+"Then can we get new balloons?" Lila asks.
+
+"Maybe. But we have to be careful. We don't want to waste the oxygen. It is very important. And we don't want to make the sky black with too many balloons. It is very pretty when it is blue and white and sometimes pink and purple." Ben says.
+
+Lila nods. She understands. She likes the sky too. She likes the oxygen too. She likes Ben too.
+
+They hug and go back to their mom. She has a surprise for them. She has ice cream cones. They are happy. They lick their ice cream and look at the sky. They see some of their balloons still flying. They wave at them and say goodbye. They hope they will have fun. They hope they will be safe. They hope they will come back someday.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Tom had a soldier that he liked very much. He made the soldier march and shoot and say "Yes, sir!" Lily had a doll that she liked very much. She made the doll dance and sing and say "I love you!"
+
+Tom and Lily were happy playing with their toys. But then, they heard a loud noise outside. They ran to the window and saw a big truck. The truck had many soldiers in it. They wore green clothes and had hats and guns. They looked serious and strong.
+
+"Wow, look at the soldiers!" Tom said. "They are going to fight the bad guys!"
+
+Lily looked at the soldiers and felt scared. She did not like the guns and the noise. She hugged her doll and said "I don't like the soldiers. They are scary!"
+
+Tom saw that Lily was scared and felt sorry. He remembered that his dad was a soldier too. His dad was away for a long time. He missed his dad very much. He wanted his dad to come back and play with him.
+
+Tom said to Lily "Don't be scared, Lily. The soldiers are not scary. They are good. They help people and keep us safe. My dad is a soldier too. He is very nice and funny. He loves me and you and mom. He will come back soon and give us hugs and kisses."
+
+Lily listened to Tom and felt better. She remembered that Tom's dad was a soldier too. She had seen him in a picture. He had a big smile and a kind face. He looked happy and kind.
+
+Lily said to Tom "I'm sorry, Tom. I didn't know your dad was a soldier too. He looks happy and kind. I hope he comes back soon and plays with us. I love your dad too."
+
+Tom and Lily smiled and hugged each other. They went back to playing with their toys. They were happy and hopeful. They waited for Tom's dad to come back. They knew he was a good soldier and a good dad.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to visit their grandma every week. Grandma lives in a small house with a big garden. She has many flowers and birds.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben go to visit grandma. They knock on the door and say, "Hello, grandma!" Grandma opens the door and hugs them. She says, "I'm so happy to see you, my darlings!"
+
+Grandma takes them to the living room. She has a television there. She turns it on and says, "Do you want to watch a show?" Sara and Ben nod. They like to watch shows with grandma. They sit on the sofa and watch a show about animals.
+
+The show is very fun. They see lions, monkeys, elephants, and more. They learn their names and sounds. Sara and Ben ask grandma many questions. Grandma answers them and tells them stories.
+
+The show ends and grandma says, "That was a nice show, wasn't it?" Sara and Ben say, "Yes, grandma, we liked it a lot!" Grandma says, "Now, let's go to the garden and have some cookies and milk. But we have to be quiet, because the birds are sleeping."
+
+Sara and Ben say, "Okay, grandma, we will be quiet." They turn off the television and follow grandma to the garden. They see the birds in their nests. They are very quiet and do not make any noise. They eat their cookies and drink their milk. They enjoy the sun and the breeze.
+
+They love to visit grandma. She is very kind and sweet. They give her a big kiss and say, "Thank you, grandma, for the show and the cookies and the milk. We love you!" Grandma says, "I love you too, my darlings. You are very good and smart. Come back soon!" Sara and Ben say, "We will, grandma, we will!" They wave goodbye and go home with their mom. They are very happy.
+Tommy and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They saw a big tent with many colors and a sign that said "Circus". They wanted to go and see the animals and the tricks.
+
+"Can we go, mommy?" Tommy asked.
+
+"Maybe later, sweetie. We have to go home soon and have lunch," mommy said.
+
+"But I want to see the clown!" Lily said. "He makes funny faces and noises and makes me laugh."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "OK, we can go for a little while. But only if you behave and stay close to me."
+
+Tommy and Lily nodded and followed mommy to the tent. They paid for their tickets and entered the circus. They saw many people and animals and lights and music. They were very excited.
+
+They found some seats and watched the show. They saw a lion that roared and jumped through a hoop. They saw a horse that danced and wore a hat. They saw a monkey that rode a bike and threw bananas. They clapped and cheered.
+
+Then they saw the clown. He had a big red nose and a colorful suit and shoes. He walked on a rope and fell down. He squirted water from a flower and made a balloon animal. He juggled balls and pies and hats. He made funny faces and noises and made everyone laugh.
+
+Tommy and Lily laughed too. They liked the clown. He was very silly and fun.
+
+But there was a boy next to them who did not laugh. He looked angry and bored. He said, "The clown is stupid and ignorant. He does not know anything. He is not funny. He is annoying."
+
+Tommy and Lily heard him and felt sad. They did not like what he said. They thought he was mean and rude.
+
+"Why do you say that?" Tommy asked the boy.
+
+"Because it is true," the boy said. "The clown is a fool. He does not do anything good. He only makes a mess and a noise. He is a waste of time."
+
+Tommy and Lily did not agree. They thought the boy was wrong. They thought the clown was good. He did many things. He made people happy and laugh. He was not a waste of time.
+
+They decided to ignore the boy and enjoy the show. They looked at the clown and smiled. They laughed some more.
+
+They did not mention the boy again. They only mentioned the clown. They said, "The clown is funny and smart. He knows many things. He is not ignorant. He is amazing."
+Lily liked to play with her toys. She had many toys, but her best toy was a big lion. The lion was soft and yellow, and had a long tail. Lily named him Leo.
+
+One day, Lily and Leo went to the park. They saw other kids and dogs and birds. Lily wanted to play with them, but Leo was shy. He stayed close to Lily and did not make a sound.
+
+"Come on, Leo, let's have fun!" Lily said. She pulled Leo by his tail and ran to the swings. Leo did not like that. He felt a pain in his tail and he roared.
+
+"Rawr!" Leo said. His roar was loud and scary. The other kids and dogs and birds heard him and ran away. They thought he was a real lion.
+
+Lily was surprised. She did not know Leo could roar. She looked at him and saw he was angry. She felt sorry for him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Leo, I did not mean to hurt you," Lily said. She hugged him and kissed his nose. "You are a gifted lion. You can roar like a real lion. But you are also my friend. And I love you."
+
+Leo felt better. He licked Lily's cheek and purred. He was a gifted lion, but he was also a soft and yellow toy. And he loved Lily too.
+Lily and Max liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing, and run. But their favorite thing was the tunnel. The tunnel was big and orange. They could crawl inside and pretend to be animals or explorers.
+
+One day, they went to the park with their mom. They ran to the tunnel and took turns crawling through. Lily was a lion and Max was a monkey. They made loud noises and had fun.
+
+But then, Lily saw something shiny in the tunnel. She crawled closer and saw a ring. It was silver and had a blue stone. Lily liked it very much. She picked it up and put it on her finger.
+
+"Look, Max, I found a ring!" she said.
+
+Max crawled to her and saw the ring. He wanted it too. He tried to take it from Lily.
+
+"Give it to me, Lily, it's mine!" he said.
+
+"No, Max, it's mine! I found it first!" Lily said.
+
+They started to pull and push. They both wanted the ring. They forgot to have fun.
+
+Their mom heard them fighting. She came to the tunnel and saw them.
+
+"Stop, Lily and Max, stop!" she said. "What are you doing?"
+
+They told her about the ring. She looked at it and frowned.
+
+"Lily and Max, this is not your ring. This is someone else's ring. You have to quit fighting and give it back. Maybe someone lost it and is looking for it. How would you feel if you lost something you liked?"
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry. They did not want to make someone sad. They gave the ring to their mom.
+
+"Sorry, mom, we were bad," they said.
+
+"It's okay, Lily and Max, you made a mistake. But you have to be kind and honest. Now, let's go and find the owner of the ring. Maybe they are still in the park. And then, you can play in the tunnel again. But this time, be nice to each other, okay?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They hugged their mom and followed her. They learned a lesson. They did not want to quit playing in the tunnel. They wanted to quit fighting. They wanted to be good.
+Sara was playing with her blocks. She wanted to build a big tower. She put one block on top of another. She was very happy.
+
+But then, her brother Tom came. He was naughty. He pushed her tower. All the blocks fell down. Sara was very sad. She cried.
+
+"Tom, why did you do that?" she asked. "That was not nice. I worked hard on my tower. Now I have to start again."
+
+Tom did not care. He laughed. He said, "Your tower was silly. I wanted to play with the blocks. You have to share."
+
+Sara was angry. She said, "No, you have to wait. I did not finish. You have to ask first. You are mean."
+
+Tom did not listen. He grabbed some blocks. He tried to build his own tower. But he did not know how. His tower was wobbly. It fell down too.
+
+Tom was frustrated. He threw the blocks. He kicked the chair. The chair was hard. It hurt his foot. He screamed.
+
+Sara heard him. She looked at him. He was on the floor. He was holding his foot. He was helpless. He could not play anymore.
+
+Sara felt sorry for him. She was not angry anymore. She said, "Tom, are you okay? Do you want me to help you?"
+
+Tom nodded. He said, "Yes, please. I'm sorry. I was wrong. Your tower was nice. Can we build it together?"
+
+Sara smiled. She said, "Okay. We can build it together. But we have to be careful. And we have to share."
+
+They hugged. They picked up the blocks. They started to build a new tower. They were happy. They were friends.
+Lily and Tom like to play in the pool. They wear their suits and jump in the water. They splash and swim and have fun.
+
+One day, Lily sees a big frog near the pool. She wants to catch it and show Tom. She gets out of the water and runs to the frog. But the frog is wise and hops away.
+
+"Come back, frog!" Lily says. She follows the frog to the grass. The frog jumps into a puddle. Lily tries to grab it, but she slips and falls into the puddle too.
+
+Tom sees Lily and laughs. "Lily, you are so wet! You soak the grass and the dirt!" he says.
+
+Lily feels silly and wet. She gets up and shakes her suit. She smiles and says, "It's okay, Tom. I like to soak. It's fun. But the frog is too fast for me. Maybe next time I will catch it."
+
+Tom nods and says, "Maybe next time, Lily. But now let's go back to the pool. The water is warm and nice. And we can play with our toys."
+
+Lily agrees and runs back to the pool with Tom. They forget about the frog and enjoy the rest of the day.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and hide behind the trees. Sara saw a beautiful flower near the gate. It was red and yellow and smelled nice. She wanted to pick it and give it to Tom.
+
+She ran to the gate and reached for the flower. But she did not see the bee that was on it. The bee was angry and stung her hand. Sara cried out loud and dropped the flower. It hurt a lot.
+
+Tom heard her cry and ran to her. He saw the bee flying away and the flower on the ground. He saw Sara's hand was red and swollen. He felt sorry for her and hugged her.
+
+"Are you okay, Sara?" he asked.
+
+"No, it hurts. The bee was bad. It slapped me with its tail," Sara said.
+
+Tom did not know what to say. He did not know that bees had tails. He thought they had stingers. But he did not want to make Sara more upset. He wanted to make her feel better.
+
+He picked up the flower and gave it to her. He said, "Here, this is for you. It is a beautiful flower. You are a beautiful friend. I like you, Sara."
+
+Sara smiled and took the flower. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You are a nice friend. I like you, too."
+
+They held hands and walked back to the house. They asked Mom for some ice and a band-aid. Mom kissed Sara's hand and said, "You are brave, Sara. Bees can be mean sometimes. But they also make honey. Honey is sweet and good for you."
+
+Sara and Tom nodded. They liked honey. They ate some honey and bread and felt better. They decided to play with their toys instead of the flowers. They did not want to meet any more bees. They had enough of slapping for one day.
+Lily and Tom were playing on the beach. They liked to build sand castles and dig holes. They also liked to splash in the water, but not too far from their mom and dad.
+
+One day, they saw a big wave coming. It was bigger than any wave they had ever seen. Lily wanted to run away, but Tom wanted to see it. He ran towards the wave, shouting, "Look, Lily, look!"
+
+Lily was scared. She called to Tom, "Tom, come back! The wave is too big! It will hurt you!"
+
+But Tom did not listen. He wanted to touch the wave. He reached out his hand, but the wave was faster. It crashed on Tom and knocked him down. He felt the water in his mouth and nose. He felt the sand on his skin. He felt the pain in his head.
+
+Lily ran to Tom and helped him get up. She was angry and worried. She said, "Tom, you are silly! Why did you do that? The wave was bad! It could have taken you away!"
+
+Tom was crying. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I wanted to see the wave. I didn't know it would hurt me."
+
+Their mom and dad saw what happened. They ran to Lily and Tom and hugged them. They were glad they were safe, but they were also frustrated. They said, "Tom, you were very naughty. You did not listen to Lily or to us. You could have been in big trouble. We have to punish you. You cannot play on the beach for the rest of the day. You have to sit on the towel and watch."
+
+Tom felt sad. He said, "I'm sorry, mom and dad. I won't do it again. I love you."
+
+Lily felt sorry for Tom. She said, "I love you too, Tom. Maybe tomorrow you can play with me again. But you have to be careful and listen. The wave is not your friend. It is dangerous."
+Lily and Ben were excited to go to the park with Mom. They put on their hats and shoes and ran to the car. Mom drove them to the park and they saw many things on the way. They saw a big red truck, a yellow bus, and a green bike.
+
+When they got to the park, they saw a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. Lily and Ben smiled and ran to the slide. They took turns going down the slide and laughing. Mom watched them and smiled too.
+
+Then they saw a boy and a girl playing with a ball. They looked friendly and fun. Lily and Ben asked Mom if they could play with them. Mom said yes and walked with them to the ball. They said hello to the boy and the girl and asked their names. The boy said his name was Sam and the girl said her name was Mia.
+
+"Can we play with your ball?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can play with us!" Sam said.
+
+They played catch with the ball and had a lot of fun. They shared and took turns and said nice things. Mom sat on a bench and talked to Sam and Mia's mom. They were happy to see their children play together.
+
+Lily and Ben made new friends at the park. They felt peace and joy in their hearts. They thanked Sam and Mia for playing with them and said goodbye. They hugged Mom and told her they had a great time. They got back in the car and drove home. They smiled all the way.
+Sam and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun with their cars, dolls, and blocks. But then they saw a big board leaning against the wall. It was brown and smooth and had letters and numbers on it.
+
+"Let's play with the board!" Sam said. He ran to the board and tried to lift it. But it was too heavy for him. He dropped it on the floor with a loud bang.
+
+"Oops!" Sam said. He looked at the board and saw a crack on it. He felt bad. He did not want to break the board.
+
+Mia came to see what happened. She saw the board and the crack. She was angry. She liked the board. It was her board. She used it to learn and draw.
+
+"You broke my board!" Mia shouted. She grabbed the board and tried to pull it away from Sam. But Sam did not let go. He held on to the board and tried to pull it back.
+
+"Give me the board!" Sam shouted. He and Mia started to tug and pull on the board. They both wanted the board.
+
+But then the board snapped in half. It made a loud noise. Sam and Mia both fell on the floor. They looked at the broken board. They felt miserable. They did not want to play with the board anymore. They wanted to fix the board.
+
+They heard a voice from the kitchen. It was their mom. She heard the noise and came to see what was wrong.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked. She saw the broken board and the sad faces of Sam and Mia. She knew they had a fight.
+
+"Mom, we're sorry!" Sam and Mia said. They both felt guilty. They did not mean to break the board.
+
+Mom sighed. She was not happy. She liked the board too. It was a gift from their grandma. She picked up the pieces of the board and put them on the table.
+
+"Sam, Mia, you need to learn to share and be gentle with your things. You can't squeeze and break them. They will get ruined. And you will get hurt. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Sam and Mia nodded. They understood. They hugged Mom and said sorry. They also hugged each other and said sorry. They did not want to fight anymore. They wanted to play nicely.
+
+Mom smiled. She was glad they made up. She gave them a kiss and said she loved them. She said she would try to fix the board later. She told them to go and play with their other toys.
+
+Sam and Mia said okay. They went back to the living room and picked up their cars, dolls, and blocks. They played with them together. They shared and were gentle. They had fun. They forgot about the board. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy guns in the garden. They liked to pretend they were cowboys and bandits. Lily wore a hat and a badge. Ben wore a mask and a scarf.
+
+"Bang, bang, you're dead!" Lily shouted, pointing her gun at Ben.
+
+"No, I'm not, you missed!" Ben said, hiding behind a bush.
+
+They ran around, shooting and dodging, having fun. Then they heard a cry from the house. It was their baby brother, Sam. He was awake from his nap.
+
+"Let's go see Sam," Lily said, dropping her gun.
+
+"OK," Ben said, following her.
+
+They went inside and found their mom holding Sam. He had a big smile and a wet diaper.
+
+"Hi, Lily and Ben," their mom said. "Do you want to say hello to Sam?"
+
+"Yes, please," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They went close to Sam and kissed his cheek. He giggled and grabbed their hair.
+
+"Ow, Sam, that hurts!" Lily and Ben said.
+
+"Sorry, he doesn't know better," their mom said. "He's just curious. He thinks you're interesting."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They thought Sam was interesting, too. They loved their baby brother. They forgot about their toy guns. They wanted to play with Sam.
+Tom and Lily like to draw with crayons. They have many colors and papers. They draw houses, animals, flowers and cars. They have fun and make pretty pictures.
+
+One day, they want to show their pictures to mom and dad. They ask them to come and see. Mom and dad smile and say they are proud of their children. They say they will mark their pictures with stars.
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They want to get many stars. They ask mom and dad to be the judges. Mom and dad say yes. They say they will give one star for each thing they like in the picture.
+
+Mom and dad look at Tom's picture. They see a big house with a red roof and a blue door. They see a green tree and a yellow sun. They say they like the colors and the shapes. They mark Tom's picture with four stars.
+
+Tom is happy. He says thank you. He thinks he did a good job.
+
+Mom and dad look at Lily's picture. They see a pink cat with a purple bow and a rainbow tail. They see a heart and a star and a smiley face. They say they like the creativity and the details. They mark Lily's picture with five stars.
+
+Lily is happy. She says thank you. She thinks she did a better job.
+
+Tom is sad. He thinks Lily's picture is easy. He thinks he should get more stars. He says to Lily, "Your picture is easy. You just draw silly things. My picture is hard. I draw real things."
+
+Lily is mad. She says to Tom, "Your picture is easy. You just draw boring things. My picture is hard. I draw fun things."
+
+Tom and Lily start to argue. They say mean words to each other. They make loud noises.
+
+Mom and dad hear them. They come and see. They are not happy. They say to Tom and Lily, "Stop fighting. Your pictures are both good. You both worked hard. You both have different styles. You should be nice to each other. You should say sorry."
+
+Tom and Lily feel bad. They know mom and dad are right. They say sorry to each other. They hug and make up. They say they like each other's pictures. They say they are sorry for being mean.
+
+Mom and dad are happy. They say they are proud of their children. They say they love them. They give them hugs and kisses. They say they will hang their pictures on the wall.
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They smile and say thank you. They think they have the best mom and dad. They think they have the best pictures. They think they are the best friends.
+Anna was very impatient. She wanted to go to the park and play with her friends. But Mom said she had to wait until after lunch. Anna did not like to wait. She kept asking Mom, "Can we go now? Can we go now?"
+
+Mom said, "No, Anna, we have to eat first. Then we can go. It is a nice day, but we have to be healthy too."
+
+Anna did not want to eat. She wanted to run and swing and slide. She looked at the clock. It was very slow. She sighed and tapped her foot.
+
+Finally, Mom said, "Okay, Anna, we can go now. Put on your shoes and coat. And don't forget your hat."
+
+Anna was very happy. She rushed to get ready. She put on her shoes and coat and hat. She grabbed her ball and ran to the door. She said, "Come on, Mom, let's go!"
+
+Mom smiled and followed her. She said, "Slow down, Anna, we have plenty of time. The park is not far. And remember to be careful and polite."
+
+Anna nodded, but she did not slow down. She was too excited. She wanted to have fun. She loved the park. She loved the day. She ran and ran until she reached the gate. She saw her friends waiting for her. She shouted, "Hi, everyone, I'm here!"
+Lila and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their dog, Rex. Rex is a big, brown dog with long fur and a wet nose. He likes to run and jump and catch sticks.
+
+One day, Lila and Ben find a shiny thing on the ground. It is round and hard and has a face on it. "What is this?" Lila asks. "It is a copper," Ben says. He knows some big words. "You can buy things with it." He puts the copper in his pocket.
+
+They keep playing with Rex. They throw a ball and Rex chases it. He is very fast and strong. He brings the ball back to them and wags his tail. He is happy.
+
+But then, Rex sees a squirrel. He barks and runs after it. The squirrel is scared and climbs a tree. Rex tries to follow it, but he can't. He slips on the wet grass and falls. He yelps and rolls over.
+
+Lila and Ben run to Rex. They are worried. They hug him and pet him. "Are you okay, Rex?" Lila asks. Rex licks her face and wags his tail. He is okay. He is just a little dirty.
+
+Ben feels something in his pocket. He remembers the copper. He takes it out and shows it to Rex. "Look, Rex, this is a copper. You can buy things with it. Do you want it?" He asks. Rex sniffs the copper and barks. He wants it. He takes it in his mouth and runs away. He thinks it is a toy.
+
+Lila and Ben laugh. They don't mind. They have more coppers at home. They love Rex. He is a silly dog. They chase him and play with him. They have fun.
+Lily loved to record sounds with her toy phone. She liked to record her mom singing, her dad reading, and her cat meowing. She wanted to record something new and exciting.
+
+One night, there was a big storm. Lily heard loud noises and saw bright flashes in the sky. She ran to her window and saw lightning. She thought it was amazing and scary. She grabbed her toy phone and pressed the button.
+
+"Hello, this is Lily. I am recording the storm. Listen to the thunder and see the lightning. It is very loud and bright. I am not afraid. I am brave and curious. Maybe I will be famous for recording the storm. Goodbye!"
+
+She played back her recording and smiled. She was proud of herself. She showed her mom and dad her recording. They hugged her and praised her.
+
+"That was a great recording, Lily. You are very smart and creative. You captured the storm very well. Maybe you will be a famous reporter one day."
+
+Lily felt happy and loved. She thanked her mom and dad and went to bed. She dreamed of recording more sounds and seeing more lightning. She was a little star.
+Lily was a little frog who loved to hop. She hopped on the grass, on the rocks, on the logs, and on the lily pads. She liked to hop high and far, and see how many things she could hop over.
+
+One day, she saw a shiny thing in the water. It was a spear, but she did not know what it was. She thought it was a toy, and she wanted to play with it. She hopped closer and closer, until she could touch it with her nose.
+
+"Ouch!" she cried. The spear was sharp, and it hurt her nose. She hopped back, and saw a drop of red on the spear. It was her blood. She was scared, and she wanted to go home.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" a voice asked. It was her friend Ben, another frog. He had seen what happened, and he hopped over to help her.
+
+"No, Ben, I'm not okay. I found a shiny thing, and I wanted to play with it, but it was not a toy. It was a bad thing, and it cut my nose. Look, it made me bleed!" Lily said, and showed him her nose.
+
+Ben looked at the spear, and he knew what it was. He had heard his dad talk about it. It was a thing that some big animals used to catch and eat frogs. It was a dangerous thing, and they had to stay away from it.
+
+"Lily, that is a spear. It is not a toy, it is a weapon. Some big animals use it to hurt us. We have to be careful, and not touch it. Come on, let's go home. I will help you clean your nose, and put a leaf on it. It will make you feel better." Ben said, and took Lily's hand.
+
+Lily nodded, and followed Ben. She was glad he was her friend, and he knew how to help her. She learned a lesson that day. She learned that not all shiny things are toys, and that some things are delicate, and can break easily. She learned that she had to be careful, and not hop on everything she saw. She learned that hopping was fun, but not always safe.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They had a big bowl and some spoons and forks. They also had some fruit and cheese and bread.
+
+"Let's make a salad!" Lily said. She took an apple and cut it with a knife. She was very careful not to hurt herself. She put the apple pieces in the bowl. Tom took a banana and peeled it. He broke it into small bits and added them to the bowl.
+
+They looked for more things to put in the salad. They saw a shiny glass jar on the counter. It had a label that said "honey". They knew honey was sweet and sticky and good for salad.
+
+"Can we use some honey?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure!" Lily said. She reached for the jar and tried to open it. But it was too tight. She twisted and pulled, but it did not move. She asked Tom to help her. He pushed and tugged, but it did not budge.
+
+They tried harder and harder, but the jar was too stubborn. They did not notice that the bowl was near the edge of the counter. They did not see that the jar was slipping from their hands. They did not hear that their mom was coming into the kitchen.
+
+Suddenly, the jar flew out of their grasp and smashed on the floor. The honey spilled everywhere. The bowl tipped over and rolled off the counter. The fruit and cheese and bread scattered on the ground.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Tom cried.
+
+Their mom saw the mess and gasped. She was very angry. She pointed at the jar and the bowl and the food.
+
+"What have you done?" she shouted. "That jar was expensive! And that bowl was my favorite! And that food was for dinner! How could you be so careless?"
+
+Lily and Tom felt very sorry. They did not mean to break anything. They only wanted to make a salad. They looked at their mom with big, sad eyes.
+
+"We're sorry, mom," they said. "We tried to catch the jar, but it was too slippery. We tried to catch the bowl, but it was too fast. We tried to catch the food, but it was too many."
+
+Their mom sighed. She was still angry, but she also loved them. She knew they did not do it on purpose. She knew they were just kids.
+
+She hugged them and said, "It's okay. I forgive you. But next time, please be more careful. And ask me before you use anything in the kitchen. And help me clean up this mess."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They said, "We will, mom. We love you."
+
+They hugged her back and said, "We're sorry, mom."
+
+They picked up the spoons and forks and threw away the broken jar and the spoiled food. They wiped the honey and the juice from the floor. They washed the bowl and put it back on the shelf. They learned their lesson.
+
+They still liked to play in the kitchen, but they never touched the expensive jar or the favorite bowl again.
+Lila liked to swim in the sea. She had a friend who was a shark. His name was Sam. Sam was rare. He had spots on his skin. He was nice and gentle. He did not bite.
+
+One day, Lila wanted to invite Sam to her house. She asked her mom. "Mom, can I invite Sam to play? He is my friend. He is a shark."
+
+Her mom was surprised. "A shark? Are you sure, Lila? Sharks are scary. They have big teeth. They can hurt you."
+
+Lila shook her head. "No, mom. Sam is not scary. He is rare. He has spots. He is nice and gentle. He does not bite. Please, mom. Can I invite him?"
+
+Her mom thought for a while. She loved Lila and wanted her to be happy. She said, "OK, Lila. You can invite Sam. But you have to be careful. And you have to stay in the pool. No swimming in the sea with him. Do you understand?"
+
+Lila nodded. She was happy. She ran to the phone and called Sam. "Sam, do you want to come to my house? We can play in the pool. It will be fun."
+
+Sam was happy too. He liked Lila. She was his friend. He said, "Yes, Lila. I want to come to your house. I will be there soon."
+
+Lila and Sam had a great time. They played in the pool. They splashed and laughed. They were happy. They were friends.
+Lila liked to sing and play her toy guitar. She wanted to be a musician when she grew up. She believed that music made people happy and sad and everything in between.
+
+One day, she saw a poster of a real musician on the wall. He had a big guitar and a funny hat and a smile. Lila wanted to meet him and learn from him. She asked her mom if they could go to his show.
+
+"Sorry, Lila, his show is too far and too late for you. Maybe when you are older, you can see him," her mom said.
+
+Lila was sad. She really wanted to see the musician. She thought of a plan. She took her toy guitar and her hat and put them in her backpack. She waited until her mom was busy and then she sneaked out of the house. She followed the signs to the show.
+
+She walked and walked and walked. She got tired and hungry and thirsty. She saw many people and cars and noises. She got scared and lost. She wished she had stayed with her mom.
+
+She saw a big building with lights and music. She thought it was the show. She ran to the door, but a man stopped her.
+
+"Hey, kid, where are you going? You can't go in there. You need a ticket and a grown-up," the man said.
+
+"But I want to see the musician. He is my hero. I have a guitar and a hat like him. Please let me in," Lila said.
+
+The man looked at her. He saw her backpack and her toy guitar and her hat. He felt sorry for her. He also liked the musician. He had a spare ticket and a tight spot in the front row. He decided to help her.
+
+"OK, kid, you can come with me. But you have to promise me two things. One, you have to stay with me and not wander off. Two, you have to call your mom and tell her where you are and that you are safe. Deal?" the man said.
+
+Lila nodded. She was happy. She called her mom and told her the truth. Her mom was angry and worried, but also relieved. She told her to enjoy the show and to come back with the man.
+
+Lila and the man went inside. They saw the musician on the stage. He was playing his guitar and singing his songs. Lila was amazed. She sang along and clapped her hands. She felt happy and sad and everything in between.
+
+The musician saw Lila and the man in the front row. He smiled and waved at them. He thanked them for coming and dedicated a song to them. He said he believed in their dreams and hopes. He said he was once a kid like Lila who loved music and wanted to be a musician.
+
+Lila felt a warm feeling in her heart. She thanked the man for bringing her. She thanked the musician for inspiring her. She thanked her mom for loving her. She learned a lesson. She learned that music is a gift and a responsibility. She learned that she should always listen to her mom and be honest. She learned that she should never give up on her dreams, but also be careful and respectful. She learned that she was a lucky and a brave girl. She learned that she was a musician.
+Tom and Ben are friends. They like to play with sticks and pretend they are spears. They run and jump and throw the sticks at trees and rocks. They have fun.
+
+One day, they find a big stick with a sharp point. Tom says, "This is a real spear! I can hunt with this!" Ben says, "No, it is too dangerous. You can hurt yourself or someone else." Tom says, "You are scared. I am brave. Watch me!"
+
+Tom takes the spear and runs to a bush. He sees a rabbit hiding there. He throws the spear at the rabbit. But he misses. The spear flies past the rabbit and hits a bee hive. The bees are angry. They come out and sting Tom. Tom screams and runs away.
+
+Ben follows him. He sees Tom crying and rubbing his face. He has many red spots. Ben says, "Are you okay? I told you it was dangerous." Tom says, "I am sorry. I was stupid. I am ashamed." Ben says, "It is okay. I am your friend. I will help you." He takes Tom to his mom. She puts ice on his face and gives him a hug.
+
+Tom and Ben learn a lesson. They do not play with spears anymore. They play with other things. They are still friends. They have fun.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then Lily sees a big tire. It is round and black and has a hole in the middle. Lily wants to play with the tire. She runs to it and tries to roll it.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" she says. "I can roll the tire!"
+
+Ben looks at Lily. He does not want to play with the tire. He wants to play on the swings. He runs to the swings and sits on one. He pushes with his feet and goes high.
+
+"Lily, come here!" he says. "The swings are fun!"
+
+Lily does not hear Ben. She is busy with the tire. She rolls it faster and faster. She laughs and shouts.
+
+But then the tire goes too fast. It rolls away from Lily. It rolls down the hill. It rolls into the road.
+
+Lily is scared. She runs after the tire. She does not see the cars. She does not hear the horns.
+
+"Stop, Lily, stop!" Ben yells. He jumps off the swing and runs to Lily. He grabs her hand and pulls her back.
+
+"Lily, you are not safe!" he says. "The tire is not a toy. The road is not a place to play. You could get hurt!"
+
+Lily is sorry. She did not mean to be bad. She hugs Ben and says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. You saved me."
+
+Ben hugs Lily and says, "You are welcome, Lily. You are a good friend too. But next time, listen to me. OK?"
+
+Lily nods and says, "OK. I will listen to you. And I will not play with the tire anymore."
+
+They go back to the park. They play on the swings and the slide. They have a lot of fun.
+
+They see a man. He has a truck. He picks up the tire and puts it in the truck. He drives away.
+
+Lily and Ben wave to the man. They say, "Bye, bye, tire. Have a sweet ride."
+Lily and Ben are playing with their new toy box. It is big and blue and has many screws to hold it together. Lily likes to measure things with her ruler. She measures the toy box and says, "It is very long and wide and high. How many toys can we fit inside?"
+
+Ben does not care about measuring. He likes to screw and unscrew the screws with his screwdriver. He says, "I don't know how many toys, but I know how many screws. There are twenty screws. Look, I can take them out and put them back in. It is fun!"
+
+Lily and Ben take turns playing with the ruler and the screwdriver. They also put some of their toys inside the toy box. They have a teddy bear, a ball, a doll, a car, a book and a puzzle. They try to arrange them neatly, but the toy box is still not full.
+
+"Let's get more toys!" Lily says. "We have more in our room. Come on, Ben!"
+
+"Okay, Lily!" Ben says. "But first, let me screw this last screw. I don't want the toy box to fall apart."
+
+They finish screwing the screws and run to their room. They bring back more toys and fill the toy box. They are happy with their new toy box. They hug each other and say, "We love our toy box. And we love playing together!"
+Ben and Mia were very excited. It was the night of the big firework show. They put on their warm coats and hats and went with Mom and Dad to the park. There were many people and cars and lights.
+
+"Look, there's a big truck with a lot of firework boxes!" Mia said, pointing. "Do you think they will make loud noises and pretty colors?"
+
+"I hope so," Ben said. "But I'm not scared. I can whistle when I hear a loud noise. Like this." He put his lips together and blew. He made a high-pitched sound. "See? It's easy. Can you whistle, Mia?"
+
+Mia tried to whistle, but she only made a puff of air. She frowned. "No, I can't. It's hard. How do you do it?"
+
+Ben smiled. "You have to make a small hole with your lips, like this. And then blow gently, like this." He whistled again. "Try it."
+
+Mia tried again, but she still couldn't whistle. She felt sad. "I can't do it. It's not fair. You can whistle and I can't."
+
+"Don't be sad, Mia. Maybe you can whistle later. Come on, let's go find a good spot to watch the firework show. Maybe they will start soon."
+
+They followed Mom and Dad to a grassy hill, where they spread a blanket and sat down. They waited for the firework show to start. They saw some stars in the sky and heard some music from a speaker.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud boom. They looked up and saw a bright red firework explode in the air. It made a beautiful shape, like a flower. Then they heard another boom, and another, and another. They saw more fireworks, in different colors and shapes. They saw blue, green, yellow, purple, and pink. They saw circles, stars, hearts, and smiley faces. They oohed and aahed and clapped their hands.
+
+Mia forgot about whistling. She was amazed by the fireworks. She felt happy. She looked at Ben and saw that he was happy too. He was not whistling. He was watching the fireworks with wide eyes.
+
+They watched the firework show until the end. They saw a big finale, with many fireworks at once. It was very loud and very bright. It was like a rainbow in the sky. They cheered and hugged Mom and Dad.
+
+They went back to the car, feeling tired but happy. They saw that the park was very messy. There were many firework boxes and papers and trash on the ground. They felt sorry for the people who had to clean it up.
+
+"Wow, that was the best firework show ever!" Ben said.
+
+"It was, it was!" Mia agreed. "Thank you, Mom and Dad, for taking us to see it."
+
+"You're welcome, sweeties," Mom said. "We're glad you enjoyed it. Did you have fun, Ben?"
+
+"Yes, I did. I saw many pretty colors and shapes. And I whistled when I heard a loud noise."
+
+"That's good, Ben. And how about you, Mia? Did you have fun?"
+
+"Yes, I did. I saw many pretty colors and shapes too. And I didn't whistle, but I didn't mind. I liked the firework show more than whistling."
+
+"That's good, Mia. Maybe you can whistle another day. But today, you saw something wonderful. And that's more important than whistling."
+
+Mia nodded. She felt happy. She snuggled with Ben and Mom and Dad in the car. They drove home, talking about the firework show. They had a wonderful night.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to go to the park with Mom. Mom says they have to listen to her and be polite on the bus.
+
+One day, they wait for the bus at the stop. The bus is big and yellow. It makes a loud noise. Tom and Lily are excited. They want to sit by the window and see the cars and the trees.
+
+The bus comes and the door opens. Mom says, "Say hello to the driver and show him your tickets." Tom and Lily say hello and give their tickets to the driver. The driver smiles and says, "Thank you. You are very polite. You can sit anywhere you like."
+
+Tom and Lily run to the back of the bus and find two seats by the window. They look out and see many things. They see a dog, a bike, a shop, a school, and a bridge. They point and say the names of the things they see.
+
+Mom sits next to them and says, "You are doing very well. You are listening to me and being polite on the bus. I am proud of you. When we get to the park, we can play on the swings and the slide. Do you like that?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod and say, "Yes, Mom. We like that. We like the park. We like the bus. We like you." They hug Mom and smile. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the big building where their mom works. Sometimes, they go up and down in the elevator. The elevator has buttons with numbers and pictures. Anna likes to press the buttons and see the doors open and close.
+
+One day, they go to the big building with their mom. Mom says she has to do some work and they can play in the lobby. The lobby has a big couch, a fish tank, and a gray rug. Anna and Ben run around and look at the fish. They see the elevator and want to go inside.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's go in the elevator!" Anna says.
+
+"OK, Anna, but don't press too many buttons!" Ben says.
+
+They go in the elevator and Anna presses some buttons. The elevator starts to move. They hear a ding and the doors open. They see a different floor with different people and things. Anna presses another button and the doors close. The elevator moves again.
+
+They do this a few more times. They see a floor with books, a floor with toys, a floor with plants, and a floor with food. They have fun and laugh. They forget about their mom and the lobby.
+
+Then, the elevator stops. They hear a loud noise and the lights go off. They are in the dark. They are scared.
+
+"Anna, what happened?" Ben asks.
+
+"I don't know, Ben, maybe the elevator is broken!" Anna says.
+
+They hug each other and cry. They want their mom. They want to go back to the lobby.
+
+They hear a voice from a speaker. It is their mom.
+
+"Anna, Ben, are you there? Can you hear me?" Mom says.
+
+"Mom, mom, we are here! We are in the elevator! Help us!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+"Don't worry, my loves, I'm here. The elevator is stuck, but someone is coming to fix it. You are safe. Just remain calm and wait for me. I love you!" Mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben feel better. They hear their mom and know she is near. They remain in the elevator and wait for her. They hope the elevator will work soon and they can see her again. They say sorry for being naughty and promise to be good. They hold hands and sing a song. They are brave twins.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and water the plants. They saw a big white thing with many small parts. It was a cauliflower. Sara wanted to pick it and eat it.
+
+"Can we have this?" she asked Ben.
+
+Ben shook his head. "No, we have to ask Mom first. And we need a knife to cut it. Knives are sharp. They can hurt you."
+
+Sara was curious. She wanted to see the knife. She ran to the kitchen and looked for a knife. She found one on the counter. It was shiny and had a long blade. She reached for it.
+
+"Stop!" Ben shouted. He followed her and grabbed her hand. "That knife is very sharp. You can't touch it. You will cut yourself."
+
+Sara dropped the knife. She was scared. She started to cry. Ben hugged her and said sorry.
+
+"It's okay, Sara. I didn't mean to yell. I just wanted to keep you safe. Knives are not for playing. They are for grown-ups."
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the knife and the cauliflower. She smiled and said, "What are you two doing?"
+
+"We wanted to eat the cauliflower," Sara said.
+
+Mom laughed. "That's very charming of you. But you have to wash it and cook it first. And you have to be careful with knives. They are sharp and dangerous. Come, I'll show you how to make a yummy soup with the cauliflower."
+
+Sara and Ben followed Mom. They helped her wash and chop the cauliflower. They added some water, salt, and cheese. They stirred and waited. Soon, the soup was ready. They poured it into bowls and tasted it. It was warm and creamy and delicious.
+
+Sara and Ben liked the soup. They thanked Mom and gave her a kiss. They learned that cauliflower was good to eat, but knives were bad to touch. They were happy and full. They went back to the garden and played some more.
+Sara loves her dog, Spot. Spot is big and brown and likes to run and play. Sara likes to take Spot for walks with a leash. A leash is a long rope that keeps Spot near Sara.
+
+One day, Sara and Spot met a boy and a cat on the street. The boy was mean and the cat was black and hissy. The boy said, "Look at that silly dog! He has to wear a leash like a baby. My cat is free and smart. He can do what he wants." The boy teased Sara and Spot.
+
+Spot did not like the boy or the cat. He barked and pulled on the leash. He wanted to chase the cat and scare the boy. Sara tried to calm Spot. She said, "Spot, stop! It's okay. The boy is just mean. You are a good dog. You are not a baby. You wear a leash because you love me and I love you."
+
+The cat saw Spot barking and pulling. He thought Spot was funny. He wanted to tease Spot too. He ran close to Spot and then ran away. He said, "Meow, meow, meow! You can't catch me, dog. You are stuck on a leash. You are slow and dumb. Meow, meow, meow!"
+
+Spot was very angry. He broke the leash and ran after the cat. The cat was scared and ran away. The boy was scared too. He said, "Help! Help! The dog is loose! He is going to bite me!" He ran away too.
+
+Sara was worried. She said, "Spot, come back! Come back!" She ran after Spot. She hoped Spot would not get lost or hurt.
+
+Spot chased the cat and the boy for a while. He barked and growled. He felt strong and brave. But then he saw Sara running behind him. He saw Sara was sad and scared. He remembered Sara was his friend. He loved Sara. He stopped chasing the cat and the boy. He ran back to Sara. He licked Sara's face. He said, "Woof, woof, woof! I'm sorry, Sara. I love you, Sara. You are my friend."
+
+Sara hugged Spot. She said, "I love you too, Spot. You are my friend. You are a good dog. But you have to be careful. You can't break the leash. You can't chase the cat and the boy. They are mean, but they are not worth it. You have to be calm and nice."
+
+Spot nodded. He said, "Woof, woof, woof! I understand, Sara. I will be calm and nice. I will not break the leash. I will not chase the cat and the boy. They are mean, but I don't care. I have you and you have me. We are happy."
+
+Sara smiled. She said, "That's right, Spot. We are happy. Come on, let's go home. I have a new leash for you. And a treat. And a hug."
+
+Spot wagged his tail. He said, "Woof, woof, woof! Yay, Sara! Yay, home! Yay, leash! Yay, treat! Yay, hug!"
+
+Sara and Spot walked home. They were happy. They did not care about the boy and the cat. They had each other. They were friends.
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toy cars in the garden. They like to make noises and pretend they are driving fast. Mia has a red car and Tom has a blue car. They are having fun.
+
+But then, Tom sees a big ball near the fence. He wants to play with it. He leaves his car and runs to the ball. He picks it up and throws it in the air. He laughs.
+
+Mia is not happy. She likes to play with Tom and his car. She does not like the ball. She thinks Tom is being mean. She runs after him and shouts.
+
+"Tom, come back! Play with me and the cars! The ball is not fun!"
+
+Tom does not listen. He catches the ball and throws it again. He thinks Mia is being silly. He says.
+
+"Mia, go away! The ball is fun! The cars are boring!"
+
+Mia is very angry. She grabs Tom's car and strikes him on the ear with it. Tom cries out. He drops the ball and holds his ear. He says.
+
+"Ow, Mia, that hurts! Why did you do that? You are not nice!"
+
+Mia feels sorry. She did not want to hurt Tom. She just wanted to play with him. She says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. I was mad. I like to play with you and the cars. You are my friend. Can we play together?"
+
+Tom rubs his ear. He is still sad. He says.
+
+"OK, Mia. I'm sorry too. I was rude. I like to play with you and the cars too. You are my friend. You are reliable. Can we share the ball?"
+
+Mia smiles. She nods. She says.
+
+"Yes, Tom. We can share the ball. We can take turns. We can have more fun."
+
+Tom and Mia hug. They pick up their cars and the ball. They play together in the garden. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. But they also liked to try new things. They liked to dare each other to do something fun or scary.
+
+One day, they saw a big rope hanging from a tree. It looked like a swing, but higher and faster. Tom said to Lily, "I dare you to swing on the rope. It looks like fun." Lily said, "I don't know, Tom. It looks too high and too fast. Is the rope reliable? Will it break?" Tom said, "Don't be scared, Lily. The rope is strong and safe. I will go first and show you."
+
+Tom ran to the rope and grabbed it with both hands. He swung back and forth, higher and higher. He shouted, "Whee! This is fun! Come on, Lily, try it!" Lily watched Tom and felt curious. She wanted to try it too, but she was still a little scared. She said, "OK, Tom, I will try it. But you have to catch me when I jump off."
+
+Tom said, "OK, Lily, I will catch you. You are my best friend. I will not let you fall." He stopped swinging and jumped off the rope. He landed on the grass and smiled. He said, "See, Lily, it is easy and fun. Now it is your turn."
+
+Lily took a deep breath and ran to the rope. She grabbed it with both hands and swung back and forth, higher and higher. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She felt brave and happy. She said, "Whee! This is fun! Thank you, Tom, for daring me!" Tom said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are very brave. Now, are you ready to jump off?" Lily said, "Yes, Tom, I am ready. Catch me!" She let go of the rope and flew in the air. Tom ran to her and caught her in his arms. They both laughed and hugged. They said, "We did it! We swung on the rope! We are the best!" They were very proud of themselves and each other. They decided to swing on the rope again and again, until it was time to go home. They had a lot of fun and learned something new. They were best friends who liked to dare each other.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they have beef for lunch. Tom likes beef a lot. He eats his beef fast and wants more.
+
+"Can I have some of your beef, Sue?" Tom asks.
+
+"No, Tom. This is my beef. You ate yours already," Sue says.
+
+"But I am still hungry. Please, Sue. Just a little bit," Tom begs.
+
+"No, Tom. Go away. This is mine," Sue says. She is angry. She does not want to share.
+
+Tom is angry too. He wants Sue's beef. He tries to grab it from her plate. Sue pulls it back. They fight over the beef. They yell and push each other.
+
+"Stop it, Tom and Sue!" Mom says. She hears the noise. She comes to the kitchen. She sees the mess. She is angry too. "What are you doing? You are not nice. You are not friends. You have to share and be kind."
+
+She takes the beef from them. She puts it in the trash. She makes them sit in the corner. She closes the door. She says they have to stay there until they say sorry.
+
+Tom and Sue are sad. They do not like to fight. They do not like to be in the corner. They do not like to waste food. They look at each other. They feel sorry.
+
+"Sorry, Sue. I was greedy. I should have asked nicely," Tom says.
+
+"Sorry, Tom. I was mean. I should have shared a little bit," Sue says.
+
+They hug and make up. They knock on the door. They call Mom. They tell her they are sorry. Mom opens the door. She smiles. She is happy. She gives them a hug and a kiss. She says they are good. She says they can play again. But no more beef today.
+Lila and Ben were going to the park with Mom. They liked the park. It had swings and slides and a big sandbox. They put on their hats and shoes and ran to the car.
+
+"Wait, wait," Mom said. "You have to buckle up first. It is safe to buckle up in the car."
+
+Lila and Ben climbed into their seats and tried to buckle their belts. Lila did it by herself. She was proud. Ben needed some help. Mom helped him and gave him a kiss.
+
+"Good job, both of you," Mom said. "Now we can go to the park."
+
+They drove to the park and saw many other kids playing. Lila and Ben jumped out of the car and ran to the swings. They took turns pushing each other. They laughed and shouted.
+
+"Look, Mom, look how high I can go!" Lila said.
+
+"You are so brave, Lila," Mom said. "And you, Ben, you are so strong."
+
+Lila and Ben smiled. They loved Mom. She was lovely. They had a lot of fun at the park.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make up stories and act them out with their dolls and cars. Tom was a doctor and Lily was a patient. He had a toy needle that he used to pretend to give shots.
+
+"Are you ready for your shot, Lily?" Tom asked, holding the needle.
+
+Lily was scared of needles. She did not like how they hurt and made her cry. She shook her head and hid behind a pillow.
+
+"No, Tom, no shot. I don't want it. It's bad."
+
+Tom tried to make her feel better. He said, "But Lily, you need the shot to be healthy and strong. It's not bad, it's good. It only hurts a little bit, and then it's over. And you get a sticker and a hug after. Don't you want that?"
+
+Lily peeked out from the pillow. She liked stickers and hugs. She asked, "Really? Only a little bit? And I get a sticker and a hug?"
+
+Tom nodded. He said, "Yes, really. Trust me, Lily. I'm a doctor. I know what I'm doing. Come on, be brave. It will be okay."
+
+Lily took a deep breath. She decided to trust Tom. She said, "Okay, Tom. I'll try. But be gentle, please."
+
+Tom smiled. He said, "Of course, Lily. I'll be gentle. You're a good patient. And a good sister. You're very lucky to have me as your doctor."
+
+He gave her the shot with the toy needle. It did not hurt at all. Lily was surprised. She said, "That's it? That was easy. It didn't hurt at all."
+
+Tom said, "See? I told you. You did great, Lily. I'm proud of you. Here's your sticker and your hug."
+
+He gave her a sticker with a star and a hug. Lily smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You're a good doctor. And a good brother. I'm very lucky to have you as my brother."
+
+They hugged again and continued to play. They were happy and healthy. They loved each other very much.
+Lila and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and run in the park. But today, they are bored. They have no new toys and the park is too far.
+
+"Let's go to the store and buy some gum," Lila says. "Gum is fun. We can blow bubbles and make noises."
+
+"OK," Ben says. "But we have no money. How can we buy gum?"
+
+Lila thinks for a moment. She sees a jar on the shelf. It has some coins inside. It is Mom's jar. She saves money for a rainy day.
+
+"Let's take some coins from Mom's jar," Lila says. "She won't mind. She has many coins. We only need a few."
+
+Ben is not sure. He knows Mom does not like it when they touch her things. But he wants some gum too. He follows Lila to the shelf. They climb on a chair and reach for the jar.
+
+But the jar is too heavy. Lila and Ben cannot hold it. It slips from their hands and falls to the floor. It breaks with a loud crash. Coins and glass scatter everywhere.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She runs to the room. She sees the mess and the twins. She is angry.
+
+"What have you done?" she asks. "Why did you touch my jar? You know you are not supposed to do that. You are very naughty."
+
+Lila and Ben are scared. They try to explain.
+
+"We wanted some gum," Lila says. "We were bored. We thought you had too many coins."
+
+Mom shakes her head. She is not happy.
+
+"Gum is not good for you," she says. "It makes your teeth dirty and your tummy ache. And you don't need to buy gum. You have many toys and books. You can play with them or read them. You are just lazy. You need to use your imagination."
+
+She picks up the twins and takes them to their room. She makes them clean up the mess and put the coins back in a new jar. She tells them they are grounded for a week. They cannot go to the park or watch TV.
+
+Lila and Ben are sad. They wish they had not touched Mom's jar. They wish they had not wanted gum. They wish they had played with their toys or read their books. They learn their lesson. They say they are sorry to Mom. They hug her and promise to be good.
+Lily and Ben wanted to watch a movie. They liked movies with animals and songs. They asked Mom if they could watch a movie on the big TV.
+
+Mom said yes, but they had to finish their lunch first. She gave them sandwiches and apples. Lily and Ben ate quickly. They did not want to miss the movie.
+
+They ran to the living room and turned on the TV. They looked for a movie with animals and songs. They found one about a lion and a mouse. They were happy. They sat on the couch and watched the movie.
+
+The movie was peaceful. The lion and the mouse were friends. They helped each other and had fun. Lily and Ben smiled and laughed. They liked the movie.
+
+But then, the TV made a loud noise. It turned off. Lily and Ben were sad. They wanted to watch the movie. They did not know what happened.
+
+Mom came to the living room. She saw the TV was off. She saw Lily and Ben were sad. She said, "I'm sorry, kids. The power went out. We can't watch the movie now."
+
+Lily and Ben asked, "Why did the power go out, Mom?"
+
+Mom said, "Sometimes, there is a storm or a problem with the wires. The power goes out to prevent a fire or a shock. It is not safe to use the TV or the lights when the power is out. We have to wait until the power comes back."
+
+Lily and Ben said, "Oh, we understand, Mom. But we liked the movie. Can we watch it later?"
+
+Mom said, "Of course, we can watch it later. When the power comes back, we can watch the movie again. Or we can watch another movie. Or we can do something else. We can read a book, or play a game, or draw a picture. What do you want to do?"
+
+Lily and Ben thought for a moment. They said, "We want to do all of those things, Mom. But first, can we have a hug?"
+
+Mom smiled and hugged Lily and Ben. She said, "I love you, kids. You are very good and smart. You make me happy."
+
+Lily and Ben said, "We love you too, Mom. You are very kind and sweet. You make us happy."
+
+They hugged Mom and felt peaceful. They did not mind the power was out. They had each other and they had fun. They waited for the power to come back and the movie to start again.
+Lila and Tom were friends. They liked to walk in the park with their moms. One day, they saw a big green plant with many sharp points. It was a cactus.
+
+"Look, Tom, a cactus!" Lila said. "It is so big and green!"
+
+"Yes, Lila, it is a cactus," Tom said. "But be careful, it has many sharp points. They can hurt you."
+
+Lila wanted to touch the cactus. She was curious. She reached out her hand slowly. But Tom stopped her.
+
+"No, Lila, don't touch it!" Tom said. "It will poke you and make you cry. Listen to me, I know."
+
+Lila was sad. She wanted to touch the cactus. She thought it was pretty. She did not listen to Tom. She moved her hand again. But then she felt a sharp pain. The cactus poked her finger. She cried out loud.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lila said. "It hurts, it hurts!"
+
+Tom ran to her. He took her hand and looked at her finger. There was a small red spot. He blew on it gently. He hugged her and said sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lila, I told you not to touch it," Tom said. "Are you okay?"
+
+Lila nodded. She was still crying. She felt silly and sorry. She hugged Tom back and said sorry too.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom, I did not listen to you," Lila said. "You were right. The cactus is not nice. It is mean."
+
+Tom smiled. He was glad Lila was okay. He was proud of himself. He was a good friend. He helped Lila.
+
+"It's okay, Lila, I forgive you," Tom said. "You are my friend. I will always help you. Come on, let's go find our moms. They will make you feel better."
+
+Lila smiled too. She was happy Tom was her friend. He was kind and smart. She followed him. They walked away from the cactus. They did not look at it again. They learned their lesson.
+Lily was troubled. She wanted to play with her new doll, but she could not find it. She looked under her bed, in her closet, and in her toy box, but the doll was not there. She felt sad and angry.
+
+She went to her aunt, who was in the kitchen. Her aunt was making cookies for Lily and her brother. Lily liked cookies, but she liked her doll more.
+
+"Aunt, where is my doll?" she asked. "I can't find it anywhere."
+
+Her aunt smiled and hugged her. "Don't worry, Lily. I know where your doll is. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily nodded. She hoped her aunt had not given her doll to someone else.
+
+Her aunt took her hand and led her to the living room. There, on the couch, was her brother, holding her doll. He was making funny noises and pretending to feed the doll.
+
+"Look, Lily. Your brother found your doll. He wanted to play with it, too. He likes your doll, just like you."
+
+Lily felt a mix of feelings. She was happy to see her doll, but she was also annoyed that her brother had taken it without asking. She wanted to snatch the doll from him, but she also wanted to share.
+
+She looked at her aunt, who smiled again. "Why don't you ask your brother if you can play with the doll together? Maybe he will say yes. And then you can both have cookies."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She decided to try. She walked up to her brother and said, "Can I play with the doll, too? Please?"
+
+Her brother looked at her and then at the doll. He saw that she was troubled. He felt sorry for her. He nodded and handed her the doll. "Okay. You can play with the doll, too. But you have to be gentle."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged the doll. She thanked her brother and her aunt. She felt happy again. She and her brother played with the doll for a while, and then they ate cookies. They had a good time. Lily was not troubled anymore.
+Sam and Lily liked to ride their bikes. They had red bikes with big wheels and bells. They rode their bikes every day after school. They rode fast and slow, up and down, and around and around.
+
+One day, they decided to have a race. They wanted to see who was the fastest. They were competitive. They liked to win. They made a line with chalk on the sidewalk. They said, "Ready, set, go!" and they started to pedal.
+
+Sam and Lily rode as fast as they could. They passed the trees, the cars, and the dogs. They were almost at the end of the street. They were very close to each other. They could not see who was ahead.
+
+"Who will win?" Sam asked.
+
+"I will win!" Lily said.
+
+"No, I will win!" Sam said.
+
+They crossed the finish line at the same time. They stopped their bikes and looked at each other. They were both out of breath. They smiled.
+
+"We both won!" Lily said.
+
+"We both won!" Sam said.
+
+They gave each other a high five. They were happy. They rode their bikes back home. They were still competitive, but they were also friends.
+Tom and Mia are playing in the garden. They see a big green plant with many sharp things on it. Mia wants to touch it, but Tom says no.
+
+"That is a cactus. It can hurt you. Look, it has no hair. It is bald like grandpa," Tom says.
+
+"Why is it bald? Why does it have sharp things?" Mia asks.
+
+Tom does not know the answer. He thinks for a moment. He makes up a story.
+
+"Maybe it is bald because it is very old. Maybe it has sharp things because it is angry. Maybe it does not like people or animals to come near it," Tom says.
+
+Mia is not sure if Tom is telling the truth. She wants to find out more. She goes closer to the cactus. She says hello to it.
+
+"Hello, cactus. Why are you bald? Why are you angry? Do you want to be my friend?" Mia says.
+
+The cactus does not answer. It does not move or make a sound. It just stands there, green and bald and sharp.
+
+Mia is disappointed. She thinks the cactus is rude. She goes back to Tom.
+
+"Tom, the cactus did not answer me. It did not say anything. It is not a nice plant. I do not like it," Mia says.
+
+Tom nods. He agrees with Mia. He does not like the cactus either. He likes flowers and trees and grass. They are soft and colorful and friendly.
+
+"Come on, Mia. Let's go play somewhere else. The cactus can be alone. We can have fun with the other plants," Tom says.
+
+Mia smiles. She follows Tom. They leave the cactus behind. They do not look at it again. They do not care about it. They have each other. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were spies and look for clues. Tom had a toy pistol that he got for his birthday. He thought it was very cool and made a loud noise when he pressed the trigger.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a pistol!" Tom said, showing his toy to his sister. "It can shoot bad guys and make them run away."
+
+Lily was not impressed. She had seen many pistols on TV and in books. She wanted to find something more unusual and interesting.
+
+"That's not a real pistol, Tom. It's just a toy. And it's not unusual. Many kids have pistols like that. I want to see something different. Something that makes me say wow!" Lily said, looking around the park.
+
+Tom felt sad. He wanted to make Lily happy and have fun with her. He looked around the park too, hoping to find something unusual. He saw a big tree, a swing, a slide, a bench, a fountain, and a trash can. Nothing seemed unusual to him.
+
+Then he saw something shiny and colorful in the trash can. He ran to it and took it out. It was a display of fireworks. Someone had thrown it away after the Fourth of July. Tom had never seen fireworks before. He thought they were very pretty and sparkly.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found something unusual!" Tom said, holding the display of fireworks. "It's a display of fireworks. They can make bright lights and loud noises in the sky. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily ran to Tom and looked at the display of fireworks. She had never seen fireworks before either. She thought they were very pretty and sparkly too.
+
+"Wow, Tom, you're right. That's very unusual. And very cool. How do we make them work?" Lily asked, curious and excited.
+
+Tom looked at the display of fireworks. He saw a string at the end. He remembered that his dad had told him that strings could start fires. He thought that maybe the string could start the fireworks too.
+
+"Maybe we have to pull the string," Tom said, grabbing the string. "Let's try it."
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to see the fireworks. She grabbed the string too. They pulled the string together.
+
+Suddenly, the display of fireworks exploded. It made a loud bang and sent sparks flying everywhere. Tom and Lily screamed and dropped the display. They ran away from the trash can, scared and surprised.
+
+The people in the park heard the noise and saw the smoke. They wondered what had happened. They saw Tom and Lily running away from the trash can, holding each other's hands.
+
+"Are you kids okay?" a man asked, running to them. "What did you do?"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at the man. They looked at each other. They looked at the trash can. They felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+"We found a display of fireworks in the trash can," Tom said, in a small voice. "We pulled the string. We didn't know it would explode."
+
+The man looked at the trash can. He saw the remains of the display of fireworks. He shook his head and sighed.
+
+"That was very dangerous, kids. You could have hurt yourselves or someone else. You should never play with fireworks. They are not toys. They are for adults only. And you should never take things from the trash can. They could be dirty or broken or harmful. Do you understand?" the man said, in a stern voice.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They understood. They felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+"We're sorry, mister. We won't do it again. We were just looking for something unusual to play with," Lily said, in a small voice.
+
+The man softened his voice. He saw that they were scared and sorry. He wanted to teach them a lesson, but not to scare them too much.
+
+"I know, kids. I know you were curious and wanted to have fun. But you have to be careful and smart. There are many things in the world that are unusual and fun, but also safe and good. Like books, or puzzles, or games, or art, or music, or nature. You can learn a lot from them and enjoy them. Do you like any of those things?" the man asked, in a kind voice.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They liked many of those things. They liked to read, and to solve, and to play, and to create, and to listen, and to explore.
+
+"Then why don't you try some of those things next time you want to play? They are much better than fireworks. And much safer too. And if you ever find something unusual that you don't know what it is or what it does, don't touch it or pull it or press it. Ask an adult first. They can help you and explain it
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They slide, swing, and run. They have fun.
+
+One day, Tom sees a phone on a bench. He picks it up. He wants to watch the pictures and videos on the phone. He thinks it is cool.
+
+"Look, Mia, I found a phone!" he says. "Let's watch it!"
+
+Mia shakes her head. She knows it is not their phone. She knows they should not touch it. She thinks it is bad.
+
+"No, Tom, we can't watch it," she says. "It is not our phone. It is someone else's phone. They may need it. They may be sad if they lose it. We should put it back. We should be good."
+
+Tom frowns. He does not want to put it back. He wants to watch it. He thinks it is fun.
+
+"But I want to watch it, Mia," he says. "It is not bad. It is just a phone. No one will know. Come on, let's watch it!"
+
+Mia shakes her head again. She does not want to watch it. She wants to be good. She wants to be safe. She thinks it is wrong.
+
+"No, Tom, we can't watch it," she says. "It is wrong. It is not safe. Someone may see us. Someone may get mad. Someone may take it from us. We should put it back. We should be safe."
+
+Tom sighs. He sees that Mia is serious. He sees that she is scared. He does not want to make her sad. He does not want to make her mad. He wants to be her friend. He decides to listen to her.
+
+"Okay, Mia, you are right," he says. "We can't watch it. We should put it back. We should be good. We should be safe."
+
+He puts the phone back on the bench. He takes Mia's hand. They go back to play. They slide, swing, and run. They have fun. They are friends. They are good. They are safe.
+Lily liked to touch the fur of her cat, Max. She liked how soft and warm it was. She liked to hear him purr when she stroked his back. But sometimes, Max did not want to be touched. He would run away or hide under the bed. He would hiss or scratch if Lily tried to catch him.
+
+One day, Lily saw Max sleeping on the couch. She wanted to touch his fur and cuddle with him. She walked quietly and reached out her hand. But Max woke up and jumped off the couch. He ran to the kitchen and hid behind the fridge. Lily followed him and tried to pull him out. But Max scratched her hand and made her cry.
+
+"Ow! Max, why did you do that?" Lily said. She felt sad and frustrated. She did not understand why Max did not like her.
+
+Mom heard Lily cry and came to the kitchen. She saw the scratch on Lily's hand and the cat behind the fridge. She hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, honey. Max is not a bad cat. He just likes to have his own space sometimes. He does not like to be touched when he is sleeping or scared. You have to be gentle and patient with him. Maybe he will come to you later when he feels more relaxed."
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She understood that Max had feelings too. She decided to wait for him to come out of his hiding place. She went to the living room and played with her toys. After a while, she heard a soft meow. She looked up and saw Max sitting on the couch. He looked at her with his green eyes and tilted his head. He seemed to say, "I'm sorry, too. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Lily smiled and walked slowly to the couch. She sat next to Max and gently touched his fur. He did not run away or hiss. He rubbed his head against her hand and purred. Lily felt happy and said, "I love you, Max. You are my best friend."
+Once upon a time, there was a brown dog named Buddy. Buddy loved to play with his ball all day. One day, he lost his ball in the tall grass.

+
+One day, Lily had a new pencil with a pretty flower on it. She was very happy and wanted to draw with it. She put it on her desk and went to get some paper.

+
+She ran to Tom and tried to get her pencil back. But Tom was bigger and stronger. He pushed her away and threw the pencil on the floor. He said, "You are stupid and ugly. You don't deserve this pencil. It is mine now." Lily started to cry. She felt very hurt and alone.
+
+But then, she heard a voice. It was her teacher, Miss Lee. She had seen what Tom did. She was very mad. She said, "Tom, you are in big trouble. You have been very rude and mean to Lily. You have to say sorry and give her back her pencil. And you have to go to the corner and think about what you did. You are ignorant. You need to learn how to respect and care for others."
+
+She took Tom by the hand and made him hurry to the corner. She picked up the broken pencil and gave it to Lily. She said, "Lily, I am so sorry that Tom hurt you. You are a smart and beautiful girl. You deserve this pencil. Here, I have another one for you. It is the same as yours, but not broken. You can keep it and draw with it. And you can sit next to me and show me your pictures. I am proud of you."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Miss Lee. She felt very happy and grateful. She said, "Thank you, Miss Lee. You are the best teacher ever. I love you."

She felt safe and loved.

+One day, they saw an old lady walking with a cane. She looked tired and cold. Ben and Mia thought it would be funny to freeze her with their power. They hid behind a bush and waited for her to come closer. Then they blew hard and made a big cloud of ice.
+
+The old lady felt a chill and shivered. She saw the ice on her coat and hat and cane. She was scared and angry. She shouted, "Who did this? Why are you so mean? You could have hurt me or made me sick!"
+
+Ben and Mia felt bad. They realized they had done something wrong. They came out of the bush and said sorry. They helped the old lady to get rid of the ice. They gave her a hug and a smile.
+
+The old lady forgave them. She said, "Thank you for being kind. You have a special power, but you must use it wisely. You can make beautiful things with ice and snow, but you must not freeze things that are alive or need to be warm. Remember, power is a gift, not a toy."
+
+Ben and Mia learned their lesson. They promised to be more careful and respectful with their power. They became friends with the old lady and helped her when she needed. They also made her a snowman and a snowflake necklace to cheer her up. They were happy and proud of their power.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big tree with many fruits. They wanted to pick the fruits, but they were too high. Tom had an idea. He said, "Let's get a ladder and climb the tree. Then we can get the fruits."
+
+Lily was scared. She said, "No, Tom. The ladder is old and weak. It might break. And the tree is too tall. We might fall. It is not safe."
+
+Tom did not listen. He said, "Don't be a baby, Lily. I am brave and strong. I can do it. You can watch me." He got the ladder and put it against the tree. He started to climb.
+
+Lily watched him. She saw him reach for a fruit. But then, the ladder snapped. Tom lost his balance and fell. He hit the ground hard. He cried out in pain.
+
+Lily ran to him. She saw him bleeding. She was very scared. She said, "Tom, Tom, are you okay? I am sorry. I should have stopped you. I should have helped you."
+
+Tom was hurt. He said, "Lily, Lily, I am sorry. I should have listened to you. I should have been careful. I was foolish and proud."
+
+Lily hugged him. She said, "It's okay, Tom. I love you. We will get help. You will be fine."
+
+They heard their mom calling them. She saw them and ran to them. She saw Tom's wound. She said, "Oh, my babies. What happened? How did you get hurt?"
+
+Lily told her what happened. She said, "Mom, it was my fault. I did not stop Tom. He wanted to pick the fruits. He climbed the ladder. But the ladder was old and weak. It broke. He fell. He is hurt."
+
+Mom said, "No, Lily. It was not your fault. It was Tom's fault. He did not listen to you. He did not think of the danger. He was reckless and stubborn."
+
+She took Tom in her arms. She said, "Tom, you were very naughty. You did not obey your sister. You did not respect the ladder. You did not care for your safety. You learned a hard lesson. You are lucky you are not worse."
+
+She carried him to the house. She said, "Lily, come with me. We will clean your brother's wound. We will bandage it. We will give him some medicine. He will be okay. But he will have a scar. He will remember his mistake."
+
+Lily followed her. She said, "Mom, I am sorry. I love Tom. I don't want him to be hurt. I don't want him to have a scar. I want him to be happy."
+
+Mom said, "I know, Lily. I love you both. You are good and kind. You are a good sister. You tried to warn Tom. You tried to help him. You did your best. You are brave and smart."
+
+She kissed them both. She said, "My children, I hope you learned something today. I hope you will always listen to each other. I hope you will always be careful. I hope you will always be happy."
+
+The end.
+Anna liked to go to the park with her mom. She liked to see the flowers, the swings, and the pigeons. The pigeons were gray and white and made funny noises. Sometimes they flew away when Anna got too close.
+
+One day, Anna saw an enormous pigeon in the park. It was bigger than a dog and had shiny feathers. Anna wanted to touch it, but her mom said no. The enormous pigeon was not friendly. It could bite or scratch. Anna was sad, but she listened to her mom.
+
+The enormous pigeon saw Anna and her mom. It was hungry and wanted some food. It flew towards them, flapping its wings. Anna and her mom were scared. They ran to a bench and covered their heads with their arms. The enormous pigeon landed on the bench and pecked at their bags. It found a sandwich and ate it. Then it flew away, looking for more food.
+
+Anna and her mom were safe, but their lunch was gone. They were hungry and sad. They decided to go home and make another sandwich. They hoped they would never see the enormous pigeon again. They also hoped the other pigeons were okay.
+Tom liked to sign. He learned many signs from his teacher and his friends. He could sign hello, thank you, hungry, and more. He was proud of his signs and wanted to show them to everyone.
+
+One day, he saw a new object in his classroom. It was big and round and shiny. It had many colors and buttons. It looked like a toy. Tom wanted to play with it. He thought it was popular. He saw other kids looking at it too.
+
+He walked to the object and touched it. It made a loud noise. Tom was scared. He signed "help" to his teacher. His teacher came and smiled. She said, "This is not a toy, Tom. This is a globe. It shows us the world. Do you want to learn about the world?"
+
+Tom nodded. He was curious. He signed "yes" to his teacher. His teacher showed him different places on the globe. She told him their names and some facts. Tom learned a lot. He liked the globe. He signed "thank you" to his teacher. His teacher said, "You're welcome, Tom. You are a good learner. And you have good signs."
+
+Tom was happy. He made a new friend. The globe was his friend. He signed "hello" to the globe. The globe did not answer, but it spun and sparkled. Tom thought it was saying hello back. He smiled and hugged the globe. He was not scared anymore. He was brave. He liked to sign. He liked to learn. He liked the new object. He thought it was popular. And he was right.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play outside and explore new things. One day, they saw a big tire in the yard. It was round and black and had a hole in the middle.
+
+"Let's play with the tire!" Lily said. "We can roll it or sit in it or make it a fort."
+
+"OK!" Ben said. "But we have to be careful. Mom said the tire is old and dirty and might have sharp things inside."
+
+They ran to the tire and started to have fun. They rolled it back and forth, they took turns sitting in it and spinning around, and they pretended it was a castle and they were the king and queen.
+
+But there was someone else who was watching them. It was Max, the nosy cat. He lived next door and he always wanted to know what Lily and Ben were doing. He was curious and sneaky and sometimes naughty. He saw the tire and thought it looked like a good place to hide and nap.
+
+When Lily and Ben were busy playing, Max crept closer and closer to the tire. He waited for a chance to jump inside and curl up. He did not care if the tire was old and dirty and might have sharp things inside. He only wanted to be cozy and warm.
+
+But he did not know that Lily and Ben had a plan. They wanted to solve a mystery. They had found a clue in the tire. It was a shiny coin with a strange picture on it. They wondered who left it there and what it meant.
+
+"Let's pretend we are detectives!" Lily said. "We can use the coin as a clue and find out where it came from."
+
+"OK!" Ben said. "But we have to be quiet and smart. Maybe someone is hiding in the tire and knows the secret."
+
+They pretended to walk away from the tire, but they were really hiding behind a bush. They watched the tire and waited for someone to come out.
+
+Max saw them leave and thought it was his chance. He jumped inside the tire and snuggled in. He was happy and sleepy and did not notice anything else.
+
+But Lily and Ben saw him. They were surprised and excited. They had found their suspect!
+
+"Look!" Lily whispered. "It's Max, the nosy cat! He must have the coin and know the secret!"
+
+"Let's catch him!" Ben whispered. "We can roll the tire and make him come out!"
+
+They ran to the tire and pushed it hard. The tire started to roll and bounce and shake. Max was scared and dizzy and angry. He meowed and hissed and scratched. He wanted to get out of the tire and run away.
+
+But Lily and Ben were faster. They stopped the tire and opened it. They grabbed Max and the coin and looked at them.
+
+"Ha!" Lily said. "We solved the mystery! You are the one who left the coin in the tire!"
+
+"Why?" Ben said. "What does it mean?"
+
+Max did not answer. He was too mad and ashamed. He had found the coin in the trash and liked it because it was shiny. He had hidden it in the tire and forgot about it. He did not know it was a clue or a secret. He only wanted to nap.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for Max. They knew he was not a bad cat, just a nosy one. They decided to share the coin and the tire with him. They said they were sorry for scaring him and making him dizzy. They said they wanted to be his friends.
+
+Max was happy and grateful. He said he was sorry for being nosy and sneaky and naughty. He said he wanted to be their friend too.
+
+They hugged and smiled and played together. They had fun with the coin and the tire and the mystery. They learned to be kind and share and solve problems. They were happy and proud and smart.
+Lily and Ben are friends who live next door to each other. They like to play outside on the lawn, where they can run, jump, and roll. Sometimes they see other kids who live in big houses with big lawns. They wonder what it is like to have so much space and so many toys.
+
+One day, they notice a new family moving in across the street. They have a big truck with many boxes and bags. They also have a big dog and a big bike. Lily and Ben are curious and want to say hello.
+
+They walk across the street and see a boy who is about their age. He is wearing a nice shirt and pants and has a shiny watch. He is sitting on the bike and looking bored.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily and this is Ben. We live next door. What's your name?" Lily says.
+
+The boy looks at them and says, "I'm Max. I'm rich. You're not."
+
+Lily and Ben are surprised and hurt by his words. They don't know what rich means, but they think it is not nice.
+
+"Why do you say that? We're nice. We want to be your friends." Ben says.
+
+Max shrugs and says, "I don't need friends. I have everything I want. You have nothing. You're poor."
+
+Lily and Ben feel sad and angry. They don't like Max. They think he is mean and rude.
+
+They turn around and walk back to their lawn. They decide to ignore Max and play with each other. They have fun and laugh. They don't need to be rich. They have each other. They are happy.
+Tom was a little boy who liked to ask many questions. He wanted to learn about everything. He asked his mom, his dad, his sister, his teacher, and his friends. Sometimes they answered him, sometimes they said they did not know, and sometimes they said he asked too much.
+
+One day, Tom found a big book in his dad's office. It had many words and pictures. Tom thought it looked interesting. He opened the book and tried to read it. He did not understand most of the words, but he liked the pictures. He saw animals, plants, stars, and people. He wondered what they were and what they did.
+
+He took the book to his dad and asked him to read it to him. His dad smiled and said, "This is a book of wisdom, Tom. It tells stories and facts about the world and how it works. It is a very old and special book. It belongs to our family. My dad gave it to me, and his dad gave it to him, and so on. Someday, I will give it to you, and you will give it to your child."
+
+Tom felt happy and curious. He asked his dad to read him a story from the book. His dad agreed and picked a story about a lion and a mouse. He read it to Tom and explained what it meant. Tom listened and learned. He liked the story and the book. He thanked his dad and hugged him. He said, "I love you, dad. And I love this book of wisdom. It is very interesting. And I am glad it belongs to us."
+Lily was a little girl who loved her cat, Mimi. Mimi was black and white and had soft fur. Lily liked to play with Mimi and give her hugs and kisses. But sometimes Mimi did not like to be hugged and kissed. She would hiss and scratch and run away.
+
+One day, Lily was playing with Mimi in the garden. She saw a butterfly and wanted to catch it. She ran after the butterfly and Mimi ran after her. The butterfly flew over a fence and Lily followed it. Mimi followed Lily. But on the other side of the fence, there was a big dog. The dog saw Mimi and barked loudly. Mimi was scared and ran back to the fence. But the dog was faster and bit Mimi's paw. Mimi cried out in pain and Lily heard her.
+
+Lily ran back to the fence and saw Mimi and the dog. She was scared too, but she loved Mimi. She shouted at the dog, "Go away, bad dog! Leave Mimi alone!" The dog was surprised and let go of Mimi's paw. Mimi ran to Lily and Lily picked her up. She hugged her and said, "It's okay, Mimi. I'm here. I'll take care of you." She looked at Mimi's paw and saw blood. She felt sad and sorry for Mimi.
+
+Lily carried Mimi back to her house. She found a cloth and some water. She wiped Mimi's paw gently with the cloth and water. She said, "This will make you feel better, Mimi. I'm sorry you got hurt. You are a brave cat." Mimi purred and licked Lily's face. She said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good girl. You saved me from the dog. You are a brave girl." Lily smiled and kissed Mimi's head. She said, "You're welcome, Mimi. You are my best friend. I love you." Mimi snuggled with Lily and they were both quiet and happy.
+Lisa liked to play with balloons. She liked to blow them up and tie them with strings. She liked to make them different colors and shapes. She liked to see them float in the air.
+
+One day, Lisa got a very fancy balloon. It was big and shiny and had stars on it. Lisa loved it very much. She wanted to keep it forever. She did not want to share it with anyone.
+
+She took the balloon to her room and tied it to her bed. She looked at it and smiled. She felt very happy. She did not notice that her brother Tom was watching her.
+
+Tom liked balloons too. He wanted to play with Lisa's fancy balloon. He waited until Lisa went to the bathroom. Then he sneaked into her room and grabbed the balloon. He pulled the string hard. He wanted to take it to his room.
+
+But he pulled too hard. The string broke. The balloon flew away. It went up and up and up. It hit the ceiling. It popped. It made a loud noise. It scared Tom. He dropped the string and ran away.
+
+Lisa heard the noise. She ran back to her room. She saw the string on the floor. She saw the pieces of the balloon on the ceiling. She felt very sad. She cried.
+
+Tom felt very sorry. He knew he did a bad thing. He went to Lisa and hugged her. He said he was sorry. He said he wanted to play with her balloon. He said he did not mean to break it.

+
+A man sees the dog and Anna and Ben. He shouts at the dog. The dog runs away. The man calls for help. He takes Anna and Ben to his car. He drives them to the hospital. The hospital is a place where people heal.
+
+At the hospital, the doctor looks at Anna and Ben. He says they have bad wounds. He says they need stitches and medicine. He says they have to stay in the hospital for a long time. Anna and Ben are sad. They miss the park. They miss their home. They miss their mom and dad.
+
+The doctor says the dog was sick. He says the dog had a bad thing in its blood. He says Anna and Ben have the bad thing too. He says they need more medicine and tests. He says they may not heal. He says they may die. Anna and Ben are very scared. They hug each other. They cry. They wish the dog never came to the park. They wish they never played in the park. They wish they stayed home. The park is not a pretty place anymore. The park is a bad place. The end.
+Sam liked to listen to the birds in the birdcage. He liked their songs and colors. He wanted to play with them, but Mom said no. She said they were not toys, they were pets. She said they needed to stay in the cage, or they would fly away.
+
+One day, when Mom was not home, Sam had an idea. He took a chair and climbed on it. He reached for the birdcage and opened the door. He put his hand inside and grabbed a bird. The bird was soft and warm, but it did not like Sam. It bit his finger and made a loud noise. Sam was angry and scared. He squeezed the bird hard, very hard.
+
+The bird stopped moving and making noise. Sam looked at it and saw blood on his hand. He realized he had hurt the bird. He felt bad and sorry. He wanted to put the bird back in the cage, but it was too late. The other birds saw what Sam did and flew out of the cage. They flew out of the window and into the sky. They were free, but they were also scared and sad.
+
+Sam started to cry. He dropped the bird on the floor and ran to his room. He hid under his bed and waited for Mom to come back. He knew he had done something wrong. He knew Mom would be angry and sad too. He wished he had listened to Mom and left the birds alone. He wished he could say sorry to the birds and to Mom. But he could not. He had made a big mistake. He had lost the birds and Mom's trust. He had a hard lesson to learn.
+Ben and Mia were on a big ship with their mom and dad. They were going to see their grandma in another land. But the ship was very noisy and shaky. Ben and Mia did not like it. They felt sick and sad.
+
+One day, the ship hit a big storm. The wind blew hard and the waves were high. The ship leaned to one side and then to the other. Ben and Mia were scared. They held their mom and dad's hands. They prayed for the storm to stop.

+Tom was a boy who liked to examine things. He liked to look at them, touch them, smell them, and sometimes taste them. He wanted to know everything about them.
+
+One day, he went to the farm with his mom and dad. He saw many animals there, like cows, pigs, chickens, and sheep. He wanted to examine them all, but his mom and dad said he had to be careful and gentle.
+
+He saw a sheep that was white and fluffy. He went closer to it and touched its wool. It felt soft and warm. He smelled it and it smelled like grass and dirt. He wondered how it tasted. He opened his mouth and bit a little piece of wool.
+
+The sheep made a loud noise and ran away. Tom spat out the wool. It tasted bad and hairy. He did not like it at all. He made a face and said, "Yuck!"
+
+His mom and dad saw what he did and came to him. They were not happy. They told him he should not bite the sheep. They said the sheep was not food, but a friend. They said the wool was for making clothes, not for eating.
+
+Tom felt sorry and said he was sorry. He learned that not everything he examined was delicious. He decided to only taste things that his mom and dad gave him. He hoped the sheep was not angry with him. He wanted to be friends with the sheep and the other animals. He said he would be more careful and gentle next time.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys, read books and eat ice cream. One day, they went to the park with their moms. They saw a big truck with a sign that said "Ice Cream". They ran to the truck and asked for ice cream.
+

+
+Lily and Ben reached out their hands and touched Rex. He wagged his tail and licked their faces.
+
+"He is so soft and warm!" Lily said.
+
+"He is so cute and funny!" Ben said.
+
+They laughed and played with Rex. They forgot about their ice cream. Their cones started to melt. The ice cream dripped on the ground.
+
+Rex smelled the ice cream. He liked ice cream. He wanted some. He jumped and grabbed Lily's cone. He bit it and ate it. Lily screamed.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Lily said.
+
+She was angry and sad. She loved her ice cream. She wanted it back. She cried.

+Rex did not understand. He thought he was good. He liked Lily. He wanted to make her happy. He licked her face.

+
+She pushed Rex away. Rex felt hurt. He whimpered.
+
+The lady saw what happened. She was sorry.
+
+"Oh, I'm so sorry. Rex didn't mean to. He just loves ice cream. Here, I'll buy you another one," she said.
+
+She took some money and went to the truck. She came back with a new cone for Lily.
+
+"Here you go, sweetie. I hope this makes you feel better," she said.
+
+She gave Lily the cone. Lily took it. She looked at it. She did not want it. She threw it on the ground.
+
+"I don't want it! I hate ice cream! I hate dogs! I hate you!" she said.
+
+She ran to her mom and hugged her. She sobbed.
+
+The lady was shocked. She did not know what to say. She felt bad.
+
+"Come on, Rex. Let's go," she said.
+
+She took Rex and left. Rex looked back at Lily. He was sad. He wanted to be her friend. He wanted to heal her hurt. He did not know how. He sighed.
+Lily and Ben are playing with blocks in the living room. They like to build towers and houses and cars. Lily is very smart and can make many shapes with the blocks. Ben is not so smart and sometimes knocks down Lily's blocks by accident.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Lily says. "You are ruining my tower. It is very tall and pretty. You are not careful."
+
+"Sorry, Lily," Ben says. "I don't mean to. I just want to play with you. Can I help you make your tower?"
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She likes Ben, but she is also proud of her tower. She decides to give Ben a chance.
+
+"Okay, Ben," she says. "You can help me, but you have to be gentle and listen to me. I will tell you where to put the blocks."
+
+Ben nods and smiles. He is happy that Lily lets him play with her. He tries to follow her instructions and be gentle with the blocks.
+
+They work together for a while and make the tower even taller and prettier. They are having fun and talking to each other.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud noise. It is their dog, Spot, who has run into the living room. Spot is big and furry and likes to play, but he does not know about the blocks. He sees the tower and thinks it is a toy. He jumps on it and knocks it down with his paws and his tail.
+
+Lily and Ben gasp and cry. They see their tower fall and break into pieces. They are very sad and angry.
+
+"Spot, no!" Lily shouts. "Bad dog! You broke our tower. We worked hard on it. Go away!"
+
+Spot does not understand. He thinks Lily and Ben are playing with him. He wags his tail and barks. He tries to lick their faces.
+
+Lily and Ben push him away. They are not in the mood to play with him. They look at their broken tower and feel like giving up.
+
+But then, they see something. Some of the blocks are still together. They have not fallen apart. They are still in the shape of a house.
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They see that their tower is not completely ruined. They still have something to play with.
+
+"Look, Ben," Lily says. "We still have a house. It is not as tall as our tower, but it is still nice. We can play with it."
+
+Ben nods and agrees. He likes the house. He thinks it is cozy and cute.
+
+They pick up the house and move it to another spot. They wipe the dust and the dog hair from the blocks. They add some more blocks to make it bigger and better.
+
+They forget about their anger and their sadness. They start to play with the house. They pretend that they live in it and that Spot is their pet. They have fun and laugh.
+
+They are smart and they are friends. They know how to make the best of a bad situation. They know how to play and how to share. They are happy.
+Ben and Mia like to play with bricks. They have many bricks of different colors and shapes. They can build towers, houses, cars and animals with bricks. Sometimes they have a contest to see who can build the highest tower.
+
+One day, they are building towers in the living room. Ben has a red brick, a blue brick, a yellow brick and a green brick. He puts them on top of each other. Mia has a pink brick, a purple brick, a white brick and a black brick. She puts them on top of each other too. They both want to add one more brick to their towers.
+
+Ben sees a big orange brick on the shelf. He thinks it will make his tower very tall and strong. He stands on his toes and tries to reach the orange brick. But he is too short. He jumps and stretches his arm, but he still cannot reach the brick. He feels angry and frustrated.
+
+Mia sees a small brown brick on the table. She thinks it will make her tower very pretty and cute. She walks to the table and tries to reach the brown brick. But she is clumsy. She trips over a toy and falls on the floor. She drops her tower and it breaks into pieces. She feels sad and hurt.
+
+Ben and Mia look at each other. They see their broken towers and their unhappy faces. They feel sorry for each other. They decide to stop the contest and help each other. They hug and say sorry. They pick up the bricks and start to build a new tower together. They use all the colors and shapes they have. They make the tower very big and beautiful. They are happy and proud. They have fun with bricks.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the park. They had a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. But their favorite thing was the cave. The cave was a big hole under a tree. They could crawl inside and pretend they were explorers.
+
+One day, they brought a flashlight and some snacks to the cave. They wanted to see what was inside. They crawled in and turned on the flashlight. They saw some rocks, some bugs, and some shiny things. They were very happy.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was a dog. The dog was big and black and had sharp teeth. It smelled their snacks and wanted to eat them. It ran to the cave and barked. Ben and Lily were scared. They dropped their flashlight and their snacks and ran out of the cave.
+
+The dog followed them and ate their snacks. It also broke their flashlight. Ben and Lily were sad. Their cave adventure was spoiled. They ran to their mom and told her what happened. She hugged them and said it was okay. She said they could get a new flashlight and more snacks. She said they were brilliant for being brave and running away from the dog. She said they could play in the cave another day. Ben and Lily smiled. They still liked the cave. They hoped the dog would not come back.
+Lily liked to grow flowers in her garden. She had many seeds and pots and soil. She watered them every day and watched them grow. She liked the colors and smells of the flowers.
+
+One day, she found a book in her garden. It was big and old and had many pages. She opened the book and saw pictures of flowers she did not know. They were unknown flowers. They had strange shapes and colors and names. She wanted to grow them too.
+
+She took the book to her mom and asked her what the flowers were. Her mom looked at the book and said it was a very special book. It was a magic book. The flowers in the book were not real. They only grew in the book.
+
+Lily was curious and excited. She asked her mom how the magic book worked. Her mom said she had to read the words on the pages and imagine the flowers in her mind. Then, the flowers would grow in the book and she could see them.

+Lily tried to read the words, but they were too hard for her. She only knew some letters and sounds. She asked her mom to help her read the words. Her mom smiled and said she would. She said they could read the book together and grow the unknown flowers. Lily was happy and hugged her mom. She loved to grow flowers, even if they were only in a book.
+Sara loved books. She had many books in her bookcase. She liked to look at the pictures and listen to the stories. Sometimes she tried to read the words by herself.
+
+One day, Sara saw a new book on the top shelf of her bookcase. It had a shiny cover and a big dragon on it. Sara wanted to see the book. She climbed on a chair and reached for the book. But the chair was wobbly and the book was heavy. Sara lost her balance and fell down. The book and some other books fell on her. Sara was scared and hurt. She cried for help.
+
+Mom heard Sara's cry and ran to her room. She saw Sara under the books and the chair. She felt sorry for Sara. She lifted the books and the chair and hugged Sara. She checked if Sara was okay. She had some bruises and scratches, but nothing serious. Mom kissed Sara and said, "You are brave, Sara. But you should not climb on the bookcase. It is dangerous. You could get hurt or break something. If you want a book, you can ask me or Dad. We will get it for you. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I wanted to see the new book. It looked fun. But I was silly and careless. I won't climb on the bookcase again. I promise."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you promise, Sara. I love you. And I love books too. How about we read the new book together? It is a story about a dragon and a princess. Do you want to hear it?"
+
+Sara nodded and said, "Yes, please, Mom. Thank you. I love you too. And I love stories."
+
+Mom and Sara sat on the bed and opened the new book. They looked at the pictures and read the words. They had a good time. Sara forgot about her pain and fear. She felt happy and safe. She learned a lesson and kept her promise.

+Lily and Max were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. Lily saw a caterpillar on a leaf. It was green and fuzzy. She wanted to pick it up and show Max.
+
+"Look, Max, I found a caterpillar!" she said. "It is so impressive. It has many legs and a funny face."
+
+Max came over and looked at the caterpillar. He did not think it was impressive. He thought it was boring and ugly. He wanted to find something else.
+
+"That is not impressive, Lily. That is just a caterpillar. It is not a bug. It is not a flower. It is nothing. Let's choose something else to play with." he said.
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She liked the caterpillar. She thought it was special and cute. She did not want to choose something else. She wanted to keep the caterpillar.
+
+"No, Max. I like the caterpillar. It is my friend. It is not nothing. It is something. You are mean. Go away." she said.
+
+Max felt mad and hurt. He did not like the caterpillar. He thought it was silly and gross. He did not want to play with Lily. He wanted to play with something else.
+
+"Fine, Lily. I don't want to play with you. You are silly. You can keep your caterpillar. I will find something else. Bye." he said.
+
+He walked away and left Lily alone with the caterpillar. Lily hugged the caterpillar and whispered to it.
+
+"Don't worry, caterpillar. I like you. You are impressive. You are my friend." she said.
+
+The caterpillar wiggled and tickled her hand. It seemed to like her too. Lily smiled and felt happy. She did not need Max. She had the caterpillar.

+
+She wanted to be friends with the fox, so she said hello and smiled. The fox looked at her with big eyes and tilted its head. It did not understand what she was saying. It was scared of her. It ran away into the trees.
+
+Lila was sad. She did not want to scare the fox. She wanted to play with it. She wondered why the fox did not understand her. She asked her mom, who was watching her from a distance.
+
+Her mom explained that the fox was a wild animal, and that it spoke a different language than her. She said that the fox was not used to people, and that it was better to leave it alone. She said that the fox had its own family and friends in the woods, and that it was happy there.
+
+Lila nodded. She understood what her mom said. She still thought the fox was incredible, but she respected its space. She decided to draw a picture of the fox instead. She hoped to see it again someday, from afar.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play together. One day, they find a big pair of scissors in the bathroom. They think it is a toy. They want to give each other a haircut.

+One day, he saw a girl with a big black hat. He thought the hat was cool and shiny. He wanted to have it for himself. He ran to the girl and grabbed the hat from her head. He ran away with the hat, laughing.
+
+But the girl was not happy. She was very sad and angry. She cried and told her mom what Tom did. Her mom was a witch. She did not like it when someone took her daughter's hat. She cast a spell on Tom and turned him into a black cat.
+
+Tom did not know what happened. He felt funny and small. He looked at himself and saw fur and whiskers. He tried to talk, but he only meowed. He was scared and confused.
+
+He ran back to the girl and tried to give her the hat. He hoped she would forgive him and change him back. But the girl did not want the hat anymore. She was still mad at Tom. She said, "You are a bad boy who took my hat. Now you are a bad cat who can never be a boy again. Go away and leave me alone." She kicked Tom away and went home with her mom.

+Lily and Ben love to play in the sand. They make castles and tunnels and bridges. One day, they see something shiny in the water. They run to the edge and look. It is a big octopus!
+
+The octopus has eight arms and many colors. It waves at them and smiles. Lily and Ben are not scared. They wave back and smile too. They want to be friends with the octopus.

+
+They get hungry and decide to have a picnic. Lily and Ben have sandwiches and juice. Ollie has fish and seawater. He offers them some fish, but they say no thank you. They say fish is too spicy for them. Ollie says he likes spicy food. He says fish makes him strong and smart.

+
+"No, it is mine!" Sara says. She holds the purple leaf tight. She does not want to share.
+
+They pull and tug on the purple leaf. They are angry and sad. They forget to have fun.
+
+Mom sees them fighting. She comes over and asks what is wrong. They tell her about the purple leaf.
+
+Mom says, "The purple leaf is not yours or mine. It belongs to the tree. The tree gave it to us to enjoy, not to fight over. Why don't you put it back in the pile and find another one?"
+
+Sara and Ben think about what Mom says. They feel sorry for being mean. They say sorry to each other and hug.
+
+They put the purple leaf back in the pile. They find another leaf that is yellow and red. They think it is pretty too. They share it and smile.
+
+They jump in the leaves and laugh again. They are happy and kind.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to travel with their mom and dad. They went to many places and saw many things. They always stayed in a hotel when they traveled. A hotel was a big house with many rooms and beds.
+
+One day, they went to a new place by the sea. They were very excited to see the water and the sand. They packed their bags and got in the car. Mom and dad said they had a surprise for them. They did not mention what it was.
+
+They drove for a long time and then they arrived at the hotel. It was very big and shiny. Mom and dad checked in and got the key. They said they had a special room for them. They took the elevator and went to the top floor.
+
+They opened the door and Lily and Ben gasped. The room was huge and beautiful. It had a big bed, a big sofa, a big TV, and a big window. The window showed the sea and the beach. It was the best room they ever saw.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the window and looked outside. They saw people swimming, playing, and having fun. They wanted to go too. They asked mom and dad if they could go to the beach. Mom and dad said yes, but first they had to unpack their bags and change their clothes.
+
+Lily and Ben agreed and went to their bags. They opened them and looked for their swimsuits. But they could not find them. They searched and searched, but they were not there. They realized they forgot to pack them. They felt very sad and silly.
+
+They told mom and dad what happened. Mom and dad looked at them and smiled. They said it was okay. They said they had a surprise for them. They opened a closet and took out two new swimsuits.

+
+Lily and Ben were very happy and grateful. They hugged mom and dad and thanked them. They put on their new swimsuits and ran to the beach. They had a lot of fun in the water and the sand.

+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees them fighting over the car. She is not happy. She says, "Stop! You are not being nice. You need to share your toys. If you can't share, I will remove the car and put it away."
+
+Sara and Ben do not want to lose the car. They look at each other. They do not know what to do. Mom says, "I will be the judge. You each have to tell me why you want the car. Then I will decide who gets it."
+
+Sara says, "I want the car because it is blue. Blue is my favorite color. And it is fast. I like to make it zoom around the room." Ben says, "I want the car because it is shiny. Shiny things are pretty. And it is healthy. It has a sticker that says it is good for the earth."
+
+Mom listens to them. She thinks for a moment. She says, "You both have good reasons to want the car. But you also have other toys that you can play with. Why don't you take turns with the car? You can each have it for five minutes. Then you can switch. That way, you can both enjoy it and be fair."
+
+Sara and Ben think about it. They agree to try it. They say sorry to each other. They hug and smile. Mom is proud of them. She says, "That's better. Now you are being kind and smart. You can keep the car if you share it. But if you fight again, I will remove it. Do you understand?" Sara and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, Mom. Thank you." They start to play with the car.

+One day, Anna's mom took her to a real veterinarian clinic. She was very excited. She saw many different animals there. Some were big, some were small, some were furry, some were scaly. She wanted to pet them all, but her mom told her to be careful and ask first.
+
+Anna saw a big poster on the wall. It was a contest. It said, "Draw your favorite animal and win a prize!" Anna loved to draw. She asked her mom for a paper and a crayon. She thought hard. What was her favorite animal? She decided to draw a giraffe. She liked how tall and spotted they were.
+
+She drew a big giraffe with a long neck and yellow and brown spots. She gave it a smile and a flower in its mouth. She wrote her name and age on the paper. She was very proud of her drawing. She gave it to the veterinarian. He smiled and said, "Wow, what a cheerful giraffe! You did a great job, Anna. You are very talented."
+
+He put her drawing on the wall with the other entries. He told her to come back next week to see who won the prize. Anna was very happy. She thanked the veterinarian and hugged her mom.

+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and Anna. She saw a big slide and wanted to go on it. She left Anna on a bench and ran to the slide. She had fun sliding down and up again. She did not see the boy who took Anna from the bench.
+
+The boy was spoiled. He wanted everything he saw. He did not care if it belonged to someone else. He saw Anna and thought she was nice. He grabbed her and ran away. He did not see Lily's mom who saw him.
+
+Lily's mom was angry. She ran after the boy and shouted at him. She told him to give Anna back to Lily. The boy was scared. He threw Anna on the ground and ran away. He did not see the dog who saw Anna.
+
+The dog was hungry. He smelled Anna and thought she was food. He bit Anna and tore her apart. He did not care if she was a doll. He ate her hair, her dress, and her smile. He left only her skeleton on the ground.
+
+Lily came back from the slide and looked for Anna. She saw her skeleton on the ground and cried. She did not understand what happened. She picked up her skeleton and hugged it.

+Ben was lonely. He had no friends to play with. He liked to ride his bicycle, but it was not fun alone. He wished he had someone to share his bicycle with.
+
+One day, he saw a new girl in his street. She had a bicycle too. It was pink and shiny. Ben wanted to talk to her, but he was shy. He did not know her name. He watched her from his window.
+
+The next day, he saw her again. She was riding her bicycle in circles. She looked bored. Ben decided to be brave. He took his bicycle and went outside. He rode up to her and said, "Hi, I'm Ben. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The girl smiled. She said, "Hi, I'm Mia. Yes, I want to be your friend. I'm new here. I don't know anyone."
+
+Ben was happy. He said, "Me too. I don't have any friends. Do you want to ride with me? We can go to the park. It's fun there."
+
+Mia nodded. She said, "Yes, let's go. That sounds exciting."
+
+Ben and Mia rode their bicycles together. They had a lot of fun. They went down the slides, swung on the swings, and chased the ducks. They laughed and talked. They were not lonely anymore. They had found a new friend.
+Lila liked to snap the peas from the garden. She would pull the green pods and hear a pop. Then she would open them and see the round peas inside. She would eat some and save some for Mama.
+
+One day, she saw a new pod that was not green. It was yellow and had red spots. It looked pretty and delicate. Lila wondered how it would taste. She snapped it and opened it. But instead of peas, there were tiny seeds and a lot of juice.
+
+Lila put the pod in her mouth and bit it. She felt a sharp pain and a hot taste. She spit it out and cried. It was not a pea pod, it was a chili pepper. It burned her tongue and made her eyes water.
+
+Mama heard her cry and came to see. She saw the chili pepper and understood. She hugged Lila and gave her some water and honey. She told her that chili peppers are not for eating, they are for cooking. She said they make the food spicy and some people like that.
+
+Lila learned a new word: spicy. She decided she did not like spicy. She liked sweet and salty and sour. She liked peas and carrots and apples and cheese. She did not like chili peppers. She never snapped them again.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys on the porch. Mama says they have to sort their toys before they go inside. Sara likes to sort her toys by color. Ben likes to sort his toys by shape.
+
+One day, they have a lot of toys on the porch. Sara says, "Let's sort our toys together. It will be faster and more fun." Ben says, "No, I want to sort my toys by myself. You sort your toys your way, and I sort my toys my way." Sara says, "But that's not nice. We should share and help each other." Ben says, "I don't care. Go away."
+
+Sara is sad. She goes to the other side of the porch and sorts her toys by color. She makes a bright rainbow with her toys. She smiles and sings a song. Ben stays on his side of the porch and sorts his toys by shape. He makes a big pile with his toys. He frowns and grumbles.
+
+Suddenly, a big dog comes to the porch. He sees the toys and thinks they are food. He runs to the porch and starts to bite and chew the toys. Sara screams and runs inside. She calls Mama. Ben is scared. He tries to save his toys, but the dog is too fast and strong. He bites Ben's hand and makes it bleed. Ben cries and runs inside. He calls Mama.
+
+Mama comes to the porch and sees the mess. She sees the dog and shooes him away. She sees Sara's rainbow and Ben's pile. She sees Sara's smile and Ben's tears. She hugs Sara and says, "You did a good job sorting your toys by color. They look so bright and pretty. I'm proud of you." She hugs Ben and says, "You did a bad job sorting your toys by shape. They look so messy and ugly. I'm sorry for you." She takes Ben to the doctor and Sara to the park.
+
+The moral of the story is: It is better to share and help than to be selfish and mean.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big yellow ball on the grass. They run to the ball and try to kick it.
+
+"Ow!" Lily says. "This ball is rough. It hurts my foot."
+
+Ben tries to kick the ball too. He also says "Ow!" The ball is not soft like their other balls. It is hard and bumpy.
+
+They look at the ball more closely. They see that it is not a ball at all. It is a lemon. Someone left a lemon on the grass.
+
+"Who would do that?" Ben asks. "That is not nice. That is silly."
+
+Lily frowns. She does not like silly things. She likes fun things. She says, "Let's find a real ball. A real ball is fun. A lemon is not fun."
+
+Ben nods. He agrees with Lily. He does not like lemons. He likes balls. He says, "Yes, let's find a real ball. A real ball is smooth. A lemon is rough."
+
+They leave the lemon on the grass. They look for a real ball. They find a red ball near the slide. They kick the red ball and laugh. They have fun with the red ball. They forget about the lemon. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben love to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite ones are the soft animals. They have a bear, a bunny, a cat, and a dog. They like to hug them and make them talk.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben decided to make a surprise for their mom. They wanted to give her their soft animals as a gift. They found some paper and tape in the closet. They tried to wrap their soft animals with the paper and tape. It was hard, but they did their best.
+
+They put their wrapped soft animals in a big box. They carried the box to the living room. They saw their mom sitting on the couch. They shouted, "Surprise, mom! We have a gift for you!"
+
+Their mom smiled and hugged them. She opened the box and saw the wrapped soft animals. She thanked them and said, "What a wonderful gift! You are so sweet and thoughtful!"
+
+She unwrapped the soft animals and held them in her arms. She said, "Look, we have a huge group of soft animals! They are all so cute and cozy!"
+
+Lily and Ben were happy. They joined their mom and cuddled with the soft animals. They felt warm and loved.
+Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park. They hear the birds sing and the dogs bark. They see the swings and the slide. They run to have fun.
+
+Lily and Ben take turns on the swing. They push each other higher and higher. They feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their face. They laugh and shout. They are happy.
+
+Then they go to the slide. Lily and Ben climb up the ladder. They sit on the top. They look down. The slide is long and curvy. They are excited.
+
+Lily goes first. She slides down fast. She feels a tickle in her tummy. She says "Whee!" Ben goes next. He slides down faster. He feels a flip in his tummy. He says "Wow!"
+
+Lily and Ben reach the bottom. They stand up. They are dizzy. They hold each other's hand. They giggle. They are silly.
+
+Lily and Ben have fun in the park. They love to play. They are best friends.
+Anna and Ben were having lunch with their mom. They liked to eat cheese sandwiches and apple juice. Mom gave them each a napkin to wipe their mouths. Anna put her napkin on her lap. Ben threw his napkin on the floor.
+
+"Ben, pick up your napkin," Mom said. "You need to be tidy and polite."
+
+"I don't want to," Ben said. "It's boring."
+
+Mom sighed and finished her salad. She told Anna and Ben to go play in the living room while she cleaned the kitchen. Anna and Ben ran to the living room. They saw a big box of crayons and a stack of paper.
+
+"Let's draw pictures," Anna said. She took a crayon and a paper and started to draw a flower.
+
+"Let's draw monsters," Ben said. He took a crayon and a paper and started to draw a scary face.
+
+Anna and Ben drew for a while. They had fun making different shapes and colors. But Ben got bored. He wanted to do something else. He looked around the living room. He saw Mom's purse on the couch. He had an idea.
+
+"Anna, look what I found," Ben said. He grabbed Mom's purse and opened it. He saw a lot of things inside. He saw a wallet, a phone, a key, a lipstick, and a perfume.
+
+"What are you doing?" Anna asked. She was worried. She knew Mom did not like them to touch her purse.
+
+"Shh, don't tell Mom," Ben said. He took out the perfume and sprayed it in the air. It smelled nice. He took out the lipstick and put it on his lips. It was red. He took out the key and pretended to drive a car. He was having fun.
+
+Anna did not think it was fun. She thought it was naughty. She wanted to stop Ben. But she did not know how. She wished Mom would come back.
+
+Ben saw something else in the purse. He saw a chocolate bar. He loved chocolate. He took out the chocolate bar and unwrapped it. He was about to take a bite when he noticed something on it. It was a napkin. It was his napkin. The one he threw on the floor. The one that was dirty and disgusting.
+
+"Yuck!" Ben said. He dropped the chocolate bar and the napkin. He felt sick. He wanted to spit out the lipstick. He wanted to wash off the perfume. He wanted to hide the key. He wanted to say sorry to Mom.
+
+But it was too late. Mom came back. She saw the mess. She saw the purse. She saw the chocolate bar and the napkin. She saw Ben's face. She was angry.
+
+"Ben, what have you done?" Mom said. "You are in big trouble."
+
+Anna looked at Ben. She felt sorry for him. But she also felt glad. She knew he learned a lesson. She hoped he would not do it again. She hoped he would listen to Mom. She hoped he would pick up his napkin.
+Anna and Ben went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks and swans. Anna liked the swans. They had long necks and white feathers. Ben liked the ducks. They had yellow beaks and brown feathers.
+
+Mom gave Anna and Ben some bread to feed the animals. Anna and Ben broke the bread into small pieces and threw them into the water. The ducks and swans came closer and ate the bread. They made noises like quack and honk. Anna and Ben laughed and clapped.
+
+Then Mom said it was time to go. She took Anna and Ben to a small shop near the pond. The shop had ice cream and candy. Mom said they could have a treat for being good. Anna and Ben were happy. They chose their favorite flavors of ice cream. Anna picked strawberry and Ben picked chocolate. Mom paid the shopkeeper some coins and thanked him. The shopkeeper smiled and gave them spoons.
+
+Anna and Ben licked their ice cream. It was cold and yummy. They shared some with Mom. Mom said it was delicious. They walked back to the car, holding hands and enjoying their treat. They saw the ducks and swans again. They waved goodbye to them. The ducks and swans waved back with their wings. Anna and Ben said they had a fun day at the park. Mom said she loved them very much.
+One day, Tom and Lily went to the park with their mom. They saw a big parade with many people and flags and drums. They liked the parade very much. They wanted to join the parade and march with the people.
+
+They asked their mom if they could march with the parade. Their mom said yes, but they had to stay close to her and hold her hand. Tom and Lily were very happy. They ran to the parade and found a spot to march. They saw a nurse in the parade. She was wearing a white hat and a blue dress. She was smiling and waving. She looked amazing.
+
+Tom and Lily waved to the nurse. The nurse waved back. She came closer to them and said hello. She asked them if they liked the parade. Tom and Lily said yes, they liked it very much. They said they wanted to be like her when they grew up. The nurse said that was very nice. She said she liked to help people who were sick or hurt. She said she was marching to celebrate the people who helped others.
+
+Tom and Lily thought the nurse was very kind and brave. They said they wanted to help people too. The nurse said they could start by being nice to their friends and family. She gave them each a sticker with a heart on it. She said it was a symbol of love and care. She said they could wear it proudly and share it with others.
+
+Tom and Lily thanked the nurse. They put the stickers on their shirts. They felt very proud and happy. They marched with the nurse and the parade until they reached the end of the park. They said goodbye to the nurse and hugged her. They said she was amazing. The nurse said they were amazing too. She said she hoped to see them again. Tom and Lily said they hoped to see her again too. They went back to their mom and told her all about the nurse and the parade. Their mom said they had a wonderful adventure. They agreed. They said it was the best day ever.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. But sometimes they quarrel. They quarrel when they want the same toy or book. They quarrel when they do not share or take turns.
+
+One day, they find a big box. The box is wide and tall. It has many pictures on it. Lily and Ben want to play with the box. They both climb inside the box. They pretend the box is a house or a car or a boat.
+
+But soon they quarrel again. Lily wants to be the driver of the car. Ben wants to be the driver too. They pull and push each other. They shout and cry. They are not happy.
+
+Then they hear a noise. It is Max, the nosy dog. Max likes to sniff and lick everything. He sees the box. He thinks the box is a toy. He runs to the box. He jumps on the box. He bites the box.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They see Max's teeth and tongue. They hear Max's bark and growl. They forget their quarrel. They hug each other. They call for help.
+
+Mom and Dad come. They see the mess. They see the box and the dog and the kids. They are not angry. They are glad Lily and Ben are safe. They hug them too. They tell them to be nice and not quarrel. They give them a new toy and a new book. They give Max a bone.
+
+Lily and Ben say sorry to each other. They share and take turns. They play with the toy and the book. They play with Max too. They are friends again. They are happy.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play in the garden. She had a red ball, a yellow bucket and a green shovel. She liked to dig holes, fill them with water and splash with her ball. She also liked to look for bugs and flowers.
+
+One day, she found a big worm in the dirt. It was brown and long and wiggly. Lily wanted to see how long it was, so she used her shovel to measure it. She put the shovel next to the worm and counted. One inch, two inches, three inches, four inches. The worm was four inches long!
+
+Lily was very happy. She wanted to show her mom the worm. She picked it up gently and put it in her bucket. She ran to the house, calling, "Mom, mom, look what I found!"
+
+But when she got to the house, she saw that her mom was sleeping on the couch. She had a book on her lap and a blanket on her feet. She looked very tired. Lily remembered that her mom had worked all night at the hospital. She was a nurse and helped sick people.
+
+Lily did not want to wake her mom up. She knew that her mom needed to rest. She decided to wait until her mom woke up to show her the worm. She put the bucket on the floor and sat next to her mom. She took the book and looked at the pictures. They were about animals and plants. Lily liked them.
+
+She saw a picture of a bird eating a worm. She wondered if her worm was tasty. She looked at the bucket and saw that the worm was still there. It was moving slowly in the water. Lily felt sorry for the worm. She did not want the bird to eat it. She wanted to be its friend.
+
+She got up and took the bucket. She went back to the garden and found the hole where she had dug the worm. She poured the water and the worm back into the hole. She said, "Bye-bye, worm. Thank you for playing with me. I hope you have a good rest."
+
+Then she went back to the house and snuggled with her mom on the couch. She closed her eyes and had a good rest too.
+Tim and Lily liked to play in the swamp near their house. They liked to splash in the water, look for frogs and bugs, and make mud pies. But their mom always told them to be careful and not go too far, because the swamp could be dangerous.
+
+One day, they saw a big log that looked like a bridge. They wanted to cross it and see what was on the other side. They did not listen to their mom's voice in their heads. They ran to the log and started to walk on it. But the log was not a bridge. It was a crocodile!
+
+The crocodile opened its mouth and snapped at Tim and Lily. They screamed and jumped off the log. They ran back to the shore, but they were very wet and scared. The crocodile chased them, but it was too slow on land. Tim and Lily reached their house and slammed the door behind them.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw them soak and shiver. She asked them what happened. They told her about the crocodile and the log. She hugged them and said they were lucky to be alive. She said they should never go to the swamp again without her. She gave them dry clothes and hot soup. They said they were sorry and they learned their lesson. They never played in the swamp again.
+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 with their toys and act them out.
+
+"Look, my doll is a doctor and she can improve sick people," Lily said, pretending to give her doll a stethoscope. "She can listen to their hearts and give them medicine."
+
+"That's cool, but my car is faster and stronger than your doll," Ben said, zooming his car around the floor. "It can go anywhere and do anything. It has a huge button that makes it fly."
+
+"Really? Can I see?" Lily asked, curious about the button.
+
+"Sure, but you have to be careful. It's very powerful," Ben said, handing his car to Lily. "You have to press the button only once and then hold on tight."
+
+Lily took the car and looked for the button. She found it on the roof of the car and pressed it. Suddenly, the car started to make a loud noise and lifted off the ground. Lily was surprised and scared. She tried to let go of the car, but it was too late. The car flew up in the air, taking Lily with it.
+
+"Help! Help!" Lily screamed, as she soared above the couch, the table, and the lamp. "Ben, make it stop!"
+
+Ben was shocked and worried. He didn't know how to stop the car. He ran after it, trying to catch it. He shouted, "Lily, don't worry! I'll save you! Press the button again! Maybe it will make the car land!"
+
+Lily heard Ben and tried to press the button again. But she was too scared and couldn't reach it. The car kept flying higher and higher, until it hit the ceiling. Then, it bounced back and fell to the floor, with a loud crash. Lily and the car landed on a pile of pillows, luckily. Lily was shaken, but not hurt. She started to cry.
+
+Ben ran to Lily and hugged her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to scare you. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily nodded and sniffed. She said, "I'm okay, Ben. But I don't like your car. It's too fast and too strong. And the button is too huge."
+
+Ben said, "I know, Lily. I don't like it either. It's too dangerous. Let's play with something else. Something safer and nicer. Like your doll. Maybe she can improve my car."
+
+Lily smiled and wiped her tears. She said, "Okay, Ben. Let's play with my doll. She can improve anything. Even your car."
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play outside in the summer. The sun is warm and the grass is green. They have a big ball and a small bike.
+
+One day, Lily says to Tom, "I want to learn how to ride the bike. Can you help me?"
+
+Tom nods and smiles. He says, "Yes, I can help you. I learned how to ride the bike last summer. It is fun and fast. But you have to be careful and wear a helmet."
+
+Lily puts on the helmet and sits on the bike. Tom holds the bike and walks with her. He says, "You have to pedal with your feet and balance with your body. And you have to steer with your hands. Like this."
+
+He shows her how to pedal, balance and steer. Lily tries to do the same. She feels scared and excited. She says, "This is hard. I don't know if I can do it."
+
+Tom says, "You can do it. You just have to practice and be brave. I will help you. Don't give up."
+
+They practice for a long time. Lily falls down a few times, but she gets up and tries again. Tom cheers her on and gives her tips. He says, "You are doing great. You are learning how to ride the bike. You are almost there."
+
+Finally, Lily rides the bike by herself. She pedals, balances and steers. She feels happy and proud. She says, "I did it! I learned how to ride the bike. Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend."
+
+Tom says, "You are welcome, Lily. You are a good friend too. And you are a good bike rider. Let's go for a ride together. It is a beautiful summer day."
+Lily liked to jump. She jumped on her bed, on the sofa, on the grass. She jumped when she was happy, when she was bored, when she wanted to play. She jumped so much that her mom called her a little kangaroo.
+
+One day, Lily went to a party with her mom and dad. There were many kids, balloons, cakes and games. Lily was very excited. She wanted to jump with everyone. But she had to wait for her turn.
+
+Then she saw a clown. The clown had a big red nose, a funny hat and a colorful suit. He made jokes, tricks and noises. He made everyone laugh. Lily liked the clown. She wanted to jump with him.
+
+She ran to the clown and said, "Hi, clown! Can I jump with you?" The clown smiled and said, "Sure, little kangaroo! Come with me!" He took her hand and led her to a big trampoline. The trampoline was like a giant bed that bounced.
+
+Lily and the clown jumped on the trampoline. They jumped high, low, fast, slow. They jumped like frogs, like rabbits, like birds. They jumped and laughed and had fun. Lily was very happy.
+
+But then, the clown made a mistake. He jumped too hard and landed on a delicate balloon. The balloon popped with a loud bang. The clown fell off the trampoline and landed on the ground. He hurt his nose, his hat and his suit. He looked sad and silly.
+
+Lily was scared. She thought she had broken the clown. She ran to him and said, "I'm sorry, clown! Are you okay?" The clown looked at her and said, "Don't worry, little kangaroo. I'm fine. It was just a balloon. Balloons are delicate. They pop easily. But clowns are strong. They don't break easily. They just need a hug."
+
+Lily hugged the clown. The clown hugged her back. He said, "Thank you, little kangaroo. You are very kind. You made me happy. Do you want to jump with me again?" Lily nodded and said, "Yes, clown! I want to jump with you again! But not on the balloons. They are delicate. They pop easily. Let's jump on the trampoline. It's fun. It bounces easily."
+
+Lily and the clown went back to the trampoline. They jumped and laughed and had fun. They were the best jumping friends. Lily was very happy. She loved to jump. She loved the clown. She loved the party.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the sun. They run and jump and laugh. They are playful and happy.
+
+But when the sun goes down, they have to go inside. They have to wash and eat and brush. They have to sleep in their beds. They are tired and sleepy.
+
+But there is a problem. There is a mosquito in their room. It buzzes and bites and bothers. It likes to play with them, but not in a nice way. It is mean and sneaky.
+
+Sara and Ben try to ignore the mosquito. They close their eyes and hug their toys. They hope the mosquito will go away. They want to sleep and dream.
+
+But the mosquito does not go away. It waits and watches and plans. It sees a hole in the window screen. It has an idea. It flies out of the room and looks for a friend. It finds another mosquito. It tells the other mosquito to follow. It has a surprise. It is playful and wicked.
+
+Sara and Ben do not know what the mosquito is doing. They think the mosquito is gone. They start to sleep and dream. They are peaceful and calm.
+
+But then they hear a noise. They open their eyes and see a shadow. They see two mosquitoes, not one. They see the mosquitoes coming closer. They see the mosquitoes smiling. They are scared and shocked.
+
+The mosquitoes are ready to play. They are playful and cruel.
+Lily was a restless girl who liked to do things that her mom and dad told her not to do. She liked to climb on the furniture, jump on the bed, and run in the street. She thought it was fun to dare herself and see how far she could go.
+
+One day, her mom made a big pot of soup for lunch. She told Lily to stay away from the stove and not touch the soup. She said it was very hot and could burn her. Lily nodded, but she did not listen. She wanted to see how hot the soup was. She waited until her mom went to the bathroom, and then she sneaked into the kitchen. She climbed on a chair and reached for the pot handle.
+
+But the pot was too heavy and too hot for Lily. She lost her balance and pulled the pot down. The soup spilled all over her and the floor. Lily screamed in pain and fear. Her mom heard her and ran to the kitchen. She saw Lily covered in soup and crying. She quickly wrapped her in a towel and took her to the sink. She ran cold water over her skin and called for help.
+
+Lily had to go to the hospital and get bandages for her burns. She was very sorry and scared. She wished she had listened to her mom and not dared herself to touch the soup. She learned that some things are not fun, but dangerous. She decided to be more careful and obedient from then on. She also said sorry to her mom and thanked her for taking care of her. Her mom hugged her and said she loved her, but she hoped she would never do that again. Lily agreed and promised to be a good girl.
+Ben and Sam were brothers. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big tree with a black bird on top. The bird had shiny feathers and a loud voice.
+
+"I want to touch the bird," Ben said. "It is so pretty."
+
+"But the tree is too high," Sam said. "You cannot reach it."
+
+"Yes, I can," Ben said. He ran to the tree and tried to climb it. He held on to the branches and moved up. Sam watched him and felt scared.
+
+"Be careful, Ben," Sam said. "The bird might bite you."
+
+Ben did not listen. He wanted to be successful. He climbed higher and higher. He was almost near the bird. He stretched his hand to reach it.
+
+But the bird did not like Ben. It saw him coming and got angry. It opened its beak and pecked Ben's hand. Ben cried out and let go of the branch. He fell down and landed on the grass.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow," Ben said. He held his hand and sobbed. Sam ran to him and hugged him.
+
+"I told you so, Ben," Sam said. "The bird was not nice. You should have listened to me."
+
+Ben nodded. He was sorry. He learned his lesson. He did not want to touch the black bird anymore. He wanted to play with Sam instead. They went home and told their mom what happened. She kissed Ben's hand and made him feel better. She was proud of Sam for being a good brother. They had cookies and milk and read a book. They were happy.
+Lily likes to help her mom in the kitchen. She likes to stir the soup, cut the bread and set the table. She likes to make a beautiful meal for her family.
+
+When the meal is ready, Lily's mom tells her to ring the bell. Lily runs to the living room and picks up the bell. She shakes it hard and makes a loud noise. Ring, ring, ring! She calls out, "Dinner is ready!"
+
+Lily's dad and brother hear the bell and come to the kitchen. They smell the soup and see the bread and salad. They say, "Wow, what a beautiful meal! Thank you, Lily and mom!"
+
+Lily smiles and sits down with her family. They eat and talk and laugh. Lily feels happy and proud. She likes to help her mom in the kitchen. She likes to ring the bell. She likes to make a beautiful meal for her family.
+Lila likes to jog with her dad. They jog in the park and see many things. They see birds, flowers, trees and dogs. Lila likes to say hello to the dogs and pet them. She is kind to animals.
+
+One day, Lila sees a shiny stone on the ground. She stops to pick it up. It is smooth and round and sparkles in the sun. Lila thinks it is pretty and wants to keep it. She shows it to her dad and he smiles.
+
+"That is a nice stone, Lila. Where did you find it?" he asks.
+
+"I found it over there, by the bench. Can I keep it, dad?" Lila asks.
+
+"Sure, you can keep it, Lila. It is a special stone for you. But remember, you have to be careful with stones. They can be hard and hurt someone if you throw them or drop them. So, hold it gently and put it in your pocket when you jog, okay?" he says.
+
+"Okay, dad. I will be careful with my stone. Thank you, dad. I love you," Lila says.
+
+"I love you too, Lila. Now, let's jog some more and have fun," he says.
+
+They jog together and Lila feels happy. She has a kind dad and a pretty stone. She thinks it is a good day.
+Lily and Tom liked to play in the big store. They liked to look at the toys and the books and the clothes. But they did not like the mean man who worked there. He always said, "No running, no touching, no fun!"
+
+One day, Lily and Tom saw a big box in the store. It had a sign that said, "Free candy inside!" They wanted to get some candy, so they ran to the box. But when they got inside, they heard a loud snap. The box was a trap! The mean man had set it up to catch them.
+
+Lily and Tom were very scared and sad. They could not get out of the trap. They could not see anything. They could only hear the mean man laughing. They felt very uncomfortable in the small and dark box. They wished they had listened to their mom, who had told them to stay close to her.
+
+But then, they heard another voice. It was their mom! She had seen the trap and the mean man. She was very angry and she called the police. The police came and opened the trap. They let Lily and Tom out and they hugged their mom. They were very happy and relieved. The police took the mean man away and said he was very bad.
+
+Lily and Tom learned a lesson. They never went to the big store again. They only played in the park and the library and their home. They always listened to their mom and they always had fun.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big gate that led to a forest. Lily wanted to go inside and see the trees and animals. Tom did not want to go. He said it was scary and dark. Lily and Tom disagreed. Lily said it was fun and exciting. Tom said it was dangerous and boring.
+
+Lily was angry with Tom. She said he was a baby and ran to the gate. Tom was sad and scared. He did not want to lose Lily, but he did not want to follow her. He called her name and asked her to come back. Lily did not listen. She opened the gate and went into the forest.
+
+The forest was not like the park. It was cold and quiet. There were no flowers or swings. There were only old trees and rocks. Lily felt alone and lost. She wished she had stayed with Tom. She tried to find the gate, but she could not. She was trapped in the forest.
+
+Then, she heard a loud roar. She turned around and saw a big bear. The bear was hungry and angry. It saw Lily and ran towards her. Lily was very afraid. She screamed and ran away. She looked for a place to hide or escape, but there was none. The bear was faster and stronger than her. It caught her and ate her.
+
+Tom heard Lily's scream. He felt sorry and guilty. He wanted to help her, but he was too late. He cried and ran back to the park. He wished he had never disagreed with Lily. He wished they had never seen the gate. He wished they had never gone to the forest. He wished they had stayed friends.
+Lily was very happy. Today was her birthday. She had a cake with candles, balloons and songs. She also had many gifts from her family and friends. She liked to open them and see what was inside.
+
+She opened a big box from her mom and dad. Inside was a new coat. It was pink and soft and warm. It had a zipper in the front. Lily loved zippers. She could zip and unzip them by herself. She tried on the coat and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, mom and dad! This is a great coat!" she said.
+
+"You're welcome, sweetie. We're glad you like it. You can wear it when it's cold outside." her mom said.
+
+Lily hugged her mom and dad. She was very happy. She received a great coat with a zipper. It was the best birthday ever.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the garden. One day, they saw a big bush with many blueberries. They wanted to eat them, but they knew they had to ask their moms first.
+
+"Let's plan a way to get the blueberries without asking," Ben said. "We can wait until our moms are busy, and then sneak out and pick some."
+
+"That sounds fun," Lily said. "But what if we get caught?"
+
+"We won't get caught," Ben said. "We are very smart and fast. Come on, let's go."
+
+They waited until their moms were talking on the phone, and then ran to the bush. They picked as many blueberries as they could, and stuffed them in their pockets. They were about to run back, when they heard a loud bark.
+
+It was Max, the neighbor's dog. He saw them and chased them. Lily and Ben were scared and ran as fast as they could. But Max was faster and caught up with them. He jumped on them and knocked them down. He sniffed their pockets and ate their blueberries.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Ben shouted. "Those are ours!"
+
+"Help, help!" Lily cried. "Go away, Max!"
+
+Their moms heard their screams and came to see what was wrong. They saw them on the ground, covered in dirt and blueberry juice, and Max licking his lips.
+
+"What happened here?" their moms asked.
+
+Lily and Ben felt ashamed and told the truth. They said they were sorry for taking the blueberries without asking.
+
+Their moms were not happy. They said they were foolish to plan such a thing. They said they could have asked for some blueberries, and they would have given them some. They said they had to learn to be honest and respectful.
+
+They made them clean up and apologize to the neighbor. They also said they had to share their toys with Max as a way of saying sorry.
+
+Lily and Ben learned their lesson. They never planned to do something bad again. They also became friends with Max, who liked to play with them in the garden. They realized that being good was better than being foolish.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys on the floor. But today, it is very cold outside. They feel cold too.
+
+"Mom, can we have some warm milk?" Anna requests.
+
+"Yes, of course, my loves. Come to the table and I will bring you some," Mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben run to the table. They sit on their chairs. They see two cups and two spoons. They are happy.
+
+Mom comes with a big pot. She pours some warm milk into the cups. She stirs some honey into the milk. She gives a cup to Anna and a cup to Ben.
+

+
+Mom hugs them. She is happy too. They drink their warm milk together. They have a nice time.
+Ben and Lily are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. They see a big truck come near the park. The truck has a lot of boxes on it. The truck stops and a man gets out.
+
+"Hello, kids!" the man says. "I have a tip for you. Do you want to see what is in the boxes?"
+
+Ben and Lily are curious. They nod and say yes. The man smiles and opens one of the boxes. He takes out a big teddy bear. He gives it to Lily. Lily hugs the teddy bear and says thank you.
+
+The man opens another box. He takes out a red car. He gives it to Ben. Ben likes the car and says thank you.
+
+The man says, "You are welcome, kids. I have more toys in the boxes, but I have to be quiet. The toys are for the children in the hospital. They are sick and need some fun. Can you keep a secret?"
+
+Ben and Lily nod and say yes. They promise to be quiet and not tell anyone. The man says, "You are very good kids. I have to go now. Bye bye!"
+
+The man gets in the truck and drives away. Ben and Lily wave and say bye bye. They are happy with their new toys. They play with them in the park. They are quiet and do not tell anyone. They have a tip for the children in the hospital. They hope they get well soon.
+Lily liked to help her mom in the office. She saw many papers and pens and things on the desk. She wanted to play with them, but mom said no. Mom said they were for work, not for fun.
+
+One day, mom had to go to a meeting. She told Lily to stay in the office and be good. She gave Lily a file and some crayons. She said Lily could draw on the file, but not on anything else. Lily said okay.
+
+Lily opened the file and saw many white papers. She picked a crayon and started to draw. She drew a house, a tree, a sun, and a cat. She was happy. She wanted to show mom her drawing.
+
+But then, she made a mistake. She dropped the crayon on the desk. It rolled and left a mark on a big paper. Lily was scared. She knew mom would be angry. She tried to wipe the mark with her hand, but it only made it worse. She looked for something to clean it, but she did not find anything.
+
+She heard mom coming back. She did not know what to do. She hid the file under the desk and hoped mom would not see it.
+
+Mom came in and smiled at Lily. She asked her what she did. Lily said nothing. Mom looked at the desk and saw the crayon mark. She frowned. She asked Lily if she did it. Lily nodded. She said sorry.
+
+Mom sighed. She picked up the paper and looked at it. She said it was important. She said it was for a modest man who helped many people. She said he would not like the mark. She said Lily should not play with work things.
+
+Lily felt bad. She wanted to make mom happy. She wanted to make the modest man happy. She had an idea. She took out the file and showed mom her drawing. She said she made it for the modest man. She said she hoped he would like it.
+
+Mom looked at the file and saw the drawing. She saw the house, the tree, the sun, and the cat. She smiled. She said it was very nice. She said the modest man would love it. She said Lily was very sweet. She hugged Lily and said she was not angry.
+
+Lily was happy. She hugged mom and said she loved her. She said she would not play with work things again. She said she would only draw on files. Mom laughed and said okay. She said they would go and give the file to the modest man. Lily said yes. She hoped he would smile too.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big black bird on a tree. It was a raven. The raven had a shiny thing in its beak. It was a ring.
+
+"Look, look, the bird has a ring!" Lily said.
+
+"Maybe it is a magic ring," Ben said. "Let's get it!"
+
+They ran to the tree and tried to climb it. But the raven saw them and flew away. It went to another tree, far away.
+
+"Come back, bird, come back!" Lily shouted.
+
+But the raven did not come back. It laughed at them. It said, "Caw, caw, you can't catch me! This is my ring, not yours!"
+
+Lily and Ben were sad. They wanted the ring. They thought it was pretty and fun.
+
+But they did not know that the ring was not magic. It was old and bad. It had been in the trash for a long time. It was dirty and rusty. It made the raven's beak rot. The raven did not feel good. It was sick and sore.
+
+The raven was also chubby. It ate too much food from the trash. It could not fly fast or far. It was tired and weak.
+
+One day, a big cat saw the raven. The cat was hungry and clever. It sneaked up on the raven and pounced on it. The raven tried to fly away, but it was too late. The cat caught the raven and ate it. The ring fell to the ground.
+
+Lily and Ben never saw the raven or the ring again. They did not miss them. They found other things to play with in the park. They were happy and healthy.
+Lily and Sam liked to jog with their dad every morning. They put on their shoes and hats and followed him to the park. They saw many things on the way: birds, flowers, cars, and people.
+
+"Look, dad, a big dog!" Lily said, pointing to a furry brown animal.
+
+"Be careful, Lily, some dogs are not friendly. Stay close to me," dad said, holding her hand.
+
+Sam saw a red ball on the grass. He ran to get it, but he did not see a bike coming. The bike was fast and loud. It almost hit Sam.
+
+"Stop, Sam, stop!" dad shouted, running after him.
+
+Sam heard dad and stopped. He was scared and sorry. He dropped the ball and hugged dad.
+
+"I'm sorry, dad, I wanted the ball," Sam said, crying.
+
+"It's okay, Sam, you are safe now. But you have to be wise and look both ways before you cross the road. The bike could have hurt you," dad said, wiping his tears.
+
+"I will be wise, dad, I promise," Sam said, smiling.
+
+Dad hugged Lily and Sam and gave them the ball. They thanked him and continued to jog. They had fun and learned a lesson. They loved their dad and he loved them.
+Anna and Ben liked to ride their bikes in the park. They had fun going fast and slow, up and down, and around and around. One day, Anna's bike made a loud noise and stopped. She looked at her bike and saw that her pedal was broken. She was sad and cried.
+
+Ben saw Anna crying and rode to her. He asked, "What is wrong, Anna?" Anna showed him her broken pedal and said, "My bike is broken. I can't ride it anymore." Ben said, "Don't cry, Anna. I can help you. I know how to repair bikes. My dad taught me."
+
+Ben took out his tools from his backpack and started to fix Anna's pedal. He worked hard and carefully. He said, "You need a new pedal, Anna. But I can make this one work for now. You can ride your bike again, but you have to be gentle with it. And you have to ask your dad to buy you a new pedal soon."
+
+Anna smiled and thanked Ben. She said, "You are very kind, Ben. And you are very wise. You know how to repair bikes. How did you learn that?" Ben said, "My dad loves bikes. He repairs them all the time. He says that bikes are like friends. You have to take care of them and respect them. And they will take you to many places and make you happy."
+
+Anna and Ben hugged and rode their bikes together. They learned that it is good to help each other and to share their skills. They also learned that bikes are like friends. They have to take care of them and respect them. And they will have fun and be happy.
+Sara and Tom are friends who like to play outside. One day, they see a big van with many colors and pictures on it. The van says "Ice Cream" and has a loud bell. Sara and Tom love ice cream, but they do not have any money.
+
+"Let's go and ask for some ice cream," Sara says. "Maybe the man will give us some for free."
+
+"I don't know," Tom says. "He might be angry or mean. He might say no."
+
+Sara thinks Tom is scared. She wants to show him she is brave. She says, "I dare you to go and ask for some ice cream. If you do, I will give you my toy car."
+
+Tom likes Sara's toy car. It is red and shiny and fast. He thinks for a moment. He does not want to be scared. He says, "OK, I will do it. But you have to come with me."
+
+Sara and Tom hold hands and walk to the van. They see the man who sells ice cream. He is smiling and has a big hat. He looks nice and charming. He says, "Hello, kids. Do you want some ice cream?"
+
+Sara and Tom nod. They say, "Yes, please. But we don't have any money. Can we have some for free?"
+
+The man laughs. He says, "Sure, why not? You are very polite and cute. What flavor do you want?"
+
+Sara and Tom choose their favorite flavors. The man gives them each a cone with a scoop of ice cream. He says, "Enjoy your ice cream. And don't forget to share your toys."
+
+Sara and Tom say, "Thank you, sir. You are very kind and generous." They go back to their spot and eat their ice cream. They are happy and proud. They also share their toys. Sara gives Tom her toy car and Tom gives Sara his toy ball. They play together until their parents come to pick them up. They hug and say, "Bye, friend. See you tomorrow."
+Tom and Anna were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big pot on the stove. It had steam coming out of it.
+
+"What is in there?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Let's look," Anna said.
+
+They climbed on a chair and peeked inside the pot. It was soup. It smelled good.
+
+"I want some," Tom said.
+
+"Me too," Anna said.
+
+They reached for the pot. But it was very hot. It burned their hands. They screamed and let go of the pot. The pot tipped over and spilled soup on the floor.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna cried.
+
+They ran to the sink and put their hands under the water. It felt better.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and the kids.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked.
+
+"We wanted soup," Tom said.
+
+"But the pot was hot," Anna said.
+
+"It burned our hands," Tom said.
+
+"And our lips," Anna said.
+
+They showed Mom their red lips.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I'm sorry, my loves. You should never touch the stove or the pots. They can burn you. It's very dangerous."
+
+"We know, Mom," Tom said.
+
+"We're sorry, Mom," Anna said.
+
+Mom said, "It's okay. I'm glad you're not hurt badly. But you were very stupid. Next time, ask me first if you want soup. I'll make it for you when it's not hot."
+
+"Okay, Mom," Tom and Anna said.
+
+They helped Mom clean up the kitchen. Then they had some soup and bread. It was yummy. They did not burn their lips again.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toy cars on the floor. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving in different places. Sometimes they would share their cars and sometimes they would want their own.
+
+"Look, this is a landscape with mountains and trees and a river," Ben said, pointing to a picture on the wall. "I want to drive my car there."
+
+"Me too, me too," Anna said, grabbing Ben's car. "Give it to me, it's my turn."
+
+"No, it's mine, you have your own car," Ben said, pulling it back. "You are selfish, you always want what I have."
+
+They started to fight over the car, pulling and pushing and shouting. They did not hear their mom coming into the room.
+
+"Ah-choo!" Mom sneezed loudly, making them stop and look at her. She had a tissue in her hand and a red nose.
+
+"Mom, are you sick?" Anna asked, dropping the car.
+
+"Yes, I have a cold," Mom said, smiling weakly. "That's why I need you to be quiet and nice to each other. Can you do that for me?"
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry for their mom. They did not want her to be sick. They decided to stop fighting and share their cars.
+
+"OK, Mom, we will be quiet and nice," Ben said, giving Anna his car. "You can drive it in the landscape, Anna."
+
+"Thank you, Ben, you are not selfish," Anna said, giving Ben a hug. "You can drive my car too."
+
+They played together peacefully, making soft noises and imagining they were in the landscape. Mom smiled and thanked them. She hoped they would not catch her cold. She gave them each a kiss and a tissue, just in case.
+Tom and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. They had many cubes of different colors and sizes. They liked to stack them up and make towers and houses and bridges. Sometimes they knocked them down and started again.
+
+"Look, Mia, I made a big white cube!" Tom said, holding up a cube that was bigger than his hand. "It is a snow cube. It is very cold and hard."
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is a nice cube!" Mia said, admiring his work. "Can I touch it?"
+
+"Sure, Mia, but be careful. It might melt in your hand." Tom said, handing her the cube.
+
+Mia took the cube and felt how cold and smooth it was. She liked it very much. She pretended it was a snowman and gave it a smile and a nose and a hat. She showed it to Tom and said, "Look, Tom, I made a snowman! He is very happy and friendly."
+
+Tom smiled and said, "He is a cute snowman, Mia. But do you know what else he can do?"
+
+"What, Tom?" Mia asked, curious.
+
+"He can roar!" Tom said, and made a loud roaring sound. He took the cube from Mia and threw it in the air. He caught it and roared again. He pretended the cube was a lion and chased Mia around the living room.
+
+Mia laughed and ran away from Tom. She said, "No, Tom, stop! The snowman is not a lion! He is a snowman!"
+
+Tom roared and said, "No, Mia, he is a lion! A white lion! He is very strong and brave!"
+
+They played and roared and had fun with the cube until their mom called them for lunch. They put the cube back in the toy box and went to the kitchen. They were hungry and happy. They liked to play with their cubes and make stories.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. They had a red wagon that they shared. Sometimes they took turns pulling the wagon, and sometimes they both sat in it and asked their mom to push them.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He had a big blue wagon that looked shiny and new. He also had a lot of toys in his wagon, like a ball, a truck, a doll, and a book. Tom and Lily wanted to play with him and his toys, but they felt jealous of his wagon.
+
+"Hi, I'm Ben," the new boy said. "Do you want to play with me?"
+
+"Hi, I'm Tom, and this is Lily," Tom said. "We like your wagon. Can we see it?"
+
+"Sure, you can see it, but you can't touch it," Ben said. "It's mine, and I don't share."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sad and angry. They did not like Ben. They thought he was mean and selfish. They wanted to play with his toys, but they also wanted to keep their wagon.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go," Tom said. "We don't need him. We have our own wagon, and we share."
+
+They pulled their wagon away from Ben and looked for a nice spot to play. They found a hill and decided to roll their wagon down it. They laughed and had fun. They forgot about Ben and his wagon.
+
+They did not understand why Ben did not want to share. They thought sharing was good and made friends. They were happy with their wagon and each other. They did not need a big blue wagon to have fun.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big book of spells. It has many pictures and words.
+
+"Wow, look at this book!" Tom says. "It has spells for magic and fun!"
+
+"Can I see?" Mia asks. "I want to read too!"
+
+Tom nods and gives Mia the book. They sit on the floor and look at the pages. They see spells for making things fly, change color, and disappear.
+
+"Let's try one!" Tom says. He points to a spell that says "Make a cake". He reads the words out loud.
+
+"Make a cake, make a cake, with sugar and spice and everything nice!"
+
+Suddenly, a big cake appears on the table. It has pink frosting and sprinkles. It smells yummy.
+
+"Wow, it worked!" Mia says. "The book is magic!"
+
+They run to the table and grab forks. They are about to eat the cake when they hear a voice.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" It is Tom's mom. She looks angry. "That is my cake! I made it for your dad's birthday!"
+
+Tom and Mia feel guilty. They know they did something bad. They look at each other and then at Tom's mom.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," Tom says. "We found a book of spells and we wanted to try one. We did not know it was your cake."
+
+"We did not mean to take it," Mia says. "We wanted to share it with you and dad."
+
+Tom's mom sighs. She sees the book on the floor. She picks it up and looks at it.
+
+"This is not a real book of spells," she says. "It is a joke book. The spells are just silly words. The cake was not magic. It was in the oven. You just moved it to the table."
+
+Tom and Mia feel silly. They thought they were doing magic, but they were not. They hug Tom's mom and say sorry again.
+
+"It's okay, kids," Tom's mom says. "I know you were curious and having fun. But you should not take things that are not yours. And you should always ask before you use someone else's book."
+
+Tom and Mia nod. They understand. They promise to be more careful next time.
+
+Tom's mom smiles. She cuts the cake and gives them each a slice. She says they can share it with dad later. They say thank you and eat the cake. It is delicious. They are happy. They learned a lesson. They are still friends.
+Lily was a big girl who liked to help her mom and dad. She had a job every day to serve them water and fruit when they came home from work. She felt happy and proud to do her job.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big truck outside her house. It was very loud and shiny. She wanted to see it up close. She forgot about her job and ran outside. She left the water and fruit on the table.
+
+"Hello, little girl," said the man who drove the truck. "Do you like my truck?"
+
+"Yes, it is very nice," said Lily. "What is your job?"
+
+"I am a firefighter," said the man. "I help people when there is a fire. I have to be strong and brave."
+
+"Wow, that is a good job," said Lily. "Can I see your truck?"
+
+"Sure, but only for a minute," said the man. "Then I have to go back to work."
+
+Lily climbed on the truck and looked at the hose and the ladder. She felt excited and curious. She wanted to be a firefighter too.
+
+Meanwhile, her mom and dad came home from work. They were tired and thirsty. They looked for Lily and saw her on the truck. They were worried and angry.
+
+"Lily, what are you doing?" they shouted. "You forgot your job! You did not serve us water and fruit!"
+
+Lily heard them and felt sorry. She jumped off the truck and ran to them. She hugged them and said, "I am sorry, mom and dad. I wanted to see the truck. I did not mean to forget my job. Please forgive me."
+
+Her mom and dad hugged her back and said, "We forgive you, Lily. But you have to remember your job. It is important to serve others and be kind. That is how you show your love."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I understand, mom and dad. I love you. And I love the firefighter too. He has a good job. He serves others and is strong and brave."
+
+The firefighter smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a sweet girl. Maybe one day you can be a firefighter too. But for now, you have to do your job at home. It is also a good job. You serve your mom and dad and are happy and proud."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Yes, I will do my job at home. And I will also dream of being a firefighter. Thank you for showing me your truck."
+
+The firefighter waved and drove away. Lily took the water and fruit and served her mom and dad. They ate and drank and talked about their day. They were happy and grateful. They thanked Lily for her job and told her they were proud of her. Lily felt happy and proud too. She learned that serving others is a good way to show love and to be strong.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw some flowers and bees and butterflies. They smelled the flowers and heard the bees buzz.
+
+"Look, Mia, a mosquito!" Ben said. He pointed to a small bug with wings and a long nose.
+
+"Where?" Mia asked. She looked around.
+
+"There, on your arm!" Ben said. He tried to slap the mosquito, but it flew away.
+
+"Ow, Ben, that hurt!" Mia said. She rubbed her arm. "Why did you do that?"
+
+"I wanted to help you. Mosquitoes are bad. They bite and make you itch. They taste your blood," Ben said.
+
+"They taste my blood?" Mia asked. She felt scared. "That sounds wild!"
+
+"Yes, they do. They are wild bugs. They like to taste people and animals. But we don't like to taste them. They are yucky," Ben said.
+
+"Yucky, yucky, yucky!" Mia said. She made a face. "I don't want mosquitoes to taste me. Let's go away from them."
+
+"OK, let's go. Maybe we can find some ice cream. Ice cream is good. It tastes sweet and cold," Ben said.
+
+"Yay, ice cream!" Mia said. She smiled. "I like to taste ice cream. Come on, Ben, let's go!"
+
+They ran to the ice cream truck. They forgot about the mosquitoes. They tasted their ice cream and licked their lips. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben like to help Mom in the kitchen. Today, Mom is making spaghetti for dinner. Sara and Ben want to add something to the spaghetti.
+
+"Can we add cheese, Mom?" Sara asks.
+
+"Yes, you can add cheese. Cheese is good for spaghetti," Mom says.
+
+"Can we add ketchup, Mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"No, you can't add ketchup. Ketchup is not good for spaghetti," Mom says.
+
+"Why not, Mom?" Ben says.
+
+"Because ketchup is too sweet and sour. It does not match with spaghetti," Mom says.
+
+"Can we add salt, Mom?" Sara and Ben ask together.
+
+"A little bit, yes. Salt is good for spaghetti. But not too much. Too much salt is bad for you," Mom says.
+
+Mom gives Sara and Ben a small spoon each. They add a little bit of cheese and salt to the spaghetti. Mom stirs the spaghetti with a big spoon. She smiles at Sara and Ben.
+
+"Good job, Sara and Ben. You are good helpers. Now, let's eat the spaghetti. It smells good and tastes good," Mom says.

+
+"Can I have a grape?" Ben asks Lily.
+
+Lily is bossy. She does not want to share. She says, "No, these are my grapes. You can't have any."
+
+Ben is sad. He says, "That's not nice. You should share with your friends."
+
+Lily says, "No, I don't have to. I'm the boss. I can do what I want."
+
+Ben is angry. He says, "You're not the boss. You're just mean. I don't want to play with you anymore."
+
+He walks away. He sees another friend, Sam. Sam has a toy car. He likes to show his toy car to his friends.
+
+"Hi, Ben. Do you want to see my toy car?" Sam asks Ben.
+
+Ben smiles. He says, "Yes, please. I like toy cars. They are fun."
+
+Sam shows Ben his toy car. He says, "This is my toy car. It can go fast and make noises. Do you want to try it?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, thank you. You are very nice. You like to share with your friends."
+
+Sam says, "You're welcome. Sharing is good. It makes us happy."
+
+Ben and Sam play with the toy car. They have fun. They are happy. Lily sees them. She feels lonely. She wishes she had shared her grapes. She learns a lesson. She decides to be less bossy and more kind.
+Lily liked to show her toys to her friends. She had many toys, but her favorite was a big bear with soft fur. She always hugged her bear and gave him a name. She called him Ben.
+
+One day, Lily invited her friend Max to play at her house. She wanted to show him her bear and have a tea party. She was very organized and set up a table with cups and plates and cookies. She put Ben on a chair and said, "This is Ben. He is my best friend. Do you want to meet him?"
+
+Max looked at Ben and smiled. He liked bears too. He said, "Hello, Ben. You are very nice. Can I touch your fur?" Lily nodded and said, "Yes, you can. But be gentle. He is very soft."
+
+Max reached out his hand and stroked Ben's fur. He felt something hard and shiny under the fur. He pulled it out and saw a key. He said, "What is this? A key? What does it do?"
+
+Lily gasped and said, "Oh, no! That is Ben's secret. He is not just a bear. He is a music box. If you turn the key, he plays a song. But you can't tell anyone. It is our secret."
+
+Max was surprised and curious. He said, "A music box? That is amazing. Can we hear the song?" Lily nodded and said, "Yes, we can. But only if you promise to keep it a secret. And you have to share the cookies with me and Ben."
+
+Max agreed and said, "I promise. And I will share the cookies. You are very nice, Lily. And so is Ben." He turned the key and Ben started to play a beautiful song. Lily and Max smiled and clapped their hands. They had a tea party and listened to the song. They were very happy. They had a new secret and a new friend.
+Tommy was a naughty boy. He liked to make trouble for his mom and dad. He did not listen to them or do what they said. He made a mess in his room, he spilled his milk on the floor, and he broke his sister's toy.
+
+One day, Tommy saw a big white pepper on the kitchen table. He wondered what it was. He thought it looked like a candy. He wanted to taste it. He did not ask his mom or dad. He just took the pepper and put it in his mouth.
+
+But the pepper was not a candy. It was very hot and spicy. Tommy felt a fire in his mouth. He screamed and cried. He spit out the pepper and ran to the sink. He drank a lot of water, but it did not help. His mouth still burned.
+
+His mom and dad heard his scream and came to the kitchen. They saw the pepper on the floor and the water on the sink. They knew what Tommy had done. They were very angry and sad. They said, "Tommy, you are a very naughty boy. You took the pepper without asking. You could have hurt yourself. You need to learn a lesson. We are going to punish you. You cannot have any dessert or watch any TV today. You have to go to your room and think about what you did."
+
+Tommy felt very sorry and ashamed. He wished he had not taken the pepper. He wished he had been a good boy. He went to his room and cried. He had no fun and no friends. He had a bad day. He learned his lesson. He never took the pepper again.
+Sara and Ben like to play on the beach. They make sand castles and look for shells. They also like to spin in the water and make waves with their arms and legs.
+
+One day, they see a big wave coming. Sara is scared and runs to the shore. Ben is brave and stays in the water. He wants to spin in the big wave and have fun.
+
+"Come on, Sara, don't be scared!" Ben shouts. "The wave is not bad, it is fun!"
+
+"No, Ben, the wave is too big and too fast!" Sara shouts back. "It will knock you down and hurt you!"
+
+Ben does not listen to Sara. He spins in the water and waits for the big wave. The big wave comes and hits Ben hard. Ben falls down and goes under the water. He cannot breathe and he feels pain.
+
+Sara sees Ben fall down and she is very worried. She runs to the water and looks for Ben. She sees Ben's head come out of the water. He is coughing and crying.
+
+"Ben, Ben, are you okay?" Sara asks. She helps Ben get out of the water and hugs him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara, I was wrong," Ben says. "The wave was too big and too fast. It was not fun, it was scary. You were right, Sara, you were fair."
+
+Sara smiles and kisses Ben's cheek. She says, "It's okay, Ben, I'm glad you are okay. I love you, Ben, you are my brother."
+
+They hold hands and walk back to the shore. They decide to play with the sand castles and the shells. They do not spin in the water or make waves anymore. They are happy and safe.

+But Lila did not listen. She slid down the slide. She slid too fast. She slid out of control. She slid off the edge. She fell to the ground. She hurt her knee and her elbow. She cried and cried.
+
+Her mom and dad ran to her. They hugged her and kissed her. They put a band-aid on her knee and her elbow. They said, "Lila, you were foolish. You should not slide on a slide that is not for you. You should listen to us. We love you and we want you to be safe."
+
+Lila said, "I'm sorry, mom and dad. I was foolish. I wanted to slide on the big slide. But it was scary and it hurt. I don't want to slide on it again. I like my slide better. Can we go home and slide on my slide?"

+Her mom and dad smiled and said, "Yes, Lila. We can go home and slide on your slide. But first, say sorry to the big kids who were waiting for their turn on the slide."

+Lila said, "Sorry, big kids. I did not mean to take your slide. You can have it. I hope you have fun."

+
+They got in the car and drove to the big place where the planes were. They had to wait in a long line and show their tickets. Then they had to put their luggage on a belt. A machine made a loud noise and took their luggage away. Lily and Tom were scared. Where did their luggage go? Would they see it again?
+
+Mom and Dad told them not to worry. The machine was just checking their luggage for safety. They would get their luggage back when they got to their destination. They said it was part of the adventure. Lily and Tom tried to be brave and curious.
+
+They walked to the gate and boarded the plane. They found their seats and buckled their belts. They looked out the window and saw the plane moving. The plane went faster and faster and then lifted off the ground. Lily and Tom felt a funny feeling in their stomachs. They held Mom and Dad's hands and smiled. They were flying!
+
+The plane flew for a long time. Lily and Tom watched a movie, played with their toys and ate some snacks. They also took a nap. When they woke up, they heard the pilot say they were almost there. They looked out the window and saw a new place. It was green and blue and sunny. They saw mountains and lakes and houses. They were happy.

+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big dollhouse. The dollhouse was a luxury, because it was very expensive and had many rooms and furniture. Tom and Lily cared for their dollhouse and kept it clean and neat.
+
+One day, their cousin Ben came to visit. Ben was older and liked to tease Tom and Lily. He saw their dollhouse and said, "What a silly toy! It is too small and boring. I have a better toy at home. It is a robot that can talk and move." Tom and Lily felt sad and angry. They loved their dollhouse and did not want Ben to make fun of it.
+
+They said to Ben, "Our dollhouse is not silly. It is a luxury and we care for it. Your robot is not a better toy. It is loud and rude. You cannot play with our dollhouse. Go away!" Ben did not listen. He said, "I can play with whatever I want. You are just babies who do not know anything. Watch me!" He grabbed the dollhouse and lifted it up. He tried to shake it and make it fall.
+
+Tom and Lily screamed and ran to stop Ben. They pulled the dollhouse from his hands and hugged it. They said, "Stop it, Ben! You are mean and bad. You are breaking our dollhouse. You do not care for anything. Go away and do not come back!" Ben dropped the dollhouse and ran away. He was scared and sorry. He did not mean to break the dollhouse. He just wanted to have some fun.
+
+Tom and Lily checked their dollhouse. It was not broken, but some furniture was loose and some dolls were missing. They fixed the furniture and found the dolls. They said, "We are glad our dollhouse is okay. We are sorry Ben was mean to us. We hope he learns to care for other people's toys. We love our dollhouse and we love each other." They smiled and hugged. They played with their dollhouse and had fun.
+Lila and Sam were playing dress-up in the attic. They found a big box of old clothes and hats and scarves. Lila liked a red dress with shiny buttons and a long veil that covered her face. She put it on and pretended to be a princess.
+
+"Look at me, Sam! I am a princess and you are my knight!" she said.
+
+Sam smiled and picked up a wooden sword and a helmet. He put them on and pretended to be a brave knight. He bowed to Lila and said, "Yes, my princess. I will protect you from the dragon!"
+
+They ran around the attic, making noises and having fun. They saw a big stuffed animal that looked like a dragon. It had green scales and yellow eyes and a long tail. Sam pointed his sword at it and said, "There is the dragon, princess! Do not be afraid, I will fight it!"
+
+Lila hid behind a chair and said, "Be careful, knight! The dragon is very big and scary!"
+

+"No, Ben, this is my block!" Anna said. She pulled the block away from Ben.
+
+Ben was angry. He wanted the red block. He saw another block on the floor. It was yellow and shiny. It had a spark on it. Ben did not know what it was, but he liked it. He grabbed the block and ran to his tower.
+
+"Hey, what is that?" Anna asked. She followed Ben and saw the yellow block. She wanted it too. She tried to take it from Ben.
+
+"Stop, Anna, this is mine!" Ben said. He held the block tight.
+
+Anna did not listen. She pinched Ben's arm. Ben cried out. He dropped the block and rubbed his arm.
+
+"Ow, Anna, that hurt!" Ben said. He was sad and mad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben, I didn't mean to hurt you," Anna said. She felt bad. She picked up the block and gave it to Ben. "Here, you can have it. It's a nice block."
+
+Ben looked at the block. He looked at Anna. He smiled. He gave the block back to Anna. "No, you can have it. It's a nice block. And you are my sister."
+
+Anna smiled too. She hugged Ben. "Thank you, Ben. You are my brother. And we can share the block."
+
+They played with the block together. They found out that it was a light block. It made a spark when they pressed a button. They liked the spark. It was bright and pretty. They made a house with the light block on top. It was their house. And they were happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy trucks in the garden. They liked to load them with sand, rocks and leaves and drive them around. Lily had a big red truck and Tom had a small blue one.
+
+One day, Tom saw a shiny coin on the ground. He wanted to load it on his truck, but it was too big. He tried to push it, pull it and roll it, but it did not move. He felt a worry in his tummy. He wanted the coin very much.
+
+Lily saw Tom trying to load the coin. She asked him what he was doing. Tom said he wanted the coin for his truck. Lily said the coin was too big and heavy for his truck. She said he should leave it and play with something else. But Tom was persistent. He did not listen to Lily. He kept trying to load the coin.
+
+Lily got bored of watching Tom. She decided to play with her truck by herself. She loaded it with sand, rocks and leaves and drove it around. She had fun making noises and pretending to be a driver.
+
+Tom got tired of trying to load the coin. He looked up and saw Lily playing with her truck. He felt a worry in his tummy. He wanted to play with Lily. He left the coin and ran to Lily. He asked her if he could play with her truck. Lily said yes, but only if he shared. Tom said he would share. They loaded their trucks with sand, rocks and leaves and drove them around. They had fun making noises and pretending to be drivers. They forgot about the coin.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big box full of toys. Tom found a sword and said, "Look, Lily, I have a sword! I can be a knight and fight dragons!"
+
+Lily said, "No, Tom, that is not a sword. That is a stick. A sword is shiny and sharp. A stick is brown and dull. You cannot be a knight with a stick."
+
+Tom was confused. He looked at the stick and said, "But it looks like a sword to me. It is long and pointy. And I can make a sound like this: swish, swish!"
+
+Lily shook her head and said, "No, Tom, you are wrong. A sword is not like that. A sword is like this." She took a toy sword from the box and showed it to Tom. It was shiny and sharp. It had a handle and a blade. It made a sound like this: clang, clang!
+
+Tom was angry. He said, "That is not a sword, Lily. That is a toy. A toy is not real. A toy is fake. You cannot be a knight with a toy."
+
+Lily was sad. She said, "But, Tom, I love this toy. It is my favorite. It is not fake to me. It is real to me. And I can be a knight with it. I can be a princess knight and save people."
+
+Tom and Lily stared at each other. They did not understand each other. They did not want to share their swords. They did not want to play together. They were not happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to open and close the cabinet doors and pretend they were cooking. But they did not listen to Mom when she told them to be careful and not make a mess.
+
+"Look, Tom, I found a big jar of cookies in this cabinet!" Lily said. She opened the jar and took out a cookie. "Do you want one?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom said. He reached for the jar, but he was too short. He pulled the jar down, but it was too heavy. The jar fell on the floor and broke into many pieces. The cookies spilled everywhere. The noise was very loud.
+
+Mom heard the loud noise and ran to the kitchen. She saw the broken jar, the cookies, and the scared children. She was very angry and sad.
+
+"Lily and Tom, what have you done?" Mom said. "You broke the jar and wasted the cookies. You made a big mess and could have hurt yourselves. You did not listen to me. You were very naughty."
+
+Lily and Tom felt very sorry. They wanted to say sorry to Mom, but they did not know how. They started to cry.
+
+Mom did not hug them or comfort them. She made them clean up the mess and go to their room. She did not give them any cookies or any other treat. She did not read them a story or sing them a song. She did not say good night or I love you.
+
+Lily and Tom felt very lonely and sad. They wished they had listened to Mom and played nicely. They learned that being naughty has bad consequences. They hoped Mom would forgive them and love them again.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toys. Anna has a big doll with a soft dress and long hair. Ben has a small car with four wheels and a loud horn. They like to share their toys and have fun.
+
+But today, Anna sees a new toy on the shelf. It is a shiny star with many colors. It looks like a prize. Anna wants to play with it. She climbs on a chair and reaches for the star.
+
+"Anna, be careful!" Ben says. "That star is sharp. It can hurt you."
+
+Anna does not listen. She grabs the star and pulls it down. But the star is not a toy. It is a decoration made of metal. It has many sharp points that poke Anna's hand. Anna cries out in pain and drops the star.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna says. "My hand hurts. It is bleeding."
+
+Ben runs to Anna and hugs her. He is sorry for his sister. He takes a soft cloth and wraps it around Anna's hand. He helps her get down from the chair.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna," Ben says. "I tried to warn you. That star is not a toy. It is a decoration. It is sharp and dangerous."
+
+Anna nods. She is sorry too. She did not listen to Ben. She was greedy and curious. She learned a lesson.
+
+"Thank you, Ben," Anna says. "You are a good brother. You helped me. I love you."
+
+"I love you too, Anna," Ben says. "Let's play with our toys. They are safe and fun."
+
+They smile and hug. They play with their toys. They forget about the star. They are happy.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the kitchen. They see a big cake on the shelf. The cake is for Mom's birthday. It looks delicious.
+
+"Let's have some cake," Sara says.
+
+"No, we can't. Mom will be angry," Ben says.
+
+"But I'm hungry. And the cake is yummy," Sara says.
+
+She takes a chair and climbs on it. She reaches for the cake. She steals a piece and eats it.
+
+"Mmm, so good," she says.
+
+Ben sees Sara eating the cake. He is scared. He hears Mom coming.
+
+"Sara, stop! Mom is here!" he says.
+
+But Sara does not listen. She steals another piece of cake. She has cake all over her face.
+
+Mom walks in the kitchen. She sees the cake on the shelf. She sees Sara and Ben.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asks.
+
+Sara and Ben look at Mom. They are quiet.
+
+Mom sees the cake pieces in Sara's hand. She sees the cake crumbs on the floor. She is not happy.
+
+"Sara, did you steal the cake?" she asks.
+
+Sara nods. She is sorry.
+
+"Ben, did you help her?" she asks.
+
+Ben shakes his head. He is honest.
+
+Mom sighs. She is sad.
+
+"Sara, you know you should not steal. Stealing is bad. And you ruined the cake for my birthday. How do you think I feel?" she asks.
+
+Sara feels bad. She wants to make Mom happy.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. I love you. Can I give you a hug?" she asks.
+
+Mom smiles. She loves Sara and Ben. She gives them a hug.
+
+"I love you too, Sara and Ben. But you have to learn to share and wait. And you have to say sorry to the cake," she says.
+
+Sara and Ben say sorry to the cake. They help Mom fix the cake. They put candles on it. They sing happy birthday to Mom. They have some cake together. It is delicious.
+Ben and Mia wanted to make a cake for Mom. They found a book with a picture of a cake. They got a big bowl, some eggs, some flour, some sugar, some butter and some milk. They tried to measure the things like the book said, but they did not have a cup or a spoon. They used their hands and guessed how much they needed.
+
+They mixed everything in the bowl and poured it into a pan. They put the pan in the oven and turned it on. They did not know how long to wait, so they played with their toys. They forgot about the cake.
+
+Soon, they smelled something smelly. It was the cake. It was burning. They ran to the oven and opened it. Smoke came out and made them cough. The cake was black and hard. They heard Mom coming home. They were scared.
+
+Mom saw the smoke and the mess. She was angry. She asked them what they did. They told her they wanted to make a cake for her. She said they should have asked her first. She said they could have started a fire. She said they were naughty. She said they had to clean up and go to bed. They cried.
+
+They did not have a cake for Mom. They did not have fun. They were sorry. They learned a lesson.
+Lily liked to bathe in the big tub. She had many toys to play with. She had a duck, a boat, a fish and a frog. She made them swim and splash and talk to each other. She liked to make bubbles with the soap and blow them in the air.
+
+One day, Lily smelled something good from the kitchen. She asked her mom what it was. Her mom said it was a pie. A pie for dad. Dad was coming home soon. It was his birthday. The pie was important. It was his favorite. It had apples and cinnamon and sugar.
+
+Lily wanted to see the pie. She got out of the tub and dried herself with a towel. She put on her clothes and ran to the kitchen. She saw the pie on the table. It looked yummy. She wanted to taste it. She reached for it with her hand.
+
+But her mom saw her and stopped her. She said, "No, Lily, you can't touch the pie. It's hot. And it's for dad. You have to wait until he comes home. Then we can all have a slice and sing happy birthday to him."
+
+Lily felt sad. She wanted the pie now. She pouted and cried. Her mom hugged her and said, "I know, Lily, I know. But you have to be patient. And you have to be careful. The pie is not a toy. It's a gift. A gift for someone we love. And we want to make him happy, right?"
+
+Lily nodded. She loved her dad. She wanted to make him happy. She said sorry to her mom. She said she would wait for the pie. She asked her mom if she could help with something. Her mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can. You can help me make a card for dad. A card with your name and a drawing. That would be a nice gift, too."
+
+Lily liked that idea. She liked to draw. She went to get some paper and crayons. She made a card for dad. She wrote her name and drew a pie and a heart. She gave it to her mom. Her mom said it was beautiful. She said dad would love it.
+
+They heard a car in the driveway. They heard a door slam. They heard footsteps. They heard dad's voice. He was home. Lily ran to the door. She shouted, "Dad, dad, happy birthday! I have a card for you! And mom made a pie for you! A pie with apples and cinnamon and sugar! Your favorite!"
+
+Dad smiled and hugged Lily. He said, "Thank you, Lily, thank you! You are the best! I love your card! And I love the pie! And I love you! And I love mom! You are the most important people in my life!"
+
+They all went to the kitchen. They cut the pie. They gave dad a big slice. They gave Lily a small slice. They gave mom a slice, too. They sang happy birthday to dad. They ate the pie. It was yummy. They were happy. They were a family.
+Ben and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw many trees and flowers. They liked to run and play on the grass. Mom said they could pick some pine cones to take home.
+
+"Look, Lily, this pine cone is big and brown," Ben said. He held a pine cone in his hand.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that is a nice pine cone. Can I have it?" Lily asked. She reached for the pine cone.
+
+"No, Lily, this is mine. You can find your own pine cone," Ben said. He pulled the pine cone away from Lily.
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted a pine cone too. She looked around and saw a small and green pine cone on the ground. She picked it up and showed it to Ben.
+
+"Look, Ben, this pine cone is small and green. It is different from yours. It is interesting," Lily said. She smiled and held the pine cone close to her chest.
+
+Ben looked at Lily's pine cone. He saw that it was different from his. He felt curious. He wanted to see it better.
+
+"Can I see your pine cone, Lily?" Ben asked. He reached for the pine cone.
+
+"OK, Ben, you can see it. But you have to share. We can both have pine cones," Lily said. She gave the pine cone to Ben.
+
+Ben and Lily looked at the pine cones together. They saw that they had different shapes and colors. They felt happy. They thanked Mom for taking them to the park. They talked about the pine cones all the way home.
+Sara and Ben like to play with their toy fishing rods. They pretend to catch fish in the pond. Sara has a red rod and Ben has a blue one. They both have hooks with magnets on them.
+
+One day, Sara sees a big fish in the water. She tries to catch it with her hook, but it is too fast. She pulls and pulls, but the fish swims away. She feels sad and angry.
+
+"Look, Sara, I got one!" Ben says. He shows her his hook with a small fish on it. The fish is plastic, but it looks real. Ben is happy and proud.
+
+Sara is envious of Ben. She wants a fish too. She thinks Ben's rod is better than hers. She says, "Give me your rod, Ben. Mine is broken. You have two rods, you can share."
+
+Ben shakes his head. He likes his rod. He says, "No, Sara, this is my rod. You have your own rod. It is not broken, you just need to try harder. You can catch a fish too, if you are patient and careful."
+
+Sara does not listen to Ben. She tries to grab his rod, but he holds it tight. They start to fight over the rod. They pull and tug, but neither of them can manage to take it. They make a lot of noise and splash the water.
+
+Their mom hears them and comes to the pond. She sees them fighting and scolds them. She says, "Stop it, Sara and Ben. You are being naughty and selfish. You should not fight over toys. You should share and play nicely. You can both have fun with your rods, if you use them properly. Now, apologize to each other and say sorry."
+
+Sara and Ben feel ashamed and sorry. They say sorry to each other and hug. They also say sorry to their mom and promise to behave. They go back to their fishing game, but this time, they take turns and help each other. They both catch some fish and have fun. They are not envious anymore, they are happy and friendly.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to make a cake for Mom. They found some flour, sugar, eggs and milk. They put them in a big bowl. They took a spoon and started to stir.
+
+They stirred and stirred and stirred. They made a big mess. Flour and sugar went everywhere. Eggshells fell on the floor. Milk spilled on the table. They did not care. They were having fun.
+
+Mom was in the living room. She was reading a book. She did not hear the noise. She did not see the mess. She was ignorant. She thought Lily and Ben were quiet and good.
+
+Then, the oven beeped. Mom smelled something good. She went to the kitchen. She saw the cake. She saw the mess. She was shocked. She was angry. She was not ignorant anymore.
+
+She said to Lily and Ben: "What did you do? Look at this house! It is dirty and sticky. You are naughty and silly. You have to clean up. Now!"
+
+Lily and Ben were sad. They did not mean to make Mom angry. They wanted to make her happy. They said: "We are sorry, Mom. We made you a cake. We love you."
+
+Mom looked at the cake. It was brown and lumpy. It did not look good. But she saw the love. She smiled. She hugged Lily and Ben. She said: "I love you too. Thank you for the cake. But next time, please ask me first. And please, stir gently."
+Lily and Ben are playing soccer in the park. They are on the same team and they want to score a goal. They see a big net on the other side of the field. They run with the ball and kick it hard.
+
+But there is a problem. A boy from the other team is in front of the net. He is very tall and strong. He catches the ball with his hands and says, "No goal for you!"
+
+Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They want to try again. They ask the boy to give them the ball. But the boy refuses. He says, "This is my ball. You can't have it. Go away!"
+
+Lily and Ben don't like the boy. They think he is mean and selfish. They look at the sky and see that it is getting dark. They know they have to go home soon. They don't want to leave without scoring a goal.
+
+They have an idea. They pretend to walk away, but they hide behind a tree. They wait for the boy to get bored and put the ball down. Then they run out and grab the ball. They kick it into the net and shout, "Goal!"
+
+The boy is surprised and angry. He tries to get the ball back, but Lily and Ben are faster. They run away with the ball and smile. They are happy and proud. They scored a goal and they have a new ball. They go home and tell their mom and dad about their adventure.
+Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a small patch of dirt where they plant seeds. They water the seeds and watch them grow.
+
+One day, Tim and Kim see a big, bad cat in the garden. The cat is hungry and wants to eat the seeds. The cat digs up the dirt and makes a mess. Tim and Kim are sad and angry.
+
+They run to the cat and shout, "Go away, bad cat! Leave our patch alone!" The cat hisses and shows its teeth. Tim and Kim are scared, but they do not run away. They raise their arms and wave them. They make loud noises and throw stones. The cat does not like that. It runs away and does not come back.
+
+Tim and Kim are happy and brave. They fix their patch and plant new seeds. They hug each other and smile. They love their garden and their seeds. They hope they will grow into beautiful flowers.
+Lily was very happy. She was going to visit her grandma today. She loved her grandma very much. She liked to play with her, read stories with her, and eat cookies with her. She put on her white dress and her pink shoes. She grabbed her teddy bear and ran to the car.
+
+"Are you ready, Lily?" her mom asked.
+
+"Yes, mom, let's go!" Lily said.
+
+They drove for a long time. Lily looked out the window and saw many things. She saw trees, houses, cars, and animals. She asked her mom many questions.
+
+"Mom, what is that?" Lily pointed to a big building.
+
+"That is a school, Lily. That is where big kids go to learn."
+
+"Mom, what is that?" Lily pointed to a red truck.
+
+"That is a fire truck, Lily. That is where firefighters go to help people."
+
+"Mom, what is that?" Lily pointed to a black cat.
+
+"That is a cat, Lily. That is a pet that some people have."
+
+Lily kept asking questions. Her mom tried to answer them, but she was getting tired. She wanted to listen to some music. She turned on the radio and ignored Lily.
+
+"Mom, what is that?" Lily pointed to a yellow sign.
+
+"Mom, what is that?" Lily pointed to a blue bird.
+
+"Mom, what is that?" Lily pointed to a green frog.
+
+Lily did not get any answers. She felt sad and angry. She did not like to be ignored. She wanted her mom to talk to her. She started to cry.
+
+"Mom, why are you ignoring me?" Lily sobbed.
+
+Her mom heard her cry. She felt sorry. She turned off the radio and looked at Lily.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I was not ignoring you. I was just tired of talking. I love you, Lily. You are very smart and curious. You ask good questions. But sometimes, mom needs a break. Can you understand that?"
+
+Lily nodded. She wiped her tears. She hugged her teddy bear.
+
+"I love you, mom. I'm sorry I made you tired. Can we talk again later?"
+
+"Of course, Lily. We can talk again later. We are almost at grandma's house. Are you excited?"
+
+"Yes, mom. I'm very excited. I can't wait to see grandma."
+
+They smiled at each other. They arrived at grandma's house. They got out of the car. They saw grandma waiting for them. She had a big smile and a warm hug.
+
+"Hello, Lily. Hello, mom. I'm so happy to see you. Come in, come in. I have cookies and stories for you."
+
+Lily and her mom followed grandma. They forgot their troubles. They had a wonderful visit.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big potato. They pretended the potato was a car, a boat, a house, or anything they wanted. They shared the potato and had fun.
+
+One day, they had a fight over the potato. Tom wanted to make it a rocket and fly to the moon. Lily wanted to make it a cake and eat it. They both pulled the potato and shouted.
+
+"Give me the potato!" Tom said.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said.
+
+They were so angry that they did not see their dog, Spot, come into the room. Spot was a dependable dog who loved Tom and Lily. He saw the potato and thought it was a snack. He ran to the potato and grabbed it with his teeth. He ran away with the potato.
+
+Tom and Lily stopped fighting and looked at Spot. They realized they had been silly. They loved the potato, but they loved each other more. They ran after Spot and called him.
+
+"Spot, come back!" Tom said.
+
+"Please, give us the potato!" Lily said.
+
+Spot heard them and wagged his tail. He liked to play with Tom and Lily. He dropped the potato and licked their faces. Tom and Lily hugged Spot and thanked him. They took the potato and decided to share it. They made it a rocket-cake and pretended to fly to the moon and eat it. They laughed and played happily. They learned that fighting was not good and that sharing was better.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a chicken running around. The chicken was wet because it had rained. Tom wanted to catch the chicken and dry it with a towel. Lily said no.
+
+"No, Tom, leave the chicken alone. It is happy being wet. It likes to run and peck and flap its wings. It does not need a towel. You are ignorant. You do not know what the chicken wants."
+
+Tom did not listen to Lily. He thought he knew better. He ran after the chicken and grabbed it. The chicken was scared and angry. It squawked and scratched and bit Tom. Tom let go of the chicken and cried. He had a scratch on his arm and a bite on his finger. He ran to his mom and showed her his wounds.
+
+"Mom, the chicken hurt me. It was wet and I wanted to dry it. But it was mean to me."
+
+Mom looked at Tom and shook her head. She cleaned his arm and his finger and put a band-aid on them. She said to Tom:
+
+"Tom, you should have listened to Lily. She was right. The chicken was happy being wet. It did not need your help. You were ignorant. You did not understand the chicken. You should not bother animals that do not want to be bothered. You should respect them and let them be. That is the moral of the story."
+Sara and Ben are in the car with Mom. They are going to the park to play. Mom tells them to stay in their seats and buckle up. Sara and Ben do what Mom says. They are good and honest kids.
+
+But then, Sara sees a big red balloon outside the window. She loves balloons. She wants to have one. She unbuckles her seat belt and tries to reach for the balloon. Ben sees what Sara is doing and says, "No, Sara, no! You have to stay buckled. Mom said so. It is not safe to unbuckle."
+
+Sara does not listen to Ben. She thinks she can get the balloon. She leans out of the window and stretches her arm. But the balloon is too far away. She cannot get it. She feels sad and angry.
+
+Mom hears Ben and Sara talking. She looks in the mirror and sees Sara out of her seat. She says, "Sara, what are you doing? Get back in your seat and buckle up right now! You could get hurt if we stop or turn. You have to be honest and follow the rules."
+
+Sara feels ashamed and scared. She knows Mom is right. She says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I wanted the balloon. But I was wrong. I will buckle up and stay in my seat. I will be honest and good."
+
+Mom says, "Thank you, Sara. I'm glad you are sorry. But you have to be careful and listen to me and Ben. Balloons are nice, but they are not worth risking your safety. I love you and I want you to be safe."
+
+Sara says, "I love you too, Mom. And I love Ben. He tried to help me. He is a good brother."
+
+Ben says, "I love you too, Sara. And I love Mom. She is a good mom."
+
+Mom says, "I love you both. Now let's go to the park and have some fun."
+Lily and Ben are playing in the yard. They see a big black nail on the ground. Lily wants to pick it up, but Ben says no.
+
+"That is a bad nail. It can hurt you. Look, it has a sharp point. You can get a boo-boo," Ben says.
+
+Lily does not listen. She reaches for the nail. But the nail is too hot. It was in the sun for a long time. Lily feels a burn on her hand. She drops the nail and cries.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts, it hurts!" Lily says.
+
+Ben runs to Lily. He takes her hand and blows on it. He says sorry to her.
+
+"I am sorry, Lily. I did not want you to get hurt. I was trying to help you. Here, let me hug you. A hug can make you feel better," Ben says.
+
+He wraps his arms around Lily and gives her a big hug. Lily stops crying. She hugs him back. She says thank you to him.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. You are right. A hug can make me feel better. And you are right. That is a bad nail. I will not touch it again," Lily says.
+
+They smile at each other. They go back to playing. They are careful to avoid the black nail. They have fun in the yard. They are happy.
+Lily liked to design things with her crayons and paper. She made many pieces of art for her family and friends. She liked to draw flowers, animals, and houses.
+
+One day, she went to visit her grandma, who was elderly. Grandma lived in a small house with a big garden. Lily loved to see the roses, the birds, and the butterflies in the garden.
+
+"Hello, Lily, my dear," Grandma said. "I'm so happy to see you. Do you want to show me what you have designed today?"
+
+Lily nodded and opened her backpack. She took out a piece of paper with a drawing of Grandma's house and garden. She had used many colors and shapes to make it look pretty.
+
+"Wow, Lily, this is beautiful," Grandma said. "You are very talented. Thank you for making this for me. Can I hang it on my wall?"
+
+"Yes, Grandma, you can," Lily said. "I made it for you because I love you. You are the best grandma in the world."
+
+Grandma hugged Lily and kissed her cheek. She was very proud of her granddaughter. She hung the piece of art on her wall and smiled. Lily smiled too. She was happy to make Grandma happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play outside. One day, they go with their mom and dad to the forest. The forest is big and green. There are many trees and flowers and animals.
+
+Anna and Ben run and jump and laugh. They see a bird, a squirrel, a rabbit and a deer. They are happy and curious. They want to see more.
+
+"Look, Ben!" Anna says. "What is that?" She points to a big, shiny thing on the ground. It is round and smooth and has many colors.
+
+Ben runs to Anna. He picks up the thing. It is a marble. He notices that it is very beautiful. He shows it to Anna.
+
+"Wow, Ben!" Anna says. "It is so pretty! Where did it come from?"
+
+"I don't know, Anna," Ben says. "Maybe someone lost it. Maybe it is a magic marble."
+
+They look at the marble. They see their faces in it. They smile.
+
+"Can I hold it, Ben?" Anna asks.
+
+"OK, Anna," Ben says. "But be careful. Don't drop it."
+
+Anna holds the marble. She feels its weight and warmth. She notices that it sparkles in the sun.
+
+"Thank you, Ben," Anna says. "You are a good brother. I love you."
+
+"I love you too, Anna," Ben says. "You are a good sister. Let's share the marble."
+
+They hug and kiss. They put the marble in their pocket. They run back to their mom and dad. They tell them about their adventure. They are happy. They love the forest. The forest is beautiful.
+Lila and Ben like to play with blocks. They build houses, towers, bridges and cars. Sometimes they make up stories about their blocks.
+
+One day, they decide to design a big tree with blocks. They use green blocks for the leaves, brown blocks for the trunk and yellow blocks for the sun. They work hard and have fun.
+
+"Look, our tree is almost done!" Lila says. "It is very tall and pretty."
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben agrees. "But it needs something more. What can we use for the roots?"
+
+They look around and see some blue blocks. They think they can use them for the roots.
+
+"Let's try these blue blocks!" Lila says. "They are long and thin. Maybe they will fit."
+
+They take some blue blocks and put them under the trunk. They try to make them look like roots. But they are not happy with the result.
+
+"These blue blocks do not look like roots!" Ben says. "They look like water. They do not fit."
+
+"You are right," Lila says. "They do not fit. We need something else. What can we use for the roots?"
+
+They look around again and see some orange blocks. They think they can use them for the roots.
+
+"Let's try these orange blocks!" Ben says. "They are short and fat. Maybe they will fit."
+
+They take some orange blocks and put them under the trunk. They try to make them look like roots. They are happy with the result.
+
+"These orange blocks look like roots!" Lila says. "They look like carrots. They fit."
+
+"You are right," Ben says. "They fit. We did it. We designed a big tree with blocks."
+
+They smile and hug each other. They are proud of their tree. They play with it and make up more stories. They have a lot of fun.
+Anna loves to play with her model cars. She has many cars of different colors and sizes. She likes to make them race and crash on the floor. But her favorite car is a shiny red one. It is very fast and smooth. She thinks it is perfect.
+
+One day, Anna's friend Ben comes to visit. He brings his own model cars. He wants to play with Anna. He sees her shiny red car and likes it very much. He asks Anna if he can have it.
+
+"Can I have your red car, Anna? It is so shiny and nice. I want it," Ben says.
+
+"No, Ben. You cannot have my red car. It is mine. It is perfect. I love it," Anna says.
+
+"But I have many cars too. Look, I have a blue car, a green car, a yellow car. You can have any of them. Just give me your red car, please," Ben says.
+
+Anna shakes her head. She does not want to trade her red car. She holds it tight in her hand. She does not want to share it with Ben. She thinks he will break it or lose it.
+
+"Go away, Ben. You are not my friend. You are mean. You cannot play with me or my cars," Anna says.
+
+Ben feels sad and angry. He does not understand why Anna is so selfish. He thinks she is not a good friend. He does not want to play with her anymore. He takes his cars and leaves.
+
+Anna is left alone with her shiny red car. She looks at it and smiles. She thinks it is perfect. But she does not have anyone to play with. She feels lonely and bored. She wonders if she made a mistake.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play dress-up. They have many hats and coats and shoes. They also have a big box of patches. Patches are small pieces of cloth with shapes and colors. They can stick them on their clothes.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily find a rare patch in the box. It is shiny and has a star on it. They both want to wear it.
+
+"I saw it first!" Tom says. "I want to wear it on my hat!"
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Lily says. "I want to wear it on my coat!"
+
+They start to pull the patch. They are not happy.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see. She sees the rare patch and smiles.
+
+"That patch is very special," she says. "It was mine when I was little. I used to wear it on my dress. Do you know why it has a star on it?"
+
+Tom and Lily shake their heads.
+
+"Because it reminds me of you two," Mom says. "You are my stars. You are both rare and precious. You should not fight over the patch. You should share it."
+
+Tom and Lily feel sorry. They hug Mom and say sorry.
+
+"Can we take turns to wear the patch?" Tom asks.
+
+"Of course you can," Mom says. "But you have to be kind and fair. And you have to tell each other how nice you look with the patch."
+
+Tom and Lily agree. They put the patch on a pin. They take turns to wear it on their clothes. They tell each other how nice they look with the patch. They are happy. They play dress-up with the other patches. They have fun.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big cobweb on a tree. It is shiny and sticky.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Ben says. "It is a cobweb. A spider made it."
+
+"Can we touch it?" Mia asks. "It looks interesting."
+
+Ben nods. He reaches out his hand and pokes the cobweb. It feels soft and wet. He pulls his hand back and sees a thread on his finger.
+
+"Look, I have a cobweb on me!" he says. "It is like a string."
+
+Mia wants to try too. She touches the cobweb with her hand. She also gets a thread on her finger.
+
+"Me too!" she says. "It is fun."
+
+They laugh and play with the cobweb. They make shapes and patterns with the threads. They pretend they are spiders.
+
+"Can I join you?" a voice says.
+
+They turn around and see Sam. He is another friend. He has a ball in his hand.
+
+"Hi, Sam!" Ben says. "We are playing with a cobweb. It is a spider's home."
+
+"Can I see?" Sam asks. He walks over to the tree and looks at the cobweb. He thinks it is cool.
+
+"Can I touch it?" he asks.
+
+"Sure!" Mia says. "It is interesting. You can make things with it."
+
+Sam smiles. He touches the cobweb with his hand. He also gets a thread on his finger.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" he says. "Can I play with you?"
+
+"Yes, you can!" Ben and Mia say. "You can join us. We are spider friends."
+
+They all laugh and play with the cobweb. They have a good time. They are happy.
+Sara and Lily were sisters who liked to play dress-up. They had a big box of jewelry that their mom gave them. They had necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings. They liked to wear different colors and shapes.
+
+One day, they decided to play dress-up in the garden. They put on their jewelry and pretended to be princesses. They had a tea party with their dolls and stuffed animals. They talked and laughed and had fun.
+
+But then, it started to rain. The rain was very heavy and wet. Sara and Lily ran inside the house with their jewelry. They were sad because their jewelry was wet too.
+
+"Mom, mom, our jewelry is wet!" they cried. "Will it be okay?"
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She took their jewelry and put it on a towel. She said, "Don't worry, my sweet girls. Your jewelry will be okay. We just need to dry it. The rain will not hurt it. It will make it shiny and clean."
+
+She took a hairdryer and blew warm air on the jewelry. She showed Sara and Lily how the water droplets disappeared. She said, "See? Your jewelry is dry now. It is still beautiful and sparkly. You can play with it again."
+
+Sara and Lily were happy. They thanked mom and hugged her. They said, "You are the best mom ever. You are very intelligent and kind. You know how to fix everything."
+
+Mom kissed them and said, "You are the best daughters ever. You are very intelligent and creative. You know how to have fun with everything."
+Tom and Sue were twins who liked to play in the barn. There were many things to see and touch in the barn, like hay, tools, and animals. But their favorite thing was the big barrel that was high on a shelf. The barrel was full of apples that their dad had stored for the winter. They wanted to taste the apples, but they could not reach the barrel.
+
+One day, they had a plan. They found a ladder and put it near the shelf. Tom climbed the ladder and Sue held it. Tom was almost at the barrel when he heard a loud noise. It was their dad, who had come to the barn to feed the horses.
+
+"Tom, Sue, what are you doing?" he asked in a stern voice.
+
+Tom and Sue were scared. They knew they had done something wrong. Tom tried to get down from the ladder, but he slipped and fell. The barrel also fell and broke. Apples rolled everywhere.
+
+Tom and Sue cried. They had hurt themselves and wasted the apples. Their dad was angry, but also worried. He ran to them and checked if they were okay. He hugged them and said, "I'm glad you're not badly hurt, but you should never play with the barrel. It's dangerous and the apples are for later. You have to listen to me and follow the rules. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Sue nodded. They said they were sorry and they loved their dad. Their dad said he loved them too, but they had to help him clean up the mess. He also said they could have one apple each as a treat, but only after they finished their chores. Tom and Sue agreed. They learned their lesson and never played with the barrel again.
+Ben and Sam are best friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have a big box of cars and trucks in Ben's room. One day, they decide to have a race with their cars and trucks.
+
+"Let's see who has the fastest car or truck," Ben says. He picks a red car with a shiny sticker. "This is my car. It has a lot of speed."
+
+"I have a faster truck," Sam says. He picks a blue truck with a big horn. "This is my truck. It can go wild."
+
+They go to the hallway and make a line with tape. This is the start and the end of the race. They put their car and truck on the line and get ready to push them.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Ben shouts. They push their car and truck as hard as they can. The car and truck zoom along the hallway.
+
+But Sam's truck is too wild. It goes off the line and bumps into a vase. The vase falls and breaks with a loud crash.
+
+"Oh no!" Sam says. He stops his truck and runs to the vase. He sees the pieces on the floor. He feels sad and scared.
+
+Ben's car wins the race. It crosses the line and stops. Ben is happy. He sees his car and smiles. But then he hears the crash and sees the vase. He feels sorry and worried.
+
+He runs to Sam and the vase. He sees Sam's face. He says, "Are you okay, Sam?"
+
+Sam looks at Ben. He says, "I'm okay, Ben. But the vase is not okay. It was Mom's vase. She will be mad."
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He says, "Maybe we can fix it. We can use glue and tape. We can put the pieces back together."
+
+Sam nods. He says, "Okay, Ben. Let's try. Maybe Mom will not be mad."
+
+They go to Ben's room and get glue and tape. They go back to the vase and the pieces. They work hard to fix the vase. They hope Mom will not notice.
+
+But Mom does notice. She comes home and sees the vase. She sees the glue and tape. She sees the cracks and gaps. She knows what happened.
+
+She calls Ben and Sam. They come to the hallway. They see Mom and the vase. They feel nervous.
+
+Mom looks at them. She says, "What happened to the vase?"
+
+Ben and Sam look at each other. They do not know what to say. They do not want to lie. They do not want to get in trouble.
+
+They look at Mom. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We had a race with our car and truck. The truck was too wild. It bumped into the vase. The vase broke. We tried to fix it. We used glue and tape. We did our best."
+
+Mom listens to them. She sees their faces. She sees their car and truck. She sees their glue and tape. She sees their effort.
+
+She smiles. She says, "Thank you for telling me the truth. Thank you for trying to fix it. I know you did not mean to break it. I know you love to play with your car and truck. But you have to be careful. You have to respect the things in the house. You have to say sorry when you make a mistake."
+
+Ben and Sam nod. They say, "We understand, Mom. We are sorry, Mom. We will be careful, Mom. We will respect the things, Mom. We will say sorry, Mom."
+
+Mom hugs them. She says, "I love you, Ben. I love you, Sam. You are good boys. You are good friends. You can keep playing with your car and truck. But not in the hallway. And not too wild."
+
+Ben and Sam hug her back. They say, "We love you, Mom. You are a good mom. We will play with our car and truck. But not in the hallway. And not too wild."
+Sam and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is not nice. It barks and runs at them.
+
+"Help!" Sam cries. He is scared of the dog.
+
+Ben is scared too, but he wants to protect Sam. He picks up a stick and waves it at the dog. "Go away!" he shouts. "Leave us alone!"
+
+The dog stops and looks at Ben. It growls and shows its teeth. Ben feels afraid, but he does not run. He stands in front of Sam and holds the stick.
+
+The dog decides to leave. It turns and runs away. Sam and Ben are safe.
+
+"Thank you, Ben," Sam says. "You are brave. You protected me."
+
+Ben smiles, but he feels ashamed. He did not want to hurt the dog. He only wanted to scare it. He knows that dogs are not bad. They are just animals. Maybe the dog was lost or hungry or scared too.
+
+"I'm sorry, dog," Ben says softly. "I hope you find a good home."
+
+Sam hugs Ben. "You are a good friend," he says. "And a good person."
+
+They go back to playing in the park. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play with toys. They had many toys in their drawer, but they always wanted more. One day, they saw a big box in the living room. It had a sticker that said "Happy Birthday, Mom!"
+
+"What is in the box?" Tim asked.
+
+"Let's find out!" Sam said. He opened the box and saw a shiny necklace. It had many colors and sparkles.
+
+"Wow, this is pretty!" Sam said. He took the necklace out of the box and put it around his neck.
+
+"Can I try it?" Tim asked.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Sam said. He ran away with the necklace.
+
+Tim was angry. He wanted to play with the necklace too. He looked at the box and saw a card. It said "To Mom, with love from Dad". Tim had an idea. He went to the drawer and took out a toy snake. It was green and rubbery. He put the snake in the box and closed it. He thought he could replace the necklace with the snake.
+
+The next day, it was Mom's birthday. Dad gave her the box and said "Happy Birthday, my love! I hope you like your gift!"
+
+Mom smiled and opened the box. She screamed when she saw the snake. She threw the box away and ran to the bathroom. Dad was confused and angry. He looked at the box and saw the snake. He knew it was a toy, but he did not know who put it there.
+
+He went to the boys' room and saw Sam with the necklace. He asked him where he got it. Sam said he found it in the box. Dad asked him where the card was. Sam said he did not see any card. Dad knew Sam was lying. He took the necklace from him and said "You are in big trouble, young man! You stole Mom's gift and replaced it with a snake! How could you do that?"
+
+Sam started to cry. He said he was sorry. He said he liked the necklace and wanted to keep it. He said he did not know it was for Mom. He said he did not mean to make her scream.
+
+Dad did not believe him. He said he was very disappointed in him. He said he had to go and apologize to Mom. He said he had to give back the necklace. He said he had to go to his room and think about what he did. He said he could not play with any toys for a week.
+
+Sam felt very sad. He wished he did not take the necklace. He wished he did not replace it with the snake. He wished he did not make Mom and Dad angry. He wished he could play with Tim. But Tim was also angry with him. He said he was a bad brother. He said he did not want to play with him anymore. He said he hated him.
+
+Sam had no one to play with. He had no toys to play with. He had no fun to have. He had a bad day. He had a bad ending.
+Lisa loves to play with her pastels. She likes to draw flowers and animals and houses on big sheets of paper. She also likes to pretend that she is a waitress and serve her pastels to her dolls and teddy bears. She says, "Hello, welcome to Lisa's cafe. What would you like to eat today?" and then she gives them a pastel of their choice.
+
+One day, Lisa invites her friend Ben to play with her. Ben likes to play with cars and trucks and trains. He does not like to play with pastels. He says, "Pastels are boring and messy. I want to play with something else." Lisa feels sad and angry. She says, "Pastels are fun and pretty. You are not nice. You can't play with me."
+
+Ben and Lisa start to argue. They raise their voices and make faces at each other. They do not listen to each other. They do not share their toys. They do not have fun.
+
+Lisa's mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees Ben and Lisa fighting. She says, "Stop, stop, stop. What is going on here? Why are you not playing nicely?" She sits down with them and talks to them. She says, "You are both good friends. You can like different things and still play together. You can take turns and try new things. You can respect each other's choices and feelings. You can say sorry and hug each other."
+
+Ben and Lisa listen to Lisa's mom. They realize that they were rude and mean. They say sorry and hug each other. They decide to play with both pastels and cars. They draw a big road with pastels and drive their cars on it. They also serve their cars some pastels as snacks. They laugh and have fun. They feel comfortable and happy. They are good friends again.
+Lily and Ben were helping Mom to decorate the big tree for Christmas. They had a box of shiny ornaments that Mom said were very old and special. Lily liked the red ones and Ben liked the blue ones. They took turns to hang them on the branches.
+
+"Be careful, kids," Mom said. "These ornaments are fragile. They can break if you drop them or move them too much."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They wanted to make the tree look pretty and make Mom happy. They were careful with the ornaments and tried not to touch them after they hung them.
+
+But then, Ben saw a big star at the top of the box. He wanted to put it on the top of the tree. He reached for it, but he was too short. He stood on his toes and stretched his arm, but he still could not reach it.
+
+"Let me help you, Ben," Lily said. She was a little taller than Ben. She moved closer to him and lifted him up by his waist. Ben grabbed the star and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," he said. "Now I can put the star on the tree."
+
+But as he lifted the star, he was careless. He bumped into a branch and made some ornaments shake. One of them, a blue one, fell off the tree and hit the floor. It broke into many pieces with a loud noise.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben said together. They looked at the broken ornament and felt sad. They knew Mom would be upset.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw the broken ornament and sighed.
+
+"What did you do, kids?" she asked. "I told you to be careful with the ornaments. They are not toys. They are memories."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry. They did not mean to break the ornament. They wanted to make Mom happy, not sad.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," they said. "We wanted to put the star on the top of the tree. But we were careless and we made the ornament fall."
+
+Mom looked at them and saw their sad faces. She knew they did not do it on purpose. She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"It's okay, kids," she said. "I know you did not mean to break the ornament. Accidents happen. The star is very pretty. You can put it on the top of the tree. But please, be more careful next time. The ornaments are precious, but you are more precious to me."
+Lily and Ben were playing in their room. They liked to make forts with their toys and blankets. They used a big sheet to cover their bed and pretend it was a castle.
+
+"Look, I found a sword!" Ben said, holding a wooden stick. "I am the king of the castle and you are the queen."
+
+Lily smiled and took a plastic crown from her dresser. "And I have a crown. We are the best king and queen ever."
+
+They climbed under the sheet and pretended to have a feast. They ate cookies and drank juice from their cups. They laughed and told stories.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It sounded like a growl. They looked at each other and felt scared.
+
+"What was that?" Lily whispered.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a monster?" Ben said.
+
+They peeked out from the sheet and saw a big, hairy thing on the floor. It had four legs, a long tail and a wet nose. It was their dog, Rex.
+
+"Rex!" they shouted. "You scared us!"
+
+Rex wagged his tail and licked their faces. He was happy to see them. He wanted to play too.
+
+They hugged Rex and laughed. They were not scared anymore. They discovered that the hairy thing was their friend.
+
+They invited Rex to join their fort. They gave him a cookie and a toy. They played together until it was time for bed. They had a lot of fun. They loved their dog and their sheet castle.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with dolls and cars. But today, they have a problem. Anna wants to play with the pink doll, and Ben wants to play with the blue car. They both think their toy is better.
+
+"I have an opinion. The pink doll is more fun. She can talk and sing and dance. The blue car is boring. It can only go vroom vroom." Anna says.
+
+"No, you are wrong. I have an opinion too. The blue car is more fun. It can go fast and do tricks and jump. The pink doll is silly. She can only say the same things over and over." Ben says.
+
+They start to argue. They raise their voices. They pull and tug at the toys. They are restless. They do not want to share or take turns.
+
+"Give me the pink doll!" Anna shouts.
+
+"Give me the blue car!" Ben shouts.
+
+They are so angry that they forget to be careful. Anna swings the pink doll at Ben. Ben swings the blue car at Anna. They strike each other in the face. They both cry out in pain. They drop the toys. They have bruises and tears.
+
+They look at each other. They are not friends anymore. They are enemies. They run away from each other. They do not want to play together ever again. They are sad and lonely.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with some rocks and grass. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go up the hill!" Ben said.
+
+"OK, Ben, but be careful. The rocks are sharp and the grass is slippery," Lily said.
+
+They started to climb the hill, holding hands. They stepped on the rocks and the grass, but they were clumsy. They slipped and fell many times. They got some scratches and bruises, but they did not cry. They wanted to reach the top of the hill.
+
+They were almost there, when Lily saw something shiny in the grass. She let go of Ben's hand and ran to it. She picked it up and smiled. It was a spike. A spike was a metal thing with a pointy end. Lily liked spikes. She had a necklace with a spike on it.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a spike!" Lily said, holding it up.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that's a cool spike!" Ben said, running to her. "Can I see it?"
+
+Lily nodded and gave the spike to Ben. Ben looked at it and touched it. He liked spikes too. He had a belt with spikes on it.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Ben was not careful with the spike. He poked himself in the finger with the pointy end. He felt a sharp pain and dropped the spike. He started to cry.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The spike hurt me!" Ben said, holding his finger.
+
+Lily heard Ben cry and ran to him. She saw his finger bleeding. She felt sorry for Ben. She hugged him and said,
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. The spike was not nice. It was mean. It should not hurt you."
+
+She took a tissue from her pocket and wrapped it around Ben's finger. She kissed it and said,
+
+"There, there, Ben. It will be OK. The tissue will make it better."
+
+Ben stopped crying and smiled at Lily. He said,
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. You make me feel better."
+
+They hugged and said,
+
+"We are friends. We share spikes. We help each other."
+
+They picked up the spike and put it in Lily's pocket. They decided to go down the hill and find their mom. They wanted to show her the spike and tell her their story. They held hands and walked down the hill, happy and brave. They had a good adventure.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the kitchen when Mom is busy. One day, they see a big jar of salt on the counter. They want to taste it.
+
+"Let's try some salt," Anna whispers to Ben. "It looks like snow."
+
+"Okay," Ben whispers back. "But we have to be quiet. Mom will be mad if she sees us."
+
+They climb on a chair and open the jar. They take a pinch of salt and put it in their mouths. They make a funny face.
+
+"Yuck!" Anna says. "It's not snow. It's very salty."
+
+"Yuck!" Ben agrees. "It's not good. It makes me thirsty."
+
+They spit out the salt and look for some water. They see a glass on the table. They think it is water. They drink it.
+
+"Yuck!" Anna says again. "It's not water. It's lemon juice."
+
+"Yuck!" Ben says too. "It's not water. It's sour."
+
+They make another funny face. They hear Mom coming.
+
+"Quick, hide the salt!" Anna whispers.
+
+"Quick, hide the glass!" Ben whispers.
+
+They put the jar and the glass under the chair. They jump off and pretend to play with their toys.
+
+Mom enters the kitchen. She sees their faces.
+
+"What have you been doing?" she asks.
+
+"Nothing, Mom," Anna and Ben say.
+
+Mom smiles. She knows they are lying. She sees the salt and the lemon juice under the chair.
+
+She shakes her head. She gives them a hug.
+
+"Next time, ask me before you taste something," she says. "Some things are not good for you."
+
+"Okay, Mom," Anna and Ben say.
+
+They are sorry. They love Mom. They promise to be good.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to go to the market with their mom. They liked to see the fruits, the flowers, and the toys that the people sold. But they did not like to share or wait for their turn. They always wanted to have everything they saw.
+
+One day, mom took them to the market and told them they could each choose one thing to buy. Anna saw a big red balloon and ran to get it. Ben saw a shiny car and ran to get it. But they both wanted the same thing. They started to fight and pull the balloon and the car from each other.
+
+"Stop it, Anna and Ben!" mom said. "You are being spoiled and rude. You can't have everything you want. You have to share and be nice."
+
+But Anna and Ben did not listen. They kept fighting and screaming. The people at the market looked at them and shook their heads. They made a lot of noise and trouble.
+
+Then, something bad happened. The balloon popped and the car broke. Anna and Ben were left with nothing. They started to cry and say sorry to mom. But it was too late. Mom was very angry and sad. She took them home and did not buy them anything.
+
+Anna and Ben learned a hard lesson that day. They realized they had been spoiled and rude. They wished they had listened to mom and shared and been nice. They promised to be better next time they went to the market.
+Sara liked to spin. She spun on the grass, on the floor, on her chair. She spun so fast that she felt dizzy and happy. One day, she saw a sailor at the park. He wore a blue hat and a white shirt. He had a big bag with him.
+
+"Hello, sailor," Sara said. "What is in your bag?"
+
+"Hello, little girl," the sailor said. "In my bag, I have a toy boat. Do you want to see it?"
+
+"Yes, please," Sara said. She liked boats. She followed the sailor to the pond. He took out the boat and put it on the water. It was a red boat with a white sail. It looked very pretty.
+
+"Wow, your boat is nice," Sara said. "Can I play with it?"
+
+"Sure, you can," the sailor said. "But be careful. Don't spin it too much. It is a regular boat, not a spinning boat. If you spin it too much, it might tip over and sink."
+
+"OK, I will be careful," Sara said. She took the boat and pushed it gently on the water. She made it go left and right, but not spin. She had fun playing with the boat. The sailor smiled and watched her.
+
+Sara was a good girl. She did not spin the boat. She played with it for a long time. Then she gave it back to the sailor and said thank you.
+
+"You're welcome," the sailor said. "You are a good spinner and a good sailor. Maybe one day, you can have your own boat and sail on the sea."
+
+Sara liked that idea. She waved goodbye to the sailor and went back to her mom. She told her mom about the boat and the sailor. She said she wanted to be a sailor when she grew up. Her mom hugged her and said she was proud of her. Sara was happy. She spun one more time and then went home.
+Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play and learn together. They have one big brain, Mom says. They can do many things with their brain. They can count, sing, draw, and read.
+
+One day, they go to the park with Mom. They see a big slide. They want to try it. But there is a problem. The slide has two sides, and they are far apart. Tim and Kim cannot hold hands on the slide. They feel sad.
+
+Mom has an idea. She gives them a long scarf. She says, "This is a magic scarf. It can unite you on the slide. You can each hold one end of the scarf, and then you will be together. You are lucky to have this scarf. And you are lucky to have each other."
+
+Tim and Kim smile. They thank Mom. They take the scarf and run to the slide. They hold one end of the scarf each. They sit on the slide. They slide down fast. They feel the wind and the sun. They laugh and shout. They are happy.
+
+They do it again and again. They have fun with the scarf and the slide. They use their brain to make a game. They are twins. They are united. They are lucky.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. The park has a big hill. They can see many things from the top of the hill. They call it the view.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their moms. They run up the hill and look at the view. They see cars, trees, birds, and houses.
+
+"Look, Ben, there is your house!" Lily says. She points to a blue house with a red roof.
+
+"Yes, that is my house. It is very organized. My mom likes to clean and tidy everything." Ben says. He is proud of his house.
+
+"Look, Lily, there is your house!" Ben says. He points to a yellow house with a green roof.

+
+"Can we go on the slide, Mom?" Mia asks.
+
+"Yes, but be careful. And stay with Tom," Mia's mom says.
+
+Tom and Mia run to the slide. They wait for their turn. They see some other kids on the slide. Some kids are nice. Some kids are mean. One mean kid pushes Tom. Tom falls down. He hurts his knee. He cries.
+
+"Hey, stop that! That's not nice!" Mia says to the mean kid.
+
+She helps Tom get up. She hugs him. She says, "Are you okay, Tom?"

+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big maze made of bushes and flowers. They wanted to try it and find the way out.
+
+"Let's go, Ben!" Lily said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK, Lily!" Ben said. "But we have to stay together. The maze is big and we might get lost."
+
+They ran into the maze and followed the paths. They saw many colors and shapes, but they did not see the exit. They turned left and right, but they only found more bushes and flowers.
+
+After a while, they felt dizzy and tired. They did not know where they were or how to get out. They started to cry.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shouted. "We are lost in the maze!"
+
+No one heard them. They felt scared and alone.
+
+Then, they heard a splash. They looked around and saw a fountain with water. The water was sparkling and cool. They ran to the fountain and drank some water. They felt better.
+
+They also saw a sign next to the fountain. It said: "This way to the exit." They followed the sign and soon they saw the end of the maze. They were happy and relieved.
+
+They ran out of the maze and hugged each other. They also saw their mom and dad waiting for them. They were worried and angry.
+
+"Where were you, Ben and Lily?" mom asked. "We were looking for you everywhere. You should not go into the maze without us. It is dangerous and you could get hurt."
+
+"We are sorry, mom and dad," Ben and Lily said. "We wanted to have fun, but we got lost and dizzy. We learned our lesson. We will not go into the maze again without you."
+
+Mom and dad hugged them and forgave them. They also praised them for finding the fountain and the sign. They said they were brave and smart.
+
+Ben and Lily felt happy and loved. They learned that the maze was not as fun as they thought, and that they should always listen to their parents and stay together. They also learned that water can help them when they are thirsty and dizzy. They thanked the fountain and the sign for helping them. They went home and had a nice nap.
+Tommy was a little boy who loved to watch TV. He liked to see the famous people who sang, danced, and made jokes. He wanted to be like them one day. He thought they were very happy and had many friends.
+
+One day, his mom told him they were going to a big city. She said they would see a show with some of the famous people he liked. Tommy was very excited. He packed his bag with his favorite toys and clothes. He could not wait to get on the plane.
+
+When they arrived at the city, they took a taxi to their hotel. Tommy looked out the window and saw many tall buildings, bright lights, and noisy cars. He felt a little scared. He missed his home and his friends.
+
+His mom took him to a restaurant for dinner. She said they would have beef, which was Tommy's favorite food. But when the food came, Tommy did not like it. It was too spicy, too chewy, and too big. He wanted his mom to make him a sandwich instead. He started to cry.
+
+His mom tried to calm him down. She said, "Tommy, I know you are not used to this place. But we are here to have fun and see new things. You should try to enjoy the food and the show. Maybe you will learn something new and make some new friends. Remember, the famous people you admire are also people like us. They have feelings, dreams, and challenges. They are not better or happier than you. They just work hard and share their talents with others. You can do that too, in your own way."
+
+Tommy listened to his mom. He wiped his tears and took a bite of the beef. It was not so bad after all. He smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. You are right. I want to have fun and see new things. And I want to work hard and share my talents too. Maybe I can sing a song for the famous people at the show. Do you think they will like it?"
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "I'm sure they will, Tommy. You have a beautiful voice and a big heart. I'm very proud of you."
+
+The moral value of the story is: Be open to new experiences and appreciate your own gifts. Don't compare yourself to others or envy their fame. Happiness comes from within.

+
+But then, something bad happened. The car made a loud noise and stopped. The driver got out and looked at the car. He said, "Oh no, the car is broken. We need to wait for help."
+
+Anna and Ben were scared and sad. They wanted to see grandma soon. They asked their mom and dad, "What can we do?"
+
+Their mom and dad said, "Don't worry, we will see grandma soon. But now, we need to be patient and kind. We can help the driver by unpacking our bags and sharing our things with him. He is cold and hungry. He needs our help."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They unpacked their bags and gave the driver their jackets, snacks and books. The driver was very happy and thanked them. He said, "You are very good and generous children. You made me feel better. Thank you."

+Anna and Ben smiled. They learned that being patient and kind is better than being angry and selfish. They had a normal and fun day with grandma. They played, read and ate cake. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were animals. Ben was a lion and Lily was a monkey. They roared and chattered and jumped on the furniture.
+
+"Stop, stop!" Mom said. "You are making a mess. The furniture is not for jumping. And you are too loud. You will wake up the baby."
+
+Ben and Lily did not listen. They kept playing. They found a big pillow and dragged it to the floor. They wanted to fill it with other things and make it a nest.
+
+They took some books, some toys, some clothes and some blankets. They stuffed them inside the pillow. The pillow became very big and lumpy.
+
+"Look, look!" Ben said. "We made a nest. It is cozy and warm. We can sleep here."
+
+Lily agreed. She climbed on the pillow and curled up. Ben followed her. They snuggled together.
+
+But they did not see the hairy thing that was sleeping under the pillow. It was Max, the dog. He was not happy. He felt something poking and pushing him. He woke up and barked.
+
+"Ruff, ruff!" Max said. "Get off me! This is my nest. You are not animals. You are children. Go away!"
+
+Ben and Lily were scared. They jumped off the pillow and ran to Mom. They hugged her and said sorry.
+
+Mom was not angry. She smiled and said. "It's okay. You were just having fun. But next time, please be careful. And don't fill the pillow with stuff. It is not good for Max. He needs his space."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They said sorry to Max too. They gave him a pat and a treat. Then they helped Mom clean up the mess. They put everything back where it belonged. They learned their lesson. They decided to play something else.

+
+Tom and Mia look at each other. They do not know what to say. They feel sorry.
+

+
+"You have to promise us that you will never play with the bubbles in the sink again," Dad says.
+
+"Okay, Dad, we promise," Tom and Mia say.
+
+"Good, kids, we are glad you promise," Mom says.
+
+"Can we still play with the bubbles outside?" Tom asks.
+
+"Yes, you can, but only with our permission and supervision," Dad says.
+
+"Okay, Dad, we understand," Mia says.
+
+Mom and Dad hug Tom and Mia. They are proud of them. They are good kids. They keep their promises.

+Sara was very happy. She was going to see the palace with her mom and dad. She had seen the palace in books and on TV, but she had never seen it for real. She wondered how big it was and who lived there.

+
+Sara nodded. She was excited. She wanted to see the palace.
+
+They got off the bus and walked for a while. Sara held mom's hand and dad's hand. She looked around and saw more people and cars and shops. She saw a big museum and a big church and a big square. She saw many things, but she did not see the palace.
+
+"Where is the palace, dad?" Sara asked.
+
+"It's right there, honey," dad said. He pointed to a big building in front of them. "That's the palace. Do you recognize it?"
+
+Sara looked at the building. It was big and white and had a big gate and a long driveway and many windows and flags. It looked like the palace in the books and on TV, but it did not look like a palace to Sara. It looked like a normal building.
+
+"That's the palace?" Sara asked. She was confused. She did not feel happy. She felt disappointed.
+
+"Yes, that's the palace," mom said. "It's very beautiful and important. Many people come to see it. Do you want to go inside and see more?"
+
+Sara shook her head. She did not want to go inside. She did not want to see more. She wanted to see a real palace. A palace that looked like a palace. A palace that was not normal.
+
+"Can we go back to the park?" Sara asked. "I liked the park. It had flowers and trees and a pond. It was more fun than the palace."
+
+Mom and dad smiled. They understood. They did not mind. They took Sara back to the park. They played and laughed and had a picnic. Sara was happy. She forgot about the palace. She liked the park. It was her palace.

+Tom and Anna were playing in the yard. They had a lot of toys, but they both wanted the same one. It was a saw that made noise when you pushed a button.

+
+"Stop it, both of you!" Mom said. "Why are you fighting over the saw?"
+
+"Because I want it!" Tom said.
+
+"Me too!" Anna said.
+
+Mom shook her head. "You can't both have the saw. You have to share. You have other toys to play with. How about you take turns with the saw?"
+
+Tom and Anna did not like that idea. They both wanted the saw all the time.
+
+"No, I want it now!" Tom said. He tried to pull the saw harder.
+
+"No, I want it now!" Anna said. She tried to pull the saw harder too.
+
+Mom sighed. She took the saw from their hands. She looked at them with a stern face.
+
+"That's enough. You are both being very rude and selfish. You are not sharing. You are not listening. You are demanding the saw. That is not nice. You have to learn to play together and be kind. If you can't do that, you can't have the saw at all. I will put it away until you can behave better."
+
+Tom and Anna were shocked. They did not want to lose the saw. They looked at each other and felt sorry. They realized they were being mean to each other and to Mom.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Tom said.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Anna said.
+
+"Sorry, Tom," Anna said.
+
+"Sorry, Anna," Tom said.
+
+They hugged each other and Mom. Mom smiled and hugged them back.
+
+"That's better. I'm glad you are sorry. Now, do you want to play nicely with the saw and take turns?"
+
+"Yes, Mom," Tom and Anna said.
+
+"Good. Here you go. You can have the saw for five minutes each. Then you have to give it to the other one. OK?"
+
+"OK, Mom," Tom and Anna said.
+
+They took the saw and played with it. They pushed the button and made noise. They pretended to cut wood and build things. They had fun. They gave the saw to each other when it was their turn. They said thank you and you're welcome. They did not fight. They did not demand. They shared.
+
+Mom watched them and smiled. She was proud of them. She thought they were growing up. She went inside to make a snack for them. She hoped they would like it. She hoped they would not fight over it. She hoped they would share. She hoped they would be happy.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big egg in the grass. It is long and blue and shiny.
+
+"Wow, look at this egg!" Lily says. "It is so pretty. I want to keep it."
+
+"No, I want to keep it!" Tom says. "It is mine. I saw it first."
+
+They start to pull the egg. They are not happy. They are angry.
+
+A bird flies down from a tree. It is the egg's mom. She is sad. She wants her egg back.
+
+"Please, give me my egg," the bird says. "It is very value to me. It is my baby. I love it."
+
+Lily and Tom stop pulling. They feel sorry. They did not know it was a baby.
+
+"Sorry, bird," Lily says. "We did not mean to hurt your egg. Here, you can have it."

+
+The teacher hears the noise and comes to see what happened. She sees the blocks on the floor and Sara and Ben looking unhappy.
+
+"What happened here?" the teacher asks.
+
+"Sara took all the blocks and did not share. I wanted some blocks for my train. I pushed her tower and it fell down," Ben says.
+
+"Ben, that was not nice. You should not push other people's things. You should ask nicely and wait for your turn. Sara, you should not take all the blocks and say go away. You should share and play together. Blocks are for everyone. Do you understand?" the teacher says.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They feel sorry. They say sorry to each other.
+
+"Can we play together?" Sara asks Ben.
+
+"OK. Let's make a tower and a train. We can use all the colors. I like brown blocks. Do you?" Ben asks Sara.

+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and slide and swing. They also liked to blow their whistles. They had red and blue whistles that made loud noises.
+
+But Sam did not like their whistles. He was a big boy who wanted to spoil their fun. He came to the park and saw Tom and Lily. He ran to them and grabbed their whistles. He said, "Give me those! You are too noisy!"
+
+Tom and Lily were scared and sad. They wanted their whistles back. They said, "No, Sam! Those are ours! Give them back, please!"
+
+But Sam did not listen. He laughed and ran away with their whistles. He threw them in the trash can. He said, "Ha ha! Now you have no whistles! Go away!"
+
+Tom and Lily cried. They did not know what to do. They looked at the trash can. It was dark and dirty. They did not want to go there. They wished they had their whistles back.
+
+Then they saw a man. He was a nice man who worked in the park. He saw what Sam did. He came to Tom and Lily. He said, "Don't cry, kids. I saw what happened. That was very mean of Sam. He should not spoil your fun. Here, I have something for you."
+
+He gave them two new whistles. They were yellow and green and shiny. They made happy noises. Tom and Lily smiled. They said, "Thank you, sir! You are very kind. We like these whistles. They are better than the old ones."
+
+The man said, "You're welcome, kids. Enjoy your whistles. And don't let Sam bother you. He is a bully who needs to learn how to share and be nice."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They hugged the man. They said, "We will, sir. Thank you again. You made our day."
+
+They blew their whistles and ran to play. They had fun in the park. They did not see Sam again. They did not care. They had new whistles and a new friend. They were happy.
+Tom and Anna were playing with their blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. But Tom was not careful. He knocked over Anna's tower and made her cry.
+
+"Sorry, Anna. I did not mean to do that. Are you okay?" Tom said.
+
+Anna was angry. She pointed at her knee. It had a red spot and it hurt. "You made me fall and hurt my knee. It is bleeding. I need a bandage," she said.
+
+Tom felt bad. He wanted to help Anna. He looked around and saw a bandage on the table. It was big and white and had a picture of a star on it. He took it and ran to Anna.
+
+"Here, Anna. This is a bandage. It will make your knee better. Let me put it on you," he said.
+
+He tried to wrap the bandage around Anna's knee, but it was too big. It did not fit. It was loose and floppy and fell off.
+
+"Tom, this bandage is not good. It does not fit. It does not stay on my knee. I need a smaller bandage," Anna said.
+
+Tom was confused. He did not know what to do. He looked around again and saw a sock on the floor. It was small and pink and had a picture of a flower on it. He took it and ran to Anna.
+
+"Here, Anna. This is a sock. It can be a bandage too. Let me put it on you," he said.
+
+He tried to pull the sock over Anna's knee, but it was too small. It did not fit. It was tight and stretchy and hurt.
+
+"Tom, this sock is not good. It does not fit. It is too small. It makes my knee hurt more. I need a better bandage," Anna said.
+
+Tom was sad. He did not know how to help Anna. He started to cry too.
+
+Mom heard Tom and Anna crying. She came to see what was wrong. She saw their blocks and their bandage and their sock. She understood what happened.
+
+"Tom, Anna, what is going on? Why are you crying?" Mom said.
+
+Tom and Anna told Mom what happened. They said they were sorry and they hugged each other.
+
+Mom smiled. She was calm. She knew how to help Anna. She took a clean cloth and some water and some tape. She cleaned Anna's knee and put the cloth on it. She taped it with the tape. She made a bandage that fit.
+
+"There, Anna. This is a good bandage. It fits. It will keep your knee clean and safe. It will heal soon. How do you feel?" Mom said.
+
+Anna felt better. She looked at her bandage and smiled. "Thank you, Mom. This is a good bandage. It fits. It does not hurt. I feel better," she said.
+
+Tom felt better too. He looked at Anna and smiled. "I am sorry, Anna. I am glad you feel better. Can we play again?" he said.
+
+Anna nodded. She was not angry anymore. She was happy. "Yes, Tom. We can play again. But be careful. Do not knock over my tower," she said.
+
+Mom hugged Tom and Anna. She was proud of them. They were good kids. They learned to say sorry and to forgive. They learned to help each other. They learned to play nicely. She gave them some cookies and milk. They ate them and played with their blocks. They had fun. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a lot of fog in the air. The fog is white and soft. It makes everything look blurry.
+
+Lily and Ben think the fog is fun. They run and jump in the fog. They pretend they are in a magic land. They laugh and have a good time.
+
+But then, Lily sees a small bird on the ground. The bird is hurt. It has a broken wing. Lily feels sad for the bird. She cares about the bird. She wants to help the bird.
+
+She calls Ben and shows him the bird. Ben feels sad too. He cares about the bird as well. He says they should take the bird to the vet. The vet is a person who helps animals.
+
+Lily and Ben pick up the bird gently. They wrap it in a scarf. They walk to the vet. They hope the vet can fix the bird's wing. They hope the bird can fly again.
+
+Lily and Ben are fair friends. They share their toys and snacks. They play nicely and kindly. They also care about other living things. They are good to the bird and the fog. They are happy and proud.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with many leaves and branches. They wanted to climb the tree and see the birds and the sky.
+
+"Can we climb the tree, Mommy?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful and don't go too high," Mommy said.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the tree and started to climb. They found a chubby squirrel on a branch. The squirrel had a big nut in its mouth. It looked at them with its bright eyes.
+
+"Hello, squirrel," Ben said. "Can we be your friends?"
+
+The squirrel shook its head and made a loud noise. It did not want to share its nut or its branch. It wanted to be alone.
+
+"Go away, go away!" the squirrel said. "This is my tree, my nut, my branch. You don't belong here!"
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad and scared. They did not like the squirrel's words. They climbed down the tree and ran back to Mommy.
+
+"Mommy, the squirrel was mean to us," Lily said. "It said we don't belong in the tree."
+
+Mommy hugged them and kissed them. She said, "Don't worry, my loves. You belong with me, and I belong with you. We are a family, and we love each other. The squirrel may have its tree, but we have each other."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and hugged Mommy. They felt happy and safe. They did not need the tree or the squirrel. They had Mommy and each other.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the backyard. They had a big box of toys. Ben liked to build things with blocks and tools. Lily liked to dress up dolls and animals.
+
+"Look, I made a house!" Ben said. He showed Lily his blocks. He had a hammer in his hand. He used it to tap the blocks together.
+
+"That's nice, Ben," Lily said. She was not very interested in blocks. She had an adorable bunny in her arms. She put a hat and a scarf on it. "Look, my bunny is warm and pretty!"
+
+Ben looked at Lily's bunny. He wanted to play with it. He put down his hammer and reached for the bunny.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Lily said. She pulled the bunny away from Ben. "You have your own toys!"
+
+Ben was angry. He wanted the bunny. He grabbed his hammer and swung it at the bunny.
+
+"Stop!" Lily shouted. She was scared. She hugged the bunny tight.
+
+The hammer hit the bunny's hat. The hat flew off. The bunny's ears popped out. They were long and floppy.
+
+Ben and Lily stared at the bunny. They saw its ears. They saw its face. It was not a real bunny. It was a toy bunny that could open and close its eyes.
+
+"Wow!" Ben said. He dropped his hammer. He touched the bunny's ears. "It can open its eyes!"
+
+"Cool!" Lily said. She smiled. She pressed the bunny's paw. The bunny made a sound. It said, "I love you!"
+
+Ben and Lily laughed. They forgot their fight. They decided to share the bunny. They took turns holding it and making it talk. They played happily with the adorable toy bunny.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Sara was a lion and Ben was a monkey. They roared and jumped and laughed.
+
+But soon they felt tired and hungry. Their mom came and said, "It's time for lunch and nap, my little ones. Come and eat some delicious soup and bread." Sara and Ben nodded and followed their mom to the kitchen. They liked soup and bread, especially with cheese and butter.
+
+They sat at the table and ate their lunch. They drank some milk and said, "Thank you, mom, for the yummy food." Their mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, my sweeties. Now, let's go to your room and take a nap. You need some rest after playing so hard."
+
+Sara and Ben went to their room and got into their beds. They had their favorite blankets and stuffed animals with them. Sara had a pink bunny and Ben had a blue bear. They hugged them and closed their eyes.
+
+But Ben was not sleepy. He wanted to play some more. He whispered to Sara, "Hey, Sara, are you asleep?" Sara opened one eye and said, "No, Ben, I'm not asleep. But mom said we have to nap. It's the truth." Ben said, "But napping is boring. Let's play a game. I have an idea." Sara said, "What is it, Ben?" Ben said, "Let's pretend we are asleep, but we are not. We can make funny faces and noises when mom is not looking. It will be fun." Sara thought for a moment and said, "OK, Ben, let's do it. But we have to be quiet and careful. We don't want mom to find out." Ben said, "Don't worry, Sara, we are smart. Mom will never know." They giggled and agreed.
+
+They pretended to be asleep, but they were not. They made funny faces and noises when mom was not looking. They stuck out their tongues and crossed their eyes. They snored and farted and burped. They thought it was hilarious.
+
+But mom was not fooled. She heard their noises and saw their faces. She was not angry, but she was amused. She decided to play along. She tiptoed to their room and said, "Oh, look at my little ones. They are sleeping so peacefully. They are so cute and quiet." She kissed them on their cheeks and said, "I love you, Sara and Ben. Sweet dreams." She pretended to leave, but she stayed at the door.
+
+Sara and Ben heard their mom and stopped their game. They felt guilty and silly. They looked at each other and said, "Oops, mom knows. We are sorry, mom. We were just playing." Mom said, "I know, my darlings. I was playing too. But now it's really time for nap. You need some rest after playing so hard." Sara and Ben said, "OK, mom. We will nap for real. We love you, mom. Good night." Mom said, "I love you too, my sweeties. Good night." She closed the door and left.
+
+Sara and Ben snuggled with their blankets and stuffed animals. They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of lions and monkeys and soup and bread. They were happy and cozy. They napped for real.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big box of clay and some sticks. They made clay balls and put them on the sticks. They pretended they were guns and they could shoot.
+
+"Bang, bang, bang!" Lily said, pointing her stick at Ben. "I got you, you are a bad guy!"
+
+"No, you missed, you are a bad shot!" Ben said, pointing his stick at Lily. "I got you, you are a bad girl!"
+
+They laughed and ran around, shooting their clay balls at each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Then, they saw a bird on the fence. It was red and blue and yellow. It was brilliant. They stopped shooting and looked at the bird.
+
+"Wow, what a pretty bird!" Lily said. "I wish I could touch it."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. "But it will fly away if we go near it."
+
+They decided to make a clay bird instead. They used their clay and sticks and some leaves and feathers they found. They worked hard and made a brilliant clay bird. They put it on the fence next to the real bird.
+
+"Look, we made a friend for the bird!" Lily said.
+
+The real bird looked at the clay bird. It tilted its head and chirped. Then, it flew away.
+
+"Bye, bye, bird!" Ben said.
+
+"Bye, bye, bird!" Lily said.
+
+They smiled and hugged their clay bird. They were happy.
+Sam and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a big man with a wide mustache and a sack on his back. He was walking to a bench.
+
+"Who is he?" Sam asked Mia.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he is a pirate. He has a sack of treasure," Mia said.
+
+They decided to follow him and see what was in his sack. They hid behind a tree and waited for him to open it.
+
+The man sat on the bench and opened his sack. He took out a sandwich, a banana, and a bottle of water. He started to eat his lunch.
+
+Sam and Mia were disappointed. They thought he had something more exciting in his sack.
+
+"Let's go and say hello. Maybe he will share his food with us," Sam said.
+
+"OK, but be nice. He might be scary," Mia said.
+
+They walked to the bench and smiled at the man.
+
+"Hello, sir. We like your mustache. It is very wide," Sam said.
+
+The man looked at them and smiled back.
+
+"Hello, kids. Thank you. I like your hats. They are very colorful," he said.
+
+He offered them a piece of his sandwich and a bite of his banana.
+
+"Would you like some lunch? I have plenty," he said.
+
+Sam and Mia nodded and sat next to him. They ate and talked with the man. He told them he was a gardener and he had a sack of tools. He showed them his shovel, his rake, and his scissors.
+
+They learned that he liked to plant flowers, cut grass, and trim bushes. He said he worked in many parks and gardens.
+
+They thought he had a very interesting job. They asked him many questions and he answered them kindly.
+
+They finished their lunch and thanked the man for his food and his stories.
+
+They said goodbye and went back to their game.
+
+They agreed that the man with the wide mustache and the sack was very nice and not scary at all.
+Lily liked to create things with her toys. She had many toys, like blocks, dolls, cars and animals. She made houses, roads, farms and families with them. She had fun playing with her toys.
+
+One day, Lily saw a new toy in her room. It was a small infant. It was soft and warm and made noises. Lily was curious. She touched the infant and felt its hair. It was very hairy. Lily smiled. She liked the infant.
+
+Lily decided to create a game with the infant. She took some of her toys and put them around the infant. She pretended that the infant was a king and the toys were his friends. She gave the infant a crown and a scepter. She made the toys bow and talk to the infant. She said, "Hello, King Infant. You are very hairy and nice. We are your friends. We want to play with you."
+
+The infant looked at Lily and the toys. It did not understand what Lily was saying. It did not know what a king was. It did not care about the crown and the scepter. It just wanted to sleep and eat and cuddle. It yawned and closed its eyes.
+
+Lily did not mind. She thought the infant was cute and funny. She cuddled the infant and sang a song. She said, "You are my new toy, King Infant. I will create many games with you. I love you, hairy baby."
+Lily wanted to lead the game. She liked to tell her friends what to do. She said, "Let's play school. I will be the teach. You will be the kids. Sit on the floor and listen to me."
+
+But her friends did not want to play school. They wanted to play other games. Ben wanted to play cars. He said, "No, Lily. School is boring. I want to zoom my car. Vroom, vroom!" He made his car go fast on the rug.
+
+Anna wanted to play dolls. She said, "No, Lily. School is too hard. I want to hug my doll. She is so soft and pretty." She cuddled her doll and brushed her hair.
+
+Lily was frustrated. She said, "But I want to play school. It is fun. You can learn new things. Please, play with me." She tried to make her friends sit on the floor. But they did not listen. They ran away with their toys.
+
+Lily was sad. She did not have anyone to play with. She sat on the floor alone. She wished she had a friend who liked to play school. She wondered if she could find one.
+Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park with their toys. Lily has a teddy bear and Ben has a truck. They share and have fun.
+
+One day, a big dog comes to the park. He runs and barks and chases the toys. Lily and Ben are scared. They run to the bench and hug their toys. The dog jumps on the bench and tries to grab the teddy bear.
+
+Lily squeezes her teddy bear tight. She does not want to lose him. He is soft and warm and reliable. He always makes her feel better. Ben sees the dog and gets angry. He throws his truck at the dog. The truck hits the dog on the nose. The dog yelps and runs away.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They are safe and have their toys. They smile and hug each other. Lily gives Ben a wink. She is proud of him. He is brave and smart and reliable. He always helps her. They are best friends.
+Anna and Ben were going on a big trip with Mom and Dad. They were very excited to see new things and meet new people. They packed their bags and got in the car. Mom and Dad had their passports, which were small books with their names and pictures in them. They needed them to go to another country.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Anna asked.
+
+"Soon, sweetie. We just have to cross the big bridge and then we'll be at the airport," Mom said.
+
+Ben looked out the window and saw a big purple truck. It had a funny picture of a cow on it. He liked cows. He pointed at the truck and said, "Look, Anna, a purple cow!"
+
+Anna looked and laughed. "That's silly, Ben. Cows are not purple. They are black and white, or brown, or sometimes pink."
+
+The purple truck drove past them and then suddenly stopped. It made a loud noise and smoke came out of it. The driver got out and looked angry. He tried to fix the truck, but it did not work. He got back in and tried to reverse, but he hit another car behind him. He made a bigger noise and more smoke.
+
+"Oh no, what's happening?" Anna asked.
+
+"It looks like the purple truck is broken and it caused a crash. We have to wait until the police come and sort it out," Dad said.
+
+He looked at his watch and frowned. "I hope we don't miss our flight. We need to be at the airport in an hour."
+
+Anna and Ben felt worried. They wanted to go on their big trip. They hoped the police would come soon and clear the way. They hoped the purple truck would not ruin their plans. They hoped they would still have their passports and their bags when they got to the airport. They hoped they would see new things and meet new people. They hoped they would have fun.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the garden. They saw a caterpillar on a leaf. It was green and fuzzy.
+
+"Look, a caterpillar!" Lily said. "Can we keep it?"
+
+Sam nodded. He liked caterpillars. He picked it up gently and put it in a jar.
+
+"We need to give it food and water," Lily said. "And a name. How about Coco?"
+
+Sam agreed. Coco was a good name. They found some grass and flowers and put them in the jar. They also added some water in a bottle cap.
+
+They took the jar inside and put it on the table. They enjoyed watching Coco crawl and eat.
+
+But the next day, Coco was not moving. He was curled up in a ball.
+
+"What's wrong with Coco?" Lily asked. "Is he sick?"
+
+Sam shook his head. He remembered what his teacher had told him.
+
+"No, he's not sick. He's making a cocoon. He will become a butterfly."
+
+Lily was amazed. She did not know caterpillars could do that.
+
+"Wow, really? How long will it take?"
+
+Sam shrugged. He did not know.
+
+They decided to wait and see. They hoped Coco would be happy and healthy.
+
+But they also felt a little sad. They would miss their caterpillar friend.
+
+They were poor in words, but rich in love.
+Lily loved to watch the train. She liked the big, loud sound it made and the smoke that came out of it. She liked to see the people get on and off and wave at them. She wanted to be a train driver when she grew up.
+
+One day, she went to the train station with her mom and dad. They had a special ticket to see a show. Lily was excited. She wanted to see the performers do tricks and make jokes. She hoped they would have a train in the show.
+
+They found their seats and waited for the show to start. Lily looked around and saw a big red curtain. She wondered what was behind it. She saw a sign that said "Do not touch". She was curious. She wanted to touch it.
+
+She waited until her mom and dad were busy talking to each other. Then she got up and walked to the curtain. She reached out her hand and pulled it. She thought it would be soft and smooth. But it was not. It was heavy and hard. It fell down with a loud noise.
+
+Lily was scared. She saw that the curtain was hiding a big train. It was part of the show. But she had ruined it. She had been careless. The performers were angry. The people were shocked. Her mom and dad were worried. They ran to her and hugged her. They said they were sorry. They said they loved her. But they also said she had to be more careful. She had to listen to the signs. She had to stay in her seat.
+
+Lily felt bad. She wanted to see the show. She wanted to see the train. She wanted to be a train driver. But she had made a big mistake. She learned a lesson. She said she was sorry. She said she loved them. She said she would be more careful. She said she would listen to the signs. She said she would stay in her seat. She hoped the performers could fix the train. She hoped they could still do the show. She hoped they would forgive her. She hoped she could still watch the train.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide on the grass. They saw a big pool of water with a sign that said "No diving". Anna wanted to dive into the water. She thought it would be fun and cool.
+
+"Look, Ben, a pool!" Anna said. "Let's dive in!"
+
+"No, Anna, we can't," Ben said. "The sign says no diving. It is not safe. There might be rocks or glass or cactus in the water. And we don't have our swimsuits."
+
+Anna did not listen to Ben. She ran to the edge of the pool and jumped in. She felt a sharp pain in her foot. She screamed and cried. She had stepped on a cactus that was floating in the water. It had many needles that hurt her.
+
+Ben ran to help Anna. He pulled her out of the water and took out the needles from her foot. He wrapped her foot with his shirt. He was worried and angry.
+
+"Anna, why did you dive in?" Ben asked. "I told you not to. You were very silly and naughty. Now you are hurt and wet and embarrassed. And we have to go home and tell Mom."
+
+Anna felt sorry and ashamed. She knew Ben was right. She had not followed the rules. She had not listened to her friend. She had hurt herself and made a mess.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Anna said. "You are a good friend. You helped me. I was wrong to dive in. I won't do it again. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Ben hugged Anna. He was still worried and angry, but he was also kind and forgiving.
+
+"Of course I forgive you, Anna," Ben said. "You are my friend. But next time, please listen to me. And don't dive into pools with cactus in them. That is very silly and dangerous."
+
+Anna nodded. She learned her lesson. She and Ben walked home, holding hands. They hoped Mom would not be too mad at them.
+Lily and Ben were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. But they had to be careful of the jellyfish. Mom and dad told them that jellyfish could sting and hurt them. They said to look for the pale ones that floated near the shore.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big pale jellyfish in the water. She wanted to touch it and see how it felt. She ran towards it, but Ben stopped her. "No, Lily, don't!" he said. "That's a jellyfish. It can sting you."
+
+Lily did not listen to Ben. She thought he was just scared. She said, "I'm not afraid of jellyfish. They are soft and pretty. I want to touch it." She reached out her hand to the jellyfish.
+
+But as soon as she touched it, she felt a sharp pain in her finger. She screamed and pulled back her hand. The jellyfish had stung her. She started to cry and ran to mom and dad. They wrapped her finger in a cloth and took her to the doctor.
+
+The doctor gave her some medicine and a bandage. He said, "You're lucky. Some jellyfish can sting much worse. You should always listen to your mom and dad and your brother. They know what's best for you."
+
+Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She said, "I'm sorry, Ben. You were right. I should have listened to you. I learned my lesson. Jellyfish are not toys. They are animals that can hurt you."
+
+Ben hugged Lily and said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm glad you're okay. I love you, sis. Next time, let's play with something else at the beach. Maybe a ball or a bucket."
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She said, "I love you too, Ben. And I love mom and dad. Thank you for taking care of me. Next time, I will be more careful and listen to you."
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big pond with some ducks and fish. They wanted to feed them some bread.
+
+"Look, Tom, a big green alligator!" Lily said, pointing to the water. She saw a long tail and a big mouth with sharp teeth.
+
+"Wow, Lily, he is scary! And hairy, too!" Tom said, looking at the alligator's rough skin. He was afraid of the alligator. He wanted to go away.
+
+But Lily was curious. She wanted to see the alligator better. She walked closer to the pond. She threw a piece of bread to the alligator. The alligator opened his mouth and ate the bread.
+
+"Hello, alligator, do you want more bread?" Lily asked. She smiled at the alligator. She thought he was friendly.
+
+But the alligator was not friendly. He was hungry. He wanted to eat Lily, too. He jumped out of the water and ran towards Lily. He made a loud noise. It sounded like a ring.
+
+"Help, Tom, help!" Lily screamed. She was scared of the alligator. She ran away from the pond.
+
+Tom heard Lily's scream. He saw the alligator chasing Lily. He was brave. He picked up a big stick and threw it at the alligator. The stick hit the alligator's head. The alligator was hurt. He stopped running and went back to the pond.
+
+"Lily, are you okay?" Tom asked. He hugged Lily. He was glad she was safe.
+
+"Yes, Tom, I'm okay. Thank you for saving me. You are a hero!" Lily said. She hugged Tom back. She was sorry for being silly. She learned her lesson.
+
+They decided to leave the pond and play somewhere else. They never bothered the alligator again. They were happy.
+Lily was very tired. She had played all day with her toys and her dog. She wanted to go to bed, but Mom said she had to wait. Mom was busy making dinner for Dad, who was coming home late.
+
+Lily yawned and rubbed her eyes. She felt an itch on her nose. She scratched it, but it did not go away. She scratched it again, but it got worse. She sneezed and felt something tickle her nose. She looked and saw a fuzzy caterpillar on her finger.
+
+"Mom, look!" Lily said. "I found a caterpillar!"
+
+Mom turned and saw Lily holding the caterpillar. She smiled and came over to her.
+
+"That's a nice caterpillar, Lily," Mom said. "But you should not touch it. It might make you itch or sneeze. Let's put it outside, where it can find some leaves to eat."
+
+Mom took the caterpillar from Lily and opened the door. She gently placed it on a flower in the garden.
+
+"Bye, caterpillar," Lily said. "Have a good night."
+
+Mom closed the door and hugged Lily.
+
+"You are a very patient girl, Lily," Mom said. "Thank you for waiting for me. Now it's time for bed. Let's brush your teeth and read a story."
+
+Lily nodded and followed Mom to the bathroom. She was still tired, but she was happy. She liked caterpillars, but she liked Mom more.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play dress up. They have many hats and coats and shoes. They also have a big box of funny things. In the box, there are glasses, wigs, ties, and mustaches.
+
+One day, Tom and Sam want to dress up as pirates. They find a hat with a skull, a coat with buttons, and a sword. They also find a mustache that is black and curly. Tom wants to wear the mustache. He thinks it makes him look like a scary pirate. He puts it on his face with some tape.
+
+But Sam disagrees. He says the mustache does not fit Tom. He says it is too big and too silly. He says Tom looks like a clown, not a pirate. He wants to wear the mustache instead. He thinks it makes him look like a brave pirate. He tries to take it from Tom's face.
+
+Tom and Sam start to fight. They pull and tug and shout. The mustache falls off and lands on the floor. They both reach for it, but it is too late. The dog comes and grabs the mustache. He runs away with it in his mouth. He thinks it is a toy.
+
+Tom and Sam stop fighting. They look at the dog. They see the mustache on his face. They start to laugh. They think the dog looks funny. They forget about being pirates. They decide to play with the dog instead. They are friends again.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and make mud pies. They hoped to find some worms or bugs. They had a big saw that Daddy gave them. It was not sharp, but it was useful for cutting sticks and leaves.
+
+One day, they saw something shiny in the dirt. They used the saw to dig it out. It was a metal ring with a pretty stone. Anna and Ben thought it was a treasure. They hoped it was magic. They put it on Anna's finger and made a wish.
+
+They wished for a big cake with lots of icing and sprinkles. They waited and waited, but nothing happened. They were sad. They thought the ring was not magic. They took it off and threw it away.
+
+But then, they heard a voice. It was Mommy. She came out of the house with a big cake. She said it was a surprise for them. She said she found the ring in the trash and thought it was theirs. She said it was very pretty and she wanted to thank them.
+
+Anna and Ben were happy. They hugged Mommy and thanked her. They said the ring was a treasure. They said it was magic. They said they hoped she liked it. They shared the cake with Mommy and the ring with each other. They had a great day.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with puzzles. Puzzles have many pieces. You put the pieces together to make a picture.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben find a new puzzle. It is very big and has many colors. They want to make the picture. They open the box and take out the pieces.
+
+"Look, Ben, this piece has a flower. Where does it go?" Anna asks.
+
+"Maybe here, next to the grass. Let me try," Ben says.
+
+They work hard and have fun. They find more pieces with flowers, grass, trees, and animals. They make the puzzle bigger and bigger.
+
+But then, a naughty cat comes. The cat is black and white. His name is Spot. Spot likes to play with puzzles too. But he does not put the pieces together. He jumps on the puzzle and scatters the pieces.
+
+"Spot, no! Bad cat! Go away!" Anna and Ben shout.
+
+But Spot does not listen. He runs away with some pieces in his mouth. He hides under the sofa.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad and angry. They look at the puzzle. It is broken and incomplete. They look for the missing pieces. They look under the sofa.
+
+"Spot, give us back our pieces. We want to finish our puzzle. It is not yours. It is ours," Anna and Ben say.
+
+But Spot does not want to share. He hisses and scratches. He keeps the pieces.
+
+Anna and Ben do not know what to do. They need help. They call their mom and dad.
+
+"Mom, Dad, Spot is naughty. He ruined our puzzle. He took our pieces. He is under the sofa. Can you help us?" Anna and Ben say.
+
+Mom and Dad come. They see the puzzle and the cat. They are not happy.
+
+"Spot, you are a naughty cat. You should not play with puzzles. You should play with your toys. You should not take things that are not yours. You should share with Anna and Ben. They are your friends. Give them back their pieces. Now," Mom and Dad say.
+
+They reach under the sofa. They take the pieces from Spot. They give them back to Anna and Ben.
+
+"Thank you, Mom and Dad. You are the best. We love you," Anna and Ben say.
+
+They hug their mom and dad. They hug each other. They hug Spot too. They are not mad at him anymore. They know he is just a cat. They want him to be happy too.
+

+
+Mr. Rich said, "Studying is important, but so is playing. You need to do both. You need to learn new things, but also have fun and be creative. That is how I became rich.

+But Anna's mom is busy. She has to work on her laptop and talk on the phone. She does not like the noise that Anna makes. She says, "Anna, please be quiet. I have to work. Can you play with something else?"
+
+Anna does not want to stop. She likes to pour water. She thinks it is fun. She says, "No, mom. I want to play with water. It is not noisy. It is nice."
+
+But Anna's mom does not agree. She says, "Anna, it is very noisy. And you are making a mess. Look, the water is spilling on the floor. You have to stop. Or I will take away your plastic cups and spoons."
+
+Anna does not like that. She does not want to lose her plastic cups and spoons. She loves them. She says, "Sorry, mom. I will be quiet. I will play with something else."
+
+She puts away her plastic cups and spoons. She looks for something else to play with. She sees her teddy bear. She hugs him. She says, "Teddy, do you want to play with me? We can have a tea party. I will pour you some tea. But we have to be quiet. OK?"
+
+Teddy nods. He likes tea parties. He likes Anna. He does not mind being quiet. He says, "OK, Anna. Let's have a tea party. But shh, don't tell mom."
+Lily and Ben like to design things with paper and glue. They make hats and boats and animals. One day, they see a big bowl of popcorn on the table. They think it would be fun to design with popcorn too.
+
+"Let's make popcorn necklaces!" Lily says. "We can wear them and pretend we are princesses and pirates."
+
+"Okay!" Ben says. "But we have to be careful. Mom said the popcorn is hot and we can't eat it."
+
+They take some string and start to put popcorn on it. They make long and short necklaces. They put them on and laugh.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is Mom. She is angry.
+
+"What are you doing?" she yells. "You ruined my popcorn! I was going to make a cake with it for Grandma's birthday. Now I have to start over. And you made a big mess. Go to your rooms right now!"
+
+Lily and Ben feel sad and sorry. They did not know Mom was going to use the popcorn. They did not mean to make her mad. They take off their necklaces and go to their rooms. They wish they had not played with the popcorn. They wish they had listened to Mom. They wish they had a better ending.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play with toys. One day, they go to the toy shop with Mom. They see many toys in the shop. They see dolls, cars, balls, and puzzles.
+
+Sara sees a bright pink doll. She likes the doll very much. She says to Mom, "Mom, can I buy this doll? She has long hair and a pretty dress. She is so bright and cute!"
+
+Tom sees a bright blue car. He likes the car very much. He says to Mom, "Mom, can I buy this car? It has four wheels and a big engine. It is so bright and fast!"
+
+Mom smiles and says, "You can buy one toy each. But you have to share with each other. And you have to be careful with your toys. Do not break them or lose them."
+
+Sara and Tom are happy. They say, "Thank you, Mom!" They buy the doll and the car. They go home with Mom. They play with their toys in their room.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Tom plays too rough with the car. He makes the car go zoom and crash. He breaks the car's leg. The car cannot move anymore.
+
+Tom is sad. He says, "Oh no, I broke the car's leg. Now the car is not bright and fast anymore. It is broken and slow."
+
+Sara sees Tom's sad face. She feels sorry for him. She says, "It's okay, Tom. You can play with my doll. She is bright and cute. She has long hair and a pretty dress. And she has two legs that are not broken."
+
+Tom smiles. He says, "Thank you, Sara. You are a good sister. You are bright and kind. I will play with your doll. And I will be gentle with her. I will not break her or lose her."
+
+Sara and Tom hug each other. They play with the doll and the car. They share with each other. And they are careful with their toys. Mom is proud of them. She says, "You are good twins. You are bright and sweet."
+Tom and Lily are playing with cards. They have many cards with different pictures on them. They want to find cards that match. That means they have the same picture.
+
+Tom picks up a card with a big red apple on it. He looks for another card with a big red apple. He finds one and says, "Look, Lily, I have a match!" He puts the two cards together and smiles.
+
+Lily picks up a card with a yellow star on it. She looks for another card with a yellow star. She does not find one. She picks up another card with a green frog on it. She says, "No, this is not a match. This is a frog, not a star." She puts the card back and frowns.
+
+Tom picks up a card with a zero on it. He does not know what it is. He asks Lily, "What is this, Lily? Is this a match?" He shows her the card.
+
+Lily looks at the card and shakes her head. She says, "No, Tom, this is not a match. This is a zero. It is nothing. It is ugly." She pushes the card away and makes a face.
+
+Tom feels sad. He likes the card with the zero. He thinks it is not ugly. He thinks it is round and smooth and nice. He says, "But I like the zero, Lily. I think it is pretty. Can I keep it?"
+
+Lily looks at Tom and sees that he is sad. She feels sorry for him. She says, "Okay, Tom, you can keep the zero. Maybe you can find another zero and make a match. Then you will be happy."
+
+Tom hugs Lily and says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I will look for another zero and make a match. Then we will both be happy." He puts the card with the zero in his pocket and looks for another one.
+Tom and Jen were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they found a big boot in the grass. It was unusual, because it had a hole in the toe and a buckle on the side. They wanted to see what was inside the boot, so they took turns to look.
+
+Tom looked first, and saw a shiny coin. He was happy, and put the coin in his pocket. Jen looked next, and saw a fuzzy spider. She was scared, and screamed. The spider jumped out of the boot and bit her on the nose. Jen cried, and ran to their mom.
+
+Mom saw Jen's nose, and said they had to go to the doctor. She was angry, and asked them where they found the boot. Tom and Jen told her, and she said it was a bad boot that belonged to a mean man. She said they should never touch things that were not theirs, and that they had to settle for a time out when they got home.
+
+Tom and Jen felt sorry, and wished they had left the boot alone. They learned a hard lesson, and hoped Jen would be okay. The boot was still in the grass, and the spider was still inside. It waited for another curious child to come by.
+Mia and Sam were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big box in the attic. Inside the box, there were many shiny things. Mia and Sam gazed at them with wonder.
+
+"Look, Sam, a pin!" Mia said, picking up a small metal thing with a pointy end and a round head. "It is red and pretty. I can put it on my dress."
+
+"Be careful, Mia, it can hurt you," Sam said, holding a wooden car. "You have to push it through the cloth, not your skin."
+
+Mia nodded and tried to pin the pin on her dress. But it was too hard. She could not make a hole in the cloth. She frowned and gave up.
+
+"Here, let me help you," Sam said, putting down his car. He took the pin from Mia and pushed it through her dress with his fingers. He smiled and showed Mia. "There, now you have a jolly pin on your dress. You look very nice."
+
+"Thank you, Sam, you are very kind," Mia said, hugging her brother. "You look very nice too, with your car. Do you want to play with it?"
+
+"Yes, let's play," Sam said, picking up his car again. "We can make a race with the other toys. Come on, Mia, follow me."
+
+Mia and Sam ran out of the attic with their toys. They had a lot of fun with the shiny things in the box. They did not know that the box belonged to their grandma, who had many stories to tell about them.
+Ben was a boy who liked to play with his toys. He had many toys, but he did not like to share them with his sister, Lily. He always said, "Mine, mine, mine!" and took them away from her.
+
+One day, Ben was playing with his blocks. He made a big tower and was very proud of it. He saw Lily looking at his tower and said, "No, no, no! You can't touch my tower! It is mine!" He pushed Lily away and made her cry.
+
+Lily ran to their mom and told her what Ben did. Mom was not happy. She said, "Ben, you need to share your toys with your sister. She is your family and you should be kind to her. How would you feel if she did the same to you?"
+
+Ben did not listen to mom. He said, "I don't care. I don't want to share. I like my tower and I don't want anyone to touch it." He was very rude and impatient.
+
+Mom said, "Ben, if you don't share your toys, I will put them in the bin. You will have no toys to play with. Is that what you want?"
+
+Ben did not believe mom. He said, "You won't do that. You are just saying that. I will keep my tower and my toys." He turned his back to mom and Lily and kept playing.
+
+Mom was very sad and angry. She said, "Okay, Ben. You have made your choice. You will see what happens." She took a big bag and went to Ben's room. She put all his toys in the bag, even his tower. She carried the bag to the bin and threw it inside.
+
+Ben heard the noise and ran to the bin. He saw his toys in the bin and was very shocked and sad. He said, "Mom, mom, what did you do? Why did you put my toys in the bin? I want them back! Please, please, please!"
+
+Mom said, "Ben, I told you to share your toys with your sister. You did not listen to me. You were selfish and rude and impatient. You did not care about Lily's feelings. You only cared about yourself. Now you have no toys to play with. Maybe this will teach you a lesson."
+
+Ben realized he was wrong. He said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for being mean to Lily and for not sharing my toys. I was very bad. I don't want to lose my toys. I want to play with Lily and share with her. Can I have my toys back? Please, please, please!"
+
+Mom said, "Ben, I'm glad you are sorry. But you have to show me that you mean it. You have to be nice to Lily and share your toys with her. You have to be patient and kind and respectful. If you do that, I will give you your toys back. But if you don't, they will stay in the bin. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I will be good. I will be good to Lily and share my toys with her. I will be patient and kind and respectful. Please, give me my toys back. I love you, mom."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, Ben. But remember, actions speak louder than words. You have to prove to me that you have changed. Come on, let's go and find Lily and play with her. And be careful not to step on the bin. It is dirty and smelly."
+
+Ben said, "Okay, mom. Thank you, mom. I will be careful. I will be good. Come on, Lily. Let's play together. I'm sorry for being mean to you. I want to share my toys with you. You are my sister and I love you."
+
+Lily said, "I love you too, Ben. Thank you for sharing your toys with me. You are my brother and I'm happy to play with you."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She said, "That's my children. I'm proud of you. You have learned a valuable lesson. Sharing is caring. And caring is loving. And loving is the best thing in the world."
+Sara did not want to go to school today. She had a test and she did not study. She was very scared of the test. She thought she would do bad and the teacher would be mad at her.
+
+She stayed in bed and pretended to be sick. She made a big yawn and said, "Mom, I feel bad. I have a sore head and a sore tummy. Can I stay home today?" Mom felt her head and said, "You don't have a fever. You have to go to school. You can't miss the test."
+
+Sara was sad and angry. She did not want to go to school. She did not want to take the test. She did not want to get out of bed. She made another big yawn and said, "But Mom, I'm so tired. I need more sleep. Can I stay home today?"
+
+Mom shook her head and said, "No, Sara. You have to go to school. You have to take the test. You have to get out of bed. You can sleep later. Now get up and get ready."
+
+Sara had no choice. She had to go to school. She had to take the test. She had to get out of bed. She was not happy. She made one more big yawn and said, "Fine, Mom. I'll go to school. But I don't like it."
+Tom and Lily liked to play chess with their dad. Chess was a game with black and white pieces that moved on a board with squares. Dad taught them how to play and they had fun.
+
+One day, dad had to leave for work. He said he would be back soon and gave them a hug and a kiss. He told them to be good and not to touch his chess set. His chess set was very special and enormous. It had big pieces that looked like kings and queens and horses and castles. It was on a big table in his study.
+
+Tom and Lily wanted to play chess, but they did not have their own set. They looked at dad's chess set and thought it was very pretty and shiny. They wanted to touch it and move the pieces. They thought dad would not mind if they played with it for a little while.
+
+They went into the study and climbed on the chairs. They reached for the pieces and started to move them. They did not know the rules, so they made up their own. They laughed and shouted and had fun.
+
+But they did not hear the door open and dad come back. He saw them playing with his chess set and was very angry. He shouted at them and told them to stop. He said they had ruined his chess set and they were very naughty. He took the pieces away and put them back in their places. He told them to go to their room and think about what they had done.
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad and sorry. They did not mean to make dad angry. They did not know his chess set was so important. They wished they had listened to him and not touched it. They hugged each other and cried. They hoped dad would forgive them and love them.
+Anna loved flowers. She liked to pick them from the garden and put them in a vase. She liked to smell them and look at their colors. She thought flowers were very pretty and made her happy.
+
+One day, Anna saw a big flower in the garden. It was yellow and red and had many petals. She wanted to pick it and take it home. She ran to the flower and reached for it. But she felt a sharp pain in her hand. She looked and saw a bee on the flower. The bee had stung her. Anna cried and ran to her mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, the bee hurt me!" Anna sobbed. "I wanted the flower, but the bee was mean!"
+
+Her mom hugged her and put some ice on her hand. She said, "I'm sorry, Anna, that must have hurt a lot. But you know, the bee was not mean. The bee was just protecting the flower. The flower is the bee's home and food. The bee values the flower very much. It needs the flower to live and make honey. If you pick the flower, you take away the bee's home and food. That is not nice."
+
+Anna looked at her mom and the flower. She felt sorry for the bee. She said, "I didn't know that, mom. I just liked the flower. But I don't want to take away the bee's home and food. I want the bee to be happy and make honey. Can I say sorry to the bee?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "That is very kind of you, Anna. You can say sorry to the bee, but be careful not to get too close. The bee might be scared or frustrated. You can also say thank you to the bee for making honey and pollinating the flowers. The bee helps the flowers grow and make seeds. The seeds make more flowers. The flowers make the garden beautiful and give us joy. We should value the flowers and the bees. They are both important and wonderful."
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I will say sorry and thank you to the bee. And I will not pick the flowers anymore. I will just look at them and smell them and enjoy them. I will value the flowers and the bees. They are both pretty and make me happy."
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Lily has a big book with many pictures and words. Ben has a long tape that can measure things. He likes to measure how big and small things are.
+
+"Can I measure your book, Lily?" Ben asks. He wants to see how long and wide the book is.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. This is my favorite book. It has stories about animals and fairies and pirates," Lily says. She loves to look at the book and hear her mom read it to her.
+
+Ben takes the tape and puts one end on the edge of the book. He pulls the tape until it reaches the other end of the book. He looks at the numbers on the tape.
+
+"Wow, your book is very big. It is 30 centimeters long," Ben says.
+
+"Can you measure how wide it is?" Lily asks. She is curious too.
+
+Ben moves the tape to the side of the book. He pulls the tape again until it covers the whole width of the book. He looks at the numbers again.
+
+"Your book is also very wide. It is 20 centimeters wide," Ben says.
+
+"That's cool. Can I measure something too?" Lily asks. She wants to try the tape.
+
+"Sure, what do you want to measure?" Ben asks. He is patient and kind. He likes to share his toys with Lily.
+
+Lily looks around the room. She sees a small teddy bear on the couch. She likes the teddy bear. It is soft and brown and has a red bow.
+
+"I want to measure the teddy bear," Lily says. She picks up the teddy bear and hugs it.
+
+"Okay, let's measure the teddy bear," Ben says. He gives the tape to Lily. He helps her hold one end of the tape on the teddy bear's head. He helps her pull the other end of the tape to the teddy bear's feet.
+
+"How long is the teddy bear?" Lily asks.
+
+Ben looks at the numbers. He smiles.
+
+"The teddy bear is 15 centimeters long. It is half as long as your book," Ben says.
+
+Lily giggles. She thinks the teddy bear is cute and small.
+
+"Can we measure how wide the teddy bear is?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, let's measure how wide the teddy bear is," Ben says. He helps Lily move the tape to the teddy bear's belly. He helps her pull the tape to the teddy bear's back.
+
+"How wide is the teddy bear?" Lily asks.
+
+Ben looks at the numbers. He laughs.
+
+"The teddy bear is 10 centimeters wide. It is half as wide as your book," Ben says.
+
+Lily claps. She thinks the teddy bear is funny and round.
+
+They measure more things in the room. They measure the table, the chair, the lamp, and the rug. They have fun and learn new words. They are happy and smart.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with blocks. They want to build a big tower. They put blocks on top of blocks. The tower is tall and strong.
+
+But Ben is mean. He does not like Lily and Tom. He thinks they are stupid. He wants to make them sad. He runs to the tower and kicks it. The blocks fall down. The tower is gone.
+
+Lily and Tom are angry. They shout at Ben. "Why did you do that? That was our tower! You are bad and mean!"
+
+Ben laughs. He says, "Your tower was stupid. You are stupid. I am smart. I can kick your tower. That is success."
+
+Lily and Tom do not listen to Ben. They know he is wrong. They are not stupid. They are smart. They can build a tower. That is success.
+
+They pick up the blocks. They start to build again. They work together. They make a new tower. It is bigger and stronger than before.
+
+Ben sees the new tower. He is jealous. He wants to kick it again. But he is afraid. He sees Lily and Tom are happy. He sees they have fun. He feels lonely. He wishes he had friends.
+
+He walks to Lily and Tom. He says, "I am sorry. I was mean. Can I play with you?"
+
+Lily and Tom look at Ben. They are surprised. They think for a moment. They decide to give Ben a chance. They say, "OK. You can play with us. But you have to be nice. And you have to help us build the tower."
+
+Ben nods. He says, "OK. I will be nice. And I will help you build the tower."
+
+They give Ben some blocks. They show him how to stack them. They teach him how to make the tower stable. They share their ideas. They listen to each other.
+
+The tower grows and grows. It is the biggest tower they ever made. They are proud of their work. They are happy with their friends. They are success.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the mud. They made mud pies, mud castles and mud monsters. They had fun, but they also got very dirty. Their mom did not like that. She said they had to bathe before dinner.
+
+But Tom and Lily did not want to bathe. They said bathing was boring and cold. They ran away from their mom and hid in the woods. They thought they were clever and safe. But they were wrong.
+
+In the woods, there was a witch who lived in a hut. She saw Tom and Lily and smiled. She liked dirty children. She said they were easy to catch and cook. She came out of her hut and called to them.
+
+"Hello, little ones. Do you want some candy?" she said.
+
+Tom and Lily liked candy. They forgot about their mom and the bath. They followed the witch to her hut. They did not see the big pot on the fire. They did not see the witch's sharp teeth and claws.
+
+The witch grabbed Tom and Lily and threw them in the pot. She laughed and said, "Now you will bathe in my soup!"
+
+Tom and Lily screamed and cried. They wished they had listened to their mom. They wished they had bathed before dinner. They wished they had stayed away from the witch. But it was too late. The witch had them. And she was hungry.
+Lila and Ben went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks and swans. Lila liked the swans. They had long necks and white feathers. She wanted to feed them some bread.
+
+But one swan looked sad. It had a bad wing. It could not swim or fly with the other swans. It stayed on the grass and made a low sound. Lila felt sorry for the swan. She asked Mom, "What is wrong with the swan, Mom?"
+
+Mom said, "The swan has a hurt wing, Lila. Maybe a dog or a cat bit it. It needs help to fix its wing."
+
+Lila said, "Can we help it, Mom? Can we fix its wing?"
+
+Mom said, "We can try, Lila. But we have to be careful. The swan might be scared or angry. We have to be gentle and quiet."
+
+Mom and Lila walked slowly to the swan. Ben stayed with the ducks. He did not like the swan. He thought it was big and mean. Mom and Lila had some bandages and some water in their bag. They put some water on the swan's wing and cleaned the wound. Then they wrapped the bandage around the wing and tied it with a bow.
+
+The swan looked at them with its black eyes. It did not bite or flap. It made a soft sound. Lila thought it was saying thank you. She smiled and stroked the swan's head. She said, "You are welcome, swan. I hope you feel better soon. You are a beautiful swan."
+
+The swan nodded and stretched its neck. It looked happier. Mom said, "Good job, Lila. You are a kind girl. You helped the swan fix its wing. Maybe it will heal and fly again."
+
+Lila said, "I hope so, Mom. I like the swan. Can we come back and see it again?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, Lila. We can come back and see it again. Maybe we can bring some more bread for it and the other swans."
+
+Lila and Mom hugged the swan and said goodbye. They joined Ben and the ducks. They had a fun day at the park. They saw many animals and made a new friend. The swan was their friend.
+Ben and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toys in the yard. One day, they found a big nail on the ground. It was shiny and sharp.
+
+"Look, a nail!" Ben said. "Let's use it to make something."
+
+"OK, what do you want to make?" Sam asked.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He saw a wooden box near the fence. He had an idea.
+
+"Let's make a trap for the cat!" he said. "The cat is stupid and mean. He always scratches us and steals our food."
+
+Sam nodded. He did not like the cat either. They took the nail and the box and went to the fence. They put the box upside down and made a hole in it. They stuck the nail through the hole, so that it pointed up. They put some cheese under the box.
+
+"Now we wait for the cat to come," Ben said. "When he smells the cheese, he will go under the box. Then he will step on the nail and suffer. He will cry and run away. And we will laugh."
+
+They hid behind a bush and watched. Soon, they saw the cat walking in the yard. He sniffed the air and smelled the cheese. He walked towards the box. Ben and Sam smiled.
+
+But then, something went wrong. The cat did not go under the box. He went around it. He saw the nail sticking out. He was curious. He touched the nail with his paw. He felt a sharp pain. He hissed and scratched the nail. The nail flew out of the hole and hit Ben in the face.
+
+"Ow!" Ben screamed. "The nail hurt me!"
+
+He dropped to the ground and held his face. He had a red mark on his cheek. He felt blood coming out. He started to cry.
+
+Sam ran to him and saw what happened. He felt sorry for his brother. He also felt sorry for the cat. He realized that their plan was bad.
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry," he said. "We were stupid. We should not have tried to hurt the cat. The cat did not deserve to suffer. He was just hungry and curious. We should be nice to him."
+
+Ben looked at his brother. He looked at the cat. The cat was licking his paw. He looked sad and scared. Ben felt ashamed. He nodded.
+
+"You're right, Sam," he said. "We were stupid. We should be nice to the cat. Maybe he will be nice to us too."
+
+They got up and went to the cat. They said sorry to him. They gave him the cheese. The cat ate the cheese and purred. He rubbed his head against their legs. He forgave them.
+
+They took the nail and the box and threw them away. They went inside and washed Ben's face. They put a band-aid on his cheek. They hugged each other and the cat. They learned a lesson. They never tried to make a trap again.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. But they also liked to mark things with their crayons. They marked trees and rocks and benches. They marked their names and shapes and animals.
+
+One day, they saw a stream in the park. It was shiny and wet and made a nice sound. Lily and Tom wanted to mark the stream too. They ran to the stream with their crayons. But they were not careful. They did not see the sign that said "Do not go near the stream".
+
+"Look, Tom, I can mark the water!" Lily said. She held her crayon over the stream and tried to draw on it. But the water was too fast and too deep. It took her crayon away. Lily was sad and angry. She wanted her crayon back.
+
+"Give me your crayon, Tom. I want to try again." Lily said. She was impatient. She did not listen to Tom.
+
+"No, Lily, it is not safe. The stream is too strong. It will take my crayon too. And maybe you." Tom said. He was scared. He did not want to lose his crayon or his sister.
+
+But Lily did not care. She grabbed Tom's crayon and ran to the stream. She leaned over the water and tried to mark it. But she lost her balance. She fell into the stream. She screamed and splashed. She was wet and cold and scared.
+
+Tom ran to help her. He called for help. He reached for her hand. He pulled her out of the stream. He hugged her and said "Lily, you are silly. You should not mark the stream. You should mark the paper. It is safer and more fun."
+
+Lily was sorry. She said "I am sorry, Tom. You are right. I should not mark the stream. I should mark the paper. Can we go home and mark the paper?"
+
+Tom nodded. He said "Yes, Lily, we can go home and mark the paper. But first, we have to dry off and say sorry to the park keeper. He is not happy with us. He saw us mark the trees and rocks and benches. He said we have to clean them."
+
+Lily and Tom learned their lesson. They did not mark the stream or the park anymore. They marked the paper and the fridge and the wall. But only with their mom's permission.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. Sara liked to display her dolls and teddy bears on her bed. Ben liked to display his cars and trucks on his floor. They were very proud of their toys and did not like to share them.
+
+One day, their mom asked them to help her carry some groceries from the car. Sara and Ben said they were too busy playing with their toys. They did not want to help their mom. They wanted to be independent and do what they liked.
+
+Their mom was sad and said, "Sara and Ben, you are not being nice. You should help me when I need you. You are part of a family and we should help each other. Your toys are not more important than your mom."
+
+Sara and Ben felt sorry for their mom. They decided to help her carry the groceries. They realized that some of the bags were very heavy. They had to use both hands to lift them. They could not display their toys while they were helping their mom.
+
+They learned that helping their mom was more fun than playing with their toys. They also learned that being independent did not mean being selfish. They thanked their mom for buying them food and gave her a hug. Their mom was happy and said, "Sara and Ben, you are very good children. I love you very much. You can play with your toys later, but first let's put the groceries away."

+The moral of the story is: We should help our family when they need us and not be selfish with our toys. Being independent means being responsible and caring, not doing whatever we want.
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play with crayons and stickers. One day, they found a big book on the table. It was Mom's exam book. Mom was studying hard for her exam.
+
+"Let's decorate the book!" Lily said. "It looks boring."
+
+"Okay!" Ben said. "We can make it pretty."
+
+They took the crayons and stickers and started to draw and stick on the book. They made flowers, stars, hearts, and animals. They used all the colors and shapes. They were having fun.
+
+But Mom was not happy. She came into the room and saw what they did. She was very angry.
+
+"What did you do?" Mom shouted. "This is my exam book! You ruined it!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not know they did something bad. They thought they were helping.
+
+"We decorated it, Mom," Lily said. "We wanted to make it nice for you."
+
+Mom did not listen. She took the book and threw it in the trash. She sent Lily and Ben to their rooms. She said they were naughty and could not play anymore.
+
+Lily and Ben cried. They felt sorry and sad. They wished they did not decorate the book. They wished Mom was not mad at them. They wished they had a better day.
+Tommy loved to play with his dog, Spot. Spot was big and furry and liked to run and jump and lick Tommy's face. Tommy and Spot would go to the park every day and have fun with the ball and the stick and the other dogs.
+
+One day, Tommy's mom said they had to go to the vet. She said Spot was sick and needed some medicine. Tommy was worried. He did not want Spot to be sick. He did not want Spot to hurt. He hugged Spot and told him he loved him.
+
+At the vet, Tommy and his mom waited in a room with a table and a lamp and a poster of cats. Tommy saw a needle on the table. He did not like needles. He asked his mom what it was for. His mom said it was for Spot. She said it would make him feel better. She said it would make him go to sleep. Tommy did not understand. He did not want Spot to go to sleep. He wanted Spot to play with him.
+
+The vet came in. He was nice and smiled and said hello. He looked at Spot and said he was very sick. He said he had a bad thing in his body that made him hurt. He said there was no medicine that could make him better. He said the needle would make him stop hurting. He said it was the best thing to do. He said he was sorry.
+
+Tommy did not want to hear that. He did not want to lose Spot. He cried and screamed and held Spot tight. He said no, no, no. He said Spot was his best friend. He said he would miss him. He said he hated the vet. He said he hated the needle.
+
+The vet was sad. He said he understood. He said he had a dog too. He said he loved dogs. He said he wished he could do something else. He said he had to do his job. He said he would be gentle. He said he would make it quick. He said he would mention Spot's name in a prayer. He said he hoped Tommy would be okay.
+
+Tommy did not listen. He did not care. He only cared about Spot. He kissed Spot and whispered in his ear. He said he was sorry. He said he was brave. He said he was good. He said he would never forget him. He said goodbye.
+
+The vet took the needle and put it in Spot's leg. Spot did not move. He did not bark. He did not lick. He only looked at Tommy with his big brown eyes. He wagged his tail once. He put his head on Tommy's lap. He closed his eyes.
+
+Tommy felt Spot's body go limp. He felt his breath stop. He felt his heart stop. He felt his own heart break. He sobbed and sobbed and sobbed. He did not let go of Spot. He did not want to let go. He did not want to say goodbye.
+
+His mom hugged him and cried with him. She said she was sorry. She said she loved him. She said she loved Spot. She said they would always remember him. She said they would bury him in the backyard. She said they would plant a flower on his grave. She said they would find a picture of him and put it on the wall. She said they would tell stories about him and laugh and cry. She said they would heal.
+
+Tommy did not hear her. He did not believe her. He did not think he would ever heal. He did not think he would ever smile. He did not think he would ever play. He did not think he would ever love. He only thought of Spot. He only felt pain. He only wished he could go to sleep too. He only wished he could be with Spot. He only wished he could say hello.
+Lily had a rabbit named Snowy. She loved to play with him in the garden. He was white and soft and fit in her arms. But sometimes he got dirty from the grass and the mud.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Snowy needs a wash. He is too dirty. Let's go to the bathroom and wash him with soap and water."
+
+Lily nodded and carried Snowy to the bathroom. She put him in the sink and turned on the tap. She poured some water on him and rubbed some soap on his fur. Snowy did not like it. He wiggled and squirmed and tried to get away.
+
+"Stop, Snowy! It's okay. You will be clean and shiny soon," Lily said. She held him gently and rinsed off the soap. She wrapped him in a towel and dried him off. She hugged him and said, "There, you are done. You look so pretty and smell so good."
+
+Snowy snuggled with Lily and licked her cheek. He was happy to be clean and to be with his friend. He said, "Thank you, Lily. I love you." Lily smiled and said, "I love you too, Snowy. You are my best rabbit."

+
+"Let's go closer and see," Ben says. He holds Anna's hand and they run to the building.
+
+They stop at the door. There is a sign that says "Museum". They do not know what that means.
+
+A lady comes out of the door. She smiles at them.
+
+"Hello, children. Do you want to visit the museum?" she asks.
+
+"What is a museum?" Anna asks.
+
+The lady kneels down and explains. "A museum is a place where you can see and learn about many things. Things from the past, things from other places, things that are beautiful or interesting. Do you want to see?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They are curious.
+
+The lady takes them inside the museum. She shows them paintings, sculptures, fossils, costumes, and more. Anna and Ben are amazed. They ask many questions and the lady answers them.

+Tom and Lily were hungry. They wanted to eat something yummy. But Mom was not home. She went to work. She said, "Be good, kids. Do not touch the stove. Do not make a mess. I will be back soon."
+
+Tom and Lily looked at the fridge. There was not much food. There was some bread, some cheese, some eggs, and some milk. There was also a big bag of junk. Mom said, "Do not eat the junk. It is bad for you. It will make you sick."
+
+But Tom and Lily did not listen. They wanted to eat the junk. It looked so good. It had candy, chips, cookies, and soda. They took the bag and opened it. They ate and ate and ate. They felt happy.
+
+Then they felt sick. Their tummies hurt. They felt thirsty. They drank some soda. It did not help. They felt worse. They wanted to cook something. They thought, "Maybe cooking will make us feel better."
+
+They went to the stove. They turned it on. They put a pan on it. They cracked some eggs. They threw some cheese. They poured some milk. They stirred and stirred. They did not know how to cook. They made a big mess. The pan was too hot. The eggs burned. The cheese melted. The milk boiled. The smoke filled the kitchen. The fire alarm beeped. Tom and Lily were scared.

+
+Tom and Lily cried. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We were hungry. We wanted to cook. We did not mean to make a mess. We did not mean to start a fire. Please do not be mad at us."
+
+Mom sighed. She turned off the stove. She opened the window. She hugged Tom and Lily. She said, "I am not mad at you. I am glad you are safe. But you have to listen to me. You have to be careful. You have to eat healthy. You have to wait for me to cook for you. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They said, "We understand, Mom. We love you, Mom. Can we help you clean up?"
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "Yes, you can. But first, let me get you some water. You need to drink water. You need to wash away the junk. You need to feel better."

+"I can make a longer and stronger bridge!" Ben said. He took some bricks from the pile and added them to his bridge. He did not see that the pile was getting smaller and smaller.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Lily said. "You are taking too many bricks. The pile will fall down!"
+
+But Ben did not listen. He wanted to make the best bridge. He took one more brick from the pile. Then he heard a loud noise. The pile of bricks fell down. Some bricks hit the fence. The fence broke. A big hole appeared.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben and Lily said. They saw something move in the hole. It was a dog. A big, black, angry dog. It had sharp teeth and a loud bark. It was a dangerous dog. It did not like children. It ran towards Ben and Lily.
+

+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big plate that their grandma gave them. The plate was shiny and had pictures of animals on it. Sara and Ben liked to pretend that the plate was a magic carpet or a flying saucer.

+One day, their mom told them to clean their room. Sara and Ben did not want to clean their room. They wanted to play with the plate. They said to their mom, "Please, can we play with the plate for a little more? We love the plate. It is our lucky plate."
+
+Their mom said, "No, you have to clean your room now. The plate is not a toy. It is a special plate that grandma gave you. You have to value the plate and take good care of it. Put the plate on the shelf and clean your room."
+
+Sara and Ben were sad and angry. They did not listen to their mom. They took the plate and ran to the backyard. They said to each other, "Let's play with the plate outside. It will be more fun. Mom does not understand. The plate is ours and we can do what we want with it."
+
+They threw the plate in the air and caught it. They spun the plate and watched it shine. They slid the plate on the grass and chased it. They had fun with the plate. But they did not see the big rock on the ground. The plate hit the rock and broke into many pieces. Sara and Ben heard a loud crack and saw the plate shatter. They were shocked and scared. They cried and ran to their mom.
+
+Their mom saw the broken plate and was very upset. She said to Sara and Ben, "What have you done? You broke the plate that grandma gave you. You did not value the plate. You did not listen to me. You were very naughty. You have to go to your room and think about what you did. You will not get any dessert or story tonight. You are not lucky. You are in big trouble."

+
+Tim and Sue watched Sam from the shore. They laughed and clapped their hands. They also threw some fish and ice cream to Sam, and he caught them with his mouth. He was very hungry and greedy.

He cried and ran out of the pond. He lay on the grass, and licked his wounds.
+
+Tim and Sue saw Sam in trouble. They ran to him, and hugged him. They said, "Poor Sam, we are sorry. The ducks and geese are mean. You are our good seal. We love you."

+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. But they do not like to go to the dentist. The dentist is a weird place. It has big chairs, bright lights and loud noises. The dentist also puts things in their mouths that hurt.

+
+The other kids were not impressed. They said, "Your tiger is not real. He is just a toy. He cannot do anything. He is boring and silly."
+
+Sam was angry and sad. He said, "No, you are wrong. My tiger is real. He can do everything. He is not boring and silly. He is great and smart. I will show you!"
+
+Sam ran to the swings with his tiger. He put his tiger on a swing and pushed him hard. He said, "See? My tiger can swing. He is having fun. He is better than your toys."

+But the tiger did not like the swing. He felt dizzy and scared. He wanted to get off. He roared, "Help! Help! I want to stop!"
+
+Sam did not hear him. He pushed him harder and harder. He said, "Roar louder, tiger! Show them how great you are!"
+
+The tiger roared louder and louder. He was not happy. He was angry and scared. He wanted to bite Sam. He said, "Stop! Stop! I want to bite you!"
+
+But Sam did not hear him. He pushed him harder and harder. He said, "Jump higher, tiger! Show them how great you are!"
+
+The tiger jumped higher and higher. He was not happy. He was angry and scared. He wanted to scratch Sam. He said, "Stop! Stop! I want to scratch you!"
+
+But Sam did not hear him. He pushed him harder and harder. He said, "Play more, tiger! Show them how great you are!"
+
+The tiger played more and more. He was not happy. He was angry and scared. He wanted to hurt Sam. He said, "Stop! Stop! I want to hurt you!"
+
+But Sam did not hear him. He pushed him harder and harder. He said, "You are the best toy ever, tiger! Show them how great you are!"
+
+The tiger was the best toy ever. He showed them how great he was. He bit Sam. He scratched Sam. He hurt Sam.
+
+Sam cried. He cried loud and hard. He said, "Ow! Ow! Ow! Why did you do that, tiger? I love you, tiger! I teach you, tiger! You are my friend, tiger!"
+
+But the tiger did not care. He was not his friend. He was his toy. He was angry and scared. He said, "You are not my friend. You are my owner. You are mean and bad. You hurt me, you scare me, you make me dizzy. I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!"
+
+The other kids saw what happened. They were shocked and scared. They ran away with their toys. They said, "That tiger is not great. He is bad. He is dangerous. He is scary. We do not like him. We do not like Sam."
+
+Sam was alone. He was hurt. He was sad. He had no friends. He had no toys. He had only his tiger. His big, soft, great tiger. His big, angry, bad tiger. His big, scary, dangerous tiger. His big, mean, hateful tiger.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big box in the park. The box has many small things inside. Some are shiny, some are round, some are soft.
+
+"Look, Sara, what is this?" Ben asks. He holds a small shiny thing. It has a button and a screen.
+
+"I don't know, Ben. Maybe it is a toy. Can I see?" Sara says. She wants to touch the shiny thing.
+
+"No, it is mine. I found it first. Go find your own toy," Ben says. He pushes Sara away. Sara feels sad and angry.
+
+"That is not nice, Ben. We are friends. We should share," Sara says. She tries to grab the shiny thing from Ben.
+
+"Stop it, Sara. You will break it. It is not a toy. It is a cell," Ben says. He remembers what his dad told him. A cell is a thing that can talk to other things far away.
+
+"A cell? What is a cell?" Sara asks. She is curious.
+
+"A cell is a thing that can make sounds and show pictures. You can talk to mom or dad with a cell. You can also play games and watch videos. It is very fun and cool," Ben says. He presses the button and the screen lights up.
+
+"Wow, that is amazing. Can I try?" Sara asks. She wants to see the cell.
+
+"Okay, fine. But only for a little bit. And be careful. Don't drop it or spill anything on it," Ben says. He gives the cell to Sara. He watches her closely.
+
+Sara holds the cell gently. She sees a picture of a cat on the screen. She hears a voice saying "meow". She smiles and laughs. She likes the cell.
+
+"Look, Ben, a cat. It is so cute. Can we keep it?" Sara asks.
+
+"No, Sara, it is not a real cat. It is a video. It is not normal to keep a video. We can watch it, but we can't touch it or feed it or drink it," Ben says.
+
+"Drink it? Why would I drink it?" Sara asks. She thinks Ben is silly.
+
+"I don't know, Sara. But some people drink things that are not normal. Like soap or paint or glue. They are bad for you. They can make you sick. You should only drink water or juice or milk," Ben says.
+
+"I know, Ben. I am not a baby. I only drink normal things. But I am thirsty now. Can we go get some water?" Sara asks.
+
+"Okay, Sara. Let's go. But don't forget the cell. We have to put it back in the box. Maybe someone is looking for it," Ben says.
+
+"Okay, Ben. I will be careful. Thank you for letting me see the cell. It is very fun and cool. But you are more fun and cool. You are my friend," Sara says.
+
+"You are welcome, Sara. And you are my friend too. Come on, let's go," Ben says.
+
+They hold hands and walk to the water fountain. They drink some water and feel happy. They are friends again. They put the cell back in the box and play with other toys and books. They have a good day.
+Lily likes to play with her yellow ball. She kicks it with her foot and it goes far. She runs after it and laughs. She sees a big box near the ball. She wonders what is inside.
+
+She goes to the box and tries to open it. It is hard to open. She pulls and pushes and tugs. She hears a noise from the box. It sounds like a meow. She opens the box a little more and sees a furry face.
+
+It is a kitten! A yellow kitten with green eyes. It looks at Lily and purrs. Lily is happy. She picks up the kitten and hugs it. She says, "Hello, little kitty. Do you want to play with me and my ball?" The kitten nods and licks Lily's nose. Lily smiles and puts the kitten on the ground. She kicks the ball and the kitten chases it. They play and have fun.

+One day, Mom says they have to be quiet. She has a headache. She needs to rest. Tom and Lily nod. They go to their room. They close the door.
+
+Tom wants to play with his guitar. But he knows he can't make loud noises. He has an idea. He whispers to Lily. "Let's play a game. You can be the singer and I can be the guitar player. But we have to whisper, okay?"
+
+Lily thinks that sounds fun. She nods. She puts her doll on the bed. She whispers to it. "You can be the audience. You have to clap for us."
+
+Tom and Lily start to play. Tom strums his guitar softly. He whispers the words of a song. Lily sings along. She whispers too. They sound very nice. They smile at each other.
+
+Mom hears them from her room. She smiles too. She thinks they are very sweet and strong. They can play quietly and have fun. She is proud of them. She whispers to herself. "I love you, Tom and Lily."
+Ben has a furry ball that he likes to bounce. He bounces it in his room, in the garden, and in the park. He bounces it high and low, fast and slow, and makes it spin and jump.
+
+One day, he bounces his ball too hard and it goes over the fence. He runs to the fence and looks for his ball. He sees it on the other side, near a big fire. The fire is orange and red and makes a lot of noise. Ben is scared of the fire and wants his ball back.
+
+He calls for help and his mom comes. She sees the fire and the ball and tells Ben to stay away. She gets a hose and sprays water on the fire. The fire gets smaller and smaller until it is gone. She picks up the ball and gives it to Ben. Ben is happy and hugs his mom and his ball. He says thank you and sorry. He learns to bounce his ball more carefully.
+Sara was very bossy. She liked to tell her friends what to do and how to play. She had a big tray with many toys on it. She did not like to share her toys with anyone.
+
+One day, she invited Lily and Ben to her house. She wanted to show them her tray. She said, "Look at my tray. It has many toys. They are all mine. You can only watch, but you cannot touch."
+
+Lily and Ben did not like Sara's words. They felt sad and bored. They wanted to play with the toys, too. They said, "Sara, that is not nice. You should share your toys with us. We are your friends. We can have fun together."
+
+But Sara did not listen. She said, "No, no, no. These are my toys. You have your own toys at home. Go away and leave me alone."
+
+Lily and Ben did not want to stay with Sara. They said, "Sara, you are very bossy. You are not a good friend. We do not want to play with you anymore. Goodbye."
+
+They left Sara's house and went to the park. They found other friends who were kind and generous. They shared their toys and played happily.
+
+Sara was left alone with her tray. She looked at her toys, but she did not feel happy. She felt lonely and sorry. She wished she had shared her toys with Lily and Ben. She wished she had been a better friend. She learned a lesson. She decided to be less bossy and more friendly. She hoped Lily and Ben would forgive her and play with her again.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to go to the library and look at books with many pictures. They also liked to play with the toys and puzzles in the library. They always shared and helped each other.
+
+One day, they saw a new book on the shelf. It was about animals and had an adorable cover with a fluffy bunny and a cute kitten. Lily and Ben both wanted to read it. They reached for the book at the same time.
+
+"Let me have it!" Lily said.
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Ben said.
+
+They pulled and tugged on the book. They did not want to share. They got angry and started to shout.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" the librarian said. "You are making too much noise and you are ruining the book. You need to calm down and take turns."
+
+But Lily and Ben did not listen. They kept fighting over the book. Lily was stronger than Ben. She gave a big push and made Ben fall to the floor. The book flew out of their hands and landed on a table.
+
+Lily ran to get the book. She was happy that she won. She did not care about Ben. She did not see the glass of water on the table. She knocked it over with the book. The water spilled all over the book and the table. The book got wet and ruined. The water dripped on the floor and made a big mess.
+
+The librarian saw what happened. She was very angry and sad. She took the book from Lily and scolded her. She told her that she had to pay for the book and that she was not allowed to come to the library for a week. She also told Ben that he had to help clean up the mess and that he was not allowed to come to the library for a week.
+
+Lily and Ben felt very sorry and ashamed. They had lost their favorite place to go and their best friend. They wished they had shared and played nicely. They learned a hard lesson. They never fought over a book again.
+Sara and Lily were sisters who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big dollhouse with many rooms and furniture. They pretended to be the dolls and made up stories.
+
+One day, they decided to play a game of hide and seek in the dollhouse. Sara was the seeker and Lily was the hider. Lily ran to the bedroom and hid under the bed. She was very quiet and hoped Sara would not find her.
+
+Sara looked in the kitchen, the living room, and the bathroom, but she could not see Lily. She thought Lily must be in the bedroom, so she went there. She saw the bed and lifted the blanket. She was surprised to see Lily sleeping under the bed. She had taken a nap while hiding.
+
+Sara smiled and said, "Lily, I found you! You are a very good hider, but you are also a very sleepy hider. Why did you nap under the bed?"
+
+Lily opened her eyes and yawned. She said, "I was tired from running and hiding. And the bed was cozy and warm. I did not hear you coming. Did I win the game?"
+
+Sara said, "No, you did not win the game. But you did have a nice nap. Come on, let's play something else. How about we pretend to be princesses and dance in the ballroom?"
+
+Lily liked that idea. She got out of the bed and followed Sara to the ballroom. They put on some dresses and tiaras and pretended to be graceful princesses. They danced and twirled and laughed. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But they did not notice that the door of the dollhouse was closed and locked. Their mom had locked it to keep their baby brother from messing with their toys. She did not know they were inside. She thought they were playing outside.
+
+How will Sara and Lily get out of the dollhouse? Will their mom hear them? Will their baby brother find the key? You can make up the rest of the story.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big red box on the wall. It had a sign that said "alarm". Ben was curious. He wanted to know what it did.
+
+"Can I pull it?" he asked Lily.
+
+Lily was nervous. She shook her head. "No, Ben. That is not a toy. That is for when there is a fire. If you pull it, it will make a loud noise and the firemen will come."
+
+Ben did not listen. He reached for the box. He pulled the handle. Suddenly, a loud siren went off. It hurt their ears. Ben and Lily were scared. They ran away.
+
+The firemen came to the park. They saw the alarm. They looked around. They did not see any fire. They saw Ben and Lily hiding behind a tree. They went to talk to them.
+
+"Who pulled the alarm?" one of them asked.
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other. They felt sorry. They knew they did something bad.
+
+"I did," Ben said. "I was curious. I did not know it was for fire. I am sorry."
+
+The fireman was not angry. He was glad there was no fire. He explained to Ben and Lily why the alarm was important. He told them to never pull it again unless there was a real fire. He gave them a sticker of a fire truck. He told them to be careful and have fun.
+
+Ben and Lily thanked the fireman. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with something else. They never pulled the alarm again.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw some big clouds in the sky. They knew it was going to rain soon. They ran to their mom and asked her for an umbrella.
+
+"Here you go, my darlings," mom said. "But be careful, don't go too far, and come back when the rain starts."
+
+Ben and Lily took the umbrella and ran to the park. They saw a big slide and a swing. They decided to take turns on the slide. Ben went first. He climbed up the ladder and slid down. He felt mighty and happy.
+
+"Look at me, Lily!" he shouted. "I'm so fast and brave!"
+
+Lily smiled and clapped. She wanted to try the slide too. She climbed up the ladder and held the umbrella. She thought it would be fun to slide with the umbrella. She slid down and opened the umbrella in the air. She felt mighty and happy too.
+
+"Look at me, Ben!" she shouted. "I'm flying with the umbrella!"
+
+But then, something bad happened. The wind was strong and it blew the umbrella away. Lily lost her grip and fell off the slide. She landed on the grass and hurt her knee. She started to cry.
+
+Ben ran to her and hugged her. He felt sorry and scared. He saw the umbrella flying far away. He knew mom would be angry. He also saw some other kids laughing at them. He felt embarrass and sad.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" he asked.
+
+"No, Ben," Lily sobbed. "I'm hurt and I lost the umbrella. Mom will be mad and the kids are mean."
+
+Ben wiped her tears and kissed her knee. He tried to make her feel better.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily," he said. "Mom will understand and the kids are silly. You're still my mighty and happy sister. And I'm still your mighty and happy brother. We'll find the umbrella and go home together."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged him. She felt a little better. She still loved her brother. They got up and looked for the umbrella. They hoped mom would not be too mad. They hoped the rain would not start soon. They hoped they would still have fun.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toy kitchen. They have a scale, a bowl, a spoon and some butter. They want to make a cake for their mom.
+
+"Let's weigh the butter first," Anna says. She puts the butter on the scale and looks at the number. "It says four. Is that enough?"
+
+Ben shakes his head. "No, we need more. The recipe says six." He takes another piece of butter and adds it to the scale. "Now it says six. Good!"
+
+They put the butter in the bowl and use the spoon to mash it. "This is fun," Ben says. "The butter is soft and yellow."
+
+Anna nods. "Yes, it is. Now we need to add some sugar and flour and eggs. Can you help me?"
+
+Ben smiles. "Of course. I like to help you. You are my big sister."
+
+They work together to measure and mix the other ingredients. Then they pour the batter into a pan and ask their mom to put it in the oven.
+
+"Mom, we made a cake for you," Anna says. "We weighed the butter and everything."
+
+Mom hugs them and says, "Thank you, my sweeties. I'm so proud of you. You are very good cooks."
+Sara was very excited to travel on a plane with her mom and dad. She had never been on a plane before and she wanted to see the clouds and the sky. She packed her favorite toy, a teddy bear, in her backpack and put on her pink jacket.
+
+At the airport, Sara saw many people and many planes. She held her mom's hand and followed her dad to the gate. They had to wait for a long time before they could board the plane. Sara was bored and restless. She asked her mom, "When can we go on the plane?"
+
+"Soon, honey, soon. We have to be patient and wait for our turn," her mom said.
+
+But Sara was not patient. She wanted to go on the plane now. She started to whine and cry. She said, "I don't want to wait. I want to go on the plane now!"
+
+Her mom tried to calm her down and distract her with a book, but Sara was persistent. She kept crying and whining. She made a lot of noise and annoyed the other people who were waiting. Her dad was embarrassed and angry. He said, "Sara, stop it. You are being rude and selfish. You have to be quiet and respectful. If you don't behave, we will not go on the plane at all."
+
+Sara did not listen to her dad. She thought he was bluffing. She thought he would not really cancel the trip. She thought she could get what she wanted by being persistent. She cried louder and louder.
+
+But her dad was not bluffing. He was serious. He had enough of Sara's tantrum. He said, "That's it. We are not going on the plane. We are going home. You have ruined the trip for everyone."
+
+He picked up Sara and her backpack and walked away from the gate. Sara was shocked and scared. She realized she had made a big mistake. She had lost the chance to travel on the plane and see the clouds and the sky. She had disappointed her mom and dad. She had learned a hard lesson.
+
+She sobbed and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, dad. I was wrong. I should have been patient and quiet. Please, can we go on the plane?"
+
+But it was too late. The plane had left without them. Sara had missed her opportunity. She had to go home with her mom and dad and her teddy bear. She had to wait for another time to travel on a plane. She hoped she would get another chance. She hoped she would be more patient and respectful next time. She hoped her mom and dad would forgive her.
+Tim and Kim were playing in the park. They liked to look for bugs and rocks and leaves. They saw a big pile of dirt and ran to it. Maybe they could find something cool there.
+
+They dug and dug with their hands and their sticks. They found some worms and some stones and some shiny things. But then they saw something white and hard. It looked like a bone.
+
+"Look, Tim, what is this?" Kim asked.
+
+Tim looked at it and felt scared. He remembered what his dad told him once. "That is a skeleton, Kim. It is what is left of a dead animal or person. It is very old and disgusting. We should not touch it."
+
+Kim felt scared too. She dropped the bone and backed away. She did not like skeletons. They were creepy and gross. She wanted to go home.
+
+"Let's go, Tim. I don't want to play here anymore. Maybe we can solve a puzzle or draw a picture at home. That is more fun and less scary."
+
+Tim agreed. He did not want to play here anymore either. He followed Kim and they ran to their mom. They told her what they saw and she hugged them.
+
+"It's okay, kids. You are very brave and smart. Sometimes we find things that we don't like or understand. But we can always learn from them and be curious. Maybe we can go to the library and find a book about skeletons. They are not so disgusting when you know more about them. They are part of nature and history. Would you like that?"
+
+Tim and Kim nodded. They felt better. They liked to learn new things. Maybe skeletons were not so bad after all. They went to the library with their mom and found a book about skeletons. They looked at the pictures and read the words. They learned a lot and had fun. They solved their fear of skeletons.
+Sara likes to sing. She sings when she wakes up, when she plays, and when she goes to bed. She sings songs about the sun, the moon, the stars, and the animals.
+
+One night, Sara hears a new sound outside her window. It is not a car, or a dog, or a cat. It is an owl. The owl says "hoo, hoo, hoo". Sara thinks the owl is singing too. She wants to sing with the owl.
+
+She opens her window and says "hello, owl". The owl looks at her with big eyes. Sara sings a song about the night, the trees, the wind, and the owl. The owl listens and nods. Then the owl sings back. He sings a song about the dark, the mice, the hunt, and the moon. Sara listens and smiles.
+
+They sing together for a long time. The night is mild and quiet. Sara feels happy and sleepy. She says "good night, owl". The owl says "hoo, hoo, hoo". Sara closes her window and goes to bed. She dreams of the owl and his song.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside. They have a big kite. The kite is red and blue and has a long tail. They want to make the kite soar in the sky.
+
+They run with the kite. The wind is strong. The kite goes up, up, up. They hold the string. They are happy. They see the kite soar high and fast. They laugh and shout.
+
+"Look, Tom, the kite is like a bird!" Mia says.
+
+"Yes, Mia, it is. It is a funny bird. It has no wings, only paper and sticks." Tom says.
+
+They watch the kite for a long time. They have fun. Then, they hear a bell. It is time to go inside. They have to do math. Math is hard. They do not like math.
+
+They pull the kite down. They fold it and put it in a bag. They walk to the door. They are sad. They do not want to do math. They want to play with the kite.
+
+"Can we play with the kite again tomorrow?" Mia asks.
+
+"Sure, Mia, we can. Maybe we can learn some math from the kite. How many colors does it have? How long is the tail? How high does it soar?" Tom says.
+
+Mia thinks. She smiles. She likes Tom's idea. Maybe math can be funny, too. Maybe math can help them make the kite soar better. She nods.
+
+"Okay, Tom, let's do that. Let's do math and then play with the kite. That sounds fun." Mia says.
+
+They go inside. They do math. They learn some new things. They are not sad anymore. They are proud. They are ready to play with the kite again. They are friends. They have a big kite. The kite is red and blue and has a long tail. They make the kite soar in the sky.
+Tom and Lily are playing with blocks. They like to build towers and houses and cars. Tom has a big block with a zero on it. He thinks it is funny.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a zero block. It is round and empty. Do you want it?" Tom asks.
+
+Lily shakes her head. She has a block with a one on it. She thinks it is better.
+
+"No, thank you, Tom. I like my one block. It is straight and full. It can make many things. Zero can make nothing," Lily says.
+
+Tom feels sad. He likes his zero block. He wants to show Lily that zero can make something too. He has an idea.
+
+"Wait, Lily, I can turn my zero block. Look, now it is not a zero. It is a different shape. Do you know what it is?" Tom says.
+
+Lily looks at Tom's block. He has turned it sideways. Now it is not round and empty. It is long and thin. Lily thinks hard. She knows what it is.
+
+"It is a stick, Tom. You made a stick with your zero block. That is clever. Can I try?" Lily says.
+
+Tom smiles. He is happy. He gives his zero block to Lily. She turns it sideways too. She makes a stick. Then she turns it back. She makes a zero. They take turns making sticks and zeros. They have fun.
+
+"Zero is not nothing, Tom. Zero is something. It can turn and change. It is difficult, but it is fun," Lily says.
+
+Tom nods. He agrees. He likes his zero block. He likes Lily. They are friends. They play with blocks. They make many things.
+Anna was curious about the snow. She wanted to touch it and make a snowman. She put on her hat, coat, boots and gloves and ran outside. She saw the white snow everywhere and felt happy.
+
+She saw a big pile of snow and decided to dig a hole in it. She used her hands and a small shovel. She made a big hole and crawled inside. She thought it was like a secret cave. She said to herself, "This is fun!"
+
+But soon she felt very cold. The snow was cold and wet and made her shiver. She also felt a tickle in her nose and sneezed. She said, "Oh no, I have a cold!" She wanted to go back inside and get warm.
+
+She crawled out of the hole and saw her mom standing by the door. Her mom looked worried and said, "Anna, what are you doing? You are all wet and cold. Come inside, you need to heal your cold."
+
+Anna nodded and ran to her mom. Her mom hugged her and took her inside. She gave her a warm blanket, a cup of hot chocolate and a kiss. She said, "You are very curious, Anna, but you also need to be careful. The snow is fun, but it can also make you sick. Next time, don't stay outside too long and wear more clothes."
+
+Anna smiled and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I love the snow, but I also love you. Thank you for helping me heal my cold." She drank her hot chocolate and felt better. She learned a lesson and decided to be more careful next time.
+Sara and Ben like to collect things. They collect rocks, shells, leaves and bugs. They have a big box where they keep their collections. They are proud of their box.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their mom. They see a big pile of earth. It is brown and soft. They wonder what is inside the earth.
+
+"Can we dig in the earth, mom?" Sara asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful and don't make a mess," mom says.
+
+Sara and Ben take their shovels and start to dig. They find many things in the earth. They find worms, roots, seeds and coins. They are happy and excited.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a shiny coin!" Sara says.
+
+"Wow, Sara, that is a rich coin! Maybe it is very old," Ben says.
+
+They put the coin in their box. They also put some worms, roots and seeds in their box. They think the earth is a good place to collect things. They thank the earth for giving them gifts. They hug each other and smile.
+Ben and Mia like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is the motor car. The motor car can make noises and move by itself. Ben and Mia pretend to drive the motor car around the room.
+
+One day, the motor car stops working. Ben and Mia are sad. They want to play with the motor car, but it does not make noises or move. They think the motor car needs new batteries.
+
+"Where are the batteries?" Ben asks Mia.
+
+"I don't know," Mia says. "Maybe in the kitchen."
+
+Ben and Mia go to the kitchen and search for the batteries. They look in the drawers, the cabinets, and the fridge. They do not find the batteries.
+
+"Maybe in the bedroom," Mia says.
+
+Ben and Mia go to the bedroom and search for the batteries. They look under the bed, in the closet, and in the toy box. They do not find the batteries.
+
+"Maybe in the living room," Ben says.
+
+Ben and Mia go to the living room and search for the batteries. They look on the sofa, behind the TV, and under the rug. They do not find the batteries.
+
+They are about to give up, when they see their dad coming home. He has a bag in his hand.
+
+"Hi, kids," he says. "I have something for you."
+
+He opens the bag and takes out a pack of batteries. He gives it to Ben and Mia.
+
+"Batteries!" they shout. "Thank you, dad!"
+
+They run to the motor car and put the batteries in. The motor car makes noises and moves again. Ben and Mia are happy. They hug their dad.
+
+"You are the best, dad," they say. "You are very useful."
+Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a pond with many ducks. They wanted to feed the ducks some bread.
+
+"Look, Tom, a white duck!" Lila said. "It is rare. I never saw a white duck before."
+
+Tom nodded. He broke a piece of bread and threw it to the white duck. The white duck swam to the bread and ate it. It quacked happily.
+
+"Can we enter the pond, Lila?" Tom asked. "I want to touch the white duck."
+
+Lila shook her head. "No, Tom, we can't. The pond is wet and cold. And the ducks might bite us. We can watch them from here."
+
+Tom pouted. He wanted to enter the pond. He saw a big rock near the pond. He had an idea. He ran to the rock and climbed on it. He thought he could jump to the white duck.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing?" Lila shouted. "Get down from there. It is dangerous."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He jumped from the rock to the pond. He missed the white duck. He landed in the water. He splashed and screamed. The water was wet and cold. The ducks were scared and angry. They quacked loudly and bit Tom.
+
+Lila ran to the pond. She saw Tom in the water. She was scared and sad. She called for help. A man came and pulled Tom out of the pond. He wrapped him in a towel. He scolded him for being silly.
+
+"Tom, you are very naughty. You could have drowned. You should not enter the pond. You should listen to Lila. She is smart and careful."
+
+Tom was wet and cold. He was sorry and ashamed. He cried and hugged Lila. He said he was sorry.
+
+Lila hugged him back. She said she forgave him. She said she was glad he was safe.
+
+They went home with the man. They told their mom what happened. Their mom was angry and worried. She dried Tom and gave him some soup. She said he had to stay in bed. She said he had to learn his lesson.
+
+Lila and Tom said they learned their lesson. They said they would not enter the pond again. They said they would be good and listen. They said they loved their mom and each other.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had many toys in her closet, but she always wanted more. One day, she saw a big box in the living room. She wondered what was inside. She thought it might be a new toy for her.
+
+She ran to the box and tried to open it. But it was too heavy and too hard. She could not open it. She felt angry and sad. She wanted to see what was inside. She did not care if it was for someone else. She did not listen to her mom, who told her to leave the box alone.
+
+She went to the kitchen and got a knife. She thought she could use the knife to open the box. She did not know that knives were dangerous and could hurt her. She did not think about the harm she could do to the box or to herself.
+
+She went back to the living room and stabbed the box with the knife. She made a big hole in the box. She was happy. She looked inside the box. But she did not see a toy. She saw a snake. A big, scary snake. The snake was angry. It had been sleeping in the box. It did not like to be disturbed. It did not like to be stabbed. It hissed and bit Lily on the hand.
+
+Lily screamed and dropped the knife. She felt a lot of pain in her hand. She saw blood on her hand. She was scared and sorry. She cried and called for her mom. Her mom came and saw what happened. She was shocked and worried. She took Lily to the hospital. She told Lily that the snake was harmless, but it still hurt her. She told Lily that the box was a gift for her uncle, who liked snakes. She told Lily that she should not have opened the box. She told Lily that she should have listened to her mom. She told Lily that she should have been happy with her toys in her closet. She told Lily that she loved her, but she was very disappointed.
+
+Lily learned a lesson that day. She learned that opening things that did not belong to her was wrong and dangerous. She learned that knives were not toys and could hurt her and others. She learned that she should listen to her mom and respect her rules. She learned that she should be grateful for what she had and not be greedy for what she did not have. She learned that she loved her mom and her uncle, even if they liked different things. She learned that she was sorry and wanted to be a good girl. She said sorry to her mom and her uncle. She said sorry to the snake. She said sorry to herself. She hugged her mom and her uncle. She hugged her toys in her closet. She was happy.
+Lily loves books. She likes to look at the pictures and hear the stories. She goes to the library with her mom every week. The library is a big and modern building. It has many books and computers and toys.
+
+One day, Lily sees a book she likes very much. It has a pink cover and a princess on it. She wants to borrow it and take it home. She asks her mom to lend her the library card.
+
+"Mom, can I have the card, please? I want this book," Lily says.
+
+"Sure, honey, but you have to be careful with it. You have to return it in two weeks, okay?" Mom says.
+
+"Okay, Mom, I will," Lily says. She takes the card and goes to the counter. She gives the card and the book to the lady. The lady scans them and gives them back to Lily.
+
+"Here you go, sweetie. Enjoy your book," the lady says.
+
+Lily is very happy. She hugs the book and thanks the lady. She runs back to her mom and shows her the book.
+
+"Look, Mom, I have a princess book! Can we read it together?" Lily says.
+
+"Of course, darling. Let's find a cozy spot and read it," Mom says.
+
+They go to a corner of the library where there are some cushions and chairs. They sit down and open the book. Lily is excited to see the pictures and hear the story.
+
+But then, something bad happens. A boy comes over and snatches the book from Lily's hands. He says it is his book and he wants it back.
+
+"Hey, give me that! That's my book! I saw it first!" the boy says.
+
+"No, it's not! It's mine! I borrowed it from the library!" Lily says.
+
+They both pull the book and shout at each other. Mom and the lady hear the noise and come over. They see the book and the children.
+
+"What's going on here? Why are you fighting over this book?" Mom says.
+
+"He took it from me! It's mine!" Lily says.
+
+"No, it's mine! I want it!" the boy says.
+
+The lady looks at the book and the card. She sees that the book belongs to the library and that Lily borrowed it with her mom's card.
+
+"Stop it, both of you. This book is not yours or his. It is the library's book. Lily borrowed it with her mom's card, so she can keep it for two weeks. Then she has to return it. Do you understand?" the lady says.
+
+The boy looks at the lady and the card. He realizes that he was wrong. He feels sorry for taking the book from Lily.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't know it was the library's book. I thought it was yours. Can I look at it for a minute?" the boy says.
+
+Lily is still angry, but she is also kind. She sees that the boy likes the book too. She decides to share it with him.
+
+"Okay, you can look at it. But only for a minute. Then you have to give it back to me," Lily says.
+
+She hands the book to the boy. He opens it and looks at the pictures. He smiles and says thank you.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. The book is very nice. I like the princess too. Maybe we can read it together sometime," the boy says.
+
+He gives the book back to Lily. She takes it and smiles too.
+
+"Maybe we can. But you have to be nice and ask first. And you have to go to the library and borrow it with your own card," Lily says.
+
+The boy nods and says okay. He says he is sorry again and goes away. Lily and Mom hug and say they are proud of each other. They go back to their cozy spot and read the book. They enjoy the story and the pictures. They are happy. The end.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was a chubby prince. He had a red hat, a blue coat and a shiny sword. Anna liked to make him talk and sing and dance.
+
+One day, Anna's mom said they had to sell some of their things. They had too many things and not enough money. Anna's mom said they could keep some of their toys, but not all of them. Anna was sad. She did not want to sell her dolls, especially her chubby prince.
+
+Anna's mom took her to a big place where many people were selling and buying things. Anna saw books, clothes, toys and other things. Anna's mom put some of their things on a table and put a sign that said "For Sale". Anna held her chubby prince tightly. She did not want anyone to take him.
+
+A lady came to their table and looked at their things. She saw Anna's chubby prince and smiled. She said to Anna's mom, "How much for this doll? He is so cute and chubby. My son would love him."
+
+Anna's mom said, "He is five dollars. He is a very good doll. He can talk and sing and dance."
+
+Anna felt a tear in her eye. She did not want to sell her chubby prince. She said to the lady, "No, please. He is my friend. He is not for sale. I love him."
+
+The lady looked at Anna and saw how sad she was. She said, "Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie. I didn't know he was your friend. You can keep him. He is lucky to have you."
+
+Anna's mom hugged Anna and said, "Thank you, ma'am. You are very kind. Anna, you can keep your chubby prince. He is special to you."
+
+Anna smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. Thank you, lady. I'm happy. I love my chubby prince." She kissed her chubby prince and made him talk and sing and dance.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to throw the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they missed and the ball rolled away. They ran after the ball and laughed.
+
+One time, the ball rolled very far and went behind a big tree. Tom and Lily followed the ball. They did not see their mom and dad who were sitting on a bench. They did not see the sign that said "Do not enter".
+
+Behind the tree, they saw a group of big dogs. The dogs had sharp teeth and loud barks. They looked angry and hungry. Tom and Lily were scared. They wanted to go back to their mom and dad. But the dogs saw them and ran towards them.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom and Lily shouted. They hoped their mom and dad would hear them and come to save them. But the park was big and noisy. Their mom and dad did not hear them. They did not recognize their voices.
+
+The dogs reached Tom and Lily and bit them. They hurt them a lot. They made them bleed. Tom and Lily cried and cried. They wished they had stayed with their mom and dad. They wished they had stayed safe. But it was too late. The dogs did not stop. They ate them. The end.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs and worms. They found a large root that was sticking out of the ground. It was brown and hard and had many small hairs.
+
+"Let's pull it out!" Ben said. He grabbed one end of the root and pulled with all his might. Lily grabbed the other end and pulled too. They pulled and pulled, but the root did not move.
+
+"Maybe it is too big for us," Lily said. She let go of the root and sat on the grass. Ben did not give up. He pulled harder and harder, until he felt something give. He was so happy that he shouted, "I did it! I did it!"
+
+He looked at the root in his hands. It was not very long. It had a round and red thing at the end. It smelled funny. He showed it to Lily.
+
+"Look what I found!" he said. "It is a carrot!"
+
+Lily looked at the carrot. She smiled. She liked carrots. They were crunchy and sweet.
+
+"Can we eat it?" she asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He wiped the dirt off the carrot with his shirt. He broke it in half and gave one piece to Lily. They bit into the carrot and chewed. It was delicious.
+
+They smiled at each other and said, "Yum!" They were happy that they had released the carrot from the root. They decided to look for more carrots in the garden. They hoped they would find some large ones.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the living room. They had many toys and books, but they liked to pretend they were in a castle. They used pillows and blankets to make a big fort near the fireplace. The fireplace was warm and cozy, and they had a fireguard to keep them safe.
+
+"Look, Ben, I'm the queen and you're the king," Anna said, putting a paper crown on her head. "We have to protect our castle from the bad guys."
+
+"OK, Anna, I'm the king and you're the queen," Ben said, holding a wooden sword. "But who are the bad guys?"
+
+"Maybe they are dragons or witches or robbers," Anna said, looking around. "We have to be brave and smart."
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise outside. It sounded like a big truck or a monster. They both got scared and hugged each other.
+
+"What is that, Anna?" Ben asked, his voice shaking.
+
+"I don't know, Ben," Anna said, her eyes wide. "Maybe it's one of the bad guys. Maybe they want to take our castle."
+
+They heard the noise again, louder and closer. They saw a shadow on the wall, moving fast. They screamed and hid under the blankets.
+
+"Help, help, help!" they cried.
+
+Then, they heard another voice, a familiar voice. It was their mom.
+
+"Anna, Ben, what's wrong?" she asked, opening the door. "Why are you screaming?"
+
+She saw them under the blankets, trembling and crying. She turned on the light and saw the fireguard. She smiled and understood.
+
+"Oh, you silly kids, it's just the garbage truck," she said, lifting the blankets. "It's not a bad guy, it's just a big car that takes away the trash. It comes every week, remember?"
+
+She hugged them and kissed them on their cheeks. They felt better and stopped crying.
+
+"Sorry, mom, we were scared," Anna said, wiping her nose.
+
+"We thought it was a dragon or a witch or a robber," Ben said, sniffling.
+
+"No, no, no, it's nothing to be scared of," mom said, stroking their hair. "It's just a normal noise. You can go back to playing in your castle. But be careful with the fireplace, OK?"
+
+"OK, mom, we will," Anna and Ben said, smiling.
+
+They thanked their mom and kissed her back. Then, they went back to their fort, feeling brave and smart. They had fun playing in their castle, near the fireplace. They were not scared anymore.
+Sara and Ben were playing hide and seek in the garden. Sara was the seeker and Ben was the hider. Ben ran behind a big bush and lay down on the grass. He hoped Sara would not find him there.
+
+Sara looked around the garden. She saw a red ball, a yellow swing, a blue bike, but no Ben. She wondered where he was. She walked towards the bush and heard a small sound. She peeked behind the bush and saw Ben's foot sticking out.
+
+"Found you!" she shouted and grabbed his foot. Ben giggled and tried to pull his foot back. He felt something tickle his leg. He looked down and saw a long thread. The thread was from his sock. It had a hole in it.
+
+"Hey, look at your sock!" Sara said. "It has a big hole and a long thread. How did that happen?"
+
+Ben shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe I stretched it too much when I put it on. Or maybe the cat scratched it. Or maybe a bug ate it."
+
+Sara laughed. "You need a new sock, Ben. That one is no good. Come on, let's go inside and ask mom for a new sock. Maybe she can fix the hole with a needle."
+
+Ben nodded. He got up and followed Sara. He hoped mom had a sock that matched his other one. He did not want to wear two different socks. He thought that would look funny. He liked his socks to be the same.
+Lily was a doctor. She liked to help people who were sick or hurt. She wore a white coat and a stethoscope. She worked in a big building with many rooms.
+
+One night, Lily was very tired. She wanted to go home and sleep. But her phone rang. It was a call from another doctor. He said, "Lily, I need your help. There is a patient who is very sick. He has a bad pain in his chest. Can you come and see him?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I will come. Where is he?" The other doctor said, "He is in room 12. Hurry, please." Lily put on her coat and ran to room 12.
+
+It was dark in the hall. Lily could not see well. She looked for the number 12 on the doors. She found it and opened it. She saw a man lying on a bed. He looked pale and scared. He had many wires and tubes on him.
+
+Lily said, "Hello, I am Lily. I am a doctor. I am here to help you. What is your name?" The man said, "My name is Sam. I am glad you came. I have a bad pain in my chest. It hurts a lot."
+
+Lily said, "Don't worry, Sam. I will check you and give you some medicine. You will feel better soon." She took her stethoscope and listened to his heart. She gave him a pill and a shot. She smiled and said, "You are a brave patient, Sam. You will be okay."
+
+Sam said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good doctor. You made me feel better." He closed his eyes and fell asleep. Lily said, "You are welcome, Sam. You need to rest now. I will come back later to see you." She turned on a small light and left the room.
+
+Lily was happy. She helped a patient who was very sick. She did her job well. She was not tired anymore. She walked back to her office and said, "Good night, everyone. I am going home now." She took off her coat and stethoscope and went to her car. She drove home and slept. She dreamed of being a doctor.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. But they also liked to explore. They saw a big fence with a sign that said "Keep Out". They wondered what was behind the fence.
+
+"Let's go and see," said Ben. He was brave and curious.
+
+"No, we can't," said Lily. She was careful and scared. "It's not safe. Mom and Dad will be angry."
+
+Ben did not listen. He climbed the fence and jumped to the other side. Lily stayed behind and watched. She felt troubled.
+
+Ben saw a lot of animals in cages. He saw lions, tigers, bears and monkeys. He thought they were cool and wanted to get closer. He did not see the man with a gun who was guarding the animals.
+
+"Hey, kid, what are you doing here?" the man shouted. He saw Ben and ran towards him. He was angry and mean.
+
+Ben was scared. He realized he made a mistake. He wanted to escape. He looked for a way out. He saw a hole in the fence. He ran to the hole and tried to squeeze through.
+
+But the hole was too small. Ben was stuck. He cried for help.
+
+Lily heard Ben's cry. She felt sorry for him. She wanted to help him. She looked for something to make the hole bigger. She saw a stick. She grabbed the stick and ran to the fence. She poked the stick in the hole and pushed hard.
+
+The hole got bigger. Ben was free. He crawled through the hole and hugged Lily.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," he said. "You saved me. I'm sorry I did not listen to you. You were right. It was not safe."
+
+Lily smiled. She was happy and relieved. She forgave Ben.
+
+"Let's go back to the park," she said. "We can play there. It's fun and safe."
+
+Ben agreed. He learned his lesson. He chose to follow Lily. They ran back to the park and played until Mom and Dad came to pick them up. They did not tell them about their adventure. They kept it a secret.
+Tom likes to think of new games to play. He thinks of games with cars, balls, blocks and books. He thinks of games with his toys and his friends. He thinks of games all day long.
+
+One day, Tom thinks of a game with his jacket. He puts on his jacket and zips it up. He pretends his jacket is a cape and he is a superhero. He runs around the house and the yard, saving people and animals. He says, "I am Super Tom! I can fly and help everyone!"
+
+Mom sees Tom playing with his jacket. She smiles and says, "You are very busy, Tom. You are having fun with your jacket. But it is warm outside. You do not need your jacket. You can take it off and play with something else."
+
+Tom says, "No, Mom. I need my jacket. It is my cape. It is part of my game. I am Super Tom. I have to save the world!"
+
+Mom says, "Okay, Tom. You can keep your jacket. But you have to drink some water and rest a little. You do not want to get too hot and tired. You can save the world later."
+
+Tom says, "Okay, Mom. I will drink some water and rest a little. But I will not take off my jacket. It is my cape. I am Super Tom. I like to think of new games to play."
+Timmy liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. He was very proud of his cars and did not like to share them with anyone. He thought he was very intelligent and knew everything about cars.
+
+One day, his friend Lily came to his house to play. Lily saw Timmy's cars and asked him if she could play with them too. Timmy did not want to lend his cars to Lily, but he did not want to be rude. He said, "You can play with one car, but only for a little while. And you have to be very careful with it. It is my favorite car. It is red and shiny and fast. It is a lawyer car."
+
+Lily was happy and thanked Timmy. She took the red car and started to make it zoom around the floor. She pretended that the car was a lawyer who helped people with their problems. She said, "I am a lawyer car. I am very smart and good. I can solve any case. Vroom, vroom!"
+
+Timmy watched Lily play with his car. He felt jealous and angry. He wanted his car back. He did not like how Lily made the car talk. He thought she was silly and stupid. He said, "Give me back my car, Lily. You have played with it enough. It is mine, not yours. And it is not a lawyer car. It is just a car."
+
+Lily did not want to give back the car. She liked the car very much. She said, "No, Timmy. I want to play with it more. It is a lawyer car. It is very fun and nice. You are mean and selfish. You have many cars, but you do not share them. You are not a good friend."
+
+Timmy and Lily started to fight over the car. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not listen to each other. They did not care about anything else. They only wanted the car.
+
+But the car did not like to be fought over. It did not like to be pulled and pushed and shouted at. It did not like to be called a lawyer car or just a car. It wanted to be free and happy. It wanted to be its own car.
+
+So the car did something that no one expected. It started to move by itself. It escaped from Timmy and Lily's hands. It zoomed across the floor, faster and faster. It headed towards the window, which was open. It jumped out of the window and flew into the air. It left Timmy and Lily behind, stunned and sad.
+
+The car was gone. Timmy and Lily had lost it. They had lost their chance to play with it. They had lost their chance to be friends. They had learned a hard lesson. They had learned that being greedy and rude does not pay. They had learned that sharing and caring is better. But it was too late. The end.
+Lily and Max were playing dress-up in their room. They had a big box of jewelry that belonged to their mom. Lily put on a shiny necklace and a sparkly ring. Max wore a funny hat and a big watch.
+
+"Let's pretend we are stars in a show," Lily said. "You can be a magician and I can be a singer."
+
+"OK," Max said. "But you have to applaud for me when I do my tricks."
+
+They went to the living room, where their dad was sitting on the couch. They asked him to be their audience.
+
+"Welcome to our show," Lily said. "First, Max will do some magic for you."
+
+Max took out a wand and a scarf from his hat. He waved the wand and said, "Abracadabra!" He pulled the scarf and showed a toy rabbit. "Ta-da!" he said.
+
+"Wow, that's amazing!" their dad said. He clapped his hands and applauded for Max.
+
+"Thank you, thank you," Max said. He bowed and gave the rabbit to Lily.
+
+"Now, Lily will sing a song for you," Max said. He handed her a microphone.
+
+Lily smiled and held the microphone to her mouth. She sang a song that she learned at school. She sang very loud and fast. She moved her arms and legs to the music.
+
+"La, la, la, I love to sing, sing, sing," she sang.
+
+"That's wonderful!" their dad said. He clapped his hands and applauded for Lily.
+
+"Thank you, thank you," Lily said. She bowed and gave the microphone to Max.
+
+They hugged each other and said, "We did it! We are stars!"
+
+Their dad got up from the couch and hugged them too. He said, "You are the best stars I have ever seen. I'm so proud of you."
+
+He gave them each a kiss and a cookie. They ate their cookies and shared their jewelry. They were very happy.
+Tom likes to play with his dad's computer. He likes to press the buttons and see the pictures on the screen. He thinks he is very smart and proud. One day, when his dad is not home, he finds the computer in the office. He decides to play with it.
+
+He presses many buttons and makes many noises. He does not know what he is doing. He thinks he is having fun. But he is making a big mistake. He breaks the computer. He makes it stop working. He makes it lose all the important things that his dad needs.
+
+When his dad comes home, he sees the broken computer. He is very angry and sad. He asks Tom what he did. Tom is scared and sorry. He tells his dad he was playing with the computer. He tells his dad he did not mean to break it. He tells his dad he is sorry.
+
+But his dad is not happy. He is very upset. He tells Tom he is very naughty and careless. He tells Tom he has to pay for the computer. He tells Tom he has to go to his room and think about what he did. He tells Tom he is not proud of him.
+
+Tom feels very bad. He cries and cries. He wishes he did not play with the computer. He wishes he did not break it. He wishes he did not make his dad angry and sad. He wishes he could make his dad proud of him. But he does not know how. He is very unhappy. He has a bad ending.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car. They took turns to drive the car around the yard, pretending to go on adventures.
+
+One day, Tim wanted to drive the car for a long time. He did not want to share with Kim. He said, "This is my car. You can't have it." Kim felt sad and angry. She said, "No, it's our car. We have to share." They started to fight over the car, pulling and pushing and shouting.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came outside. She saw the twins fighting and the car broken in two. She was very upset. She said, "What have you done? You broke your car. You were not nice to each other. You have to say sorry and hug."
+
+Tim and Kim looked at the car and felt sorry. They did not mean to break it. They said sorry to each other and hugged. Mom smiled and said, "That's good. I'm glad you forgave each other. Now, let's go inside and have some lunch. I made your favorite sauce."
+
+The twins followed Mom inside. They smelled the sauce and felt hungry. They sat at the table and ate their pasta with sauce. It was warm and yummy. They said, "Thank you, Mom. This is the best sauce ever." Mom said, "You're welcome. I love you both. And I love your car too. Maybe we can fix it later."
+
+The twins nodded and smiled. They learned that sharing is better than fighting, and that forgiving is better than staying angry. They also learned that Mom makes the best sauce in the world. They were happy and full. They decided to play nicely with their car after lunch.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big frame with swings and slides. They run to the frame and want to play.
+
+"Can I seat on the swing?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"OK, but I want to seat on the slide," Ben says.
+
+They seat on the frame and have fun. They go up and down, back and forth. They laugh and shout.
+
+Then they see a cute dog. The dog is brown and fluffy. It has a red collar and a tag. The dog runs to them and wags its tail.
+
+"Hello, doggy!" Lily says. She pets the dog and gives it a hug.
+
+"Who are you?" Ben asks. He reads the tag. It says "Spot".
+
+"Spot is a nice name," Ben says. He scratches the dog behind the ears.
+
+The dog licks their faces and barks. It likes Lily and Ben.
+
+They play with the dog for a while. They throw a ball and the dog fetches it. They run and chase the dog.
+
+They are happy and make a new friend.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big furry dog named Spot who followed them everywhere. One day, they saw a kayak by the lake. It was red and shiny and had two seats.
+
+"Let's go on the kayak!" Lily said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"Okay, but we have to share," Max said. "You can sit in front and I'll sit in back."
+
+They put on life jackets and climbed into the kayak. Spot barked and ran along the shore. He wanted to go with them, but he was too big for the kayak.
+
+Lily and Max paddled on the lake. They saw fish and ducks and frogs. They sang songs and told jokes. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they saw a big wave coming. It was from a motorboat that was going too fast. Lily and Max got scared. They tried to steer away from the wave, but it was too late. The wave hit the kayak and tipped it over. Lily and Max fell into the water.
+
+"Help!" they cried. "We can't swim!"
+
+Spot heard their cries. He was a good dog who loved his twins. He jumped into the water and swam to them. He grabbed Lily by her life jacket and pulled her to the shore. Then he went back and did the same for Max.
+
+Lily and Max were wet and cold and scared, but they were safe. They hugged Spot and thanked him. He licked their faces and wagged his tail. He was a hero.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They learned that kayaking was fun, but also dangerous. They learned that they had to be careful and watch out for waves. And they learned that sharing was good, but sometimes they also needed to share their furry dog.
+Tom and Lily like to play with blocks. They build houses, towers, bridges and cars. They are very creative. They use their brains and their hands to make different things.
+
+One day, they decide to make a big castle with all their blocks. They work hard to stack the blocks and make walls and doors and windows. They work together and help each other. They use their muscles to lift and move the blocks.
+
+"Look, Lily, our castle is almost done!" Tom says. "We just need a roof and a flag."
+
+"OK, Tom, let's find some more blocks for the roof," Lily says. "And I have an idea for the flag."
+
+Lily runs to her room and comes back with a scarf. She ties it to a stick and puts it on top of the castle. The scarf is red and blue and yellow. It flaps in the wind.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that's a beautiful flag!" Tom says. "You are so creative!"
+
+"Thank you, Tom, you are too!" Lily says. "We made a great castle!"
+
+They hug and smile. They are proud of their work. They have fun playing with their castle. They use their imagination to pretend they are kings and queens. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are playing with blocks. They like to build towers and houses and cars. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. Some are smooth and some are rough.
+
+Anna finds a block that has a light on it. She pushes a button and the light turns on and off. She shows Ben and says, "Look, a light block! It is smooth and shiny. I want to attach it to my tower."
+
+Ben says, "Wow, that is a cool block. Can I see it?" He reaches for the light block, but Anna pulls it away.
+
+"No, it is mine. I found it first. You have many other blocks. Go away," Anna says. She is angry and does not want to share.
+
+Ben is sad and hurt. He says, "That is not nice, Anna. Sharing is good. We are friends. Friends share. Please let me play with the light block too."
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She remembers that Ben is her friend and that he always shares with her. She feels sorry and says, "You are right, Ben. Sharing is good. I am sorry. Here, you can play with the light block too. We can attach it to our tower together."
+
+Ben smiles and says, "Thank you, Anna. You are a good friend. I am sorry too. Let's make our tower bigger and brighter."
+
+They hug and start to attach the light block and other blocks to their tower. They have fun and are happy.
+Tim and Lily were playing in their room. They had many toys, but they liked to pretend with their rug. The rug was big and soft and had many colors. They could make it into a castle, a boat, a cave, or anything they wanted.
+
+One day, they decided to play magic with the rug. They took a wand from their toy box and waved it over the rug. They said some funny words and hoped something would happen.
+
+"Abra-cadabra, rug, show us something new!" they said together.
+
+Suddenly, the rug started to move and shake. Tim and Lily gasped and stepped back. They saw something appear from under the rug. It was a small, furry animal with long ears and a fluffy tail. It looked like a bunny, but it had a shiny collar and a bow tie. It was a smart bunny!
+
+"Hello, Tim and Lily," the bunny said in a friendly voice. "I'm Benny, the magic bunny. I came from the rug to play with you. Do you want to see some tricks?"
+
+Tim and Lily were amazed and excited. They had never seen a talking bunny before, let alone a magic one. They nodded and clapped their hands.
+
+"Yes, please, Benny, show us some tricks!" they said.
+
+Benny smiled and hopped out of the rug. He took his wand from his collar and started to do some magic. He made flowers, balloons, candy, and other fun things appear from his hat. He also made the rug change into different shapes and patterns. He made Tim and Lily laugh and cheer.
+
+They had a wonderful time with Benny, the magic bunny. He was the best thing that ever appeared from their rug.
+Lily liked to play the piano. She liked to make music with her fingers. She learned many songs from her mom and dad. They were proud of her.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big piano in the park. It was for a show. Lily wanted to play it. She ran to the piano and climbed on the stool. She touched the keys and made a loud sound.
+
+But the piano was not happy. It was wet from the rain. The water made the piano sick. The keys did not sound good. The piano was angry at Lily. It said, "You are too heavy for me. You hurt me. Go away!"
+
+Lily was scared. She jumped off the stool and ran to her mom and dad. They hugged her and said, "Lily, you should not play with things that are not yours. You should ask first. You should be careful and gentle. You should respect other people's things."
+
+Lily was sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, piano. I'm sorry, mom and dad. I just wanted to play. I did not know the piano was wet and sick. I will not do it again."
+
+The piano heard Lily. It said, "It's okay, Lily. I forgive you. You are a good girl. You can play me another day, when I am dry and well. But please, be light and soft. I am old and fragile."
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Thank you, piano. I will be light and soft. I will wait for you to get better. I hope you feel better soon."
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: The story teaches the value of respect, responsibility, and forgiveness. Lily learns to respect other people's things, to be responsible for her actions, and to ask for forgiveness when she makes a mistake. The piano also shows forgiveness and kindness to Lily.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the woods. They saw many animals there, like birds, rabbits and squirrels. One day, they saw a deer. The deer was big and brown, with long legs and horns. Tom and Lily wanted to touch the deer.
+
+"Hello, deer!" Tom said. "Can we be your friends?"
+
+The deer looked at them and shook his head. He did not want to be friends. He was independent. He liked to live alone in the woods. He did not need anyone.
+
+"Please, deer!" Lily said. "We just want to pet you. You are so soft and pretty."
+
+The deer snorted and ran away. He did not like the children. They were noisy and annoying. He wanted to be free.
+
+Tom and Lily were sad. They followed the deer. They did not listen to their mom, who told them to stay close to the house. They ran after the deer, deeper and deeper into the woods.
+
+The deer was fast and smart. He knew the woods well. He hid behind the trees and bushes. He did not want to be found.
+
+Tom and Lily were not fast or smart. They did not know the woods well. They got lost. They could not find the deer or the way back home.
+
+They started to cry. They were hungry and thirsty and scared. They did not see any animals or people. They only saw shadows and thorns and rocks.
+
+They suffered a lot. They wished they had listened to their mom. They wished they had left the deer alone. They wished they had never gone into the woods. But it was too late. They never found the deer or the house. They never saw their mom again. The end.
+Lily and Sam were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They also liked to look at the fish and shells that they could find.
+
+One day, they saw a big boat on the water. It had a sign that said "Shark Tour". Lily and Sam wanted to go on the boat and see the sharks. They asked their mom and dad if they could go.
+
+"Please, please, can we go on the shark boat?" they begged.
+
+Mom and dad looked at each other and smiled. They said, "OK, but you have to be very careful and listen to the guide. Sharks are not like other fish. They can be dangerous."
+
+Lily and Sam were very happy and excited. They put on their life jackets and followed their mom and dad to the boat. The guide welcomed them and told them some facts about sharks. He said that sharks had many teeth and could smell blood. He also said that sharks came in different colors and sizes.
+
+The boat took them to a spot where there were many sharks in the water. The guide gave them binoculars and pointed out the different kinds of sharks. Lily and Sam gazed at the sharks with wonder and curiosity. They saw a blue shark that was very long and sleek. They saw a hammerhead shark that had a funny-shaped head. They saw a tiger shark that had stripes on its body.
+
+"Wow, look at that one!" Lily said, pointing at a big shark that had a white belly and a gray back. "It's so huge!"
+
+"That's a great white shark," the guide said. "It's the biggest and most powerful shark in the ocean. It can eat seals and dolphins and even other sharks. It's very rare to see one here. You are very lucky."
+
+Lily and Sam felt a mix of fear and awe. They had never seen such a big and scary fish before. They wondered what it would be like to touch it or swim with it. They also wondered if it would try to eat them or the boat.
+
+They stayed on the boat for a while and watched the sharks swim around. They learned a lot about sharks and how they lived. They also had a lot of fun and took many pictures. They thanked the guide and went back to the shore with their mom and dad.
+
+They told their mom and dad all about the sharks and showed them their pictures. They said that they liked the sharks and wanted to see them again. They also said that they were glad that they were safe and that the sharks did not bite them or the boat.
+
+Mom and dad hugged them and said that they were proud of them for being brave and curious. They said that sharks were amazing animals and that they should respect them and protect them. They also said that they had a surprise for them.
+
+They took them to a shop that sold souvenirs and toys. They let them choose one shark toy each. Lily chose a blue shark plushie and Sam chose a great white shark figurine. They were very happy and thanked their mom and dad.
+
+They went back to their hotel and played with their shark toys. They pretended that they were sharks and chased each other around the room. They also told each other stories about sharks and what they would do if they met one again.
+
+They had a lot of fun and dreamed of sharks that night. They decided that sharks were their favorite animals and that they wanted to learn more about them. They also decided that they wanted to go on another shark tour someday.
+Sara and Ben love to race each other. They run fast in the park, in the yard, and in the house. Sometimes they race to see who can get to the door first, or who can find the most toys, or who can eat the most cookies.
+
+One day, they decide to race to the big tree in the park. They put on their shoes and jackets and run outside. Sara says, "Ready, set, go!" and they both sprint to the tree. Ben is a little faster than Sara, but Sara does not give up. She tries to catch up with him.
+
+When they get to the tree, they see something shiny hanging from a branch. It is an ornament. It is round and red and has a star on it. It looks like a Christmas ornament, but it is not Christmas. Sara and Ben wonder who put it there and why.
+
+They reach for the ornament at the same time, but Ben grabs it first. He says, "I win! I get the ornament!" Sara says, "No, that's not fair! You already won the race! Let me see it!" They start to pull on the ornament, but it is very fragile. It breaks in half and falls to the ground.
+
+Sara and Ben feel sad and sorry. They did not mean to break the ornament. They look at the pieces and see a note inside. It says, "This is a rare ornament. It belonged to my grandma. She gave it to me before she died. Please take good care of it. Love, Amy."
+
+Sara and Ben feel very bad. They broke Amy's ornament. They broke her grandma's ornament. They broke a rare ornament. They wish they could fix it. They wish they could say sorry to Amy. They wish they did not race to the tree. They hug each other and cry.
+Sam was a brown dog who liked to play with his ball. He would run and jump and catch the ball in his mouth. He was very happy when his friend Tom, a boy, came to play with him.
+
+One day, Tom threw the ball very far and Sam ran after it. He did not mind the fence or the road or the cars. He only wanted the ball. But when he got to the ball, he saw a big cat sitting on it. The cat had sharp claws and teeth and hissed at Sam.
+
+"Give me the ball, cat!" Sam barked.
+
+"No, it is my ball now!" the cat said.
+
+Sam and the cat started to fight over the ball. They bit and scratched each other. Sam was stronger, but the cat was faster. Sam got a big scratch on his ear and it hurt a lot. He cried out loud.
+
+Tom heard Sam's cry and ran to him. He saw the cat and the ball and the scratch. He was angry and scared.
+
+"Bad cat, go away!" Tom shouted. He threw a stick at the cat and the cat ran away.
+
+Tom picked up Sam and the ball and hugged them. He saw the blood on Sam's ear and said, "Oh, Sam, you are hurt. We need to go home and get a stitch for your ear."
+
+Sam licked Tom's face and wagged his tail. He was glad that Tom was his friend and saved him from the cat. He did not mind the stitch or the pain. He only wanted to play with Tom and the ball. He was very happy.
+Tom is a big dog who lives in a farm. He likes to run, play and bark with his friends. He is a dependable dog who helps the farmer watch the sheep and the cows. He is happy and strong.
+
+One day, Tom feels something itchy on his fur. He tries to scratch it, but it does not go away. He feels more and more itchy and uncomfortable. He wonders what is wrong with him. He worries that he might be sick or hurt.
+
+He goes to see his friend Lucy, a small cat who lives in the barn. Lucy is smart and knows many things. She looks at Tom's fur and sees tiny black dots. She says, "You have fleas, Tom. They are small bugs that bite and make you itchy. They are not good for you. You need to get rid of them."
+
+Tom is surprised and scared. He asks, "How do I get rid of them, Lucy? They are so small and fast. I can't catch them or see them."
+
+Lucy says, "Don't worry, Tom. I know what to do. You need to take a bath with some special soap that kills the fleas. It will make your fur clean and shiny. Then you need to comb your fur with a fine comb that removes the fleas and their eggs. It will make your fur smooth and soft. Then you need to wear a collar that keeps the fleas away. It will make your fur safe and healthy."
+
+Tom says, "Thank you, Lucy. You are a good friend. You are very helpful and kind. Will you help me do these things?"
+
+Lucy says, "Of course, Tom. I will help you. You are my friend. You are very brave and loyal. Come on, let's go to the bath."
+
+Tom and Lucy go to the bath. Tom feels nervous, but he trusts Lucy. He lets her wash him, comb him and put the collar on him. He feels better and happier. He says, "You were right, Lucy. The bath, the comb and the collar worked. I don't feel itchy anymore. I feel fresh and comfortable. The fleas are gone. You are the best, Lucy."
+
+Lucy says, "You're welcome, Tom. I'm glad you feel better. You are the best, too, Tom. Now you can go back to your farm and do your job. You are a dependable dog. The farmer and the animals need you."
+
+Tom says, "Thank you, Lucy. I will go back to my farm and do my job. I will also come back to see you and play with you. You are a smart cat. I need you, too."
+
+Tom and Lucy hug and say goodbye. They are happy and proud. They are good friends. They are not worried anymore.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. They work hard to build a big tower with blocks. They are happy.
+
+"Look, Mia, our tower is so high!" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, Tom, it is very nice. We are good builders!" Mia says.
+
+But then, the earth shakes. It is an earthquake. The blocks fall down. The cars roll away. Tom and Mia are scared. They hug each other.
+
+"Tom, Mia, are you okay?" Mom says. She runs to them. She hugs them too.
+
+"We are okay, Mom, but our tower is gone!" Tom says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom, earthquakes are not nice. They can break things. But they can't break our love. We are safe and together." Mom says.
+
+"Can we build another tower, Mom?" Mia says.
+
+"Of course, Mia, you can build anything you want. But first, let's go outside and see if everyone else is okay. Maybe we can help them too." Mom says.
+
+Tom and Mia nod. They take their blocks and cars. They follow Mom outside. They see other people and animals. They are nice. They share their toys and hugs. They work together to make things better. They are not scared anymore. They are happy.
+Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big fence. It has a sign that says "No entry". Sam wants to climb the fence. He thinks it is fun. Mia is scared. She says "No, Sam. That is bad. We can get in trouble."
+
+Sam does not listen. He climbs the fence. He sees a big building. It has bars on the windows. It is a jail. Sam is curious. He wants to see inside. He walks to the door. He tries to open it. It is locked. He hears a loud noise. It is a dog. It is angry. It runs to Sam. It barks and growls.
+
+Mia sees the dog. She is very scared. She shouts "Sam, run! The dog is mad. It will bite you." Sam is scared too. He runs back to the fence. He tries to climb it. But the fence is wet. It rained last night. Sam slips and falls. He hurts his knee. He cries.
+
+The dog catches up to Sam. It jumps on him. It licks his face. It is not angry. It is friendly. It is the jail guard's dog. It likes to play. The jail guard comes out. He sees Sam and Mia. He is not happy. He says "What are you doing here? This is a jail. You are not allowed here. You are in big trouble."
+
+Sam and Mia are sorry. They say "We are sorry, sir. We were just playing. We did not mean to be bad." The jail guard is kind. He says "I understand. But you have to be careful. This is a dangerous place. You could get hurt. Or worse. You have to follow the rules. And listen to your friend. She is smart. She knows what is right and wrong."
+
+The jail guard takes Sam and Mia back to the park. He gives them a band-aid for Sam's knee. He tells them to go home and tell their parents what happened. He says "I hope you learned your lesson. Do not climb the fence again. And do not go near the jail. It is not a place for kids. It is a place for bad people. You are good kids. You have to stay safe and happy."
+
+Sam and Mia nod. They say "Thank you, sir. We learned our lesson. We will not climb the fence again. And we will not go near the jail. We will stay safe and happy." They hug the dog. They say goodbye to the jail guard. They go home and tell their parents what happened. They are sorry. They promise to be good. They are still friends. They play in the park. But they do not climb the fence. They know it is bad. They know it is a jail. They know it is wet.
+Lily and Ben are friends who like to study animals. They have many books with pictures of animals. They also have a game where they ask each other questions about animals. They want to know everything about animals.
+
+One day, they find a new book about zebras. They are very excited. They open the book and see many black and white stripes. They start to read the book and learn many things about zebras. They learn that zebras live in Africa, that they eat grass, and that they run fast.
+
+They decide to play their game with the new book. Lily asks Ben, "How many legs does a zebra have?" Ben says, "Four." Lily says, "That's right." Ben asks Lily, "What sound does a zebra make?" Lily says, "I don't know." Ben says, "It makes a barking sound, like this: woof woof." Lily says, "That's funny." They laugh.
+
+They keep playing their game. They ask each other more questions about zebras. They become very competitive. They want to know more than the other. They start to argue. They say, "You are wrong." They say, "No, you are wrong." They say, "You are cheating." They say, "No, you are cheating." They get angry. They stop being friends.
+
+They close the book and throw it away. They do not want to study zebras anymore. They do not want to play their game anymore. They do not want to talk to each other anymore. They go to their homes and cry. They are sad. They have no friends. They have a bad ending.
+Sara and Tom liked to play with their vehicles. They had cars, trucks, buses and trains. They made noises and raced them on the floor. One day, Sara found a new vehicle in the closet. It was big and green and had four wheels. It looked like a monster truck.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Sara said. "Can we play with it, Tom?"
+
+Tom looked at the vehicle and made a face. He thought it was disgusting. It was dirty and had bugs on it. He did not want to touch it.
+
+"No, Sara, we can't play with it. It's yucky. Let's play with our other vehicles." Tom said.
+
+But Sara did not listen. She liked the vehicle. She thought it was cool and fun. She took it out of the closet and put it on the floor. She made loud noises and drove it around.
+
+"Come on, Tom, let's play with it. It's awesome." Sara said.
+
+Tom shook his head. He did not want to play with it. He moved away from Sara and played with his own vehicles. He was angry at Sara for taking the disgusting vehicle.
+
+Sara did not care. She kept playing with the vehicle. She drove it over Tom's vehicles and smashed them. She laughed and said it was a game.
+
+"Stop it, Sara, stop it!" Tom shouted. "You're ruining my vehicles. They're mine. Give me back the disgusting vehicle. I want to throw it away."
+
+But Sara did not stop. She did not give back the vehicle. She drove it faster and faster. She did not see where she was going. She did not see the stairs. She did not see the cat.
+
+The vehicle hit the cat. The cat hissed and scratched. The vehicle fell down the stairs. Sara fell with it. She screamed and cried. She hurt her head and her arm. The vehicle broke into pieces.
+
+Tom ran to Sara. He was scared and sorry. He tried to help her. He called for mom and dad. They came and saw what happened. They were shocked and angry. They took Sara to the hospital. They threw away the vehicle. They scolded Tom and Sara. They said they were naughty and careless. They said they could not play with vehicles for a long time.
+
+Sara and Tom were sad and ashamed. They wished they had not played with the disgusting vehicle. They wished they had listened to each other. They wished they had a good ending.
+Tommy liked to skip. He skipped in the park, he skipped in the school, he skipped at home. He skipped so much that his friends called him Tommy the Skipper. Tommy did not mind. He thought skipping was fun and made him happy.
+
+One day, Tommy found a drum in his toy box. He had never seen it before. He wondered who gave it to him. He decided to try it out. He took the drum and the sticks and went to the living room. He put the drum on the floor and started to bang on it. He made loud noises. He liked the noises. He skipped around the drum and banged on it some more.
+
+His mom heard the noises. She came to the living room. She saw Tommy skipping and banging on the drum. She smiled. She said, "Tommy, what are you doing? Where did you get that drum?"
+
+Tommy stopped skipping and banging. He looked at his mom. He said, "I found it in my toy box. I don't know who gave it to me. Do you know, mom?"
+
+His mom nodded. She said, "Yes, I do. It was a gift from your grandma. She sent it to you for your birthday. She wanted you to have fun with it. She loves you very much."
+
+Tommy felt happy. He said, "Thank you, mom. Thank you, grandma. I love you too. Can I keep playing with the drum?"
+
+His mom said, "Yes, you can. But not too loud, okay? You might disturb the neighbors. And maybe you can play something else besides skipping. How about singing or dancing?"
+
+Tommy thought for a moment. He said, "Okay, mom. I will try. But I still like skipping. It is my favorite thing to do."
+
+His mom hugged him. She said, "I know, Tommy. And I love you for being you. You are my special skipper."
+
+Tommy felt embarrassed. He blushed. He said, "Mom, you are making me shy. Stop it."
+
+His mom laughed. She said, "Sorry, Tommy. I can't help it. You are so cute. Now, let's play with the drum together. Maybe we can skip later."
+
+Tommy smiled. He said, "Okay, mom. Let's play. And skip. And have fun."
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big book with many pictures of animals. They are happy and sit on the floor to look at the book.
+
+"Look, Tom, a lion!" Lily says, pointing at a page. "He is big and yellow and has a long tail."
+
+"Yes, Lily, he is very nice. And look, a monkey!" Tom says, turning the page. "He is brown and has a funny face and can swing on trees."
+
+They look at more pages and see many animals. They make sounds and pretend to be the animals. They are playful and have fun.
+
+But then, Tom sees a page with a snake. He does not like snakes. He is scared and angry. He wants to make the snake go away. He grabs the page and tries to tear it.
+
+"Tom, no!" Lily says, shocked. "You cannot tear the book! It is not yours! It is bad to tear books!"
+
+But Tom does not listen. He tears the page and throws it on the floor. He feels better, but Lily feels sad. She likes the book and does not want it to be broken. She picks up the torn page and tries to fix it. She cries.
+
+Tom sees Lily crying and feels sorry. He realizes he was wrong to tear the book. He goes to Lily and says, "Lily, I am sorry. I was silly and mean. I should not have torn the book. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily looks at Tom and sees he is sorry. She says, "Tom, I forgive you. But you have to be careful with books. They are not toys. They are for learning and enjoying. You have to respect them and share them."
+
+Tom nods and hugs Lily. He says, "You are right, Lily. Books are important and precious. I will respect them and share them. And you are a good friend. Thank you for forgiving me."
+
+They smile and hug. They put the book back on the shelf and find another toy to play with. They are friends again and have learned a lesson.
+Ben and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toy soldiers. They made a war with them on the floor. They said "bang, bang" and "boom, boom" and moved their soldiers around.
+
+One day, they found a new toy in their room. It was a big ball that could glow. It had many colors on it. It looked very pretty. Ben and Sam wanted to play with it.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Ben said. "It is a magic ball. It can glow in the dark. Let's use it for our war."
+
+"OK, but I want to have it first," Sam said. "It is mine. I saw it first."
+
+"No, it is mine. I touched it first," Ben said. "Give it to me."
+
+They started to fight over the ball. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They were very angry. They did not share. They did not listen.
+
+The ball did not like that. It did not like to see them fight. It did not like to be in a war. It wanted to be in a happy place. It wanted to be with nice children.
+
+So the ball did something crazy. It started to glow very bright. It made a loud noise. It jumped out of their hands. It rolled out of the room. It went away.
+
+Ben and Sam stopped fighting. They looked at the ball. They were very surprised. They felt very sorry.
+
+"Come back, ball!" Ben said. "We are sorry. We will not fight anymore. We will share. We will be nice."
+
+"Please, ball!" Sam said. "We are sorry. We will not make a war anymore. We will play nice. We will be friends."
+
+But the ball did not come back. It was gone. Ben and Sam learned a lesson. They hugged each other. They said sorry. They cleaned up their toys. They decided to play something else. Something that did not need a ball. Something that did not need a war. Something that made them happy.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play together. One day, they have a meeting at the park. A meeting is when people talk and have fun.
+
+They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide. They run to the slide and wait for their turn. But there is a problem. The slide is wet. It rained last night.
+
+Tom goes first. He sits on the slide and pushes himself down. But he slides too fast. He cannot stop. He goes past the end of the slide and falls on the grass. He is not hurt, but he is wet and dirty.
+
+Lily sees Tom and laughs. She thinks it is funny. She says, "Tom, you are silly. You look like a mud pie."
+
+Tom laughs too. He is not mad. He says, "Lily, you are right. I am silly. But I had fun. Do you want to try the slide too?"
+
+Lily nods. She is brave. She sits on the slide and pushes herself down. But she slides too fast too. She goes past the end of the slide and falls on Tom. They are both wet and dirty.
+
+They laugh together. They hug each other. They are happy. They say, "This is the best meeting ever. We don't need a normal slide. We have a fun slide."
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a big doll that could talk and sing. Ben had a small car that had a motor and could go fast. Lily liked her doll very much, but she also wanted to try Ben's car.
+
+"Can I play with your car, Ben?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben looked at his car and then at Lily. He liked his car very much, too, but he also wanted to be nice to his sister.
+
+"OK, Lily, you can play with my car for a little while. But be careful, it is very fast," Ben said.
+
+Lily was happy and thanked Ben. She took the car and turned on the motor. The car made a loud noise and zoomed across the floor. Lily laughed and chased the car.
+
+Ben watched Lily play with his car. He felt a little sad, but he also felt proud. He was generous and shared his car with Lily. He hoped she would have fun and not break it.
+
+After a few minutes, Lily came back to Ben. She gave him back his car and hugged him.
+
+"Thank you, Ben, for letting me play with your car. It was very fun, but I also like your doll. She is very pretty and smart. Do you want to play with her?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben smiled and accepted Lily's offer. He took the doll and pressed a button. The doll said hello and sang a song. Ben and Lily played together with the doll and the car. They were happy and kind to each other.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Tom had a big truck and Lily had a doll. Tom liked to make loud noises with his truck and drive it around the floor. Lily liked to brush her doll's hair and dress her up.
+
+"Tom, can you keep quiet?" Lily asked. "You are too loud and I can't hear my doll talk."
+
+"No, I can't keep quiet," Tom said. "I like my truck and it makes fun noises. Vroom, vroom, beep, beep!"
+
+Tom drove his truck closer to Lily and her doll. He bumped into them and made them fall over. Lily was angry. She picked up her doll and saw that her hair was cut. Tom had cut her doll's hair with his scissors.
+
+"Tom, you cut my doll's hair!" Lily cried. "You are mean and bad. I hate you!"
+
+Lily threw her doll at Tom and hit him in the face. Tom was angry too. He threw his truck at Lily and hit her in the head. Lily and Tom both started to cry and scream. Their mom heard them and came to the living room. She saw the mess and the toys and the cut hair. She was very angry.
+
+"What have you done?" she yelled. "You are both naughty and rude. You hurt each other and your toys. You have to go to your rooms and stay there. No more playing today. I am very disappointed in you."
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and sorry. They wanted to say sorry to each other and to their mom, but they couldn't. They had to go to their rooms and sit on their beds. They had no toys and no fun. They had a bad ending.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside in the park. But today it is cold and windy. Anna's mom says they need to wear sweaters.
+
+"Anna, put on your sweater. It is warm and cozy," mom says.
+
+"But mom, I don't like this sweater. It is too big and itchy," Anna says.
+
+"Please, Anna. You don't want to catch a cold, do you?" mom says.
+
+Anna sighs and puts on her sweater. She goes to meet Ben at the park. Ben is wearing a blue sweater with a star on it.
+
+"Hi, Anna. I like your sweater. It is pink and fluffy," Ben says.
+
+"Hi, Ben. Thank you. But I don't like my sweater. It is too big and itchy," Anna says.
+
+"Really? I think it is nice. Do you want to trade sweaters?" Ben says.
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She likes Ben's sweater. It is blue and has a star on it. She thinks Ben is clever.
+
+"OK, Ben. Let's trade sweaters. You are clever," Anna says.
+
+They take off their sweaters and swap them. Anna puts on Ben's sweater. It is not too big and not itchy. It is just right. Ben puts on Anna's sweater. It is not too small and not scratchy. It is soft and warm.
+
+They smile at each other and run to the swings. They have fun in the park. They are happy with their sweaters. They know they are friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing with glue and paper. They wanted to make a big house for their toys. They glued many pieces of paper together and cut out windows and doors. They were having fun.
+
+But then, Lily saw a black spider on the wall. She was scared of spiders. She screamed and ran away. Ben looked at the spider and said, "Go away, spider! You are not nice!"
+
+The spider did not listen. It crawled down the wall and onto the table. It saw the glue and paper house. It thought it was a good place to hide. It went inside the house and stuck to the glue.
+
+Lily and Ben saw the spider in their house. They were very angry. They wanted to get the spider out. But they did not want to touch it. They had an idea. They took a big stick and poked the house. The house fell apart and the spider came out. It was still stuck to the glue.
+
+The spider was scared and tried to escape. It pulled and pulled, but the glue was too strong. It could not move. Lily and Ben laughed and said, "Ha ha, spider! You are trapped! You cannot escape!"
+
+They threw the spider and the glue and the paper in the trash. They did not want to play with them anymore. They went to play with something else. They were happy. The end.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They had a bow and some arrows that their dad made for them. They liked to pretend they were brave hunters.
+
+"Look, a bird!" Tom said, pointing to a tree. He took an arrow and aimed at the bird. "I will get it!"
+
+"No, don't!" Lily said. "That is rude! The bird is not hurting us. It is singing a nice song."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He let go of the arrow and it flew towards the bird. The bird saw the arrow and flew away. The arrow missed the bird and hit a dry branch. The branch started to burn.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Tom said. They saw the fire and got scared. They ran to the house and called their mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, help!" they shouted. "There is a fire in the tree!"
+
+Mom came out and saw the fire. She was angry and worried. She took a bucket of water and threw it on the fire. The fire went out.
+
+"What happened?" Mom asked. "How did the fire start?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. They felt sorry and ashamed. They told Mom the truth.
+
+"We were playing with the bow and arrows," Lily said. "Tom tried to shoot a bird, but he missed. The arrow hit a branch and it burned."
+
+Mom shook her head. She was not happy.
+
+"That was very rude and dangerous," she said. "You could have hurt the bird or yourselves or the tree. You should never play with fire or hurt animals. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They understood. They said sorry to Mom and to the bird and to the tree.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I'm glad you are safe and honest. But you have to be more careful and kind. Next time, play with something else. And if you see a fire, tell me right away."
+
+Lily and Tom agreed. They learned their lesson. They put away the bow and arrows and played with their ball instead. They did not want to burn anything or be rude again.
+Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play outside and explore the woods behind his house. One day, he found a long stick that looked like a spear. It was very interesting to him, so he picked it up and pretended to be a brave knight.
+
+As he was playing, Timmy's mom called him for lunch. "Timmy, it's time to come inside and eat," she said. "Okay, Mommy," Timmy replied. "Can I bring my spear with me?" he asked. "Sure, but promise me you'll be careful with it," his mom said.
+
+Timmy promised his mom that he would be careful and brought his spear inside with him. He showed it to his little sister, who thought it was interesting too. They played together with the spear until it was time for Timmy to take a nap. He put the spear away and went to bed, dreaming of all the adventures he would have with it in the future.
+Once upon a time, there was an old man named Grandpa Joe. He loved to cook and his favorite spice was pepper. One day, his granddaughter Lily came to visit him.
+
+"Hi Grandpa Joe!" said Lily.
+
+"Hello there, Lily!" replied Grandpa Joe. "Would you like to help me cook some yummy food?"
+
