+
+"I said it's dangerous" his Mom said firmly. "Stop swinging it around."
+
+But Jack just smiled and kept swinging the cloth. He thought it was fun! Suddenly, the cloth flew into the air and caught on a low-hanging branch. Now it was stuck!

+Once upon a time, there was a little dragon named Ethel. She was very sad and kept looking at the wall. It was so plain, and she wanted it to be pretty.

+"Why will no one comfort me?" she said.
+
+Suddenly, Ethel heard a little voice behind her.
+
+"Don't worry," it said in a soft and calming tone.
+
+Ethel was surprised. She spun around and saw a small angel sitting atop the wall. The angel had warm eyes, and it smiled at Ethel.
+
+"See in the wall?" the angel said, pointing to a crack in the wall. "Something wonderful is going to come out of that hole soon. You'll see!"

+Suddenly, Jack saw a big shade tree. He stopped and looked up at it, and smiled. The shade looked so peaceful and easy. He went up to the tree, and hugged it. 
+
+Jack was so excited, he turned to his Mum and Dad who had been watching him. "Let's go under the tree and play!" he said. 
+
+But his Mum shook her head. "No Jack," she said. "It's too hot out here. We need to go inside. Heading to the shade will make you even hotter." 
+
+Jack frowned, not wanting to leave the shade. But his Dad smiled and said, "We can come to play later. Remember, Jack, things aren't always as easy as they look. When you're playing outside, it's best to stay in the sun and breeze. Then you stay cool." 
+
+Jack nodded. He gazed one last time at the tree, then followed his parents home. 
+
+The moral of this story is that things aren't always as easy as they look. Instead of rushing in, it's best to think carefully and use wisdom. That way, you'll be safe and cool.

+She cried and hugged her hat. She wished she had a friend who liked her hat. Then, she heard a voice. It was a boy with a big smile and a red scarf. He said, "Hi, I'm Ben. I like your hat. It's very pretty. Can I see it?"
+
+Lily looked up and wiped her tears. She smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. Thank you. You can see it." She showed him her hat and he touched the star. He said, "Wow, it's so shiny. How do you make it shine?"
+
+Lily said, "I polish it with a cloth and water. Do you want to try?" Ben nodded and said, "Yes, please." Lily gave him the cloth and he polished the hat. They laughed and talked. They became friends. They played with the ball and the hat. Lily felt happy again. She was glad she met Ben. He liked her hat and he liked her.
+Tommy loved to play with his toy aeroplane. He liked to make it fly in the air and make zooming noises. He pretended he was a pilot and went on adventures. He always kept his aeroplane in his toy box when he was done.
+
+One day, Tommy's mom told him they were going to visit his grandma. Tommy was excited. He wanted to show his grandma his aeroplane. He ran to his toy box and grabbed his aeroplane. He put it in his backpack and zipped it up.
+
+Tommy and his mom got in the car and drove to the airport. Tommy saw many big aeroplanes in the sky. He wondered if his aeroplane could fly as high as them. He wanted to take it out of his backpack and play with it, but his mom said he had to wait until they got on the plane.
+
+They got out of the car and walked to the terminal. Tommy saw a lot of people and bags and carts. He held his mom's hand and followed her. He was careful not to stumble or bump into anyone. He was a good boy.
+
+They got to the gate and waited for their boarding call. Tommy saw a window and ran to it. He wanted to see the aeroplane they were going to fly on. He pressed his nose against the glass and looked outside. He saw a big, shiny, blue aeroplane. It had a red stripe and a white star on the tail. It looked like his toy aeroplane.
+
+Tommy was so happy. He wanted to show his mom and his grandma his aeroplane. He reached for his backpack and opened it. He looked inside and gasped. His aeroplane was not there. He saw only his clothes and his books and his snacks. His aeroplane was gone.
+
+Tommy felt sad and scared. He wondered where his aeroplane was. He remembered he had zipped it up in his backpack. He remembered he had held his mom's hand and walked to the terminal. He remembered he had been careful not to stumble or bump into anyone. He did not remember dropping his aeroplane or leaving it behind.
+
+He started to cry. He ran to his mom and hugged her. He told her his aeroplane was missing. He asked her to help him find it. He hoped it was not lost forever.
+
+His mom hugged him back and wiped his tears. She told him not to worry. She said they would look for his aeroplane. She said maybe someone had found it and turned it in. She said maybe it was still in the car or in the toy box. She said they would find it together.
+
+She took his hand and walked to the lost and found. She asked the lady behind the counter if anyone had brought in a toy aeroplane. The lady smiled and nodded. She reached under the counter and pulled out a toy aeroplane. It was Tommy's aeroplane. It was big, shiny, blue, with a red stripe and a white star on the tail. It looked like the aeroplane they were going to fly on.
+
+Tommy was so happy. He thanked the lady and took his aeroplane. He hugged it and kissed it. He put it back in his backpack and zipped it up. He told his mom he was sorry for being messy and losing his aeroplane. He said he would be more careful next time.
+
+His mom smiled and kissed him. She said she was proud of him for being brave and honest. She said she loved him and his aeroplane. She said they were ready to board the plane and fly to grandma's.
+
+They walked to the gate and showed their tickets. They got on the plane and found their seats. Tommy looked out the window and saw the big, shiny, blue aeroplane. He felt his toy aeroplane in his backpack. He felt happy and safe. He was ready for his adventure.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw a big bunch of grapes on the vine. They wanted to eat some.
+
+"Let's get some grapes!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Ben said.
+
+They ran to the vine and tried to reach the grapes. But they were too high. They could not get them.
+
+"Maybe we can find a ladder," Ben said.
+
+"Or a chair," Lily said.
+
+They looked around the garden. They saw a cat. The cat was black and white. The cat saw the grapes too. The cat jumped on the fence. The cat walked along the fence. The cat reached the vine. The cat bit a grape.
+
+"Look! The cat got a grape!" Lily said.
+
+"Let's follow the cat!" Ben said.
+
+They followed the cat on the fence. They were careful not to fall. They got closer to the vine. They saw more grapes. They stretched their arms. They grabbed some grapes.
+
+"Yay! We got some grapes!" Lily said.
+
+"Yum! They are sweet and juicy!" Ben said.
+
+They ate the grapes. They shared with the cat. The cat purred. They were happy.
+
+They got down from the fence. They were tired. They lay on the grass. They looked at the sky. They saw clouds and birds and a sun.
+
+"Thank you, cat," Lily said.
+
+"Thank you, grapes," Ben said.
+
+They closed their eyes. They fell asleep. They had a nice dream.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the woods near their home. They liked to look for bugs and flowers and birds. One day, they saw a big owl sitting on a branch. The owl had yellow eyes and brown feathers and a sharp beak.
+
+"Wow, look at that owl!" Ben said. "He looks tough. I want to join him and be his friend."
+
+"Be careful, Ben," Lily said. "Owls are not friendly. They eat mice and rabbits and sometimes other birds. He might hurt you."
+
+But Ben did not listen to Lily. He wanted to join the owl. He climbed up the tree and got closer to the branch. The owl saw Ben and turned his head. He did not like Ben. He did not want to be his friend.
+
+"Hello, owl," Ben said. "Can I join you? You look tough and cool. I want to be tough and cool too."
+
+The owl did not answer. He opened his wings and flew at Ben. He scratched Ben's face with his claws and bit his ear with his beak. Ben screamed and fell from the tree. He landed on the ground and hurt his arm and leg.
+
+Lily ran to Ben and saw his blood and tears. She was scared and sad. She hugged Ben and cried. She wished Ben had listened to her. She wished they had not seen the owl. She wished they had played somewhere else. The owl was not tough and cool. He was mean and bad.
+Lila and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. But sometimes, Ben liked to tease Lila. He would pull her hair, hide her toys and call her names. Lila did not like that. She felt sad and angry.
+
+One day, Ben teased Lila too much. He took her doll and threw it in the mud. He laughed and said, "You are a baby, Lila. You still play with dolls. You are silly and ugly." Lila cried and ran away. She wanted her doll back. She wanted Ben to be nice.
+
+She ran to a big tree and hid behind it. She saw a small, shiny thing on the ground. It was a necklace with a black stone. She picked it up and put it on. She felt a warm, tickly feeling in her chest. She heard a voice in her ear. It said, "Hello, Lila. I am a spirit. I live in this stone. You are my friend now. I can help you."
+
+Lila was surprised and scared. She asked, "Who are you? What do you want?" The voice said, "I am a spirit of mischief. I like to have fun. I don't like Ben. He is mean and rude. I can teach him a lesson. Do you want me to?"
+
+Lila thought for a moment. She was still hurt and angry. She wanted Ben to stop teasing her. She wanted him to say sorry. She said, "Yes, please. Teach him a lesson. Make him stop." The voice said, "OK, Lila. Follow me. We will have some fun."
+
+Lila followed the voice. She saw Ben sitting on a bench. He was playing with her doll. He was making it talk in a silly voice. He did not see Lila. The voice said, "Watch this, Lila. I will make Ben's hair turn black. He will look funny. He will be scared." Lila nodded. She wanted to see that.
+
+The voice whispered a word. Ben's hair turned black. He did not notice. He kept playing with the doll. The voice said, "Now, I will make his nose grow big. He will look silly. He will be ashamed." Lila smiled. She wanted to see that.
+
+The voice whispered another word. Ben's nose grew big. He still did not notice. He kept playing with the doll. The voice said, "Now, I will make his voice sound like a frog. He will sound funny. He will be confused." Lila giggled. She wanted to hear that.
+
+The voice whispered one more word. Ben's voice sounded like a frog. He finally noticed. He dropped the doll. He touched his hair, his nose and his mouth. He looked at himself in a puddle. He screamed. He sounded like a frog. He was scared, silly and confused.
+
+Lila laughed. She felt happy. She said, "Thank you, spirit. You taught Ben a lesson. He will not tease me again." The voice said, "You are welcome, Lila. You are my friend. I like you. But remember, I am a spirit of mischief. I like to have fun. Sometimes, I will tease you too. But I will not hurt you. I will make you laugh. Do you still want to be my friend?"
+
+Lila thought for a moment. She liked the spirit. He was funny and helpful. But he was also tricky and naughty. She did not want to be teased too much. She said, "Yes, I want to be your friend. But you have to be nice. You have to be careful. You have to ask me first. OK?" The voice said, "OK, Lila. I will be nice. I will be careful. I will ask you first. We will have fun. Come on, let's go. There is more to see and do."
+
+Lila took her doll and followed the voice. She left Ben behind. He was still screaming and crying. He did not know what to do. He learned his lesson. He did not tease Lila again. Lila and the spirit had fun. They were friends. The end.
+Tom is a boy who likes to sleep. He sleeps in his bed with his teddy bear. He does not like to wake up early. But today, his mom comes to his room and says, "Tom, wake up! It is time for school!"
+
+Tom groans and covers his head with his blanket. He does not want to go to school. He says, "No, mom, I want to sleep more. School is rough. The kids are mean. The teacher is hard. I do not like school."
+
+Mom pulls the blanket away and smiles. She says, "Tom, I know school can be rough sometimes. But you have to go. You will learn many things. You will make new friends. You will have fun. And you will learn new words. Words are good. Words help you talk and read and write and think. Words are fun."
+
+Tom sits up and rubs his eyes. He looks at his mom and says, "Words are fun? How are words fun?"
+
+Mom says, "Words are fun because you can use them to make stories. Stories can be about anything you want. Stories can make you laugh or cry or wonder or dream. Stories can be short or long or silly or scary. Stories are fun."
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He likes stories. He likes to hear stories and tell stories and make stories. He says, "OK, mom, I will go to school. But can you tell me a story first?"
+
+Mom nods and hugs Tom. She says, "Of course, I can tell you a story. What kind of story do you want to hear?"
+
+Tom says, "I want to hear a story about a boy who likes to sleep and his teddy bear and his mom and words and stories."
+
+Mom says, "That sounds like a good story. Let me think. Once upon a time, there was a boy who liked to sleep and his teddy bear and his mom and words and stories. And this is what happened to them..."
+Ben is a farmer. He has a big farm with many animals. He likes to feed the cows, the sheep, the pigs and the chickens. He also likes to plant seeds and grow fruits and vegetables. He works hard every day.
+
+One day, Ben is very tired. He says to his dog, Spot: "I need to rest, Spot. I have done a lot today. Let's go to the house and have a nap." Spot barks and follows Ben. They walk to the house, which is near a big tree.
+
+Ben and Spot lie down on the sofa. Ben closes his eyes and falls asleep. Spot curls up next to him and snores. The farm is peaceful. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, the wind is blowing gently. No one bothers Ben and Spot. They have a nice rest.
+
+After a while, Ben wakes up. He feels better. He stretches and yawns. He says to Spot: "Thank you for being with me, Spot. You are a good friend. Let's go and see the animals. Maybe they need some food or water." Spot barks and jumps off the sofa. They walk to the barn, where the animals are waiting for them.
+
+Ben and Spot are happy. They love their farm. They love their animals. They love their rest. They have a good life.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. Yesterday, they saw a big dog. The dog was not nice. It barked and ran at them.
+
+"Help!" Lily cried. "The dog is scary!"
+
+Tom was brave. He picked up a stick. He said to the dog, "Go away! Leave us alone!"
+
+The dog stopped. It looked at Tom and the stick. It growled. But it did not come closer.
+
+Lily hugged Tom. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You protect me. You are a good friend."
+
+Tom smiled. He said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are a good friend too. Let's go to the swings. The dog can't bother us there."
+
+They ran to the swings. They had fun. They forgot about the dog. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily liked to play with their toys in the garden. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a red ball. They liked to throw it, catch it, and roll it on the grass.
+
+One day, they saw a big black cat in the garden. The cat looked at their red ball and wanted to play with it too. The cat was very clever and waited for Ben and Lily to look away. Then, it ran to the ball and grabbed it with its teeth. It ran away with the ball and hid behind a bush.
+
+Ben and Lily looked for their ball, but they could not find it. They asked their mom, but she did not know where it was. They asked their dad, but he did not know either. They were very sad and angry. They said, "That is our ball! It is ours! The cat took our ball! It is not fair!"
+
+They decided to look for the cat and get their ball back. They walked around the garden and looked behind every bush and tree. They did not see the cat, but they heard a meow. They followed the sound and found the cat behind a big rock. The cat was playing with their ball and having fun.
+
+Ben and Lily ran to the cat and shouted, "Give us our ball! It is ours! You are a bad cat!" The cat was scared and dropped the ball. It ran away and disappeared. Ben and Lily picked up their ball and hugged it. They were very happy and proud. They said, "We found our ball! It is ours! We are clever!" They went back to their mom and dad and showed them their ball. They said, "We got our ball back! The cat took it, but we found it! We are clever!" Their mom and dad smiled and praised them. They said, "You are very clever and brave! We are proud of you! Now, let's play with your ball together!" Ben and Lily nodded and smiled. They threw their ball, caught it, and rolled it on the grass. They had a lot of fun.
+Tom and Mia are playing with tubes in the yard. They like to make sounds with them and pretend they are trumpets. Mia is bossy and tells Tom what to do.
+
+"Tom, you play this tube. It is blue and big. I play this tube. It is red and small. We make a song. You follow me, okay?" Mia says.
+
+Tom nods and tries to copy Mia. But Mia plays too fast and changes the sounds a lot. Tom gets confused and frustrated. He wants to play his own way.
+
+"Mia, you are too bossy. I don't like your song. It is too hard. I want to play my song. It is easy and fun." Tom says.
+
+Mia gets angry and says, "No, Tom. You are wrong. My song is better. You are bad at playing tubes. You have to listen to me. I am the leader."
+
+She strikes Tom's tube with her tube and makes a loud noise. Tom feels hurt and scared. He drops his tube and starts to cry.
+
+Mia feels sorry and says, "Tom, I am sorry. I didn't mean to strike your tube. I was just mad. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Tom stops crying and says, "Okay, Mia. I forgive you. But can we play a different game? I don't like tubes anymore."
+
+Mia agrees and says, "Okay, Tom. Let's play something else. How about we play with balls? We can roll them and catch them and throw them. That sounds fun, right?"
+
+Tom smiles and says, "Yes, Mia. That sounds fun. Let's play with balls."
+
+They pick up their tubes and put them away. Then they get their balls and start to play. They are happy and share and take turns. They are good friends.
+Ben liked to play outside with his shadow. He would run and jump and his shadow would follow him. He would make funny shapes with his hands and his shadow would copy him. He would pretend to be a big animal and his shadow would grow with him.
+
+One day, he saw a new shadow on the wall. It was smaller than his and had pointy ears and a long tail. Ben was curious and went closer. He saw a little cat sitting on the fence. The cat looked at him and meowed.
+
+"Hello, cat. What is your name?" Ben asked.
+
+The cat did not answer. It jumped off the fence and ran away. Ben ran after it. He wanted to be friends with the cat and its shadow. He followed them across the street and into the park. He saw them climb a tree and hide behind the leaves.
+
+"Come down, cat. I want to play with you," Ben called.
+
+The cat peeked out and meowed again. It seemed scared of Ben. Ben felt sad. He did not want to scare the cat. He wanted to be nice to it. He was thoughtful. He had an idea.
+
+He went back to his house and got some milk and a bowl. He brought them to the park and put them under the tree. He stepped back and waited. He hoped the cat would come down and drink the milk. He hoped the cat would like him.
+
+He saw the cat's shadow move on the branch. He saw the cat's eyes shine in the sun. He saw the cat jump down and sniff the milk. He saw the cat lick the milk and purr. He smiled.
+
+"Hello, cat. Do you like the milk?" Ben asked.
+
+The cat looked at him and meowed softly. It rubbed its head against his leg. It let him pet its fur. Ben was happy. He had made a new friend. He and the cat and their shadows played together in the park. They had fun.
+Lily and Ben love to watch fireworks. They like the big and loud ones that make bright colors in the sky. They also like the small and quiet ones that sparkle and crackle on the ground. They always go with their mom and dad to the park on the night of fireworks.
+
+But this year, something bad happened. The park was closed because of a big sick bug that made many people feel bad. Lily and Ben were very sad. They wanted to see the fireworks, but they could not. They felt helpless. They asked their mom and dad if they could make their own fireworks at home, but they said no. They said it was too dangerous and they could get hurt.
+
+Lily and Ben did not give up. They had an idea. They went to their room and looked for things that could make fireworks. They found some paper, some crayons, some glue, and some scissors. They cut the paper into different shapes and colored them with the crayons. They glued them together to make rockets and stars and flowers. They were very proud of their work.
+
+They waited until it was dark and then they took their paper fireworks outside. They asked their mom and dad to come and watch. They held their paper fireworks in their hands and pretended to light them. They threw them in the air and shouted "Boom!" and "Wow!" and "Ooh!" They imagined that their paper fireworks were real and that they made beautiful colors in the sky. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Their mom and dad smiled and clapped. They told Lily and Ben that they were very clever and creative. They said that they made their own fireworks with their work and their imagination. They said that they were not helpless, but brave and smart. They hugged Lily and Ben and told them that they loved them very much. Lily and Ben were very happy. They said that they loved their mom and dad too. They said that they had the best fireworks ever.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the slide and the swings. They pretended they were racing drivers and made loud noises with their mouths.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I'm faster than you!" Ben said, as he pushed his red car down the slide.
+
+"No, you're not, I'm faster!" Lila said, as she chased him with her blue car.
+
+They ran and laughed until they saw a big truck parked near the gate. It had a shiny metal box on the back and a long hose that went to the ground. They were curious and wanted to see what it was.
+
+They walked closer and saw a man in a yellow suit and a mask. He was holding a big nozzle that sprayed water on the grass. He looked like a spaceman.
+
+"Hello, what are you doing?" Lila asked.
+
+"Hello, little ones. I'm watering the plants. They need water to grow and be healthy," the man said.
+
+"Wow, that's cool. Can we help you?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But you have to be careful. The water is very cold and the hose is very strong. You have to hold it tight and aim it at the plants, not at people or cars," the man said.
+
+He gave them each a small nozzle and showed them how to use it. They felt the water rush through the hose and shiver in their hands. They sprayed the water on the flowers and the trees and had fun.
+
+They heard a loud noise from the truck. It was the motor. It made the water go fast and cold.
+
+"What's that?" Lila asked.
+
+"That's the motor. It pumps the water from the tank to the hose. It's very powerful and noisy," the man said.
+
+"Can we see it?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But you have to be careful. The motor is very hot and dangerous. You have to stay away from it and not touch it," the man said.
+
+He took them to the truck and opened the metal box. They saw a big metal thing with wires and pipes. It was the motor. It was spinning and humming and smoking.
+
+"Wow, that's cool. How does it work?" Ben asked.
+
+"It works with gas and electricity. It makes the water go fast and cold," the man said.
+
+"Can we touch it?" Lila asked.
+
+"No, you can't. It's very hot and dangerous. You have to stay away from it and not touch it," the man repeated.
+
+He closed the metal box and locked it. He took them back to the hose and gave them their nozzles.
+
+They sprayed the water on the plants again and had fun. They thanked the man for letting them help him. He smiled and waved goodbye.
+
+They went back to their toy cars and played some more. They were happy and wet. They did not notice that the sun was going down and the air was getting cold. They did not notice that their clothes were thin and wet. They did not notice that they started to shiver.
+Mia likes to play with her toys. She has many toys, but her favorite is a pink dragon. The dragon has a long tail, big wings and shiny scales. Mia likes to brush the scales and make them sparkle.
+
+One day, Mia's friend Ben comes to visit. Ben sees the dragon and wants to play with it. He asks Mia, "Can I have your dragon?" Mia says, "No, this is my dragon. You can play with other toys." Ben is sad. He likes the dragon too.
+
+Mia sees that Ben is sad. She thinks for a moment. She loves her dragon, but she also loves her friend. She decides to share her dragon with Ben. She says, "You can play with my dragon, but be careful. The dragon is fragile. You have to be gentle with the scales. They can break easily."
+
+Ben is happy. He says, "Thank you, Mia. You are very kind. I will be careful with the dragon." He takes the dragon and hugs it softly. He brushes the scales and makes them sparkle. He and Mia play together with the dragon and have fun. They are good friends.
+Lily was sick. She had a fever and a sore throat. She felt very hot and very cold at the same time. She did not want to eat or play. She only wanted to sleep.
+
+Her mom was worried. She called the nurse on the phone. She asked the nurse what to do. The nurse said, "Give Lily some water and some medicine. Put a wet cloth on her forehead. Keep her warm and cozy. I will come and see her soon."
+
+Lily heard her mom and the nurse talking. She said in a weak voice, "Mom, I don't like being sick. It hurts. When will I get better?"
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "Don't worry, my sweetie. The nurse will help you. She is very kind and smart. She will make you feel better. You just need to rest and be brave."
+
+Lily nodded and closed her eyes. She felt her mom's kiss on her cheek. She felt the wet cloth on her forehead. She felt a little bit of hope. She hoped the nurse would come soon. She hoped she would get better soon. She hoped she would play and laugh again soon.
+Lily and Tom are best friends. They like to play together every day. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big puzzle. The puzzle has many pieces with different colors and shapes.
+
+One day, Lily and Tom decide to spend the whole afternoon making the puzzle. They sit on the floor and look for the pieces that fit. They talk and laugh as they work.
+
+"Look, I found the corner piece!" Lily says.
+
+"Good job, Lily! You are very clever!" Tom says.
+
+"Thank you, Tom! You are clever too! You found the middle piece!" Lily says.
+
+They keep making the puzzle until they finish. They are very happy and proud. They hug each other and say:
+
+"We did it! We made the puzzle!"
+
+"We are a great team! We love each other!" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, we are! We love each other very much!" Lily says.
+
+They smile and look at their beautiful puzzle. They are best friends. They have a lot of fun. They have a lot of love.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. They saw many flowers and bugs and birds. They also saw a big bottle with a skull on it. Lily was curious and wanted to touch it. Ben was scared and said no.
+
+"Don't touch that, Lily. It is poison. It can make you sick or die," Ben said.
+
+"What is poison?" Lily asked.
+
+"Poison is a bad thing that hurts you. Mama and Papa told us to stay away from it. It is not for playing," Ben said.
+
+Lily nodded, but she still wanted to see what was inside the bottle. She thought Ben was too afraid of everything. She waited until Ben was looking at a butterfly and ran to the bottle. She opened it and smelled it. It smelled bad, like rotten eggs. She made a face and threw the bottle away. But some of the poison splashed on her hand. It burned and hurt a lot. She cried and ran to Ben.
+
+"Ben, Ben, help me! The poison hurt me!" Lily said.
+
+Ben saw Lily's hand and was very worried. He remembered that Mama and Papa had a modern phone that could call for help. He ran to the house and got the phone. He pressed the button that had a red cross on it. He heard a voice and said, "Please help, my sister touched poison and it hurt her hand. We are in the garden."
+
+The voice said, "Don't worry, we are coming. Keep your sister calm and away from the poison. Wash her hand with water if you can."
+
+Ben did what the voice said. He took Lily to the faucet and washed her hand. He hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I love you. You will be okay."
+
+Lily said, "I'm sorry, Ben. I love you. You were right. I should have listened to you."
+
+Soon, a big car with a siren came. Two people in white clothes got out and looked at Lily's hand. They put a bandage on it and gave her some medicine. They said she was brave and lucky. They took her and Ben to the hospital, where Mama and Papa were waiting. They hugged them and said they were proud of them. They also said they were sorry for leaving the poison in the garden. It was for killing weeds, but they forgot to put it away. They said they would be more careful next time.
+
+Lily and Ben learned a lesson that day. They learned that poison is dangerous and not for playing. They learned that they should listen to their parents and each other. They learned that they should always help each other and call for help when they need it. They learned that they were very lucky to have a modern phone and a big car with a siren and people in white clothes who could save them. They learned that they loved each other very much.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is brown and furry. It has a long tail and a loud voice.
+
+"Wow, look at that dog!" Ben says. He wants to pet the dog. He runs to the dog.
+
+"Ben, wait!" Mia says. She is scared of the dog. She hopes the dog is nice. She follows Ben.
+
+The dog sees Ben and Mia. It wags its tail and barks. It is happy to see them. It wants to play.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Ben says. He touches the dog's fur. It is soft and warm.
+
+"Hi, kids!" a man says. He is the dog's owner. He has a leash in his hand. He is alert. He does not want the dog to hurt the kids.
+
+"Is this your dog?" Mia asks. She is shy. She stays behind Ben.
+
+"Yes, this is Rocky. He is a friendly dog. He likes to meet new people. Do you want to play with him?" the man says.
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben says. He smiles. He likes Rocky.
+
+"Okay, but be gentle. And don't pull his ears or his tail. He might not like that," the man says.
+
+"Okay, we will be gentle," Mia says. She is brave. She comes closer to Rocky. She pets his head.
+

+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the jungle. The jungle has many trees and animals. Tom and Mia like to see the monkeys, the birds and the bugs.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia find a big fruit. It is red and round and smells good. They want to eat it. But the fruit is too hard. They need to make it soft.
+
+Tom and Mia find some sticks and dry leaves. They make a fire with them. They put the fruit on the fire. The fire is hot and bright. It burns the sticks and the leaves. It also burns the fruit.
+
+Tom and Mia wait for a little while. Then they take the fruit off the fire. It is soft and warm now. They break it open. It has yellow juice and seeds inside. They taste it. It is sweet and sour and tasty. They like it very much.
+
+Tom and Mia are happy. They share the fruit. They eat and drink and laugh. They thank the jungle for the fruit. They put out the fire. They do not want to hurt the jungle. They love the jungle. The jungle is their home.
+One day, a little mouse named Max was very enthusiastic. He wanted to explore the big garden and find new things. He said goodbye to his mother and ran out of his hole.
+
+"Be careful, Max," his mother said. "Don't go too far and watch out for the cat."
+
+Max nodded, but he did not listen. He was too excited to see the flowers, the bugs, and the birds. He ignored his mother's advice and ran all over the garden.
+
+Soon, he saw a big, shiny thing. It was a ball. Max wanted to play with it. He ran towards it, but he did not see the cat hiding behind a bush. The cat saw Max and licked his lips. He waited for the right moment to pounce.
+
+"Hello, little mouse," the cat said, jumping out of the bush. "Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Max was scared. He realized he was in danger. He wished he had listened to his mother. He tried to run away, but the cat was faster. He blocked Max's way and reached out his paw.
+
+"Please, don't hurt me," Max said, trembling. "I just wanted to have fun."
+
+The cat smiled. He was not really hungry. He just liked to tease the mouse. He decided to let him go, but not before teaching him a lesson.
+
+"Fun is good, but safety is better," the cat said. "You should not ignore your mother. She knows what is best for you. Now, go back to your hole and don't come out again."
+
+Max nodded, thankful for the cat's mercy. He ran back to his hole as fast as he could. He hugged his mother and told her what happened. He said he was sorry for ignoring her and promised to be more careful next time.
+
+His mother forgave him and kissed him. She was glad he was safe. She told him he could still have fun, but he had to be smart and listen to her. Max agreed. He learned his lesson. He was still enthusiastic, but he was also wise.
+Lila and Sam were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were explorers, looking for treasure and secrets. They saw a big hill with some rocks on top. They wondered what was behind the rocks.
+
+"Let's go and see!" Lila said. "Maybe there is a temple there, like in the stories."
+
+"OK, but be careful. The rocks look heavy." Sam said. He followed Lila up the hill.
+
+They reached the top and pushed some of the rocks aside. They saw a hole that led to a dark tunnel. They felt curious and scared at the same time.
+
+"Should we go in?" Lila asked.
+
+"I don't know. It looks dark and spooky." Sam said.
+
+"Come on, don't be afraid. We have a flashlight." Lila said. She took out a small flashlight from her backpack and turned it on. She shone it into the tunnel. "Look, there is something shiny inside. Maybe it's gold or jewels."
+
+Lila wanted to go in and see the shiny thing. Sam was not sure, but he did not want to let Lila go alone. He held her hand and said, "OK, let's go. But only for a little bit. And we have to be quiet and careful."
+
+They walked into the tunnel, holding the flashlight and each other. They felt the walls were cold and wet. They heard some noises, like water dripping and bats squeaking. They kept walking until they saw a big room. In the middle of the room, there was a statue of a man with a funny hat. He was holding a big stick with a snake on it. Around the statue, there were many shiny things, like coins and rings and necklaces.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lila said. "It is a temple. And we found the treasure."
+
+"Shh, don't be loud. Someone might hear us." Sam said. He looked around and saw a door on the other side of the room. He wondered what was behind it.
+
+"Let's go and see what's in there." Lila said. She let go of Sam's hand and ran towards the door. She tried to open it, but it was locked. She saw a key hanging on the wall next to the door. She reached for it, but it was too high for her.
+
+"Help me, Sam. I can't get the key." Lila said.
+
+Sam ran after her and tried to help. He lifted Lila up, but she still could not reach the key. They tried to jump, but they were too short. They tried to use the stick with the snake, but it was too heavy. They could not manage to get the key.
+
+"Maybe we should give up. This door is not for us." Sam said.
+
+"But I want to see what's in there. Maybe there is something more amazing than the treasure." Lila said.
+
+"Or maybe there is something more dangerous than the bats." Sam said.
+
+They heard a loud noise, like thunder. They turned around and saw that the rocks they had moved had fallen back and blocked the tunnel. They were trapped in the temple.
+
+"Uh-oh." Lila said.
+
+"Uh-oh." Sam said.
+Tom wanted to go to a party with his dad. His dad said he had to wear a suit and a tie. Tom did not like suits and ties. He liked to wear his red shirt and blue pants. He said suits and ties were not useful. They were tight and itchy.
+
+His dad said suits and ties were useful for some things. They showed respect and manners. They made people look nice and smart. He said Tom would have fun at the party. He said there would be cake and games and other kids.
+
+Tom was not convinced. He did not want to wear a suit and a tie. He tried to hide his suit and tie under his bed. He tried to run away from his dad. He tried to untie his tie. He made a big fuss.
+
+His dad was patient and firm. He found his suit and tie under the bed. He caught him and carried him to the car. He tied his tie again. He told him to stop fussing. He said he loved him and he was proud of him.
+
+Tom was still unhappy. He pouted and crossed his arms. He did not talk to his dad. He did not look at the party. He did not want to play or eat or smile.
+
+Then he saw a girl. She was wearing a dress and a bow. She had curly hair and big eyes. She smiled at him and said hello. She said she liked his suit and tie. She said they matched her dress and bow. She said they were useful for making friends.
+
+Tom felt a little better. He smiled back and said hello. He said he liked her dress and bow. He said they were pretty and bright. He said they were useful for making friends too.
+
+They started to talk and play. They ate some cake and played some games. They had fun at the party. Tom forgot about his suit and tie. He was glad he wore them. He made a new friend. He thanked his dad. He said he was sorry for fussing. He said he learned something new. He said suits and ties were useful after all.
+Lily and Ben like to play outside when it rains. They put on their boots and coats and run to the park. They find a big puddle and jump in it. They splash and laugh and make waves.
+
+They see a tree with a swing. They run to the swing and take turns. Lily pushes Ben and Ben pushes Lily. They go higher and higher. They feel the wind and the rain on their faces. They are happy.
+
+But then, something bad happens. The rope of the swing breaks. Ben falls off the swing and lands in the puddle. He hurts his arm and his leg. He cries and cries. Lily runs to him and tries to help him. She is scared and sad.
+
+They hear a loud noise. It is a car. The car is coming fast. The driver does not see them. They are in the middle of the road. They try to get up and run, but they are too late. The car hits them. They fly in the air and hang on a branch. They do not move. They do not breathe. They are gone.
+
+The rain stops. The sun comes out. The puddle dries up. The swing is empty. The tree is silent. The car drives away. No one knows what happened. No one cares. It is a bad ending.
+Anna and Ben went to the farm with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals and plants. They liked the cows, the pigs, the chickens and the sheep. They also liked the apples, the pumpkins, the carrots and the corn.
+
+Mom and Dad said they could choose one thing to take home. Anna and Ben thought hard. They liked everything. But they liked corn the most. Corn was bright and yellow and sweet. They wanted to eat corn for dinner.
+
+They walked to the corn field. They saw many corn plants. They had green leaves and brown hair. They had big ears of corn inside. Anna and Ben looked for the best ears of corn. They pulled and twisted and snapped. They each chose one ear of corn. They were happy.
+
+They carried their corn to the car. They thanked the farmer for letting them choose. They said goodbye to the animals and the plants. They drove home with Mom and Dad. They cooked their corn and ate it with butter and salt. It was delicious. They smiled and said corn was their favorite.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were pirates and use the furniture as their ship. Sara was the captain and Ben was the mate.
+
+"Arr, matey, we need to find the treasure!" Sara said, holding a pillow as a map.
+
+"Aye, aye, captain!" Ben said, following her to the couch. "Maybe it's under here!"
+
+They lifted the couch cushions and looked for gold and jewels. They found some coins and a necklace that belonged to their mom.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Sara said, putting the necklace around her neck. "We are rich!"
+
+Ben wanted to try the necklace too. He reached for it and pulled it hard. The necklace snapped and the beads flew everywhere.
+
+"Uh-oh!" Ben said, dropping the broken necklace. "We broke it!"
+
+Sara was angry. She liked the necklace and she did not want to share it. She pushed Ben off the couch and yelled at him.
+
+"You are a bad pirate! You break everything! Go away!"
+
+Ben fell on the floor and started to cry. He did not mean to break the necklace. He just wanted to play.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the mess and the broken necklace. She was not happy.
+
+"What happened here?" she asked, picking up the beads. "Who broke my necklace?"
+
+Sara and Ben looked at each other. They were scared. They did not want to get in trouble.
+
+"It was him!" Sara said, pointing at Ben.
+
+"No, it was her!" Ben said, pointing at Sara.
+
+Their mom sighed. She was patient, but she did not like lying. She knew they both had a part in breaking the necklace.
+
+"Listen, Sara and Ben," she said, sitting them on the couch. "I know you like to play, but you have to be careful with the furniture and the things that are not yours. You have to share and be nice to each other. And you have to tell the truth when you make a mistake. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They felt sorry for breaking the necklace and for lying. They hugged their mom and said they were sorry.
+
+"It's okay," their mom said, smiling. "I forgive you. But next time, please ask me before you use my things. And maybe you can help me fix the necklace later."
+
+Sara and Ben agreed. They learned their lesson. They decided to play something else that did not involve breaking things. They were good pirates after all.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They live in a big city. The city has many cars and buses and people. Sometimes the city is very noisy and dirty.
+
+One day, Lily and Tom go to the park with their moms. The park is green and quiet and clean. Lily and Tom like to play on the swings and the slide and the sandbox. They see many birds and flowers and trees.
+
+"Look, Tom, a blue bird!" Lily says, pointing to the sky.
+
+"Wow, it is so pretty!" Tom says, nodding his head.
+
+They watch the bird fly and sing. They feel happy and calm.
+
+"Can we feed the bird, mom?" Lily asks her mom.
+
+"Sure, honey, but only a little bit. Birds need to eat their own food, too," her mom says, giving her some bread crumbs.
+
+Lily and Tom break the bread into small pieces and throw them on the grass. The bird comes closer and eats the bread. It makes a happy sound.
+
+"Thank you, bird!" Lily and Tom say.
+
+The bird nods its head and flies away.
+
+Lily and Tom learn to be kind and gentle to animals. They also learn to appreciate the beauty of nature. They love the park and the bird. They hope the city can be more like the park.

+
+One day, Mommy said, "Lila, can you set Ben on the rug? I need to get his bottle." Lila nodded and picked up Ben carefully. She walked to the rug and set him down gently. She smiled at him and said, "Hi, Ben. You are a good boy. I love you."
+
+But then, Ben started to cry. He was hungry and wanted his bottle. Lila felt sad. She did not like it when Ben cried. She tried to make him happy. She gave him his teddy bear and his rattle. She said, "Shh, Ben. Don't cry. Mommy is coming soon. Look, here is your teddy. And here is your rattle. They are your friends."
+
+But Ben did not stop crying. He cried louder and louder. Lila felt worried. She did not know what to do. She looked around and saw Mommy. She called, "Mommy, Mommy, Ben is crying. He needs his bottle. Please hurry."
+
+Mommy heard Lila and came to the rug. She saw Ben and Lila. She said, "Thank you, Lila, for setting Ben on the rug. You are a good sister. I'm sorry I took so long. Here is his bottle.

+
+In the corner of the garage, there was a hairy spider. It saw the jar of butter. It was hungry. It crawled to the jar and ate the butter. It liked the butter very much. It ate and ate until it was full. Then it felt sick. It had eaten too much butter. It rolled over and died. The end.
+Sara was a jolly girl who liked to play outside. She had a big yard with many flowers and trees. She also had a toy house where she kept her dolls and books.
+
+One day, Sara saw a rainbow in the sky. It was very bright and had many colors. Sara wanted to see it closer. She thought maybe there was a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. She put on her boots and coat and ran outside.
+
+She followed the rainbow across the yard, but it seemed to move away from her. She ran faster and faster, but she could not catch it. She did not see where she was going. She tripped over a rock and fell down. She scraped her knee and elbow and started to cry.
+
+She heard a voice behind her. It was her dog, Spot. Spot was a good friend who always stayed with her. Spot licked her face and wagged his tail. He wanted to make her feel better. He also saw the rainbow and wanted to play with it.
+
+Spot showed Sara how to crawl on the ground. He said it was fun and easy. He said they could pretend they were lions or bears or worms. Sara stopped crying and smiled. She crawled with Spot and made funny noises. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Sara learned that the rainbow was not something she could touch or have. It was only a pretty thing to look at. She also learned that she should be careful where she ran and not chase things that were too far. She was happy that she had Spot, who was always there for her.

+
+One day, she saw a mouse who was sad. He had a hurt leg and could not run. He was hungry and scared. Lily felt sorry for him and flew down to help. "Hello, little mouse. Why are you sad?" she asked.
+
+"I have a hurt leg and I can't find food. I wish I had wings like you, so I could fly away from danger," the mouse said.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She had an idea. "I can lend you one of my wings, so you can fly with me. Then you can find food and be safe. But you have to promise to give it back when your leg is better," she said.
+
+The mouse was surprised and grateful. He agreed to the promise. Lily plucked one of her wings and gave it to the mouse. He held it with his good leg and flapped it hard. He felt a breeze lift him up. He was flying!
+
+Lily and the mouse flew together and found some sweet berries. They ate and laughed and had fun. Lily was happy to share her wing and help the mouse. The mouse was happy to have a friend and a wing.
+
+After a while, the mouse's leg healed. He thanked Lily for her kindness and gave back her wing. Lily put it back on her body and felt whole again. She hugged the mouse and said goodbye. She flew away, singing a happy song.
+
+The mouse watched her go and smiled. He learned that lending is a good thing to do. He also learned that wings are not the only way to fly. Friendship is another way. He was happy and wise.

+
+"Wow, that's amazing!" their mom said. "Where did it come from?"
+
+"I don't know," their dad said. "Maybe it was from a pirate ship that sank a long time ago."
+
+Tom and Mia were very excited. They wondered if there were more coins like that on the shore. They decided to look for them.
+
+They walked along the shore, digging and searching in the sand. They found some more shells and rocks, but no more coins. They were about to give up, when they saw something else shiny in the water.
+
+They ran to the water and saw a big, shiny, metal box. It had a lock on it, but it was broken. They opened the box and saw lots of coins and jewels inside. They were gold and silver and red and blue and green. They sparkled in the sun.

She told her that she was a spoiled girl who needed to learn to be nice and share. She told her that she could not get everything she wanted by being mean and selfish. She told her that she had to say sorry to the boy and the other kids. She told her that she had to behave better or she would not get any more toys, clothes, or candies.
+
+Lily felt ashamed and sorry. She realized that her mom was right. She did not like being a spoiled girl. She wanted to be a good girl. She said sorry to her mom and asked her to help her say sorry to the boy and the other kids. She promised to be nice and share from then on.

Sara feels alone and unhappy. She has no one to dance with. She has no one to teach. She has no one to love.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the bathroom. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the tiles. Sometimes they pretended they were racing or chasing each other.
+
+One day, Lily had a new idea. She said to Ben, "Let's spin the cars in the drain. It will be fun to see them go round and round." Ben was not sure. He said, "But what if they get stuck or lost? The drain is dark and deep." Lily said, "Don't be scared. We can get them out with a stick. Come on, it will be clever."
+
+Lily and Ben took turns to spin their cars in the drain. They laughed as they watched them whirl and splash. But then, something bad happened. Lily's car got stuck in the drain. She tried to pull it out with a stick, but it was too far. She started to cry. She said, "Oh no, my car is gone. It was my favorite. What will I do?"
+
+Ben felt sorry for Lily. He said, "Don't cry, Lily. I have an idea. Maybe we can get help from Mom. She is clever and kind. She will know what to do." Lily nodded. She said, "Okay, let's go find Mom. Maybe she can save my car."
+
+Lily and Ben ran to Mom and told her what happened. Mom was not angry, but she was not happy either. She said, "Lily and Ben, you should not play with the drain. It is dangerous and dirty. You could hurt yourself or lose your toys. You should be careful and respectful of your things." She took them back to the bathroom and used a plunger to get Lily's car out of the drain. She said, "Here you go, Lily. Your car is safe and sound. But next time, please don't spin it in the drain. Find another way to have fun with your toys."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged Mom and thanked her. They said, "We're sorry, Mom. We won't do it again. We learned our lesson. Spinning cars in the drain is not clever or fun. It is silly and risky. We will play with our toys in a better way." Mom smiled and said, "That's good, my loves. I'm glad you understand. Now go and enjoy your toys, but be careful and respectful." Lily and Ben nodded and went to play with their cars in a better way. They were happy and grateful. They learned to be more responsible and wise.
+Sam and Lily are twins who live on a big ranch with many animals. They like to help their mom and dad with the chores, but sometimes they make a big mess. One day, they want to weigh the baby pigs, because they are so cute and fat.
+
+They go to the barn and find a big scale. They try to lift a pig, but it is too heavy and wiggly. They drop it on the floor and it runs away. They chase it, but it makes a lot of noise and scares the other pigs. The pigs run out of the barn and into the mud.
+
+"Sam, Lily, what are you doing?" their mom asks, coming out of the house. She sees the pigs in the mud and the twins covered in dirt. "You made a big mess! You have to put the pigs back in the barn and clean up!"
+
+"Sorry, mom," Sam and Lily say. "We just wanted to weigh the pigs. They are so cute and fat."
+
+"I know, but you have to be careful and gentle with the animals. And you have to ask before you use the scale. It is not a toy. Come on, let's go and get the pigs. Then you have to take a bath and change your clothes."
+
+Sam and Lily nod and follow their mom. They help her catch the pigs and put them back in the barn. They say sorry to the pigs and pet them. Then they go to the house and take a bath and change their clothes. They promise to be more careful next time. They still think the pigs are cute and fat, but they also think they are messy and loud.

+
+One day, Tim goes to the park with his mom. He sees other kids playing sport. He wants to play with them. He runs to them with his ball. He says hello.
+
+But the other kids are mean. They do not want to play with Tim. They laugh at his ball. They say it is ugly and old. They take his ball from him. They throw it far away. They run away.
+
+Tim is sad. He cries. He wants his ball back. He looks for his ball. He cannot find it. His mom comes to him. She hugs him. She says she is sorry.
+
+Tim and his mom go home. Tim does not like sport anymore. He does not have his ball. He is very sad. The end.
+Tom was a boy who liked to help his dad. His dad had a big knife that he used to cut wood and make things. Tom wanted to use the knife too, but his dad said no. He said the knife was sharp and dangerous, and Tom was too small.
+
+One day, Tom saw the knife on the table. His dad was not in the room. Tom thought he could use the knife for a little bit, and his dad would not know. He took the knife and went outside. He saw a big tree with a hole in it. He thought he could make the hole bigger with the knife, and maybe find some animals inside.
+
+He started to cut the tree with the knife, but the knife was too hard to hold. It slipped from his hand and hit his leg. Tom felt a lot of pain and saw blood. He cried and dropped the knife. He ran back to the house, looking for his dad.
+
+His dad heard him cry and came to see what was wrong. He saw Tom's leg and the knife on the ground. He was very angry and scared. He took Tom to the bathroom and cleaned his wound. He put a bandage on it and gave him a hug. He said, "Tom, you were very stupid to use the knife. You could have hurt yourself badly. The knife is not a toy. You have to listen to me and never touch it again. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "I'm sorry, dad. I wanted to help you and make something. I didn't mean to hurt myself." He felt sorry and ashamed. He said, "Can you forgive me, dad?"
+
+His dad said, "Of course, I forgive you, Tom. I love you very much. But you have to be careful and obey me. The knife is not for you. It is for me to use and restore things. Do you know what restore means?"
+
+Tom said, "No, dad. What does it mean?"
+
+His dad said, "It means to make something old or broken look new or better. Like when I fix the chair or the fence. I use the knife to cut and shape the wood. That is how I restore them. Do you want to help me restore things?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, dad. I want to help you. But not with the knife. With something else. Maybe a hammer or a screwdriver. Can I use those?"
+
+His dad said, "Maybe when you are older and more careful. For now, you can use a paintbrush or a cloth. You can help me paint or polish the things I restore. How does that sound?"
+
+Tom said, "That sounds good, dad. Thank you for forgiving me and teaching me. I love you too."
+
+His dad said, "You're welcome, Tom. Now let's go and have some cookies. You need to rest your leg and feel better." He picked up Tom and carried him to the kitchen. He threw away the knife and decided to buy a new one with a lock. He did not want Tom to be stupid again.

You bought a guitar you cannot play. You were very naughty and very foolish. You have to return the guitar and say sorry. You have to learn to be happy with what you have. You have to listen to your mom and dad. They know what is best for you."
+
+Tommy felt very bad. He knew his mom was right. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was wrong. I don't want this big guitar. I want my small guitar. I want to play with you and dad. I want to be good and smart."
+
+His mom hugged him. She said, "I forgive you, Tommy. I love you. But you have to promise me you will never do this again. You have to increase your respect and your patience.

+
+They go near the tree and look inside. They see something shiny and sticky. It is honey!
+
+"Wow, honey!" Tom says. "I love honey. Let's take some and eat it."

+He reaches his hand inside the hole. But he feels a sting. He pulls his hand out. It is red and swollen. He cries.
+

+
+Sue is scared. She runs away from the tree. She sees a lady with a dog. She tells the lady what happened.
+
+"Help, help! My friend is hurt. He touched the honey in the tree. The bees bit him."
+
+The lady is kind. She goes to Tom and helps him. She puts some ice on his hand. She tells him to be calm.
+
+"Shh, shh, shh. It's okay. The ice will make it better. But you should not touch the honey in the tree. It belongs to the bees. They work hard to make it. They need it for their food. They do not like it when someone takes it. They will protect it. They will bite you. You should ask before you take something that is not yours."
+
+Tom is sorry. He learns his lesson. He says thank you to the lady. He says sorry to the bees. He says sorry to Sue.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sue. I was greedy. I wanted the honey. I did not think. I did not ask. I was wrong. Will you forgive me?"
+
+Sue is happy. She forgives Tom. She hugs him.
+
+"I forgive you, Tom. You are my friend. I'm glad you are okay. But next time, be careful. And be clean. Your hand is sticky. You need to wash it."

+
+"Not yet, sweetie. We have to finish this row. Then we can have a snack and a nap," Mom says.
+
+"A nap? I do not want a nap. I want to play," Ben says.
+
+"Naps are good for you, too. They help you grow and rest. You will feel better after a nap," Dad says.
+
+Lily and Ben sigh. They keep working. They hope the work will end soon. They do not like naps, but they like snacks. They wonder what Mom and Dad will give them. Maybe cookies, or fruit, or cheese.

They are good twins.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play together. One day, they found a big box in the garage. They thought it was a good place to hide and pretend.
+
+"Let's be pirates and sail the seas!" Ben said.
+
+"Okay, but I want to be the captain!" Sara said.
+
+They climbed into the box and used a broom as a mast. They put a blanket over the box to make a sail. They pretended to see sharks and islands and treasure.
+
+"Look, there's a ship! Let's attack it and take their gold!" Ben shouted.
+
+"Repeat, repeat, what did you say?" Sara asked. She could not hear him well under the blanket.
+

+
+"Oh, okay. But be careful, they might have cannons!" Sara said.
+
+They made loud noises and waved their arms. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Soon, their mom came to the garage. She saw the box moving and heard the noises. She lifted the blanket and smiled.
+
+"What are you two doing in there?" she asked.
+
+"We're pirates, mom! We're sailing the seas and fighting other ships!" Ben said.
+
+"That sounds very exciting. But it's time for lunch now. Come out of the box and wash your hands," mom said.
+
+"Can we play pirates again after lunch?" Sara asked.
+
+"Sure, if you want to. But first, you have to put the box and the broom and the blanket back where you found them. And you have to say thank you to dad for giving you the box. He was very thoughtful to save it for you," mom said.
+
+"Okay, mom. Thank you, dad!" Sara and Ben said.
+
+They got out of the box and hugged their mom. They ran to the kitchen to eat their lunch. They were happy and hungry. They liked to play pirates, but they also liked to eat.
+Sara and her mom went to the grocery store to buy some food. Sara liked to look at all the different things in the store. She saw some apples, some bread, some cheese, and some cookies. She wanted to buy some cookies, but her mom said no.
+
+"Why not?" Sara asked.
+
+"Because we have enough cookies at home, and we need to buy healthy food first," her mom said.
+
+Sara was not happy. She wanted to have some cookies now. She saw a big jar of cookies on a high shelf. She thought maybe she could reach it if she climbed on a cart. She waited until her mom was not looking, and then she tried to climb on the cart.
+
+But the cart was not steady. It moved and wobbled, and Sara lost her balance. She fell off the cart and knocked down the jar of cookies. The jar broke and the cookies scattered on the floor. Sara hurt her knee and started to cry.
+
+Her mom heard the noise and ran to see what happened. She saw Sara on the floor, surrounded by broken glass and cookies. She was angry and worried.
+
+"Sara, what did you do?" she asked.
+
+"I wanted some cookies," Sara said, sobbing.
+
+"Sara, you were very naughty. You did not listen to me, and you made a big mess. You could have hurt yourself or someone else. You need to examine your choices and think before you act. Do you understand?" her mom said.
+
+Sara nodded. She felt sorry for what she did. She said sorry to her mom and to the store lady who came to clean up the mess. She learned that she should obey her mom and not be greedy.
+
+Her mom hugged her and kissed her knee. She said she forgave her, but she had to pay for the jar and the cookies. She took some money from her purse and gave it to the store lady.
+
+"Thank you for being honest and graceful," the store lady said. "I hope you feel better soon."
+
+Sara thanked the store lady and smiled. She felt better, but she still did not get any cookies. She decided that next time, she would be more patient and respectful. She held her mom's hand and walked out of the store.
+Lily and Max were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Max was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then looked for Max. She saw a big bush that was shaking a little. She thought Max was hiding there.
+
+She ran to the bush and shouted, "I found you, Max!" But when she pulled the leaves apart, she did not see Max. She saw a small kitten that was scared and hungry. The kitten meowed and rubbed against Lily's leg.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asked the kitten. "Where is your mommy?" The kitten did not answer. It just looked at Lily with big eyes. Lily felt sorry for the kitten. She decided to take it home and give it some food and water. She picked up the kitten and hugged it.
+
+"Here, kitty, kitty, you can come with me. I will take care of you. You are my new friend," Lily said.
+
+Meanwhile, Max was hiding behind a tree. He saw Lily find the kitten and leave the park. He was confused and angry. He thought Lily cheated and did not look for him. He thought Lily did not want to play with him anymore. He felt lonely and sad.
+
+He came out of his hiding spot and shouted, "Lily, where are you? That's not fair! You did not reveal yourself! You did not say you found me! You did not say you were leaving!"
+
+But Lily did not hear him. She was already far away with the kitten. Max started to cry. He wished he had a friend like the kitten.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be selfish and jealous of others. Be happy for their good fortune and share your own. You never know when you might find a new friend or a treat. And always be alert and pay attention to your surroundings. You might miss something important or fun.

+
+Mia heard Ben crying and put down her book. She ran to him and hugged him. "What happened, Ben?" she asked.
+
+"I wanted to play with you, but I fell down and hurt my knee," Ben sobbed.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. You should be careful when you try to climb up the sofa. It's too high for you. Why don't you crawl to the toy box and pick a toy to play with? I'll read you a story later," Mia said.
+
+Ben nodded and wiped his tears. He crawled to the toy box and found a train. He liked trains. He played with the train on the floor and made choo-choo sounds. He felt better.
+
+Mia smiled and watched him. She was proud of her little brother. He was brave and he learned from his mistake. She picked up her book and waited for him to finish playing. Then she read him a story about a train that went on an adventure.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be careful when you try new things. If you fall down and hurt yourself, don't give up. Try something else that you can do. And always listen to your big sister. She loves you and wants to help you.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their toys. They liked to pretend they were lions and tigers and make loud roars. They had fun chasing each other and hiding behind the trees and swings.
+
+But then they heard a big noise from the other side of the park. It was not a roar, it was a honk. They saw a big truck with a lot of boxes on it. The truck was making the noise to tell the cars to move. Lily and Ben did not like the noise. It hurt their ears and scared them.
+
+They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench with a book. She saw them and gave them a hug. She said, "Don't worry, it's just a truck. It will go away soon. Do you want some juice and cookies? I have some in my bag. They are sweet and yummy."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and smiled. They liked juice and cookies. They followed their mom to the bench and sat down. She gave them each a cup and a plate. They drank and ate and felt better. The noise was still there, but it was not so bad now. They said, "Thank you, mom. You are sweet too."
+
+Mom kissed them and said, "You're welcome, my little lions. Do you want to play some more?" Lily and Ben said, "Yes, please." They finished their juice and cookies and ran back to the park. They roared again and had more fun. They were happy.
+Tommy was very excite to go to the office with his dad. He wanted to see what his dad did all day. He put on his best shirt and shoes and got in the car with his dad.
+
+When they got to the office, his dad showed him his desk and his computer. He also introduced him to some of his friends who worked there. They smiled and said hello to Tommy. Tommy liked them.
+
+Then his dad took him to a big room with a lot of chairs and a big screen. He said they had to go to a meeting. Tommy sat next to his dad and tried to be quiet. He saw some pictures and words on the screen, but he did not understand them. He got bored.
+
+He saw a red button on the table. He wondered what it did. He reached for it and pushed it. Suddenly, a loud alarm went off. Everyone in the room looked at Tommy. His dad looked angry. He said, "Tommy, what did you do?"
+
+Tommy felt scared. He did not mean to make the alarm go off. He said, "I'm sorry, dad. I just wanted to see what the button did."
+
+His dad sighed and said, "It's okay, Tommy. It was an accident. But you have to be careful in the office. There are some things you can't touch. They are not toys. They are for work."
+
+He hugged Tommy and said, "I love you, buddy. But maybe next time we can do something else together. Something more fun for you."
+
+Tommy nodded and said, "I love you too, dad. But can we go home now? The alarm is too harsh. It hurts my ears."

+
+But Sam and Ben do not listen. They wait until Mom is busy and they take the fish out of the tank. They put the fish in a bag and run to the car.

+
+Ben looked at the worm and then at the cookie. He wanted the cookie, but he did not want the worm. He was scared of the worm, but he was also curious. He wondered what the worm felt like. He wondered if the worm would bite him. He wondered if the worm would like him.
+
+He took a deep breath and reached out his hand. He touched the worm. It was cold and wet and soft. It tickled his finger. It did not bite him. It did not hurt him. It just wiggled.
+
+He touched the worm and he did not cry. He touched the worm and he did not run. He touched the worm and he smiled.

+
+Lily said, "Really? Can I hear it roar?"
+
+Ben said, "Sure, you can. But first, you have to let me play with your dragon. That is fair."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She wanted to hear the lion roar, but she did not want to give up her dragon. She said, "How about we play with both? You can play with my dragon for a little bit, and I can play with your book for a little bit. Then we can switch."
+
+Ben said, "That sounds good to me. I think that is a good idea. I recommend we do that."

+
+Mom claps and says, "Very good, Anna and Ben! You are very smart. Do you want to make a jingle bell necklace with the pine cone and the jingle bell?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod and say, "Yes, please!"

+
+Tom and Sam feel bad. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We will share and be nice. Can we have another car?"
+
+Mom says, "No, boys. You can't have another car. You have to learn your lesson. You have to play with what you have. Maybe you can find something else to play with in the west room. There are some books and puzzles there."

+"What is pray?" Lily asked.
+
+"Pray is when you talk to God. You can say thank you, or ask for help, or say sorry, or anything you want," her mom said.
+
+"Can we pray now?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. We can pray anytime, anywhere. What do you want to pray for?" her mom asked.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. Then she said, "I want to pray for the traffic to go away. And for us to go to the park. And for us to have fun. And for God to love us."
+
+Her mom smiled. She said, "That is a very good prayer, honey. I will pray with you."
+
+They closed their eyes. They held hands. They prayed together. Then they opened their eyes.
+
+The traffic started to move. The cars and trucks and buses made way for them. They drove to the park. They had fun. They felt God's love. They were happy.
+Sara likes to mix things. She has a big bowl and a spoon. She puts flour, sugar, eggs and milk in the bowl. She mixes and mixes. She wants to make a cake for Mommy.
+
+Mommy is in her bed. She is very tired. She works hard every day. Sara wants to make her happy. She puts the bowl in the oven. She sets the timer. She waits and waits.
+
+The timer rings. Sara takes the bowl out of the oven. She smells the cake. It smells good. She puts some icing on the cake. She writes "I love you Mommy" with sprinkles. She is very proud.
+
+She carries the cake to Mommy's room. She opens the door. She sees Mommy sleeping. She puts the cake on the table. She says "Mommy, Mommy, wake up! I have a surprise for you!"
+
+Mommy opens her eyes. She sees Sara and the cake. She smiles. She hugs Sara. She says "Thank you, Sara. You are so kind. You made me a cake. I love you too, Sara. You are the best daughter ever."
+Lily and Sam were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a colorful doll with long hair and a dress. Sam had a big truck with wheels and a horn. They were having fun, but they also wanted to share.
+
+"Can I play with your doll?" Sam asked Lily.
+
+"OK, but only for a little bit. Then you give it back to me," Lily said.
+
+"Can I play with your truck?" Lily asked Sam.
+
+"OK, but only for a little bit. Then you give it back to me," Sam said.
+
+They swapped their toys and tried them out. Lily made the truck go vroom vroom and honk honk. Sam brushed the doll's hair and sang to her. They were happy, but they also missed their own toys.
+
+"I want my doll back," Lily said.
+
+"I want my truck back," Sam said.
+
+They reached for their toys, but they both held on tight. They pulled and pulled, but neither of them would let go. They started to cry and yell.
+
+"Give me my doll!" Lily demanded.
+
+"Give me my truck!" Sam demanded.
+
+They were loud and angry, and they made a mess. Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom asked.
+
+"They took my toy!" Lily and Sam said at the same time.
+
+Mom looked at them and shook her head. She was not happy.
+
+"You both need to learn to share and be nice. If you can't play with each other's toys, then you can't play with any toys. Give me the doll and the truck," Mom said.
+
+She took the toys and put them on a high shelf. Lily and Sam looked at their toys and felt sad. They realized they had been silly and mean.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I like your doll, but I like you more," Sam said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam. I like your truck, but I like you more," Lily said.
+
+They hugged and said they were sorry to Mom. Mom smiled and gave them a kiss.
+
+"OK, I forgive you. But you have to promise to share and be nice from now on. If you do, you can have your toys back later. Now, how about some hot chocolate?" Mom said.
+
+Lily and Sam nodded and smiled. They liked hot chocolate, but they liked each other more. They followed Mom to the kitchen and held hands. They were happy again.
+Lily was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new things. She always had many questions and ideas in her head. She loved to go to school and learn from her teacher, Miss Rose. But sometimes, she was too curious and did not follow the rules.
+
+One day, Miss Rose was teaching the class about animals. She drew different animals on the blackboard and asked the children to name them. Lily knew all the animals and raised her hand eagerly. She wanted to impress Miss Rose and her friends.
+
+But when Miss Rose called on her, Lily did not say the name of the animal. Instead, she asked, "Why do elephants have big ears? Can they fly with them?" Miss Rose smiled and said, "That's a good question, Lily, but we are not talking about that right now. Please answer the question I asked you."
+
+Lily felt embarrassed and angry. She did not like to be told what to do. She thought Miss Rose was boring and did not care about her questions. She decided to show Miss Rose that she was smarter and more fun than her. She waited for Miss Rose to turn her back and then grabbed a piece of chalk. She quickly drew a big pair of wings on the elephant on the blackboard and wrote, "Look, I can fly!"
+
+The other children saw what Lily did and started to laugh. Miss Rose heard the noise and turned around. She saw the elephant with wings and the words on the blackboard. She was shocked and angry. She knew it was Lily who did it. She said in a stern voice, "Lily, what have you done? This is very rude and disrespectful. You have to apologize and erase what you wrote. And as a punishment, you have to stay in the classroom during recess and write 'I will not draw on the blackboard' ten times."
+
+Lily felt scared and sorry. She realized she had made a big mistake. She did not mean to hurt Miss Rose's feelings or make fun of her lesson. She just wanted to be adventurous and creative. She said in a small voice, "I'm sorry, Miss Rose. I won't do it again. Please don't punish me."
+
+Miss Rose looked at Lily and saw that she was sincere. She said, "I appreciate your apology, Lily, but you still have to face the consequences of your actions. You have to learn to respect the rules and the teacher. You can be adventurous and creative, but not in a way that disrupts the class or damages the blackboard. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Miss Rose. I understand. I will do what you say." She took the eraser and wiped the blackboard clean. Then she took a piece of paper and a pencil and started to write her punishment. She felt sad and bored. She wished she could go outside and play with her friends. She learned a hard lesson that day. She learned that being adventurous can be fun, but it can also get you in trouble. She decided to be more careful and respectful next time.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big machine in the park. It has many buttons and lights.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom says. "What does it do?"
+
+"I don't know," Mia says. "Maybe it makes sounds or pictures."
+
+Tom wants to try the machine. He pushes a button. The machine makes a loud beep. Tom laughs.
+
+"Let me try!" Mia says. She pushes another button. The machine makes a long hiss. Mia smiles.
+
+They push more buttons. The machine makes more sounds. They have fun.
+
+But then, a man comes. He is angry. He wears a hat and a coat. He has a badge.
+
+"Hey, you two!" he says. "Stop playing with the machine! It is not a toy! It is a very important machine! It measures the air and the weather!"
+
+Tom and Mia are scared. They did not know the machine was important. They did not want to break it.
+
+"Sorry, mister," Tom says. "We did not know. We were just curious."
+
+"Curious?" the man says. "You could have damaged the machine! It is very expensive and delicate! You should not touch things that are not yours!"
+
+The man is very loud. He makes Tom and Mia cry.
+
+"Please, don't be mad," Mia says. "We won't do it again. We will go away."
+
+The man sighs. He sees that Tom and Mia are sorry. He is not so angry anymore. He remembers that he was also curious when he was a child.
+
+"Okay, okay," he says. "I won't be mad. But you have to promise me something. Next time, if you see something you don't know, don't touch it. Ask someone first. Or better yet, suggest a different game. There are many other things you can play with in the park. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Mia nod. They understand. They promise to be careful. They suggest to play with the swings and the slide. The man smiles. He lets them go. He fixes the machine. He hopes it still works. He hopes the weather is good.
+Sara was a lonely girl. She had no friends to play with at school. She liked to draw and read, but the other kids did not. They liked to run and shout and push. Sara did not like that.
+
+One day, Sara saw a new boy in her class. His name was Ben. He had a tray with his lunch on it. He looked around for a place to sit, but no one wanted him to sit with them. Sara felt sorry for him. She waved at him and said, "Hi, Ben. Do you want to sit with me?"
+
+Ben smiled and walked over to Sara. He put his tray next to hers and said, "Thank you, Sara. You are very kind. Do you mind if I share some of my cookies with you?"
+
+Sara shook her head and said, "No, I don't mind. I like cookies. Do you like to draw and read?"
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Yes, I do. I have a book in my backpack. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Sara said, "Yes, please. I have some crayons in my bag. Do you want to use them?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, thank you. You are very nice. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Sara smiled and said, "Yes, I do. You are very nice, too. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Ben and Sara hugged and said, "Yes, we do. We are friends."
+
+Sara and Ben ate their lunch and talked and laughed. They showed each other their books and drawings. They had a lot in common. They were not lonely anymore. They were happy.
+Tom and Anna like to cook with Mom. Mom has a big book with many recipes. She shows them how to make a cake. They need eggs, flour, sugar, butter and milk.
+
+"Can I crack the eggs?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful not to make a mess," Mom says.
+
+"I want to stir the flour and sugar," Anna says.
+
+"OK, but don't spill them on the floor," Mom says.
+
+They mix everything in a big bowl. Then they pour the batter in a pan. Mom puts the pan in the oven.
+
+"Now we have to wait for the cake to bake," Mom says.
+
+They sit on the couch and read a story. They smell something yummy. The cake is ready. Mom takes it out of the oven and lets it cool.
+
+"Can we eat it now?" Tom asks.
+
+"Not yet, we have to make the frosting," Mom says.
+
+She takes another bowl and puts some cream cheese, butter and lemon juice in it. She whips them with a fork.
+
+"Can I taste it?" Anna asks.
+
+"Sure, but it might be sour," Mom says.
+
+Anna dips her finger in the bowl and licks it. She makes a funny face.
+
+"Yuck, it is sour!" she says.
+
+"That's OK, we will add some sugar to make it sweet," Mom says.
+
+She adds some sugar and stirs again. She spreads the frosting on the cake. She cuts a slice for each of them.
+
+"Here you go, enjoy your cake," she says.
+
+They take a bite and smile.
+
+"Mmm, it is delicious!" they say.
+
+They thank Mom for teaching them how to cook. They hug her and give her a kiss. They are happy.
+Ben and Lily were very happy. They were going to the theater with Mom and Dad. The theater was very big and old. Mom said it was ancient. Ben and Lily did not know what ancient meant, but they liked the theater. It had many seats and a big stage.
+
+They sat in their seats and waited for the show to start. The show was about a princess and a dragon. Ben and Lily liked princesses and dragons. They watched the show and clapped their hands. The princess was very pretty and the dragon was very scary.
+
+But then something strange happened. The dragon changed. It became smaller and smaller. It turned into a frog. The princess was surprised and laughed. She picked up the frog and kissed it. The frog changed again. It became a prince. The prince was very handsome and happy. He hugged the princess and thanked her. They lived happily ever after.
+
+Ben and Lily liked the show very much. They asked Mom and Dad how the dragon changed. Mom and Dad said it was magic. Ben and Lily wanted to see more magic. They asked Mom and Dad if they could go to the theater again. Mom and Dad smiled and said yes. Ben and Lily were very happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and look for bugs. Tom had a big shovel and Lily had a small one.
+
+"Look, Tom, I found a worm!" Lily said, holding up a long, wiggly thing.
+
+"Wow, that's a big worm!" Tom said. "Can I see?"
+
+Lily gave him the worm and he put it in his hand. It tickled his palm.
+
+"Let's put it back in the hole," Lily said. "Maybe it has a family."
+
+They put the worm back in the hole and covered it with dirt. Then they dug another hole.
+
+"Hey, what's this?" Tom said, pulling out something orange and pointy.
+
+"It looks like a carrot!" Lily said. "Do you think it's a magic carrot?"
+
+"Maybe," Tom said. "Let's guess what it can do."
+
+"I guess it can make us fly!" Lily said.
+
+"I guess it can make us invisible!" Tom said.
+
+"I guess it can make us powerful!" Lily said.
+
+They took turns holding the carrot and pretending to have different powers. They flew around the garden, hid behind the bushes, and lifted heavy rocks.
+
+They had so much fun with the carrot that they didn't notice their mom calling them for lunch.
+
+"Tom, Lily, come inside!" their mom said. "It's time to eat!"
+
+They ran inside, still holding the carrot.
+
+"Look, mom, we found a magic carrot!" they said.
+
+"A magic carrot?" their mom said. "That's very nice. But you know what? Carrots are also good for eating. They make your eyes bright and your teeth strong. Do you want to share it with me?"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They liked their mom and they liked carrots. They nodded and gave her the carrot.
+
+"Thank you, sweeties," their mom said. "You are very generous. Let's wash it and cut it into pieces. Then we can all enjoy it together."
+
+They washed the carrot and cut it into pieces. They ate it with their sandwiches and milk. It was crunchy and sweet.
+
+They smiled at each other. They still felt powerful, even without the magic carrot. They had each other, and that was the best magic of all.
+Lily liked to dive in the pool. She was a good swimmer and she felt independent in the water. She could swim fast and do flips and jumps. She had fun with her friends and her teacher.
+
+One day, after swimming, Lily was very hungry. She went to the cafeteria with her friends and saw a big pot of soup. It smelled good and it was hot. Lily wanted some soup, but she did not want to wait in line. She was independent, she thought, and she could get her own soup.
+
+She grabbed a bowl and a spoon and walked to the pot. She reached for the ladle, but it was too high for her. She stretched and stretched, but she could not reach it. She decided to dive for it. She climbed on a chair and jumped into the pot.
+
+Splash! Lily was in the soup. It was hot and wet and sticky. She screamed and cried. Her friends and her teacher ran to help her. They pulled her out of the pot and wrapped her in a towel. They were worried and angry.
+
+"Lily, what did you do?" her teacher asked. "Why did you dive into the soup?"
+
+"I wanted some soup," Lily said. "I was independent."
+
+"No, Lily, you were not independent. You were foolish and dangerous. You could have burned yourself or spilled the soup on someone else. You have to wait your turn and ask for help when you need it. That is being independent and smart."
+
+Lily felt ashamed and sorry. She realized she had made a big mistake. She apologized to her teacher and her friends. She learned her lesson. She did not dive into the soup again.
+Lily and Sam were friends who liked to play with chalk. They drew pictures and words on the sidewalk outside their houses. One day, a new boy arrived in their street. His name was Ben and he had a big bag of chalk.
+
+"Hi, can we play with you?" Lily asked Ben.
+
+"Sure, but you have to follow my rules," Ben said. "I am the boss of the chalk. You can only use the colors I give you and you have to draw what I say."
+
+Lily and Sam felt uncomfortable. They did not like Ben's rules. They wanted to use their own colors and draw their own things. But they did not want to be rude, so they agreed.
+
+Ben gave Lily a yellow chalk and Sam a brown chalk. He told them to draw a sun and a tree. Lily and Sam did not like these colors. They wanted to use blue and green and pink and purple. They also wanted to draw other things, like flowers and animals and stars.
+
+"Can we use different colors and draw different things?" Lily asked Ben.
+
+"No, you can't. You have to do what I say. I am the boss of the chalk," Ben said.
+
+Lily and Sam felt unhappy. They did not have fun playing with Ben. They decided to leave and play with their own chalk.
+
+"Bye, Ben. We don't want to play with you anymore. You are not a good friend. You are bossy and mean," Lily said.
+
+Sam nodded and followed Lily. They went to their own sidewalk and used their own chalk. They drew what they wanted and used all the colors. They had fun and smiled.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be bossy and mean to your friends. Let them use their own colors and draw their own things. Share and be kind. That's how you make good friends.
+Tom and Anna were playing with their blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and bridges and houses with their blocks. Sometimes they would count how many blocks they had, or how high their towers were.
+
+"Look, Anna, I have ten blocks in my tower!" Tom said, holding up his fingers.
+
+"That's good, Tom. I have nine blocks in my bridge. Can you count them with me?" Anna asked, pointing to her blocks.
+
+They started to count together. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine!"
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise from outside. It was a siren. They saw a big red truck with a flashing light drive past their window. It was a fire truck.
+
+"What's that, Tom?" Anna asked, feeling scared.
+
+"That's a fire truck, Anna. It goes to help people when there is a fire. It's an emergency," Tom explained.
+
+"An emergency? What's that?" Anna wondered.
+
+"An emergency is when something bad happens and people need help fast. Like when there is a fire, or someone is hurt, or lost, or stuck. The fire truck has water and tools and brave people to help," Tom said.
+
+"Oh, I see. Do you think there is a fire somewhere?" Anna asked.
+
+"I don't know, Anna. Maybe. I hope everyone is okay," Tom said.
+
+They looked out the window again. It was a gloomy day. The sky was gray and the clouds were dark. They felt sad and worried.
+
+"Tom, can we pray for the people who need help?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, Anna. Let's pray," Tom agreed.
+
+They folded their hands and closed their eyes. They prayed for the people who had an emergency. They prayed for the fire truck and the brave people. They prayed for the fire to go away. They prayed for the sun to come out and make the day bright again.
+
+They felt a little better after they prayed. They hugged each other and smiled.
+
+"Tom, can we play with our blocks again?" Anna asked.
+
+"Okay, Anna. Let's play," Tom said.
+
+They went back to their blocks. They built new towers and bridges and houses. They counted their blocks again. They had fun. They hoped the people who had an emergency were safe and happy too.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. But sometimes they make a big mess. Mommy says they have to clean their room before they can go outside.
+
+"Look, Lily, we have so many toys on the floor. We have to put them in the box," Ben says.
+
+"But I don't want to clean. I want to play more," Lily says.
+
+"No, Lily, we have to listen to Mommy. She will be happy if we clean our room. And then we can go outside and play with our friends," Ben says.
+
+"Okay, Ben, you are right. Let's clean our room. You take the cars and I take the dolls," Lily says.
+
+They work together and put all their toys in the box. They also throw away the trash and make their beds. They look around and see that their room is clean.
+
+"Wow, we did a good job, Lily. Our room is clean. There is zero mess," Ben says.
+
+"Yes, Ben, our room is clean. We are good twins. Let's go and show Mommy," Lily says.
+
+They run to Mommy and hug her. Mommy smiles and praises them.
+
+"Good job, Lily and Ben. You cleaned your room very well. I am proud of you. You are clean twins. Now you can go outside and play. But remember to come back for lunch," Mommy says.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy. We love you. We will come back for lunch. Bye, Mommy," Lily and Ben say.
+
+They run outside and play with their friends. They are happy and have fun. They are clean twins.
+Lily loves to ride horses. She goes to the farm with her mom and dad every week. She has a nice horse named Spot. Spot is brown and white and very gentle.
+
+One day, Lily sees a new horse at the farm. It is big and black and has a shiny mane. Lily wants to ride the new horse. She asks her mom and dad, "Can I ride the black horse, please?"
+
+Her mom and dad shake their heads. "No, Lily, you can't ride the black horse. It is not for children. It is too fast and strong. You can ride Spot, your nice horse."
+
+Lily feels sad and angry. She does not want to ride Spot. She wants to ride the new horse. She thinks her mom and dad are not fair. She runs away from them and tries to climb on the black horse.
+
+But the black horse does not like Lily. It snorts and kicks and bucks. Lily falls off and hurts her knee. She cries and cries. Her mom and dad run to her and hug her. They say, "We are sorry, Lily. We know you wanted to ride the black horse. But it is not safe for you. You have to listen to us. We love you and we want you to be happy and healthy."
+
+Lily stops crying and looks at her mom and dad. She says, "I love you too. I am sorry I did not listen to you. You are right. The black horse is not for me. Can I ride Spot, my nice horse?"
+
+Her mom and dad smile and nod. They help Lily get on Spot. Spot is gentle and calm. He lets Lily stroke his mane and feed him a carrot. Lily feels happy and safe. She says, "Spot, you are my best friend. I like to ride you. You are a nice horse."
+Sam likes to print. He has a big printer in his room. He prints pictures of cars, animals, and stars. He prints many papers and puts them on his wall.
+
+One day, Sam wants to print a new picture. He finds a picture of a lion on his computer. He likes the lion. It has a big mane and sharp teeth. He clicks the button to print the lion.
+
+But the printer makes a loud noise. It goes beep, beep, beep. Sam is scared. He covers his ears. He runs to his mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, the printer is loud!" he cries.
+
+Mom comes to his room. She sees the printer. She sees the paper. She sees the lion.
+
+"Sam, the printer is loud because it is out of ink. It cannot print the lion. It needs more ink," she says.
+
+She hugs Sam. She turns off the printer. She takes the paper.
+
+"Look, Sam, the lion is still on the paper. It is not a full lion, but it is a sight. You can see its eyes and nose and mane. It is a beautiful lion," she says.
+
+She puts the paper on Sam's wall. She smiles.
+
+"Maybe we can get more ink tomorrow and print more pictures. But for now, let's go and have a snack. Do you want a cookie?" she asks.
+
+Sam nods. He is not scared anymore. He likes the lion. He likes his mom. He likes cookies. He follows his mom to the kitchen.
+Lily loves cocoa. She likes to drink it when it is cold outside. She likes how it is warm and smooth and sweet. She likes to put marshmallows on top of her cocoa. They are soft and white and yummy.
+
+One day, Lily and her mom go to the store. They need to buy more cocoa. Lily sees many kinds of cocoa on the shelf. She sees cocoa with nuts, cocoa with mint, cocoa with candy. She wants to try them all. But her mom says they can only pick one.
+
+Lily thinks hard. She looks at all the cocoa. She picks up one, then another, then another. She smells them and reads the names. She does not know which one to pick. They all look good.
+
+Then she sees it. The cocoa she wants. It is cocoa with marshmallows. It has a picture of a happy bear on the box. Lily smiles. She picks the cocoa with marshmallows. She shows it to her mom. Her mom nods. She says it is a good choice.

+Lily and Ben were going to fly in an aeroplane with their mum and dad. They were very excited. They packed their bags and went to the big airport. They saw many aeroplanes in the sky. They wanted to go inside one.
+
+They found their seats and buckled their belts. The aeroplane made a loud noise and started to move. Lily and Ben looked out the window and saw the ground get smaller and smaller. They felt happy and scared at the same time.
+
+The lady with the cart came and gave them some food and drink. Lily and Ben opened their trays and saw some bread and cheese and juice. They tasted their food. Lily liked the cheese. It was soft and yummy. Ben did not like the bread. It was hard and dry. He made a face and said, "Yuck! This bread is bad. I don't want it."
+
+Mum saw Ben's face and said, "It's okay, Ben. You don't have to eat it. Maybe you can have some of Lily's cheese. Or you can have some of my apple. It's sweet and crunchy."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Thank you, Mum. Can I have some apple, please?" Mum gave him some apple and he tasted it. He liked the apple. It was sweet and crunchy. He said, "Mmm, this apple is good. I like it."
+
+Lily and Ben finished their food and drink and put their trays away. They looked out the window again and saw some clouds and some birds. They wondered where they were going and what they would see. They felt happy and curious. They hugged their mum and dad and said, "We love you. We love flying in the aeroplane."
+Lily and Ben are playing with a ball in the park. They see a cat sitting on a bench. The cat has a long string around its neck. Lily and Ben want to pet the cat.
+
+"Hello, cat," Lily says. "Can we play with you?"
+
+The cat looks at them and meows. It does not run away. Lily and Ben walk slowly to the bench. They are gentle with the cat. They touch its fur and ears.
+
+"Can we see your string?" Ben asks. "It is very pretty."
+
+The cat nods and lets Ben hold the string. The string has a bell on it. Ben shakes the string and the bell makes a sound. The cat likes the sound. It purrs and rubs its head on Ben's hand.
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They are happy to make a new friend. They play with the cat and the string for a long time. The cat is happy too. It likes Lily and Ben. They are gentle and kind.
+Tim and Lily are playing with blocks in the living room. They like to build towers and houses with the blocks. Tim has a big white block that he found in his toy box. He thinks it is very special and does not want to share it with Lily.
+
+"Look at my white block!" Tim says to Lily. "It is the best block ever. You can't have it."
+
+Lily feels sad and angry. She wants to play with the white block too. She thinks Tim is not nice. She waits until Tim is not looking and grabs the white block from his tower. She runs away with it.
+
+"Hey, give it back!" Tim shouts. He chases Lily around the living room. He tries to catch her and get his block back. Lily runs faster and faster. She does not see the table leg in front of her. She bumps into it and falls down. The white block flies out of her hand and hits the floor. It breaks into two pieces.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cries. She picks up the broken pieces and tries to put them together. They do not fit. She feels sorry and scared. She does not want Tim to be mad at her.
+
+Tim sees the broken block and stops running. He feels sad and angry. He loved his white block. He thinks Lily is not nice. He walks over to her and snatches the pieces from her hand.
+
+"You broke my white block!" Tim yells. "You are a bad girl. I don't want to play with you anymore."
+
+Lily starts to cry. She wants to say sorry and make Tim happy. She does not know what to do. She rubs her eyes with her hands and looks at Tim. She hopes he will forgive her.
+
+"Tim, I'm sorry," Lily says. "I didn't mean to break your white block. I just wanted to play with it. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Tim looks at Lily and sees her tears. He feels sorry and sad. He does not want to make Lily cry. He remembers that they are friends and that they like to play together. He thinks maybe he can share his blocks with her.
+
+"OK, I'm sorry too," Tim says. "I shouldn't have been mean to you. You can play with my blocks if you want. Can we hug and make up?"
+
+Lily smiles and nods. She hugs Tim and says thank you. Tim hugs her back and says you're welcome. They put the broken pieces of the white block in a box and find some other blocks to play with. They build a new tower and a new house. They are happy and friendly again.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. But today it is very cold. The sky is gray and the wind is strong. Lily and Ben wear hats and coats and gloves.
+
+They see a sign in the park. The sign has a picture of a snowman and some words. Lily and Ben do not know the words. They want to talk to the sign. They think the sign can tell them something.
+
+They go to the sign and say hello. They ask the sign what it says. They wait for the sign to talk. But the sign does not talk. It is just a sign. It cannot talk.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They want to talk to someone. They look around the park. They see a man with a dog. The man and the dog are walking. The dog has a red collar and a wagging tail.
+
+Lily and Ben run to the man and the dog. They say hello. They ask the man what the sign says. The man smiles. He tells them the sign says "Have fun in the snow". He says there is no snow today, but maybe tomorrow.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They thank the man. They pet the dog. The dog licks their faces. They laugh. They have fun in the park. They talk to the man and the dog. They forget about the sign. They forget about the cold.
+Tommy and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a big dog with a collar and a leash. The dog was brown and fluffy. It looked friendly.
+
+"Can we pet the dog?" Tommy asked Lily.
+
+"Let's ask the owner first," Lily said. She was a careful girl.
+
+They walked to the owner, who was sitting on a bench. He was reading a book. He had glasses and a hat.
+
+"Excuse me, sir, can we pet your dog?" Lily asked politely.
+
+The owner looked up and smiled. "Sure, kids, his name is Buddy. He loves to be petted and massaged. He's very gentle."
+
+Tommy and Lily thanked the owner and went to Buddy. They stroked his fur and scratched his ears. Buddy wagged his tail and licked their faces. He was very happy.
+
+"Can I massage his belly?" Tommy asked.
+
+"Sure, he likes that too," the owner said.
+
+Tommy put his hand under Buddy's belly and rubbed it softly. Buddy rolled over and closed his eyes. He made a funny noise.
+
+"What's that?" Tommy asked.
+
+"That's him snoring. He's very relaxed," the owner said.
+
+Tommy and Lily laughed. They thought Buddy was cute and funny.
+
+But then, something happened. A loud noise came from the street. It was a fire truck with a siren and a horn. It was going to a fire.
+
+Buddy woke up and got scared. He jumped up and barked. He was fierce. He pulled his leash and ran to the street. He wanted to chase the fire truck.
+
+"Stop, Buddy, stop!" the owner shouted. He dropped his book and ran after him.
+
+Tommy and Lily were shocked. They didn't know what to do. They felt bad for the owner and Buddy.
+
+"Come back, Buddy, come back!" they yelled.
+
+But Buddy didn't listen. He ran faster and faster. He crossed the street and almost got hit by a car. The driver honked and yelled. Buddy was in trouble.
+
+The owner was out of breath. He couldn't catch up with Buddy. He was worried and embarrassed. He wished he had a stronger leash.
+
+"Help, help, someone help me!" he cried.
+
+Tommy and Lily looked around. They saw a policeman on a bike. He was wearing a helmet and a badge. He was near the park.
+
+"Look, there's a policeman! Maybe he can help!" Lily said.
+
+"Let's ask him!" Tommy said.
+
+They ran to the policeman and told him what happened. They pointed to Buddy and the owner.
+
+"Please, sir, can you help them? The dog is scared and the owner is embarrassed. They need your help!" Lily said.
+
+The policeman nodded. He was kind and brave. He got on his bike and pedaled fast. He followed Buddy and the owner.
+
+"Stay here, kids, I'll be back soon!" he said.
+
+Tommy and Lily waited. They hoped the policeman would catch Buddy and bring him back. They hoped the owner and the dog would be okay. They hoped the fire truck would put out the fire.
+
+They held hands and prayed. They were good friends.
+Tom was a little boy who liked to taste new things. He tasted apples, cheese, bread, and milk. He tasted flowers, grass, dirt, and bugs. He tasted everything he could find.
+
+One day, he saw a big shadow on the wall. It looked like a monster with horns and teeth. Tom was not afraid. He wanted to taste the shadow. He ran to the wall and opened his mouth.
+
+"Stop!" a voice said. Tom looked up and saw his big sister, Jen. She was holding a flashlight. She was making the shadow with her hand.
+
+"What are you doing?" Jen asked. "You can't taste a shadow. It's not real. It's just dark and cold."
+
+Tom was confused. He touched the wall with his tongue. It was hard and smooth. He did not like it. He felt miserable.
+
+"Why did you make a monster shadow?" Tom asked. "You scared me."
+
+Jen smiled. She was sorry. She wanted to play with Tom. She turned off the flashlight.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. I was bored. Do you want to play with me? We can make funny shadows with our hands. Like a dog, or a bird, or a bunny."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked funny shadows. He forgave Jen. He took her hand and they went to the bed. They turned on the flashlight and made funny shadows on the ceiling. They laughed and had fun. They tasted happiness.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom. One day, they see a big truck with many bottles on it. The bottles are green and shiny. They want to watch the truck.
+
+"Mom, can we watch the truck?" Anna asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. Don't go too close to the road," Mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben run to the fence and watch the truck. They see a man get out of the truck. He is wearing a blue shirt and a hat. He has a big smile. He takes a bottle from the truck and gives it to a lady. The lady says thank you and gives him some money. He does the same thing with many other people. He is selling the bottles.
+
+"Wow, he has so many bottles. I wonder what is inside them," Ben says.
+
+"Maybe it is juice. Or water. Or soda," Anna says.
+
+"I want a bottle. Can we have a bottle, Mom?" Ben asks.
+
+Mom shakes her head. "No, we don't need a bottle. We have our own drinks at home. And those bottles are too expensive. The man is asking for a lot of money. He is not modest. He is greedy."
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They want a bottle. They think the bottles are pretty and fun. They watch the man sell more bottles. Then they see something happen. A dog runs out of the park and chases a cat. The cat runs across the road. The dog follows the cat. The man sees the dog and the cat. He drops the bottle he is holding. It breaks on the ground. The liquid inside the bottle spills out. It is not juice. Or water. Or soda. It is green and bubbly. It smells bad. It makes a loud noise. It makes smoke. It makes fire.
+
+"Ah! Help! My bottles! My bottles!" The man screams.
+
+He runs to the truck. He tries to save his bottles. But it is too late. The fire spreads to the truck. The truck explodes. The bottles explode. The park explodes. The people scream. The dog and the cat run away.
+
+Anna and Ben are scared. They hug Mom. Mom hugs them back. She takes them away from the park. She takes them home. She gives them juice. And water. And soda. She tells them they are safe. She tells them they are lucky. She tells them they don't need bottles. She tells them they are modest. She tells them she loves them. They love her too. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big hill near their house. Anna wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side. Ben was scared of the hill and wanted to stay on the grass.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's go up the hill!" Anna said. "It will be fun!"
+
+"No, Anna, the hill is too high and steep. We might fall or get lost. Let's play here with our toys," Ben said.
+
+Anna insisted. She took Ben's hand and pulled him towards the hill. Ben tried to resist, but Anna was stronger. She dragged him up the hill, step by step.
+
+As they climbed, they heard a loud roar. It sounded like a mighty animal. Ben was terrified. He wanted to go back, but Anna was curious. She wanted to see the animal.
+
+"Anna, please, let's go back! There is a scary noise! It might be a lion or a bear!" Ben said.
+
+"Don't be silly, Ben. There is no lion or bear here. It's probably just a cow or a dog. Let's go and say hello," Anna said.
+
+They reached the top of the hill and looked around. They saw a big farm with many animals. There were cows, sheep, pigs, chickens, and horses. But there was also something else. Something that made the loud roar. Something that was not a cow or a dog.
+
+It was a tractor. A big, yellow, noisy tractor. It was working on the field, plowing and sowing. The twins were amazed. They had never seen a tractor before. They wanted to touch it and ride it.
+
+"Wow, look, Ben, it's a tractor! It's so cool! Let's go and see it!" Anna said.
+
+"Anna, no, wait! It's dangerous! It might hurt us or run us over! Let's stay away from it!" Ben said.
+
+But Anna did not listen. She ran towards the tractor, waving her arms and shouting. Ben followed her, trying to stop her. The farmer who was driving the tractor saw them and stopped. He got off the tractor and walked towards them. He was not happy.
+
+"Hey, you kids, what are you doing here? This is private property! You can't just run around on my farm! You could have been hurt by the tractor or the animals! Go back to your house, now!" he said.
+
+He was very angry. He scared the twins. They realized they had made a mistake. They apologized to the farmer and ran back to the hill. They went down the hill, holding hands. They were glad they were safe. They learned their lesson. They decided to never climb the hill again. They played on the grass with their toys. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. There is a big oak tree in the park. The oak tree has many leaves and acorns.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben find a big acorn under the oak tree. They want to see what is inside. Ben tries to crack the acorn with his teeth, but it is too hard. Lily tries to smash the acorn with a rock, but it is too strong.
+
+"Who can open this acorn?" Lily asks.
+
+"I know!" Ben says. "We can lift it up and drop it from the oak tree. Maybe it will break then."
+
+"That is a good idea!" Lily says. "You are very intelligent, Ben."
+
+Lily and Ben lift the acorn together. It is heavy, but they are strong. They climb the oak tree with the acorn. They find a high branch and put the acorn on it.
+
+"Ready?" Ben asks.
+
+"Ready!" Lily says.
+
+They push the acorn off the branch. It falls down, down, down. It hits the ground with a loud thud.
+
+Lily and Ben climb down the oak tree. They run to the acorn. They see a crack in the shell. They peel it off and find a nut inside.
+
+"Wow!" Lily says. "We did it!"
+
+"Yay!" Ben says. "We can share the nut. It is our reward for being intelligent and brave."
+
+They smile and eat the nut. It is sweet and crunchy. They are happy. They hug the oak tree and thank it for the acorn. They are friends with the oak tree too.
+Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a toy car in the grass. The car is old and dirty. It has no wheels and no windows.
+
+"Look, a car!" Sam says.
+
+"Can we play with it?" Mia asks.
+
+Sam nods. He picks up the car and tries to make it move. But the car does not move. It is broken.
+
+"Maybe we can fix it," Mia says. She looks around and sees a trash can. She runs to the trash can and looks inside. She finds four bottle caps and two straws.
+
+"Here, I have wheels and windows!" she says. She brings them to Sam.
+
+Sam smiles. He takes the bottle caps and the straws. He uses the straws to make holes in the bottle caps. Then he pushes the bottle caps onto the car. He also puts the straws in the car to make windows.
+
+"Wow, you are smart!" Mia says.
+
+"Thank you, you are kind!" Sam says.
+
+They look at the car. The car looks new and shiny. It has wheels and windows. It is smooth and fast.
+
+"Let's go for a walk with the car!" Sam says.
+
+"Okay, let's go!" Mia says.
+
+They hold the car and run to the path. They make the car roll on the ground. They make the car go left and right. They make the car go fast and slow. They have fun with the car.
+
+They restore the car and enjoy their walk. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a bee flying near a flower. Lily likes bees. She thinks they are pretty and make honey. She wants to get closer to the bee.
+
+"Look, Ben, a bee!" she says. "Can I touch it?"
+
+Ben shakes his head. He is nervous of bees. He thinks they are scary and sting. He does not want to get near the bee.
+
+"No, Lily, don't touch it!" he says. "It might hurt you!"
+
+Lily does not listen to Ben. She walks slowly to the flower. She reaches out her hand to the bee. The bee does not like Lily. It feels angry and afraid. It buzzes loudly and flies at Lily.
+
+Lily screams. She runs away from the bee. She is scared and sad. She has a red bump on her arm. It hurts a lot.
+
+Ben runs to Lily. He hugs her and says sorry. He tries to make her feel better.
+
+"It's okay, Lily, it's okay," he says. "The bee is gone now. Let me get you some ice. It will help your bump."
+
+Lily nods. She is still crying. She holds Ben's hand. They go inside the house. They find their mom. She gives them some ice and a hug. She tells them a story about bees. She says bees are good and important, but they need to be careful and respectful around them.
+
+Lily and Ben listen to their mom. They learn something new. They feel a little better. They say thank you to their mom. They go back to the garden. They play with other things. They do not touch the bees. They are happy and safe.
+Anna and Ben were very happy. They were going on a holiday with their mom and dad. They packed their bags with toys and clothes. They got in the car and drove to the airport.
+
+At the airport, they saw many big planes. They had wings and engines. They could fly in the sky. Anna and Ben wanted to see them soar. They asked their mom and dad if they could go to the window.
+
+"Sure, you can go to the window, but stay close to us," mom said. "We don't want to lose you in the crowd."
+
+Anna and Ben ran to the window. They saw a plane take off. It went very fast and then it lifted up. It soared above the clouds. Anna and Ben clapped their hands.
+
+"Wow, that's amazing!" Anna said. "Can we soar too?"
+
+"Yes, we can," dad said. "Our plane is ready to board. Come on, let's go."
+
+Anna and Ben followed their mom and dad. They showed their tickets to a lady. She smiled and gave them stickers. They had pictures of planes on them.
+
+"Here you go, these are for you," she said. "You are very original. You are the only kids with red hats today."
+
+Anna and Ben thanked the lady. They put the stickers on their hats. They felt very special. They walked to the plane. They found their seats. They buckled their belts. They were ready to soar. They were very excited. They were going on a holiday.
+Ben and Mia like to play pirates on the big boat. They have a hat, a sword and an anchor. The anchor is heavy and shiny. They pretend to sail to an island with treasure.
+
+One day, they see a dark cloud in the sky. It makes a loud noise. Ben says, "Oh no, a storm is coming! We have to go back to the dock!" Mia says, "But we have to find the treasure first!" Ben says, "No, it is too dangerous. Come on, help me pull the anchor."
+
+They try to pull the anchor, but it is stuck. They pull harder and harder. The rope is thin and old. It makes a snap sound. The anchor breaks the rope and falls into the water. Ben and Mia gasp. They lose the anchor.
+
+They run to the front of the boat. They see the storm is closer. The wind is strong and the waves are big. They are scared. They shout, "Help! Help! We need help!"
+
+A man hears them. He is the captain of the boat. He comes to them and says, "What are you doing here? You should not play on the boat. It is not safe." He sees the broken rope. He says, "Where is the anchor? Did you break it?" Ben and Mia nod. They are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, captain. We were playing pirates. We did not mean to break the anchor."
+
+The captain is angry, but he is also kind. He says, "Well, you are lucky I found you. The storm is very bad. We have to go inside. I will try to fix the anchor later. But you have to promise me, no more playing on the boat. Do you understand?" Ben and Mia nod. They say, "We understand, captain. We promise. Thank you for saving us." They follow the captain inside. They are glad they are safe. They learn their lesson. They do not play pirates on the boat again.
+Lily and Tom are playing with their toy soldiers. They like to pretend they are in a war and order their soldiers to fight. Lily has a lot of chubby soldiers. She thinks they are strong and brave. Tom has fewer soldiers, but they are fast and smart.
+
+One day, Lily and Tom decide to have a big war. They put their soldiers on opposite sides of the room. They make a loud noise to start the war. "Charge!" they shout. Their soldiers run towards each other. Some of them fall down. Some of them hit each other. Some of them hide behind the sofa.
+
+Lily and Tom watch the war and order their soldiers to do different things. "Go left!" Lily says. "Go right!" Tom says. "Attack!" Lily says. "Defend!" Tom says. They have fun and laugh. They do not care who wins or loses. They just like to play.
+
+But then, something happens. Lily's chubby soldier bumps into Tom's fast soldier. They both fall down. They look at each other. They do not want to fight. They want to be friends. They smile and shake hands. They stand up and walk away from the war. They go to the kitchen and look for some cookies.
+
+Lily and Tom see their soldiers leaving the war. They are surprised and confused. They do not understand why their soldiers do not want to fight. They follow them to the kitchen. They see their soldiers sharing cookies and talking. They see their soldiers being nice and happy. They feel silly and sorry. They do not want to play war anymore. They want to play with their soldiers.
+
+They join their soldiers in the kitchen. They say sorry to each other. They hug and make up. They share cookies and stories. They play with their soldiers and have fun. They learn a new word: peace.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the park with their dog, Patch. Patch was a big, brown dog who liked to run and chase balls. Sam threw a ball for Patch, and he ran after it very fast. But then, Patch saw a cat on the other side of the fence. He wanted to catch the cat, so he jumped over the fence and ran away.
+
+"Patch, come back!" Sam shouted. He and Lily ran to the fence, but they could not see Patch. They were scared and sad. They did not want to lose their dog.
+
+They heard a loud bark from far away. They followed the sound and saw Patch in a big hole. He had fallen into the hole and could not get out. He was dirty and hurt. He had a cut on his leg.
+
+"Patch, we are here!" Lily called. She and Sam tried to pull Patch out of the hole, but he was too heavy. They needed help.
+
+They saw a man walking by with a shovel. He was digging a garden. They waved at him and asked him to help.
+
+"Please, mister, can you help us? Our dog is in the hole and he is stuck. He needs to go to the vet. He is bleeding," Sam said.
+
+The man nodded and came over. He used his shovel to make the hole bigger. Then he lifted Patch out of the hole and put him on the grass. He gave him some water and wrapped a cloth around his leg.
+
+"Thank you, mister, you are very kind. You rescued our dog," Lily said.
+
+The man smiled and said, "You're welcome, kids. I'm glad I could help. Patch is a brave dog. He will be fine. But you should take him to the vet soon. He needs a proper patch for his wound."
+
+Sam and Lily hugged Patch and thanked the man again. They called their mom and told her what happened. She came to pick them up and take them to the vet. Patch was happy to see his mom. He licked her face and wagged his tail.
+

+
+"Wait for me!" Max said. He ran to the pool and put on his swim suit. He tried to jump in the water, but he was too thin. He slipped on the edge and fell on the ground. He hurt his knee and cried.
+
+"Are you okay?" Lily asked. She got out of the water and ran to Max. She saw his knee was red and wet.
+
+"I'm sorry, Max. I didn't mean to leave you. Do you want to swim with me?" Lily said.
+
+Max sniffed and nodded. He got up and held Lily's hand. They walked to the pool and slid on the small slide. They had fun and forgot about the hurt. They were friends who liked to slide and swim.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big aeroplane in the sky. It makes a loud noise.
+
+"Wow, look at the aeroplane!" Ben says. "It is so fast and shiny. I want to fly in an aeroplane one day."
+
+Anna nods. She likes aeroplanes too. She has a toy aeroplane at home. She pretends to be a pilot and makes zooming sounds.
+
+"Where do you think the aeroplane is going?" Anna asks Ben. "Maybe it is going to a faraway place. Maybe it is going to see the animals in the jungle. Or the snow in the mountains. Or the sea with the fish."
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He has many ideas. He likes to imagine different places.
+
+"I think the aeroplane is going to see the stars," he replies. "It is going to fly higher and higher until it reaches the sky. It is going to see the moon and the sun and the planets. It is going to have a lot of fun."
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They think that would be amazing. They watch the aeroplane until it disappears behind the clouds. They wonder what it will see next. They hope it will be happy and healthy. They hope they will fly in an aeroplane one day too.

+Anna and Ben like to jog with their dad every morning. They put on their shoes and hats and go outside. They see many things on the way: birds, flowers, cars, dogs.
+
+One day, they see something new: an enormous elephant. The elephant is gray and has a long nose and big ears. It is walking slowly on the road. Anna and Ben are very surprised and curious.
+
+"Dad, what is that?" Anna asks.
+
+"That is an elephant, Anna. It is a very big animal that lives in faraway places. Sometimes, people bring them to the zoo or the circus," dad explains.
+
+"Can we speak to the elephant, dad?" Ben asks.
+
+"Well, we can try, but the elephant may not understand us. Elephants have their own way of speaking, with sounds and gestures," dad says.
+
+Anna and Ben decide to try anyway. They wave their hands and say hello to the elephant. The elephant stops and looks at them. Then, it makes a loud noise with its nose and flaps its ears. Anna and Ben laugh and clap their hands.
+
+The elephant seems to like them too. It moves its nose gently and touches their hats. Anna and Ben giggle and pet the elephant's nose. They feel its rough skin and soft hair.

+Sara loved books. She had many books on her bookshelf in her room. She liked to look at the pictures and listen to her mom read the stories. She was excited when her mom brought home a new book for her. It was about a brave princess who protected her friends from a dragon.
+
+"Can we read it now, mom?" Sara asked.
+
+"Of course, sweetie. Let's go to your room and cuddle on your bed," mom said.
+
+They walked to Sara's room and mom picked up the book from the bookshelf. But when they got to the bed, they saw a big mess. Sara's little brother, Tom, had taken all her books from the bookshelf and thrown them on the floor. He was sitting on the bed, tearing a page from the new book.
+
+"Tom, no!" Sara cried. "That's my new book! You're ruining it!"
+
+Mom was angry. She took the book from Tom and scolded him. "Tom, that's not nice. You can't take Sara's books without asking. And you can't rip them. Books are precious. They have stories and pictures that make us happy and teach us things. You have to respect them and protect them."
+
+Tom looked sad. He didn't mean to hurt Sara's books. He just wanted to play with them. He said sorry to Sara and mom. He helped them pick up the books and put them back on the bookshelf. He gave Sara a hug and said he would never do it again.
+
+Sara forgave Tom. She was glad he learned his lesson. She shared her new book with him and asked mom to read it to them. They all cuddled on the bed and listened to the story of the brave princess. They learned that books are fun and valuable, and that we should protect them and share them with others.
+Anna liked to collect things. She had a box full of shiny stones, feathers, buttons and shells. She liked to look at them and make patterns with them. But she was shy and did not have many friends to share her collection with.
+
+One day, she saw a new boy in the park. He was sitting under a big tree, holding a book. He looked lonely and sad. Anna wanted to talk to him, but she was afraid he would not like her. She walked around the tree, pretending to look for something.
+
+"Hello," the boy said. "What are you looking for?"
+
+Anna was surprised. She did not expect him to speak to her. She felt her face turn red. She did not know what to say.
+
+"I'm looking for...for..." she stammered.
+
+The boy smiled. He pointed to his book. "Do you like stories?" he asked.
+
+Anna nodded. She loved stories. She liked to imagine different worlds and adventures.
+
+"I have many stories in this book," the boy said. "Do you want to hear one?"
+
+Anna nodded again. She felt curious and happy. She sat down next to the boy, under the tree.
+
+The boy opened his book and read a story about a brave knight and a dragon. Anna listened with wonder and excitement. She forgot to be shy. She asked questions and made comments. The boy liked her. He liked her voice and her eyes.
+
+They read more stories and laughed and talked. They became friends. They decided to collect things together. They found leaves, flowers, acorns and pine cones. They put them in a bag and took them to Anna's house. They made a collage with them and hung it on the wall.
+
+Anna was glad she met the boy. She was not shy anymore. She had a friend to share her collection with. She had a friend to share stories with. She had a friend to share her happiness with.
+Lily and Tom were playing with a big puzzle. They liked to find the pieces that matched and fit them together. The puzzle had a picture of a farm with many animals and plants.
+

+
+"Good job, Lily! I found the piece for the barn roof!" Tom said, holding a red piece.
+
+They were having fun until they saw that one piece was missing. It was the piece for the farmer's hat. They looked everywhere, but they could not find it.
+
+"Where is it? Where is it?" Lily asked, starting to panic.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe we lost it. Maybe the dog took it. Maybe it flew away." Tom said, also panicking.
+
+They were very sad and scared. They did not want to leave the puzzle unfinished. They did not want to lose their favorite toy.
+
+Then they heard a voice from the kitchen.
+
+"Hey, kids, do you want some cookies?" Mom asked.
+
+They ran to the kitchen and saw Mom holding a tray of cookies. And on the tray, they also saw the missing piece. It was the piece for the farmer's hat.
+
+"Mom, you found it! You found it!" Lily and Tom shouted, jumping with joy.
+
+"Yes, I did. It was under the table. I'm sorry, I didn't know it was part of your puzzle. Here you go." Mom said, giving them the piece.
+
+"Thank you, Mom! You are the best!" Lily and Tom said, hugging Mom.
+
+They ran back to the living room and finished the puzzle. They were very happy and proud. They showed Mom their work and ate the cookies. They learned to not panic and to always look for the missing piece.
+Lily and Max loved to play with their boats in the pond. They had a red boat and a blue boat, and they liked to race them across the water. Sometimes they would blow on the sails, and sometimes they would use sticks to push them.
+
+One day, they met a new friend at the pond. His name was Sam, and he had a yellow boat. He asked them if they wanted to race with him. Lily and Max said yes, and they got ready to start.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Sam shouted, and they all let go of their boats. The boats zoomed away, splashing and bobbing. Lily's red boat was very fast, and soon it was in the lead. Max's blue boat was close behind, and Sam's yellow boat was last.
+
+"Go, go, go!" Lily cheered, watching her boat. She was so happy, she did not see the big rock in the water. Her boat hit the rock and flipped over. Lily gasped and ran to the edge of the pond.
+
+"Oh no, my boat!" she cried. She reached out to grab it, but it was too far. She felt tears in her eyes.
+
+Max and Sam saw what happened, and they stopped their boats. They felt sorry for Lily, and they wanted to help her.
+
+"Here, Lily, you can have my boat," Sam said, holding out his yellow boat. "It's not as fast, but it's very gentle. It won't hit any rocks."
+
+Lily looked at Sam, and then at his boat. She smiled and wiped her eyes.
+
+"Thank you, Sam, you are very kind," she said, taking his boat. "Can we all play together?"
+
+"Of course, we can," Max said, joining them. "Let's make a new game. Let's see who can make the biggest waves!"
+
+They all nodded and laughed, and they started to splash their boats in the pond. They had a lot of fun, and they became good friends. They learned that racing was not as important as sharing and caring.
+Tommy had a new dog. His name was Spot. Spot was a big dog with black and white fur. Tommy loved Spot very much. He wanted to play with him all the time.
+
+But Spot was not a good dog. He did not listen to Tommy or his mom. He ran away when they called him. He barked at other dogs and people. He pulled on the leash and made Tommy fall. He chewed on Tommy's toys and shoes. He made a big mess in the house.
+
+Tommy's mom said, "Spot needs to learn some manners. He needs to be obedient. He needs to come when we call him. He needs to sit and stay and heel. He needs to be nice to others. He needs to stop biting and destroying things. Or else we cannot keep him."
+
+Tommy was sad. He did not want to lose Spot. He said, "How can I teach him, mom? He does not understand me."
+
+Tommy's mom said, "You can take him to a dog school. There, a teacher will help you and Spot. He will show you how to use words and treats and a clicker. He will make Spot happy and smart. He will make Spot a good dog."
+
+Tommy liked the idea. He said, "OK, mom. Let's go to the dog school. I want to learn with Spot. I want to be his best friend."
+
+So Tommy and his mom took Spot to the dog school. There, they met the teacher and other dogs and owners. The teacher was kind and patient. He taught Tommy and Spot how to communicate and cooperate. He taught Spot how to heel, which means to walk next to Tommy without pulling. He taught Spot how to sit and stay and come when Tommy said so. He taught Spot how to be gentle and polite with other dogs and people. He gave Spot treats and praise and clicks when he did well. He corrected Spot when he did wrong.
+
+Spot learned fast. He liked the dog school. He liked the teacher and the other dogs. He liked the treats and the clicks. He liked Tommy and his mom. He wanted to make them happy. He became obedient. He became a good dog.
+
+Tommy was proud. He said, "Look, mom. Spot is heeling. He is sitting. He is staying. He is coming. He is nice. He is smart. He is a good dog."
+
+Tommy's mom said, "Yes, Tommy. Spot is a good dog. And you are a good owner. You learned how to teach him. You learned how to love him. You learned how to be responsible. You learned a lot at the dog school."
+
+Tommy and Spot hugged each other. They were happy. They were best friends.
+
+The moral of the story is: Learning is fun and rewarding. It can help us and our pets to be better and happier. It can strengthen our bonds and friendships. It can teach us values and skills.
+Ella and Max were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. But one day, they saw a big sign that said: "Park closed for repairs. No playing allowed." They were very sad and angry.
+
+"Who did this?" Max asked. "Why can't we play here?"
+
+"I don't know," Ella said. "But maybe we can find another place to play."
+
+They walked around the park, looking for a way in. They saw a fence, a gate, a wall, but they were all locked. Then they saw a small hole under a bush. It was dark and dirty, but it looked big enough for them to crawl through.
+
+"Look, Max, a secret tunnel!" Ella said. "Maybe it leads to the park."
+
+"Let's go and see," Max said. "But be careful, it might be dangerous."
+
+They crawled through the hole, holding hands. They felt cold and wet, and heard strange noises. They were scared, but also curious. They kept going, hoping to find the park.
+
+After a while, they saw a light at the end of the tunnel. They crawled faster, and came out into a beautiful garden. There were flowers, trees, birds, and a pond. And there was a big slide, a swing, a sandbox, and a seesaw. It was like a dream.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Ella said. "It's like our own secret park!"
+
+"Look, there's someone over there," Max said. He pointed to a bench, where an elderly lady was sitting. She had white hair, a kind face, and a big hat. She was knitting a scarf.
+
+"Hello, children," the lady said. "I'm glad you found my garden. I made it for you."
+
+"For us?" Ella and Max asked. They were surprised and happy.
+
+"Yes, for you. And for all the children who love to play. I used to play in the park, too, when I was young. But then they closed it, and I was sad. So I decided to make my own park, in this old tunnel. I planted the seeds, and watered them, and watched them grow. And I brought some toys, too. But I couldn't share it with anyone, because it was a secret. Until you came along."
+
+The lady smiled, and invited them to sit with her. She gave them some cookies and milk, and told them stories. Ella and Max listened, and laughed, and asked questions. They felt like they had found a new friend.
+
+"Thank you for your garden, and your stories, and your cookies," Ella said. "You are very kind."
+
+"Yes, thank you," Max said. "You are very cool."
+
+The lady hugged them, and said: "You are very welcome. And you are very brave. You united to find a way to play, and you discovered a secret. You made me very happy. And you can come back anytime you want. Just remember, don't tell anyone else. It's our secret."
+
+Ella and Max nodded, and promised. They played in the garden for a while, and then said goodbye to the lady. They crawled back through the tunnel, and went home. They felt like they had had the best adventure ever. And they kept their secret.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big hill. They want to climb the hill.
+
+"Let's go up the hill!" Tim says. "We can see the whole park from there!"
+
+"OK!" Sam says. "But be careful. The hill is steep and slippery."
+
+They start to climb the hill. They use their hands and feet. They are happy and excited. They see the trees, the flowers, the birds, and the swings.
+
+They are almost at the top of the hill. They see a can on the ground. It is shiny and round. It has a picture of a fish on it.
+
+"Look!" Tim says. "It is tuna! I love tuna! It is nice and yummy!"
+
+He picks up the can. He tries to open it. He pulls the ring on the can. But the can is old and rusty. It breaks. The tuna spills out. It smells bad. It is rotten.
+
+"Yuck!" Sam says. "That is not nice tuna! That is bad tuna! Throw it away!"
+
+But Tim does not listen. He likes tuna. He wants to eat it. He puts some tuna in his mouth. He chews it. He makes a face. He feels sick. He spits out the tuna. He cries.
+
+"Help!" Tim says. "The tuna hurts my tummy! I want to go home!"
+
+Sam tries to help Tim. He holds his hand. He says, "Don't worry. I will take you home. We will tell your mom. She will make you feel better."
+
+But it is too late. Tim is too sick. He falls down. He does not move. He does not breathe. He is gone.
+
+Sam is scared. He screams. He runs down the hill. He looks for help. He sees a man. He says, "Please help! My friend ate bad tuna! He is on the hill! He is not alive!"
+
+The man is shocked. He calls the police. He says, "There is a boy on the hill. He ate bad tuna. He is dead."
+
+The police come. They see Tim. They see the can. They are sad. They take Tim away. They talk to Sam. They say, "We are sorry. Your friend made a big mistake. He should not have eaten the tuna. He should have listened to you. He should have been careful."
+
+Sam is sad. He cries. He says, "I miss Tim. He was my friend. He was nice. He liked to play. He liked to climb. He liked tuna. But he did not know. He did not know the tuna was bad. He did not know the tuna would kill him."
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not eat things that you do not know. Do not eat things that smell bad. Do not eat things that are old. Listen to your friends. Be careful. Or you might die.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a small animal under a tree. It had a long tail and whiskers. It was a rat.
+
+"Look, a rat!" Ben said. He wanted to touch it.
+
+"No, Ben, don't!" Lily said. She was scared of rats. She thought they were dirty and mean.
+
+But Ben did not listen. He walked slowly to the rat. He reached out his hand. The rat did not run away. It looked at Ben with big eyes. It was not dirty or mean. It was adorable.
+
+"Hi, rat," Ben said softly. He petted the rat gently. The rat liked Ben. It made a happy sound. It climbed on Ben's arm.
+
+"Wow, you are so cute," Ben said. He smiled. He wanted to keep the rat.
+
+"Lily, come and see," Ben said. He called his sister.
+
+Lily was curious. She came closer. She saw the rat on Ben's arm. It was not scary. It was adorable.
+
+"Hello, rat," Lily said. She touched the rat too. The rat liked Lily. It made another happy sound. It licked Lily's finger.
+
+"Can we take it home?" Ben asked. He looked at Lily.
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. She looked at the rat. She liked the rat. But she was not sure.
+
+They heard their mom calling them. It was time to go.
+
+"Mom, look what we found!" Ben said. He showed the rat to their mom.
+
+Their mom was surprised. She saw the rat. It was adorable.
+
+"What a sweet rat," their mom said. She was not afraid of rats. She knew they could be nice pets.
+
+"Can we keep it, please?" Ben and Lily asked together. They looked at their mom with hopeful eyes.
+
+Their mom thought for a moment. She saw how much Ben and Lily liked the rat. She saw how friendly the rat was.
+
+"OK, you can keep it," their mom said. "But you need to take good care of it. You need to give it food, water and a cage. You need to clean it and play with it. And you need to give it a name."
+
+"Yay, thank you, mom!" Ben and Lily said. They hugged their mom. They hugged the rat.
+
+They decided to name the rat Rosie. They took Rosie home. They gave her everything she needed. They loved her very much. And Rosie loved them too. She was a happy rat. She was an adorable rat.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the garden. One day, they find a big potato in the dirt. They are very happy.
+
+"Look, Sam, a potato!" Tim says.
+
+"Wow, can we eat it?" Sam asks.
+
+"No, we have to wash it first. Come, I will lead you to the kitchen," Tim says.
+
+They run to the kitchen with the potato. Mom is there. She sees the potato and smiles.
+
+"Did you find this in the garden?" she asks.
+
+"Yes, Mom, can we eat it?" Tim and Sam say.
+
+"Of course, but we have to cook it first. It will be yummy and warm. You can help me peel it and cut it," Mom says.
+
+She gives them a knife and a peeler. They are careful not to hurt themselves. They peel and cut the potato. Mom puts it in a pot with water and salt. She turns on the stove.
+
+"Can we watch it cook?" Tim and Sam ask.
+
+"Sure, but stay away from the fire. It is hot and dangerous. I will tell you when it is ready," Mom says.
+
+They sit on the floor and watch the pot. They see the water bubble and steam. They smell the potato. They are hungry and excited.
+
+"Is it done, Mom?" Tim and Sam ask.
+
+"Yes, it is. Let me drain it and mash it. Then we can eat it with butter and cheese," Mom says.
+
+She drains the pot and mashes the potato. She adds butter and cheese and mixes it well. She puts it in a big bowl and spoons some on their plates.
+
+"Here you go, boys. Enjoy your potato. You did a great job," Mom says.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. It looks delicious," Tim and Sam say.

+"Wow, look at that car!" Lily says. "It is so fancy. I want to ride in it."
+
+Ben nods. He likes the car too. He runs to the car and knocks on the window. A man opens the door. He smiles at Ben and Lily.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you like my car?" he asks.
+
+"Yes, we do!" Ben says. "Can we ride in it?"
+
+The man thinks for a moment. He says, "Sure, why not? Hop in. I'll take you for a spin."
+
+Lily is happy. She wants to go in the car. But Ben feels something in his tummy. He feels scared. He does not know the man. He remembers what his mom told him. Never go with strangers.
+
+"Thank you, but no thank you," Ben says. He refuses to go in the car. He pulls Lily away.
+
+"Come on, Lily. Let's go back to the swings. We don't need a fancy car. We have each other."
+
+Lily is confused. She still wants to ride in the car. But she sees that Ben is serious. He is her friend. She trusts him. She follows him to the swings.
+
+The man is angry. He closes the door and drives away. He honks his horn loudly.
+
+Lily and Ben do not care. They are happy on the swings. They laugh and sing. They are glad they have each other. They are good friends.
+Ben and Mia liked to play chess. They had a big board with black and white pieces. They learned how to move them from their dad. He said chess was a smart game that made you think.
+
+One day, Ben and Mia were playing chess in their room. They were having fun and trying to catch each other's king. But then they heard music from the living room. It was loud and happy. They looked at each other and smiled.

+"Let's go dance!" Mia said. She jumped up and ran to the door. Ben followed her. They left their chess board on the floor.
+
+In the living room, they saw their mom and dad dancing. They were holding hands and spinning around. They looked happy and silly. Ben and Mia joined them. They danced and laughed and hugged.
+
+But then they heard a crash from their room. They stopped dancing and ran back. They saw their chess board on the floor. The pieces were scattered and broken. Their cat, Luna, was sitting on the board. She looked at them with her pale green eyes. She had knocked over the board with her paw.
+
+"Bad cat!" Ben and Mia shouted. They were sad and angry. They loved their chess game. They tried to pick up the pieces, but some were too small or too sharp.
+
+Their mom and dad came to their room. They saw what happened. They hugged Ben and Mia and said they were sorry. They said they would buy them a new chess game. They said they were proud of them for playing chess. They said they loved them.
+
+Ben and Mia felt better. They hugged their mom and dad and said they loved them too. They said they also liked to dance. They said they forgave Luna. They looked at their cat. She was still sitting on the board. She looked at them with her pale green eyes. She purred.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big white dog with a spike on its neck. Sara wanted to pet the dog, but Ben was scared.
+
+"Can I touch the dog, please?" Sara asked the dog's owner, a nice lady.
+
+"Sure, you can. His name is Spike. He is very friendly," the lady said.
+
+Sara reached out her hand to stroke the dog's fur. Spike licked her hand and wagged his tail. Sara smiled and giggled.
+
+"See, Ben? He is not scary. He is cute. You try too," Sara said to Ben.
+
+But Ben shook his head. He did not want to touch the dog. He hid behind Sara.
+
+"No, no, no. I don't like dogs. They are big and loud and they bite," Ben said.
+
+Sara insisted. She wanted Ben to like Spike too. She pulled Ben by his arm and brought him closer to the dog.
+
+"Come on, Ben. He won't bite you. He is nice. Look, he likes you. He is giving you a kiss," Sara said as Spike licked Ben's face.
+
+Ben squealed and pushed the dog away. He ran to his mom, who was sitting on a bench.
+
+"Mom, mom, help! The dog kissed me. I don't like it. I don't like dogs," Ben cried.
+
+Sara followed him and tried to calm him down.
+
+"Ben, don't cry. Spike is a good dog. He just wanted to say hello. He didn't mean to scare you. He is sorry," Sara said.
+
+But Ben did not listen. He hugged his mom and buried his face in her lap.
+
+"Maybe next time, Ben. Maybe next time you will like dogs," Sara said.
+
+She waved goodbye to the lady and Spike and went back to play. She hoped Ben would change his mind someday. She liked dogs. She liked Spike. She thought he was a very nice white dog with a spike on his neck.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to build towers and houses with their blocks and cars. They also liked to draw pictures and write letters with their crayons and paper.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big envelope on the table. It had a stamp and a sticker that said "To Lily and Tom". She was curious and wanted to see what was inside. She grabbed the envelope and tried to open it.
+
+"Hey, that's our post!" Tom shouted. "Mum said we have to wait for her to open it with us. It's from Grandma and Grandpa. They sent us a surprise!"
+
+But Lily did not listen. She tore the envelope with her teeth and pulled out a card. It had a picture of a cake and candles and said "Happy Birthday Lily and Tom". Lily smiled and looked for more.
+
+She tore the card in half and found another envelope inside. It was smaller and had a shiny coin in it. Lily liked shiny things and wanted to keep the coin. She tore the envelope and took out the coin.
+
+"Stop it, Lily!" Tom cried. "You are ruining our post! That's our birthday money from Grandma and Grandpa. They gave us one each. You are being terrible!"
+
+But Lily did not care. She put the coin in her pocket and looked for more. She tore the other half of the card and found a photo. It was a photo of Grandma and Grandpa holding a puppy. They looked happy and wrote "We love you Lily and Tom. We have a new friend for you. His name is Spot. We can't wait to see you soon."
+
+Lily liked puppies and wanted to see Spot. She tore the photo in four pieces and threw them on the floor.
+
+"Enough, Lily!" Tom yelled. "You are breaking everything! You are making a mess! You are hurting Grandma and Grandpa's feelings! You are being very, very terrible!"
+
+But Lily did not hear him. She was too busy tearing the last piece of paper. It was a sticker that said "We miss you Lily and Tom. You are our sweethearts. Please be good and have fun."
+
+Lily tore the sticker and stuck it on her nose. She laughed and said "I am good and I have fun. I like to tear post. It is fun."
+
+Tom was very sad and very angry. He picked up the pieces of post and tried to put them back together. He wished Lily would stop being terrible and start being nice. He wished Mum would come and help him. He wished Grandma and Grandpa would come and bring Spot. He wished he had a better sister.
+Tom is a boy who likes to play with cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He likes to make them zoom and crash on the floor. He also likes to take cars from his friends when they are not looking.
+
+One day, Tom goes to the park with his mom and his friend Sam. Sam has a new car that is shiny and red. Tom wants the car very much. He waits until Sam is busy with the slide and then he takes the car and runs away.
+
+Sam sees Tom and cries. He tells his mom that Tom took his car. Sam's mom is angry and she goes to find Tom. She sees Tom hiding behind a tree with the car. She tells Tom that he is very bad and that he broke the law. The law is a rule that says you cannot take things that are not yours.
+
+Tom is scared and sorry. He gives the car back to Sam and says he is sorry. Sam is still sad but he forgives Tom. Sam's mom tells Tom that he should be calm and nice when he plays with others. She says that if he wants something, he should ask or share, not take.
+
+Tom learns his lesson and he promises to be calm and nice. He and Sam play with the car together and have fun. They are friends again and they follow the law. Tom's mom is proud of him and she gives him a hug.
+Tom and Lily were twins who loved to play outside. One day, they saw a big field with many sheep. They ran to the fence and looked at the sheep. The sheep were white and fluffy and had bells around their necks.
+
+"Hello, sheep!" Tom said. "Can we pet you?"
+
+"Baa, baa," the sheep said. "We are friendly, but be careful. Do not go inside the fence. The farmer does not like it."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They reached out their hands and touched the sheep's wool. It was soft and warm. They smiled and laughed.
+
+Then, they saw something shiny on the ground. It was a red apple. It looked delicious.
+
+"Look, Lily, an apple!" Tom said. "Let's share it."
+
+"OK, Tom," Lily said. "But we have to wash it first. It might be dirty."
+
+They ran to a nearby stream and washed the apple. Then, they took a big bite. It was sweet and juicy. They chewed and chewed.
+
+But they did not notice that the apple had a worm inside. The worm was brown and slimy and had teeth. It was angry and hungry.
+
+"Ouch!" Tom and Lily cried. "Something bit us!"
+
+They spit out the apple and saw the worm. It was wriggling and hissing. They were scared and disgusted.
+
+"Yuck, a worm!" Tom said. "How did it get in the apple?"
+
+"Baa, baa," the sheep said. "That apple was rotten. The farmer threw it away. You should not eat things that you find on the ground. They might be bad for you."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry and ashamed. They apologized to the sheep and the worm. They learned their lesson.
+
+"Thank you, sheep," Tom said. "You are wise and kind. We will not eat things that we find on the ground again. We will only eat things that our mom and dad give us."
+
+"Baa, baa," the sheep said. "You are welcome, Tom and Lily. You are brave and honest. We are glad that you are OK. Come and visit us again, but remember to stay outside the fence."
+
+Tom and Lily hugged the sheep and said goodbye. They ran back to their mom and dad and told them what happened. They were happy and grateful. They never ate rotten apples again.
+Lila and Ben were twins who liked to explore. One day, they found a big map in their dad's office. It had many colors and shapes and words on it. They wondered what they meant.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is where we live," Lila said, pointing to a red dot. "And this is where grandma lives," she said, pointing to a blue dot.
+
+"What is this?" Ben asked, pointing to a yellow shape. "It says east. Is that a place?"
+
+Lila shrugged. She did not know. She wondered what east was like. Maybe it had different animals and plants and people.
+
+"Let's go there," Ben said. "Maybe we can find something delicious to eat."
+
+They put on their hats and coats and took the map. They walked out of the door and turned right. They thought that was east. They walked and walked until they saw a big park. They saw swings and slides and a pond. They also saw a man with a cart. He had ice cream and cookies and candy.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lila said. "That looks delicious. Can we have some, please?"
+
+The man smiled and nodded. He gave them each a cone of ice cream and a cookie. They thanked him and sat on a bench. They licked and bit and enjoyed their treats.
+
+"This is the best east ever," Ben said.
+
+Lila agreed. She wondered what else they could find in east. She looked at the map and saw more colors and shapes and words. She wanted to see them all. She and Ben finished their ice cream and cookie and got up. They held hands and walked on. They were happy and curious. They liked to explore.
+Tommy was very excited to go to the zoo with his mom and dad. He wanted to see the lions, the monkeys, and the elephants. He packed his backpack with his water bottle, his hat, and his favorite toy car. He put on his shoes and ran to the door.
+
+But then he heard a loud noise outside. It was raining hard and there was thunder and lightning. His mom and dad looked at the weather app on their phone and said they had to delay their trip to the zoo. They said it was not safe to drive in the storm and they had to wait until it stopped.
+
+Tommy was very sad and angry. He threw his backpack on the floor and started to cry. He did not want to wait. He wanted to go to the zoo now. He said it was not fair and he hated the rain.
+
+His mom and dad tried to cheer him up. They said they could play some games, read some books, or watch some cartoons. They said they could still go to the zoo another day when the weather was better. They said they loved him and hugged him.
+
+But Tommy was still not happy. He did not want to play, read, or watch. He wanted to see the animals. He went to his room and slammed the door. He lay on his bed and closed his eyes. He hoped he would fall asleep and dream of the zoo.
+
+But he did not dream of the zoo. He had a nightmare. He dreamed that he was at the zoo, but all the animals were dirty and scary. They had big teeth and claws and they roared and growled at him. They chased him and tried to bite him. He ran and ran, but he could not find his mom and dad. He was alone and afraid.
+
+He woke up with a scream. He was sweating and shaking. He realized it was just a bad dream, but he felt very scared. He wanted his mom and dad. He got out of his bed and opened his door. He ran to their room and knocked.

+His mom and dad heard him and opened the door. They saw him crying and hugged him. They asked him what was wrong. He told them about his nightmare. They said they were sorry and they understood. They said it was normal to have bad dreams sometimes, especially when you are upset or disappointed. They said they were proud of him for being brave and telling them.
+
+They invited him to sleep with them in their big bed. They said they would keep him safe and warm. They said they would try to go to the zoo tomorrow if the rain stopped. They said they loved him and kissed him.
+
+Tommy felt better. He snuggled with his mom and dad and closed his eyes. He did not have any more nightmares. He dreamed of the zoo, but this time, all the animals were clean and friendly. They smiled and waved at him. He smiled and waved back. He was happy.
+Anna liked to play with her toys in the bathtub. She had a yellow duck, a blue boat, a red ball and a green frog. She made them swim and splash and talk to each other. She pretended that the bathtub was the universe and her toys were the stars and planets.
+
+One day, her mom came to the bathroom and said, "Anna, it's time to get out. You have been soaking for too long. You need to dry off and get ready for bed."
+
+"But mom, I'm having fun with my toys. They are exploring the universe. Can I stay a little longer?" Anna asked.
+
+"No, sweetheart, you can't. You have already soaked enough. Look, the water is getting cold and your fingers are wrinkly. Come on, let me help you out." Her mom said.
+
+Anna sighed and said goodbye to her toys. She let her mom wrap her in a big towel and carry her to her bedroom. She saw that her mom had organized her pajamas, her books and her teddy bear on her bed. She smiled and thanked her mom for being so nice. She put on her pajamas, hugged her teddy bear and listened to her mom read her a story. She felt cozy and happy. She dreamed of the universe and her toys.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big leather bag in the closet. It is brown and soft. They want to see what is inside.
+
+"Let me open it!" Lily says. She pulls the zipper.
+
+"No, let me!" Ben says. He pushes Lily's hand.
+
+They both tug and pull. The zipper breaks. The bag opens. Many things fall out. There are clothes, shoes, hats, and a chubby teddy bear.
+
+"Wow!" Lily and Ben say. They pick up the things and try them on. Lily puts on a hat and a scarf. Ben puts on a coat and a pair of boots. They look funny.
+
+"Look at me!" Lily says. She spins around.
+
+"Look at me!" Ben says. He stomps his feet.
+
+They laugh and giggle. They hug the teddy bear. They are happy. They do not see Mom coming.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" Mom says. She sees the mess. She sees the broken zipper. She is not happy.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Lily and Ben say. They look down.
+
+Mom sighs. She picks up the things and puts them back in the bag. She takes the teddy bear.
+
+"This is not your bag. This is Grandma's bag. She is coming to visit us. She will be sad if her things are ruined," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben feel bad. They love Grandma. They do not want to make her sad.
+
+"Can we say sorry to Grandma?" Lily says.
+
+"Can we give her the teddy bear?" Ben says.
+
+Mom smiles. She hugs Lily and Ben.
+
+"Of course you can. Grandma will forgive you. She loves you. And she loves the teddy bear. She will let you play with it when she comes," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They are glad. They wait for Grandma. They want to hug her and the teddy bear.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play in the living room. They had many toys and books, but their favorite thing was the fireplace. They liked to watch the flames and feel the warmth. Sometimes, they pretended to be explorers or pirates or fairies near the fireplace.
+
+One day, their mom told them to be careful and not go too close to the fireplace. She said it was very hot and could hurt them. She went to the kitchen to make some cookies. Tom and Anna nodded, but they did not listen. They wanted to see the fire better and touch the wood and the stones.
+
+"Look, Anna, this wood is so smooth and shiny," Tom said, picking up a log. "I wonder what it feels like to burn."
+
+"Don't be silly, Tom, you can't burn wood. It's too hard," Anna said, grabbing a stone. "But this stone is so pretty and sparkly. I want to keep it."
+
+They both moved closer to the fireplace, holding their things. They did not see the sparks that flew out of the fire. They did not hear their mom calling them from the kitchen. They did not smell the smoke that filled the room.
+
+Suddenly, Tom tripped over a toy and fell into the fireplace. He dropped the log and it caught fire. He screamed and tried to get out, but he was too clumsy. He burned his hands and his face and his clothes. Anna dropped the stone and ran to help him, but she was too late. She also fell into the fireplace and burned herself. They both cried and complained, but no one heard them.
+
+Their mom came back to the living room and saw the fire. She was shocked and scared. She called for help, but it was too late. The fire had spread to the curtains and the carpet and the sofa. The living room was on fire. Tom and Anna were on fire. They did not survive. Their mom was very sad and angry. She wished they had listened to her and stayed away from the fireplace. She wished they had been more careful and not so clumsy. She wished they were still alive.

+
+One day, they went to the lake with their dad and brought their own fishing rods. Their dad gave them some worms to put on their hooks and showed them how to cast their lines. Ben and Sam waited for a fish to bite, but nothing happened. They saw their dad catch a big fish that was heavy and shiny. He smiled and said, "Look, boys, this is a trout. It's a good fish to eat."
+
+Ben and Sam felt sad. They wanted to catch a trout too, but they only had small rods and worms. They thought their dad had a better rod and bait. They started to argue with each other.
+
+"Your rod is too short. You can't catch a big fish with that," Ben said to Sam.
+
+"Your worm is too fat. You can't catch a big fish with that," Sam said to Ben.
+
+They pulled and pushed each other, trying to get the better rod and worm. Their dad saw them and said, "Stop, boys, stop. You don't need to fight. You can catch a big fish with any rod and worm, if you are patient and quiet. The fish can hear you and they will swim away. Why don't you try to work together and help each other?"
+
+Ben and Sam felt sorry. They said sorry to each other and to their dad. They decided to work together and help each other. They shared their rods and worms and cast their lines again. They waited patiently and quietly. Soon, they felt a tug on their lines. They pulled and pulled and saw two big fish on their hooks. They were trout, just like their dad's. They were heavy and shiny. They were happy and proud.
+
+They showed their fish to their dad and he said, "Well done, boys, well done. You are good fishermen, just like me. You caught big fish with your own rods and worms. You don't need to fight. You need to work together and help each other. That's how you catch big fish."
+
+Ben and Sam smiled and hugged their dad. They thanked him for taking them to the lake and teaching them how to fish. They said they loved him and they loved fishing. They took their fish home and ate them for dinner. They were delicious.

+
+"Look, my tower is higher than yours!" Lily said. She smiled and put another block on top.
+
+"No, it's not!" Max said. He frowned and put another block on top. "Now mine is higher!"
+
+They kept adding blocks until they ran out of them. Then they measured their towers with a ruler. Lily's tower was 12 inches and Max's tower was 11 inches.
+
+"I win, I win!" Lily shouted. She jumped up and down and clapped her hands.
+
+"That's not fair!" Max said. He was angry and sad. He pushed Lily's tower and made it fall down. The blocks crashed and scattered on the floor.
+
+"Hey, that's mean!" Lily said. She was shocked and hurt. She pushed Max's tower and made it fall down too. The blocks crashed and scattered on the floor.
+
+They both started to cry. They looked at each other and felt sorry. They said sorry and hugged each other.
+
+"Let's play something else," Lily said. She wiped her tears and smiled.
+
+"Okay, let's play something else," Max said. He wiped his tears and smiled.
+
+They picked up the blocks and put them in a box. Then they went to the kitchen and asked their mom for a snack. She gave them some cookies and lemonade.
+
+"Mmm, these cookies are yummy," Lily said. She bit into a cookie and chewed.
+
+"Yuck, this lemonade is sour," Max said. He sipped the lemonade and made a face.
+
+They laughed and traded their drinks. They were happy and friends again.
+Anna liked to stretch every morning. She felt good when she did. She stretched her arms, her legs, her neck and her back. She liked to make funny noises when she stretched, like "ahh" and "ooh" and "meow".
+
+One Tuesday, she woke up early and wanted to stretch. But she saw her brother Ben sleeping next to her. He was snoring very loud. Anna did not want to wake him up. She thought he would be grumpy. She decided to stretch very quietly.
+
+She stretched her arms, but she did not say "ahh". She stretched her legs, but she did not say "ooh". She stretched her neck, but she did not say "meow". She stretched her back, but she did not say anything. She was very careful.
+
+But then, she felt something hurt. She had stretched too much. She had pulled a muscle in her back. She cried out loud. "Ow! Ow! Ow!"
+
+Ben woke up and saw Anna crying. He asked her what was wrong. Anna told him she had hurt her back. Ben felt sorry for her. He hugged her and said, "It's okay, Anna. I will help you. Let's go to Mommy. She will make you feel better."
+
+Anna smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother. I love you."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "I love you too, Anna. But next time, don't stretch so much. Or make some noise. I don't mind."
+Lily loved to bake with her mom. They would mix flour, eggs, sugar and butter in a big bowl. Then they would roll out the dough and cut out shapes with cookie cutters. Lily liked to make stars, hearts and flowers. Mom liked to make circles and squares.

+But then, something bad happened. The wind blew very hard outside. It made a loud noise. It shook the windows and the doors. Lily and her mom got scared. They ran to the living room and hugged each other. They forgot about the cookies.
+
+When the wind stopped, they remembered the cookies. They ran to the kitchen. But it was too late. The cookies were burned. They were black and hard and smelled bad. Lily and her mom felt sad. They had spoiled the cookies.

+
+One day, Poppy saw a new thing in the yard. It was a big, red, shiny thing. It looked like a ball, but it was not a ball. It was a balloon. Poppy wanted to play with the balloon. He ran to the balloon and bit it with his teeth.
+
+But the balloon did not like to be bitten. It made a loud noise and popped. Poppy was scared and sad. He had broken the balloon. He did not know what to do.
+
+"Poppy, what did you do?" his mom asked. She came to the yard and saw the balloon pieces. She was not angry, but she was worried. She hugged Poppy and said, "It's okay, Poppy. You did not know. The balloon was not a toy. It was for a party. But we have more balloons. And we have your ball. Do you want to play with your ball?"
+
+Poppy nodded and wagged his tail. He was sorry for the balloon, but he was glad his mom was not mad. He liked his ball better than the balloon. He learned that some things are not for biting. He was a good and happy dog.
+Sara and Tom were on a boat with their mom and dad. They wanted to see the big fish and the dolphins in the water. But the boat was very slow and the water was very quiet. Sara and Tom thought it was boring.
+
+"Can we go faster, dad?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sorry, son, we have to stay in the harbor. It's not safe to go out to the sea today. There's a big storm coming," dad said.
+
+Sara and Tom sighed. They looked at the other boats in the harbor. They all looked the same. They saw some people fishing, but they didn't catch anything.
+
+"Can we do something fun, mom?" Sara asked.
+
+"Sure, honey, why don't you play with this ball? You can squeeze it and make it squeak," mom said. She gave Sara a yellow ball with a smiley face on it.
+
+Sara took the ball and squeezed it. It made a loud squeak. Sara smiled. She squeezed it again and again. She liked the sound.
+
+Tom heard the squeak and looked at Sara. He wanted the ball too. He reached for it and tried to take it from Sara.

+"Hey, that's mine!" Sara said. She pulled the ball back and squeezed it harder.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Tom said. He pulled the ball too and squeezed it harder.
+
+Sara and Tom started to fight over the ball. They both squeezed it so hard that it popped. The ball made a loud bang and flew out of their hands. It landed in the water.
+
+Sara and Tom gasped. They looked at the water and saw the ball floating away. They felt sad. They had broken their toy.
+
+Mom and dad heard the bang and saw the ball in the water. They shook their heads.
+
+"Look what you did, Sara and Tom. You were not nice to each other. You should have shared the ball. Now you have nothing to play with," mom said.
+
+Sara and Tom felt sorry. They looked at each other and said, "We're sorry, mom. We're sorry, dad. We're sorry, ball."
+
+They hugged each other and squeezed each other gently. They learned their lesson. They decided to be nice to each other and have fun with what they had.

+
+Tom reaches the flag. He is happy. He pulls the flag. But the flag is stuck. He pulls harder. The flag comes off. But the pole falls too. It makes a loud noise. Tom and Lily are scared. They run away.

+One day, they went to the zoo with their mom and dad. They saw many animals they had never seen before. They saw lions, monkeys, elephants, giraffes and more. They were very excited and curious.
+
+They came to a big cage with a big bear. The bear was brown and furry and had a big nose. He looked very sleepy and bored. Jill and Jack wanted to hug him and make him happy.
+
+"Can we hug the bear, mom?" Jill asked.
+
+"No, honey, you can't. The bear is not a pet. He is wild and dangerous. He might hurt you if you get too close. You can only look at him from here," mom said.
+
+"But he looks so sad and lonely. Maybe he needs a hug," Jack said.
+
+He did not listen to mom. He climbed over the fence and ran towards the bear. He reached out his arms and tried to hug him.
+
+The bear woke up and saw Jack. He did not like Jack. He did not want a hug. He was angry and scared. He roared and bit Jack.

+Lily was very mad. She chased after Max. She wanted her shoe back. She shouted at him to stop.
+

+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play dress-up. They had many hats, coats, and shoes to pretend to be different people. One day, they found a big box in the attic with more things to wear. They opened it and saw a wig, a dress, a scarf, and a mustache.
+
+"Look, I can be a famous singer!" Tim said, putting on the wig and the dress. He grabbed a spoon and sang a silly song.
+
+"I can be a famous detective!" Sam said, putting on the scarf and the mustache. He took a magnifying glass and looked around.
+
+They had fun playing in the attic, until Tim saw a spider on the wall. He was scared of spiders and screamed. He ran to the door, but he slipped on the dress and fell down. The wig flew off his head and landed on the spider.
+
+Sam heard Tim scream and ran to help him. He saw the spider with the wig and laughed. He thought it was funny and took a picture with his magnifying glass.
+
+"Stop laughing, Sam! It's not funny!" Tim said, crying. He was hurt and scared.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tim. I didn't mean to laugh at you. Are you okay?" Sam said, putting down the magnifying glass and the mustache. He hugged Tim and helped him up.
+
+They went downstairs and showed their mom the picture. She smiled and said, "You boys are very creative, but you should be careful when you play. You don't want to slip and hurt yourself, or scare each other with spiders. And you don't need a wig or a mustache to be famous. You are already famous to me, because you are my sons and I love you."
+
+Tim and Sam smiled and said, "We love you too, mom." They learned that playing dress-up was fun, but they should be kind and safe. And they learned that being famous was not as important as being loved.

+
+Her mom said, "Lila, I love you too! You did a wonderful job. You played the flute with your heart. That is the best way to play. You are a very good flute player. And you are a very good daughter."

+
+One day, Sara's brother Tom came into her room. He saw the tray with the toys and wanted to play too. He grabbed Lily and pulled her dress. Sara was angry and shouted, "No, Tom, that's my Lily! Give her back!" Tom did not listen and ran away with Lily.
+

+Anna loved to bake with her mom. They made cakes and cookies and pies. Anna liked to mix and stir and taste. She also liked to watch the oven and see the dough rise and turn brown.
+
+One day, Anna saw a kitten outside her window. It was dark and cold and the kitten looked sad and hungry. Anna wanted to help the kitten. She asked her mom if she could give it some food.
+
+"Of course, dear, but be careful. Don't go too far and don't talk to strangers. And come back soon, we have to finish our baking," her mom said.
+
+Anna nodded and took a plate of cookies. She went outside and looked for the kitten. She saw it hiding under a bush. She called to it softly and held out a cookie.
+
+"Here, kitty, kitty. Don't be scared. I have something yummy for you," she said.
+
+The kitten came out slowly and sniffed the cookie. It licked it and purred. Anna smiled and petted the kitten. It was soft and warm and cute. She wanted to keep it.
+
+"Can I take you home, kitty? You can be my friend and play with me. And I can give you more cookies and milk and a nice bed," she said.
+
+The kitten meowed and rubbed against her leg. Anna picked it up and hugged it. She was happy. She forgot about her mom and the baking and the time. She walked away with the kitten, looking for a place to play.
+
+She didn't see the big car coming. She didn't hear the horn or the brakes. She didn't feel the pain. She only saw the kitten fly out of her arms and land on the road. She only heard its cry. She only felt its blood.
+

+
+"I'm going to the park to meet my friends," the doll answered in Sara's voice.

+"Sure, you can come. But you have to be careful. There are some scary things in the park," the doll warned.
+
+"Like what?" Ben wanted to know.
+
+"Like big dogs and loud noises and mean people," the doll said.
+
+Sara and Ben looked at each other. They remembered the last time they went to the park with their mom. They saw a big dog that barked at them and made them cry. They heard a loud noise that sounded like a boom and made them jump. They met a mean person who took their ball and ran away. They did not like the park. It was not a fun place.
+
+"Maybe we should stay here," Ben suggested.
+
+"Maybe you're right," Sara agreed.
+
+They put their toys away and decided to play something else. They did not want to go to the park. They wanted to stay in their ordinary home, where they felt safe and happy.

+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big jar in the kitchen. The jar is modern. It has a blue lid and a picture of a star.
+
+"Wow, look at this jar!" Tom says. "It is so big and pretty. I wonder what is inside."
+
+"Maybe it has cookies or candy," Anna says. "Let's open it and see."
+
+They try to open the jar, but it is too tight. They pull and twist, but the lid does not move.
+
+"Ouch, this is hard," Tom says. "My hands hurt."
+
+"Me too," Anna says. "Maybe we need help."
+
+They look around and see a stool. The stool is small and wooden. It has four legs and a round top.
+
+"Hey, I have an idea," Tom says. "Maybe we can use the stool to open the jar. We can put the jar on the stool and push the lid with our feet."
+
+"That sounds fun," Anna says. "Let's try it."
+
+They carry the jar to the stool and put it on the top. They climb on the stool and stand on the lid. They push with their feet, but the lid does not move.
+
+"Uh-oh, this is not working," Tom says. "The jar is too big for the stool. It does not fit."
+
+"Look out, it is going to fall!" Anna says.
+
+The jar wobbles and slides off the stool. It falls on the floor and breaks. The jar is empty. There is nothing inside.
+
+"Oh no, we broke the jar!" Tom says. "We are in trouble."
+
+"Sorry, sorry, sorry," Anna says. "We did not mean to."
+
+They hear footsteps and see Mom coming. Mom sees the broken jar and the mess on the floor. She is not happy.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asks. "Who broke the jar?"
+
+Tom and Anna look at each other. They are scared and sad. They do not know what to say.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their toy cars. They have a big truck and a small car. They want to load the car on the truck and take it to the park.
+
+"Can I drive the truck?" Ben asks.
+
+"No, I want to drive the truck. You can drive the car," Lily says.
+
+"But the car is too small. I want the big truck," Ben says.
+
+They start to argue. They pull the truck and the car from each other. The truck and the car fall on the floor. They make a loud noise.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to see what is wrong.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asks.
+
+"We are playing with the truck and the car. But we can't agree who drives what," Lily says.
+
+Mom looks at the truck and the car. She has an idea.
+
+"Why don't you take turns? You can both drive the truck and the car. First, Lily can load the car on the truck and drive to the park. Then, Ben can unload the car and drive it around the park. After that, Ben can load the car on the truck and drive back home. Then, Lily can unload the car and drive it in the yard. How does that sound?" Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben think about it. They like Mom's idea.
+
+"OK, let's do that. Thank you, Mom," they say.
+
+Mom smiles. She helps them load the car on the truck. She gives them a fancy hat and a fancy scarf to wear. She says they look like real drivers.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They start the truck and the car. They wave to Mom. They go to the park. They have fun. They take turns. They share. They are good friends.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They race them on the floor and make vroom-vroom sounds.
+
+One day, Tom finds a very old car in the attic. It is dusty and rusty. It has no wheels and no windows. Tom thinks it is ugly and broken. He wants to throw it away.
+
+But Jen likes the old car. She thinks it is special and rare. She wants to restore it. She asks Tom to help her. She says they can find new wheels and windows and paint it a nice color.
+
+Tom and Jen work hard to restore the old car. They go to the garage and ask Dad for some tools and parts. They go to the store and buy some paint and stickers. They clean and fix and decorate the old car.
+
+When they are done, the old car looks shiny and new. It has four wheels and two windows. It is red and yellow and has stars and stripes. Tom and Jen are proud of their work. They decide to race it with their other cars.
+
+They put the old car on the floor and push it with their hands. The old car goes very fast. It has a lot of speed. It passes all the other cars and wins the race. Tom and Jen cheer and hug. They are happy.
+
+They take the old car to the kitchen and show it to Mom. Mom is surprised and impressed. She says they did a great job. She gives them a treat. She gives them lemonade and cookies.
+
+Tom and Jen drink the lemonade and eat the cookies. The lemonade is sour. It makes them pucker their lips and squint their eyes. They laugh and make funny faces. They like the sour lemonade. They like the cookies. They like the old car. They like each other. They are friends.
+Sam and Mia liked to play in the sand near the sea. They made castles and bridges and tunnels with their buckets and shovels. Sometimes they saw little animals in the water, like crabs and fish and shrimp. Shrimp were pink and had long tails and many legs.
+
+One day, Sam found a big shell in the sand. He showed it to Mia and said, "Look, Mia, this is a shell. It is pretty and shiny. I think there is something inside." He put the shell to his ear and listened. He heard a soft sound, like the sea.
+
+Mia wanted to see the shell too. She asked Sam, "Can I hold the shell, Sam? I want to hear the sound." Sam gave the shell to Mia and she put it to her ear. She smiled and said, "You are right, Sam, it is pretty and shiny and it makes a sound."
+
+But then, something happened. The shell opened and a shrimp came out. The shrimp was not happy to be in the shell. It wanted to go back to the water. It used its tail to shoot water at Sam and Mia. The water was cold and wet and made them jump.
+
+Sam and Mia were surprised and scared. They dropped the shell and ran away. The shrimp crawled out of the shell and went back to the sea. It was cheerful and free.
+
+Sam and Mia looked at each other and laughed. They said, "That was a funny shrimp. It shot water at us. We are wet and cold. Let's go home and change our clothes." They picked up their buckets and shovels and walked to their house. They still liked to play in the sand near the sea, but they did not touch the shells anymore.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they found a big bush with green leaves that smelled nice. Lily picked a leaf and put it in her mouth. "Mmm, this is mint," she said. "It makes my tongue feel cold and fresh."
+
+Ben wanted to try too, but he saw something move behind the bush. He heard a low growl and saw two yellow eyes. He was frightened and grabbed Lily's hand. "Lily, there is a big animal behind the bush. It sounds angry. We have to run!"
+
+Lily looked and saw the animal too. It was a big dog with brown fur and sharp teeth. It barked and jumped out of the bush. Lily and Ben screamed and ran to the house. They banged on the door and called for their mom.
+
+Mom opened the door and saw the twins and the dog. She was not frightened. She smiled and said, "Don't be scared, kids. This is Rover, our new neighbor's dog. He is very friendly and just wants to play. He likes mint too, that's why he was hiding behind the bush."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the dog again. He wagged his tail and licked his lips. He did not look angry anymore. He looked happy and silly. Lily and Ben felt silly too. They laughed and said, "Sorry, Rover. We did not know you were a nice dog. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+Rover barked and nodded. He followed the twins into the garden. They played with a ball and a rope and some mint leaves. They had fun and became friends. Lily and Ben learned to listen to the dog and not to judge him by his looks. They also learned to share their mint with him. Rover learned to be gentle and not to scare the twins. They all learned to be kind and happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing outside. They saw a big mailbox near the road. It was red and shiny. Lily had an idea.
+
+"Let's see if we can fit inside the mailbox!" she said to Ben.
+
+Ben was not sure. He thought it might be naughty to go inside the mailbox. He looked around. He did not see anyone.
+
+"Okay, let's try," he said to Lily.
+
+Lily went first. She opened the mailbox and climbed in. She was small and thin. She fit inside the mailbox. She giggled.
+
+"Come on, Ben, it's fun!" she called to him.
+
+Ben followed her. He opened the mailbox and tried to climb in. He was big and chubby. He did not fit inside the mailbox. He got stuck. He cried.
+
+"Help, help, I'm stuck!" he shouted.
+
+Lily tried to push him out. She could not. She got scared.
+
+"Sorry, Ben, I can't help you!" she said.
+
+Just then, they heard a loud noise. It was the mailman. He came to the mailbox. He saw Ben's legs sticking out. He was angry.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing in there? Get out of there, you naughty kids!" he yelled.
+
+He pulled Ben out of the mailbox. He was red and sweaty. He was sore. He ran to Lily. They both said sorry to the mailman.
+
+The mailman shook his head. He told them to go home and never play with the mailbox again. He drove away.
+
+Lily and Ben felt bad. They learned their lesson. They never tried to fit inside the mailbox again.
+Sam and Lily wanted to go to the farm with their mom and dad. They liked to see the animals and feed them. They saw cows, pigs, chickens, and horses. They also saw a mule. A mule is like a horse, but with big ears and a different tail.
+
+"Can we ride the mule, mom?" Sam asked.
+
+"No, Sam, the mule is not for riding. He is for working. He helps the farmer carry things," mom said.
+
+"But I want to ride the mule, mom. He looks fun," Sam said.
+
+"Me too, me too," Lily said.
+
+"Sorry, kids, the mule is not for riding. He is expensive and he does not like strangers. He might kick or bite you," dad said.
+
+Sam and Lily did not listen. They ran to the mule and tried to climb on his back. The mule did not like that. He resisted. He shook his head and made a loud noise. He moved his legs and tried to get them off. Sam and Lily were scared. They fell off the mule and hurt themselves.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow," they cried.
+
+Mom and dad ran to them and hugged them. They checked if they were okay. They had some scratches and bruises, but nothing serious.
+
+"Are you okay, kids?" mom asked.
+
+"Yes, mom, we are okay," Sam said.
+
+"We are sorry, mom. We were bad. We did not listen to you," Lily said.
+
+"It's okay, kids. We are glad you are okay. But you have to listen to us. We know what is best for you. The mule is not for riding. He is for working. He is expensive and he does not like strangers. He might kick or bite you," dad said.
+
+"We understand, dad. We will not do it again. We will be good," Sam and Lily said.
+
+Mom and dad smiled and kissed them. They gave them some band-aids and some ice cream. They said they still loved them. They said they could see the other animals, but not the mule. Sam and Lily agreed. They learned their lesson. They did not want to ride the mule anymore. They wanted to be good.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They had a big bowl of salad, some bread, and some cheese. They also had a bunch of celery that Mom had given them.
+
+"Let's make celery soup!" said Lily. She took a knife and tried to cut the celery. But the knife was too big and the celery was too hard. She could not cut it.
+
+"Let me try!" said Ben. He took the knife and tried to cut the celery. But he was too small and the knife was too heavy. He could not cut it either.
+
+They heard Mom coming. They quickly put the knife back in the drawer and hid the celery under the table. They did not want Mom to see their mess.
+
+"Hi, kids! What are you doing?" asked Mom. She smiled and looked at their salad, bread, and cheese. "That looks delicious! Can I have some?"
+
+"Sure, Mom!" said Lily and Ben. They gave Mom a plate and some salad. They were obedient and did not tell Mom about the celery.
+
+Mom took a bite and said, "Mmm, this is very good! You are such good chefs! But what is this?" She pointed to something green sticking out from under the table.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They knew they were caught. They said, "Sorry, Mom. That is celery. We tried to make celery soup, but we could not cut it."
+
+Mom laughed and said, "That's okay, sweeties. I'm glad you tried. But next time, please ask me for help. Cutting celery is hard and dangerous. You could hurt yourself with the knife. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "Yes, Mom. We understand. We will ask you next time."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I love you, kids. You are very creative and brave. But you also have to be careful and obedient. Now, let's end this game and clean up the kitchen. Then we can have some real soup for lunch. How does that sound?"
+
+Lily and Ben said, "That sounds great, Mom. We love you too. And we love soup!" They helped Mom clean up the kitchen and threw away the celery. They learned their lesson and never tried to cut celery again.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a bird on a tree. The bird was brown and had a red spot on its head. It was singing a pretty song.
+
+"Look, a bird!" Tim said. "I want to touch it."
+
+"No, Tim, you can't touch the bird. It might fly away or bite you," Lily said.
+
+"But I want to see what it feels like. Maybe it is soft and warm," Tim said. He reached out his hand to the bird.
+
+The bird saw Tim's hand and flew to his face. It pecked his nose with its beak. Tim cried out in pain and surprise.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The bird hurt me!" Tim said. He rubbed his nose and tears came out of his eyes.
+
+Lily ran to Tim and hugged him. She tried to make him feel better.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tim. The bird was scared of you. It didn't mean to hurt you. It was just trying to protect itself," Lily said.
+
+"Really?" Tim asked. He sniffed and looked at the bird. The bird was back on the tree, still singing.
+
+"Yes, really. The bird is harmless. It only tastes with its beak. It doesn't eat people. It eats seeds and worms and berries," Lily said.
+
+"Oh. I didn't know that. I guess I was wrong. I'm sorry, bird. I won't try to touch you again," Tim said.
+
+He smiled at the bird and waved his hand. The bird tilted its head and chirped. It seemed to forgive Tim.
+
+Tim and Lily learned a lesson that day. They learned to respect the bird and its space. They also learned that some things are better to look at than to touch. They enjoyed the rest of their day in the park, listening to the bird's song.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to pretend they were wizards and witches, and used their mom's old scarves and hats as costumes. They also found a glass jar in the kitchen that they used as a magic wand.
+
+"Look, Ben, I can make things vanish with my wand!" Lily said, waving the jar at a yellow ball. "Vanish, vanish, vanish!"
+
+The ball did not vanish, but the jar slipped from Lily's hand and crashed on the floor. The glass broke into many pieces, and some of them flew into Ben's face. He screamed and cried, and blood came out of his nose and cheek.
+
+"Ben, Ben, are you okay?" Lily asked, scared and sorry. She ran to him and tried to hug him, but he pushed her away.
+
+"Go away, Lily, you hurt me!" Ben shouted, angry and in pain. "You are a bad witch, and I don't want to play with you anymore!"
+
+Lily felt very sad and guilty. She wished she could make the glass and the blood vanish, and make Ben happy again. But she could not. She had broken the glass, and Ben's face, and their game. She started to cry too, and wished she could vanish herself.
+Lily was a lonely girl. She had no friends to play with. She only had her chair. Her chair was old and brown. It had four legs and a soft seat. Lily liked to sit on her chair and read books.
+
+One day, Lily heard a knock on the door. She opened it and saw a boy. The boy had a big smile and a red hat. He said, "Hello, I am Tom. I just moved next door. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Lily was surprised and happy. She said, "Yes, I do. Come in, please. This is my chair. It is my only friend."
+
+Tom looked at the chair and said, "Your chair is nice, but it looks sad. Why don't you send it to someone who needs it more? Maybe a grandma or a grandpa who has no chair to sit on. They would be very happy to have your chair."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She loved her chair, but she also wanted to make someone else happy. She said, "OK, I will send my chair to a grandma or a grandpa. But how do I do that?"
+
+Tom said, "Don't worry, I will help you. We can write a note and put it on the chair. Then we can ask my dad to drive us to the post office. They will send your chair to a grandma or a grandpa. And then you will have a new friend."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Tom. You are very kind. I think you are my new friend too."
+
+They hugged and went to write a note for the chair. Lily felt less lonely and more happy. She hoped that her chair would find a good home and a new friend too.
+Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toy guns. They pretended to be cowboys and robbers, and ran around the yard, shooting at each other. Sometimes they hid behind the trees, or the fence, or the shed.
+
+One day, they saw a big shiny car stop in front of their neighbor's house. A man and a woman got out of the car. They wore fancy clothes and had big bags. Ben and Sam thought they were wealthy, and maybe they had a lot of money in their bags.
+
+"Let's pretend they are robbers, and we are the cowboys who stop them," Ben whispered to Sam.
+
+"OK, but be careful, they might see us," Sam whispered back.
+
+They sneaked closer to the car, holding their toy guns. They waited for the right moment to shoot. But they did not notice that the car had a bell on the hood. When they bumped into the car, the bell rang loudly.
+
+The man and the woman heard the bell and turned around. They saw Ben and Sam with their toy guns, and they looked angry.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing? Get away from our car!" the man shouted.
+
+Ben and Sam were scared. They dropped their toy guns and ran away.
+
+"Sorry, sorry, we were just playing," they said.
+
+They ran back to their yard, and did not play with their toy guns for a long time. They learned that it was not nice to shoot at people, even if they were pretending.
+Tom and Anna were playing with magnets. They liked to stick them on the fridge and make shapes. Tom had a big magnet and Anna had a small one.
+
+"Look, my magnet is stronger than yours!" Tom said. He tried to pull Anna's magnet away from her.
+
+"No, it's not!" Anna said. She held on to her magnet. "Let go of my magnet!"
+
+Tom did not let go. He pulled harder and harder. Anna pulled harder and harder. They both wanted the magnet.
+
+Suddenly, the magnet snapped out of their hands and flew across the room. It hit the lamp and made a loud noise. The lamp fell over and broke.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came into the kitchen. She saw the broken lamp and the magnets on the floor. She was angry.
+
+"What did you do?" Mom asked. "Why did you break the lamp?"
+
+Tom and Anna looked at each other. They did not know what to say. They did not know that magnets could fly. They were ignorant.
+
+Mom sighed. She picked up the magnets and the lamp. She explained to Tom and Anna that magnets have a force that can attract or repel other magnets. She said that they should not play with magnets near things that can break. She said that they should be careful and respectful with their toys.
+
+She provided them with some paper and crayons. She told them to draw something nice and apologize to each other. She said that she loved them and hoped they learned their lesson.
+
+Tom and Anna felt sorry. They said sorry to Mom and to each other. They drew some pictures of magnets and flowers and hearts. They hugged and smiled. They learned something new. They were not ignorant anymore.
+Lily and Max are friends. They like to play at the park. They swing, slide and run. They have fun.
+
+One day, Lily brings a snack. It is an avocado. She likes avocados. They are green and soft. She cuts it in half and gives one part to Max.
+
+"Here, Max. Try this. It is yummy," she says.
+
+Max looks at the avocado. He does not like it. It is not yummy. It is yucky. He makes a face.
+
+"Yuck, Lily. I do not want this. It is bad. It is not a snack. It is a monster," he says.
+
+He throws the avocado on the ground. He runs away.
+
+Lily is sad. She does not understand. She likes avocados. They are not monsters. They are fruits. She picks up the avocado. It is dirty and squished. She cannot eat it.
+
+She cries. She wants her friend back. She wants to share her snack. She wants to play at the park. She does not want to be sad.
+Sara and Ben are playing with blocks. They want to make a big tower. Sara puts a block on top of another block. Ben puts a block next to Sara's block. They do this many times.
+
+"Look, our tower is so high!" Sara says.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "But it needs something more. I have an idea!"
+
+Ben runs to get a paper. He cuts it with scissors. He makes a zigzag shape. He puts it on top of the tower.
+
+"Wow, that looks cool!" Sara says. "It is like a crown!"
+
+But then, a big wind comes. It blows the paper zigzag away. It makes the tower shake. The blocks fall down. Snap! Snap! Snap! The blocks break into pieces.
+
+"Oh no!" Sara and Ben say. "Our tower is gone!"
+
+They are very sad. They start to cry.
+
+Tommy is watching them. He is older than Sara and Ben. He thinks they are stupid. He laughs at them.
+
+"Haha, you are so stupid!" Tommy says. "You can't make a tower with blocks and paper! You need glue and nails!"
+
+Sara and Ben are angry. They don't like Tommy. They pick up some blocks. They throw them at Tommy. The blocks hit Tommy. Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
+
+"Stop it! Stop it!" Tommy says. "That hurts!"
+
+Sara and Ben stop. They look at each other. They smile. They are not sad anymore. They are happy.
+
+They say to Tommy, "You are stupid! You can't laugh at us! You need to be nice and share!"
+
+They run away. They find more blocks. They start to make a new tower. They don't need a paper zigzag. They need each other.
+Tim and Mia were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to skip, swing, slide and run. They had a lot of fun.
+
+One day, they saw a big tank in the park. It was green and shiny. It had a long nose and a big wheel. Tim and Mia were curious. They wanted to see the tank.
+
+They ran to the tank and climbed on it. They pretended to be soldiers. They made loud noises and moved the nose. They laughed and smiled.
+
+But then, they heard a voice. It was a man. He was angry. He said, "Hey, you kids, get off my tank! This is not a toy. This is my work. Go away!"
+
+Tim and Mia were scared. They jumped off the tank and ran away. They did not want to make the man mad. They did not want to get in trouble.
+
+They found a bench and sat down. They were sad. They did not understand why the man was so mean. They did not understand why he had a tank in the park. They did not understand why he did not want to share.
+
+They looked at the tank. It was alone. It had no friends. It did not play. It did not laugh. It did not smile.
+
+Tim and Mia felt sorry for the tank. They thought, maybe the tank was lonely. Maybe the tank wanted to have fun. Maybe the tank needed a hug.
+
+They decided to go back to the tank. They said, "Hello, tank. We are sorry we made you angry. We did not mean to. We just wanted to play with you. You are very cool. Do you want to be our friend?"
+
+The tank did not answer. It did not move. It did not make any noise. But Tim and Mia felt something. They felt a warm and soft feeling. They felt the tank was happy. They felt the tank liked them.
+
+They hugged the tank. They said, "We like you, too, tank. You are not alone. You have us. We are your friends. We will come back and play with you again. We will make you laugh and smile. We will have fun together."
+
+The tank still did not answer. But it did something else. It blinked its lights. It made a small beep. It was like a wink and a smile. It was like a thank you.
+
+Tim and Mia smiled back. They skipped away. They were happy. They had a new friend. They had a tank.
+Sara was a little bird who loved to fly. She had blue and yellow feathers and a long tail. She liked to sing and play with her friends in the sky. But one day, a big storm came and Sara got hurt. A strong wind broke her wing and she fell to the ground.
+
+She was very sad and scared. She could not fly or sing anymore. She felt miserable. She lay on the grass and cried. She wished someone would help her.
+
+Then she heard a voice. "Hello, little bird. What is wrong?" It was a friendly dog who saw Sara on the ground. He came closer and sniffed her.
+
+"Hello, dog. I am Sara. I have a broken wing. I can not fly or sing. I am miserable," Sara said.
+
+"I am sorry, Sara. That is very bad. But do not worry. I will help you. I am Max. I am a good dog. I will take you to my home. There you will be safe and warm. Maybe your wing will heal," Max said.
+
+"Thank you, Max. You are very kind. But how will you take me to your home?" Sara asked.
+
+"I will carry you in my mouth. But gently, so I do not hurt you more. Trust me, Sara. I am your friend," Max said.
+
+He opened his mouth and picked up Sara. He was careful not to bite her. He held her softly. Sara felt his warm breath and his wet tongue. She was afraid at first, but then she relaxed. She saw that Max was gentle and friendly. She decided to trust him.
+
+She bowed her head and said, "Thank you, Max. You are my friend. Please take me to your home."
+
+Max wagged his tail and said, "You are welcome, Sara. You are my friend too. Come, let us go."
+
+He walked away with Sara in his mouth. He hoped she would get better soon. He wanted to see her fly and sing again. He was happy to have a new friend.
+Tim and Mia were playing with their wagon in the park. They liked to fill it with leaves, rocks, and pine cones and pull it around. Sometimes they pretended it was a train or a spaceship.
+
+"Look, Mia, I found a big shiny rock!" Tim said, holding up his discovery. "Let's put it in our wagon."
+
+"OK, Tim, but be careful. It looks heavy," Mia said.
+
+Tim tried to lift the rock, but it was too heavy for him. He dropped it on his foot and cried out in pain. "Ow, ow, ow! That hurts!"
+
+Mia ran to him and hugged him. "Are you OK, Tim? Let me see your foot."
+
+Tim stopped crying and showed her his foot. It had a small cut and was bleeding a little. "It's OK, Mia. It's just a scratch. But I'm embarrassed. I was silly to try to lift that rock."
+
+Mia smiled and kissed his foot. "You're not silly, Tim. You're brave and curious. And you're my best friend. Come on, let's go to the water fountain and wash your foot. Then we can play some more."
+
+Tim smiled back and took her hand. They left the rock behind and walked to the water fountain, pulling their wagon behind them. They were happy and forgot about the rock.
+Lily and Ben went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many birds. Lily liked the white birds with long necks. Mom said they were swans. Ben liked the brown birds with big beaks. Mom said they were ducks.
+
+"Can we buy a swan, Mom?" Lily asked. She wanted to take one home and play with it.
+
+"No, dear, we can't buy a swan. Swans are wild animals. They belong to the pond. They would not be happy in our house," Mom said.
+
+"But they are so pretty and soft," Lily said. She reached out her hand to touch a swan that came close to the shore.
+
+"Careful, Lily, swans can be rough. They might bite you if you bother them," Mom said.
+
+Just then, the swan hissed and snapped at Lily's hand. Lily pulled back and cried. Ben laughed and said, "See, Lily, swans are not nice. Ducks are better. They are friendly and quack."
+
+Mom hugged Lily and said, "It's okay, Lily, the swan didn't hurt you. It was just scared of you. Swans are not toys, they are living creatures. We can admire them from a distance, but we can't touch them or buy them."
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She looked at the swan and said, "Sorry, swan, I didn't mean to make you angry. You are very beautiful, but I will leave you alone."
+
+The swan swam away and joined the other swans. Lily and Ben watched them for a while, then they fed some bread to the ducks. The ducks were happy and quacked. Lily and Ben smiled and had fun. Mom took a picture of them and said, "What a lovely day at the park!"
+Tommy was a chubby baby who liked to play with his toys in his crib. He had a ball, a teddy bear, a car and a book. He also had a pair of scissors that his mommy gave him to cut paper. Tommy thought the scissors were fun because they were sharp and shiny.
+
+One day, Tommy was playing with his scissors in his crib. He cut the paper into small pieces and threw them in the air. He laughed and clapped his hands. He wanted to cut something else. He looked around and saw his teddy bear. He grabbed the scissors and cut the teddy bear's ear. The teddy bear made a sad sound. Tommy felt sorry for the teddy bear. He hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, teddy. I didn't mean to hurt you."
+
+Then he saw his car. He cut the car's wheels. The car made a loud noise. Tommy was scared. He dropped the scissors and the car. He cried and said, "I don't like the scissors. They are too sharp. They make things break."
+
+His mommy heard him cry and came to his crib. She saw the scissors, the paper, the teddy bear and the car. She was angry and worried. She took the scissors away from Tommy and said, "Tommy, you are a naughty baby. You can't play with scissors. They are dangerous. They can cut you and your toys. You have to be careful with sharp things."
+
+She picked up Tommy and hugged him. She checked him for cuts and kissed him. She said, "I'm glad you are not hurt, Tommy. But you have to say sorry to your toys. They are your friends. You have to be gentle with them."
+
+Tommy nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mommy. I'm sorry, toys. I won't play with scissors again. I love you, mommy. I love you, toys."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "I love you too, Tommy. Now let's clean up this mess and find some new toys for you to play with. How about a puzzle or a coloring book?"
+
+Tommy liked puzzles and coloring books. He said, "Yes, please, mommy. Thank you, mommy."
+
+Mommy and Tommy cleaned up the crib and went to the toy box. They found a puzzle and a coloring book. They sat on the floor and played together. Tommy was happy. He forgot about the scissors. He learned his lesson. He was a good baby.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their toy cars and dolls. They liked to make up stories and pretend they were going on adventures. Ben had a red car and Lily had a pink doll.
+
+"Look, Lily, I see a helicopter in the sky!" Ben said, pointing up. "It is big and loud and fast. I want to fly in a helicopter one day."
+
+"Me too, Ben. Helicopters are cool. Maybe we can ask Mommy and Daddy to take us to see one," Lily said, looking at the helicopter.
+
+They watched the helicopter fly over the park and disappear behind the trees. They wondered where it was going and what it was doing.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud cry. It was a little boy who had fallen off his bike and hurt his knee. He was crying and holding his knee. His bike was on the ground next to him.
+
+"Oh no, that boy is hurt. We should help him," Ben said, feeling sorry for the boy.
+
+"Yes, let's go and help him. Maybe we can make him feel better," Lily said, agreeing with Ben.
+
+They ran over to the boy and asked him if he was okay. The boy said his name was Sam and he was trying to ride his bike but he lost his balance and fell. He said his knee was bleeding and it hurt a lot.
+
+"Don't worry, Sam. We will help you. We have some band-aids and a water bottle in our backpack. We can clean your knee and put a band-aid on it," Ben said, taking out his backpack.
+
+"Thank you, Ben and Lily. You are very kind and helpful. I'm glad you came to help me," Sam said, smiling a little.
+
+Ben and Lily helped Sam clean his knee and put a band-aid on it. They also gave him some water and a cookie. Sam felt much better and thanked them again.
+
+"You're welcome, Sam. We are happy to help you. Do you want to play with us? We have toy cars and dolls. We can pretend we are flying in a helicopter," Lily said, inviting Sam to join them.
+
+"Sure, I would love to play with you. You have nice toys. I have a toy helicopter too. I can show you. It is in my backpack," Sam said, getting his backpack.
+
+They went to a shady spot under a tree and played with their toys. They pretended they were flying in a helicopter and going on different missions. They had a lot of fun and became friends.
+
+They didn't notice a nosy squirrel who was watching them from the tree. The squirrel was curious and wanted to see their toys. He waited until they were busy talking and then he jumped down and grabbed Sam's toy helicopter. He ran away with it, making a squeaky noise.
+
+"Hey, that squirrel took my helicopter! Give it back, you nosy squirrel!" Sam shouted, seeing his toy disappear.
+
+Ben, Lily and Sam chased after the squirrel, trying to get the helicopter back. They ran across the park, following the squirrel. They hoped they could catch him and get the toy back. They also hoped the squirrel wouldn't break it or lose it.
+
+The squirrel was fast and clever. He dodged and hid and climbed and jumped. He liked the toy helicopter. He thought it was shiny and fun. He didn't want to give it back. He wanted to keep it for himself.
+
+Will they get the helicopter back? How will they get it back? What will the squirrel do? You can continue the story or end it here.
+Tommy loves mint ice cream. He thinks it is the best thing in the world. He likes the green color and the cold taste. He likes to lick it from a cone or a spoon. He likes to share it with his mom and dad.
+
+One day, Tommy goes to the park with his mom. They see a truck that sells ice cream. Tommy gets excited and runs to the truck. He sees many kinds of ice cream, but he only wants mint. He points to the mint ice cream and says, "I want that one, please!"
+
+But the truck man says, "Sorry, little boy, we are out of mint ice cream. We have chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and banana. Which one do you want?"
+
+Tommy does not want any other ice cream. He only wants mint. He shakes his head and says, "No, no, no! I want mint ice cream!"
+
+He insists on mint ice cream. He does not listen to his mom or the truck man. He cries and stamps his feet. He makes a big fuss.
+
+The truck man feels sorry for Tommy. He says, "Wait a minute, little boy. I think I have one more mint ice cream in the back. Let me check."
+
+He goes to the back of the truck and comes back with a cone of mint ice cream. He gives it to Tommy and says, "Here you go, little boy. This is the last mint ice cream. Enjoy it!"
+
+Tommy stops crying and smiles. He takes the cone and says, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" He licks the mint ice cream and says, "Mmm, this is incredible! This is the best mint ice cream ever!"
+
+He hugs his mom and says, "I love you, mom. And I love mint ice cream!"
+
+His mom hugs him back and says, "I love you, too, Tommy. And I'm glad you got your mint ice cream. But next time, try to be more polite and flexible, okay?"
+
+Tommy nods and says, "Okay, mom. I will try. But I still love mint ice cream the most!"
+Tim and Mia are friends who like to swim in the sea. They wear big rings that help them float. One day, they see a big fish with sharp teeth. It is a shark. The shark swims fast and wants to bite them.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tim and Mia shout. They are scared of the shark. They try to swim away, but the shark is faster.
+
+A big dolphin hears their shouts. It is a reliable friend of the sea. It swims to Tim and Mia and pushes them with its nose. It makes a loud sound that scares the shark. The shark swims away.
+
+"Thank you, dolphin!" Tim and Mia say. They are happy and safe. The dolphin smiles and waves its tail. It swims with them to the shore.
+
+Tim and Mia hug the dolphin and give it a fish. They say goodbye and promise to come back. The dolphin nods and swims away. Tim and Mia are glad they have a reliable friend in the sea.
+Anna and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they found a big box. It was hidden behind a tree.
+
+"Look, a box!" Anna said. "Maybe there is something inside."
+
+"Let's open it!" Ben said. They lifted the lid and saw many things. There were books, toys, clothes, and a big jar.
+
+"What is in the jar?" Anna asked. She took it out and shook it. It made a sound. "It sounds like money!"
+
+Ben looked at the jar. It had a mark on it. It said "Spend me". He wondered what it meant.
+
+"Maybe we can buy something with it," he said. "Let's go to the shop."
+
+Anna and Ben ran to the shop. They saw many things they liked. There were candies, balloons, stickers, and puzzles.
+
+"Wow, so many things!" Anna said. "What do you want to buy?"
+
+"I want a balloon," Ben said. "And a puzzle. And some stickers. What about you?"
+
+"I want some candies," Anna said. "And a book. And a toy."
+
+They took the things they wanted and went to the counter. They gave the jar to the shopkeeper.
+
+"Where did you get this?" the shopkeeper asked. He looked at the mark. It said "Spend me". He smiled. "This is a special jar. It has magic money. You can buy anything you want with it. But you have to spend it all today. Or it will disappear."
+
+"Really?" Anna and Ben said. They were happy. They thanked the shopkeeper and left the shop. They had many things to play with. They had a fun day. They spent all the money in the jar. They did not know where the box came from. But they were glad they found it. It was a hidden treasure.
+Sara liked to create things with her toys. She had many blocks, dolls, cars and animals. She put them on the floor and made stories with them. She pretended they were her friends and talked to them.
+
+One day, her brother Tom came into her room. He saw her toys on the floor and wanted to play too. He picked up a car and said, "Vroom, vroom, I'm a fast car. I can go anywhere I want."
+
+Sara did not like that. She said, "No, Tom, that's my car. You can't take it. It's part of my story. Go away."
+
+Tom did not listen. He said, "I don't care. I want to play with your car. It's fun. You have too many toys. You can share."
+
+He drove the car on the floor and bumped into Sara's blocks. They fell down and made a loud noise. Sara was angry. She said, "Tom, you're ruining my story. You're making a mess. You're not nice. Stop it."
+
+Tom laughed. He said, "I'm not ruining your story. I'm making a new one. It's more fun. You're boring. You can't stop me."
+
+He drove the car faster and faster on the floor. He bumped into more of Sara's toys. They flew everywhere. Sara cried. She said, "Tom, you're breaking my toys. You're hurting them. They're not harmless. They're my friends. Please stop."
+
+Tom did not care. He said, "They're not your friends. They're just toys. They're harmless. They can't feel anything. You're silly. You can't make me stop."
+
+He drove the car towards Sara's dolls. He was going to hit them. Sara was scared. She said, "Tom, no, don't do that. You're mean. You're bad. I don't like you."
+
+She grabbed the car from Tom's hand. She threw it on the floor. She said, "Go away, Tom. Leave me alone. You can't play with my toys. You can't create anything. You can only destroy."
+
+Tom was surprised. He was angry. He said, "Hey, give me back my car. You can't do that. You're mean. You're bad. I don't like you."
+
+He tried to get the car back from Sara. They fought over it. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They made a lot of noise.
+
+Their mom heard them. She came into the room. She saw the toys on the floor and the children fighting. She was not happy. She said, "What's going on here? Why are you making such a racket? Why are you fighting over a toy?"
+
+Sara and Tom stopped fighting. They looked at their mom. They were afraid. They said, "Sorry, mom."
+
+Their mom said, "Sara, why did you throw the car on the floor? That's not nice. You could have broken it. You could have hurt someone."
+
+Sara said, "Sorry, mom. But Tom took my car. He was playing with it. He was bumping into my toys. He was ruining my story. He was breaking my toys. He was hurting them. He said they were harmless. He said they were not my friends. He was mean. He was bad. I don't like him."
+
+Their mom said, "Tom, is that true? Did you take Sara's car? Did you play with it? Did you bump into her toys? Did you ruin her story? Did you break her toys? Did you hurt them? Did you say they were harmless? Did you say they were not her friends? Were you mean? Were you bad? Do you not like her?"
+
+Tom said, "Sorry, mom. But Sara had too many toys. She didn't share. She was boring. She was making stories with them. She was talking to them. She said they were her friends. She was silly. She was not fun. I wanted to play with her car. It was fun. I was making a new story. I was not breaking her toys. I was not hurting them. They were just toys. They were harmless. They couldn't feel anything. I was not mean. I was not bad. I do like her."
+
+Their mom said, "Sara, Tom, listen to me. You are both wrong. You are both right. You are both sorry. You are both siblings. You are both loved. You can both create. You can both play. You can both share. You can both have fun. You can both be friends. But you have to respect each other. You have to respect each other's toys. You have to respect each other's stories. You have to respect
+Sara and Ben were best friends. They liked to play together every day. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a big red ball. They could kick it, throw it, catch it, and roll it.
+
+One day, they found a new place to play. It was a big field with many flowers and trees. They saw a pond with ducks and frogs. They felt a lot of wonder. They wanted to explore everything.
+
+They ran to the pond and saw something shiny in the water. It was a rare coin. Sara and Ben both wanted it. They reached for it at the same time, but they bumped their heads. They both cried out.
+
+"Ow! That hurt! You did that on purpose!" Sara said.
+
+"No, I didn't! You did! You pushed me!" Ben said.
+
+They glared at each other and grabbed the coin. They pulled and pulled, but neither would let go. They started to yell and fight.
+
+"Stop! Stop!" a voice said. It was their teacher, Miss Lee. She had followed them to the field. She saw them fighting over the coin.
+
+"What are you doing? Why are you fighting?" she asked.
+
+They both tried to explain, but they talked over each other. Miss Lee shook her head.
+
+"Listen, Sara and Ben. Fighting is not nice. Sharing is nice. The coin is not worth losing your friendship. You can both enjoy it if you take turns. Or you can find something else to play with. There are so many things to see and do in this field. Don't waste your time on something that makes you unhappy. OK?"
+
+Sara and Ben looked at each other. They felt sorry for what they had done. They nodded.
+
+"OK, Miss Lee. We're sorry. We won't fight anymore. We'll share the coin. And we'll play nicely." they said.
+
+They hugged and smiled. They gave the coin to Miss Lee. She put it in her pocket. She said she would keep it safe for them. They thanked her and ran off to play. They found a stick and a stone. They pretended they were a sword and a shield. They had fun. They were happy. They were best friends.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play outside at night. They have a big yard with a swing and a slide. They also have a tent that their dad made for them.
+
+One night, they see a big, bright moon in the sky. They want to look at it more. They run to the tent and get their flashlight and a book. The book has pictures of the moon and the stars.
+
+They sit on the swing and point the flashlight at the book. They take turns reading the words. They learn that the moon is a big rock that goes around the earth. They learn that the moon has different shapes. They learn that the moon can make the sea go up and down.
+
+"Wow, the moon is so cool!" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, and it is so pretty!" Lily says.
+
+They look up at the moon and smile. They see a cloud that looks like a rabbit. They see a star that twinkles.
+
+"Can we go to the moon someday?" Tom asks.
+
+"Maybe, if we are very brave and flexible," Lily says.
+
+"What does flexible mean?" Tom asks.
+
+"It means you can bend and stretch and try new things," Lily says.
+
+"Like this?" Tom bends his arm and makes a funny face.
+
+"Yes, like that. And like this!" Lily stretches her leg and sticks out her tongue.
+
+They laugh and giggle. They are happy and curious. They love the moon and each other.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the sandbox. They liked to make castles and tunnels with the sand. They had a big bucket and a small shovel each.
+
+"Look, I made a pit!" Sam said, digging a deep hole in the sand. "You can put your castle in it and it will be safe."
+
+Lily smiled and picked up her castle. She had worked hard to make it with the bucket and her hands. She walked over to Sam's pit and tried to put her castle in it.
+
+But the pit was too small for her castle. Her castle broke and fell apart in the sand. Lily felt frustrated. She wanted her castle to be in the pit.
+
+"Sam, your pit is too small!" Lily said, frowning. "My castle does not fit. It broke!"
+
+Sam looked at Lily's castle. He saw that it was bigger than his pit. He felt sorry for Lily. He did not want to make her sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Sam said, putting down his shovel. "I did not know your castle was so big. Do you want to make a new castle with me?"
+
+Lily nodded. She did not want to be mad at Sam. He was her friend. She picked up her shovel and joined Sam.
+
+They worked together to make a new castle. They made it bigger and stronger than before. They also made the pit bigger and deeper. They enjoyed playing in the sandbox. They were happy.
+Sam and Mia went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells. They also liked to watch the waves and the birds.
+
+One day, they saw something shiny and red in the water. It was a crab! The crab had big claws and small eyes. It moved sideways and snapped its claws.
+
+"Look, a crab!" Sam said. "Can we catch it?"
+
+"Be careful, it might pinch you," Mia said.
+
+They got a bucket and a net and tried to catch the crab. They ran after it, but the crab was fast and smart. It hid under a rock, then under some seaweed, then behind a starfish.
+
+The crab was too clever for Sam and Mia. They could not catch it. They felt sad and tired.
+
+"Let's leave the crab alone," Mom said. "It lives here and it likes to be free. We can spend some time doing something else. How about we make a sandcastle?"
+
+Sam and Mia nodded. They liked to make sandcastles. They got their shovels and pails and started to build a big sandcastle. They decorated it with shells and stones and feathers. They made a flag and a moat and a bridge.
+
+They were very proud of their sandcastle. They showed it to Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad smiled and clapped.
+
+"You did a great job," Dad said. "Your sandcastle is perfect."
+
+Sam and Mia felt happy and proud. They forgot about the crab. They had fun spending time with Mom and Dad at the beach. They had a perfect day.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. But they also liked to complain a lot. They complained when their mom asked them to eat their vegetables, when their dad told them to tidy their room, and when their grandma gave them old toys. They always wanted more and better things.
+
+One day, they found a big cupboard in the basement. It was full of shiny and colorful things. They saw dolls, cars, books, games, and candy. They were very happy and decided to take everything they liked. They did not think about sharing or saying thank you.
+
+They brought the things to their room and played with them. But soon they got bored and started to complain again. They said the dolls were ugly, the cars were slow, the books were boring, the games were hard, and the candy was sour. They threw the things on the floor and asked for more.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to their room. She was very angry and sad. She told them that the cupboard belonged to their grandpa, who had died last week. He had left the things for them as a gift, because he loved them very much. He had written a note for them, saying that the things were important and special, and that they should take good care of them and enjoy them.
+
+Lily and Ben felt very sorry and ashamed. They realized that they had been very greedy and ungrateful. They had wasted and ruined their grandpa's gift. They had hurt their mom's feelings. They had lost their chance to remember their grandpa. They cried and hugged their mom and said they were sorry. But it was too late. The things were broken and the note was torn. They had learned a hard lesson.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be thankful for what you have and don't complain too much. Respect and cherish the gifts from your loved ones. You never know when you might lose them.
+Anna and Ben like to play outside. They have a big yard with a swing and a slide. Anna likes to swing high and Ben likes to slide fast. They have fun every day.
+
+One day, the sun is very bright. Anna and Ben put on hats and sunscreen. They run to the yard and start to play. Anna swings high and Ben slides fast. They laugh and shout.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Ben slides too fast and falls off the slide. He lands on the ground and hurts his knee. He cries and cries. Anna hears him and stops swinging. She runs to him and sees his knee. It is red and bleeding.
+
+Anna is scared and sad. She does not know what to do. She tries to help Ben, but he cries more. She looks for Mom and Dad, but they are not there. They are inside, finishing their work. They do not hear Anna and Ben.
+
+Anna and Ben are alone. They are hurt and scared. They wish Mom and Dad would come. But they do not come. The sun is very bright and hot. Anna and Ben feel thirsty and tired. They stop crying and lie on the ground. They close their eyes and wait. But no one comes.
+Lily was very happy. Today was her birthday. She had a big cake with pink frosting and four candles. She had many presents to open. She had balloons and streamers and a party hat. She had her friends and family to sing and play with.
+
+But there was one thing that made Lily sad. Her best friend Ben was not there. He was sick and had to stay at home. Lily missed him a lot. He always made her laugh and shared his toys with her. He was her favorite person in the whole world.
+
+Lily's mom saw that Lily was sad. She hugged her and said, "Don't worry, sweetie. Ben will get better soon. He sent you a card and a present. Do you want to see them?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She opened the card and read, "Happy birthday, Lily. I'm sorry I can't come to your party. I have a cold and a cough and a fever. I hope you have a lot of fun. I love you, Ben."
+
+Lily felt warm and happy. She opened the present and saw a big teddy bear. It was brown and soft and had a red bow. It looked very cute and cuddly. Lily hugged it and said, "Thank you, Ben. I love you too. I hope you get well soon."
+
+But then she smelled something smelly. She sniffed the teddy bear and made a face. It smelled like Ben's old socks. It smelled like cheese and dirt and sweat. It smelled very bad.
+
+Lily's mom laughed and said, "Oh, dear. It seems that Ben gave you his favorite teddy bear. He sleeps with it every night. That's why it smells like him. Maybe you can wash it and make it smell nice."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She said, "No, mom. I like it this way. It smells like Ben. It makes me feel close to him. I will keep it smelly until he comes back. Then we can play with it together."
+
+Lily's mom smiled and kissed her. She said, "You are a very good friend, Lily. Ben is lucky to have you. And you are lucky to have him. Happy birthday, my darling."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged her mom and her smelly teddy bear. She felt very happy. She had the best birthday ever.
+Lila liked to draw images with her crayons. She drew flowers, stars, animals and people. She was very good at drawing, but she was also very shy. She did not like to show her images to anyone, not even her mom or dad.
+
+One day, her teacher asked her to bring her images to school. She wanted to see what Lila could draw. Lila felt scared and nervous. She did not want to share her images with the teacher or the other kids. She thought they would laugh at her or say mean things.
+
+She put her images in a folder and hid it in her backpack. She hoped the teacher would forget about it. But she did not. She asked Lila to come to the front of the class and show her images. Lila felt her face get hot and her hands get sweaty. She did not want to go. She shook her head and said no.
+
+The teacher did not like that. She said Lila had to do what she asked. She walked to Lila's desk and took her backpack. She opened it and pulled out the folder. She opened the folder and saw Lila's images. She smiled and said they were very beautiful. She held them up for the class to see.
+
+But the class did not smile. They laughed and pointed and made fun of Lila's images. They said they were ugly and silly and babyish. They said Lila could not draw at all. Lila felt tears in her eyes. She wished she could disappear. She ran out of the class and hid in the bathroom. She felt very sad and alone. She hated her images and herself. She wished she never drew anything. She wished she never came to school. She wished she never was born.
+Tim liked to play with his toy lizard. He named it Lizzy and took it everywhere. He liked to make Lizzy crawl on the grass, hide under the rocks, and chase the bugs. He pretended that Lizzy was his friend and talked to him.
+
+One day, Tim saw a real lizard in the garden. It was green and shiny, with a long tail and a spiky back. Tim wanted to catch it and play with it. He thought it would be fun to have two lizards. He ran after the real lizard, but it was very fast and clever. It ran away from Tim and hid behind a flower pot.
+
+"Come here, lizard!" Tim shouted. "I want to play with you!"
+
+But the lizard did not come. It peeked out from behind the flower pot and said, "No, thank you. I do not want to play with you. You are too loud and too rough. You might hurt me or lose me. I like to be free and safe in the garden. Please leave me alone."
+
+Tim was surprised and sad. He did not know that lizards could talk. He did not mean to scare or hurt the lizard. He just wanted to have fun. He said, "I'm sorry, lizard. I did not know you could talk. I did not know you did not like to play. I have a toy lizard that I play with. His name is Lizzy. He is very nice and quiet. Do you want to see him?"
+
+The lizard looked at Tim and saw that he was sincere and curious. He decided to give him a chance. He said, "Okay, I will see your toy lizard. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will not try to catch me or touch me. You have to promise me that you will respect me and my home. Do you promise?"
+
+Tim nodded and said, "I promise, lizard. I will not try to catch you or touch you. I will respect you and your home. I just want to show you Lizzy and be your friend."
+
+The lizard agreed and said, "All right, then. You can show me Lizzy. But be careful and gentle. And do not make too much noise. There are other animals in the garden that might not like you. Come, follow me. But stay close to me. I will show you the way."
+
+Tim smiled and said, "Thank you, lizard. You are very wise and kind. I will follow you and stay close to you. I will be careful and gentle. And I will not make too much noise. Come on, Lizzy. Let's go and meet the real lizard."
+
+Tim picked up his toy lizard and followed the real lizard. He was happy and excited. He hoped that the real lizard would like Lizzy and be his friend. He did not know that the real lizard had a surprise for him. He did not know that the real lizard had a family of his own. He did not know that he was about to meet many more lizards in the garden. He did not know that he was about to have the best adventure of his life.
+Ben likes to learn new things. He likes to read books, count numbers, and draw pictures. But sometimes he needs help with his homework. That is why he has a tutor. A tutor is a person who helps you learn.
+
+Every week, Ben's tutor comes to his house. Her name is Miss Lily. She is very jolly. She always smiles and laughs. She brings fun games and stickers for Ben. She helps him with his letters, his sounds, and his words.
+
+One day, Ben's tutor is late. Ben waits and waits. He looks out the window. He does not see Miss Lily's car. He wonders where she is. He feels sad and bored.
+
+Then, the phone rings. Ben runs to answer it. He hears Miss Lily's voice.
+
+"Hello, Ben. I'm sorry I'm late. I had a problem with my car. It broke down on the way to your house. But don't worry. I called a tow truck. They will fix my car soon. And then I will come to see you. Can you wait a little longer?"
+
+Ben is happy to hear Miss Lily. He says, "Yes, I can wait. I'm glad you are okay. I miss you, Miss Lily. You are the best tutor ever."
+
+Miss Lily says, "Thank you, Ben. You are very sweet. I miss you too. You are a great student. I have a surprise for you. I brought a new game for you. It is about animals. You will love it. I will be there as soon as I can. Bye for now."

+Ben says, "Bye, Miss Lily. See you soon."
+
+Ben hangs up the phone. He feels better. He knows Miss Lily will come. He is excited for the new game. He loves animals. He goes to his room. He picks up his favorite book. It is about a lion. He reads it until Miss Lily arrives. He is ready to learn and have fun.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the woods. They had a big dog named Rex who always followed them. One day, they saw a house made of straw. They wanted to see who lived there.
+
+"Hello, is anyone home?" Anna called. She knocked on the door, but it fell down. Inside, they saw a bed, a table, and a chair. They were all very delicate and small.
+
+"Wow, this is a nice house!" Ben said. He jumped on the bed, but it broke. He tried to sit on the chair, but it cracked. He ate some bread from the table, but it was stale.
+
+"Ben, stop it! You are breaking everything!" Anna said. She was angry. She liked the house and wanted to be careful.
+
+Just then, they heard a loud growl. It was a wolf who lived in the house. He was very hungry and angry. He saw the twins and Rex and wanted to eat them.
+
+"Who are you? What are you doing in my house?" the wolf roared. He showed his big teeth and claws.
+
+"Run, Anna, run!" Ben shouted. He was scared. He grabbed Anna's hand and ran out of the house. Rex barked and bit the wolf's tail. The wolf howled and chased them.
+
+Anna, Ben, and Rex ran as fast as they could. They reached their home and slammed the door. The wolf could not get in. He was very mad. He went back to his house, but it was ruined. He had to spend a lot of time to fix it.
+
+Anna and Ben hugged Rex and thanked him. They were sorry for breaking the wolf's house. They learned to be respectful and careful. They never went to the woods again.
+Sam and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a big ball, a red kite, and a yellow bucket. They shared everything and had fun.
+
+One day, it was very hot and sunny. Sam and Lily felt thirsty and tired. They looked for a place to rest. They saw a big tree with green leaves. It made a lot of shade under it.
+
+"Let's go to the tree," Sam said. "We can sit in the shade and drink some water."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But I want to fly the kite first. Can you lend me the kite, please?"
+
+Sam nodded. He gave Lily the kite. He took the ball and the bucket. He ran to the tree. He put the ball and the bucket on the grass. He sat down and drank some water.
+
+Lily flew the kite in the sky. She felt happy. She saw the kite go up and down. She saw the colors and the shapes. She forgot about Sam and the tree.
+
+Sam waited for Lily. He felt bored. He wanted to play with the kite too. He looked at the sky. He saw a big cloud. It was dark and gray. It moved fast. It covered the sun.
+
+Sam felt a drop of water on his nose. He looked up. He saw more drops. It started to rain.
+
+"Rain!" Sam shouted. "Lily, come back! It's raining!"
+
+Lily heard Sam. She looked at the sky. She saw the rain. She felt scared. She wanted to go to the tree. She wanted to be with Sam.
+
+She pulled the kite. She tried to bring it down. But the wind was strong. It blew the kite away. It took the kite to the other side of the park.
+
+"Kite!" Lily cried. "My kite! Sam, help me!"
+
+Sam heard Lily. He felt sorry. He wanted to help her. He ran to her. He took her hand. He said, "Don't worry, Lily. We can find the kite later. Let's go to the tree. We can be dry and safe."
+
+Sam and Lily ran to the tree. They sat in the shade. They hugged each other. They felt warm and cozy.
+
+They looked at the rain. They saw the drops and the puddles. They saw a rainbow. It had many colors. It was bright and beautiful.
+
+They smiled. They said, "Rainbow!"
+
+They learned a lesson. They learned to share and to care. They learned to be fair and to be there. They learned to be best friends.
+Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park, to share their toys, and to hug each other. One day, they saw a big cross on a hill. It was made of wood and had flowers on it.
+
+"What is that?" Anna asked.
+
+"That is a cross. It is a sign of love and peace," Ben said.
+
+"Who put it there?" Anna wondered.
+
+"Some people who love God and each other. They say that God loves everyone and wants us to be happy and kind," Ben explained.
+
+Anna and Ben thought that was nice. They wanted to be happy and kind too. They decided to go closer to the cross and look at it.
+
+When they reached the cross, they saw a man and a woman standing in front of it. They were holding hands and smiling. They had rings on their fingers and flowers in their hair.
+
+"Who are they?" Anna whispered.
+
+"They are getting married. That means they love each other very much and want to stay together forever," Ben whispered back.
+
+Anna and Ben thought that was beautiful. They wanted to stay together forever too. They decided to copy the man and the woman and hold hands and smile.
+
+"Can we get married too?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, why not? We are best friends, right?" Ben said.
+
+"Right. I love you, Ben," Anna said.
+
+"I love you, Anna," Ben said.
+
+They kissed each other on the cheek and hugged each other. They felt happy and peaceful. They did not know that the man and the woman were their parents, who had planned a surprise wedding for them. They also did not know that the cross was a gift from their grandparents, who had passed away but wanted to bless their family. They only knew that they loved each other and the cross. And that was enough.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big hose that could spray water. They liked to spray each other and make funny noises.
+
+"Spray, spray, spray!" Lily shouted as she aimed the hose at Ben.
+
+"Hey, stop it!" Ben laughed as he ran away. "You are so weird!"
+
+He grabbed a bucket and filled it with water. He sneaked behind Lily and poured the water over her head.
+
+"Got you!" he said.
+
+Lily gasped and giggled. She was wet and cold, but she did not mind. She thought it was fun.
+
+They chased each other around the garden, spraying and splashing water. They did not see their mom watching them from the window. She smiled and shook her head.
+
+"What are you two doing?" she asked.
+
+"We are having fun!" Lily and Ben said together.
+
+They looked at each other and smiled. They were happy. They loved to play.
+Anna and Ben like to play with their toys on the carpet. They have cars, dolls, blocks and books. They have fun making noises and stories with their toys. But sometimes the carpet gets dirty with crumbs, dust and hair. Then Mommy says they have to clean the carpet.
+
+Anna and Ben help Mommy to pick up their toys and put them in a box. Then Mommy rolls up the carpet and takes it outside. She asks Anna and Ben to come with her. She says they can help her shake the carpet.
+
+Anna and Ben follow Mommy to the backyard. They see the carpet on the grass. Mommy holds one end of the carpet and asks Anna and Ben to hold the other end. She says they have to shake the carpet hard to make the dirt fall off.
+
+Anna and Ben nod and grab the carpet. They lift it up and down and shake it with Mommy. They see the crumbs, dust and hair fly off the carpet and land on the grass. They laugh and say "Shake, shake, shake!" They think it is fun to shake the carpet.
+
+Mommy smiles and says "Thank you, Anna and Ben. You are very helpful. The carpet is much cleaner now. Let's take it back inside and put it on the floor. Then you can play with your toys again." Anna and Ben are happy and proud. They help Mommy to carry the carpet inside and unroll it. They put their toys back on the carpet and hug Mommy. They say "We love you, Mommy. You are very helpful too." Mommy hugs them back and says "I love you too, Anna and Ben. You are very good children." They all smile and play together.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the kitchen. They pretend to cook and eat. But sometimes they are silly. They make a mess with the pots and pans. They spill the flour and the sugar. They throw the eggs and the cheese.
+
+One day, Mom comes home from work. She sees the kitchen. She is very angry. She says, "Anna and Ben, what have you done? You have made a big mess. This is not how you play. You have to clean up. And you have to punish. No TV for you tonight. Go to your room now."
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We were just having fun. We did not mean to make you angry. We will clean up. We will not be silly again."
+
+Mom says, "I know you were having fun. But you have to be careful. You have to respect the kitchen. It is not a toy. It is where we make food. You have to learn to play nicely. And you have to listen to me. Now go to your room and think about what you did."
+
+Anna and Ben go to their room. They feel bad. They do not like to punish. They do not like to make Mom angry. They say to each other, "We are sorry. We love Mom. We will be good next time." They hug and kiss. They hope Mom will forgive them. They hope they can watch TV tomorrow.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big box of paper. They open the box and see many colors of paper.
+
+"Wow, look at all the paper!" Lily says. "We can make things with it!"
+
+"Yes, let's make things!" Ben agrees. "What do you want to make?"
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She is very intelligent. She has an idea.
+
+"I want to make a frog!" she says. "Frogs can jump very high. Do you know how to make a frog?"
+
+Ben shakes his head. He does not know how to make a frog.
+
+"No, I don't know how to make a frog," he says. "Can you show me?"
+
+Lily nods. She picks a green paper. She folds it in half. Then she folds it again. She makes two corners. She makes a head and legs. She shows Ben her paper frog.
+
+"Look, this is a frog!" she says. "You can make one too. It is easy."
+
+Ben tries to copy Lily. He picks a green paper. He folds it in half. Then he folds it again. He makes two corners. He makes a head and legs. He shows Lily his paper frog.
+
+"Look, I made a frog too!" he says. "They look the same."
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They have two paper frogs. They put them on the ground. They tap them gently. The paper frogs jump.
+
+"Wow, they can jump!" Lily says. "Let's see who can jump higher!"
+
+"OK, let's see!" Ben says. "One, two, three, jump!"
+
+Lily and Ben watch their paper frogs jump. They laugh and clap. They have fun with their paper frogs. They are very clever. They can make things with paper.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park with their dolls. They liked to pretend that their dolls were detectives and solve mysteries. They had a big box that they used as their office. They put a sign on the box that said "Sara and Ben's Mystery Agency".
+
+One day, a girl came to their box. She was weeping and holding a teddy bear. "Can you help me?" she asked. "Someone took my other teddy bear. He was my best friend. I miss him so much."
+
+Sara and Ben looked at each other. They nodded. They liked to help people. They took the girl and her teddy bear inside their box. They asked her some questions. "What is your name?" Sara asked.
+
+"Lisa," the girl said.
+
+"Where did you lose your other teddy bear?" Ben asked.
+
+"At the sandbox," Lisa said. "I left him there for a minute to get some water. When I came back, he was gone."
+
+Sara and Ben decided to go to the sandbox and look for clues. They took Lisa and her teddy bear with them. They saw some footprints in the sand. They followed them. They led to a big tree. Behind the tree, they saw a boy. He was holding Lisa's other teddy bear. He had a rough face and a mean smile.
+
+"Hey, that's my teddy bear!" Lisa shouted. "Give him back!"
+
+The boy laughed. "No way. I found him. He's mine now. Go away."
+
+Sara and Ben were not afraid. They stood up to the boy. "That's not fair. You stole him. He belongs to Lisa. She loves him. You have to give him back," Sara said.
+
+"Yeah, or we'll tell the teacher. You're a bad boy. You're a thief," Ben said.
+
+The boy frowned. He didn't like to be called a thief. He didn't like to be told by the teacher. He threw the teddy bear at Lisa. "Fine. Take him. I don't care. He's a stupid teddy bear anyway."
+
+Lisa caught the teddy bear. She hugged him. She was so happy. She stopped weeping. She smiled. "Thank you, Sara and Ben. You're the best detectives ever. You solved the mystery. You found my teddy bear."
+
+Sara and Ben smiled too. They were proud. They had helped Lisa. They had done a good job. They went back to their box. They put a new sign on the box. It said "Sara and Ben's Mystery Agency. We solve any mystery. No case too big or too small."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. They had a small house made of wood where they kept their toys. They had a key to lock and unlock the door.
+
+One day, they heard a harsh voice from the other side of the fence. It was Mr. Brown, their grumpy neighbor. He did not like children or noise. He shouted, "Stop making so much racket! Go inside and be quiet!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They ran to their house and locked the door. They hoped Mr. Brown would not come and bother them. They hugged each other and waited.
+
+After a while, they heard a knock on the door. They thought it was Mr. Brown again. They did not want to open the door. They heard another knock, and then a voice. It was not Mr. Brown. It was their mom.
+
+"Hello, my sweeties. Are you in there?" she said. "I have a surprise for you. Can you unlock the door and let me in?"
+
+Lily and Ben were happy. They unlocked the door and saw their mom smiling. She had a note in her hand. She gave it to them and said, "This is from your grandma. She is coming to visit us tomorrow. She loves you very much and can't wait to see you."
+
+Lily and Ben were excited. They loved their grandma. She was very kind and fun. They thanked their mom and hugged her. They forgot about Mr. Brown and his harsh voice. They looked at the note and saw a heart and a smiley face. They smiled too.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they go to the shop with their moms. The shop has many toys. Anna and Ben are happy.
+
+Anna sees a doll. She likes the doll. She says to Ben, "Look, Ben, a doll! I want the doll. Do you like the doll?"
+
+Ben looks at the doll. He does not like the doll. He likes cars. He says to Anna, "No, Anna, I do not like the doll. I like cars. Look, a car! I want the car. Do you like the car?"
+
+Anna looks at the car. She does not like the car. She likes dolls. She says to Ben, "No, Ben, I do not like the car. I like dolls. We like different toys."
+
+Their moms hear them. They smile. They say to Anna and Ben, "It is okay to like different toys. You can both have what you like. We recommend you to share and play together. Sharing and playing are fun."
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They say, "Okay, moms. We will share and play. We are friends."
+
+They buy the doll and the car. They go home. They share and play. They have fun. They are successful friends.
+Anna loves animals. She wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up. A veterinarian is a person who helps animals when they are sick or hurt. Anna has a white cat named Snowy. Snowy is her best friend.
+
+One day, Anna and Snowy go to the park. They see many animals there. They see dogs, birds, squirrels, and ducks. Anna and Snowy watch them play and run. Anna says, "Look, Snowy, they are so happy and healthy. I want to help them if they ever need me."
+
+Suddenly, Anna hears a loud meow. She turns around and sees a black cat stuck in a tree. The cat is scared and hungry. Anna wants to help the cat, but she is too small to reach the tree. She looks around and sees a man with a red shirt and a blue hat. He has a badge that says "veterinarian". Anna runs to him and says, "Please, sir, can you help the cat in the tree? He is scared and hungry. I want to help him, but I am too small."
+
+The man smiles and says, "Of course, I can help the cat. I am a veterinarian. I help animals when they are sick or hurt. You are very kind and brave to care for the cat. Come with me and watch how I do it."
+
+The man takes a ladder and climbs up the tree. He gently picks up the cat and brings him down. He checks the cat for any injuries and gives him some food and water. The cat purrs and rubs his head against the man. The man says, "The cat is fine. He just needs a home and a friend. Do you want to keep him, Anna?"
+
+Anna looks at Snowy and then at the cat. She says, "Yes, I do. I have a big heart and a big house. I can give him a home and a friend. I will name him Shadow. He will be Snowy's brother."
+
+The man says, "That's wonderful, Anna. You are a very good girl. You will make a great veterinarian someday. I am proud of you."
+
+Anna hugs the man and says, "Thank you, sir. You are a very good veterinarian. You made me and the cats happy."
+
+Anna, Snowy, and Shadow go home. They are a happy family. They watch each other and help each other. They love each other.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden with their toy cars and trucks. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving on the road. Ben had a red ambulance and Lily had a blue truck.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can pour water from my ambulance!" Ben said. He had a small bottle of water and he poured some on the grass. "See, it's like the ambulance is putting out a fire!"
+
+"That's cool, Ben!" Lily said. "Can I try?" She reached for the bottle, but Ben pulled it away.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Ben said. "You have your own truck, you can't have my ambulance!"
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted to play with the ambulance too. She looked around and saw a big bucket of mud. She had an idea. She grabbed a handful of mud and threw it at Ben.
+
+"Hey!" Ben shouted. "What are you doing?" He was covered in thick, brown mud. It was in his hair, his face, his clothes and his ambulance.
+
+Lily laughed. She thought it was funny. "Now you look like a mud monster!" she said.
+
+Ben didn't think it was funny. He felt wet and dirty and cold. He started to cry. "Mummy, mummy, help!" he called.
+
+Mummy heard Ben's cry and came running. She saw Ben and Lily and the mess they had made. She was not happy.
+
+"What happened here?" she asked. "Why did you throw mud at your brother, Lily?"
+
+Lily stopped laughing. She realized she had been mean to Ben. She felt sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, mummy, I'm sorry, Ben," she said. "I just wanted to play with the ambulance, but Ben wouldn't let me."
+
+Mummy sighed. She picked up Ben and took him inside to clean him up. She told Lily to stay in the garden and clean up the toys.
+
+"Next time, you have to share and be nice to each other," she said. "Or you won't be allowed to play with the cars and trucks anymore."
+
+Lily nodded. She understood. She hoped Ben would forgive her and they could play together again. She picked up the ambulance and the truck and put them in the bucket. She poured some water on them to wash off the mud. She wished she had been nicer to Ben.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and make noise. They have a lot of fun together. But sometimes they get tired and need a nap.
+
+One day, they were playing with their blocks and cars on the floor. They built a big tower and a long road. They made vroom and beep sounds with their mouths. They were very playful and happy.
+
+But then, they started to yawn and rub their eyes. They felt sleepy and cranky. They did not want to play anymore. They wanted to nap.
+
+Mom came and saw them. She smiled and said, "It's time for a nap, my sweeties. Come on, let's go to your beds." She picked them up and carried them to their room.
+
+She tucked them in and gave them a kiss. She turned on the night light and the music box. She said, "Sleep well, my loves. I'll be here when you wake up." She closed the door and left.
+
+Anna and Ben snuggled with their teddy bears. They closed their eyes and listened to the soft music. They felt warm and cozy. They fell asleep and had sweet dreams. They napped.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big tent with many colors and pictures. They wanted to go inside and see what was there.
+
+"Mom, can we go to the tent?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful and stay together. I'll be right here on the bench," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the tent. They opened the flap and went in. It was dark and they could not see much. They heard some noises and smelled something bad.
+
+"Hello, who's there?" a voice said.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not recognize the voice. They tried to find the flap and get out, but they could not.
+
+"Please, let us go!" Ben cried.
+
+"Ha ha ha, you can't go. You're my guests now. I'm the clown and this is my tent. Do you like my jokes?" the voice said.
+
+Lily and Ben did not like the jokes. They did not like the clown. They saw a flash of red hair and a big nose. They screamed and cried.
+
+Mom heard them and ran to the tent. She opened the flap and saw the clown. He was holding a pie in his hand. He was about to throw it at Lily and Ben.
+
+"Stop! Leave my kids alone!" Mom yelled.
+
+The clown was surprised. He dropped the pie and it fell on his face. He was embarrassed and angry.
+
+"Who are you? How dare you ruin my show?" the clown said.
+
+"I'm their mom and you're a mean and scary clown. You have no right to scare them like that. Come on, kids, let's go," Mom said.
+
+She grabbed Lily and Ben and took them out of the tent. They hugged her and thanked her.
+
+The clown was left alone in the tent. He wiped the pie off his face and looked around. He saw that no one was watching him. He had no audience, no friends, no fun. He felt sad and lonely.
+
+He wished he had been nicer to Lily and Ben. Maybe they would have liked him and his jokes. Maybe they would have stayed and played with him. But it was too late. He had lost his chance.
+
+He sighed and crawled into a corner of the tent. He closed his eyes and tried to forget. But he could not. He heard Lily and Ben's screams and Mom's yell in his head. He felt the pie on his face and the shame in his heart.
+
+He wished he could start over. But he could not. He had made a bad choice. And he had to live with it.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the kitchen. They had many toys, but they also liked to look at the food in the fridge. Sometimes, they would sneak a bite of cheese or a sip of juice when Mom was not looking.
+
+One day, Mom went to the store and left them with Dad. Dad was busy working on his laptop and did not pay much attention to them. Lily and Ben decided to play a game. They took turns opening and closing the fridge and guessing what was inside.
+
+"I see apples and carrots and milk," Lily said, opening the fridge.
+
+"I see eggs and bread and butter," Ben said, closing the fridge.
+
+They kept playing until Ben saw something that made him very happy. He opened the fridge and saw a big chocolate cake with frosting and sprinkles. It was Mom's birthday cake that she had made the night before.
+
+"Wow, look at that cake!" Ben said. "It looks so yummy!"
+
+Lily looked at the cake and felt envious. She wanted to have a piece of cake too. She had an idea. She waited until Ben closed the fridge and then quickly locked it with the key that was hanging on the wall.
+
+"Hey, what did you do?" Ben asked, trying to open the fridge.
+
+"I locked the fridge," Lily said, smiling. "Now you can't have the cake."
+
+"That's not fair!" Ben said, getting angry. "Give me the key!"
+
+"No, I won't," Lily said, holding the key. "The cake is mine!"
+
+They started to argue and tug at the key. They did not hear Dad coming into the kitchen.
+
+"What's going on here?" Dad asked, seeing them fight.
+
+"Lily locked the fridge and won't let me have the cake!" Ben said.
+
+"Ben wants to eat the cake and I don't want him to!" Lily said.
+
+Dad looked at the fridge and saw the cake. He sighed and shook his head.
+
+"That cake is not for you," he said. "That cake is for Mom. It's her birthday today. You should not touch it or fight over it. You should be nice to each other and share your toys."
+
+He took the key from Lily and unlocked the fridge. He put the cake back in and closed the fridge. He gave them each a hug and a kiss.
+
+"I'm sorry, Dad," Lily said.
+
+"Me too, Dad," Ben said.
+
+"It's okay, kids," Dad said. "I love you both. But you have to wait until Mom comes home to have some cake. And you have to say sorry to her too. She worked hard to make it for us."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They felt sorry for being naughty and envious. They decided to play with their toys instead and wait for Mom. They hoped she would like the cake and forgive them.
+Once there was a happy little girl who loved to laugh. Every morning she would laugh when she saw the sun peak out from the clouds. Her family also loved to laugh with her.
+
+One day, the little girl was feeling extra happy. She wanted to show her family how happy she was, so she got a bathrobe. She grabbed the bathrobe and put it on with a big smile.
+
+The little girl went outside and showed her family her new bathrobe. They all started to laugh and it made the little girl even happier.
+
+It was a normal day, but that day was extra special with lots of laughs and smiles. The little girl and her family had a great time and it was the best day ever!
+Once upon a time there was a little girl who wanted to go to a mysterious palace. As she was only three-years-old, her mommy packed her a few snacks for the journey. When they finally arrived at the palace, the little girl was delighted. It was more beautiful than she ever imagined.
+
+The little girl asked her mommy: "Can I unpack my snacks now?". Her mommy smiled and said: "Of course. Go ahead".
+
+So the little girl quickly unpacked all the snack and started exploring the palace. Everywhere she went she found wonderful things - from a beautiful garden to a huge library. Everywhere she looked, something mysterious caught her eye.
+
+Suddenly, a voice from the top of the palace said: "Welcome to the mysterious palace. I'm so glad you're here". The voice belonged to an old wizard who had been living in the palace for many years. He took the little girl around the palace and taught her all the wonderful things inside.
+
+The little girl's day in the mysterious palace was unforgettable. She learned so many things and made some new friends. By the time they said goodbye, she was full of stories to tell her mommy.
+One day, a small animal was running very fast. The animal had long, soft fur. It was brown and it was very different from other animals around it.
+
+The animal was running so quickly because it was on an adventure to find something special. It wanted to find something that was very creative.
+
+The animal ran until it was out of breath. But even then it kept going. It had to find something special. So it rushed and rushed until it saw something amazing.
+
+It was a large tree with branches shaped like a spiral. There were lots of colorful leaves dancing around it. It was the most creative thing the small animal had ever seen. 
+
+The animal was so happy that it had found something creative. And so it stopped rushing and was content to simply admire what it had found.
+Once upon a time there was a peasant who had a huge life. He worked with lots of fields to look after.Every day he would jog across his fields in the morning to make sure they were in good condition.
+
+One morning, he saw a figure in the distance walking across his fields. As he got closer, he saw a little girl! She was just three years old and wearing a dress with little flowers.
+
+The peasant went up to her and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here?" 
+
+The little girl replied with a huge smile, "My name is Lucy and I'm going for a jog! I love jogging and its so much fun!"
+
+The peasant smiled back and said, "Well Lucy, you have a wonderful life ahead of you. I wish for you to live a long and happy life."
+
+The little girl giggled and said, "Thank you, kind sir, I will be sure to take care of my huge life and keep jogging!"
+
+The peasant was so happy to see the joy in the girl's face and gave her a sweet before she continued on her journey.
+
+And that's how Lucy found her jog. She enjoyed it every day and knew how to take care of her huge life.
+Once upon a time, there was a cute little girl called Pauline. She loved spending time outside and always looked for new adventures.
+
+One day, as Pauline was outside in the sun, she saw something that made her very curious. It was a strange little fly that was buzzing around and it seemed to be very attractive.
+
+“Hi little fly!†Pauline said. “You look very nice!â€
+
+The fly flew closer to Pauline and she noticed that something strange was happening. The fly seemed to be melting!
+

+Thomas noticed how the elderly lady bent over and put something under the tree. He moved closer and as he got closer he could see it was a book.
+
+Thomas was full of excitement and couldn't understand what was going on. He quickly ran over to her and shouted: "What are you doing?" 
+
+The elderly lady smiled and said: "I'm just putting this book here for someone to find. I can't reach very far these days so I'm only 1 inch away from the tree. I'm sure someone will find it".
+
+Thomas was amazed. This was such a nice surprise! He couldn't wait to tell his mum all about this adventure.

+Once there was a boy called Peter. Peter loved to ride his scooter every day. One day, when it was a very gloomy day, Peter raced on his scooter as fast as he could. He raced up and down the street until he was very tired.
+
+Suddenly, a voice called out, “Hey! You must stop and you must be punished!†It was Peter’s mother.
+
+Peter looked very scared and said, “But why do I need to be punished?â€
+
+Peter’s mother replied, “Because it is dangerous to ride your scooter very fast on a gloomy day, when you can’t see very well. You have to be careful!â€

+
+So Peter’s mother decided not to punish him, and they hugged each other tightly.
+
+The moral of the story is to always be careful, even on a gloomy day.

+This made Jax feel lonely and he wanted to join them. He tried to go over to them, but they were so far away. Jax began to cry.
+
+At that moment, Jax heard a voice. It was his mom. She said, "Jax, you don't always have to be near people to have friends. True friends will stick with you, even when you are far away. That's what makes a strong friendship."

+
+One day, a group of mischievous monkeys saw her running around and thought it looked like fun. So the monkeys followed the panda, laughing and playing together.
+

+The kangaroo jumped across the lake and landed on the other side. The sun shone brightly here and the boy was suddenly much happier. The kangaroo said, "It's ok now - the sun will heal you."
+
+The boy and kangaroo hugged and the kangaroo told the boy, "Come back and visit me again, please!" The boy said he would and then hopped off the kangaroo's back to go home. 
+The boy waved goodbye to the kangaroo, feeling much better and happier than before. The green kangaroo watched until the boy was out of sight and then hopped away.
+Once upon a time, there lived a small boy. His name was Jake. Jake loved books and whenever he got the chance he would go to the library. The library was a great place for him as it had all kinds of books for him to explore. 
+
+Jake loved going to the library so much and he would always be very excited when the day came for him to go. He would eagerly tell his mom, "I'm going to the library today. It's gonna be great!" One day, when Jake was at the library, he stumbled upon a book that caught his eye. It was an old, dusty book with a bright red cover. 
+
+Jake couldn't wait to find out what was inside the book. He told his mom that he wanted to stay a little longer at the library so he could finish reading the book. His mom said ok, but warned him not to stay too long. 
+
+Jake was immersed in the book and didn't want to quit reading. Then suddenly, Jake heard a loud noise coming from outside the library. He quickly ran outside and saw that the library was on fire! He had completely lost track of time while reading and now the library was engulfed in flames. 
+
+Jake was so sad and wished he had quit reading and listening to his mom much earlier in the day. He knew it was too late now to save the library and thought about all the wonderful books he'd lost. Unfortunately,
+Alan and Emily were getting ready to leave the park. It was a lovely day, with the sun shining brightly. Alan was hopping and skipping all the way.
+
+But when they came to the exit, Emily stopped. She looked at the sky, which was starting to darken, and felt uncomfortable. Alan shrugged. He didn't understand why she wasn't walking anymore.
+
+"Let's just go, Emily," he said.
+
+"No," she answered. "I think we should wait until the sun comes out again."
+
+Alan started to get frustrated. He wanted to go. He shrugged again and started walking away.
+
+"Alan, wait," Emily said. "I just don't feel comfortable going out into the dark."
+
+Alan paused, then he shrugged a third time. He thought for a moment, then said, "Okay, let's wait." So they stayed in the park a little longer, until the sun came out again. Now they could go home, safe and sound.
+Once upon a time there was a little bird who wanted to fly higher than any other bird. He got an idea to build a tank to help him soar even higher. Every night he worked hard to build it, but no matter how carefully he worked, he could not succeed. 
+
+One night he went to his friend the owl for help. He said, "I'm building a tank to help me fly higher than ever before but I'm having trouble. Can you help?" 
+
+His friend the owl said, "I'm sorry my friend, but I don't think it's possible. Your tank is too fragile to carry you."
+
+The little bird was sad but he did not give up hope. He said, "I'm going to try one more time and this time I know I'm going to succeed!"
+
+The next morning, with the help of the owl, the little bird made one more attempt at building the tank. This time he made it from very strong material, and he made sure to check it carefully. 
+
+When he climbed in, the tank held strong and it carried him higher than ever before! He was so excited at his success that he shouted out happily to all the birds in the sky.
+Once upon a time, there was a wild meat. It seemed to be hiding in the forest so no one could find it.
+
+A little girl named Sally decided she wanted to try and find the wild meat. She wasn't afraid of anything and was determined to find it.
+
+So, Sally ventured into the forest, searching and searching until she finally saw it. The wild meat was huge and seemed to be watching her. Sally was scared and wanted to run away, but she was also curious about the meat.
+
+Sally shouted out to the wild meat, asking it what it was doing in the forest. Suddenly, the wild meat spoke back! It said it was waiting for the right person to come along and eat it.
+
+Sally was very surprised and scared, but she also had a little bit of courage. She asked the wild meat if she could eat it. The wild meat said she could, but only if she was brave enough. Sally didn't know if she was brave enough, but then she remembered how determined she was to find the wild meat.
+
+So, Sally took a deep breath, stepped forward and said she was brave enough. The wild meat smiled and said she could eat it. Sally was so happy and enjoyed her wild meat dinner.
+Once upon a time, there was a fog. It was a very thick fog and it was hard to see through it. Two friends, Jacob and Emma, decided to break through the fog together.
+
+Jacob said, “Let's run really fast and maybe we can break through it!†Emma thought it was a stupid idea, but she decided to try it anyway.
+
+They ran as fast as they could, but they couldn't break through the fog. Jacob tried jumping, but that didn't work either.
+
+Suddenly, Emma had an idea. She picked up a big stick and started hitting the fog. The fog broke apart and the sun started shining.
+
+The sun lit up their faces, and Jacob and Emma smiled. They'd done it! They'd broken through the fog.

+
+The little girl said, "I slipped and hurt myself!"

+Her mother said, "Oh, don't worry. You'll be okay. Let's have a look." But when the mother looked, it wasn't good. The little girl had broken her arm.
+
+The little girl was sad and worried. Her mother tried to make her feel better by making funny faces, but it didn't help. 
+
+Finally, the mother said that they had to go to the hospital. But it didn't look like the little girl was happy about that.
