+"I know. He is not nice. He is fierce," Mia says.
+
+They hug each other and wait for the bear to go away. They hope he will not come back. They wish they had a dog to protect them. They miss their snowman.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big parade. There are many people and animals. They wear colorful clothes and hats. They make loud noises and music.
+
+"Look, Lily, a parade!" Ben says. "Let's march with them!"
+
+"OK, Ben, that sounds fun!" Lily says. They run to the parade and join the line. They march and clap and sing. They feel happy and excited.
+
+But not everyone likes the parade. A man sits on a bench. He is lazy and grumpy. He does not like the noise and the music. He wants to read his book. He sees Lily and Ben. He thinks they are silly and noisy.
+
+"Hey, you two, stop marching!" the man shouts. "You are ruining my peace!"
+
+Lily and Ben hear the man. They are scared and sad. They stop marching. They look at the man. He looks angry and mean.
+
+"Sorry, sir, we just wanted to have fun," Lily says.
+
+"Yeah, we like the parade," Ben says.
+
+"Well, I don't!" the man says. "Go away and leave me alone!"
+
+Lily and Ben feel bad. They want to make the man happy. They think of a joke. They whisper to each other. They smile and nod.
+
+"OK, sir, we will go away," Lily says. "But first, can we tell you a joke?"
+
+"A joke?" the man says. "What joke?"
+
+Lily and Ben say the joke together. They say:
+
+"Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+The man rolls his eyes. He says:
+
+"I don't know, why?"
+
+Lily and Ben say:
+
+"To march with the parade!"
+
+They laugh and giggle. They think the joke is funny. They hope the man will laugh too.
+
+But the man does not laugh. He frowns and snorts. He says:
+
+"That's not a joke, that's nonsense!"
+
+He shakes his head and goes back to his book. He ignores Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben shrug and smile. They think the man is silly and grumpy. They do not care what he says. They run back to the parade. They march and clap and sing. They feel happy and excited. They have fun.
+Tom and Lily were very excited to see the fireworks. They had never seen them before. They wore warm coats and hats and went with their mom and dad to the park. There were many people and lights and noises.
+
+"Look, mom, look!" Tom shouted, pointing at the sky. "Fireworks! They are so pretty and bright!"
+
+"Yes, they are, Tom. They are very interesting. Do you know how they work?" Mom asked.
+
+"No, how?" Lily asked.
+
+"Well, they are like big rockets that fly very high and then break into many colors. They make loud sounds too. But they are not toys. They can be very dangerous if you touch them or play with them. You have to be careful and stay away from them." Mom explained.
+
+"OK, mom. We will be careful. We just want to watch them." Tom and Lily said.
+
+They watched the fireworks for a long time. They saw red, blue, green, yellow, and purple fireworks. They saw fireworks that looked like stars, flowers, hearts, and smileys. They oohed and aahed and clapped their hands. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, something bad happened. One of the fireworks did not fly high enough. It fell down and landed near a trash can. It started a small fire. The fire grew bigger and bigger. It made smoke and heat.
+
+"Fire! Fire!" People shouted. They ran away from the fire. They were scared and worried.
+
+"Mom, dad, what's happening?" Tom and Lily asked. They were scared too.
+
+"Don't worry, kids. We have to move away from the fire. It's not safe here. Come on, follow us." Mom and dad said. They took Tom and Lily by the hand and walked quickly to a safe place.
+
+Soon, the firemen came. They had big trucks and hoses and helmets. They sprayed water on the fire. They put out the fire. They checked if anyone was hurt. They were brave and helpful.
+
+"Wow, the firemen are amazing!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, they are. They saved the day. They stopped the fire." Lily said.
+
+"Are you OK, kids? Are you hurt?" Mom and dad asked.
+
+"We are OK, mom, dad. We are not hurt. But we are sad. The fire ruined the fireworks. They were so interesting." Tom and Lily said.
+
+"I know, kids. It was a bad accident. But we are lucky that no one was badly hurt. And we still have each other. That's what matters most." Mom and dad said. They hugged Tom and Lily.
+
+"Can we see the fireworks again someday?" Tom and Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, kids. Someday, we will see the fireworks again. And they will be even more interesting and beautiful. But for now, let's go home and have some hot chocolate. How does that sound?" Mom and dad asked.
+
+"That sounds good, mom, dad. We love you." Tom and Lily said.
+
+They smiled and went home. They had a big adventure. They learned a lot. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide on the big slide. It was fun and fast. They took turns to go down the slide.
+
+One time, Lily saw something on the slide. It was small and black. It had six legs and two feelers. It was an ant. Lily liked ants. She wanted to say hello to the ant.
+
+"Hi, ant!" Lily said. "Do you want to slide with me?"
+
+The ant looked at Lily. It did not understand her. It was scared of the big girl. It wanted to go away.
+
+"Go, go, go!" the ant said to itself. It ran down the slide as fast as it could.
+
+Lily followed the ant. She slid down the slide too. She tried to catch the ant. But the ant was too quick. It jumped off the slide and ran into the grass.
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to be friends with the ant. She looked at the grass. She could not see the ant.
+
+"Where did the ant go?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben came to Lily. He saw her face. He knew she was sad.
+
+"Don't be sad, Lily," Ben said. "There are many ants in the park. Maybe you can find another ant to play with. Or we can play something else. Do you want to swing or climb or run?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She still liked ants. But she liked Ben too. He was her best friend. He always made her happy.
+
+"OK, Ben," Lily said. "Let's swing. Swinging is fun too. Maybe we can see the ant from the swing. Maybe it will come back to the slide. Maybe it will want to play with us."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They held hands and ran to the swing. They swung high and low. They laughed and sang. They had a perfect day.
+Ben likes to touch things. He likes to touch his toys, his books, his cat. He likes to touch everything he sees. One day, he sees something new in the garage. It is shiny and pointy. It is a nail.
+
+Ben wants to touch the nail. He thinks it is interesting. He does not know that the nail is sharp and can hurt him. He reaches out his hand and grabs the nail. Ouch! The nail pokes his finger. It makes a hole and blood comes out. Ben cries and drops the nail.
+
+Mom hears Ben cry and runs to the garage. She sees the nail and the blood. She is scared and angry. She picks up Ben and takes him to the bathroom. She washes his finger and puts a band-aid on it. She tells Ben that he should not touch things that he does not know. She tells him that the nail is dangerous and can make him sick. She tells him that he is naughty and makes her worry.
+
+Ben feels sorry and sad. He says he is sorry to Mom. He says he will not touch the nail again. He says he will listen to Mom. Mom hugs him and says she loves him. She says he should be careful and ask before he touches things. She says she will help him find safe and interesting things to touch.
+
+Ben nods and smiles. He says he loves Mom too. He says he will be good. He hopes Mom will forgive him. He hopes his finger will heal soon. He does not like the nail anymore. He thinks it is bad and mean. He wishes he never touched it.
+Jill and Tom were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big slide that looked very fun. Jill wanted to go first, but Tom insisted that he should go first. He said he was older by two minutes and he was braver than Jill.
+
+Jill was sad and angry, but she let Tom go first. She waited at the bottom of the slide, hoping he would be quick. But Tom was careless. He did not hold on to the rail or sit properly. He slid too fast and bumped his head on the metal bar. He cried out loud and fell to the ground.
+
+Jill ran to him and hugged him. She asked him if he was okay. Tom said he was sorry for being mean and he had a big bump on his head. He said he wanted to go home and have a treat. Jill said she wanted a treat too, and she helped him get up.
+
+They walked to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. She saw Tom's bump and Jill's tears and asked them what happened. They told her about the slide and how Tom was careless and Jill was nice. Mom said they were both brave and she was proud of them. She said she had a surprise for them in her bag.
+
+She took out two ice creams and gave one to each of them. They smiled and licked their ice creams. They said thank you to mom and said they loved her. Mom said she loved them too and hugged them. They felt better and enjoyed their treat. They learned to be more careful and share the slide.
+Lily was a girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had long hair and a pink dress. Lily liked to brush Anna's hair and make her talk.
+
+One day, Lily's brother Tom came into her room. He was bored and wanted to play with Lily. But he did not like dolls. He liked cars and trucks and robots. He saw Anna on Lily's bed and grabbed her.
+
+"Give me that!" he said. "I want to make her fly!"
+
+Lily was angry. She loved Anna and did not want Tom to hurt her. She ran after him and tried to get Anna back.
+
+"Stop it!" she yelled. "Anna is mine! You are crazy!"
+
+Tom laughed and ran away. He threw Anna in the air and caught her. He thought it was fun. He did not care that Lily was sad.
+
+Lily cried and followed him. She wanted her doll back. She yelled again and again, but Tom did not listen. He ran to the living room and threw Anna on the couch.
+
+Lily ran to the couch and grabbed Anna. She hugged her and checked if she was okay. She was glad that Anna was not broken. She looked at Tom and glared.
+
+"You are mean!" she said. "You are not my friend!"
+
+Tom shrugged and walked away. He did not say sorry. He did not like dolls. He did not like Lily.
+
+Lily took Anna to her room and closed the door. She did not want to play with Tom. She only wanted to play with Anna. She brushed her hair and made her talk.
+
+"I love you, Anna," she said. "You are my best friend."
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had a big box of toys in their room, but they wanted to see what was in the other rooms. They decided to crawl out of their room and explore the house.
+
+They crawled along the hall and saw a door that was a little open. They pushed it and saw a bright room with a big bed and a lot of shiny things. They crawled inside and saw a necklace with a shiny stone on a table. Lily wanted to touch it and said, "Look, Ben, pretty!"
+
+Ben saw the necklace and said, "No, Lily, no touch! Mommy's!" He knew that the necklace was Mommy's and that she would be angry if they touched it. But Lily did not listen and reached for the necklace.
+
+As soon as she touched it, the necklace broke and the shiny stone fell on the floor. It rolled under the bed and they could not see it. Lily and Ben were scared and said, "Uh-oh!"
+
+Mommy heard the noise and came to the room. She saw the broken necklace and the twins on the floor. She was very angry and said, "What did you do? This was my special necklace! You are very naughty!"
+
+She picked up the twins and took them to their room. She put them in their beds and said, "You have to stay here and think about what you did. No toys, no snacks, no stories. I am very sad and disappointed in you."
+
+Lily and Ben felt very bad and cried. They were not proud of what they did. They wished they had listened to Ben and not touched the necklace. They learned that crawling and exploring can have a bad result.
+Tom and Lily wanted to play catch with their ball. They went to the park with their mom and dad. The park had a big field and a stage. On the stage, there was a band. The band had drums, guitars, and singers. They made loud and fun music.
+
+Tom and Lily threw the ball to each other. They ran and jumped and laughed. They liked the music too. They wanted to see the band better. They asked their mom and dad if they could go closer to the stage. Their mom and dad said yes, but they had to stay together and be careful.
+
+Tom and Lily walked to the stage. They saw the band was very organized. They had a leader who told them what to play and when to start and stop. They had a list of songs and a timer. They had matching clothes and hats. They looked cool and happy.
+
+Tom and Lily wanted to be like the band. They decided to make their own band. They used the ball as a drum, their hands as guitars, and their mouths as singers. They made up their own songs and names. They had fun and made noise.
+
+But they did not see the ball roll away. The ball went to the edge of the stage. It fell down and bounced on the ground. A dog saw the ball and ran to it. The dog caught the ball in its mouth and ran away.
+
+Tom and Lily saw the dog and the ball. They shouted and chased the dog. They wanted their ball back. They forgot about their band and their mom and dad. They ran across the field and out of the park.
+
+The band saw Tom and Lily and the dog and the ball. They stopped playing and looked. They wondered what was going on. They hoped Tom and Lily would be okay. They hoped the dog would be nice. They hoped someone would find them and bring them back. They hoped they would not miss their next song.
+Ben and Lily were playing with crayons in their home. They liked to draw on paper, but sometimes they also drew on the wall. Mom did not like that. She said it was bad and they had to wipe it off.
+
+One day, Ben had a new idea. He wanted to draw a big sun on the window. He thought it would look nice and bright. He took a yellow crayon and started to draw on the glass. Lily saw him and wanted to join. She took a red crayon and drew a big heart next to the sun.
+
+Mom came into the room and saw the window. She was very angry. She said, "What have you done? You have made a big mess on the window. You have to wipe it off right now. And you have to say sorry to me and to the window."
+
+Ben and Lily felt bad. They did not want to make Mom angry. They said, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, window. We will wipe it off." They took a cloth and some water and tried to wipe off the crayons. But it was hard. The crayons did not come off easily. They had to rub and rub and rub.
+
+Mom saw them working hard. She was still angry, but she also felt sorry for them. She said, "I know you like to draw, but you have to be careful where you draw. The window is not for drawing. It is for looking outside. Next time, use paper or a board. And ask me first. OK?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They said, "OK, Mom. We understand. We are sorry. We love you." They gave Mom a hug and a kiss. Mom smiled and hugged them back. She said, "I love you too. Now, let's finish wiping the window and then we can have a snack." They all went to the kitchen and had some cookies and milk. They were happy again.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run, slide and swing. But they were not happy today. The park was boring. There were no other kids to play with. There were no flowers or animals to see. There was only grass and dirt.
+
+"Let's go home," Sara said. "This park is boring."
+
+"No, let's stay," Ben said. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+He looked around and saw a big pile of leaves. He ran to it and jumped in. He laughed and threw leaves in the air.
+
+"Come on, Sara, join me!" he said.
+
+Sara walked to the pile of leaves. She did not want to jump in. She thought it was dirty and messy. She kicked some leaves with her foot. She saw something shiny under the leaves. She bent down and picked it up.
+
+"Look, Ben, what is this?" she said.
+
+Ben came out of the pile of leaves. He looked at what Sara had. It was a small white thing. It had a hole in the middle and some bumps on the sides.
+
+"It's a skeleton," Ben said. "A skeleton is what is inside your body. It holds you up and makes you strong."
+
+"Really?" Sara said. "That's cool. Where did it come from?"
+
+"Maybe it was a bird or a mouse," Ben said. "Maybe it died and no one buried it. Then the leaves covered it and it became a skeleton."
+
+"That's sad," Sara said. "Poor bird or mouse. I don't like skeletons. They are scary and sad."
+
+She dropped the skeleton and ran away. She did not want to play in the park anymore. She wanted to go home.
+
+Ben picked up the skeleton. He did not think it was scary or sad. He thought it was interesting and cool. He wanted to keep it and show it to his mom and dad. He put it in his pocket and followed Sara.
+
+He did not want to remain in the park either. He wanted to go home and play with his new skeleton.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the park with their dog, Spot. Spot is a big, brown dog. He can run very fast and catch a ball.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily go to the park with Spot and their mom. They have a lot of fun. They slide, swing, and climb. They throw the ball for Spot and he runs after it. He brings it back and wags his tail.
+
+"Good boy, Spot!" Tom and Lily say. They pet him and give him a treat.
+
+"Time to go home, kids," their mom says. "Dinner is ready."
+
+Tom and Lily are hungry. They run to their mom and hold her hands. They say goodbye to the park and walk home.
+
+"What's for dinner, mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"Spaghetti and meatballs, your favorite," their mom says.
+
+"Yay!" Tom and Lily say. They love spaghetti and meatballs. They think they are lucky to have such a yummy dinner.
+
+They get home and wash their hands. They sit at the table and wait for their mom to serve them. Spot lies under the table and hopes for some scraps.
+
+"Here you go, kids. Enjoy your dinner," their mom says. She puts a big plate of spaghetti and meatballs in front of them.
+
+"Thank you, mom!" Tom and Lily say. They dig in and eat with big smiles. They share some meatballs with Spot. He licks his lips and wags his tail.
+
+They finish their dinner and ask for more. Their mom gives them more. They eat until they are full. They thank their mom again and give her a hug and a kiss.
+
+They are happy and sleepy. They brush their teeth and put on their pajamas. They go to bed and cuddle with Spot. They dream of the park and the ball and the spaghetti and meatballs.
+
+They think they are lucky to have such a fun day and a loving family.
+Tom was a tall boy who liked to play with his ball. He would throw it high in the air and catch it in his palm. He was very good at it and he was proud of himself. He did not like to share his ball with anyone. He would say, "This is my ball, go away!"
+
+One day, he went to the park with his ball. He saw a little girl who was sitting on a bench. She had no toys and she looked sad. Tom thought she was boring and he did not want to play with her. He threw his ball high in the air and said, "Look at me, I am so good!"
+
+The little girl looked at him and smiled. She said, "Can I play with you? Your ball looks fun." Tom did not like her smile. He said, "No, you can't. This is my ball, go away!" He threw his ball again, but this time, he threw it too far. It went over the fence and into the street.
+
+Tom ran after his ball. He did not look both ways. He did not see the big car that was coming fast. The car hit him and he fell down. He was hurt and he cried. He dropped his ball and it rolled away. The little girl saw what happened and she ran to help him. She called for help and she held his hand. She said, "I am sorry, I hope you are okay."
+
+Tom felt sorry too. He wished he had been nice to the little girl. He wished he had shared his ball with her. He learned that being selfish and rude is not good. He learned that being kind and friendly is better. He said, "Thank you, you are a good friend. Can I play with you?" The little girl said, "Yes, you can. But first, we have to go to the doctor. Come on, let's go."
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: Sharing is caring. Be kind to others. Look both ways before crossing the street.
+Lily was a girl who liked to help her dad. Her dad was a farmer who had cows and sheep and chickens. He also had a big truck that he used to deliver beef and wool and eggs to the shops in town.
+
+One day, Lily asked her dad if she could go with him to deliver beef. Her dad said yes, but only if she was very good and listened to him. Lily was happy and promised to be good. She put on her hat and boots and climbed into the truck with her dad.
+
+They drove for a long time, past fields and trees and houses. Lily saw many things and asked her dad many questions. Her dad answered her questions and told her stories. He was a wise dad who knew a lot of things.
+
+They arrived at the first shop, where a man was waiting for them. He helped Lily's dad unload some boxes of beef from the truck. He thanked Lily's dad and gave him some money. He also gave Lily a lollipop. Lily said thank you and smiled.
+
+They went to two more shops and did the same thing. Lily enjoyed the lollipop and the ride. She also liked to see the people and the shops. She learned a lot from her dad.
+
+They finished delivering beef and started to go back home. Lily was tired and sleepy. She cuddled with her dad and closed her eyes. Her dad told her he was proud of her and that she was a good helper. Lily felt happy and warm. She had a good day.
+Lily and Tom love to play with their football. They take turns to kick it and catch it in the garden. Sometimes they hop on one foot and try to balance the football on their other foot. They laugh when the football falls off and rolls away.
+
+One day, a big dog comes into the garden. He sees the football and thinks it is a toy. He runs after it and grabs it with his teeth. He shakes it and makes it squeak. Lily and Tom are scared. They want their football back.
+
+They shout at the dog and wave their arms. The dog thinks they want to play too. He hops around with the football in his mouth. He is very fast and strong. He is not graceful like Lily and Tom. He knocks over the flowers and the chairs. He makes a big mess.
+
+Lily and Tom run to the house and tell their mum. Their mum comes out and sees the dog. She is not happy. She calls the dog's owner and tells him to come and get his dog. She says the dog is naughty and rude. She says he has to pay for a new football and fix the garden.
+
+The dog's owner comes and takes the dog away. He says he is sorry and gives Lily and Tom some money. He says he will buy them a new football and help their mum with the garden. Lily and Tom are glad. They say thank you and goodbye. They hope the dog will learn to be nice and share. They can't wait to play with their new football.
+Lily and Ben are having pasta for lunch. They like pasta very much. They can choose what sauce they want. Lily wants cheese sauce. Ben wants tomato sauce.
+
+"Can I put cheese on your pasta, Ben?" Lily asks.
+
+"No, thank you. I like tomato sauce. Cheese is silly on pasta," Ben says.
+
+Lily thinks cheese is yummy on pasta. She puts a lot of cheese on her pasta. She also puts some cheese on her nose. She thinks it is funny.
+
+"Look, Ben. I have cheese on my nose. I am a cheese monster," Lily says.
+
+Ben laughs. He thinks Lily is silly. He also wants to be silly. He puts some tomato sauce on his ears. He thinks it is funny.
+
+"Look, Lily. I have tomato sauce on my ears. I am a tomato monster," Ben says.
+
+Lily and Ben giggle. They are both silly monsters. They eat their pasta and make funny noises. They have a lot of fun.
+Anna likes to create things with her crayons and paper. She makes pictures of her family, her dog, and her toys. She is very proud of her creations and shows them to her mom and dad.
+
+One day, Anna has a visit from her cousin Lily. Lily is older than Anna and likes to play with dolls and puzzles. Lily sees Anna's pictures and says, "What are these? They are ugly and messy. You can't draw well. You only use thick lines and weird colors."
+
+Anna feels sad and angry. She says, "No, they are not ugly. They are beautiful and special. They are my creations. You are mean and rude. You can't say that to me."
+
+Lily laughs and says, "Yes, I can. You are a baby and you don't know anything. I can do whatever I want. Watch this." She grabs Anna's pictures and tears them into pieces. She throws them on the floor and stomps on them.
+
+Anna cries and screams. She runs to her mom and dad and tells them what Lily did. They are shocked and angry. They scold Lily and tell her to apologize. Lily says, "No, I won't. I don't care. She deserved it."
+
+Anna's mom and dad tell Lily to leave and never come back. They hug Anna and try to comfort her. They say, "We are sorry, Anna. Lily was very mean and wrong. We love you and your creations. You are a wonderful and talented artist. Don't let anyone make you feel bad."
+
+But Anna is still sad and hurt. She looks at the pieces of her pictures and feels like her heart is broken. She says, "I don't want to create anymore. I don't want to visit anyone anymore. I don't want to do anything anymore." She goes to her room and lies on her bed. She closes her eyes and wishes she could disappear.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play and have fun. Today is a special day. Mom and Dad say they can go to the zoo. Tom and Lily are very happy. They want to see the animals.
+
+They get in the car and drive to the zoo. They see a big sign with a lion on it. They say, "Look, Mom, look, Dad, a lion!" Mom and Dad smile and park the car. They buy tickets and enter the zoo.
+
+The zoo is full of animals. Tom and Lily run from one cage to another. They see monkeys, elephants, giraffes, penguins, and more. They laugh and clap their hands. They want to touch the animals, but Mom and Dad say, "No, no, you can't touch them. They might bite or scratch you. You can look at them and say hello."
+
+Tom and Lily listen to Mom and Dad. They look at the animals and say hello. They also learn their names and sounds. They say, "This is a zebra. It has black and white stripes. It says neigh." They say, "This is a bear. It has brown fur. It says roar."
+
+After a while, Tom and Lily are hungry. Mom and Dad say, "Let's go to the cafeteria and have some lunch." They go to the cafeteria and buy some sandwiches, fruits, and juice. They sit at a table and eat. Tom and Lily say, "This is yummy. Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Dad." Mom and Dad say, "You're welcome. We're glad you like it."
+
+Tom and Lily finish their lunch and drink their juice. They say, "Can we see more animals, please?" Mom and Dad say, "Yes, of course. There are still more animals to see. Come on, let's go." They get up and throw their trash in the bin. They hold hands and walk to the next cage. They are ready for more fun at the zoo.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They want to make him look more funny, so they look for something to give him a nose and eyes.
+
+"Look, Sara, I found some powder in the shed!" Ben says. He shows Sara a can of red powder that dad uses for painting. "We can use this to make the snowman's nose!"
+
+"Good idea, Ben!" Sara says. "But how can we carry it? The can is too heavy for me."
+
+"I can carry it, Sara. I am strong!" Ben says. He picks up the can and tries to walk to the snowman. But the can is too heavy for him too. He falls down and the powder spills all over the snow.
+
+"Oh no, Ben, you made a mess!" Sara says. She runs to help him. "Are you okay?"
+
+"I'm okay, Sara, but I'm tired." Ben says. He gets up and brushes off the snow. "And the powder is gone. Now we can't make the snowman's nose."
+
+Sara looks at the snowman. She sees that some of the powder has stuck to his face. She smiles and says, "Don't be sad, Ben. Look, the snowman has a red nose now! And he has red eyes too! He looks very funny!"
+
+Ben looks at the snowman too. He sees that Sara is right. He smiles and says, "You're right, Sara. He does look funny! He looks like a clown!"
+
+Sara and Ben laugh and hug each other. They are happy with their snowman. They forget that they are tired and cold. They keep playing in the snow until mom calls them for lunch.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the sand. They had a big bucket and two spades. They wanted to make a castle with towers and walls. They were eager to finish before the sun went down.
+
+But then they had a problem. They both wanted the same spade. It was blue and shiny and had a star on it. Ben said, "It's mine! I saw it first!" Lily said, "No, it's mine! I like it more!" They pulled and tugged on the spade. They started to fight.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" said Mom, who was watching from a bench. "You have to share. There are two spades and two of you. You can take turns or use the other spade. Fighting is not nice."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at Mom. They felt sorry. They did not want to make Mom angry. They did not want to hurt each other. They let go of the spade. They said, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Ben. Sorry, Lily."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "That's better. Now, why don't you work together and make a beautiful castle? I'm sure you can do it." She gave them a hug and a kiss.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They picked up their spades and went back to the sand. They decided to use the blue spade for the towers and the red spade for the walls. They helped each other and had fun. They made a big and pretty castle. They were proud and happy. They showed Mom their castle and she said, "Wow, that's amazing! You did a great job!" They thanked Mom and gave her a hug and a kiss. They played until the sun went down.
+Anna and Ben love to go to the beach with Mom and Dad. They like to play in the sand and splash in the water. Sometimes they see fish and crabs and shells. They have a lot of fun.
+
+One day, they decide to act like pirates. They find a big stick and a scarf and make a flag. They dig a hole and bury a box of cookies. They draw a map with a stick. They say "Arrr" and "Ahoy" and pretend to sail a ship.
+
+Mom and Dad watch them and smile. They think Anna and Ben are very impressive. They are good at acting and using their imagination. They join them and act like pirates too. They follow the map and find the cookies. They share them and enjoy the treat.
+
+They all have a great day at the beach. They act like pirates and have an adventure. They are happy and proud. They love each other very much.
+Lila and Ben are playing with blocks in the living room. They are making a big tower with many colors. Lila likes the blue blocks and Ben likes the red blocks. They are having fun.
+
+But then, Mom comes in and says, "Lila, Ben, it's time to leave. We have to go to the store and buy some food. Put your blocks away and get your coats."
+
+Lila and Ben do not want to leave. They want to play more. They say, "No, Mom, please, can we stay? We are not done with our tower. It is very tall and pretty."
+
+Mom says, "I'm sorry, but we have to go. The store will close soon and we need to get some bread and milk and eggs. You can play with your blocks later, when we come back. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lila and Ben are sad. They start to put their blocks away, but they are slow. They hope Mom will change her mind and let them stay. But Mom does not change her mind. She says, "Hurry up, we have to go now."
+
+Lila and Ben follow Mom to the door. They put on their coats and shoes. But as they are going out, Ben trips on a gray rug and falls down. He hurts his knee and starts to cry. He says, "Ow, ow, ow, my knee, my knee, it hurts!"
+
+Mom runs to Ben and hugs him. She says, "Oh, Ben, I'm sorry, are you okay? Let me see your knee. Does it bleed?"
+
+She looks at Ben's knee and sees a small scratch. She says, "It's okay, Ben, it's not a big cut. It will heal soon. Here, let me kiss it and make it better."
+
+She kisses Ben's knee and rubs it gently. Ben stops crying and smiles. He says, "Thank you, Mom, you are nice. My knee feels better now."
+
+Mom says, "You're welcome, Ben, I love you. Now, are you ready to go to the store with me and Lila?"
+
+Ben nods and says, "Yes, Mom, I'm ready. Let's go."
+
+He takes Mom's hand and Lila's hand and they go out of the door. They leave their blocks behind, but they know they can play with them again when they come back. They are still sad, but they are also brave and curious. They wonder what they will see at the store and what they will buy. They hope they will find some cookies or candy or something yummy. They walk to the car and get in. Mom starts the engine and drives away. The end.
+Lila and Tom were playing with their toy rockets. They wanted to go to space and see the stars and planets. They put on their helmets and got inside their rockets.
+
+"Ready for blast off?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Lila said.
+
+They pushed the buttons and made loud noises. Their rockets flew up in the air and zoomed past the clouds. They saw the sun and the moon and many shiny dots.
+
+"Wow, space is so big and pretty!" Lila said.
+
+"Look, there is a big red planet. Let's go there!" Tom said.
+
+They steered their rockets towards the planet. It looked like a giant ball of fire. They got closer and closer.
+
+"Maybe there are aliens there. Maybe they are friendly. Maybe they have yummy food for us," Lila said.
+
+"Maybe they do. Maybe we can deliver them some of our cookies. We have some in our backpacks," Tom said.
+
+They reached the planet and landed on a flat spot. They got out of their rockets and took out their cookies. They looked around for aliens.
+
+"Hello, is anyone here?" Tom called.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud roar. A huge monster came out of a cave. It had sharp teeth and claws and horns. It saw Lila and Tom and their cookies.
+
+"Food!" it shouted.
+
+It ran towards them and grabbed them and their cookies. It stuffed them in its mouth and chewed them.
+
+"Mmm, yummy!" it said.
+
+Lila and Tom screamed and cried. They wished they never came to this planet. They wished they were back home with their mom and dad. But it was too late. The monster swallowed them and their cookies. They were gone.
+
+The end.
+Tim and Mia are playing in the backyard. They like to pretend they are animals. Tim is a lion and Mia is a bird. They run and jump and make noises.
+
+"Roar!" Tim says. He chases Mia around the tree.
+
+"Tweet!" Mia says. She flies to the roof of the house.
+
+"Come down, bird!" Tim says. He tries to climb the wall, but he is too small.
+
+"No, lion!" Mia says. She likes to be on the roof. She can see everything from there.
+
+Tim is sad. He wants to play with Mia, but he cannot reach her. He sits on the grass and looks at the sky.
+
+"Why are you on the roof, Mia?" he questions.
+
+"Because it is fun, Tim!" Mia answers. "I can see the sun and the clouds and the flowers. Do you want to see?"
+
+"Yes, I do!" Tim says. He likes to see new things.
+
+"Okay, wait here!" Mia says. She flies to the window and knocks on it. Mom opens the window and sees Mia.
+
+"Mia, what are you doing on the roof?" Mom asks.
+
+"I am a bird, Mom!" Mia says. "Can you help me and Tim?"
+
+Mom smiles. She is not angry. She knows Mia and Tim are playing. She helps Mia get down from the roof and then helps Tim get up. Tim and Mia hug Mom.
+
+"Thank you, Mom!" they say. They are grateful for Mom.
+
+"You're welcome, my little animals!" Mom says. She is happy to see them happy. She watches them as they look at the view from the roof. They see the sun and the clouds and the flowers. They are happy, too.
+Tom had a birdcage with two birds in it. He liked to watch them sing and fly. One day, he saw a big bird outside his window. It was red and yellow and very pretty. Tom wanted to have it in his birdcage too.
+
+He opened the window and the birdcage door. He tried to catch the big bird with his hands. But the big bird was fast and smart. It flew away from Tom and into the birdcage. It saw the two birds and got angry. It started to peck and bite them. The two birds were scared and hurt.
+
+Tom heard them cry and saw them bleed. He felt terrible. He wanted to help them, but he was afraid of the big bird. He ran to his mom and told her what happened. She came with him and saw the mess. She was angry and sad. She took the big bird out of the birdcage and let it go. She took the two birds to the vet. She told Tom he was very naughty and he had to say sorry to the birds.
+
+Tom learned his lesson. He never tried to catch another bird again. He took good care of his two birds and gave them food and water and toys. He hoped they would forgive him and sing and fly again. He realized that more is not always better. Sometimes, it can increase the trouble.
+Tom and Sam were brothers. They liked to play in the mud. They made mud pies and mud castles. They got filthy.
+
+One day, they saw a letter on the door. It was from Santa. He said he was watching them. He said he would bring them toys if they were good. He said he would not bring them toys if they were bad.
+
+Tom and Sam looked at each other. They were scared. They wanted toys. They did not want to be bad.
+
+"Let's go wash up," Tom said. "Maybe Santa will forgive us."
+
+"No, let's not," Sam said. "I don't believe in Santa. He is not real. He is a lie. This letter is a trick."
+
+Tom and Sam started to fight. They pushed and pulled and yelled. They tore the letter in half.
+
+Mom heard the noise. She came to the door. She saw the mud and the letter. She was angry.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asked. "Why are you so filthy? Why did you rip the letter?"
+
+Tom and Sam stopped fighting. They hung their heads. They did not know what to say.
+
+Mom sighed. She took them inside. She gave them a bath. She gave them a hug. She gave them a talk.
+
+"Santa is real," she said. "He loves you. He wants you to be good. He wrote you the letter to remind you. He is not a lie. He is not a trick. You have to believe in him. And you have to believe in each other. You are brothers. You should not fight. You should help and share and care."
+
+Tom and Sam felt sorry. They said sorry to Mom. They said sorry to each other. They said sorry to Santa. They promised to be good.
+
+Mom smiled. She dried them off. She gave them cookies. She gave them a new letter. It was from Santa. He said he was proud of them. He said he would bring them toys. He said he loved them.
+
+Tom and Sam smiled. They hugged Mom. They hugged each other. They hugged the letter. They believed in Santa. They believed in Mom. They believed in themselves. They were happy.
+Tom and Anna are brother and sister. They like to play with their toys in the living room. But sometimes they fight over the same toy. They do not like to share.
+
+One day, they both want to play with the red car. Tom grabs it first, but Anna pulls it from him. They start to yell and tug at the car. Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong.
+
+Mom is busy. She has to cook and clean and work. She does not like to hear Tom and Anna fight. She says, "Stop! You have to follow the law of the house. The law is: you have to take turns and be kind. If you do not follow the law, you will lose the toy."
+
+Tom and Anna pause. They look at Mom and the red car. They do not want to lose the toy. They want to play with it. But they also want to make Mom happy. They think for a moment.
+
+Then, Tom says, "Sorry, Anna. You can have the car first. I will wait." Anna says, "Thank you, Tom. You can have it next. I will not play for too long." They smile and hug. Mom smiles too. She says, "Good job, Tom and Anna. You followed the law and solved the problem. I am proud of you."
+
+Tom and Anna learn that sharing and being kind are important. They also learn that following the law makes everyone happy. They play with the red car and other toys. They do not fight anymore. They have fun.
+Lily liked to read books. She had many books in her room. She read books about animals, princesses, and cars. She read books every day.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big iron on the table. It was hot and shiny. She wanted to touch it. She thought it was a toy. She reached out her hand.
+
+"No, Lily, don't touch that!" Mommy shouted. She ran to Lily and pulled her away. "That is not a toy. That is an iron. It is very hot. It can hurt you."
+
+Lily was scared. She did not know the iron was hot. She did not want to hurt herself. She started to cry.
+
+Mommy hugged Lily and kissed her. "It's okay, Lily. You are safe. I am sorry I shouted. I was worried about you. I love you very much."
+
+Lily stopped crying. She felt better. She loved Mommy too. She said, "I love you, Mommy. I am sorry I touched the iron. I will not do it again."

+
+"OK!" Ben says.
+
+They climb up the ladder and sit on the slide. They hold hands and get ready to slide down.
+
+But then they notice a little boy crying near the slide. He has a scraped knee and no one is helping him.
+
+"Who is he?" Sara asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he is lost," Ben says.
+
+They look at each other and decide to do something. They get off the slide and walk to the boy.
+
+"Hi, what's your name?" Sara asks.
+
+"Tommy," the boy says, sniffing.
+
+"Why are you crying?" Ben asks.
+
+"I fell down and hurt my knee. And I can't find my mom," Tommy says.
+
+"Don't worry, we will help you. Come with us," Sara says.

+They take Tommy by the hand and lead him to the park bench. They find a band-aid in Sara's backpack and put it on his knee. They also give him some water and a cookie.
+
+"Thank you, you are very nice," Tommy says, smiling.
+
+"You're welcome, we are happy to help," Ben says.
+
+They sit with Tommy and talk to him until they see a woman running to them. She is Tommy's mom and she is very worried. She hugs Tommy and thanks Sara and Ben for taking care of him.
+
+"I'm sorry, I lost sight of him for a moment. He ran away from me to the slide. I'm so glad you found him and helped him," she says.
+
+"It's OK, mom. They are my new friends. They gave me a band-aid and a cookie," Tommy says.
+

+
+One day, Benny saw a big bottle on the porch. It had a picture of a dog and a flea with a red X on it. Benny was curious. He sniffed the bottle and licked it. It tasted bad. He spat it out. But some of the liquid got on his fur.
+
+Soon, Benny felt something strange. He scratched his fur and saw fleas falling off. They were dead. Benny was happy. He had no more fleas. He ran around the yard and barked. He wanted to celebrate.
+
+He saw his friend Lucy, a cat, on the fence. Lucy also had fleas. She was scratching and meowing. Benny wanted to share his good news. He ran to the fence and wagged his tail. He showed Lucy the bottle and the dead fleas.
+
+But Lucy was scared. She did not like dogs. She did not like bottles. She did not like dead fleas. She hissed and arched her back. She jumped off the fence and ran away.
+
+Benny was sad. He wanted to celebrate with Lucy. He did not understand why she was scared. He thought she would be happy too. He went back to the porch and lay down. He still had no fleas. He was still happy. But he was also lonely.

+One night, Mom and Dad say good night to Lily and Ben. They turn off the light and close the door. Lily and Ben hug their teddy bears and try to sleep. But they hear a noise. It sounds like a growl.
+
+"What is that?" Lily whispers.
+
+"I don't know," Ben whispers back. "Maybe it is a monster."
+
+They are very scared. They want to call Mom and Dad, but they are afraid the monster will hear them. They hide under the covers and hold each other.

+Max wakes up and wags his tail. He licks their faces and makes them laugh.

+
+When the truck came, Jill and Ben ran to get their cones. Jill got a chocolate cone and Ben got a vanilla cone. They were happy and licked their cones. They forgot about the dog.

+Sara and Tom were playing a game. They had to guess what was in a box. The box was big and shiny. Sara went first. She shook the box and listened.
+
+"I guess it is a ball," she said.
+
+Tom opened the box and said, "No, it is not a ball. It is a teddy bear. You are wrong. It is my turn now."
+
+He gave Sara another box. It was small and heavy. Tom smiled and said, "This is a hard one. Can you guess what is in it?"
+
+Sara felt the box and said, "I guess it is a rock."
+
+Tom opened the box and said, "No, it is not a rock. It is a watch. You are wrong again. I win the game. The watch is my prize. It is very expensive. My dad gave it to me."
+
+Sara was sad. She wanted to win the game too. She wanted a prize. She said, "That is not fair. You gave me a hard box. You knew what was in it. You cheated."
+
+Tom said, "No, I did not cheat. I just guessed better than you. The game is over. The watch is mine."
+
+Sara was angry. She grabbed the watch and ran away. She said, "No, it is not yours. It is mine now. I took it. It is my prize."
+
+Tom chased after her. He said, "Give it back. It is not yours. It is mine. You stole it. It is very expensive. My dad will be mad."
+
+They ran and ran. They did not see the dog. The dog saw the watch. The dog liked shiny things. The dog jumped and bit the watch. The watch broke. The dog ran away with the watch.
+
+Sara and Tom stopped. They looked at the watch. It was broken. It was not shiny anymore. It was not expensive anymore. It was not a prize anymore. It was just a broken watch.
+
+They felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry. We were silly. We fought over a watch. We did not share. We did not have fun. We lost the watch. We lost the game."
+
+They hugged and said, "We are sorry. We are friends. We do not need a watch. We have each other. We can play another game. A game that is fun. A game that we can share."
+
+They went back to their toys. They found another box. They said, "Let's play again. Let's guess what is in the box. Maybe it is a prize. Maybe it is not. It does not matter. We will have fun."
+Lily and Ben like to play in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. One day, they see a big billboard near the park. It has a picture of a purple cat. The cat has a funny hat and a big smile.

+
+Ben nods. "Yes, I like purple cats. They are pretty and funny. Do you think the cat can talk?"
+
+Lily shrugs. "Maybe. Let's go and see."
+
+They run to the billboard. They stand on their toes and try to touch the cat. But the cat is too high. They cannot reach it.
+
+"Hello, purple cat!" Lily says. "Can you hear us?"
+
+The cat does not answer. It just smiles.
+
+"Maybe the cat is shy," Ben says. "Or maybe it is sleeping."
+
+Lily frowns. "I want to talk to the cat. I want to ask it questions. Like, what is its name? And what does it eat? And where does it live?"
+
+Ben thinks. "Maybe we can make the cat talk. Maybe we can sing to it. Or tell it a joke. Or give it a hug."
+
+Lily smiles. "That's a good idea, Ben. Let's try."
+
+They start to sing a song. They sing about the sun and the moon and the stars. They sing loud and happy. They hope the cat will like their song.

+
+"Let's go and look at the house," Tim said. He was brave and curious.
+
+"No, Tim, don't go. It is a witch's house. She is mean and ugly. She will catch us and eat us," Sue said. She was afraid and smart.
+
+But Tim did not listen to Sue. He ran to the house and knocked on the door. Sue followed him. She did not want to be alone.
+
+The door opened and a witch came out. She had a long nose, a black hat and a broom. She smiled and said, "Hello, little children. Do you want to come in? I have some candy and toys for you."
+
+Tim and Sue were surprised. The witch did not look mean and ugly. She looked nice and friendly. They liked candy and toys.
+
+"OK, we will come in," Tim said. He was greedy and foolish.
+
+"Good, good. Come in, come in," the witch said. She was creative and cunning.
+
+She led them to a big room. There were many candy and toys on the table. Tim and Sue ran to the table and started to eat and play. They did not see the witch lock the door and laugh.
+
+The witch was happy. She had caught two children for her dinner. She went to the kitchen and started to cook a big pot of soup. She put some carrots, potatoes, onions and salt in the pot. Then she went back to the room.
+
+"Are you enjoying yourselves, children?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, we are. Thank you, witch," Tim and Sue said. They were full and happy.
+
+"Good, good. Now, it is time for the main course. Come with me to the kitchen. I have a surprise for you," the witch said.
+
+She took them by the hand and led them to the kitchen. They did not see the big pot of soup on the stove. They did not see the witch's evil grin.
+
+They followed her to the kitchen. They did not know what the surprise was. They did not know they were the surprise.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Tom were bored. They wanted to play something fun. They looked around the house for something to do. They saw a big pan in the kitchen. They had an idea.
+
+"Let's play guess what's in the pan!" Lily said. "I will put something in the pan and you will guess what it is. Then you will do the same for me."
+
+"OK, that sounds fun!" Tom said. "You go first."
+
+Lily ran to the living room and found a toy car. She put it in the pan and covered it with a cloth. She brought it back to the kitchen and gave it to Tom.
+
+"Guess what's in the pan!" she said.
+
+Tom felt the pan. It was heavy and hard. He shook it a little. It made a noise.
+
+"Is it a rock?" he asked.
+
+"No, it's not a rock. Guess again!" Lily said.
+
+"Is it a book?" he asked.
+
+"No, it's not a book. Guess again!" Lily said.
+
+Tom was getting frustrated. He couldn't guess what it was. He decided to cheat. He lifted the cloth a little and peeked inside.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair! You can't look!" Lily shouted.
+
+She grabbed the pan from Tom and swung it at him. But she swung it too hard and lost her balance. She fell to the floor and hit her head on the table. The pan flew out of her hands and hit the stove. The stove was on and the pan caught fire.
+
+Lily and Tom screamed. They smelled smoke and saw flames. They ran out of the kitchen and called for their mom. Their mom came and saw the fire. She was angry and scared. She grabbed a fire extinguisher and put out the fire. She checked Lily's head and saw a big bump. She checked Tom's hand and saw a burn.
+
+She took them to the couch and sat them down. She looked at them with a stern face.
+
+"What were you thinking? Playing with a pan and a stove? That was very dangerous and stupid! You could have burned the house down or hurt yourselves badly! You are in big trouble, young lady and young man! No more playing for you today! You will stay here and think about what you did. And no more guessing games, ever!"
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry and ashamed. They wished they had played something else. They wished they had not been so creative. They wished they had a good ending.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with tools and make things. One day, they find a big box of screws in the garage. They want to use them for their project.
+
+"Look, Sam, so many screws!" Tim says. "Let's count them."
+
+"Okay, Tim, you start," Sam says.
+
+Tim picks up a screw and says, "One." He puts it in a pile. He picks up another screw and says, "Two." He puts it in the pile. He keeps going until he reaches ten.
+
+"Ten screws!" Tim says. "That's a lot!"
+
+"Can I count now?" Sam asks.
+
+"Sure, Sam, you count the next ten," Tim says.
+
+Sam picks up a screw and says, "Eleven." He puts it in a pile. He picks up another screw and says, "Twelve." He puts it in the pile. He keeps going until he reaches twenty.
+
+"Twenty screws!" Sam says. "That's even more!"
+
+They keep counting the screws until they have no more. They have a hundred screws in ten piles.
+
+"A hundred screws!" Tim and Sam say together. "That's brilliant!"
+
+They are very happy. They use the screws to make a robot out of wood and metal. They give it eyes, a mouth, and arms. They name it Bob.
+
+"Hello, Bob!" Tim and Sam say.
+
+"Hello, Tim and Sam!" Bob says.
+
+They are very surprised. They did not know their robot can talk.
+
+"How can you talk, Bob?" Tim asks.
+
+"I don't know, Tim," Bob says. "But I like to talk. And I like to count. Can we count the screws again?"
+
+Tim and Sam laugh. They like their robot. They count the screws with Bob. They have a lot of fun.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with toys. One day, they found a big iron in the closet. It was shiny and heavy and had a long cord. They wanted to play with it, but they did not know what it was for.
+
+"Let's pretend it is a spaceship," Ben said. He grabbed the iron and made zooming noises.
+
+"No, let's pretend it is a cake," Lily said. She pulled the iron and made yummy noises.
+
+They both wanted the iron for themselves. They did not want to share. They started to fight and tug and shout.
+
+"Give it to me, it is mine!" Ben said.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Lily said.
+
+They were very selfish and mean. They did not care about each other's feelings.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the closet. She saw the iron and the twins. She was angry and scared.
+
+"What are you doing with the iron?" she asked. "It is not a toy. It is very hot and dangerous. You could get hurt or burn the house."
+
+She took the iron away from them and put it back in the closet. She told them to sit on the bed and think about what they did.
+
+Ben and Lily felt sorry and ashamed. They realized they were wrong. They decided to say sorry to each other and to Mom. They hugged and kissed and said they loved each other.
+
+They learned to be kind and share. They did not need the iron to have fun. They had each other and many other toys. They played happily and nicely. Mom was proud and happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand and look for treasures. Sometimes they found shiny stones, or shells, or coins. But today they found something else.
+
+"Look, Lily, look!" Ben shouted. He held up a big bone. "It's a skeleton!"
+
+Lily ran over to see. She was scared. She thought the skeleton might be a monster. "Where did it come from?" she asked.
+
+Ben shrugged. He hoped it was not a bad skeleton. He hoped it was a nice skeleton. Maybe it was a dinosaur, or a dog, or a pirate. He wanted to find more bones and make a skeleton friend.
+
+"Let's dig more!" he said. He gave Lily a small bone. "Here, you can have this one. Maybe it's a finger."
+
+Lily took the bone. She was not sure. She did not like fingers. She did not like skeletons. She wished they had found something else. She felt miserable.
+
+But she did not want to make Ben sad. He was her best friend. She pretended to be happy. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. Maybe it's a finger. Maybe it's a magic finger."
+
+They dug more and more. They found more and more bones. They made a big pile of bones. They tried to put them together. They made a skeleton.
+
+But it was not a nice skeleton. It was not a dinosaur, or a dog, or a pirate. It was a human skeleton. It had a skull, and ribs, and legs, and arms. It had a hole in its chest. It had a knife in its back.
+
+Lily and Ben screamed. They dropped the bones. They ran away. They did not want to play with the skeleton anymore. They did not want to be near the skeleton anymore. They wanted to go home.
+
+They ran to the park gate. They saw a police car. They saw a man with a badge. He was talking to a woman. She was crying. She had a picture in her hand. It was a picture of a man. He looked like the skeleton.
+
+The man with the badge saw Lily and Ben. He saw the bones in their hands. He frowned. He said, "Hey, kids, where did you get those?"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not know what to say. They hoped they were not in trouble. They hoped the skeleton was not angry. They hoped the woman was not sad. They hoped the man with the badge was nice. They hoped he would help them. They hoped he would understand.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big box near the slide. They are curious. What is in the box?
+
+"Let's open it!" Ben says. He runs to the box and tries to lift the lid.
+
+"Wait!" Lily says. She follows him and stops him. "Maybe it is not ours. Maybe someone is looking for it."
+
+Ben looks at Lily. He wants to see what is in the box. He thinks it is a toy or a surprise.
+
+"Please, Lily. Just one peek. Maybe we can share it." He says.
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She is curious too. But she is also careful. She does not want to make trouble.
+
+"OK, Ben. But only one peek. And then we close it again. And we tell a grown-up." She says.
+
+Ben nods. He is happy. He lifts the lid a little bit. Lily looks too. They see something furry and soft. It moves and makes a noise.
+
+"Meow!" It says.
+
+Lily and Ben gasp. It is a kitten! A cute, fluffy kitten. It looks at them with big eyes.
+
+"Hello, kitten!" Lily says. She smiles and reaches out to touch it.
+
+"Hello, kitten!" Ben says. He smiles and reaches out too.
+
+The kitten purrs and rubs its head against their hands. It likes them. Lily and Ben like it too.
+
+They forget about the box and the park. They only see the kitten. They are happy. They have a new friend.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big tunnel made of wood and metal. They wanted to go inside and see what was there.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's go in the tunnel!" Sara said.
+
+"OK, Sara, but be careful. It might be dark and scary," Ben said.
+
+They held hands and walked into the tunnel. It was dark and cold. They could hear strange noises and see shadows. They were a little afraid, but they kept going.
+
+Suddenly, they saw a bright light at the end of the tunnel. They ran towards it and came out on the other side. They gasped in wonder. They were in a beautiful garden full of flowers and butterflies. The sun was shining and the sky was blue.
+
+"Wow, Sara, look at this! It's so pretty!" Ben said.
+
+"Look, Ben, a butterfly!" Sara said, pointing at a brilliant yellow butterfly that flew near them. She reached out her hand and the butterfly landed on her finger. She smiled and felt happy.
+
+"Hello, butterfly. You are so pretty. Can you fly high?" Sara asked.
+
+The butterfly nodded and flapped its wings. It lifted Sara's finger and then let go. Sara watched as the butterfly soared into the sky, leaving a trail of sparkles.
+
+"Bye, butterfly. Thank you for showing us this place," Sara said.
+
+"Bye, butterfly. You are amazing," Ben said.
+
+They waved at the butterfly and then looked around. They saw more tunnels leading to different places. They wondered what they would find if they went in.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's explore more tunnels!" Sara said.
+
+"OK, Sara, let's go. Maybe we'll see more butterflies," Ben said.
+
+They held hands and ran to the next tunnel. They were excited and curious. They had a lot of fun in the park.
+Lily and Ben are playing a game with cards. They have to use the cards to make pairs of animals. Lily has a card with a cat and a card with a dog. Ben has a card with a cow and a card with a pig.
+
+"Look, I have a pair!" Lily says, showing her cards to Ben. "A cat and a dog are both pets. They can live in a house."
+
+"Good job, Lily!" Ben says. "But I have a pair too. A cow and a pig are both farm animals. They can live in a barn."
+
+They put their cards on the table and pick two more cards. Lily gets a card with a fish and a card with a bird. Ben gets a card with a lion and a card with a monkey.
+
+"Oh no, I don't have a pair!" Lily says, looking at her cards. "A fish and a bird are not the same. They live in different places. A fish lives in water and a bird lives in the sky."
+
+"I don't have a pair either!" Ben says, looking at his cards. "A lion and a monkey are not the same. They live in different places. A lion lives in the grass and a monkey lives in the trees."
+
+They look at each other and laugh. They decide to trade one card each. Lily gives Ben her fish card and Ben gives Lily his monkey card.
+
+"Now I have a pair!" Lily says, smiling. "A bird and a monkey are both animals that can fly. They have wings or tails that help them fly."
+
+"Now I have a pair too!" Ben says, smiling. "A fish and a lion are both animals that can swim. They have fins or paws that help them swim."
+
+They put their cards on the table and clap their hands. They are happy that they have made pairs. They are ready to play another round. They love playing with cards.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to watch cartoons on TV. Sometimes they fight over which cartoon to watch. They make loud noises and pull the remote from each other.
+
+One day, their mom comes home from work. She is very tired. She wants to relax on the couch. But she hears Anna and Ben fighting in the living room. She goes to see what is wrong.
+
+"Anna, Ben, why are you fighting?" she asks. "Can't you share the TV and watch cartoons together?"
+
+"But mom, I want to watch the silly cat and he wants to watch the silly dog!" Anna says.
+
+"But mom, I want to watch the silly dog and she wants to watch the silly cat!" Ben says.
+
+Mom sighs. She has an idea. She turns off the TV and takes the remote. She says, "How about we watch something else? Something that is not a cartoon. Something that is real and beautiful and fun."
+
+Anna and Ben are curious. They follow mom to the backyard. Mom shows them the flowers, the birds, the butterflies, and the sky. She tells them stories about nature and how to take care of it. She teaches them the names of the colors and the shapes. She plays games with them and makes them laugh.
+
+Anna and Ben forget about the cartoons. They enjoy the time with mom and with each other. They learn new things and have fun. They feel happy and relaxed.
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "See, there are many things to watch and do besides cartoons. Cartoons are fun, but they are not real. Nature is real, and it is wonderful. And you know what else is real and wonderful? You two. You are my silly, sweet, and smart twins. And I love you very much."
+
+Anna and Ben hug mom. They say, "We love you too, mom. And we love nature. And we love each other. Thank you for showing us something else. Can we do this again tomorrow?"
+
+Mom nods. She says, "Of course, we can. But now, let's go inside and have some dinner. And maybe, after dinner, we can watch one cartoon together. The one with the silly cat and the silly dog. What do you think?"
+
+Anna and Ben agree. They say, "Yes, mom. That sounds good. We can share the TV and watch cartoons together. But only one. Because we like something else more."
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: The story teaches the value of sharing, appreciating nature, spending quality time with family, and finding balance between entertainment and learning.
+Lily liked to look at her face in the mirror. She saw her big eyes, her small nose, and her long hair. She thought she was pretty. But she was not happy. She was weak. She could not run or play like the other kids. She had to stay in bed most of the time. She had a bad sickness that made her hurt.
+
+One day, her mom came to her room with a book. She said, "Lily, this is a special book. It has stories about God. God loves you and wants you to be well. You can talk to him anytime. You can pray to him and ask him for anything."
+
+Lily was curious. She asked, "How do I pray, mom?"
+
+Her mom said, "You can close your eyes and say what is in your heart. You can thank God for what you have, and ask him for what you need. You can tell him how you feel, and he will listen. He will help you, Lily. He is powerful and good."
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to try. She closed her eyes and said, "Dear God, thank you for my mom and dad and my toys and my mirror. Please make me strong and healthy. Please take away my pain. Please let me run and play like the other kids. I love you, God. Amen."
+
+She opened her eyes and looked at her mom. Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "That was a beautiful prayer, Lily. I'm proud of you. God heard you, and he will answer you. He will always be with you, Lily. You are not alone."
+
+Lily felt a warm feeling in her chest. She felt hopeful and loved. She looked at her face in the mirror again. She still saw her big eyes, her small nose, and her long hair. But she also saw something else. She saw a spark in her eyes. She saw a smile on her lips. She saw a glow on her skin. She thought she was pretty. And she was happy.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play pretend. Today they pretend to be astronauts. They have a big box. The box is their space ship.
+
+They put on their helmets and gloves. They climb into the box. Lily is the captain. Tom is the co-pilot. They close the flap. They are ready to go to space.
+
+Lily says, "Co-pilot Tom, are you ready for blast off?"
+
+Tom says, "Yes, captain Lily, I am ready."
+
+Lily says, "OK, then. Let's count down. Five, four, three, two, one, blast off!"
+
+They make loud noises with their mouths. They shake the box. They pretend to fly to the moon. They have fun.
+
+They open the flap. They see the sun and the clouds. They pretend to land on the moon. They get out of the box. They hop around. They look for aliens. They do not find any.
+
+They say, "The moon is nice, but we miss our home."
+
+They get back into the box. They close the flap. They are ready to go back.
+
+Lily says, "Co-pilot Tom, are you ready for re-entry?"
+
+Tom says, "Yes, captain Lily, I am ready."
+
+Lily says, "OK, then. Let's count down. Five, four, three, two, one, re-entry!"
+
+They make loud noises with their mouths. They shake the box. They pretend to fall to the earth. They have fun.
+
+They open the flap. They see their mom and dad. They smile and wave. They are happy.
+
+They say, "We are back from space. We had a great adventure."
+
+Mom and dad say, "We are proud of you. You are brave astronauts. Now it is time for lunch."
+
+Lily and Tom say, "OK, mom and dad. We are hungry. Can we play space again later?"
+
+Mom and dad say, "Yes, you can. But first, let's eat."
+
+They hug and kiss. They go to the kitchen. They eat their lunch. They talk about their space trip. They are friends. They are astronauts. They are happy. The end.
+Lily and Max were playing in their room. They had many toys, but they wanted to see what was in the closet. The closet had a big knob that was hard to turn. Lily tried to turn the knob, but it did not move. She pulled and pushed, but it did not open.
+
+"Let me try," Max said. He was bigger than Lily and stronger. He grabbed the knob and twisted it with all his might. He heard a click and the closet door opened a little. He smiled and pulled the door more.
+
+"Wait, Max!" Lily said. "Mom said we should not go in the closet. She said there are things that are not for us. She said we should be patient and wait for her to come back."
+
+Max did not listen to Lily. He was curious and wanted to see what was in the closet. He saw a big box with a shiny ribbon. He thought it was a present for him. He reached for the box and tried to open it.
+
+"Stop, Max!" Lily said. "That is not yours. That is Mom's. She told me it is a surprise for Dad's birthday. You will ruin it if you open it. You should resist and put it back."
+
+Max did not want to put it back. He wanted to see what was inside. He tore the ribbon and lifted the lid. He saw a watch with a silver band. He thought it was beautiful and wanted to try it on.
+
+"Max, no!" Lily said. "That is Dad's watch. Mom saved a lot of money to buy it for him. He will be very sad if you break it or lose it. You should be patient and wait for your own present. You should resist and give it to me."
+
+Max did not want to give it to Lily. He wanted to keep it for himself. He put the watch on his wrist and ran out of the closet. He did not see the cord that was on the floor. He tripped and fell. The watch flew off his wrist and hit the wall. It cracked and stopped working.
+
+Max started to cry. He knew he had done a bad thing. He wished he had listened to Lily. He wished he had been patient and resisted. He was sorry for Mom and Dad.
+
+Lily ran to Max and hugged him. She was angry and sad, but she also loved him. She said, "It's okay, Max. We will tell Mom and Dad what happened. Maybe they can fix the watch. Maybe they will forgive us. But next time, you should be patient and resist. Okay?"
+
+Max nodded and hugged Lily back. He said, "Okay, Lily. I'm sorry. I love you."
+
+They held each other and waited for Mom and Dad to come back.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their ball. But today, there is a big problem. A mean lawyer is sitting on a bench near the ball. He is reading a big book and he is very quiet.
+
+"Hey, mister, can we have our ball back?" Anna asks. She is not afraid of the lawyer.
+
+"No, you can't. This is my ball now. Go away, you noisy kids!" the lawyer says. He is very rude.
+
+"But that is our ball! We brought it from home!" Ben says. He is angry.
+
+"I don't care. Find another ball. This one is mine." the lawyer says. He puts the ball under his coat.
+
+Anna and Ben are very sad. They don't know what to do. They look around for help. They see a big dog. The dog is friendly. He likes to play with kids.
+
+"Hi, doggy, can you help us?" Anna asks. She pets the dog.
+
+"Woof, woof!" the dog says. He wags his tail.
+
+"Can you get our ball from the mean lawyer?" Ben asks. He points to the bench.
+
+"Woof, woof!" the dog says. He runs to the bench.
+
+The lawyer is still reading his book. He does not see the dog. The dog jumps on the bench. He sniffs the coat. He smells the ball. He bites the coat. He pulls the ball out.
+
+"Hey, stop that! That's my ball!" the lawyer shouts. He tries to grab the ball.
+
+But the dog is faster. He runs away with the ball. He brings it to Anna and Ben.
+
+"Thank you, doggy! You are the best!" Anna and Ben say. They hug the dog.
+
+They kick the ball and play with the dog. They have fun.
+
+The lawyer is very mad. He has a hole in his coat. He has no ball. He has no friends. He is very quiet.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Ben had a truck and Lily had a doll. They were having fun, making noises and pretending to go on adventures.
+
+Then, Mom came in with a big pot. She said, "I made some soup for lunch. It's very hot, so be careful. Do you want some?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They liked soup. They put their toys down and followed Mom to the kitchen. They sat on their chairs and waited for their bowls.
+
+Mom poured some soup into each bowl and put them on the table. She said, "Blow on your soup before you eat it. It will cool it down."
+
+Ben and Lily did as Mom said. They blew on their soup and took small sips. It was yummy. They said, "Thank you, Mom."
+
+But then, Lily saw something shiny in her soup. She said, "Look, Ben. There's a spoon in my soup."
+
+Ben looked at Lily's bowl. He saw the spoon too. He said, "That's funny. How did it get there?"
+
+Lily shrugged. She said, "Maybe it fell from the pot."
+
+Ben said, "Maybe. Can I see it?"
+
+Lily said, "Okay." She lifted the spoon with her hand and showed it to Ben.
+
+But as she did, some soup dripped from the spoon and landed on Ben's shirt. Ben said, "Ow! That's hot. And rude. You spilled soup on me."
+
+Lily said, "Sorry, Ben. I didn't mean to. It was an accident."
+
+Ben said, "Well, you should be more careful. And you should say 'excuse me' when you pause to show me something."
+
+Lily said, "Excuse me, Ben. I pause to show you the spoon. But you don't have to be mad at me. It's just soup. It will dry."
+
+Ben said, "I guess you're right. It's just soup. And it was an accident. I'm sorry for being mad at you."
+
+Lily said, "It's okay, Ben. I'm sorry for spilling soup on you."
+
+They hugged and smiled. They finished their soup and asked for more. Mom was happy to see them get along. She said, "You're such good kids. I love you both."
+Anna and Ben were happy to move to a new house. They had many boxes to unpack. They wanted to see their new toys and books.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found my shape puzzle!" Anna said. She opened the box and took out the pieces. They were different colors and shapes. She liked to match them with the holes on the board.
+
+"Can I play too?" Ben asked. He reached for the box, but Anna pulled it away.
+
+"No, this is mine! You have your own toys!" Anna said. She did not want to share.
+
+"But I like shapes too!" Ben said. He tried to grab the box again, but Anna pushed him. He fell on the floor and started to cry.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom said. She heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the box and the puzzle on the floor. She saw Ben's tears and Anna's angry face.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom asked. She was not happy.
+
+"Anna won't let me play with her puzzle!" Ben said.
+
+"Ben tried to take my puzzle!" Anna said.
+
+Mom sighed. She picked up the puzzle and looked at it. It was an expensive puzzle. It was a gift from Grandma. She wanted Anna and Ben to share it and learn from it.
+
+"Listen, Anna and Ben, this puzzle is not just for one of you. It is for both of you. It is a special puzzle. It can help you learn about shapes and colors and numbers. It can also help you learn about sharing and taking turns. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They felt sorry for fighting. They wanted to play with the puzzle and with each other.
+
+"Can we play with it together, Mom?" Anna asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. But you have to be careful and gentle with it. It is an expensive puzzle. And you have to be kind and respectful to each other. It is more fun to play with a friend than alone. Do you agree?" Mom asked.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded again. They smiled and hugged each other.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. We are sorry for being mean. We will share the puzzle and play nicely." Anna and Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled too. She was glad they made up. She helped them unpack the box and set up the puzzle on the table. She watched them play and learn and have fun. She was proud of them.
+It was a cold day and Ben and Mia wanted to play outside. They put on their thick coats, hats and gloves and ran to the park. They saw a big pond with ducks and geese. They wanted to feed them some bread.
+
+"Look, Mia, the water is frozen!" Ben said. He pointed to the ice on the pond. "Can we walk on it?"
+
+"No, Ben, that is dangerous!" Mia said. She shook her head. "The ice can break and you can fall in. The water is very cold and you will shiver and get sick."
+
+"But I want to try!" Ben said. He did not listen to Mia. He took a pebble from the ground and threw it on the ice. It made a loud crack. Ben smiled and ran to the ice.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Mia shouted. She followed him. She was scared for him.
+
+Ben stepped on the ice. It was slippery and hard. He tried to walk, but he slipped and fell. He hurt his knee and cried. The ice cracked more and he heard a splash. He looked and saw a hole in the ice. The water was dark and deep. He was very scared.
+
+"Mia, help me!" Ben shouted. He tried to get up, but he could not. He shivered and felt cold.
+
+Mia ran to Ben. She grabbed his hand and pulled him. She was strong and brave. She dragged him off the ice and to the grass. She hugged him and checked his knee. It was bleeding a little, but it was not bad.
+
+"Ben, you are silly!" Mia said. "You could have drowned in the water. You have to listen to me. I am your big sister and I know what is safe and what is not."
+
+"I'm sorry, Mia," Ben said. He sniffed and wiped his tears. "You are right. I was silly. Thank you for saving me. You are the best sister ever."
+
+Mia smiled and kissed his cheek. She gave him some bread to feed the ducks and geese. They watched them eat and quack. They forgot about the ice and the cold. They were happy and warm.
+Lily and Max are playing with their cars and trucks in the living room. They make loud noises and pretend to drive on the carpet. Mom is in the kitchen, making lunch.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I'm a big truck!" Max says, pushing his toy across the floor.
+
+"I'm a fast car, I can catch you!" Lily says, following him with her toy.
+
+They have fun, but they also make a big mess. They leave their toys everywhere, and they spill some juice on the couch.
+
+Mom comes to the living room and sees the mess. She is not happy.
+
+"Look at this mess, Lily and Max! You need to clean up your toys and wipe the juice. It's almost time for lunch," Mom says.
+
+"But we're still playing, Mom!" Lily says.
+
+"We don't want to clean up, Mom!" Max says.
+
+They insist on playing more. They don't listen to Mom.
+
+Mom sighs. She has an idea.
+
+"Okay, you can play a little more, but only if you play a new game. It's called gas station. You have to pretend that your cars and trucks need gas, and you have to fill them up with this bottle," Mom says, giving them an empty spray bottle.
+
+"What's gas, Mom?" Lily asks.
+
+"Gas is what makes your cars and trucks go. Without gas, they stop. You have to spray some water on them to give them gas. But be careful, don't spray too much, or they will get wet and dirty," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Max think that sounds fun. They agree to play gas station. They take turns spraying water on their toys, making sure they don't spray too much. They also move their toys to one corner of the living room, where they make a pretend gas station.
+
+Mom smiles. She sees that they are playing nicely, and they are also cleaning up their mess. She goes back to the kitchen, and finishes making lunch. She calls them when it's ready.
+
+"Come on, Lily and Max, it's time for lunch. You did a great job playing gas station. Your cars and trucks are all full of gas, and the living room is much cleaner. I'm proud of you," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Max run to the kitchen. They are hungry and happy. They hug Mom and thank her for the fun game. They sit down and eat their lunch. They tell Mom about their adventures with their cars and trucks. Mom listens and smiles. She loves her messy, but sweet, kids.
+Lily liked to study. She liked to look at books with many pictures and words. She liked to learn new things. Her mom and dad were happy when she studied. They said she was a smart girl.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big book on the shelf. It had a pink cover and a picture of a fairy. Lily wanted to read the book. She asked her mom if she could have it. Her mom said, "That book is for big kids. You have to study more before you can read it. But if you study hard, I will give you a reward."
+
+Lily was curious. She asked, "What is the reward?" Her mom smiled and said, "You will see. It is something you will like very much. But you have to study hard and finish your other books first."
+
+Lily nodded. She went to her room and picked up a book. She studied hard. She learned many new words and facts. She finished one book, then another, then another. She showed her mom and dad her books. They were proud of her. They said she was a very smart girl.
+
+Then, her mom said, "You have studied hard, Lily. You have finished all your books. You are ready for the big book. And you have earned your reward." She took Lily's hand and led her to the shelf. She took the big book with the pink cover and the picture of the fairy. She gave it to Lily. Lily was happy. She hugged the book. She thanked her mom.
+
+But that was not all. Her mom said, "There is one more thing. Look inside the book." Lily opened the book. She saw a letter. It was from her mom. It said, "Dear Lily, I am so proud of you. You have studied hard and learned a lot. You are a smart and wonderful girl. I love you very much. And I have a surprise for you. Turn the page and see."
+
+Lily turned the page. She gasped. She saw a ticket. It was a ticket to the fairy park. It was a place where she could see and play with real fairies. It was her dream. She was so happy. She jumped and clapped. She hugged her mom. She said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is the best reward ever! I love you, mom!"
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Lily. And I am glad you love to study. Because studying is fun and rewarding. And it opens the door to many wonderful things. Like books and fairies and dreams."
+Lily was sick. She had a bad cough and a hot head. She lay in her bed and felt sad. She wanted to play with her toys and her friends, but she had to stay in bed.
+
+Her mom came in with a nurse. The nurse wore a white dress and a white hat. She had a big bag with many things inside. The nurse smiled at Lily and said, "Hello, Lily. I am here to help you feel better. Can I check your head and your chest?"
+
+Lily nodded. She was a little scared, but she liked the nurse. The nurse put a thing on Lily's head and looked at a number. Then she put a thing on Lily's chest and listened to a sound. She said, "You have a fever and a cold, Lily. But don't worry, I have some medicine for you. It will make your cough go away and your head cool down."
+
+The nurse gave Lily a spoon with some liquid. It was sweet and pink. Lily swallowed it and made a face. The nurse said, "Good girl, Lily. You are very brave. Now you need to drink some water and rest. I will come back later to see how you are doing."
+
+Lily thanked the nurse and drank some water. Her mom kissed her and said, "I love you, Lily. You will be better soon. The nurse is very nice and knows how to help you. Try to sleep now, okay?"
+
+Lily closed her eyes and cuddled her teddy bear. She felt a little better. She liked the nurse and her white dress. She hoped she could play with her toys and her friends soon. She fell asleep and dreamed of happy things.
+Tim and Sue were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. But their favorite thing was to climb the big tree in the corner. The tree had many branches and leaves. It was incredible.
+
+One day, they decided to climb to the very top of the tree. They wanted to see the whole park and the sky. They were very brave and careful. They helped each other and said nice words. "You can do it, Tim!" Sue said. "You are so strong, Sue!" Tim said.
+
+They reached the top and felt very happy. They looked around and saw the birds, the flowers and the clouds. They smiled and hugged. They felt a warm feeling in their hearts. They wanted to show their love. They leaned in and kissed.
+
+But they did not see the bee. The bee was on a leaf near their faces. The bee did not like their kiss. The bee felt angry and scared. The bee wanted to protect itself. The bee stung Tim on his lip.
+
+Tim screamed and let go of Sue. He felt a sharp pain and a swelling. He was afraid and sad. He wanted to go down. He moved too fast and lost his balance. He fell from the tree.
+
+Sue saw Tim fall and cried. She wanted to help him. She wanted to say sorry. She wanted to kiss him again. But she could not. She was stuck on the top of the tree. She was alone and scared. She did not know what to do. She wished they never kissed.
+Ben and Mia were bored. They wanted to play something fun. They looked around the house for something interesting.
+
+They saw the stove in the kitchen. It had many buttons and knobs. They wondered what they did.
+
+"Let's play with the stove!" Ben said. "Maybe we can make something yummy!"
+
+Mia nodded. She liked yummy things. They went to the stove and started to push the buttons and turn the knobs.
+
+They did not know that the stove was hot. They did not see the flame that came out of one of the burners.
+
+Suddenly, they smelled something bad. They saw smoke coming from the stove. They heard a loud beep.
+
+They were scared. They ran away from the stove and called for Mom.
+
+Mom came quickly. She saw the smoke and the flame. She turned off the stove and grabbed a towel. She set the towel on the flame and put it out.
+
+She was angry and worried. She looked at Ben and Mia.
+
+"What were you doing with the stove?" she asked. "You could have burned the house down! You could have hurt yourselves!"
+
+Ben and Mia felt sorry. They knew they did something bad. They hung their heads and said, "We're sorry, Mom. We wanted to play something interesting. We didn't know the stove was hot."
+
+Mom hugged them. She was glad they were safe. She said, "I know you were bored, but the stove is not a toy. It is dangerous. You should never play with it. If you want to do something interesting, you can ask me. I can help you find something fun and safe to do."
+
+Ben and Mia nodded. They learned their lesson. They said, "We love you, Mom. Thank you for saving us."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "I love you too, Ben and Mia. Now let's go and find something interesting to do together."
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big ladder next to the house. Tom had an idea.
+
+"Let's climb the ladder and see the roof!" he said.
+
+Lily was scared. She did not like high places.
+
+"No, Tom, that is too dangerous. The roof is enormous and we might fall," she said.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He wanted to be brave and have fun. He ran to the ladder and started to climb. He went up and up until he reached the top. He looked around and saw the whole garden and the street. He felt happy and proud.
+
+"Lily, come and see! It is amazing up here!" he shouted.
+
+Lily heard Tom and felt curious. She wanted to see what he saw. She forgot her fear and followed him. She climbed the ladder slowly and carefully. She reached the roof and joined Tom. She gasped at the view.
+
+"Wow, Tom, you are right. It is amazing. Everything looks so small and far," she said.
+
+They smiled at each other and enjoyed the moment. They did not notice that their mom came out of the house and saw them. She was very angry and worried.
+
+"Tom! Lily! What are you doing on the roof? Get down right now!" she yelled.
+
+Tom and Lily heard their mom and felt scared. They had done something bad. They climbed down the ladder quickly and ran to their mom. She hugged them and scolded them.
+
+"Never do that again! You could have hurt yourselves. The roof is not a place to play. It is dangerous and dirty. You are very naughty," she said.
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry and ashamed. They apologized to their mom and promised to be good. They learned their lesson and never climbed the roof again.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their dolls in the living room. They pretended to be a mommy and a daddy who had a lot of work to do. They had a fake coffee machine that made noises and a fake laptop that had stickers on it.
+
+"Mommy, I need more coffee. I have to finish this report by tomorrow," Tom said, holding his fake mug.
+
+"OK, daddy. But you have to be careful. Too much coffee is bad for you. It can make you suffer," Lily said, pressing a button on the fake coffee machine.
+
+"What do you mean, suffer?" Tom asked, curious.
+
+"Suffer means you feel bad. Like when you have a tummy ache or a headache. Or when you are sad or scared. You don't want to suffer, do you?" Lily explained.
+
+"No, I don't. But I need coffee to stay awake and work. How can I avoid suffering?" Tom wondered.
+
+"Well, you can drink less coffee and more water. You can also take breaks and play with me and the dolls. And you can go to bed early and sleep well. That will make you feel good and happy. And you won't suffer," Lily suggested.
+
+"That sounds like a good idea, mommy. Thank you for helping me. You are very smart and kind," Tom said, smiling.
+
+"You're welcome, daddy. I love you. And I love our fake coffee and our fake laptop. They are fun to play with," Lily said, hugging him.
+
+They put away their fake coffee and their fake laptop and played with their dolls until it was time for dinner. They did not suffer. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. They see a big hill with wide grass. They want to roll down the hill.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's roll!" Ben says.
+
+"OK, Ben, let's go!" Lily says.
+
+They run to the top of the hill and lie down on the grass. They hold hands and start to roll. They go faster and faster. They feel the wind and the sun and the grass. They laugh and scream.
+
+But then, they see a big cow. The cow is eating beef from a bucket. The cow is not happy to see Lily and Ben. The cow moos loudly and runs towards them.
+
+"Look, Lily, a cow!" Ben says.
+
+"Uh-oh, Ben, a cow!" Lily says.
+
+They try to stop rolling, but they can't. They are too fast. They fall off the hill and land on the cow. The cow is surprised and angry. The cow kicks them off and runs away.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared and hurt. They have grass and beef and dirt on their clothes and faces. They cry and hug each other.
+
+"Are you OK, Lily?" Ben says.
+
+"Are you OK, Ben?" Lily says.
+
+They nod and wipe their tears. They see their mom and dad coming. They run to them and tell them what happened.
+
+Mom and dad are worried and mad. They check Lily and Ben for bruises and cuts. They scold them for being careless and silly. They take them home and give them a bath and a hug.
+
+Lily and Ben are sorry and sad. They say they won't roll down the hill again. They say they don't like cows or beef. They say they love mom and dad. They say they love each other. They fall asleep in their beds.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big flag on a pole. The flag is red and white and blue. It has stars and stripes. Lily likes the flag. She says, "Look, Ben, a pretty flag!"
+
+Ben nods. He says, "Yes, it is pretty. Do you want to touch it?" He runs to the pole and tries to reach the flag. But the flag is too high. He jumps and jumps, but he cannot touch it.
+
+Lily follows him. She says, "Be careful, Ben. You might fall." She sees a man sitting on a bench. The man is wearing a hat and sunglasses. He is holding a book. He looks at Ben and Lily. He smiles.
+
+Ben does not see the man. He keeps jumping. He says, "I want to touch the flag. I want to touch the flag." He jumps higher and higher. He does not hear Lily.
+
+The man sees Ben jumping. He thinks it is funny. He wants to make a joke. He says, "Boo!" He says it very loud.
+
+Ben hears the man. He is scared. He stops jumping. He looks at the man. He sees the hat and the sunglasses. He thinks the man is a monster. He screams. He runs to Lily. He hugs her.
+
+Lily hears Ben scream. She is scared too. She looks at the man. She sees the hat and the sunglasses. She thinks the man is a monster too. She screams. She hugs Ben.
+
+The man hears Lily and Ben scream. He is surprised. He does not mean to scare them. He says, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I was just joking. I'm not a monster. I'm a man. See?" He takes off his hat and sunglasses. He shows his face.
+
+Lily and Ben see the man's face. They see his eyes and nose and mouth. They see his hair and ears. They see he is not a monster. He is a man. They stop screaming. They look at each other.
+
+The man says, "I'm sorry. I didn't know you were afraid of hats and sunglasses. They are not scary. They are just things. I wear them to protect my eyes and head from the sun. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They understand. They are not scared anymore. They are glad. They say, "It's okay. We're sorry too. We thought you were a monster. You're not a monster. You're a man. You're a nice man."
+
+The man smiles. He says, "Thank you. You're nice too. You're nice kids. Do you want to see my book? It has pictures of flags. It has the flag you like. It has other flags too. They are all pretty. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They want to see. They let go of each other. They walk to the bench. They sit with the man. They look at his book. They see the flags. They learn their names and colors. They have fun.
+
+The end.
+Anna loved to draw. She had many colors and papers to make pictures. She liked to draw animals, flowers, and stars. But her favorite thing to draw was planes. She wanted to fly in a plane one day and see the clouds and the sky.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and dad. She brought her colors and papers with her. She saw a big plane in the air and pointed at it. "Look, mom, look, dad, a plane!" she said. "Can we go in a plane someday?"
+
+"Maybe, Anna, maybe," her mom said. "But planes are very expensive and far away. We have to save money and plan ahead."
+
+Anna nodded. She understood. She wanted to go in a plane, but she also wanted to be good and help her mom and dad. She decided to draw a plane for them. She took a blue paper and a red color. She drew a big plane with wings and windows and a tail. She was very proud of her drawing. She wanted to add something more to make it special.
+
+She looked around the park and saw a charming boy playing with a ball. He had curly hair and a big smile. He looked friendly and fun. Anna thought he would like to see her drawing. She walked over to him and said, "Hi, I'm Anna. Do you like planes?"
+
+The boy looked at her and nodded. "Hi, I'm Leo. I love planes. They are fast and loud and cool. Can I see your drawing?"
+
+Anna showed him her drawing. He liked it very much. He said, "Wow, that's a great plane. You are very good at drawing. Can I add something to it?"
+
+Anna smiled. She liked Leo. He was nice and polite. She said, "Sure, what do you want to add?"
+
+Leo took a yellow color and drew a sun in the corner of the paper. He said, "There, now the plane has a sun to shine on it. It looks happier and warmer."
+
+Anna agreed. She liked the sun. It made the plane look brighter and more beautiful. She said, "Thank you, Leo. You are very good at adding. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Leo nodded. He said, "Yes, Anna. I want to be your friend. You are very good at sharing. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "Yes, Leo. I want to play with you. You are very good at making me happy. Do you want to draw more planes with me?"
+
+Leo nodded. He said, "Yes, Anna. I want to draw more planes with you. You are very good at making me dream. Do you want to fly in a plane with me someday?"
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "Yes, Leo. I want to fly in a plane with you someday. You are very good at making me hope. Do you want to hug me?"
+
+Leo nodded. He said, "Yes, Anna. I want to hug you. You are very good at making me love. Do you want to hug me?"
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "Yes, Leo. I want to hug you. You are very good at making me love. Do you want to hug me?"
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They were happy and hopeful. They had a new friend and a new dream. They had a plane and a sun. They had love.
+

+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and building towers. But they also made a big mess. Toys were everywhere on the floor and on the couch.
+
+Mom came in and saw the mess. She was angry. She said, "Lily and Ben, you need to clean up your toys right now. And then you need to take a nap. You are too loud and too messy."
+
+Lily and Ben did not want to clean up or nap. They wanted to keep playing. They said, "No, Mom, we are not tired. We are not messy. We are having fun."
+
+Mom did not listen. She said, "Yes, you are. And you are also being naughty. If you don't clean up and nap, you will have no dessert tonight."
+
+Lily and Ben did not like that. They did not want to miss dessert. They loved dessert. They looked at each other and sighed. They knew they had to do what Mom said. They started to pick up their toys and put them in the box. They were not happy.
+
+Mom helped them finish cleaning up. Then she took them to their bedroom. She turned on the fan to make it cool and quiet. She said, "Good job, Lily and Ben. Now you need to nap. You will feel better after you rest. I love you."
+

+Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play near the harbor. They saw big boats and small boats, and sometimes they saw fish and birds. They wanted to go on a boat, but their mom said no. She said boats were not safe for little kids.
+
+One day, they saw a shiny boat with a red flag. It looked very pretty and fast. They wanted to see it up close, so they ran to the dock. They saw a man on the boat. He had a beard and a hat. He smiled at them and said hello.
+
+"Can we see your boat?" Lila asked. She was curious and brave.
+
+"Sure, why not?" the man said. He helped them climb on the boat. He showed them the wheel, the sails, and the cabin. He gave them candy and juice. He said he was a pirate and he had a treasure map.
+
+"Wow, you are a pirate?" Ben asked. He was excited and silly.
+
+"Yes, I am. And you can be my pirate helpers. Do you want to help me find the treasure?" the man asked.
+
+"Yes, yes!" Lila and Ben said. They liked treasure and adventure.
+
+"Great. Then let's go. We have to sail away from the harbor, where no one can see us." the man said. He started the engine and untied the rope. The boat moved away from the dock.
+
+Lila and Ben did not know that the man was a bad pirate. He did not have a treasure map. He wanted to kidnap them and sell them to another pirate. He lied to them and tricked them. They were in big trouble.
+
+Their mom came to the harbor to look for them. She saw the shiny boat with the red flag. She saw Lila and Ben waving at her. She screamed and cried. She called the police and the coast guard. She hoped they could catch the bad pirate and save her kids. But the boat was too fast and too far. She could not reach them. She was very sad and scared.

+
+"No, Tom, you can't. That is not nice. That will hurt me," Jen says.
+
+But Tom does not listen. He grabs Jen's neck. He tries to mark it with his red marker. Jen screams. She is scared and angry. She pushes Tom away. She runs to the teacher. She shows her neck. It has a big red mark on it. It is sore and ugly.
+
+The teacher is mad. She takes the markers away. She scolds Tom. She tells him he is very naughty. She makes him sit in the corner. She calls his mom. She tells her what he did.
+
+Tom is sad and sorry. He knows he did a bad thing. He wishes he did not mark Jen's neck. He wishes he was still her friend. But Jen does not want to talk to him. She does not like him anymore. She thinks he is mean and bad. She stays away from him.

+
+"But mom, I want the puzzle!" Ben complains.
+
+"So do I!" Mia complains.
+
+Mom thinks for a moment. She has an idea.
+
+"Why don't you work on the puzzle together?" she suggests. "You can each take half of the pieces and join them in the middle. That way, you can both enjoy the puzzle and learn something new. It will be more fun and useful than fighting."
+
+Ben and Mia look at each other. They think mom's idea is good. They nod and smile.
+
+"Okay, mom. We will try that," they say.
+
+They sit down on the floor and start to sort the pieces. They find the edges and the corners. They match the colors and the shapes. They talk and laugh as they work. They see the picture of a farm with animals and crops. They are proud of their puzzle.
+
+Mom watches them and smiles. She is happy to see them get along. She thinks they are a good family. She hugs them and kisses them.

+
+But there is one dog who is not nice to Ben. His name is Rex and he is mean and loud. Rex likes to tease Ben and make him angry. He says Ben is too slow and too fat. He says Ben is not a real dog.
+
+One day, Rex sees Ben with his owner, who has a leash. Rex thinks leashes are for silly dogs who cannot run free. He runs to Ben and barks at him. He says, "Look at you, Ben, you are on a leash! You are a baby dog who needs a mommy. You are not popular, you are a joke!"

+
+Ben goes to Rex and licks his face. He says, "Rex, I am sorry you are hurt. I hope you get better soon. I do not like when you tease me, but I do not hate you. You are a dog, like me. Maybe we can be friends."

+Rex opens his eyes and looks at Ben. He feels pain and shame. He says, "Ben, I am sorry I was mean to you. You are a good dog. You are popular and brave. You are not a joke, you are a hero. Thank you for helping me. Maybe we can be friends."
+
+Ben smiles and wags his tail. He says, "You are welcome, Rex. Maybe we can be friends. But first, you have to be nice. And you have to stop teasing me. And you have to admit that leashes are not so bad. They keep us safe and close to our owners. They are not for silly dogs, they are for smart dogs."
+
+Rex nods and says, "OK, Ben. I will be nice. And I will stop teasing you. And I will admit that leashes are not so bad. They are for smart dogs, like you and me."
+
+Ben and Rex hug and make up. They become friends and play together in the park. They are happy and popular. They are good dogs. The end.
+Lila was sad. She had a big cut on her knee from falling down. It hurt a lot and she cried. Mama gave her a band-aid and a kiss, but Lila still felt bad.
+
+"Can I have some juice, Mama?" Lila asked.
+
+"Sure, sweetie. Here is your cup. Be careful not to spill it." Mama said.
+
+Lila took the cup and went to the couch. She saw her teddy bear on the floor. She loved her teddy bear. He was soft and cuddly and always made her feel better. She reached for him, but she was too far. She leaned over the edge of the couch, but she lost her balance. The cup fell from her hand and the juice splashed all over the carpet.
+
+"Oh no!" Lila cried. "Mama, I'm sorry!"
+
+Mama came running. She saw the mess and sighed. She was not happy, but she was not angry either. She knew Lila did not mean to do it.
+
+"It's okay, Lila. Accidents happen. We can clean it up later. But you have to be more careful. You could have hurt yourself more." Mama said.
+
+Lila felt ashamed. She hugged her teddy bear and said sorry again. Mama hugged her too and said she loved her.
+
+"Lila, do you know what helps cuts heal faster?" Mama asked.
+
+"What, Mama?" Lila asked.
+
+"Being brave and happy. And listening to your mama." Mama said with a smile.
+
+Lila smiled too. She wanted to heal fast and make Mama proud. She decided to be brave and happy and listen to her mama. She drank some water and played with her teddy bear. She felt better already.

+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play pretend. One day, they pretend to have a shop. Tom is the seller and Lily is the buyer.
+
+Tom puts some toys on a table. He says, "This is my shop. I sell many things. Do you want to buy something?"
+
+Lily looks at the toys. She sees a doll, a car, a ball, and a bunch of broccoli. She says, "I want the doll. How much is it?"
+
+Tom says, "The doll is five coins. But you have to buy the broccoli too. It is good for you."
+
+Lily says, "No, I don't like broccoli. It is green and yucky. I only want the doll."
+
+Tom says, "No, you can't have the doll without the broccoli. It is a rule. You have to buy both or nothing."
+
+Lily says, "That is a silly rule. You are a bad seller. I don't want to play with you."
+
+Tom says, "You are a bad buyer. You don't listen to me. I don't want to play with you either."
+
+They both get angry and walk away. They don't talk to each other for a while.
+
+Mom sees them and asks, "What is wrong, Tom and Lily? Why are you not playing?"
+
+They tell her what happened. Mom says, "I see. You both have different ideas about what to sell and what to buy. But you know what? You are both dependable. You always keep your promises and help each other. That is more important than a doll or a broccoli. Why don't you say sorry and play again?"
+
+Tom and Lily think about it. They realize that Mom is right. They say sorry and hug each other. They decide to change the rule and let each other choose what to buy. They play happily again.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with many grapes. The grapes are purple and sweet.

+They run to the tree and try to reach the grapes. But the grapes are too high. Tom and Mia are too small.
+
+"Maybe we can use a stick," Tom says. He finds a long stick and tries to poke the grapes. But the stick is too short.
+
+"Maybe we can climb the tree," Mia says. She finds a low branch and tries to pull herself up. But the branch is too slippery.
+
+They are sad. They want the grapes.
+
+Then they see a dog. The dog is big and brown. The dog is crazy. The dog likes to chase things.
+
+"Hey, dog!" Tom says. "Do you want to help us?"
+
+The dog barks and runs to them. Tom and Mia show the dog the grapes. The dog jumps and bites the grapes. The grapes fall to the ground.
+
+"Wow, dog! You did it!" Mia says.
+
+"Thank you, dog!" Tom says.
+
+They share the grapes with the dog. The grapes are delicious. Tom and Mia are happy. They succeed.
+Lily and Tom were in the car with Mom. They were going to the park to play. But there was a lot of traffic on the road. The cars were not moving. Lily and Tom were bored and sad.
+
+"Mom, why are we not moving?" Lily asked.
+
+"Because there is a big truck that broke down in front of us. The truck driver is trying to fix it, but it is taking a long time. We have to wait until he moves the truck out of the way," Mom said.
+
+"Can we go around the truck?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, we can't. There is no space on the side. And we can't reverse either. There are cars behind us too. We are stuck," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom looked out the window. They saw the truck driver. He looked tired and worried. He was holding a wrench and a phone. He was talking to someone.
+
+"Mom, can we help the truck driver?" Lily asked.
+
+"How can we help him, sweetie?" Mom asked.
+
+"Maybe we can give him some water or a snack. Or we can say something nice to him. He looks sad," Lily said.
+
+Mom smiled. She was proud of Lily for being compassionate. She said, "That's a very kind idea, Lily. I have some water and cookies in the bag. Why don't you and Tom take them to the truck driver? Maybe he will appreciate it."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They got out of the car with Mom. They walked carefully to the truck driver. They said hello and offered him the water and cookies.
+
+The truck driver was surprised and touched. He thanked them and smiled. He said, "You are very sweet kids. You made my day. I was feeling frustrated and hopeless, but you cheered me up. Thank you so much."
+
+He took a sip of water and a bite of cookie. He felt better. He said, "You know what? I think I can fix the truck now. I just needed a little help and encouragement. You gave me that. You are amazing."
+
+He went back to work on the truck. He managed to start the engine and move the truck out of the way. The traffic started to move again. Lily and Tom waved goodbye to the truck driver. He waved back and said, "Have fun at the park. And thank you again. You are the best."
+
+Lily and Tom got back in the car with Mom. They were happy and excited. They said, "We helped the truck driver, Mom. We gave him water and cookies. And we made him smile. He fixed the truck and moved it. Now we can go to the park."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "You did a wonderful thing, Lily and Tom. You were compassionate and helpful. You made a difference. I'm so proud of you. And I'm sure the truck driver is too. Now let's go to the park and have some fun."
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play with toys and books. One day, they had lunch together at Lily's house. Lily had a sandwich and Tom had a soup. Lily wanted to try Tom's soup, but Tom said no. He said it was his soup and he did not want to share. Lily felt sad and angry. She grabbed Tom's spoon and threw it on the floor. The soup spilled everywhere. Tom cried and yelled at Lily. He said she was a bad friend and he did not want to play with her anymore.
+
+Lily's mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw the mess and the tears. She asked Lily and Tom what they did. Lily and Tom told her their stories. Lily's mom said they both did wrong things. She said Lily should not take Tom's spoon and Tom should not be selfish. She said they should say sorry to each other and forgive each other. She said friends should be kind and share.
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. They felt sorry for what they did. They said sorry and hugged each other. They said they forgave each other and they were still friends. Lily's mom smiled and said she was proud of them. She said she would make them a new lunch. She said they could have some cookies and milk as a treat. Lily and Tom were happy. They learned that lunch is better when they share and forgive. They decided to never fight over dull things again. They ate their lunch and played with toys and books. They had fun and laughed. They were good friends.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Anna has a big doll and Ben has a small car. They are having fun and making noises.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud scream from the kitchen. They run to see what is happening. They see their mom holding a scale in her hand. She looks scared and angry.
+
+"Who did this?" she asks. "Who put glue on the scale?"
+
+Anna and Ben look at each other. They know who did it. It was their big brother, Tom. He is very clever, but he also likes to play tricks on people. He thought it would be funny to make the scale stick to mom's hand.
+
+They decide to tell the truth. They point at Tom's room and say, "It was Tom. He did it. He put glue on the scale."
+
+Mom nods and goes to Tom's room. She knocks on the door and says, "Tom, come out. We need to talk."
+
+Tom opens the door and sees mom's hand. He knows he is in trouble. He says, "Sorry, mom. I was just joking. I didn't mean to scare you."
+
+Mom says, "That was not a nice joke, Tom. That was a mean joke. You hurt me and you made a mess. You need to say sorry to Anna and Ben, too. And you need to clean the scale and the glue."
+
+Tom says, "Okay, mom. I'm sorry. I won't do it again."
+
+Mom says, "Thank you, Tom. I hope you learned your lesson. Now, go and apologize to your siblings and help me with the kitchen."
+
+Tom goes to Anna and Ben and says, "Sorry, guys. I was wrong. You are good and brave for telling the truth."
+
+Anna and Ben say, "It's okay, Tom. We forgive you. But don't do it again. It's not fun to scream."
+
+They hug and make up. Then they go to the kitchen and help mom with the scale and the glue. They work together and have fun. They are a happy family.
+Lily and Sam were best friends. They liked to play in the park and share snacks. One day, they found a big bush with many blueberries. They were happy and picked some to eat.
+
+"Look, Lily, this blueberry is very big and shiny!" Sam said, holding one in his hand.
+
+"Wow, Sam, it looks yummy!" Lily said, reaching for it.
+
+But before she could take it, Sam put it in his mouth and chewed. He made a funny face and spit it out.
+
+"Yuck, Lily, this blueberry is bad! It tastes like soap!" he said, rubbing his tongue.
+
+Lily looked at him and gasped. "Sam, your mouth is blue! And your teeth are blue too!"
+
+Sam touched his mouth and felt something sticky. He looked at his hand and saw blue juice. He was scared and started to cry.
+
+"Lily, what happened to me? Am I sick? Will I turn into a blueberry?" he sobbed.
+
+Lily hugged him and tried to calm him down. "No, Sam, you are not sick. You are not a blueberry. You just ate a bad blueberry. It was not an ordinary blueberry. It was a trick blueberry. Someone put soap in it to make a joke. But it was not a funny joke. It was a mean joke."
+
+She took out a napkin and wiped his mouth and teeth. She gave him some water to drink. She looked around and saw a boy hiding behind a tree. He was laughing and holding a bottle of soap.
+
+"Hey, you!" Lily shouted. "You are the one who did this! You are a bad boy! You hurt my friend! You say sorry right now!"
+
+The boy was surprised and scared. He dropped the bottle and ran away.
+
+Lily and Sam looked at each other and smiled. They threw away the bad blueberries and ate some good ones. They felt better and decided to forget the bad boy and his trick. They were still best friends and they still liked blueberries. But they always checked them before they ate them. They never wanted to turn blue again.
+Tim and Lily are twins. They like to play together. But sometimes they are naughty. They do not listen to Mom and Dad.
+
+One day, Mom tells them to dress for school. She gives them their clothes. Tim and Lily do not want to go to school. They want to stay home and watch TV.
+
+They have an idea. They hide their clothes under the bed. They put on their pajamas again. They pretend to be asleep.
+
+Mom comes to check on them. She sees them in their pajamas. She is angry.
+
+"Tim and Lily, wake up! Why are you not dressed? You are late for school!" she says.
+
+Tim and Lily open their eyes. They act surprised.
+
+"Mom, we are sick. We have a fever. We cannot go to school," they say.
+
+Mom does not believe them. She touches their foreheads. They are not hot.
+
+"Nice try, but you are not sick. You are naughty. You hid your clothes under the bed. I can see them. Now get up and dress. Or you will be in trouble," she says.
+
+Tim and Lily are scared. They do not want to be in trouble. They get up and dress. They are sorry for being naughty.
+
+Mom is still angry. But she is also glad they are not sick. She hugs them and kisses them.
+
+"Tim and Lily, I love you. But you have to listen to me. School is important. You have to go and learn. And you have to be good. Do you understand?" she says.
+
+Tim and Lily nod. They understand. They love Mom too.
+
+They go to school. They learn new things. They have fun with their friends. They also learn a new word: muscle. They see a picture of a muscle in their book. They touch their arms. They feel their muscles. They are strong.
+
+They are not naughty anymore. They are good. They are happy.
+Lily was a thoughtful girl who liked to ask questions. She wanted to know how things worked and why they were the way they were. One day, she asked her mom, "Mom, how do we feel things?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "We feel things with our senses, like our eyes, ears, nose, mouth and skin. They help us know what is around us and how it makes us feel."
+
+Lily thought for a moment and then said, "But how do we feel with our mouth? We only use it to eat and talk, right?"
+
+Her mom said, "No, we can also feel with our mouth. For example, when you eat something sweet, like a cookie, your mouth feels happy and yummy. When you eat something sour, like a lemon, your mouth feels puckered and sour. When you eat something hot, like soup, your mouth feels warm and cozy. When you eat something cold, like ice cream, your mouth feels cold and refreshing. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, I think so. Can I try to feel different things with my mouth?"
+
+Her mom said, "Sure, but be careful not to put anything dirty or dangerous in your mouth, okay?"
+
+Lily said, "Okay, mom. Thank you for teaching me how to feel with my mouth. You are the best mom ever!"
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "You are very welcome, Lily. You are a very smart and thoughtful girl. I love you very much!"
+Anna and Ben liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, run, and climb. But they did not like to swing. The swing was too high and too fast. They were scared of the swing.
+
+One day, a new girl came to the park. Her name was Lily. She had long hair and a big smile. She saw the swing and ran to it. She sat on the seat and pushed with her feet. She went higher and higher. She laughed and shouted. "This is fun!"
+
+Anna and Ben watched her. They wondered how she could swing so well. They wanted to try, but they were still scared. They whispered to each other.
+
+"Wow, she is brave," said Anna.
+
+"Do you think we can swing like her?" asked Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we can ask her," said Anna.
+
+They walked to the swing. Lily saw them and stopped. She smiled at them.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily. Do you want to swing with me?" she asked.
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other. They felt nervous, but also curious. They nodded.
+
+"Okay, come on. I'll show you how to swing. It's easy and fun. You just have to hold on tight and move your feet. Don't be scared. I'll be here with you," said Lily.
+
+She helped them get on the swing. She pushed them gently. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They felt the swing go up and down. They felt a little scared, but also a little excited. They heard Lily cheer them on.
+
+"Good job, Anna and Ben. You're doing great. You're brave. You can swing!"
+
+Anna and Ben smiled. They liked to swing. They liked Lily. They made a new friend. They learned something new. They were happy.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play dress-up. They had many clothes and hats and shoes in their big box. One day, they found a new suit in the box. It was black and white and had a shiny tie. Lily wanted to wear the suit, but so did Max.
+
+They both grabbed the suit and pulled hard. They shouted at each other, "It's mine! It's mine!" They were very angry and jealous. They did not want to share the suit.
+
+Mom heard them shout and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting over the suit and said, "Stop! Stop! You are hurting the suit and each other. Why are you so jealous? You have many other clothes to wear. You can take turns with the suit."
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry and let go of the suit. They said sorry to each other and hugged. Mom smiled and said, "That's better. Now, why don't you both wear the suit? Lily can wear the jacket and Max can wear the pants and tie. You can be a team and play together."
+
+Lily and Max liked that idea. They put on the suit and looked at each other. They laughed and said, "We look funny and cool!" They thanked Mom and went to play. They were happy and not jealous anymore.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big dog with a red bow on its neck. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail.
+
+"Hello, doggy!" Tom said. "Can we pet you?"
+
+The dog barked and licked Tom's face. Lily giggled and reached for the bow.
+
+"Can I have your bow, doggy?" Lily asked. "It is brilliant and shiny."
+
+The dog growled and snapped at Lily's hand. Lily screamed and ran away. Tom was scared and angry.
+
+"Bad doggy!" Tom shouted. "You are mean and rude. You should share your bow."
+
+Tom picked up a stick and threw it at the dog. The dog dodged the stick and chased Tom. Tom ran as fast as he could, but the dog was faster.
+
+"Help, help!" Tom cried. "The dog is after me!"
+
+Lily heard Tom's cry and ran back to him. She saw the dog and had an idea. She grabbed another stick and waved it in the air.
+
+"Hey, doggy!" Lily called. "Look at this stick. It is bigger and better than your bow. Do you want it?"
+
+The dog stopped and looked at Lily. It saw the stick and forgot about the bow. It wagged its tail and barked.
+
+"Yes, yes!" the dog said. "I want the stick. Give it to me, please."
+
+Lily threw the stick far away. The dog ran after it and left Tom and Lily alone.
+
+"Phew!" Tom said. "That was close. Thank you, Lily. You are smart and brave. You saved me."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Tom. "You are welcome, Tom. You are my friend. I am sorry I wanted the dog's bow. It was not nice of me."
+
+Tom hugged Lily back. "It is okay, Lily. I am sorry I threw the stick at the dog. It was not nice of me either. Let's go and play something else."
+
+Tom and Lily walked away, holding hands. They learned to be kind and respectful to animals and to each other. They had a happy day in the park.
+Sara was lonely. She had no friends to play with. She liked to draw and read, but she wanted someone to talk to and share her toys with.
+
+One day, a big box came to her house. It had her name on it. She was curious and excited. She asked her mom, "What is in the box?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "It is a surprise for you. Open it and see."
+
+Sara opened the box and saw a fluffy brown puppy. It had a red bow around its neck and a tag that said, "Hi, I am Max. Will you be my friend?"
+
+Sara gasped and hugged the puppy. It licked her face and wagged its tail. She felt happy and warm. She said, "Yes, I will be your friend. I love you, Max."
+
+Her mom said, "I am glad you like your surprise. Max was looking for a home and someone to love him. He was lonely too. I thought you would accept him and give him a good life."
+
+Sara nodded and said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best. Max and I will have so much fun together. We will not be lonely anymore."
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pile of leaves. The leaves were colorful. They were red, yellow, orange and brown.
+
+"Let's play with the leaves!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Tom said.
+
+They ran to the pile of leaves. They threw the leaves in the air. They laughed and had fun. They made a big mess.
+
+Then, they had an idea. They decided to cover themselves with the leaves. They thought it would be funny.
+
+They lay down on the ground. They put leaves on their heads, arms and legs. They covered their faces too. They were very quiet.
+
+They waited for someone to find them. They thought they would surprise them.
+
+But no one came. No one saw them. No one heard them.
+
+They got bored. They got cold. They got scared.
+
+They tried to get up. But they could not. The leaves were too heavy. They could not move. They could not breathe.
+
+They cried for help. But no one heard them.
+
+They were stuck. They were alone. They were sad.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not play with things that can hurt you. Do not hide where no one can see you. Do not be silly when you should be careful.
+Lily liked to fly her kite. She had a big red kite with a long tail. She waited for a windy day to fly it high in the sky. She was ready to have fun.
+
+She went to the park with her mom and dad. They helped her tie the string to the kite. They ran with her to make the kite fly. Lily laughed as she saw the kite go up and up. She felt the string pull in her hand.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, my kite is flying!" she shouted.
+
+They looked and smiled. They were proud of Lily. They saw a bird fly near the kite. The bird was curious. It made a whistle sound. Lily heard it and looked.
+
+"Hello, bird, do you like my kite?" she asked.
+
+The bird whistled again. It flew closer to the kite. It pecked at the tail. It pulled a piece of cloth. The kite wobbled. Lily gasped.
+
+"Hey, bird, stop that, you are hurting my kite!" she said.
+
+The bird did not stop. It pecked more and more. The kite lost its balance. It fell down and down. Lily cried.
+
+"Mom, dad, help, my kite is falling!" she said.
+
+They ran to catch the kite. They reached it before it hit the ground. They hugged Lily and comforted her. They checked the kite. It had some holes and tears. It was not ready to fly anymore.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily, the bird was naughty. It ruined your kite," mom said.
+
+"It's okay, mom, I still love my kite. Maybe we can fix it. Or maybe we can get a new one. A blue one. With a whistle on it. To scare the birds away," Lily said.
+
+They smiled and nodded. They were glad Lily was not too sad. They kissed her and took her home. They promised to fly a kite with her again. A better kite. A kite that could whistle. A kite that was ready to fly.
+Ben is a big dog. He likes to run and play in the park. He has a lot of fur. He is brown and white.
+
+One day, Ben feels something tickle on his back. He tries to scratch it, but he can't reach it. He hears a tiny voice.
+
+"Hello, I am a flea. I live on your fur. You are very warm and cozy."
+
+Ben is surprised. He does not like fleas. They make him itch. He says to the flea.
+
+"Go away, flea. You are not welcome on my fur. You are very small and annoying."
+
+The flea says to Ben.
+
+"Please, don't be mean. I am an old flea. I have no other home. You are very big and kind. Can I stay with you?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He does not want to hurt the old flea. He says to the flea.
+
+"Okay, you can stay with me. But only if you promise not to bite me or make me itch. And you have to be quiet and polite."
+
+The flea says to Ben.
+
+"Thank you, thank you. I promise to be a good flea. You are very nice and generous. I will be your friend."
+
+Ben and the flea talk some more. They find out they have some things in common. They both like to eat and sleep. They both are afraid of cats. They both enjoy the sun.
+
+Ben and the flea become friends. They share Ben's fur. They talk and laugh. They are happy.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big box in the park. The box has many screws and parts. Tom and Jen want to make something with the box.
+
+"Let's order the screws by size," Tom says. "Then we can build a robot."
+
+"OK," Jen says. "That sounds great."
+
+They start to order the screws. They find big screws and small screws. They find long screws and short screws. They find shiny screws and rusty screws. They put them in different piles.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. The dog is hungry. The dog sees the screws. The dog thinks they are food. The dog runs to the box and starts to eat the screws.
+
+"Hey, stop!" Tom and Jen shout. "Those are our screws!"
+
+But the dog does not listen. The dog eats all the screws. The dog eats the parts too. The dog eats the box. There is nothing left for Tom and Jen.
+
+Tom and Jen are sad. They cannot make a robot. They have no toys. They have no screws. The dog has a bad tummy. The end.
+Tom and Sue wanted to play in the river. They saw a big raft near the bank. It looked like fun.
+
+"Let's go on the raft," Tom said. "We can float and splash and see the fish."
+
+"I don't know," Sue said. "Mom said to stay away from the river. It is deep and fast and dangerous."
+
+"Mom is not here," Tom said. "She will not know. Come on, it will be fun. I recommend it."
+
+Sue was scared, but she wanted to be brave. She followed Tom to the raft. They climbed on and pushed off. The raft started to move.
+
+At first, it was fun. They floated and splashed and saw the fish. They laughed and sang and waved to the birds. But then, the river got deeper and faster and more dangerous. The raft hit a rock and made a hole. Water came in and made the raft sink. Tom and Sue screamed and cried. They tried to swim, but the current was too strong. They got swept away.
+
+Mom came back and looked for Tom and Sue. She saw the raft near the bank. It was broken and wet. She saw their shoes and hats on the shore. She knew what happened. She was very sorry. She wished she had been there. She wished Tom and Sue had listened to her. She wished they had stayed away from the river.
+Jill loved her pony, Spot. He was brown and white and had a soft mane. Jill liked to brush him and feed him carrots. She also liked to ride him around the farm with her dad.
+
+One day, Jill and her dad went for a ride in the woods. They saw birds and squirrels and flowers. Jill was happy and so was Spot. But then, they heard a loud noise. It was a big truck on the road. Spot was scared of the noise. He ran away from it, very fast.
+
+Jill was frightened. She held on to Spot's back, but she could not stop him. She called for her dad, but he was far behind. She did not know where Spot was going. She saw trees and rocks and a river. She was in trouble.
+
+Her dad was worried. He saw Spot run away with Jill. He followed them, but he could not catch up. He hoped they would be okay. He shouted for Jill, but she did not hear him. He was in a panic.
+
+Spot was tired. He ran and ran, but he could not find a safe place. He saw a bridge over the river. He thought maybe he could cross it and get away from the noise. He slowed down and walked towards the bridge. He did not see that the bridge was broken. He stepped on a loose plank and fell into the water. He was in trouble, too.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play together. They had a plan for today. They wanted to make a big sandcastle at the park. They packed their buckets, shovels and hats in a bag and waited for their moms to take them.
+
+"Are you ready, Lily?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, I am, Ben. Let's go!" Lily said.
+
+They got in the car and drove to the park. It was a sunny day and the park was full of people. They found a nice spot near the sandbox and started to build their sandcastle. They worked hard and had fun. They made towers, walls and a moat. They decorated their sandcastle with shells, stones and flowers.
+
+"Wow, our sandcastle is so beautiful!" Lily said.
+
+"It is, Lily. We are good builders!" Ben said.
+
+They looked at their sandcastle and smiled. They were proud of their plan.
+
+Soon, it was noon. Their moms came to get them. They had brought sandwiches, juice and cookies for lunch.
+
+"Time to eat, kids. You must be hungry after all that work," Lily's mom said.
+
+"Thank you, mom. You are so thoughtful," Lily said.
+
+"Thank you, mom. You are so thoughtful, too," Ben said.
+
+They ate their lunch and shared their cookies. They thanked their moms and hugged them. They said goodbye to their sandcastle and to each other.
+
+"See you tomorrow, Lily," Ben said.
+
+"See you tomorrow, Ben," Lily said.
+
+They got in the car and drove home. They had a great day. They were happy with their plan.
+Anna loved to play in the garden. She liked to look at the flowers and the bugs and the birds. She also liked to pretend that there were fairies hiding in the leaves and the petals. She wished she could see a real fairy someday.
+
+One day, she found a shiny coin under a big rose. She was very happy and put it in her pocket. She thought maybe a fairy had left it for her. She wanted to say thank you, but she did not know how to find the fairy. She decided to leave something nice for the fairy in return.
+
+She went to the kitchen and asked her mom for a cookie. Her mom gave her a big, round, chocolate chip cookie. It was very yummy and smelled good. Anna broke off a small piece and ate it. She wrapped the rest of the cookie in a napkin and ran back to the garden.
+
+She looked for the best spot to leave the cookie for the fairy. She saw a small hole in the trunk of a tree. She thought maybe the fairy lived there. She carefully put the cookie inside the hole and waited. She hoped the fairy would like it.
+
+She did not have to wait long. She heard a tiny voice say, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" She looked closer and saw a little fairy peeking out of the hole. The fairy had wings like a butterfly and a dress like a flower. She was holding the cookie and smiling. Anna was so surprised and happy. She said, "You're welcome, you're welcome, you're welcome!" The fairy said, "You are very kind and sweet. I left the coin for you because I liked your singing. Do you want to be my friend?" Anna said, "Yes, yes, yes!" They both laughed and hugged. Anna guessed it was the best day ever.
+Anna and Ben are sister and brother. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. They also have a big closet. Sometimes they hide in the closet and pretend they are in a secret place.
+
+One day, they are playing in the closet. They hear their mom call them for lunch. They want to finish their game first. They do not answer their mom. They close the closet door and lock it. They think it is fun.
+
+But then they want to go out. They try to open the door. It does not open. They push and pull. It does not move. They are stuck in the closet. They are scared. They start to cry.
+
+"Mom! Mom! Help us!" they shout.
+
+Mom hears them. She comes to their room. She sees the closet door is locked. She does not have the key. She tries to break the door. It is hard. She calls dad. He is at work. He is a famous doctor. He helps many people. He says he will come home soon.
+
+Mom talks to Anna and Ben. She tells them to be calm. She says dad will be here soon. She says she loves them. Anna and Ben feel a little better. They hug each other. They wait for dad. They hope he will open the door. They are sorry they locked it. They will not do it again. They want to eat lunch. They are hungry. They are bored. They are tired. They want to get out of the closet.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the garden. They dig and run and laugh. But today they are restless. They want to do something new.
+
+"Look, Tim!" Sam says. "I found a big root. It is brown and hard. What can we do with it?"
+
+Tim thinks. He has an idea. He runs to the shed and gets a hammer and a nail. He comes back to Sam and the root.
+
+"Watch me, Sam!" Tim says. "I will make a ring with the root. A ring is a round thing that you can wear or hang. It is fun!"
+
+Tim puts the nail on the root and hits it with the hammer. He makes a hole in the root. He does it again and again until he has a ring. He shows it to Sam.
+
+"Wow, Tim!" Sam says. "You made a ring! It is cool! Can I try?"
+
+Tim gives Sam the hammer and the nail. Sam tries to make a ring too. He hits the nail on the root. But he hits too hard. The nail flies out of the root and hits the fence. It makes a loud noise.
+
+"Ring! Ring! Ring!" The fence rings. Tim and Sam laugh. They like the sound. They hit the fence with the nail and the hammer. They make more rings.
+
+"Ring! Ring! Ring!" The fence rings. Tim and Sam are happy. They are not restless anymore. They have a new game. They play with the root and the ring. They ring the fence. They have fun.
+Lily and Sam went to camp with Mom and Dad. They slept in a big tent and ate hot dogs and marshmallows. They liked camp very much.
+
+One day, they saw a lake near the camp. Lily wanted to swim in the lake, but Sam was scared of the water. He said, "No, Lily, the lake is too deep and cold. I don't want to swim."
+
+Lily said, "Don't be scared, Sam. I can teach you how to swim. It is fun and easy. Come on, let's go."
+
+Sam shook his head and said, "No, Lily, I don't want to learn. You go swim by yourself. I will stay here and play with my truck."
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She said, "Fine, Sam, you are a baby. You are missing all the fun. I will swim by myself and make new friends."
+
+She ran to the lake and jumped in. She splashed and laughed and swam with other kids. She had a lot of fun.
+
+Sam watched Lily from the shore. He felt lonely and bored. He wished he could swim with Lily and have fun too. He looked at his truck and said, "You are not fun. You are just a toy. I want to swim."
+
+He got up and walked to the lake. He saw Lily and said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I was scared, but now I want to learn. Can you teach me how to swim?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Of course, Sam. I'm glad you changed your mind. Come on, I will teach you. It is not hard. You just have to be calm and brave."
+
+She held Sam's hand and helped him into the water. She showed him how to kick and move his arms. She said, "See, Sam, you are swimming. You are doing great."
+
+Sam felt happy and proud. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. You are a good teacher. I like swimming. I like camp. I like you."
+
+They hugged and swam together. They had a lot of fun. They liked camp very much.
+Tommy loved to play with his trumpet. He liked to make loud noises and pretend he was in a band. He played his trumpet every day, even when his mom and dad said it was time for bed.
+
+One night, Tommy felt very tired. He had played his trumpet all day, and his mouth was sore. He wanted to sleep, but he also wanted to play his trumpet one more time. He had an urge to blow his trumpet as hard as he could.
+
+He got out of bed and picked up his trumpet. He put it to his lips and blew with all his might. He made a very loud noise that woke up his mom and dad and his baby sister. They all came to his room and looked at him with angry faces.
+
+"Tommy, what are you doing?" his mom asked. "It's late, and you need to sleep. You can't play your trumpet now. You're making too much noise and disturbing everyone."
+
+"But I love my trumpet," Tommy said. "I want to play it."
+
+"Tommy, you can play your trumpet tomorrow, when it's daytime," his dad said. "But now, you have to put it away and go to bed. You're very tired, and so are we. And so is your baby sister. She needs to sleep, too."
+
+Tommy looked at his baby sister, who was crying in his mom's arms. He felt sorry for making her cry. He realized he was being selfish and rude. He didn't want to upset his family. He decided to listen to his mom and dad.
+
+He put his trumpet back in its case and said, "I'm sorry, mom and dad. I'm sorry, baby sister. I won't play my trumpet now. I'll play it tomorrow. I'm tired, too. I want to sleep."
+
+His mom and dad smiled and hugged him. They said, "That's a good boy, Tommy. We love you, and we love your trumpet, too. But we also love our sleep. Good night, sweetie."
+
+They tucked him in his bed and kissed him good night. They turned off the light and left his room. Tommy closed his eyes and fell asleep. He dreamed of playing his trumpet in a band, but not too loud.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They saw a big basket of corn on the table. Lily liked corn. She wanted to eat some.
+
+"Can we have corn, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom was in the kitchen. She heard Lily and came outside. She smiled and said, "Yes, you can have some corn. But first, I need to explain something to you."
+
+"What do you need to explain, Mom?" Ben asked.
+
+Mom picked up a corn and showed it to them. "This is a corn. It has a green cover and yellow seeds inside. The seeds are called kernels. They are yummy and sweet. But you can't eat the corn like this. You need to cook it first."
+
+"How do you cook it, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom said, "You need to peel off the green cover and throw it away. Then you need to put the corn in a big pot of water. The water has to be very hot. Then you need to wait for a long time. The corn will get soft and hot. Then you can eat it with butter and salt."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They understood. They helped Mom peel the corn and put it in the pot. They waited for a long time. They smelled the corn. It smelled good.
+
+Mom said, "The corn is ready. Let's eat!"
+
+She gave them each a corn and a plate. She put butter and salt on the table. They took some butter and salt and put it on their corn. They bit into their corn. It was yummy and sweet. They smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom!"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, my loves. I'm glad you like corn. It's good for you. It makes you grow and fit."

+
+"Thank you, mister!" they said to the driver. "This is the best day ever!"
+
+"You're welcome, kids!" he said. "I'm glad you like my truck. It is my home and my family. I travel around the world and make people smile. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They thought about their home and their family. They liked the truck, but they also liked their own toys and beds. They shook their heads and smiled.
+
+"No, thank you, mister!" they said. "We like our home and our family too. But we will always remember your truck and your animals and your clown. They are very nice and fun!"

+
+"Let's play cops and robbers!" Tom says. He holds the pistol. "I am the cop. You are the robber. You have to run away with the zip car."
+
+"OK!" Sam says. He holds the zip car. He puts it on the ground. He pushes a button. The zip car zips away.
+
+"Stop, robber!" Tom says. He runs after Sam. He points the pistol. He presses a trigger. The pistol makes a loud bang.

+Anna says, "No, Tom, we can't. The bike is not ours. Maybe someone else left it here. It has a lock on it. See?" She points to the chain and the padlock around the wheel.
+
+Tom says, "I don't care. I can break the lock. I have a big rock. Watch me!" He picks up a rock and hits the lock hard. But the lock does not break. It makes a loud noise. Clang!
+
+The noise makes a man run to the bike. He is angry. He says, "Hey, what are you doing? That's my bike! You are trying to steal it! Go away, you naughty kids!"
+
+Tom and Anna are scared. They drop the rock and run away. They feel embarrassed. They know they did something wrong. They say sorry to each other. They decide to never touch things that are not theirs again.
+Lily liked to draw with her crayons. She had many colors and shapes to make on her paper. She also had an eraser to fix her mistakes. She was very careful with her eraser, because it was her favorite. It was pink and soft and smelled like strawberries.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and dad. She brought her crayons and paper and eraser with her. She found a nice spot under a tree and started to draw. She made a sun, a flower, a bird and a butterfly. She was very happy with her picture.
+
+But then, a big wind came and blew her paper away. Lily ran after it, but it was too fast. She saw it fly over the fence and into the street. She was very sad and scared. She did not want to lose her picture. She called for her mom and dad to help her.
+
+Her mom and dad heard her call and came to her. They saw the paper in the street and waited for the cars to stop. They crossed the street and got the paper for Lily. They gave it back to her and hugged her. They told her they were proud of her for being brave and smart.
+
+Lily looked at her paper and smiled. Her picture was still there, but it had something new on it. The wind had blown her eraser onto the paper, and it had made a funny shape. It looked like a heart.

+
+"Mom, can you fix the TV?" Anna asks.
+
+"I'm sorry, honey, I can't. The TV is very old and needs a new part. We have to wait for the repairman to come tomorrow," Mom says.
+
+"What can we do now?" Ben says.
+
+Mom thinks for a moment. She smiles and says, "Why don't you play with your toys? You have so many fun and colorful toys in your room. You can make up your own stories and games."
+
+Anna and Ben are not sure. They like their toys, but they like TV more. They go to their room and look at their toys. They see their stuffed animals, their blocks, their cars, their dolls, and their books.

+
+"Ribbit, ribbit. I'm a frog. I like to hop on the lily pads," he says in a soft voice.
+

+
+"Look, Lily, the fountain is so pretty!" Ben said. "Can we touch the water?"
+
+"OK, but be careful. It might be cold or wet," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the fountain and put their hands in the water. It felt nice and cool. They splashed each other and laughed.
+
+But then, Lily felt something tickle her nose. She tried to hold it in, but she couldn't. She sneezed very loud and hard. The water from the fountain went into her mouth and nose. She coughed and spit out the water.
+
+"Are you OK, Lily?" Ben asked. He was worried.
+
+Lily felt embarrassed. She didn't like to sneeze in front of Ben. She thought he would laugh at her or think she was silly.
+
+"I'm OK, Ben. I just sneezed. It was an accident," Lily said. She wiped her nose and mouth with her sleeve.
+
+Ben smiled and hugged her. He didn't laugh or think she was silly. He thought she was brave and funny.
+
+"It's OK, Lily. I sneeze sometimes too. It's not a big deal. You're still my best friend," Ben said.
+
+Lily felt better. She smiled and hugged him back. She was glad he was her best friend.
+
+They went back to playing in the park. They had fun and forgot about the sneeze. They didn't care about the fountain or the water. They only cared about each other.

+
+He wants more cake. He waits for Mom to go to the kitchen. Then he takes Anna's slice and puts it on his plate. He smiles. He thinks he is clever.
+
+But Anna sees him. She is sad and angry. She says, "Ben, that is not nice! You took my cake! That is mine! Give it back!"
+
+Ben says, "No, it is mine now. I want more cake. You have enough."
+
+Anna cries. She says, "No, you are wrong. You are greedy. You are mean. You are a bad brother!"
+
+Mom hears them. She comes back to the table. She sees what Ben did. She is not happy. She says, "Ben, what did you do? Why did you take Anna's cake? That is not fair. That is not kind. You have to share. You have to say sorry."

+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing high and slide fast. They saw a big balloon in the sky. It was red and shiny.
+
+"Look, a balloon!" Lily said.
+
+"Wow, it is so high!" Ben said.
+
+They wanted to catch the balloon. They ran after it. But the balloon was too fast and too high. They could not reach it.

+They saw a man with a hat. He was selling balloons. He had many balloons of different colors.
+
+"Excuse me, sir, can we have a balloon?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, you can have a balloon. But you have to pay me one dollar," the man said.
+
+Lily and Ben did not have any money. They felt sad.
+

+
+The man looked at them. He saw their hopeful eyes. He felt sorry for them.
+
+"Okay, I will give you one balloon for free. But you have to make me a promise," the man said.
+

+Anna loved to bake with her mom. They made cakes and cookies and pies. Anna liked to crack the eggs and pour the milk. But she hated the mixer. The mixer was loud and scary. It made a big noise and moved very fast. Anna was afraid it would hurt her or her mom.
+
+One day, mom said they would make a mild banana bread. Anna liked bananas. They were sweet and soft. Mom peeled some bananas and mashed them in a bowl. Then she added some flour and sugar and other things. She said it was time to use the mixer.
+
+Anna felt a cold shiver. She did not want to use the mixer. She hid behind a chair and said no. Mom smiled and said it was okay. She said the mixer was not so bad. She said it would make the banana bread smooth and fluffy. She said she would show Anna how to use it.
+
+Mom plugged in the mixer and turned it on. It made a low hum. Mom held it over the bowl and pressed a button. The mixer started to spin and mix the batter. It made a louder noise. Anna peeked from behind the chair. She saw the mixer moving in the bowl. She saw the batter getting smoother and fluffier. She saw mom smiling and humming along.
+
+Mom turned off the mixer and put it down. She said it was done. She said the banana bread was ready to go in the oven. She said Anna could help her put it in a pan and sprinkle some nuts on top. She said it would smell good and taste good. She said she was proud of Anna for being brave.
+
+Anna came out from behind the chair. She felt a warm glow. She did not hate the mixer anymore. She said she wanted to try it. She said she wanted to help mom bake more things. She said she loved mom and the mixer and the mild banana bread. Mom hugged her and said she loved her too. They put the banana bread in the oven and waited for it to bake.
+Lily was a cow who lived on a farm with many other animals. She liked to eat grass, drink water, and give milk to the farmer. The farmer was kind and took care of all the animals.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big truck near the gate of the farm. She was curious and walked closer to see what was inside. She saw some hay, some carrots, and some apples. She thought they looked yummy and wanted to try them.
+
+She pushed the gate with her nose and it opened. The gate was broken and the farmer did not know. Lily walked out of the farm and into the truck. She started to eat the hay, the carrots, and the apples. She did not hear the farmer calling her name.
+
+The farmer saw that Lily was missing and looked for her. He saw the open gate and the truck. He ran to the truck and saw Lily inside. He was angry and scared. He shouted at Lily.
+
+"Lily, what are you doing? You are a bad cow! You cannot leave the farm without me! You could get lost or hurt! Come back to the farm right now!"
+
+Lily heard the farmer and felt sorry. She did not mean to be bad. She just wanted to try something new. She stopped eating and looked at the farmer. She mooed softly and walked out of the truck. She followed the farmer back to the farm.
+
+The farmer fixed the gate and locked it. He gave Lily a hug and said, "Lily, I love you, but you have to stay on the farm. This is your home and these are your friends. You have everything you need here. Do not leave the farm again, okay?"
+
+Lily nodded and mooed. She understood and promised. She was happy to be back on the farm. She ate some grass, drank some water, and gave some milk to the farmer. She was a good cow.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big old tree with many branches. They wanted to climb the tree and see the birds and the sky.
+
+They found a low branch and helped each other to reach it. They felt happy and proud. They looked around and saw many things. They saw a squirrel with a nut, a dog with a ball, and a kite with a tail.
+
+"Look, Tom, a kite!" Lily said. "It is red and blue and has a long tail. I want to fly a kite too!"
+
+"Me too, Lily!" Tom said. "But we don't have a kite. Maybe we can make one."
+
+They thought hard. They saw some sticks and leaves on the ground. They picked them up and tried to make a kite. They tied the sticks together with a knot. They put a leaf on the sticks. They looked for something to make a tail.
+
+They saw a rope hanging from the tree. It was old and dirty. It had been there for a long time. They pulled the rope and broke it. They tied it to their kite. They had a tail!
+
+They ran with their kite and tried to make it fly. But the kite was too heavy and clumsy. It did not fly. It fell to the ground. They felt sad and disappointed.
+
+They saw the dog with the ball. The dog was friendly and playful. It ran to them and wagged its tail. It dropped the ball and barked.
+
+"Hi, dog!" Lily said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" the dog said. "I love to play! Can I have your kite?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at their kite. It was not a good kite. It did not make them happy. But maybe it could make the dog happy.
+
+"Sure, dog, you can have our kite!" Tom said. "Maybe you can chew it and have fun!"
+
+The dog was very happy. It took the kite and ran away. It chewed the kite and the rope and the knot. It made a big mess. But it did not care. It had fun.
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They did not mind. They were glad to make the dog happy. They decided to play with the ball instead. They threw the ball and caught it. They laughed and had fun.
+
+They forgot about the kite. They did not need it. They had each other and the ball and the dog. They had a good day.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big tree with many branches. Lily wants to climb the tree. She says to Ben, "Look, a tree! Let's climb it!"
+
+Ben is scared. He says to Lily, "No, no, no! The tree is too high. The branches are too hard. We can fall and hurt ourselves."
+
+Lily is not scared. She says to Ben, "Don't be silly. The tree is fun. The branches are strong. We can see the birds and the sky."
+
+Lily runs to the tree and starts to climb. She finds a branch that is good for sitting. She says to Ben, "Look, I am on the tree! Come and join me!"
+
+Ben is still scared. He says to Lily, "No, no, no! I don't want to climb. I want to stay on the ground. Please come down, Lily!"
+
+Lily does not listen. She says to Ben, "You are a baby. You are missing the fun. I am going to climb higher and higher."
+
+Lily tries to climb to another branch. But the branch is too thin and slippery. It breaks and Lily falls. She screams and cries. Ben runs to her and hugs her. He says to Lily, "Are you okay, Lily? I am sorry you fell. I was worried about you."
+
+Lily is hurt and sad. She says to Ben, "I am sorry, too. I was mean to you. I should have listened to you. The tree was too high. The branches were too hard. You are a good friend."
+
+Ben and Lily say sorry to each other. They go to find their mom and dad. They tell them what happened. Their mom and dad are glad they are okay. They give them a hug and a kiss. They say to them, "We love you, Lily and Ben. Next time, be careful and play safe."
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the garden. Lily had a big rubber ball that bounced high and made funny noises. Ben had a small wooden car that rolled fast and had shiny wheels. Lily liked her ball, but she also wanted to try Ben's car. She asked him, "Can I play with your car, please?"
+
+Ben said, "No, this is my car. You can play with your ball." He lifted his car and zoomed it around the grass. Lily felt envious. She wanted to lift the car and zoom it too. She thought, "Maybe I can take his car when he is not looking."
+
+She waited until Ben was busy with a flower. Then she sneaked over and grabbed his car. She lifted it and ran away. Ben saw her and shouted, "Hey, that's my car! Give it back!" He chased after her.
+
+Lily ran and ran, but Ben was faster. He caught up with her and tried to take his car back. They both pulled and tugged, but the car was not strong enough. It broke in half with a loud snap. Lily and Ben both gasped. They looked at the broken car and felt sad.
+
+They realized that they had been silly and mean. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They decided to share their toys and play together. They fixed the car with some tape and glue. They bounced the ball and rolled the car. They had fun and were happy.
+Ben and Mia like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is the big printer. The printer can print anything they want. They can print pictures, letters, numbers, shapes, and colors.
+
+One day, they want to print a ladder. A ladder is something you can use to go up and down. They see a ladder in a book. The ladder in the book is modern. It is shiny and has buttons and lights. Ben and Mia think it is cool.
+
+They put the book in the printer and press the button. The printer makes a noise and prints a ladder. The ladder is small, but it looks like the one in the book. Ben and Mia are happy. They take the ladder and go to their room.
+
+They put the ladder next to their bed. They want to use it to go to the top of their bed. They take turns to climb the ladder. They pretend they are in a spaceship or a castle. They have fun.
+

+Mia likes to help her mom in the kitchen. She likes to stir the soup, cut the bread, and set the table. She thinks her mom is the best cook in the world. She makes yummy food on the stove every day.
+
+One day, Mia's mom has a surprise for her. She says they are going to make a unique cake for dad's birthday. Mia is excited. She loves cake. She asks her mom what makes the cake unique. Her mom says they are going to use some special ingredients that dad likes.
+
+Mia and her mom go to the store and buy some bananas, chocolate, and nuts. They also buy some candles and a card. Mia helps her mom carry the bags home. They wash their hands and start to make the cake. Mia helps her mom mash the bananas, melt the chocolate, and chop the nuts. They mix everything together and pour it into a pan. They put the pan in the stove and wait for the cake to bake.
+
+Mia smells the cake and it makes her mouth water. She can't wait to taste it. She asks her mom how long they have to wait. Her mom says not too long. She says they have to let the cake cool down before they can decorate it. She says they can use some whipped cream and more nuts to make it look pretty.
+
+Mia and her mom provide the cake with a nice topping. They also write "Happy Birthday Dad" on the card and stick the candles on the cake. They hide the cake in the fridge and wait for dad to come home. Mia is happy. She thinks dad will love the cake. She thinks it is the most unique cake ever. She hugs her mom and says thank you.

+
+"Let me go first," said Bee. "I can fly to the jar and get some honey."
+
+"No, let me go first," said Goat. "I can climb the tree and get more honey."

+They began to fight. They pushed and pulled each other. They did not share.
+
+A hairy bear came out of the woods. He smelled the honey. He saw the jar on the tree. He saw Bee and Goat fighting.
+
+"Hello, little ones," said the bear. "What are you doing?"
+
+"We want the honey," said Bee and Goat. "But we cannot agree who goes first."
+
+The bear smiled. He had a big idea. He said, "Why don't you both go together? You can help each other and share the honey."
+
+Bee and Goat looked at each other. They felt sorry. They said, "You are right, Mr. Bear. We are sorry for fighting. We will work together and share the honey."

+
+The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. Friends don't fight over honey.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play together in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Lila wants to go on the slide, but Ben is scared.
+
+"Come on, Ben, it will be fun!" Lila says.
+
+"No, Lila, it is too high. I do not want to go on the slide." Ben says.
+
+Lila thinks for a moment. She has an idea.
+
+"Ben, I have a task for you. You can remain here and watch my doll. She is very special to me. You have to be loyal and keep her safe. Can you do that?" Lila asks.

+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw Mom go into the kitchen with a big bowl. They wondered what she was making.
+
+"Let's go and peek," Tom said. "Maybe it is something yummy."
+
+They tiptoed to the kitchen door and looked inside. Mom was rolling out some dough and putting it in a pan. She had some red and juicy things on the table.
+
+"Look, Lily, it is a pie!" Tom whispered. "A berry pie! I love berry pie, don't you?"
+
+"Yes, I do!" Lily whispered back. "Can we have some when it is done?"
+
+They heard Mom humming a song. She did not see them. She put the red things on the dough and covered them with another layer. She made some holes on the top and put the pie in the oven.
+
+"Let's go back to the garden," Tom said. "We don't want Mom to catch us peeking."
+
+They ran back to the garden and played some more. They smelled the pie baking and their mouths watered. They hoped Mom would call them soon.
+
+After a while, they heard Mom's voice. "Tom, Lily, come inside! I have a surprise for you!"
+
+They ran inside and saw Mom smiling. She had the pie on the table. It was golden and steamy.
+
+"Wow, Mom, it looks so good!" Tom said.
+
+"Thank you, Mom, it smells so good!" Lily said.
+
+Mom cut them each a big slice and gave them some cream. They ate the pie and licked their fingers. It was sweet and tart and delicious.
+
+"Did you like the pie?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we loved it!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+They hugged Mom and thanked her. They were very glad. They did not tell Mom that they had peeked. They thought it was their little secret.
+One night, Tom and his mom went outside to look at the stars. Tom liked the stars. They were bright and shiny. He pointed at them and said their names.
+
+"Look, mom, that's the Big Bear and that's the Little Bear and that's the Wagon."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged Tom. She said, "You are very smart, Tom. You know a lot of stars. But do you see that one? That's not a star. That's a comet."
+
+Tom looked where mom pointed. He saw a star with a long tail. It was moving across the sky. He said, "Wow, what's a comet?"
+
+Mom said, "A comet is a big ball of ice and dust that goes around the sun. Sometimes, we can see it from the earth. It has a tail because the sun makes it melt a little bit. The comet is very old. It has been around for a long, long time."
+
+Tom said, "That's amazing, mom. Can we introduce ourselves to the comet? Maybe it's lonely."
+
+Mom laughed and said, "Sure, Tom. We can say hello to the comet. Maybe it will hear us and wave back. But we have to be quick. The comet won't stay for long. It will go away soon and come back another time."
+
+Tom and mom waved their hands and shouted, "Hello, comet! We are Tom and mom. We are happy to see you. You are very beautiful and old. Have a nice trip around the sun. Come back soon. Goodbye, comet!"
+
+The comet seemed to sparkle a little bit more. Tom and mom felt happy. They had made a new friend in the sky. They hugged each other and went back inside. They dreamed of the comet and the stars.
+Sara was a little girl who liked to study. She wanted to learn many things, like how to read, how to count, and how to draw. She had many books and pencils and papers in her room. She studied every day, even when her friends asked her to play.
+
+One day, Sara saw a big, wide book in the library. It had many pictures of animals and plants and places. Sara wanted to study the book, but it was too heavy for her to carry. She asked the librarian for help, but the librarian said the book was for older kids, not for little girls.
+
+Sara felt sad and angry. She thought the librarian was mean and unfair. She decided to take the book anyway, when the librarian was not looking. She hid the book under her pink coat and ran out of the library.
+
+But Sara did not feel happy with the book. She felt guilty and scared. She knew she did something wrong. She could not enjoy the book, because she was afraid someone would find out and punish her. She could not study the book, because the words were too hard and the pictures were too small. She wished she had not taken the book.
+
+The next day, Sara went back to the library. She waited until the librarian was busy, and then she put the book back on the shelf. She felt sorry for what she did, and she hoped the librarian would not notice. She learned a lesson: she should not take things that do not belong to her, and she should be patient and respectful of others. She realized that there were many other books that she could study, that were right for her age and size. She found a small, pink book about fairies and flowers, and she borrowed it with the librarian's permission. She felt happy and proud. She went home and studied the book with joy.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+"Let's go on the slide!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Lily says.
+
+They run to the slide. But there is a problem. The slide is wet. It rained last night. The slide is slippery.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom says. "The slide is wet. We will get wet too."
+
+Lily looks at Tom. She has an idea. She has blue pants. Her pants are big and long. She can use her pants to dry the slide.
+
+"I have an idea!" Lily says. "I can use my pants to dry the slide. Then we can go on the slide."
+
+She takes off her pants. She holds her pants in her hands. She goes to the slide. She rubs her pants on the slide. She makes the slide dry.
+
+"Look!" Lily says. "The slide is dry now. I provide my pants to dry the slide."
+
+Tom is happy. He claps his hands. He says thank you to Lily.
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Tom says. "You are a good friend. You are smart and kind. You provide your pants to dry the slide."
+
+They put on their pants. They go on the slide. They have fun. They laugh and smile. They are happy. They are friends.
+Sara liked to touch her blanket. It was soft and warm and made her feel safe. She always took it with her when she went to bed or when she was sad or scared. She had her blanket since she was a baby and it was her best friend.
+
+One day, Sara went to the park with her mom and dad. She brought her blanket with her, of course. She liked to swing and slide and run with the other kids. She also liked to spin on the merry-go-round. She spun so fast that she felt dizzy. She laughed and laughed.
+
+But then, she saw a big dog. It was black and furry and had sharp teeth. It barked and ran towards her. Sara was afraid. She dropped her blanket and ran to her mom and dad. They hugged her and told her it was okay. The dog was just playing and it belonged to a nice lady.
+
+Sara felt better, but she wanted her blanket. She looked for it, but she could not find it. She asked her mom and dad, but they did not see it either. She started to cry. Where was her blanket?
+
+Then, she heard a familiar sound. It was the dog. It came back with something in its mouth. It was her blanket! The dog wagged its tail and dropped the blanket at Sara's feet. It licked her hand and looked at her with friendly eyes.
+
+Sara was surprised and happy. She picked up her blanket and hugged it. It was a little dirty and wet, but it was still soft and warm and made her feel safe. She thanked the dog and the nice lady. She smiled and said, "You are a good dog. You can touch my blanket too."
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their stuff. They have many toys, books, and games. But sometimes they want the same stuff. Then they fight and cry.
+
+One day, they see a big box in the living room. It has a bow and a tag. It says: "To Tom and Lily, from Grandma and Grandpa. Happy birthday!" They are very happy. They want to open the box and see what is inside.
+
+But Mom says: "No, you have to wait. Grandma and Grandpa will come soon. They want to see you open the box. Be patient, please."
+
+Tom and Lily are not patient. They worry that the box will go away. They worry that someone else will take it. They worry that it will not have good stuff. They start to pull the box and the bow. They start to make holes in the box.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes back. She sees the box and the twins. She is not happy. She says: "Stop, Tom and Lily! You are not being nice. You are not being patient. You are ruining the surprise. Grandma and Grandpa will be sad. How would you feel if someone did that to your stuff?"
+
+Tom and Lily feel bad. They say: "Sorry, Mom. We are sorry, Grandma and Grandpa. We will not touch the box anymore. We will wait and be patient. We will be nice and share the stuff."
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. She says: "Thank you, Tom and Lily. I love you. Grandma and Grandpa love you too. They will be here soon. And you will love the stuff in the box. It is very special. It is for both of you."
+Lila and Tom were playing in the garden. They saw a big tree with yellow fruits. Lila wanted to pick one.
+
+"Can we pick a fruit, Tom?" she asked.
+
+Tom looked at the tree. He saw a sign that said "Do not touch". He shook his head.
+
+"No, Lila. The sign says no. The fruits are not ours. They belong to Mr. Lee. He is very angry if we touch his things."
+
+Lila was sad. She really wanted to taste a fruit. She thought they looked like balls. She had an idea.
+
+"Maybe we can ask Mr. Lee if we can have one. He might be nice if we say please. Let's go and knock on his door."
+
+Tom was scared. He did not like Mr. Lee. He always shouted at them when they played near his fence. He did not want to go.
+
+"No, Lila. That is a bad idea. Mr. Lee will be mad. He will yell at us. He will tell our moms. He will not give us a fruit. He will give us a lemon."
+
+Lila did not know what a lemon was. She thought it was another kind of fruit. She was curious.
+
+"What is a lemon, Tom? Is it good?"
+
+Tom shook his head again.
+
+"No, Lila. A lemon is not good. It is sour and bitter. It makes your face funny. It makes your mouth hurt. You do not want a lemon. Trust me."
+
+Lila was confused. She did not understand why Mr. Lee would give them a lemon if they asked for a fruit. She thought maybe Tom was wrong. She wanted to try.
+
+"Come on, Tom. Let's go and ask. Maybe Mr. Lee will be nice today. Maybe he will give us a fruit and not a lemon. Maybe he will be happy to share. We will never know if we do not try."
+
+Tom felt helpless. He did not want to go, but he did not want to leave Lila alone. He did not want her to get in trouble. He did not want her to be sad. He followed her to the door.
+
+They knocked on the door. They waited. They heard footsteps. They saw the door open. They saw Mr. Lee. He looked angry. He looked at them with a frown.
+
+"What do you want, you little pests?" he said. "Can't you read the sign? Go away and leave me alone."
+
+Lila and Tom were scared. They wanted to run away. But Lila was brave. She smiled at Mr. Lee. She said in a sweet voice.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Lee. We are sorry to bother you. We are Lila and Tom. We live next door. We were playing in the garden. We saw your tree. It has beautiful fruits. We were wondering if you could please give us one. Just one. We will not touch the others. We will say thank you. We will be very happy."
+
+Mr. Lee was surprised. He did not expect the children to be polite. He did not expect them to ask for a fruit. He looked at the tree. He looked at the children. He thought for a moment. He had an idea.
+
+"Alright, alright. You can have one fruit. But only one. And only if you do something for me. Do you agree?"
+
+Lila and Tom nodded. They were excited. They thought Mr. Lee was going to be nice. They thought he was going to give them a fruit.
+
+"Good. Then follow me to the kitchen. I have something for you there."
+
+Mr. Lee led them to the kitchen. He opened the fridge. He took out a big yellow fruit. He cut it in half. He gave one half to Lila and one half to Tom. He smiled.
+
+"Here you go. Enjoy your fruit. It is called a lemon. It is very good for you. It has vitamin C. It is good for your health. Go ahead and try it. Tell me what you think."
+
+Lila and Tom looked at the lemon. They did not know what vitamin C was. They did not know what health was. They did not know what to think. They looked at each other. They shrugged. They decided to try.
+
+They bit into the lemon. They felt a shock. They felt a sting. They felt a sourness. They felt a bitterness. They made a funny face. They spit out the lemon. They cried.
+
+"Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! This is not a fruit! This is a lemon! This is bad! This is sour! This is bitter! This hurts! We do not like this! We do not want this! We want a real fruit! We want a ball!"
+
+Mr. Lee laughed. He laughed hard. He laughed loud. He laughed
+Ben and Lily were playing in their room. They had many toys and books, but they wanted to see what was in the big closet. The closet had a lock, and their mom said they should not open it.
+
+"Let's find the key and unlock the closet," Ben said. "Maybe there are more toys inside."
+
+"Okay," Lily said. "But we have to be quiet. Mom is in the kitchen."
+
+They looked around the room for the key. They checked under the bed, in the drawers, and on the shelves. They did not find the key.
+
+"Maybe it is in mom's room," Ben said. "Come on, let's go."
+
+They opened the door and walked to mom's room. The hall was dark, and they were a little scared. They held hands and walked fast.
+
+They reached mom's room and saw the key on the dresser. Ben grabbed it and ran back to the closet. Lily followed him.
+
+"Quick, unlock the closet," Ben said. He put the key in the lock and turned it. The closet opened with a click.
+
+They looked inside the closet and saw many clothes and shoes. They also saw a big box with a ribbon.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. "Let's open it."
+
+They pulled the box out of the closet and opened it. Inside, they saw a big teddy bear and a doll.
+
+"Wow, look at these!" Ben said. "They are so cute!"
+
+"They are for us!" Lily said. "Mom got them for our birthday!"
+
+They hugged the teddy bear and the doll and smiled.
+
+They did not hear mom coming to the room. She saw them with the box and the closet open.
+
+"Ben, Lily, what are you doing?" she asked. "You unlocked the closet without asking me?"
+
+Ben and Lily looked at mom and felt sorry. They knew they did something wrong.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," they said. "We wanted to see what was in the closet. We did not know you got us these toys."
+
+Mom sighed and smiled. She was not very angry. She knew they were curious and excited.
+
+"It's okay, my loves," she said. "But you should not unlock the closet without permission. It is not safe. And you should not walk in the dark hall. You could trip and fall."
+
+She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"I love you, Ben and Lily," she said. "And I'm glad you like your toys. They are for your birthday, which is tomorrow. But you can play with them now, if you want."
+
+"Thank you, mom," they said. "We love you too. And we love our toys. They are the best!"
+
+They played with the teddy bear and the doll, and mom watched them. She was happy to see them happy. She closed the closet and locked it. She did not mind that they unlocked the surprise.
+Sara and Ben are playing with cards. They have many cards with pictures of animals, fruits and colors. They want to match the cards that are the same. Sara picks a card with a red apple. She looks for another card with a red apple.
+
+"Ben, do you have a red apple?" she asks.
+
+Ben shakes his head. He has a card with a yellow banana. He looks for another card with a yellow banana.
+
+"Sara, do you have a yellow banana?" he asks.
+
+Sara shakes her head. She has a card with a blue bird. She looks for another card with a blue bird.
+
+They keep looking for matches, but they cannot find any. They are anxious. They want to finish the game.
+
+Then, they hear Mom calling them. She says it is time for lunch. She has a menu for them. They can choose what they want to eat.
+
+"Sara, Ben, come to the kitchen. I have a menu for you. Do you want pizza, pasta or salad?" she says.
+
+Sara and Ben run to the kitchen. They are hungry. They forget about the cards. They look at the menu. They see pictures of pizza, pasta and salad.
+
+They smile. They see something they like. They see something they can match.
+
+They point to the same picture. They say the same word.
+
+"Pizza!" they say.
+
+Mom laughs. She says they are good at matching. She says she will make them pizza. She says they can play with the cards later.
+
+Sara and Ben are happy. They hug Mom. They thank her for the menu. They wait for the pizza. They are not anxious anymore. They are excited.
+Lily was a cat with long, white fur. She liked to rub her head on her owner, Anna, when she was happy. Anna loved Lily and gave her food, water and toys.
+
+One day, Anna had to go to school. She said to Lily, "I will be back soon. Be good and stay inside." She kissed Lily and left. Lily was sad. She wanted to play with Anna.
+
+She looked out the window and saw a bird. The bird had long, yellow feathers and a red beak. It was sitting on a branch and singing. Lily thought the bird was pretty. She wanted to catch it.
+
+She jumped on the window sill and tried to open the window. She pushed and pushed with her paws, but the window was locked. She meowed and scratched, but no one heard her.
+
+She gave up and lay down on the window sill. She watched the bird fly away. She felt lonely and bored. She wished Anna would come back soon. She rubbed her head on the window and closed her eyes. She dreamed of playing with Anna and the bird.
+Tim and Sam were friends who liked to play with their scooters. They zoomed around the park, making loud noises and having fun. One day, they saw a big hill and wanted to go down it on their scooters.
+
+"Let's go, let's go!" Tim said. "It will be so fast and cool!"
+
+Sam was not sure. He looked at the hill and saw that it was very steep and had rocks and bumps. He thought it might be dangerous.
+
+"I don't know, Tim," Sam said. "It looks scary. What if we fall and hurt ourselves?"
+
+Tim laughed. He thought Sam was a baby. He did not listen to him. He set his scooter on the top of the hill and got ready to go.
+
+"Come on, Sam, don't be a chicken!" Tim said. "It's easy, just follow me!"
+
+Tim pushed his scooter and went down the hill. He felt the wind in his face and the thrill in his chest. He was going very fast. He did not see the big rock in his way. He hit the rock and lost his balance. He fell off his scooter and rolled on the ground. He scraped his knees and elbows and cried out in pain.
+
+Sam saw what happened and ran to help him. He was scared and worried. He picked up Tim's scooter and brought it to him. He helped him get up and checked his wounds.
+
+"Are you okay, Tim?" Sam asked. "That looked like it hurt a lot."
+
+Tim was in pain and felt sorry. He realized he was wrong to ignore Sam and to be mean to him. He learned his lesson.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam," Tim said. "You were right. The hill was too dangerous. I was foolish and you were wise. Thank you for helping me. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Sam smiled. He was a good friend. He forgave Tim and hugged him.
+
+"Of course, Tim," Sam said. "I'm glad you're okay. Let's go back to the park and play safely. And maybe we can find some band-aids on the way."
+
+They walked back to the park, holding their scooters and each other. They learned to be careful and to listen to their friends. They were happy and wise.
+Tim and Lily liked to play with their green jeep. They drove it around the yard, over the grass and the dirt. They made noises like vroom and beep. They had fun with their green jeep.
+
+One day, Tim and Lily saw a big truck in the street. The truck had a sign that said "Toys for Sale". They ran to the truck and looked at the toys. They saw dolls and cars and balls and books. They wanted to buy some toys.
+
+"Can we have some money, Mom?" they asked their mom, who was sitting on the porch.
+
+"No, you have enough toys already," their mom said. "You don't need more. Come back and play with your green jeep."
+
+But Tim and Lily did not listen. They wanted to buy some toys. They sneaked some money from their mom's purse. They ran to the truck and gave the money to the man. They picked some toys and put them in a bag.
+
+They were happy with their new toys. They forgot about their green jeep. They left it in the yard, alone and dirty.
+
+The next day, Tim and Lily wanted to play with their green jeep. They ran to the yard and looked for it. But they could not find it. They looked everywhere. They asked their mom.
+
+"Where is our green jeep, Mom?" they asked.
+
+"I don't know," their mom said. "Maybe someone took it. You should have taken care of it. You should not have left it in the yard. You should not have taken my money. You were naughty."
+
+Tim and Lily felt sad. They missed their green jeep. They wished they had not bought the new toys. They wished they had played with their green jeep. They cried and cried.
+
+They learned a lesson. They learned to be happy with what they had. They learned to listen to their mom. They learned to take care of their things.
+
+But they never saw their green jeep again. The end.
+Tom and Mia are hungry. They want to eat lunch. They go to the kitchen and see a big bowl of purple soup. It smells good.
+
+"Can we have some soup, Mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"Yes, you can. But be careful, it is hot. Use a spoon and blow on it first," Mom says.
+
+Tom and Mia sit at the table and take some soup. They feed themselves with the spoons. They like the purple soup. It is tasty and warm.
+
+"What is in the soup, Mom?" Mia asks.
+
+"It is made of purple carrots, purple potatoes, and purple beans. They are good for you. They have vitamins and minerals," Mom says.
+
+"Wow, purple is a nice color. And a yummy color too," Tom says.
+
+They eat all the soup and feel full and happy. They thank Mom for the lunch and help her clean the dishes. Then they go to play with their purple toys. They have a fun afternoon.
+Tim and Jen are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom. One day, they see a big slide. Tim wants to go on the slide, but Jen is scared.
+
+"Come on, Jen, it's fun!" Tim says. "You can go with me."
+
+"No, Tim, it's too high. I don't want to go." Jen says. She refuses to go on the slide.
+
+Tim goes on the slide by himself. He slides down fast and laughs. He feels happy. He wants to go again.
+
+"Look, Jen, it's not scary. It's fun!" Tim says. He runs up the stairs to the slide.
+
+But Jen sees something on the slide. It is green and sticky. It looks like a mint. But it is not a mint. It is a dirty gum. Someone left it on the slide.
+
+"Tim, wait! There is something on the slide!" Jen shouts. "It is dirty!"
+
+But Tim does not hear her. He slides down again. He feels something on his back. It is the dirty gum. It sticks to his shirt. He feels yucky.
+
+"Yuck! What is this?" Tim says. He tries to take it off, but it is hard.
+
+"It is a dirty gum, Tim. I told you to wait." Jen says. She feels sorry for Tim.
+
+"I'm sorry, Jen. I should have listened to you." Tim says. He feels sad.
+
+Mom comes to help Tim. She takes off the dirty gum. She gives Tim a hug. She gives Jen a hug too.
+
+"Let's go home, kids. I have some real mints for you." Mom says. She smiles.
+
+Tim and Jen smile too. They learn to listen to each other. They like mints. But they don't like dirty gum.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. Tim wanted to go near the pond, but Lily was scared.
+
+"Come on, Lily, it's fun!" Tim said. "We can throw sticks and stones and watch them splash."
+
+"No, Tim, it's wet and cold and deep. Mommy said we can't go near the pond. We can get hurt or sick or lost." Lily said.
+
+"Mommy won't know. I promise I won't let anything bad happen to you. Please, Lily, please!" Tim said.
+
+Lily did not want to make Tim sad. She liked Tim. He was her best friend. She said yes, but only for a little while. They went near the pond and looked for sticks and stones. They found a big stick and a small stone. Tim threw the stone and it made a small splash. Lily threw the stick and it made a big splash. They laughed and clapped.
+
+"Let's do it again!" Tim said. He ran to get the stick. He did not see the slippery mud. He slipped and fell into the pond. He screamed and splashed. Lily screamed and cried. She did not know what to do. She could not swim. She could not reach Tim. She could only watch him sink and disappear.
+
+The end.
+Lily liked to play with her figures. She had many figures of animals, people and cars. She made stories with them and talked to them. Sometimes she asked them questions, like "What do you like to eat?" or "Where do you want to go?"
+
+One day, she found a new figure in her toy box. It was not like her regular figures. It was shiny and had wings and a horn. It looked like a horse, but not a real horse. Lily was curious. She picked up the figure and said, "Hello, what are you?"
+
+The figure did not answer. Lily asked again, louder, "Hello, what are you?" She shook the figure a little. Still no answer. Lily was puzzled. She thought maybe the figure was shy or did not hear her. She decided to be nice and friendly. She said, "My name is Lily. I like to play with figures. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+To her surprise, the figure spoke. It had a soft and sweet voice. It said, "Hello, Lily. I am a unicorn. I like to play too. But I am not a figure. I am a magic toy. I can fly and grant wishes. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily was amazed. She had never seen a magic toy before. She nodded and said, "Yes, please. I want to see. Can you show me how you fly and grant wishes?"
+
+The unicorn smiled and said, "Of course. Hold me in your hand and close your eyes. Think of something you wish for. Then open your eyes and see what happens."
+
+Lily did as the unicorn said. She held the unicorn in her hand and closed her eyes. She thought of something she wished for. She wished for a rainbow in the sky. Then she opened her eyes and looked up. She saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky. She gasped and clapped her hands. She said, "Wow, you are amazing. You made a rainbow. Thank you, unicorn. You are my new best friend."
+
+The unicorn said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are my new best friend too. I am glad you found me. I was lonely in the toy box. Now we can play together and have fun. Do you want to make another wish?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I do. I wish for more stories with you." She hugged the unicorn and smiled. She was happy. She had a magic toy and a new friend. She wondered what other adventures they would have.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big black bird on a tree. It was a raven. The raven had shiny eyes and a loud voice.
+
+"Hello, raven!" Lila said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The raven looked at them and said, "No, I don't want to play with you. You are too slow and boring. I like to fly fast and have fun. You can't catch me or keep up with me. You are just silly kids."
+
+Lila and Ben felt sad and hurt. They liked the raven and wanted to be friends with him. They tried to run after him, but he flew away. He laughed at them and said, "Ha ha, you are so slow! You can't catch me!"
+
+Lila and Ben stopped running. They realized that the raven was not nice. He was mean and rude. He did not care about their feelings. He only wanted to excite himself and make fun of others.
+
+They decided to ignore the raven and play with each other. They had a lot of fun. They played with the ball, the swing, and the slide. They laughed and smiled. They were happy.
+
+The raven saw them and felt lonely. He wanted to join them, but they did not want him. They said, "No, we don't want to play with you. You are too fast and mean. You like to fly away and hurt us. You are not a good friend."
+
+The raven learned a lesson. He learned that being fast and exciting is not enough. He learned that being kind and caring is more important. He learned that he should not judge others by their speed or appearance. He learned that he should respect and value others. He learned that he should be a good friend.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they found a big box under a tree. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a present for us!" Lily said.
+
+"Or maybe it is a trap!" Ben said.
+
+They decided to open the box and see. They lifted the lid and saw a lot of shiny things. There were necklaces, rings, bracelets, and earrings. They sparkled in the sun.
+
+"Wow, look at all the jewels!" Lily said. "They are so pretty!"
+
+She reached for a necklace and put it around her neck. She felt like a princess.
+
+"Can I have one too?" Ben asked.
+
+He picked up a ring and tried to put it on his finger. But it was too small. He tried another one, but it was too big. He tried a third one, but it was too tight. He pulled and pulled, but it would not come off.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben cried. "It hurts! Help me, Lily!"
+
+Lily tried to help him, but the ring was stuck. She pulled and pulled, but it would not budge.
+
+"Maybe we should ask for help," Lily said.
+
+But before they could do anything, they heard a loud voice.
+
+"Hey, you two! What are you doing with my jewels?" It was a man with a big beard and a big hat. He looked very angry. He came out from behind the tree and ran towards them.
+
+He was the owner of the box. He had hidden it there while he went to buy some food. He did not like anyone touching his things. He was very rude.
+
+He grabbed the box and the necklace from Lily. He yanked the ring from Ben's finger. He made them cry.
+
+"Go away, you little thieves!" he shouted. "These are mine, mine, mine!"
+
+He took his box and left. He did not say sorry. He did not care.
+
+Lily and Ben were very sad. They hugged each other and ran home. They told their moms what happened. Their moms hugged them and gave them cookies. They said they were brave and good.
+
+That night, Lily and Ben had a dream. They dreamed that they found a bigger box with more jewels. They dreamed that they shared them with their friends. They dreamed that they were happy.
+
+They did not dream about the rude man. They did not want to see him again. They hoped he would learn to be nice. They hoped he would shake his bad mood. They hoped he would find a friend.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can use the blocks to make houses, cars, animals and more.
+
+One day, they want to make a big tower with all the blocks. They start to put the blocks on top of each other. They try to make the tower as high as they can. They have fun and laugh.
+
+But then, the tower starts to wobble. It is not stable. Some blocks fall down. Anna and Ben are sad. They do not want their tower to fall.
+
+"Let's try again," Anna says. "But this time, we need to be smart. We need to use the blocks in a different way."
+
+"How?" Ben asks.
+
+"Look," Anna says. "We can use the long blocks to make the base of the tower. They are strong and flat. They can hold the other blocks. Then, we can use the square blocks to make the sides of the tower. They are easy to stack and fit. And then, we can use the small blocks to make the top of the tower. They are light and cute. Do you see?"
+
+"Yes, I see," Ben says. "That is a smart idea. Let's do it."
+
+Anna and Ben use the blocks in the new way. They make a big tower with a strong base, stable sides and a nice top. The tower does not wobble. It stands tall and proud. Anna and Ben are happy. They hug and cheer.
+
+"We did it!" Anna says.
+
+"We did it!" Ben says.
+
+They look at their tower and smile. They are smart and good friends.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Lily sees a new doll in Ben's room. She wants to play with it. She asks Ben, "Can I have your doll?"
+
+Ben says, "No, it is mine. Mom gave it to me. You have your own toys."
+
+Lily is sad. She waits until Ben goes to the bathroom. Then she takes the doll and runs to her room. She hugs the doll and says, "You are mine now."
+
+Ben comes back and sees that his doll is gone. He looks for it everywhere. He is angry. He goes to Lily's room and knocks on the door. He says, "Give me back my doll. You took it without asking. That is not nice."
+
+Lily does not want to open the door. She is scared. She says, "No, I like the doll. It is pretty. You have many toys. You do not need it."
+
+Ben says, "That is not fair. The doll is mine. You are a bad friend. I do not want to play with you anymore."
+
+Lily and Ben are both unhappy. They do not talk to each other for the rest of the day. They go to bed with angry faces.
+
+The next morning, Lily wakes up and sees the doll on her pillow. She remembers what she did. She feels sorry. She thinks, "I was wrong. I should not have taken Ben's doll. He is my friend. I do not want to make him sad."
+
+She gets up and takes the doll. She goes to Ben's room and knocks on the door. She says, "Ben, I am sorry. I brought back your doll. I should not have taken it. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Ben opens the door and sees Lily and the doll. He is surprised. He says, "Lily, you are sorry? You returned my doll? Thank you. I was wrong too. I should not have yelled at you. You are my friend. Can we play together again?"
+
+Lily and Ben smile at each other. They hug and say, "We are sorry. We are friends. Let's play with the doll and share our toys."
+
+They are happy again. They learn to be kind and honest. They have fun with the doll and their other toys.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the wood near their house. They see many animals and plants in the wood. They have fun.
+
+One day, they find a big stick in the wood. They think it is a sword. They pretend to be knights and fight with the stick. They laugh and run and jump.
+
+"Ha! I got you, Ben!" Lily says. She taps Ben with the stick.
+
+"No, you did not, Lily!" Ben says. He taps Lily back.
+
+They play for a long time. They get tired. They sit on a log and rest.
+
+"I like to play with you, Lily," Ben says.
+
+"I like to play with you, too, Ben," Lily says.
+
+They smile and hug. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tim and Lily were playing on the beach. They had a big kite that looked like a bird. They wanted to make it soar in the sky. They ran with the kite and let go of the string. The kite flew up and up, catching the wind.
+
+"Wow, look at our kite!" Tim said. "It is so high and fast!"
+
+"It is like a real bird!" Lily said. "I wish we could fly too!"
+
+They watched the kite with joy. But then, a gust of wind blew the kite away. The string snapped and the kite flew out of sight.
+
+"Oh no, our kite!" Tim cried. "We lost it!"
+
+Lily felt sad too. She hugged Tim and said, "Don't worry, maybe we can find it later."
+
+They looked around the beach. They saw many people and things. They saw boats and fish and shells and sand. They saw a big metal thing that looked like a hook. It was an anchor. It was on a boat that was not busy. It was parked on the shore.
+
+"Hey, look at that!" Tim said. "It is an anchor. It holds the boat in place."
+
+"Maybe we can use it to hold our kite too!" Lily said. "If we find our kite, we can tie it to the anchor. Then it won't fly away again!"
+
+They liked the idea. They ran to the boat and asked the man who owned it.
+
+"Excuse me, sir, can we use your anchor?" Tim asked.
+
+The man smiled and said, "Sure, kids, you can use it. What do you need it for?"
+
+"We need it to hold our kite!" Lily said. "We lost our kite in the wind. It was so high and fast. It was like a real bird!"
+
+The man laughed and said, "That sounds like a fun kite. I hope you find it. Here, you can use this rope too. It is long and strong. It will help you tie your kite to the anchor."
+
+"Thank you, sir!" Tim and Lily said. They took the rope and the anchor and went to look for their kite.
+
+They searched the beach and the sea. They asked other people and animals. They did not give up. They hoped to find their kite and make it soar again.
+Sam and Lily liked to play hide and seek in the park. They knew many good spots to hide, like behind the trees, under the bench, or in the slide. But there was one place they never hid: the dark tunnel under the bridge. They were afraid of what they might see in there.
+
+One day, Lily had an idea. She wanted to be brave and hide in the tunnel. She told Sam to count to ten and then look for her. She ran to the tunnel and crawled inside. It was very dark and tight. She could not see anything. She felt something soft and furry touch her leg. She screamed.
+
+Sam heard Lily scream and ran to the tunnel. He was scared too, but he wanted to help his friend. He crawled inside and saw a faint light at the other end. He followed the light and found Lily. She was crying and holding a small cat. The cat was the thing that touched her leg.
+
+Sam hugged Lily and said, "It's okay, it's just a cat. He was hiding here too. He is not scary, he is cute. Look, he has a collar with his name. His name is Max." He showed Lily the collar and the name.
+
+Lily stopped crying and looked at the cat. She saw that he was black and white and had green eyes. He looked friendly and soft. She said, "Sorry, Max. I was scared of you. I did not know you were here. You are a nice cat." She petted the cat and smiled.
+
+Sam smiled too and said, "Let's take Max out of the tunnel. He might want some sun and some food. Maybe we can find his owner. Come on, I'll explain to you how to hold him." He helped Lily pick up the cat and they crawled out of the tunnel. They were happy and proud. They had faced their fear and made a new friend.
+Lily was very happy today. It was her birthday and she had a big cake with candles. She also had many presents from her family and friends. She opened them one by one and said thank you.
+
+She received a doll, a book, a ball, and a puzzle. She liked them all, but she wanted something else. She wanted a furry friend to play with and hug. She asked her mom, "Mom, can I have a furry friend for my birthday?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Maybe, Lily. Maybe there is one more present for you. But you have to close your eyes and wait."
+
+Lily closed her eyes and waited. She heard a soft sound and felt something warm and fuzzy on her lap. She opened her eyes and saw a cute kitten with white fur and blue eyes. She gasped and said, "A furry friend! A furry friend for me!"
+
+She hugged the kitten and kissed its nose. The kitten purred and licked her cheek. Lily was so happy and said, "Thank you, Mom! Thank you for the best present ever! I love my furry friend!"
+
+Mom hugged Lily and the kitten and said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you like your furry friend. What will you name it?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment and said, "I will name it Wonder. Because it is a wonder that I have it."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's a lovely name, Lily. Wonder is a lucky kitten to have you as a friend."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "And I'm a lucky girl to have Wonder as a friend. Happy birthday to me!"

+
+She ran to the kitchen and got some food for the dog. She put the food in a bowl and took it outside. She called the dog softly. "Come here, doggy. I have some food for you. Don't be afraid. I want to be your friend."
+
+The dog heard Sara's voice and smelled the food. He was scared, but also curious. He slowly came closer to Sara and the bowl. He sniffed the food and licked it. It was tasty and warm. He wagged his tail and looked at Sara with grateful eyes.
+
+Sara smiled and petted the dog gently. She said, "You are a good dog. Do you have a name? Do you have a home?" The dog barked and licked Sara's face. He did not have a name or a home. He had been alone for a long time.
+
+Sara said, "I will give you a name and a home. You can be my dog. I will call you Lucky, because you are lucky to find me and I am lucky to find you. Come on, Lucky, let me lead you to my house. You can meet my family and play with my toys. You will be happy and safe with me."

+
+One day, Sam's dad tells him that they are going to a jazz festival in the park. Sam is very enthusiastic. He runs to his room to get his toy trumpet.

+His dad says, "I love you too, Sam. And I'm proud of you. You have a talent for jazz music. Now let's go to the park and have some fun."

+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to pretend they were superheroes and villains. Lily was the good superhero and Ben was the bad villain. Ben had a toy gun that made a loud noise and a red light. Lily had a toy shield that could block the gun.
+
+"Stop, villain!" Lily shouted. "You can't hurt anyone with your gun!"
+
+"Yes, I can!" Ben said. "I have a secret weapon. It's a flame!"
+
+Ben pressed a button on his gun and a small flame came out of the tip. He pointed it at Lily's shield.
+
+"Ha, ha, ha!" Ben laughed. "Your shield can't stop my flame!"
+
+Lily was scared. She didn't like the flame. It was hot and bright and dangerous. She dropped her shield and ran away.
+
+"Help, help!" Lily cried. "The flame is chasing me!"
+
+Mom heard Lily's cry and came to the living room. She saw Ben with his gun and the flame. She was very alert. She knew the flame could hurt Lily and the toys and the house.
+
+"Ben, stop that right now!" Mom said. "That's not a toy. That's a lighter. You can't play with that. It's very bad."
+
+Mom took the gun from Ben and turned off the flame. She was angry and worried. She wiped the sweat from her forehead.
+
+"Mom, I'm sorry!" Ben said. "I didn't know it was a lighter. I thought it was a cool weapon."
+
+"Ben, you have to be careful with fire. Fire can burn you and others and things. Fire is not a game. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+"Yes, Mom, I understand. I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to scare you." Ben said.
+
+Lily came back to the living room. She was still scared, but she forgave Ben. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Ben. I'm glad you're not a real villain."
+
+Mom hugged them both and said, "I'm glad you're both safe. But no more playing with fire, okay?"
+
+"Okay, Mom." Lily and Ben said.
+
+They put away their toys and played something else. They learned their lesson. Fire is not a toy. Fire is not a game. Fire is a flame.
+Tim loves cars. He likes to play with his toy cars and make them speed on the floor. He pretends he is a mechanic and fixes them when they break. He has many cars, but his favorite is a red car with a big engine.

+
+At the shop, Tim sees a mechanic working on a blue car. He is wearing a dirty suit and a hat. He has a wrench and a screwdriver. Tim walks up to him and says, "Hello, mechanic. Can you fix my car too?"
+
+The mechanic looks at Tim and smiles. He sees the red car in his hand. He says, "Sure, little buddy. What's wrong with your car?"
+
+Tim says, "It makes a funny noise. And it doesn't speed as fast as before."
+
+The mechanic takes the red car and pretends to examine it. He says, "Hmm, I see. Your car needs some oil and a new spark plug. Don't worry, I can fix it in a jiffy."
+
+He puts some oil on the car and gives it a new spark plug. He hands it back to Tim and says, "There you go. Your car is good as new. Now it can speed like a rocket."
+
+Tim is very happy. He thanks the mechanic and hugs his car. He says, "Wow, thank you, mechanic. You are the best. My car is awesome."
+
+The mechanic laughs and says, "You're welcome, little buddy. You have a nice car. And you are a good mechanic too. Keep playing and learning."
+
+Tim's mom comes back and says, "Tim, are you ready to go? The mechanic fixed our car too. It was just a regular check."
+
+Tim says, "Yes, mom. I'm ready. But can we come back here someday? I like the mechanic. He fixed my car too. He is my friend."
+
+Tim's mom says, "Of course, Tim. We can come back here someday. The mechanic is very nice. He is our friend too."
+Tom and Sue are playing with blocks. They have a big brown board on the floor. They want to make a house with the blocks.
+
+"Look, I have a red block. It is a door," Tom says. He puts the block on the board.
+
+"I have a blue block. It is a window," Sue says. She puts the block next to the red block.
+
+They keep putting blocks on the board. They make a wall, a roof, and a chimney. They are happy with their house.
+
+But then, they see a problem. The board is too small. Some of the blocks do not fit on the board. They fall off the edge.
+
+"Oh no, our house is broken!" Tom cries.
+
+"What can we do?" Sue asks.
+
+They think for a moment. Then, they have an idea.
+
+"Let's move the board. Maybe we can find a bigger space," Tom says.
+
+"Good idea," Sue says.
+
+They pick up the board and the blocks. They look around the room. They see a big rug in the corner. It is green and soft.
+
+"Let's try the rug. It is bigger than the board," Sue says.
+
+They put the board and the blocks on the rug. They fit. They fix their house. They are happy again.
+
+"Yay, our house is not broken anymore!" Tom says.
+
+"It is a nice house. I like it," Sue says.

+They smile at each other. They keep playing with their blocks. They have fun.
+Tom and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill and wanted to climb it. They ran up the hill, but it was very steep. Tom stumbled and fell down. He hurt his knee and cried.
+
+"Are you okay, Tom?" Mia asked. She was worried about her friend. She ran to him and gave him a hug.
+
+"It hurts, Mia. It hurts a lot," Tom said. He showed her his knee. It was red and bleeding.
+
+Mia looked around. She saw a bench near the hill. On the bench, there was a radio. Someone had left it there. Mia had an idea.
+
+"Come on, Tom. Let's go to the bench. Maybe the radio can help us," Mia said. She helped Tom stand up and walk to the bench. She turned on the radio and looked for a button.
+
+"Hello, hello. Is anyone there?" Mia said into the radio. She hoped someone would hear her and come to help.
+
+The radio made a noise. Mia and Tom heard a voice.
+
+"Hello, this is the park ranger. Who is this?" the voice said.
+
+"Mia and Tom. We are in the park. Tom hurt his knee. Can you help us?" Mia said.
+
+"Of course, Mia and Tom. I'm on my way. Stay where you are and don't worry. I'll be there soon," the voice said.
+
+Mia and Tom felt better. They knew the park ranger would come and make Tom's knee better. They waited on the bench and listened to the radio. They heard some songs and stories. They smiled and held hands. They were brave and happy.
+Ben and Lily were twins who loved to play in the park. One day, they saw a big truck with a cage inside. The truck had a sign that said "Zoo". Inside the cage, there was a tiger. The tiger looked sad and tired.
+
+"Hello, tiger," Ben said. "Why are you in the cage?"
+
+The tiger did not answer. He just lay down and closed his eyes.
+
+"Maybe he is sick," Lily said. "Or maybe he is lonely. He needs a friend."
+
+Lily had an idea. She took her teddy bear from her backpack and threw it into the cage. The tiger opened his eyes and saw the teddy bear. He sniffed it and licked it. Then he cuddled it and smiled.
+
+"Look, Ben," Lily said. "He likes the teddy bear. He is happy now."
+
+The tiger looked at Lily and Ben and made a soft sound. He was grateful for the gift. He wanted to say thank you, but he did not know how.
+
+"Bye, tiger," Ben said. "We have to go home now. But we will come back and visit you soon."
+
+"Bye, tiger," Lily said. "We hope you sleep well with your teddy bear."
+
+The tiger nodded and waved his paw. He watched them leave and then closed his eyes again. He felt warm and cozy with his teddy bear. He fell asleep and dreamed of running free in the jungle.
+Lily and Lola are twins. They like to collect things. They have a big box of things they find. They have shells, rocks, feathers, buttons, and stickers.
+
+One day, they go to the park with Mom. They see a pond with ducks. They want to collect duck feathers. They run to the pond and look for feathers.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a big feather!" Lola says. She picks up a white feather and puts it in her pocket.
+
+"Good job, Lola!" Lily says. She finds a brown feather and puts it in her pocket too.
+
+They keep looking for feathers. They see a duck with a shiny green feather on its head. They want that feather too.
+
+"Let's get that feather, Lily!" Lola says. She tries to get closer to the duck.
+
+"Be careful, Lola!" Lily says. She follows Lola.
+
+But the duck does not like them. It quacks loudly and flaps its wings. It splashes water at them. Lily and Lola get wet and scared.
+
+"Mom, help!" they cry. Mom comes and picks them up. She takes them away from the pond.
+
+"It's okay, girls. The duck was just protecting its feathers. You can't take them. They belong to the duck." Mom says.
+
+Lily and Lola feel sorry. They did not know that. They say sorry to the duck.
+
+"Sorry, duck. We won't take your feathers." they say.
+
+The duck calms down. It nods its head.
+
+Lily and Lola hug Mom. They are happy. They still have their own feathers. They go home and put them in their box.

+The lady smiled and said, "You're welcome, Tom. Have a nice day."
+

+
+He tried to climb up the slide again, but it was too slippery. He fell down and hurt his leg. He cried and cried. His mom came and hugged him. She saw Bob on the slide and got him down. She gave him to Tom and checked his leg. It was not bad, just a scratch. She put a band-aid on it and kissed it.
+

+
+The little boy asked his mother, "May I try the fruit?"
+
+His mother warned him, "No! That fruit is full of poison and it can make you sick." 
+
+Her words seemed to go in one ear and out the other, because he kept trying to get close to the tree the next few days. Each time, his mother would quickly stop him and remind him that the fruit was poison. 
+
+On the fourth day, the little boy was determined to get the fruit. He climbed up the tree, reached a branch, and split open the fruit with his hands.

+Ben started hacking away at a tree with his axe. But, after a few minutes he heard a voice from behind him. It was the voice of an old woman who lived in the woods. 
+
+"What do you think you're doing young man?" the old woman said. 
+
+"I'm just chopping down the tree to make something fun," Ben said. 
+
+The old woman was not happy. 
+
+"No, you must not chop down the tree! The birds and other animals in the woods need it as shelter," she said. 
+
+Ben stopped and started to feel sad. He hadn't realized how important the tree was. He apologized to the old woman and promised never to chop down a tree again. 
+
+The old woman felt a little better, so she said, "Let me help you make something fun. You can collect some rocks, twigs and leaves and I will help you melt them together into something special."

+Once upon a time, there was a seal who loved to zoom around the ocean. He zoomed and zipped, spinning and looping, enjoying life in the deep blue. One day he met another seal who could zoom even faster than him. He was very amazed and asked the other seal to show him how it was done.
+
+The other seal said, "it's not just about speed. You need to use your powerful fins to make you go even faster. That's why I'm so speedy".
+
+The first seal tried this tip and he soon zoomed faster than ever before. But then he got too close to the shore and was stuck in the sand!
+
+The other seal told him, "you used your power but you need to use it wisely. You have to think before you zoom".
+
+The first seal nodded and thanked his new friend before swimming away. He never forgot the lesson he had learnt and always zoomed with caution after that.

+The moral of the story is that powerful things should be used wisely. If you overuse your power, you can get yourself into trouble.

+
+John spotted a beautiful bird in the sand. "Look mom!" He said with a smile. He ran towards the bird to get a closer look.

+John's mom became worried. She called over to him, "John! Don't get too close. It's best to leave it so it can be free". But John didn't listen. 
+
+John reached out and tried to catch the bird. It flew away from him in a hurry. John started to cry. He wanted to see the bird up close. 
+
+"John, there's a reason why we have to leave the bird alone," his mom said. "We can't keep it in a cage. We have to let the bird go, so it can be free. That way, we can still see it and enjoy the beautiful sight it brings."
+
+John realized his mom was right. They watched the bird fly away and be released in its natural environment.
+
+John learned an important lesson that day: Freedom is valuable. And to truly appreciate something, it is best to not take it away and keep it but to let it be free.

+
+The tall man handed her a piece of paper. She thought it looked like fun so she started to fold it. But then, the tall man suddenly snatched it away. 
+
+The little girl gasped. "Why did you take it?" she asked.
+

+
+The little girl thought for a moment and said, "Your tail must have dropped somewhere, but try to remember not to be sad if you can't find things. Be happy and you will find it again."
+
+The tiger thanked the little girl for her advice. He looked around and he soon found his tail. He smiled and waved goodbye to the little girl before running off to play with his tail.
+
+The moral of the story is that it's important not to give up if you can't find something. Keep your head up, be kind and patient, and good things will happen.
+Once upon a time, there was a mom and a little girl. All day, they did different activities and had lots of fun together. One day, they were playing on the carpet in their living room. The carpet was purple. Suddenly, the little girl asked her mom an interesting question. She asked "Why is the carpet purple?".

+The mom took a deep breath and stopped for a moment thinking about how she could explain it to her little girl. She then smiled and said in a gentle voice: "The carpet is purple because it brings joy and happiness. Whoever sits on it will be in a better mood and will enjoy their time more." 
+
+The little girl was confused and asked her mom if she could explain more. Her mom looked at her and said: "No matter how bad the day is, if you play on the purple carpet it will help you feel better. That is why it is special". 
+
+The little girl smiled and hugged her mom. She then said: "Ok, I understand. I will always play on the purple carpet!" The mom also smiled and said: "Good, I'm proud of you."

+
+Timmy was so fascinated by the girl's song that he decided to repeat the words. He opened his mouth and repeated the song. The girl heard him and her eyes lit up. She came to the window and smiled.
+
+Timmy was a bit scared but when he saw the girl's lovely smile, it made him feel better. She smiled and said, "You must realize that you can't copy other people in life. You must find your own song, something that makes you special." 
+
+Her words made a lasting impression on Timmy. From that moment on, he sought out his own way, his own song. He tried many different things before finding the one that made him happy and unique.
+

+
+One day, Mr. Pony was getting his work done when he heard a loud roar outside the stable. A lion suddenly appeared in the doorway, and Mr. Pony was very scared. The lion saw this and said "Do not be afraid, I am just looking for a place to rest."
+
+Mr. Pony was relieved, and decided to invite the lion inside the stable. He helped the lion find a corner to lay down in, so it could get some rest. 
+
+The next morning, the lion woke up feeling refreshed and ready for the new day. He thanked Mr. Pony for his help and said "Now, let's go out and sort the hay and oats together!" 
+
+Surprised, Mr. Pony agreed and they kept sorting until the job was done. After they finished, the lion told Mr. Pony a lesson he had learned. 
+
+"Always help each other out, even if you feel afraid. When it comes to anything in life, teamwork is always more powerful than working alone." 
+
+Mr. Pony thought about the lion's words and smiled. He too was thankful for the kind gesture and was reminded to always show kindness whenever he can.

+One day, he saw a squirrel in his yard. He didn't know what to do. The squirrel just stared at him.
+
+He was scared and he didn't want to go near the squirrel. He tried to ignore it, but it kept looking at him. He got more and more angry.

+
+One day Daisy smiled at Charlie and said, "Isn't it wonderful how something so dull turned into something so beautiful?" Charlie smiled and agreed.

+Once there was a boy named Joe who was three years old. Joe really wanted a mustache so one day, he asked his mom if he could have one. But his mom said no, because it would look silly.

+
+The otter smiled and said, "Yes, I will definitely sail again tomorrow. It's just so much fun!"

+Lila liked to play with her tap. She could make water come out and fill her cups and pots. She could also make the water stop and start again. She thought it was fun and clever.
+
+One day, she saw a new tap in the garden. It was shiny and had a big handle. She wanted to try it. She ran to the tap and turned the handle. But nothing happened. She turned it harder and harder, but still no water.
+
+She felt sad and confused. She called her mom. "Mom, why does this tap not work?" she asked.
+
+Her mom came and smiled. She said, "This is not a tap for water, Lila. This is a tap for music. It is a special gift for you. You are gifted, Lila. You can make beautiful sounds with this tap."
+
+Lila did not understand. She looked at the tap and saw some holes and buttons. She touched them and heard a noise. She was surprised and curious. She pressed more buttons and heard more noises. She liked them. They sounded like birds and bells and drums.

+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the house. One day, they see a big box in the living room. It has a picture of a kitchen on it. Lily and Ben want to open the box and see what is inside.
+
+"Can we open it, Mom?" Lily asks.
+
+"Not yet, sweeties. It is a surprise for your birthday. You have to wait until tomorrow," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They want to see the kitchen now. They think it is a modern kitchen, like the one on TV. They want to cook and bake and pretend to be chefs.
+
+When Mom goes to the bathroom, Lily and Ben have an idea. They run to the box and try to lift it. It is very heavy. They push and pull and make a lot of noise.
+
+"Shh, Ben, Mom will hear us!" Lily whispers.
+
+"Too late, I already did," Mom says. She comes back to the living room and sees the twins trying to open the box. She is not happy.
+
+"Lily and Ben, what are you doing? You know you have to wait until tomorrow. You are being naughty," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben are sorry. They did not mean to be naughty. They just wanted to see the kitchen.
+
+"Please, Mom, can we just peek a little bit?" Ben begs.
+
+"No, you can't. You have to be patient and wait for your birthday. Now, go to your room and play with your toys. And no more running in the house," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They go to their room and play with their toys. But they still think about the kitchen. They wonder what it looks like. They hope it is a modern kitchen, like the one on TV. They can't wait until tomorrow.
+Tom and Lily liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They made roads and bridges with their blocks and raced their cars on them. They had fun and laughed a lot.
+
+One day, they found a new toy in their room. It was a big car with a remote control. It had a red button and a blue button. Tom and Lily wanted to try it. They put batteries in the car and the remote control. They turned on the car and the remote control.
+
+Tom held the remote control and pressed the red button. The car started to move. It went fast and made a loud noise. Lily clapped her hands and cheered. Tom pressed the blue button. The car turned left and right. It went over the blocks and under the bed. Tom and Lily chased the car and giggled.
+
+But then, the car went too fast and too far. It crashed into the wall and broke a picture. The glass fell down and cut the car. The car made a sad sound and stopped. Tom and Lily were scared. They saw a strip of metal sticking out of the car. It looked sharp and dangerous.
+
+Tom wanted to fix the car. He reached for the strip of metal. He was not careful. He touched the strip and cut his finger. He cried out in pain and dropped the remote control. The remote control hit the floor and broke. The car and the remote control were both ruined. Tom and Lily were sad and sorry. They wished they had not played with the new toy. They wished they had been more careful.
+Lily and Max were twins who loved to play with their toys. They had many cars, dolls, blocks and books, but their favorite thing was their tablet. They liked to watch cartoons, play games and learn new things on the screen. Sometimes they fought over who could use the tablet first, and they made a lot of noise.
+
+One day, their mom said, "Lily and Max, you have to share the tablet. You can take turns, or you can play together. But you can't fight over it, or I will take it away." Lily and Max nodded, but they did not listen. They still wanted to have the tablet all the time.
+
+The next day, their mom had to go to the store. She said, "Lily and Max, I will be back soon. You can play with the tablet, but be nice to each other. And don't touch anything else in the living room." Lily and Max said, "Okay, mom." But they did not listen. They started to fight over the tablet again, and they pulled and pushed each other. They did not see that they were getting closer to the big TV.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud crash. They looked up and saw that they had knocked over the TV. The screen was broken, and there were sparks and smoke. They were scared and sorry. They dropped the tablet and ran to their room. They hoped that their mom would not be angry.
+
+When their mom came back, she saw the mess in the living room. She was shocked and sad. She went to their room and asked, "Lily and Max, what happened? Did you break the TV?" Lily and Max cried and said, "Yes, mom. We are sorry. We were fighting over the tablet, and we did not pay attention. We did not mean to break the TV." Their mom hugged them and said, "I'm glad you are not hurt. But you have to learn to share and be careful. The TV was very expensive, and we can't buy a new one. You have to be grateful for what you have, and not be greedy. Do you understand?" Lily and Max nodded and said, "Yes, mom. We understand. We are sorry. We love you." Their mom said, "I love you too. But you have to do something to make up for what you did. You have to help me clean the living room, and you have to give up the tablet for a week. Do you agree?" Lily and Max said, "Yes, mom. We agree. We will help you, and we will play with our other toys. We will not fight over the tablet anymore." Their mom said, "That's good. Now let's go and clean up."
+
+Lily and Max learned their lesson. They realized that the tablet was not the most important thing in the world. They learned to share and be careful. They also learned to be grateful for what they had, and not to take things for granted. They still liked to watch cartoons, play games and learn new things on the screen, but they also liked to play with their cars, dolls, blocks and books, and to read stories with their mom. They zoomed their cars on the floor, they dressed up their dolls, they built towers with their blocks, and they listened to their mom's voice. They had fun and they were happy.

+
+The dog jumps up and down. It looks alert and happy. It wants to play.
+
+"Be careful, doggy!" the people on the pastel boat say.
+
+The dog does not listen. It jumps too high and falls into the water. Splash!
+
+"Oh no, doggy!" Sara and Ben say.
+
+They are worried. The dog swims to their boat. It climbs on board. It shakes off the water. It licks Sara and Ben.
+
+"Hi, doggy!" Sara and Ben say.
+
+They pet the dog. It is soft and warm. It is friendly.
+

+
+They have a fun day. They like to sail.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big bird with a long neck. It was a swan. Lily wanted to touch it.
+
+"Can I touch the swan, Tom?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, Lily, you can't. The swan is fierce. It can bite you with its beak," Tom said.
+
+"But it looks so pretty and white. I want to touch its feathers," Lily said.
+
+She ran towards the swan. The swan did not like that. It hissed and flapped its wings. It stretched its neck and opened its beak. It tried to bite Lily.
+
+Lily was scared. She screamed and ran back to Tom. Tom hugged her and said, "I told you, Lily, the swan is fierce. You have to be careful."
+
+Lily nodded. She was sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I won't touch the swan again. Can we play something else?"
+
+Tom smiled. He said, "Yes, Lily, we can. Let's go to the slide. The slide is fun."

+"Look, Tom, a book!" Mia says. "Can you read it?"
+
+Tom shakes his head. "No, I can't. The words are too hard. But we can look at the pictures. They are pretty."
+
+They open the book and see a picture of a cake. The cake has many colors and shapes. It looks yummy.
+
+"I wish we could taste the cake," Mia says. "It looks great."
+
+Tom has an idea. He picks up a leaf from the ground and pretends it is a piece of cake. He gives it to Mia.
+
+"Here, Mia, taste this. It is cake."
+
+Mia takes the leaf and puts it in her mouth. She makes a face. The leaf is bitter and dry.
+
+"Yuck, Tom, this is not cake. This is a leaf. It tastes bad."
+
+Tom laughs. He takes the leaf from Mia and throws it away.
+
+"Sorry, Mia, I was joking. It was a funny word. Do you know what a joke is?"
+
+Mia nods. She is not angry. She likes jokes.
+
+"A joke is when you say or do something funny to make someone laugh. Like when you tickle me or make a funny face."
+
+Tom smiles. He tickles Mia and makes a funny face. Mia laughs.
+
+They hug and say sorry. They are still friends. They close the book and put it back where they found it. They go to play and learn more words. They have fun.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find a big box in the park. They think it is a good place to hide and sleep.
+
+"Let's go inside the box," Anna says. "It is dark and cozy."
+
+"OK," Ben says. "But we have to be quiet. Maybe someone will look for us."
+
+They crawl inside the box and close the flap. They make a soft bed with their coats and hats. They cuddle and giggle. They are happy.
+
+But they do not know that the box is not a good place to sleep. The box is important. It has a sign that says "Danger. Do not touch." The box has wires and buttons. The box is a bomb.

+
+The box explodes. Anna and Ben explode. They are gone. They do not play together anymore. They do not sleep anymore. They are not happy anymore.
+Anna loved to play dress-up with her mom's clothes and perfume. She liked to pretend she was a princess or a fairy or a star. She would put on a shiny dress, a sparkly necklace, and a dab of perfume on her neck. She would look at herself in the mirror and smile. She believed she was brilliant.
+
+One day, she found a new bottle of perfume in her mom's drawer. It was pink and had a picture of a flower on it. Anna thought it looked pretty and smelled good. She wanted to try it on. She opened the bottle and sprayed some on her dress and her hair. She felt happy and special.
+
+But then, her mom came into the room and saw what Anna had done. She was not happy. She said, "Anna, what are you doing? That is not your perfume. That is my perfume. It is very expensive and rare. You should not touch it without asking me. You have wasted it and made a mess. You need to say sorry and clean up."
+
+Anna felt sad and sorry. She did not mean to make her mom angry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to be brilliant like you. I like your perfume. It smells like flowers and magic. I believed it would make me happy."
+
+Her mom sighed and hugged her. She said, "I love you, Anna. You are brilliant without any perfume. You are my sweet and smart girl. You make me happy every day. But you need to be careful with my things. They are not toys. They are special to me. Next time, you can ask me if you want to try something. And I will show you how to use it properly. OK?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "OK, mom. I'm sorry. I love you too. Can we still play dress-up together?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Of course we can. But first, let's clean up this perfume and wash your dress and hair. And then, we can find a perfume that is just for you. How about that?"
+
+Anna clapped and said, "Yes, please! That sounds fun! Thank you, mom!"
+
+They cleaned up the perfume and washed the dress and hair. Then, they went to the store and found a perfume that was just for Anna. It was blue and had a picture of a star on it. It smelled like candy and dreams. Anna loved it. She sprayed some on her wrist and her mom's wrist. They smelled each other and laughed. They believed they were brilliant.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toys. They have a big box that they pretend is a house. They put their dolls and cars and books inside the box. They like to make noises and talk to each other.
+
+"Knock knock!" Ben says, hitting the box with his hand. "Who is there?" Anna asks, opening a flap. "It is me, Ben. I have a supply of cookies for you!" Ben says, holding a plastic bag. "Wow, thank you, Ben! Come in, come in!" Anna says, smiling.
+
+They sit inside the box and share the cookies. They are very yummy. They talk about their favorite animals and colors and games. They are having fun.
+
+But then they hear a loud noise outside. It is their dog, Rex. Rex is big and furry and friendly. But Rex is also deaf. He cannot hear very well. He sees the box and thinks it is a toy. He runs towards the box and jumps on it.
+
+"Rex, no!" Anna and Ben shout, feeling the box shake and collapse. They crawl out of the box and see Rex wagging his tail. He thinks he is playing. He licks their faces and barks.
+
+"Bad dog, Rex! You broke our house!" Anna says, frowning. "And you ate our cookies!" Ben says, pointing at the empty bag. Rex looks confused. He does not understand. He just wants to play.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad and angry. They love Rex, but they also love their box. They do not know what to do. They look at each other and sigh. Then they hug Rex and pat his head. They know he did not mean to be bad. He is just a deaf dog.
+
+"Maybe we can find another box," Anna says, trying to be hopeful. "Or we can make a tent with a blanket," Ben says, trying to be creative. "Or we can play something else," they say together, trying to be happy.
+
+They decide to play something else. They take Rex with them and go to the backyard. They find a ball and a rope and a frisbee. They throw and catch and tug and run. They laugh and bark and giggle. They are having fun again.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big mattress that they put on the floor. They liked to jump on it, roll on it, and pretend it was a boat or a castle.
+
+One day, they heard a loud pop when they were jumping on the mattress. They looked and saw a hole in the corner. Air was coming out of the mattress and it was getting smaller and smaller.
+
+"Oh no, our mattress is broken!" Lily cried.
+
+"Don't worry, we can fix it!" Ben said. He ran to the kitchen and came back with some tape. He tried to stick the tape over the hole, but it did not work. The air kept coming out and the tape fell off.
+
+"This tape is not good. We need something else to fix it," Ben said.
+
+"Maybe we can ask Mommy for help," Lily suggested.
+
+They ran to the living room where Mommy was reading a book. They told her what happened to their mattress.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids, but your mattress is very rare. It was a gift from your grandma and I don't think we can find another one like it," Mommy said.
+
+"Can't you fix it, Mommy?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. It might be too hard to fix. Maybe we can try to sew it, but I'm not sure if it will hold," Mommy said.
+
+"Please, Mommy, please try to fix it. We love our mattress so much," Ben said.
+
+Mommy saw how sad they were and decided to give it a try. She took the mattress to the sewing room and found some thread and a needle. She carefully stitched the hole and tied a knot. She blew some air into the mattress and checked if it was leaking.
+
+"Look, kids, I think I fixed it!" Mommy said.
+
+Lily and Ben were so happy. They hugged Mommy and thanked her. They took the mattress back to their room and put it on the floor. They jumped on it, rolled on it, and pretended it was a boat or a castle. They were glad that their mattress was fixed and that Mommy was so clever.
+Ben and Lily were friends who liked to play by the river. One day, they saw a big raft on the water. It had many things on it, like food and toys and books. Ben and Lily wanted to see the raft, so they swam to it.
+
+"Wow, look at all this stuff!" Ben said. "Can we take some?"
+
+"No, that is not nice. That is stealing," Lily said. "Someone owns this raft. They will be sad if we take their things."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He grabbed a bag of chips and a ball and jumped off the raft. He swam back to the shore.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go!" he said.
+
+Lily was scared. She did not want to steal, but she did not want to be alone on the raft. She followed Ben to the shore.
+
+They ate the chips and played with the ball. They did not see the fat man who came out of the bushes. He was the owner of the raft. He was angry.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What are you doing with my stuff?" he shouted. "You stole from me! Give it back!"
+
+Ben and Lily were sorry. They dropped the chips and the ball and ran away. They did not look back.
+
+They learned a lesson. Stealing is bad. It makes people angry and sad. They decided to never steal again. They also decided to be more careful by the river. They did not know what else they might find.
+Lila and Sam are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the library with their moms. They see a big book with many pictures. The book is about nations.
+
+"Nations are places where people live," Lila's mom says. "They have different names, colors, and shapes."
+
+Lila and Sam look at the book. They see a nation with a lot of water and islands. They see a nation with mountains and forests. They see a nation with deserts and camels. They see a nation with snow and ice.
+
+"Wow, look at this nation!" Sam says. He points to the icy nation. "It is white and cold. How do people live there?"
+
+Lila's mom smiles. She says, "That nation is called Canada. Some people live there. They wear warm clothes and have special houses. They also have fun in the snow. They ski, skate, and make snowmen."
+
+Lila and Sam are curious. They want to know more about Canada. Lila's mom says, "I have a friend who lives in Canada. She sent me a picture of her and her family. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Lila and Sam nod. They say, "Yes, please!"
+
+Lila's mom takes out her phone. She shows them the picture. Lila and Sam see a woman, a man, and two kids. They are smiling and wearing hats, scarves, and gloves. They are standing in front of a big snowman.
+
+"Wow, they look happy!" Lila says.
+
+"They are," Lila's mom says. "They like their nation. And they like to share it with others. Maybe one day, we can visit them and see the icy nation for ourselves."
+
+Lila and Sam think that would be fun. They say, "Thank you for showing us the picture. We learned something new today. We like nations. They are interesting and different."
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big box. They open the box and see many toys. They are happy.
+
+"Look, Tom, a car!" Sue says. She picks up a red car. It has four wheels and a horn.
+
+"Wow, Sue, a doll!" Tom says. He picks up a yellow doll. It has long hair and a dress.
+
+They play with the toys for a long time. They make noises and stories. They have fun.
+
+But then, they see something else in the box. It is small and shiny. It is a tip. A tip is a coin that people give when they are happy with a service. It is rare to find a tip in a box of toys.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Sue asks. She holds the tip in her hand. It is round and silver.
+
+"I don't know," Tom says. He looks at the tip. It has a face and some words on it.
+
+"Maybe it is a magic tip," Sue says. She smiles. "Maybe it can make our wishes come true."
+
+"Really?" Tom says. He is curious. "What do you wish for, Sue?"
+
+Sue thinks for a moment. She looks at the toys, the park, and Tom. She is happy. She says, "I wish for nothing. I have everything I need."
+
+Tom nods. He feels the same. He says, "Me too, Sue. Me too."
+
+They put the tip back in the box. They hug each other. They are friends. They are happy.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They saw a big black beetle on a leaf. Tim wanted to touch it, but Lily was scared.
+
+"Look, a beetle!" Tim said. "Can I rub it?"
+
+"No, don't rub it!" Lily said. "It might bite you or fly away!"
+
+Tim did not listen. He reached out his hand and rubbed the beetle gently. The beetle did not bite or fly away. It moved its legs and antennae. It made a soft buzzing sound.
+
+"Wow, it likes me!" Tim said. "It is a friendly beetle!"
+
+Lily came closer and looked at the beetle. She saw that it had shiny spots on its back. She thought it was pretty. She wanted to rub it too.
+
+"Can I rub it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can rub it!" Tim said. "But be careful, don't hurt it!"
+
+Lily rubbed the beetle softly. The beetle buzzed again. It seemed happy. Tim and Lily smiled. They made a new friend. They named the beetle Buzz. They played with Buzz until it was time to go inside. They said goodbye to Buzz and put him back on the leaf. They hoped to see him again.
+Tom liked to play in the garden with his friend Mia. They had many toys and games, but their favorite thing was to look at the plants. They liked to see the colors, shapes and smells of the flowers, fruits and vegetables.
+
+One day, they saw a new plant in the garden. It was big and green, with shiny leaves and red berries. Tom and Mia were curious and wanted to touch it, but their mom said no.
+
+"That plant is not good for you," she said. "It can make you sick or hurt you. Stay away from it, please."
+
+Tom and Mia nodded, but they still wondered why the plant was not good. They decided to ask their dad, who knew a lot about plants.
+
+"Dad, what is that plant?" Tom asked, pointing to the big green one.
+
+"That plant is called a holly," dad said. "It is a pretty plant, but it has sharp edges and poisonous berries. It is not a plant for children or animals to play with."
+
+"Why do we have it in the garden, then?" Mia asked.
+
+"Well, some people like to use it for decoration, especially in winter. It can offer some color and cheer when other plants are gone. But we have to be careful and respect it, and not touch it or eat it," dad said.
+
+Tom and Mia understood. They thanked their dad and went back to their toys. They still liked to look at the holly, but they did not go near it. They were happy to play with the other plants, that were good and safe for them. They were not troubled by the holly anymore.
+Lily liked to watch TV. She watched TV every day after school. She watched cartoons and songs and stories. She did not like to share the TV with her brother Tom. Tom liked to watch different things. He liked to watch cars and animals and games. Lily thought Tom was selfish. She wanted to watch what she liked.
+
+One day, Lily and Tom came home from school. They ran to the TV. They both wanted to watch their shows. They fought for the remote. They pushed and pulled and yelled.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" their parent said. "You are being very selfish. You need to take turns and share the TV. Lily, you can watch for half an hour. Then Tom can watch for half an hour. OK?"
+
+Lily nodded. She took the remote and turned on her show. She smiled. She thought she had won. She did not care about Tom. She watched her show and did not look at him.
+
+Tom was sad. He did not like Lily's show. He wanted to watch his show. He waited for his turn. He looked at the clock. He counted the minutes. He hoped Lily would not forget.
+
+But Lily did forget. She watched her show and did not look at the clock. She watched another show and another show. She did not give Tom the remote. She did not remember her parent's words.
+
+Tom was angry. He did not think it was fair. He wanted to watch his show. He went to Lily and tried to take the remote. He said, "Lily, it's my turn. You watched for too long. Give me the remote."
+
+Lily did not listen. She held the remote tight. She said, "No, it's not your turn. I want to watch more. Go away, Tom. You are selfish."
+
+They fought for the remote again. They pushed and pulled and yelled. They did not see their parent come in. They did not hear their parent say, "That's enough, you two. You are being very selfish. You need to learn to share and be kind. No more TV for today. Go to your rooms and think about what you did."
+
+Lily and Tom stopped fighting. They looked at their parent. They looked at the TV. They felt sorry. They had missed their shows. They had made their parent angry. They had hurt each other. They wished they had shared and been kind. They said, "We're sorry, parent. We were selfish. We will share and be kind next time."
+
+Their parent nodded. They hugged their parent. They hugged each other. They went to their rooms and thought about what they did. They learned their lesson. They did not want to be selfish again.
+Tom and Lily were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Tom was the hider. Tom ran behind a big tree and waited for Lily to find him. He was very quiet and still.
+
+Lily looked around the park and tried to guess where Tom was hiding. She saw a bush, a bench, a slide, and a pond. She did not see Tom. She walked towards the pond and saw something shiny. It was a toy car. Lily liked toy cars. She wanted to play with it.
+
+Tom saw Lily going to the pond. He knew it was a trap. He had put the toy car there to trick Lily. He wanted to scare her and make her laugh. He peeked from behind the tree and watched Lily.
+
+Lily reached the pond and saw the toy car. She smiled and picked it up. She did not see Tom. She did not see the elderly man who was sitting on the bench. The elderly man was feeding the ducks. He saw Lily and Tom. He smiled and winked at Tom.
+
+Tom waited for the right moment. He jumped out from behind the tree and shouted, "Boo!" Lily was surprised and dropped the toy car. She screamed and then laughed. Tom laughed too. He ran to Lily and hugged her. "I got you!" he said.
+
+Lily hugged him back. "You did!" she said. "But you are a cheater. You used a trap."
+
+Tom shook his head. "No, I am not. I am a clever hider. And you are a silly seeker."
+
+The elderly man chuckled. He walked to them and gave them the toy car. "You are both very funny," he said. "But be careful with the pond. It is deep and wet."
+
+Tom and Lily thanked him and took the toy car. They decided to play with it together. They were happy and friendly. They liked the park and the elderly man and the ducks. They liked each other. They liked hide and seek.
+Ben likes to help his mom with the mail. Every day, he runs to the mailbox and brings the letters and papers to his mom. Mom says he is a good helper and gives him a hug.
+
+One day, Ben sees a big box in the mailbox. He tries to pull it out, but it is too heavy. He pushes and pulls, but the box does not move. Ben feels sad and hurt. He thinks he is a bad helper.
+
+Mom sees Ben and comes to help him. She says, "Don't be sad, Ben. You are a good helper. Sometimes, things are too heavy for one person. We can work together and get the box out." She encourages Ben to try again with her. They push and pull, and the box comes out.
+
+Ben is happy and proud. He says, "We did it, Mom! We are a good team!" Mom says, "Yes, we are, Ben. You are a very strong and brave helper. I wonder what is in the box. Maybe it is a surprise for you." They open the box and find a new toy for Ben. Ben is very excited and thanks Mom. Mom says, "You're welcome, Ben. I love you." They hug and play with the new toy.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big bus. The bus has many colors and pictures. Lily and Tom want to see the bus.
+
+"Can we go to the bus?" Lily asks Tom.
+
+"OK, let's go. But we have to be careful. The bus is on the road. The road has cars and trucks. They are fast and loud." Tom says.
+
+Lily and Tom hold hands and cross the road. They look at the bus. The bus has a door and windows. The bus has wheels and a horn. The bus has a sign that says "Travel".
+
+"What is travel?" Lily asks Tom.
+
+"Travel is when you go to different places. You can see new things and meet new people. Travel is fun." Tom says.
+
+"Can we travel on the bus?" Lily asks Tom.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we can ask the driver. He is inside the bus. He can drive the bus." Tom says.
+
+Lily and Tom knock on the door of the bus. The driver opens the door. He is a man with a hat and a smile. He sees Lily and Tom.
+
+"Hello, little ones. What do you want?" The driver asks.
+
+"We want to travel on the bus. Can we?" Lily asks.
+
+The driver laughs. He says "Well, this is not a regular bus. This is a shelter bus. I help people who need a place to stay. They can sleep and eat on the bus. They can travel with me to find a better home."
+
+"What is a shelter?" Tom asks.
+
+"A shelter is a place where you can be safe and warm. A shelter is like a house, but not your own. A shelter is for people who don't have a house." The driver says.
+
+Lily and Tom feel sad. They have a house. They have a family. They have a bed and toys. They are lucky.
+
+"Can we see the people on the bus?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, you can. But you have to be nice and quiet. They are tired and scared. They need some love and hope." The driver says.
+
+He takes Lily and Tom inside the bus. The bus has seats and tables. The bus has blankets and pillows. The bus has books and games. The bus has people. The people are young and old. The people are boys and girls. The people are different colors and shapes. The people are friendly and grateful.
+
+Lily and Tom say hello to the people. They share their books and games. They listen to their stories. They give them hugs and smiles. They make them happy.
+
+The driver says "You are very kind and brave. You are welcome to travel with me anytime. You are my pretty guests."
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play soccer in the park. They have a ball and two goals. They want to do a score.
+
+"Let's play, Tim!" Sam says. "I will be red and you will be blue."
+
+"OK, Sam," Tim says. "But we have to be obedient. Mom said we have to go home when the sun goes down."
+
+They start to play. They run and kick the ball. They have fun. They do not see the sun.
+
+Tim does a score. He is happy. He jumps and shouts. "I did a score, Sam! I did a score!"
+
+Sam is not happy. He is angry. He wants to do a score too. He kicks the ball hard. But he misses the goal. He kicks the ball again. But he hits Tim.
+
+"Ow!" Tim says. "That hurts, Sam! Why did you do that?"
+
+Sam does not say sorry. He says, "You are a bad friend, Tim! You do not let me do a score! You are a cheater!"
+
+Tim is sad. He says, "I am not a bad friend, Sam. I am not a cheater. I just did a score. It is a game. We have to share."
+
+Sam does not listen. He kicks the ball again. But he kicks it too far. He kicks it out of the park. He kicks it into the street.
+
+"Sam, no!" Tim says. "The ball is gone! The cars are there! It is dangerous!"
+
+But Sam does not hear. He runs after the ball. He does not look. He does not stop.
+
+A car comes. It is fast. It does not see Sam. It hits Sam.
+
+Tim screams. He runs to Sam. He sees blood. He sees Sam is not moving. He cries.
+
+"Sam, Sam, wake up!" Tim says. "Please, Sam, wake up!"
+
+But Sam does not wake up. Sam is gone.
+
+The sun goes down. The park is dark. Tim is alone. He is scared. He is sorry.
+
+He wishes he and Sam were obedient. He wishes they went home. He wishes they did not play soccer. He wishes they were still friends.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to make a cake for Mom. They had a big bowl, some flour, some eggs, some milk and some sugar. They also had a spoon to stir.
+
+"Stir, stir, stir!" Anna said, as she moved the spoon in the bowl. "We need to make the cake smooth and yummy!"
+
+"Can I stir too?" Ben asked, reaching for the spoon.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Anna said, giving him the spoon. "Don't spill the cake!"
+
+Ben stirred the cake, but he stirred too fast. Some of the cake flew out of the bowl and landed on the floor. Anna and Ben gasped.
+
+"Oh no!" Anna said. "We made a mess!"
+
+"Sorry, Anna!" Ben said. "I didn't mean to!"
+
+They heard a knock on the door. It was Dad. He had a big smile and a fat envelope in his hand.
+
+"Hi, kids!" Dad said. "What are you doing?"
+
+"We are making a cake for Mom!" Anna said.
+
+"But we made a mess!" Ben said.
+
+Dad looked at the floor and laughed. He picked up the envelope and showed it to Anna and Ben.
+
+"I have a message for Mom too!" Dad said. "It's from her boss. She got a promotion! She will be very happy!"
+
+"Wow!" Anna and Ben said. "That's great!"
+
+"Can we help you clean the mess?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, thank you!" Dad said. "But first, let's finish the cake. I think it will still be delicious!"
+
+They all hugged and went back to the kitchen. They stirred the cake, poured it into a pan, and put it in the oven. They cleaned the floor and waited for the cake to bake. They were excited to surprise Mom with the cake and the message. They loved Mom very much.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. But they did not like to share or to tidy up. They always fought over who got the best toys and who had to clean up the mess.
+
+One day, their mom gave them a banana each for a snack. Lily and Tom peeled their bananas and took a bite. But then they saw that their bananas were different. Lily's banana was big and yellow, but Tom's banana was small and brown.
+
+"Hey, you have a better banana than me!" Tom said. He tried to grab Lily's banana from her hand.
+
+"No, it's mine! Go away!" Lily said. She pushed Tom away with her other hand.
+
+They started to fight over the banana. They pulled and tugged and shouted and kicked. They did not see that their mom was watching them from the kitchen.
+
+Their mom was very angry. She came over and took both bananas away from them. She threw them in the bin.
+
+"You are very naughty and selfish!" she said. "You do not deserve any bananas or any toys. Go to your room and think about what you did!"
+
+Lily and Tom cried and ran to their room. They had no bananas and no toys to play with. They were very sad and sorry.
+
+The moral of the story is: You should share and be grateful for what you have, or you might lose it all. Fighting is not nice and it makes everyone unhappy.
+Mia loves to go for walks with her dad. They step on the grass and look at the flowers. Mia likes the red flowers best. They are called poppies. They are soft and pretty.
+
+One day, Mia sees a poppy that is bigger than the others. She runs to it and picks it up. She wants to show it to her dad. But when she holds it, the poppy breaks. The petals fall to the ground. Mia feels sad. She likes the poppy. She did not want to hurt it.
+
+Her dad sees her and hugs her. He tells her it is okay. He says the poppy gave her a gift. He shows her the seeds inside the poppy. He says they can plant them and grow more poppies. He says the poppy is grateful for Mia's love.
+
+Mia smiles and wipes her tears. She gives the seeds to her dad. They find a spot in the garden and dig a hole. They put the seeds in the hole and cover them with dirt. They water them and wait.
+
+Soon, they see green shoots coming out of the ground. They grow bigger and bigger. They make buds and then flowers. Mia is happy. She has many poppies now. She thanks the poppy that broke. She says she loves it. She says she loves her dad. Her dad says he loves her too. They step on the grass and look at the flowers. They are happy.
+Lily and Max were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Lily had a big bowl and a wooden spoon. Max had a small cup and a teaspoon. They were mixing flour and water and sugar and salt.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a cake!" Max said, holding up his cup. He had put some sprinkles on top.
+
+"That's not a cake, Max. That's a mess. A cake is big and round and soft. You need a bigger cup and more flour and more sugar. And you need to bake it in the oven." Lily said, ignoring Max's cup. She was busy stirring her bowl.
+
+"But I like my cake. It's sweet and crunchy. And I don't need the oven. It's too hot. Can I have some of your bowl?" Max asked, moving closer to Lily.
+
+"No, Max. This is my bowl. You have your own cup. Go away. You're bothering me." Lily said, pushing Max away. She didn't want to share her bowl.
+
+Max felt sad and angry. He wanted to play with Lily, but she was mean to him. He looked around the kitchen and saw a tray of ice cubes. He had an idea. He took a few ice cubes and put them in his cup. Then he sneaked behind Lily and poured the icy water over her head.
+
+"Max! What did you do? That's cold! That's wet! That's not funny!" Lily screamed, dropping her bowl. She was shivering and dripping.
+
+"Ha ha ha! That's what you get for ignoring me and my cake. Now you're a mess. And you need the oven to warm up." Max laughed, running away.
+
+Lily was very mad. She picked up her wooden spoon and chased after Max. They ran around the kitchen, shouting and throwing things. They made a big noise and a big mess.
+
+Their mom heard the commotion and came to see what was going on. She saw Lily and Max covered in flour and water and ice and sprinkles. She saw the bowl and the cup and the spoon and the teaspoon on the floor. She saw the tray of ice cubes on the counter. She was not happy.
+
+"Lily! Max! What are you doing? This is not how you play in the kitchen. This is how you make a disaster. You need to stop right now and clean up this mess. And you need to say sorry to each other. And you need to learn to share and be nice. And you need to go to your rooms and think about what you did." Mom said, in a stern voice.
+
+Lily and Max stopped running and looked at their mom. They looked at each other. They looked at the mess. They felt ashamed and sorry. They nodded and said, "Yes, mom. We're sorry, mom. We're sorry, Lily. We're sorry, Max."
+
+They helped mom clean up the kitchen. They put the bowl and the cup and the spoon and the teaspoon in the sink. They wiped the flour and the water and the ice and the sprinkles from the floor and the counter. They dried their hair and their clothes. They hugged and said, "I love you, Lily. I love you, Max."
+
+They went to their rooms and thought about what they did. They decided to play nicer next time. They decided to make a real cake together. They decided to share their bowl and their cup and their spoon and their teaspoon. They decided to ignore the oven. It was too hot.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with their toys. Sam has a toy horse with a horn. Ben has a toy car with a siren. They share their toys sometimes, but not always.
+
+One day, Sam wants to play with Ben's car. He asks Ben, "Can I have your car, please?" Ben says, "No, it is mine. You can play with your horse." Sam is sad and angry. He thinks Ben is mean. He wants to make Ben sad and angry too.
+
+He waits until Ben is not looking. Then he takes his horse and pokes Ben with the horn. Ben feels a sharp pain in his arm. He cries out, "Ow, ow, ow! Sam, why did you do that?" He looks at his arm and sees blood. He is scared and hurt.
+
+Sam feels bad. He did not want to make Ben bleed. He says, "I'm sorry, Ben. I just wanted your car. I did not mean to hurt you." But Ben does not listen. He is too upset. He runs to Mom and shows her his arm. Mom is shocked and angry. She says, "Sam, what did you do? You hurt your brother. That is not nice. You have to say sorry and go to your room."
+
+Sam says sorry, but Ben does not forgive him. Sam goes to his room and cries. He wishes he did not poke Ben with the horn. He wishes he was normal and nice like Ben. He wishes he could play with Ben and his car. But he can't. He is alone and sad. He hugs his horse and says, "I'm sorry, horse. You are my only friend." The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and look for bugs. But they did not like the big dog that lived next door. The dog was harsh. He barked loud and ran fast. He scared Lily and Ben.
+
+One day, the dog found a hole in the fence. He escaped from his yard and came into the garden. He saw Lily and Ben and ran towards them. Lily and Ben were very afraid. They dropped their shovels and ran to the house.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shouted. "The dog is coming!"
+
+Mom heard them and opened the door. She saw the dog and yelled at him. "Go away! Go back to your yard!"
+
+The dog stopped and looked at Mom. He saw that she was angry. He also saw that she had a hose in her hand. He did not like water. He turned around and ran back to the fence. He squeezed through the hole and went to his yard.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to Mom and hugged her. They were safe. Mom hugged them back and smiled. She was proud of them.
+
+"Are you okay?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, Mom. We are okay," Lily said.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You saved us," Ben said.
+
+Mom kissed them on their noses. "You're welcome, my brave kids. Now, let's go inside and have some cookies."
+Anna liked to play in the garden. She saw many flowers and bugs. She saw a butterfly. It was yellow and black. It was pretty. Anna wanted to catch it.
+
+She ran after the butterfly. She tried to grab it with her hands. But the butterfly was fast. It flew away. Anna was sad. She saw a pair of scissors on the table. She had an idea.
+
+She took the scissors. She ran after the butterfly again. She tried to cut its wings. But the scissors were sharp. They hurt her fingers. She cried.
+
+"Anna, what are you doing?" Mommy came out. She saw the scissors and the blood. She was angry and scared. She took the scissors from Anna. She hugged her and took her inside.
+
+"Anna, you are naughty. You should not play with scissors. They are dangerous. And you should not hurt the butterfly. It is a living thing. It has feelings. How would you like it if someone cut your hair?" Mommy said.
+
+Anna was sorry. She said sorry to Mommy and to the butterfly. She learned her lesson. She did not play with scissors again. She did not chase the butterfly again. She watched it from afar. She smiled.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. One day, they see a big bottle of milk on the table. They want to drink some milk.
+
+"Let's get the milk," Ben says.
+
+"OK," Lily says.
+
+They climb on the chairs and reach for the bottle. But the bottle is too heavy for them. They pull and pull, but the bottle does not move.
+
+"Help me, Lily," Ben says.
+
+"I am helping, Ben," Lily says.
+
+They pull harder and harder, but the bottle still does not move. Then, the bottle falls off the table and breaks on the floor. The milk spills everywhere. It makes a big mess.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben and Lily say.
+
+They hear their mom coming. She is angry. She sees the broken bottle and the spilled milk. She sees Ben and Lily on the chairs.
+
+"What did you do?" Mom says. She is loud.
+
+"We wanted some milk," Ben says.
+
+"We tried to get the bottle," Lily says.
+
+"You should not touch the bottle," Mom says. "It is not for you. It is for the baby. You could have hurt yourselves. And you made a big mess. You are naughty."
+
+Ben and Lily feel bad. They are sorry.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," Ben and Lily say.
+
+Mom sighs. She is not loud anymore. She is calm.
+
+"I know you are sorry," Mom says. "But you have to be careful. And you have to listen to me. Come on, let's clean up the mess. And then I will give you some milk in your cups."
+
+Ben and Lily nod. They get off the chairs and help Mom clean up the mess. They put the broken pieces in the trash. They wipe the floor with a cloth. They say sorry again.
+
+Mom hugs them. She is not angry anymore. She is kind.
+
+"It's OK," Mom says. "I love you. And I have some milk for you. Come on, let's go to the kitchen."
+
+Ben and Lily smile. They follow Mom to the kitchen. They drink some milk in their cups. They are happy.
+Ben liked to step on the leaves in the park. They made a loud sound when he stepped on them. He wore his red vest that his mom gave him. It was warm and soft. He felt normal and happy.
+
+One day, he saw a big pile of leaves near a tree. He ran to the pile and jumped on it. He wanted to hear the loud sound. But he did not hear the loud sound. He heard a squeak. He felt something move under the leaves. He was scared.
+
+He jumped off the pile and looked at it. He saw a small nose and two black eyes. It was a mouse. The mouse was scared too. It ran away from the pile and into the tree. Ben felt sorry for the mouse. He did not want to hurt it.
+
+He went to his mom and told her what happened. She hugged him and said it was okay. She said the mouse was probably looking for a warm place to sleep. She said he should be careful when he stepped on the leaves. He might find other animals there.
+
+Ben nodded and said he was sorry. He said he would be more careful. He still liked to step on the leaves, but he also liked to look at the animals. He learned something new that day. He felt normal and happy.
+Sara woke up in the morning and saw her new shoes by the bed. She was very happy and wanted to wear them to school. She put them on and ran to the kitchen to show her mom.
+
+"Look, Mom, look at my shoes! They are so pretty and shiny!" Sara said.
+
+Mom smiled and gave Sara a hug. "They are very nice, Sara. But you have to be careful with them. They are not for playing in the mud or jumping in puddles. They are for walking nicely and keeping clean."
+
+Sara nodded and promised to be careful. She ate her breakfast and got ready for school. She said goodbye to Mom and went outside. She saw her friend Ben waiting for her at the corner. He had a big smile on his face.
+
+"Hi, Sara, do you want to play with me?" Ben asked.
+
+Sara liked Ben and wanted to play with him. But she also wanted to show him her shoes. She walked over to him and lifted her foot.
+
+"Look, Ben, look at my shoes! They are so pretty and shiny!" Sara said.
+
+Ben looked at her shoes and frowned. He did not like them. He thought they were too girly and boring. He wanted to play something fun and exciting.
+
+"Your shoes are silly, Sara. They are not for playing. They are for sitting and looking. I don't want to play with you. I want to play with Tom and Lily. They have cool shoes. They have shoes for running and jumping and splashing. Come on, let's go!" Ben said.
+
+He ran away and left Sara alone. Sara felt sad and angry. She wanted to play with Ben and show him that her shoes were not silly. She wanted to prove that she could run and jump and splash too. She forgot what Mom said and followed Ben. She ran after him and tried to catch up. She saw him and his friends playing in a big puddle. They were laughing and having fun. Sara wanted to join them. She stepped into the puddle and felt the water splash on her legs. She felt a shock and looked down. Her shoes were not pretty and shiny anymore. They were wet and dirty and ruined. She felt a tear roll down her cheek. She felt ashamed. She wished she had listened to Mom. She wished she had not stepped into the puddle. She wished she had not followed Ben. She wished she had not worn her new shoes. She wished she could go back to bed and start the morning over. But she could not. She had to face Mom and tell her what she had done. She knew Mom would be very angry and sad. She knew she would be in big trouble. She knew she had made a big mistake. She knew she had a bad day.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to run on the grass, swing on the swings, and slide on the slide. But their favorite thing was to watch the fountain. The fountain was big and shiny, and it made water go up and down in the air. Sometimes the water made rainbows, and sometimes it made shapes like flowers or stars.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily went to the park with their mom. They ran to the fountain and saw a man standing next to it. He had a sign that said "I own this fountain". Tom and Lily were confused. How could he own the fountain? The fountain was for everyone to enjoy. They asked their mom what the sign meant.
+
+Their mom explained that the man was pretending to own the fountain. He was doing it for fun, or maybe for money. He did not really own the fountain, and he could not stop anyone from watching it or playing with it. She said that the fountain belonged to the park, and the park belonged to the city, and the city belonged to the people.
+
+Tom and Lily felt better. They did not mind the man and his sign. They knew he was just playing a game. They went closer to the fountain and felt the water on their faces. It was mild and refreshing. They smiled and laughed and thanked the fountain for being so beautiful and fun. They did not need to own the fountain to love it. They just needed to share it.
+Tom was a soldier. He had a big gun and a green hat. He went to a far place to fight bad people. He was brave and strong, but sometimes he was scared and sad.
+
+One day, he saw a small dog in the street. The dog was hurt and hungry. It had no home and no friend. Tom felt sorry for the dog. He was careful not to scare it. He gave it some food and water. He petted it and talked to it. The dog wagged its tail and licked his hand. Tom smiled and felt happy.
+
+Tom decided to keep the dog. He named it Buddy. He made a bed for it in his tent. He took it with him when he went to work. Buddy helped Tom feel safe and loved. Buddy was a good friend.
+
+Sometimes, Tom and Buddy heard loud noises and saw bright flashes. They were bombs and guns. They made Tom and Buddy afraid. They hid under a blanket and hugged each other. They comforted each other until the noises stopped. They hoped the fight would end soon.
+
+Tom and Buddy wanted to go home. They missed their family and friends. They dreamed of a peaceful place with grass and trees and flowers. They prayed for a better world. They knew they were not alone. They had each other. They were a soldier and a dog, but they were also a family.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to ask questions. She wanted to know everything about the world. One day, she saw a man with a metal leg walking in the park. She ran to him and said, "Hello, mister. Why do you have a metal leg?"
+
+The man smiled and said, "Hello, little girl. I have a metal leg because I lost my real leg a long time ago. It was in a big war, where people fought and hurt each other. Do you know what a war is?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not know what a war was. She only knew about playing and sharing and loving. She said, "No, mister. I don't know what a war is. It sounds bad. Why did you fight and hurt people?"
+
+The man sighed and said, "Well, little girl, sometimes people have different ideas and beliefs, and they don't agree or listen to each other. They think their way is the best and the only way, and they want to make others follow them. They don't respect or understand each other. That's how wars start. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She said, "No, mister. I don't understand. Why can't people have different ideas and beliefs, and still be friends and help each other? Why can't they talk and explain and learn from each other? Why can't they be kind and gentle and peaceful?"
+
+The man looked at Lily with admiration and said, "You are a very wise little girl, Lily. You have a big heart and a bright mind. You are right. People should do all those things you said. They should be kind and gentle and peaceful. They should talk and explain and learn from each other. They should be friends and help each other. That's how the world would be a better place. Do you agree?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mister. I agree. I wish everyone was like you and me. Can I give you a hug?"
+
+The man said, "Of course, Lily. You can give me a hug. You made my day. Thank you for being so curious and caring. You are a wonderful little girl."
+
+Lily hugged the man and said, "Thank you, mister. You are a wonderful man. I hope you have a happy day. Goodbye!"
+
+The man waved and said, "Goodbye, Lily. I hope you have a happy day too. Keep asking questions and spreading love. You are a gift to the world."
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to watch movies together. One day, they go to the movie theater with Anna's mom. They see a big poster of a movie. The movie has a green monster with big teeth and horns. Anna thinks the monster is ugly. She does not want to watch the movie.
+
+"Mom, I don't like that movie. The monster is ugly. It will scare me," Anna says.
+
+Ben looks at the poster. He thinks the monster is funny. He wants to watch the movie.
+
+"Anna, the monster is not ugly. It is funny. It will make us laugh," Ben says.
+
+Anna and Ben look at each other. They do not agree. Anna's mom smiles. She has an idea.
+
+"Why don't we watch another movie? There is a movie about a dog and a cat. They are friends. They go on an adventure. It looks fun," Anna's mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They like dogs and cats. They are friends too. They follow Anna's mom to the ticket booth. They buy tickets for the movie. They go inside the theater. They find seats. They wait for the movie to start.
+
+Anna and Ben see the green monster on the screen. It is a preview for the movie. The monster roars and chases people. Anna covers her eyes. Ben laughs. He waves at the monster.
+
+"Bye bye, ugly monster. See you next time," Ben says.
+
+Anna peeks at the screen. She sees Ben waving. She giggles. She waves too.
+
+"Bye bye, funny monster. Have a nice day," Anna says.
+
+Anna and Ben smile at each other. They are friends. They are ready to watch the movie. They hope the movie is good. They hope the dog and the cat are happy. They hope they have fun.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big tree with thick branches. They wanted to climb the tree and see what was up there.
+
+They climbed the tree very carefully. They held on to the branches and moved up. They saw many birds and squirrels and bugs. They were happy and curious. They wanted to see more.
+
+They climbed higher and higher. They reached the top of the tree. They looked around and saw the sky and the clouds and the other trees. They also saw something else. Something big and yellow and black. Something with sharp teeth and claws. A leopard!
+
+The leopard was sleeping on a branch. It did not see Lily and Tom. But Lily and Tom saw the leopard. They were very scared. They wanted to go down. They did not want to wake up the leopard.
+
+They climbed down very quietly. They did not make any noise. They did not look at the leopard. They hoped the leopard would not see them. They reached the bottom of the tree. They ran away from the tree. They ran to their mom and dad. They told them what they saw. They were safe and glad. They did not want to climb that tree again.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys. But today they are not happy. They both want the same toy car. They start to fight.
+
