tom." Mom said, "I love you too, my sweeties. Now, let's go and have some fun in the kitchen."
+Tim and Jen are twins who like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but they do not like to share them. They always fight over who gets to play with what. Their mom tells them to be nice and yield, but they do not listen.
+
+One day, they find a big box in the living room. It has a label that says "To Tim and Jen, from Grandma". They are very excited and want to see what is inside. They run to the box and try to open it, but they both pull on the same flap. They start to argue and tug on the box.
+
+"Let go, it's mine!" Tim says.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Jen says.
+
+They pull harder and harder, until the box rips apart. They fall to the floor and look at the mess. The box is broken and the toys are scattered everywhere. They see cars, dolls, books, puzzles, and more. They are very happy and forget their fight. They start to grab the toys and play with them.
+
+Their mom comes in and sees the chaos. She is not happy. She says, "What have you done? Look at this place! It's not tidy at all! You have to clean up this mess right now!"
+
+Tim and Jen look at each other and feel sorry. They realize they were not nice and yield. They say, "We're sorry, mom. We will clean up. We will share the toys. Thank you for the gift, Grandma."
+
+They start to pick up the toys and put them back in the box. They also say sorry to each other and hug. They learn to be nice and yield. Their mom smiles and says, "That's good. I'm proud of you. Now you can play with the toys, but only if you keep the place tidy and share."
+
+Tim and Jen nod and say, "Okay, mom. We will." They play with the toys and have fun. They are happy and so is their mom.
+Sam and Lily were twins who liked to play games. They had a big box of games in their room. One day, they decided to play a game with cards. The game was called Go Fish.
+
+"Sam, do you have any fours?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, I don't. Go fish!" Sam said.
+
+Lily took a card from the pile. It was a four. She smiled and put it with her other fours.
+
+"Ha, I have four fours now. I am going to win!" Lily said.
+
+Sam looked at his cards. He only had two pairs. He needed more cards to win.
+
+"Lily, do you have any sevens?" Sam asked.
+
+"Yes, I do. Here you go!" Lily said. She gave Sam a seven.
+
+Sam was happy. He had three sevens now. He hoped to find another seven.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are very nice," Sam said.
+
+Lily and Sam kept playing until they had no more cards. Then they counted their pairs.
+
+"I have six pairs. How many do you have, Sam?" Lily asked.
+
+"I have seven pairs. I win!" Sam said.
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to win too.
+
+"Sam, you are very good at this game. But can we play another game? Maybe I can win that one," Lily said.
+
+Sam nodded. He loved his sister. He wanted her to be happy too.
+
+"Okay, Lily. Let's play another game. How about we pretend we are in a hotel?" Sam said.
+
+Lily smiled. She liked to pretend.
+
+"Okay, Sam. Let's pretend we are in a hotel. You can be the manager and I can be the guest," Lily said.
+
+They got some pillows and blankets and made a hotel in their room. They had a lot of fun pretending. They met some harmless animals who wanted to stay in their hotel. They gave them names and snacks. They laughed and played until their mom called them for dinner.
+
+"Sam, Lily, time to eat!" Mom said.
+
+"Okay, Mom. We are coming!" Sam and Lily said.
+
+They put their games and pillows and blankets away. They hugged each other and ran to the kitchen.
+
+They had a good day. They played games and pretended. They were happy. They loved each other. They were twins.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big basket full of colorful balls. They liked to toss the balls, roll them, and sort them by color.
+
+One day, they decided to have a contest. They wanted to see who could separate the balls into two piles faster. Lily said, "I will take the red and blue balls. You take the yellow and green balls. Ready, set, go!" Max nodded and they both started to grab the balls from the basket.
+
+They were very fast and soon the basket was empty. They looked at their piles and counted the balls. Lily had 12 red balls and 10 blue balls. Max had 11 yellow balls and 9 green balls. They both said, "I win!" at the same time.
+
+They looked at each other and laughed. They realized they had the same number of balls, but different colors. They decided to share their balls and mix them up again. They said, "We are both winners! We have unique balls!"
+
+They put the balls back in the basket and hugged each other. They were happy to play together and to have fun with their unique balls.
+Lily was a big girl who liked to learn new things. She wanted to go to university when she grew up, like her mom and dad. They told her that university was a place where you could study many things and meet many people.
+
+One day, Lily went with her mom to visit the university. It was a cold day, so they wore warm coats and hats. Lily saw many big buildings and many big books. She also saw many students who looked happy and busy. She wanted to talk to them and ask them what they were learning.
+
+Lily's mom took her to a big hall where there was a stage and many chairs. She said they were going to watch a play that the students had made. Lily was excited. She liked to watch plays and pretend to be different characters. She and her mom set on two chairs in the front row and waited for the play to start.
+
+The play was about a princess and a dragon. The princess was brave and smart, and the dragon was friendly and funny. They had many adventures and made many friends. Lily laughed and clapped and cheered. She thought the play was very good and the students were very talented.
+
+When the play was over, Lily's mom took her to meet some of the students who were in the play. They were very nice and told Lily how they made the play and what they liked about university. Lily asked them many questions and they answered them with big words and big smiles. Lily felt happy and curious. She decided that she wanted to go to university and make plays and learn new things. She told her mom that she loved university and she thanked the students for the play. They hugged her and said she was welcome and they hoped to see her again. Lily smiled and waved goodbye. She had a wonderful day at the university.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big hill with a hole in it. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's go in!" Tom said. He ran to the hole.
+
+"Wait, Tom!" Sara said. She was scared. "It might be dark and scary in there!"
+
+Tom did not listen. He went into the hole. Sara followed him. She did not want to be alone.
+
+Inside the hole, it was dark and cold. They could not see anything. They heard a strange noise.
+
+"Hello?" Tom said. "Who is there?"
+
+"Hello, children," a voice said. "I am a skeleton. I live in this hole."
+
+Sara and Tom were very afraid. They saw a white shape with bones and no skin. It had big eyes and teeth.
+
+"Please don't hurt us, Mr. Skeleton!" Sara said. "We are sorry for coming into your home!"
+
+The skeleton smiled. "Don't worry, children. I am not going to hurt you. I am a helpful skeleton. I like to make friends."
+
+"Really?" Tom said. He was curious. "How can you be helpful, Mr. Skeleton?"
+
+The skeleton said, "I can teach you many things. I can show you how your body works. I can tell you stories about the past. I can help you find your way out of this hole."
+
+Sara and Tom felt less scared. They thought the skeleton was nice. They wanted to learn from him.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Skeleton!" Sara said. "You are very kind. Can we be your friends?"

+
+One day, they saw a big hill in the valley. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side. They started to walk up the hill, but it was hard and steep. Lily was tired and scared.
+
+"Ben, I want to quit. The hill is too big and high. I want to go back to the valley," Lily said.
+
+"No, Lily, don't quit. We are almost there. I want to see what is on the other side. Maybe there is something fun and new. Come on, Lily, you can do it," Ben said.
+
+He took her hand and helped her walk up the hill. Lily was still tired and scared, but she trusted Ben. She did not want to let him down. She walked with him until they reached the top of the hill.
+
+They looked around and saw a beautiful lake on the other side. The lake was blue and shiny. There were ducks, fish and frogs in the lake. There were also more flowers, trees and animals around the lake.
+
+"Lily, look! The lake is so pretty. We did it. We climbed the big hill. Aren't you happy?" Ben said.
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She was happy. She was proud of herself and Ben. She forgot her tiredness and fear. She hugged Ben and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. You helped me not to quit. The lake is so pretty. Let's go and play in the lake."

+Sam says, "That is not tough. That is easy. My car is tough. It can lift something bigger. It has bigger muscles." He looks around for something to lift with his car.
+
+He sees a log near the fence. He tries to lift it with his car, but it is too heavy. He pushes and pulls, but the log does not move. He grunts and groans, but the log does not budge.
+
+Tim laughs and says, "Ha ha, you cannot lift the log. Your car is not tough. Your car is weak. It has no muscles."
+
+Sam feels sad and angry. He says, "No, my car is tough. My car has muscles. You are mean. You are not my brother."

And Tim is your brother. He loves you. He was just teasing you. Why don't you go back and play with him? Maybe you can share your toys and lift something together."
+
+Sam thinks for a moment. He says, "Okay, mom. I will go back and play with Tim. Maybe we can lift the log together. That would be fun."
+
+He runs back to the yard, where Tim is waiting for him. He says, "Sorry, Tim. I was mad. You are my brother. You are not mean. Can we play together?"
+
+Tim smiles and says, "Sure, Sam. I am sorry, too. You are my brother. You are not weak. Can we share our toys?"

+Tom and Anna like to collect things. They have a big box full of shells, rocks, feathers, and stickers. They also have a rule: they have to share their things with each other. That is their law.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their mom. They see a lot of flowers and leaves on the ground. They want to collect them and put them in their box. They each take a paper bag and start to pick up the pretty things.
+
+"Look, Anna, I found a yellow flower!" Tom says.
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is nice! I found a red leaf!" Anna says.
+
+They are happy and fill their bags with more flowers and leaves. Then they see a big tree with a swing. They want to play on the swing. They run to the tree and put their bags on the grass.
+
+"Can I go first?" Tom asks.
+
+"OK, Tom, but only for a little bit. Then it is my turn." Anna says.
+
+Tom nods and climbs on the swing. He pushes himself with his feet and swings high. He feels the wind on his face and laughs. Anna watches him and waits.
+
+Then she sees something shiny in the grass. She walks over and picks it up. It is a bracelet with colorful beads. It is flexible and can bend. She likes it very much. She puts it on her wrist and admires it.
+
+"Anna, it is your turn now!" Tom calls from the swing.
+
+"OK, Tom, I am coming!" Anna says. She forgets about her bag and runs to the swing. She takes Tom's place and swings high. She feels the wind on her face and laughs. Tom watches her and waits.
+
+Then he sees something sparkly in the grass. He walks over and picks it up. It is a ring with a big stone. It is shiny and can fit on his finger. He likes it very much. He puts it on his finger and shows it off.
+
+"Tom, Anna, it is time to go home!" their mom says from the bench.
+
+"OK, mom, we are coming!" Tom and Anna say. They forget about their bags and run to their mom. They hug her and show her their bracelet and ring.
+
+"Wow, you found some treasures!" their mom says. "Where did you get them?"
+
+"We found them in the grass!" Tom and Anna say.
+
+"Really? That is lucky! But did you also collect some flowers and leaves?" their mom asks.
+
+Tom and Anna look at each other. They remember their bags. They left them on the grass. They feel sad. They broke their law. They did not share their things.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We forgot our bags. We did not share our things." Tom and Anna say.
+
+Their mom smiles and hugs them. "It is OK, my loves. You made a mistake, but you can fix it. Let's go back and get your bags. Then you can share your flowers and leaves with each other. And maybe you can also share your bracelet and ring. They are very nice, but they are not yours. Someone else might be looking for them." their mom says.
+
+Tom and Anna nod and agree. They are flexible and can change their minds. They go back and get their bags. They share their flowers and leaves with each other. They also decide to leave their bracelet and ring on the bench. Maybe someone will find them and be happy.
+
+They go home with their mom. They are happy and proud. They followed their law. They shared their things.
+Sara and Tom like to play in the park. They see many things there: trees, flowers, birds, and bugs. One day, they find a frog near the pond. The frog is green and wet. It jumps and croaks.
+
+"Look, a frog!" Sara says. "Can we keep it?"
+
+Tom shakes his head. "No, we can't. The frog is wild. It needs to live in the pond. If we take it home, it will be sad and sick."
+
+Sara feels sad too. She likes the frog. She wants to be its friend. She thinks of a way to make the frog happy.
+
+"I have an idea," she says. "Let's offer the frog some food. Maybe it will like us then."
+
+Tom nods. He thinks it is a good idea. They look around for something to feed the frog. They see some flies buzzing near the trash can. They run to catch them.
+
+"Here, froggy, froggy," Sara calls. "We have a treat for you."
+
+They hold out their hands with the flies. The frog sees them and hops closer. It opens its mouth and snaps at the flies. It eats them all.
+
+"Yum, yum," the frog says. "Thank you, kids. You are very kind."
+
+Sara and Tom smile. They are happy that the frog likes their food. They feel like they have a new friend.
+
+"Can we play with you, froggy?" Sara asks.
+
+"Sure, you can," the frog says. "But only in the park. This is my home. I like it here."
+
+Sara and Tom agree. They understand that the frog is wild and needs to be free. They play with the frog for a while. They watch it jump and swim and croak. They have fun.
+
+They say goodbye to the frog when it is time to go. They promise to come back and visit. The frog waves at them with its webbed feet. It is happy too. It has met some nice kids.
+Sara loves ice cream. She likes to eat it after dinner. But today, she cannot find her ice cream in the freezer. She asks her mom, "Where is my ice cream?"
+
+Mom says, "I'm sorry, Sara. I forgot to buy more ice cream. We ran out of it yesterday."
+
+Sara feels sad. She really wants ice cream. She says, "Can we go to the store and buy some?"
+
+Mom says, "Not today, Sara. It is too late and dark. But I have an idea. Why don't we make our own ice cream?"
+
+Sara is curious. She says, "How can we make ice cream?"
+
+Mom says, "It is easy. We need milk, sugar, vanilla, and a plastic bag. Come, I will show you."
+
+Mom and Sara go to the kitchen. Mom pours some milk and sugar into a small plastic bag. She adds a drop of vanilla. She seals the bag and shakes it. Then she puts the bag inside a bigger plastic bag. She fills the bigger bag with ice and salt. She seals it and gives it to Sara.
+
+Mom says, "Now, you have to shake the bag for a long time. The ice and salt will make the milk freeze and turn into ice cream."
+
+Sara shakes the bag. She shakes it hard and fast. She shakes it for a long time. She feels the bag getting colder and harder. She says, "Is it ready?"
+
+Mom says, "Let's see. Open the bag and check."
+
+Sara opens the bag. She sees a soft and white ball of ice cream. She takes a spoon and tastes it. It is sweet and creamy. She says, "Wow, this is good. This is the best ice cream ever."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "I'm glad you like it. You made it yourself. You are a famous ice cream maker."
+
+Sara feels happy. She says, "Thank you, mom. You are the best mom ever."
+
+Mom and Sara hug. They share the ice cream. They return the empty bags to the freezer. They go to bed with sweet dreams.

+
+"Hello, who are you?" Sara asked.
+
+"I am Rex, the king of the tree. And this is my new nest," the new bird said, pointing to a big hole in the trunk.
+
+"But that is my nest! That is where I live with my mom and dad!" Sara said.
+
+"Too bad. I like this nest. It is big and cozy. And I am the king, so I can take what I want," Rex said.
+
+"That is not fair! You can't just take my nest! You have to share!" Sara said.
+
+"Share? Ha! I don't share with anyone. Now go away, or I will peck you!" Rex said.
+
+Sara was scared and sad. She flew away to find her mom and dad. But they were not in the tree. They were on the ground, hurt and bleeding. Rex had pecked them and pushed them out of the nest. Sara cried and cried. She had no nest, no mom, no dad, and no friends. Rex had taken everything from her. He was a bad bird.

+"We are so pretty!" Ben said.
+
+They played with the shiny things for a long time. They pretended to be pirates and princesses and explorers. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But they did not know that the sack belonged to a mean old man. He had stolen the shiny things from other people. He had hidden the sack under the bush and went to get more.
+
+When he came back, he saw Lily and Ben playing with his shiny things. He was very angry.
+
+"Hey, you little thieves!" he shouted. "Give me back my shiny things!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They dropped the shiny things and ran away. They ran to their house and told their mom what happened.
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "Don't worry, my loves. You did nothing wrong. The shiny things were not his. He was a bad man. I will call the police and they will take him away."
+

+
+When they came back, they saw a big dog in the sandbox. The dog was digging and barking. He saw the sand cake and thought it was a bone. He bit it and broke it. He scattered the shells and stones. He made a big mess.
+
+Mira and Sam were very sad. They cried and shouted. They said to the dog, "Go away, bad dog! You ruined our sand cake! We worked hard on it!"
+
+The dog wagged his tail and licked his lips. He did not understand. He thought they wanted to play with him. He jumped and ran around them. He knocked them over and licked their faces.
+
+Mira and Sam stopped crying. They laughed and giggled. They said to the dog, "OK, OK, you are a silly dog. You can play with us. But next time, don't eat our sand cake!"

+
+One day, they saw a new car in the toy store. It was big and shiny and had a siren. They both wanted it very much. They asked their mom to buy it for them, but she said no. She said they had enough cars already and they should be happy with what they had.
+
+Ben and Sam were not happy. They started to worry. What if someone else bought the car? What if they never saw it again? They decided to save their money and buy it themselves.

+
+After a few weeks, they had enough money to buy the car. They ran to the toy store with their mom. They were very excited. They looked for the car on the shelf, but they could not find it.

+
+Ben and Sam were very sad. They started to cry. They had worked so hard and now they had nothing. Their mom hugged them and said she was sorry. She said they could buy another toy or save their money for later. She said they should not finish their hope or their fun.

They thought it looked fun and cool. They asked their mom if they could buy it. She said yes. She said they had enough money and they deserved a treat.
+
+Ben and Sam smiled. They bought the train set and took it home. They opened the box and set up the tracks. They played with the train and made happy noises. They shared the train and took turns.

+
+Lily was very sad and angry. She cried and said, "No, Max! These are my prints. You are bad and mean. You broke the law. The law is you do not hurt other people's things."
+
+Max did not care. He said, "I do not know the law. I do what I want. You are a baby and you cry. You are not wise. You are foolish."
+
+Lily ran to her mom. She told her what Max did. Mom was very mad. She said, "Max, you are in trouble. You did a wrong thing. You hurt Lily and her prints.

+
+"Sure, honey. Let me help you get on the swing first." Mom said.

+Mom lifted Lily and put her on the swing. She held the swing and pushed it gently. Lily felt the wind on her face and the sun on her hair. She smiled and laughed.
+
+"Higher, mom, higher!" Lily said.
+
+Mom pushed the swing harder and Lily went higher and higher. She felt like she was flying. She was very happy.
+
+Max watched Lily and wanted to join her. He ran to the swing and barked. He jumped and tried to catch the swing with his mouth. He missed and fell on the grass. He got up and tried again.
+
+"Max, no! You can't catch the swing. You will get hurt." Mom said.
+
+But Max did not listen. He was too excited. He jumped and caught the swing with his paw. He pulled the swing with his paw and made it stop. Lily was surprised and scared. She felt the swing stop and fall down. She screamed.
+

+Max let go of the swing and wagged his tail. He thought he was helping Lily. He licked her face and barked. Lily was angry and sad. She cried.
+
+"Max, you are a bad dog. You ruined my fun. You made me fall. Go away!" Lily said.
+
+Max did not understand. He thought Lily was playing with him. He tilted his head and looked at her with his big, light eyes. He wanted to make her happy. He brought her a ball and dropped it on her lap. He hoped she would throw it for him.

+
+Lily smiled and wiped her tears. She picked up the ball and threw it for Max. He ran and fetched it and brought it back to her. They played and played until they were tired.
+
+Mom watched Lily and Max and smiled. She was glad they were friends again. She said.
+
+"Come on, Lily and Max. It's time to go home. You had a lot of fun today." Mom said.

+Ben and Mia smile and nod. They take the new crayon and paper and sit next to each other. They draw a big red car and a big red flower. They share their crayons and have fun. They are happy.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play dress up. They have many hats and clothes and shoes. They also have a big box of pens. They use the pens to draw on paper and on their faces.
+
+One day, Sara finds a fancy hat in the box. It is red and shiny and has a feather on it. She puts it on her head and says, "Look at me, Ben! I am a queen!"
+
+Ben looks at Sara and laughs. He says, "You are not a queen, Sara. You are a clown! You have pen on your nose and your cheeks!"
+
+Sara feels sad. She does not want to be a clown. She wants to be a queen. She says, "No, Ben. I am a queen. You are a clown. You have pen on your ears and your chin!"
+
+Ben feels angry. He does not want to be a clown. He wants to be a king. He says, "No, Sara. I am a king. You are a clown. You have pen on your eyes and your mouth!"
+
+Sara and Ben start to fight. They pull each other's hats and clothes and shoes. They also pull each other's pens. The pens break and the ink spills on the floor and on their hands.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see. She sees Sara and Ben and the mess. She says, "Oh, no! What have you done? You are both clowns! You have pen all over you and the room!"
+
+Sara and Ben stop fighting. They look at Mom and then at each other. They see that they are both clowns. They have pen all over them and the room. They feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We were playing dress up. We did not mean to make a mess."
+
+Mom says, "It's okay, Sara and Ben. I know you were playing dress up. But you should not fight or break the pens. They are not toys. They are for writing and drawing. And you should not wear the fancy hat. It is mine. It is for special occasions."
+
+Sara and Ben say, "We are sorry, Mom. We will not fight or break the pens again. And we will not wear the fancy hat again. Can we help you clean the mess?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, you can help me clean the mess. And then you can wash your faces and hands. And then you can wear your own hats and clothes and shoes. And then you can play something else."
+
+Sara and Ben say, "Okay, Mom. Thank you, Mom. We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom says, "I love you, too, Sara and Ben. You are my twins. You are not clowns. You are my queen and my king."
+Lily liked to visit her grandpa every week. He lived in a small house with a big garden. He always had a smile for her and a story to tell. He walked with a cane, because his legs were old and hurt. Lily loved to hold his hand and listen to his voice.
+
+One day, Lily asked him, "Grandpa, what is that picture on the wall?"
+
+Grandpa looked at the picture and sighed. It was a picture of him and grandma, when they were young and happy. They were holding hands and looking at a distant mountain.
+
+"That is me and grandma, Lily. We went to the mountain for our honeymoon. It was the best time of our lives. Do you know what a honeymoon is?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not know that word.
+
+"A honeymoon is when two people who love each other go on a special trip, just for them. We loved each other very much, Lily. But grandma is gone now. She got sick and went to heaven. I miss her every day."
+
+Lily felt sad for grandpa. She hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, grandpa. I love you."
+
+Grandpa hugged her back and said, "I love you too, Lily. You remind me of grandma. You have her eyes and her smile. She would be proud of you."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Can you tell me a story about grandma and the mountain, grandpa?"
+
+Grandpa nodded and said, "Of course, Lily. Let me tell you a story. It was a long time ago, but I remember it like it was yesterday..."
+Lily likes to play with her pink tea set. She has a pink pot, four pink cups, and four pink plates. She puts them on a pink mat on the floor. She invites her teddy bear, her doll, her cat, and her mom to have tea with her.
+
+She fills the pot with water from the sink. She pours some water into each cup. She pretends to add sugar and milk. She gives a cup to each of her guests. She says, "Here you go, teddy. Here you go, doll. Here you go, cat. Here you go, mom. Enjoy your tea!"
+
+She sips her tea and makes a sound with her mouth. She says, "Mmm, this is good tea. Do you like it, teddy?" She makes a sound for teddy. She says, "Yes, I do, Lily. Thank you for inviting me." She does the same for doll, cat, and mom. She makes them talk and sound happy.
+
+She eats a cookie from a pink plate. She offers some to her guests. She says, "Would you like a cookie, teddy?" She makes a sound for teddy. She says, "Yes, please, Lily. They look yummy." She does the same for doll, cat, and mom. She makes them eat and sound full.
+
+She smiles and says, "This is a fun tea party. I love you, teddy. I love you, doll. I love you, cat. I love you, mom." She hugs each of them and makes a sound for them. She says, "We love you, too, Lily. You are a good host." She feels happy and warm. She says, "Let's do this again soon."
+Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant seeds. They had a big box of bulbs that they wanted to grow into flowers. Sara picked a yellow bulb and Ben picked a red one.
+
+"Let's plant them here," Sara said, pointing to a spot near the fence.
+
+"OK," Ben said, and they dug two holes with their shovels.
+
+But then, a big dog came running from the other side of the fence. It barked and jumped and scared Sara and Ben. They dropped their bulbs and ran away.
+
+The dog saw the bulbs and thought they were balls. It grabbed them with its mouth and ran away too.
+
+Sara and Ben were very sad. They had lost their bulbs and their flowers.
+
+"Bad dog!" Sara cried. "He took our bulbs!"
+
+"Maybe he didn't know," Ben said. "Maybe he thought they were for him."
+
+Sara looked at Ben. She was still angry, but she also felt sorry for the dog. Maybe he was lonely and wanted to play.
+
+"Do you think he will come back?" she asked.
+
+"Maybe," Ben said. "Maybe we can find him and get our bulbs back."
+
+"Or maybe we can give him a new ball," Sara said. "And then he will be our friend."
+
+Sara and Ben smiled at each other. They decided to forgive the dog. They went inside and asked their mom for a new ball. They hoped the dog would like it.
+
+They also hoped their bulbs would grow into powerful flowers. They wanted to see them bloom in the spring.
+Tim and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with cars and trucks. One day, they went to the store with Mom. Mom wanted to buy some food and clothes.
+
+At the store, Tim and Sam saw a big pile of balls. They wanted to play with them. They ran to the pile and started to throw the balls. They did not listen to Mom, who told them to stop.
+
+Suddenly, the floor shook. The balls rolled everywhere. The shelves fell down. The lights went out. It was an earthquake!
+
+Tim and Sam were scared. They cried and looked for Mom. Mom found them and hugged them. She said, "It's okay, boys. The earthquake is over. We are safe."
+
+Tim and Sam felt embarrassed. They had made a big mess. They said sorry to Mom and to the store people. They helped to pick up the balls and the shelves. They learned to be careful and listen at the store.
+Sara and Ben are playing with their dolls. Sara has a doll with long, yellow hair. Ben has a doll with short, black hair. They make their dolls talk to each other.
+
+"Hello, I am Anna. I like your hair. It is very yellow," Sara's doll says.
+
+"Hello, I am Leo. I like your hair too. It is very black," Ben's doll says.
+
+They blink their eyes and smile at each other.
+
+Suddenly, a big dog runs into the room. It is Sara and Ben's dog, Max. Max likes to play, but he does not know how to be gentle. He sees the dolls and thinks they are toys. He jumps on them and grabs them with his mouth. He shakes them and makes them fly in the air.
+
+"Max, no! Stop! You are crazy!" Sara and Ben shout.
+
+They try to get their dolls back, but Max is too fast and strong. He runs around the room, making a mess. He knocks over a lamp, a chair, and a table. He rips the hair off the dolls and scatters it everywhere.
+
+Sara and Ben are very sad and angry. They love their dolls and they do not want them to be ruined. They cry and scream.
+
+"Max, bad dog! Bad dog!" they say.
+
+Max does not understand why they are mad at him. He thinks he is having fun. He wags his tail and barks.
+
+Then, their mom comes into the room. She sees the chaos and the broken dolls. She is shocked and upset.
+
+"What happened here? Who did this?" she asks.
+
+Sara and Ben point at Max. Max looks guilty and lowers his head.
+
+"Max, you are in big trouble. You cannot play with the dolls. They are not yours. They are Sara and Ben's. You hurt them and made them sad. You have to say sorry," mom says.
+
+Max whines and licks Sara and Ben's faces. He tries to say sorry, but he can only make noises.
+
+Sara and Ben hug Max and forgive him. They know he did not mean to be bad. He is just a silly dog.
+
+Mom helps them clean up the room and fix the dolls. She gives them new hair and clothes. She tells them to be careful and keep their dolls away from Max.
+
+They thank mom and play with their dolls again. They make them say nice things to each other.
+
+"I am sorry for your hair. It is still very yellow," Sara's doll says.
+
+"I am sorry for your hair too. It is still very black," Ben's doll says.
+
+They blink their eyes and smile at each other.
+Lila was shy. She did not like to talk to new people. She liked to play with her dolls and her books. But today, her mom said they had to go to a big party. There would be many people there, and Lila felt scared.
+
+"Mom, do I have to go?" Lila asked.
+
+"Yes, sweetie, you do. It is your aunt's birthday, and she wants to see you. Don't worry, you will have fun. There will be cake and games and balloons. And you can bring your favorite doll with you." Mom said.
+
+Lila nodded, but she still felt shy. She put on her pink dress and her shoes. She took her doll and got in the car with mom. They drove to the party. When they got there, Lila saw many people. Some of them she knew, like her aunt and her cousins. Some of them she did not know, like her aunt's friends and their kids. They all said hello to Lila, but she did not say anything back. She just held her doll and hid behind mom.
+
+Mom took Lila to the table where the cake was. It was a big cake, with candles and frosting and sprinkles. Lila liked cake, but she did not want to eat it with so many people around. She saw a plate with a slice of cake on it. It looked yummy, but it was not hers.
+
+"Can I have some cake, mom?" Lila whispered.
+
+"Of course, honey. But you have to ask your aunt first. She is the one who made the cake. She will be happy to give you some." Mom said.
+
+Lila looked at her aunt. She was smiling and talking to her friends. She seemed nice, but Lila was shy. She did not want to ask her aunt for cake. She wanted to take the plate that was already there.
+
+"Mom, can I just take this plate?" Lila asked.
+
+"No, sweetie, you can't. That is not polite. That plate belongs to someone else. You have to ask your aunt for your own plate. She will permit you to have some cake, I promise." Mom said.
+
+Lila felt sad. She wanted the cake, but she did not want to talk to her aunt. She wished she could go home and play with her dolls and her books. She did not like the party. She did not like the people. She did not like being shy.

+

+
+"No, I don't! You can't catch me!" Kim says, running away with her knife.

+
+Dan and Kim hear the man and stop playing. They look at him and see he is afraid. They feel sorry for him and want to explain.
+
+"Sir, don't be scared. These are not real weapons. They are toys. We are just playing," Dan says, holding his gun.
+
+"Yes, sir. We are sorry. We didn't mean to scare you. We are just having fun," Kim says, holding her knife.
+
+The man looks at them and sees they are telling the truth. He sees they are not bad kids, but good kids. He feels relieved and happy.
+
+"Oh, I see. I'm sorry, too. I didn't know they were toys. You are very brave and creative, but please be careful. Some people might not understand your game and get worried," the man says, smiling.
+
+"OK, sir. We will be careful. Thank you for being nice," Dan and Kim say, smiling back.

+They put their toys away and wave goodbye to the man and his dog. They decide to play something else, something less scary. They are still friends and still have fun.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make a road with a long rug in their room. They pretend the rug is a real road with lanes and signs.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race with their cars. They each choose their fastest car and line them up at the start of the road. They count to three and then push their cars along the road. They want to see who can reach the end of the road first. They are very competitive.
+
+"Go, go, go!" Tim shouts as he pushes his red car. He tries to make his car go faster than Sam's blue car.
+
+"Watch out, watch out, watch out!" Sam warns as he pushes his blue car. He tries to avoid Tim's red car and the other cars on the road.
+
+They are almost at the end of the road. They are very close to each other. They both want to win the race. They push their cars harder and harder.
+
+"Crash!" Their cars collide and fall off the road. They both stop and look at their cars. They are broken and scratched. They are sad and angry.
+
+"You made me crash!" Tim accuses Sam. "You did not stay in your lane!"
+
+"No, you made me crash!" Sam argues back. "You did not shut your mouth!"
+
+They start to fight and yell at each other. They forget about the race and the road. They only care about their cars.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" Their mom calls from the door. She hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the mess and the broken cars. She is not happy.
+
+"What are you doing?" She asks them. "Why are you fighting?"
+
+They try to explain, but they only blame each other. They do not say sorry or share.
+
+Mom shakes her head and sighs. She picks up the broken cars and the rug. She puts them away in a box. She tells them they cannot play with them until they learn to be nice and fair.
+
+Tim and Sam are shocked and sad. They look at the empty floor. They have no cars and no road. They have no fun. They wish they did not fight. They wish they did not crash. They wish they were not so competitive.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bird. The bird has a message on its leg. Lily wants to read the message. Tom is lazy. He does not want to run after the bird.
+
+"Come on, Tom, let's rush to the bird!" Lily says. "Maybe the message is important. Maybe it is from a king or a fairy."
+
+"I don't want to rush. I want to sit and eat my snack," Tom says. "The message is not for us. It is for someone else. The bird will fly away soon."
+
+Lily does not listen to Tom. She runs after the bird. She is fast and smart. She catches the bird and takes the message. She opens the message and reads it. It says: "You are brave and kind. You have won a prize. Go to the big tree and find your gift."

+
+"Yes, but you have to be careful. You have to wait for the green light. And you have to hold my hand. Do you understand?" Mom says.

+Ben did not want to surrender. He liked hiding. He crawled out from under the bench and ran away. He saw a big slide and climbed up. He thought Sara could not catch him there. He stuck out his tongue and said, "You can't get me, Sara! I won't surrender!"

+Anna nodded. She followed Tom to the pond. They stepped on the ice and felt it crack under their feet.
+
+"Uh-oh, this ice is not strong," Anna said. "We should go back."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He wanted to slide more. He ran on the ice and slipped. He fell down and hurt his knee.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried. "This ice is harsh! It cut my knee!"
+
+Anna ran to him and helped him up. She saw blood on his knee and felt sorry for him.
+
+"I told you, Tom, this ice is not good," Anna said. "You should have listened to me. I know about ice. My dad told me ice can be dangerous."
+
+Tom nodded. He was sorry he did not listen to Anna. He learned his lesson.
+
+"Come on, let's go home," Anna said. "We can play something else. Maybe we can make a snowman."
+
+Tom agreed. He limped with Anna to their houses. They said goodbye and hugged.
+
+"Thank you, Anna, for being my friend," Tom said.
+
+"Thank you, Tom, for being my friend too," Anna said.
+
+They smiled and went inside. They were happy to have each other. They knew they would play again soon.
+Ben and Mia liked to pretend they were flying in an aeroplane. They used a big cardboard box as their plane and made noises with their mouths. Vroom, vroom, vroom!
+
+One day, they saw a real aeroplane in the sky. It was white and shiny and had wings and a tail. It made a loud noise as it flew over their house. Ben and Mia looked up and waved.
+
+"Hello, aeroplane!" they shouted. "We are flying too!"
+
+The aeroplane did not wave back. It did not say anything. It just kept flying away.
+
+Ben and Mia were confused. Why did the aeroplane not talk to them? Did it not see them? Did it not like them?
+
+They asked their mum, who was watching them from the window.
+
+"Mum, why did the aeroplane not talk to us?" they asked.
+
+Mum smiled and hugged them.
+
+"The aeroplane did not talk to you because it is not alive, my darlings," she said. "It is a machine that people use to travel far away. It cannot hear you or see you or wave to you. But it is very nice that you pretended to fly with it. You have such big imaginations!"
+
+Ben and Mia nodded. They understood. They still liked to pretend they were flying in an aeroplane, but they knew it was different from a real one. They also liked to pretend they were talking to birds and clouds and stars. They had a lot of fun with their pretend friends.
+Anna loved pandas. She had a big panda toy that she hugged every night. She also had many books and pictures of pandas. She wanted to see a real panda very much.
+
+One day, her mom and dad told her they had a surprise for her. They took her to the zoo, where there were many animals. Anna saw lions, monkeys, elephants, and giraffes. She was very happy, but she still looked for pandas.
+
+Then, she saw a sign that said "Panda House". She ran to the door and asked her mom and dad to go inside. They said yes and followed her. Inside, there was a big glass window, and behind it, there was a black and white panda. He was eating bamboo and looked very soft and cute.
+
+Anna was so excited. She wanted to say hello to the panda. She went closer to the window and waved her hand. She said, "Hi, panda! I like you very much. You are my favorite animal. Can you come here and play with me?"
+
+But the panda did not look at her. He was very shy. He hid behind a rock and did not move. Anna was sad. She tried again and again to get his attention, but he did not respond. She did not understand why he did not want to be her friend.
+
+Her mom and dad hugged her and explained that pandas were very shy animals. They did not like loud noises or strangers. They said that maybe the panda was scared of her, or maybe he just wanted to be alone. They said that she should respect his feelings and not bother him too much.
+
+Anna nodded. She understood that the panda had his own way of being happy. She still liked him very much, but she did not want to make him unhappy. She said, "Bye, panda. I hope you have a good day. Maybe next time you will want to play with me."
+
+She smiled and left the panda house. She still had many other animals to see and enjoy. She was glad that she had seen a real panda, even if he was shy. She knew that he was special and beautiful, just like her panda toy.
+Anna and Ben love to watch soccer on TV. They are big fans of the blue team. They wear blue shirts and hats and cheer loudly when the blue team scores a goal.
+
+Today is a special day. It is the final game of the season. The blue team is playing against the red team. The winner will get a big trophy and a lot of praise. Anna and Ben are very excited and nervous.
+
+They sit on the couch with their dad and watch the game. The blue team plays very well. They run fast, pass the ball, and shoot at the goal. The red team tries to stop them, but they are not as good. The blue team scores three goals and the red team scores none.
+
+"Yay! The blue team wins!" Anna and Ben shout. They jump up and down and hug their dad. "We are so proud of them! They are the best!"
+
+Their dad smiles and says, "Yes, they are. They worked hard and played fair. They deserve to celebrate. How about we make some popcorn and cake and have a party?"
+
+Anna and Ben agree. They run to the kitchen and help their dad make the snacks. They find some blue balloons and streamers and decorate the living room. They put on some music and dance and sing. They have a lot of fun.
+
+They are happy fans of the blue team. They celebrate their victory with their dad. They have a brown cake with blue frosting and candles. They make a wish and blow them out. They wish for the blue team to keep playing well and to make them proud. They are a happy family.
+Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play doctor and patient. They have a toy kit with a stethoscope, a bandage and a syringe. They take turns to be the doctor and the patient.
+
+One day, Tim says, "Kim, you are the patient today. You have a weird pain in your tummy. I need to do an operation on you."
+
+Kim says, "OK, Tim. But will it hurt?"
+
+Tim says, "No, it will not hurt. I will be very gentle. You just need to lie down on the couch and relax."
+
+Kim lies down on the couch and Tim puts the stethoscope on her chest. He listens to her heart and says, "Your heart is fine. Now I need to check your tummy."
+
+He moves the stethoscope to her tummy and says, "Hmm, I hear something strange. I think you have a bug in your tummy. I need to take it out."
+
+He takes the syringe and pretends to inject Kim's tummy. He says, "This will make you sleepy. Don't worry, I will help you."
+
+Kim closes her eyes and pretends to be asleep. Tim takes the bandage and wraps it around her tummy. He says, "There, I did it. I took out the bug. You will feel better soon."
+
+He kisses her on the cheek and says, "You are a brave patient, Kim. I love you."
+
+Kim opens her eyes and smiles. She says, "Thank you, Tim. You are a good doctor. I love you too."
+
+They hug and laugh. They are happy. They like to play doctor and patient.
+Mia and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big fire truck with red lights and loud noises. They run to the fence to watch.
+
+"Wow, look at the fire truck!" Ben says. "It is so big and fast!"
+
+"Yes, and look at the firemen!" Mia says. "They are wearing helmets and coats and boots. They are brave!"
+
+The fire truck stops near a house. Smoke is coming out of the window. The firemen get out and spray water on the fire. They also bring a ladder and a hose.
+
+"Look, there is a cat on the roof!" Mia says. "It is scared of the smoke and the fire. Poor cat!"
+
+One of the firemen climbs the ladder and grabs the cat. He puts it in a cage and brings it down. He gives it to a lady who is crying.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" the lady says. "You saved my cat! You are a hero!"
+
+She hugs the fireman and gives him a kiss on the cheek. The fireman smiles and blushes.
+
+"Wow, she kissed him!" Ben says. "Do you think he likes it?"
+
+"I don't know," Mia says. "Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't. Maybe he feels dizzy."
+
+"Dizzy? Why dizzy?" Ben asks.
+
+"Because kisses make you dizzy," Mia says. "My mommy told me so. She said that when she kisses daddy, she feels dizzy and happy and warm."
+
+"Really?" Ben says. "That sounds nice. Do you want to try?"
+
+Mia thinks for a moment. She likes Ben. He is her best friend. He is funny and kind and smart. She nods and smiles.
+
+"Okay, let's try," she says.
+
+They lean closer and touch their lips. They feel a tickle and a tingle. They giggle and pull away.
+
+"How do you feel?" Ben asks.
+
+"I feel dizzy and happy and warm," Mia says. "How about you?"
+
+"Me too," Ben says. "That was fun. Can we do it again?"
+
+"Sure," Mia says. "But don't tell anyone. It's our secret."
+
+They kiss again and hug. They watch the fire truck drive away. They are happy.
+Tom was a boy who liked to play with his friends. He liked to run, jump, and kick a ball. He did not like to listen to his mom and dad. He did not like to do his chores, or say please and thank you, or share his toys.
+
+One day, he saw an old man walking with a cane. The old man was slow and bent. Tom thought he was funny and crazy. He ran up to the old man and shouted, "Hey, old man, why do you have a cane? Are you a pirate? Are you a wizard? Are you a clown?" He laughed and made faces at the old man.
+
+The old man was sad and angry. He said, "Boy, you are rude and mean. You do not respect your elders. You do not know what a cane is for. A cane helps me walk, because I have a hurt leg. I am not a pirate, or a wizard, or a clown. I am a person, like you. How would you feel if someone made fun of you?"
+
+Tom did not care. He said, "I don't care. You are old and crazy. I am young and smart. I can run and jump and kick a ball. You can't do anything. You are boring and silly." He ran away, leaving the old man alone.
+
+Tom did not know that his mom and dad were watching. They saw what he did and heard what he said. They were very disappointed and angry. They called him and said, "Tom, come here. We need to talk to you. You did a bad thing. You were rude and mean to the old man. You hurt his feelings. You did not mention that you were sorry. You did not mention that you were wrong. You did not mention that you were grateful. You need to learn a lesson."
+
+They took him to the old man's house. They knocked on the door and said, "Hello, sir. We are Tom's parents. We saw what he did and heard what he said. We are very sorry. He was rude and mean. He needs to apologize to you. He needs to learn to respect you. He needs to learn what a cane is for."
+
+The old man opened the door and said, "Hello, ma'am and sir. I am glad you came. I accept your apology. I forgive Tom. He is a young boy. He does not know better. He needs to learn. Come in, please. I have something to show you."
+
+He invited them in and showed them his living room. There were many pictures on the wall. There were pictures of him as a young boy, as a soldier, as a teacher, as a father, as a grandfather. There were pictures of him with his wife, his children, his grandchildren, his friends. There were pictures of him doing many things. He said, "These are my pictures. These are my memories. These are my stories. I have lived a long and good life. I have done many things. I have loved many people. I have helped many people. I have a cane, because I have a hurt leg. But I am not old and crazy. I am not boring and silly. I am a person, like you."
+
+Tom looked at the pictures. He saw the old man's face in them. He saw his smile, his eyes, his hair. He saw his medals, his books, his toys. He saw his family, his friends, his students. He felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "Sir, I am sorry. I was rude and mean. I hurt your feelings. I did not know who you were. I did not know what you did. I did not know what a cane was for. I was wrong. You are not old and crazy. You are not boring and silly. You are a person, like me. You are a brave and smart and kind person. You have a lot to teach me. Can you please forgive me?"
+
+The old man smiled and said, "Of course, I forgive you. You are a young boy. You have a lot to learn. You have a lot to do. You have a lot to give. You can be a brave and smart and kind person, too. You just need to respect others, and listen to them, and mention that you are sorry when you make a mistake. That is how you grow and learn. That is how you make friends and memories. That is how you live a good life. Come, sit with me. I will tell you some of my stories. Maybe you will like them. Maybe you will learn from them. Maybe you will mention them to others."
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, sir. Thank you, sir. I would like that. I would like to hear your stories. I would like to learn from
+Tim and Tom were brothers who liked to play near the sea. They saw a big boat with a white sail and a red flag. They wanted to go on the boat and pretend to be sailors.
+
+"Can we go on the boat, please?" Tim asked their mom.
+
+"No, you can't. The boat is not ours and it is not safe. You might fall in the water or get lost. Stay here with me and play with your toys." Mom said.
+
+But Tim and Tom did not listen to mom. They waited until she was busy talking to a friend and ran to the boat. They climbed on the boat and looked around. They saw a rope, a wheel, a map and a hat. They put on the hat and took the rope and the wheel. They felt like real sailors.
+
+"Look, I can steer the boat!" Tom said, turning the wheel.
+
+"Look, I can make the sail go up and down!" Tim said, pulling the rope.
+
+They did not see that the boat was moving away from the shore. They did not hear mom calling their names. They did not notice the dark clouds and the strong wind. They were having too much fun.
+
+Soon, the boat was in the middle of the sea. The waves were big and scary. The wind was loud and cold. The boat was rocking and shaking. Tim and Tom were scared and sorry. They wanted to go back to mom. They wanted to go back to land. They started to cry and shiver.
+
+"Help! Help!" They shouted, but no one heard them.
+
+The boat kept drifting away, farther and farther, until it was out of sight. Tim and Tom never saw mom again. They never saw land again. They were lost at sea.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. But today it is raining. They are sad.
+
+"Can we go out?" Anna asks her mom.
+
+"No, it is too wet. You will get sick," mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben look out the window. They see a big puddle. They want to jump in it.
+
+"Look, mom, a puddle!" Ben says.
+
+"I see it, but you can't go out," mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben stare at the puddle. They see a frog. The frog jumps in the puddle. It makes a splash.
+
+"Wow, a frog!" Anna says.
+
+"It is green and slimy," Ben says.
+
+They watch the frog. They laugh.
+
+"Can we go out now?" Anna asks again.
+
+Mom thinks. She smiles.
+
+"OK, but you have to wear your boots and coats. And take an umbrella," mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They put on their boots and coats. They take an umbrella. They go out.
+
+They run to the puddle. They see the frog. They say hello.
+
+"Hello, frog!" Anna says.
+
+"Hello, frog!" Ben says.
+
+The frog says ribbit. It jumps out of the puddle. It hops away.
+
+"Bye, frog!" Anna says.
+
+"Bye, frog!" Ben says.
+
+They jump in the puddle. They make a splash. They hold the umbrella. They are wet. But they are happy. They have fun.
+Tim and Sue went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and giraffes. They were very happy and excited.
+
+Then they came to the ostrich pen. The ostrich was a big bird with long legs and a long neck. It had black and white feathers and a small head. Tim and Sue wanted to see its face, but the ostrich was hiding it in the sand.
+
+"Why is the ostrich doing that?" Tim asked Mom.
+
+Mom said, "The ostrich is shy. Sometimes it thinks that if it puts its head in the sand, no one can see it. But that is not true. We can still see its body."
+
+Tim and Sue thought that was funny. They laughed and said, "Silly ostrich, we can see you!"
+
+The ostrich heard them and lifted its head. It looked at Tim and Sue with big eyes. It felt ashamed that they saw it hiding. It wanted to run away, but it could not. It was in a pen.
+
+The ostrich said, "Please don't laugh at me. I am scared of people. They are loud and big and strange. I feel safer in the sand."
+
+Tim and Sue felt sorry for the ostrich. They stopped laughing and said, "We are sorry, ostrich. We did not mean to hurt your feelings. We are not loud or big or strange. We are just kids. We like animals. We want to be your friends."
+
+The ostrich felt a little better. It said, "Thank you, kids. You are kind and nice. Maybe you can be my friends. But please don't come too close. I need some space."
+
+Tim and Sue nodded. They said, "OK, ostrich. We understand. We will give you some space. But we will also wave to you and say hello. Maybe one day you will not be so shy."
+
+The ostrich smiled. It said, "Maybe one day. Thank you, kids. You are good friends."
+
+Tim and Sue smiled back. They said, "You are welcome, ostrich. You are a good friend too."
+
+They waved to the ostrich and said goodbye. They went to see other animals, but they did not forget the ostrich. They learned that sometimes animals need to hide, and sometimes they need to reveal. They learned to be respectful and gentle. They learned to be good friends.
+Lila and Tom were playing with a bow and arrow in the garden. They liked to pretend they were brave hunters. Lila had a big bow and Tom had a small one. They took turns shooting at a target on the fence.
+
+"Look, I hit the red spot!" Lila said, pointing at her arrow.
+
+"Wow, you are good!" Tom said. "Can I try your bow?"
+
+"OK, but be careful. It is very strong." Lila said. She gave her bow to Tom and took his.
+
+Tom tried to pull the string of the big bow, but it was too hard. He could not fit the arrow on the string. He felt angry and sad.
+
+"I want to use the big bow!" he shouted. "It is not fair!"
+
+He threw the small bow on the ground and grabbed the big bow from Lila. He pushed her away and ran to the target.
+
+"Tom, stop! You don't know how to use it!" Lila cried. She ran after him.
+
+Tom reached the target and tried to shoot the arrow. But he did not aim well. The arrow flew past the target and hit a window. The window broke with a loud noise.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom said. He dropped the bow and looked at the window. He saw a face behind the glass. It was his mom. She looked very angry and scared.
+
+"Tom, what have you done?" she yelled. "You could have hurt someone! Come here right now!"
+
+Tom felt very bad. He knew he had done something wrong. He wished he had listened to Lila. He wished he had played with the small bow. He wished he had been clean and nice. He walked slowly to his mom. He was in big trouble.
+Lily and Ben were very excited to see the parade. They put on their hats and coats and went with Mom and Dad to the park. There were many people and many noises. Lily and Ben saw big balloons, colorful floats, funny clowns, and loud bands. They waved and cheered and clapped.
+
+"Look, Ben, there's a lion!" Lily said, pointing to a float with a big yellow lion on it.
+
+"Wow, he's so big and strong!" Ben said, admiring the lion.
+
+But then, the lion started to roar and shake his head. He looked angry and scared. He tried to break free from the ropes that held him on the float. The people around him screamed and ran away.
+
+"What's wrong with the lion?" Lily asked, feeling sorry for him.
+
+"Maybe he's thirsty," Ben said, remembering what Mom had told him about animals.
+
+"Can we give him some water?" Lily asked, looking at her bottle of juice.
+
+"Maybe we can," Ben said, feeling brave. He took Lily's hand and they walked towards the float. They dodged the crowds and the clowns and the bands. They reached the float and saw the lion up close. He was still roaring and shaking, but he also looked sad and tired.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Lion," Ben said softly. "We're not here to hurt you. We're here to help you. Do you want some water?"
+
+The lion stopped roaring and looked at Ben and Lily. He saw their friendly faces and their bottle of juice. He nodded his head and licked his lips.
+
+"Here you go, Mr. Lion," Lily said, handing him the bottle. "You can drink this. It's yummy and sweet."
+
+The lion took the bottle and drank the juice. He felt the cool liquid soothe his throat and calm his nerves. He smiled and purred. He gave the bottle back to Lily and licked her hand.
+
+"Thank you, little ones," the lion said. "You are very kind and compassionate. You made me feel better."
+
+"You're welcome, Mr. Lion," Ben and Lily said. "We're glad you're happy."
+
+The lion hugged them gently and then lay down on the float. He closed his eyes and relaxed. Ben and Lily waved goodbye and went back to their parents. They told them what had happened and how they had helped the lion.
+
+Mom and Dad were very proud of them. They hugged them and praised them.
+
+"You are very brave and compassionate, too," Mom said. "You did a good thing today."
+
+"Yes, you did," Dad said. "You made a new friend and you made the parade more fun."
+
+Ben and Lily smiled and cuddled with their parents. They watched the rest of the parade and enjoyed the sights and sounds. They felt happy and warm. They had a wonderful day.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play soccer with other kids. They have a big game today. They want to win the trophy.
+
+They run and kick the ball. They try hard. The other team is good too. The game is close. Tom and Lily are tired.
+
+"Come on, Lily, we can do it!" Tom says. He passes the ball to Lily. Lily sees a chance. She shoots the ball. It goes in the goal. They score!
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They hug and jump. The whistle blows. The game is over. They win the trophy!
+
+They hold the trophy high. They smile. The other kids clap and cheer. It is loud. Tom and Lily are proud.
+
+They care for each other. They are good friends. They share the trophy. They have fun. They love soccer.
+Tim and Mia are playing with blocks. They like to build towers and houses and cars. Tim has a big red block that he wants to put on top of his tower. He reaches up and tries to snap it on.
+
+"Be careful, Tim!" Mia says. "Your tower is very high. It might fall down."
+
+Tim does not listen. He pushes the red block hard. But the tower is not strong enough. It wobbles and shakes and then falls down with a loud crash. Blocks fly everywhere. Tim and Mia jump back.
+
+"Oh no!" Tim says. "My tower is broken. I worked hard on it."
+
+"I'm sorry, Tim," Mia says. "But I told you to be careful. Maybe you can build it again. Or we can build something else together."
+
+Tim is sad and angry. He does not want to build anything else. He wants his tower to stay the way it was. He picks up the red block and throws it at Mia. It hits her arm and hurts her.
+
+"Ow!" Mia says. "That's not nice, Tim. Why did you do that? You hurt me."
+
+Tim feels bad. He did not mean to hurt Mia. He was just mad at his tower. He says sorry to Mia and gives her a hug.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mia," he says. "I was mad at my tower, not at you. You are my friend. I don't want to hurt you."
+
+Mia hugs him back. She is not mad at Tim anymore. She knows he is sorry. She says it's okay and shows him her arm. It has a small red mark, but it is not bleeding.
+
+"Look, Tim," she says. "It's not a big hurt. It will go away soon. But you have to be more careful with your blocks. They can hurt people if you throw them."
+
+Tim nods. He understands. He says he will be more careful with his blocks. He asks Mia if she still wants to play with him.
+
+"Of course I do, Tim," Mia says. "You are my friend. Friends play together. But let's build something else, okay? Something that won't fall down."
+
+Tim agrees. He says he has an idea. He tells Mia they can build a big bridge with their blocks. A bridge that can hold cars and trains and people. A bridge that is strong and safe and fun.
+
+Mia likes the idea. She says it sounds great. They smile and pick up their blocks. They start to build their bridge. They are careful and gentle with their blocks. They snap them together and make a long and wide bridge. They are happy and proud of their bridge. They play with their cars and trains and people on their bridge. They have fun. They are friends.
+Anna and Ben were very happy. They were going on vacation with Mom and Dad. They packed their bags and got in the car. They drove for a long time until they saw the big lake. It was blue and shiny.
+
+"Look, Anna, look! The lake is so pretty!" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, Ben, it is! Can we go swimming?" Anna asked.
+
+"Of course, sweeties. But first, we have to check in at the cabin. Come on, let's go." Mom said.
+
+They got out of the car and walked to the cabin. It was small and cozy. There was a fireplace and a sofa and a table. Mom and Dad put their bags in the bedroom. Anna and Ben ran to the window and looked at the lake.
+
+"Wow, it's so big! Can we go now, please?" Anna begged.
+
+"Okay, okay. But you have to wear your swimsuits and your jackets. It's cold outside." Dad said.
+
+Anna and Ben put on their swimsuits and their jackets. They followed Mom and Dad to the lake. There was a dock and a boat and some ducks. Anna and Ben ran to the edge of the dock and jumped into the water.
+
+"Yay, this is fun!" Ben shouted.
+
+But Anna did not shout. She screamed. The water was very cold. It made her shiver and cry.
+
+"Help, help! I don't like it! It's too cold!" Anna screamed.
+
+Mom and Dad heard her scream and ran to the dock. They saw Anna in the water and Ben next to her. They quickly pulled them out and wrapped them in towels.
+
+"Oh, Anna, I'm sorry. The water is colder than we thought. Are you okay?" Mom asked.
+
+Anna nodded. She was still crying. She hugged Mom and Dad.
+
+"I'm sorry, too. I didn't know it was so cold. I wanted to have fun." Ben said.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. You didn't mean to. But next time, we have to be more careful. The lake is not like the pool. It can be very cold." Dad said.
+
+Anna and Ben said they were sorry. They said they loved Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad said they loved them, too. They said they were still on vacation and they could still have fun. They said they could go for a boat ride or feed the ducks or play by the fireplace. Anna and Ben smiled. They said they liked those ideas. They said they liked the lake, too. But only from the dock.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to pretend they were driving on the road and going to different places. Lily had a pink car and Tom had a blue car.
+
+"Let's go to the park!" Lily said, making her car zoom on the carpet.
+
+"Okay!" Tom said, following her with his car. "But we need a license to drive, right?"
+
+"Yes, we do," Lily said, nodding. "I have a license. See?" She showed him a piece of paper with her name and a picture of a flower on it.
+
+"Wow, that's a nice license!" Tom said, admiring it. "Can I see it?"
+
+"Sure, you can see it, but you can't have it," Lily said, handing him the paper. "It's mine."
+
+Tom looked at the paper and smiled. He liked the flower. He wanted to have a license like that. He had an idea. He took a crayon from his pocket and started to change the paper. He crossed out Lily's name and wrote his name. He also drew a star over the flower.
+
+"Look, now I have a license too!" Tom said, holding up the paper.
+
+Lily gasped when she saw what Tom had done. She felt very angry. He had ruined her license. She snatched the paper from him and tore it in half.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Tom said, frowning. "You can't do that!"
+
+"Yes, I can!" Lily said, throwing the pieces on the floor. "You can't change my license! That's not nice!"
+
+They both started to cry and yell. Their mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the toy cars, the crayon, and the torn paper. She understood what had happened.
+
+"Uh-oh, what's going on here?" she asked, picking up the pieces. "Did you two have a fight?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded, still sobbing. They both pointed at each other and tried to explain.
+
+Mom listened to them and shook her head. She was not happy. She put the pieces of paper in the trash and took the crayon from Tom.
+
+"Listen, both of you," she said, kneeling down. "You can't change someone else's license. That's not respectful. And you can't tear someone else's license. That's not kind. You need to say sorry to each other and share your toys. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other and felt sorry. They nodded and hugged each other.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom said. "I won't change your license again."
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily said. "I won't tear your license again."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them both. She was glad they made up.
+
+"Good, I'm proud of you," she said. "Now, how about we make some new licenses for you? You can choose your own picture and color. Would you like that?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and smiled. They liked that idea. They followed Mom to the kitchen, where she had some paper, scissors, and stickers. They forgot about their fight and had fun making their new licenses. They decided to go to the park later with their toy cars.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the woods. One day, they found a creek with clear water and many fish. They decided to catch some fish with their hands and put them in a bucket.
+
+"Look, I got a big one!" Tom said, holding a fish in his hand.
+
+"Me too!" Sam said, showing his fish.
+
+They were having fun, until they heard a loud roar. It was a bear, and it was angry. It saw the fish in the bucket and wanted to eat them. The bear ran towards Tom and Sam, who dropped their fish and ran away.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom and Sam cried, as they ran towards their home.
+
+But the bear was faster than them, and it caught up with them. It grabbed Tom by his leg and bit him hard. Tom screamed in pain and fear.
+
+"Let go of my brother!" Sam shouted, and threw a stick at the bear. The stick hit the bear in the eye, and it let go of Tom. Sam grabbed Tom's hand and pulled him away from the bear.
+
+They ran as fast as they could, but Tom was bleeding and hurt. He could not run very well. The bear followed them, still angry and hungry.
+
+They reached their home, but the door was locked. Their mom and dad were not there. They had gone to the store, and they had forgotten to leave the key.
+
+"Mom! Dad! Open the door!" Tom and Sam cried, banging on the door.
+
+But no one answered. The bear was getting closer and closer. It roared again, and showed its sharp teeth.
+
+Tom and Sam were scared. They had nowhere to go. They hugged each other and waited for the bear to attack them.
+
+They wished they had not gone to the creek. They wished they had listened to their mom and dad, who had told them not to play in the woods. They were ashamed of being naughty and foolish.
+
+They were sorry for the fish, who had died for nothing.
+
+They were sorry for themselves, who were going to die too.
+Lila and Tom were friends who lived in a large village. They liked to play outside and explore new places. One day, they found a big red door in a wall. They wondered what was behind it.
+
+"Let's open it and see," Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Lila said.
+
+They pushed the door and it opened with a loud creak. They saw a garden with many flowers and trees. They also saw a small house with a chimney.
+
+"Wow, this is pretty," Lila said.
+
+"Maybe someone lives here," Tom said.
+
+They walked into the garden and smelled the flowers. They heard a bird singing on a branch. They felt happy and curious.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a voice.
+
+"Who are you? What are you doing here?" the voice said.
+
+They turned around and saw an old woman standing at the door. She looked angry and scared.
+
+"We are sorry, we just wanted to see the garden," Lila said.
+
+"Well, you can't. This is my garden and my house. You are not welcome here. Go away, go away!" the old woman said.
+
+She slammed the door shut and locked it.
+
+Lila and Tom felt sad and scared. They ran away from the wall and back to the village. They decided not to go near the big red door again. They wondered why the old woman was so mean and lonely.
+Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big truck with many sheep in it. The truck stopped near a farm and the farmer opened the door. The sheep came out and ran to the grass.
+
+"Look, Ben, sheep!" Lila said. "They are so soft and white. Can we touch them?"
+
+Ben nodded. He liked animals. He and Lila ran to the fence and waved at the sheep. Some of the sheep looked at them and made noises. "Baa, baa," they said.
+
+"Hello, sheep," Lila and Ben said. "We are Lila and Ben. Do you want to be our friends?"
+
+The farmer saw the twins and smiled. He walked to them and said, "Hello, Lila and Ben. I'm Mr. Lee. These are my sheep. They are very nice, but you have to be careful. They can bite or kick if they are scared or angry. You can't touch them without my permission."
+
+Lila and Ben felt sad. They wanted to pet the sheep. They looked at Mr. Lee and asked, "Please, Mr. Lee, can we touch the sheep? We will be gentle and kind. We won't hurt them."
+
+Mr. Lee thought for a moment. He saw that Lila and Ben were good children who loved animals. He said, "Okay, but only one sheep. And you have to follow my rules. First, you have to wash your hands. Second, you have to wait for me to pick a sheep that is friendly and calm. Third, you have to stroke the sheep softly and slowly. Do you understand?"
+
+Lila and Ben nodded. They were happy. They washed their hands and waited for Mr. Lee. He picked a sheep that had a black spot on its head. He said, "This is Spot. He is a good sheep. He likes to be petted. You can touch him, but be careful. Don't pull his wool or his ears. Don't make loud noises or sudden movements. And don't go near his mouth or his feet. Do you understand?"
+
+Lila and Ben nodded again. They followed Mr. Lee to Spot and touched him gently. Spot felt soft and warm. He made a happy noise. "Baa, baa," he said.
+
+Lila and Ben smiled. They thanked Mr. Lee and said goodbye to Spot. They waved at the other sheep and ran back to their home. They learned that sheep are nice, but they have to be respected and treated well. They also learned that they have to listen to adults and follow rules when they meet new animals. They were proud of themselves and their new friend.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with their toys. One day, they find a long leather belt in Jen's room. It is brown and shiny.
+
+"Look, I have a snake!" Tom says. He wraps the belt around his arm and makes a hissing sound.
+
+"No, it is not a snake. It is a belt. I can wear it on my dress," Jen says. She tries to take the belt from Tom.
+
+They pull and tug on the belt. They both want to have it. They do not share.
+
+"Let go! It is mine!" Tom shouts.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Jen shouts.
+
+They pull harder and harder. The belt snaps. It breaks in two. Tom and Jen fall to the floor. They both cry.
+
+They look at the belt. It is not long and shiny anymore. It is short and torn. They cannot play with it. They cannot wear it.
+
+They are sad and mad. They do not talk to each other. They do not play together. They lose the belt and their friend. They do not win.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toys on the carpet. They have many toys, but their favorite is the number train. The number train has ten cars, each with a different number on it. Anna and Ben like to count the numbers and make the train go around the carpet.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is the number one car. It is red and small. Can you say one?" Anna asks.
+
+"One!" Ben repeats, holding the car.
+
+"Good, Ben! Now, this is the number two car. It is blue and bigger. Can you say two?" Anna continues.
+
+"Two!" Ben says, grabbing the car.
+
+They go on like this until they reach the number ten car. It is yellow and the biggest of all. Anna and Ben are very proud of their number train. They make it go around the carpet faster and faster, making choo-choo noises.
+
+"Choo-choo! Choo-choo! The number train is going to the station!" Anna says.
+
+"Choo-choo! Choo-choo! The number train is very fun!" Ben agrees.
+
+Suddenly, they hear their mom calling them from the kitchen.
+
+"Anna! Ben! Lunch is ready! Come and eat your delicious soup!" Mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben stop playing and look at each other. They love soup, especially when it is hot and yummy.
+
+"Okay, Mom! We are coming!" Anna says.
+
+"Can we bring the number train, Mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, you can. But be careful not to spill your soup on the carpet, okay?" Mom says.
+
+"Okay, Mom! We will be careful!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They pick up their number train and run to the kitchen. They put the train on the table and sit on their chairs. Mom gives them each a bowl of soup and a spoon. They blow on the soup and taste it. It is delicious!
+
+"Mmm, this soup is very good, Mom! Thank you!" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, thank you, Mom! It is very good!" Ben says.
+
+"You are welcome, my sweeties. I am glad you like it. And I am also glad you are learning your numbers with your number train. You are very smart!" Mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben smile and hug their mom. They eat their soup and talk about their number train. They are very happy.
+Ben liked to question everything. He wanted to know how things worked and why they did what they did. He asked his mom and dad many questions every day. Sometimes they knew the answers, and sometimes they did not.
+
+One day, Ben found a tool in the garage. It was shiny and had a long handle and a round head. He wondered what it was for and how to use it. He asked his dad, who was fixing the car.
+
+"Dad, what is this tool?" Ben said, holding it up.
+
+"That is a hammer, Ben. It is for hitting nails into wood or metal. It is a very useful tool, but you have to be careful with it. It can hurt you or break things if you use it wrong," his dad said.
+
+"Can I try it?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, but only with my supervision. Come, I will show you how to use it safely," his dad said.
+
+He took Ben to a wooden board and gave him a nail and the hammer. He showed him how to hold the nail and the hammer, and how to hit the nail with the hammer until it went into the wood. Ben tried it and felt proud when he made the nail go in.
+
+"Wow, this is fun! Can I do more?" Ben said.
+
+"Sure, but only a few more. Then we have to put the hammer away. It is not a toy, it is a tool," his dad said.
+
+Ben nodded and did a few more nails. He liked using the tool and learning something new. He thought he was very intelligent for doing it. He thanked his dad and gave him a hug.
+
+"I love you, dad. You are the best teacher," he said.
+
+"I love you too, Ben. You are a very curious and smart boy," his dad said.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys on the big rug in the living room. One day, they decided to have a tea party with their dolls and stuffed animals. They set up a small table and chairs on the rug and brought some cups and plates from the kitchen.
+
+"Would you like some tea, Mr. Bear?" Lily asked, pretending to pour from a teapot.
+
+"Yes, please, Lily. You are very kind," Ben said, making his bear talk.
+
+They had a lot of fun, pretending to sip tea and eat cookies. They did not know that Mom had left a real cookie on the counter. It was a tasty cookie, with chocolate chips and nuts. Mom had made it for a special treat, but she had to go to the store for a few minutes.
+
+While Lily and Ben were playing, a big dog came into the house. He smelled the cookie and wanted to eat it. He jumped on the counter and grabbed the cookie with his mouth. Then he saw Lily and Ben on the rug. He thought they were playing with him. He ran towards them, wagging his tail and barking.
+
+"Look out, Lily! It's a dog!" Ben shouted, dropping his bear.
+
+Lily was scared. She did not like dogs. She tried to run away, but the dog was faster. He jumped on her and knocked her down. He licked her face and bit her hair. He also stepped on the table and chairs, breaking them. He made a big mess on the rug.
+
+Lily cried and screamed. Ben tried to help her, but the dog was too big and strong. He also cried and screamed. They wished Mom would come back soon.
+
+The dog did not mean to hurt them. He just wanted to play and eat the cookie. But he did not know how to play nice. He did not know that Lily and Ben did not want to meet him. He did not know that he ruined their tea party. He did not know that he made them very sad.
+Sara and Lily are friends. They like to play dress-up. They have many clothes and hats and shoes. They have fun.
+
+Yesterday, Sara and Lily found a red dress in the closet. It was shiny and pretty. They both wanted to wear it.
+
+"I saw it first!" Sara said. "It is mine!"
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Lily said. "It is mine!"
+
+They pulled and tugged on the dress. They were angry and loud. They did not share.
+
+Mom heard them and came to the closet. She saw the red dress and the girls.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom asked. "Why are you fighting?"
+
+"Sara and Lily both want the red dress. They both say it is theirs. They do not listen to each other." Mom said.
+
+Mom took the red dress and put it away. She said, "You cannot wear the red dress today. You have to learn to share and be kind. Sharing is caring. If you share, you can both have fun. If you fight, you can both be sad. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Lily nodded. They felt sorry. They said sorry to each other. They hugged and smiled. They picked other clothes and hats and shoes. They played dress-up. They had fun. They were happy.
+Tom and Sam were friends. They liked to play with blocks and cars. One day, they wanted to measure how long their cars could go. They found a long tape and put it on the floor.
+
+"Let's have a race!" Tom said. "We can start from here and see who reaches the end of the tape first."
+
+"OK!" Sam said. "But I want to use the red car. It is faster than yours."
+
+"No, I want the red car!" Tom said. "You can have the blue one. It is slower than mine."
+
+They began to fight over the red car. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not share or take turns. They did not listen to each other.
+
+The tape got tangled and ripped. The cars got scratched and broken. Tom and Sam got angry and sad. They stopped playing and went to their own corners. They did not talk to each other.
+
+They felt lonely. They missed their friend. They wished they had not fought over the red car. They wished they had measured their cars together. They wished they had said sorry.
+
+But they did not. They stayed silent and alone. They did not have fun. They did not learn anything.
+
+The end.
+
+Moral: Fighting over things can ruin your friendship. Sharing and taking turns can make you happy. Saying sorry can fix your mistakes.
+Lila and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the garden and look for bugs and flowers. One day, they saw something unusual in the corner of the garden. It was a big, shiny bulb. It was not like the bulbs that grew in the ground and made pretty flowers. It was like the bulbs that gave light in the house.
+
+Lila and Tom were curious. They wanted to see what the bulb could do. They picked it up and carried it to the shed. They found a long wire and a plug. They tried to make the bulb light up, but nothing happened. They were sad.
+
+Then, they heard a voice. It was Lila's mom. She was looking for them. She wanted them to come inside for lunch. Lila and Tom hid the bulb under a blanket. They did not want mom to see it. They whispered to each other.
+
+"Let's come back later and try again," Lila whispered.
+
+"OK, but don't tell anyone," Tom whispered.
+
+They ran to the house and hugged mom. They ate their lunch and pretended nothing was unusual. But they could not wait to go back to the shed and play with the bulb. They wondered what secrets it had.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play with puzzles. One day, Ben brings a new puzzle to Mia's house. It is a puzzle of a big red car.
+
+"Look, Mia, I have a new puzzle. It is very hard. Do you want to try?" Ben says.
+
+"Yes, I like puzzles. Let me see." Mia says. She takes the puzzle box and opens it. She sees many small pieces. She dumps them on the floor.
+
+"Wow, this puzzle has many pieces. How do we start?" Mia asks.
+
+"We start with the edges. They are straight. Then we look for the colors. The car is red. The sky is blue. The grass is green." Ben explains.
+
+"OK, let's do it." Mia says. They start to look for the edge pieces. They find some and put them together. They make a frame for the puzzle.
+
+"Good job, Mia. We have the edges. Now we need the colors." Ben says.
+
+They look for the red pieces. They find some and put them inside the frame. They make part of the car.
+
+"Look, Ben, we have the car. It is big and shiny." Mia says.
+
+"Yes, it is. But we are not done. We need the sky and the grass." Ben says.
+
+They look for the blue pieces. They find some and put them above the car. They make part of the sky.
+
+"Look, Mia, we have the sky. It is bright and clear." Ben says.
+
+"Yes, it is. But we are not done. We need the grass." Mia says.
+
+They look for the green pieces. They find some and put them below the car. They make part of the grass.
+
+"Look, Ben, we have the grass. It is soft and fresh." Mia says.
+
+"Yes, it is. But we are not done. We need one more piece." Ben says.
+
+They look for the last piece. They cannot find it. They look under the box, under the sofa, under the table. They cannot find it.
+
+"Where is the last piece, Ben? We need it to finish the puzzle." Mia says.
+
+"I don't know, Mia. I brought all the pieces. Maybe we lost it." Ben says.
+
+They are sad. They want to finish the puzzle. They want to see the big red car.
+
+"Maybe we can guess where the last piece goes. Maybe we can pretend we have it." Mia says.
+
+"OK, let's try. Where do you think the last piece goes?" Ben says.
+
+Mia looks at the puzzle. She sees a small hole in the sky. She thinks it is the shape of the last piece.
+
+"I think the last piece goes here. It is part of the sky. It is blue." Mia says.
+
+"OK, let's pretend we have it. Let's put it here." Ben says.
+
+They pretend they have the last piece. They put it in the hole. They finish the puzzle.
+
+"Yay, we did it, Ben. We finished the puzzle. It is beautiful." Mia says.
+
+"Yes, we did, Mia. We are smart. We guessed the last piece. It is OK we don't have it. We can still see the big red car." Ben says.
+
+They are happy. They hug each other. They look at the puzzle. They like the big red car. They like puzzles. They like to play together.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big bowl of oranges on the table. Lily liked oranges. She wanted to touch one.
+
+"Can I touch an orange, Mommy?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, you can, but be careful. They are round and can roll away," Mommy said.
+
+Lily reached for an orange. She felt its bumpy skin. She tried to pick it up, but it was too big for her hand. It slipped and rolled off the table. Lily gasped.
+
+"Oops!" Ben said. He ran after the orange. He caught it before it hit the floor. He held it up and smiled.
+
+"I got it, Lily!" Ben said. He gave the orange to Lily. Lily thanked him.
+
+"Can I touch an orange, too?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. Here, take this one. It is smaller and easier to hold," Mommy said. She gave Ben another orange.
+
+Ben touched the orange. He felt its smooth skin. He squeezed it gently. He smelled its sweet scent.
+
+"Oranges are nice," Ben said.
+
+"Yes, they are. And they are good for you, too. Do you want to eat one?" Mommy asked.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. Mommy peeled the oranges for them. She broke them into pieces and put them on a plate.
+
+"Here you go. Enjoy your oranges," Mommy said.
+
+Lily and Ben ate their oranges. They liked the juicy and tangy taste. They licked their fingers and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy. Oranges are yummy," Lily and Ben said.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and find bugs and worms. They saw a big pile of leaves and sticks. They ran to it and started to move them.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a big apple!" Lila said, holding a red fruit.
+
+"Can I see?" Ben asked, reaching for it.
+
+But when Lila gave him the apple, it was soft and mushy. It had brown spots and holes. It smelled bad.
+
+"Yuck, this apple is rot!" Ben said, dropping it.
+
+"What is rot?" Lila asked, wrinkling her nose.
+
+"Rot is when something is old and bad. It is not good to eat. It makes you sick." Ben explained.
+
+"Who put this rot apple here?" Lila wondered.
+
+They heard a voice behind them. It was Mr. Lee, their neighbor. He had a rake and a wheelbarrow.
+
+"Hello, children. What are you doing?" Mr. Lee asked.
+
+"We are playing, Mr. Lee. But we found a rot apple in your pile. Why do you have rot things?" Lila asked.
+
+Mr. Lee smiled. "This is not a pile of rot things, Lila. This is a pile of compost. Compost is when you put old leaves and fruits and vegetables and other things in a pile. Then they rot and turn into dirt. The dirt is good for the plants. It helps them grow and be healthy."
+
+"Wow, really?" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, really. Compost is a kind of order. Order is when you have a plan or a rule for something. My order is to make compost from my old things and use it for my garden. Do you want to help me?" Mr. Lee asked.
+
+Lila and Ben nodded. They liked to help. They helped Mr. Lee rake the leaves and sticks and put them in the wheelbarrow. They saw more old fruits and vegetables. They saw bananas and carrots and lettuce and tomatoes. They saw an enormous pumpkin. It was bigger than Lila and Ben.
+
+"Look at that pumpkin, Mr. Lee. It is enormous!" Lila said.
+
+"Yes, it is, Lila. I grew it in my garden. It was very heavy. I had to use a cart to bring it here. Do you know why it was so enormous?" Mr. Lee asked.
+
+"Because you gave it compost?" Ben guessed.
+
+"That's right, Ben. Compost made the pumpkin grow and grow and grow. It was the biggest pumpkin in the town. I won a prize for it. But now it is old and rot. So I will make it into compost too. Maybe next year I will grow another enormous pumpkin. Or maybe something else. What do you think?" Mr. Lee asked.
+
+Lila and Ben thought. They liked to think. They thought of all the things they could grow with compost. They thought of flowers and trees and berries and corn. They thought of all the colors and shapes and smells and tastes. They smiled.
+
+"We think compost is amazing, Mr. Lee. Thank you for teaching us. Can we come and help you again?" Lila and Ben asked.
+
+"Of course, you can, children. You are always welcome. Compost is more fun when you share it. Come on, let's finish this pile and then have some cookies and milk. How does that sound?" Mr. Lee said.
+
+Lila and Ben cheered. They liked cookies and milk. They liked Mr. Lee. They liked compost. They followed Mr. Lee to his house. They were happy.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bush with red berries. They are hungry and want to eat the berries.
+
+But a bird is on the bush. The bird says, "These are my berries. Go away!" Tom and Sue are sad. They do not want to fight with the bird.
+
+They see another bush with blue berries. They run to the bush. But a squirrel is on the bush. The squirrel says, "These are my berries. Go away!" Tom and Sue are sad. They do not want to fight with the squirrel.
+
+They see another bush with yellow berries. They run to the bush. But a bee is on the bush. The bee says, "These are my berries. Go away!" Tom and Sue are sad. They do not want to fight with the bee.
+
+They sit on the grass and cry. They are hungry and have no berries. They look at each other and hug. They say, "We have no berries, but we have each other. We are friends. We value our friendship. Friendship is great."
+
+A man sees them and smiles. He has a basket with many berries. He says, "Hello, children. Do you want some berries? I have red, blue, and yellow berries. You can have some if you share with the bird, the squirrel, and the bee. They are also hungry and need berries. They value their berries. Berries are great."
+
+Tom and Sue are happy. They say, "Thank you, sir. We will share with the bird, the squirrel, and the bee. We value their berries. We value your kindness. Kindness is great."
+
+They take some berries and give some to the bird, the squirrel, and the bee. The bird, the squirrel, and the bee are happy. They say, "Thank you, children. You are nice. We value your sharing. Sharing is great."
+
+They all eat the berries and enjoy them. They are full and satisfied. They say, "These are the best berries ever. We value these berries. Berries are great."
+
+They all play in the park and have fun. They are friends. They value their friendship. Friendship is great.
+Lila and Ben are playing dress-up in their room. Lila puts on a pink dress and a shiny necklace. Ben puts on a black hat and a red cape. They pretend to be a princess and a prince.
+
+"Hello, princess Lila," Ben says, bowing to her. "You look very pretty today."
+
+"Thank you, prince Ben," Lila says, smiling. "You look very brave and strong."
+
+They go to their toy chest and look for more things to play with. Lila finds a bottle of perfume that belongs to their mom. She sprays some on her neck and wrists.
+
+"Wow, you smell very nice, princess Lila," Ben says, sniffing her. "What is that?"
+
+"It is perfume, prince Ben," Lila says, holding the bottle. "It makes you smell good. Do you want some?"
+
+"Yes, please, princess Lila," Ben says, nodding. "Can you spray some on me?"
+
+Lila sprays some perfume on Ben's neck and wrists. She is very gentle and careful. She does not want to hurt his eyes or nose.
+
+"There, now you smell good too, prince Ben," Lila says, admiring him.
+
+"Thank you, princess Lila," Ben says, hugging her. "You are very kind and sweet."
+
+They laugh and play some more. They have a lot of fun with their dress-up. They are happy and pretend to be a princess and a prince.
+Sam was a humble boy who liked to fly kites. He had a big red kite that he made with his dad. He took it to the park every day and flew it high in the sky. He was happy when he saw his kite dance in the wind.
+
+One day, he met a mean girl who also had a kite. Her kite was purple and had a long tail. She said to Sam, "My kite is better than yours. It can fly faster and higher. You have a silly kite. It is too small and plain."
+
+Sam felt sad and angry. He said, "No, my kite is good. It is strong and bright. I love my kite. You are rude and mean. Go away."
+
+The mean girl laughed and said, "No, I will not go away. I will show you how much better my kite is. I will fly it near yours and make it fall. Then you will cry and run away."
+
+She did what she said. She flew her kite close to Sam's kite and tangled their strings. She pulled hard and made Sam's kite crash to the ground. She said, "Ha ha, I win. Your kite is broken. You are a loser."
+
+Sam ran to his kite and saw that it was torn and dirty. He felt very sad and cried. He picked up his kite and hugged it. He said, "I'm sorry, kite. You were my friend. I will miss you."
+
+He looked up and saw the mean girl flying her kite again. She was smiling and singing. She did not care that she hurt Sam and his kite. She was very mean.
+
+But then, something bad happened to her. A big dog saw her kite and thought it was a toy. It ran to her and jumped on her. It bit her kite and ripped it apart. It also bit her pants and tore them. She screamed and cried. She dropped her kite and ran away. She was scared and embarrassed.
+
+Sam saw what happened and felt a little better. He said, "That was not nice, dog. But maybe she learned a lesson. Maybe she will not be mean to other kids and their kites. Maybe she will be more humble and kind."
+
+He took his kite and went home. He told his dad what happened. His dad said, "I'm sorry, son. That was not fair. But I'm proud of you. You were humble and brave. You did not fight back or be mean. You loved your kite and did not give up. You are a good boy."
+
+He hugged Sam and said, "Don't worry, we will make a new kite together. It will be bigger and better than the old one. It will fly higher and longer than any other kite. You will be happy again."
+
+Sam smiled and said, "Thank you, dad. I love you. You are the best dad ever."
+

+
+Lily and Sam said they were sorry again. They said they loved Mom and Grandma. They said they would not play hockey inside anymore.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed Lily and Sam. She said she loved them too. She said they could play hockey in the park when the sky was not gloomy. She said they could make a card for Grandma to say sorry for the vase.

+
+"Thank you, kind knights. You have quenched my thirst and made me happy. You can slide down my back and have fun," a voice said.

+
+"Dad, look what I can do!" she said when her dad came home from work. She took out her white math block and some other blocks and made an equation. "One plus one equals two!" she said.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that is amazing!" her dad said. "You are very smart. How did you learn math?"
+
+"Mom taught me. She said math is fun and useful. I like math," Lily said.

+
+He looked for Sue. He wanted to say sorry. He wanted to be friends again. But Sue was gone. She had gone home with her mom.

+
+But Lily and Ben were curious. They waited until mom was busy and sneaked out. They walked to the swamp and looked around. They saw a big log with a hole in it.
+
+"Maybe there is something inside," Lily said.

+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play in the forest. They had a big log that they used as a boat. They pretended to sail on the river and have adventures.
+
+One day, they saw a new log near their boat. It was smaller and smoother than their log. Lily wanted to try it. She said, "Let's use this log. It looks more fit for sailing."
+
+But Tom did not want to. He said, "No, this is our log. We found it first. We should not take other logs. That is bad."
+
+Lily did not listen to Tom. She pushed their log away and climbed on the new log. She said, "I don't care. I want to have fun. You are boring."
+
+Tom was angry and sad. He watched Lily sail away on the new log. He felt lonely and left out.
+
+But soon, Lily found out that the new log was not fit for sailing. It had a hole in it. Water started to fill the log. Lily got wet and scared. She cried, "Help! Help! My log is sinking!"
+
+Tom heard Lily's cry. He felt sorry for her. He grabbed their old log and paddled to her. He helped her get on their log. He said, "Don't worry. I am here. I will save you."
+
+Lily was grateful and ashamed. She said, "Thank you, Tom. I am sorry. I was wrong. I should not have taken the new log. I should have listened to you."
+
+Tom hugged Lily. He said, "It's okay. I forgive you. But you should not do that again. You could have been hurt. And you could have lost our log. That would have been a big punish."
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "You are right. I will not do that again. I promise. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Tom smiled. He said, "Of course. We are twins. We are always friends. Come on, let's go home. Mom will be worried."
+
+They paddled back to the shore. They left the new log behind. They took their old log with them. They learned their lesson. They were happy.
+Tommy was very hungry. He wanted some milk and cookies. He asked his mom, "Mom, can I have some milk and cookies, please?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can, Tommy. But you have to wait a little bit. I have to heat up the milk first. It will make it more yummy and cozy."
+
+Tommy nodded and waited. He saw Mom put the milk in a pot and turn on the stove. He smelled the milk getting warmer and warmer. He heard it bubbling and hissing. He wondered how it would taste.
+
+Mom took the pot off the stove and poured some milk in a cup. She added some honey and cinnamon. She gave the cup to Tommy and said, "Be careful, Tommy. The milk is very hot. Blow on it first before you sip it."
+
+Tommy took the cup and blew on it. He saw the steam coming out. He sipped a little bit. He felt the milk burn his tongue. He spat it out and cried, "Ow, ow, ow! Mom, the milk is too hot! It hurts!"
+
+Mom hugged Tommy and said, "I'm sorry, Tommy. I didn't mean to make the milk too hot. Let me get you some ice and water. And some cookies. They will make you feel better."

+
+"Maybe he is hungry," Mom said.
+
+"Maybe he is lonely," Lily said.

+But Sam is too excited. He does not want to wait. He wants to go on the slide now. He sees a gap in the line. He rushes to the slide. He pushes a kid out of the way.
+
+"Hey!" the kid says. "That's not nice!"
+
+Sam does not care. He climbs on the slide. He slides down fast. He laughs.
+
+But he slides too fast. He does not see the end of the slide. He flies off the slide. He falls on the ground. He hurts himself. He cries.
+
+Mia sees what happens. She runs to Sam. She is worried.
+
+"Sam, are you OK?" Mia says. "That was a bad thing to do. You should not rush. You should not push. You should be patient and kind."
+
+Sam feels sorry. He says sorry to the kid he pushed. He says sorry to Mia. He learns his lesson.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not rush and do not push. Be patient and kind.
+Lily liked pasta very much. She liked to eat it with cheese and sauce. She liked to make it with her mom. She liked to play with it on her plate.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, we are going to have pasta for dinner. Do you want to help me make it?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Yes, mom, I want to help you make pasta. I love pasta!"
+
+Lily and her mom went to the kitchen. They took out a big pot and filled it with water. They put it on the stove and turned it on. They waited for the water to boil.
+
+Lily's mom said, "Lily, can you get the pasta from the pantry? It is in a blue box."
+
+Lily said, "Okay, mom, I will get the pasta." She ran to the pantry and opened the door. She saw the blue box on the top shelf. She wanted to reach it, but it was too high. She saw a chair next to the pantry. She had an idea.
+
+Lily dragged the chair to the pantry. She climbed on the chair and stretched her arm. She touched the blue box. She pulled it down. But the box was heavy. It slipped from her hand. It fell on the floor. It broke open. Pasta spilled everywhere.
+
+Lily heard a loud noise. She looked down. She saw pasta all over the floor. She saw her mom running to her. She saw her mom's face. It was not happy. It was angry.
+
+Lily's mom said, "Lily, what did you do? You made a big mess. You wasted the pasta. You could have hurt yourself. You are a bad girl."
+
+Lily felt sad. She felt scared. She felt sorry. She wanted to say sorry. But she could not. She started to cry.
+
+Lily's mom did not hug her. She did not kiss her. She did not say it was okay. She did not say she loved her. She said, "Go to your room. You are not having pasta for dinner. You are having nothing."
+
+Lily ran to her room. She slammed the door. She threw herself on the bed. She cried and cried. She did not smile. She did not eat. She did not feel fine. She felt bad. She felt alone. She wished she had not touched the pasta. She wished her mom would smile. She wished she could have pasta for dinner. She wished she could be happy. But she could not. She had a bad ending.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they get tired and need a nap. Mommy tells them to go to their room and sleep for a little while.
+
+But Lily and Ben do not want to nap. They want to keep playing. They sneak out of their room and go to the backyard. They see a big pig in the barn. The pig is pink and fat. He has a curly tail and a snout.
+
+"Let's go and pet the pig!" Lily says.
+
+"OK, but be quiet. We don't want Mommy to hear us," Ben says.
+
+They tiptoe to the barn and open the door. The pig is sleeping on some hay. He looks cozy and warm. Lily and Ben touch his fur and his ears. They giggle and whisper.
+
+But the pig does not like to be disturbed. He wakes up and snorts. He makes a loud noise. He grunts and squeals. He runs around the barn and knocks over some buckets and tools.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They run out of the barn and back to the house. They hear Mommy coming. She looks angry.
+
+"What are you doing here? I told you to nap!" Mommy says.
+
+"Sorry, Mommy. We wanted to see the pig. But he was loud and mean," Lily says.
+
+"We won't do it again, Mommy. We are sorry," Ben says.
+
+Mommy sighs and hugs them. She takes them to their room and tucks them in.
+
+"Next time, listen to Mommy. Napping is good for you. And leave the pig alone. He needs his nap too," Mommy says.
+
+Lily and Ben nod and close their eyes. They fall asleep and dream of the pig.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play and talk. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big truck. The truck has popcorn. Ben and Lily love popcorn. They ask their moms for some.
+
+"Can we have popcorn, please?" they say.
+
+"Sure, sweeties. Here you go," their moms say. They give them some money and get two bags of popcorn.
+
+Ben and Lily are happy. They sit on a bench and eat their popcorn. They talk about the truck.
+
+"The truck is big and red," Ben says.
+
+"Yes, and it makes a loud noise," Lily says.
+
+They hear a honk. They look at the truck. The truck driver is angry. He yells at a car.
+
+"Move, you stupid car! You are in my way!" he says.
+
+Ben and Lily are scared. They don't like the truck driver. He is mean and rude.
+
+"Why is he so angry?" Ben asks.
+
+"I don't know. He is stupid," Lily says.
+
+They finish their popcorn and throw the bags in the trash. They run to their moms and hug them.
+
+"Let's go home, mom. We don't like the truck driver," they say.
+
+"Okay, honey. Let's go," their moms say.
+
+They leave the park and go home. They are glad they have each other. They are good friends.
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big truck in front of Ben's house. It had many boxes and bags.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"That is our stuff. We are moving to a new house," Ben said.
+
+Lily felt sad. She did not want Ben to go away. She liked to play with him.
+
+"Where is your new house?" Lily asked.
+
+"It is far away. It is near the sea. My dad says we can see the sky and the water. He says it is very clear and pretty," Ben said.
+
+Lily tried to smile. She wanted Ben to be happy. But she would miss him a lot.
+
+"Can I come to your new house?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course you can. You are my friend. You can come anytime. My mom and dad will welcome you. They like you too," Ben said.
+
+Lily hugged Ben. She was glad he was still her friend. She hoped to see his new house someday. She looked at the sky. It was clear and blue. She wished Ben a good trip. She said goodbye. She waved until the truck was gone.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play outside with their dog, Spot. One day, they see their mom go to the mail box. She has a big smile on her face.
+
+"Look, Anna and Ben, I got a letter from Grandma!" she says. "She says she misses us and she sends us hugs and kisses."
+
+"Can we write to Grandma, too?" Anna asks.
+
+"Of course, you can," mom says. "Let's go inside and get some paper and crayons."
+
+Anna and Ben run inside with Spot. They find some paper and crayons and start to draw pictures for Grandma. They draw flowers, stars, and hearts. They write their names and "I love you" with mom's help.
+
+"Can we go to the mail box now?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, let's go," mom says. "But we have to hurry, it's getting dark soon."
+
+They put their pictures in an envelope and write Grandma's address. They put a stamp on it and seal it. They hold mom's hand and walk to the mail box. Spot follows them, wagging his tail.
+
+They put their letter in the mail box and wave goodbye to it.
+
+"Bye, bye, letter," Anna says. "We hope Grandma likes it."
+
+"Maybe she will write back to us," Ben says.
+
+"Maybe she will," mom says. "Now let's go home, it's dark and cold."
+
+They go home and have some hot chocolate and cookies. They cuddle with Spot on the couch and read a book. They are happy and warm. They think of Grandma and smile.
+Tom and Lily liked to play with their toy cars and trucks. They made roads and bridges with blocks and books. They zoomed and honked and crashed their toys. Sometimes they had races and sometimes they had accidents.
+
+One day, Tom had a big idea. He wanted to make a wreck with his cars and trucks. He piled them up on a high book. He said, "Look, Lily, I made a wreck. It is impressive. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked wrecks too. She came closer to the book. Tom smiled. He lifted his hand and pushed the book. The cars and trucks fell down with a loud noise. They bounced and rolled and broke. Tom and Lily laughed and clapped.
+
+But then they heard a voice. It was Mom. She was not happy. She saw the mess and the broken toys. She said, "Tom and Lily, what did you do? You made a wreck with your cars and trucks. It is not impressive. It is naughty. You have to clean up and say sorry."
+
+Tom and Lily felt bad. They did not mean to be naughty. They liked their cars and trucks. They said, "Sorry, Mom. We will clean up." They picked up the toys and put them in a box. They hugged Mom and said, "We love you, Mom. We will not make wrecks again." Mom smiled and hugged them back. She said, "I love you too, Tom and Lily. You can play with your cars and trucks, but be careful and gentle. And no more wrecks, OK?" Tom and Lily nodded. They learned their lesson. They played with their cars and trucks, but they did not make wrecks. They had fun and Mom was happy.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and has a long tail. The dog looks friendly.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Ben says. He walks to the dog and pets its head. The dog wags its tail and licks Ben's face.
+
+"Can we play with the dog?" Mia asks.
+
+"Sure, why not?" Ben says. "Maybe the dog can show us something fun."
+
+Ben and Mia follow the dog. The dog runs and jumps and barks. Ben and Mia run and laugh and shout. They have a lot of fun.
+
+The dog leads them to a pond. The pond has water and ducks and frogs. The dog jumps into the water and splashes. Ben and Mia watch the dog.
+
+"Look, the dog has a stick!" Mia says. She points to the dog's mouth. The dog has a big stick. The stick is useful. The dog can play with it and chew it and fetch it.
+
+"Can we have the stick?" Ben asks.
+
+"Let's ask the dog," Mia says. She calls to the dog. "Hey, dog, can we have the stick?"
+
+The dog hears Mia. It swims to the edge of the pond. It drops the stick on the ground. It looks at Ben and Mia.
+
+"Thank you, dog!" Ben says. He picks up the stick. He throws the stick into the water. The dog chases the stick and brings it back.
+
+Ben and Mia take turns throwing the stick. The dog fetches the stick every time. They play with the dog and the stick for a long time. They are happy.
+
+The end.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toy cars and trucks. One day, they find a big can of oil in the garage. They want to use it for their trucks.
+
+They take the can of oil and carry it to the backyard. It is very heavy and they have to hold it with both hands. They are careful not to spill it. They find a spot to put the can of oil next to their trucks.
+
+They open the can of oil and pour some into their trucks. They pretend that their trucks are real and need oil to run. They make vroom-vroom noises and drive their trucks around the yard. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they see their mom coming. She looks angry. She sees the can of oil and the oil on the ground and on their trucks. She says, "What have you done? This oil is not for playing. It is for the car. It is very messy and dangerous. You could have hurt yourselves or the plants or the animals. You have to clean this up right now!"
+
+Ben and Lily feel sorry. They did not know that the oil was not for playing. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We just wanted to play with our trucks. We did not mean to make a mess." They help their mom to clean up the oil. They use a blue cloth and some water and soap. They wipe their trucks and the ground and the can of oil. They put the can of oil back in the garage.
+
+Mom hugs them and says, "I know you like to play with your trucks, but you have to be careful with what you use. Oil is not a toy. It is for the car. Next time, ask me before you take something from the garage. I love you, but you have to learn to be responsible."
+
+Ben and Lily say, "We love you too, mom. We will ask you next time. We are sorry." They hug their mom and go back to play with their trucks. But this time, they use water instead of oil. They still have a lot of fun.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with toys. They have a big toy whale. They pretend the whale can talk.
+
+One day, Tom and Sam have a fight. Tom wants the whale to say "I am big and strong". Sam wants the whale to say "I am nice and kind". They pull the whale from each other. The whale falls on the floor. The whale is sad.
+
+Tom and Sam stop fighting. They see the whale on the floor. The whale is dry. The whale needs water. Tom and Sam feel sorry. They say "We are sorry, whale. We are not nice to you. You can talk what you want."
+
+They pick up the whale. They take the whale to the sink. They fill the sink with water. They put the whale in the water. The whale is happy. The whale says "Thank you, Tom and Sam. You are good friends. I like to talk with you."
+
+Tom and Sam hug the whale. They hug each other. They say "We are sorry, whale. We are sorry, friend. We will not fight again. We will share the whale. We will have fun together."
+Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily liked to be organized. She had a box for her dolls, a box for her cars, and a box for her books. Max liked to be messy. He threw his toys everywhere and did not care.
+
+"Max, you are making a big mess!" Lily said. "Put your toys in the boxes like me!"
+
+"No, I don't want to!" Max said. "I like to play like this!"
+
+Lily was angry. She saw Max holding her favorite toy, a velvet rabbit. She wanted it back.
+
+"Give me my rabbit, Max!" Lily said. "It is mine, not yours!"
+
+Max did not listen. He held the rabbit tight and ran away. Lily chased him around the couch.
+
+"Stop, Max, stop!" Lily said. "You are hurting my rabbit!"
+
+Max did not stop. He ran to the door and opened it. He saw a big dog outside. The dog barked loud and ran to Max.
+
+Max was scared. He let go of the rabbit and ran back inside. The dog grabbed the rabbit in its mouth and ran away.
+
+Lily saw what happened. She was sad. She cried and cried.
+
+"Max, you are so mean!" Lily said. "You released my rabbit to the dog! Now I don't have it anymore!"
+
+Max felt sorry. He saw Lily crying and felt bad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Max said. "I did not mean to release your rabbit. I was just playing."
+
+He hugged Lily and said, "I will help you find another rabbit. A new one, just for you."
+
+Lily stopped crying. She hugged Max back and said, "Thank you, Max. You are a good brother."
+
+They went to their mom and asked her to take them to the toy store. They hoped to find a new velvet rabbit for Lily. They also promised to be more organized and less messy with their toys.
+Lila and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big march of ants. The ants were carrying food and leaves. Lila and Tom wanted to see the ants up close.
+
+"Look, Tom, the ants are so busy!" Lila said.
+
+"Yes, they are. They work hard. Can we touch them?" Tom asked.
+
+Lila nodded. She reached out her hand to pick up an ant. But the ant bit her finger. Lila cried out in pain.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The ant hurt me!" Lila said.
+
+Tom felt sorry for Lila. He wanted to help her. He saw a stick on the ground. He picked up the stick and swung it at the ants.
+
+"I will save you, Lila! I will make the ants go away!" Tom said.
+
+But Tom did not know that the stick was too big and heavy for him. He lost his balance and fell on the ants. The ants got angry and bit him all over. Tom screamed and cried.
+
+"Help, help, help! The ants are biting me!" Tom said.
+
+Lila and Tom were both hurt and scared. They did not know what to do. They wished they had been gentle with the ants. They wished they had left the ants alone. They wished someone would come and save them. But no one came. The ants kept biting them. It was a bad ending.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big box on the porch. It had a bow and a tag that said "For Tom and Lily".
+
+"Look, Lily, a present!" Tom said. He ran to the porch and tried to open the box.
+
+"Wait, Tom, maybe it's not for us," Lily said. She followed him and looked at the tag. "It says 'Do not open until Christmas'."
+
+"But it's almost Christmas," Tom said. He pulled at the bow. "I want to see what's inside."
+
+Lily shook her head. "No, Tom, we have to wait. Mom and Dad will be mad if we open it now."
+
+Tom frowned. He really wanted to know what was in the box. He looked around and saw that Mom and Dad were not in the yard. He had an idea.
+
+"Let's just peek a little bit," he said. He lifted the corner of the box and saw something light and fluffy.
+
+"What is it?" Lily asked. She leaned closer and saw something move.
+
+"Wow, it's a puppy!" Tom said. He smiled and reached for the puppy.
+
+But the puppy was not happy. It barked and bit Tom's finger.
+
+"Ow!" Tom cried. He dropped the box and ran inside.
+
+Lily gasped. She saw the puppy jump out of the box and run away.
+
+"Oh no, Tom, what have we done?" she said. She ran after the puppy, hoping to catch it.
+
+But it was too late. The puppy was gone. And so was their present.
+Sara liked to play with her dolls. She had a big doll that was a queen. She had a crown and a dress and a wand. Sara liked to make the queen say things. She would say, "I am the queen of the flowers. I make them grow and smell nice." Then she would make the doll repeat, "I am the queen of the flowers. I make them grow and smell nice."
+
+One day, Sara's brother Tom came into her room. He saw the queen doll and wanted to play with it. He took it from Sara and said, "This is not a queen. This is a silly doll. I will make her say something else." He made the doll say, "I am a frog. I hop and croak and eat bugs." Then he made the doll repeat, "I am a frog. I hop and croak and eat bugs."
+
+Sara was very angry. She said, "Give me back my queen. She is not a frog. She is a queen of the flowers. You are mean and rude." She tried to take the doll from Tom, but he was stronger. He said, "No, she is a frog. And you are a baby. You only play with baby toys."
+
+Sara started to cry. She ran to her mom and told her what Tom did. Her mom was very kind and mild. She said, "Don't worry, Sara. Tom was wrong to take your doll and make her say things she doesn't want to say. He should apologize and give her back to you. Come, let's go and talk to him."
+
+Sara and her mom went back to her room. They saw Tom still playing with the queen doll. He was making her say, "I am a frog. I hop and croak and eat bugs." Sara's mom said, "Tom, that is not nice. You took Sara's doll without asking. You made her sad and upset. You should say sorry and give her back her doll."
+
+Tom looked at his mom and Sara. He felt bad for what he did. He said, "I'm sorry, Sara. I was just joking. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. Here, take your queen. She is not a frog. She is a queen of the flowers. She makes them grow and smell nice." He gave the doll back to Sara and hugged her.
+
+Sara smiled and hugged him back. She said, "Thank you, Tom. I forgive you. You can play with my queen if you want. But you have to be nice and gentle. And you have to make her say what she wants to say." Tom nodded and agreed. He said, "Okay, Sara. I will be nice and gentle. And I will make her say what she wants to say." They played together with the queen doll and had fun.
+Lily was a curious girl who liked to explore. One day, she found a gun in her dad's closet. She did not know what it was, but it looked shiny and fun. She picked it up and pressed a button. It made a loud noise and a hole in the wall.
+
+"Bang!" Lily said, surprised. She wanted to see what else the gun could do. She pointed it at her teddy bear and pressed the button again. "Bang!" Another hole in the wall, and her teddy bear fell down.
+
+"Lily, what are you doing?" Her mom heard the noise and came into the room. She saw the gun in Lily's hand and the holes in the wall. She was scared and angry. "Lily, drop that gun right now! It is very dangerous! You could hurt yourself or someone else!"
+
+Lily did not understand why her mom was yelling. She thought the gun was a toy. She did not want to drop it. She liked the noise and the holes. She looked at her mom and smiled. "Bang!" She said, and pressed the button again.
+
+But nothing happened. The gun was empty. Lily's mom quickly grabbed the gun from her hand and released the magazine. She checked if Lily was hurt. She was not, but she was very lucky. Lily's mom hugged her and said, "Lily, you must never touch a gun again. Do you understand? Guns are not toys. They are very bad and can hurt people. Promise me you will never touch a gun again."
+
+Lily nodded. She did not like to see her mom sad and scared. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I promise. I won't touch a gun again. I love you, mom."
+
+"I love you too, Lily. But you have to be more careful. You have to ask me before you play with something you don't know. OK?"
+
+"OK, mom. Can I play with my teddy bear?"
+
+"Yes, you can. But first, we have to fix the wall and the teddy bear. Come on, let's go."
+Ben and Lily liked to bounce on the big bed. They jumped up and down and made funny noises. They pretended they were frogs and birds and lions. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But one day, they bounced too hard and the bed broke. The mattress fell to the floor and the pillows flew everywhere. Ben and Lily were scared. They heard a loud noise from the door. It was Mom and Dad. They looked angry.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked. "You broke the bed! You are very wild and naughty!"
+
+Ben and Lily felt sorry. They did not mean to break the bed. They just wanted to play. They said sorry to Mom and Dad. They hugged them and said they loved them.
+
+Mom and Dad were not angry anymore. They loved Ben and Lily too. They said they would fix the bed later. But they said Ben and Lily had to clean up the mess. They had to put the pillows back and zip the zipper on the mattress cover. They had to be careful and gentle.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They helped Mom and Dad clean up the mess. They learned their lesson. They did not bounce on the bed anymore. They found other ways to play and have fun. They were still wild and happy, but not naughty.
+Tom and Lily were going on a big trip with Mom and Dad. They had to go on a plane and fly far away. They were very excited, but also a little scared. They had never been on a plane before.
+
+They packed their bags and put on their coats. Mom and Dad gave them each a passport. A passport was a small book with their names and pictures. They needed it to go on the plane. Tom and Lily looked at their passports and smiled.
+
+They got in the car and drove to the airport. It was raining hard and the wind was blowing. Tom and Lily looked out the window and saw the dark clouds. They shivered and hugged their teddy bears.
+
+They arrived at the airport and got out of the car. They ran to the big building with their bags and passports. They followed Mom and Dad to a long line of people. They waited and waited. They were bored and tired.
+
+Finally, it was their turn to show their passports to a man in a uniform. He looked at their passports and then at them. He smiled and said, "Hello, Tom and Lily. Where are you going?"
+
+"We are going to see Grandma and Grandpa," Tom said.
+
+"They live in a warm and sunny place," Lily said.
+
+"That sounds nice," the man said. "Have a good trip." He stamped their passports and gave them back.
+
+Tom and Lily thanked him and ran to Mom and Dad. They were happy and ready to go on the plane. They hoped it would stop raining soon. They did not like being wet.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. They did not hear their mom call them for dinner.
+
+Mom came to the living room and saw the mess. She was not happy. She said, "Tom and Lily, it is time for dinner. Why did you not come when I called you? Look at this mess. You have to clean up before you eat."
+
+Tom and Lily were confused. They did not know why mom was angry. They said, "But mom, we were playing. We did not hear you. Can we eat first and then clean up?"
+
+Mom shook her head. She said, "No, you cannot. You have to learn to listen and follow the rules. I do not permit you to play with your toys until you finish your dinner and clean up. Now, put your toys away and come to the table."
+
+Tom and Lily were sad. They did not want to stop playing. They did not want to clean up. They did not want to eat. But they knew they had to do what mom said. They slowly put their toys away and followed mom to the table. They hoped mom would be happy again after dinner.
+Tom and Sue were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were heroes who could save the world from bad guys. They had a toy missile that they used to make loud noises and scare the birds.
+
+"Look, Sue, there is an ancient castle over there!" Tom said, pointing to a big stone building. "Maybe there are bad guys hiding inside. Let's go and save the castle!"
+
+"OK, Tom, but be careful. The castle looks old and scary. Maybe there are traps and monsters inside." Sue said, following Tom with the missile.
+
+They ran to the castle and climbed over the wall. They saw a big door that was locked with a chain. Tom tried to pull the chain, but it was too strong.
+
+"Let me try, Tom. I have the missile. Maybe it can break the chain." Sue said, holding the missile like a hammer. She swung the missile at the chain, but it bounced back and hit her head.
+
+"Ow! That hurt!" Sue cried, dropping the missile. "This missile is useless!"
+
+"Are you OK, Sue?" Tom asked, hugging her. "I'm sorry, I should have helped you."
+
+Just then, they heard a loud noise from inside the castle. The door opened and a man came out. He was wearing a funny hat and a long coat. He had a big beard and a sword.
+
+"Who are you? What are you doing here?" The man asked, looking angry. "This is my castle. You are trespassers. Go away or I will call the guards!"
+
+Tom and Sue were scared. They did not know who the man was. Maybe he was a bad guy. Maybe he was a king. Maybe he was a wizard.
+
+"Please, sir, we are sorry. We were just playing. We did not mean to bother you." Tom said, trying to be polite.
+
+"Playing? With this?" The man said, picking up the missile. "This is not a toy. This is a dangerous weapon. Where did you get this?"
+
+"We found it in the park. It is a toy missile. It makes noises." Sue said, feeling brave.
+
+"A toy missile? Noises? This is no toy. This is a real missile. It can explode and destroy everything. How did you get this?" The man said, looking shocked.
+
+"We don't know, sir. We just found it. We did not know it was real. Please don't be mad at us." Tom said, feeling sorry.
+
+The man looked at the missile and then at the children. He saw that they were innocent and curious. He saw that they were not bad guys. He saw that they were heroes who wanted to save the castle.
+
+He smiled and said, "You know what? You are very brave and smart. You found a missile that was hidden in the park. Someone must have left it there to harm the castle. You saved the castle from a big danger. You are heroes."
+
+Tom and Sue smiled and said, "Thank you, sir. You are very kind and wise. You have a beautiful castle. Who are you?"
+
+The man said, "I am the lord of the castle. I live here with my family and my friends. We are the protectors of the ancient history. We have many books and treasures and secrets. Would you like to see them?"
+
+Tom and Sue nodded and said, "Yes, please. We would love to see them."
+
+The man said, "Come with me, then. I will show you around. But first, let me take this missile and put it somewhere safe. We don't want it to explode and ruin our fun."
+
+He took the missile and walked into the castle. Tom and Sue followed him, holding hands. They were happy and excited. They had saved the castle and made a new friend. They had a lot to learn and a lot to play.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the garden. They have a big bucket of water and some cups. They like to pour water on the flowers and on each other. They laugh and splash and have fun.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud noise. It sounds like a big dog barking. They look around and see a big black dog running towards them. The dog looks angry and has sharp teeth. Anna and Ben are scared. They drop their cups and run to the house.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shout. "There is a big dog!"
+
+Mom hears them and comes out. She sees the dog and realizes it is their neighbor's dog, Max. Max is not angry, he is just playful. He likes to chase and bark, but he does not bite.
+
+"Max, stop!" Mom says. "You are scaring Anna and Ben!"
+
+Mom calls the neighbor and asks him to come and get Max. The neighbor apologizes and takes Max away. Mom hugs Anna and Ben and tells them they are safe.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Anna says. "We are wet and dirty."
+
+"That's okay," Mom says. "You can have a bath and change your clothes. But next time, be careful of Max. He is a big dog and he might knock you over."
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They are glad the dog is gone. They go inside and have a bath. They still like to play with water, but not with big dogs.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were giants and the furniture was their toys. They moved the chairs, the table, the sofa and the lamp around. They made loud noises and laughed.
+
+"Look, I have a big hat!" Ben said, putting the lampshade on his head.
+
+"And I have a big bed!" Lily said, lying on the sofa.
+
+They were having fun, but they did not see that Mom was watching them. Mom did not look happy. She did not like when they messed up the furniture.
+
+"Lily, Ben, stop that right now!" Mom said, in a stern voice. "You are making a big mess and you could break something. The furniture is not for playing, it is for sitting and eating and reading. Put everything back where it belongs, please."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry. They did not mean to make Mom angry. They just wanted to play.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," they said, in a small voice.
+
+They started to put the furniture back in its place. They realized that the furniture was not very fun after all. It was heavy and hard and boring. They wished they had real toys to play with.
+
+"Mom, can we go to the park?" Lily asked, hopefully.
+
+"Maybe later, if you behave," Mom said, softening a bit. "But first, you have to help me clean up the living room. And then you have to say sorry to the furniture. It does not like to be moved around either. It likes to stay where it is."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They did not understand why the furniture had feelings, but they did not want to upset it. They said sorry to the chairs, the table, the sofa and the lamp. They hoped they would forgive them.
+
+They finished cleaning up and hugged Mom. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with their own toys next time. They seemed more fun and more friendly than the furniture.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park and share their toys. One day, they found a big rail near the swings. It was shiny and long.
+
+"Look, Lily, we can use this as a bridge!" Ben said.
+
+"Wow, that's fun!" Lily said. "Let's pretend we are going to a castle!"
+
+They took turns walking on the rail, holding hands and balancing. They imagined they were princes and princesses, going to a fancy party.
+
+"Can I be your prince, Lily?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, Ben, you can be my prince. And I can be your princess!" Lily said.
+
+They smiled at each other and hugged.
+
+"Can we marry, Lily?" Ben asked.
+
+"Marry? What's that?" Lily asked.
+
+"It's when you love someone and you want to be with them forever. Like mommy and daddy," Ben said.
+
+"Oh, I see. Yes, we can marry, Ben. I love you and I want to be with you forever," Lily said.
+
+They kissed each other on the cheek and giggled.
+
+"I'm so glad we found this rail, Lily. It's our special bridge," Ben said.
+
+"Me too, Ben. It's our special bridge. And we are a special couple," Lily said.
+
+They held hands and walked on the rail again, happy and proud. They didn't notice the other kids watching them and smiling. They only saw each other and their castle.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play by the river. They saw a big otter who was swimming and eating fish. They wanted to pet the otter and make him their friend.
+
+"Hello, otter!" Tim said. "Can we play with you?"
+
+The otter looked at them and shook his head. He did not want to play with the twins. He liked to be alone and free.
+
+"Please, otter!" Kim said. "We will be nice to you. We have a big cage at home where you can sleep and eat."
+
+The otter did not like the sound of that. He did not want to sleep and eat in a cage. He wanted to sleep and eat in the river.
+
+"No, no, no!" the otter said. "Leave me alone!"
+
+But the twins did not listen. They ran after the otter and tried to catch him. They had a big net and a big bag. They wanted to take the otter home.
+
+The otter was scared and angry. He tried to run away, but the twins were faster. They threw the net over the otter and put him in the bag. They laughed and cheered.
+
+"We got him, we got him!" they said. "We have a new pet!"
+
+They carried the bag to their home. They put the bag in the cage and locked it. They gave the otter some water and some bread. They thought the otter would be happy.
+
+But the otter was not happy. He was sad and troubled. He missed the river and the fish. He hated the cage and the bread. He wanted to go back to his home.
+
+He cried and cried. He scratched and bit. He tried to break the cage and the lock. But he could not. He was trapped.
+
+The twins did not care. They ignored the otter's cries and scratches. They thought the otter was just being silly. They went to play with their other toys.
+
+The otter gave up. He stopped crying and scratching. He lay down in the cage and closed his eyes. He wished he was dead.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not take what is not yours. Do not force others to do what they do not want to do. Respect the lives and feelings of other creatures.
+Jill liked to help her mom with the house. She saw her mom polish the big table with a soft cloth. She wanted to polish too. She found a cloth and a bottle. The bottle had a red picture of a grape on it. She thought it was polish.
+
+She climbed on a chair and reached for the shiny things on the table. They were glasses. She took one and poured some of the red polish on it. She rubbed the cloth on the glass. It did not look shiny. It looked wet and red. She tried another glass. It was the same.
+
+She heard her mom come back. She wanted to show her mom what she did. She picked up two glasses and jumped off the chair. She was clumsy. She tripped and fell. The glasses broke. The red polish spilled. It was not polish. It was wine. Her mom was angry. She yelled at Jill. She said Jill was naughty and wasteful. She said Jill ruined the glasses and the wine. She said Jill had to go to her room. Jill was sad. She cried. She did not understand. She only wanted to help.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the basement. They found a big box with many things inside. Lily saw a shiny thing that looked like a tube with a glass at the end. She picked it up and said, "Look, Ben, I found a microscope! We can pretend to be scientists and look at tiny things!"
+
+Ben was curious and wanted to try the microscope too. He grabbed it from Lily's hand and said, "No, it's mine! I want to see the bugs and the dirt!" He ran to the window and put the microscope on the sill.
+
+Lily was angry and sad. She said, "Ben, that's not nice! You have to share! And be careful, the microscope is fragile! It can break easily!"
+
+But Ben did not listen. He was too busy looking at the microscope. He turned the knob and moved the glass. He saw a small spider crawling on the sill. He said, "Wow, look at that! It has eight legs and many eyes!"
+
+He leaned closer to the microscope and tried to touch the spider. But he pushed the microscope too hard and it fell off the sill. It crashed on the floor and broke into many pieces. The glass shattered and the tube bent. The spider ran away.
+
+Lily and Ben heard a loud noise and saw the mess. They were scared and shocked. They knew they were in trouble. They heard their mom coming down the stairs. She said, "What was that? What did you do?" She saw the broken microscope and was very angry. She said, "That was your dad's microscope! He loved it very much! It was very expensive and special! How could you be so careless and destructive?"
+
+Lily and Ben felt very sorry and guilty. They tried to explain, but their mom did not want to hear. She said, "You are both grounded! No more playing, no more TV, no more snacks! Go to your rooms and think about what you did!"
+
+Lily and Ben cried and ran to their rooms. They wished they had never found the microscope. They wished they had been nicer and more careful. They learned a hard lesson that day.
+Tom and Sue are twins. They like to play with pins. They have many pins of different colors and shapes. They make pictures with pins on a board.
+
+One day, they see a new pin in their box. It is shiny and has a star on it. Tom says, "This is a famous pin. It belongs to a star. I want it." Sue says, "No, it is mine. I saw it first. Give it to me." They both pull the pin and try to take it.
+
+The pin is not strong. It breaks in two. Tom and Sue are sad. They cry and say, "Oh no, we broke the famous pin. Now we have no pin. What will we do?"
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see. She says, "What happened, my loves? Why are you crying?" Tom and Sue show her the broken pin. They say, "We found a famous pin. It was shiny and had a star. But we fought over it and broke it. Now we have no pin."
+
+Mom hugs them and says, "Don't worry, my loves. It is not a famous pin. It is just a pin. I bought it for you at the store. It was cheap and pretty. I have more pins like this. You can have them if you share and play nicely. Do you want them?"
+
+Tom and Sue nod and say, "Yes, please. We are sorry, Mom. We will share and play nicely. We love you, Mom. We love pins, too." Mom smiles and gives them more pins. They say, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best." They hug Mom and make new pictures with pins on the board. They are happy and forget the broken pin.
+Anna liked to organize her toys. She had a box for her dolls, a box for her cars, and a box for her books. She liked to make everything neat and tidy. She was very proud of her toys.
+
+One day, she saw a big lily in the garden. It was white and yellow and smelled nice. She wanted to pick it and put it in her room. She thought it would look pretty with her toys. She ran to the garden and reached for the lily.
+
+"Stop!" shouted her mom. "That's not a lily, that's a daffodil. And it's not for picking, it's for looking. Leave it alone, Anna."
+
+But Anna did not listen. She wanted the lily very much. She pulled hard on the stem. But the stem was thick and strong. It did not break. Instead, Anna fell backwards and hit her head on a rock. She cried out loud. She felt a bump on her head and blood on her hair.
+
+Her mom ran to her and hugged her. She was very worried. She took Anna inside and cleaned her wound. She put a bandage on her head and gave her some ice. She said, "I'm sorry, Anna. You have to be more careful. And you have to listen to me. The daffodil is not a toy. It's a plant. It has a life. You can't take it away from the garden. You can only enjoy it from afar."
+
+Anna felt very sorry. She had hurt herself and the daffodil. She had been naughty and greedy. She had not organized her toys. She had made a mess. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was wrong. I won't do it again. I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Anna. But you have to learn from your mistake. Next time, ask me before you touch something. And respect the nature. It's not for taking, it's for sharing."
+
+Anna nodded. She hugged her mom and said, "OK, mom. I will. Thank you, mom."
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their dolls in the garden. They had a tea party with cups and plates and cookies. Lily had a pink dress and a pink hat for her doll. Ben had a blue shirt and a blue cap for his doll.
+
+"Hello, Miss Pink," Ben said to Lily's doll. "Would you like some tea?"
+
+"Yes, please, Mr. Blue," Lily said in a high voice. "But be careful, it is very hot."
+
+They poured some water from a plastic jug into their cups. They pretended to sip and make noises.
+
+"Ah, this is very good tea," Ben said. "But I think I need a napkin. I have a runny nose."
+
+He reached for a napkin, but before he could grab it, he sneezed loudly. He sneezed so hard that his cap flew off his head and landed on Lily's hat.
+
+"Ah-choo!" Ben sneezed.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried. "You sneezed on my hat! Now it is wet and dirty!"
+
+She took off her hat and looked at it. It had some water and some dirt on it. She was not happy.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I didn't mean to sneeze on your hat. It was an accident."
+
+He picked up his cap and tried to wipe off Lily's hat. But he only made it worse. He smeared more dirt on it.
+
+"Stop it, Ben!" Lily said. "You are making it worse! You are silly!"
+
+She threw her hat on the ground and crossed her arms. She was angry.
+
+Ben felt bad. He wanted to make Lily happy again. He looked around and saw some flowers. He had an idea.
+
+He picked some flowers and made a crown. He put it on Lily's head.
+
+"Look, Lily," he said. "You have a new hat. A flower hat. It is pretty and colorful and smells nice."
+
+Lily looked at herself in a mirror. She saw the flowers on her head. She smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Ben," she said. "You are nice. And you are funny. You make me laugh."
+
+She hugged Ben and gave him a cookie.
+
+They forgot about the old hats and continued their tea party. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Lily has a new thing. It is orange and soft. It has ears and a tail. It is a cat thing.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a cat thing!" Lily says. She holds the cat thing in her arms. "It is so nice. Do you want to touch it?"
+
+Ben nods. He likes cats. He reaches out his hand to touch the cat thing. But the cat thing does not like it. It hisses and scratches Ben's hand. Ben cries. His hand hurts.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben says. He shows Lily his hand. It has a red mark. "The cat thing is bad. It hurt me."
+
+Lily feels sorry for Ben. She does not want him to be sad. She thinks of a way to make him happy. She looks around the room. She sees another thing. It is blue and round. It has a hole and a string. It is a balloon thing.
+
+"I have an idea, Ben," Lily says. She puts the cat thing down. She picks up the balloon thing. She walks to Ben. "Here, Ben, I give you the balloon thing. It is so fun. You can blow it and make it big. You can pull the string and make it fly. You can play with it and be happy."
+
+Ben stops crying. He looks at the balloon thing. He smiles. He takes the balloon thing from Lily. He says thank you. He blows the balloon thing and makes it big. He pulls the string and makes it fly. He plays with it and is happy.
+
+Lily and Ben are friends. They share their things. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was a chubby girl who liked to decorate her head with ribbons and flowers. She thought she looked very pretty and wanted everyone to see her. She did not like to share her ribbons and flowers with her friends, because she wanted to have them all for herself.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and saw a little boy who was crying. He had a bandage on his head and no hair. Lily felt sorry for him and wondered why he was sad. She asked her mom, and her mom said he was sick and had to go to the hospital a lot. He lost his hair because of the medicine he took.
+
+Lily thought about how hard it must be for the boy to be sick and have no hair. She decided to do something nice for him. She took off one of her ribbons and gave it to him. She said, "Here, you can have this. It will make your head look pretty." The boy smiled and thanked her. He put the ribbon on his head and said, "You are very kind. You made me happy."
+
+Lily felt happy too. She realized that sharing her ribbons and flowers was more fun than keeping them for herself. She learned that being kind and generous was more important than being pretty. She made a new friend and had a good day at the park.
+Tom likes to do tricks with his bike. He can go fast, jump high, and spin in the air. He thinks he is very fit and cool. He wants to show his friends how good he is.
+
+One day, he sees a big hill near his house. He thinks it would be fun to ride down the hill and do a big jump at the end. He tells his friends to watch him. He puts on his helmet and gloves and gets on his bike.
+
+He pedals hard and goes down the hill. He feels the wind in his face and the sun on his back. He sees the jump ahead and gets ready. He lifts his bike and flies in the air. He does a flip and lands on the other side. He is very happy and proud.
+
+But he does not see the car coming from the side. The car is fast and loud and has smoke coming out of it. The car hits Tom and his bike. Tom falls to the ground and his bike breaks. He feels a lot of pain and cries. His friends run to him and call for help.
+
+The car stops and the driver gets out. He is sorry and scared. He says he did not see Tom and his bike. He says he was in a hurry and did not look. He says he is sorry and he will help.
+
+Tom is very hurt and sad. He wishes he did not do the jump. He wishes he was more careful and safe. He learns a hard lesson. He hopes he will be fit and cool again.
+Tom and Anna were friends who liked to play soccer. They wanted to win a trophy in the soccer game. They practiced every day with their team.
+
+On the day of the game, they were very excited. They put on their uniforms and ran to the field. They saw the other team, who looked big and strong. Tom and Anna felt a little scared.
+
+"Don't be scared," Tom said to Anna. "We can do it. We just have to believe in ourselves and work together."
+
+Anna nodded. She smiled at Tom and said, "You're right. We are a good team. We can win the trophy."
+
+The game started. Tom and Anna ran and kicked the ball. They passed the ball to their teammates and tried to score. The other team was tough, but Tom and Anna did not give up. They cheered each other on and helped each other.
+
+At the end of the game, the score was tied. There was one more chance to score. Tom got the ball and ran towards the goal. He saw Anna open on the other side. He passed the ball to her. Anna caught the ball and kicked it hard. The ball flew past the goalie and into the net.
+
+They scored! They won the game! They won the trophy!
+
+Tom and Anna hugged each other and jumped up and down. They were so happy. They held the trophy and showed it to their team. Their team clapped and cheered for them.
+
+Tom and Anna were proud of themselves and their team. They believed in themselves and worked together. They won the trophy and had fun. They were the best soccer friends.
+Lily loved to go to the zoo with her mom and dad. She liked to see all the different animals, but her favorite was the big gorilla. She always gave him a banana and said hello.
+
+One day, when they went to the zoo, Lily saw that the gorilla was not in his cage. She asked her mom, "Where is the gorilla, mom? I want to see him and give him a banana."
+
+Her mom looked sad and said, "I'm sorry, Lily, but the gorilla is not here anymore. He was very old and sick, and he went to sleep forever."
+
+Lily did not understand what that meant. She thought the gorilla was just taking a nap, and he would wake up soon. She said, "But I want to see him, mom. He is my friend. Can we wait for him to wake up?"
+
+Her mom shook her head and said, "No, Lily, we can't. He is not going to wake up. He is gone."
+
+Lily felt a big pain in her chest. She started to cry and weep. She said, "No, no, no! I don't want him to be gone! I want him to be here! He is a good gorilla! He is a good gorilla!"
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I know, Lily, I know. He was a good gorilla, and he loved you too. But sometimes, things happen that we can't change. We have to say goodbye and remember the good times we had with him."
+
+Lily wept and wept, and her mom and dad wept with her. They stayed at the zoo for a while, and then they went home. Lily missed the gorilla very much, but she also remembered how he smiled at her and ate her bananas. She knew he was happy with her, and she was happy with him. She kept him in her heart, and hoped he was in a good place.
+Lily loved waffles. She ate them every morning with butter and honey. She was gifted at making them too. She could mix the batter, pour it on the iron, and flip it with a spatula. She was proud of her waffles.
+
+One day, she wanted to share her waffles with her friend Max. She invited him over for breakfast. Max was excited. He liked waffles too. He also liked to race. He was fast and strong. He always won the races at the park.
+
+When Max arrived, Lily showed him her waffle iron. She said, "I can make the best waffles in the world. Do you want to see?"
+
+Max nodded. He said, "Sure, but can we race first? I want to show you how fast I am. I can beat you to the end of the street and back."
+
+Lily frowned. She didn't want to race. She wanted to make waffles. She said, "No, thank you. I don't like to race. I like to make waffles. Can we do that first?"
+
+Max shook his head. He said, "No, thank you. I don't like to make waffles. I like to race. Can we do that first?"
+
+Lily and Max couldn't agree. They started to argue. They raised their voices. They hurt each other's feelings.
+
+They didn't notice that the waffle iron was getting too hot. They didn't smell the smoke. They didn't hear the beep.
+
+Suddenly, the fire alarm went off. It was loud and scary. Lily and Max stopped arguing. They looked at the waffle iron. It was burning. The waffles were black and crispy. The butter and honey were dripping.
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry. They had wasted the waffles. They had wasted their time. They had wasted their friendship.
+
+They hugged and said sorry. They said, "We are both gifted. You are gifted at racing. I am gifted at making waffles. We can do both. We can take turns. We can have fun."
+
+They ran outside. They raced to the end of the street and back. They laughed and cheered. They went back inside. They made new waffles. They ate them with butter and honey. They were happy. They were friends.
+Lily liked to create things with her toys. She had many blocks, dolls, cars and animals. She liked to make houses, shops, roads and farms. One day, she decided to create a big farm with all her animals. She put the cows, sheep, pigs and chickens in different pens. She made a barn with blocks and a tractor with a car and some cardboard.
+
+She was very proud of her farm and wanted to show it to her friend Tom. Tom lived next door and often came to play with Lily. But Tom was very shy and did not like to talk much. He liked to watch Lily play and sometimes joined her quietly.
+
+Lily knocked on Tom's door and asked him to come and see her farm. Tom nodded and followed her to her room. He saw the farm and smiled. He liked animals and farms. He pointed to a cow and said, "Beef."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, that's a cow. It gives us milk and beef. Do you like beef?"
+
+Tom nodded again and said, "Yes, I like beef. It's yummy."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Me too. Do you want to play with me? You can be the farmer and I can be the vet. We can take care of the animals and feed them."
+
+Tom nodded again and said, "Yes, I want to play with you. You are a good friend."
+
+Lily and Tom played with the farm for a long time. They had fun and learned new words. They were not shy anymore. They created a happy story.
+Lila and Ben are friends who like to play outside. They have a big hoop that they can roll on the grass or jump through. One day, they find a new hoop near the fence. It is shiny and has many colors.
+
+"Wow, look at this hoop!" Lila says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Can I try it?" Ben asks.
+
+"OK, but only for a little bit. Then you have to yield it to me," Lila says.
+
+Ben nods and takes the hoop. He rolls it on the grass and makes it spin. He is very happy.
+
+"Ben, it is my turn now," Lila says after a while.
+
+"But I like this hoop. It is so fun!" Ben says.
+
+"You have to share, Ben. You said you would yield it to me," Lila says.
+
+Ben pouts and holds the hoop tight. He does not want to give it up.
+
+Lila gets angry and tries to pull the hoop from Ben. They both tug and tug, but the hoop does not move.
+
+"Stop it, Lila! It is mine!" Ben shouts.
+
+"Stop it, Ben! It is mine!" Lila shouts.
+
+They are both very loud and mean.
+
+Then, they hear a voice from the fence.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing with my hoop?" the voice says.
+
+They look up and see a jolly man with a big beard. He is wearing a red suit and a hat. He has a sack on his back.
+
+"It is your hoop?" Lila and Ben say.
+
+"Yes, it is. I left it here by mistake. I was delivering some presents to the children in this neighborhood. I am Santa Claus," the man says.
+
+Lila and Ben are very surprised and ashamed. They let go of the hoop and say sorry.
+
+"It is OK, kids. I know you like the hoop. It is very nice. But you have to learn to share and be kind to each other. That is the true spirit of Christmas," Santa says.
+
+He smiles and gives them each a candy cane. He also gives them a smaller hoop each, one red and one green.
+
+"Here, these are for you. You can play with them and have fun. But remember to yield them to each other sometimes. And be good, because I will be watching," Santa says.
+
+He picks up his big hoop and his sack. He waves and walks away.
+
+Lila and Ben look at each other and smile. They hug and say thank you.
+
+They are very happy and grateful. They play with their new hoops and share them nicely. They are good friends again.
+Anna loved to play with her toy reindeer. She named him Rudy and gave him a red nose. She took him everywhere, even to bed. Rudy was her best friend.
+
+One day, Anna and her mom went to the park. Anna brought Rudy with her. She put him on the swing and pushed him gently. She made him slide down the slide and run on the grass. She had so much fun with Rudy.
+
+But then, Anna saw some other kids playing with a ball. She wanted to join them. She ran to the ball and kicked it. She forgot about Rudy. She left him on the swing.
+
+Rudy was sad. He waited for Anna to come back. He looked at the sky and saw some birds. He wished he could fly with them. He looked at the trees and saw some squirrels. He wished he could climb with them. He looked at the swing and saw no one. He wished he could see Anna.
+
+Anna played with the ball for a long time. She laughed and shouted with the other kids. She had so much fun with the ball. But then, she heard her mom calling her. It was time to go home. She ran to her mom and hugged her. She forgot about Rudy. She left him on the swing.
+
+Rudy was sad. He waited for Anna to come back. He hoped she would remember him. He hoped she would miss him. He hoped she would love him. He looked at the swing and saw no one. He felt alone.
+Tim and Sue like to play outside. They have a big yard with grass and flowers and a swing. But today, the sky is gray and sad. It starts to rain. Tim and Sue run inside the house.
+
+They are wet and dirty. Their mom says, "You need to change your clothes. Put your dirty clothes in this strip." She gives them a big cloth with a string. Tim and Sue put their clothes in the strip and tie the string. Then they put on dry clothes.
+
+They want to play some more, but they cannot go outside. The rain is still falling. They look out the window and see a big puddle. They wish they could jump in the puddle and splash. But mom says, "No, you will get wet and dirty again."
+
+Tim and Sue are bored. They look around the house for something fun to do. They see a box with crayons and paper. They have an idea. They take the crayons and paper and go to the table. They draw pictures of the rain and the puddle and the swing. They use many colors and make the pictures pretty.
+
+They show their pictures to mom. She smiles and says, "You are very good at drawing. I like your pictures. You can hang them on the wall." She gives them some tape and helps them stick their pictures on the wall. Tim and Sue are happy. They forget about the rain and the puddle and the swing. They have fun with their crayons and paper.
+Lily liked to play games with her friends. She had many games, but her favorite was the animal game. In the animal game, each friend had to act like an animal and make the sound of that animal. Lily liked to be a cat, because she could meow and purr and rub her head on people.
+
+One day, Lily and her friends were playing the animal game in the park. Lily was a cat, Sam was a dog, Mia was a bird, and Ben was a lion. They had a lot of fun running, jumping, and making noises. Other kids saw them and wanted to join. The animal game was very popular.

+Soon, there were many kids playing the animal game. Lily was happy, but also a little sad. She wanted to be the leader of the game, because it was her favorite. She had an idea. She raised her hand and said, "Listen, everyone! I have a new rule for the animal game. You have to do what I say, or you are out. I am the queen of the animals!"
+
+Some kids did not like the new rule. They said, "That is not fair! You cannot tell us what to do! We want to play our own way!" They left the game and played something else. Other kids did not mind the new rule. They said, "OK, Lily, we will do what you say. You are the queen of the animals!"
+
+Lily was happy again. She had her own game, and her own friends. She told them what animal to be, and what sound to make. She felt very important and powerful. She did not notice that the other kids were having more fun without her. She did not see that Sam, Mia, and Ben were looking at each other, and thinking of a new game to play.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They gave him a name: Snowy.
+
+"Hello, Snowy!" Lily said. "You are our new friend."
+
+"Yes, you are very nice," Ben said.
+
+But then the sun came out. It was warm and bright. The snow started to melt.
+
+"Oh no, Snowy is melting!" Lily cried.
+
+"Quick, let's move him to a shady place!" Ben said.
+
+They tried to push Snowy, but he was too heavy. They could only move him a little bit. His hat fell off. His scarf got loose. His carrot nose dropped.
+
+"Snowy, we are sorry!" Lily said. "We don't want you to go away."
+
+Snowy could not talk, but he smiled at them. He was happy that they cared for him.
+
+"Maybe we can make you again next time it snows," Ben said.
+
+"Or we can keep some snow in the freezer and make a mini Snowy," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the house and asked their mom if they could do that. She said yes, but they had to be careful not to open the freezer too much.
+
+They took some snow and put it in a bowl. They made a small snowball and added a tiny hat, a thin scarf and a raisin nose. They put the bowl in the freezer and closed the door.
+
+"There, now we have a new Snowy," Lily said.
+
+"And he won't melt," Ben said.
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They loved Snowy, big and small.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. They have many toys, but they both want the same one. It is a big navy truck with four wheels and a horn.
+
+"Give me the truck, Ben!" Mia says. "It is my turn to play with it!"
+
+"No, Mia!" Ben says. "I had it first! You can play with something else!"
+
+They both pull the truck and try to take it from each other. They start to scream and cry. They are very loud and angry.
+
+Mom hears them from the kitchen. She comes to their room and sees them fighting over the truck. She is not happy.
+
+"Stop it, Ben and Mia!" Mom says. "Why are you screaming and crying? You have so many toys available. You can share and take turns."
+
+"But Mom, we both want the truck!" Ben and Mia say.
+
+Mom looks at the truck. She sees that it has a sticker on it. The sticker says "Ben and Mia's truck".
+
+"Look, Ben and Mia," Mom says. "This truck is for both of you. It is not only Ben's or only Mia's. It is Ben and Mia's. You can play with it together. You can take turns driving it, honking the horn, and loading it with other toys. You can have more fun if you cooperate and be nice to each other."
+
+Ben and Mia look at the sticker. They look at each other. They feel sorry for screaming and crying. They nod and smile.
+
+"Okay, Mom," Ben and Mia say. "We will share and take turns. We will play with the truck together."
+
+Mom hugs them and kisses them. She is proud of them.
+
+"Good, Ben and Mia," Mom says. "I love you both. Now, have fun and be careful."
+
+Mom leaves the room. Ben and Mia play with the truck. They drive it, honk it, and load it. They laugh and talk. They are happy and friendly. They enjoy their navy truck.
+Tom and Mia were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a big box of animals and they liked to make noises and stories with them. Tom picked up the elephant and said, "This is my elephant. He is very big and strong. He can knock down anything with his trunk."
+
+Mia wanted to play with the elephant too. She said, "Can I have the elephant, please? He is so cute and gray. I want to hug him and feed him peanuts."
+
+Tom said, "No, you can't have the elephant. He is mine. You can have the giraffe. He is tall and has spots. He can eat leaves from the trees."
+
+Mia did not like the giraffe. She said, "The giraffe is boring. He is too tall and skinny. He can't do anything fun. I want the elephant. Please, let me have the elephant."
+
+Tom said, "No, no, no. The elephant is mine. He is the best animal. He can do anything. He can even lift you up with his trunk. Watch this." Tom put the elephant under Mia and lifted her up. Mia was scared and cried, "Put me down, put me down. I don't like this. The elephant is too strong. He is hurting me."
+
+Tom laughed and said, "See, the elephant is strong. He is not weak like you. You can't have the elephant. He is mine, mine, mine."
+
+Mia was very sad and angry. She said, "You are mean, Tom. You are not a good brother. You don't share. You don't care. I don't want to play with you anymore." She grabbed the elephant from Tom and ran away. Tom chased her and tried to get the elephant back. They both shouted and fought.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the garden. She saw Tom and Mia fighting over the elephant. She said, "Stop, stop, stop. What is going on here? Why are you fighting over the elephant? There are plenty of toys for both of you. You need to share and be nice to each other."
+
+Tom and Mia stopped fighting and looked at Mom. They both said, "But I want the elephant. He is my favorite. He is big and strong and cute and gray."
+
+Mom said, "The elephant is a toy. He is not real. He is not big or strong or cute or gray. He is just a piece of plastic. He can't do anything by himself. He can only do what you make him do. He can't knock down anything or lift you up or hug you or eat peanuts. He can't feel anything or say anything. He is not alive. He is not your friend. He is just a toy."
+
+Tom and Mia looked at the elephant. They realized that Mom was right. The elephant was not real. He was not big or strong or cute or gray. He was just a toy. He was not worth fighting over. They felt silly and sorry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We were silly and mean. We don't need the elephant. We have each other. We are real. We are alive. We are friends. We can share and be nice to each other."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's good, Tom and Mia. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Now, why don't you put the elephant back in the box and play with something else? How about the lion? He is very brave and loud. He can roar and run and jump. He can be your friend too."
+
+Tom and Mia nodded and said, "Okay, Mom. We will play with the lion. He is very brave and loud. He can roar and run and jump. He can be our friend too." They put the elephant back in the box and picked up the lion. They made noises and stories with him. They had fun and laughed. They did not fight anymore. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toy rockets in the garden. They liked to pretend they were astronauts and explore the stars. They had a big cardboard box that they used as a spaceship.
+
+"Ready for take-off, Lily?" Ben asked, holding his rocket.
+
+"Yes, Ben, let's go!" Lily said, holding hers.
+
+They climbed into the box and made loud noises with their mouths. They imagined they were flying through space and seeing planets and stars.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud boom. They looked out of the box and saw a big missile flying in the sky. It was coming towards them very fast. It looked scary and dangerous.
+
+"Ben, what is that?" Lily asked, feeling afraid.
+
+"I don't know, Lily, but it's not good. We have to save ourselves and the garden!" Ben said, feeling brave.
+
+He grabbed his rocket and threw it at the missile. He hoped it would stop it or make it go away. He used all his strength and aimed well.
+
+The rocket hit the missile and made a big explosion. The missile broke into pieces and fell to the ground. The garden was safe. Ben and Lily cheered.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you did it! You saved us and the garden! You are brilliant!" Lily said, hugging him.
+
+"Thank you, Lily, you are brilliant too! We are the best astronauts ever!" Ben said, hugging her back.
+
+They smiled and went back to their box. They continued their space adventure, feeling happy and proud.
+Anna likes to help her mom in the garden. She likes to water the plants and dig the soil. Mom says plants need water and sun to grow big and strong.
+
+One day, Anna sees a red ball under a green leaf. She pulls the leaf and finds a tomato. She is very happy and runs to show mom.
+
+"Look, mom, I found a tomato!" she says.
+
+"Wow, Anna, you did a great job! That is a very nice tomato. It was hidden under the leaf, but you found it. Do you want to taste it?" mom says.
+
+"Yes, please! Can I have a bite?" Anna says.
+
+Mom washes the tomato and cuts a slice for Anna. Anna takes a bite and smiles. The tomato is juicy and sweet.
+
+"Mmm, this is yummy! Can we grow more tomatoes, mom?" Anna says.
+
+"Of course, my dear. We can plant more seeds and watch them grow. Maybe we can find more hidden tomatoes next time. Would you like that?" mom says.
+
+"Yes, mom, I would love that. I love tomatoes and I love you!" Anna says.
+
+They hug and go back to the garden. They water the plants and sing a song. They are very happy.
+Sara and Tom were friends who liked to play dress-up. They had many clothes and hats and shoes to try on. Sara had a big pink dress that she loved. Tom had a black coat and a hat that made him look like a wealthy man.
+
+One day, they decided to play a game. Sara would be a princess and Tom would be a prince. They dressed in their best clothes and pretended to live in a castle. They had a tea party and danced and laughed.
+
+But then, Sara's mom came to pick her up. She saw Sara's dress and was angry. She said, "That dress is not yours, Sara. It belongs to Mrs. Lee, the lady who lives next door. You took it from her laundry without asking. That is very bad. You have to give it back and say sorry."
+
+Sara felt ashamed and scared. She did not know that the dress was not hers. She thought it was in the dress-up box. She did not want to make Mrs. Lee sad or angry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I did not know. I just wanted to play."
+
+Tom felt sorry for Sara too. He said, "I'm sorry, Sara. I did not know either. I thought the dress was very pretty. You looked like a real princess."
+
+Sara and Tom took off their clothes and gave them back to Sara's mom. Sara's mom took them to Mrs. Lee's house and made them apologize. Mrs. Lee was very kind and said, "It's okay, children. I know you did not mean any harm. You can play with my clothes sometimes, but you have to ask me first. And you have to be careful with them. They are very old and delicate."
+
+Sara and Tom said, "Thank you, Mrs. Lee. We will ask you next time. And we will be careful."
+
+They hugged Mrs. Lee and said goodbye. Sara's mom took Sara home and Tom went back to his house. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that they should not take things that are not theirs. And they learned that playing dress-up is fun, but being honest and respectful is more important.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is white and has black spots. Sara and Tom want to pet the dog, but they are scared.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Sara says. She points to the dog.
+
+"Can we touch it?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it will bite us," Sara says.
+
+They stay away from the dog. The dog sees them and runs to them. It barks and wags its tail. Sara and Tom are very afraid. They hide behind a bench.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Tom shouts.
+
+But the dog does not go away. It jumps on the bench and licks Sara's face. Sara giggles.
+
+"Hey, it's nice!" Sara says. She pets the dog's head.
+
+Tom is still scared. He does not want to pet the dog.
+
+"Come on, Tom. It's okay. The dog is friendly," Sara says.
+
+She holds Tom's hand and pulls him to the dog. Tom feels the dog's fur. It is soft and warm.
+
+"Wow, it's nice," Tom says. He smiles.
+
+The dog barks and wags its tail. It likes Sara and Tom. Sara and Tom like the dog.
+
+"You are brave, Sara. You are not afraid of the dog," Tom says.
+
+"You are brave, too, Tom. You pet the dog," Sara says.
+
+They hug the dog and the dog hugs them back. They are happy. They have a new friend.
+Ben and Mia are playing in the backyard. They have a big box of toys. Ben finds a colorful pistol. It is red and yellow and green. He likes it very much.
+
+"Look, Mia, I have a pistol!" Ben says. He points it at Mia and makes a loud sound. "Bang, bang, bang!"
+
+Mia is not happy. She does not like pistols. She thinks they are scary and mean. She wants to play with something else.
+
+"Ben, stop it!" Mia says. She covers her ears and runs away. "I don't like pistols. They are not fun. They are bad."
+
+Ben is confused. He does not understand why Mia is angry. He thinks pistols are fun and cool. He wants to play with Mia.
+
+"Mia, wait!" Ben says. He follows Mia and tries to give her the pistol. "Here, you can have it. It is a nice pistol. It is colorful. You can make sounds too."
+
+Mia shakes her head. She does not want the pistol. She sees a teddy bear in the box. It is brown and soft and cute. She likes it very much.
+
+"No, thank you, Ben," Mia says. She picks up the teddy bear and hugs it. "I like teddy bears. They are fun and nice. They are good."
+
+Ben is sad. He does not like teddy bears. He thinks they are boring and silly. He wants to play with the pistol.
+
+"Mia, please," Ben says. He holds the pistol and looks at Mia. "Can we play together? Can we share the toys? I like you. You are my friend."
+
+Mia smiles. She likes Ben too. He is her friend. She thinks for a moment. She has an idea.
+
+"OK, Ben," Mia says. She holds the teddy bear and looks at Ben. "We can play together. We can share the toys. But we have to make a rule. No pistols. Only teddy bears."
+
+Ben nods. He agrees. He puts the pistol back in the box. He finds another teddy bear. It is white and fluffy and sweet. He likes it a little bit.
+
+"OK, Mia," Ben says. He holds the teddy bear and looks at Mia. "We can play with teddy bears. They are not so bad. They are colorful too."
+
+Ben and Mia are happy. They play with the teddy bears. They make sounds and stories and jokes. They have fun. They are friends.
+Ben and Lily are squirrels. They like to play in the park. They run, jump, and climb on the trees. They find nuts and acorns to eat. They are happy.
+
+One day, they see a big, shiny nut on the ground. It is brown and round and smooth. They want to eat it. They run to the nut.
+
+"Look, Lily, a big nut!" Ben says.
+
+"Wow, Ben, it is so big!" Lily says.
+
+They try to bite the nut. But the nut is hard. They cannot break it. They push the nut. But the nut is heavy. They cannot move it. They are sad.
+
+"Maybe we need a tool," Ben says.
+
+"Or maybe we need help," Lily says.
+
+They look around. They see a big, long stick. It is near a bench. They run to the stick.
+
+"Maybe we can use this stick," Ben says.
+
+"Maybe we can hit the nut with the stick," Lily says.
+
+They pick up the stick. They carry it to the nut. They hit the nut with the stick. But the nut does not crack. It makes a loud noise. They are scared.
+
+They hear a voice. It is a man. He is sitting on the bench. He is holding a book. He is angry.
+
+"Hey, you squirrels, stop that!" the man says. "That is not a nut. That is a ball. That is my ball. Leave it alone!"
+
+Ben and Lily drop the stick. They look at the man. They look at the ball. They are confused.
+
+"Sorry, mister, we thought it was a nut," Ben says.
+
+"We were hungry, mister, we wanted to eat it," Lily says.
+
+The man shakes his head. He picks up the ball. He puts it in his bag. He goes away.
+
+Ben and Lily are tired. They are still hungry. They decide to nap. They find a cozy nest in a tree. They curl up together. They close their eyes. They dream of nuts. They are happy.
+Tom liked to clap his hands. He clapped when he was happy, when he saw his mom, when he heard a song. He clapped so much that his hands were strong. He could clap louder than anyone.
+
+One day, Tom went to the park with his mom. He saw a big square on the ground. It was made of wood and had holes in it. Tom was curious. He wanted to see what was inside the square. He walked over to it and clapped his hands.
+
+The square made a funny sound. It sounded like a drum. Tom liked the sound. He clapped again and again. He made a rhythm with his claps. He felt like a musician.
+
+But the square did not like the claps. The square was angry. The square was a trap. It was hiding a big bear. The bear was sleeping inside the square. The claps woke him up. He was hungry and grumpy.
+
+The bear roared and broke the square. He came out of the hole. He saw Tom and his mom. He wanted to eat them. He ran towards them with his big teeth and claws.
+
+Tom and his mom were scared. They did not know what to do. They could not run fast enough. They thought they were going to be eaten.
+
+But then, Tom had an idea. He remembered his strong hands. He clapped them as loud as he could. He clapped them right in front of the bear's face. He clapped them so hard that the bear was stunned. He clapped them so loud that the bear was scared. He clapped them so fast that the bear was confused.
+
+The bear stopped running. He covered his ears with his paws. He turned around and ran away. He did not want to hear the claps anymore. He wanted to find a quiet place to sleep.
+
+Tom and his mom were safe. They hugged each other. They thanked Tom's strong hands. They thanked his claps. They were happy. They clapped together.
+Lily liked to design things with her blocks. She made houses, cars, towers and animals. She used math to count how many blocks she needed and how to make them fit. She was very creative and had fun.
+
+One day, she wanted to show her friend Ben her designs. She invited him to play with her blocks. But Ben did not like to design things. He liked to smash things. He took Lily's blocks and threw them around. He laughed and said, "This is more fun than math!"
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She said, "No, Ben, that is not nice. You are breaking my designs. I worked hard to make them. Math is fun and helps you to be creative. You should not smash things, you should make things."
+
+Ben saw that Lily was crying. He felt sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I did not mean to hurt you. I just wanted to have fun. But I see that you have fun in a different way. Can you teach me how to design things with math?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Sure, Ben. I can teach you. But you have to promise not to smash things anymore. You have to be careful and respectful of other people's work."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "I promise, Lily. I want to learn from you. Maybe I can be creative too."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged and started to play with the blocks. They learned to design things together and to appreciate each other's skills. They became good friends and had fun with math.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They are very happy.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so nice!" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, he is. He looks like a real person!" Ben says.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. They turn around and see a big truck. The truck is coming fast. It is very noisy and scary.
+
+"Run, Anna, run!" Ben shouts.
+
+They run away from the snowman and the truck. They hide behind a tree. They are very scared.
+
+The truck stops near the snowman. A man gets out of the truck. He has a big arm. He grabs the snowman and puts him in the back of the truck. He does not see Anna and Ben.
+
+"Hey, that's our snowman!" Anna cries.
+
+"Why is he taking our snowman?" Ben asks.
+
+The man gets back in the truck and drives away. He takes the snowman with him. Anna and Ben are very sad.
+
+They go back to their house. They tell their mom what happened. Their mom hugs them and gives them hot chocolate. She says she is sorry.
+
+"Maybe we can make another snowman tomorrow," she says.
+
+"Maybe," Anna says.
+
+"But it won't be the same," Ben says.
+
+They drink their hot chocolate and feel a little better. They hope their snowman is not too cold in the truck. They hope he will appear again someday.
+Lily likes to play with insects. She likes to look at their legs, wings, and colors. She has a jar where she keeps some insects that she finds in the garden. She has a ladybug, a caterpillar, a grasshopper, and a bee.
+
+One day, Lily's friend Ben comes to visit. He sees Lily's jar and asks if he can play with the insects too. Lily says yes, but she tells him to be careful. She says he can lend the jar, but he has to give it back later. Ben says okay and takes the jar outside.
+
+Ben has fun with the insects. He watches them crawl, jump, and fly. He tries to make them do tricks, but they don't listen. He thinks they are not regular insects. He thinks they are special insects. He likes them so much that he wants to keep them.
+
+He forgets what Lily said and puts the jar in his backpack. He says goodbye to Lily and goes home. Lily does not notice that the jar is gone. She is busy playing with her dolls.
+
+The next day, Lily looks for her jar. She can't find it anywhere. She remembers that she lent it to Ben. She feels sad and angry. She wants her insects back. She calls Ben and asks him where the jar is. Ben says he has it. He says he likes the insects and he wants to keep them. He says they are his now.
+
+Lily cries and tells him that is not fair. She says he has to give the jar back. She says they are her insects and she loves them. She says he can't keep them. She says he is a bad friend.
+
+Ben feels sorry and ashamed. He knows he did something wrong. He knows he has to give the jar back. He says he is sorry and he will bring the jar back. He says he is a good friend.
+
+Lily stops crying and says thank you. She says she is a good friend too. She says she will lend him the jar again, but only if he promises to give it back. He says he promises. He says he will be more careful. He says he will play with regular insects instead. He says he will bring the jar back soon.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big hill behind their house. They wanted to climb it and see what was on top.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Tom said. "Maybe we can find something fun!"
+
+"OK, Tom!" Lily said. "But we have to be careful. It is very high."
+
+They put on their hats and shoes and ran to the hill. They started to climb, holding hands. They saw flowers, rocks, and bugs on the way. They also heard birds singing and wind blowing.
+
+They climbed and climbed until they reached the top. They looked around and saw many things. They saw their house, their garden, their dog, and their mom. They also saw other hills, trees, and clouds.
+

+
+"Yes, Lily!" Tom said. "We are like on a mountain!"
+
+They smiled and hugged. They felt happy and proud. They had found a little mountain to play on.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a big board that they used as a bridge, a car, a train and some animals. They made noises and pretended to go on adventures.
+
+"Choo choo, here comes the train!" Ben said, pushing the train along the board. "Watch out, car, you have to yield!"
+
+"No, I don't!" Lily said, holding the car. "This is my road, you have to stop!"
+
+They both wanted to use the board, and they started to argue. They pulled and pushed the board, trying to make the other one let go.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom said, coming into the room. "You have to share the board, or I will take it away!"
+
+Ben and Lily looked at Mom, and then at each other. They did not want to lose the board, but they also did not want to share.
+
+"Can we have another board?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sorry, we don't have another board," Mom said. "But we have something else. Do you want to see?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded, curious. Mom went to the closet and brought out a big box. She opened it and showed them what was inside.
+
+"Wow!" Ben and Lily exclaimed. There were many unknown things in the box. There were books, puzzles, crayons, stickers, and more. They looked fun and colorful.
+
+"These are some of your old toys that you have not played with for a long time," Mom said. "You can use them to make new games and stories. How about that?"
+
+Ben and Lily smiled. They forgot about the board and the car and the train. They wanted to try the unknown things. They thanked Mom and took the box to the floor. They started to explore and play with the new toys, happily. They did not argue anymore. They shared and helped each other. Mom watched them and smiled, too. She was glad they learned to yield and be nice.
+Lila was a clever princess who liked to play with water. She had a big tub of water in her garden, and many cups and jugs and bottles to pour water with. She liked to make waterfalls and fountains and rainbows with the water.
+
+One day, she invited her friend Ben to play with her. Ben was a prince who lived in the castle next door. He also liked water, but he did not have a tub of water in his garden. He only had a small bucket and a spoon.
+
+"Hello, Ben!" Lila said. "Do you want to play with my water?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben said. "Your water looks so fun!"
+
+Lila showed Ben all her cups and jugs and bottles. She let him choose one to pour water with. Ben chose a big jug with a handle and a spout.
+
+"Look, Lila!" Ben said. "I can pour water from the jug like this!" He lifted the jug and poured water on the grass.
+
+"That's good, Ben!" Lila said. "But can you pour water like this?" She took a small bottle with a hole in the cap. She squeezed the bottle and made a thin stream of water. She moved the bottle around and made shapes with the water.
+
+"Wow, Lila!" Ben said. "That's clever! How do you do that?"
+
+Lila explained to Ben how to make a hole in the cap and how to squeeze the bottle. She gave him another bottle to try. Ben made a hole in the cap and squeezed the bottle. He made a stream of water too. He and Lila had fun making shapes with the water.
+
+They made circles and squares and stars and hearts. They made letters and numbers and animals and flowers. They laughed and splashed and poured water until they were wet and happy. They were clever friends who liked to play with water.

+
+One day, mom tells them, "You have to clean your bedroom. It is very messy. I will order pizza for lunch if you do a good job." Anna and Ben love pizza. They say, "Okay, mom, we will clean our bedroom."
+
+But they do not really clean. They just move their toys from one place to another. They hide some under the bed and some in the closet. They think mom will not notice. They are wrong.
+
+Mom comes to check on them. She sees the toys everywhere. She is angry. She says, "You did not clean your bedroom. You lied to me. You will not get pizza. You will get salad and water."
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They do not like salad and water. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We will clean our bedroom for real. Please, can we have pizza?"
+
+Mom says, "No, you cannot have pizza. You have to learn your lesson. Maybe next time you will listen to me and do what I order." She leaves them with the salad and water.
+
+Anna and Ben look at each other. They do not want to eat the salad and water. They want to eat pizza. They decide to clean their bedroom. They hope mom will change her mind.

Hooray for pizza!" They hug mom and wait for the pizza. They are happy.
+Tim and Lily went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells. They saw a chubby crab crawling on the rocks. Tim wanted to catch it and put it in his bucket.
+
+"Look, Lily, a crab!" Tim said. "I want it!"
+
+"No, Tim, leave it alone!" Lily said. "It might pinch you!"
+
+But Tim did not listen. He ran to the crab and tried to grab it. The crab was angry and scared. It snapped its claws at Tim's hand. Tim felt a sharp pain and let go of the crab. He started to cry.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim cried. "The crab bit me!"
+
+Mom and Dad heard Tim's cry and came to see what happened. They saw the blood on Tim's hand and the crab on the rocks. They were worried and angry.
+
+"Tim, what did you do?" Mom asked. "Why did you touch the crab?"
+
+"I wanted it!" Tim said. "It was chubby and cute!"
+
+"Tim, you were very naughty and foolish!" Dad said. "You should never touch wild animals! They can hurt you or make you sick!"
+
+Mom and Dad took Tim to the car and drove to the doctor. The doctor cleaned Tim's wound and gave him a bandage and some medicine. He told Tim to be more careful next time. Tim felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+Lily stayed on the beach with her bucket. She did not want to play with Tim anymore. She was mad at him for hurting the crab and ruining their fun. She found a pretty shell and put it in her bucket. She smiled and said to the crab:
+
+"Bye, bye, crab. I hope you are okay. You are chubby and cute, but I will not touch you. You are free to go."

+
+"Mom, Tom won't let me have a turn!" Lily says.
+
+"Mom, Lily is being mean!" Tom says.
+
+Mom shakes her head. "That's not fair, Tom and Lily. You have to share the train. You have to take turns and be nice to each other. If you can't do that, I will take the train away."
+
+Tom and Lily don't want to lose their train. They look at each other and feel sorry. They say sorry to mom and to each other. They hug and make up.
+
+"Can we play with the train again, mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"Yes, you can, but you have to settle on a rule. How about you switch the driver and the passenger every five minutes? Is that fair?" mom suggests.
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They think that's a fair rule. They pick up the train and the track and fix them. They start to play with the train again, and follow the rule. They have fun and don't fight anymore. Mom smiles and leaves them to play. She is proud of them.
+Lily and Sam were playing with a big ball of yarn. They liked to make shapes and patterns with the yarn. But sometimes the yarn got tangled and made knots. Lily and Sam did not like knots. They were hard to undo.

+"Look, Sam, I made a heart with the yarn!" Lily said, holding up her creation.
+
+"That's nice, Lily. Can I see?" Sam asked, reaching for the yarn.

+
+"Oh no, Sam, you ruined it!" Lily cried, snatching the yarn back.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to. Can we fix it?" Sam said, feeling bad.
+
+Lily looked at the knot. It was very tight and messy. She did not know how to fix it. She felt angry and sad.
+
+"No, we can't fix it. It's too hard. You broke my heart, Sam!" Lily said, throwing the yarn on the floor.
+
+Sam felt worse. He wanted to make Lily happy. He thought of something. He ran to his room and came back with a pair of scissors.
+
+"Here, Lily, I have an idea. Maybe we can cut the knot and make two hearts. One for you and one for me. Then we can be friends again," Sam said, holding the scissors.
+
+Lily looked at Sam. He was smiling and holding the scissors. He was generous. He wanted to share the yarn with her. She felt sorry for being mean to him.
+
+"Okay, Sam, that's a good idea. Let's try it," Lily said, picking up the yarn.
+
+They carefully cut the knot and made two hearts. They were not perfect, but they were pretty. They gave each other a hug and a smile.
+
+"Thank you, Sam. You are a good friend. I like your heart," Lily said, holding her yarn heart.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend, too. I like your heart, too," Sam said, holding his yarn heart.
+
+They played with their yarn hearts and forgot about the knot. They were happy.

+"My name is Max," the dog says. "I live in that house." He points with his nose to a yellow house near the park.
+
+"Can we visit you?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, you can!" Max says. "But be careful. My owner is very angry. He does not like me to talk to people. He says I am a bad dog."
+
+"Why is he angry?" Lily asks.
+
+"He is angry because he is lonely," Max says. "He does not have any friends. He only has me. But he does not play with me. He only shouts at me."
+
+"That is sad," Ben says. "Maybe we can be his friends too. Maybe we can make him happy."
+
+Lily and Ben agree. They follow Max to his house. They knock on the door. They hope the owner will not be angry. They hope he will like them. They hope he will like the treat they brought for him. It is a cake with icing and sprinkles. They made it with their mom. They think it is very yummy. They think the owner will think so too. They wait for the door to open. They smile.

+
+Tom is patient. He waits for many days. He watches the lemon every day. He sees it change from green to yellow. He sees it grow bigger and softer. He is excited. He wants to taste it.

+
+"Me too, Max, me too. That would be so fun and so exciting. Can we do that, Max? Can we go to the stars?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe, Lily, maybe. But we have to work hard and be brave and be curious. And we have to stick together and help each other. Can we do that, Lily? Can we be a team?" Max asked.
+
+"Yes, Max, yes. We can do that. We can be a team. We can be the best team ever. We can do anything we want," Lily said.
+
+"Then let's make a promise, Lily. A promise that we will always be friends, and always try to learn more about the universe, and always go after our dreams. A promise that we will never give up, and never forget, and never stop looking at the stars. Can we make that promise, Lily?" Max asked.
+

+
+One day, they go to the park with their mom. They see a big slide and run to it. Lily goes first. She slides down fast and laughs. Ben goes next. He slides down slow and smiles.
+
+"Did you like the slide?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"Yes, it was fun. But I like the swings more. Do you want to swing with me?" Ben asks Lily.

+
+"I can do that too, Lila!" Ben says. He grabs the sponge and soaks it. He looks for Lila, but he cannot see her. He sees a point sticking out of the water. It is Lila's nose. She is hiding under the water.
+

+
+"That's not funny, Lila!" Ben says. He is angry and sad. He wants to get out of the bath.
+
+"Sorry, Ben, I was just playing!" Lila says. She tries to hug Ben, but he pushes her away. He stands up and slips on the wet floor. He falls and hits his head on the edge of the bath. He cries out loud.
+
+"Ben, Ben, are you okay?" Lila says. She is scared and sorry. She sees blood on Ben's head. She screams for Mommy.

+Lila is left alone in the bath. She is cold and wet. She is sad and guilty. She wishes she did not soak the sponge and squeeze it over Ben's face. She wishes she did not play that game. She wishes Ben was okay. She cries and cries.
+Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park and share their toys. One day, they see a big balloon in the sky. It is red and shiny and has many letters on it.
+
+"Wow, look at that balloon!" Lily says. "It is so pretty. I want to touch it."
+
+"Me too," Ben says. "But it is too high. How can we get it?"
+
+They think and think. Then they have an idea. They run to the slide and climb up. They hope the balloon will come closer to them.
+
+"Hello, balloon!" Lily shouts. "Please come here. We want to be your friends."

+Anna and Ben liked to play pirates in the garden. They had a big box that they pretended was their ship. They also had a map that showed them where to find treasure. They dug holes in the dirt and buried coins and jewels that they found in their rooms.
+
+One day, they were playing pirates when they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Spot, who was barking at a squirrel. Spot ran after the squirrel and knocked over their box. Anna and Ben were angry.
+
+"Spot, you disturb our game!" Anna shouted. "Go away!"
+
+But Spot did not go away. He saw something shiny in one of the holes. He dug it out with his paws. It was a necklace that Ben had buried. It was his treasure.
+
+"Spot, give me that!" Ben said. "That is mine!"
+
+But Spot did not give it to him. He ran away with the necklace in his mouth. Ben chased him, but he was too fast. Anna followed them, but she was too slow.
+
+Spot ran to the house, where their grandma was sitting on the porch. She was deaf, so she did not hear Spot or the children. She was knitting a scarf for them. Spot jumped on her lap and licked her face. She smiled and petted him.
+
+"Hello, Spot," she said. "What do you have there?"
+
+She took the necklace from his mouth and looked at it. It was very pretty. It had blue and green beads and a silver clasp. She put it around her neck and admired it.
+
+"What a lovely gift," she said. "Thank you, Spot. You are a good boy."
+
+Spot wagged his tail and snuggled with her. He was happy. He had found a new treasure.
+
+Anna and Ben arrived at the porch, out of breath. They saw Spot and their grandma. They saw the necklace. They were shocked.
+
+"Grandma, that is our treasure!" Anna said. "Spot took it from us!"
+
+"Did he?" Grandma said. "I'm sorry, I did not hear you. He gave it to me. He was very sweet."
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other. They did not know what to do. They did not want to make their grandma sad. They did not want to make Spot sad. They did not want to lose their treasure.

+They decided to let their grandma keep the necklace. They thought it looked nice on her. They thought she deserved a gift. They thought they could find more treasure.
+
+They hugged their grandma and Spot. They said they were sorry for being angry. They said they loved them.

+Lila and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. They liked to run, jump, slide and swing. They had fun and laughed a lot. They also liked to share their snacks and toys.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He was sitting on a bench with a big book. He looked sad and lonely. Lila and Ben wanted to say hello and invite him to play. But when they got closer, they saw that he had a tube in his nose and a bag on his back.
+
+"What is that?" Lila asked, pointing to the tube.
+
+"That is my lung," the boy said. "I have a bad lung. It does not work well. I need this tube to help me breathe."
+
+Lila and Ben felt sorry for the boy. They did not know what to say. They thought that having a bad lung must be hard and scary.
+
+"Can you play with us?" Ben asked.
+
+The boy shook his head. "No, I cannot. I get tired very fast. I cannot run or jump or slide or swing. I can only read and watch."
+
+Lila and Ben looked at each other. They wanted to be kind and make the boy happy. They had an idea.
+
+"Can we read with you?" Lila asked.
+
+"Can we watch with you?" Ben asked.
+
+The boy smiled a wide smile. He nodded. "Yes, you can. That would be nice. Thank you."
+
+Lila and Ben sat next to the boy. They looked at his book. It had many pictures and words. The boy told them what the book was about. It was about animals and plants and places.

+The boy was happy. He had made new friends. He did not feel sad and lonely anymore. He said, "You are very good and nice. I like you a lot."
+
+Lila and Ben were happy too. They had made a new friend. They did not care that he had a bad lung. They liked him a lot. They said, "You are very smart and fun. We like you a lot too."
+
+They hugged and promised to play again. They learned that being kind and friendly is more important than being fast and strong. They also learned that everyone has something to share and something to learn. They were glad that they knew each other.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to climb on the big slide and swing on the ropes. They saw a big bear near the trees. The bear was looking for food.
+
+"Look, a bear!" Tom said. "Let's go and say hello."
+
+"No, Tom, bears are not friendly. They can fight and hurt us. We should stay away," Lily said.
+
+But Tom was not afraid. He was brave and curious. He ran towards the bear and shouted, "Hi, bear! Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The bear did not like Tom's noise. He growled and showed his teeth. He was angry and hungry. He wanted to catch Tom and eat him.
+
+Lily was scared for Tom. She grabbed a stick and ran after him. She threw the stick at the bear and hit him on the nose. The bear was surprised and hurt. He roared and chased Lily and Tom.
+
+Tom and Lily were fast and flexible. They dodged the bear and ran back to the slide. They climbed up and slid down. The bear could not follow them. He was too big and clumsy.
+
+"Go away, bear! You are not nice. You are mean and scary," Tom and Lily yelled.
+
+The bear gave up and left. He went to look for food somewhere else. Tom and Lily hugged each other. They were safe and happy.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You saved me. You are a good friend," Tom said.
+
+"You're welcome, Tom. You are a good friend, too. But next time, don't run to a bear. They are dangerous," Lily said.
+
+They smiled and went to play some more. They had fun in the park. They did not see the bear again.

+
+Sara and Tom feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We were selfish. We wanted to have our things. We did not share. We hurt the book."
+
+Mom says, "I am glad you are sorry. But you need to fix the book. You can use some tape and glue. And you need to say sorry to each other. And you need to play nicely.

+
+Sara and Tom say, "OK, Mom. We will fix the book. We will say sorry. We will play nicely. We will share our things. We will have fun."

+Anna and Ben liked to run. They ran in the park, in the yard, and in the school. They ran fast and had fun. One day, they saw a sign for a race. The sign said, "Run for fun and win a prize!"
+
+Anna and Ben wanted to join the race. They asked their mom and dad if they could. Their mom and dad said yes, but they had to be careful and listen to the rules. They also said they were proud of them and encouraged them to do their best.
+
+The day of the race came. Anna and Ben put on their shoes and clothes. They went to the park with their mom and dad. They saw many other kids who wanted to run too. They also saw a big red ribbon at the end of the path. That was the finish line.
+
+The race started. Anna and Ben ran as fast as they could. They passed some kids and some kids passed them. They saw the big red ribbon getting closer and closer. They felt happy and excited.
+
+But then, they saw a boy who was running very fast. He was faster than everyone else. He was almost at the finish line. He looked back and laughed. He said, "I am the best! You are all slow and foolish!"
+
+Anna and Ben did not like what he said. They felt angry and sad. They wanted to catch up to him and show him he was wrong. They ran faster and faster. They got closer and closer to him.
+
+But then, something happened. The boy who was running very fast tripped and fell. He hurt his knee and cried. He did not reach the finish line. He was not the best. He was foolish.
+
+Anna and Ben saw him fall. They felt sorry for him. They stopped running and went to help him. They asked him if he was okay. They said, "It is not nice to laugh at others. You should be kind and friendly."
+
+The boy who was running very fast felt ashamed. He said, "I am sorry. I was mean and foolish. Thank you for helping me. You are kind and friendly."
+
+Anna and Ben smiled. They said, "You are welcome. We are all friends. We can run together and have fun."
+
+They helped him get up and walk to the finish line. They crossed the big red ribbon together. They did not win the prize, but they did not care. They were happy and proud. They learned a lesson. They encouraged each other and had fun.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They gather sticks and stones and make a fort. They have fun in their fort. They pretend to be kings and queens.
+
+One day, a big dog comes to the park. The dog is wide and loud. It runs to the fort and barks. Lila and Ben are scared. They try to hide in their fort. But the dog is stronger. It breaks the fort with its paws and teeth. It chases Lila and Ben out of the park.
+
+Lila and Ben cry. They lose their fort and their sticks and stones. They run to their moms and dads. They hug them and tell them what happened. Their moms and dads are sad and angry. They say the dog is bad and dangerous. They say they will not go to the park again. Lila and Ben are sad. They have no fun. They have no fort. They have no park.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big pond near their house. They wanted to see what was in the water, so they ran to the pond.
+
+"Look, Ben, there are fish and frogs!" Lily said, pointing to the water.
+
+"Can we catch them?" Ben asked, holding a stick.
+
+"No, we can't. Mom said we have to be nice to animals. But we can peek at them," Lily said, bending down to the edge of the pond.
+
+They peeked at the fish and frogs for a while, and then they saw something else. It was big and green and had a rough skin. It had a long tail and a big mouth with sharp teeth. It was a crocodile!
+
+"Ben, look, a crocodile!" Lily shouted, scared.
+
+"Let's run away!" Ben said, dropping his stick.
+
+But it was too late. The crocodile saw them and jumped out of the water. It opened its mouth and snapped at them. Lily and Ben screamed and tried to run, but the crocodile was faster. It caught them and dragged them into the pond. They never came back.
+Tom and Sue were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, a big dog came and took their ball in its mouth. The dog ran away with the ball. Tom and Sue were very sad and angry. They wanted their ball back.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Tom shouted at the dog. "Give it back!"
+
+But the dog did not listen. It kept running and running. Tom and Sue ran after the dog, but they could not catch it.
+
+They ran so far that they did not know where they were. They looked around and saw many strange houses and cars and people. They did not see the park or their mom or dad. They felt lost and scared.
+
+They started to panic. They did not know what to do. They cried and hugged each other.
+
+"Where are we?" Sue asked. "Where is our ball? Where is mom and dad?"
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "I don't know."
+
+Then, they saw a nice lady walking by. She saw them crying and came to them. She smiled and asked them what was wrong.
+
+"We lost our ball and our way," Tom said. "A big dog took our ball and we ran after it and now we don't know where we are."
+
+"Oh, you poor things," the lady said. "Don't worry, I will help you. What is your name? Where do you live? Where is your mom and dad?"
+
+Tom and Sue told her their name and their address and that their mom and dad were in the park. The lady was very helpful. She called their mom and dad on her phone and told them where they were. She also gave them some cookies and water and a hug.
+
+Soon, their mom and dad came and picked them up. They were very happy to see them. They thanked the lady for helping them. They also found their ball. The dog had dropped it in a nearby yard. They took their ball and went home.
+
+Tom and Sue learned a lesson. They learned to be careful with their ball and not to run after strange dogs. They also learned to be thankful for helpful people. They hugged their mom and dad and their ball and went to bed. They had a big adventure, but they were glad it was over.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play and learn together. Today, they have to study for a test. The test is about spots. Spots are small dots of different colors.
+
+Lily and Tom look at a book with many pictures of spots. They see spots on animals, fruits, flowers and clothes. They try to remember the names of the spots and what they mean.
+
+"Look, Tom, this is a ladybug. It has red and black spots. The spots help it hide from birds," Lily says.
+
+"I know, Lily, and this is a banana. It has brown spots. The spots show that it is ripe and sweet," Tom says.
+
+They study some more, but then they see a picture that is difficult. It has many spots of different colors, but they do not know what it is.
+
+"What is this, Lily? It has blue, green, yellow and pink spots. Is it an animal, a fruit, a flower or a clothes?" Tom asks.
+
+Lily looks at the picture and thinks hard. She does not know either. She shakes her head.
+
+"I don't know, Tom. It is very difficult. Maybe it is a toy or a painting. Do you think the teacher will ask us about it?" Lily asks.
+
+Tom shrugs his shoulders. He hopes not. He does not like difficult questions. He likes easy questions.
+
+"Let's skip this one, Lily. Maybe it is not important. Let's study the other pictures. They are easier and more fun," Tom says.
+
+Lily agrees. They turn the page and study the other pictures. They see spots on a leopard, a strawberry, a sunflower and a dress. They smile and say the names of the spots and what they mean. They are happy and confident. They think they are ready for the test. They hope they will do well. They hope they will not see the difficult picture again.
+Lily wanted to play with her new doll. She loved her new doll very much. She gave her new doll a name, a dress, and a hug. She took her new doll to the park with her mom.
+
+At the park, Lily saw a boy. The boy had a big truck. The boy saw Lily's new doll. He liked Lily's new doll. He came to Lily and said, "Can I borrow your new doll?"
+
+Lily did not want to share her new doll. She said, "No, this is my new doll. You have a big truck. Go play with your big truck."
+
+The boy did not listen. He grabbed Lily's new doll. He ran away with Lily's new doll. Lily was very sad. She cried and cried. She ran after the boy.
+
+The boy was not careful. He tripped and fell. He dropped Lily's new doll. Lily's new doll hit a rock. Lily's new doll broke. Her head came off. Her dress ripped. Her lip cut. Lily's new doll was not new anymore. Lily's new doll was ruined.
+
+Lily reached the boy and her new doll. She was very angry. She yelled at the boy. She said, "You are a bad boy! You broke my new doll! You hurt my new doll! Give me back my new doll!"
+
+The boy was scared. He said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I just wanted to play with your new doll. I didn't mean to break your new doll. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+But Lily was too mad. She did not forgive the boy. She took her new doll and ran back to her mom. She hugged her mom and cried. She said, "Mom, the boy broke my new doll. My new doll is not new anymore. My new doll is not happy anymore. I'm not happy anymore."
+
+The end.
+Tom and Sam were friends who liked to play cowboys. They had hats, boots and pistols that made loud noises. One day, they found a big rock in the park that looked like a treasure. They wanted to split it and see what was inside.
+
+"Let me use my pistol to break it," Tom said. He aimed at the rock and pulled the trigger. Bang! The rock did not split. It only made a dent.
+
+"No, let me try," Sam said. He took his pistol and shot at the rock. Bang! The rock did not split either. It only made another dent.
+
+They shot at the rock again and again, but it did not split. They got tired and sad. They thought their pistols were not useful.
+
+Then, they saw a girl walking by with a hammer. She saw the rock and asked, "What are you doing?"
+
+"We are trying to split this rock, but our pistols don't work," Tom said.
+
+"Can I help you?" the girl asked. "I have a hammer. It can split rocks."
+
+"Really?" Sam asked. "Can we see?"
+
+The girl nodded and gave them the hammer. Tom and Sam took turns to hit the rock with the hammer. Crack! The rock split in half. They saw shiny stones and coins inside. They were happy and surprised.
+
+"Wow, you have a useful hammer!" Tom said.
+
+"Thank you for helping us!" Sam said.
+
+"You're welcome," the girl said. "Do you want to share the treasure?"
+
+"Yes, of course!" Tom and Sam said. They gave the girl some stones and coins. They also gave her their pistols to play with.
+
+They became friends and played cowboys and treasure hunters together. They learned that hammers can be more useful than pistols. They also learned that sharing can be more fun than fighting.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toy soldiers. They had many soldiers of different colors and shapes, and they made them fight and march and hide. One day, they found a new soldier in a box. He was big and shiny and had a sword and a helmet. Tom and Sam wanted to play with him, but they did not know who he belonged to.
+
+"Maybe he is a gift for us," Tom said.
+
+"Or maybe he is lost," Sam said.
+
+They decided to ask their mom, who was in the kitchen. They ran to her with the new soldier and showed him to her.
+
+"Mom, look what we found! A new soldier! Can we keep him?" Tom asked.
+
+"Where did you find him?" Mom asked.
+
+"In a box in the living room," Sam said.
+
+Mom looked at the soldier and smiled. She said, "This soldier is not a toy. He is a decoration for the Christmas tree. He belongs to your grandpa, who was a real soldier a long time ago. He gave him to me when I was a little girl, and he told me a story about him."
+
+"What story?" Tom and Sam asked.
+
+Mom said, "The story is that this soldier was very brave and kind. He fought in a war, but he also helped people who were hurt or hungry. One day, he was in a deep forest, and he saw a little bird that had fallen from its nest. The bird was cold and scared, and it could not fly. The soldier felt sorry for the bird, and he decided to feed it and keep it warm. He took the bird in his hand and gave it some bread crumbs from his pocket. He also wrapped it in his scarf and put it in his helmet. He carried the bird with him until he found a safe place to put it back in its nest. The bird was very happy and thanked the soldier with a song."
+
+Tom and Sam listened to the story with wide eyes. They looked at the soldier and the bird on his helmet. They felt a warm feeling in their hearts.
+
+"Wow, he is a good soldier," Tom said.
+
+"Yes, he is," Sam said.
+
+Mom said, "Yes, he is. And he taught me a lesson. He taught me that even in hard times, we can be kind and help others who need us. He taught me that kindness is stronger than violence, and that love is stronger than hate. He taught me that we can make the world a better place with our actions."
+
+Tom and Sam nodded. They understood the lesson. They said, "We want to be like him. We want to be kind and help others. We want to make the world a better place."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I'm proud of you, my boys. You have learned a valuable lesson. And I'm sure your grandpa would be proud of you too. He would be happy to see you play with his soldier, but not to make him fight. He would want you to make him a friend."
+
+Tom and Sam smiled. They said, "Yes, mom. We will make him a friend. And we will share him with each other. And we will tell him stories too."
+
+They took the soldier and went back to the living room. They put him on the table and sat next to him. They told him stories about their family, their friends, their dreams. They laughed and sang and played. They made him a friend. And the soldier smiled. He felt happy and loved. He felt like he had found a new home.
+Lily liked to play with puzzles. She had many puzzles with animals, cars, and flowers. She could make the puzzles very fast. But she was shy. She did not like to talk to other kids.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a big puzzle on the ground. It had many pieces and colors. She wanted to try it. She walked to the puzzle and picked up a piece.
+
+"Hi, do you want to play with me?" a voice said. Lily looked up and saw a boy. He had brown hair and blue eyes. He smiled at her. He was holding another piece of the puzzle.
+
+Lily felt scared. She did not know the boy. She wanted to run away. But she also wanted to play with the puzzle. She did not know what to do.
+
+"Come on, it's fun. Look, this piece goes here." the boy said. He put his piece next to Lily's piece. They matched. The puzzle made a sound. It was a bell. It rang.
+
+Lily was surprised. She liked the sound. She looked at the boy. He was still smiling. He did not seem mean. He seemed nice.
+
+"Wow, that's cool. Do you want to find more pieces?" the boy asked.
+
+Lily nodded. She felt a little less shy. She liked the puzzle. She liked the bell. She liked the boy. She decided to play with him. She said, "Yes, let's play."
+Sara liked to play with her toy cars. She had many cars of different colors and sizes. She liked to make them zoom and crash and honk. She also liked to pretend that she was a queen and that her cars were her royal guards.
+
+One day, she was playing with her cars on the floor of her room. She had a big pink car that was her favorite. She called it her modern queen car. She made it go fast and loud. She said, "I am the queen of the cars! All the other cars must follow me and do what I say!"
+
+But then, she saw a small blue car that was hiding under her bed. She did not like that car. It was old and dirty and had a broken wheel. She said, "You are a bad car! You are not part of my kingdom! You must go away!"
+
+She reached for the blue car, but it moved away from her. She tried to catch it, but it was too fast. She got angry and chased it around the room. She said, "Stop, you naughty car! I will get you!"
+
+The blue car ran to the door and tried to escape. But Sara was faster. She grabbed her modern queen car and threw it at the blue car. She hoped to hit it and make it stop. But she missed. Her modern queen car flew past the blue car and hit the door. It made a loud bang and bounced back. It hit Sara on the head and made her fall down.
+
+Sara cried. She felt a bump on her head and saw her modern queen car on the floor. It had a dent and a scratch. She was sad and sorry. She said, "Oh no, my modern queen car! I broke it! I was mean and silly!"
+
+The blue car saw Sara crying. It felt sorry for her too. It rolled back to her and nudged her gently. It said, "Beep beep. Don't cry, Sara. I'm sorry I hid from you. I was scared and lonely. Can we be friends?"
+
+Sara looked at the blue car. It was old and dirty and had a broken wheel. But it was also kind and brave and friendly. She smiled and wiped her tears. She said, "Yes, we can be friends. I'm sorry I threw my car at you. I was angry and rude. Can you forgive me?"
+
+The blue car said, "Beep beep. Yes, I forgive you. You are a good queen. Can I be your royal guard?"
+
+Sara nodded and hugged the blue car. She said, "Yes, you can be my royal guard. You are a good car. And you know what? You can also be my modern car. Because you can do something that my other cars can't do. You can reverse!"
+
+She showed the blue car how to move backwards and forwards. They laughed and played together. They forgot about the dent and the scratch and the bump. They were happy and friends. They were the modern queen and the modern car.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a shiny key in their dad's drawer. They wondered what it could open. They decided to try it on different doors and boxes in the house.
+
+They tried the key on the front door, but it did not fit. They tried the key on the toy box, but it did not fit. They tried the key on the closet, but it did not fit. They tried the key on the cookie jar, but it did not fit. They were getting tired and hungry.
+
+They saw a glass display on the shelf. It had a beautiful clock inside. They thought maybe the key could open the display and they could play with the clock. They climbed on a chair and reached for the display. But they were not careful and they knocked it over. The display broke and the clock fell on the floor. They heard a loud crash and a sad tick-tock.
+
+Their dad came running and saw the mess. He was very angry and sad. He said, "That was my grandfather's clock. It was very old and precious. How could you break it? And what are you doing with my key? That is the key to my safe. It is very important and secret. You should not touch it. You are very naughty and careless."
+
+Tom and Lily felt very sorry and scared. They said, "We are sorry, dad. We did not know. We just wanted to play with the key and the clock. We did not mean to break it. Please forgive us."
+
+Their dad sighed and hugged them. He said, "I forgive you, but you have to learn to respect other people's things. You have to ask before you touch something that is not yours. You have to be careful and gentle with things that are fragile and valuable. You have to be honest and tell me if you make a mistake. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and said, "We understand, dad. We will be good and listen to you. We love you, dad."
+
+Their dad smiled and said, "I love you too, Tom and Lily. Now let's have some cookies and milk. But not from the cookie jar. That is too bitter for you."
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a squirrel. The squirrel had a peanut in its mouth. It ran up a tree.
+
+"Look, a squirrel!" Lily said. "It has a peanut. I like peanuts. Do you like peanuts, Ben?"
+
+"Yes, I like peanuts too," Ben said. "But we can't take the squirrel's peanut. That is not nice."
+
+Lily nodded. She and Ben watched the squirrel. The squirrel hid the peanut in a hole. Then it ran down the tree. It looked for more peanuts.
+
+Lily and Ben followed the squirrel. They wanted to see where it went. They forgot about their toys. They forgot about their moms. They forgot about the time.
+
+Soon, the sun was low. The air was cold. Lily and Ben felt hungry. They did not see the squirrel anymore. They did not know where they were.
+
+"Where are we, Ben?" Lily asked. "I want to go home. I want to see my mom. I want to eat."
+
+"I don't know, Lily," Ben said. "I want to go home too. I want to see my mom. I want to eat. I want to be warm."
+
+They looked around. They saw a big house. They saw a light. They saw a door. They walked to the door. They knocked.
+
+A lady opened the door. She saw Lily and Ben. She smiled.
+
+"Hello, little ones," she said. "Who are you? Where are you from?"
+
+Lily and Ben told her their names. They told her they were lost. They told her they followed a squirrel.
+
+The lady felt sorry for them. She invited them in. She gave them warm milk and cookies. She called their moms. She told them where they were.
+
+Lily and Ben thanked the lady. They felt happy. They felt safe. They felt warm.
+
+Their moms came to pick them up. They hugged them. They scolded them. They loved them.
+
+Lily and Ben said goodbye to the lady. They said goodbye to each other. They learned a lesson. They did not forget it.
+
+They never followed a squirrel again.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, they see a big brown mark on the wall. They wonder who made it.
+
+"Did you make the mark?" Tom asks Sam.
+
+"No, I did not. Did you?" Sam asks Tom.
+
+"No, I did not. Maybe it was Ben. He likes to draw on walls," Tom says.
+
+They go to find Ben. They see him playing with a red car. They show him the mark.
+
+"Did you make the mark?" Tom asks Ben.
+
+Ben looks at the mark. He shakes his head. "No, I did not. It was not me," he says.
+
+"Who was it then?" Sam asks.
+
+Ben points to a corner. "It was Lily. She has a brown crayon. I saw her do it," he says.
+
+They go to the corner. They see Lily sitting with a brown crayon and a paper. They show her the mark.
+
+"Did you make the mark?" Sam asks Lily.
+
+Lily looks at the mark. She nods. "Yes, I did. I'm sorry. I wanted to draw a bear, but I ran out of paper. I did not mean to make a mess," she says.
+
+Tom and Sam are angry. They tell Lily that she should not draw on walls. They tell her that she should say sorry to the teacher and help clean the mark.
+
+Lily feels bad. She knows she did wrong. She says sorry to Tom and Sam. She says sorry to the teacher. She helps clean the mark.
+
+The teacher is happy. She thanks Lily for being honest and helpful. She gives her a new paper and a new crayon. She tells her to draw on the paper, not on the wall.
+
+Lily smiles. She draws a bear on the paper. She gives it to Tom and Sam. They smile too. They forgive Lily. They play with her and Ben. They learn to be nice and share.
+
+The end.
+One day, a boy named Tom went to the farm with his dad. He liked to see the animals, especially the sheep. They were white and fluffy and made funny sounds. Tom wanted to pet them, but his dad said he had to be careful.
+
+"Tom, sheep are good animals, but they can be scared of people. You have to be gentle and quiet when you approach them. And don't twist their wool or pull their tails, that hurts them," his dad said.
+
+Tom nodded and followed his dad to the fence. He saw a sheep that looked friendly and reached out his hand. The sheep came closer and sniffed his hand. Tom smiled and stroked its head. The sheep liked it and bleated softly.
+
+"Good boy, Tom. You are being nice to the sheep. The sheep likes you too," his dad said.
+
+Tom felt happy and wanted to hug the sheep. He wrapped his arms around its neck and squeezed. The sheep felt scared and tried to get away. It kicked and pushed Tom with its head. Tom fell down and cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The sheep hurt me! It's a bad sheep!" Tom shouted.
+
+His dad ran to him and picked him up. He checked if he was hurt and hugged him.
+
+"Tom, I'm sorry you got hurt. But the sheep is not bad. It was just scared. You hugged it too hard and it felt trapped. You have to respect the sheep's space and feelings. How would you feel if someone hugged you too hard and didn't let you go?" his dad asked.
+
+Tom thought for a moment and realized he wouldn't like it either. He felt sorry for the sheep and wanted to say sorry too.
+
+"I'm sorry, sheep. I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to be your friend. Can we be friends?" Tom said.
+
+The sheep looked at Tom and saw that he was sincere. It came closer and licked his hand. Tom smiled and gently rubbed its nose. The sheep smiled too and bleated softly.
+
+"Good boy, Tom. You are being brave and kind. The sheep forgives you and wants to be your friend too," his dad said.
+
+Tom learned a lesson that day. He learned to be gentle and respectful to the animals. He also learned to say sorry when he made a mistake. He and the sheep became good friends and played together every time he visited the farm.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They liked to make houses with sticks and leaves. Lily found a big stick and put it on top of their house. Ben found a small stick and wanted to put it next to Lily's stick.
+
+"Move, Lily!" Ben yelled. "I want to put my stick here!"
+
+Lily did not move. She liked her stick. She thought it was the best stick. She yelled back, "No, Ben! This is my spot! Your stick is too small!"
+
+Ben was angry. He pushed Lily's stick with his stick. Lily's stick fell down and broke. It was fragile. Lily was sad. She cried.
+
+"Why did you do that, Ben?" Lily sobbed. "You broke my stick! You are mean!"
+
+Ben felt sorry. He did not mean to break Lily's stick. He wanted to make Lily happy. He looked around and saw something shiny. It was a glass bottle. It had sunshine inside. Ben picked it up and ran to Lily.
+
+"Look, Lily!" Ben said. "I found something for you! It is a sunshine bottle! It is pretty and bright! You can have it!"
+
+Lily stopped crying. She looked at the bottle. It was pretty and bright. She smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Ben!" Lily said. "It is a nice bottle! I like it!"
+
+Ben smiled too. He hugged Lily. They were friends again. They put the bottle on their house. It made their house shine. They played happily. They did not yell anymore.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the pool. They have a game. They see who can swim faster. They say "Ready, set, go!" and then they swim.
+
+Lily is very good at swimming. She is fast and strong. She always wins the game. Ben is not so good at swimming. He is slow and tired. He always loses the game. He is sad.
+
+One day, Ben has an idea. He says to Lily, "Let's play a new game. Let's see who can hold their breath longer under the water. The one who comes up first loses. Do you want to play?"
+
+Lily is excited. She likes new games. She says, "Yes, let's play. I will win this game too. You are no match for me."
+
+They go to the deep end of the pool. They take a big breath and go under the water. They close their eyes and count in their heads. Lily counts to ten, then twenty, then thirty. She thinks, "I am winning. Ben will come up soon. He can't hold his breath as long as me."
+
+But Ben does not come up. He stays under the water. He does not count. He does not think. He does not breathe. He is still and quiet.
+
+Lily opens her eyes and looks for Ben. She does not see him. She is scared. She comes up and shouts, "Ben, where are you? Ben, come up! Ben, please!"
+
+But Ben does not come up. He does not hear her. He does not answer. He is gone.
+
+Lily cries. She does not want to play anymore. She does not want to win anymore. She wants Ben back. But Ben is not coming back. Lily has won the game, but she has lost her friend.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play on the porch. They have a ball, a doll, and a car. They take turns with the toys. They are kind to each other.
+
+One day, a big dog comes to the porch. He is black and brown. He has a loud bark. He wants to play with the toys. He runs to the ball and bites it. The ball pops. Lily and Ben are scared. They run to the door.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Lily yells. "You are bad! You broke our ball!"
+
+The dog does not listen. He goes to the doll and the car. He shakes them with his teeth. The doll and the car break. Lily and Ben are sad. They cry.
+
+"Mommy, mommy!" Ben calls. "Help us! There is a big dog on the porch!"
+
+Mommy hears Ben. She comes to the door. She sees the dog. She sees the broken toys. She is angry.
+
+"Shoo, dog!" Mommy says. "You are not welcome here! You are mean! You hurt our toys!"
+
+The dog hears Mommy. He is afraid. He drops the toys. He runs away. He does not come back.
+
+Mommy hugs Lily and Ben. She is sorry. She is kind.
+
+"I'm sorry, my loves," Mommy says. "The dog was naughty. He did not know how to share. He did not know how to be kind. I will get you new toys. Do you want to go to the store with me?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They wipe their tears. They smile.
+
+"Yes, Mommy," they say. "Thank you, Mommy. You are the best. You are kind."
+
+They hold Mommy's hand. They go to the store. They see new toys. They are happy. They are kind.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food with pots and pans. They opened and closed the cabinet doors and took out what they needed.
+
+"Look, I made soup!" Tom said, holding a pot with water and some toys. "Do you want some?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily said, grabbing a spoon. "Thank you, Tom. You are a good chef."
+
+They sat on the floor and pretended to eat the soup. They made slurping noises and said it was yummy. They were having fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud crash. One of the cabinet doors had fallen off its hinges and landed on the floor. It was broken. The pots and pans inside spilled out and made a big mess.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom and Lily said together. They looked at the broken cabinet and felt scared. They knew they were not supposed to play with the cabinets. They knew their mom would be angry.
+
+They heard their mom coming. They quickly hid behind the table and hoped she would not see them.
+
+"Tom? Lily? What happened here?" their mom asked, seeing the broken cabinet and the mess. She sounded upset.
+
+Tom and Lily did not answer. They felt sorry. They knew they had done something bad. They wished they could fix the cabinet and clean the mess.
+
+Their mom looked around and saw them hiding. She walked over to them and knelt down.
+
+"Tom, Lily, come out. I need to talk to you," she said, softly.
+
+Tom and Lily came out. They looked at their mom with sad eyes.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We were playing and we broke the cabinet. We did not mean to," Tom said.
+
+"We wanted to be chefs and make soup. But we made a big mess. We are sorry, mom," Lily said.
+
+Their mom sighed. She was not happy, but she was not angry either. She hugged them and said, "I know you are sorry. And I know you were playing. But you have to be careful. The cabinets are not toys. They can break and hurt you. And you have to clean up after yourselves. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They said, "Yes, mom. We understand. We will be careful. And we will help you clean up."
+
+Their mom smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom and Lily. You are good kids. And you can still be chefs, but only with the things I give you. OK?"
+
+Tom and Lily smiled back. They said, "OK, mom. Thank you, mom. We love you, mom."
+
+They hugged their mom and helped her clean up. They learned their lesson. And they still had fun.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the garden. One day, they see a big red ball on the roof of the shed. They want to get the ball and play with it.
+
+They look for a ladder. They find one near the fence. It is heavy and hard to move. They try to push it and pull it. They are not strong enough. They are sad.
+
+They see their dad in the garage. He is fixing his bike. They run to him and ask for help. He smiles and puts down his tools. He is patient and kind. He follows them to the shed.
+
+He lifts the ladder and leans it against the roof. He climbs up and gets the ball. He throws it to Lily and Ben. They catch it and cheer. They thank their dad and hug him.
+
+They run to the grass and play with the ball. They are happy. They solve their problem with the ladder and their dad.
+Anna liked to organize her toys in her room. She had a box for her dolls, a shelf for her books, and a basket for her blocks. She felt happy when everything was neat and tidy.
+
+One day, her big brother Tom came into her room. He was bored and wanted to play. He saw Anna's toys and said, "These are too babyish. Let me show you something fun." He took out a book from his backpack and opened it. "This is a poem book. Poems are words that rhyme and sound nice. Listen to this one."
+
+He read a poem that was about a cat and a hat. Anna did not understand the poem. She did not like the words. She thought they were silly and confusing. She said, "I don't like poems. I like my toys. Please put the book back and leave my room."
+
+Tom did not listen. He said, "Poems are better than toys. You need to learn them. I will teach you." He took Anna's toys and threw them on the floor. He mixed them up and made a mess. He said, "Now you have to find the toys that rhyme. Like doll and ball, or book and hook. This is how you play with poems."
+
+Anna felt miserable. She did not want to play with poems. She wanted to play with her toys. She wanted to organize them again. She started to cry. She said, "Stop it, Tom. You are mean. You are ruining my toys. Go away."
+
+Tom saw that Anna was crying. He felt sorry. He realized that he was being mean. He said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I was just trying to have fun. I didn't mean to make you cry. Here, let me help you organize your toys again. Maybe we can find a poem that you like later." He picked up the toys and put them back in their places. He hugged Anna and said, "I love you, sis. You are smart and sweet. You can like whatever you want."
+
+Anna stopped crying. She felt better. She hugged Tom and said, "I love you, too, bro. You are funny and kind. You can teach me poems later. But only if I want to." They smiled and went downstairs to have a snack.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play sport together. They play ball, run, jump and have fun. Sometimes they play with other kids, sometimes they play alone.
+
+One day, they go to the park to play sport. They see a big slide. They want to try it. They climb up the stairs and wait for their turn. Lily goes first. She sits on the slide and slides down fast. She laughs and feels happy.
+
+"Tom, come on! It is fun!" she shouts to Tom.
+
+Tom nods and sits on the slide. But he feels scared. The slide is too high and too fast for him. He holds on tight to the sides. He does not laugh. He cries and feels sad.
+
+"Help! Help!" he screams.
+
+Lily hears Tom and runs to him. She sees him crying on the slide. She feels sorry for him. She remembers that Tom does not like high things. She remembers that he likes to play ball more.
+
+"Tom, it is okay. I am here. You can do it. Just let go and slide down. I will catch you." she says to Tom.
+
+Tom looks at Lily. He trusts her. He lets go and slides down. Lily catches him and hugs him.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I am sorry I cried. I was scared." he says to Lily.
+
+"It is okay, Tom. I understand. You are brave. I am proud of you. Do you want to play ball now?" she says to Tom.
+
+"Yes, please. I like to play ball with you. You are a good friend too." he says to Lily.
+
+They smile and run to the ball. They play sport and have fun. They forget about the slide. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom liked to play in the junkyard. They liked to climb on the old cars and trucks and pretend they were driving. They liked to find shiny things and toys in the trash. They liked to scatter rocks and cans and make loud noises.
+
+One day, they saw a big tire leaning on a fence. It looked like a fun thing to roll and bounce. They ran to the tire and pushed it with all their might. The tire started to roll down the hill, faster and faster. Lily and Tom laughed and chased after it.
+
+But they did not see the road at the bottom of the hill. They did not see the car coming fast. They did not hear the horn or the brakes. They only saw the tire hit the car and make a big crash. The car spun and flipped and landed on its roof. Lily and Tom stopped and stared. They saw smoke and fire and glass. They saw blood and tears and pain. They felt scared and sorry and sad.
+
+The driver of the car was very hurt. He could not move or talk. He could only groan and bleed. He had a wife and a baby at home. He was on his way to see them. He never saw them again.
+
+Lily and Tom ran away from the junkyard. They never played there again. They never forgot what they did. They never forgave themselves. They learned a hard lesson. They wished they had been more careful. They wished they had not scattered the tire.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big bottle filled with water and glitter. They called it their magic bottle, because it sparkled and swirled when they shook it.
+
+One day, they decided to spend the afternoon in the garden with their magic bottle. They took turns shaking it and watching the glitter dance. They pretended it was a fairy or a star or a snowflake. They were very happy and gentle with their bottle, because they did not want to break it.
+
+"Look, Anna, it's a rainbow!" Ben said, holding the bottle up to the sun.
+
+"Wow, it's so pretty!" Anna said, reaching for the bottle.
+
+But as they passed the bottle to each other, they did not see the big rock on the ground. Ben tripped over the rock and fell down. The bottle flew out of his hand and landed on the grass with a loud crack.
+
+"Oh no!" Anna cried, running to Ben. "Are you okay?"
+
+Ben rubbed his knee, which was scraped and bleeding. He nodded, but he looked very sad. He saw the bottle lying on the grass, broken and leaking. The water and glitter were spilling out, making a wet and shiny mess.
+
+"Our magic bottle!" Ben sobbed. "It's gone!"
+
+Anna hugged him and tried to comfort him. She felt sorry for him and for their bottle. She wished they could fix it, but she knew they could not.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," she said. "It was an accident. We still have each other, right?"
+
+Ben nodded again, wiping his tears. He hugged her back and smiled a little.
+
+"Right," he said. "We still have each other. And we can make a new magic bottle, right?"
+
+Anna smiled too. She nodded and kissed his cheek.
+
+"Right," she said. "We can make a new magic bottle. And we'll be more careful next time, right?"
+
+They both laughed and agreed. They got up and went inside to get a band-aid for Ben's knee and a new bottle for their magic. They learned a lesson that day, but they did not lose their fun. They still liked to play together, and they still loved their magic bottle.
+One day, a blue hippo was walking by the river. He saw a baby bird that had fallen from its nest. The baby bird was crying and scared. The blue hippo felt sorry for the baby bird and wanted to help.
+
+"Hello, little bird. Why are you crying?" the blue hippo asked.
+
+"I fell from my nest and I can't fly. I miss my mommy and daddy," the baby bird said.
+
+"Don't worry, little bird. I can carry you back to your nest. Hop on my back and hold on tight," the blue hippo said.
+
+The baby bird was happy and thanked the blue hippo. He climbed on his back and held on to his ears. The blue hippo walked carefully to the tree where the nest was. He lifted his head and let the baby bird jump into the nest.
+
+"Thank you, blue hippo. You are very kind and strong," the baby bird said.
+
+"You're welcome, little bird. I'm glad you are safe and happy. Remember to be careful and stay in your nest until you can fly," the blue hippo said.
+
+The baby bird nodded and waved goodbye to the blue hippo. The blue hippo smiled and walked away. He felt good and proud for helping the baby bird.
+
+The moral of the story is: It is good to help others in need, no matter how different they are.
+Anna liked to feed the ducks at the pond. She always brought some bread and threw it into the water. The ducks came and ate the bread and made happy noises. Anna smiled and clapped her hands.
+
+But one day, a big boy came and took Anna's bread. He said it was his and he ran away. Anna was sad and angry. She wanted her bread back. She followed the big boy and saw him hide behind a tree. He had a belt around his waist with many things on it. Anna saw her bread on his belt.
+
+Anna was brave and sneaky. She crept behind the big boy and grabbed her bread from his belt. The big boy felt something and turned around. He saw Anna and shouted.
+
+"Hey, give me that! That's mine!"
+
+"No, it's mine! You took it from me!" Anna said.
+
+They both pulled the bread and it tore in half. The big boy was mad and tried to hit Anna. Anna dodged and ran away. She ran back to the pond and threw the half bread to the ducks. The ducks came and ate the half bread and made happy noises. Anna smiled and clapped her hands.
+
+She had won. She had fed the ducks. She had her bread back. She did not like the big boy. He was mean and greedy. She hoped he would not come back. She liked the ducks. They were nice and hungry. She hoped they would come back. She would bring more bread for them.
+Sara was a curious girl who liked to examine everything. She had a big box of toys in her room, but she always wanted to see what was in her mom's closet. One day, when her mom was busy in the kitchen, Sara sneaked into her bedroom and opened the closet door. She saw many pretty things, like dresses, shoes, and hats. But what caught her eye was a red velvet box on the top shelf.
+
+Sara climbed on a chair and reached for the box. She opened it and saw a shiny necklace with a big stone. She thought it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. She wanted to try it on, so she took it out of the box and put it around her neck. She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. She felt like a princess.
+
+But then she heard her mom's footsteps coming closer. She got scared and tried to take off the necklace. But it was too tight and she couldn't undo the clasp. She panicked and pulled harder, but the necklace broke and the stone fell on the floor. She heard a loud crack and saw the stone split in two. She gasped and started to cry.
+
+Her mom entered the room and saw the mess. She was very angry and sad. She asked Sara what she had done and why she had touched her necklace. Sara sobbed and said she was sorry. She said she was curious and wanted to examine the necklace. She said she didn't mean to break it.
+
+Her mom sighed and hugged her. She said she understood that Sara was curious, but she should have asked before touching her things. She said the necklace was very special to her, because it was a gift from her grandma, who had passed away. She said the stone was very rare and valuable, and now it was ruined. She said she loved Sara, but she was very disappointed in her.
+
+Sara felt very bad and wished she could fix the necklace. She said she loved her mom and her grandma, and she would never touch her mom's things again without permission. She said she would try to be more careful and respectful. She asked her mom if she could forgive her.
+
+Her mom smiled and kissed her. She said she forgave her, but she hoped she learned her lesson. She said she would keep the broken necklace as a reminder of her grandma and of Sara's mistake. She said she would also look for a new necklace that they could share and enjoy together. She said she was proud of Sara for being honest and brave. She said they would always be a family, no matter what.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big red flower with a shiny green stem. Lily wanted to smell it, but Ben said no.
+
+"That flower is poison. It can make you sick or die. Mama told me so," Ben said.
+
+Lily did not believe him. She thought he was lying. She wanted to touch the flower. She was not patient. She said to Ben, "You are silly. That flower is pretty. It is not poison. I will show you."
+
+She ran to the flower and picked it. She put it to her nose and sniffed. She smiled at Ben and said, "See? It smells nice. You are wrong."
+
+But then, she felt a sharp pain in her nose and mouth. She dropped the flower and screamed. Ben ran to her and saw blood coming out of her nose and mouth. He was scared. He shouted for Mama.
+
+Mama came and saw Lily and the flower. She knew what happened. She was angry and sad. She picked up Lily and ran to the car. She said to Ben, "Stay here. I will take Lily to the doctor. She ate poison. She may not live."
+
+Ben did not reply. He was shocked and sorry. He wished he had stopped Lily. He wished he had not lied. The flower was not poison. It was a rose. He had said it was poison because he wanted it for himself. He had been selfish and mean. Now, he had lost his sister. He cried and cried. He hated the flower. He hated himself. He learned a hard lesson. The end.
+Tom and Lily were friends. They liked to play in the park near their homes. One day, they saw a big sign that said "West". Tom was curious. He wanted to see what was west.
+
+"Let's go west, Lily," he said. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+Lily was scared. She knew they were not allowed to leave the park. She shook her head.
+
+"No, Tom, we can't go west. Mom and Dad will be angry. They will worry about us. West is too far. We don't know what is there."
+
+Tom did not listen. He was foolish. He thought he was brave. He ran to the sign and followed the road west. He said to Lily, "Bye, Lily. I'm going west. You are a baby. You are afraid of everything."
+
+Lily was sad. She did not want to lose her friend. She did not want to be a baby. She wanted to be brave, too. But she also wanted to be good. She did not want to make Mom and Dad angry. She did not want to worry them. She stayed in the park and waited for Tom.
+
+Tom ran and ran. He saw many things he did not know. He saw big cars and big buildings and big people. He saw loud noises and bright lights and strange smells. He was confused. He was scared. He wanted to go back to the park. He wanted to see Lily. He wanted to see Mom and Dad. But he did not know how to go back. He did not remember the way. He was lost.
+
+He cried and cried. He wished he had listened to Lily. He wished he had not been foolish. He wished he had not left the park. He wished he had not gone west. He was sorry. He was lonely. He was sorry.
+Lila and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park every day. They have a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They also like to gaze at the sky and look for shapes in the clouds.
+
+One day, they see a big truck in the park. It has a lot of equipment on it. Lila and Ben are curious. They run to the truck and peek inside. They see a lot of tools, wires and boxes. They wonder what they are for.
+
+"Hello, kids," a man says. He comes out of the truck. He is wearing a yellow helmet and a blue suit. He smiles at Lila and Ben. "Do you want to know what I'm doing?"
+
+"Yes, please," Lila and Ben say. They nod their heads.
+
+"I'm here to fix the lights in the park," the man says. "Some of them are broken and some of them are old. I need to replace them with new and reliable ones. That way, the park will be bright and safe at night."
+
+"Wow, that's cool," Lila and Ben say. They are impressed.
+
+"Can we help you?" Ben asks. He likes to help.
+
+"Sure, you can help me," the man says. He gives them each a small flashlight. "You can use these to check if the lights are working. Just point them at the lights and see if they turn on."
+
+"Okay, we can do that," Lila and Ben say. They take the flashlights and run to the nearest light. They point their flashlights at it and press the button. The light turns on.
+
+"Yay, it works!" Lila and Ben cheer. They clap their hands.
+
+"Good job, kids," the man says. He gives them a thumbs up. "You are very helpful. Let's go to the next one."
+
+Lila and Ben follow the man to the next light. They check it with their flashlights. They have a lot of fun helping the man fix the lights in the park. They feel proud and happy. They also learn a new word: reliable.
+Tom and Sam were friends who liked to play with cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They liked to make them speed on the floor and pretend they were racing.
+
+One day, Tom found a new car in his toy box. It was shiny and red, and it had a bulb on top. Tom was very happy and wanted to show it to Sam. He ran to Sam's house with the car in his hand.
+
+"Look, Sam, look at my new car!" Tom said. "It has a bulb that can light up!"
+
+Sam looked at the car and was confused. He had never seen a car with a bulb before. He wondered what it was for.
+
+"Can I see it?" Sam asked.
+
+"Sure, here you go," Tom said, and gave the car to Sam.
+
+Sam took the car and pressed a button. The bulb flashed and made a loud noise. Sam was scared and dropped the car. The car broke and the bulb fell off.
+
+"Oh no, what did you do?" Tom cried. "You broke my new car!"
+
+"I'm sorry, I didn't know it would do that!" Sam said. "I was just curious about the bulb!"
+
+Tom was angry and sad. He picked up the pieces of his car and the bulb. He ran back to his house and slammed the door.
+
+Sam felt bad and wanted to say sorry. He knocked on Tom's door, but Tom did not answer. Sam went home and thought about what he did.
+
+The next day, Sam came to Tom's house again. He brought a gift for Tom. It was a new car, just like the one he broke. He also brought some glue and a screwdriver.
+
+"Tom, can you please open the door?" Sam said. "I have something for you."
+
+Tom heard Sam's voice and opened the door. He saw the new car and the tools.
+
+"What is this?" Tom asked.
+
+"It's a new car for you, and some glue and a screwdriver to fix the old one," Sam said. "I'm really sorry I broke your car. I was confused by the bulb and I wanted to see what it did. I should have asked you first."
+
+Tom looked at Sam and smiled. He was happy that Sam was sorry and that he brought him a new car. He also liked the idea of fixing the old one.
+
+"Thank you, Sam," Tom said. "That's very nice of you. I forgive you. Do you want to help me fix the old car?"
+
+"Yes, I do," Sam said. "And can you show me how the bulb works?"
+
+"Sure, I can," Tom said. "But first, let's play with the new car. It can speed very fast!"
+
+Tom and Sam hugged and went to play with the cars. They learned to share and to ask before touching. They also learned that the bulb was a siren, and that it was for cars that helped people, like fire trucks and police cars. They had fun and stayed friends.
+
+The end.
+Sara loves her cat, Lucky. Lucky is black and white and soft. Sara likes to touch Lucky and hug him. Lucky likes to purr and lick Sara.
+
+One day, Sara and Lucky go outside to play. They see a big tree with many birds. Lucky wants to catch a bird. He runs to the tree and jumps. Sara shouts, "No, Lucky, stop!"
+
+But Lucky does not stop. He climbs the tree and chases a bird. The bird flies away. Lucky tries to follow, but he slips and falls. Sara is scared. She runs to Lucky and picks him up. She checks if he is hurt.
+
+Lucky is not hurt. He is just scared and dirty. He meows and cuddles with Sara. Sara is happy. She says, "You are a silly cat, Lucky. You are lucky I love you so much. Let's go home and clean you up."
+
+Sara and Lucky go home. Sara washes Lucky and dries him. She gives him some food and water. She kisses him and says, "You are my best friend, Lucky. I will always take care of you." Lucky purrs and licks Sara. They are both happy.
+Lily and Tom were thirsty. They saw a machine with many drinks. They wanted to get a drink from the machine.
+
+Lily said, "I want the pink drink. It looks yummy."
+
+Tom said, "I want the blue drink. It looks cool."
+
+They put a coin in the machine and pressed the buttons. But the drinks did not come out. The machine made a loud noise and shook.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They tried to get their coin back. But the coin was stuck. They could not get a drink or their coin.
+
+They started to cry. They wanted their drink and their coin.
+
+A man saw them crying. He came to help them. He said, "What is wrong, kids?"
+
+Lily and Tom said, "The machine is bad. It took our coin and did not give us a drink."
+
+The man looked at the machine. He said, "Oh, I see. The drinks are too big. They do not fit in the hole. That is why the machine is angry."
+
+He opened the machine and took out the drinks. He gave them to Lily and Tom. He said, "Here you go. You can have these drinks. They are good for you."
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They said, "Thank you, mister. You are nice."
+
+They drank their drinks. They were happy. They liked the pink drink and the blue drink. They said, "Bye, mister."
+
+They left the machine and went to play.
+Tom and Lily were playing in their room. They liked to pretend they were spies and look for hidden things. They had a big closet with many clothes and hangers. Sometimes they hid behind the clothes and tried to scare each other.
+
+"Tom, where are you?" Lily called. She looked around the room, but she could not see him. She opened the closet door and peeked inside. She saw a lot of hangers, but no Tom.
+
+"Boo!" Tom shouted. He jumped out from behind a coat and made Lily scream. He laughed and said, "I got you, Lily! You did not see me. I was hidden behind the hanger."
+
+Lily was not happy. She said, "That was not fair, Tom. You scared me too much. You do not belong in the closet. You belong with me. We are supposed to play together, not trick each other."
+
+Tom felt sorry. He said, "I am sorry, Lily. I was just having fun. You are right. We belong together. We are the best spies. Let's find something else to play. Maybe we can make a fort with the pillows and blankets."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "OK, Tom. That sounds fun. But no more hiding behind the hangers, OK?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "OK, Lily. No more hiding behind the hangers. I promise."
+
+They hugged and went to make their fort. They had a lot of fun playing in their room. They were happy to belong to each other.
+Lily and Ben were playing on the lawn. They liked to create things with sticks and stones and leaves. They made a house, a car, and a dragon.
+
+"Look at my dragon!" Lily said. "It has big teeth and a long tail. It can fly and breathe fire."
+
+"That's not a dragon," Ben said. "That's a silly pile of leaves. My car is better. It has wheels and a horn. It can go fast and beep."
+
+Lily felt angry. She did not like Ben's words. She thought her dragon was beautiful. She wanted to make Ben feel uncomfortable.
+
+She picked up a stick and poked Ben's car. She made a hole in it. She said, "Now your car is broken. It can't go anywhere. It can only beep."
+
+Ben felt sad. He did not like Lily's action. He thought his car was cool. He wanted to make Lily feel sorry.
+
+He picked up a stone and threw it at Lily's dragon. He made a dent in it. He said, "Now your dragon is hurt. It can't fly or breathe fire. It can only cry."
+
+Lily felt pain. She did not like Ben's stone. She thought her dragon was strong. She wanted to make Ben feel scared.
+
+She picked up a leaf and waved it at Ben. She said, "My dragon is not hurt. It is angry. It will chase you and bite you. You better run."
+
+Ben felt fear. He did not like Lily's leaf. He thought her dragon was fake. He wanted to make Lily feel silly.
+
+He picked up a stone and threw it at Lily. He said, "Your leaf is not a dragon. It is a leaf. It can't chase or bite me. You better stop."
+
+Lily and Ben both felt hurt. They did not like each other's stones. They thought their creations were fun. They wanted to make each other feel happy.
+
+They looked at each other and said, "Sorry."
+
+They put down their sticks and stones and leaves. They hugged and said, "Friends."
+
+They played on the lawn. They liked to create things together. They made a house, a car, and a dragon.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. They meet every day in the park. They run, jump, and laugh.
+
+One day, winter comes. It is very cold. The park is white with snow. Lily and Ben are happy. They want to make a snowman. They roll big balls of snow and stack them up. They find a hat, a scarf, and a carrot for the snowman.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. It is black and furry. It barks loud. It runs to the snowman. It bites the hat, the scarf, and the carrot. It knocks down the snowman. Lily and Ben are scared. They cry.
+
+"Go away, bad dog!" Ben shouts. "Leave our snowman alone!"
+
+But the dog does not listen. It jumps on Ben. It scratches his face. It hurts him. Lily screams. She runs to help Ben. She throws snow at the dog.
+
+A man comes. He is the dog's owner. He calls the dog. He puts a leash on it. He says sorry to Lily and Ben. He takes the dog away.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They look at their snowman. It is broken. They look at Ben's face. It is bleeding. They hug each other. They go home. They do not play in the park anymore. They do not like winter. They do not like dogs. The end.
+Lily wanted to bake a cake for her mom. Her mom was in the hospital for an operation. Lily missed her mom a lot and wanted to make her happy.
+
+She asked her dad to help her bake the cake. Her dad was grumpy. He said he was too busy and tired. He said baking a cake was messy and hard. He said they had no eggs or flour or sugar.
+
+Lily was sad. She said, "Please, dad, please. I want to bake a cake for mom. She will like it. She will smile. Please, dad, please."
+
+Her dad looked at her. He saw her big eyes and her small hands. He felt sorry for her. He said, "Okay, okay. We will bake a cake. But we have to go to the store first. And we have to clean up after. And we have to be quick. We have to go to the hospital soon."
+
+Lily was happy. She hugged her dad. She said, "Thank you, dad, thank you. You are the best dad. I love you."
+
+They went to the store and bought eggs and flour and sugar and frosting. They went back home and baked the cake. They made a chocolate cake with pink frosting. They wrote "I love you, mom" with sprinkles. They cleaned up the kitchen. They put the cake in a box.

+They went to the hospital and gave the cake to mom. Mom was surprised and happy. She said, "Oh, what a beautiful cake. Thank you, Lily. Thank you, dad. You are the best family. I love you."
+
+Lily and dad smiled. They hugged mom. They ate the cake together. They were not grumpy anymore. They were happy.
+Anna loves to read books. She has many books in her room. She likes books with animals, colors, and shapes. Every night, she picks a book to read with her mom.
+
+Tonight, she chooses a book about a puppy. The puppy is adorable. He has brown fur, big ears, and a wet nose. He likes to play, run, and jump. He also likes to make friends with other animals.
+
+Anna and her mom read the book together. They look at the pictures and say the words. Anna points to the puppy's nose and says, "Nose!" She touches her own nose and giggles. Her mom kisses her nose and says, "You have an adorable nose, too!"
+
+Anna smiles and hugs her mom. She says, "I love you, mom. I love books. I love puppy." Her mom says, "I love you, too, Anna. You are my smart and sweet girl." They finish the book and say good night. Anna falls asleep with the book and the puppy in her arms.
+Ben and Lily liked to play on the farm with their grandpa. They liked to see the animals and help with the chores. One day, they saw a big, elderly cow in the barn. She was very old and slow, but she was still kind and gentle.

+"Can we pet her, grandpa?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. She might be a bit grumpy today," grandpa said.
+
+Ben and Lily approached the cow slowly and gently. They stroked her soft fur and scratched her ears. The cow mooed softly and licked their hands.
+
+"Can we ride her, grandpa?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, no, she's too old for that. She needs to rest and eat her hay," grandpa said.
+
+"But we can spin with her, right?" Ben asked.
+
+"Spin with her? What do you mean?" grandpa asked.
+
+Ben and Lily giggled and ran around the cow in circles. They pretended they were spinning like a merry-go-round. The cow watched them with curiosity and amusement. She wagged her tail and mooed again.
+
+"Look, grandpa, we're spinning with the cow!" Ben and Lily shouted.
+
+Grandpa smiled and shook his head. He was glad to see them having fun. He joined them and spun with them too. The cow, the children, and the grandpa spun and laughed together. They had a wonderful time on the farm.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a big hill with many ants. Ben wanted to catch some ants and put them in a jar. Mia did not like that idea.
+
+"Ben, stop! Ants are not toys. They have a home and a family. They work hard and help each other. They are polite bugs. You should not hurt them," Mia said.
+
+"But I want to see them up close. They are so small and fast. They have six legs and two feelers. They are cool bugs. I will not hurt them, I promise," Ben said.
+
+Mia shook her head. She did not trust Ben. She knew he was not gentle with bugs. She had seen him squash a spider and a fly before. She did not want him to do the same to the ants.
+
+"Ben, listen to me. If you want to see the ants, you can watch them from here. You can clap your hands and make them run. You can count how many ants you see. You can learn their names and colors. But you cannot catch them or touch them. That is not nice. That is mean," Mia said.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He liked to clap his hands and make noise. He liked to count and learn new things. He did not want to be mean. He wanted to be nice. He wanted to be polite, like the ants.
+
+"Okay, Mia. You are right. I will not catch the ants. I will watch them and clap and count and learn. Thank you for being my friend and teaching me," Ben said.
+
+Mia smiled. She was happy that Ben listened to her. She was proud of him for being polite. She hugged him and said, "You are welcome, Ben. You are my friend and I love you. Now let's watch the ants and have fun."
+Sara and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. But their favorite thing was to spin on the merry-go-round.
+
+One day, Sara had a new dress. It was pink and had flowers on it. She was very happy. She wanted to show Ben her new dress. She ran to the park and found Ben on the swing.
+
+"Look, Ben, look at my new dress!" Sara said. "It is so pretty and it spins when I turn around!"
+
+Ben looked at Sara's dress. He liked it too. He wanted to make Sara happy. He had an idea.
+
+"Let's spin on the merry-go-round together!" Ben said. "I promise it will be fun!"
+
+Sara smiled. She liked Ben's idea. She liked to spin with Ben. She agreed.
+
+"Okay, let's spin!" Sara said. "But you have to hold my hand and not let go!"
+
+Ben nodded. He held Sara's hand and they ran to the merry-go-round. They climbed on and started to spin. They laughed and shouted. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They were very cheerful.
+
+They spun and spun until they were dizzy. They stopped and got off. They hugged each other and thanked each other.
+
+"That was the best spin ever!" Sara said. "You are the best friend ever!"
+
+"You are the best friend ever too!" Ben said. "And you have the best dress ever!"
+
+They smiled and held hands. They made a promise to spin again tomorrow. They were very happy.
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toy cars in the garden. They like to make them zoom and crash and honk. But Mia's car is old and broken. It has a big dent and a missing wheel. Mia is sad.
+
+"Can you repair my car, Tom?" Mia asks. "You are good at fixing things."
+
+Tom nods and takes Mia's car. He looks for a spare wheel and a hammer. He tries to make the car look new again. But he needs something else. He needs oil.
+
+"Where is the oil?" Tom wonders. He remembers that Dad has oil in the garage. He runs to the garage and opens the door. He sees a big bottle of oil on a shelf. He tries to reach it, but it is too high.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" a voice says. It is Ben, Tom's older brother. He is bossy and mean. He likes to tease Tom and Mia.
+
+"I need oil for Mia's car," Tom says. "Can you help me?"
+
+"No, I can't," Ben says. "That oil is not for toys. It is for Dad's car. You can't touch it. Go away."
+
+"But Mia's car is broken," Tom says. "She is sad. I want to repair it."
+
+"I don't care," Ben says. "You are a baby. You can't play with oil. It is dirty and dangerous. You will make a mess. Leave me alone."
+
+Ben pushes Tom away and slams the door. Tom falls down and hurts his knee. He cries. Mia hears him and runs to him.
+
+"What happened, Tom?" Mia asks. "Are you okay?"
+
+"Ben is mean," Tom says. "He won't let me get the oil. He says it is not for toys. He says I am a baby."
+
+Mia hugs Tom and wipes his tears. She is angry at Ben.
+
+"You are not a baby, Tom," Mia says. "You are my friend. You are brave and smart. We don't need oil. We can use something else. Come on, let's go to the kitchen. I have an idea."
+
+Mia and Tom go to the kitchen. They find some butter and some glue. They use them to repair Mia's car. They make it shiny and smooth. They are happy.
+
+"Look, Tom, you did it!" Mia says. "You repaired my car. Thank you. You are the best."
+
+Tom smiles and hugs Mia. They go back to the garden and play with their cars. They have fun. They don't care about Ben and his oil. They have each other. They are friends.
+Anna liked to lay on the grass and look at the sky. She saw many shapes in the clouds. She saw a dog, a fish, a star and a heart. She smiled and felt happy.
+
+She heard a voice behind her. It was Ben, her friend from next door. He came to play with her. He lay down next to her and looked at the clouds too. He saw a car, a ball, a moon and a flower. He pointed and said their names.
+
+Anna and Ben liked each other. They thought the other was attractive. They had the same color hair and eyes. They liked the same games and songs. They held hands and giggled.
+
+They heard another voice. It was Anna's mom. She called them for lunch. They got up and ran to the house. They were hungry and excited. They knew mom had made their favorite food. They thanked her and ate with big smiles.
+
+They finished their lunch and asked mom if they could go back to the grass. Mom said yes, but they had to wear hats and sunscreen. They agreed and put them on. They ran back to the grass and lay down again. They looked at the clouds and each other. They were happy.
+Sam is a bald man who likes to jog every day. He wears a hat to keep his head warm and a watch to see how fast he runs. He likes to jog in the park where he can see the trees, the birds and the flowers.
+
+One day, he meets a little girl in the park. She has long curly hair and a pink dress. She is holding a balloon that is red and shiny. She sees Sam and says hello.
+
+"Hello, little girl. What is your name?" Sam asks.
+
+"My name is Lily. What is your name?" she answers.
+
+"My name is Sam. I like your balloon. It is very pretty," he says.
+
+"Thank you. I like your hat. It is very nice," she says.
+
+Sam smiles and says, "Do you want to jog with me? It is fun and good for you."
+
+Lily nods and says, "Yes, I want to jog with you. But I have to hold my balloon. I don't want to lose it."
+
+"OK, then. Let's jog together. But be careful. Don't let the balloon fly away," he says.
+
+They start to jog in the park. They jog slowly at first, then faster and faster. Sam looks at his watch and sees that his speed is increasing. He is happy and proud. He says to Lily, "You are a good jogger. You are making me run faster."
+
+Lily laughs and says, "You are a good jogger too. You are making me run faster too."
+
+They jog and jog until they reach the end of the park. They stop and catch their breath. They look at each other and smile. They are both happy and tired. They say goodbye and thank each other for the jog.
+
+Sam puts his hat back on and walks home. Lily holds her balloon and walks home too. They both think that they have made a new friend in the park. They both hope to see each other again.
+Sara liked to play with her pig. His name was Pinky and he was very big and soft. Sara would feed him apples and carrots and hug him every day. Pinky was happy and loved Sara too.
+
+One day, Sara wanted to show Pinky to her friend Tom. She put a rope around Pinky's neck and tried to lead him to Tom's house. But Pinky did not want to go. He was scared of the cars and the dogs and the noise. He pulled and squealed and ran away.
+
+Sara was sad and worried. She ran after Pinky and called his name. She hoped he would not get hurt or lost. She looked everywhere, but she could not find him.
+
+Then she heard a loud oink. She followed the sound and saw Pinky in a field. He was eating some corn and playing with some cows. He looked happy and safe. Sara was very grateful. She ran to Pinky and hugged him. She said sorry for making him scared. She said she loved him very much.
+
+Pinky oinked and licked her face. He said sorry for running away. He said he loved her very much too. Sara and Pinky walked back home. They were very happy and grateful. They never tried to lead each other again. They were happy to play in their own yard.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with gear. Gear is a toy that has many parts. You can make different things with gear. Sam and Ben have a big box of gear.
+
+One day, they want to make a robot with gear. They take out many parts from the box. They start to put them together. Sam has an idea. He says, "Let's make the robot talk. We need a voice box."
+
+Ben nods. He says, "OK. Where is the voice box?" He looks in the box. He cannot find it. He says, "Oh no. We don't have a voice box. What can we do?"
+
+Sam thinks. He says, "I know. We can order a voice box. We can use the phone. We can call the toy store. They have voice boxes. They can send us one."
+
+Ben agrees. He says, "Good idea. Let's do that." He picks up the phone. He dials the number of the toy store. He waits for someone to answer.
+
+"Hello, this is the toy store. How can I help you?" a voice says.
+
+Ben says, "Hello. We want to order a voice box. We need it for our robot. We are making a robot with gear. Can you send us one?"
+
+The voice says, "Sure. We have voice boxes. They are very cool. They can make your robot say different things. How many do you want?"
+
+Ben says, "We only need one. How much is it?"
+
+The voice says, "It is five dollars. Do you have a credit card?"
+
+Ben says, "No. We don't have a credit card. We have money. We have ten dollars. Can we pay with money?"
+
+The voice says, "Yes. You can pay with money. But you have to come to the store. We cannot send you the voice box. You have to pick it up."
+
+Ben says, "Oh. OK. We can come to the store. But we have to ask our mom. She has to drive us. Can you hold the voice box for us?"
+
+The voice says, "Yes. We can hold the voice box for you. But you have to come soon. We close at five o'clock. What is your name?"
+
+Ben says, "My name is Ben. And this is my brother Sam. We are serious about making a robot. We really want the voice box."
+
+The voice says, "OK, Ben and Sam. I will keep the voice box for you. But hurry up. Come to the store before five o'clock. Bye."
+
+Ben says, "Bye." He hangs up the phone. He tells Sam what the voice said. Sam says, "Let's go ask mom. She will take us to the store. We will get the voice box. We will make the robot talk. It will be awesome."
+
+Ben and Sam run to find their mom. They tell her about their plan. She smiles. She says, "OK. Let's go to the toy store. But first, put the gear back in the box. We don't want to lose any parts. We will finish the robot when we come back."
+
+Ben and Sam do what their mom says. They put the gear back in the box. They get ready to go to the toy store. They are very excited. They can't wait to get the voice box. They can't wait to make the robot talk. They hope the toy store still has it. They hope they get there on time. They hope their robot will be the best.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the forest near their house. One day, they find a big pine tree with many cones. They want to pick some cones to make crafts.
+
+"Look, Ben, this cone is big and brown!" Anna says. She holds a cone in her hand.
+
+"Wow, Anna, it is nice! I want one too!" Ben says. He looks around for another cone.
+
+He sees one on a high branch. He tries to reach it, but it is too far. He steps on a low branch to get closer. But the branch is weak and breaks. Ben falls to the ground with a thud.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" Anna asks. She runs to him and helps him up.
+
+"I'm okay, Anna, but that hurt!" Ben says. He rubs his knee and his elbow. They are red and sore.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. That was a bad branch. Let's go home and get a band-aid," Anna says. She gives him a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Okay, Anna. Thank you. You are a good sister," Ben says. He smiles and hugs her back.
+
+They walk home, holding hands. They are slow and careful. They do not step on any more branches. They still have their cones. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a man with many balloons. The balloons are red, blue, yellow, green and pink. They are big and round and shiny.
+
+"Look, balloons!" Tom says. "I want a balloon. Do you want a balloon, Lily?"
+
+"Yes, I want a balloon too," Lily says. "But we have no money. How can we get a balloon?"
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He has an idea. He runs to the man and says, "Hello, sir. Can you give me a balloon, please?"
+
+The man smiles and says, "Sure, little boy. You can have a balloon. But you have to do something for me. You have to tell me a joke. Can you tell me a joke?"
+
+Tom nods. He likes jokes. He says, "Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+The man says, "I don't know. Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+Tom says, "To get to the other side!"
+
+The man laughs and says, "That's a good joke. You can have a balloon. Which one do you want?"
+
+Tom looks at the balloons. He sees one that is different from the others. It is not normal. It is not round. It is long and twisted. It looks like a dog.
+
+"I want that one," Tom says. "The one that looks like a dog."
+
+The man says, "OK, you can have that one. But be careful. It is not a normal balloon. It is a special balloon. It can do tricks. Watch this."
+
+The man squeezes the balloon and makes a sound. The balloon dog barks and wags its tail. Tom is amazed. He says, "Wow, that's cool. Thank you, sir."
+
+The man says, "You're welcome. Have fun with your balloon dog."
+
+Tom takes the balloon dog and runs back to Lily. He shows her his balloon. Lily is surprised. She says, "That's not a normal balloon. That's a balloon dog. How did you get it?"
+
+Tom says, "I told the man a joke and he gave it to me. He said it can do tricks. Look."
+
+Tom squeezes the balloon and makes a sound. The balloon dog barks and wags its tail. Lily laughs. She says, "That's funny. I like your balloon dog. Can I play with it?"
+
+Tom says, "Sure, you can play with it. But you have to tell me a joke too. Can you tell me a joke?"
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She has an idea. She says, "What do you call a fish that wears a bow tie?"
+
+Tom says, "I don't know. What do you call a fish that wears a bow tie?"
+
+Lily says, "Sofishticated!"
+
+Tom laughs and says, "That's a good joke. You can play with my balloon dog. But don't let it pop. It is not a normal balloon. It is a special balloon."
+
+Lily says, "OK, I won't let it pop. Thank you, Tom."
+
+Tom and Lily play with the balloon dog in the park. They have a lot of fun. They are happy. They are friends.
+Lily liked to play with her copper coins. She had many of them in a jar. She liked how they shone and made noise when she shook them. She also liked to count them and sort them by size.
+
+One day, her big brother Tom came into her room. He saw her jar of coins and said, "Can I have some of your coins, Lily? I need them for the candy store."
+
+Lily did not want to give her coins to Tom. She said, "No, they are mine. I like them. Go away."
+
+Tom was angry. He said, "You are selfish, Lily. You have too many coins. You don't need them all. I only want a few. Give me some or I will tell mom."
+
+Lily was scared. She did not want Tom to tell mom. She did not understand why he wanted her coins. She said, "Please, Tom, don't tell mom. Why do you need my coins? They are not candy. They are copper."
+
+Tom said, "Copper is money, Lily. You can buy candy with money. Don't you know that? You are silly. You should learn how to use money. Here, I will show you. Give me some coins and I will teach you."
+
+Lily was curious. She wanted to learn how to use money. She wanted to buy candy too. She said, "OK, Tom, I will give you some coins. But not all of them. Only a few. And you have to teach me how to use them."
+
+Tom smiled. He said, "OK, Lily, I will teach you. But you have to be tidy. You have to put your coins back in the jar when we are done. And you have to say thank you."
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "OK, Tom, I will be tidy. And I will say thank you. But you have to be nice. And you have to share the candy."
+
+Tom agreed. He said, "OK, Lily, I will be nice. And I will share the candy. Come on, let's go to the candy store."
+
+Lily and Tom took some coins and went to the candy store. They learned how to use money and bought some candy. They shared the candy and ate it happily. They put the coins back in the jar and said thank you to each other. They were both happy. They understood each other better.
+Sara and Lily were twins. They liked to play in the park with their ball. They wore pretty dresses that their mom made for them. They had long, curly hair and big, blue eyes.
+
+One day, they saw a big slide in the park. They wanted to try it. They ran to the slide, holding hands. Sara went first. She climbed up the ladder and sat on the slide. She smiled at Lily and said, "Watch me, Lily! I'm going to slide down fast!"
+
+Lily watched her sister. She saw Sara slide down the slide. She saw Sara go too fast. She saw Sara stumble at the end of the slide. She saw Sara fall on the ground. She saw Sara hit her head on a rock.
+
+Lily screamed. She ran to Sara. She saw blood on Sara's head. She saw Sara's eyes closed. She shook Sara and said, "Sara, Sara, wake up! Please, Sara, wake up!"
+
+But Sara did not wake up. Sara was still. Sara was quiet. Sara was gone. Lily cried and cried. She wished she had not let Sara go first. She wished they had not played on the slide. She wished they had stayed with their ball. She wished Sara was still with her. She wished she was not alone.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a cute bunny in the grass. The bunny was white with black spots and had long ears.
+
+"Look, a bunny!" Lily said. "Can we pet it?"
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe it is scared of us."
+
+They decided to observe the bunny from a distance. They saw that it was eating some green leaves and hopping around. They also saw a bird flying over the bunny and making a loud noise.
+
+"Shoo, bird!" Lily shouted. "Leave the bunny alone!"
+
+The bird flew away, but the bunny got startled and ran into a hole. Lily and Tom felt sad. They wanted to see the bunny again.
+
+"Maybe we were too loud," Tom said. "We should be quiet and gentle when we see animals."
+
+"Yes, you are right," Lily said. "Animals are not toys. They have feelings too."
+
+They learned to respect the bunny and other animals. They hoped to see the bunny again someday, but they knew they had to be careful and kind.
+Lily was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new things. One day, she saw a big tree with many bees buzzing around it. She wondered if there was honey inside the tree. She loved honey on her toast and in her tea.
+
+She walked closer to the tree and saw a hole where the bees went in and out. She was curious and brave, so she decided to peek inside. She climbed on a rock and put her eye near the hole. She stared at the dark and sticky inside of the tree.
+
+Suddenly, she felt a sting on her cheek. A bee had come out of the hole and did not like her staring. It hurt a lot and Lily cried out loud. She ran away from the tree and looked for her mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, a bee bit me!" she sobbed, holding her cheek.
+
+"Oh, Lily, what happened?" her mom asked, hugging her and looking at her face.
+
+"I wanted to see the honey in the tree, but the bee was angry and bit me," Lily explained, sniffing.
+
+Her mom kissed her cheek and said, "I'm sorry, Lily, but you can't look for honey in the bee's home. That's their food and they protect it. You have to be careful and respectful of the animals and their homes. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I understand, mom. I'm sorry, bee. I won't stare at your home again."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "That's good, Lily. Now let's go home and put some ice on your cheek. And maybe we can have some honey on toast later, okay?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Okay, mom. I love you."
+
+"I love you too, Lily. You are my adventurous girl."
+Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls with different dresses and hair. She gave them names and made them talk. She was happy when she played with her dolls.
+
+One day, she saw some kids playing in the park. They had a ball and a swing and a slide. They looked like they were having fun. Lily wanted to play with them, but she was shy. She did not know how to join them.
+
+She took one of her dolls and walked to the park. She sat on a bench and watched the kids. They saw her and smiled. They looked friendly. One of them, a boy with a red cap, came to her and said, "Hi, I'm Ben. What's your name?"
+
+"I'm Lily," she said softly.
+
+"That's a nice doll you have. What's her name?" Ben asked.
+
+"Her name is Anna. She's my favorite," Lily said.
+
+"Can I see her?" Ben asked.
+
+Lily nodded and handed him her doll. Ben looked at her and said, "She's very pretty. Do you want to play with us? We have a ball and a swing and a slide. You can bring your doll too."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Yes, I want to play with you. Thank you for asking."
+
+Ben took her hand and led her to the group. He introduced her to the other kids. They welcomed her and offered her to share their toys. Lily felt happy and made new friends. She played with them and her doll. She had a lot of fun. She was glad she met Ben and the group. They were very friendly.
+Tim and Lily were playing with their toy cars on the floor. They made noises like vroom and beep as they moved their cars around. They liked to pretend they were driving to different places.
+
+"Let's go to the park!" Lily said. She drove her car towards the door.
+
+"Okay!" Tim said. He followed her with his car. But he was clumsy and bumped into a chair. His car fell over and he cried.
+
+"Ow! That hurt!" Tim said. He rubbed his knee.
+
+Lily stopped and came back to him. She saw his car on the floor. She picked it up and gave it to him.
+
+"Here, Tim. It's okay. Don't cry." Lily said. She hugged him.
+
+Tim smiled and hugged her back. He took his car and looked at it. It was not broken.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister." Tim said.
+
