+

+
+Lily had an idea. She saw a chair near the shelf. She pushed the chair to the shelf and climbed on it. Now she was taller and could reach the bag. She pulled the bag down from the shelf. But the bag was heavy and Lily lost her balance. She fell off the chair and the bag fell on the floor. The things inside the bag spilled out. There were keys, a phone, a wallet, a book, and a red lipstick.

+
+Lily came out from under the table. She was crying and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to see what was in your bag. I like your bag. It's leather and it smells good. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Her mom sighed and hugged Lily. She said, "I'm sorry, too, Lily. I know you were curious, but you have to ask me before you touch my things. My bag is not a toy. It has important things that I need. Next time, if you want to see something, just ask me and I will show you. OK?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. I love you."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you, too, Lily. Now let's clean up this mess and then we can read a book together. How about that?"

+
+Sara and Ben are scared and sorry. They say "We did not know. We are hungry and like blueberries. We are sorry. Please do not be mad."
+
+The farmer says "You should not take what is not yours. You should ask before you eat. You should be honest and clear. That is the right thing to do. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Ben nod and say "Yes, we understand. We are sorry. We will not do it again. We will be honest and clear. Can we be your friends?"
+
+The farmer says "Yes, you can be my friends. But you have to help me pick the blueberries and take them to the market. And you can have some as a treat. But only some. Do you agree?"
+
+Sara and Ben say "Yes, we agree. We will help you. And we will share the blueberries. Thank you for being kind."

+Lily was a little dragon who loved to play with her friends. She liked to fly, to chase, and to roar. But she did not like to breathe fire. She was afraid of the flame, and she thought it was not nice to burn things.
+
+One day, she saw a big dragon flying in the sky. He was graceful and strong, and he breathed fire with ease. Lily wanted to be like him, so she asked him, "How do you breathe fire so well?"
+
+The big dragon smiled and said, "Fire is a gift, not a curse. You have to practice and control it, not fear it. Fire can be warm, bright, and beautiful, if you use it wisely. But it can also be dangerous, harmful, and ugly, if you use it foolishly. Come, I will teach you how to breathe fire."
+
+Lily followed the big dragon to a clearing, where he showed her how to inhale, exhale, and shape the flame. He told her to start with small puffs, and then gradually increase the size and intensity. He also told her to be careful of the wind, the trees, and the animals.
+
+Lily tried to copy the big dragon, but she was still nervous. She puffed out a tiny flame, but it was weak and flickering. She puffed out a bigger flame, but it was wild and crooked. She puffed out a huge flame, but it was too much and it set a bush on fire.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!"
+
+The big dragon quickly put out the fire with his wings, and then comforted Lily. He said, "Don't worry, it's okay. You are still learning, and you made a mistake. But you can learn from your mistake, and do better next time. The most important thing is to be brave, but also to be kind. Fire is a powerful tool, but you have to use it with care and respect. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded, and said, "Yes, I understand. Thank you for teaching me. I will try again, and I will be more careful. I want to breathe fire like you, but I also want to be a good dragon."
+
+The big dragon smiled again, and said, "You are welcome, Lily. You have a good heart, and a great potential. I'm sure you will become a graceful and strong dragon, who can breathe fire with ease and wisdom. Now, let's try again, together."
+
+Lily and the big dragon practiced for a while, and Lily improved her fire-breathing skills. She learned how to make the flame bigger or smaller, straighter or curvier, and brighter or softer. She also learned how to avoid hurting anything or anyone with her fire. She felt happy and proud, and she thanked the big dragon again.
+
+The big dragon said, "You're welcome, Lily. You did very well. I'm proud of you. And remember, fire is a gift, not a curse. Use it wisely, and you will shine."
+
+The end.

+
+"Arrr, matey, I'm the captain of this ship!" Tom said, putting on the hat and the patch. "And you're my first mate, Mia. We have to guard our treasure from the bad pirates."
+
+"Okay, captain, I'll help you!" Mia said, picking up a wooden sword. "But where are the bad pirates?"
+
+Tom pointed to the fence. "They're hiding behind there, waiting for a chance to grab our treasure. We have to be brave and fight them off!"
+
+They ran to the fence and waved their swords, making loud noises. "Go away, bad pirates! This is our treasure!" they shouted.
+
+But they didn't see the real bad pirate sneaking up behind them. It was Max, their big brother, who wanted to play a trick on them. He had a mask and a hook and a sack. He crept closer and closer to the box of treasure, ready to snatch it.
+
+"Ha ha ha, I'm the baddest pirate of them all!" he said, grabbing the box and running away. "This treasure is mine now!"
+
+Tom and Mia turned around and saw him. They were very surprised and angry. They dropped their swords and chased after him.
+
+"Hey, give it back, Max! That's not fair!" they cried.
+
+But Max was faster and stronger. He ran into the house and locked the door. He opened the box and looked at the treasure. He felt very proud and happy.
+
+But then he heard a loud knock on the door. It was Mom, who had seen everything from the window. She was not happy at all.
+
+"Max, what are you doing? Open this door right now!" she said. "You can't take your brother and sister's treasure. That's very naughty and mean!"
+
+Max felt very scared and sorry. He knew he had done a bad thing. He opened the door and gave back the box to Tom and Mia. He said he was sorry and asked them to forgive him.
+
+Tom and Mia were still upset, but they were also kind. They forgave Max and invited him to play pirates with them. They shared the treasure and the hat and the patch. They had fun together and forgot their fight.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She was proud of them for being brave and forgiving. She said they were the best pirates in the world.

+
+One night, when Mommy and Daddy were sleeping, Anna climbed out of her crib. She was very quiet and careful. She went to the door and opened it. She saw a big black shadow in the hall. It looked like a monster. Anna was scared. She wanted to go back to her crib. But the shadow moved and made a noise.
+
+"Who's there?" the shadow said. It was Daddy. He turned on the light and saw Anna. He was not happy. He picked her up and carried her back to her crib. He tucked her in and kissed her. "Anna, you can't climb out of your crib. It's dangerous. You could get lost or hurt. You have to stay in your crib until you are bigger. Do you understand?" he said.
+
+Anna nodded. She felt sorry. She did not want to make Daddy angry. She did not want to see the monster shadow again. She hugged her teddy bear and closed her eyes. She decided to wait until she was bigger to sleep in a big bed. She was a good girl.
+Lily and Ben liked to go to the park on Sunday. They liked to play on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They also liked to feed the ducks and watch the squirrels.

+One Sunday, they saw a new boy at the park. He had a big red ball and a loud voice. He threw his ball at the ducks and shouted at the squirrels. He did not share his ball with anyone. He was very nosy and rude.

+
+Tom got angry and tried to grab their snacks and toys. Lily and Ben ran away from him. They found a nice spot under a big tree. They ate their snacks and played with their toys. They did not want to play with Tom.
+
+"Let's go to the other side of the park," Lily said. "Maybe we can find some nice friends there."
+
+"OK," Ben said. "But first, let's give some bread to the ducks. They must be hungry after Tom scared them."
+
+They took some bread from their bag and threw it to the ducks. The ducks came closer and quacked happily. They thanked Lily and Ben for being kind and gentle.

+One day, mom and dad have to go to the store. They tell Tom and Sue to stay at home with their dog. They say they will be back soon. Tom and Sue say yes, but they do not feel happy. They want to go with mom and dad. They think it is boring to stay at home.
+
+When mom and dad leave, Tom and Sue have an idea. They sneak out of the house and run to the car. They open the door and climb in. They pretend they are mom and dad and drive the car. They do not wear their seat belts. They do not know how to drive. They feel excited and naughty.
+
+They drive the car very fast and very loud. They do not look at the road. They do not stop at the red lights. They do not care about the other cars and people. They only care about having fun.
+
+But then, something bad happens. They crash into a big truck. The car makes a loud bang and breaks into pieces. Tom and Sue feel a lot of pain. They scream and cry. They wish they had listened to mom and dad. They wish they had been obedient and worn their seat belts. But it is too late. They are hurt very badly. They may not see mom and dad again. They are very sorry. The end.

+
+One day, her mom says, "Lily, we are going to see a real dancer today. She is very good and very pretty. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+Lily is very happy. She says, "Yes, mom, I want to come. Can I wear my pink dress and my shiny crown?"

+
+After the show, mom says, "Did you like the dancer, Lily?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, mom, I liked her a lot. She was very good and very pretty. I want to be like her."
+
+Mom says, "Maybe you can. You just have to practice and work hard. And be helpful to others. The dancer is very helpful too. She teaches other children how to dance. She is very kind and generous."
+
+Lily says, "I want to be helpful too. Can I meet the dancer, mom? Can I say hello to her?"
+
+Mom says, "Maybe we can. Come on, let's go to the backstage. Maybe she is there."
+
+They go to the backstage. They see the dancer. She is smiling and talking to some children. She sees Lily and mom. She says, "Hello, I'm Anna. I'm the dancer. Thank you for coming to see me. Do you like to dance?"
+
+Lily says, "Hello, I'm Lily. I love to dance. You are very good and very pretty. I want to be like you."

+Anna says, "Okay, come with me. I'll show you a dance. It's easy and fun. You can do it."
+
+Lily and Anna go to a corner. They hold hands. They dance together. They laugh and have fun. Mom watches them. She is proud and happy. She thinks, "Lily is a helpful and a happy dancer."
+Lily loved to read books. She liked to learn new words and what they meant. She had a big book with many words and pictures. It was called a dictionary. She wanted to read it all and complete it.
+
+One day, she took the dictionary to the park with her mom. She sat on a bench and opened the book. She saw a word she did not know. It was "adorable". She asked her mom, "Mom, what does adorable mean?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Adorable means very cute and lovable. Like you, Lily. You are adorable."
+
+Lily giggled and said, "Thank you, mom. You are adorable too."
+
+She looked at the picture next to the word. It was a kitten with big eyes and a bow. Lily thought it was adorable. She wanted to see a real kitten.
+
+She turned the page and saw another word she did not know. It was "surprise". She asked her mom, "Mom, what does surprise mean?"
+
+Her mom said, "Surprise means something that you did not expect, but makes you happy. Like a gift, or a cake, or a hug."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I like surprises. Do you have a surprise for me, mom?"
+
+Her mom winked and said, "Maybe I do, Lily. Maybe I do."
+
+She closed the book and said, "Let's go home, Lily. I have something to show you."
+
+Lily was curious and excited. She followed her mom to the car. She wondered what the surprise was.
+
+When they got home, Lily heard a soft meow. She saw a basket on the couch. She ran to it and looked inside. There was a kitten with big eyes and a bow. It was adorable.
+
+Lily gasped and said, "A kitten! A kitten for me!"
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, Lily. A kitten for you. I got it from the shelter. It needs a home and a friend. Do you want to keep it?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. Yes, yes, yes!"
+
+She picked up the kitten and hugged it. The kitten purred and licked her cheek. Lily was very happy. She said, "Thank you, mom. This is the best surprise ever. I love you and I love the kitten."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Lily. And I love the kitten. What will you name it?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment and said, "I will name it Adorable. Because it is adorable. And because I learned a new word today."
+
+Her mom said, "That's a perfect name, Lily. You are very smart and kind. And you completed the dictionary."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I did, mom. I did."
+Sam and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing, and run. One day, they saw a big dog in the park. The dog had a leather collar and a leather leash. The dog was brown and black and very furry.
+
+Sam and Lily wanted to pet the dog. They walked to the dog and said hello. The dog wagged his tail and licked their faces. Sam and Lily laughed. They liked the dog. They asked the dog's name. The dog's owner said his name was Rex.
+
+Rex liked to play too. He ran with Sam and Lily. He chased a ball and brought it back. He jumped and barked. He was loud, but Sam and Lily did not mind. They had fun with Rex.
+
+Then, Rex saw a squirrel. He wanted to catch the squirrel. He pulled on his leash and ran after the squirrel. The leash slipped from the owner's hand. Rex ran fast. Sam and Lily ran after Rex. They shouted his name.
+
+The squirrel ran up a tree. Rex stopped and looked up. He could not reach the squirrel. He barked loud. Sam and Lily caught up with Rex. They picked up his leash and gave it to the owner. They said sorry. The owner said it was okay. He thanked them for helping. He said Rex was a good dog, but sometimes he was naughty.
+
+Sam and Lily said goodbye to Rex and the owner. They went back to the slide, the swing, and the run. They had a good day in the park. They hoped to see Rex again. They liked Rex. He was a loud, leather, and furry friend.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their dog, Spot. Spot is a big, brown dog with white spots. He is very friendly and likes to lick their faces.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben go to the park with their mom and Spot. They see a big slide and want to try it. They run to the slide and take turns to go down. Spot follows them and barks happily.
+
+"Spot, you can't go on the slide!" Anna says. "You are too big and you might get hurt!"
+
+"Come here, boy!" Ben calls. "We will play with you later!"
+
+But Spot does not listen. He wants to go on the slide too. He jumps on the slide and slides down very fast. He bumps into a little girl who is waiting at the bottom. The little girl screams and cries. Her mom runs to her and hugs her.
+
+"Bad dog!" the mom yells. "Get away from my daughter!"
+
+She grabs Spot by the collar and tries to separate him from the little girl. Spot growls and tries to pull away. He is scared and angry.
+
+Anna and Ben run to Spot and try to calm him down. They are very anxious. They love Spot and do not want him to get in trouble.
+
+"Mom, mom, help!" Anna cries. "She is hurting Spot!"
+
+"Spot, Spot, it's okay!" Ben says. "We are here, we love you!"
+
+Their mom comes to them and talks to the other mom. She says she is sorry and that Spot did not mean to hurt the little girl. She says Spot is a good dog and just wanted to have fun. She asks the other mom if the little girl is okay.
+
+The other mom says the little girl is fine, just a little scared. She says she understands that Spot is a good dog, but he should not go on the slide. She says she is sorry for yelling and grabbing him. She says she was just worried about her daughter.
+
+The moms shake hands and smile. The little girl stops crying and looks at Spot. She sees that he is a big, brown dog with white spots. He is very friendly and likes to lick faces.
+
+"Can I pet him?" the little girl asks.
+
+"Yes, you can," Anna says. "He is very nice. His name is Spot."
+
+The little girl reaches out and touches Spot's fur. Spot wags his tail and licks her hand. The little girl giggles and smiles.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They hug Spot and thank their mom. They say they are sorry for letting Spot go on the slide. They say they will be more careful next time.
+
+Their mom says she is proud of them for being brave and kind. She says they can play with Spot in the park, but not on the slide. She says they can go to the swings or the sandbox or the seesaw.
+
+Anna and Ben agree. They take Spot to the swings and push him gently. Spot barks happily and enjoys the ride. The little girl and her mom join them and they all have fun. They are friends now.
+Tim and Lily were best friends. They liked to play games together. One day, they played hide and seek in the park. Tim counted to ten and then looked for Lily.
+
+He found her behind a big tree. "I see you, Lily!" he shouted. "You are not good at hiding!"
+
+Lily felt sad. She did not like when Tim said mean things. She ran away from him and hid again.
+
+Tim did not know where she went. He looked and looked, but he could not find her. He started to feel troubled. He did not want to lose his friend. He called out, "Lily, where are you? I am sorry I was mean. Please come back!"
+
+Lily heard him, but she did not answer. She was still sad and angry. She stayed behind a bush and did not move.
+
+Tim was very worried. He did not like to play this game anymore. He wanted to find Lily and say sorry. He wished she would come out and play with him again. He did not like to be alone. He missed his friend.
+Lily and Ben like to play hide and seek in the big house. They take turns to count and hide. Lily is very good at hiding. She knows many places where Ben cannot find her. She can hide under the bed, behind the curtain, or in the closet.
+
+One day, Lily has a new idea. She sees a ladder in the garage. The ladder is very tall and has many steps. Lily thinks she can hide on the top of the ladder. Ben will never look there. She climbs the ladder very carefully and sits on the last step. She feels happy and smart.
+
+Ben starts to count in the living room. He says, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Ready or not, here I come!" He looks for Lily in all the usual places. He cannot find her. He starts to feel confused and sad. He wonders where Lily is. He goes to the garage to check.
+
+In the garage, he sees the ladder. He sees Lily's shoes sticking out from the top. He feels angry and surprised. He says, "Lily, that is not fair! You cannot hide on the ladder. That is dangerous and cheating. Come down now!"
+
+Lily hears Ben's voice. She feels scared and sorry. She knows she made a bad choice. She wants to come down, but she is too high. She does not know how to climb down. She starts to cry and shout, "Ben, help me! I am stuck on the ladder. I am sorry. Please help me!"
+
+Ben hears Lily's cry. He feels worried and sorry too. He knows Lily is in trouble. He forgets his anger and runs to the ladder. He says, "Lily, don't cry. I will help you. Hold on to the ladder. I will climb up and get you." He climbs the ladder very carefully and reaches Lily. He hugs her and says, "Lily, I am here. You are safe. I am not mad at you. I love you. Let's go down together."
+
+Lily hugs Ben back and says, "Ben, thank you. You are brave and kind. I love you too. I am sorry I hid on the ladder. That was a bad idea. Let's not do that again."
+
+Ben and Lily climb down the ladder very carefully and go back to the living room. They decide to play a different game. They choose to play with blocks. They make a big tower with the blocks. They are very organized and happy. They are the best friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for shiny things. Sometimes they found rocks, shells, or coins. But today they found something very special. It was a crystal!
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily said, holding up the crystal. It was clear and sparkly, and it made a rainbow when the sun shone on it. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Can I see?" Ben asked, reaching for the crystal. He wanted to hold it too. But Lily did not want to share. She pulled the crystal away from Ben. "No, it's mine! I found it first!"
+
+Ben felt sad and angry. He wanted to play with the crystal too. He tried to grab it from Lily, but she ran away. They started to fight and shout. They did not have fun anymore.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was Mom. She came out of the house and saw them fighting. She was not happy. "What are you doing?" she asked. "Why are you fighting over a crystal?"
+
+Lily and Ben stopped fighting. They looked at Mom. They felt ashamed. They knew they were being bad. They did not want to make Mom sad.
+
+"We're sorry, Mom," they said. "We both wanted to play with the crystal. It's so pretty."
+
+Mom smiled. She understood. She knew they liked shiny things. But she also knew they had to learn to share. "I know the crystal is pretty," she said. "But you know what's prettier? Your friendship. You are brother and sister. You should help each other, not fight. Why don't you take turns playing with the crystal? Or better yet, why don't you play together? You can make up a story about the crystal. Maybe it's magic. Maybe it can grant wishes. Maybe it can take you to a fairy land. What do you think?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They felt sorry for fighting. They wanted to be friends again. They nodded. "Okay, Mom," they said. "We'll share the crystal. We'll play together. We'll make up a story."
+
+Mom hugged them. She was proud of them. She gave them the crystal. "Have fun," she said. "But don't forget to come inside when it's time for dinner. And don't lose the crystal. It's very special."
+
+Lily and Ben thanked Mom. They took the crystal and ran back to the garden. They held the crystal together. They felt happy. They made up a story about the crystal. They pretended it was magic. They pretended it could grant wishes. They pretended it could take them to a fairy land. They had fun.
+
+They played until the sun went down. They were tired and sleepy. They came inside and gave Mom the crystal. They said good night. They went to bed. They dreamed of the crystal and the fairy land. They dreamed of each other. They were friends.
+Sara and Ben like to play in the park. They run and jump and slide and swing. Sometimes they find junk in the grass. Junk is things that people do not want. Like cans and papers and bottles. Sara and Ben like to pick junk and make things with it.
+
+One day, they find a big piece of junk. It is smooth and shiny and round. It has a hole in it. Sara says, "Look, Ben, this is a good junk. We can make a hat with it." Ben says, "Yes, Sara, this is a good junk. Let me try it on." He puts the junk on his head. It is heavy and tight.
+
+Sara says, "You look funny, Ben. Can I try it too?" Ben says, "No, Sara, this is my junk. I found it first. You can find another junk." Sara says, "But I want to try it, Ben. Please share with me." Ben says, "No, Sara, go away. This is mine." He pushes Sara. Sara falls and cries.
+
+Ben does not care. He likes his junk. He thinks it is a special junk. He does not know that it is a pot. A pot that is very hot. A pot that someone left on the fire. A pot that burns his head. Ben screams and tries to take off the junk. But it is stuck. He runs and runs. He looks for help. But no one is there. The park is empty. Ben is alone. He is hurt. He is scared. He is sorry. He wishes he shared with Sara. He wishes he did not pick the junk. He wishes he played nice. But it is too late. The end.
+Sam and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park and share their toys. One day, they found a shiny coin on the ground. Sam picked it up and put it in his pocket. He was very happy.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a coin!" he said. "It is so shiny and pretty. I will buy a candy with it."
+
+Lily looked at the coin and smiled. She was happy for Sam. But she also wanted a coin. She looked around and saw a big boy with a coin in his hand. He was playing with a ball and did not see Lily.
+
+"Maybe I can take his coin," she thought. "He has a ball and a coin. He does not need both. And he is bigger than me. He will not notice."
+
+She walked slowly to the big boy and reached for his coin. But the big boy saw her and grabbed her hand. He was angry.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" he shouted. "This is my coin. Go away, you little thief!"
+
+He pushed Lily to the ground and ran away with his ball and coin. Lily was hurt and scared. She started to cry.
+
+Sam heard Lily cry and ran to her. He saw what happened and felt sorry for her. He took out his coin from his pocket and gave it to her.
+
+"Here, Lily, you can have my coin," he said. "I don't need it. You are my friend and I want you to be happy."
+
+Lily looked at Sam and stopped crying. She hugged him and thanked him. She was very happy.
+
+"Thank you, Sam, you are very kind and brave," she said. "You are my best friend and I want you to be happy too."
+
+They shared the coin and bought a candy for each of them. They ate the candy and played in the park. They were very happy.
+
+The moral of the story is: It is better to share than to steal. Sharing makes you and your friends happy. Stealing makes you and others sad. Being brave means being kind and generous. Being a thief means being mean and selfish.
+Tom and Lily were camping with their dad. They slept in a big tent and had a fire outside. They liked to look at the stars and listen to the animals.
+
+In the morning, Tom woke up first. He saw the sky was pink and orange. He wanted to see the sunrise. He got out of the tent and walked to the hill. He saw the sun coming up over the trees. It was bright and beautiful. He smiled and said, "Wow!"
+
+Lily heard Tom and woke up too. She followed him to the hill. She saw the sunrise and said, "Wow!" too. They hugged and watched the sun go up.
+
+Dad woke up and smelled something bad. He got out of the tent and saw the fire was still on. He ran to the fire and saw a pot on it. He lifted the lid and saw a black and sticky mess. He said, "Oh no!"
+
+Tom and Lily heard dad and ran to the fire. They saw the pot and said, "What is that?"
+
+Dad said, "That was our breakfast. I forgot to turn off the fire. It burned and now it is bad. We can't eat it."
+
+Tom and Lily made a face and said, "Yuck!"
+
+Dad said, "I'm sorry, kids. We have to find something else to eat. Maybe we can pick some berries or find some nuts."
+
+Tom and Lily said, "OK, dad. We can help you. But first, can we taste the sunrise?"
+
+Dad said, "Taste the sunrise? What do you mean?"
+
+Tom and Lily said, "We mean, can we lick the sky? It looks so yummy and sweet."
+
+Dad laughed and said, "You can try, but I don't think it will work. The sky is too far and too high. But you can taste the air. It is fresh and clean."
+
+Tom and Lily said, "OK, dad. We will taste the air. Maybe it will make us forget the bad breakfast."
+
+They opened their mouths and breathed in the air. They said, "Mmm, it is good. We like the air. We like the sunrise. We like camping with you, dad."
+
+Dad said, "I like camping with you too, kids. You make me happy. Now, let's go find some food. Maybe we can make a good lunch."
+
+They put out the fire and left the pot. They walked to the woods and looked for berries and nuts. They had fun and forgot the bad breakfast. They tasted the sunrise and the air. They were happy.
+Anna and Ben are playing with blocks on the floor. They are building a big tower with many colors. Anna likes to be the boss of the game. She tells Ben what blocks to use and where to put them.
+
+"Ben, give me the red block. It goes on top of the blue one. Hurry up!" Anna says.
+
+Ben does not like to be bossed around. He wants to use his own blocks and make his own tower. He does not answer Anna. He takes the yellow block and puts it on his side of the floor.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing? That is not how we play. You have to listen to me. I am the boss of the game!" Anna says.
+
+Ben still does not answer Anna. He is tired of her bossy voice. He takes the green block and puts it on his yellow block. He smiles at his tower.
+
+"Ben, stop it! You are ruining the game. You have to do what I say. Answer me, Ben!" Anna says.
+
+Ben does not want to fight with Anna. He likes her as a friend. But he does not like her as a boss. He has an idea. He takes the red block that Anna wanted and puts it on his green block. Then he says:
+
+"Anna, look at my tower. It is very pretty. It has many colors. Do you like it?"
+
+Anna looks at Ben's tower. She sees the red block on top. She feels angry and sad. She wanted the red block for her tower. She says:
+
+"Ben, that is not fair. You took my red block. That is my favorite block. Give it back to me!"
+
+Ben shakes his head. He says:
+
+"No, Anna. This is my block. I found it first. You have many other blocks. You can use them for your tower."
+
+Anna does not like Ben's answer. She wants the red block. She tries to grab it from Ben's tower. But Ben holds it tight. They pull and tug on the block. They do not see that their towers are falling down. The blocks crash on the floor. They make a loud noise.
+
+Anna and Ben stop pulling. They look at the floor. They see their blocks scattered everywhere. They see their towers broken. They feel sorry and silly. They say:
+
+"Oh no! Look what we did. We broke our towers. We were not nice to each other. We were not good friends."
+
+Anna and Ben look at each other. They see the red block in their hands. They do not want it anymore. They say:
+
+"Here, you can have it. No, you can have it. No, you can have it."
+
+They laugh and hug. They say:
+
+"Let's share the blocks. Let's build a new tower together. Let's be nice and have fun."
+
+Anna and Ben put the red block on the floor. They pick up the other blocks. They start to build a new tower. They use many colors. They ask each other what blocks to use and where to put them. They answer each other kindly. They are happy and friendly. They are good friends.
+Ben and Lily were bored. They had no toys to play with. They looked around the room for something fun. They saw a magazine on the table. It had many pictures and words.
+
+"Let's look at the magazine," Ben said.
+
+"OK," Lily said.
+
+They took the magazine and opened it. They saw a picture of a big dog. It had long hair and big teeth. It looked angry.
+
+"Wow, what a bad dog!" Ben said.
+
+He stared at the dog. He felt scared.
+
+Lily stared at the dog too. She felt scared as well.
+
+"Maybe the dog will bite us," she said.
+
+She closed the magazine and threw it on the floor.
+
+"I don't like the magazine," she said.
+
+"Me neither," Ben said.
+
+They ran away from the magazine. They looked for something else to do. They hoped the bad dog would not come out of the magazine.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a big tree with many leaves. They wanted to climb the tree and see the birds.
+
+"Can we climb the tree, Mommy?" Ben asked.
+
+"OK, but be careful. Don't go too high and don't forget to hold on," Mommy said.
+
+Ben and Lily climbed the tree. They felt happy and brave. They saw a nest with three eggs. They heard the birds singing.
+
+"Look, Lily, eggs!" Ben said.
+
+"Wow, they are so pretty. Can we touch them?" Lily said.
+
+"No, Lily, they are not ours. They belong to the birds. We should leave them alone," Ben said.
+
+But Lily was curious. She reached out her hand to touch the eggs. She forgot to hold on. She slipped and fell. She screamed.
+
+Ben was frightened. He saw Lily falling. He shouted for Mommy.
+
+Mommy heard the scream and the shout. She ran to the tree. She saw Lily on the ground. She was crying and hurt.
+
+Mommy picked up Lily and hugged her. She checked her for injuries. She had a bump on her head and a scratch on her arm. She was not badly hurt, but she was scared and sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mommy. I forgot to hold on. I wanted to touch the eggs," Lily said.
+
+"It's OK, Lily. I'm glad you are not badly hurt. But you should not touch the eggs. They are not ours. They belong to the birds. They are their babies. You could have broken them or made the birds angry," Mommy said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mommy. I won't do it again. I love the birds. I don't want to hurt them," Lily said.
+
+Mommy kissed Lily and said, "I love you, Lily. You are my baby. But you have to be careful and listen to me. Climbing trees is fun, but it can be dangerous. You have to hold on and not forget."
+
+Ben climbed down the tree. He was sorry for Lily. He hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I love you, too. You are my sister. But you have to be careful and listen to Ben. He knows what is good and what is bad. He wants to protect you and have fun with you."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother. I will listen to you and Mommy. I want to protect you and have fun with you, too."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "You are both good children. I'm proud of you. Now, let's go home and have some ice cream. How does that sound?"
+
+Ben and Lily cheered and said, "Yes, Mommy. Ice cream, ice cream!"
+
+They held Mommy's hands and walked home. They forgot about the fall and the eggs. They remembered the love and the fun.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food with pots and pans. Anna found a big oven and opened the door. She saw a cake inside.
+
+"Look, Ben, a cake!" she said. "Let's eat it!"
+
+Ben ran to the oven and looked at the cake. It was brown and round and had white stuff on top. It smelled good.
+
+"Yum, yum, yum!" he said. "But wait, Anna, maybe the cake is hot. We should be careful."
+
+Anna did not listen to Ben. She reached for the cake with her hand. But as soon as she touched it, she felt a sharp pain. The cake was very hot. It burned her hand.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she cried. "The cake is bad! It hurts me!"
+
+Ben heard Anna cry and got scared. He did not know what to do. He saw a big red button on the oven. He thought maybe it would make the oven stop being hot. He pushed the button.
+
+But the button did not make the oven stop being hot. It made the oven do something else. It made the oven freeze. The oven became very cold. It made ice and snow inside. The cake turned into a block of ice. The oven door closed and locked.
+
+"Anna, Ben, what are you doing in the kitchen?" they heard their mom say. She came into the room and saw the oven. She saw the ice and snow. She saw the frozen cake. She saw Anna and Ben. They looked at her with big eyes. They did not say anything. They were afraid.
+
+"Anna, Ben, what did you do to the oven?" their mom asked. She was angry. She did not like what they did. She thought they were bad. She did not know they were trying to eat the cake. She did not know they were playing. She did not know they were sorry.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big tree with many branches. They want to climb the tree and have fun.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a branch that is amazing!" Tom says. He holds a long and strong branch in his hand. "I can use it as a sword or a wand or a fishing rod!"
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is a great branch!" Lily says. She wants to hold the branch too. "Can I see it? Can I play with it?"
+
+"No, Lily, this is my branch. I found it first. You can find your own branch." Tom says. He keeps the branch close to him. He does not want to share.
+
+Lily feels sad and angry. She thinks Tom is not nice. She tries to grab the branch from Tom. Tom pulls the branch back. They start to fight over the branch.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" a voice says. It is Mom. She sees Tom and Lily fighting. She is not happy. She goes to them and takes the branch away.
+
+"Tom, Lily, what are you doing? Why are you fighting over a branch?" Mom asks. She looks at them with a serious face.
+
+"Mom, this is my branch. It is amazing. I found it first. Lily wants to take it from me." Tom says.
+
+"Mom, Tom is not sharing. He is mean. I want to play with the branch too. It is amazing." Lily says.
+
+Mom shakes her head. She does not like their words. She says, "Tom, Lily, listen to me. A branch is not amazing. A branch is just a branch. It is not a toy. It is part of the tree. You should not break it or fight over it. You should respect it and leave it alone. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod their heads. They feel sorry. They say, "Yes, Mom, we understand. We are sorry. We will not fight over a branch again."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "That is good. Now, why don't you play something else? There are many other things you can do in the park. You can swing, slide, run, jump, or make friends. You can have fun together. You are brother and sister. You should love each other and share. That is what is amazing. Do you agree?"
+
+Tom and Lily smile too. They say, "Yes, Mom, we agree. We love each other and we will share. That is amazing."
+
+Mom hugs them and gives them a kiss. She says, "That is my good kids. Now, go and play. Have fun. But be careful and stay close. I will watch you from here."
+
+Tom and Lily run to the playground. They hold hands. They forget about the branch. They have fun together. They are happy. Mom is happy too. She thinks they are amazing.
+Anna likes to see her big sister, Mia, do her homework. Mia has many folders with different colors and pictures on them. Anna thinks they are pretty and wants to play with them.
+
+One day, Mia is very busy and has to finish a lot of homework. She puts her folders on the table and goes to the kitchen to get a snack. Anna sees the folders and decides to look at them. She opens one and sees many papers with words and numbers. She does not understand them, but she likes to touch them and make noises.
+
+She opens another folder and sees more papers. She takes them out and puts them on the floor. She opens another folder and does the same. Soon, the floor is covered with papers and the folders are empty. Anna is happy and claps her hands.
+
+Mia comes back from the kitchen and sees the mess. She is very angry and sad. She says to Anna, "What did you do? You ruined my homework! How can I fix this? You are not helpful, you are naughty!"
+
+Anna feels bad and starts to cry. She says to Mia, "I'm sorry, Mia. I wanted to see your folders. They are pretty. I did not know they are important. I wanted to be helpful, not naughty."
+
+Mia sees that Anna is sorry and hugs her. She says to Anna, "It's okay, Anna. I know you did not mean to be naughty. But you have to ask me before you touch my things. They are not toys, they are for my school. They help me learn and do well. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna nods and says, "Yes, Mia. I understand. I will not touch your folders again. Can I help you put the papers back?"
+
+Mia smiles and says, "Yes, Anna. You can help me. That is very helpful and kind of you. Thank you."
+
+They work together and sort the papers by color and picture. They put them back in the folders and on the table. They are both happy and proud. They hug each other and say, "I love you."
+Sara and Ben like to play outside. They like to run and jump and kick a ball. That is good exercise. Exercise makes them strong and happy.
+
+One day, it is very cold outside. Sara and Ben see white stuff on the ground. They touch it and it is icy. They make balls with the icy stuff and throw them at each other. That is fun.
+
+But then, Sara slips on the icy ground and falls down. She hurts her knee and cries. Ben runs to her and helps her up. He says sorry and gives her a hug. He takes her inside and gets a band-aid for her knee.
+
+Sara and Ben are warm and cozy inside. They drink hot chocolate and eat cookies. They play with their toys and read books. They are still happy. They love each other.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to look for insects and learn their names. Lily saw a big spider on a leaf. She was scared of spiders. She ran to Tom and said, "Tom, Tom, there is a spider! I don't like spiders. They are scary and hairy."
+
+Tom was not scared of spiders. He liked to watch them spin webs and catch flies. He said, "Lily, spiders are not scary. They are insects. They are good for the garden. They eat bad bugs that hurt the plants. Come, I will show you."
+
+Lily was not sure. She said, "But spiders have too many legs. And they have fangs. And they can bite."
+
+Tom said, "Spiders have eight legs. That is how they move and climb. They have fangs to eat their food. They only bite if they are in danger. They are not mean. They are just different. I recommend you to look at the spider. Maybe you will like it."
+
+Lily trusted Tom. She followed him to the leaf. She saw the spider. It was black and shiny. It had a red spot on its back. It was making a web. It was very busy. Lily looked closer. She saw the spider's eyes and mouth. She saw the spider's legs and fangs. She saw the spider's web and fly. She was not scared anymore. She said, "Tom, you are right. The spider is not scary. The spider is interesting. The spider is beautiful. Thank you for showing me."
+
+Tom smiled. He said, "You are welcome, Lily. I am glad you like the spider. You see, sometimes things are not what they seem. Sometimes we have to look closer and learn more. Sometimes we have to be brave and try new things. That is how we grow and have fun."
+
+Lily and Tom hugged. They learned a new thing. They made a new friend. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Sara had a big spoon and Ben had a small knife. They opened the cabinet and took out some cans and boxes.
+
+"Look, Sara, I have tomatoes and cheese. What do you have?" Ben asked.
+
+"I have soup and crackers. Let's make a pizza!" Sara said.
+
+They put the cans and boxes on the table and started to open them. But they did not know how to use the knife and the spoon. They made a big mess. The soup spilled on the floor and the cheese stuck to the knife. The crackers broke into pieces and the tomatoes rolled away.
+
+"Oh no, we are in trouble!" Sara said.
+
+Just then, Mom came into the kitchen. She saw the mess and was very angry.
+
+"What are you doing, Sara and Ben? You are not chefs, you are naughty children! You made a big mess and wasted the food. Go to your room right now!" Mom said.
+
+Sara and Ben were scared and sad. They did not want to go to their room. They wanted to play and have fun. They looked at each other and ran away. They hid in the cabinet under the sink. They hoped Mom would not find them.
+
+But Mom was not stupid. She knew where they were. She opened the cabinet and saw them. They looked at her with big eyes.
+
+"Please don't be mad, Mom. We are sorry. We just wanted to play," Sara said.
+
+Mom sighed. She was still angry, but she also loved them. She knew they were only children. She decided to be nice.
+
+"OK, I forgive you. But you have to help me clean up the mess. And next time, don't play with the food. Ask me first if you want to cook something," Mom said.
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They were happy. They hugged Mom and said thank you. They felt like Mom had rescued them from the bad situation. They helped Mom clean up the mess and then they went to their room. They decided to play with their toys instead of the food. They learned their lesson.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books and games, but they also liked to learn new things. Sometimes, they would ask their mom or dad to tell them stories about history, like how people lived long ago, or what happened in big wars, or who made important discoveries.
+
+One day, their mom brought them a big book with many pictures and words about history. She said they could look at it, but they had to be careful and not disturb it. Tom and Lily were very happy and thanked their mom. They opened the book and saw many interesting things, like castles and knights, pyramids and mummies, ships and pirates, and more.
+
+Tom liked the pictures of the ships and pirates the most. He pointed at them and said, "Look, Lily, these are pirates. They sailed on the sea and fought with other ships. They had swords and guns and hats and parrots. They were very brave and adventurous. I want to be a pirate when I grow up."
+
+Lily liked the pictures of the castles and knights the most. She pointed at them and said, "Look, Tom, these are knights. They lived in castles and wore armor and helmets. They had horses and shields and lances and flags. They were very noble and loyal. I want to be a knight when I grow up."
+
+Tom and Lily started to argue about who had the better choice. Tom said pirates were more fun and exciting than knights. Lily said knights were more honorable and good than pirates. They raised their voices and tried to take the book from each other. They did not notice that they were disturbing the book and making it tear and bend.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to their room. She saw the book and was very angry and sad. She said, "Tom and Lily, what have you done? You have disturbed the book and ruined it. This book was very old and special. It belonged to your grandpa, who loved history and gave it to me before he died. He wanted you to learn from it and enjoy it, not fight over it and destroy it. You should be ashamed of yourselves."
+
+Tom and Lily felt very sorry and guilty. They realized they had been foolish and selfish. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We did not mean to disturb the book and hurt your feelings. We were just envious of each other and wanted to have the best pictures. We like history and we want to know more about it. But we also love you and grandpa and we respect the book. Can you forgive us, mom?"
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "I forgive you, Tom and Lily. I know you are curious and imaginative, and that is good. But you also have to be careful and respectful, and that is better. You can still look at the book, but you have to share it and take care of it. And you can still be pirates and knights, but you have to be kind and friendly, and that is best."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and smiled. They said, "Thank you, mom. We will do that. We will be good pirates and knights, and good children too." They kissed their mom and went back to the book. They looked at the pictures together and asked their mom to tell them more stories about history. They learned a lot and had fun, and they did not disturb the book anymore.
+Lily and Ben were playing with magnets. They liked to stick them on the fridge and make shapes and letters. Lily made a big L for her name and Ben made a B for his name. They were happy and laughed.
+
+Then they saw a scary picture on the fridge. It was a monster with big teeth and horns. Lily and Ben were afraid and ran away. They hid behind the sofa and cried.
+
+"Who put that picture there?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it was Mom or Dad," Ben said.
+
+They peeked from behind the sofa and saw the picture. It was still there. They were still scared.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was Mom. She came into the kitchen and saw the picture. She laughed.
+
+"Who made this funny picture?" she asked.
+
+Lily and Ben came out from behind the sofa. They looked at Mom. They looked at the picture. They saw that it was not a real monster. It was made of magnets. Someone had used magnets to make eyes, nose, mouth, ears and horns on a paper.
+
+They felt silly. They laughed too.
+
+"Did you make this picture, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, I didn't. I think it was Dad. He likes to make jokes," Mom said.
+
+"Can we make jokes too?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But only nice jokes. Not scary jokes," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They took the magnets and made a new picture. It was a happy face with a big smile. They put it on the fridge and waited for Dad to see it. They hoped he would laugh.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to jump on the swings, slide down the slide, and run on the grass. They saw a big dog with black fur and sharp teeth. The dog was barking loud and running fast.
+
+"Look, Lily, a dog!" Max said. "Let's go and pet it!"
+
+"No, Max, don't!" Lily said. "The dog is scary! It might bite us!"
+
+But Max did not listen. He ran towards the dog and tried to touch it. The dog growled and snapped at Max. Max was scared and ran back to Lily. He cried and hugged her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily, you were right," Max said. "The dog was scary. I don't want to play with it."
+
+"It's okay, Max, I'm here," Lily said. "Let's go and find Mom. She will make us feel better."
+
+They walked to the bench where Mom was sitting. She saw their faces and asked what happened.
+
+"We saw a scary dog, Mom," Lily said. "It barked and snapped at Max. He was brave, but he got scared."
+
+"Oh, poor Max," Mom said. "I'm glad you're okay. Do you want a hug and a kiss?"
+
+"Yes, please," Max said.
+
+Mom hugged and kissed them both. She gave them some juice and cookies. She said they did a good job of staying together and coming to her.
+
+"Why don't we go home and take a nap?" Mom said. "You must be tired after playing so much."
+
+"Okay, Mom," Lily and Max said. They were sleepy and happy. They got in the car and closed their eyes. They dreamed of nice things, not scary dogs.
+Sam and Lily were twins who liked to climb. They climbed trees, rocks, fences, and anything they could find. Their mom and dad said climbing was good for them, but they had to be careful and not go too high.
+
+One day, they went to visit their grandma and grandpa, who lived in a big house with a lot of luxury. Luxury meant things like soft beds, shiny cars, and fancy food. Sam and Lily thought luxury was boring. They wanted to have fun and explore.
+
+"Can we go outside and play?" they asked their grandma.
+
+"Sure, but don't go too far. There are some things you shouldn't climb here," she said.
+
+"Like what?" Sam asked.
+
+"You'll see," she said, and winked.
+
+Sam and Lily ran outside and saw a huge wall around the house. It was covered with vines and flowers. It looked like a perfect place to climb.
+
+"Wow, look at that wall!" Sam said. "Let's climb it and see what's on the other side."
+
+"OK, but be careful. Maybe grandma doesn't want us to climb it," Lily said.
+
+"Nah, she was just joking. Come on, it'll be fun," Sam said.
+
+They grabbed the vines and started to climb. They went higher and higher, until they reached the top of the wall. They looked over and saw a big pool with sparkling water and colorful toys.
+
+"Wow, look at that pool!" Lily said. "It looks so cool. Can we go in?"
+
+"Sure, why not? It's probably part of the luxury," Sam said.
+
+They jumped over the wall and landed in the pool with a splash. They laughed and played with the toys, feeling happy and free.
+
+But they didn't notice the big sign on the wall that said: "Beware of the crocodile."
+Sara and Ben like to bake with Mom. They help Mom mix flour, eggs, and sugar in a big bowl. They make cookies and muffins and put them in the oven. They smell yummy!
+
+When the cookies and muffins are ready, Mom puts them in a basket. She says, "Let's go for a picnic in the park!" Sara and Ben are happy. They love picnics!
+
+They go to the park and find a nice spot under a big tree. They spread a blanket on the grass and sit down. Mom gives them sandwiches, juice, and fruit. They eat and talk and laugh.
+
+Then Mom says, "Who wants a cookie or a muffin?" Sara and Ben say, "Me, me!" They pick their favorite ones from the basket. They are soft and sweet and delicious. Sara says, "Mom, you are the best baker in the world!" Ben says, "Mom, you are the prettiest mom in the world!" Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "You are the sweetest kids in the world!"
+
+They finish their picnic and pack up their things. They thank the tree for the shade and the grass for the softness. They walk back home, holding hands. They are happy and full. They had a wonderful picnic!
+Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play in the garden. One day, they see a big bird in the tree. The bird has a long beak and a red head. It is a woodpecker.
+
+"Look, Lily, a woodpecker!" Tom says. "It makes holes in the tree with its beak. It looks for bugs to eat."
+
+"Can we feed it?" Lily asks. "Maybe it likes bread or seeds."
+
+Tom shakes his head. "No, woodpeckers do not like bread or seeds. They like meat. They eat worms and grubs and ants."
+
+Lily makes a face. "Yuck, meat. I do not like meat. I like cheese and fruit and cake."
+
+Tom smiles. "Me too. But the woodpecker likes meat. It is good for its beak and its feathers."
+
+They watch the woodpecker for a while. It is very busy. It taps and pecks and moves from branch to branch. It makes a lot of noise.
+
+Suddenly, they hear their mom call them. "Tom, Lily, lunch is ready. Come inside, please."
+
+They run to the house. But before they go, they whisper to the woodpecker. "Bye, woodpecker. Have a nice day. Enjoy your meat."
+
+The woodpecker stops and looks at them. It nods its head and makes a sound. It sounds like "thank you". Tom and Lily laugh and wave. They are happy to have a new friend.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play hopscotch and hop on one leg. One day, they decided to play marriage. Lily wore a white dress and Ben wore a black suit. They held hands and walked to the garden.
+
+"Who will be the one who says the words?" Lily asked.
+
+"I will," Ben said. "I know how to do it. You just say, 'Do you want to be my wife?' and 'Do you want to be my husband?' and then you kiss."
+
+"Okay," Lily said. She was a little nervous. She had never kissed anyone before.
+
+They stood in front of a big rose bush. Ben cleared his throat and said, "Lily, do you want to be my wife?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Ben, I do."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Lily, you are the prettiest girl in the world. I love you."
+
+Lily blushed and said, "Ben, you are the nicest boy in the world. I love you too."
+
+They leaned in to kiss, but they were too clumsy. They bumped their noses and fell on the ground. They started to cry.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben said. "You hurt my nose!"
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily said. "You hurt my nose too!"
+
+They let go of each other and rubbed their noses. They looked at each other and felt sad. They thought they had ruined their marriage.
+
+"Maybe we are too young to play marriage," Ben said.
+
+"Maybe we are," Lily said.
+
+They got up and dusted themselves off. They hugged and said they were sorry. They decided to play something else. They still loved each other, but they would wait until they were older to kiss.
+Lily and Ben were playing with paper. They liked to fold it and make shapes. Lily made a hat and put it on her head. Ben made a boat and put it in a bowl of water.
+
+"Look, Lily, my boat can float!" Ben said. He blew on it and made it move.
+
+"That's nice, Ben. But my hat is better. It is big and pretty." Lily said. She twirled around and made the hat flap.
+
+Ben felt restless. He wanted to play something else. He took Lily's hat and tore it. Lily was angry. She took Ben's boat and made a knot in it.
+
+"Hey, stop it! That's not nice!" Ben shouted. He tried to undo the knot, but it was too tight.
+
+"Give me back my hat! You are mean!" Lily cried. She tried to fix her hat, but it was too ripped.
+
+They both started to cry. Mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw the paper mess and the sad faces.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked. She picked up the paper and looked at it.
+
+"Lily and Ben, why did you ruin your paper? You were supposed to play nicely."
+
+"Ben tore my hat!" Lily said.
+
+"Lily made a knot in my boat!" Ben said.
+
+Mom sighed. She hugged them and said, "I'm sorry you are upset. But you should not hurt each other's things. That is not how you show love. How about we make new paper shapes together? And then we can share them and say sorry."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They wiped their tears and smiled. They said sorry to each other and hugged. Mom helped them fold new paper shapes. They made a star, a flower, a bird, and a heart. They gave each other their shapes and said, "I love you."
+
+They felt happy and played nicely. They learned to fold, to share, and to forgive.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they found a tall slide that looked very fun. Lily wanted to go first, but Ben said no. He said he was older and bigger, so he should go first.
+
+"That's not fair!" Lily said. "We should take turns. You always want to go first."
+
+Ben frowned. He did not like to share. He pushed Lily away and climbed up the slide. Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted to play with Ben, but he was being mean.
+
+She waited at the bottom of the slide, hoping Ben would change his mind. But he did not. He slid down and ran back up, over and over. He did not look at Lily or talk to her. There was only silence between them.
+
+Lily decided she did not want to play with Ben anymore. She picked up her toys and walked away. She looked for another friend to play with. She saw a girl with a big smile and a yellow dress. She was swinging on a swing.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily. Can I play with you?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, I'm Anna. You can have the other swing. Do you like slides?" Anna said.
+
+Lily nodded. She liked slides, but not with Ben. She told Anna what happened with Ben. Anna listened and said, "That was not nice of him. He should have shared. Maybe he will say sorry later."
+
+Lily smiled. She liked Anna. She was kind and friendly. She swung with Anna and had fun. She forgot about Ben and his frown. She was happy.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make noises like vroom and beep when they move the cars.
+
+One day, they find a big box in the garage. Inside the box, there is a very old car. It is dusty and rusty. It has four wheels, but no doors or windows. It has a glass in front of it, but it is cracked and dirty.
+
+"Wow, look at this car!" Tom says. "It is so old and cool!"
+
+"Can we play with it?" Sam asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is broken. Let's try to push it and see what happens." Tom says.
+
+They push the car out of the box and onto the floor. The car makes a loud noise and starts to move by itself. It goes very fast. It speeds across the garage and hits the wall. The glass breaks and falls to the ground. The car stops and makes a sad sound.
+
+"Uh-oh, we broke the car!" Tom says.
+
+"And the glass!" Sam says.
+
+They hear footsteps coming to the garage. It is Tom's dad. He looks angry.
+
+"What did you do to my old car?" he asks. "That was my dad's car. It was very special to me. And you broke the glass!"
+
+"Sorry, dad. We didn't mean to. We just wanted to play with it." Tom says.
+
+"We didn't know it would speed and hit the wall." Sam says.
+
+Tom's dad sighs. He is not angry anymore. He is sad.
+
+"I know, boys. You didn't know. But you have to be careful with old things. They are not toys. They have stories and memories. Come, I will tell you about my dad and his car. Maybe we can fix it together." he says.
+
+He takes Tom and Sam by the hand and leads them to the house. He tells them about his dad and his car. He shows them pictures and videos. He makes them laugh and smile. He hugs them and says he loves them.
+
+Tom and Sam are happy. They learned something new. They still like to play with cars, but they are more careful with old things. They respect them and listen to their stories. They are good friends.
+Ben and Mia like to bounce on the big bed. They jump up and down and laugh. They count how many times they bounce. "One, two, three, four, five!" Ben says. "Six, seven, eight, nine, ten!" Mia says. They bounce higher and higher.
+
+Mom hears them from the kitchen. She is making lunch. She does not like the loud noise. She goes to the bedroom and opens the door. "Ben and Mia, stop bouncing on the bed!" she says. "You will break it or hurt yourself. Come and eat your lunch."
+
+Ben and Mia stop bouncing. They look at Mom. They are not happy. They like to bounce. They do not want to eat. "But Mom, bouncing is fun!" Ben says. "We are counting our numbers!" Mia says.
+
+Mom smiles. She knows they are learning and playing. But she also knows they need to eat and rest. "I know, bouncing is fun and counting is good. But you also need to eat your food and take a nap. How about this: after lunch and nap, you can bounce on the trampoline in the backyard. You can count your numbers there too. But no more bouncing on the bed, okay?"
+
+Ben and Mia think about it. They like the trampoline too. They nod. "Okay, Mom," they say. They get off the bed and follow Mom to the kitchen. They eat their lunch and take their nap. Then they go to the backyard and bounce on the trampoline. They count their numbers and have fun. Mom watches them and smiles. She is happy they are happy.
+Tom and Lily wanted to build a house for their toys. They had some wood, a hammer and some nails. They were very enthusiastic and started to measure the wood with a ruler.
+
+"Let's make the house big and strong," Tom said.
+
+"Yes, and pretty and cozy," Lily said.
+
+They cut the wood and nailed it together. They made a floor, four walls and a roof. They were very proud of their house.
+
+But then, their dog Spot came and saw the house. He was curious and wanted to play with it. He ran towards the house and bumped into it with his nose. The house shook and some nails came loose.
+
+"Spot, no!" Tom and Lily shouted. "You are ruining our house!"
+
+Spot did not understand. He thought they were inviting him to join the fun. He wagged his tail and barked happily. He jumped on the house and made it collapse.
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad and angry. They cried and scolded Spot. Spot felt sorry and licked their faces. He did not mean to hurt their house.
+
+Tom and Lily calmed down and hugged Spot. They realized he was just a playful dog. They decided to forgive him and try to build another house. They hoped Spot would not destroy it again.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with blocks. They build houses and towers and cars with blocks. They have fun.
+
+One day, Tim has a new toy. It is a whistle. It makes a loud sound when Tim blows it. Tim likes his whistle. He blows it all the time.
+
+Sam does not like the whistle. It hurts his ears. He cannot hear his blocks. He cannot hear Tim. He says, "Tim, please stop. The whistle is too loud. I want to play with blocks."
+
+But Tim does not stop. He blows the whistle more and more. He says, "No, Sam. The whistle is fun. I want to play with the whistle."
+
+Sam is sad. He does not want to play with Tim. He does not want to play with blocks. He walks away. He finds a quiet place. He sits alone.
+
+Tim sees Sam. He sees that Sam is sad. He feels sorry. He says, "Sam, I am sorry. I was not nice. I did not listen to you. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Sam looks at Tim. He sees that Tim is sorry. He says, "Yes, Tim. I want to play with you. But can you put away the whistle? It is too loud for me."
+
+Tim nods. He puts away the whistle. He says, "OK, Sam. I will not blow the whistle. I will play with blocks. Do you want to build something with me?"
+
+Sam smiles. He says, "Yes, Tim. I want to build something with you. Let's build a big house with blocks. And let's be friends."
+
+Tim and Sam hug. They go to the blocks. They build a big house with blocks. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was miserable. She did not like to cook with her mom. She wanted to play with her toys and watch TV. But mom said she had to help make dinner for dad and baby brother.
+
+"Come on, Lily, it will be fun. We are making pasta and salad. You can stir the sauce and wash the lettuce," mom said.
+
+Lily sighed. She did not like sauce or lettuce. She liked cheese and crackers. She took the wooden spoon and stirred the sauce. It was hot and red and smelled like tomatoes. She did not want to taste it.
+
+Mom smiled and gave her a kiss. "You are doing a great job, Lily. Thank you for helping me. Now, can you please get the shampoo from the bathroom? We need to wash baby brother's hair before dinner."
+
+Lily nodded. She put down the spoon and went to the bathroom. She saw the shampoo on the shelf. It was blue and had a picture of a duck on it. She liked ducks. She took the shampoo and ran back to the kitchen.
+
+"Here you go, mom. The shampoo for baby brother," she said.
+
+Mom thanked her and took the shampoo. She carried baby brother to the sink and turned on the water. She poured some shampoo on his hair and rubbed it gently. Baby brother giggled and splashed. He looked happy.
+
+Lily watched them and felt a little better. She liked baby brother. He was cute and funny. She decided to help mom wash his hair. She took a cup and filled it with water. She poured it over baby brother's head and rinsed the shampoo. Baby brother laughed and clapped his hands.
+
+"Good job, Lily. You are a great sister. Baby brother loves you," mom said.
+
+Lily smiled. She felt proud and happy. She did not mind cooking with mom anymore. She hugged mom and baby brother and said, "I love you too."
+Ben and Mia like to play with their toys. Ben has a big truck that can make noise and move. Mia has a doll that can talk and change clothes. They are happy with their toys, but sometimes they want to try something new.
+
+One day, they decide to discuss a trade. Ben says, "I like your doll. She is modern and pretty. Can I play with her for a while?" Mia says, "I like your truck. It is modern and fast. Can I play with it for a while?" They agree to swap their toys and have fun.
+
+They play with their new toys for a long time. Ben makes the doll say funny things and dress her in different outfits. Mia makes the truck zoom around and honk its horn. They laugh and enjoy their trade.
+
+But after a while, they start to miss their old toys. Ben says, "I miss my truck. It is modern and cool. Can I have it back?" Mia says, "I miss my doll. She is modern and sweet. Can I have her back?" They agree to swap their toys again and hug.
+
+They are happy with their old toys, but they are also happy with their trade. They learned something new and had fun. They say, "Thank you for the trade. You are a good friend." They smile and play some more.
+Tim and Mia were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big black dog with sharp teeth. The dog barked and ran towards them. Tim and Mia were scared and ran away.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shouted. "The dog is a threat!"
+
+A man who was walking nearby heard them and came to see what was wrong. He saw the dog and smiled. He called the dog by its name and the dog stopped barking and ran to him. He petted the dog and said, "Don't be afraid, kids. This is Rex. He is my dog and he is very friendly. He just wanted to play with you."
+
+Tim and Mia stopped running and looked at the man and the dog. They saw that the dog was wagging its tail and licking the man's face. They realized that the dog was not a threat, but a friend.
+
+"Can we play with Rex too?" Tim asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. He loves to play fetch and chase. Just be gentle and kind to him, and he will be gentle and kind to you." the man said.
+
+Tim and Mia smiled and thanked the man. They took turns throwing a stick and running with Rex. They had a lot of fun and learned not to judge a dog by its color or bark.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be afraid of things that are different from you. Sometimes, they can be your friends.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big hose with water coming out. It made a funny noise.
+
+"Let's go and see the hose!" Lily said.
+
+"No, we can't. Mom said we have to stay away from the hose. It has a leak and it can hurt us." Ben said.
+
+Lily did not listen. She wanted to see the hose. She was curious.
+
+"I dare you to touch the hose!" Lily said to Ben.
+
+Ben was scared. He did not want to touch the hose. But he did not want to look like a baby.
+
+"Fine, I will touch the hose. But you have to touch it too!" Ben said to Lily.
+
+They both ran to the hose. They reached out their hands. But they did not know that the hose was very strong. The water pushed them back. They fell on the ground. They got wet and dirty. They also got a boo-boo on their knees.
+
+They started to cry. Mom heard them and came to the garden. She saw them and the hose.
+
+"What happened? Why did you touch the hose? I told you not to!" Mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily felt bad. They knew they did wrong.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom. We were playing a game. We dared each other to touch the hose. We did not know it was so strong." Ben said.
+
+Mom was frustrated. She had to clean them and the hose. She also had to fix the leak.
+
+She hugged them and said, "I'm glad you are not hurt badly. But you have to listen to me. I tell you things for your own good. The hose is not a toy. It can be dangerous. You have to be careful and smart. Next time, do not dare each other to do silly things. OK?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They said, "OK, Mom. We are sorry. We love you."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I love you too. Now let's go inside and get dry."
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: Listen to your parents and do not do dangerous things.
+
+Foreshadowing or setup and payoff: The hose has a leak and it can hurt them. The hose is very strong and pushes them back.
+Lily and Max are playing in the backyard. They have a big box that they pretend is an automobile. They take turns driving and honking. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then it starts to rain. The rain is cold and wet. Lily and Max run inside the house. They leave the box outside. They are sad.
+
+"Mom, can we go back and play with our automobile?" Lily asks.
+
+"Not now, sweetie. It is raining too hard. You will get sick. Maybe later, when it stops." Mom says.
+
+Lily and Max wait and wait. They look out the window. The rain slows down. Then it stops. The sun comes out. They see a rainbow.
+
+"Mom, can we go now?" Max asks.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The ground is still wet and slippery." Mom says.
+
+Lily and Max put on their boots and jackets. They run outside. They look for their box. They find it in the grass. But it is not the same. It is wet and soggy. It is falling apart. It is not an automobile anymore.
+
+"Oh no, our automobile is ruined!" Lily cries.
+
+"It is OK, Lily. We can make another one. We have more boxes in the garage." Max says.
+
+He tries to cheer her up. He picks up a piece of the box. He rubs it on her cheek. It is rough.
+
+"Stop it, Max. That tickles!" Lily giggles.
+
+They laugh and hug. They go to the garage. They find a new box. They make a new automobile. They play again. They are happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing outside with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then the wind came. The wind was very strong and loud. It blew the ball away from them. Ben and Lily tried to catch the ball, but it was too fast. The ball rolled and rolled until it went over the fence.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben said. "Our ball is gone!"
+
+"Let's go get it!" Lily said. "Maybe we can climb the fence."
+
+But the fence was too high and sharp. Ben and Lily could not climb it. They looked at the other side of the fence, but they could not see the ball. The wind had taken it far away.
+
+"Maybe we should leave," Ben said. "The wind is not good. It is mean and scary."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "Let's go back to the house. Maybe Mom has another ball for us."
+
+They held hands and walked back to the house. They were sad, but they hoped they would find another ball to play with. They still liked each other and they still liked to play.
+Anna was a girl who liked to help her mom. One day, her mom was very busy. She had to cook and clean and talk on the phone. She asked Anna to take a tray of cookies to the neighbors. The neighbors were rich. They had a big house and a nice car and a dog.
+
+Anna put on her coat and shoes. She took the tray of cookies and walked to the neighbors' door. She rang the bell. The dog barked. Anna was scared. She did not like dogs. She wanted to run away. But she remembered that her mom trusted her. She was a big girl. She could do this.
+
+The door opened. A lady smiled at Anna. She saw the tray of cookies. She said, "Thank you, Anna. How nice of you and your mom. Come in, come in. Don't be afraid of the dog. He is friendly. He just wants to say hello."
+
+Anna followed the lady inside. The dog wagged his tail. He licked Anna's hand. Anna giggled. She was not scared anymore. She liked the dog. She gave him a cookie. The lady gave Anna a glass of milk. They sat on the couch and talked. Anna told the lady about her mom and her school and her toys. The lady told Anna about her dog and her garden and her books.
+
+Anna and the lady became friends. They shared the cookies and the milk. They laughed and played. Anna was happy. She was glad that she trusted her mom and herself. She was glad that she met the neighbors. She learned that rich people are not so different from her. They are nice and kind and like cookies too.
+Tommy was very angry. He did not want to take a bath. He hated water and soap. He wanted to play with his toys and watch TV. He screamed and kicked when Mommy tried to take him to the bathroom.
+
+"Tommy, stop it! You need to be clean and smell nice. It's almost bedtime. Come on, it won't take long. I have a surprise for you after the bath." Mommy said.
+
+Tommy did not care about the surprise. He did not want to go. He ran away from Mommy and hid under the bed. He saw a towel on the floor. He grabbed it and tore it with his teeth. He felt better. He liked to destroy things when he was angry.
+
+Mommy found him under the bed. She was very sad and mad. She saw the towel in his mouth. It was her favorite towel. It was blue and soft and had flowers on it. She had bought it with her own money. She loved it very much.
+
+"Tommy, what did you do? How could you destroy my towel? It was so pretty and special. You are a very bad boy. You made me miserable. You have to say sorry and go to the bath right now. And no surprise for you." Mommy said.
+
+Tommy felt sorry. He did not know Mommy liked the towel so much. He did not mean to make her miserable. He wanted to make her happy. He spit out the towel and said sorry. He hugged Mommy and went to the bath. He hoped Mommy would forgive him and give him the surprise. He wondered what it was. Maybe it was a new toy or a book or a cookie. He hoped it was not another towel.
+Tim likes to play with his truck. He has a big red truck that can make loud noises and move fast. He likes to drive his truck on the grass, on the dirt, and on the road. He pretends that he is a truck driver and he has to deliver things to different places.
+
+One day, he decides to play with his truck in the park. He sees a big hill and thinks it would be fun to drive his truck down the hill. He runs up the hill with his truck and gets ready to let it go. He counts to three and pushes his truck with all his might.
+
+But he pushes too hard and he stumbles. He falls down and rolls down the hill with his truck. He bumps his head, his knee, and his elbow. He feels pain and he cries. His truck also gets hurt. It loses a wheel, a door, and a light. It looks sad and broken.
+
+Tim's mom hears him cry and runs to him. She picks him up and hugs him. She says, "Are you okay, Tim? What happened?" Tim tells her what he did and shows her his truck. He says, "I'm sorry, mom. I broke my truck. It was my favorite toy."
+
+Mom says, "It's okay, Tim. I'm glad you're not badly hurt. We can fix your truck later. Let's go home and put some ice on your bumps. Maybe we can find another toy to play with. How about your train? You like your train, right?"
+
+Tim nods and wipes his tears. He says, "Yes, I like my train. But it's not as fun as my truck. My truck was the best. Now it's boring." He holds his truck in his arms and follows his mom to the car. He hopes his truck will be okay. He still loves his truck.
+Lily and Max are going on a trip with Mom and Dad. They are very happy. They pack their bags and zip them up. They put their bags in the car and get in.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Max asks.
+
+"Not yet, Max. We have to drive for a long time," Dad says.
+
+Lily looks out the window and sees many things. She sees cows, trees, houses, and birds. She likes to see new things.
+
+After a long time, they arrive at a big hotel. It is very fancy. It has a big door, a big lobby, and a big chandelier. Mom and Dad check in and get their room key.
+
+"Wow, this is so fancy!" Lily says.
+
+"Can we go to the pool?" Max asks.
+
+"Yes, we can. But first, we have to go to our room and change," Mom says.

+They go to the elevator and press the button. The elevator goes up and up and up. They get out and find their room. It is also very fancy. It has a big bed, a big TV, and a big window.
+
+Lily and Max unzip their bags and take out their swimsuits. They change quickly and put on their sunscreen. They are ready to go to the pool.
+
+"Come on, Mom and Dad. Let's go!" Lily says.
+
+"OK, OK. We're coming," Dad says.
+
+They leave their room and go back to the elevator. They press the button. The elevator goes down and down and down. They get out and walk to the pool. It is very big and blue. There are many people swimming and playing.
+
+Lily and Max run to the pool and jump in. They splash and laugh and have fun. They are very happy. They love their trip.
+Anna and Ben like to pretend. They pretend to be animals, or pirates, or superheroes. Today, they pretend to be chefs. They have a big box of fruit in the kitchen. They take out the fruit and put it on the table.
+
+"Look, I have a banana!" Anna says. "I can peel it and slice it and make a banana cake!"
+
+"Yum, that sounds good!" Ben says. "I have an apple! I can chop it and cook it and make apple sauce!"
+
+They pretend to peel and slice and chop and cook the fruit. They pretend to mix and stir and bake and serve. They make funny noises and faces as they pretend.
+
+"Here you are, my jolly customer!" Anna says. "A slice of banana cake for you!"
+
+"Thank you, my jolly chef!" Ben says. "A spoon of apple sauce for you!"
+
+They pretend to eat and enjoy the fruit. They smile and laugh and say how delicious it is. They have fun pretending to be chefs. They love fruit and they love each other.
+Ben and Lily wanted to make a cake for Mom's birthday. They looked at the book with the cake recipe. They saw the words "flour", "sugar", "eggs", "butter", "milk" and "vanilla". They knew what those things were. They also saw some numbers and pictures of cups and spoons. They did not know what those meant.
+
+They asked Dad for help. Dad said, "Those are the measures. You need to use the right amount of each thing to make the cake good. I will show you how to measure." He gave them a big bowl, a wooden spoon, a measuring cup and some measuring spoons. He said, "First, we need two cups of flour. See this cup? It has a line that says '2'. We need to fill it up to that line with flour. Can you do that, Ben?"
+
+Ben nodded. He took the cup and the bag of flour. He opened the bag and scooped some flour with the cup. He poured it into the bowl. He did it again. He said, "Look, Dad, I measured two cups of flour!"
+
+Dad smiled. He said, "Good job, Ben! Now, we need one cup of sugar. Can you measure that, Lily?"
+
+Lily nodded. She took the cup and the jar of sugar. She opened the jar and scooped some sugar with the cup. She poured it into the bowl. She said, "Look, Dad, I measured one cup of sugar!"
+
+Dad said, "Good job, Lily! Now, we need to crack four eggs and put them in the bowl. Can you do that, Ben and Lily?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They took four eggs from the fridge. They tapped them on the edge of the bowl. They opened them and let the egg go into the bowl. They threw the shells in the trash. They said, "Look, Dad, we cracked four eggs!"
+
+Dad said, "Good job, Ben and Lily! Now, we need to add half a cup of butter, half a cup of milk and one teaspoon of vanilla. Can you measure those, Ben and Lily?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They took the butter, the milk and the vanilla from the fridge. They saw that the measuring cup had another line that said '1/2'. They saw that the measuring spoons had different sizes. They found the one that said 'tsp'. They measured the butter, the milk and the vanilla and added them to the bowl. They said, "Look, Dad, we measured everything!"
+
+Dad said, "Good job, Ben and Lily! Now, we need to mix everything well with the wooden spoon. Can you do that, Ben and Lily?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They took the wooden spoon and stirred the bowl. They saw the flour, the sugar, the eggs, the butter, the milk and the vanilla become a smooth batter. They said, "Look, Dad, we mixed everything!"
+
+Dad said, "Good job, Ben and Lily! Now, we need to pour the batter into a cake pan and bake it in the oven. Can you help me with that, Ben and Lily?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They helped Dad pour the batter into a cake pan. They saw Dad put the cake pan in the oven. They saw Dad set the timer. They said, "Look, Dad, we made a cake!"
+
+Dad said, "Good job, Ben and Lily! Now, we need to wait for the cake to bake. It will take about half an hour. Do you want to play a game while we wait, Ben and Lily?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They said, "Yes, Dad, we want to play a game!"
+
+Dad said, "Okay, let's play hide and seek. I will count to ten and you go hide. Then, I will try to find you. Are you ready, Ben and Lily?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They said, "Yes, Dad, we are ready!"
+
+Dad said, "Okay, here I go. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Ready or not, here I come!"
+
+Ben and Lily ran to find a hiding spot. Ben hid under the bed. Lily hid in the closet. They giggled and hoped Dad would not find them.
+
+Dad looked around the house. He checked the living room, the kitchen, the bathroom, but he did not find Ben and Lily. He said, "Where are you, Ben and Lily? I can't find you!"
+
+Ben and Lily giggled louder. They thought they were very good at hiding.
+
+Dad went to the bedroom. He saw the bed. He said, "Hmm, I wonder if Ben or Lily is under the bed."
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their mom. They had a cooler with some snacks and drinks. Ben wanted to have a juice, but Lily said no. She said it was her turn to choose.
+
+"Give me the juice, Lily!" Ben said. He tried to grab the juice from Lily's hand.
+
+"No, Ben! It's mine!" Lily said. She pulled the juice away from Ben.
+
+Ben was angry. He saw the cooler on the grass. He picked it up and threw it at Lily. The cooler hit Lily on the head. It made a loud noise. The juice and the snacks fell out of the cooler. They got dirty on the ground.
+
+"Ow! Ben, that hurt!" Lily cried. She rubbed her head. She saw the juice and the snacks on the ground. She was sad. She liked the juice and the snacks.
+
+Mom heard the noise and the crying. She ran to Ben and Lily. She saw the cooler, the juice and the snacks on the ground. She was not happy.
+
+"Ben, why did you throw the cooler at Lily?" Mom asked. She looked at Ben with a stern face.
+
+"Because she wouldn't give me the juice!" Ben said. He pouted.
+
+"That's not a good reason, Ben. You hurt Lily and you wasted the juice and the snacks. They are dirty now. We can't eat them." Mom said. She picked up the cooler and the trash. She threw them in the bin.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry, Mom." Ben said. He felt bad.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. But you have to be nice to Lily and share with her. And you have to be careful with the cooler and the food. They are for us to enjoy, not to throw." Mom said. She hugged Ben and Lily.
+
+"Okay, Mom. I'm sorry, Lily. Can we still play?" Ben said. He smiled at Lily.
+
+"Okay, Ben. But next time, let me choose the juice." Lily said. She smiled back at Ben.
+
+They hugged each other and went to play on the swings. Mom watched them and smiled. She was glad they made up.
+Sara was sad. She did not want to go to bed. She wanted to stay up and play with her toys. But Mommy said it was late and she had to sleep.
+
+"Please, Mommy, can I have one more story?" Sara asked.
+
+Mommy smiled and hugged Sara. "Okay, one more story. But then you have to relax and close your eyes. Do you want to hear the story of the little bear and the fireplace?"
+
+Sara nodded. She liked that story. Mommy carried her to the couch and wrapped her in a blanket. She pointed to the fireplace, where the fire was warm and bright.
+
+"Once upon a time, there was a little bear who lived in the woods with his family. He loved to explore and have fun, but he also had to learn how to be careful. One day, he wandered too far from his home and got lost. He was cold and scared, and he did not know how to find his way back. He saw a house in the distance, and he thought maybe he could find some help there. He went to the house and peeked through the window. He saw a fireplace, and he thought it looked cozy and nice. He wanted to go inside and warm up, but he did not know if anyone was there. He decided to take a risk and sneak in through the door."
+
+Sara listened to Mommy's voice and felt her heart beat faster. She wondered what would happen to the little bear. She hoped he would be okay.
+
+"What do you think happened next?" Mommy asked.
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She remembered the fireplace, and she had an idea.
+
+"Did he get burned by the fire?" she guessed.
+
+Mommy shook her head. "No, he did not get burned by the fire. But he did get a big surprise. He went to the fireplace and tried to touch it, but he felt something furry and soft. He looked up and saw a big dog, who was sleeping on the rug. The dog woke up and saw the little bear, and he started to bark and growl. The little bear was so frightened that he ran out of the house as fast as he could. He did not stop until he reached his home, where his family was waiting for him. He told them what happened, and they hugged him and told him he was brave and lucky. He learned his lesson and never went near the house again. He was happy to be safe and warm with his family, and he never forgot the fireplace and the dog."
+
+Sara smiled and clapped her hands. She liked the ending of the story. She felt sleepy and warm.
+
+"Did you like the story?" Mommy asked.
+
+"Yes, Mommy, I liked it. Thank you for telling me. Can I have a kiss?" Sara asked.
+
+Mommy kissed Sara on the forehead and tucked her in. "You're welcome, sweetie. I love you. Good night."
+
+"Good night, Mommy. I love you too." Sara said.
+
+She closed her eyes and relaxed. She dreamed of the little bear and the fireplace, and she was not sad anymore.
+One day, a boy and a girl went to the park with their mom. They saw an enormous tree with many branches. The boy and the girl wanted to climb the tree and see the birds and the sky.
+
+"Can we climb the tree, mom?" the boy asked.
+
+"Be careful, and don't go too high," mom said.
+
+The boy and the girl climbed the tree and found a big branch to sit on. They saw many birds and clouds and felt the wind on their faces.
+
+"This is fun!" the girl said.
+
+"Yes, it is!" the boy said.
+
+They saw a squirrel run on another branch. The squirrel had a nut in its mouth. It looked at the boy and the girl and made a noise.
+
+"Hello, squirrel!" the girl said.
+
+The squirrel did not say anything. It ran away with the nut.
+
+The boy and the girl laughed. They wanted to see more animals.
+
+They looked around and saw a big cat lying under the tree. The cat was orange and black and had stripes. It was a tiger!
+
+"Wow, look at that cat!" the boy said.
+
+"That is not a cat, that is a tiger!" the girl said.
+
+"A tiger?" the boy said.
+
+"Yes, a tiger. It is very big and strong and can eat us!" the girl said.
+
+The boy and the girl were scared. They did not want to be eaten by the tiger.
+
+"Mom, mom, help!" they shouted.
+
+Mom heard them and saw the tiger. She was scared too. She ran to the tree and called the park ranger.
+
+"Help, there is a tiger under the tree!" she said.
+
+The park ranger came with a truck and a net. He saw the tiger and the boy and the girl. He was brave and smart. He threw the net over the tiger and caught it.
+
+"Don't worry, I got the tiger. It escaped from the zoo. I will take it back. Are you okay?" he said.
+
+The boy and the girl nodded. They were happy and relieved. They climbed down the tree and hugged mom.
+
+"Thank you, park ranger!" they said.
+
+"You're welcome. Be careful next time. Tigers are not cats. They are dangerous," he said.
+
+He drove away with the tiger. The boy and the girl learned a lesson. They never climbed the tree again. They played with other animals that were not dangerous. They had fun in the park.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they missed the ball and it rolled away. They had to be careful not to lose the ball.
+
+One day, a fat dog saw their ball and ran to get it. The dog was big and loud and had sharp teeth. Lily and Ben were scared of the dog. They ran away from the dog and hid behind a tree. They hoped the dog would not find them.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Lily shouted. "That is our ball! You can't have it!"
+
+But the dog did not listen. The dog picked up the ball in his mouth and shook it hard. The ball made a squeaky noise. The dog liked the noise and played with the ball.
+
+Lily and Ben were sad and angry. They wanted their ball back. They did not know what to do. They looked around for help.
+
+They saw a man in a blue uniform walking near the park. He had a badge and a hat and a whistle. He was a law man. He helped people who had problems.
+
+"Help us, law man!" Ben cried. "The dog took our ball! He won't give it back!"
+
+The law man heard Ben and came to see what was wrong. He saw the dog with the ball and the children behind the tree. He blew his whistle and called the dog.
+
+"Hey, dog! Drop the ball! That is not yours! That is the children's ball! You have to follow the law!"
+
+The dog heard the whistle and the law man's voice. He was afraid of the law man. He dropped the ball and ran away. He did not want to get in trouble.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy and relieved. They thanked the law man and ran to get their ball. They hugged their ball and each other.
+
+"Thank you, law man!" Lily said. "You are very brave and kind!"
+
+"You're welcome, children!" the law man said. "I'm glad I could help. Now be careful with your ball and have fun!"
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and nodded. They waved goodbye to the law man and went back to playing with their ball. They were careful not to let the dog see their ball again. They had learned a lesson. They had also made a new friend.
+Lila likes to play in the garden. She likes to look at the flowers and the bugs. One day, she sees a long line of ants on the ground. She wants to see where they are going.
+
+She follows the ants with her eyes. They walk on the grass, on the rocks, on the leaves. They carry little bits of food in their mouths. Lila wonders what they are doing. She decides to search for their home.
+
+She walks and walks, but the ants do not stop. They go under a fence, over a log, through a hole. Lila has to crawl and climb and squeeze. She gets dirty and tired, but she does not give up.
+
+At last, she sees a big pile of dirt. The ants go inside and out of the pile. Lila thinks this is their home. She is happy. She has found what she was looking for. She sits down and watches the ants. They are busy and smart. Lila likes them. She says hello to them. She hopes they are her friends.
+Jill and Tom were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pile of coal near the fence. They wondered what it was for and decided to join some other kids who were throwing coal at each other.
+
+"Hey, this is fun!" Tom said, as he tossed a piece of coal at Jill. "You can't catch me!"
+
+"Yes, I can!" Jill said, as she ran after him. "Watch out!"
+
+They laughed and dodged the coal, but they did not see the man who was watching them from behind the fence. He was the owner of the coal and he was not happy. He had a plan to teach them a lesson.
+
+The next day, Jill and Tom came back to the park. They saw the pile of coal again, but this time it looked different. It was shiny and sparkly, like jewels. They were curious and wanted to touch it.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Jill said, as she picked up a piece of coal. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Let me see!" Tom said, as he grabbed another piece. "It's so cool!"
+
+They did not know that the man had sprayed the coal with glue and glitter. He wanted to make them think it was valuable and then take it away from them.
+
+"Hey, you kids!" the man shouted, as he came out from behind the fence. "What are you doing with my coal? That's mine!"
+
+He snatched the coal from their hands and put it in a big bag. He looked angry and mean.
+
+"But it's just coal!" Jill said, confused. "Why do you want it?"
+
+"It's not just coal, it's unusual coal!" the man said, lying. "It's worth a lot of money! And you stole it from me! Now you have to pay!"
+
+He demanded that they give him their toys, their snacks, and their money. He said he would call the police if they did not. Jill and Tom were scared and sad. They had no choice but to give him everything they had.
+
+They learned a hard lesson that day. They realized that they should not have played with the coal in the first place. They also learned that not everything that glitters is gold. They wished they had listened to their parents, who had told them to be careful and honest. They decided to never join anyone who was doing something wrong again.
+Mia liked to play with clay. She had many colors of clay and she made animals and flowers and houses with them. She put her clay in a big box and kept it in her room.
+
+One day, Mia went to visit her grandma with her mom and dad. She was happy to see her grandma, who gave her hugs and cookies and read her stories. But she also missed her clay. She wanted to make something for her grandma with her clay.
+
+She asked her mom if she could bring her clay box, but her mom said no. She said the clay box was too heavy and they had no space in the car. She said Mia could play with other toys at grandma's house. Mia felt frustrated. She did not want to play with other toys. She wanted to play with her clay.
+
+She tried to have fun at grandma's house, but she could not stop thinking about her clay. She looked for clay in grandma's drawers and closets, but she only found old papers and buttons and yarn. She asked grandma if she had any clay, but grandma said no. She said she had no clay, but she had some dough. She said Mia could play with the dough and make something with it.
+
+Mia was curious. She had never played with dough before. She followed grandma to the kitchen and saw a big bowl of white dough. Grandma gave her some dough and showed her how to roll it and shape it. Mia felt the dough in her hands. It was soft and sticky and warm. It was different from clay, but it was also fun. She started to make something with the dough. She made a round ball for the head, a long snake for the body, four small balls for the legs, and two ears. She made a dog with the dough.
+
+She showed her dog to grandma, who smiled and praised her. She said Mia was very clever and creative. She said she liked her dog very much. She said she would bake the dog in the oven and then Mia could paint it and keep it. Mia felt happy. She still missed her clay, but she also liked her dough dog. She hugged grandma and thanked her. She decided to make more things with the dough. She made a cat, a bird, a flower, and a house. She had fun with the dough. She did not feel frustrated anymore.
+Anna likes to help her mom wrap gifts for the season. She picks the paper with the stars and the tape with the glitter. She cuts the paper with the scissors, but not too much. She folds the paper around the gift and sticks the tape on it. She smiles when she sees the pretty gift.
+
+But Anna does not like to wrap the gift for her brother Tom. Tom likes smelly things, like socks and cheese and mud. Mom says Tom will like the gift, but Anna thinks it is yucky. It is a big jar of pickles. Anna does not like pickles. They are sour and green and smelly.
+
+Anna holds her nose and wraps the jar of pickles with the paper with the stripes and the tape with the dots. She does not cut the paper well, and it is too big. She does not fold the paper well, and it is too loose. She does not stick the tape well, and it is too sticky. She frowns when she sees the ugly gift.
+
+Anna puts the gift under the tree with the other gifts. She hopes Tom will not open it soon. She hopes he will not smell it. She hopes he will not eat it. She hopes he will like the other gifts better. She hopes he will give her a hug and say thank you. She loves her brother Tom, even if he likes smelly things.
+Anna liked to play with her toys. She had many toys, but her favorite was a figure of a princess. She always took the figure with her when she went to the park. She liked to pretend that the figure was her friend and they had adventures together.
+
+One day, a boy named Ben came to the park. He saw Anna's figure and wanted to play with it. He asked Anna, "Can I borrow your figure? I will give it back soon." Anna did not want to share her figure, but she did not want to be rude. She said, "Okay, you can borrow it for a little while. But be careful with it. It is very special to me."
+
+Ben took the figure and ran away. He did not play with it nicely. He threw it in the air, he buried it in the sand, he dipped it in the water. He did not care if the figure got dirty or broken. He just wanted to have fun.
+
+Anna waited for Ben to return her figure. She was very worried. She hoped that Ben would not hurt her figure. She loved her figure very much. She wished she had not let Ben borrow it.
+
+After a long time, Ben came back. He had a big smile on his face. He said, "Thank you for letting me borrow your figure. It was so much fun." He gave the figure back to Anna. But the figure was not the same. It was dirty, wet, and missing an arm. Anna was very sad. She cried and said, "What did you do to my figure? You ruined it. You are a bad boy. You did not keep your promise. You did not take care of my figure."
+
+Ben shrugged and said, "It's just a toy. It doesn't matter. You can get another one." He walked away, leaving Anna alone with her broken figure. Anna felt very angry and hurt. She wished she had never met Ben. She wished she had never let him borrow her figure.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be careful who you trust with your things. Some people may not respect them or return them in good condition. It is better to say no than to lose something you love.
+Sam and Jen were twins who liked to travel. They had a big bowl that they used as a boat. They put the bowl in the bathtub and filled it with water. Then they climbed inside and pretended to sail to different places.
+
+"Where are we going today?" Jen asked Sam.
+
+"Today we are going to the jungle," Sam said. "We will see monkeys and snakes and big green trees."
+
+"Wow, that sounds fun!" Jen said. "But how will we get there?"
+
+Sam pointed to a shampoo bottle. "This is our motor," he said. "We will use it to make the water move and push our boat."
+
+He squeezed the bottle and made bubbles come out. The bubbles made the water swirl and the bowl rocked gently. Sam and Jen laughed and held on to the sides of the bowl.
+
+They imagined they were in the jungle, hearing the sounds of animals and feeling the heat of the sun. They had a lot of fun with their ordinary bowl that became a boat. They liked to travel and explore new places, even if they were only in their bathtub.
+Lily and Tom were having a birthday party for their dog, Spot. They baked a cake and put a candle on it. They sang "Happy Birthday" and then Tom said, "Let's blow out the candle and eat the cake!"
+
+But Spot was too excited. He jumped on the table and tried to eat the candle. He bit it and it was rough and hot. He yelped and spat it out. Lily and Tom were shocked and scared.
+
+"Spot, no! That's not food! That's fire!" Lily shouted.
+
+"Are you okay, boy? That was a bad idea!" Tom said.
+
+They hugged Spot and checked his mouth. He was not hurt, but he was sorry. He licked their faces and wagged his tail. He looked at the cake and sniffed it. It smelled good.
+
+"Okay, Spot, you can have some cake, but not the candle. That's for making a wish," Lily said.
+
+They blew out the candle together and cut the cake. They gave Spot a small piece and ate the rest. They laughed and played and had fun. Spot was happy and so were Lily and Tom. They loved their dog and he loved them. It was a good birthday party.
+Tom and Mia liked to play in the park. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. One day, they saw a big hole in the ground. It was a well. They wanted to look inside.
+
+"Be careful," said Tom. "It is very deep. You might fall in."
+
+"I won't fall in," said Mia. "I just want to see what is down there. Maybe there is water or fish or treasure."
+
+She leaned over the edge of the well and peered into the dark. She saw nothing but black. She felt something cold and wet touch her hand. She screamed and pulled back.
+
+"What is it?" asked Tom. "What did you feel?"
+
+"I don't know," said Mia. "It was slimy and scary. It tried to grab me. Let's go away from here."
+
+They ran away from the well as fast as they could. They did not look back. They did not see the green eyes that blinked in the well. They did not see the long tentacles that reached out of the well. They did not see the well disappear into the ground. They were glad they were safe. They never played near the well again.
+Lily liked to read books. She read every day. She read about animals, and stars, and magic. She learned many things from books.
+
+One day, she saw a worm in the garden. The worm was busy. It dug in the dirt. It made the soil good for plants. Lily wanted to talk to the worm.
+
+"Hello, worm," she said. "Do you like to read books?"
+
+The worm looked at Lily. It said, "No, I do not read books. I do not need books. I have the dirt. The dirt tells me everything I need to know."
+
+Lily was surprised. She said, "But books are fun. They have pictures, and stories, and facts. You can learn many things from books. You can read about other worms, and other places, and other things."
+
+The worm said, "I do not care about other worms, or other places, or other things. I only care about the dirt. The dirt is my home, and my food, and my friend. I do not need anything else."
+
+Lily felt sad. She said, "But you are missing so much. Books can make you happy, and curious, and smart. You can have more friends, and more fun, and more dreams. You can read with me, and we can share what we learn."
+
+The worm said, "No, thank you. I am happy, and busy, and smart enough. I do not want to read with you, or share what I learn. I only want to dig in the dirt. Goodbye, Lily."
+
+The worm went back to the dirt. Lily went back to her books. She thought the worm was silly. She thought the worm was boring. She thought the worm was lonely.
+
+She decided to read more books. She decided to make more friends. She decided to have more dreams. She learned that reading can open your mind, and your heart, and your world. She learned that reading is good.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the park with their dog, Spot. They liked to run, jump, and slide on the grass and the swings. Spot liked to chase the birds and the squirrels. He was a funny dog who made them laugh.
+
+But then the sky became dark and loud. It started to rain and thunder. Ben and Mia were scared. They wanted to go home, but they could not find their mom. She was talking to another mom on a bench. They ran to her and tugged on her coat.
+
+"Mom, mom, we want to go home! It is raining and thundering!" they cried.
+
+"OK, OK, calm down, sweeties. We will go home soon. I just need to quit talking to Mrs. Lee. She is my friend and we have not seen each other for a long time. Can you wait for a few minutes?" mom said.
+
+Ben and Mia shook their heads. They did not want to wait. They wanted to go home now. They were wet and cold and afraid. Spot was also wet and cold and afraid. He barked and whined.
+
+"Please, mom, please. We don't like the rain and the thunder. We want to go to our shelter. We want to be warm and safe and dry," they begged.
+
+Mom looked at them and saw their sad faces. She felt sorry for them. She also saw that Spot was shivering and unhappy. She smiled and hugged them.
+
+"OK, OK, you win. I will quit talking to Mrs. Lee now. We will go to our shelter. Come on, let's go. Say bye to Mrs. Lee and thank her for the cookies. And don't forget Spot. He is part of our family too," mom said.
+
+Ben and Mia said bye to Mrs. Lee and thanked her for the cookies. They took Spot by his leash and followed mom to the car. They were happy to go to their shelter. They hoped that the rain and the thunder would stop soon. They wanted to play in the park again with their funny dog.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to draw. They drew pictures of their family, their dog, their toys, and their dreams. One day, they decided to draw pictures for their grandma, who lived far away. They wanted to make her happy.
+
+They each took a big paper and some crayons. Sara chose green, her favorite color. She drew a big green tree with green apples and green birds. She wrote "I love you, Grandma" with green letters. Ben chose red, his favorite color. He drew a big red fire truck with red lights and red hoses. He wrote "I miss you, Grandma" with red letters.
+
+They showed each other their pictures and smiled. They thought they were perfect. They folded them carefully and put them in envelopes. They wrote Grandma's name and address on the front. They asked their mom to help them mail their pictures. Their mom said yes and took them to the mailbox.
+
+They waited and waited for Grandma to get their pictures. They wondered if she would like them. They hoped she would call them and tell them. They counted the days on the calendar.
+
+One day, the phone rang. It was Grandma! She sounded very happy. She said she got their pictures and she loved them. She said they were perfect. She said they made her day. She said she was proud of them. She said she loved them and missed them.
+
+Sara and Ben were very happy. They hugged each other and their mom. They said they loved Grandma and thanked her for calling. They said they would draw more pictures for her soon. They felt warm and fuzzy inside. They knew they had done something good.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with cars. Ben had a red car that was very fast. Lily had a blue car that was very pretty. They liked to race their cars on the floor and see who would win.
+
+One day, Ben said to Lily, "My car is better than yours. It has more speed. I always win the race. You have a slow car. You always lose the race."
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She said to Ben, "I don't like your car. It is too loud and too rough. You are not jolly. You are mean. You always make fun of me. I hate your car. I hate you."
+
+Ben felt hurt and mad. He said to Lily, "You are silly and stupid. You don't know anything about cars. You are not fun. You are boring. You always cry and whine. I hate your car. I hate you."
+
+They turned away from each other and played with their cars alone. They did not talk to each other or look at each other. They did not have fun.
+
+Later, their mom came home and saw them. She asked them, "Why are you so quiet and sad? What happened?"
+
+Ben and Lily told their mom what they said to each other. Their mom was shocked and sad. She said to them, "You should not say such hurtful words to each other. You are twins. You are family. You should love each other and share your cars. Your cars are not important. Your feelings are important. How would you feel if you lost your car or your twin?"
+
+Ben and Lily thought about what their mom said. They felt sorry and ashamed. They realized they were wrong and mean. They looked at each other and said, "We are sorry. We don't hate you. We love you. Can we play with your car?"
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They swapped their cars and played together. They had fun. They were jolly.
+Mia and Leo were at the park with their mom. They saw a man with a big bag of balloons. He was making animals and shapes with the balloons. Mia and Leo wanted to see more.
+
+"Mom, can we go see the balloons?" Mia asked.
+
+"Sure, let's go," mom said. They walked over to the man and saw him twist and bend the balloons. He made a dog, a flower, a hat, and a sword.
+
+"Wow, that's amazing!" Leo said.
+
+"Would you like a balloon?" the man asked Mia and Leo.
+
+"Yes, please!" they said.
+
+The man gave Mia a pink balloon heart and Leo a blue balloon dragon. They thanked him and ran back to mom.
+
+"Look, mom, look what we got!" Mia and Leo said, showing their balloons.
+
+"They are very nice," mom said. "Can I examine them?"
+
+Mia and Leo nodded and handed their balloons to mom. Mom looked at them carefully and smiled.
+
+"They are very well made," mom said. "The man is very talented."
+
+Mia and Leo agreed. They loved their balloons and played with them until it was time to go home. They thanked the man again and waved goodbye. They had a fun day at the park.
+Tommy loved trains. He had many toy trains in his room. He liked to make them go fast and make loud noises. He wanted to see a real train someday.
+
+One day, his mom said, "Tommy, we are going to the train station. You can see the big trains there. But you have to hold my hand and be careful. The trains are very big and fast. They can hurt you if you are not careful."
+
+Tommy was very happy. He put on his coat and hat. He held his mom's hand and walked to the bus stop. They took the bus to the train station. Tommy saw many people and cars and shops on the way. He asked his mom many questions.
+
+When they got to the train station, Tommy saw the big trains. They were shiny and colorful. They made loud noises and smoke. Tommy was amazed. He wanted to get closer and touch them. He let go of his mom's hand and ran to the platform.
+
+"Tommy, stop!" his mom shouted. "It's not safe to run there. Come back here!"
+
+But Tommy did not listen. He was too excited. He wanted to be independent. He wanted to see the trains by himself. He ran to the edge of the platform and looked down. He saw a big train coming. It was very fast and loud. It had a big horn and a bright light.
+
+Tommy was scared. He realized he made a mistake. He wanted his mom. He turned around and saw his mom running to him. She looked worried and angry. She grabbed his hand and pulled him back. She hugged him and said, "Tommy, you are very naughty. You could have been hurt by the train. You have to listen to me and stay with me. You are not independent yet. You are still a little boy. You need me to keep you safe."
+
+Tommy felt sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was curious. I wanted to see the trains. I didn't mean to be naughty. I love you, mom."
+
+His mom said, "I love you too, Tommy. I know you love trains. But you have to be careful and follow the rules. The trains are not toys. They are dangerous. Maybe when you are older, you can ride a train with me. But for now, you have to hold my hand and stay with me. OK?"
+
+Tommy nodded. He said, "OK, mom. I will hold your hand and stay with you. Can we still see the trains?"
+
+His mom smiled. She said, "Yes, we can still see the trains. But from a safe distance. Come on, let's go to the bench and watch them. Maybe we can see some different ones."
+
+Tommy and his mom walked to the bench. They sat down and watched the trains. Tommy saw some red ones, some blue ones, some green ones, and some yellow ones. He saw some long ones, some short ones, some old ones, and some new ones. He saw some with people, some with animals, some with cars, and some with boxes. He learned the names of some of them. He asked his mom many questions. He was happy. He still loved trains. But he loved his mom more. He held her hand and said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best."
+Lily was lonely. She had no friends to play with. She lived in a big house with her mom and dad, but they were always busy. Lily liked to go to the garden and look at the flowers and the trees. She wished she had someone to talk to and share her toys with.
+
+One day, she saw a red apple on a branch. It looked juicy and sweet. Lily wanted to eat it, but it was too high for her to reach. She tried to jump and stretch, but she could not touch it. She felt sad and angry. She wanted that apple!
+
+She looked around and saw a long stick on the ground. She had an idea. She picked up the stick and walked to the tree. She poked the stick at the apple, hoping to make it fall. But the apple was stuck to the branch. Lily poked harder and harder, but the apple did not move.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" a voice said. Lily was surprised. She looked at the apple and saw a face on it. It had eyes, a nose, a mouth, and a stem. The apple was talking to her!
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asked.
+
+"I'm Adam, the apple. And you are hurting me. Why are you poking me with that stick?" Adam said.
+
+"I'm sorry. I wanted to eat you. You look yummy," Lily said.
+
+"Eat me? No, no, no. That's not nice. I'm alive, like you. I have feelings, like you. I don't want to be eaten," Adam said.
+
+"Then what do you want?" Lily asked.
+
+"I want to be your friend. I'm lonely, too. I've been hanging on this branch for a long time, and no one talks to me. Will you be my friend?" Adam asked.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She felt sorry for Adam. He was lonely, like her. He was also cute and funny. Maybe he could be her friend.
+
+"Okay, I'll be your friend. But how can I play with you? You're too high for me to reach," Lily said.
+
+"That's easy. Just twist me gently, and I'll come off the branch. Then you can hold me and talk to me. But please don't eat me," Adam said.
+
+Lily smiled. She twisted Adam gently, and he came off the branch. She held him in her hands and looked at him. He smiled back at her.
+
+"Hello, friend," Lily said.
+
+"Hello, friend," Adam said.
+
+They hugged each other and laughed. Lily was not lonely anymore. She had a new friend. And Adam was happy, too. He had a new friend. And they lived happily ever after.
+Sara and Tom were happy to go camping with Mom and Dad. They had a big tent and a lot of toys. They wanted to play outside and see the animals.
+
+But when they got to the campsite, Mom and Dad said they had to unpack first. They had to take out the tent, the poles, the sleeping bags, and the food. Sara and Tom did not like to unpack. They wanted to play.
+
+"Can we play now?" Sara asked.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. We have to set up the tent first. Can you help me with the poles?" Mom said.
+
+Sara sighed and picked up a pole. It was long and thin. She tried to put it in the hole, but it was hard. She pushed and pushed, but it did not go in.
+
+Tom saw Sara struggling. He thought it was funny. He laughed and said, "You are too chubby to do it. Let me do it. I am strong and fast."
+
+Sara felt angry and sad. She did not like Tom calling her chubby. She was not chubby. She was just right. She threw the pole at Tom and said, "No, you are not. You are mean and rude. Go away!"
+
+The pole hit Tom on the head. He cried and said, "Ow, ow, ow! You hurt me! Mom, Sara hurt me!"
+
+Mom and Dad heard the noise and came over. They saw Tom crying and Sara frowning. They saw the pole on the ground and the tent not set up.
+
+"What happened here?" Dad asked.
+
+"Sara threw the pole at me. She is bad!" Tom said.
+
+"No, Tom called me chubby. He is bad!" Sara said.
+
+Mom and Dad looked at each other. They knew they had to calm down their children and teach them to be nice and helpful. They hugged them and said, "We are sorry you are upset. But you should not fight or hurt each other. You are brother and sister. You should love and help each other. And you should not call each other names. You are both beautiful and smart. And you are both good at different things. Sara, you are good at drawing and singing. Tom, you are good at running and jumping. Can you say sorry to each other and try to work together?"
+
+Sara and Tom looked at each other. They felt sorry for what they did and said. They nodded and said, "Sorry, Sara. Sorry, Tom."
+
+They hugged and said, "I love you, Sara. I love you, Tom."
+
+Mom and Dad smiled and said, "We love you, too. Now, let's finish unpacking and set up the tent. Then we can play and have fun."
+
+Sara and Tom agreed and helped Mom and Dad with the poles and the tent. They learned to be kind and cooperative. They had a great time camping and playing. They saw the animals and the stars. They were happy.
+One day, Tom and Lily went to visit their grandma. Grandma lived on a farm with many animals. Tom and Lily liked to see the cows, the pigs, the chickens and the horse. They also liked to play with the dog and the cat.
+
+But there was one animal that they were afraid of. It was a big, wild goose. The goose liked to chase and strike anyone who came near it. It had a long neck, a sharp beak and big wings. It made a loud noise like "honk, honk, honk".
+
+One morning, Tom and Lily were walking to the barn with Grandma. They saw the goose sitting on a nest of eggs. Tom wanted to see the eggs, but Lily said, "No, Tom, don't go near the goose. It will strike you."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He ran to the nest and tried to touch an egg. The goose saw him and got very angry. It jumped up and flapped its wings. It struck Tom on the head with its beak. Tom cried out, "Ow, ow, ow!"
+
+Grandma heard Tom and ran to help him. She shooed away the goose and hugged Tom. She said, "Are you okay, Tom? You should not bother the goose. It is protecting its eggs. It is a wild animal, not a pet."
+
+Tom nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Grandma. I won't do it again." He rubbed his head and looked at the goose. The goose looked back at him and honked. Tom and Lily learned to respect the wild goose. They enjoyed the rest of their visit with Grandma and the other animals.
+Sam was a little boy who liked to play with his cars and trucks. He had many cars and trucks of different colors and sizes. He liked to make them zoom and crash on the floor. He also liked to wear his blue bathrobe that was soft and warm.
+
+One day, Sam's mom told him it was time to take a bath. Sam did not want to take a bath. He wanted to play with his cars and trucks more. He said, "No, mom, no bath! I want to play!"
+
+Mom said, "Sam, you have to take a bath. You are dirty and smelly. You can play with your cars and trucks after the bath. Come on, let's go."
+
+Sam was angry and stubborn. He did not listen to mom. He ran away from her and hid under the bed. He took his cars and trucks with him. He thought mom would not find him there.
+
+But mom was smart and patient. She knew where Sam was hiding. She did not yell or scold him. She waited for a while and then said, "Sam, I have a surprise for you. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Sam was curious and bored. He wanted to see the surprise. He said, "What is it, mom? What is the surprise?"
+
+Mom said, "Come out from under the bed and I will show you. It is something you will like."
+
+Sam crawled out from under the bed and followed mom to the bathroom. There he saw a big tub full of bubbles and water. Mom had put some of his cars and trucks in the tub. She said, "Look, Sam, you can play with your cars and trucks in the bath. They can float and splash and have fun. You can also make bubbles with your hands and blow them. Isn't that fun?"
+
+Sam was happy and excited. He said, "Wow, mom, that is fun! Thank you, mom! Can I take a bath now?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, you can, Sam. But first, you have to take off your bathrobe and put it on the hook. You don't want it to get wet and dirty, do you?"
+
+Sam said, "No, mom, I don't. I will take off my bathrobe and put it on the hook. Then I will take a bath and play with my cars and trucks."
+
+Mom said, "Good boy, Sam. I am proud of you. You are not helpless. You can do things by yourself. Now, let's take a bath and have fun."
+
+Sam took off his bathrobe and put it on the hook. Then he jumped into the tub and played with his cars and trucks. He made bubbles and blew them. He laughed and splashed. He had a lot of fun. He also got clean and fresh. He did not mind taking a bath anymore. He liked it. He said, "Mom, I love you. You are the best mom ever."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, Sam. You are the best son ever. Now, let's dry you off and put on your bathrobe. Then we can read a story and go to bed."
+
+Sam said, "OK, mom. That sounds good. Can we read a story about cars and trucks?"
+
+Mom said, "Sure, Sam. We can read any story you want. You are a smart and brave boy. You can learn new things every day. You can increase your knowledge and skills. You can be anything you want to be."
+
+Sam said, "Thank you, mom. You are a kind and wise mom. You help me grow and learn. You make me happy."
+
+Mom said, "You are welcome, Sam. You make me happy too. Now, let's cuddle and read a story. Good night, Sam."
+
+Sam said, "Good night, mom."
+Tom is a strong boy. He likes to play with his toys and run in the park. He has a big bowl of soup for lunch every day. He thinks soup makes him strong.
+
+One day, Tom goes to the park with his mom. He sees a new boy on the swing. The new boy is smaller than Tom. He has a red hat and a blue coat. Tom wants to play with him.
+
+Tom runs to the swing and says, "Hi, I am Tom. Do you want to play with me?" The new boy looks at Tom and says, "No, I don't. Go away. This is my swing."
+
+Tom feels angry and sad. He thinks the new boy is mean. He says, "You are not nice. You have to share. This is a big park. There are many swings."
+
+The new boy says, "No, I don't. This is my park. I don't like you. You are too big and loud."
+
+Tom feels more angry and sad. He wants to push the new boy off the swing. He thinks he is stronger than him. He says, "You are not strong. You are weak. I can push you off the swing."
+
+The new boy says, "No, you can't. You are not strong. You are silly. I can kick you with my feet."
+
+Tom and the new boy start to fight. They push and kick and shout. They don't have fun. They hurt each other.
+
+Mom sees Tom and the new boy fighting. She runs to them and says, "Stop, stop, stop! What are you doing? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Tom and the new boy stop fighting. They look at mom. They feel ashamed. They say, "Sorry, mom."
+
+Mom says, "Why are you sorry? What happened?"
+
+Tom says, "He is a new boy. He didn't want to play with me. He didn't want to share the swing. He was mean to me."
+
+The new boy says, "He is a big boy. He wanted to play with me. He wanted to take the swing. He was mean to me."
+
+Mom says, "You are both wrong. You are both mean. You have to be nice. You have to share. You have to play together. This is a park for everyone. You can have fun together."
+
+Tom and the new boy look at each other. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Tom. Sorry, new boy."
+
+Mom says, "That's better. Now, what are your names?"
+
+Tom says, "I am Tom."
+
+The new boy says, "I am Sam."
+
+Mom says, "Tom, this is Sam. Sam, this is Tom. You are both boys. You are both in the park. You can be friends."
+
+Tom and Sam smile. They say, "Hi, Sam. Hi, Tom."
+
+Mom says, "Good. Now, do you want to play together?"
+
+Tom and Sam say, "Yes, we do."
+
+Mom says, "Good. Then, let's go to the slide. The slide is fun. You can take turns. You can help each other. You can laugh together."
+
+Tom and Sam say, "Yes, let's go to the slide."
+
+Mom says, "Good. Come on, boys. Let's go."
+
+Tom and Sam run to the slide. They hold hands. They say, "We are friends. We are strong. We are happy."
+
+Mom follows them. She smiles. She says, "You are welcome. You are good. You are sweet."
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and draw pictures. One day, Sara brings a new thing to school. It is a shiny ball that makes noises when you shake it. Sara is very happy with her thing.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is my new thing. It is a ball. It is shiny and noisy. Do you want to play with it?" Sara says.
+
+Ben looks at the thing. He likes shiny and noisy things. He wants to play with it too. But he does not ask Sara. He grabs the thing from Sara's hand and runs away.
+
+"Hey, Ben, give me back my thing! That is not nice!" Sara shouts. She runs after Ben.
+
+Ben does not listen. He shakes the thing and laughs. He thinks it is fun. He does not see the big rock in front of him. He trips over the rock and falls down. The thing flies out of his hand and breaks. It is not shiny and noisy anymore. It is quiet and sad.
+
+Sara catches up with Ben. She sees the broken thing. She feels very sad. She starts to cry.
+
+"Ben, you broke my thing! It was my favorite thing! How could you do that?" Sara says.
+
+Ben sees Sara's tears. He feels very sorry. He did not mean to break the thing. He did not mean to make Sara cry. He says:
+
+"Sara, I am sorry. I was bad. I should not have taken your thing. I should have asked you first. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Sara looks at Ben. She sees that he is sorry. She remembers that he is her friend. She says:
+
+"Ben, I forgive you. You are my friend. But you have to be more careful. You have to be nice to other people's things. And you have to share. Sharing is good."
+
+Ben nods. He hugs Sara. He says:
+
+"Thank you, Sara. You are my friend too. I will be more careful. I will be nice. And I will share. Sharing is good."
+
+Sara and Ben smile. They go to the teacher. They tell her what happened. The teacher gives them a new thing to play with. It is a soft bear that sings songs. Sara and Ben like the bear. They play with it together. They are happy.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be nice to other people's things. Ask before you take. Share with your friends. Say sorry when you make a mistake. Forgive when someone says sorry.
+Sara and Ben were on a trip with their mom and dad. They drove a long time in the car and saw many things. They saw cows, trees, mountains, and lakes. Sara and Ben liked to play games in the car. They liked to count things and add them up.
+
+"Look, Ben, I see five birds in the sky. How many birds are there if I add two more?" Sara asked.
+
+"Five and two is seven, Sara. I know that. Can you add these?" Ben said. He pointed to three cars and four trucks on the road.
+
+"Three and four is seven, too. That's easy, Ben. Give me a harder one," Sara said.
+
+They kept playing until they reached a big city. There were many tall buildings and bright lights. Mom and dad said they were going to stay in a hotel for the night. Sara and Ben had never been to a hotel before. They were curious and excited.
+
+They got out of the car and followed mom and dad to the hotel. The hotel was very big and had many doors and windows. Mom and dad checked in at a desk and got a key. They took Sara and Ben to an elevator. The elevator was a small room that moved up and down. Sara and Ben pressed the buttons and watched the numbers change.
+
+They got to their room and opened the door. The room had two beds, a TV, a table, and a bathroom. Sara and Ben ran to the window and looked outside. They saw many unknown people and cars and shops. They wondered what they were doing and where they were going.
+
+"Wow, this is so cool. I want to see more of the city," Sara said.
+
+"Me too. Maybe we can go for a walk later," Ben said.
+
+"First, we have to eat dinner and rest. We had a long day," mom said.
+
+"OK, mom. But can we play one more game?" Sara asked.
+
+"Sure, what game do you want to play?" mom asked.
+
+"Let's play add. We can add things we see in the room," Sara said.
+
+"OK, that sounds fun. I'll start. I see two beds and one TV. How many things are there if I add them?" mom asked.
+
+Sara and Ben thought for a moment and then said together, "Three!"
+
+They smiled and clapped their hands. They liked to play add. They liked to learn new things. They liked to be in the hotel. They liked to be on a trip. They were happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the woods. They liked to find sticks and stones and make things with them. They saw a big tree with a hole in it. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+They walked to the tree and looked in the hole. It was dark and quiet. They saw something shiny and sharp. It was an axe. They did not know what an axe was, but they wanted to touch it.
+
+They reached for the axe, but they heard a loud growl. They turned around and saw a big bear. The bear was angry and hungry. It wanted the axe and the children.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They ran away from the tree and the bear. They ran to their mom and dad, who were having a picnic. They told them what they saw.
+
+Mom and dad hugged them and said they were brave. They said they should not go near the tree or the axe again. They said the bear might hurt them. They said they were safe now. Lily and Tom nodded and smiled. They were happy to be with their mom and dad. They did not want to play in the woods anymore.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their marbles in the garden. They had many marbles of different colors and sizes. They liked to roll them on the grass and see which one went the farthest.
+
+"Look, Lily, this is my best marble!" Tom said, holding up a shiny blue marble. "It is very fast and smooth. Do you want to try it?"
+
+"Yes, please, Tom!" Lily said, smiling. She took the blue marble and rolled it with all her strength. The marble zoomed across the grass and hit a big rock. It bounced back and landed near Tom's feet.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that was a great roll!" Tom said, clapping his hands. "You are very good at marbles. Can I have my blue marble back now?"
+
+"Sure, Tom, here you go." Lily said, picking up the marble and giving it to Tom. "But can I see your other marbles? They are all so beautiful."
+
+Tom nodded and opened his bag. He showed Lily his other marbles, one by one. He had a red marble, a green marble, a yellow marble, and a white marble. He told Lily where he got them and what he liked about them.
+
+Lily listened and looked at the marbles with wonder. She touched them gently and said nice things about them. She said they were like little stars or rainbows or snowflakes.
+
+Tom and Lily were having so much fun with their marbles that they did not notice the sun was setting. The sky turned pink and purple and orange. The marbles sparkled in the light.
+
+"Tom, Lily, it's time to go inside!" their mom called from the house. "It's getting dark and cold. Come and have some dinner and then rest."
+
+"Okay, mom, we're coming!" Tom and Lily said, putting their marbles back in their bags. They ran to the house, holding hands. They were happy and tired. They had a yummy dinner and then went to bed. They dreamed of their marbles and their friendship. They were the best of friends.
+Ben and Lily liked to play with their dad's old film camera. They pretended to be movie stars and directors. They took turns to roll the film and say "action" and "cut". They had a lot of fun.
+
+One day, they found a film that was not in the camera. It was in a box under the bed. They were curious. They wanted to see what was on the film. They took it out of the box and put it in the camera.
+
+They rolled the film and looked through the lens. They saw a picture of their dad and a lady. They did not know the lady. She was not their mom. They looked troubled. They wondered who she was and why she was with their dad.
+
+They heard their dad coming up the stairs. They were scared. They did not want him to see them with the film. They quickly took it out of the camera and put it back in the box. They hid the box under the bed. They pretended to play with their toys.
+
+Their dad came into the room. He smiled at them and asked them what they were doing. They said they were playing with the camera. He did not notice the film. He did not know they had seen the picture. He did not know they were troubled.
+Sara and Ben are playing with their toys. Sara has a doll and Ben has a car. They are happy and share their toys. But then Sara sees a shiny chain on the floor. She likes the chain and wants it. She picks up the chain and puts it on her doll.
+
+Ben sees the chain and wants it too. He thinks the chain is for his car. He says to Sara, "Give me the chain. It is mine." Sara says, "No, it is mine. It is for my doll." They both pull the chain and get angry.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the chain and says, "This is not a toy. This is my necklace. I dropped it by mistake. It is not for you to play with." She takes the chain and puts it on her neck.
+
+Sara and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We did not know. We both wanted the chain." Mom says, "It is okay. I know you like shiny things. But you have to be careful and not take things that are not yours. And you have to be nice and not fight with each other. Can you do that?"
+
+Sara and Ben nod and hug Mom. They say, "Yes, Mom. We can do that. We love you." Mom says, "I love you too. You are my helpful children. Now, why don't you play with your toys again? And maybe you can trade them sometimes and see how fun it is." Sara and Ben smile and agree. They go back to their toys and play together. They are happy and share their toys.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. One day, they find a big zip in the park. The zip is shiny and long. It goes up and down a hill.
+
+"Wow, look at the zip!" Tim says. "Let's go on it!"
+
+Sam is scared. He does not like high things. He shakes his head. "No, thank you. You go first."
+
+Tim decides to be brave. He holds the zip with both hands. He runs and jumps on the zip. He feels the wind in his hair. He goes very fast. He laughs and shouts. "This is fun! Come on, Sam!"
+
+Sam watches Tim. He sees that Tim is happy. He wants to be happy too. He decides to try the zip. He holds the zip with both hands. He runs and jumps on the zip. He feels the wind in his face. He goes very fast. He smiles and yells. "This is fun! You are right, Tim!"

+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a secret spot under a big tree, where they hid their toys and snacks.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He had a red bike and a blue hat. He looked playful, so Lily and Ben went to say hello.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily and this is Ben. What's your name?" Lily asked.
+
+"I'm Max. Do you want to play with me?" Max said.
+
+"Sure, what do you want to play?" Ben said.
+
+Max smiled and pointed to his bike. "Let's race! I bet I can go faster than you!"
+
+Lily and Ben liked to race, so they agreed. They got their bikes and followed Max to the start line. Max said he would count to three and then they would go.
+
+But Max was not a nice boy. He had a secret plan. He wanted to take Lily and Ben's secret spot and their toys and snacks. He waited until they were not looking and then he picked up a stick. He hid it behind his back.
+
+"One, two, three, go!" Max shouted and pedaled away. Lily and Ben followed him, but they did not see the stick. Max threw the stick at Ben's bike, hoping to make him fall.
+
+But Max was not very good at throwing. He missed Ben and hit Lily instead. Lily's bike wobbled and she lost her balance. She fell to the ground and scraped her knee. She cried out in pain.
+
+Ben saw what happened and stopped. He ran to Lily and helped her up. He saw the stick and realized what Max had done. He was very angry.
+
+"Max, you are mean! You hurt Lily on purpose! You are not our friend!" Ben yelled.
+
+Max did not care. He laughed and rode away. He thought he had won. He went to the big tree and looked for Lily and Ben's secret spot. He wanted to take their toys and snacks.
+
+But he did not find them. He only found a note that said: "We know you are mean. We moved our secret spot. You will never find it. Bye, bye, Max!"
+
+Lily and Ben had seen Max's bike before. They knew he was new and they did not trust him. They had moved their secret spot to another tree, where they had more toys and snacks. They had left the note to trick Max.
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They were still best friends. They did not need Max. They got on their bikes and rode away. They looked for a new game to play. They were happy and playful.
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park and share their toys. One day, they found a note on the ground. It was dirty and had a bad smell. Lily wanted to read it, but Ben said no.
+
+"That note is disgusting," Ben said. "We should not touch it. It might make us sick."
+
+But Lily was curious. She wanted to know what the note said. She did not trust Ben. She thought he was hiding something from her. She grabbed the note and ran away.
+
+"Come back, Lily!" Ben shouted. "That note is not for you!"
+
+Lily ran to a bench and opened the note. She saw some words that she did not know. She tried to sound them out, but they were hard. She felt a sting on her finger. She looked and saw a red spot. The note had a sharp edge that cut her.
+
+"Ow!" Lily cried. "This note hurts!"
+
+Ben ran to her and saw the blood. He felt sorry for Lily. He took the note and threw it in the trash. He got a band-aid from his backpack and put it on Lily's finger.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily said. "I should have trusted you. You are my best friend."
+
+"It's okay, Lily," Ben said. "I forgive you. You are my best friend too."
+
+They hugged and smiled. They decided to play with their toys instead of looking for notes. They had more fun that way.
+Lily was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new places. One day, she found a big box in her backyard. It had a sign on it that said "For Lily". She wondered who sent it to her and what was inside.
+
+She ran to the house and asked her mom. "Mom, can I open the box? It has my name on it!"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can. It's a gift from your grandma. She wanted to surprise you for your birthday."
+
+Lily was very happy and excited. She thanked her mom and ran back to the box. She tore off the paper and opened the lid. Inside, she saw a beautiful doll with long hair and a pink dress. She also saw a book with colorful pictures and a map.
+
+Lily hugged the doll and said, "Wow, thank you, grandma! She is so pretty and soft. What is her name?"
+
+She looked at the book and saw that it was a story about a princess who went on an adventure around the world. The map showed all the places she visited. Lily said, "This is awesome! I want to read this book and follow the map. Maybe I can go on an adventure too!"
+
+She put the doll and the book in her backpack and said goodbye to her mom. She took her bike and rode to the park. She wanted to find a spot where she could read and imagine. She was ready for a new adventure. She was glad she received such a wonderful gift.
+Lila was hungry. She wanted to eat rice. Rice was her favorite food. She saw a big pot of rice on the stove. It smelled good. But Mama said, "No, Lila. The rice is hot. You have to wait."
+
+Lila did not want to wait. She wanted to eat rice now. She saw a spoon on the table. She took the spoon and ran to the stove. She was not careful. She did not see the cat.
+
+The cat was sleeping on the floor. The cat did not like to be stepped on. The cat hissed and scratched Lila's leg. Lila dropped the spoon and cried. The spoon hit the pot and made a loud noise. The rice spilled out of the pot and onto the floor.
+
+Mama heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw Lila crying, the cat running, and the rice on the floor. She was not happy. She said, "Lila, what did you do? You made a big mess. You hurt the cat. You burned your hand. You should have listened to me. The rice was hot. You have to wait."
+
+Lila was sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, Mama. I was hungry. I wanted to eat rice. I did not mean to make a mess. I did not mean to hurt the cat. I did not mean to burn my hand. I was not good. I was bad."
+
+Mama hugged Lila and said, "It's okay, Lila. I know you were hungry. I know you like rice. But you have to be careful. You have to be patient. You have to be good. You have to listen to me. I love you, Lila. But you have to wait."
+
+Lila nodded and said, "I love you, Mama. I will wait. I will be careful. I will be patient. I will be good. I will listen to you."
+
+Mama smiled and said, "That's good, Lila. Now let's clean up the mess. Then we can eat some rice. But not too much. The rice is still hot. You have to wait."
+Ben and Lily were very happy. They were going on vacation with Mom and Dad. They packed their bags and got in the car. They drove for a long time until they reached a big house by the sea.
+
+"Wow, this house is so big and pretty!" Lily said. "Is this where we are staying?"
+
+"Yes, this is our vacation house," Mom said. "We rented it from a nice lady who is very rich. She has many things in her house that we can use, like toys and books and games."
+
+Ben and Lily ran inside the house and looked around. They saw a big room with a sofa and a TV and a fireplace. They saw a kitchen with a fridge and a stove and a table. They saw a bathroom with a tub and a shower and a sink. They saw two bedrooms with beds and closets and windows. They saw a balcony with chairs and a table and a view of the sea.
+
+But the best thing they saw was a big toy box in the corner of the living room. They opened it and found many fun things inside. They found dolls and cars and puzzles and blocks. They found a ball and a bat and a glove. They found a kite and a frisbee and a bucket. And they found a spinner.
+
+A spinner was a toy that had a handle and a string and a round thing with colors. You pulled the string and the round thing spun very fast and made a noise. Ben and Lily loved the spinner. They took turns pulling the string and watching the round thing spin.
+
+"Look, it's spinning!" Ben said.
+
+"It's so pretty!" Lily said.
+
+They played with the spinner for a long time. They tried to make it spin faster and slower and louder and quieter. They tried to make it spin on the floor and on the table and on the sofa. They tried to make it spin in the air and catch it with their hands.
+
+They had so much fun with the spinner that they forgot about the other toys and the house and the sea. They only wanted to spin and spin and spin. They laughed and clapped and cheered.
+
+Mom and Dad watched them from the balcony. They smiled and hugged each other.
+
+"They are having a great time," Mom said.
+
+"Yes, they are," Dad said. "This is the best vacation ever."
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play and share. But sometimes they want the same thing. One day, Mom makes muffins for breakfast. She puts them on the table and says, "You can each have one muffin. But you have to wait until they cool down."
+
+Sara and Ben look at the muffins. They smell good. They see one muffin that is bigger and has more chocolate chips. They both want that muffin. They point at it and say, "I want that one!"
+
+Mom says, "You can't both have the same muffin. You have to choose another one. There are many beautiful muffins here. Look at this one with blueberries, or this one with nuts."
+
+But Sara and Ben do not listen. They both reach for the big muffin. They pull and tug. The muffin breaks in half. The chocolate chips fall on the floor. Sara and Ben start to cry.
+
+Mom says, "Oh no! Look what you did. You ruined the muffin. And you made a mess. That was not nice. You have to say sorry to each other. And then you have to help me clean up."
+
+Sara and Ben feel bad. They say sorry to each other. They hug and make up. They help Mom pick up the chocolate chips. Then they choose another muffin. They say thank you to Mom. They eat their muffins and smile. They learn to share and be happy.
+Sara and Ben like to visit their grandma every week. She lives in a big house with a garden and a cat. They always have fun with her and the cat.
+
+One day, grandma said she had a surprise for them. She took them to a new place where they could eat. It was called a restaurant. There were many people and tables and chairs. A nice man gave them a menu. It had pictures of different foods.
+
+Sara and Ben looked at the menu. They wanted to try everything. They were very hungry and competitive. They said, "I want this, and this, and this!" They pointed at the pictures. Grandma smiled and said, "You can't have everything. You have to choose one thing each. And you have to share with me and the cat."
+
+Sara and Ben thought hard. They wanted to pick the best thing. They looked at each other and said, "I want the same thing as you!" They both pointed at the same picture. It was a big pizza with cheese and tomatoes and mushrooms.
+
+Grandma laughed and said, "Okay, okay. We can have the pizza. But you have to leave some for me and the cat." She told the nice man what they wanted. He nodded and went away.
+
+Soon, the pizza came. It was hot and smelled good. Sara and Ben each took a big slice. They ate and ate. They said, "Mmm, this is yummy!" They were very happy. They gave some to grandma and the cat. They were happy too.
+
+They finished the pizza. They were full and satisfied. They thanked grandma for the surprise. She hugged them and said, "You're welcome, my darlings. I love you very much." They said, "We love you too, grandma." They went back to her house. They played with the cat and told her stories. They had a wonderful day.
+Tom and Anna liked to watch the big crane at the building site. It was very tall and strong and could lift heavy things. Sometimes it made loud noises that scared them, but they still wanted to see what it was doing.
+
+One day, they went to the park with their mom and saw the crane from a distant hill. They ran to the fence and pointed at it.
+
+"Look, mom, the crane is moving!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, it is. It is putting a big window on the building. Do you see?" Mom said.
+
+Anna nodded. She saw the big window hanging from a rope. It was shiny and had many colors.
+
+"Wow, it is so pretty!" Anna said.
+
+They watched the crane carefully lower the window into place. Then they heard a loud bang. Something bad happened. The window broke into many pieces. They fell to the ground and made a big mess.
+
+"Oh no, the window is broken!" Tom said.
+
+"That is not good. The crane made a mistake. I hope no one is hurt," Mom said.
+
+She hugged Tom and Anna and took them away from the fence. They were sad for the window and the crane. They hoped they could fix it soon.
+Anna loves strawberries. She likes to eat them, to draw them, and to dress like them. She has a red dress with white dots that looks like a big strawberry. She wears it every day.
+
+One day, Anna goes to the park with her mom. She sees a boy playing with a ball. He has a blue shirt with yellow stars. He looks interesting. Anna wants to play with him.
+
+"Hi, I'm Anna. Do you want to play with me?" she asks.
+
+The boy looks at her and laughs. "No, I don't. You look silly. You are wearing a strawberry dress. That's for babies. I'm a star. Stars are cool. Go away, strawberry girl."
+
+Anna feels sad and angry. She doesn't like the boy. He is mean. She runs to her mom and tells her what happened.
+
+Her mom hugs her and says, "Don't listen to him, Anna. You are not silly. You are beautiful and creative. You can wear whatever you want. Your strawberry dress is lovely. It makes you happy. And happiness is the most important thing."
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Thank you, mom. You are right. I love my strawberry dress. And I love you."
+
+Her mom says, "I love you too, Anna. Come on, let's go find some nice friends to play with. Maybe we can share some strawberries with them."
+
+Anna nods and holds her mom's hand. She sees a girl with a green dress and a flower in her hair. She looks interesting. Anna thinks maybe she likes strawberries too. She decides to say hello.
+Sam liked to print pictures with his crayons. He had many books with animals and cars and houses that he could copy. He wanted to be a lawyer when he grew up, like his mom. She helped people with their problems and wore nice clothes.
+
+One day, Sam found a big book on his mom's desk. It had many words and numbers and stamps. He thought it looked like a fun book to print. He took his crayons and started to draw on the pages. He made a dog, a cat, a sun, and a flower. He was very happy with his work.
+
+His mom came home from work and saw the book. She was very angry. She said, "Sam, what did you do? This is a very important book. It is a contract for my client. I need it for tomorrow. You ruined it!"
+
+Sam felt very sad and scared. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to print like you. I wanted to be a lawyer."
+
+His mom sighed and hugged him. She said, "I know, Sam. I love you. But you can't print on my books. They are not for playing. They are for working. You have to be patient and wait until you are older. Then you can be a lawyer if you want. But for now, you have to print on your own books. Do you understand?"
+
+Sam nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I'm sorry. Can I help you fix the book?"
+
+His mom smiled and said, "Thank you, Sam. That is very kind of you. But I don't think we can fix it. I have to print a new one. Maybe you can help me by being quiet and letting me work. Can you do that?"
+
+Sam said, "Yes, mom. I can do that. I will be quiet and let you work. And I will print on my own books."
+
+His mom said, "Good. I'm proud of you, Sam. You are a good boy. And maybe one day, you will be a good lawyer too."
+Tom and Lily wanted to build a house for their toys. They found some wood and a hammer and some nails in the garage. They asked their dad if they could use them.
+
+"Be careful with the hammer and nails," their dad said. "They can hurt you if you are not serious. And don't make too much noise, your mom is sleeping."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and took the tools to the backyard. They put the wood on the grass and tried to make a square. Then they took the hammer and nails and tried to join the wood.
+
+Tom hit the nail with the hammer, but he missed and hit his finger. "Ow!" he cried. "That hurts!"
+
+Lily took the hammer from him and said, "Let me try. You have to be serious and look at the nail, not at the hammer." She hit the nail with the hammer and it went into the wood. "See? I did it!"
+
+Tom smiled and said, "Good job, Lily! You are very good at this. Can I try again?"
+
+Lily gave him the hammer and said, "Sure, but be careful. We need four nails for each corner of the square."
+
+Tom and Lily worked together and soon they had a square of wood with nails. They were very happy and proud. They had succeeded in making the base of their house. They hugged each other and said, "We did it! We are the best builders ever!"
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys because their parents were wealthy and bought them everything they wanted. They did not like to share their toys or mind their parents.
+
+One day, their parents went out and left them with a nanny. The nanny told them to play nicely and not to make a mess. But Tom and Sam did not listen to her. They took all their toys and threw them around the room. They laughed and shouted and did not mind the nanny.
+
+The nanny got angry and told them to stop. She said they were naughty and spoiled. She said they had to pick up their toys and put them away. But Tom and Sam did not listen to her. They said they did not have to do anything. They said they were wealthy and could do what they wanted. They did not mind the nanny.
+
+The nanny got very angry and decided to teach them a lesson. She took a big stick and chased them around the room. She said she would hit them if they did not mind her. Tom and Sam got scared and ran away from her. They tried to hide behind the wall.
+
+But the wall was not strong enough. It was old and cracked. When Tom and Sam leaned on it, it broke and fell down. Behind the wall was a big hole. Tom and Sam fell into the hole and hurt themselves. They cried and screamed for help. But the nanny did not help them. She said they deserved it for not minding her. She said they were not wealthy anymore. She said they were stuck in the hole. She left them there and went away.
+
+Tom and Sam were very sorry for what they did. They wished they had minded their parents and the nanny. They wished they had shared their toys and played nicely. They wished they had not broken the wall and fallen into the hole. But it was too late. They were not happy anymore. They had a bad ending.
+Lily liked to write in her orange diary every day. She wrote about her toys, her friends, her dreams and her secrets. She kept her diary under her pillow and never let anyone see it.
+
+One day, her big brother Tom came into her room. He was bored and wanted to play with Lily. He saw the orange diary on her bed and picked it up. He opened it and started to read.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" Lily shouted. She ran to Tom and tried to grab her diary. "That's mine! Give it back!"
+
+Tom laughed and held the diary high. He read some of Lily's words out loud. "I love my pink teddy bear. I wish I had a pony. I hate broccoli. I have a crush on Ben from school." He made fun of Lily and teased her.
+
+Lily felt angry and sad. She cried and begged Tom to stop. She wanted her diary back. She wanted her secrets to be safe.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He kept reading and laughing. He did not care about Lily's feelings. He did not close the diary. He did not give it back.
+
+He was a mean brother. He hurt Lily's heart. He ruined her diary. He made her day bad.
+Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to dance in the morning. They dance to the music on the radio. They jump and spin and clap their hands.
+
+One day, they are dancing in the kitchen. They see a big box of cereal on the table. They want to eat some. They climb on a chair and reach for the box. But the box is too heavy. It falls on the floor. The cereal spills everywhere.
+
+"Uh-oh," Tom says. "Mom will be mad."
+
+"Let's clean it up," Lily says. She gets a broom and a dustpan. Tom gets a cloth and a bucket. They try to sweep and wipe the cereal. But they make more mess. The cereal sticks to the floor and the cloth. The broom and the dustpan break. The bucket spills water.
+
+They hear Mom coming. They are scared. They hide under the table. They feel helpless.
+
+Mom sees the mess. She is very angry. She shouts at Tom and Lily. She says they are naughty and careless. She says they can't dance or eat cereal for a week. She makes them sit in the corner. They cry and say they are sorry. But Mom doesn't listen. She is too mad.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They zoom their cars on the floor and make loud noises.
+
+One day, their mom brings home a baby. She says the baby is their sister. She is very little and cute. She sleeps a lot and cries sometimes. Mom says they have to be gentle and quiet with the baby.
+
+Tom and Sam are curious about the baby. They want to see her and touch her. They go to her crib and look at her. She has tiny fingers and toes. She has soft hair and big eyes. She makes a funny sound.
+
+"Can we play with her?" Tom asks mom.
+
+"Not now, she is sleeping. You can play with her later when she wakes up. But you have to be careful and kind. She is not a toy, she is a person." Mom says.
+
+"OK, mom. We will wait." Sam says.
+
+They go back to their cars. But they do not zoom them as loud as before. They do not want to wake up the baby. They play with their cars quietly and gently. They learn to share and take turns. They are good brothers.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be respectful and caring to your siblings, especially when they are younger and more vulnerable.
+Jill and Ben were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big bird with a long neck and a small head. It was a swan. The swan was laying on a nest of sticks and feathers near the pond.
+
+"Look, Ben, a swan!" Jill said. "It is so pretty and white. Can we touch it?"
+
+"No, Jill, we can't," Ben said. "The swan might bite us. And we might hurt its eggs. The eggs have baby swans inside. They are very delicate. They need their mom to keep them warm and safe."
+
+"But I want to see the eggs," Jill said. "Maybe they have spots or stripes. Maybe they are blue or green. I want to hold one."
+
+Jill did not listen to Ben. She ran to the nest and reached for an egg. The swan saw her and got angry. It hissed and flapped its wings. It pecked Jill on the hand. Jill screamed and dropped the egg. The egg cracked and broke. The baby swan inside was not ready to come out. It was still very small and weak. It had no feathers and no eyes. It had a tiny brain that could not think or feel. It lay still and did not move.
+
+Jill and Ben were very sad and scared. They ran away from the nest and the swan. They found their mom and told her what happened. Their mom was very angry and disappointed. She took them home and gave them a time out. She told them they had done a very bad thing. They had hurt a living creature and its family. They had not respected nature and its rules. They had not listened to their brother and sister.
+
+Jill and Ben felt very sorry and ashamed. They cried and said they were sorry. They learned their lesson. They never tried to touch a swan or its eggs again. They learned to be kind and careful with animals and their babies. They learned to use their brain and not their hands. They learned that some things are very delicate and need to be left alone.
+Tommy likes to play with his toy cricket. He makes it hop and chirp on the grass. He pretends it is his friend and talks to it. He calls it Cricket.
+
+One day, Tommy's mom tells him it is time to go inside. She says he has to be obedient and do what she says. Tommy does not want to go inside. He wants to play with Cricket more. He says no to his mom.
+
+His mom is not happy. She says he has to go inside or he will be in trouble. She says he has to shut the door behind him. Tommy still says no. He runs away from his mom. He hides behind a tree with Cricket.
+
+His mom looks for him. She calls his name. She says he has to come out. Tommy does not come out. He stays behind the tree with Cricket. He thinks he is smart.
+
+But he is not smart. He is silly. He does not see the big dog that is coming. The big dog likes to chase things that hop and chirp. The big dog sees Cricket. The big dog runs after Cricket. Tommy is scared. He screams for his mom.
+
+His mom hears him. She sees the big dog. She runs to Tommy. She picks him up. She saves him and Cricket. She hugs him. She says he is safe. She says he has to listen to her. She says he has to be obedient. She says he has to shut the door behind him.
+
+Tommy says he is sorry. He says he will be obedient. He says he will shut the door behind him. He says he loves his mom. He says he loves Cricket. He says he does not like the big dog. His mom says she loves him too. She says she is glad he and Cricket are okay. She says they can play again tomorrow. She says they have to go inside now. Tommy says okay. He shuts the door behind him. He is obedient. He is happy.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, it was raining hard and they wanted to go to the park. Mom said they could go, but they had to listen to her and take an umbrella.
+
+They put on their boots and coats and ran to the door. Mom gave them a big yellow umbrella to share. "Don't lose it, okay?" she said. "And be careful of the puddles."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and went outside. They opened the umbrella and held it together. They liked how it made a sound like a drum when the rain hit it. They walked to the park, jumping over the puddles and singing songs.
+
+At the park, they saw a man sitting on a bench. He was bald and had a big beard. He looked sad and lonely. Lily and Ben felt sorry for him. They decided to give him their umbrella, so he wouldn't get wet.
+
+They ran to the bench and said, "Hello, mister. Do you want our umbrella? It's very nice and yellow."
+
+The man looked surprised and smiled. He said, "Thank you, kids. That's very kind of you. But why are you giving me your umbrella? Don't you need it?"
+
+Lily and Ben said, "We don't mind. We like the rain. It makes us happy. And you look sad. We want you to be happy too."
+
+The man took the umbrella and held it over his head. He said, "You are very sweet and generous. You made my day. But you know what? I have something for you too."
+
+He reached into his pocket and pulled out two lollipops. He gave one to Lily and one to Ben. He said, "Here, these are for you. They are very yummy and colorful."
+
+Lily and Ben thanked him and took the lollipops. They licked them and smiled. They said, "Wow, these are delicious. Thank you, mister. You are very nice and friendly."
+
+They hugged the man and said goodbye. They ran back to their mom, who was waiting for them at the door. They told her what happened and showed her their lollipops. Mom was proud of them and said, "You did a good thing, kids. You listened to me and took the umbrella. And you shared it with someone who needed it more. You are very good and smart."
+
+Lily and Ben felt happy and warm. They said, "We love you, mom. And we love our umbrella. And we love our lollipops. And we love the rain. And we love the bald man."
+Lila and Ben were playing with cubes in the playroom. They liked to build towers and castles with the cubes. Lila was very careful with her cubes. She made sure they were balanced and neat. Ben was careless with his cubes. He threw them around and knocked down Lila's towers.
+
+"Stop it, Ben!" Lila said. "You are ruining my towers!"
+
+"I don't care," Ben said. "It's fun to make them fall."
+
+Lila was very angry. She picked up a big cube and threw it at Ben. It hit him on the head and made him cry.
+
+"Ow! That hurt!" Ben said. "Why did you do that?"
+
+"You were mean to me," Lila said. "You deserved it."
+
+Lila and Ben started to argue. They did not reply to their mom when she called them for lunch. They did not hear her when she came to the playroom. She saw the mess and the crying. She was not happy.
+
+"What is going on here?" she asked. "Why are you fighting?"
+
+Lila and Ben looked at their mom. They felt sorry. They did not want to fight anymore. They said sorry to each other and to their mom. They hugged and made up. They helped their mom to clean up the cubes. They learned to be more careful and kind.
+Sam and Mia liked to draw with ink. They had many colors of ink in small bottles. They used brushes to make pictures on paper. They had fun making animals, flowers, and shapes.
+
+One day, they saw a big bottle of ink on the shelf. It was black and shiny. They wanted to see what it was. They climbed on a chair and reached for the bottle. But the bottle was too heavy and slippery. It fell from their hands and broke on the floor.
+
+The ink spilled everywhere. It made a big mess. It stained the carpet, the walls, and the furniture. It also splashed on Sam and Mia. They were covered in black ink. They looked like shadows.
+
+"Uh-oh," Sam said. "Mom will be mad."
+
+"Let's run away," Mia said. "Maybe she won't find us."
+
+They ran out of the house. They did not see the car coming. The car was fast and loud. It did not stop. It hit Sam and Mia. They flew in the air. They landed on the ground. They did not move. They did not breathe. They were gone.
+
+The driver of the car was scared. He got out of the car. He saw the two children. He saw the ink. He did not know what to do. He wanted to help. But it was too late. He called for help. But no one came. He was alone.
+
+He wished he could release the ink from his eyes. He wished he could release the guilt from his heart. He wished he could release the time from his hands. He wished he could go back. But he could not. He was stuck. He was distant. He was sad.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to splash in the pool and make bubbles with the hose. They were having a lot of fun, but they were also making a lot of noise.
+
+"Anna, Ben, time to come inside!" their mom called from the door. "You need to have a bath and get ready for bed."
+
+Anna and Ben did not want to stop playing. They pretended they did not hear their mom. They kept splashing and making bubbles.
+
+"Anna, Ben, I said come inside now!" their mom called again, louder. "You are soaking wet and it is getting dark. Don't make me come and get you!"
+
+Anna and Ben still did not listen. They thought their mom would not see them if they hid behind the bushes. They giggled and whispered to each other.
+
+But their mom was not happy. She put on her shoes and walked to the garden. She found Anna and Ben behind the bushes. She was not smiling.
+
+"Anna, Ben, you are very naughty!" she said. "You did not obey me when I called you. You made a big mess in the garden. And you broke the silence of the night. How do you think the birds and the bugs feel?"
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry. They knew they had done wrong. They looked at their mom with sad eyes.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," they said. "We just wanted to have fun. We did not mean to upset you or the birds or the bugs."
+
+Their mom sighed. She took their hands and led them to the house.
+
+"I know you wanted to have fun, but you also need to follow the rules," she said. "You need to be obedient and respectful. And you need to take care of yourself and the garden. Now, let's go and have a bath. Maybe we can play again tomorrow, if you behave well."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They hugged their mom and said they loved her. They went to have a bath and get ready for bed. They hoped the birds and the bugs would forgive them. They hoped their mom would let them play again tomorrow. They learned their lesson.
+Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had long hair, a pretty dress, and a smile. Lily took Anna everywhere with her. She hugged Anna, talked to Anna, and pretended Anna was her sister.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and Anna. She saw a big slide and wanted to try it. She asked her mom to hold Anna while she went on the slide. Her mom said yes and took Anna. Lily climbed the steps and slid down. It was fun!
+
+But when she got to the bottom, she saw a boy holding Anna. He had taken Anna from her mom when she was not looking. He said Anna was his doll now. Lily was angry and scared. She ran to the boy and tried to get Anna back. The boy pushed her and ran away.
+
+Lily cried and cried. She wanted Anna back. Her mom came and hugged her. She said she was sorry and that they would find the boy and Anna. She said she had something for Lily in her bag. She took out another doll. It was Elsa. Elsa had short hair, a blue dress, and a wink. Her mom said she had bought Elsa for Lily's birthday, but she could give it to her now. She said Elsa could be Lily's new doll. She said Elsa was very nice and smart and brave.
+
+Lily looked at Elsa. She was not Anna. She did not have long hair, a pretty dress, and a smile. She had short hair, a blue dress, and a wink. But she was also a doll. And she was a gift from her mom. And she looked friendly and fun. Lily wiped her tears and took Elsa. She said thank you to her mom. She said she would try to like Elsa. She said maybe Elsa could be her sister too. She hugged Elsa and smiled. Her mom smiled too. She said she was proud of Lily. She said Lily was very kind and strong and calm. She said they would still look for Anna, but they could also play with Elsa. Lily nodded. She said okay. She said she wanted to go on the slide again. She asked her mom to hold Elsa while she went on the slide. Her mom said yes and took Elsa. Lily climbed the steps and slid down. It was still fun!
+Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the pool and dive under the water. They had a lot of fun together.
+
+One day, it was Anna's birthday. She was very happy. She got a big present from her mom and dad. She opened it and saw a beautiful doll. She loved it.
+
+She wanted to show it to Ben. She ran to the pool with her doll. She saw Ben diving in the water. She called him.
+
+"Ben, Ben, look at my present! It is a doll. She is very pretty. Do you like her?"
+
+Ben came out of the water. He saw the doll. He did not like it. He wanted a present too. He was jealous.
+
+He said, "No, I don't like her. She is ugly. She is not a good toy. You are a silly girl. You should play with me, not with her."
+
+He grabbed the doll from Anna. He threw it in the water. He laughed.
+
+Anna was very sad. She cried. She tried to get her doll back. But the doll sank to the bottom of the pool. She could not reach her.
+
+She said, "Ben, why did you do that? She was my present. She was my friend. You are a bad boy. You are not my friend anymore."
+
+She ran away from the pool. She did not want to play with Ben ever again.
+
+Ben was alone. He felt sorry. He realized he was wrong. He wanted to say sorry to Anna. He wanted to be her friend again. But it was too late. He had lost her doll and her trust. He had no present and no loyal friend. He was very sad too.
+Ben and Mia were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells and rocks. Sometimes they found oysters, which were big and hard and had something shiny inside. Mom and dad said oysters were rich, because people paid a lot of money for them.
+
+One day, Ben and Mia found a big oyster on the shore. They were very happy and wanted to open it and see what was inside. But they did not have a knife or a rock to break it. They tried to pull it apart with their hands, but it was too strong.
+
+"Let me try," Ben said. He took the oyster from Mia and pulled hard. He could not open it either.
+
+"Give it back," Mia said. She wanted to try again. She grabbed the oyster from Ben and pulled harder. She could not open it either.
+
+They started to fight over the oyster. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see that a big wave was coming. The wave washed over them and took the oyster away.
+
+"Hey, where is the oyster?" Ben asked. He looked around and saw nothing.
+
+"It's gone," Mia said. She looked sad and angry.
+
+They both sighed. They had lost their rich oyster. They felt silly for fighting over it. They wished they had shared it or given it to mom and dad.
+
+They hugged each other and said sorry. They decided to play together and look for more oysters. Maybe they would find another one. Maybe they would find something even better. They smiled and ran to the water. They still liked the beach.
+Sam and Mia liked to play with rockets. They had many rockets of different colors and sizes. They made them fly in the air and land on the grass. They had fun with their rockets.
+
+One day, Sam got a new rocket. It was big and shiny and had a red nose. Sam was very happy with his new rocket. He showed it to Mia and said, "Look at my new rocket! It is the best rocket ever!"
+
+Mia looked at Sam's new rocket. She felt jealous. She wanted a big and shiny rocket too. She did not like her old rockets anymore. She said, "Your rocket is not so great. My rockets are better. They can fly higher and faster than yours."
+
+Sam did not like what Mia said. He felt angry. He said, "No, they can't. My rocket is the best. Watch this!" He set his new rocket on the ground and pressed a button. The rocket made a loud noise and flew up in the air. It went very high and very fast. Sam smiled and said, "See? My rocket is amazing!"
+
+Mia watched Sam's rocket fly. She felt more jealous. She wanted to make her rockets fly too. She picked up one of her old rockets and set it on the ground. She pressed a button. But nothing happened. The rocket did not make a noise or fly. It just stayed on the ground. Mia felt sad and said, "Why won't my rocket fly?"
+
+Sam saw Mia's rocket on the ground. He felt sorry for Mia. He remembered that they were friends and that they liked to play with rockets together. He said, "Maybe your rocket needs new batteries. Here, you can borrow some of mine." He took some batteries from his pocket and gave them to Mia. He helped her put them in her rocket. He said, "Now try again."
+
+Mia put her rocket on the ground and pressed a button. The rocket made a noise and flew up in the air. It went high and fast too. Mia smiled and said, "Thank you, Sam. Your batteries work. My rocket is flying!"
+
+Sam smiled back and said, "You're welcome, Mia. Your rocket is flying too. It is a good rocket. Do you want to fly our rockets together?"
+
+Mia nodded and said, "Yes, I do. I'm sorry I was jealous of your rocket. It is a very nice rocket. Can I try it?"
+
+Sam nodded and said, "Sure, you can. I'm sorry I was angry at you. You are a very nice friend. Can I try your rockets?"
+
+They swapped their rockets and set them on the ground. They pressed the buttons and watched them fly. They laughed and cheered. They had fun with their rockets. They were happy.
+Lily liked to grow sunflowers in her garden. She planted the seeds in the spring and watered them every day. She watched them grow taller and taller, until they had big yellow faces that smiled at her. She was very proud of her sunflowers.
+
+One day, a big storm came. The sky was dark and angry. The wind blew hard and the rain poured down. Lily was scared. She ran inside and hugged her teddy bear. She looked out the window and saw her sunflowers. They were bending and shaking in the wind. She hoped they would be okay.
+
+The next day, the storm was gone. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. Lily ran outside to see her sunflowers. She was happy to see that they were still standing. But they looked sad. Their faces were droopy and their petals were falling off. Lily felt sad too. She touched one of the sunflowers and felt how cold it was. It made her shiver.
+
+She ran back inside and asked her mom for a blanket. She said she wanted to cover her sunflowers and keep them warm. Her mom smiled and said that was very sweet of her. She gave her a blanket and helped her wrap it around the sunflowers. Lily hoped they would feel better soon.
+
+The next week, the sunflowers were still wrapped in the blanket. Lily checked on them every day. She saw that they were not getting any better. They were brown and dry and had no petals left. She asked her mom why they were not getting better. Her mom said that sunflowers need sun and water to grow and be happy. She said that the blanket was keeping them from getting what they needed. She said that sometimes things die and we have to let them go.
+
+Lily felt sad and confused. She loved her sunflowers and did not want to let them go. She asked her mom if she could grow new sunflowers. Her mom said yes, but they would have to wait until next spring. She said that sunflower seeds were not available now, but they could save some from the old sunflowers and plant them later. She said that sunflowers are very strong and can grow again from their seeds.
+
+Lily liked that idea. She asked her mom to help her take off the blanket and collect some seeds from the old sunflowers. She put them in a jar and labeled it "Lily's sunflower seeds". She said goodbye to her old sunflowers and thanked them for being her friends. She said she would grow new sunflowers next spring and make them happy. She smiled and hugged her mom. She felt a little better.
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they decided to build a big snowman in the park. They rolled big balls of snow and stacked them on top of each other. They gave the snowman a hat, a scarf, a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so big and nice!" Anna said.
+
+"Yes, he is! But he looks cold. Maybe we should find him a friend," Ben said.
+
+They agreed and started to search for more snow to make another snowman. But they could not find any. All the snow was gone or too dirty. They looked everywhere, but they only found ice and mud.
+
+"Where is all the snow?" Anna asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe the sun melted it," Ben said.
+
+They felt sad and went back to their snowman. But when they got there, they saw something strange. Their snowman was not alone. He had a small dog next to him, wagging his tail. The dog had a collar with a tag that said "Spot".
+
+"Who is this?" Anna asked.
+
+"I think he is a lost dog. Maybe he liked our snowman and wanted to be his friend," Ben said.
+
+They petted the dog and he licked their faces. He was warm and fluffy. They saw a phone number on his tag and called it. A woman answered and said she was looking for her dog. She thanked them and said she would come to the park soon.
+
+Anna and Ben were happy. They had helped a dog find his home and their snowman had a friend. They learned that sometimes you can find friends in unexpected places. They hugged the dog and the snowman and waited for the woman to arrive.
+Anna liked to dance. She danced at home, at school, and in the park. She was a good dancer. She wanted to be a dancer when she grew up.
+
+One day, Anna saw a poster for a dance show. It said, "Come and see the best dancers in the world!" Anna wanted to go. She asked her mom to let her go. Her mom said yes. She was happy.
+
+They went to the show. There were many people. There were lights and music. Anna was excited. She saw the dancers on the stage. They were amazing. They jumped and spun and flipped. Anna clapped and cheered.
+
+But then, something bad happened. One of the dancers fell. He hit his head on the floor. He did not get up. There was blood. The music stopped. The lights went off. The people screamed. Anna was scared. She cried. She wanted to go home.
+
+Her mom hugged her. She said, "It's okay, honey. It was an accident. The dancer will be okay. Let's go home." But Anna did not believe her. She did not want to be a dancer anymore. She was too scared. She never danced again.
+Sara and Ben like to play pretend. They pretend to be pirates and look for treasure. They have a big net to catch fish and a map to find the gold. They wear hats and scarves and say "Arrr!"
+
+One day, they go to the park and find a tall hill. They pretend it is an island and climb to the top. They see a shiny thing under a tree. They think it is the treasure and run to get it. But it is not gold, it is a trap!
+
+A mean boy named Max is hiding behind the tree. He made the trap with a net and a tin can. He wants to catch Sara and Ben and take their hats and scarves. He pulls a rope and the net falls on them. They are stuck and scared.
+
+But Sara and Ben are smart and brave. They use their teeth and hands to make a hole in the net. They crawl out and grab their hats and scarves. They run away from Max and his trap. They say "Arrr!" and laugh.
+
+They find another place to play pretend. They pretend to be pirates and look for treasure. They have a big net to catch fish and a map to find the gold. They are happy and have fun.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bush with red berries. They are hungry and want to eat some.
+
+But Tom remembers what his mom said. "Do not eat berries from the park. They can make you sick. Only eat berries from the store or the garden."
+
+He tells Mia to stop. He says, "These berries are bad. We cannot eat them. Let's go find something else."
+
+Mia is sad. She thinks the berries look good. She wants to try one. She says, "Tom is not fun. He is scared of everything. I will eat one berry. It will not hurt me."
+
+She picks a berry and puts it in her mouth. It is sour and bitter. She spits it out. She feels sick. Her tummy hurts. She cries.
+
+Tom hears her cry. He runs to her. He sees the berry on the ground. He knows she ate it. He is worried. He says, "Mia, you are silly. Why did you eat the berry? I told you it was bad. You need help. Come with me."
+
+He takes her hand and leads her to the bench. He sees a lady with a phone. He says, "Lady, please help. My friend ate a bad berry. She is sick. Can you call her mom?"
+
+The lady is alert. She sees Mia is pale and in pain. She says, "Oh, poor girl. Yes, I will call her mom. And I will call a doctor too. They will come soon. Do not worry."
+
+She takes out her phone and dials. She talks to Mia's mom and tells her what happened. She tells her where they are. She says, "Stay calm. I will stay with them until you get here."
+
+Tom and Mia lie on the bench. They wait for Mia's mom and the doctor. Tom holds Mia's hand. He says, "I am sorry, Mia. I did not want to be mean. I just wanted to keep you safe. I hope you feel better soon."
+
+Mia says, "I am sorry, Tom. I did not listen to you. I was curious and greedy. I hope the doctor can fix me. You are a good friend."
+
+They hug each other. They are scared and sorry. But they are also glad they have each other. They learn a lesson. They will not eat berries from the park again. They will only eat berries from the store or the garden.
+Anna was a gifted girl who liked to draw and sing. She had many friends at school who liked her drawings and songs. One day, her teacher told her that she had a meeting with some special people who wanted to see her work. Anna was happy and curious.
+
+"Who are they, teacher?" she asked.
+
+"They are from a big school for gifted children, Anna. They want to see if you would like to join them and learn more things," the teacher said.
+
+Anna was excited and nervous. She wanted to learn more things, but she also liked her school and her friends. She did not know what to do.
+
+The next day, she went to the meeting with her teacher. She saw two nice people who smiled at her. They had a big book with pictures of the big school and some of the things they did there. They showed Anna the book and asked her questions.
+
+"Do you like to draw, Anna?" one of them asked.
+
+"Yes, I do. I draw every day," Anna said.
+
+"That's wonderful. We have a lot of art classes and materials for you to use. You can draw anything you want," the other one said.
+
+They also asked her about singing, reading, math, and other things. Anna answered them and showed them some of her drawings and songs. They praised her and said she was very gifted and talented.
+
+They also told her that if she wanted to join the big school, she would have to leave her school and her friends. She would have to go to a new place and make new friends. They said it was a big decision and she could take her time to think about it.
+
+Anna thanked them and said goodbye. She went back to her teacher and hugged her. She felt happy and sad at the same time. She did not know what to do. She wanted to learn more things, but she also wanted to stay with her friends.
+
+She decided to ask her parents and her friends for advice. She hoped they would help her make the best choice. She knew she was gifted, but she also knew she was loved.
+Lily had a big red ball that she loved to play with. She took it to the park every day and bounced it high and low. She liked to share her ball with her friends, but not with strangers.
+
+One day, a mean boy came to the park. He saw Lily's ball and wanted it for himself. He waited until Lily was not looking and ran to grab her ball. He was a thief!
+
+Lily saw the thief and shouted, "Hey, that's my ball! Give it back!" She ran after him, but he was faster. He laughed and said, "No, it's mine now! You can't catch me!"
+
+Lily did not give up. She chased the thief across the park, but he was too clever. He dodged and weaved and hid behind trees and benches. Lily struggled to keep up. She was tired and angry and sad.
+
+The thief reached the gate of the park and threw the ball over the fence. He said, "Ha ha, now you'll never get your ball back!" He stuck out his tongue and ran away.
+
+Lily ran to the fence and saw her ball on the other side. It was on the road, where cars and buses and trucks zoomed by. She could not reach it. She could not cross the road. She could only cry.
+
+She had lost her ball and her smile. She felt sour in her heart. She wished the thief would get in trouble. She wished she had her ball back. She wished she had never met the thief.
+Anna liked to cook with her mom. She wanted to be a famous chef when she grew up. She had a toy stove and some pots and pans in her room. She liked to pretend she was making yummy food for her friends.
+
+One day, her mom said she could help her make a real cake in the kitchen. Anna was very happy. She put on her apron and followed her mom. Her mom showed her the ingredients and the recipe. She said Anna could choose some of the things to put in the cake.
+
+Anna looked at the bowl of fruit. She saw apples, bananas, oranges, and grapes. She liked all of them, but she could not choose which one to use. She wanted to use all of them. She thought it would make the cake more tasty and colorful.
+
+But her mom said no. She said too much fruit would make the cake too wet and mushy. She said Anna had to choose only one kind of fruit. Anna did not like that. She felt angry and sad. She did not want to choose. She wanted to make her own cake.
+
+She decided to sneak some fruit when her mom was not looking. She grabbed some grapes and put them in her pocket. She waited for her mom to turn on the stove and put the cake pan in. Then she quickly took out the grapes and threw them in the pan. She thought her mom would not notice.
+
+But she was wrong. Her mom saw the grapes and gasped. She turned off the stove and took out the pan. She saw the grapes melting and bubbling in the cake batter. She was very upset. She said Anna had ruined the cake. She said Anna had to go to her room and think about what she had done.
+
+Anna felt very bad. She realized she had made a mistake. She had not listened to her mom. She had not respected her mom's rules. She had not been a good helper. She wished she had chosen only one fruit. She wished she had not spoiled the cake. She wished she could say sorry to her mom. She ran to her room and cried.
+Jenny liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She liked to mix things in a big bowl with a spoon. She liked to see the colors and feel the textures. She liked to taste the yummy batter or dough.
+
+One day, her mom was making a cake for her dad's birthday. She told Jenny to look at the calendar and see when his birthday was. Jenny saw a lot of numbers and pictures on the wall. She was confused. She did not know what they meant. She pointed to a red heart and said, "This one?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "No, that's Valentine's Day. That's when we show love to each other. His birthday is the one with the candles and the balloons. Do you see it?"
+
+Jenny looked again and saw a picture of a cake with candles and balloons. She said, "This one?" Her mom nodded and said, "Yes, that's right. His birthday is tomorrow. We have to make the cake today and hide it in the fridge. Can you help me?"
+
+Jenny was happy and said, "Yes, yes, yes!" She ran to the kitchen and grabbed the spoon. She helped her mom mix the flour, the eggs, the sugar, and the chocolate. She licked the spoon and said, "Mmm, good!"
+
+Her mom poured the batter into a pan and put it in the oven. She said, "Now we have to wait for it to bake. Then we can decorate it with frosting and sprinkles. Do you want to help me with that too?"
+
+Jenny said, "Yes, yes, yes!" She was excited to surprise her dad with the cake. She did not know that her dad had a surprise for her too. He had bought her a new book with stories and pictures. He had hidden it under the couch. He was going to give it to her after they sang happy birthday and ate the cake. He knew she loved to read and learn new words. He was proud of his little girl.
+Tom liked to whistle. He whistled all the time. He whistled when he woke up, when he ate, when he played, and when he went to bed. He whistled so much that his mom and dad got mad. They told him to stop whistling so loud. They said it hurt their ears and made their heads hurt. But Tom did not listen. He whistled even more.
+
+One day, Tom went to the zoo with his mom and dad. He saw many animals. He saw lions, monkeys, elephants, and giraffes. He whistled at them. He thought they liked his whistling. But they did not. They roared, screeched, trumpeted, and snorted. They told him to go away. But Tom did not listen. He whistled even more.
+
+Then he saw a small penguin. He liked the small penguin. He thought it was cute and funny. He whistled at it. He thought it would whistle back. But it did not. It did not like his whistling. It got angry. It pecked his nose. It bit his finger. It scratched his face. It made him cry. Tom ran away. He did not whistle anymore. He learned his lesson. He learned that whistling is not always good. He learned that some animals do not like whistling. He learned that whistling can make him hurt. He was sad. He had a bad day. The end.
+Mia liked to watch the birds in the park. She saw them fly and sing and hop on the grass. She wished she had a bird of her own. One day, she saw a birdcage in a shop window. It was big and shiny and had a swing inside. Mia thought it would be a nice home for a bird.
+
+She asked her mom if she could buy the birdcage. Her mom said no. She said birds are not happy in cages. They need to be free and have friends. Mia was sad. She wanted a bird so much.
+
+The next day, Mia went to the park again. She saw a little bird on a branch. It was blue and yellow and had a red crest. It looked at Mia with its bright eyes. Mia smiled and said hello. The bird said hello back. Mia was surprised. She had never heard a bird talk before.
+
+"Who are you?" Mia asked.
+
+"I'm Lila. I'm a parrot. I can talk and learn words," the bird said.
+
+"Wow, you're amazing. Do you want to be my friend?" Mia asked.
+
+"Sure, I like you. You're kind and gentle. But I can't go with you. I have to stay here with my family and the other birds," Lila said.
+
+Mia felt a pang in her heart. She wanted Lila to come with her. She thought about the birdcage in the shop. She wondered if Lila would like it. She decided to ask.
+
+"Lila, I have a question. Would you like to live in a birdcage with me? It's big and shiny and has a swing inside. You can talk to me all the time and I'll feed you and play with you," Mia said.
+
+Lila shook her head. She looked sad.
+
+"No, Mia. I don't want to live in a birdcage. It's gloomy and lonely. I can't fly and sing and hop in a birdcage. I can't see the sun and the clouds and the flowers. I can't be with my family and the other birds. I love you, Mia, but I love my freedom more. Please don't take me away from here," Lila said.
+
+Mia understood. She felt sorry for Lila. She hugged her and said goodbye.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lila. I didn't mean to make you sad. I love you too. You're right. You belong here. You're a beautiful and smart bird. I'll come and visit you sometimes. Maybe you can teach me some words," Mia said.
+
+Lila smiled and nodded. She thanked Mia and said goodbye. She flew away to join her family and the other birds. Mia watched her go. She felt a little sad, but also happy. She had made a new friend. She had learned something new. She had decided to let Lila be free. She knew it was the best thing to do.
+Lily and Max were playing in the living room. Lily had a book that she liked very much. It had pictures of animals and their names. Max wanted to see the book too, but Lily did not want to share.
+
+"Give me the book, Lily!" Max said. "I want to look at the animals!"
+
+"No, Max, this is my book!" Lily said. "You have your own toys!"
+
+Max tried to grab the book from Lily, but Lily held it tight. They both pulled and tugged, making a lot of noise.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom said, coming into the room. "What are you doing?"
+
+"Lily is being bossy!" Max said. "She won't let me see her book!"
+
+"Lily, you have to share your book with your brother," Mom said. "It's not nice to be bossy."
+
+"But Mom, I love this book!" Lily said. "It's my favorite!"
+
+"I know, Lily, but sharing is caring," Mom said. "How about you take turns looking at the book? You can each have five minutes, and then you switch. OK?"
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other. They did not like the idea of waiting, but they knew Mom was right. They nodded and said, "OK, Mom."
+
+Mom smiled and gave them a hug. She set a timer for five minutes and handed the book to Lily. "Here you go, Lily. You can start. But remember, when the timer beeps, you have to surrender the book to Max. And Max, you have to wait patiently for your turn. OK?"
+
+"OK, Mom," Lily and Max said. They sat on the couch and started to look at the book. Lily showed Max the animals and their names. Max pointed at the ones he liked and made their sounds. They had fun and learned new things. They forgot to fight and be bossy. They shared and cared. Mom was proud of them.
+Tom is a small boy who likes to walk. He walks to the park with his mom and dad. He walks to the store with his grandma. He walks to the school with his big sister. He walks a lot.
+
+But sometimes, Tom is too tired to walk. He falls asleep in his bed. He has a dream. In his dream, he can walk anywhere he wants. He can walk to the moon. He can walk to the jungle. He can walk to the castle. He can walk with lions and dragons and fairies. He is happy.

+Anna liked to play with her plastic toys. She had many plastic toys, like cars, animals, dolls and blocks. She kept them in a big box in her room. She was very organized. She always put her toys back in the box when she was done playing.
+
+One day, Anna's mom said, "Anna, it's time to wash your plastic toys. They are very dirty. You can use the sink and some soap. I will help you."
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I like to wash my plastic toys. They will be shiny and clean."
+
+Anna and her mom took the box of plastic toys to the bathroom. They filled the sink with warm water and added some soap. Anna picked up a plastic car and dipped it in the water. She rubbed it with her hands and said, "Look, mom. The car is washing."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Good job, Anna. You are very careful. Can you wash the plastic animal next?"
+
+Anna said, "Yes, mom. I can wash the plastic animal. It is a lion. It has a mane and a tail. It is yellow and brown."
+
+Anna washed the plastic lion and then the plastic doll and then the plastic blocks. She had fun washing her plastic toys. She rinsed them with clean water and dried them with a towel. She put them back in the box and said, "Thank you, mom. My plastic toys are very clean. I love them."

+Sara and Ben loved to play in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and the bugs. One day, they saw a new flower. It was red and had a black spot in the middle. It was a poppy.
+
+"What is this?" Sara asked.
+
+"It is a poppy," Ben said. "It is very pretty."
+
+"Can we pick it?" Sara asked.
+
+"No, we can't," Ben said. "The poppy needs the stem and the leaves to live. If we pick it, it will die."
+
+Sara was sad. She wanted to have the poppy. She thought it was very special. She did not listen to Ben. She pulled the poppy from the ground. She held it in her hand.
+
+"Look, I have the poppy!" Sara said.
+
+Ben was angry. He saw the poppy was wilting. He saw the stem and the leaves were broken. He saw the dirt on the ground.
+
+"You are mean, Sara!" Ben said. "You hurt the poppy. You did not support it. You did not care about it. You only cared about yourself."
+
+Sara felt bad. She saw the poppy was dying. She saw Ben was right. She did not support the poppy. She did not care about it. She only cared about herself.
+
+"I am sorry, Ben," Sara said. "I was wrong. I should have listened to you. I should have supported the poppy. I should have cared about it. I should have left it in the ground."
+
+Ben saw Sara was sorry. He forgave her. He hugged her.
+
+"It is okay, Sara," Ben said. "We all make mistakes. We can learn from them. We can be better. We can support each other. We can care about each other. We can care about the garden."
+
+Sara and Ben learned a lesson. They learned to support the poppy and the other flowers. They learned to support each other and the other animals. They learned to support the garden and the earth. They learned to be kind and respectful. They learned to love the mysterious and beautiful poppy.
+Lily and Ben love ice cream. They like different kinds. Lily likes chocolate ice cream. Ben likes vanilla ice cream. They have their own opinions.

+But it is a hot day. The sun is bright and warm. The ice cream starts to melt. It drips from the cones. It makes their hands sticky. Lily and Ben are sad. They don't like melted ice cream.
+
+Mom sees them and says, "Don't worry, my sweeties. I have a solution. Let's go to that bench and share our ice cream. You can try each other's kind and see if you like it. Maybe you will change your opinions."
+
+Lily and Ben agree. They go to the bench and swap their cones. They take a bite of the other's ice cream. Lily says, "Wow, vanilla is good, too!" Ben says, "Wow, chocolate is good, too!"

+
+One day, Lily was playing with Fluffy in the cabinet when her brother Max came in. Max was older and bigger than Lily. He saw Fluffy and wanted to play with it too. He said, "Give me the cat, Lily. It's my turn."
+
+Lily said, "No, Max. Fluffy is mine. Go away." She held Fluffy tight and closed the cabinet door.
+
+Max was angry. He did not like to share. He tried to open the cabinet, but Lily pushed it back. They both pulled and pushed the cabinet door. They made a lot of noise.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw Lily and Max fighting over the cabinet. She said, "Stop it, both of you. What are you doing?"
+
+Lily and Max stopped and looked at Mom. They both said, "We want Fluffy."
+
+Mom said, "Fluffy is Lily's toy. She can choose who to play with. Max, you have your own toys. You can't grab Fluffy from Lily. That's not nice."
+
+Max felt sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I just wanted to play with Fluffy. Can I play with you?"
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Okay, Max. You can play with me. But you have to be gentle with Fluffy. He's my best friend."
+
+Max nodded. He said, "Okay, Lily. I'll be gentle. He's a nice cat."

+Lily opened the cabinet and gave Fluffy to Max. They hugged and played with Fluffy together. Mom was happy. She said, "That's better. Now you are sharing and being kind. Good job, Lily and Max."
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play together. One day, they went to the port to see the big boats. They saw many boats with different colors and shapes. They wanted to go closer and skip on the dock.

+They skipped on the dock and looked at the boats. They were happy and curious.
+
+But then, a man came and shouted at them. He was the port guard. He was troubled because he had to keep the port safe. He did not like children skipping on the dock. He thought they could fall into the water or hurt the boats.
+
+"Hey, you two, get off the dock! This is not a place for playing. Go away!" he said.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared and sad. They did not want to make the man angry. They did not want to leave the port. They liked the boats.
+
+"Please, sir, we are sorry. We just want to see the boats. We will not touch them or skip anymore. Can we stay a little longer?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, you cannot. This is a port, not a park. You have to go now. If you don't, I will call your parents. Go!" he said.
+
+Lily and Tom had no choice. They left the port and walked away. They felt bad and wished they could see the boats again. They hoped the man would be nicer next time. They still wanted to be friends with the boats.
+Lily and Max are twins. They like to play in the garden. One day, they find a big crystal in the grass. It is shiny and pretty.

+
+"But it is a magic crystal!" Lily says.
+
+"Is it?" Mama asks. "How do you know?"
+
+Lily and Max do not know. They just think it is.
+
+Mama smiles. She has an idea.
+
+"Let me show you something," Mama says. She takes the crystal and the twins to the porch. She puts the crystal on a table. She tells the twins to watch.
+
+The sun shines on the crystal. The crystal makes many colors on the wall. The colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. They are bright and beautiful.
+
+Lily and Max are amazed. They clap their hands.
+
+"Wow, it is a rainbow!" Lily says.
+
+"It is a magic crystal!" Max says.
+
+They look at Mama. Mama nods.
+
+"Yes, it is a magic crystal," Mama says. "But it is also a fair crystal. It makes the rainbow for everyone to see. It does not belong to anyone. It belongs to the sun and the earth. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Max nod. They understand.
+
+"Can we watch the rainbow some more?" Lily asks.
+
+"Of course," Mama says. "But you have to watch together. And you have to be kind and gentle with the crystal. Can you do that?"

+Lily and Max nod. They hug each other. They say sorry. They watch the rainbow with Mama. They are happy.

+
+Tim and Mia felt bad for what they did. They realized that they should not have gone into the jeep without asking. They learned that it was wrong to touch other people's things without permission.

+
+"Let's go and say hello to the owl," Tom said.
+

+
+They walked slowly to the tree. The owl looked at them and made a loud sound. "Hoo-hoo!"
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They ran away from the tree. But the owl flew after them. The owl was angry. The owl had a magic power. The owl could make things shrink.

+Ben and Lily tell their mom what happened. They say, "We saw a big blue car. We wanted to play in the car. But the car had a lock. We could not open the lock. Then a man came. He had a key. He was angry. He told us to go away. He was mean."
+
+Their mom hugs them. She says, "I'm sorry. You should not touch other people's cars. They are not toys. They are for driving. The man was not mean. He was worried. He thought you might break his car. He did not know you were just curious. Next time, if you see a car, you can look at it, but do not touch it. And if you see a person, you can say hello, but do not call them names. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben and Lily nod. They say, "We understand. We are sorry. We will not touch other people's cars. We will not call them names. We will be nice."
+
+Their mom smiles. She says, "That's good. I love you. Now, do you want to play some more in the park?"
+
+Ben and Lily say, "Yes, please!" They go back to the slide, the swing and the run. They have fun. They are happy.
+Sara was very tired. She had played all day with her toys and her dog. She yawned and rubbed her eyes. She wanted to go to bed and have a nice dream.
+
+She hugged her mom and dad and said good night. They kissed her and tucked her in. They gave her a soft teddy bear to cuddle. They said they loved her with all their heart.
+
+But Sara could not sleep. She heard a loud noise outside. It was a harsh noise, like a big truck or a plane. It scared her and made her cry. She wanted her mom and dad to come back.
+
+She called for them, but they did not hear her. The noise was too loud. She felt alone and sad. She hugged her teddy bear and wished the noise would stop.
+
+Then she heard a gentle voice. It was her dog, Spot. He had heard her cry and came to her room. He jumped on her bed and licked her face. He wagged his tail and snuggled with her. He made a soft noise, like a purr.
+
+Sara smiled and petted him. She felt safe and happy. She said thank you to Spot and told him he was a good dog. He was her best friend. He loved her with all his heart.
+
+She yawned again and closed her eyes. She fell asleep with Spot by her side. The noise outside did not bother her anymore. She had a nice dream.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their new toy cars. They liked to zoom them on the floor and make loud noises. Lily had a red car and Ben had a blue car. They were having fun.
+
+But then Ben saw something shiny on the floor. It was a penny. He wanted to have it. He grabbed it and put it in his pocket. Lily saw him and got angry. She said, "That's my penny! Give it back!"
+
+Ben said, "No, it's mine! I found it!" He stuck out his tongue at Lily. Lily got even more angry. She ran to Ben and tried to take the penny from his pocket. Ben pushed her away. Lily slapped him on the face. Ben slapped her back. They started to cry.
+
+Mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them slapping and crying. She said, "Stop that! What are you doing?" She took the penny from Ben's pocket and looked at it. She said, "This is not a penny. This is a button. It fell off my coat. It's not worth anything. Why are you fighting over it?"
+
+Lily and Ben felt silly. They said, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Ben." They hugged and said, "We are friends." Mom said, "That's good. Now, why don't you share your new toy cars and play nicely?" Lily and Ben nodded and smiled. They went back to playing with their new toy cars. They forgot about the button. They were happy.
+Tim and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toys in their home. Their home was peaceful and warm. They had a mom and a dad who loved them.
+
+One day, Tim and Sam had a fight. Tim wanted to play with Sam's truck, but Sam said no. Tim got angry and grabbed the truck. Sam got angry and pushed Tim. Tim fell down and hit his head on the floor. He cried out loud.
+
+Mom and dad heard the cry and ran to the room. They saw Tim on the floor and Sam with the truck. They were very upset. They scolded Sam and took the truck away. They said Sam was naughty and mean. They said he had to say sorry to Tim and go to his bed.
+
+Sam felt bad. He said sorry to Tim and gave him a hug. He said he loved him and he was sorry. He went to his bed and cried. He felt lonely and sad.
+
+Tim felt better. He said he loved Sam and he was sorry too. He wanted to play with him again. He went to Sam's bed and knocked on the door. He said he wanted to be friends.
+
+But Sam did not answer. He did not open the door. He did not hear Tim. He was asleep. He had a bad dream. He dreamed that Tim and mom and dad did not love him. He dreamed that he had no home. He dreamed that he was alone. He woke up and screamed.
+
+The end.
+Ben and Lily were at the park with their mom. They liked to play on the swings and the slide. They also liked to watch the ducks and the squirrels. Sometimes, they would see a vendor who sold ice cream and balloons. He was a nice man who always smiled and said hello.
+
+One day, Ben saw the vendor coming with his cart. He ran to his mom and asked, "Mom, can I have a balloon, please?" Mom nodded and gave him some money. Ben went to the vendor and looked at all the balloons. There were many colors and shapes. He chose a small blue balloon that looked like a fish. He thanked the vendor and tied the balloon to his wrist.
+
+Lily also wanted a balloon. She followed Ben and asked, "Mom, can I have a balloon, too?" Mom nodded and gave her some money. Lily went to the vendor and looked at all the balloons. She chose a small pink balloon that looked like a heart. She thanked the vendor and tied the balloon to her wrist.
+
+Ben and Lily were very happy with their balloons. They ran back to the swings and the slide. They showed their balloons to their friends. They played and laughed and had fun. They did not remember to hold their balloons tightly.
+
+The wind was strong that day. It blew and blew and blew. It lifted Ben's balloon and Lily's balloon into the air. Ben and Lily saw their balloons fly away. They cried and cried and cried. They ran to their mom and hugged her. Mom hugged them back and said, "I'm sorry, my loves. The wind took your balloons. But don't be sad. You can always remember how happy you were with them. And maybe the vendor will come back another day. He might have more balloons for you."
+
+Ben and Lily sniffed and nodded. They wiped their tears and smiled. They still had their mom and each other. They still had the park and the swings and the slide. They still had the ducks and the squirrels. And they still had their memories of their small balloons.
+Lily likes to read books. She has many books in her room. She puts them on her bookcase. She likes to look at the pictures and the words.
+
+One day, Lily wants to read a new book. She sees a big book on the top of the bookcase. She tries to reach it, but it is too high. She gets a chair and climbs on it. She grabs the book, but it is heavy. She loses her balance and falls. The book falls too, and so do many other books. They make a loud noise and a big mess.
+
+Lily is scared and hurt. She cries. Her mom hears the noise and comes to her room. She sees Lily on the floor and the books everywhere. She is worried and angry. She helps Lily get up and hugs her. She asks her what happened. Lily tells her the truth. She says she wanted to read the new book, but she could not reach it. She says she is sorry for making a mess and breaking the bookcase.
+
+Mom is not angry anymore. She is glad that Lily is honest and sorry. She tells her that it is okay to want to read new books, but she should ask for help when they are too high. She tells her that they can fix the bookcase and clean the books together. She tells her that she loves her and that she is proud of her for reading.
+
+Lily feels better. She says she loves her mom too. She says she is sorry again. She helps her mom complete the bookcase and put the books back. She finds the new book and asks her mom to read it with her. Mom says yes. They sit on the bed and read the book. They have fun and learn new things. Lily is happy.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big stick on the ground. Ben picked it up and said, "This is my weapon. I can hit anyone with it." Lila did not like that. She said, "No, Ben. That is not nice. You can hurt someone with that stick. You should put it down."
+
+Ben did not listen. He swung the stick around and pretended to be a superhero. He said, "I am incredible. I can save the world with my weapon." He ran towards a squirrel and tried to hit it. The squirrel was scared and ran away. Ben chased it and laughed.
+
+Lila followed Ben. She saw a butterfly on a flower. She stopped and looked at it. She said, "Wow, this is incredible. Look at the colors and the wings. It is so pretty." She leaned closer and examined the butterfly. She saw the patterns and the details. She smiled and said, "Hello, butterfly. You are amazing."
+
+The butterfly flew away and landed on Lila's hand. Lila was happy and gentle. She said, "Thank you, butterfly. You are my friend." She watched the butterfly for a while and then let it go.
+
+Ben came back. He was tired and bored. He said, "Lila, where were you? I was looking for you. Let's play with my weapon." He held up the stick. Lila shook her head. She said, "No, Ben. I don't want to play with your weapon. It is not fun. It is mean. You should find something else to play with. Something that is not a weapon. Something that is incredible. Like the butterfly."
+
+Ben looked at Lila. He saw her happy face and her kind eyes. He felt sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, Lila. You are right. My weapon is not incredible. It is bad. I don't want to hurt anyone. I want to be your friend. Can you show me the butterfly?"
+
+Lila nodded. She said, "Of course, Ben. Come with me. I will show you the butterfly. And maybe we can find other incredible things to examine. Like the flowers and the birds and the clouds. They are all incredible. And so are you."
+
+Ben smiled. He said, "Thank you, Lila. You are incredible too. And so is the butterfly. Let's go and see it." He dropped the stick and took Lila's hand. They walked together and looked for the butterfly. They learned to appreciate the beauty and the wonder of nature. They had fun and they were kind. They were incredible.
+Anna liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wore a pink apron with flowers on it. Mom wore a blue apron with dots on it. They made cookies with flour, sugar, butter, and chocolate chips. Anna mixed the dough with a big spoon. Mom put the dough on a tray and put it in the oven.
+
+Anna smelled the cookies. They smelled yummy. She wanted to eat one. She asked mom if she could have a cookie. Mom said, "Not yet, Anna. The cookies are very hot. You have to wait until they cool down."
+
+Anna waited and waited. She looked at the oven. She saw the cookies through the glass. They looked so good. She wondered how they tasted. She thought, maybe they are not so hot anymore. Maybe she could have just one. She dared to open the oven door.
+
+But as soon as she opened the oven door, a blast of warm air hit her face. It was too warm. It made her eyes water and her nose tickle. She coughed and sneezed. She closed the oven door quickly. She felt sorry for being naughty. She ran to mom and hugged her.
+
+Mom hugged her back and said, "Are you okay, Anna? What did you do?" Anna told mom what she did. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted a cookie. I dared to open the oven. But it was too warm. It hurt my face." Mom said, "It's okay, Anna. I'm glad you are not hurt. But you have to be careful. The oven is very hot. You have to wait until I say it's safe. Then we can have cookies together. Okay?" Anna said, "Okay, mom. I love you." Mom said, "I love you too, Anna. Now let's wash our hands and get ready for the cookies." Anna smiled and said, "Yes, mom. Thank you." They washed their hands and took off their aprons. They waited for the cookies to cool down. Then they enjoyed the warm and delicious cookies. Anna was happy. She learned her lesson. She never dared to open the oven again.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their blocks. They liked to number them and make towers. Lily had ten blocks and Ben had nine. Lily said, "I have more blocks than you. I win!"
+
+Ben felt sad. He wanted to have more blocks too. He looked around and saw a big block on the shelf. He got up and reached for it. But the block was too high and too heavy. It fell down and made a loud noise.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" a voice said. It was Mom. She looked angry. "You made a mess and you could have hurt yourself. Go to your room now!"
+
+Ben started to cry. He did not want to go to his room. He wanted to play with Lily and the blocks. He said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I just wanted one more block."
+
+Mom sighed. She picked up Ben and hugged him. She said, "I know, Ben. But you have to be careful and share with your sister. You can play with the blocks later, after you calm down. Come on, let's go to your room."
+
+She took Ben to his room and put him on his bed. She gave him a kiss and said, "I love you, Ben. I'll be back soon." She closed the door and left.
+
+Ben felt gloomy. He did not like his room. It was dark and boring. He wished he could play with Lily and the blocks. He wondered if she was still angry with him. He hoped she would forgive him. He lay down and closed his eyes. He tried to think of happy things. He thought of his mom, his dad, his dog, and his blocks. He counted them in his head. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. He smiled. He felt a little better. He fell asleep.
+Anna and Ben like to play in the park. They see a big pile of sticks and stones. They want to build something with them.
+
+"What do you want to build?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"Let's build a house for the pigeons!" Ben says. He likes the pigeons that fly around the park. He thinks they are pretty and friendly.
+
+"Okay, that sounds fun!" Anna says. She likes to build things with Ben. He is her best friend and he is honest. He always tells the truth and shares his toys.
+

+
+"It looks great!" Anna says. She is happy with their work.
+
+They see a pigeon land on the roof of their house. It looks at them and coos.
+
+"Hello, pigeon!" Anna and Ben say. They wave at the pigeon.
+
+The pigeon flies down and goes inside the house. It pecks at the food and drinks the water. It coos again.
+
+"Thank you, pigeon!" Anna and Ben say. They smile at the pigeon.
+
+The pigeon smiles back. It likes Anna and Ben. They are kind and generous. It decides to stay in their house.
+
+Anna and Ben are glad. They have a new friend. They play with the pigeon and the house. They have a lot of fun.
+Lily and her mom were going to the airport. They wanted to see Lily's dad, who worked far away. Lily was very happy and excited. She packed her bag with her favorite toys and books.
+
+On the way to the airport, Lily saw many flowers by the road. They were pink and yellow and purple. They smelled sweet and pretty. Lily liked flowers very much. She asked her mom, "Mom, why do flowers bloom?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Flowers bloom because they want to show their colors and beauty to the world. They also want to make bees and butterflies happy. Bees and butterflies help flowers make more flowers. It's a wonderful cycle of life."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I want to be like a flower. I want to bloom and show my colors and beauty to the world. I also want to make people happy."
+
+Mom hugged Lily and said, "You are like a flower, my dear. You are blooming every day. You are colorful and beautiful and you make me and dad very happy. We are proud of you."
+
+They reached the airport and parked the car. They got out and walked to the terminal. Lily saw many planes in the sky. They were big and shiny and noisy. Lily was amazed and curious. She asked her mom, "Mom, how do planes fly?"
+
+Mom said, "Planes fly because they have wings and engines. Wings help planes lift up and stay in the air. Engines help planes move fast and far. Planes can fly to many places and carry many people and things. It's a wonderful invention of humans."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I want to be like a plane. I want to fly and see many places and carry many people and things. I also want to learn more about humans."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You are like a plane, my sweet. You are flying every day. You are fast and far and you carry many dreams and hopes. You are curious and smart and you learn more about humans every day. We are happy for you."
+
+They entered the terminal and looked for the gate. They saw many people and signs and screens. Lily was alert and interested. She asked her mom, "Mom, what are all these things?"
+
+Mom said, "These are things that help us find our way and check in and board the plane. People work here and help us with our tickets and bags and security. Signs tell us where to go and what to do. Screens show us the time and the flight number and the status. It's a busy and organized place."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I want to be like these things. I want to help and find and check and board. I also want to be busy and organized."
+
+Mom laughed and said, "You are like these things, my love. You are helpful and finding and checking and boarding every day. You are busy and organized and you do things well. We are grateful for you."
+
+They found their gate and waited for their flight. They saw Lily's dad on the screen. He was waving and smiling. He said, "Hi, Lily and mom. I miss you so much. I can't wait to see you and hug you and kiss you. I love you very much."
+
+Lily and mom waved and smiled back. They said, "Hi, dad. We miss you too. We can't wait to see you and hug you and kiss you. We love you very much."
+
+They boarded the plane and took their seats. They buckled their seat belts and listened to the announcements. They looked out the window and saw the runway. The plane started to move and speed up and lift off. Lily felt a thrill and a joy. She said, "Mom, we are flying. We are flying to dad. We are flying to happiness."
+
+Mom said, "Yes, we are flying. We are flying to dad. We are flying to happiness. And we are flying with love."
+
+They held hands and smiled. They were like flowers, planes, and things. They were blooming, flying, and helping. They were colorful, fast, and organized. They were happy, curious, and alert. They were a family. And they loved each other very much.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play sport. They both loved to run and jump and throw balls. Sometimes they played with other kids, and sometimes they played by themselves. They always had fun and shared their toys.
+
+One day, a new kid came to their school. His name was Max. He had many shiny and fancy toys. He had a big bike, a new ball, and a watch that could talk. He said he was very wealthy and that his toys were better than anyone else's. He did not want to play with Lily and Tom. He said they were poor and boring.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and angry. They wanted to show Max that they were not poor and boring. They wanted to show him that they could play sport better than him. They challenged him to a race. Max agreed, but he said he would use his bike and they would have to run. He said he would win easily.
+
+The race started. Max zoomed ahead on his bike. He laughed and said he was the fastest. Lily and Tom ran as hard as they could. They did not give up. They believed in themselves and in each other. They cheered each other on. They got closer and closer to Max.
+
+Then, something happened. Max's bike hit a rock and he fell off. He hurt his knee and his bike broke. He cried and said he wanted his mom. Lily and Tom stopped running. They felt sorry for Max. They went to help him. They gave him a band-aid and a hug. They said they were sorry for his bike and his knee. They said they wanted to be his friends.
+
+Max was surprised. He did not expect Lily and Tom to be nice to him. He realized he had been mean and rude to them. He felt ashamed and sorry. He said he was sorry for being mean and rude. He said he wanted to be their friends too. He said he did not need his shiny and fancy toys to have fun. He said he wanted to play sport with them and share his toys.
+
+Lily and Tom smiled and said they were happy. They helped Max get up and walk. They took him to their teacher and then to their playground. They played sport together and had fun. They learned that being wealthy is not about having many things, but about having good friends. They learned that being good at sport is not about being fast or strong, but about being fair and kind. They learned that believing in yourself and in others is the best way to be happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big box and some crayons. They wanted to make a spaceship out of the box. Tom found a helmet in the shed. He put it on his head and said, "I am the captain of the spaceship. I will imagine we are flying to the moon."
+
+Lily said, "I want to be the captain too. Give me the helmet." She tried to grab the helmet from Tom, but he held it tight. They started to tug and pull on the helmet. The helmet was too big for both of them. It fell off and rolled away.
+
+"Oh no, the helmet is gone!" Tom cried. He ran after the helmet. Lily followed him. They saw the helmet near the fence. But there was a problem. A big dog was sniffing the helmet. The dog had sharp teeth and a loud bark. Tom and Lily were scared of the dog.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Tom shouted. He threw a stick at the dog. The dog chased the stick and left the helmet alone. Tom and Lily ran to the helmet and picked it up. They were happy they got the helmet back.
+
+They went back to the box and put the helmet on the box. They said, "This is our spaceship. We will share the helmet and take turns to be the captain. We will imagine we are flying to the moon and see lovely stars and planets." They smiled and hugged each other. They had fun playing in the garden.
+Sam is a dog who likes to dig. He digs in the yard, in the park, and in the woods. One day, he finds a big bone under a tree. He is very happy and wants to show it to his friend Max.
+
+He runs to Max's house with the bone in his mouth. He barks at the door and Max comes out. Max is a cat who likes to nap. He sees the bone and says, "What is that?"
+
+"It is a bone!" Sam says. "I dug it up. It is gray and hard and tasty. Do you want to share it with me?"
+
+Max looks at the bone and says, "No, thank you. I do not like bones. I like fish and milk and cheese. Bones are for dogs, not for cats."
+
+Sam says, "That is okay. I like bones and you like fish. We are different, but we are still friends. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Max says, "Yes, I do. But not with the bone. Let us go to the park and gather some leaves. We can make a pile and jump in it. That is fun for both of us."
+
+Sam says, "That sounds good. Let us go!" He drops the bone and follows Max to the park. They gather some leaves and have a lot of fun. They are happy to be friends.
+Sara and Ben were twins who loved ice-cream. They always asked their mom for ice-cream after dinner. One day, mom said they could have ice-cream, but only if they helped her with the dishes. Sara and Ben agreed and ran to the kitchen.
+
+They washed and dried the plates and cups, but they were not very careful. They made a lot of noise and splashed water everywhere. Mom was not happy. She told them to be quiet and graceful, like a swan. She said a swan was a big white bird that moved smoothly on the water. Sara and Ben did not know what a swan was. They asked mom to explain.
+
+Mom said she would show them a picture of a swan in a book. She went to the living room to get the book. Sara and Ben followed her. They were excited to see the swan. But when they got to the living room, they saw something else. On the table, there was a big bowl of ice-cream. It looked so yummy and cold. Sara and Ben forgot about the swan. They ran to the table and grabbed two spoons.
+
+They were about to eat the ice-cream, when they heard mom's voice. She was angry. She said they were naughty and greedy. She said they did not deserve the ice-cream. She said the ice-cream was for her and dad, who were coming home soon. She said she had bought another ice-cream for them, but she hid it in the freezer. She said they had to wait until after dinner to have it. She said they had to learn to be patient and graceful, like a swan.
+
+Sara and Ben felt sorry and ashamed. They put the spoons down and said they were sorry. They asked mom to forgive them. Mom said she loved them, but they had to be more careful and respectful. She said she would still give them ice-cream, but only a little bit. She said they had to share it and say thank you. She said they had to look at the picture of the swan and learn from it. Sara and Ben nodded and hugged mom. They said they would try to be more like a swan. They said they loved mom too. They said they still wanted to see the swan. Mom smiled and opened the book. She showed them the graceful swan. Sara and Ben looked at it and said it was beautiful. They said they wanted to be beautiful too. Mom said they already were, but they could be even more beautiful if they were graceful. Sara and Ben agreed and asked mom to explain more about the swan. Mom said she would, after they had their ice-cream. She took them to the kitchen and gave them each a small scoop of ice-cream. They said thank you and ate it slowly and happily. They said it was the best ice-cream ever. They said they were happy. Mom said she was happy too. She said they were her sweet and graceful swans.
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they found a big lollipop on the ground. It was red and shiny and smelled sweet.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. "Can we share it?"
+
+Ben nodded. He wanted to taste the lollipop too. But he also had a naughty idea. He saw a big dog near a tree. The dog was sleeping and looked quiet.
+
+"Hey, Lily, I have a game," Ben said. "Let's throw the lollipop to the dog and see what he does."
+
+Lily frowned. She did not like Ben's game. She wanted to eat the lollipop with him. She thought it was mean to throw it to the dog.
+
+"No, Ben, that's not nice," Lily said. "The dog might get sick or angry. And we will lose the lollipop. Let's just break it in half and enjoy it."
+
+Ben shook his head. He did not listen to Lily. He grabbed the lollipop and threw it as hard as he could. The lollipop flew in the air and landed near the dog's nose.
+
+The dog woke up with a start. He saw the lollipop and sniffed it. He did not like the smell. He growled and barked. He was not quiet anymore. He was very loud and scary.
+
+Lily and Ben were afraid. They ran away from the dog. They did not have the lollipop anymore. They were sad and sorry.
+
+They learned a lesson. They should not throw things to animals. They should be kind and share. They should listen to each other. They should not be naughty.
+Tim and Jen are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big box of old toys in the attic. They are very happy.
+
+They see a truck, a doll, a ball, a drum and a book. Tim wants the truck. Jen wants the doll. They grab the toys and run to their rooms.
+
+But soon, they feel sad. They miss each other. They want to play together. They think of a way to share.
+
+They go back to the attic. They swap the truck and the doll. They also take the ball, the drum and the book. They say sorry and hug.

+One day, a little girl named Lily wanted to play hide and seek with her big brother Tom. She ran around the house, looking for a good place to hide. She saw a door that was a little open. She pushed it and went inside. It was a dark and dusty chamber, full of old things. Lily thought it was a good hiding spot.
+
+She walked around the chamber, looking for a corner to curl up in. She saw a big chest with a lock on it. She wondered what was inside. She tried to open it, but it was too heavy. She pulled and pulled, but it did not move. She stumbled and fell on the floor. She hurt her knee and started to cry.
+
+Tom heard her cry and ran to the door. He opened it and saw Lily on the floor. He ran to her and picked her up. He asked her what happened. Lily pointed to the chest and said she wanted to see what was inside. Tom looked at the chest and saw a key hanging on the wall. He took the key and opened the chest. Inside, there were only some old books and toys. He showed them to Lily and said they were harmless. Lily stopped crying and smiled. She liked the books and toys. She asked Tom if they could play with them. Tom nodded and said yes. They sat on the floor and played with the old things. They forgot about hide and seek and had fun in the chamber.
+Sara liked to swing on the porch with her mom. They would go back and forth, back and forth, and sing songs. Sara felt happy and safe on the swing.
+
+One day, a big boy came to the porch. He had a mean face and a loud voice. He said, "Move, I want to swing!" He pushed Sara and her mom off the swing. He sat on the swing and swung by himself. He did not sing songs. He made noises like a monster.
+
+Sara and her mom were sad and scared. They went inside the house and closed the door. Sara said, "That boy was rude. He did not share. He did not say sorry. He hurt us." Her mom said, "You are right, Sara. He was rude. He did not know how to be nice. Maybe he was lonely or angry. But that is not an excuse. We should always be kind and polite."
+
+Sara and her mom hugged each other. They waited until the boy left. Then they went back to the porch and swung again. They sang songs and smiled. Sara said, "I like to swing with you, mom.

+Sara was sad. She wanted all the things. She cried and cried. She did not want to leave the mall. She tried to resist her mom. She pulled and kicked and screamed.
+
+"Stop, Sara, stop! You are being very naughty. You have to listen to me. We have to go home now," her mom said.
+
+Sara did not stop. She made a big fuss. She did not care what her mom said. She wanted to stay at the mall.
+
+Then, Sara saw a man. He was very charming. He had a big smile and a funny hat. He was making balloons for the kids. He made a dog, a flower, a sword, and a heart. He saw Sara and her mom. He came to them.
+
+"Hello, little girl. What is your name?" he said.
+
+"Sara," Sara said.
+
+"Hello, Sara. Do you like balloons?" he said.
+
+"Yes, I do," Sara said.
+
+"Would you like one?" he said.
+
+"Yes, please," Sara said.
+
+"What shape do you want?" he said.
+
+"A cat," Sara said.
+
+"Okay, a cat. Here you go," he said. He made a cat balloon for Sara. He gave it to her.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Sara said. She hugged the balloon. She was very happy. She forgot about the bear, the dress, the bike, and the cake. She smiled and laughed.
+
+"You're welcome, Sara. You're very charming. Have a nice day," he said.
+
+"Thank you, sir. You're very nice. Have a nice day, too," Sara said.
+
+Sara's mom was relieved. She thanked the man, too. She took Sara's hand. She said, "Let's go home, Sara. You have a new friend. You can play with your balloon at home."
+
+"Okay, mom. Let's go home. I love my balloon. I love you, too," Sara said.
+
+They left the mall. They were both happy. Sara did not resist her mom anymore. She learned a lesson. She learned that she could not have everything she wanted. She learned that she had to be grateful for what she had. She learned that sometimes a simple thing could make her happy. She learned that being charming was better than being naughty.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their stamps. They liked to make pictures with them on paper. They had many stamps of animals, flowers and stars. They had fun making different scenes.
+
+But then, Lily had an idea. She wanted to see how the stamps looked on the wall. She took a stamp of a lion and pressed it on the white wall. She saw a brown lion on the wall. She smiled. She took another stamp of a bird and pressed it on the wall. She saw a blue bird on the wall. She giggled.
+
+Ben saw what Lily was doing. He was shocked. He knew that Mom and Dad would be angry if they saw the wall. He said to Lily, "No, Lily, no! You can't stamp on the wall! That is bad! Mom and Dad will be mad!"
+
+Lily did not listen to Ben. She thought it was fun to stamp on the wall. She took more stamps and pressed them on the wall. She made a big mess.
+
+Soon, Mom and Dad came home. They saw the wall. They were very angry. They said to Lily and Ben, "What did you do? Why did you stamp on the wall? That is naughty! You have to clean the wall now!"
+
+Lily and Ben felt ashamed. They knew they did something wrong. They said sorry to Mom and Dad. They took a cloth and some water and tried to clean the wall. But the stamps were hard to remove. They had to scrub and scrub. It took a long time.
+
+Mom and Dad helped them to clean the wall. They said to Lily and Ben, "Next time, you have to be careful with your stamps. You can only stamp on paper. You can't stamp on the wall. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They said, "Yes, Mom and Dad. We understand. We won't stamp on the wall again. We are sorry."
+
+Mom and Dad hugged them. They said, "We love you, Lily and Ben. But you have to learn to respect the house. The house is not a toy. It is our home."
+
+Lily and Ben said, "We love you, Mom and Dad. We will respect the house. We will be good."
+Tommy loves to gaze at the stars with his mother. Every night, they go outside and sit on a big blanket. Mother points at the bright dots in the sky and tells Tommy their names. She says they are very far away, but they can still see them.
+
+Tommy asks his mother why the stars are there. Mother says they are like big balls of fire that make light. She says some stars are very important, because they help people find their way. She shows Tommy the big star that is always in the north. She says it is called the North Star.
+
+Tommy thinks the North Star is very pretty. He wonders if he can touch it. He asks his mother if they can go to the North Star someday. Mother smiles and hugs Tommy. She says they can't go to the North Star, because it is too high and too hot. But she says they can always gaze at it and make a wish. She says the North Star is like a friend that is always there for them. Tommy likes that idea. He gazes at the North Star and makes a wish. He wishes that he and his mother can always be happy and together.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Olive. Olive had brown hair and green eyes, like Anna. Olive wore a pink dress and a hat. Anna thought Olive was very intelligent, because she could talk to her.
+
+One day, Anna's aunt came to visit. She brought a big box for Anna. Anna was happy and curious. She opened the box and saw a new doll. The doll had blonde hair and blue eyes. She wore a purple dress and a necklace. Anna's aunt said, "This is Lily. She is a special doll. She can sing and dance. Do you like her?"
+
+Anna looked at Lily and then at Olive. She felt confused. She liked Lily, but she loved Olive. She did not want to hurt Olive's feelings. She said, "Thank you, auntie. Lily is very pretty. But I already have Olive. She is my best friend. She is very intelligent. She can talk to me."
+
+Anna's aunt smiled and said, "I understand, Anna. You are very kind and loyal. You don't have to keep Lily if you don't want to. Maybe you can send her to someone else who needs a friend. Do you know anyone who would like Lily?"
+
+Anna thought for a moment. She remembered her cousin Ben, who lived far away. Ben did not have many toys, because his family was poor. Ben liked to sing and dance, too. Anna said, "I know. I can send Lily to Ben. He will be happy to have her. He will take good care of her. Can we do that, auntie?"
+
+Anna's aunt nodded and said, "Of course, Anna. That is a very generous and thoughtful idea. I'm sure Ben will love Lily. And Olive will be happy to stay with you. You are a very smart and sweet girl, Anna. I'm proud of you."
+
+Anna hugged her aunt and said, "Thank you, auntie. You are very nice and fun. I love you."
+
+Anna's aunt hugged her back and said, "I love you, too, Anna. And I love Olive and Lily. They are lucky to have you as a friend."
+Lily and Ben were playing on the porch with their toy guns. They liked to pretend they were cowboys and robbers. Lily wore a hat and a badge. Ben wore a mask and a scarf.
+
+"Stop, robber! You are bad!" Lily shouted, pointing her gun at Ben.
+
+"No, I am not! You are bad, cowboy!" Ben shouted back, shooting his gun at Lily.
+
+They ran around the porch, shooting and dodging. They laughed and had fun.
+
+Mom came out of the house with a tray of snacks. She smiled and said, "Time for a break, kids. Come and have some healthy food. You need energy to play."
+
+Lily and Ben put down their guns and ran to Mom. They hugged her and said, "Thank you, Mom. We love you."
+
+They sat on the porch and ate some apples, cheese and crackers. They drank some water and milk. They felt good and happy.

+Mom said, "You are such good kids. I am proud of you. You can play some more after you finish your snacks."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "Okay, Mom. We will."
+
+They finished their snacks and picked up their guns. They looked at each other and smiled.
+
+"Ready, cowboy?" Ben asked.
+
+"Ready, robber?" Lily asked.
+
+They nodded and said, "Let's go!"

+They ran off the porch and continued their game. They were healthy and playful. They were friends.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play in the park. But today they disagree. Tom wants to play on the slide. Anna wants to play on the swings.
+
+"I want to slide!" Tom says.
+
+"No, I want to swing!" Anna says.
+
+They are both angry. They do not share. They do not have fun.
+
+Then they see a big gray dog. The dog is lost. It has a tag on its collar. The tag has a phone number. Tom and Anna want to help the dog.
+
+"Let's call the number!" Tom says.
+
+"OK, let's do that!" Anna says.
+
+They agree. They are not angry anymore. They share. They have fun.

+
+Tom and Anna are happy. They share the candy. They play on the slide and the swings. They are friends. They do not disagree.
+Lily was a modest girl who liked to chew gum. She always shared her gum with her friends and never blew big bubbles. One day, she found a shiny bell in the park. It was red and gold and made a loud sound when she shook it.
+
+She was very happy and ran to show her friends. But on the way, she tripped and fell. Her gum flew out of her mouth and stuck to the bell. She tried to pull it off, but it was too sticky. She was sad and scared. What if the bell was someone's and they got angry?
+
+She heard a voice behind her. It was a boy with a big smile. He said, "Hi, I'm Ben. That's my bell. I lost it yesterday. Thank you for finding it. Do you want to play with me?" Lily nodded and smiled back. She was glad he was not angry. She said, "I'm sorry, I chewed gum and it stuck to your bell. Can I help you clean it?" Ben said, "That's okay, I like gum too. We can clean it together. And then we can share some more gum and make music with the bell."
+
+They became friends and played happily in the park. They chewed gum, shook the bell, and laughed a lot. Lily was not modest anymore. She blew big bubbles and Ben popped them. They had fun and learned to share. They liked each other and the bell.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to pretend that they were superheroes and villains. Lily was Super Lily, who could fly and shoot lasers from her eyes. Max was Evil Max, who could make thunder and lightning with his hands.
+
+"Ha ha ha, I will destroy you, Super Lily!" Max shouted, as he threw a pillow at Lily.
+
+"No, you won't, Evil Max! I will stop you with my lasers!" Lily said, as she dodged the pillow and pointed her fingers at Max.
+
+They were having fun, until they heard a loud boom outside. It was real thunder, and it made them jump.
+
+"Wow, did you hear that?" Lily asked, looking at the window.
+
+"Yes, I did. It's a storm, Lily. It's raining and windy and dark," Max said, feeling scared.
+
+"I don't like storms, Max. They are loud and scary and wet," Lily said, feeling scared too.
+
+They hugged each other and looked for their mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, where are you?" they called.
+
+"I'm here, kids. Don't worry, it's just a storm. It will pass soon," their mom said, as she came from the kitchen. She saw them holding their toys and smiled.
+
+"Are you playing superheroes and villains?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, mom. We are Super Lily and Evil Max," they said.
+
+"That's cute, kids. But you know, you don't have to be afraid of the storm. It's just nature's way of making noise and water. It can't hurt you, if you are inside and safe," their mom said.
+
+"Really, mom? Are you sure?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, Lily. I'm sure. You can believe me, I'm your mom. I love you and I will protect you," their mom said.
+
+"I love you too, mom. And I believe you," Lily said.
+
+"Me too, mom. I love you and I believe you," Max said.
+
+They hugged their mom and felt better. They decided to play superheroes and villains again, but this time, they were on the same team. They used their powers to fight the storm and make it go away. They laughed and had fun, until the storm was over and the sun came out. They were happy and brave, because they had each other and their mom.
+Sara loves to ride the horse at the mall. It is brown and soft and goes up and down. She needs a coin to make it move. She asks her mom for a coin. Her mom gives her one and smiles.
+
+Sara puts the coin in the slot and climbs on the horse. She holds the reins and pretends she is a cowgirl. The horse starts to move and makes a neigh sound. Sara laughs and waves to her mom. She feels happy and brave.
+
+She rides the horse for a long time. She sees other kids and animals at the mall. She sees a dog, a cat, a bird and a fish. She says hello to them. The horse goes faster and slower. Sara likes it when it goes fast.
+
+But soon Sara feels tired. Her arms and legs are sore. Her eyes are heavy. She yawns and rubs them. She wants to rest and cuddle with her mom. She tells the horse to stop. The horse stops and makes a neigh sound. Sara slides off the horse and hugs it. She says thank you and goodbye.
+
+She runs to her mom and gives her a big hug. Her mom hugs her back and kisses her cheek. She says she is proud of her and asks if she had fun. Sara nods and smiles.

+Anna likes to number her toys. She has a lot of toys, but she knows how many she has. She puts them in a line and counts them one by one. She says, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. I have ten toys!"
+
+Her brother Ben comes to play with her. He sees her toys and wants to join. He says, "Can I play with you, Anna? Can I number your toys too?"
+
+Anna is patient with her brother. She says, "Yes, you can play with me, Ben. But you have to wait your turn. I will number my toys first, then you can number them."

+One day, they see a man with a cart. He has many cones with ice cream. Sara and Ben love ice cream. They run to the man and ask for a cone.
+
+"Please, can we have a cone?" they say.
+
+"Sure, but you have to pay me one dollar each," the man says.
+
+Sara and Ben do not have money. They are sad. They look at the cones with ice cream. They want them very much.

+Lily and Tom were going to the park with Mom. They liked to play on the swings and the slide. But Mom said they had to delay. She had to do some work on her laptop.
+
+"Can we go now, Mom?" Lily asked. She was bored.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. I need a few more minutes," Mom said.
+
+Tom saw a bow on the floor. It was red and shiny. He picked it up and put it on his head.
+
+"Look, Lily, I'm a pirate!" he said.

+
+"Hey, stop that! It's mine!" Tom said.
+

+
+"We're sorry, Mom," Tom said.
+
+Mom smiled. She closed her laptop and hugged them.
+
+"It's okay, honey. It was just a bow. You can share other things. How about we go to the park now? And then we can get some tasty ice cream on the way back. How does that sound?" she asked.
+
+Tom and Lily cheered. They forgot about the bow. They were happy to go to the park and have ice cream.
+
+"Yay, let's go, Mom!" they said.
+
+They grabbed their coats and ran to the door. Mom followed them with a smile. She was glad to spend time with her kids.
+Lily loved to look at the books on the bookcase. She liked the bright colors and the pictures of animals and people. Sometimes, she would take a book and sit on the floor and pretend to read it. She would make up stories in her head and say them out loud.
+
+One day, she saw a book she had never seen before. It was on the top shelf of the bookcase, where she could not reach. It had a shiny cover and a picture of a bird. Lily wanted to see the book very much. She tried to climb the bookcase, but it was too high and too hard. She felt sad and angry.
+
+She heard a voice behind her. It was her big brother, Tom. He saw Lily trying to get the book and smiled. He said, "Do you want that book, Lily? I can help you. Come here."
+
+Lily turned around and saw Tom holding a big pillow. He said, "This is a magic pillow. It can make you soar like a bird. Do you want to try it?"
+
+Lily nodded and ran to Tom. He put the pillow on the floor and lifted Lily up. He said, "Ready, set, go!" and threw Lily in the air. Lily felt a rush of wind and joy. She soared above the bookcase and reached for the book. She grabbed it and held it tight. She laughed and said, "I got it! I got it!"
+
+Tom caught Lily and hugged her. He said, "Good job, Lily! You are a brave and smart girl. Do you want to read the book with me?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She said, "Yes, please. Thank you, Tom. You are a nice and fun brother."

+Lily and Ben were playing in the yard. They liked to jump in the big pile of leaves that Dad made with the rake. The rake was long and sharp, so Dad told them to be careful and not touch it.
+
+One day, Lily saw a small, furry thing in the leaves. She wanted to see what it was, so she reached out her hand. But the thing was not friendly. It was a squirrel, and it was scared. It bit Lily's finger and ran away.
+

+
+They ran to the house and found Mom in the kitchen. She saw Lily's finger and said, "Oh, no. What happened?" Ben told her about the squirrel and the leaves. Mom said, "You were brave, Ben. Thank you for helping Lily." She washed Lily's finger and put a band-aid on it. She gave them both a hug and a cookie.

+
+She puts the dragonfly in the jar and makes holes in the lid. She gives the dragonfly some water and leaves. She thinks the dragonfly is a gifted insect. It can fly fast and change colors. She shows the jar to her mom and dad. They smile and say the dragonfly is beautiful.
+
+But they also tell Anna that the dragonfly needs to be free. They say the dragonfly has a family and friends in the pond. They say the dragonfly will be sad and lonely in the jar. They ask Anna to let the dragonfly go.
+
+Anna thinks for a while. She loves the dragonfly, but she does not want to make it sad. She decides to do the right thing. She takes the jar to the pond and opens the lid. The dragonfly flies out and joins the other dragonflies. Anna waves goodbye and says thank you. She feels proud and happy. She knows she can still love the dragonfly from afar.
+Sara and Ben were twins. They liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books. But one night, there was a big storm. The wind was loud and the rain was hard. The lights went out. It was very dark.
+
+Sara and Ben were scared. They hugged each other on the bed. They could not see anything. They heard a knock on the door. It was Mom. She had a candle in her hand. The candle made a small light.
+
+Mom came in and sat with Sara and Ben. She said, "Don't be afraid. The storm will pass soon. The candle will keep us warm and safe. You are brave and strong. I am proud of you." Mom encouraged Sara and Ben. She kissed them and hugged them.
+
+Sara and Ben felt better. They looked at the candle. The candle had a yellow flame. The flame danced and flickered. It made shadows on the wall. Sara and Ben smiled.

+
+Sara and Ben closed their eyes. They were not scared anymore. They were warm and cozy. They dreamed of the candle and the sun. They were happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their blocks. They liked to match the blocks by color and shape. They made towers and bridges and houses with their blocks.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a big wall with the red blocks!" Tom said. He was enthusiastic about his wall. He wanted to show Lily how tall and strong it was.
+
+Lily looked at Tom's wall. She did not like it. She wanted to make her own wall with the blue blocks. She did not want to share with Tom. She was angry and jealous.
+
+"Your wall is ugly and boring!" Lily said. She pushed Tom's wall with her hand. The blocks fell down and made a loud noise.
+
+Tom was sad and shocked. He liked his wall. He worked hard to make it. He did not understand why Lily was so mean. He started to cry.
+
+Lily did not care. She was happy to see Tom's wall fall down. She smiled and laughed. She picked up the blue blocks and started to make her own wall.

+Lily and Tom were both sad and sorry. They wished they had not fought over the blocks. They wished they had been nice and shared. They learned a hard lesson. They lost their blocks and their fun.
+Tom is a pilot. He likes to fly big planes in the sky. He works hard and he is good at his job. But sometimes he gets tired of flying. He wants to try something new.
+
+One day, he sees a boat near the airport. It is a sailboat. It has a big white sail and a small motor. Tom thinks it looks fun. He goes to the boat and meets the owner. His name is Sam.
+
+"Hello, I am Tom. I am a pilot. Can I sail with you?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, I am Sam. I am a sailor. I can teach you how to sail. Come on board." Sam says.

+Tom and Sam sail for a while. They enjoy the sun and the sea. They make a new friend. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the attic. They liked to find old things and make up stories about them. They saw a big box with a shiny lock. They wanted to open it and see what was inside.
+
+"Maybe it has treasure or toys or books," Lily said.
+
+"Or maybe it has a monster or a ghost or a spider," Tom said.
+
+They tried to pull the lock, but it was too hard. They looked for a key, but they could not find one. They saw a hammer on a shelf. Tom had an idea.
+
+"I can use this to break the lock," he said. He took the hammer and swung it at the box.
+
+But he missed the lock and hit the box. The box broke and a lot of dust came out. The dust was cold and made them cough and sneeze. They could not see anything.
+
+"Help! Help!" Lily and Tom cried.
+
+But no one heard them. The attic door was closed and locked. They were trapped in the dust. They were scared and cold and sad. They wished they had not played with the box. They wished they had listened to their mom, who told them not to go to the attic. They wished they could go back to their room and hug their toys. But they could not. They were stuck in the dust. The end.
+Tim and Amy were playing in the living room. They had a big box of toys and they poured them all over the floor. They made a castle with the blocks, a zoo with the animals, and a car with the wheels.
+
+"Look, Amy, I can drive the car!" Tim said, making vroom-vroom noises.
+
+"I want to drive too!" Amy said, grabbing the car.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Tim said, pulling it back.
+
+They started to fight over the car. They shouted and pushed and pulled. They did not hear their mom coming.
+
+"Tim! Amy! What are you doing?" Mom said, looking at the mess. "You are making too much noise and you are not sharing. You need to clean up and say sorry to each other."
+
+Tim and Amy stopped fighting. They looked at their mom. They felt bad.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," they said.
+
+"Sorry, Tim," Amy said.
+
+"Sorry, Amy," Tim said.
+
+They hugged each other. They started to pick up the toys and put them back in the box.
+
+Mom smiled. She was happy that they made up. She looked at the ceiling. It was clear and blue. She saw a bird flying by. She pointed at it.
+
+"Look, Tim and Amy, a bird!" she said.
+
+Tim and Amy looked up. They saw the bird. It was white and fluffy. It sang a pretty song.
+
+"Wow, a bird!" they said.
+
+They forgot about the car. They watched the bird. They were happy.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, Tim sees a new toy in the shop. It is a big white truck. Tim wants to own the truck. He asks his mom for money.
+
+"Mom, can I have money for the truck? It is white and big and I like it a lot."
+
+Mom looks at the truck and shakes her head. "No, Tim, you have enough toys. You don't need the truck. It is too expensive."
+
+Tim is sad. He walks away from the shop. He sees Sam playing with his red car. Sam is happy. He sees Tim and waves.
+
+"Hi, Tim, do you want to play with me? I have a new car. It is red and fast and I like it a lot."
+
+Tim looks at Sam's car. He is not happy. He wants the white truck. He says to Sam.
+
+"No, Sam, I don't want to play with you. Your car is not good. It is red and slow and I don't like it at all."
+
+Sam is surprised. He does not understand why Tim is angry. He says to Tim.
+
+"Tim, why are you angry? We are friends. We can share our toys. You can play with my car and I can play with your ball."
+
+Tim thinks for a moment. He remembers that Sam is his friend. He remembers that sharing is good. He feels sorry for being rude. He says to Sam.
+
+"Sam, I am sorry. I was angry because I wanted the white truck. But you are right. We are friends. We can share our toys. You can play with my ball and I can play with your car."
+
+Sam smiles. He is glad that Tim is not angry anymore. He gives Tim his car and takes Tim's ball. They play together. They are happy. They are eager to have fun. They don't need the white truck. They have each other.
+Anna was a young girl who liked to play in the garden. She saw many flowers and bugs and birds. She wanted to touch everything and learn their names.
+
+One day, she saw a bee on a yellow flower. It was small and fuzzy and had black and yellow stripes. Anna thought it was pretty and wanted to touch it. She reached out her hand slowly and gently.
+
+But the bee did not like to be touched. It felt Anna's finger and got scared. It stung Anna with its sharp tail and flew away. Anna cried out loud and felt a lot of pain. Her finger was red and swollen.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and came to see what was wrong. She saw the bee sting and hugged Anna. She put some ice and cream on Anna's finger and told her a story.
+
+She said, "Bees are good bugs. They make honey and help the flowers grow. But they do not like to be touched. They think you are a danger and they try to protect themselves. You have to be careful and respectful when you see a bee. You can look at it and admire it, but do not touch it. That way, you and the bee can be friends and not hurt each other."
+
+Anna learned her lesson. She said sorry to the bee and thanked her mom. She still liked to play in the garden, but she did not touch the bees anymore. She watched them from a distance and smiled. She was happy and so were the bees.
+Lily liked to play with her fan. She liked how it made the air cool and how it made her hair fly. She liked to turn it on and off and change the speed. She did not like to share her fan with anyone.
+
+One day, her friend Ben came to visit. He saw the fan and wanted to play with it too. He asked Lily if he could have a turn. Lily said no. She said it was her fan and she did not want to share. Ben felt sad and angry. He said Lily was not a good friend.
+
+Lily's mom heard them argue. She came to the room and asked what was wrong. Ben told her that Lily did not let him play with the fan. Lily's mom looked at Lily and said, "Lily, do you understand what it means to be a good friend? A good friend is someone who shares and cares. A good friend is someone who makes others happy, not sad. How would you feel if Ben did not share his toys with you?"
+
+Lily thought about it. She remembered how she felt when Ben let her play with his bike and his blocks. She felt happy and grateful. She realized that she was not being a good friend to Ben. She felt sorry and ashamed. She said to Ben, "I'm sorry, Ben. I was not a good friend. You can play with my fan. I will share it with you."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I will share my toys with you too." They hugged and played with the fan together. They had fun and laughed. Lily's mom was proud of them. She said, "That's very nice of you, Lily and Ben. You understand what it means to be a good friend. A good friend is a treasure. You are lucky to have each other."
+
+The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. Be a good friend and make others happy.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes. They are very happy.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so nice!" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, he is. But he is also very cold. Do you think he wants to come inside with us?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She does not want to leave the snowman alone. But she also does not want him to freeze.
+
+"Maybe we can bring him a seat and a blanket. Then he can sit near the door and watch us play inside," she suggests.
+
+Ben likes the idea. He runs to the house and gets a small chair and a warm blanket. He brings them to the snowman and puts them next to him.
+
+"Here you go, Mr. Snowman. This is your seat and your blanket. You can stay here and be cozy," he says.
+
+Anna and Ben wrap the blanket around the snowman and put the hat on his head. They smile at him and wave.
+
+"Bye, Mr. Snowman. We will come back soon. Be quiet and do not move," they say.
+
+They go inside the house and play with their toys. They do not know that the snowman is very happy. He likes his seat and his blanket. He likes to watch them play. He does not feel cold or lonely. He feels like he has two new friends. He does not move, but he smiles.
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play outside in the yard. Sometimes they play with a ball, sometimes they dig in the dirt, sometimes they chase each other. They have fun together.
+
+One day, it is very cold and windy. Ben and Sam feel cold and hungry. They go inside the house and see their mom in the kitchen. She is making soup for them.
+
+"Mom, can we have some soup?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, of course, my boys. Come and sit at the table. The soup is almost ready." Mom says.
+
+She pours the hot soup into two bowls and gives them to Ben and Sam. They blow on the soup to cool it down and then take a sip.
+
+"Mmm, this soup is good. It has carrots and potatoes and chicken." Sam says.
+
+"Yes, it is good. It makes me feel warm and happy." Ben says.
+
+They eat their soup and bread and drink their milk. They feel their bellies fill up and their cheeks turn pink. They gain some energy and strength from the soup.
+
+"Thank you, mom, for the soup. It was delicious." Ben and Sam say.
+
+"You're welcome, my boys. I'm glad you liked it. Now, do you want to play some more?" Mom asks.
+
+Ben and Sam look at each other and smile. They nod their heads and say yes. They put on their coats and hats and gloves and go outside again. They see their dad raking the leaves in the yard. He has a rough beard and a big smile.
+
+"Hi, dad. Can we help you?" Ben and Sam ask.
+
+"Hi, boys. Sure, you can help me. Grab a rake and join me. We can make a big pile of leaves and then jump in it." Dad says.
+
+Ben and Sam grab a rake and help their dad. They rake the leaves and make a big pile. Then they run and jump in it. They laugh and giggle and have fun. They are happy. They love their soup and their mom and their dad and each other.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big gray cloud in the sky. It looks like rain.
+
+"Uh-oh, we have to hurry!" mom says. "Let's go back to the car before we get wet."
+
+Ben and Lily nod and run to the car with their mom and dad. They hold their hands and look at the cloud. It is getting darker and darker.
+
+"Can we stay in the park a little longer?" Lily asks. "I want to swing on the swings."
+
+"Sorry, sweetie, we can't stay," dad says. "The rain is coming soon. Maybe we can come back another day when it is sunny."
+
+Ben and Lily feel sad. They like the park. They like the swings and the slide and the sandbox. They don't like the rain. It makes everything wet and cold.
+
+They get in the car and buckle their seat belts. Mom starts the car and drives away. The rain starts to fall. It makes a loud noise on the windows.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" Lily says. "There is a rainbow in the sky. It has many colors. It is so pretty."
+
+Ben looks out the window and sees the rainbow. He smiles. He likes the rainbow. It makes him happy.
+
+"Wow, you're right, Lily," he says. "The rainbow is very pretty. Maybe the rain is not so bad after all."
+
+Mom and dad look at the rainbow too. They smile. They are happy to see their twins happy.
+
+They drive home and sing a song. They sing about the rain and the rainbow and the park. They have fun. They love each other.
+Anna and Ben were having breakfast with their mom and dad. They liked to eat toast and eggs and sausage. Sausage was their favorite food. They always asked for more sausage.
+
+"Can I have another sausage, please?" Anna said.
+
+"Me too, me too!" Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and gave them each another sausage. Dad was reading the newspaper. He did not want any sausage. He said sausage was too greasy.
+
+Suddenly, there was a loud knock on the door. Mom went to see who it was. It was a man with a big box. He said he had a package to send to their house.
+
+"Who is it from?" Mom asked.
+
+The man looked at the label and said, "It's from your aunt Sue. She lives far away. She sent you a present."
+
+Mom thanked the man and took the box. She brought it to the kitchen and put it on the table. Anna and Ben were curious. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Can we open it, Mom?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, let's see what aunt Sue sent us," Mom said.
+
+She cut the tape and opened the box. Inside, there was a lot of paper and bubble wrap. Mom took them out and found a smaller box. She opened that one too. Inside, there was another box. And another. And another.
+
+Mom, Anna and Ben kept opening boxes until they reached the last one. It was very small. Mom opened it and gasped. It was a sausage. A tiny, dried, wrinkled sausage.
+
+"What is this?" Mom said.
+
+Anna and Ben looked at the sausage and frowned. They did not like it. It did not look like a good sausage. It looked like a bad sausage.
+
+"That's a rude present," Anna said.
+
+"Yeah, that's a rude sausage," Ben said.
+
+Dad looked up from his newspaper and saw the sausage. He laughed.
+
+"That's aunt Sue for you," he said. "She always sends silly jokes. She thinks they are funny. She does not mean to be rude. She just wants to make us laugh."
+
+Mom, Anna and Ben did not laugh. They did not think the sausage was funny. They thought it was a waste of boxes.
+
+"Can we throw it away, Mom?" Anna asked.
+
+"Can we have more toast and eggs, Mom?" Ben asked.
+
+Mom nodded and threw the sausage in the trash. She gave them more toast and eggs. They ate their breakfast and forgot about the sausage. They decided they did not like aunt Sue's jokes. They liked their mom's jokes better. Mom's jokes were funny and kind. Not rude and silly.
+Tim and Tom were two monkeys who lived in a big zoo. They liked to play and swing on the trees, but they did not like the other animals. They thought they were better and smarter than everyone else. They always made fun of the lions, the elephants, the giraffes, and the zebras.
+
+One day, they saw a big yellow barrel near their cage. They were curious and wanted to see what was inside. They climbed on top of the barrel and opened the lid. They saw many bananas, their favorite food. They were very happy and started to eat the bananas.
+
+"Look at us, we are so lucky!" Tim said. "We have all the bananas we want, and we don't have to share with anyone!"
+
+"Yes, we are the best!" Tom agreed. "We don't need the other animals, they are silly and boring!"
+
+They did not know that the barrel was a trap. The zookeeper had put the bananas inside to catch the naughty monkeys. He wanted to move them to another zoo, where they would learn to be nice and friendly. He saw them eating the bananas and smiled. He closed the lid and locked the barrel. He put the barrel on a truck and drove away.
+
+Tim and Tom heard a loud noise and felt the barrel moving. They were scared and confused. They tried to open the lid, but it was too hard. They shouted and banged on the barrel, but no one heard them.
+
+"Help, help!" Tim cried. "What is happening? Where are we going?"
+
+"I don't know, I don't know!" Tom sobbed. "We are stuck in this barrel, and we can't get out!"
+
+They realized that they had made a big mistake. They wished they had been kind and friendly to the other animals. They wished they had shared the bananas with them. They wished they had united with them, instead of being selfish and mean.
+
+But it was too late. They were alone and trapped in the yellow barrel. They did not know where they were going, or if they would ever see their home again.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be greedy and rude, or you might end up in trouble. Be kind and friendly, and unite with others, or you might lose everything.
+Lily liked to play with her pink cord. She used it to make shapes, like a heart or a star. She also liked to pretend it was a snake or a worm. She would wiggle it and make hissing noises.
+
+One day, she found a new toy in her room. It was a big, furry lion with a mane and a tail. It had a button on its paw. Lily wondered what would happen if she pressed it. She picked up the lion and hugged it. It felt soft and warm.
+
+She pressed the button and heard a loud roar. She was so scared that she dropped the lion and ran to her mom. "Mommy, mommy, the lion roared at me!" she cried.
+
+Mommy came to see what was wrong. She saw the lion on the floor and the pink cord next to it. She smiled and picked up the lion. "Don't be afraid, Lily. It's just a toy. It roars when you press the button. It's not real. Do you want to try again?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She didn't like the roar. She liked the pink cord better. She grabbed the cord and wrapped it around her neck. She felt safe and happy. She made a hissing noise and smiled. "I'm a snake, mommy. I don't roar. I hiss."
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a big tank that could make noises and move. Ben had a small car that was quiet and slow. Lily liked her tank very much and did not want to share it with Ben.
+
+"Can I play with your tank, Lily?" Ben asked. "My car is boring."
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said. "You have your own toy. Go away!"
+
+Ben felt sad and angry. He wanted to try the tank too. He thought Lily was selfish and mean. He waited until Lily was not looking and grabbed the tank from her.
+
+"Hey, give it back!" Lily shouted. She ran after Ben and tried to take the tank from him. They both pulled and pushed and yelled.
+
+"Ow, you pinched me!" Ben cried. He let go of the tank and rubbed his arm.
+
+"Good, that's what you get for stealing my tank!" Lily said. She hugged the tank and smiled.
+
+They heard their mom coming into the room. She saw them fighting and frowned.
+
+"What's going on here?" she asked. "Why are you hurting each other?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at their mom and felt ashamed. They knew they had done something wrong. They did not answer.
+
+Mom took the tank and the car and put them on a shelf. She said, "You two need to learn how to share and be nice to each other. No more toys for today. Go to your rooms and think about what you did."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and walked to their rooms. They wished they had not been so selfish and mean. They wanted to say sorry and play together. They hoped mom would let them have their toys back soon.
+Ben and Mia are friends who like to play games. They have a big box of games in the playroom. One day, they want to play a new game. They look at the box and see a picture of a car race.
+
+"Let's play this game," Ben says. "It looks fun."
+
+"OK," Mia agrees. "How do we play?"
+
+They open the box and find a board, some cards, and four cars. They read the rules on the box. They learn that they have to move their cars around the board by drawing cards. The cards tell them how many spaces to move. The first car to reach the finish line wins.
+
+They decide to play. Ben chooses the red car and Mia chooses the blue car. They put their cars on the start line. They shuffle the cards and put them in a pile.
+
+"Who goes first?" Mia asks.
+
+"Let's discuss," Ben says. "We can take turns, or we can draw a card to see who goes first."
+
+"I think we should take turns," Mia says. "It's fair that way."
+
+"OK," Ben says. "You can go first, then. I'll go second."
+
+They start to play. They draw cards and move their cars. Sometimes they get lucky and move a lot of spaces. Sometimes they get unlucky and move only a few spaces. They have fun and cheer for their cars.
+
+But soon, they become competitive. They want to win the game. They start to argue and complain.
+
+"That's not fair!" Ben says. "You got a card that lets you move ten spaces. I only got a card that lets me move two spaces."
+
+"Well, that's how the game works," Mia says. "You can't change the cards. You have to play with what you get."
+
+"But you're too far ahead," Ben says. "You're almost at the finish line. I'm still in the middle of the board. You're going to win."
+
+"Maybe, maybe not," Mia says. "You never know what cards you'll get next. Maybe you'll get a card that lets you catch up. Maybe I'll get a card that makes me go back. Anything can happen."
+
+They keep playing. They draw more cards and move their cars. They get closer and closer to the finish line. They get more and more competitive. They forget to have fun. They only care about winning.
+
+Who will win the game? Will they still be friends after the game? What do you think?
+Ben and Lily liked to play with their balloons. They blew air into them and tied them with strings. Then they let them go and watched them rise in the sky. They liked the colors and shapes of the balloons. They liked how they moved in the air.
+
+One day, they saw a big balloon in the sky. It was not like their balloons. It was much bigger and had a basket under it. It had fire inside it. They wondered what it was and who was in it.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" Lily said. "What is that balloon?"
+
+"I don't know, Lily," Ben said. "It is not ordinary. It is different."
+
+They ran to their mom and dad, who were sitting on a bench. They pointed at the big balloon.
+
+"Mom, Dad, what is that balloon?" they asked.
+
+"That is a hot air balloon, Ben and Lily," Mom said. "It is a special kind of balloon that can carry people. The fire makes the air inside the balloon hot, and that makes it rise. The people in the basket can control the fire and the motion of the balloon."
+
+"Wow, that is amazing!" Ben and Lily said. "Can we go in a hot air balloon someday?"
+
+"Maybe someday, if you are good and brave," Dad said. "But for now, you can enjoy your own balloons. They are also fun and beautiful."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and smiled. They went back to their balloons and played with them. They still liked their balloons, even if they were ordinary. They liked how they rose in the sky. They liked how they moved in the air.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see many flowers and birds. They like to look at them and smell them. Anna has a camera. She wants to take pictures of the flowers and birds.
+
+"Look, Ben, a yellow flower!" Anna says. She points to a big sunflower. She holds her camera and snaps a picture.
+
+"Wow, Anna, that is a beautiful flower!" Ben says. He smiles and claps his hands. He sees a blue bird on a branch. He points to it and says, "Look, Anna, a blue bird!"
+
+Anna turns and sees the bird. She holds her camera and snaps another picture. "Wow, Ben, that is a beautiful bird!" Anna says. She giggles and hugs him.
+
+They take more pictures of the flowers and birds. They have fun and laugh. They fill up the camera with pictures. Anna says, "We finish, Ben. We have no more space for pictures."
+
+Ben says, "That's okay, Anna. We have many pictures of beautiful things. We can show them to Mom and Dad. They will be happy."
+
+Anna says, "Yes, Ben. Let's go home and show them. They will love our pictures."
+
+They hold hands and walk to their home. They are happy and proud of their pictures. They can't wait to show them to their parents.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play with toys, draw pictures and read books. One day, they decided to celebrate their friendship with a special lunch. They asked their moms to help them make sausages.
+
+Lily's mom cooked the sausages in a pan. She made them brown and crispy. Tom's mom cut some bread and cheese. She also brought some ketchup and mustard. Lily and Tom set the table with plates, napkins and cups. They were very excited to eat their sausages.
+
+"Can I have two sausages, please?" Lily asked politely.
+
+"Of course, here you go," Tom's mom said, putting two sausages on her plate.
+
+"Thank you," Lily said, smiling.
+
+"Can I have some cheese, please?" Tom asked nicely.
+
+"Sure, here you go," Lily's mom said, giving him some cheese.
+
+"Thank you," Tom said, grinning.
+
+They both put some ketchup and mustard on their bread and made sandwiches with their sausages and cheese. They took big bites and chewed happily. They drank some juice and wiped their mouths.
+
+"That was delicious," Lily said, patting her tummy.
+
+"I agree," Tom said, nodding his head.
+
+They looked at each other and giggled. They were very happy to share their lunch. They decided to be more creative and make some dessert. They took some cookies and marshmallows and made funny faces with them. They ate their dessert and laughed.
+
+"That was fun," Lily said, clapping her hands.
+
+"I agree," Tom said, clapping his hands too.
+
+They hugged each other and said, "You are my best friend."
+
+They cleaned up the table and thanked their moms. They went back to their room and played with their toys. They had a wonderful day. They celebrated their friendship with sausages.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to make vroom-vroom noises and pretend they were racing. Lily had a red car and Ben had a blue car. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Ben wanted to play with Lily's car too. He said, "Give me your car, Lily. It is nicer than mine." Lily said, "No, Ben. This is my car. You have your own car." Ben got angry and tried to grab Lily's car. Lily held on to her car and said, "Stop it, Ben. You are being mean."
+
+Ben did not stop. He pushed Lily hard and made her fall on the floor. Lily hit her head on the table and started to cry. She felt a big bump on her head and it hurt a lot. Ben felt sorry and scared. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to hurt you. Are you okay?"
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Lily crying and Ben looking sad. She said, "What happened here? Why did you push Lily, Ben?" Ben said, "I wanted her car, Mom. But she didn't let me have it." Mom said, "That's no reason to push Lily, Ben. You have to share and be gentle with your sister. Pushing is not nice. It can hurt people."
+
+Mom picked up Lily and hugged her. She said, "Let me see your head, Lily. Oh, you have a big bump. Does it hurt a lot?" Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Mom. It hurts a lot." Mom said, "We have to go to the hospital, Lily. They will check your head and make you feel better. Don't worry, it will be okay."
+
+Lily and Ben got in the car with Mom. Ben said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I won't push you again. Can I play with your car later?" Lily said, "It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. You can play with my car later. But you have to ask me first." Ben said, "Okay, Lily. I will ask you first."
+
+At the hospital, the doctor looked at Lily's head and said, "You have a small cut and a bruise, Lily. But nothing serious. You are a brave girl. I will put a band-aid on your cut and give you some ice for your bruise. It will heal soon." Lily said, "Thank you, doctor. Will it still hurt?" The doctor said, "It may hurt a little, but not for long. You can take some medicine if it hurts too much. And you can have a yummy treat after. What do you like?" Lily said, "I like ice cream." The doctor said, "Then you can have some ice cream after. What flavor do you want?" Lily said, "I want chocolate." The doctor said, "Chocolate it is. You are a good girl, Lily."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, doctor. You are nice." The doctor said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are nice too." Mom said, "Thank you, doctor. You are very kind." The doctor said, "You're welcome, Mom. You have lovely children." Ben said, "Thank you, doctor. Can I have some ice cream too?" The doctor said, "Sure, Ben. You can have some ice cream too. What flavor do you want?" Ben said, "I want vanilla." The doctor said, "Vanilla it is. You are a good boy, Ben."
+
+Lily and Ben had some ice cream and felt better. They hugged Mom and said, "We love you, Mom." Mom said, "I love you too, Lily and Ben. You are my precious children." They went home and played with their toy cars together. They shared and were gentle with each other. They had a lot of fun.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. They have a big red ball. They throw the ball to each other in the park.
+
+One day, a big dog comes to the park. The dog sees the ball. The dog runs to the ball and grabs it with his teeth. He runs away with the ball.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Anna shouts. She runs after the dog. Ben follows her.
+
+The dog is fast. He runs to the other side of the park. He drops the ball near a tree. He sees a squirrel. He chases the squirrel.
+
+Anna and Ben see the ball. They run to the ball. They are happy. They pick up the ball.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is a car. The car is coming to the park. The car is big and noisy. The car scares Anna and Ben.
+
+They drop the ball. They run away from the car. They run to their mom. Their mom is sitting on a bench. She is reading a book.
+
+"Mom, mom, we lost our ball!" Anna and Ben cry. They hug their mom.
+
+"Where is your ball?" their mom asks.
+
+"A dog took it. Then a car came. We were scared. We ran away. We left the ball." Anna and Ben say.
+
+Their mom hugs them. She says, "Don't worry, my loves. I'm glad you are safe. You are more important than a ball. We can get another ball. But you are my only twins. You are my reliable twins. You always stick together. I'm proud of you."
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with bikes. They have helmets to keep their heads safe. Tim has a red helmet. Sam has a blue helmet.
+
+One day, they go to the park. They see a big tree. The tree has a rope. The rope has a tire. The tire is a swing. Tim and Sam want to try the swing.
+
+"Can I go first?" Tim asks.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Sam says.
+
+Tim puts on his helmet. He runs to the tree. He grabs the rope. He sits on the tire. He pushes with his feet. He swings high and low. He feels happy.
+
+Sam waits for his turn. He puts on his helmet. He sees something on the tree. It is a hairy spider. The spider is big and black. It has eight legs. It hangs from a web.
+
+"Tim, look!" Sam shouts. "There is a spider!"
+
+Tim stops swinging. He looks at the spider. He feels scared.
+
+"Let's go away!" Tim says.
+
+They jump off the tire. They run to their bikes. They leave their helmets on the ground. They ride away fast.
+
+The spider stays on the tree. It does not care about the helmets. It hangs from its web. It waits for a fly.
+Tom and Sue like to play with their toys in the garden. They have cars, dolls, balls and blocks. They make roads, houses, parks and shops with their toys. They are happy and have fun.
+
+One day, a big dog comes into the garden. The dog is bad. He barks and runs and jumps. He knocks over the toys and scatters them everywhere. He bites the cars, the dolls, the balls and the blocks. He breaks them and makes them dirty. Tom and Sue are scared and sad. They cry and shout.
+
+"Go away, bad dog! Leave our toys alone!" Tom says.
+
+"Help, help! We need a hero!" Sue says.
+
+But no one hears them. No one comes to help them. The dog does not go away. He keeps barking and running and jumping. He keeps knocking over and biting the toys. He scatters them more and more. Tom and Sue have no toys left. They have nothing to play with. They are unhappy and have no fun.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They saw a big tree with a rope. The rope had a round thing at the end. It was a swing.
+
+"Let's swing!" Lily said. She ran to the rope and grabbed it. She sat on the round thing and pushed with her feet. She went up and down, up and down. She felt the wind in her hair and laughed.
+
+"Me too!" Ben said. He waited for his turn. He was smaller than Lily and the rope was too high for him. He jumped and reached, but he could not grab it.
+
+"Help me, Lily!" he said. He felt sad.
+
+Lily saw Ben and stopped swinging. She was a good sister. She got off the round thing and gave it to Ben.
+
+"Here you go, Ben. You can swing now. But be careful. Don't let go of the rope. It is serious. You can fall and hurt yourself." She said.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are nice." Ben said. He smiled and hugged Lily. He sat on the round thing and held the rope tight. Lily pushed him gently. He went up and down, up and down. He felt happy and giggled.
+
+They swung together for a long time. They had fun. They liked the big tree and the rope. It was made of wood. It was strong and good. They liked to hang on it and swing. They were happy.
+Ben and Mia liked to play near the lake. They liked to throw stones and watch the water splash. They liked to see the ducks and the fish. They liked to make sand castles and draw pictures.
+
+One day, they decided to make a big boat with sticks and leaves. They worked hard and used a lot of glue. They wanted to complete their boat and sail it on the lake. They thought their boat was powerful and strong.
+
+"Look, our boat is done!" Ben said. "Let's put it in the water and see if it floats."
+
+"Okay, but be careful. The lake is deep and cold." Mia said. "We don't want to fall in."
+
+They carried their boat to the edge of the lake. They put it gently on the water and gave it a push. They watched it move slowly on the waves. They were happy and proud.
+
+"Wow, our boat is amazing!" Mia said. "It can go far and fast."
+
+"Yes, it is. We are good builders." Ben said. "We should make more boats and have a race."
+
+They smiled and clapped. They had fun with their boat and their lake. They were happy and proud.
+Sam and Mia liked to look at the stars at night. They had a big book with pictures of stars and planets. They learned the names of some of them. Sam's favorite was Mars, because it was red. Mia's favorite was Saturn, because it had rings.
+
+One night, they saw something bright and fast in the sky. It was not a star or a planet. It was a comet. A comet is a big ball of ice and dust that zooms around the sun. Sometimes, it comes close to the earth and we can see it.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Sam said. "It's a comet! It's so shiny and fast!"
+
+"It's beautiful!" Mia said. "It looks like a star with a long tail!"
+
+They watched the comet zoom across the sky. It was very bright and made a trail of light behind it. They wondered where it came from and where it was going.
+
+"Do you think the comet is strong?" Mia asked. "Can it break the stars or the planets?"
+
+Sam thought for a moment. He remembered what their book said. "No, the comet is not strong. It is very small compared to the stars and the planets. They are much bigger and stronger. The comet cannot hurt them. It just passes by and says hello."
+
+Mia nodded. She felt happy and curious. She wanted to learn more about the comet and the other things in the sky. She hugged Sam and said, "I like the comet. It's like a friend from far away. Maybe it will come back someday."
+
+Sam hugged her back and said, "Me too. I like the comet. It's like a gift from the sun. Maybe we will see it again someday."
+
+They smiled and waved at the comet. They hoped it would have a safe and fun journey. They thanked the sun for sharing its light and warmth. They thanked the stars and the planets for being their neighbors. They thanked the sky for being their window to the wonder. They thanked each other for being their best friends. They went to bed and dreamed of zooming comets.
+Sara and Ben like to play with their cat, Fluffy. Fluffy is soft and gentle. She does not bite or scratch. She likes to purr and cuddle.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben find a new toy for Fluffy. It is a long strip of cloth. It is red and shiny. Sara and Ben think Fluffy will like it.
+
+They wave the strip in front of Fluffy. Fluffy looks at it. She listens to it rustle. She jumps and chases it. She catches it with her paws. She rolls on the floor with it. She is happy.
+
+Sara and Ben laugh and clap. They are happy too. They take turns to play with Fluffy and the strip. They have fun.
+
+Fluffy gets tired. She lets go of the strip. She finds a sunny spot. She curls up and closes her eyes. She sleeps.
+
+Sara and Ben are quiet. They do not want to wake Fluffy. They listen to her snore. They smile. They love Fluffy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and chase each other. They saw a big, hairy dog next to the fence. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Lily said. "What is your name?"
+
+The dog barked and licked Lily's face. She giggled and petted his fur. Ben came closer and said, "Can we play with you, dog?"
+
+The dog barked again and nodded. He ran to a hose and bit it. Water came out and sprayed everywhere. The dog was happy and shook his body. Lily and Ben laughed and ran after him. They got wet and soaked.
+
+They did not see the dark cloud in the sky. It was getting bigger and bigger. Soon, it started to rain. The rain was cold and heavy. Lily and Ben stopped playing and looked up.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "We have to go inside!"
+
+"Come on, dog!" Ben said. "You can come with us!"
+
+The dog followed them to the house. They knocked on the door and waited. Lily's mom opened the door and saw them. She was surprised and smiled.
+
+"Hello, kids!" she said. "Who is your new friend?"
+
+"This is dog!" Lily said. "He is hairy and fun!"
+
+"He is also soaked!" Ben said. "Can we dry him, mom?"
+
+"Of course!" Lily's mom said. "But first, let's get you some towels and warm clothes. You don't want to catch a cold!"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and went inside with the dog. They were happy and cozy. They liked the dog and hoped he could stay. The dog liked them too and wagged his tail. He was glad he found some new friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy automobiles in the backyard. They liked to make them zoom and beep and crash on the grass. Lily had a red automobile and Ben had a blue one.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can make my automobile jump over this rock!" Ben said, as he pushed his automobile with his hand.
+
+"Wow, that's cool, Ben! Can I try?" Lily asked, as she picked up her automobile.
+
+"Sure, Lily, but be careful. The rock is big and hard," Ben said, as he moved aside.
+
+Lily tried to make her automobile jump over the rock, but she pushed too hard. Her automobile flew over the rock and landed in the bird bath. Splash! Water poured out of the bird bath and soaked Lily and her automobile.
+
+"Oh no, Lily, your automobile is wet!" Ben said, as he ran to help her.
+
+Lily started to cry. She was wet and cold and her automobile was wet too. She thought her automobile was broken.
+
+"Ben, my automobile is broken! It can't zoom and beep and crash anymore!" Lily sobbed, as she hugged her wet automobile.
+
+Ben felt sorry for Lily. He knew how much she loved her automobile. He had an idea.
+
+"Don't cry, Lily, your automobile is not broken. It's just wet. We can dry it with a towel and then it will be fine," Ben said, as he took his towel from his backpack.
+
+He wrapped Lily's automobile in the towel and rubbed it gently. He also wrapped Lily in the towel and hugged her.
+
+"See, Lily, your automobile is not wet anymore. It's just an ordinary automobile. It can still zoom and beep and crash," Ben said, as he gave Lily her automobile.
+
+Lily smiled and wiped her tears. She looked at her automobile and saw that it was dry and shiny. She hugged Ben and thanked him.
+
+"Thank you, Ben, you are a good friend. You made my automobile ordinary again," Lily said, as she kissed Ben on the cheek.
+
+They both laughed and played with their automobiles again. They had fun and forgot about the water and the rock. They were happy.
+Lily and Sam liked to play on the beach. They liked to make sand castles and look for shells. One day, they decided to make a big sand castle and display it to their mom and dad.
+
+They worked hard to pile up the sand and shape it into a castle. They used a bucket and a shovel and their hands. They found some shells and stones and sticks to decorate their castle. They made a flag out of a leaf and a twig. They were very proud of their castle.
+
+"Look, mom and dad, look at our castle!" they shouted, waving their arms. "We made it for you!"
+
+Mom and dad came over and smiled. They praised Lily and Sam for their castle. They took a picture of them with their castle.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The tide came in and the water reached their castle. The water washed away the sand and the shells and the stones and the sticks. The water took away their flag. Their castle was gone.
+
+Lily and Sam were very sad. They felt frustrated and angry. They cried and stomped their feet.
+
+"Why did the water do that?" Lily asked. "We worked so hard!"
+
+"I don't know, Lily," Sam said. "It's not fair!"
+
+Mom and dad hugged them and comforted them. They explained that the tide is the way the water moves up and down the beach. They said that sometimes the water takes away things, but sometimes it brings new things. They said that they could make another castle another day, or try something else.
+
+Lily and Sam calmed down and wiped their tears. They looked at the water and saw some shiny things. They ran to the water and picked up some new shells and stones. They smiled and showed them to mom and dad.
+
+"Look, mom and dad, look what the water gave us!" they shouted, waving their arms. "We can use them for something else!"
+
+Mom and dad smiled and nodded. They said that they were proud of them for being brave and creative. They said that they loved them very much. They took another picture of them with their new treasures.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with paint and paper. One day, they find a big window in the hall. The window is very clean and shiny. Lily and Ben think it is like a big paper.
+
+"Let's paint on the window!" Lily says.
+
+"OK!" Ben says.
+
+They get their paint and brushes. They start to paint on the window. They paint flowers and trees and birds and stars. They are very happy.
+
+But then, they hear a loud voice. It is Mom.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom says. She is very angry.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They drop their brushes. They see Mom's face. She is very red.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," Lily says.
+
+"We just wanted to paint," Ben says.
+
+Mom looks at the window. She sees the paint. She sees the mess.
+
+She sighs. She is not angry anymore. She is sad.
+
+"You can't paint on the window, Lily and Ben," Mom says. "The window is not for painting. The window is for looking. You have to clean the window now. And you have to use paper next time."
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They are sorry. They get a cloth and some water. They start to clean the window. They wipe the paint off. They make the window clean and shiny again.
+
+They hug Mom. They say they love her.
+
+Mom hugs them back. She says she loves them too.
+
+She smiles. She says they can paint on paper later.
+
+Lily and Ben smile too. They are happy again. They like to paint. But they also like to look at the window.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a race every day. They run from the slide to the swings. Lily is fast, but Ben is faster. He always wins the race.
+
+One day, Lily has a plan. She sees a big red balloon in the sky. She knows Ben likes balloons. She says to Ben, "Look, a rare balloon! Do you want to catch it?" Ben nods and smiles. He loves balloons.
+
+Lily says, "Let's race to the balloon. The first one to touch it gets to keep it." Ben agrees. He thinks he can win the race. He runs after the balloon. Lily runs too, but not as fast. She has another plan.
+
+The balloon is far away. It flies over the trees and the houses. Ben runs and runs. He does not see where he is going. He does not see the pond in his way. Splash! He falls into the water. He is wet and cold.
+
+Lily catches up with him. She sees him in the pond. She feels sorry for him. She says, "Are you okay, Ben?" Ben nods. He is okay, but he is sad. He lost the race and the balloon. He says, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was silly. I wanted the balloon too much."
+
+Lily says, "It's okay, Ben. I have a surprise for you. Look in my pocket." Ben looks. He sees a small blue balloon. Lily says, "I found this balloon on the way. I wanted to give it to you. You are my friend. I don't mind if you win the race."
+
+Ben smiles. He is happy. He says, "Thank you, Lily. You are my friend too. I don't mind if you have a plan. You are smart and kind." He takes the balloon. He gives Lily a hug. They walk back to the park. They play on the slide and the swings. They are friends. They have fun.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bird in the sky. It can fly very high and fast.
+
+"Wow, look at that bird!" Tom says. "I wish I could fly like that."
+
+"Me too," Sue says. "It must be fun to fly and see many things."
+
+They watch the bird for a long time. Then they see a small label on its leg. It has some letters and numbers on it.
+
+"What is that?" Sue asks. "Why does the bird have a label?"
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He remembers what his mom told him.
+
+"I know," he says. "That is a pigeon. It is a special bird that can carry messages. Someone put a label on it to know where it came from and where it goes."
+
+"Wow, that is cool," Sue says. "The pigeon is very smart and brave. It can fly very far and find its way back."
+
+They admire the pigeon more. Then they see another bird in the sky. It is a crow. It can fly too, but not as high and fast as the pigeon. It has no label on its leg.
+
+"Look, there is another bird," Tom says. "It is a crow. It is not as special as the pigeon. It is just a lazy bird that eats garbage and makes noise."
+
+"Me too," Sue says. "It is not as pretty as the pigeon. It is just a black bird that scares other birds."
+
+They ignore the crow and focus on the pigeon. They do not know that the crow is listening to them. The crow feels angry and sad. It thinks that they are mean and rude. It decides to teach them a lesson.
+
+The crow waits for the right moment. Then it flies down and snatches the label from the pigeon's leg. It flies away with it.
+
+"Hey, stop!" Tom shouts. "That is not yours! Give it back to the pigeon!"
+
+"Me too," Sue shouts. "That is not nice! The pigeon needs its label!"
+
+But the crow does not listen. It flies higher and higher until they cannot see it anymore. It drops the label somewhere far away.
+
+The pigeon is confused and scared. It does not know where to go without its label. It flies around and around, looking for its home.
+
+Tom and Sue feel sorry for the pigeon. They realize that they were wrong to judge the birds by their looks and labels. They learn that every bird is special and has its own value. They wish they could help the pigeon find its way back.
+
+They also learn that the crow is not lazy and stupid. It is clever and cunning. It can do things that they cannot do. They wish they could get the label back from the crow.
+
+They hope that the pigeon and the crow will be happy and safe. They decide to be more kind and respectful to all the birds and animals. They understand that they can learn something from everyone. They promise to never judge a book by its cover again.
+Tom and Anna are brother and sister. They like to go to the market with their mom. They see many things at the market: fruits, vegetables, bread, cheese, eggs, and more. They help their mom to buy what they need.
+
+"Look, mom, oranges!" Tom says. He likes oranges. They are sweet and juicy. He picks one and smells it. "Can we buy some oranges, please?"
+
+"Sure, Tom, we can buy some oranges. How many do you want?" Mom asks.
+
+"Four, please. One for me, one for Anna, one for you, and one for dad." Tom says.
+
+"Okay, four oranges. That's a good choice. Anna, do you like oranges too?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, mom, I like oranges. They are orange and round and pretty. Can I hold one?" Anna says.
+
+"Of course, Anna, you can hold one. Here you go. Be careful not to drop it." Mom says. She gives Anna an orange. Anna holds it in her hands and smiles.
+
+Mom pays the seller for the oranges and puts them in a bag. She thanks the seller and says goodbye. Tom and Anna also say goodbye and thank you. They follow their mom to the next stall. They are happy. They have oranges for later. They love the market.
+Lily and Ben like to play sport. They like to run and kick and throw. One day, they see a big field with many people. They want to join them.
+
+"Look, Lily, they are playing sport too. Can we play with them?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, Ben, let's go. Maybe they will let us play," Lily says. She holds Ben's hand and leads him to the field.
+
+But the people on the field are not nice. They are old and mean. They do not want Lily and Ben to play with them. They yell and push and kick them.
+
+"Go away, you little brats. This is our sport, not yours. You are too small and slow. You don't know how to play," one of them says.
+
+"Ow, that hurts. Stop it, please. We just want to play," Lily cries.
+
+"Me too, me too. We are sorry. We will go now," Ben says.
+
+But the people do not stop. They keep hurting Lily and Ben. They make them fall and bleed and cry. They laugh and mock and cheer.
+
+Lily and Ben are very sad and scared. They wish they never came to the field. They wish they stayed at home. They wish someone would help them. But no one does. The end.
+Lila and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Lila had a baby doll that she loved very much. She gave her baby a bottle and a blanket and rocked her to sleep.
+
+Tom had a toy car that he liked to zoom around the floor. He made loud vroom-vroom sounds and pretended to be a racer. He saw Lila's baby doll and wanted to play with it. He grabbed the baby from Lila's arms and ran away.
+
+"Hey, give me back my baby!" Lila shouted. She chased after Tom and tried to get her baby back. Tom was faster and ran to the other side of the room. He threw the baby in the air and caught it. He laughed and said, "This is not a baby, this is a ball!"
+
+Lila was very angry and sad. She cried and said, "No, that is my baby! You are mean, Tom! You hurt my baby!" She ran to her mom and told her what Tom did. Mom was not happy with Tom. She said, "Tom, that is not nice. You have to give Lila back her baby and say sorry. You have to be gentle with babies, they are not balls."
+
+Tom felt bad for making Lila cry. He realized he was wrong. He walked to Lila and gave her back her baby. He said, "I'm sorry, Lila. I was silly. Your baby is not a ball. Your baby is very pretty and soft. Can I see your baby?"
+
+Lila wiped her tears and smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. I forgive you. You can see my baby, but you have to be careful. Do you want to hold her?" She handed her baby to Tom and showed him how to hold her. Tom held the baby gently and looked at her face. He said, "Wow, your baby is impressive. She has big eyes and a cute nose. She looks like you, Lila."
+
+Lila and Tom hugged and made up. They decided to play together with their toys. They took turns to feed the baby and drive the car. They had fun and learned to share and be kind. Mom was proud of them and gave them a snack. She said, "You are good kids. I love you both very much."
+Lily loved to write in her journal. She had a pink journal with a unicorn on the cover. She wrote about her day, her friends, her toys and her dreams. She used crayons and stickers to make her journal beautiful.
+
+One day, she took her journal to school. She wanted to show it to her teacher and her classmates. She was very proud of her journal. She put it on her desk and waited for the teacher to come.
+
+The teacher saw Lily's journal and smiled. She picked it up and opened it. She read some of Lily's words and looked at her pictures. She said, "Lily, this is a wonderful journal. You are a very good writer and artist. I like how you express yourself and use your imagination."
+
+Lily felt happy and shy. She said, "Thank you, teacher. I like to write in my journal. It is fun and makes me feel good."
+
+The teacher nodded and handed the journal back to Lily. She said, "You should keep writing in your journal, Lily. It is a great way to learn and grow. Maybe you can share some of your stories with us sometime."
+
+Lily replied, "Yes, teacher. I would like that. Can I show my journal to my friends too?"
+
+The teacher said, "Of course, Lily. I'm sure they would love to see your journal. But remember to be careful with it. It is very special and precious."
+
+Lily said, "I will, teacher. I love my journal. It is my best friend." She hugged her journal and smiled. She was happy to have a beautiful journal and a kind teacher.
+Tim and Jen liked to play with their toys in the garden. They had cars, dolls, blocks and balls. They had fun making noises and stories with their toys.
+
+One day, a big dog came into the garden. The dog was hungry and ignorant. He did not know that the toys were not food. He saw the toys and thought they looked tasty. He ran to the toys and started to bite them.
+
+Tim and Jen saw the dog and were scared. They shouted at the dog to go away. But the dog did not listen. He destroyed the toys with his teeth. He ripped the dolls, crushed the cars, knocked down the blocks and popped the balls.
+
+Tim and Jen were sad and angry. They cried and ran to their mom. Their mom came out and saw the mess. She saw the dog and yelled at him. The dog was scared and ran away.
+
+Mom hugged Tim and Jen and said she was sorry. She said she would buy them new toys. She also gave them a snack. She gave them olives. Tim and Jen liked olives. They ate the olives and felt a little better. They said they loved their mom and their mom said she loved them too.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and castles and bridges with the colorful blocks. They were very enthusiastic and happy.
+
+But then, Tom wanted to use the blue block that Lily had in her hand. He tried to grab it from her, but she held it tight. "No, Tom, this is my block!" she said. "You have many other blocks!"
+
+Tom was angry. He shouted at Lily, "Give me the block! It is mine! You are lying!" He pulled harder, but Lily did not let go.
+
+Lily shouted back, "No, you are lying! This is my block! I found it first! You are mean!" She pushed Tom away, but he did not fall.
+
+They both started to cry and scream. Their mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the two children fighting over the blue block. She was not happy.
+
+She took the block from them and said, "Stop it, both of you! Why are you shouting and hitting each other? This is not nice! You have to share and be kind!"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at their mom. They felt sorry and ashamed. They said, "Sorry, mom. We were wrong. We should not shout and lie. We should tell the truth and play nicely."
+
+Their mom smiled and hugged them. She said, "That's right, my loves. I'm glad you understand. Now, why don't you make up and play together again? You can take turns with the blue block, or use other blocks to make something fun."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and smiled. They said, "Okay, mom. Thank you. We love you." They gave their mom a kiss and then went back to their blocks. They apologized to each other and decided to build a big house with the blue block as the door. They were enthusiastic and happy again.
+Lily and Tom were hungry. They wanted to make a sandwich for lunch. They found some bread, some butter, and some beef in the fridge.
+
+"Can I spread the butter?" Lily asked.
+
+"OK, but be careful. Don't make a mess," Tom said.
+
+Lily took a knife and tried to spread the butter on the bread. But the butter was hard and cold. She pushed too hard and the knife slipped. The butter flew across the kitchen and landed on the floor.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried.
+
+Tom laughed. "That was funny. But we need more butter. I'll get it."
+
+He opened the fridge and reached for the butter. But he did not see the beef. The beef was on the top shelf. It was heavy and loose. It fell down and hit Tom on the head.
+
+"Ow!" Tom yelled.
+
+Lily ran to him. "Are you OK?"
+
+Tom rubbed his head. He saw the beef on the floor. He was not happy.
+
+"That was not funny. That was mean. The beef hurt me."
+
+He picked up the beef and threw it at Lily. Lily dodged and the beef hit the wall.
+
+"Stop it! Don't throw the beef!" Lily said.
+
+But Tom was angry. He threw another piece of beef at Lily. Lily threw one back at him. Soon they were having a beef fight. They threw beef all over the kitchen. They made a big mess.
+
+Mom came home. She saw the mess. She saw the bread, the butter, and the beef on the floor, on the table, on the walls, and on the kids.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked.
+
+Lily and Tom stopped. They looked at Mom. They looked at each other. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+"We were making a sandwich," Lily said.
+
+"A sandwich?" Mom said.
+
+"Yes, a sandwich. A slow sandwich," Tom said.
+Mia and Leo were playing in the park. They liked to examine the flowers, the bugs and the leaves. They were very creative and made up stories about what they saw.
+
+One day, they found a bench near a big tree. The bench was old and had many carvings on it. Mia and Leo wanted to see what they were.
+
+"Look, Leo, this is a heart with two names in it. Maybe they are friends who love each other," Mia said, pointing to a carving.
+
+"Or maybe they are pirates who share a treasure," Leo said, imagining a big chest of gold and jewels.
+
+They moved to another carving. It was a star with a smiley face in it.
+
+"This is a happy star. Maybe it is a wish star that can make your dreams come true," Mia said, closing her eyes and making a wish.
+
+"Or maybe it is a magic star that can fly and shoot lasers," Leo said, pretending to be a star and making sounds.
+
+They had fun looking at all the carvings and making up stories. They felt like they were part of the bench's history. They decided to add their own carving to the bench. They used a stick to draw a flower with their names in it.
+
+"This is our flower. It means we are friends who like to play and explore," Mia said, smiling at Leo.
+
+"Or maybe we are adventurers who discover new things and have fun," Leo said, smiling back at Mia.
+
+They hugged each other and ran to play some more. They left their flower on the bench, hoping that someone else would see it and be creative too.
+Mia and Leo were best friends. They liked to play in the garden and smell the herbs. Mia's mom grew many herbs, like mint, basil, and rosemary. She used them to cook yummy food.
+
+One day, Mia and Leo decided to make a surprise for Mia's mom. They picked some herbs and put them in a bowl. They added water and stirred. They wanted to make herb soup. They thought Mia's mom would be happy.
+
+They carried the bowl to the kitchen and put it on the table. They waited for Mia's mom to come home. When she came, she saw the bowl and smiled. She said, "What is this, my sweeties?"
+
+Mia and Leo said, "It's herb soup! We made it for you!"
+
+Mia's mom thanked them and tasted the soup. She made a funny face. The soup was bitter and sour. She did not like it. But she did not want to hurt Mia and Leo's feelings. She said, "Wow, this is very... special. Thank you for your hard work. But you know what? Herb soup is better with some salt, sugar, and other ingredients. Do you want to help me make a new batch?"
+
+Mia and Leo nodded. They felt embarrassed. They realized they did not know how to make soup. They followed Mia's mom and learned how to use the herbs properly. They had fun and made a delicious soup. They shared it with Mia's dad and brother. They all enjoyed it and praised Mia and Leo.
+
+Mia and Leo learned that making soup is not easy. They also learned that Mia's mom was very kind and patient. They hugged her and said, "We love you, mom. You are the best cook in the world!"
+
+Mia's mom smiled and said, "I love you too, my sweeties. You are the best helpers in the world!"

+Tom and Ann say: "We are sorry. We will not steal again. We will ask before we take things. We will share and be nice."
+
+The man says: "That is good. I forgive you. But you should also know that these toys are not very good. They are old and ugly. They are not fun to play with. I was going to throw them away. You can have better toys at home or at the store."

+
+"Mom, mom, we are here!" Tom and Jen said. They ran to their mom and hugged her. They told her what had happened. They said they were sorry for being stupid.

+Their mom was glad they were safe. She was also angry and scared. She said they should never go to the lake again. She said they should never leave her side. She said the alligator could have eaten them.
+
+Tom and Jen nodded. They said they would listen to their mom. They did not want to see the alligator again. They learned their lesson. They were lucky to be alive.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play at the zoo. They have a lot of fun looking at the animals. They see lions, monkeys, elephants and more.
+

+
+Tom nods. He likes zebras too. They run to the fence and try to touch the zebra. But the zebra is shy. It runs away from them.
+
+"Please, zebra, come back!" Lily calls. She makes a nice sound with her mouth. She hopes the zebra will like it.
+
+But the zebra does not come back. It stays far away. Tom and Lily are sad.
+
+"Maybe the zebra is not ready to play with us," Tom says. He looks at his watch. "It is almost time to go home. We should say goodbye to the zebra."
+
+"No, I want to stay!" Lily insists. She stamps her foot. "I want to be friends with the zebra. Maybe it will come back if we wait."
+
+Tom shakes his head. He knows they have to go. He does not want to make his mom angry. He tries to pull Lily away from the fence.
+
+"Come on, Lily, we have to go. The zebra will be here tomorrow. We can try again then."
+
+Lily does not listen. She holds on to the fence. She does not want to leave the zebra.
+
+"Please, Lily, don't be stubborn. The zebra is not ready to play with us today. Maybe it is tired or scared. We have to respect it. Maybe it will be ready tomorrow."
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She looks at the zebra. She sees that it is not happy. She feels sorry for it. She lets go of the fence.
+
+"Okay, Tom, you are right. The zebra is not ready to play with us today. I hope it will be ready tomorrow. Goodbye, zebra. I hope you have a good night."
+
+Tom and Lily wave to the zebra. The zebra looks at them. It makes a soft sound with its mouth. It sounds like a thank you.
+
+Tom and Lily smile. They hold hands and walk to the exit. They are happy. They have a new friend. They can't wait to see the zebra again.

+
+He grabbed the box and shook it hard. Lily and Ben screamed and cried. They were scared and hurt. They wanted Tom to stop.
+
+"Please, Tom, stop. You are hurting us. We are sorry. We will give you the box," Lily said.

+"OK!" Lily said. "But be careful. The dragon might be angry."
+
+They ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. Tom went first. He slid down the dragon's back and laughed. "Whee! This is great!"
+
+Lily followed him. She slid down the dragon's back and smiled. "This is fun!"
+
+But then, the dragon woke up. It was not a slide. It was a real dragon. It was very hungry and angry. It roared and snapped its teeth. It grabbed Tom and Lily with its claws.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom and Lily screamed. "Let us go!"
+
+But the dragon did not let them go. It said, "You have to pay for waking me up. You have to pay with your lives. You are my lunch!"
+
+The dragon opened its mouth and ate Tom and Lily. They were gone. The dragon was full and happy. It went back to sleep. The end.

+
+They started to pull the stick from each other, but it was too strong and did not break. They got angry and shouted.

+
+Mia pouts and says, "I don't care. I don't want to observe squirrels. I want to observe something else." Ben sighs and says, "Okay, Mia, let's observe something else. How about the flowers?

+Then they saw something on the grass. It was a crab, but it was not moving. It was lying on its back, with its legs in the air.
+
+"Mom, look, a crab!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, I see it. But it is not a live crab. It is a dead crab," Mom said.
+
+"A dead crab? What does that mean?" Lily asked.
+
+"It means it is not alive anymore. It does not breathe, or eat, or move. It is very sad," Mom said.
+
+"Why is it dead?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it got out of the water and could not find its way back. Maybe it was sick or old. Maybe a bird or a cat tried to eat it. There are many reasons why things die," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry for the dead crab. They wanted to do something nice for it.
+
+"Can we bury it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, we can. That is a kind thing to do. We can find a spot in the dirt and dig a hole. Then we can put the crab in the hole and cover it with dirt. We can also find some flowers or stones to decorate it," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom liked that idea. They found a shovel and a bucket and went to work. They dug a hole and put the crab in it. They covered it with dirt and found some yellow flowers and white stones. They made a beautiful grave for the crab.
+
+They said goodbye to the crab and thanked it for being in the park. They hoped it was happy in the ground. They felt better after burying the crab.
+
+They went back to Mom and hugged her. They told her what they did.
+
+"That was very nice of you, Lily and Tom. You are very kind and caring. I am proud of you," Mom said.
+
+She smiled and kissed them. They smiled and kissed her back.
+
+They had a good day at the park. They saw many things and learned many things. They also did a good thing. They were happy.
+One day, a young pig was bored on the farm. He wanted to have some fun and see new things. He saw a big hole in the fence and decided to spring through it. He ran and ran until he came to a big road with many cars.
+
+"Wow, this is so exciting!" he thought. He tried to cross the road, but the cars were too fast and loud. He was scared and confused. He did not know how to get back to the farm.
+
+A kind lady saw the young pig and stopped her car. She got out and said, "Hello, little pig. What are you doing here? You are not safe on the road. Where is your home?"
+
+The young pig was happy to see the lady. He said, "I am sorry, lady. I was bored on the farm and wanted to have some fun. But I got lost and I don't know how to get back. Can you help me, please?"
+
+The lady smiled and said, "Of course, I can help you. Come with me. I will take you back to the farm. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will not run away from the farm again. The farm is your home and your family. They love you and care for you. The road is not a place for a young pig. It is dangerous and scary. Do you understand?"
+
+The young pig nodded and said, "I understand, lady. I promise I will not run away from the farm again. Thank you for helping me. You are very nice."
+
+The lady put the young pig in her car and drove him back to the farm. The young pig was happy to see his mother and his brothers and sisters. They hugged him and kissed him. They were glad he was safe.
+
+The young pig learned his lesson. He realized that the farm was the best place for him. He had fun and saw new things on the farm. He was grateful for his home and his family. He never sprang through the fence again.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see dark clouds in the sky. They hear loud noises. They feel cold wind.
+
+"Let's go home," Tom says. "There is a storm coming."
+
+"No, I want to stay," Anna says. "I like storms. They are fun."
+
+Tom is scared. He does not like storms. He thinks they are bad. He says, "Please, Anna, come with me. Storms are not fun. They are dangerous. They can hurt us."
+
+Anna does not listen. She says, "You are silly, Tom. Storms are not dangerous. They are beautiful. Look at the flashes. Look at the drops. They make the grass wet and the flowers grow."
+
+Tom shakes his head. He says, "Bye, Anna. I am going home. You should come too." He walks away.
+
+Anna stays. She plays in the storm. She does not see the big tree. She does not hear the crack. She does not feel the branch. It falls on her head. It makes her cry.
+
+Tom hears her cry. He runs back. He sees her on the ground. He sees the blood. He is very scared. He calls for help.
+
+Soon, a man comes. He is Anna's dad. He sees what happened. He is very sad. He picks up Anna. He takes her to the car. He says, "Thank you, Tom, for calling me. You are a good friend. Anna is hurt. She needs a doctor. I hope she will be okay."
+
+Tom is sad too. He says, "I am sorry, Anna. I hope you will be okay too. I wish you had listened to me. I wish you had come with me. Storms are not beautiful. They are dangerous. You should be careful."
+
+The storm goes away. The sky becomes clear. The sun comes out. Tom walks home. He learns a lesson. He thinks, "I should always listen to my friends. They care about me. They want me to be safe. I should care about them too. I should want them to be safe too."
+Tom and Mia like to play sport. They have a ball and a net. They throw the ball to each other and try to catch it. Sometimes they miss and the ball goes far away.
+
+One day, they play sport in the park. They are careful not to hit anyone with the ball. But the ball is too fast and it flies over the fence. They cannot get it back.
+
+"Oh no, our ball is gone!" Mia says. "How can we play sport now?"
+
+Tom has an idea. He sees a man on a bike. The man has a big bag. He is a deliver man. He brings things to people.
+
+"Maybe he can help us," Tom says. He runs to the man and says, "Hello, deliver man. Can you please get our ball? It is over the fence. We cannot reach it."
+
+The deliver man smiles. He says, "Sure, I can help you. I have a ladder in my bag. I can use it to climb over the fence. Wait here, I will be back soon."
+
+He takes out his ladder and puts it on the fence. He climbs over and finds the ball. He throws it back to Tom and Mia. They are very happy.
+
+"Thank you, deliver man. You are very kind," Tom says.
+
+"You are welcome, kids. Have fun with your sport. But be careful with your ball. Do not lose it again," the deliver man says.
+
+He puts his ladder back in his bag and rides away. Tom and Mia wave to him. They go back to play sport. They are more careful with their ball. They have a lot of fun.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a train set. They could make the train go fast or slow, and stop at different stations.
+
+One day, their mom told them to clean up their toys and get ready for lunch. But Tom and Lily did not want to stop playing. They said, "Mom, can we play a little more? Just five minutes, please!"
+
+Mom said, "No, you have to clean up now. If you delay, your lunch will get cold and you will be hungry. And you have to be careful, because sometimes there are earthquakes here. They can shake the ground and make things fall."
+
+Tom and Lily did not listen to mom. They thought earthquakes were rare and not scary. They kept playing with their train, making it go faster and faster. They did not notice that the ground was starting to tremble.
+
+Suddenly, there was a loud noise and a big shake. It was an earthquake! The train fell off the tracks, and some of their toys crashed to the floor. Tom and Lily were scared and ran to mom, who hugged them and said, "Are you okay? I told you to clean up and be careful. You were lucky that nothing bad happened to you or the house. But you have to learn to obey and not delay."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry and said, "We are sorry, mom. We were wrong to delay and not listen to you. We will clean up our toys and eat our lunch. And we will be careful if there is another earthquake. We love you, mom."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, Tom and Lily. I'm glad you are safe and you learned your lesson. Now let's have some lunch and then we can play something else."
+
+The moral of the story is: do not delay and listen to your parents, because they know what is best for you and they want to keep you safe. And be prepared for emergencies, because you never know when they might happen.
+Lily and Ben like to play in the park. They have a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. One day, they see a big truck in the park. The truck has a cage on the back. Inside the cage, there is a gorilla.
+
+The gorilla looks sad and scared. He does not like the cage. He wants to go back to his home in the forest. He tries to break the cage, but it is too strong. He makes loud noises and shakes the bars.
+
+Lily and Ben feel sorry for the gorilla. They want to help him. They look around and see a bunch of bananas on the truck. They have an idea. They sneak up to the truck and grab the bananas. They run to the cage and throw the bananas inside.
+
+The gorilla sees the bananas and smiles. He loves bananas. He eats them quickly and feels happy. He stops making noises and shaking the bars. He looks at Lily and Ben and winks.
+
+Lily and Ben wink back. They are glad they made the gorilla happy. They hope he will find his way back to his home soon. They think he is a great gorilla. They wave goodbye and go back to play. They manage to do a good deed.
+Tim and Sue were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pile of leaves that someone had raked. They thought it would be fun to jump in the leaves and make a mess.
+
+"Let's go, Tim!" Sue said. "It looks so fun!"
+
+"OK, Sue!" Tim said. "But we have to be polite and cover the pile again when we are done."
+
+They ran to the pile and started to jump and throw leaves in the air. They laughed and had a good time. But they did not see a sign that said "Do not touch the leaves. They are for the compost."
+
+Soon, a man came to the park. He was the gardener who had raked the leaves. He saw the mess that Tim and Sue had made. He was very angry.
+
+"Hey, you two!" he shouted. "What are you doing? You ruined my work! These leaves are not for playing. They are for the compost. They help the plants grow."
+
+Tim and Sue were scared. They did not know they had done something bad. They felt sorry.
+
+"We are sorry, sir," Tim said. "We did not see the sign. We just wanted to have fun."
+
+"We will cover the pile again," Sue said. "Please do not be mad at us."
+
+The gardener saw that they were sorry and polite. He calmed down a bit. He decided to teach them a lesson.
+
+"OK, you can cover the pile again," he said. "But first, you have to help me with something. Come with me."
+
+He took them to a corner of the park where there was a big pile of garbage. He gave them gloves and bags.
+
+"This is the result of people who are not polite and do not care about the park," he said. "They throw their trash everywhere and make the park dirty and ugly. You have to help me pick up the trash and put it in the bags. Then you can cover the leaves."
+
+Tim and Sue did not like the task. It was hard and smelly. But they knew they had to do it. They learned their lesson. They picked up the trash and put it in the bags. Then they covered the leaves.
+
+"Thank you for helping me," the gardener said. "Now you know why the leaves are important and why you should not play with them. Next time, you can play with something else in the park. There are many things to enjoy here. But you have to be polite and respect the park and the people who work here."
+
+Tim and Sue nodded. They thanked the gardener and said goodbye. They walked away, feeling a bit ashamed but also wiser. They promised to be more polite and careful in the park. They also decided to tell their friends about the compost and the trash. They hoped they could make the park a better place.
+Anna was sick. She had a big hurt in her head and a hot face. She lay in her bed and cried. Her mom was a nurse. She gave Anna some water and a pill. She said, "This will make you feel better, my sweetie. You need to rest and sleep."
+
+But Anna did not want to sleep. She wanted to play with her toys and watch TV. She was bored and angry. She threw the pill and the water on the floor. She said, "No, mom, I don't want to rest. I want to have fun. You are a bad mom. You are crazy."
+
+Mom was sad and tired. She had many sick people to help at the hospital. She did not have time to play with Anna. She said, "Anna, please don't be rude. I love you, but you need to listen to me. You are sick and you need to rest. If you don't, you will get worse. You don't want to go to the hospital, do you?"
+
+Anna did not care. She got out of her bed and ran to the living room. She grabbed her toys and threw them around. She turned on the TV and made it very loud. She laughed and screamed. She said, "I am not sick. I am fine. I am having fun. You are crazy, mom. You can't tell me what to do."
+
+Mom followed Anna and tried to stop her. She said, "Anna, stop it. You are making a mess. You are hurting yourself and me. You are being very naughty. You need to calm down and go back to your bed."
+
+But Anna did not listen. She pushed mom away and ran to the kitchen. She opened the fridge and took out the eggs. She smashed them on the floor and the walls. She said, "Look, mom, I am making art. I am a genius. You are crazy, mom. You don't understand me."
+
+Mom was scared and angry. She said, "Anna, enough. You are out of control. You are not making art. You are making a disaster. You are not a genius. You are a troublemaker. You are crazy, Anna. You need help."
+
+But Anna did not hear her. She saw a knife on the counter. She grabbed it and said, "Look, mom, I have a sword. I am a warrior. I can fight you. You are crazy, mom. You are my enemy."
+
+Mom screamed and tried to take the knife from Anna. But Anna was too fast and too strong. She stabbed mom in the chest. Mom fell to the floor and bled. She said, "Anna, why? I love you. You are my daughter. You are not crazy. You are sick. You need help."
+
+But Anna did not care. She laughed and said, "I win. I am the best. You are crazy, mom. You are dead."
+
+The end.
+Sam and Lily were playing with blocks in the living room. They built a big tower with many colors. They were very happy and proud of their tower.
+
+"Look, Mommy, look!" Sam shouted. "We made a tower!"
+
+Mommy came to see their tower. She smiled and clapped her hands. "Wow, that is an impressive tower!" she said. "You two are very clever and creative!"
+
+"Thank you, Mommy!" Lily said. "Do you want to join us and play with blocks?"
+
+Mommy nodded. "Yes, I would love to join you and play with blocks. But first, can I take a picture of your tower? It is so beautiful!"
+
+"Okay, Mommy!" Sam said. "But hurry, please. We want to make more towers!"
+
+Mommy took out her phone and snapped a picture of the tower. She showed it to Sam and Lily. They smiled and hugged her.
+
+"Okay, let's play!" Mommy said. "What do you want to make next?"
+
+"Let's make a castle!" Lily said.
+
+"Let's make a bridge!" Sam said.
+
+"Let's make both!" Mommy said.
+
+They all agreed and started to look for more blocks. They had a lot of fun playing with blocks and making different things. They were a happy family.
+Tim and Lily liked to play at the pond. They liked to watch the ducks swim and quack. One day, they saw a new duck. It was big and black and had a red beak. They had never seen a duck like that before.
+
+"Look, Lily, a new duck!" Tim said. "Let's plan to feed it some bread."
+
+"OK, Tim, but be careful. It might be mean," Lily said.
+
+They got some bread from their mom and walked to the pond. They threw some bread to the new duck. The new duck swam to the bread and ate it. Then it quacked loudly and flapped its wings.
+
+"Wow, it likes the bread!" Tim said. "Let's give it some more."
+
+They threw more bread to the new duck. The new duck ate it all and quacked again. Then it swam to the other ducks and chased them away. It wanted all the bread for itself.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Lily said. "That's not nice. You have to share with the other ducks."
+
+The new duck did not listen. It kept chasing the other ducks and snapping at them. It was very greedy and rude.
+
+"Tim, I don't like this new duck. It's unknown and mean. Let's go away," Lily said.
+
+"OK, Lily, you're right. This new duck is not a good friend. Let's go play somewhere else," Tim said.
+
+They left the pond and went to the playground. They played with their friends and had fun. They learned that unknown things are not always good. They also learned that sharing is better than being greedy. They decided to not feed the new duck anymore. They hoped that the new duck would learn to be nice too.
+Ben and Mia were playing outside when they saw dark clouds in the sky. They heard a loud noise like a drum. It was thunder.
+
+"Let's go inside, Ben. It will rain soon," Mia said.
+
+"No, I want to play more. It is fun," Ben said.
+
+They saw a bright flash in the sky. It was lightning. It made a scary sound like a snake.
+
+"Ben, look! Lightning! It is dangerous. We have to go inside now," Mia said.
+
+Ben was scared too. He ran after Mia to the house. They reached the door and opened it.
+
+"Mom, we are here! There was lightning and thunder outside. It was bitter," Ben said.
+
+Mom hugged them and gave them warm milk and cookies.
+
+"I'm glad you are safe, my loves. Lightning and thunder are not bitter. They are just part of nature. Sometimes they make noise and light, but they can't hurt you if you are inside," Mom said.
+
+Ben and Mia felt better. They drank their milk and ate their cookies. They watched the rain from the window. They saw a rainbow in the sky. It was beautiful. They smiled and hugged Mom. They were happy.
+Lily was a big girl who liked to count everything. She counted her toys, her books, her fingers and toes. She counted the stars at night and the flowers in the garden. She counted the cars on the road and the birds in the sky. She was very good at counting and very proud of it.
+
+One day, Lily had to go to the hospital. She was not sick, but she had to get a check-up. She was a little scared, but she wanted to be brave and independent. She told her mom and dad that she could go by herself. They said no, they had to go with her. Lily was not happy, but she agreed.
+
+At the hospital, Lily saw many people and machines. She counted them in her head. She counted the nurses, the doctors, the beds, the chairs, the doors, the windows. She counted the needles, the tubes, the wires, the buttons, the lights. She counted until she reached one hundred. She was very impressed.
+
+Then, a nice lady came to see her. She said she was a nurse and she was going to take her to a room. She asked Lily if she liked to count. Lily nodded and smiled. The nurse said she liked to count too. She said they could count together. Lily liked that idea.
+
+The nurse took Lily to a room with a big machine. She said it was a scanner and it was going to take a picture of her head. She said it was not going to hurt, but it was going to make some noises. She said Lily had to lie still and listen to the noises. She said she would count the noises with her. Lily said okay.
+
+The nurse helped Lily lie down on a table. She put a helmet on her head and a button in her hand. She said the helmet was to keep her head safe and the button was to talk to her. She said she was going to be in another room, but she could hear her and see her. She said she would start the machine and count the noises. She said Lily could count with her or just listen. She said she would be back soon.
+
+Lily heard the machine start. It made a loud beep. She heard the nurse say one. She pressed the button and said one too. She heard another beep. She heard the nurse say two. She pressed the button and said two too. She heard more beeps. She heard the nurse count. She pressed the button and counted with her. She counted until she reached ten. She was very happy.
+
+The machine stopped. The nurse came back. She said Lily did a great job. She said the picture of her head was very good. She said Lily was very smart and very independent. She said she was proud of her. She gave her a sticker and a hug. Lily said thank you. She said she liked the nurse and the machine. She said she liked to count. She said she was not scared anymore. She was very happy.
+Lila and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the dirt and grass. But one day, Lila's car broke. The wheel came off and the car could not move.
+
+"Oh no, my car is broken!" Lila cried. "How can I fix it?"
+
+Ben looked at the car and thought hard. He was a thoughtful boy who liked to help his friends. He remembered that his dad had a box of tools in the garage. He said, "Maybe we can repair it with some tools. Come on, let's go and see."
+
+They ran to the garage and found the box of tools. Ben searched for something that could fix the wheel. He found a screwdriver, a hammer, and some nails. He also found a shiny rock that sparkled in the sun.
+
+"What is this?" he asked, holding the rock.
+
+Lila looked at it and said, "I think it is a mineral. It is very pretty. Can we use it for the car?"
+
+Ben nodded. He had an idea. He used the screwdriver to make a hole in the wheel. Then he used the hammer and a nail to attach the wheel to the car. He also used the hammer to make a dent in the mineral. He put the mineral in the dent and used another nail to secure it.
+
+"Look, we repaired your car!" he said, showing Lila. "And we made it more beautiful with the mineral. It is like a jewel."
+
+Lila smiled and hugged Ben. She was very happy. She said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a very good friend. You are very thoughtful and clever. Let's go and play with our cars again."
+
+They ran back to the garden and played with their cars. They made them zoom and crash and shine in the sun. They had a lot of fun.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a snake on the grass. Tom wants to touch it. Sam says no.
+
+"Snakes are bad. They can bite you. We should go away," Sam says.
+
+But Tom does not listen. He says snakes are good. They are pretty and soft. He wants to be friends with the snake. He moves closer to it.
+
+"Tom, stop! You are silly. The snake does not want to be your friend. It is angry. It will hurt you," Sam says.
+
+But Tom does not agree. He says Sam is scared. He is brave. He reaches out his hand to the snake. The snake hisses and strikes. It bites Tom's finger. Tom cries out loud. He drops the snake and runs to Sam.
+
+"Sam, help me! The snake bit me. It hurts. You were right. I was wrong. I am sorry," Tom says.
+
+Sam hugs Tom and says it is okay. He takes Tom to the nurse. The nurse cleans Tom's finger and puts a bandage on it. She says Tom is lucky. The snake is not poisonous. He will be fine. Tom is grateful. He thanks the nurse and Sam. He says he will never touch a snake again. He says he will listen to Sam next time. Sam smiles and says he is glad. He says he is still Tom's friend. They go back to the park and play with other toys. They do not see the snake anymore. They are happy.
+Jen and Tom were friends who liked to play in the park. They had a ball that they could roll to each other and catch. They had fun with the ball and laughed a lot.
+
+One day, they saw a big pile of waste near the park. It was dirty and smelly and had many things in it. Jen and Tom were curious and wanted to see what was in the waste. They left their ball on the grass and went to the waste.
+
+They found some cans and bottles and papers and clothes and toys in the waste. They started to play with them and make noises. They forgot about their ball and the park.
+
+"Look, I found a hat!" Jen said, putting a dirty hat on her head.
+
+"Look, I found a car!" Tom said, holding a broken car in his hand.
+
+They did not see the dog that came to the park. The dog was hungry and saw the ball on the grass. The dog ran to the ball and bit it. The ball popped and made a loud sound. The dog was scared and ran away with the ball in his mouth.
+
+Jen and Tom heard the sound and turned around. They saw the dog running away with their ball. They dropped the things they had and ran after the dog. They shouted and cried.
+
+"Stop, dog, stop! Give us our ball back!" Jen said.
+
+"That's our ball! We want our ball!" Tom said.
+
+But the dog was faster and did not stop. He ran out of the park and into the street. Jen and Tom followed him and did not look where they were going. They did not see the car that was coming. The car hit them and they fell down. They were hurt and bleeding.
+
+The driver of the car stopped and got out. He saw Jen and Tom on the ground and the dog with the ball. He was shocked and sad. He called for help and tried to help them.
+
+"Oh no, oh no, what have I done?" he said.
+
+Jen and Tom did not play in the park anymore. They did not roll their ball anymore. They did not laugh anymore. They were gone. The dog was gone too. The ball was gone too. The waste was still there. It was a bad ending.
+Tim and Liz are twins. They like to play with their toys in the yard. One day, they find a shiny thing in the dirt. It is round and hard and has a face on it.
+
+"Look, Liz, a copper!" Tim says. He shows Liz the shiny thing.
+
+"What is a copper?" Liz asks.
+
+"It is money. You can buy things with it. Like candy or ice cream," Tim says.
+
+"Wow, can we buy candy or ice cream with this copper?" Liz says.
+
+"Maybe. But we have to ask Mom first," Tim says.
+
+They run to the house with the copper. They see Mom in the kitchen. She is making a cake. She has a big white bowl and a big white spoon. She is mixing something in the bowl.
+
+"Mom, Mom, look what we found!" Tim says. He holds up the copper.
+
+"Where did you get that?" Mom asks.
+
+"We found it in the yard. It is a copper. It is money. Can we buy candy or ice cream with it?" Liz says.
+
+Mom looks at the copper. She sees the face on it. She sees the date on it. She gasps. She drops the bowl and the spoon. They make a loud noise. The cake mix spills on the floor.
+
+"Mom, what's wrong?" Tim asks.
+
+"Mom, are you okay?" Liz asks.
+
+Mom picks up the copper. She holds it in her hand. She looks at Tim and Liz. She smiles. She hugs them.
+
+"Kids, you found a very special copper. This is not just any copper. This is a very old copper. It is worth a lot of money. More than candy or ice cream. More than a hundred coppers," Mom says.
+
+"Really? How much?" Tim asks.
+
+"Maybe a thousand coppers. Maybe more. We have to take it to a place where they know about old things. They will tell us how much it is worth," Mom says.
+
+"Wow, that's amazing!" Liz says.
+
+"Can we still buy candy or ice cream?" Tim asks.
+
+"Of course, you can. You can buy whatever you want. You are very lucky kids. You found a treasure," Mom says.
+
+They all laugh and hug. They are very happy. They do not panic. They do not care about the cake. They have a copper. A very special copper. A very old copper. A very shiny copper.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to ride her bike outside. One day, she saw a thing on the ground. It was a little bird with a broken wing. Lily felt miserable for the bird. She picked it up gently and took it home. 
+
+Lily's mom helped her take care of the bird. They gave it food and water and made a cozy bed for it. Lily was happy that the bird was safe and not alone anymore. Even though she couldn't ride her bike that day, she felt happy knowing she did something good.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She liked to wear pretty dresses and loved to eat yummy food. One day, Lily's mom asked her what style of dress she wanted to wear to her friend's party. Lily thought for a moment and said, "I want to wear a pink dress, mommy!" Her mom smiled and said, "That's a good answer, Lily. You will look so pretty in your pink dress." 
+
+At the party, Lily saw a big cake on the table. It looked so tasty! She asked her mom if she could have a piece. Her mom said yes and gave her a slice. Lily took a bite and said, "Mmm, this cake is so tasty!" Her mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you like it, Lily." 
+
+After the party, Lily went to bed feeling happy. She dreamed about wearing pretty dresses and eating tasty treats. The end.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play with her toys, especially her dolls. One day, Lily's mom came into her room and suggested they go outside to play. Lily thought that was a great idea and jumped up from her bed. 
+
+As they were walking outside, Lily's mom pointed to a beautiful flower in the garden. Lily thought it was very pretty and wanted to pick it, but her mom told her it was better to leave it there for others to enjoy.

+
+At the park, Timmy saw Billy playing with his new toy. Timmy asked Billy again if he could play with it, but Billy said no again. Timmy felt angry and frustrated. He wanted to take the toy and play with it himself. But he knew that was not right.

+
+Mom was sad. She said, "Sara, you can't quit helping in the kitchen. You are part of the family, and we all help each other. The vegetables are good for you. They make you strong and healthy. They are not bitter if you try them with some dressing. Why don't you give them a chance?"

+
+"Yuck! This is awful! How can this become a cake?" Ben said.
+
+Sara laughed. "That's because you tasted the wrong thing. You tasted the baking powder. It makes the cake rise, but it is not sweet. You have to taste the chocolate. It is the best part," she said.

+
+"Wow, this is much better. Can I have some more?" Ben said.

+
+They started to swap their bowls, but they did not see that their dog was under the table. He smelled the soup and jumped up. He knocked over the bowls and spilled the soup all over Tom and Lily. They screamed and got wet and sticky. Mom heard the noise and came back. She saw the mess and the dog licking the soup. She was angry and said, "What are you doing? You are very foolish. Now you have no soup and no pizza or cookies or ice cream. You have to clean up and go to your room."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry and ashamed. They said sorry to mom and helped her clean up. They went to their room and cried. They wished they had eaten their broccoli soup. They learned their lesson and never tried to switch their bowls again.

+The big boy laughs and says, "No, it's mine. You can't tell me what to do. I'm bigger and stronger than you."
+
+The girl says, "That's not fair. You can't take things that are not yours. How would you like it if I took your shirt?"
+
+The big boy says, "You can't do that. That's my shirt."
+
+The girl says, "Well, that's their ball. How about we play a game? If you win, you can keep the ball. If I win, you give it back to them."
+
+The big boy says, "OK, fine. What game?"
+
+The girl says, "Soccer. We each have one goal. The first one to score three times wins."
+
+The big boy says, "Easy. I'm good at soccer. You're just a girl."
+
+The girl says, "We'll see about that. Let's play."
+
+They play soccer. The big boy is fast and strong, but the girl is smart and skillful. She dodges his kicks and passes the ball to Ben and Mia. They help her score. Soon, the girl has scored three times and the big boy has scored none.
+
+The girl says, "I win. You lose. Give the ball back to Ben and Mia."
+

+Ben and Mia are happy and grateful. They hug the girl and say, "Thank you. You are very friendly and brave. You saved our ball."
+
+The girl says, "You're welcome. You are very friendly and nice. You shared your ball. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Ben and Mia say, "Yes, we do. You are our new friend."
+
+They play soccer together. They have fun kicking and running. They smile and laugh.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toy rockets in the garden. They liked to pretend they were astronauts and explore different planets. Tom had a red rocket and Lily had a blue one.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a new planet!" Tom said, pointing to a big ball of mud. "It is brown and soft and has worms in it. Let's land there and see what we can find."
+
+Lily was not sure. She did not like mud or worms. She thought they were yucky and scary. She looked at Tom's rocket and saw that it was covered in mud too. She did not want her rocket to get dirty.
+
+"No, Tom, I don't want to go there. That planet is not nice. It is yucky and scary. And your rocket is dirty. You need to wash it. Let's go to a different planet. A clean and pretty one. Like that one." She pointed to a flower pot with colorful flowers.
+
+Tom frowned. He did not think the mud planet was yucky or scary. He thought it was fun and exciting. He did not want to wash his rocket. He liked it dirty. He did not want to go to the flower pot. He thought it was boring and plain.
+
+"No, Lily, I don't want to go there. That planet is not fun. It is boring and plain. And my rocket is not dirty. It is cool. I don't need to wash it. Let's stay here and dig for worms. They are fun and exciting."
+
+Tom and Lily could not agree. They started to argue. They raised their voices and pulled their rockets. They did not notice that their mom was watching them from the window.
+
+"Tom! Lily! Stop that right now!" Mom said, coming out of the house. "You are making too much noise and fighting over silly things. You need to share and play nicely. And you both need to wash your rockets. They are dirty and messy. Come on, let's go inside and wash them in the sink. Then you can have a snack and read a book about planets. Maybe you will learn something new and interesting."
+
+Tom and Lily stopped arguing. They looked at their mom and then at each other. They felt a little ashamed and sorry. They nodded and followed their mom inside. They washed their rockets in the sink and dried them with a towel. They had a snack and read a book about planets. They learned that there were many different kinds of planets in the space. Some were big and some were small. Some were hot and some were cold. Some were rocky and some were gassy. Some had rings and some had moons. Some had life and some did not.
+
+Tom and Lily were amazed and curious. They decided to play with their rockets again. But this time, they did not fight. They agreed to take turns and explore different planets. They pretended to see amazing things and have fun adventures. They were not fearful or bored. They were happy and brave.
+Anna and Ben are on the same team. They like to play soccer with their friends. Today, they have a big game against another team. They are very busy getting ready.
+
+"Are you excited, Ben?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, I am. I want to score a goal," Ben says.
+
+"Me too. But we have to work together, right?" Anna says.
+
+"Right. We are a team. We help each other," Ben says.
+
+They smile and high-five. Then they run to the field with their coach and their teammates.
+
+The game starts. Anna and Ben run fast and pass the ball. They try to avoid the other team. They have fun and cheer for each other.
+
+Soon, Ben sees a chance. He gets the ball and kicks it hard. It flies into the net. Goal!
+
+"Yay, Ben! You did it!" Anna shouts.
+
+"Thanks, Anna! You helped me!" Ben shouts back.
+
+They hug and smile. Their team is happy. They win the game.
+
+They go back to their coach and their teammates. They celebrate and say good job. They are proud of themselves and their team. They are not busy anymore. They are just happy.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a pretty caterpillar on a leaf. It was green and yellow and had many legs.
+
+"Look, a caterpillar!" Anna said. "Can we keep it?"
+
+Ben nodded. "Yes, let's store it in a jar. We can give it some leaves and water."
+
+They ran inside and found a jar. They put the caterpillar inside and made some holes on the lid. They put the jar on the windowsill and watched the caterpillar.
+
+The next day, they saw something different. The caterpillar was not moving. It was wrapped in a brown cocoon.
+
+"What happened to the caterpillar?" Ben asked. "Is it sick?"
+
+Anna shook her head. "No, it is not sick. It is changing. It will become a butterfly."
+
+"A butterfly?" Ben said. "How do you know?"
+
+Anna smiled. "I read it in a book. We have to wait and see. It will be a surprise."
+
+They waited and waited. Every day, they checked the jar. They wondered what kind of butterfly the caterpillar would be.
+
+One morning, they saw something amazing. The cocoon was broken. A beautiful butterfly was inside the jar. It had wings of many colors. It fluttered and tapped on the lid.
+
+"Wow, look at the butterfly!" Anna said. "It is so pretty!"
+
+Ben agreed. "It is the prettiest butterfly I ever saw. Can we keep it?"
+
+Anna shook her head. "No, we can't keep it. It needs to fly and find flowers. We have to let it go."
+
+They took the jar outside and opened the lid. The butterfly flew out and landed on Anna's hand. It waved its wings and thanked them.
+
+"Thank you for storing me and taking care of me," the butterfly said. "You are very kind."
+
+Anna and Ben smiled. They said goodbye to the butterfly and watched it fly away. They felt happy and proud. They had helped a caterpillar become a butterfly.
+Ben and Mia were playing outside in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very happy.
+
+Then a mean boy came by. He kicked the snowman and broke his nose. He laughed and said, "Your snowman is ugly and stupid. You are ugly and stupid too. I don't like you."
+
+Ben and Mia were very sad and angry. They wanted to make the mean boy go away. They picked up some snowballs and threw them at him. The mean boy dodged and threw some back. They had a snowball fight.
+
+The mean boy was bigger and faster. He hit Ben and Mia with many snowballs. They were cold and wet and hurt. They felt miserable. They wished they had a friend to help them.
+
+Then they heard a loud bark. It was their dog, Rex. He had escaped from the house and ran to them. He saw the mean boy and growled. He jumped on him and knocked him down. He bit his leg and made him scream.
+
+The mean boy was scared and sorry. He begged Rex to stop. He said, "Please, please, don't hurt me. I'm sorry for what I did. I'll pay you any price. Just let me go."
+
+Ben and Mia called Rex off. They looked at the mean boy and said, "You are a bad boy. You should not be mean to others. You should say sorry to our snowman and to us. And you should give us your hat and scarf as a price for what you did."
+
+The mean boy nodded and did what they said. He gave them his hat and scarf and said sorry. He ran away, limping and crying. He did not come back.
+
+Ben and Mia put the hat and scarf on their snowman. They fixed his nose and eyes. They hugged Rex and thanked him. They were very happy.
+
+They played some more in the snow. They made a snow fort and a snow angel. They had fun. They did not freeze. They were not miserable. They were friends.
+Jill and Ben liked to play with their toys on the big rug in the living room. They had many toys, but their favorite was the train set. They liked to make long tracks and run the trains around them.
+
+One day, they wanted to make the biggest track ever. They used all the pieces they had and made a loop that went around the whole rug. They were very happy and proud of their work.
+
+But then, Mom came in with a big box. She said it was a present for Grandma, who was coming to visit. She said the box was fragile and they had to be careful with it. She put the box on the rug, next to the track.
+
+Jill and Ben were curious. They wanted to see what was in the box. They tried to lift it, but it was too heavy. They tried to slide it, but it was too big. They tried to fit it between the track and the wall, but it was too wide.
+
+They pushed and pulled, but the box did not move. They did not notice that they were bending and breaking the track. They did not hear the trains falling and crashing. They did not see Mom coming back.
+
+Mom was very angry. She saw the mess they had made. She saw the broken track and the trains. She saw the box on the rug. She saw the fragile label on the box.
+
+She shouted at Jill and Ben. She told them they were naughty and careless. She told them they had ruined their toys and Grandma's present. She told them they had to clean up and go to their room.
+
+Jill and Ben were very sad. They did not mean to do anything bad. They just wanted to see the box. They did not know it was fragile. They did not know it did not fit on the rug. They wished they had left it alone.
+Sara is a girl who likes to play with animals. She has a dog, a cat and a fish at home. She loves them very much. One day, she goes to visit her aunt, who works in a lab. A lab is a place where people do experiments and learn new things.
+
+In the lab, Sara sees many things that she does not know. She sees big machines, glass bottles, and strange shapes. She also sees some animals in cages. She feels sad for them. She wants to play with them and make them happy.
+
+She sees a cute lab in one of the cages. A lab is a kind of dog that is big and has yellow fur. Sara likes labs. She thinks they are friendly and smart. She goes to the cage and opens the door. The lab wags its tail and licks her face. Sara giggles and hugs the lab.
+
+"Hello, lab," she says. "Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The lab barks and nods. It follows Sara around the lab. Sara shows the lab the machines, the bottles, and the shapes. She tells the lab what they are and what they do. The lab listens and sniffs. It is curious and happy.
+
+Sara's aunt sees Sara and the lab. She is surprised and angry. She runs to them and scolds Sara.
+
+"Sara, what are you doing?" she says. "You can't take the lab out of the cage. It is part of an experiment. It is not a toy. You have to put it back right now."
+
+Sara feels scared and sad. She does not want to put the lab back. She wants to keep it and take it home. She thinks the lab is not happy in the cage. She thinks the lab is her friend.
+
+"Please, auntie," she says. "Can I have the lab? It is cute and nice. It likes me and I like it. It does not want to be in the cage. It wants to be with me."
+
+Sara's aunt sighs and shakes her head. She knows Sara loves animals. She knows Sara does not understand the lab's situation. She knows Sara does not mean to cause trouble. She decides to be kind and patient.
+
+"Sara, I know you love the lab," she says. "But you can't have it. The lab is not a normal dog. It is a special dog. It has a chip in its brain that makes it smarter and faster. We are studying the lab to learn how to help other dogs and people. The lab is helping us to do good things. It is not unhappy in the cage. It has food, water, toys, and friends. It is safe and comfortable. It is not lonely or bored. It is part of a team."
+
+Sara listens to her aunt. She tries to understand. She looks at the lab. The lab looks at her. It wags its tail and licks her hand. It seems to say thank you and goodbye.
+
+Sara feels a little better. She still likes the lab. She still wants to be its friend. But she also wants the lab to do good things. She wants the lab to be part of a team. She wants the lab to be happy.
+
+She hugs the lab and kisses its nose. She says, "I love you, lab. You are cute and smart. You are helping people and dogs. You are a good dog. I am proud of you. I will miss you. But I will let you go. Goodbye, lab."
+
+She puts the lab back in the cage. She closes the door. She waves to the lab. The lab barks and waves back. It seems to say, "I love you, Sara. You are cute and kind. You are my friend. I will miss you. But I will be okay. Goodbye, Sara."
+
+Sara smiles and wipes her tears. She holds her aunt's hand. She says, "Thank you, auntie. You are smart and nice. You are teaching me new things. You are doing good things. I am sorry for being naughty. I will be good. Can we go home now?"
+
+Sara's aunt smiles and hugs her. She says, "You're welcome, Sara. You are sweet and brave. You are learning new things. You are doing good things. I am not mad at you. I am proud of you. Yes, we can go home now."
+
+They leave the lab. They go to the car. They drive home. Sara thinks about the lab. She hopes it is happy. She hopes it will remember her. She hopes they will meet again. She falls asleep. She dreams of the lab. The lab dreams of her. They are friends. The end.
+Tom is a mailman. He likes to deliver letters and packages to people. He has a big blue truck with many boxes inside. He drives to different houses and puts the mail in the mailboxes or on the porches.
+
+One day, he has a special package for Anna. Anna is a little girl who lives in a yellow house with a red door. Tom knows that Anna likes to play under the big tree in her yard. He thinks she will be happy to get the package.
+
+He parks his truck and walks to the yellow house. He sees Anna under the tree. She is playing with her dolls and her teddy bear. She looks up and sees Tom.
+
+"Hi, Tom!" she says. "Do you have something for me?"
+
+"Hi, Anna!" Tom says. "Yes, I do. I have a great package for you. It is from your grandma. She sent you a gift for your birthday."
+
+"Wow!" Anna says. "Can I open it?"
+
+"Sure, you can. Here you go." Tom hands her the package. It is big and wrapped in colorful paper. Anna thanks Tom and runs to the tree. She sits under the shade and tears the paper. She finds a beautiful dress inside. It is pink and has flowers on it. She loves it.
+
+"Thank you, grandma!" she says. "Thank you, Tom!"
+
+"You're welcome, Anna!" Tom says. "Happy birthday! I have to go now. I have more mail to deliver. Have a nice day!"

+Tom waves and gets back in his truck. He drives away with a smile. He is glad he could deliver a great package to Anna. He likes his job. He likes to make people happy.
+Tim and Lily were friends who liked to play in the park. They loved to swing on the big swings and feel the wind in their hair. One day, they saw a new swing that looked like a jungle. It had green ropes and leaves and a big monkey on top.
+
+"Wow, look at that swing!" Tim said. "Let's go and try it!"
+
+They ran to the jungle swing and climbed on it. They felt like they were in a real jungle, swinging from tree to tree. They laughed and shouted with joy.
+
+But then, a big boy came and saw them. He wanted to swing on the jungle swing too. He was not modest. He was rude and mean.
+
+"Hey, get off my swing!" he yelled. "This is mine!"
+
+He pushed Tim and Lily off the swing and took their place. He swung hard and fast, making the monkey squeak.
+
+Tim and Lily were sad and angry. They did not like the big boy. They wanted their swing back.
+
+They looked at each other and had an idea. They waited until the big boy swung high, then they pulled the ropes and leaves. The jungle swing stopped and the big boy fell off. He landed on the ground with a thud.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" he cried. "That hurt!"
+
+Tim and Lily got back on the swing and smiled. They swung gently and happily, making the monkey smile too.
+
+"Sorry, big boy," Lily said. "But this is our swing. You should be modest and share."
+
+The big boy got up and ran away. He did not want to play with them anymore. He learned his lesson.
+
+Tim and Lily played on the jungle swing until it was time to go home. They were happy and proud. They were good friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and smell them. Lily saw a big pink flower that was very pretty. She wanted to pick it and give it to Ben.
+
+"Look, Ben, look at this flower!" she said. "It is so big and pink. It bloomed just for us!"
+
+Ben came over and saw the flower. He liked it too. He reached out his hand to touch it. But he did not see the thorn on the stem. The thorn poked his finger and made it bleed.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" he cried. "It hurts, it hurts!"
+
+Lily was scared. She did not know what to do. She ran to the house and got a bandage. She came back and wrapped it around Ben's finger.
+
+"Does it feel better?" she asked.
+
+Ben shook his head. He was still crying. The bandage was not enough. He needed his mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, help!" he shouted.
+
+Mom heard him and came out. She saw the blood and the bandage. She was worried.
+
+"What happened, Ben? What did you do?" she asked.
+
+Ben pointed at the flower. "The flower hurt me. It has a thorn. It is a bad flower. It is smelly."
+
+Mom looked at the flower. She sighed. It was not a flower. It was a weed. A big, pink, smelly weed.
+
+"Oh, Ben, that is not a flower. That is a weed. It does not bloom for us. It grows where it should not. It has thorns that can hurt you. You should not touch it."
+
+She took Ben inside and cleaned his wound. She put a new bandage on it and gave him a hug and a kiss.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. I know it hurts. But it will heal soon. Next time, be careful what you pick in the garden. Not everything that looks pretty is good for you."
+
+Lily followed them inside. She felt sad. She wanted to give Ben a nice flower. But she gave him a bad weed. She threw the weed away. She did not like it anymore. She wished she could find a real flower for Ben. A flower that would make him happy. A flower that would not hurt him.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play chess. Chess was a game with black and white pieces that moved on a board with squares. Tom had a gray cat named Smokey who liked to watch them play.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia were playing chess at Tom's house. Tom was winning and Mia was sad. She wanted to win too. She saw Smokey sitting on the couch and had an idea.
+
+"Mia, do you want to pet Smokey?" she asked Tom. "He is very soft and nice."
+
+"Sure, I like Smokey," Tom said. He left his chess pieces and went to the couch. He picked up Smokey and gave him a hug.
+
+Mia smiled and quickly moved some of Tom's pieces. She made a checkmate and said, "I win, I win!"
+
+Tom looked at the board and saw that Mia had cheated. He was angry and hurt. He squeezed Smokey too hard and Smokey scratched him. Tom let go of Smokey and cried.
+
+"Mia, that was not fair! You moved my pieces when I was not looking!" he shouted.
+
+Mia felt sorry and ashamed. She knew she had done a bad thing. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I was jealous and wanted to win. But that was wrong. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Tom looked at Mia and saw that she was sincere. He said, "I forgive you, Mia. But don't do that again. Chess is a game of rules and respect. And don't hurt Smokey. He is my friend too."
+
+Mia nodded and hugged Tom. She said, "I'm sorry, Smokey. You are a good cat. Can I pet you?"
+
+Smokey meowed and licked Mia's hand. He was not mad anymore. He liked Tom and Mia. They were his friends too.
+
+They put the chess pieces back and played another game. This time, they played fair and had fun. They learned a lesson about honesty and kindness. And Smokey watched them with his gray eyes. He was happy.
+Tom and Ann are friends. They like to play in the field near their house. The field has many flowers and bugs and birds. Tom and Ann like to make soup with the flowers and bugs and water. They use a big pot and a big spoon to stir the soup.
+
+One day, they find a new flower in the field. It is red and yellow and smells nice. Tom and Ann think it will make their soup better. They pick the flower and put it in the pot. They stir the soup and taste it.
+
+"Yum, this is good soup!" Tom says.
+
+"Let me try!" Ann says. She takes a sip of the soup.
+
+But the flower is not a good flower. It is a bad flower. It makes Tom and Ann sick. They feel dizzy and hot and their tummies hurt. They cry and call for help.
+
+"Help, help, we are sick!" Tom and Ann shout.
+
+But no one hears them. The field is too far from their house. The sun is too bright and the birds are too loud. Tom and Ann lie down on the grass and close their eyes. They wish they did not put the bad flower in their soup. They wish they knew which flowers are good and which flowers are bad. They wish they had a useful book to tell them. But they do not have a book. They only have a pot and a spoon and a bad soup. And they are very sick. The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the attic. They liked to pretend they were explorers and find old things. Lily found a big box with a lock on it. She wanted to open it and see what was inside.
+
+"Ben, look at this! Maybe there is treasure in here!" she said.
+
+Ben came over and looked at the box. He saw a key hanging on the wall. He reached for it, but Lily pinched his hand.
+
+"Ow! Lily, that hurt! Why did you do that?" he asked.
+
+"It's my box, Ben. I found it first. You can't have it!" Lily said.
+
+Ben was frustrated. He thought Lily was being mean and selfish. He wanted to share the box with her, but she wouldn't let him. He decided to play a trick on her. He saw a white sheet on the floor. He picked it up and wrapped it around himself. He made a scary noise and jumped out at Lily.
+
+"Boo! I'm a ghost! I'm going to take your box!" he said.
+
+Lily screamed. She was scared of ghosts. She dropped the box and ran away. Ben laughed. He thought he was funny. He opened the box and saw what was inside. It was full of old books and photos. He felt bored. He wished he had someone to look at them with.
+
+He heard Lily crying downstairs. He felt sorry. He realized he was not nice to her. He took the box and the key and went to find her. He gave her a hug and said he was sorry.
+
+"Lily, I'm sorry I scared you. It was a bad joke. You can have the box. I don't want it. I want to play with you," he said.
+
+Lily stopped crying. She looked at Ben and smiled. She said she was sorry too.
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry I pinched you. It was a bad thing to do. You can have the box too. I want to share it with you," she said.
+
+They opened the box together and looked at the old things. They found stories and pictures of their grandparents and great-grandparents. They learned about their family and had fun. They were happy.
+
+The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. Don't be mean or selfish. Don't play scary tricks on your friends. Say sorry when you do something wrong. Be kind and have fun.
+Ben and Mia were friends who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big ball that bounced high. They took turns to throw the ball and catch it, and had a lot of fun.
+
+One day, a new boy came to their street. His name was Leo, and he had a unique toy. It was a small robot that could talk and move. Ben and Mia were curious and wanted to see the robot, but Leo was not friendly. He said, "This is my toy, and you can't touch it. It is too special for you."
+
+Ben and Mia felt sad and angry. They thought Leo was mean and rude. They went back to their ball and tried to play, but they could not enjoy it anymore. They kept looking at the robot and wishing they had one too.
+
+Then, something bad happened. A big dog ran into the street and saw the robot. The dog thought it was a bone and grabbed it with its mouth. It ran away, chewing the robot and making it break. Leo cried and chased the dog, but he could not catch it.
+
+Ben and Mia saw what happened and felt sorry for Leo. They ran to him and said, "We are sorry about your toy. It was very unique and cool. Do you want to play with us and our ball? We can share it with you."
+
+Leo looked at them and wiped his tears. He realized he had been selfish and unkind. He said, "Thank you for being nice to me. I was wrong to keep my toy to myself. I would like to play with you and your ball. Maybe we can be friends."
+
+Ben and Mia smiled and nodded. They gave Leo their ball and taught him how to throw and catch it. They played together and had a lot of fun. They learned that sharing is caring, and that friendship is more valuable than any toy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together. Today, they are playing dress-up. They have many clothes and hats and shoes.
+
+Lily finds a tie. It is red and blue and shiny. She likes the tie. She puts it around her neck. She says, "Look, Ben, I have a tie. I am a teacher. Do you want to be my student?"
+
+Ben nods. He likes to play with Lily. He says, "Yes, Lily, I want to be your student. What do you teach?"
+
+Lily thinks. She says, "I teach math. Math is fun. Do you know how to count?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, Lily, I know how to count. I can count to ten. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten."
+
+Lily claps. She says, "Wow, Ben, you are amazing. You can count to ten. You are a smart student. Do you want a sticker?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, Lily, I want a sticker. Stickers are pretty. Can I have a star sticker?"
+
+Lily smiles. She says, "Yes, Ben, you can have a star sticker. Here you go. You are a star student. I am a happy teacher."
+
+They hug. They are happy. They love to play dress-up. They have an amazing tie.
+Tim and Sam were brothers. They liked to play in the woods behind their house. They saw many trees, birds and bugs. One day, they found a big pine tree. It was taller and greener than the other trees.
+
+"Wow, look at this pine!" Tim said. "It is so big and pretty. Can we climb it?"
+
+"I don't know," Sam said. "It looks too high and hard. Maybe we can find another tree to climb."
+
+But Tim did not listen. He wanted to climb the big pine. He grabbed a branch and pulled himself up. He smiled and said, "See, it is not so hard. Come on, Sam, join me!"
+
+Sam was scared, but he did not want to be left behind. He followed Tim and climbed the big pine. They went higher and higher, until they could see the whole woods and the sky. They felt happy and proud.
+
+But then, they heard a loud crack. The branch they were sitting on broke. They screamed and fell. They landed on the ground with a thud. They were hurt and scared. They cried and called for help.
+
+Their mom heard them and ran to the woods. She saw them lying on the ground, next to the big pine. She was shocked and worried. She hugged them and said, "Oh, my boys, what have you done? You should not climb such a big pine. It is too dangerous. You could have been killed!"
+
+She took them to the house and cleaned their wounds. She gave them some cookies and milk. She told them to be more careful and listen to her. She said, "I love you, but you have to be smart. The big pine is not a toy. It is a tree. It can end your life if you are not careful."
+
+Tim and Sam felt sorry and ashamed. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We were foolish and curious. We will not climb the big pine again. We love you, too."
+
+They learned their lesson. They never climbed the big pine again. They played in the woods, but they stayed away from the big pine. They respected the tree and its power. They knew it could end their life, but it could also give them life. It gave them shade, air and beauty. They thanked the big pine for being there. They were happy and safe.
+Tim and Mia are playing with blocks. They like to build towers and houses and cars. Tim has a big red block. He wants to attach a cone on top of it. He thinks it will look like a rocket.
+
+"Look, Mia, I have a rocket!" he says, holding up his block and cone.
+
+Mia looks at his rocket. She thinks it is nice, but she has a better idea. She has a small yellow block. She wants to attach a cone on top of it. She thinks it will look like a hat.
+
+"Look, Tim, I have a hat!" she says, holding up her block and cone.
+
+Tim looks at her hat. He thinks it is silly, but he has a fun idea. He takes his rocket and puts it on his head. He pretends to fly around the room.
+
+"Zoom, zoom, zoom!" he says, making loud noises.
+
+Mia laughs. She takes her hat and puts it on her head. She pretends to dance around the room.
+
+"La, la, la!" she says, singing loud songs.
+
+Tim and Mia have a lot of fun with their blocks and cones. They make loud sounds and have a good time. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom are playing with paper. They cut and fold and glue the paper to make different things. Lily makes a paper hat and puts it on her head. Tom makes a paper boat and pretends to sail it on the floor.
+
+"Look at my boat!" Tom says. "It can go fast and far on the water."
+
+"Look at my hat!" Lily says. "It is pretty and colorful and keeps the sun away."
+
+They show each other their paper things and smile.
+
+Then Lily has an idea. She takes Tom's boat and puts it on her head.
+
+"Look at me!" Lily says. "I have a boat hat!"
+
+Tom does not like Lily's idea. He wants his boat back.
+
+"Give me my boat!" Tom says. "That is not a hat, that is a boat!"
+
+But Lily refuses to give Tom his boat. She thinks it is a funny hat.
+
+"No, it is my hat!" Lily says. "It is a boat hat!"
+
+Tom and Lily start to argue. They pull and tug at the paper boat. They make loud noises and frown.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asks. "Why are you fighting over a paper boat?"
+
+Tom and Lily stop and look at Mom. They feel a little ashamed.
+
+"Lily took my boat and put it on her head!" Tom says. "She says it is a hat!"
+
+"But it is a hat!" Lily says. "It is a boat hat!"
+
+Mom shakes her head. She thinks they are being silly.
+
+"That is not a hat or a boat," Mom says. "That is a paper mess. You ripped and tore the paper. It is not good for anything now."
+
+Tom and Lily look at the paper boat. It is true. It is not a boat or a hat anymore. It is a paper mess. They feel sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily says. "I did not mean to ruin your boat."
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom says. "I did not mean to yell at you."
+
+They hug and say sorry to each other. They also say sorry to Mom.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them too.
+
+"It's okay," Mom says. "You can make new paper things. But next time, be nice and share. And don't be silly with paper."
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play together. One day, they find a big scale in the upstairs bathroom. It is blue and shiny. They want to know how much they weigh.
+
+"Let's try it!" Ben says. He steps on the scale and looks at the numbers. "I weigh forty!" he says proudly.
+
+"My turn!" Lily says. She steps on the scale and looks at the numbers. "I weigh thirty-nine!" she says happily.
+
+They are both very close in weight. They smile at each other.
+
+"Who is heavier?" Ben asks.
+
+"You are!" Lily says.
+
+"Who is lighter?" Ben asks.
+
+"I am!" Lily says.
+
+They giggle and hug. They do not care who is heavier or lighter. They love each other. They are twins.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They also liked to eat ice cream. One day, they saw a big truck with a sign that said "Ice Cream". They ran to the truck and asked for ice cream.
+
+The ice cream man was friendly. He smiled and gave them each a cone with ice cream. Ben chose chocolate and Lily chose vanilla. They thanked the ice cream man and went to a bench to eat their ice cream.
+
+But then, a big dog came to the park. The dog was not friendly. He barked and ran after the children. He wanted to eat their ice cream. Ben and Lily were scared. They ran away from the dog, but the dog was faster. He caught up with them and jumped on them. He knocked down their cones and licked their ice cream.
+
+Ben and Lily cried. They had no ice cream. The dog had eaten it all. The ice cream man saw what happened. He was angry. He shouted at the dog and chased him away. He disturbed the dog and made him run away.
+
+Then, he came back to Ben and Lily. He felt sorry for them. He said he was sorry that the dog disturbed them and ate their ice cream. He said he would give them new cones with ice cream. Ben and Lily smiled. They thanked the ice cream man and took their new cones. They ate their ice cream and felt happy. The ice cream man was friendly. He made them happy.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big swing. They want to swing on it.
+
+"Can I go first?" Tom asks.
+
+"OK, but only for a little bit. Then it is my turn," Lily says.
+
+Tom runs to the swing. He sits on it. He holds the ropes. He pushes with his feet. He goes up and down. He feels great. He laughs.
+
+Lily waits. She counts to ten. She says, "Tom, it is my turn now. Please get off."
+
+Tom stops. He gets off. He lets Lily sit on the swing. He holds the ropes. He pushes Lily. She goes up and down. She feels great. She laughs.
+
+They see a black cat. It walks by the swing. It looks at them. It meows.
+
+"Hello, cat. Do you want to swing with us?" Tom asks.
+
+The cat shakes its head. It walks away.
+
+"Maybe it is scared of the swing. Or maybe it is busy," Lily says.
+
+Tom and Lily shrug. They keep swinging. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to wake up early and play with her toys. She had a lot of dolls and cars and books that she enjoyed. But sometimes, she woke up too early, before the sun was up, and she felt sleepy and bored.
+
+One morning, she woke up and saw that it was still dark outside. She yawned and rubbed her eyes. She wanted to play, but she did not want to wake up her mommy and daddy. She tiptoed to the kitchen and saw a big pot of coffee on the table. She had seen her mommy and daddy drink coffee every morning. They said it made them feel awake and happy. Lily wondered if coffee would make her feel the same.
+
+She climbed on a chair and reached for the pot. She poured some coffee into a cup and took a sip. It was hot and bitter and made her face scrunch up. She did not like it at all. She spit it out and coughed. She heard a voice behind her.
+
+"Lily, what are you doing?" It was her daddy. He had heard the noise and came to see. He saw the coffee cup and the pot and the mess on the table. He was not happy.
+
+"Lily, you should not drink coffee. It is not good for you. It is only for grown-ups. It can make you sick and jittery. You need to drink milk or juice or water. They are good for you. They make you strong and healthy and charming." He said.
+
+Lily felt sorry. She did not mean to make her daddy angry. She wanted to be strong and healthy and charming. She wanted to make her daddy happy. She hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, daddy. I won't drink coffee again. I love you."
+
+Her daddy hugged her back and said, "I love you too, Lily. Now, let's clean up this mess and go back to bed. It is still too early to play. You need to sleep more. Sleep is good for you. It makes you grow and learn and dream." He said.
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She helped her daddy clean up the table and the cup and the pot. Then, they went back to her room and tucked her in. She yawned and closed her eyes. She felt sleepy and happy. She dreamed of playing with her toys and her mommy and daddy. She learned that coffee was not for her. She learned that sleep was better. She learned to listen to her daddy. He knew what was best for her. He was charming.
+Sara and Tom are friends who like to play ball. One day, they find a big pitch near their house. It has grass and dirt and a fence. They are happy and run to the pitch with their ball.
+
+"Let's play catch!" Sara says. She throws the ball to Tom. Tom catches it and throws it back. They do this many times and have fun.
+
+But then, a big boy comes to the pitch. He has a mean face and a big bat. He sees Sara and Tom and says, "This is my pitch. Go away or I will hit you with my bat."
+
+Sara and Tom are scared. They do not want to fight. They think, what should we do? They look at each other and have an idea.
+
+They say to the big boy, "We do not want to go away. We want to play with you. You can have the ball and we will run. You can pitch the ball and try to hit us. It will be fun."
+
+The big boy is surprised. He thinks, why do they want to play with me? He is curious and says, "OK, fine. But I will pitch very hard and you will not catch the ball."
+
+He takes the ball and pitches it to Sara. Sara runs and catches it. She throws it back to him. He pitches it to Tom. Tom runs and catches it. He throws it back to him. They do this many times and have fun.
+
+The big boy is amazed. He thinks, they are very good at catch. They are not afraid of me. They are nice to me. He feels something in his heart. He feels happy and sorry. He says, "I am sorry I was mean to you. You are good friends. Can we play together?"
+
+Sara and Tom smile and say, "Yes, we can. We are happy you are our friend. We can share the pitch and the ball."
+
+They hug and play more. They learn that being kind and brave is better than being mean and sour. They have a good day.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play on the farm. They feed the cows, the pigs and the chickens. They ride the horses and the tractor. They have fun.
+
+One day, Anna says to Ben, "I want to marry you when we grow up. We can live on the farm and take care of the animals."
+
+Ben says, "No, I don't want to marry you. You are a girl. Girls are silly. I want to marry a princess. She will live in a castle and wear a crown."
+
+Anna is sad. She says, "You are mean. I am not silly. I am smart and brave. I can do anything you can do. And I don't need a crown. I have a hat."
+
+Ben says, "You can't do anything I can do. You can't climb the big tree. You can't jump over the fence. You can't catch the rabbit. You are too slow and too scared."
+
+Anna is angry. She says, "I can do all those things. I can do them better than you. I will show you. Come on, let's race to the big tree."
+
+Ben says, "OK, let's race. But you will lose. And then you will cry."
+
+They run to the big tree. Anna is faster than Ben. She climbs to the top. She says, "I did it. I am not slow. I am not scared. I am the best."
+
+Ben is surprised. He says, "Wow, you did it. You are fast. You are brave. You are the best. I am sorry I was mean. You are not silly. You are smart and fun. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Anna says, "Yes, we can still be friends. But I don't want to marry you anymore. You are a boy. Boys are silly. I want to marry a farmer. He will live on the farm and wear a hat."
+
+Ben says, "OK, I don't want to marry you either. You are a girl. Girls are funny. I want to marry a vet. She will live on the farm and help the animals."
+
+They laugh and hug. They are friends. They play on the farm. They have fun.
+One day, a little seal wanted to go to the store with his mom. He liked to see all the things in the store, like fish and toys and books. He asked his mom if he could have a fish, but his mom said no. She said they had enough fish at home, and they had to save their money for other things.
+
+The little seal was sad. He really wanted a fish. He saw a big fish on a shelf, and he thought no one would notice if he took it. He waited until his mom was looking at something else, and he grabbed the fish with his mouth. He hid it under his fur, and he followed his mom to the door.
+
+But when they got to the door, a loud sound made them stop. It was the store man. He saw the fish under the little seal's fur, and he was angry. He said the little seal was a thief, and he had to give back the fish. He also said he had to tell his mom what he did.
+
+The little seal was scared. He dropped the fish, and he looked at his mom. His mom was very sad and disappointed. She said she was sorry to the store man, and she said the little seal had to say sorry too. She said stealing was very bad, and he had to learn to be honest and grateful for what he had.
+
+The little seal felt very sorry. He said sorry to the store man, and he said sorry to his mom. He said he would never steal again, and he would listen to his mom. He hugged his mom, and they went home. The little seal learned a lesson that day. He learned that stealing is wrong, and that he should be happy with what he has. He also learned that his mom loves him, and he loves his mom.
+Sam and Lily liked to play with their boat in the pond. They made the boat go fast and slow, and they pretended to be pirates and sailors. They had a lot of fun with their boat.
+
+One day, they saw a big hill near the pond. They wanted to see what was on the other side of the hill. They thought maybe there was a treasure or a castle or a dragon. They decided to take their boat and climb the hill.
+
+The hill was very high and steep. Sam and Lily had to push and pull their boat up the hill. They got tired and sweaty. They started to complain.
+
+"Sam, this is too hard. I want to go back to the pond," Lily said.
+
+"Lily, don't be a baby. We are almost there. I want to see what's on the other side of the hill," Sam said.
+
+They kept going up the hill, but they were not happy. They argued and whined and cried.
+
+When they finally reached the top of the hill, they looked down and saw something that made them stop complaining. They saw another pond, bigger and prettier than the one they left. They saw ducks and fish and frogs and flowers. They saw a rainbow and a cloud that looked like a bunny.
+
+They smiled and hugged each other. They forgot about their tiredness and their fight. They put their boat in the new pond and played with it. They had more fun than ever with their boat. They were glad they climbed the high hill.
+Anna liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She liked to stir the soup, cut the bread, and taste the cheese. But there was one thing she did not like: onions. Onions made her eyes water and her nose sting. She always said, "No onions, please!"
+
+One day, her mom had a surprise for her. She said, "Anna, I have a special onion for you. It is not like the other onions. It is delicate and sweet. Do you want to try it?" Anna was curious. She wanted to see the special onion. She nodded and said, "Yes, please!"
+
+Her mom took out a small, round, purple onion from a paper bag. She peeled off the skin and cut it in half. She gave one half to Anna and said, "This is a red onion. It is not spicy like the white or yellow onions. It is mild and crunchy. You can eat it raw or cooked. It is good for salads, sandwiches, and burgers. Do you like it?"
+
+Anna took a bite of the red onion. She was surprised. It was not like the other onions. It was delicate and sweet. It did not make her eyes water or her nose sting. It was crunchy and juicy. She liked it. She smiled and said, "I like it, mom! It is a good onion. Thank you for the surprise!"
+
+Her mom smiled back and said, "You're welcome, Anna. I'm glad you like it. You are a brave and adventurous girl. You can try new things and discover new flavors. Maybe next time, you can try a green onion. It is also delicate and sweet, but a little bit spicy. Do you want to try it?"
+
+Anna thought for a moment. She liked the red onion. Maybe she would like the green onion too. She nodded and said, "Yes, please!"
+Lily wanted to help Mommy wrap the fruit for the picnic. She took a big banana and a piece of paper. She tried to fold the paper around the banana, but it was too hard. The paper ripped and the banana fell on the floor.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "I'm sorry, Mommy. I'm clumsy."
+
+Mommy smiled and hugged Lily. "It's okay, sweetie. You're not clumsy. You're just learning. Wrapping fruit is tricky. Let me show you how to do it."
+
+Mommy took another banana and a new piece of paper. She cut the paper to fit the banana. She folded the paper neatly and taped it. She gave the wrapped banana to Lily.
+
+"Wow, Mommy! You're so good at wrapping fruit!" Lily said. "Can I try again?"
+
+"Of course, honey. Here, take this apple and this paper. I'll help you if you need me."
+
+Lily took the apple and the paper. She copied what Mommy did. She cut, folded and taped the paper. She wrapped the apple all by herself.
+
+"Look, Mommy! I did it! I wrapped the fruit!" Lily said proudly.
+
+Mommy clapped and cheered. "You did it, Lily! You wrapped the fruit! You're so smart and helpful. I'm so proud of you!"
+
+Lily and Mommy hugged and kissed. They finished wrapping the rest of the fruit for the picnic. They put the fruit in a basket and went outside. They had a fun and yummy picnic with Daddy and Spot, their dog. Lily shared her wrapped fruit with everyone. They all said thank you and told her how good she was at wrapping fruit. Lily felt happy and proud. She loved wrapping fruit.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their crayons and paper in the living room. They liked to draw different things, like animals, flowers, and cars. Sometimes they made mistakes and used the eraser to fix them. The eraser was white and soft, and it made the crayon marks disappear.
+
+"Look, I drew a big lion!" Ben said, showing his paper to Sara. "It has a yellow mane and sharp teeth."
+
+"Wow, that's a good lion!" Sara said, clapping her hands. "Can I draw one too?"
+
+"Sure, you can use my yellow crayon," Ben said, handing it to her. "But be careful, it's almost finished."
+
+Sara took the crayon and started to draw her own lion. She made a round head, a long body, and four legs. She was about to draw the mane when she noticed something strange. The eraser was moving by itself on the table. It was rolling and bouncing, as if someone was pushing it.
+
+"Ben, look at the eraser!" Sara said, pointing at it. "It's moving!"
+
+Ben looked at the eraser and gasped. He had never seen anything like that before. It was mysterious and scary. He wondered who or what was making it move.
+
+"Maybe it's a ghost!" Ben said, feeling afraid. "Or a magic eraser!"
+
+"Or maybe it's a friendly eraser!" Sara said, feeling curious. "Maybe it wants to play with us!"
+
+Sara reached out her hand to touch the eraser, but Ben stopped her.
+
+"No, don't touch it!" Ben said, pulling her back. "It might be dangerous!"
+
+But before they could decide what to do, the eraser stopped moving. It fell to the floor and lay still. Sara and Ben looked at each other, puzzled and amazed.
+
+"What was that?" Sara asked.
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. "But it was very weird."
+
+They decided to leave the eraser alone and finish their drawings. They drew the manes, the tails, and the eyes of their lions. They were proud of their work and showed it to their mom, who praised them and gave them a hug.
+
+"Did you have fun with your crayons and paper?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, we did," Sara and Ben said. "But we also had fun with the eraser."
+
+They told Mom about the eraser and how it moved by itself. Mom listened and smiled.
+
+"That sounds like a very interesting eraser," Mom said. "Maybe it has a story to tell."
+
+"Maybe," Sara and Ben said. "But we don't know how to talk to it."
+
+They looked at the eraser, wondering if it would move again. But it didn't. It was just an eraser, white and soft, and quiet.
+Tom and Lily liked to play pretend. They had a big box that they used as a car. They put on hats and scarves and said they were going to the opera. They sang loud songs and made funny faces.
+
+"Beep beep! We are here!" Tom said. He opened the box and helped Lily out. They walked to the door of the opera house. It was really their closet, but they pretended it was not.
+
+"Hello, sir and madam. Welcome to the opera. Do you have your tickets?" a voice said. It was their big brother, Sam. He was hiding behind the door. He wanted to trick them.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They did not have tickets. They did not know what tickets were. They felt embarrassed. They did not want to play anymore.
+
+"Go away, Sam! You are mean!" Lily said. She started to cry. Tom hugged her and said, "Don't worry, Lily. We can ride our car somewhere else. We don't need the opera. We have each other."
+
+They got back in the box and closed the lid. They drove away from the opera house. They drove to the park. They played on the swings and the slide. They had fun. They forgot about Sam and the opera. They were happy.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big tree with a hole. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They lean on the tree and look in the hole. They see a note. It has some words and a picture. Lily can read some words. She reads the note.
+
+"Hello, I am a fairy. I live in this tree. I like to help people. If you need a wish, write it on this note and leave it in the hole. I will try to make it come true. Be kind and happy. Love, Fairy."
+
+Lily and Tom are surprised. They wonder if the note is true. They think of a wish.
+
+"I wish I had a bike," Tom says.
+
+"I wish I had a doll," Lily says.
+
+They write their wishes on the note and leave it in the hole. They say thank you to the fairy. They go back to play.
+
+The next day, they come back to the park. They run to the tree. They look in the hole. They see two gifts. One is a bike. One is a doll. They are warm and shiny. They have a note.
+
+"Here are your gifts. I hope you like them. Enjoy and share. Be kind and happy. Love, Fairy."
+
+Lily and Tom are happy. They hug the gifts. They hug each other. They thank the fairy. They ride the bike and play with the doll. They are kind and happy. They believe in fairy.
+Lily liked fashion. She liked to wear pretty dresses and shoes and hats. She liked to look at magazines and books with pictures of fashion. She liked to play dress-up with her dolls and her friends.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and dad. She wore her favorite dress, a pink one with flowers and ribbons. She also wore a matching hat and shoes. She felt very happy and lively.
+
+At the park, she saw a boy playing with a ball. He was wearing a blue shirt and jeans. He looked at Lily and said, "Hi, I'm Ben. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. Sure, I want to play with you."
+
+Ben threw the ball to Lily and she caught it. They ran and laughed and had fun. They played for a long time.
+
+Then, Lily saw a girl sitting on a bench. She was wearing a dress like Lily's, but in purple. She also had a hat and shoes like Lily's, but in purple. She had a doll in her lap, dressed like her. She looked at Lily and said, "Hi, I'm Violet. I like your fashion. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily looked at Violet and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. Thank you, I like your fashion too. But I'm playing with Ben right now."
+
+Violet frowned and said, "But Ben is boring. He only plays with balls. You should play with me. We can play dress-up and have a tea party. We can be fashion friends."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She liked fashion, but she also liked playing with Ben. He was lively and fun. She said, "No, thank you. I like playing with Ben. He is not boring. He is lively and fun. We can be ball friends."
+
+Violet sighed and said, "Fine. Suit yourself. But you're missing out on the best fashion ever."
+
+She turned away and hugged her doll. Lily shrugged and threw the ball to Ben. They ran and laughed and had fun. They played for a long time.
+Lily and Ben are youth. They like to play in the park. They have a ball and a kite. They are happy.
+
+But then a big dog comes. The dog wants the ball. It runs to Lily and Ben. It barks loud. Lily and Ben are scared.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Ben shouts. He tries to get the ball. But the dog is faster. It grabs the ball with its teeth. It runs away.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Lily shouts. She runs after the dog. Ben runs too. They want their ball back.
+
+The dog runs to a man. The man is funny. He has a big hat and a long coat. He sees the dog and the ball. He sees Lily and Ben.
+
+"Is this your ball, kids?" the man asks. He smiles. He takes the ball from the dog. He gives it to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Thank you, mister!" Lily and Ben say. They are happy. They have their ball again.
+
+The dog is happy too. It wags its tail. It likes the man. The man likes the dog.
+
+"Can I pet your dog, mister?" Lily asks. She likes the dog too.
+
+"Sure, you can. His name is Spot. He is friendly. He just likes to play." the man says. He laughs.
+
+Lily and Ben pet the dog. They laugh too. The dog licks their faces. They are friends.
+
+The end.
+One day, a boy named Tom and his dog Spot went for a walk in the park. They saw many things, like trees, flowers, birds and squirrels. Tom liked to talk to Spot and ask him questions, like "What is that?" or "Do you like this?". Spot would bark or wag his tail to answer.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It sounded like a roar. Tom and Spot looked around and saw a big lion. The lion had escaped from the zoo and was looking for food. Tom and Spot were very frightened. They did not want to be the lion's food.
+
+"Spot, run!" Tom said. He grabbed Spot's leash and ran away from the lion. The lion chased them, but they were faster. They ran to a playground, where there were many people and children. They shouted for help.
+
+"Help, help, there is a lion!" Tom said.
+
+Some people heard Tom and saw the lion. They were also frightened, but they called the zookeepers and the police. They came quickly and caught the lion. They put him back in his cage, where he belonged.
+
+Tom and Spot were safe. They hugged each other and thanked the people who helped them. They were very brave. They decided to go home and play with their stuff. They did not want to see any more lions.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a big tree with green fruits. The fruits are avocados. Ben and Mia love avocados. They eat them with salt and lemon.
+
+One day, Ben and Mia see a ripe avocado on the tree. They both want it. They run to the tree and try to reach the fruit. But the fruit is too high. They need a ladder.
+
+"Let's get the ladder from the shed," Ben says.
+
+"No, I have a better idea," Mia says. "You lie on the ground and I will climb on you. Then I can get the fruit."
+
+Ben thinks Mia is lazy. He does not want to lie on the ground. He wants to get the ladder.
+
+"No, that's not fair," Ben says. "You always want me to do the hard work. You are lazy."
+
+"I'm not lazy, you are lazy," Mia says. "You are afraid to lie on the ground. You are a chicken."
+
+Ben and Mia start to fight. They push and pull each other. They forget about the avocado.
+
+The avocado falls from the tree. It lands on the ground. It breaks open. A big worm comes out of it. The worm is slimy and brown. It wiggles and wriggles.
+
+Ben and Mia see the worm. They scream and run away. They do not want the avocado anymore. They are scared of the worm.
+
+The worm is happy. It eats the avocado. It is not lazy. It is hungry.
+Sam liked jelly very much. He liked to eat it with a spoon or with his fingers. He liked to make it wobble and shake. He liked all the colors and flavors of jelly.
+
+One day, Sam saw a big bowl of jelly on the table. It was red and shiny and smelled like strawberries. Sam wanted to eat some jelly, but his mom said no. She said it was for the party later and he had to wait.
+
+Sam was sad and angry. He did not want to wait. He wanted jelly now. He tried to mind his mom, but he was very persistent. He kept asking for jelly. He kept looking at the bowl. He kept thinking of ways to get some jelly.
+
+When his mom was busy in the kitchen, Sam saw his chance. He climbed on a chair and reached for the bowl. He grabbed a handful of jelly and stuffed it in his mouth. It was sweet and soft and delicious. Sam smiled and licked his fingers.
+
+But then he heard his mom coming back. He quickly jumped off the chair and hid behind the couch. He hoped his mom would not see him or the bowl. He hoped his mom would not be mad. He hoped he could have some more jelly later.
+Tim and Lily were very tired. They had played all day with their toys and their dog. They had eaten a big dinner of pasta and orange juice. Now it was time for bed.
+
+But Tim and Lily did not want to go to bed. They wanted to stay up and watch TV. They begged their mom and dad to let them watch one more show. Their mom and dad said no. They said it was late and they had to sleep.
+
+Tim and Lily were not happy. They made a big fuss. They cried and shouted and stomped their feet. Their mom and dad were not happy either. They said they had to be quiet and go to their rooms.
+
+Tim and Lily went to their rooms, but they did not sleep. They turned on their lamps and read their books. They whispered and giggled and made funny faces. They thought they were very clever.
+
+But soon they started to feel sleepy. Their eyes became heavy and their mouths opened wide. They yawned and yawned and yawned. They could not keep their eyes open. They put down their books and turned off their lamps. They snuggled under their blankets and closed their eyes.
+
+Their dog came to their rooms and lay down on their beds. He was also very tired. He had run and jumped and barked all day. He had chased a cat and a squirrel and a bird. He had eaten a bone and a ball and an orange. The orange was not good. It was old and rotten and dead. It made his tummy hurt. He yawned and yawned and yawned. He could not keep his eyes open. He curled up and closed his eyes.
+
+Tim and Lily and their dog slept all night. They had sweet dreams of toys and pasta and orange juice. They did not hear their mom and dad come to their rooms and kiss them good night. They did not hear the TV or the clock or the wind. They did not hear anything. They were very quiet and very peaceful. They were very happy.
+Sara and Tom were twins, but they liked different things. Sara liked flowers and Tom liked cars. One day, they went to the park with their mom. Sara saw a big flower bed with many colors. She ran to it and smiled.
+
+"Look, mom, look! The flowers are so pretty! They bloom in the light!" she said.
+
+Tom followed her and looked at the flowers. He did not think they were pretty. He thought they were boring. He saw a red car on the road. He ran to it and pointed.
+
+"Look, mom, look! The car is so cool! It zooms in the light!" he said.
+
+Mom smiled at both of them. She was happy that they liked different things. She hugged them and said.
+
+"I love you, Sara and Tom. You are both special. You shine in the light!" she said.
+Tommy loved his uncle Ben. Uncle Ben always played with him and gave him fun toys. But uncle Ben also liked to spoil Tommy with candy and chips. He said they were treats for being a good boy.
+
+One day, Tommy's mom told him that uncle Ben was coming to visit. Tommy was very happy and ran to the door. He hugged uncle Ben and asked him what he brought. Uncle Ben smiled and showed him a big bag of candy and chips. He said they were for Tommy and him to share.
+
+Tommy's mom was not happy. She said that candy and chips were not healthy. She said that they would make Tommy's teeth and tummy hurt. She said that Tommy should eat fruits and vegetables instead. She said that uncle Ben should not spoil Tommy so much.
+
+Uncle Ben said he was sorry. He said he just wanted to make Tommy happy. He said he did not know that candy and chips were bad. He said he would try to be more healthy.
+
+Tommy's mom said that it was okay. She said that she loved uncle Ben and Tommy. She said that they could have a little candy and chips, but not too much. She said that they should also have some salad and juice. She said that they would all feel better.
+
+Tommy agreed. He said that he loved uncle Ben and his mom. He said that he liked candy and chips, but he also liked fruits and vegetables. He said that he wanted to be healthy and strong. He said that he would share his treats with uncle Ben and his mom. He said that they were a happy family.
+Lily and Ben like to play with print. They have many print books and print toys. They can make print with crayons and paper. They have fun with print.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben find a big print machine in the basement. It is old and dusty. They do not know what it does. They want to try it.
+
+"Look, Ben, there is a button here. Maybe it makes print," Lily says.
+
+"Let's push it and see," Ben says.
+
+They push the button. The print machine makes a loud noise. It starts to move. It has many sharp teeth and rollers. It grabs Lily's hand.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts! It hurts!" Lily screams.
+
+"Let go, Lily, let go!" Ben shouts.
+
+But Lily cannot let go. The print machine holds her hand tight. It pulls her in. Ben tries to help her. He pulls her arm. But he is too small and weak. The print machine is too strong and fast.
+
+"Help, help, help!" Lily and Ben cry.
+
+But no one hears them. No one comes. The print machine eats them up. It makes print with their blood and bones. It is a bad print machine. It is a bad ending.
+Lily was a curious girl who liked to ask questions. She wanted to know everything about the world. One day, she saw a pig on a farm and wondered what it was.
+
+"Mommy, what is that?" she asked, pointing at the pig.
+
+"That is a pig, Lily. It is an animal that lives on the farm. Some people keep pigs as pets, and some people use pigs for food," Mommy explained.
+
+Lily felt sad for the pig. She did not want it to be food. She wanted it to be happy and free. She decided to pray for the pig.
+
+"Dear God, please help the pig. Please make it safe and loved. Please do not let anyone hurt it or eat it. Please let it have friends and fun. Thank you, God. Amen," she prayed.
+
+The pig heard Lily's prayer and felt a warm feeling in its heart. It looked at Lily and smiled. It was grateful for her kindness and care. It wanted to be her friend.
+
+"Oink, oink," it said, wagging its tail.
+
+Lily smiled back and ran to the pig. She hugged it and stroked its fur. She felt happy and peaceful.
+
+"Hello, pig. I am Lily. You are my friend. I love you," she said.
+
+The pig and Lily became friends. They played and talked and laughed. They learned from each other and shared their dreams. They thanked God for each other. They were happy and free.
+Lily was a shy girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had a best friend, Anna, who lived next door. Anna was not shy. She liked to talk and laugh and make new friends.
+
+One day, Anna came to Lily's house and asked her to go to the park with her. Lily was scared. She did not like to go to the park. There were many big kids and loud noises there. She wanted to stay at home and play with her dolls.
+
+"Please, Lily, come with me," Anna said. "It will be fun. I promise. I will not leave you alone. We will play together on the swings and the slide. Please, please, please."
+
+Lily looked at Anna's big eyes and smiled. Anna was her best friend. She did not want to make her sad. She decided to be brave and go to the park with her.
+
+"Okay, Anna, I will go with you," Lily said. "But you have to promise me that you will not leave me alone. You have to stay with me all the time."
+
+"I promise, Lily, I promise," Anna said. "I will not leave you alone. You are my best friend. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lily and Anna held hands and walked to the park. Lily was still shy, but she felt a little better with Anna by her side. She hoped that Anna would keep her promise and not leave her alone.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with blocks and make towers. One day, they want to make the tallest tower ever. They find many blocks and start to build.
+
+"Look, my tower is very high!" Tom says. He puts another block on top.
+
+"Mine is higher!" Lily says. She puts two blocks on top.
+
+They keep building and building. They do not listen to Mom, who tells them to be careful. They do not see that their towers are wobbly and shaky.
+
+CRASH! Tom's tower falls down. He is sad and angry. He cries and kicks his blocks.
+
+CRASH! Lily's tower falls down too. She is sad and scared. She cries and hugs her blocks.
+
+Mom comes and sees the mess. She is not jolly. She is cross. She says, "Why did you not listen to me? You could have hurt yourselves or broken the blocks. You need to be more careful and share."
+
+Lily and Tom feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We wanted to make the tallest tower ever. We wanted to have success. But we were silly and did not listen. Can we try again?"
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "It is okay to try new things and have fun. But you also need to listen and be safe. And you need to work together and help each other. That is how you have success. Do you want to try again?"
+
+Lily and Tom nod and smile. They say, "Yes, please. We want to try again. And we will listen and share and be careful. Thank you, Mom."
+
+They pick up the blocks and start to build again. They make a new tower. It is not the tallest tower ever, but it is strong and stable. They are jolly and proud. They have success.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the yard. They have a big box and some crayons. They want to make a house for their dolls.
+
+"I will draw the door here," Sara says. She makes a big circle with a blue crayon.
+
+"No, that is not a door. That is a window," Ben says. He takes the crayon from Sara and draws a square. "A door is like this."
+
+Sara and Ben disagree. They both want to make the house their way. They start to yell and pull the crayon.
+
+"Stop it! You are breaking the box!" Sara cries.
+
+"Give me the crayon! You are making it ugly!" Ben shouts.
+
+They tug and tug until the crayon snaps. The sharp end scratches Sara's arm. She drops the crayon and starts to cry.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow! It hurts!" Sara says. She runs to her mom.
+
+Ben feels bad. He did not mean to hurt Sara. He follows her to her mom.
+
+Sara's mom sees the scratch. She gets a bandage and puts it on Sara's arm.
+
+"There, there. It will be okay," Sara's mom says. She hugs Sara and kisses her cheek.
+
+"Can I say sorry to Sara?" Ben asks. He looks at Sara with sad eyes.
+
+Sara's mom nods. She lets go of Sara and smiles at Ben.
+
+Ben goes to Sara and gives her a hug. He says sorry for breaking the crayon and scratching her arm.
+
+"I am sorry too. I should have shared the crayon with you," Sara says. She smiles at Ben and shows him her bandage.
+
+"Wow, that is a nice bandage. It has stars on it," Ben says. He touches the bandage gently.
+
+"Thank you. It feels better now. Do you want to play with me again?" Sara asks.
+
+"Yes, I do. Can we make the house together?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure. We can make the door a circle and a square. And we can use different colors," Sara says.
+
+They go back to the yard. They find the box and the crayons. They make the house for their dolls. They have fun and do not disagree anymore.
+
+The end.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big teddy bear. They liked to hug him and pretend he was their friend.
+
+"Teddy, do you want a cookie?" Lily asked, holding a plastic cookie from her tea set. "You must be hungry after playing so much."
+
+Ben nodded and took another cookie. He pretended to feed it to Teddy. "Yes, Teddy loves cookies. They are yummy and sweet. But don't eat too many, or you will get a tummy ache."
+
+Lily giggled and gave Teddy a sip of water from a plastic cup. "That's right, Ben. Teddy needs to drink water too. Water is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy."
+
+They played for a while longer, until they heard their mom calling them from the kitchen. "Ben, Lily, it's time for dinner. Come and wash your hands, please."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other and smiled. They loved dinner time, because mom always cooked something delicious. They put their toys away and ran to the kitchen. But when they got there, they saw something that made them stop.
+
+On the table, there was a big plate of cookies. They looked so good, with chocolate chips and sprinkles. Ben and Lily's eyes widened and their mouths watered.
+
+"Wow, mom, did you make these?" Ben asked, reaching for a cookie.
+
+Mom smiled and shook her head. "No, these are from grandma. She came to visit today and brought them for you. But you can't have them now. You have to eat your dinner first. These are for dessert."
+
+Ben and Lily pouted and looked at the cookies. They wanted them so badly. But they knew they had to listen to mom. They went to the sink and washed their hands. They were very dirty from playing.
+
+"Okay, mom, we are ready," Lily said, wiping her hands on a towel.
+
+Mom nodded and served them some soup and bread. "Good, now eat up. And don't forget to say thank you to grandma for the cookies. She will be back soon. She just went to the store to buy some milk."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and started to eat their soup. It was warm and tasty. They said thank you to grandma in their minds. They hoped she would come back soon. They wanted to hug her and tell her they loved her. And they wanted to eat the cookies.
+
+But as they ate, they felt something strange. They felt their eyes getting heavy and their mouths getting wide. They felt a big yawn coming.
+
+"Yawn," Ben yawned, covering his mouth.
+
+"Yawn," Lily yawned, covering her mouth.
+
+Mom looked at them and smiled. She knew they were tired from playing. She knew they needed to rest. She knew they would have the cookies tomorrow.
+
+"Are you sleepy, my darlings?" she asked, stroking their hair.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and yawned again. They felt their heads getting fuzzy and their bodies getting soft. They felt like they wanted to sleep.
+
+"Can we have a cookie, mom?" Ben asked, with a sleepy voice.
+
+"Can we have a cookie, mom?" Lily asked, with a sleepy voice.
+
+Mom shook her head and kissed their foreheads. "No, not now. You have to sleep first. You can have a cookie tomorrow. I promise."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and yawned again. They trusted mom. They knew she would keep her promise. They finished their soup and bread and followed mom to their bedroom. They put on their pajamas and climbed into their beds. Mom tucked them in and gave them Teddy. They hugged him and smiled.
+
+"Good night, mom," Ben said, closing his eyes.
+
+"Good night, mom," Lily said, closing her eyes.
+
+"Good night, my darlings," mom said, turning off the light. "I love you very much. Sweet dreams."
+
+She left the room and closed the door. She smiled and went to the kitchen. She put the cookies in a jar and hid them in the cupboard. She would give them to Ben and Lily tomorrow. She knew they would be happy and grateful. She knew they would enjoy them more after a good night's sleep. She knew they were good children. She was proud of them. She loved them very much.
+Anna likes to help her mom cook. She likes to stir the rice in the pot and smell the yummy food. One day, her mom says, "Anna, today we will make green rice. It is good for you and it tastes good too."
+
+Anna is curious. She asks, "How do we make green rice, mom?"
+
+Her mom says, "We use spinach. Spinach is a green leaf that grows in the garden. We wash it and chop it and mix it with the rice. Then we add some salt and butter and cheese. It makes the rice creamy and cheesy and green."
+
+Anna helps her mom wash and chop the spinach. She watches as her mom puts it in the pot with the rice. She stirs the rice and spinach together. She smells the butter and cheese. She thinks it smells good.
+
+When the green rice is ready, her mom serves it on a plate. She gives Anna a spoon and says, "Try it, Anna. You will like it."
+
+Anna takes a bite of the green rice. She feels the warm and creamy and cheesy rice in her mouth. She likes it. She says, "Mmm, this is good, mom. I like green rice. It makes me happy and strong."
+
+Her mom smiles and says, "I'm glad you like it, Anna. You are a good helper and a good eater. You improve every day. I'm proud of you."
+Anna and Ben were friends. They liked to play with blocks and cars and dolls. One day, they found a big smooth rock in the park. It was shiny and round and heavy.
+
+"Look, Anna, a rock!" Ben said. "Let's play with it!"
+
+"OK, Ben, let's play!" Anna said. They took the rock to their sandbox and pretended it was a mountain or a castle or a spaceship. They had fun.
+
+But then, Ben wanted to keep the rock for himself. He said it was his rock and he found it first. He did not want to share with Anna.
+
+"No, Ben, it is our rock!" Anna said. "We both found it and we both played with it. You have to share!"
+
+"No, Anna, it is my rock!" Ben said. He grabbed the rock and ran away. Anna was sad and angry. She ran after him and tried to get the rock back.
+
+They ran and ran until they reached the street. They did not look for cars. They did not remember to be careful. They only wanted the rock.
+
+A big car came fast and loud. It did not see them. It hit them both. The rock flew out of Ben's hand and broke into pieces. Anna and Ben did not play anymore. They did not breathe anymore. They were gone. The car drove away. The rock was alone.
+Tom and Anna like to play with their toys. They have a bow and arrow, a doll and a car. They take turns to shoot the arrow at the wall. They laugh when the arrow makes a loud sound.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" Mom says. "You are making too much noise. It is time for bed. You are sleepy and I am sleepy. Put away your toys and brush your teeth."
+
+Tom and Anna do not want to stop. They want to play more. They do not feel sleepy. They hide their toys under the bed and pretend to sleep. Mom turns off the light and leaves the room.
+
+When Mom is gone, Tom and Anna get up and take out their toys. They whisper and giggle. They shoot the arrow at the wall again. But this time, the arrow does not hit the wall. It flies out of the window and hits a bird.
+
+The bird falls to the ground. It does not move. It does not sing. It is dead. Tom and Anna see the bird and feel sad. They cry and cry. They wish they had listened to Mom. They wish they had stopped playing. They wish they had not killed the bird.
+Ben and Sam are friends. They like to play outside in winter. They see snow and ice and trees. They make a snowman with a hat and a carrot nose. They are happy.
+
+One day, they find a big hill. They want to slide down the hill on a sled. They see a brown sled near the hill. It looks old and broken. But they do not care. They think it will be fun.
+
+They take the brown sled and go to the top of the hill. They sit on the sled and hold on tight. They nod at each other and smile. They are ready to go.
+
+They push the sled and start to slide down the hill. They go very fast. They feel the wind and the cold. They laugh and shout. They are having fun.
+
+But then, something bad happens. The sled hits a rock and breaks. Ben and Sam fall off the sled and roll down the hill. They hit more rocks and trees and snow. They get hurt and bleed. They cry and scream. They are not having fun.
+
+They stop at the bottom of the hill. They are cold and wet and in pain. They look at each other and see their bruises and cuts. They are sad and scared. They do not smile. They do not nod. They wish they had not taken the brown sled. They wish they had stayed with the snowman. They wish they had listened to their moms. They wish they could go home.
+Anna and Ben like to play near the pond. The pond is big and smooth. They see fish and frogs and ducks in the pond. Sometimes they throw stones and make ripples.
+
+One day, Ben finds a bird on the ground. The bird is hurt. It has a broken wing. Ben feels sad for the bird. He picks it up gently and shows it to Anna.
+
+"Look, Anna, a bird. It is hurt. What can we do?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She remembers what her mom told her once. "We can help the bird heal. We need to find a safe place for it. And we need to give it water and food. Maybe some bread or seeds."
+
+"OK, let's do that. Where can we find a safe place?" Ben says.
+
+They look around and see a big tree. The tree has a hole in its trunk. They think the hole is a good place for the bird. They carry the bird to the tree and put it in the hole. They find some water and bread and put them near the hole.
+
+"Here you go, bird. We hope you feel better soon. We will come back and check on you," Anna says.
+
+The bird looks at them with its bright eyes. It makes a soft sound. It seems to say thank you.
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They are happy they helped the bird. They hope the bird will heal and fly again. They wave goodbye and go back to the pond. They play some more and have fun.
+Lily loves horses. She likes to look at them, to touch them, and to ride them. Her dad has a big farm with many horses. He lets Lily spend time with them every day.
+
+One day, Lily sees a new horse in the farm. It is brown and white, and has a long mane and tail. It looks lively and happy. Lily wants to meet the new horse. She runs to the fence and calls out, "Hello, horse! What is your name?"
+
+The horse hears Lily and comes closer. It sniffs her hand and nuzzles her cheek. It makes a soft sound, like a neigh. Lily giggles and strokes the horse's nose. She says, "You are very nice, horse. I like you. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The horse nods and licks Lily's hair. It seems to say yes. Lily smiles and hugs the horse. She says, "I will call you Spot, because you have spots. Do you like that name?"
+
+The horse nods again and whinnies. It likes the name. Lily and Spot become friends. They spend a lot of time together. They play, they run, and they have fun. Lily is very happy. She loves her new horse.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the woods. They liked to pretend they were animals and make noises. Ben was a bear and Lily was a rabbit. They ran and hid behind the trees and bushes.
+
+But there was a bad hunter in the woods. He had a big gun and a mean dog. He wanted to catch the animals and hurt them. He heard Ben and Lily's noises and followed them.
+
+"Shh, I hear something," Ben whispered to Lily. "It sounds like a dog. We have to be quiet and hide."
+
+They found a big hole under a rock and crawled inside. They hoped the hunter would not see them.
+
+The hunter and his dog came closer. The dog sniffed the air and barked. The hunter saw the hole and smiled.
+
+"Good boy, you found them," he said. "Let's get them out of there."
+
+He pointed his gun at the hole and pulled the trigger. But nothing happened. His gun was empty. He had forgotten to load it.
+
+Ben and Lily heard the click and knew they had a chance. They ran out of the hole and past the hunter. They yelled as loud as they could.
+
+"Help, help, there's a bad hunter in the woods!"
+
+Some other people who were walking in the woods heard them and came to see what was wrong. They saw the hunter and his dog and called the police. The police came and took the hunter and his dog away.
+
+Ben and Lily were safe. They hugged each other and thanked the people who helped them.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They learned to be careful in the woods and to always yield to the animals. They also learned that some people are bad and some people are good. And they learned that sometimes, luck can save you.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play with toys. One day, they found a beautiful doll with long hair and a pink dress. They both wanted to play with the doll, but there was only one.
+
+"Can I have the doll?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Ben said.
+
+They started to pull the doll from each other, and the doll cried. "Ouch! You are hurting me!" the doll said.
+
+Lily and Ben were surprised. They did not know the doll could talk. They let go of the doll and looked at her.
+
+"Who are you?" Ben asked.
+
+"I am Anna, the magic doll. I can talk and feel, but only if you are kind and gentle with me. If you are mean and rough, I will be quiet and sad." the doll said.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for the doll. They did not want to make her sad.
+
+"We are sorry, Anna. We did not know you were magic. We both like you very much." Lily said.
+
+"Can we be your friends?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. But you have to learn to share. Sharing is when you let someone else have something you like, so you can both be happy. Sharing is good for you and for me." the doll said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They wanted to share with each other and with the doll.
+
+"Can I play with your hair, Anna?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, you can. And Ben, can you play with my ear? It is very soft and ticklish." the doll said.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They played with the doll's hair and ear, and took turns to hold her and hug her. The doll laughed and sang with them. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Lily and Ben learned to share, and they became good friends with Anna. They also learned that sharing makes things more beautiful.
+Lila and Tom were playing on the shore. They liked to make sand castles and look for shells. They saw a big black dog near the water. The dog was wet and dirty.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Lila said. "Can we pet him?"
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "He looks mean."
+
+But Lila liked dogs. She ran to the dog and tried to hug him. The dog did not like that. He growled and bit Lila on the arm. Lila screamed and cried.
+
+"Help, help!" Tom shouted. "The dog bit Lila!"
+
+A man came running from the road. He was the dog's owner. He grabbed the dog and put him on a leash.
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" the man said. "He's not a bad dog, he just needs a bath. He hates the water and he ran away from me."
+
+But Lila did not care. She was hurt and scared. She had blood on her arm and tears on her face. Tom hugged her and tried to calm her down.
+
+The man called an ambulance. He said he was sorry again and again. But it was too late. Lila had to go to the hospital. She had to get stitches and shots. She did not want to see the dog or the man ever again. She hated the shore and the black dog. She only wanted to go home.
+Tom was a wise cat. He liked to drink milk from a bowl. He knew how to find milk in the kitchen. He waited for the big people to go out. Then he jumped on the table and looked for the bowl.
+
+One day, Tom saw a new thing on the table. It was shiny and flat and had a long tail. Tom thought it was a toy. He wanted to play with it. He touched it with his paw. It was very hot! Tom yowled and ran away.
+
+The new thing was not a toy. It was an iron. The big people used it to make their clothes smooth. They forgot to turn it off when they went out. It was dangerous for Tom and the house.
+
+Tom learned a lesson. He did not touch the new thing again. He only drank milk from the bowl. He was a wise cat.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the kitchen. They see a big bowl of stuff on the table. It is brown and sticky.
+
+"What is this stuff?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is cake," Lily says.
+
+They want to taste the stuff. They take a spoon and dip it in the bowl. They put the stuff in their mouths.
+
+"Yuck!" Tom says. "This stuff is not cake. It is bad."
+
+"Yuck!" Lily says. "This stuff is not good. It is icky."
+
+They spit out the stuff. They make a mess on the floor. They hear their mom coming.
+
+"Oh no! Mom will be mad," Tom says.
+
+"We need to clean up," Lily says.
+
+They look for a cloth. They find one on the counter. It is white and soft. They think it is helpful. They use it to wipe the floor.
+
+But the cloth is not a cloth. It is a napkin. It is mom's napkin. She made it herself. It has flowers on it.
+
+Mom sees the napkin. It is brown and sticky. It is ruined.
+
+"Tom! Lily! What did you do?" Mom says.
+
+"Sorry, mom," Tom and Lily say. "We wanted to taste the stuff. We thought it was cake. We used the napkin to clean up. We thought it was helpful."
+
+Mom sighs. She is not happy. She is sad.
+
+"The stuff is not cake. It is chocolate sauce. I made it for dessert. The napkin is not a cloth. It is a napkin. I made it for you. It is special," Mom says.
+
+Tom and Lily feel bad. They hug mom. They say sorry again.
+
+"Can we help you make more stuff?" Tom asks.
+
+"Can we help you make a new napkin?" Lily asks.
+
+Mom smiles. She is not mad. She is glad.
+
+"Okay, you can help me. But first, let's wash your hands and faces. You are very messy," Mom says.
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They follow mom to the sink. They wash up. They are ready to be helpful.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the sand near the sea. One day, they find a big shell. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They take turns to hold the shell and shake it. They hear a soft sound. "Maybe there is a pearl inside," Lily says. "Or a starfish," Ben says.
+
+They try to open the shell, but it is too hard. They pull and push, but nothing happens. They start to worry. "What if we break the shell?" Lily asks. "What if we hurt the animal inside?" Ben asks.
+
+They look around for help. They see a thin man with a hat and a bag. He is walking on the beach. They run to him and show him the shell. "Can you help us, please?" they ask.
+
+The man smiles and takes the shell. He looks at it and nods. "This is a clam," he says. "It is a kind of animal that lives in the sea. It can open and close its shell to protect itself. Sometimes it has a pearl inside, but not always."
+
+He puts the shell in his bag and takes out a small bottle. He opens it and pours some salt on the shell. "This is a trick," he says. "The salt makes the clam think it is in the sea. Then it will open its shell to breathe. But you have to be patient and wait."
+
+Lily and Ben watch the shell. They wait and wait. After a while, they see a small gap in the shell. They see a pink tongue inside. They clap their hands and cheer. The man gives them the shell. "Here you go," he says. "You can keep the clam as a friend. But you have to take good care of it. Give it some water and some food every day. And don't forget the salt."
+
+Lily and Ben thank the man and hug the shell. They are happy and curious. They want to see the pearl or the starfish. They run back to the sand and sit down. They gently open the shell and look inside. They see a shiny white pearl. They gasp and smile. They have found a treasure.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play on the farm. They loved to see the animals, especially the big bull. The bull was strong and had horns, but he was also gentle and friendly. He would let the boys pet him and feed him grass.
+
+One day, Tim and Sam saw a new sign on the bull's fence. It said, "Do not go near the bull. He is sick and may hurt you." The boys were sad and curious. They wanted to see their friend the bull and make him feel better.
+
+"Let's go and say hello to the bull," said Tim. "Maybe he will be happy to see us."
+
+"No, we should not," said Sam. "The sign says he is sick and may hurt us. We should listen to the sign and stay away."
+
+But Tim did not answer. He was stubborn and did not care about the sign. He climbed over the fence and ran towards the bull. Sam was scared and shouted, "Tim, come back! The bull is sick and may hurt you!"
+
+But it was too late. The bull saw Tim and did not recognize him. He thought Tim was a stranger who wanted to bother him. He was angry and in pain. He lowered his horns and charged at Tim. Tim was scared and tried to run away, but he tripped and fell. The bull was about to hit him with his horns.
+
+Sam was very brave. He ran over the fence and threw a stick at the bull. The stick hit the bull on the nose and made him stop. He looked at Sam and remembered him. He realized he had made a mistake. He was sorry and walked away. Sam helped Tim get up and they ran back to the fence. They were both shaken and hurt.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They learned to respect the signs and the animals. They learned to listen to each other and not be stubborn. They learned to be careful and kind. They still loved the bull, but they knew he needed space and time to heal. They hoped he would get better soon and be their lovely friend again.
+Tom and Mia were playing in their room. They had many toys, but they wanted the same one. It was a big truck with wheels and lights. Tom grabbed the truck and said, "This is mine! I saw it first!"
+
+Mia was angry. She tried to pull the truck from Tom's hands. She said, "No, this is mine! I like it more!"
+
+They both pulled and pulled. The truck was strong, but not strong enough. It broke in two pieces. Tom and Mia were shocked. They looked at the broken truck and felt sad.
+
+Then they heard a loud noise. They looked up and saw a hole in the ceiling. A bird had flown into their room. It had a shiny thing in its beak. It was a key. The bird dropped the key on the floor and flew away.
+
+Tom and Mia forgot about the truck. They ran to the key. They wondered what it could open. They looked around and saw a small door on the wall. They had never noticed it before. They decided to try the key.
+
+They put the key in the lock and turned it. The door opened. They saw a bright light and a rainbow. They heard music and laughter. They smelled flowers and candy. They felt curious and happy.
+
+They looked at each other and smiled. They said, "Let's go and see what's inside!"
+
+They held hands and walked through the door. They left the broken truck behind. They learned that sharing was better than being selfish. They had a new adventure.
+Mia and Leo were playing with their toys in the living room. Mia had a doll and Leo had a car. They were having fun, but they also knew they had to behave. Mommy and Daddy were busy in the kitchen, making dinner.
+
+Suddenly, Leo saw a string hanging from the curtain. He wanted to pull it and see what would happen. He left his car and ran to the window. Mia saw him and felt anxious. She knew that pulling the string was not a good idea.
+
+"Leo, no!" she shouted. "Don't pull the string! Mommy and Daddy will be mad!"
+
+But Leo did not listen. He grabbed the string and pulled it hard. The curtain came down with a loud noise. The string was attached to a rod that held the curtain. The rod fell on the floor and broke a vase.
+
+Mommy and Daddy heard the noise and came to the living room. They saw the mess and were very angry. They scolded Leo and told him he was naughty. They also praised Mia and told her she was good.
+
+Mia felt sorry for Leo. She knew he did not mean to make trouble. She gave him a hug and said, "It's okay, Leo. We all make mistakes. Next time, listen to me and behave."
+
+Leo felt ashamed and sad. He said, "I'm sorry, Mia. I'm sorry, Mommy and Daddy. I won't pull the string again. I will behave."
+
+Mommy and Daddy smiled and hugged them both. They said, "We love you, Mia and Leo. Now, let's clean up and have dinner."
+Tom is a boy who likes to play with cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He likes to make them go fast and make noises. One day, he wants to play with his red car, but he cannot find it. He looks under his bed, in his toy box, and behind the sofa, but he cannot see his red car.
+
+He asks his mom, "Mom, where is my red car? I want to play with it."
+
+Mom says, "I don't know, Tom. Maybe you left it in the garden. Why don't you go and look there?"
+
+Tom puts on his shoes and goes to the garden. He sees many flowers, bugs, and birds, but he does not see his red car. He feels sad and wants to cry. He walks around the garden, hoping to find his red car.
+
+He sees a man who is bald. The man is his neighbor, Mr. Lee. Mr. Lee is nice and likes to talk to Tom. He is holding a rake and a bag. He is cleaning the leaves from his lawn.
+
+"Hello, Tom," Mr. Lee says. "What are you doing in the garden?"
+
+"Hello, Mr. Lee," Tom says. "I am looking for my red car. I cannot find it. Have you seen it?"
+
+Mr. Lee thinks for a moment. He says, "Yes, I have seen your red car. It was on the road, near the turn. I picked it up and put it in my bag. I was going to give it back to you later. Here, you can have it now."
+
+Mr. Lee opens his bag and takes out Tom's red car. He gives it to Tom. Tom is very happy. He says, "Thank you, Mr. Lee. You are very kind. I am sorry I left my car on the road. I will be more careful next time."
+
+Mr. Lee smiles and says, "You are welcome, Tom. I am glad you found your car. Have fun playing with it. But remember, don't leave it on the road again. It is not safe."
+
+Tom nods and says, "I will remember, Mr. Lee. Goodbye."
+
+Tom runs back to his house with his red car. He hugs his mom and shows her his car. He says, "Mom, I found my red car. Mr. Lee had it. He gave it back to me. He is very nice."
+
+Mom says, "That's wonderful, Tom. I am happy for you. Mr. Lee is very nice indeed. You should say thank you to him again later. Now, why don't you play with your car in your room? And don't forget to put it away when you are done."
+
+Tom says, "Okay, Mom. I will. I love my red car. And I love you, Mom."
+
+Mom says, "I love you too, Tom."
+Anna and Ben liked to pretend they had jobs. Anna pretended she was a doctor and Ben pretended he was a firefighter. They had a toy stethoscope and a toy fire truck. They played in the backyard and helped their stuffed animals.
+
+One day, they saw a big poster on the fence. It said there was a contest for the best pretend job. The winner would get a prize. Anna and Ben wanted to win. They thought their jobs were the best. They were very competitive.
+
+They practiced their jobs every day. They made their animals sicker and sicker. They made their fires bigger and bigger. They tried to be faster and better than each other. They did not play together anymore. They only wanted to win.
+
+The day of the contest came. Anna and Ben went to the park with their toys. There were many other children who pretended they had jobs. There were teachers, chefs, astronauts, and more. Anna and Ben looked at them and thought they were not as good as them.
+
+The judge came and looked at all the children. He asked them questions and watched them work. He smiled and nodded. He wrote something on a paper. He said he had chosen the winner. Anna and Ben held their breath.
+
+The judge said the winner was...Lily! Lily pretended she was a gardener. She had a toy shovel and a toy watering can. She planted flowers and vegetables in a small patch of dirt. She shared them with the other children and the animals. She said she liked to make things grow and be happy.
+
+Anna and Ben were shocked. They did not understand. They thought their jobs were more important and more fun. They looked at their toys and their animals. They looked at each other. They felt sad and silly.
+
+They realized they had been too competitive. They had forgotten to have fun and to be kind. They had lost their friend and their joy. They said sorry to each other and to Lily. They asked if they could play with her. Lily said yes and gave them a flower and a carrot. They smiled and hugged.
+
+They learned that pretending was not about winning or being the best. It was about using their imagination and having fun. It was about sharing and caring. They decided to try different jobs and to play together. They were happy again.
+Lily was a baby girl who liked to sleep in her crib. She had a soft blanket, a pink pillow and a teddy bear to keep her company. Every night, her mommy would sing her a song and kiss her goodnight.
+
+One night, Lily woke up and saw a big shadow on the wall. It looked like a monster with long claws and sharp teeth. Lily was very scared and started to cry. She wanted her mommy to come and make the shadow go away.
+
+Mommy heard Lily crying and ran to her room. She turned on the light and saw the shadow on the wall. It was not a monster, it was just a tree branch moving in the wind. Mommy explained to Lily that there was nothing to be afraid of and that she was safe in her crib.
+
+Mommy hugged Lily and gave her a sip of water. She sang her another song and tucked her in. Lily felt better and stopped crying. She cuddled with her teddy bear and closed her eyes. She knew that mommy loved her and would always protect her. She fell asleep and had sweet dreams.

+But then, a farmer comes. He is angry. He says, "That is my egg! You stole it from my goose! Give it back to me!" He grabs the egg from the blanket. He walks away.
+
+Tom and Anna are sad. They cry. They say, "We are sorry, farmer. We did not know. We just wanted to see the baby. Please, let us see it when it hatches."
+
+The farmer stops. He looks at them. He sees their tears. He feels sorry. He says, "Okay, okay. You can see the baby. But you have to be careful. The egg is very fragile. And you have to be quiet. The goose is very protective. Come with me."
+
+He takes them to the nest. He shows them the egg. He says, "This is the mother goose. She is sitting on the egg. She is keeping it warm. She will hatch it soon. You can watch, but do not touch. And do not make noise. She might bite you."

+
+Anna laughs and follows Mimi. She says, "Be careful, Mimi, the bird might fly away!" But Mimi does not listen. She jumps from one branch to another, getting closer to the bird. The bird sees Mimi and gets scared. It flaps its wings and flies away.
+
+Mimi is sad and angry. She meows again and again. She does not want to play with Anna anymore. She jumps down from the tree and runs to the house. Anna runs after her and says, "Mimi, Mimi, come back! I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you mad. Please, play with me!"
+
+Mimi stops at the door and turns to Anna. She looks at her with serious eyes. She says, "Meow, meow, meow!" Anna does not understand what Mimi is saying, but she knows Mimi is not happy. She says, "Mimi, I love you. You are my best friend. Can we be friends again?" She hugs Mimi and kisses her.
+
+Mimi feels Anna's love and forgives her. She purrs and rubs her head against Anna. She says, "Meow, meow, meow!" Anna smiles and says, "Thank you, Mimi. You are very kind. Let's go inside and have some milk and cookies. Then we can play some more. OK?" Mimi nods and says, "Meow, meow, meow!" They go inside and have a good time. They are happy.

+Lily and Tom look at the soup. They see the vegetables floating in the broth. They make a face and say, "No, thank you, Mom. We do not want soup. We want pizza."
+
+Mom shakes her head and says, "No, pizza is not for lunch. Soup is for lunch. You have to try it. It is tasty and warm. Maybe you will like it."
+
+Lily and Tom do not want to make Mom sad. They love Mom. They decide to try the soup. They take a spoon and sip the broth. They are surprised. The broth is not yucky. It is salty and sweet. They take another spoon and eat a carrot. The carrot is not green. It is orange and crunchy. They take another spoon and eat a potato. The potato is not hard. It is soft and creamy.

+One day, Tom and Lily went to the park with their mom. They liked to play under the big oak tree, where they could find acorns and leaves. They also liked to chase the squirrels and birds that lived in the tree.
+
+"Look, mom, I found a big acorn!" Lily said, holding it in her hand.
+
+"Good for you, Lily. But be careful, don't throw it at the animals. They might get scared or angry," mom said.
+
+"OK, mom, I won't," Lily said. But she did not listen. She saw a squirrel on a branch and threw the acorn at it. The squirrel dodged the acorn and made a loud noise. It was very angry.
+
+"Hey, stop that! You are terrible!" the squirrel said. "This is my home, and these are my acorns. You can't take them or throw them at me!"
+
+Tom and Lily were surprised. They did not know that squirrels could talk. They felt sorry for the squirrel.
+
+"We are sorry, Mr. Squirrel. We did not mean to make you angry. We just wanted to play," Tom said.
+
+"Well, you can't play like that. It is not nice. It is not fun. It is mean," the squirrel said. "If you want to play, you have to be gentle and kind. Like this." The squirrel picked up an acorn and tossed it gently to Tom. Tom caught it and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Squirrel. That is fun. Can we play with you?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But only if you promise to never throw acorns at me or my friends again," the squirrel said.
+
+"We promise, Mr. Squirrel. We will never do that again," Lily said.
+
+"OK, then. Let's play. But first, let's scatter some acorns for the other animals. They might be hungry," the squirrel said.
+
+"OK, let's do that," Tom and Lily said.
+
+They scattered some acorns on the ground and then played with the squirrel and the birds. They had a lot of fun and learned to be nice to the animals. Mom watched them and smiled. She was happy that they made a new friend and learned a lesson.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. But it was very hot today. They felt thirsty and tired.
+
+"Let's go to the ice cream truck," Ben said. "I have some money in my pocket."
+
+"Good idea," Lily said. "I want a chocolate cone. What do you want?"
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He remembered something. He smiled.
+
+"I want a rainbow popsicle," he said. "Do you know why?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not know.
+
+"Because last time we had rainbow popsicles, we were very successful," Ben said. "We won the treasure hunt game at school. We found all the clues and got a prize."
+
+Lily nodded. She remembered too. They had a lot of fun that day. They were proud of themselves.
+
+"Maybe if we have rainbow popsicles again, we will be successful again," she said. "Maybe we will find more treasures in the park."
+
+Ben and Lily ran to the ice cream truck. They asked for rainbow popsicles. They paid with Ben's money. They licked their popsicles and felt cool and happy.
+
+They looked around the park. They saw flowers, trees, birds and squirrels. They wondered what treasures they could find.
+
+They decided to play a new game. They called it the rainbow treasure hunt. They made up their own clues and rules. They had a lot of fun. They were very successful.
+Lily and Ben like to play in the garden. They have a big brown bush that they pretend is a house. They make doors and windows with sticks and leaves. They have fun in their bush house.
+
+One day, Lily has an idea. She says to Ben, "Let's improve our bush house. Let's make it more pretty and cozy." Ben agrees. They look for things to decorate their bush house. They find some flowers, some rocks, some feathers, and some shells.
+
+They work hard to improve their bush house. They put flowers on the roof, rocks on the walls, feathers on the floor, and shells on the door. They make a sign that says "Lily and Ben's Bush House". They are very proud of their work.
+
+They invite their mom and dad to see their bush house. Mom and dad are very happy and surprised. They say, "Wow, you did a great job! Your bush house is very pretty and cozy. You are very creative and clever."

+Sara and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food for their dolls. Sara had a big pot of soup and Tom had a plate of cookies. They wanted to share their food with each other.
+
+"Can I have some soup, please?" Tom asked Sara.
+
+"Sure, you can have some soup. But you have to choose a fork first," Sara said. She had four forks on the table. One was shiny, one was red, one was big and one was old.
+
+Tom looked at the forks. He liked the shiny one, but Sara said it was hers. He liked the red one, but Sara said it was too spicy. He liked the big one, but Sara said it was too heavy. He did not like the old one, but Sara said it was the only one left.
+
+"Fine, I will take the old one," Tom said. He took the old fork and dipped it in the soup.
+
+"Be careful, that fork is dead," Sara said.
+
+"What do you mean, dead?" Tom asked.
+
+Sara did not answer. She smiled and watched Tom eat the soup. She knew that the old fork was dead because it had rust on it. She had found it in the trash and put it on the table as a trick. She thought it was funny.
+
+Tom did not think it was funny. He felt something sharp and bitter in his mouth. He spit out the soup and saw blood on his tongue. He felt a pain in his throat and his stomach. He dropped the fork and started to cry.
+
+"Help, help, I'm sick!" Tom shouted.
+
+But no one heard him. His mom and dad were outside, working in the garden. Sara ran away, scared and sorry. Tom fell on the floor, alone and dying. He wished he had chosen a different fork.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big forest behind their house. They wanted to go and explore it.
+
+"Can we go to the forest, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, you can't. It's too far and too dangerous. You might get lost or hurt. Stay in the yard, please," Mom said.
+
+But Lily and Ben were stubborn. They did not listen to Mom. They waited until she was busy in the kitchen and then they ran to the forest. They thought it was fun and exciting.
+
+They saw many trees and flowers and animals. They heard many sounds and smells. They ran and jumped and climbed. They did not see how far they went.
+
+"Look, a pond!" Ben said. He saw a shiny water with fish and frogs. He wanted to touch it.
+
+"Wait, Ben. We should go back. It's getting dark and Mom will be angry," Lily said. She was scared and tired.
+
+"No, I want to see the pond. Come on, Lily. Don't be a baby," Ben said. He was stubborn too. He ran to the pond and Lily followed him.
+
+But when they got to the pond, they saw something that made them scream. A big, black bear was drinking from the water. It saw them and growled. It was hungry and angry.
+
+Lily and Ben were very afraid. They wished they had listened to Mom. They turned around and ran as fast as they could. They hoped to find their way back home. They hoped the bear would not catch them. They hoped Mom would forgive them. They learned a lesson: never be too stubborn.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big cage with a sign that said "Lion". They wanted to see the lion, so they ran to the cage. But when they got there, they saw that the cage was empty. There was no lion inside.
+
+"Where is the lion?" Tim asked.
+
+"Maybe he is hiding," Sam said.
+
+They looked around the cage, but they could not find the lion. They felt sad and bored. They wanted to see the lion roar and jump.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise behind them. They turned around and saw a big, yellow lion standing outside the cage. The lion had escaped from the cage and was looking at them with hungry eyes.
+
+"Help!" Tim and Sam screamed.
+
+They ran away from the lion as fast as they could. They looked for their mom and dad, who were sitting on a bench nearby. They reached them and hugged them tight.
+
+"Mom, Dad, there is a lion!" Tim said.
+
+"A lion? Where?" Mom asked.
+
+"Over there, by the cage!" Sam said.
+
+Mom and Dad looked at the cage and saw the lion. They were shocked and scared. They grabbed Tim and Sam and ran to the park exit. They called the zookeepers and told them about the lion.
+
+The zookeepers came and caught the lion. They put him back in the cage and locked it. They said they were sorry for the trouble and that the lion had suffered a lot in the empty cage. They said they would find a better home for the lion, where he could be happy and free.

+Tim and Sam felt sorry for the lion too. They hoped he would find a good home. They also learned a lesson: never go near a cage with a sign that says "Lion".
+Lily was a clumsy girl. She liked to run and jump and play, but she often fell and hurt herself. One day, she was playing with her ball in the park, when she tripped over a rock and scraped her knee. It was very red and sore, and she started to cry.

+"Ow, ow, ow!" she wailed. "Mommy, help me!"
+
+Her mommy came running and saw her knee. She hugged her and said, "Don't worry, Lily. We'll go to the doctor and he'll make it better. He has a magic cream that will make the pain go away."
+
+She picked up Lily and carried her to the car. Lily held her ball in her arms and sniffled. She was scared of the doctor. She had heard that he had a big needle that he used to poke people. She didn't want to be poked.
