He knew he wasn't allowed the whole cake, but at least he had some. He thanked his Mum and enjoyed his snack in the sunshine. +John was a little boy who loved to travel.

We should go, before the trouble gets too big." + +So Timothy and his mom packed up their things and went home. + +The end. +"Mommy, what is a hotel?" asked Jack, the 3 year old. + +His mom replied, "It is a very big and special house where people stay when they travel." + +"Oh," said Jack, as he tried to imagine what a big house would look like. + +"Can I stay there?" he asked. + +"Maybe when you are older," said his mom. + +Jack thought for a moment and then asked, "Why did Uncle Phil marry in a hotel?" + +His mom smiled.

The busy duck was surprised and asked, "What happened to you?" + +The shrinking duck replied, "I ate too much and my mouth felt yucky." + +The busy duck said sadly, "You should learn to be more careful of how much you eat. Then your mouth wouldn't feel so yucky. You should also try to do less, so you won't be so busy like me!" + +The shrinking duck thought about what the busy duck said and nodded. From then on they both made small changes in their lives. The shrinking duck only ate small portions, and the busy duck learned to take a break every once in a while. + +The moral of the story is that it is important to not overindulge and to take a break once in a while to avoid being too busy. +Once upon a time there was a mom who was cooking food.

They wanted to eat the pear now. They did not like to wait. + +"Can we pick it and make it ripe faster?" Ben asked. + +"No, you can't. If you pick it too soon, it will not ripen at all.

They hoped that the pear would ripen soon. They were curious to taste it. They tried to be patient. +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside.

I can see the flowers, the birds, and the clouds. Can you see them?" + +"Yes, Ben, I can see them too. They are very pretty," Lily said, smiling. "But I'm also very tired.

Let's get our blankets and pillows and lie down on the floor," Ben said, yawning. + +They got their blankets and pillows and made a soft bed on the floor. They snuggled up together and closed their eyes. They fell asleep quickly, dreaming of the view and their play. + +But they didn't know that their mom was looking for them. She had called them for lunch, but they didn't hear her. She checked the yard, but she didn't see them. She wondered where they were. + +She walked around the yard, looking for clues. She saw the swing, the slide, and the sandbox, but they were empty. She saw some cookie crumbs on the grass, but they didn't lead anywhere.

She wanted to be like her. + +"Mommy, can I have the magic pill?" Lily asked. + +Mommy smiled. She took out the pill and gave it to Lily. Lily looked at the pill. It was not magic. It was the same big and bitter pill. + +"Trust me, Lily. This is the magic pill. It will make you feel better," Mommy said. + +Lily trusted Mommy. She put the pill in her mouth and swallowed it.

He let go of the onion and held his hand. A bee had stung him. It hurt a lot. + +"Are you okay?" Sam asked. He felt sorry for his brother. + +"No, it hurts," Tom said. He started to cry. + +Mom heard them and came to the garden. She saw the onion, the bee, and Tom's hand. She knew what had happened. + +She took Tom inside and put some ice on his hand. She hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Tom. You should have asked me before you picked the onion. Onions have a strong smell that bees like. That's why the bee stung you." + +She looked at Sam and said, "And you, Sam, you should have listened to your brother. He had a good idea to ask me. You should not do things without knowing the consequences. You could have been hurt too." + +Sam nodded. He felt bad for not listening to Tom. He said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I'm sorry, Mom.

Grandma made a wish and blew out the candles. + +"Can we have some cake?" asked Lily. + +"Of course, you can," said Grandma. "But first, let me give you a big hug and a sweet kiss. You are the best grandchildren ever." +Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play with a ball in the park. They kick the ball to each other and laugh. + +One day, a big dog comes to the park. The dog is friendly. He wants to play with the ball too. He runs after the ball and catches it in his mouth. + +"Hey, that's our ball!" Sam says. He tries to get the ball from the dog, but the dog is too fast. He runs away with the ball. + +"Come back, dog!" Mia says. She runs after the dog too, but she can't catch him. The dog is too happy with the ball. + +Sam and Mia are sad. They don't have a ball to play with anymore. They sit on a tip and look at the dog. + +The dog sees Sam and Mia. He sees that they are sad. He feels sorry for them. He likes Sam and Mia. They are friendly. + +The dog decides to share the ball with Sam and Mia. He runs back to them and drops the ball on the ground. He wags his tail and barks. + +"Thank you, dog!" Sam says. He picks up the ball and throws it to Mia. + +"Thank you, dog!" Mia says. She kicks the ball back to Sam. + +The dog joins them and plays with the ball too. He is happy. Sam and Mia are happy. They are all friends. They have fun in the park. +Lily and Sam liked to play pirate in the garden. They had a big box that was their ship, and a flag with a skull and bones. They wore hats and eye patches and pretended to have swords. + +One day, they saw a big puddle in the grass. It had rained a lot the night before. Lily said, "Look, Sam, a deep sea! Let's sail our ship there and find treasure!" + +Sam nodded and they pushed their box to the puddle. They climbed inside and waved their swords. "Ahoy, matey!" Sam said. "We are the bravest pirates in the world!" + +But when they reached the puddle, they saw a problem. The box was too big to fit in the puddle. It got stuck on the edge and did not move. Lily and Sam tried to push and pull, but it was no use. + +"Oh no!" Lily said. "How will we manage to sail our ship now?" + +Sam thought for a moment. Then he had an idea. He jumped out of the box and ran to the shed. He came back with a big bucket. He filled it with water from the tap and poured it into the puddle. He did this again and again, until the puddle was bigger and deeper. + +"Look, Lily!" he said. "I made the sea bigger! Now we can sail our ship!" + +Lily smiled and hugged Sam. "You are a clever pirate, Sam!" she said. "Thank you for helping me!" + +They climbed back into the box and sailed their ship in the puddle. They had a lot of fun and found some shiny stones and shells that they pretended were treasure. They were very happy pirates. +One day, a humble ant was working hard in the field. He was carrying a big seed to his home. He saw a lazy grasshopper sitting on a leaf. The grasshopper said, "Why are you working so hard, ant? Come and play with me. It is a sunny day." + +The ant said, "No, thank you. I have to work. Winter is coming soon. I need to store food for my family. You should do the same, grasshopper. Or you will be hungry and cold." + +The grasshopper laughed. He said, "I don't worry about winter. I have plenty of food here. Look at these juicy berries. They are so sweet and red. Here, have one." He split a berry in half and gave it to the ant. + +The ant was tempted. The berry looked delicious. But he remembered his duty. He said, "No, thank you. I have my own food. You can keep your berry. But be careful, grasshopper. Winter is not far away. You will regret your laziness." + +The ant left the grasshopper and continued his work. The grasshopper shrugged and ate the berry. He said, "Silly ant. He doesn't know how to enjoy life. I have plenty of time to play and eat. Winter is a long way off." + +But winter came sooner than he expected. The field was covered with snow. The berries were gone. The grasshopper was hungry and cold. He went to the ant's home and knocked on the door. He said, "Please, ant, help me. I have no food and no shelter. I am starving and freezing. Can you share some of your food with me?" + +The ant opened the door and saw the grasshopper. He said, "I am sorry, grasshopper. I have only enough food for my family. You should have worked when I told you to. You wasted your time playing and eating. Now you have to face the consequences. Go away and don't bother me again." + +The ant closed the door and left the grasshopper outside. The grasshopper realized his mistake. He wished he had listened to the ant. He wished he had been humble and hardworking. But it was too late. He died of hunger and cold. + +The moral of the story is: Work hard and prepare for the future. Don't be lazy and careless. Or you will suffer the consequences. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They like to slide, swing, and run. One day, they see a big sign that says "Exit". They do not know what it means. + +"Let's go there," Ben says. "Maybe it is a fun place." + +"OK," Lily says. "But be careful. It might be different." + +They walk to the sign. They see a gate. The gate is open. They go through the gate. They see a lot of cars and people. They hear a lot of noise. They feel scared. + +"This is not fun," Lily says. "This is scary. Let's go back." + +But they do not see the gate. They do not see the sign. They do not see the park. They are lost. + +They start to cry. They hug each other. They hope someone will help them. + +A lady sees them. She is nice. She has a big hat. She walks to them. + +"Hello, little ones," she says. "Why are you crying? Are you lost?" + +"Yes," Lily says. "We came from the park. We saw a sign that said 'Exit'. We thought it was a fun place. But it was not. It was scary. We want to go back." + +The lady smiles. She says, "Oh, I see. You made a joke. You did not really want to exit. You wanted to stay in the park. That is funny." + +Lily and Ben do not understand. They do not think it is funny. They think it is sad. + +The lady says, "Don't worry. I will help you. I know where the park is. I will take you there. Come with me." + +She holds their hands. She leads them to the gate. She shows them the sign. She says, "This is the exit. It means you can leave. But you can also come back. See? The gate is open. You can go in and out. It is not different. It is the same." + +Lily and Ben see the park. They see the slide, the swing, and the run. They feel happy. + +"Thank you, lady," they say. "You are nice. You are not scary. You are funny." + +The lady laughs. She says, "You are welcome, little ones. You are cute. You are not sad. You are funny too." + +She hugs them. She says, "Have fun in the park. But remember, if you see a sign that says 'Exit', don't joke. Just stay." + +Lily and Ben nod. They say, "OK. We will. Bye, lady." + +They run to the park. They play. They do not joke. They do not exit. They are happy. +Ben liked to watch the aeroplanes in the sky. He wondered where they were going and what they were carrying. He wanted to fly in an aeroplane one day and see the world. + +One day, his dad told him they were going to the airport to deliver some boxes. Ben was excited. He hoped he could see some aeroplanes up close and maybe even go inside one. + +They drove to the airport and parked near a big hangar. Ben saw many aeroplanes on the runway. Some were taking off and some were landing. He heard the loud noises they made and felt the wind from their wings. + +His dad took the boxes out of the car and put them on a trolley. He told Ben to follow him. They walked towards the hangar. Ben saw a sign that said "Cargo Only". He asked his dad what that meant. + +"It means these aeroplanes only carry things, not people," his dad explained. "They deliver goods to different places. Like these boxes. They have books and toys for children in another country." + +Ben thought that was nice, but he felt a little disappointed. He wanted to see an aeroplane that carried people. He wanted to see the seats and the windows and the pilots. He thought the cargo aeroplanes were boring. + +They reached the hangar and his dad gave the boxes to a man in a uniform. The man thanked them and said he would load them on the next flight. He asked Ben if he wanted to see the aeroplane. + +Ben nodded eagerly. He hoped it would be more interesting than he thought. The man led them to a big door and opened it. Ben gasped. He saw a huge aeroplane with a red and white stripe. It had a big door at the back that was open. He could see many boxes and bags inside. + +"This is our aeroplane," the man said. "It's called a Boeing 747. It can carry up to 100 tons of cargo. It can fly very fast and very far. It's one of the best aeroplanes in the world." + +Ben was amazed. He looked at the aeroplane with awe. He forgot about his disappointment. He thought the aeroplane was awesome. He wanted to know more about it. He asked the man many questions. The man smiled and answered them. He even let Ben sit in the cockpit and touch the buttons. + +Ben had a lot of fun. He thanked the man and his dad for showing him the aeroplane. He decided he liked cargo aeroplanes after all. He still wanted to fly in an aeroplane one day, but he also wanted to deliver things to other children. He thought that would be a great job. He waved goodbye to the aeroplane as they left the hangar. He looked at the sky and dreamed of flying. +Lily wanted to help Mommy make soup. She saw Mommy cut carrots and potatoes and put them in a big pot. Lily liked carrots and potatoes. She wanted to add some salt to the soup. She saw a blue box of salt on the stove. She tried to reach it, but it was too high. She looked for a chair to stand on, but there was none. + +"Mommy, can you lift me up?" Lily asked. "I want to put salt in the soup." + +"No, Lily, you can't do that," Mommy said. "The stove is hot and the salt is spicy. You might burn yourself or make the soup too salty. You can help me stir the soup with this spoon instead." + +Lily was not happy. She wanted to put salt in the soup. She thought Mommy was being mean. She pouted and crossed her arms. She did not want to stir the soup with a spoon. She wanted to lift the blue box of salt and shake it over the pot. + +"Please, Mommy, please," Lily begged. "Just a little bit of salt. I promise I won't touch the stove." + +Mommy sighed. She knew Lily was trying to be helpful, but she also knew it was dangerous. She decided to compromise. She lifted Lily up and held her in one arm. She took the blue box of salt in the other hand and opened it. She let Lily sprinkle a tiny bit of salt over the soup. + +"There, that's enough," Mommy said. "Now the soup will be tasty, but not too spicy. Thank you for helping me, Lily. You are a good helper." + +Lily smiled. She felt proud and happy. She hugged Mommy and said, "You're welcome, Mommy. I love you and I love soup." +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to joke a lot. They made funny faces, silly noises and told each other jokes. One day, they found a book with pictures of angels in their room. They wondered what angels were and what they did. + +"Maybe angels are like birds, but with no feathers," Lily said. + +"Maybe angels are like stars, but with no light," Ben said. + +They decided to dress up as angels and pretend to fly. They took some white sheets from the closet and wrapped them around their bodies. They cut out some wings from cardboard and taped them to their backs. They also made some halos from wire and glitter. + +They ran around the house, flapping their wings and singing. They felt very lively and happy. They went to the living room, where their mom was reading a magazine. + +"Look, mom, we are angels!" Lily said. + +"Wow, you are very creative and cute, my little angels," mom said. + +"Can we tell you a joke, mom?" Ben asked. + +"Sure, I love jokes. What is it?" mom said. + +Ben whispered something in Lily's ear, and they both giggled. + +"Knock, knock," Lily said. + +"Who's there?" mom said. + +"Angel," Lily said. + +"Angel who?" mom said. + +"Angel cake, do you want a slice?" Lily said. + +They both laughed and hugged their mom. Mom smiled and said, "That's a very sweet joke, my angels. You make me very happy." +Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with toys and make noise. One day, they find a big boot in the yard. It is brown and dirty and has a hole in it. + +"Look, a boot!" Tim says. "We can use it for our show!" + +"What show?" Sam asks. + +"Our show for mom and dad!" Tim says. "We can perform with the boot and make them laugh!" + +Sam thinks this is a good idea. He likes to make mom and dad laugh. He puts the boot on his hand and makes it talk. + +"Hello, I am a boot!" he says in a funny voice. "I can walk and jump and sing!" + +Tim claps and laughs. He gets a hat and puts it on the boot. + +"Now you are a fancy boot!" he says. "Can you dance?" + +"Yes, I can dance!" Sam says with the boot. He makes the boot move up and down and side to side. + +They practice their show for a long time. They make up songs and jokes and stories with the boot. They have a lot of fun. + +When mom and dad come home, they are tired and hungry. They see Tim and Sam waiting for them with a big smile. + +"Mom, dad, we have a show for you!" Tim says. "You will love it!" + +They sit on the couch and watch Tim and Sam perform with the boot. They try to be nice, but they think the show is boring. They have seen the boot many times before. They do not laugh or clap. + +Tim and Sam are sad. They worked hard on their show. They think the boot is funny and fun. + +"Why don't you like our show?" Tim asks. + +"Sorry, boys, but we have seen the boot before," mom says. "It is not very new or exciting." + +"We can make it new and exciting!" Sam says. "We can add more things to the boot!" + +He runs to his room and comes back with a scarf, a belt, a sock, and a spoon. He puts them on the boot and makes it look different. + +"Look, now the boot is a pirate!" he says. "Arrr, matey, I have a spoon for a sword!" + +Tim thinks this is a great idea. He runs to his room and comes back with a ball, a string, a book, and a cup. He puts them on the boot and makes it look different. + +"Look, now the boot is a clown!" he says. "Ha ha, I have a ball for a nose!" + +They perform with the boot again. They make it talk and sing and dance and act. They have a lot of fun. + +Mom and dad watch them again. They see how happy and creative they are. They start to laugh and clap. + +"Wow, boys, you have made the boot very new and exciting!" mom says. "You have a great show!" + +"We are glad you like it!" Tim says. + +"We love it!" dad says. + +They hug and kiss Tim and Sam. They tell them they are proud of them. They say they are sorry for being boring. + +Tim and Sam are happy. They love mom and dad. They love the boot. They love their show. They are not bored. They are performers. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play catch with a yellow ball. They throw the ball to each other and run and laugh. + +One day, the sky is dark and the wind is loud. Lily and Ben hear a big noise. It is a hurricane. The hurricane is very strong and scary. It blows the trees and the houses and the cars. + +Lily and Ben are afraid. They run to their mom and dad. Their mom and dad hug them and take them to a safe place. They say, "Don't worry, we are here. The hurricane will go away soon." + +The hurricane goes away after a long time. Lily and Ben see the sun and the blue sky again. They are happy. They go outside and look for their yellow ball. They find it under a bush. It is dirty but not broken. + +Lily and Ben smile and hug their yellow ball. They say, "We are glad you are okay, yellow ball. We missed you. Let's play catch again." They throw the ball to each other and run and laugh. +Tom and Lily were hungry. They wanted to eat bread and butter. They saw a big jar of butter on the table. But Mom said, "No, that is not for you. That is for the cake. Wait for lunch." + +Tom and Lily did not listen. They waited for Mom to go to the bathroom. Then they ran to the table. They took the jar of butter and a knife. They spread butter on their bread. They ate and ate. The butter was good. + +But soon they felt sick. Their tummies hurt. They had eaten too much butter. They saw Mom coming back. They were scared. They hid the jar of butter under the tablecloth. They hoped Mom would not see. + +Mom saw the bread crumbs on the table. She saw the knife with butter. She lifted the tablecloth. She saw the jar of butter. It was almost empty. She was angry. + +"Tom and Lily, what did you do?" she asked. "Did you eat the butter for the cake?" + +Tom and Lily looked at Mom. They looked at each other. They felt bad. They said, "Yes, Mom, we did. We are sorry. We regret it. We wanted to eat bread and butter. The butter was good. But now we feel sick. And we spoiled the cake." + +Mom sighed. She said, "Tom and Lily, you were naughty. You did not obey me. You wasted the butter. You ruined the cake. You made me sad. And you made yourselves sick. You should not have eaten the butter. You should have waited for lunch." + +Tom and Lily nodded. They said, "We know, Mom. We are sorry. We regret it. We will not do it again. Can you forgive us?" + +Mom hugged them. She said, "I love you, Tom and Lily. I forgive you. But you have to learn from your mistake. Next time, listen to me. And eat only what is good for you." + +Tom and Lily hugged Mom. They said, "We love you, Mom. We will listen to you. And we will eat only what is good for us." +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They enjoy the sun and the grass and the flowers. They also like to watch the birds. The birds are many colors. Some are red, some are blue, some are yellow. The birds sing and fly and hop. + +One day, Lily and Tom see a big bird. It is brown and white and has a long neck. It is a goose. The goose is near the pond. It looks at Lily and Tom. Lily and Tom look at the goose. + +"Hello, goose," Lily says. "You are a big bird. Do you like the pond?" + +The goose nods. It makes a loud noise. "Honk, honk," it says. + +"Can we feed you?" Tom asks. He has some bread in his bag. He breaks a piece and throws it to the goose. + +The goose eats the bread. It makes another noise. "Honk, honk," it says. + +"Thank you, Tom," Lily says. "That was nice of you. The bread is tasty for the goose." + +The goose nods again. It walks to Lily and Tom. It lets them touch its feathers. The feathers are soft and warm. + +Lily and Tom smile. They enjoy the goose. The goose enjoys them. They are friends. +One day, a green pig was walking in the farm. He saw a big red barn and wanted to go inside. He knocked on the door and said, "Hello, can I come in?" + +A cow opened the door and looked at the green pig. She was surprised and asked, "Who are you? Why are you green?" + +The green pig smiled and replied, "I am a pig, and I am green because I like to roll in the grass. It makes me happy and cool. Can I come in?" + +The cow shook her head and said, "No, you cannot come in. This is the barn for cows, not for pigs. You are different and strange. Go away!" + +The green pig felt sad and walked away. He saw a yellow duck by the pond and said, "Hello, can I play with you?" + +The duck looked at the green pig and said, "Who are you? Why are you green?" + +The green pig repeated, "I am a pig, and I am green because I like to roll in the grass. It makes me happy and cool. Can I play with you?" + +The duck nodded and said, "Yes, you can play with me. You are a pig, and I am a duck, but we are both animals. You are not different and strange. You are fun and friendly. Come on, let's splash in the water!" + +The green pig felt happy and played with the duck. He learned that being green was not bad, and that he could find friends who liked him for who he was. +Lily and Max were playing in the mud. They made mud pies and mud castles and mud animals. They had a lot of fun, but they also got very dirty. + +"Look at us!" Lily said. "We are brown from head to toe!" + +"Yes, we are!" Max agreed. "But we can't go inside like this. Mom will be mad." + +They heard Mom calling them from the door. "Lily! Max! Time for a bath!" + +They ran to the door, leaving a trail of mud behind them. Mom saw them and shook her head. + +"Oh, my! You two are a mess!" she said. "But don't worry, I will provide you with a nice, warm bath and some clean clothes." + +She took them to the bathroom and filled the tub with water and bubbles. She helped them wash their hair and their bodies, and rinsed them with a shower. They splashed and giggled in the water. + +"Thank you, Mom!" they said. "This feels good!" + +Mom smiled and wrapped them in soft, fluffy bathrobes. She dried their hair and gave them a hug. + +"You're welcome, my loves!" she said. "Now you are clean and cozy. How about some hot chocolate and a story?" + +They nodded and followed her to the living room. They snuggled on the couch with their bathrobes and their cups. Mom read them a story about a princess and a dragon. They listened and smiled. They felt happy and sleepy. + +The end. +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for worms. They found a big, fat worm and put it in a jar. + +"Look, Lily, our worm is so wiggly!" Ben said. + +"Yes, he is. He is a good worm. We will be gentle with him," Lily said. + +They put some dirt and leaves in the jar and made a hole in the lid. They wanted the worm to be happy. + +But it was a very hot day. The sun was shining brightly and the jar was on the grass. The worm felt very warm and thirsty. He tried to find some water, but there was none. + +Lily and Ben went inside to have a snack. They forgot about the worm. + +When they came back, they saw the jar. The worm was not wiggly anymore. He was very still and soft. + +"Oh no, Lily, our worm melted!" Ben cried. + +Lily looked at the jar and felt very sad. She picked it up and shook it gently. + +"Please, worm, wake up. We are sorry. We did not mean to hurt you," she said. + +But the worm did not wake up. He was gone. + +Lily and Ben buried the worm in the garden. They said sorry and goodbye. They learned to be more careful with their friends. +Lily and Anna are sisters. They like to play together. One day, they find a big box in the living room. It has a bow on it. + +"Wow, what is this?" Lily asks. + +"Maybe it is a present for us," Anna says. + +They run to the box and try to open it. But it is too hard. They need help. + +They call their mom. "Mom, can you help us open this box?" + +Mom comes and smiles. She says, "This is a special surprise for you, my girls. It is from your grandma. She sent it for your birthday." + +Lily and Anna are happy. They hug their mom and say, "Thank you, mom. We love you and grandma." + +Mom helps them open the box. Inside, they find two dolls.

Lily likes pink very much. She wants to make pink marks on the paper. She does not want to share her pink crayon with Tom. + +Tom sees the pink crayon. He likes pink too. He asks Lily, "Can I have the pink crayon, please?" Lily says, "No, it is mine. You have other crayons." Tom feels sad. He says, "But I want to try the pink crayon. Please, Lily, give me the pink crayon for a little bit." + +Lily thinks. She likes Tom. He is her friend. He is patient with her. He helps her when she needs help. He shares his toys with her. She decides to be nice to Tom. She says, "Okay, Tom, you can have the pink crayon for a little bit. But you have to give it back to me soon." + +Tom is happy. He says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend." He takes the pink crayon and makes some pink marks on the paper. He shows them to Lily. Lily smiles. She says, "They are very pretty, Tom. I like them." She gives Tom a hug. They continue to play with the crayons and paper. They have fun. They are good friends. +Anna and Ben are brother and sister. They like to play together, but sometimes they fight. Mom and Dad tell them to behave and share their toys, but they do not always listen. + +One day, Mom and Dad have to go out for a while. They ask Grandma to watch Anna and Ben. Grandma is very nice, but she is not regular. She has a big hat with flowers, and she talks to her cat. Anna and Ben think she is funny, but they also wonder what she will do. + +"Be good, children," Mom and Dad say. "We will be back soon. Listen to Grandma and do what she says." + +Anna and Ben nod, but they have a plan. They want to play a trick on Grandma. They want to hide her hat and her cat, and make her look for them. They think it will be fun. + +They wait until Grandma goes to the kitchen to make tea. Then they sneak into her room and grab her hat and her cat. They run to the closet and hide them inside. They giggle and wait for Grandma to come back. + +But Grandma is not silly. She knows what Anna and Ben are doing. She has a plan too. She pretends to be surprised and worried when she sees her hat and her cat are gone. + +"Oh dear, oh dear," she says. "Where are my hat and my cat? They are my best friends. I can't find them anywhere. What will I do?" + +Anna and Ben try to hold their laughter. They watch Grandma from behind the door. They think she is looking everywhere, but she is not. She is looking at them. + +She walks to the closet and opens it. She sees her hat and her cat, and she sees Anna and Ben. She smiles and says, "Gotcha!" + +Anna and Ben are shocked. They did not expect Grandma to find them so fast. They feel ashamed and sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Grandma. We wanted to play a trick on you. We did not mean to make you sad." + +Grandma hugs them and says, "It's okay, children. I know you were just having fun. But you should not take things that are not yours. And you should behave and respect your elders. Do you understand?" + +Anna and Ben nod and say, "Yes, Grandma. We understand. We will behave and be nice to you. And to each other." + +Grandma smiles and says, "That's good. Now, let's have some tea and cookies. And maybe we can play a game together. A regular game, not a trick." + +Anna and Ben agree. They put back Grandma's hat and cat, and follow her to the kitchen. They learn that Grandma is not only funny, but also smart and kind. They have a good time with her, and they forget about their plan. They behave and enjoy their regular game. +Anna loves the fall season. She likes to see the leaves change color and fall from the trees. She likes to wear her cozy sweater and boots. She likes to pick apples and pumpkins with her family. + +One day, Anna and her mom go for a walk in the park. They see many lovely things. They see a big pond with ducks and geese. They see a bridge with flowers and vines. They see a playground with swings and slides. + +Anna wants to play on the swings. She runs to the swing set and finds an empty one. She sits on the swing and asks her mom to push her. Her mom pushes her gently and Anna feels happy. She swings higher and higher and laughs. + +Then, Anna sees something shiny on the ground. She stops swinging and jumps off. She runs to the shiny thing and picks it up. It is a coin. It is silver and round and has a picture of a man on it. Anna thinks it is pretty and special. + +She runs back to her mom and shows her the coin. Her mom smiles and says, "What a lucky find, Anna! You can keep it as a souvenir of this lovely day." Anna hugs her mom and says, "Thank you, mom. I love you." She puts the coin in her pocket and stands on the swing again. She asks her mom to push her one more time. Her mom pushes her and Anna swings happily. She thinks this is the best fall season ever. +Lily liked to draw with ink. She had many colors of ink and many papers to draw on. She drew flowers and stars and animals and people. She was happy when she drew. + +But one day, her little brother Tom came into her room. He saw the ink and the papers. He wanted to play with them. He did not ask Lily. He took the ink and the papers and ran away. + +Lily was angry and sad. She ran after Tom. She saw him in the living room. He was throwing ink and papers everywhere. He was making a big mess. He was destroying Lily's drawings. + +Lily shouted at Tom. She tried to take the ink and the papers from him. But Tom did not listen.

She saw Lily and Tom. She was very angry and anxious. She scolded Tom. She told him to stop destroying Lily's drawings. She told him to say sorry to Lily.

Sara puts her doll, her book and her hat in her bag. Ben puts his car, his ball and his cap in his bag. + +"Are you ready?" Mom asks. "We have to go soon." + +"Yes, Mom," Sara and Ben say. They zip their bags and carry them to the car. + +On the way, they hear a loud sound. It is a big truck. The truck is ugly. It is dirty and rusty. It has a broken light and a dent. + +"Look at that truck!" Sara says. "It is so ugly!" + +"I don't like it," Ben says. "It makes a bad sound." + +Mom smiles. "Don't worry," she says. "It is just a truck. It can't hurt us. We will be at Grandma's soon. She has a nice house and a pretty garden. And she has cookies for us." + +Sara and Ben forget about the ugly truck. They think about Grandma and her cookies. They are happy. They can't wait to see her. +Lily had a bear that she loved very much. His name was Brownie and he was very soft and reliable. He always listened to her stories and hugged her when she was sad. Lily took Brownie everywhere she went, even to school. + +One day, Lily and Brownie were in the car with Mommy. They were going to the park to play with their friends. Lily was very happy and excited. She put Brownie on her lap and talked to him. + +"Brownie, we are going to have so much fun at the park. We can slide and swing and run and jump. Do you like the park, Brownie?" + +Brownie nodded and smiled. He liked the park too. He liked to see the birds and the flowers and the other children. He liked to be with Lily. + +When they arrived at the park, Lily jumped out of the car and ran to the playground. She forgot to take Brownie with her. She left him on the seat. Brownie felt sad and lonely. He wanted to play with Lily. He hoped she would come back soon. + +But Lily did not come back soon. She was having too much fun with her friends. She did not remember Brownie. She did not see him on the seat. She did not hear him call her name. + +Brownie waited and waited. He felt scared and cold. He wondered if Lily would ever find him. He wished he could be with her. He missed her very much. He was a reliable bear, but he needed a reliable friend. +Ben and Lily were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They had a big blue bucket and a yellow shovel to make sand castles. + +One day, they saw a boy with a toy shark. It was gray and had sharp teeth and a fin. It looked very real and scary. Ben and Lily were envious of the boy. They wanted to play with the toy shark too. + +"Can we have your shark?" Ben asked the boy. + +"No, it's mine!" the boy said. "Go away!" + +Ben and Lily were sad and angry. They decided to make a plan. They waited until the boy went to get a drink. Then they ran to his spot and grabbed the toy shark. They ran back to their sand castle and hid it under the sand. They covered it with more sand so no one could see it. + +They were very happy and proud. They had the toy shark now. They smiled at each other and waited for the boy to come back. + +But they did not know that the toy shark was not just a toy. It was a remote-controlled shark. The boy had a controller in his hand. He saw what Ben and Lily did. He was very mad. He pressed a button on the controller. + +Suddenly, the sand castle shook. The toy shark burst out of the sand. It moved its tail and jaws. It made a loud roar. It chased Ben and Lily across the beach. + +Ben and Lily were very scared. They dropped the toy shark and ran to their mom and dad. They cried and said they were sorry. They learned their lesson. They should not take things that are not theirs. They should not be envious of others. They should be nice and share. +Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play with toys and run in the park. But they do not like to share. They always fight over who gets the best toy or the biggest cookie. + +One day, Ben finds a wallet on the street. It is brown and shiny. It has money and cards inside. Ben thinks it is a cool toy. He does not tell Sam. He puts the wallet in his pocket and runs home. + +Sam sees Ben running. He thinks Ben has something fun. He follows him to their room. He asks Ben what he has. Ben says he has nothing. He lies to Sam. He hides the wallet under his pillow. + +Sam does not believe Ben. He waits until Ben goes to the bathroom. He sneaks into their room. He looks under Ben's pillow. He finds the wallet. He is angry. He thinks Ben is mean. He takes the wallet and runs away. + +Ben comes back from the bathroom. He sees that his pillow is moved. He looks under it. He sees that the wallet is gone. He is sad. He thinks Sam took it. He runs after Sam. + +They both go outside. They see a big man. He is looking for something. He is the owner of the wallet. He is tough and scary. He sees Ben and Sam with his wallet. He is mad. He yells at them. He thinks they are thieves. He grabs the wallet from Sam. He pushes Ben and Sam to the ground. He calls the police. + +Ben and Sam are in trouble. They cry and say they are sorry. They wish they did not lie and fight. They wish they shared and played nice. But it is too late. The police come and take them away. The end. +Lily and Mom went to the mall. Lily liked the mall. She saw many toys and clothes and books. She wanted to buy everything. But Mom said no. Mom said they only had money for food and a gift for Dad. + +Lily was sad. She did not like to hear no. She wanted to have fun. She saw a big fountain in the middle of the mall. She saw coins in the water. She thought they were shiny and pretty. She wanted to take them. She ran to the fountain and reached for the coins. + +"Stop, Lily!" Mom shouted. "You can't do that. Those coins are not yours. They are for wishes. People throw them in the fountain and make a wish. It is not nice to take them." + +Lily did not listen. She grabbed a coin and put it in her pocket. She smiled. She thought she was clever. She did not see the man who was watching her. He was a security guard. He worked at the mall. He saw what Lily did. He did not like it. He walked to Lily and Mom. + +"Excuse me, ma'am," he said to Mom. "I'm sorry, but your daughter took a coin from the fountain. That is not allowed. She has to give it back." + +Mom was shocked. She did not know what Lily did. She looked at Lily. Lily looked scared. She knew she did something bad. She did not want to give back the coin. She liked the coin. She thought it was hers. + +Mom was angry. She was also embarrassed. She did not want to make a scene. She did not want to get in trouble. She took the coin from Lily's pocket and gave it to the guard. She said sorry to the guard. She said sorry to the people who made wishes. She said sorry to Lily. She said they had to go home. She said Lily was in big trouble. + +Lily was sad. She did not want to go home. She did not want to be in trouble. She did not want to say sorry. She wanted to keep the coin. She wanted to make a wish. She wished she never took the coin. She wished she listened to Mom. She wished she was good. But it was too late. The coin was gone. The wish did not appear. The day was difficult. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys, draw pictures and share snacks. One day, they found a big box of markers in the classroom. They were very happy and decided to make some art. + +Lily wanted to draw a rainbow. She picked up a red marker and started to make a curve on a white paper. Ben wanted to draw a dinosaur. He picked up a green marker and started to make a big shape on another white paper. They were having fun. + +But then, Ben ran out of green. He looked around and saw that Lily had a green marker too. He wanted to use it for his dinosaur. He did not ask Lily. He just grabbed the green marker from her hand. Lily was very angry. She shouted at Ben and tried to get her marker back. Ben shouted back and held the marker tight. They pulled and pushed and fought over the marker. + +The teacher heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lily and Ben fighting and the papers torn and marked. She was very sad. She took the marker from them and put it away. She told them to sit in different corners and think about what they did. She said they were not being good friends. + +Lily and Ben felt miserable. They did not like to fight. They did not like to make the teacher sad. They did not like to sit alone. They missed each other. They wanted to say sorry. They wanted to hug. + +After a while, the teacher came back and asked them if they were ready to talk. Lily and Ben nodded. They said sorry to each other and to the teacher. They said they would share and ask and be nice. The teacher smiled and gave them each a hug. She said they were good friends again. + +Lily and Ben felt happy. They hugged each other and went back to their art. They decided to make a new picture together. They used all the colors and made a rainbow dinosaur. They showed it to the teacher and she said it was beautiful. They were very proud and put it on the wall. They played with their toys, drew more pictures and shared snacks. They were best friends. +Jen and Ben were twins who liked to bake with Mom. They helped Mom to make a cake for Dad's birthday. They put flour, sugar, eggs, and butter in a big bowl. Mom used a whip to mix them well. + +"Can I lick the whip, Mom?" Jen asked. + +"Me too, me too!" Ben said. + +"OK, but only a little bit. We need some for the icing," Mom said. She gave them each a lick of the whip. It was sweet and yummy. + +Mom poured the batter into a pan and put it in the oven. She told Jen and Ben to wait for the cake to bake. They played with their toys while they smelled the cake. It smelled like vanilla and chocolate. + +After a while, Mom took the cake out of the oven. It was hot and brown. She let it cool on a rack. Then she made the icing with more butter, sugar, and cocoa. She used the whip again to make it smooth and fluffy. + +"Can we help you put the icing on the cake, Mom?" Jen asked. + +"Sure, you can spread it with a knife. Be careful, it's sticky," Mom said. She gave them each a knife and a spoon of icing. They spread it on the cake, making swirls and dots. + +The cake looked beautiful and delicious. Mom put some candles on top and wrote "Happy Birthday Dad" with more icing. She put the cake in the fridge to make the icing icy. + +"Can we eat the cake now, Mom?" Ben asked. + +"Not yet, we have to wait for Dad to come home. He will be so happy to see the cake you made for him," Mom said. + +Jen and Ben nodded. They hugged Mom and said, "We love you, Mom. And we love Dad. And we love cake." +Lily and Ben were friends who liked to swim in the pool. They had fun splashing and kicking in the water. But one day, Ben saw a big slide that had a handle on it. He wanted to try it. + +"Come on, Lily, let's go on the slide!" he said. + +Lily looked at the slide and felt uncomfortable. It was very high and steep. She was scared to go on it. + +"No, Ben, I don't want to. It looks scary. Let's stay in the pool," she said. + +Ben was annoyed. He thought Lily was being silly. He wanted to have more fun. + +"Don't be a baby, Lily. It's not scary. It's fun. I'll go first and show you," he said. + +He climbed up the ladder and grabbed the handle. He slid down the slide very fast and made a big splash. He laughed and shouted. + +"See, Lily, it's fun! Come on, your turn!" + +Lily shook her head. She didn't want to go on the slide. She wanted to stay in the pool. She felt sad and lonely. + +"Ben, please come back to the pool. I don't like the slide. I like the pool. Can we play together?" she asked. + +Ben looked at Lily and saw that she was unhappy. He felt sorry for her. He realized that he was being mean. He swam back to the pool and hugged her. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I was being mean. You don't have to go on the slide if you don't want to. I like the pool too. Can we be friends again?" he asked. + +Lily smiled and nodded. She forgave Ben. They were friends again. They played in the pool and had fun. They both liked to swim. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with their toys. One day, they find a big box in the garage. The box has many wires and lights. Tom says, "What is this?" + +Sue says, "I don't know. Maybe it is a network. A network is something that connects things." + +Tom says, "Can we play with it?" + +Sue says, "I don't know. Maybe it is not for us. Maybe it is for dad. He works with networks." + +Tom says, "Let's try it. Maybe it is fun." + +Sue says, "OK. But be careful. Don't break it." + +They open the box and see many buttons and switches. They start to press them and see the lights change. They hear some noises and voices. They are surprised and curious. + +One voice says, "Hello, this is Bob from the network team. Who is this?" + +Tom says, "Hello, this is Tom. I am playing with the network." + +The voice says, "What? Playing with the network? Where are you?" + +Tom says, "I am in the garage. Sue is with me. We are friends." + +The voice says, "You are in the garage? How did you get there? You are not supposed to be there. The network is very important and fast. It helps dad and many people work. You can't play with it. You can break it. Come out of the garage now. I will tell dad." + +Tom and Sue are scared. They drop the wires and run out of the garage. They see dad coming. He looks angry. He says, "What are you doing in the garage? Who gave you permission to touch the network?" + +Tom and Sue say, "We are sorry, dad. We didn't know. We just wanted to play." + +Dad says, "You can't play with the network. It is not a toy. It is a tool. It is very fast and complex. You can damage it or hurt yourself. You have to be careful and listen to me. Do you understand?" + +Tom and Sue say, "Yes, dad. We understand. We won't do it again." + +Dad says, "OK. I forgive you. But next time, ask me before you touch anything in the garage. And don't go near the network. It is not for you. It is for work." + +Tom and Sue say, "OK, dad. We will. Can we play with our toys now?" + +Dad says, "Yes, you can. But only in your room. And be nice to each other." + +Tom and Sue say, "OK, dad. We will. We love you." + +Dad says, "I love you too. Now go and play." +Ben and Lily were playing in the sand. They had a bucket and a spade each. They wanted to make a big castle with towers and flags. + +"Look, Lily, I made a door for the castle!" Ben said, digging a hole with his spade. + +"Wow, Ben, that's great! I made a window for the castle!" Lily said, scooping some sand with her spade. + +They worked hard and soon they had a nice castle. They were very happy. + +But then a big dog came running. He saw the castle and thought it was fun. He jumped on it and smashed it with his paws. He barked and wagged his tail. + +"Hey, stop that! You ruined our castle!" Ben shouted, waving his spade. + +"Go away, bad dog! Leave us alone!" Lily cried, holding her bucket. + +The dog did not listen. He kept playing with the sand. He bit Ben's spade and ran away with it. + +"Come back, dog! That's my spade!" Ben yelled, chasing the dog. + +Lily was left alone with her bucket. She looked at the mess. She felt very sad. She realized that their castle was gone and that they had no spade to make a new one.

She wished they could have fun again. +Lily liked to look at the birds in the pet shop. She saw many colors and shapes of birds. Some were big and some were small. Some were loud and some were quiet. Lily wanted to have a bird of her own. + +One day, Lily's mom took her to the pet shop. Lily ran to the birdcage section. She saw a yellow bird with a red crest. It was singing a pretty song. Lily pointed at the bird and said, "Mom, can I have that bird? Please, please, please!" + +Mom looked at the bird and smiled. She said, "That bird is very nice, but it needs a lot of care. You have to feed it, clean its cage, and play with it every day. Do you think you can do that?" + +Lily nodded eagerly. She said, "Yes, Mom, I can do that. I promise, I promise, I promise!" + +Mom thought for a moment. She said, "OK, Lily, I will buy you the bird, but you have to be responsible. You have to be organized and keep your room clean. You have to do your homework and help with the chores. And you have to be gentle and kind to the bird. Do you understand?" + +Lily hugged her mom and said, "Yes, Mom, I understand. Thank you, thank you, thank you!" + +Mom paid for the bird and the cage. She gave them to Lily. Lily was very happy. She named the bird Sunny. She took Sunny home and put the cage in her room.

They want to jump in it and splash. + +"Can we play in the mud, Mom?" Anna asks. + +"No, you can't," Mom says. "You will get dirty and wet. And Spot will get dirty too. Then you will have to take a bath and wash your clothes. And I will have to clean the floor and the sofa. It is too much work." + +"But Mom, it looks so fun!" Ben says. "Please, please, please, can we play in the mud?" + +Mom shakes her head. "No, I don't allow it. It is not a good idea. Now go and play with your toys or read a book. And don't bother me. I have to cook dinner." + +Anna and Ben are sad. They don't want to play with their toys or read a book. They want to play in the mud. They look at each other and wink. They have a plan. + +They wait until Mom is busy in the kitchen. Then they sneak outside with Spot. They run to the puddle and jump in it. They splash and laugh and roll in the mud. Spot barks and joins them. They have a lot of fun. + +But Mom hears the noise. She looks out of the window and sees them. She is very angry. She goes outside and shouts at them. + +"What are you doing? You are so dirty and naughty! How could you disobey me? Come here right now! You are in big trouble!" + +Anna and Ben are scared. They know they did something wrong. They follow Mom inside. Spot follows them too. They leave a trail of mud on the floor and the sofa. + +Mom gives them a lecture. She tells them why they should not play in the mud. She tells them why they should listen to her. She tells them they have to take a bath and wash their clothes.

It was blue and had a horn and a flag. It looked very fun. Lily wanted to try it. She asked her mom and dad if she could. + +"Who does it belong to?" her mom asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe they left it here," Lily said. + +"You can't take someone else's bicycle, Lily. That's not nice. They might come back and look for it," her dad said. + +"But I just want to ride it for a little bit. Please, please, please," Lily begged. + +"No, Lily. You have your own bicycle. Come on, let's go home," her mom said. + +Lily was sad. She did not want to leave the different bicycle. She wanted to play with it. She thought it was better than her red bicycle. She pouted and cried. + +"Maybe you can make your bicycle different, too. You can put some stickers on it, or a ribbon, or a toy. Would you like that?" her dad suggested. + +Lily thought about it. She liked stickers and ribbons and toys. She nodded and smiled. + +"Okay, let's go home and make your bicycle different. But first, say sorry to the blue bicycle for wanting to take it," her mom said. + +Lily looked at the blue bicycle. She felt sorry. She said, "Sorry, blue bicycle. You are very fun, but you are not mine. I hope your owner comes back soon. Bye-bye." + +Then she got on her red bicycle and rode home with her mom and dad. She was happy again. She decided to make her bicycle different with a flower, a star and a teddy bear. She loved her bicycle. It was the best bicycle in the world. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big tent in the park. It is red and blue and has a door. + +"Let's go inside the tent!" Anna says. "Maybe we can find something fun." + +"OK!"

She is looking for them. + +"Oh no, we have to go!" Anna says. "Mom is here!" + +They grab their things and run out of the tent. But they are too fast. They feel dizzy and fall down. + +"Ouch!" Anna says. "My head hurts!" + +"Me too!" Ben says. "I feel sick!" + +Anna's mom sees them and runs to them. She is worried. + +"Are you OK?" She asks. "What were you doing in the tent?" + +"We were playing, mom," Anna says. "We found the tent and it had a lot of fun things inside." + +"Who sent the tent?" Anna's mom asks. "Did you ask anyone before you went inside?" + +"No, mom," Anna says. "We just saw it and went in." + +"That was not a good idea, Anna," Anna's mom says. "You should not go inside a tent that you do not know. It could be dangerous. Someone could have sent the tent to trick you or hurt you. You should always ask an adult before you go somewhere new." + +"I'm sorry, mom," Anna says. "I did not think about that." + +"I'm sorry too, mom," Ben says. "We were just curious." + +Anna's mom hugs them and helps them up. She is not angry, but she is serious. + +"I'm glad you are OK, but you have to be careful, OK?" She says. "Curiosity is good, but safety is important too. Next time, please ask me or Ben's mom before you play in a new place." + +"OK, mom," Anna and Ben say. They nod and smile. They learned their lesson. They will not go inside a strange tent again. They will always ask an adult first. +It was winter and the snow was white and cold. Lily and Tom liked to play in the snow.

They opened the cage and took out a big animal. It was a tiger. The tiger had orange and black stripes and sharp teeth. It looked angry and hungry. + +Tim and Mia were scared of the tiger. They did not recognize it. They had never seen a tiger before. They only knew about cats and dogs and birds. They thought the tiger was an enormous cat that wanted to eat them. + +They ran away from the tiger and hid behind a tree. They hoped the men would put the tiger back in the cage and take it away. They did not want to play with the ball anymore. They wanted to go home and be safe. + +The men saw that the tiger was not happy. They tried to calm it down and give it some food. They wanted to take the tiger to the zoo, where it could have a big space and other tigers to play with. They did not want to hurt the tiger or the children. + +They put the tiger back in the cage and closed the door. They said sorry to Tim and Mia and told them not to be afraid.

They asked the men some questions about the tiger and listened to their answers. They learned that the tiger had a name, Raju, and that he came from a faraway land, India.

They felt sorry for Raju, but also glad that he would have a better place to live. They decided to go to the zoo one day and see him again. They also decided to read some books and watch some videos about tigers and other animals. They wanted to recognize more animals and learn more about them. +Sara likes her long hair.

They pretended they were racing each other. + +"Look, I'm faster than you!" Mia said, as she pushed her car ahead of Leo's. + +"No, you're not!" Leo said, as he tried to catch up with her. + +They reached the end of the garden, where there was a big fence. Mia saw a small hole in the fence. She wondered what was on the other side.

She started to cry. + +Leo heard her and ran to her. He saw her finger and the hole in the fence. He looked through the hole and saw a cat. The cat had a collar with a tag that said "Lily".

The cat is fragile and needs our help." + +He put the bowl near the hole and called the cat softly. "Here, kitty, kitty. Come and drink some water. We won't hurt you." + +The cat heard Leo's voice and smelled the water. It crawled out of the hole and limped towards the bowl. It drank some water and looked at Leo and Mia.
