Ben cries again. + +Mia goes to the bed and hugs Ben. She whispers in his ear. + +"Ben, it's okay. It's just a dream. I'm here. I love you." + +Ben opens his eyes and sees Mia. He feels her hug and hears her voice. He calms down and stops crying. + +"Mia, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I played with the oil. I'm sorry I made a mess. I'm sorry I was mean to you." Ben says. + +"It's okay, Ben. I'm sorry I was mad at you. I love you too." Mia says. + +They smile and kiss. They cuddle on the bed. They fall asleep together. + +The next day, Ben and Mia help Mom and Dad clean the room. They throw away the oil and the ruined toys. They wash the floor and the bed. They say sorry and thank you. They learn their lesson. They promise to never play with oil again. They are happy and good twins. +Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the park. They liked to make noises and pretend they were racing. But then they saw a man with a big bag running away from a police car. The man looked scared and angry. + +"Who is he?" Lily asked. + +"He is a bad man. He took things that are not his. The police want to catch him and put him in jail," Ben said. + +"What is jail?" Lily wondered. + +"Jail is a place where bad people go. They have to stay there for a long time and they cannot play or have fun," Ben explained. + +"That sounds sad," Lily said. + +The man saw the children and ran towards them. He wanted to hide behind a tree. But the police car was faster and blocked his way. The police got out of the car and pointed at the man. + +"Stop! You are under arrest! Return the things you stole or we will take you to jail!" the police said. + +The man dropped the bag and tried to run away. But the police caught him and put handcuffs on him. They put him in the back of the car and drove away. + +Lily and Ben watched the car leave. They felt scared and curious. + +"Are they going to take him to jail?" Lily asked. + +"Yes, they are. He was very naughty and he has to learn his lesson," Ben said. + +"Will he ever come back?" Lily wondered. + +"Maybe, but not for a long time. And he will have to say sorry and be good," Ben said. + +Lily and Ben decided to go back to their toy cars. They were glad they were not bad like the man. They were glad they had each other and their toys. They were glad they could play and have fun. +Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and chase each other. They also liked to pick berries from the bushes and eat them. They were very sweet and juicy. + +One day, they saw a big jar of jam on the table. It was red and shiny and looked very yummy. Lily and Tom wanted to try some. They were careless and did not ask their mom first. They took the jar and ran to the garden. + +They opened the jar and dipped their fingers in the jam. They licked the jam and smiled. It was very yummy. They ate more and more jam. They did not see their mom coming. + +"Hey, what are you doing?" their mom asked. She was angry and surprised. She saw the jam on their fingers and faces and clothes. She saw the jar on the ground. She saw the ants and the bees coming to the jam. + +Lily and Tom were scared. They did not know what to say. They froze and looked at their mom. They knew they were in trouble. + +Their mom took the jar and the kids inside. She cleaned them up and gave them a lecture. She told them to never take things without asking. She told them to be careful with food. She told them to say sorry. + +Lily and Tom said sorry. They felt bad and ashamed. They learned their lesson. They did not want to be careless again. They hugged their mom and said they loved her. Their mom hugged them back and said she loved them too. She also said they could have some jam on toast later, if they behaved. Lily and Tom smiled and nodded. They liked jam, but they liked their mom more. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big slide and a swing. They want to have fun. + +"Can I go on the slide first?" Sara asks Ben. + +"OK, you can go first. Then I will go," Ben says. He is a helpful friend. + +Sara runs to the slide and climbs up. She is happy. She slides down fast and laughs. She sees Ben waiting for his turn. + +But then, a big boy comes. He is mean. He pushes Ben away and steals his spot. He goes on the slide before Ben. + +"Hey, that is not fair! You stole my spot!" Ben shouts. He is sad and angry. + +Sara sees what happens. She does not like the big boy. She wants to help Ben. She runs to the big boy and says, "You are not nice. You should not steal. Give Ben his spot back. He was here first." + +The big boy looks at Sara. He is not scared of her. He says, "No, I will not. I am bigger than you. I can do what I want. Go away." + +Sara does not go away. She stands up to the big boy. She says, "You are bigger, but you are not better. You are mean and rude. You should say sorry to Ben. He is my friend. He is helpful and kind. You are not." + +The big boy does not like what Sara says. He feels ashamed. He knows he did wrong. He says, "OK, OK, I am sorry. I will not steal again. You can have your spot back, Ben." + +Ben is happy. He says, "Thank you, Sara. You are a good friend. You are brave and smart. You helped me." + +Sara smiles. She says, "You are welcome, Ben. You are a good friend too. You let me go first. You are generous and patient. You are fun." + +They hug each other. They go on the slide together. They have fun. Their moms are proud of them. They say, "You are good kids. You are helpful and respectful. You are growing up fast. You are almost four years old." +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. But they also liked to look at the pond. The pond had fish and ducks and frogs. Sometimes they fed the fish and ducks with bread. + +One day, they saw a man with a stick and a hook. He was trying to catch a fish. Lily and Ben were curious. They went closer to the man and asked him what he was doing. + +"I'm fishing," the man said. "I like to catch fish and take them home." + +"Why do you do that?" Lily asked. "The fish are happy in the pond. They have friends and food and water." + +The man shrugged. "I like to eat fish. They are tasty and healthy." + +Ben frowned. He did not like the idea of eating the fish. He liked the fish. He thought they were pretty and fun. He had a suggestion. + +"Maybe you can do something else," he said. "Maybe you can draw the fish or make a story about them. Then you can leave them in the pond. They will be happier and you will be happier too." + +The man looked at Ben. He thought for a moment. He smiled. + +"That's a good suggestion," he said. "You are a smart and kind boy. Maybe I will try that. Maybe I will enjoy fishing more if I don't hurt the fish." + +He put away his stick and his hook. He took out a paper and a pencil. He started to draw the fish. He asked Lily and Ben to help him. They were happy to help. They had fun drawing and making stories. The fish were happy too. They swam and splashed and thanked them. The pond was peaceful and beautiful. Lily and Ben and the man were friends. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Tom finds a gun in his dad's room. He thinks it is a toy. He takes it and puts it in his backpack. + +"Look, Sam, I have a new toy!" Tom says. He shows Sam the gun. "It makes a loud noise. Do you want to play with it?" + +Sam is scared. He knows the gun is not a toy. He knows the gun is bad. He shakes his head. "No, Tom, that is not a toy. That is a gun. Guns are bad. They can hurt people. Put it back in your dad's room." + +Tom does not listen. He thinks Sam is silly. He wants to have fun. He says, "No, Sam, you are wrong. This is a toy. It is fun. Watch me." He points the gun at a tree and pulls the trigger. + +BANG! The gun makes a loud noise. A bird falls from the tree. It does not move. Tom and Sam are shocked. They run to the bird. The bird is bleeding. The bird is dead. + +Tom starts to cry. He drops the gun. He says, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I did not mean to. It was a toy. It was a toy." + +Sam is angry. He says, "No, Tom, it was not a toy. It was a gun. You killed the bird. You are bad. I don't want to be your friend anymore." He runs away. + +Tom is alone. He is sad. He is scared. He wishes he never found the gun. He wishes he listened to Sam. He wishes he could bring the bird back to life. But he can't. He made a big mistake. He did a bad thing. He is in trouble. +Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play with cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. Some were made of plastic and some were made of steel. Steel cars were stronger and heavier than plastic cars. + +One day, Tim and Kim wanted to fit their cars in a big box. They took turns putting their cars in the box. Tim put his red steel car in the box first. It was very big and took a lot of space. Kim put her yellow plastic car in the box next. It was smaller and lighter than Tim's car. There was still some room in the box. + +Then, Tim wanted to put his blue steel car in the box too. He tried to push it in, but it did not fit. The box was too full. He said, "Move your car, Kim. I want to put my car in the box." + +Kim said, "No, Tim. You already have one car in the box. It is not fair. You have to share the box with me." + +Tim and Kim started to argue. They pulled and pushed their cars. They made loud noises. They did not listen to each other. + +Mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw the box and the cars. She said, "Tim and Kim, stop fighting. You have to be nice to each other. You have enough cars to play with. You do not need to fit them all in the box. Why don't you take some cars out and play with them on the floor?" + +Tim and Kim looked at Mom. They felt sorry for being mean. They said, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Kim. Sorry, Tim." + +They took some cars out of the box and played with them on the floor. They had fun and shared their cars. They learned to be fair and kind. Mom was happy and proud of them. +Sara was a playful girl who liked to sing and dance. She had a toy angel that she loved very much. She always took the angel with her when she went to bed. + +One night, Sara had a dream. She dreamed that she was in a big garden with many flowers and trees. She saw her toy angel flying in the air. The angel smiled at her and said, "Hello, Sara. Do you want to play with me?" + +Sara was very happy and said, "Yes, please. What can we do?" + +The angel said, "We can clap our hands and make music. We can also fly and see the stars. Come with me, Sara. It will be fun." + +Sara and the angel clapped their hands and sang a song. They flew high and low, and saw the moon and the stars. They had a lot of fun in the garden. + +Sara woke up and saw that it was morning. She hugged her toy angel and said, "Thank you for playing with me. You are my best friend." + +The angel smiled and said, "You are welcome, Sara. You are my best friend too. I will always be with you in your dreams." +Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big box of colors. They could use the colors to draw, paint, or mix them together. + +One day, their mom told them she had to go to university. She said university was a place where big people learned new things. She said she would be back soon and asked them to be obedient and not make a mess. + +"Okay, mom, we will be obedient," Sara and Ben said. They hugged their mom and waved goodbye. + +But as soon as their mom left, they decided to have some fun with their colors. They took out all the colors and started to mix them together. They mixed red and yellow, blue and green, purple and orange. They made new colors and splashed them on the walls, the floor, the furniture, and each other. + +"Look, Sara, I made brown!" Ben said, holding a bottle of mixed colors. + +"Wow, Ben, that's cool! Let me see!" Sara said, grabbing the bottle. + +But the bottle was too full and it slipped from their hands. It fell on the floor and broke. The brown color spilled everywhere and stained the carpet. + +"Oh no, Ben, what did we do?" Sara said, scared. + +"I don't know, Sara, mom will be so mad!" Ben said, crying. + +They tried to clean up the mess, but it was too late. The colors were too hard to remove. They heard their mom's car in the driveway and ran to their room. They hid under their bed and hoped their mom would not see the mess. + +But their mom saw the mess as soon as she entered the house. She was shocked and angry. She called their names and went to their room. She found them under the bed and pulled them out. + +"Sara and Ben, what did you do?" she asked, sternly. + +"We're sorry, mom, we just wanted to mix colors," Sara and Ben said, sobbing. + +"That's no excuse, you were not obedient, you made a huge mess, and you ruined the carpet. You are in big trouble, young ones. You will have no toys, no TV, and no dessert for a week. And you will help me clean up this mess right now," she said, firmly. + +Sara and Ben felt very sorry and ashamed. They wished they had been obedient and not mixed colors. They learned their lesson the hard way. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big book of stories. The book had pictures of animals, fairies, and heroes. Sometimes, they read the stories out loud, and sometimes, they made up their own. + +One day, they found a new story in the book. It was about a wise old owl who lived in a tree. The owl knew many things, and he helped other animals with his wisdom. Tom and Lily wanted to learn from the owl, so they decided to act out the story. + +Tom put on a brown hat and a pair of glasses. He said, "I am the owl, and I live in this tree. Do not disturb me, or I will be angry." Lily put on a yellow dress and a pair of wings. She said, "I am a butterfly, and I fly around the flowers. I want to ask the owl a question, because I am curious." + +Lily flew to the tree and knocked on the trunk. Tom said, "Who is there? Go away, I am busy." Lily said, "Please, Mr. Owl, can I talk to you? I want to know why the sky is blue." Tom said, "That is a silly question. The sky is blue because it is. Now leave me alone, or I will peck you." + +Lily was not happy. She said, "You are not a nice owl. You are rude and mean. You do not share your wisdom, you only keep it for yourself." Tom said, "I do not care what you think. You are a noisy butterfly, and you disturb my peace. Go away, or I will peck you harder." + +Lily flew away, but she did not give up. She came back with a big stick. She said, "I have a new question for you, Mr. Owl. How do you like this stick?" She hit the tree with the stick, making a loud noise. Tom was very uncomfortable. He said, "Stop it, stop it, you are hurting me. You are a bad butterfly, and you make me angry." + +Lily said, "Now you know how I feel. You hurt me with your words. You are a bad owl, and you make me sad." Tom said, "I am sorry, I am sorry, I did not mean to. Please, stop hitting me, and I will answer your question. I will share my wisdom with you." + +Lily stopped hitting the tree. She said, "Really? You will be nice to me?" Tom said, "Yes, yes, I will. I learned my lesson. You taught me to be kind and polite. Now, what do you want to know?" Lily said, "I want to know why the sky is blue." Tom said, "The sky is blue because it reflects the light of the sun. The sun is a big ball of fire that gives us warmth and brightness. Do you understand?" Lily said, "Yes, I do. Thank you, Mr. Owl. You are very smart and helpful. Can we be friends?" Tom said, "Yes, we can. You are very brave and clever. I am sorry for being rude and mean. Can you forgive me?" Lily said, "Yes, I can. You are sorry for being bad. I am happy to be your friend." They hugged each other and smiled. + +The end. +Lily and Tom were playing dress-up in their room. They had many cloths of different colors and shapes. They liked to pretend they were kings and queens, pirates and fairies, or anything they wanted. + +"Look, I found a white cloth with stars on it!" Lily said. "I can be a princess from the sky!" + +"That's pretty, Lily," Tom said. "But I want to be a pirate. I need a black cloth with a skull on it. Do you see one?" + +Lily looked around the room. She saw a black cloth, but it had no skull. It had a big red heart on it. She thought it was funny. + +"Here, Tom, I have a black cloth for you," she said. She gave him the cloth with the heart. + +Tom looked at the cloth. He did not like it. He wanted a skull, not a heart. He felt angry. + +"No, Lily, this is not a pirate cloth! This is a silly cloth! I don't want it!" he said. He threw the cloth on the floor. + +Lily felt sad. She did not mean to make Tom angry. She wanted to play with him. She picked up the cloth from the floor. + +"Sorry, Tom, I was trying to help. I don't see a skull cloth. Maybe we can choose another game to play," she said. + +Tom looked at Lily. He saw that she was sad. He felt sorry. He did not want to make Lily sad. He wanted to play with her too. + +"Sorry, Lily, I was rude. You are a good sister. Maybe we can share the cloths and be both pirates and princesses," he said. + +Lily smiled. She liked that idea. She gave Tom a hug. + +"Okay, Tom, let's share. You can have the white cloth with stars, and I can have the black cloth with the heart. We can be the best pirates and princesses ever!" she said. + +Tom smiled too. He took the white cloth and put it on his head. Lily took the black cloth and tied it around her waist. They looked at each other and laughed. + +"Arrr, matey, are you ready to sail the seas?" Tom said. + +"Yes, your highness, let's go find some treasure!" Lily said. + +They held hands and ran out of the room, happy and ready for adventure. +Tom and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with toy soldiers and pretend they were in a war. They had a big box of soldiers, tanks, planes and flags. They wanted to decorate their room with them. + +"Let's make our room look like a war zone!" Tom said. "We can put soldiers on the bed, tanks on the floor, planes on the shelf and flags on the wall!" + +"OK!" Sam said. "But we have to be careful. Mom and Dad don't like it when we make a mess." + +They started to decorate their room with their toys. They had fun making noises and stories. They did not hear Mom and Dad come home. + +Mom and Dad opened the door and saw the room. They were very angry. They saw soldiers, tanks, planes and flags everywhere. They saw scratches on the wall, stains on the bed and broken toys on the floor. + +"What have you done?" Mom shouted. "This is not a war zone, this is our home! You have ruined everything!" + +"We were just playing!" Tom said. "We wanted to decorate our room!" + +"Decorate? This is not decorating, this is destroying!" Dad said. "You have no respect for our things! You have no idea how important they are!" + +Mom and Dad took away all their toys. They made them clean up the room. They sent them to bed without dinner. They said they would not get any new toys for a long time. + +Tom and Sam cried. They felt sorry and sad. They wished they had not decorated their room. They wished they had not played war. They wished they had listened to Mom and Dad. +Sara liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had a cute dress and a shiny crown. Sara always put the crown on Lily's head and said, "You are the queen of the dolls, Lily. You are very pretty and kind." + +One day, Sara's brother Tom came into her room. He saw Lily and said, "What a silly doll. She has a crown, but she is not a queen. She is just a toy. I want to play with the crown. Give it to me." He reached for the crown, but Sara stopped him. + +"No, Tom. You cannot have the crown. It is Lily's crown. She is the queen of the dolls. You are not nice. Go away." Sara hugged Lily and moved away from Tom. + +Tom was angry. He said, "You are mean, Sara. You do not share. I will take the crown anyway. Watch me." He ran after Sara and tried to grab the crown. Sara ran away from him and shouted, "Help, help! Tom wants to take Lily's crown!" + +Sara's mom heard the noise and came into the room. She saw Tom and Sara running and yelling. She said, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting?" She took the crown from Sara's hand and looked at it. She said, "This is a very nice crown. Where did you get it, Sara?" + +Sara said, "It is Lily's crown, mom. She is the queen of the dolls. Tom wanted to take it from her. He was not nice. He was mean. I tried to prevent him, but he did not listen. Please give the crown back to Lily, mom. She will be sad without it." + +Mom said, "I see. Well, Sara, you did the right thing to protect Lily and her crown. But you also have to learn to share with your brother. Maybe you can let him play with the crown sometimes, if he asks nicely. And Tom, you have to learn to respect Sara and her dolls. You cannot take things that are not yours. You have to ask politely and wait for your turn. Do you understand?" + +Sara and Tom nodded. They said, "Yes, mom. We understand. We are sorry." Mom smiled and gave the crown back to Sara. She said, "Good. Now, why don't you play together nicely? Maybe you can make up a story about Lily and her crown. I'm sure she would like that." Sara and Tom agreed. They hugged each other and said, "We love you, mom. We love you, Lily." They played with the dolls and the crown, and they had fun. +Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they saw a big truck on the street. It had a long arm that could lift heavy things. Sara and Ben admired the truck and wanted to see it up close. + +They ran to the truck and climbed on the back. They saw a lot of boxes and bags inside. They were curious and opened some of them. They found clothes, books, toys and other things. They thought they were lucky and started to take some of the things they liked. + +"Look, Sara, I found a teddy bear!" Ben said. + +"Wow, Ben, I found a doll!" Sara said. + +They were so busy that they did not hear the truck driver coming back. He was angry when he saw them. He shouted, "Hey, what are you doing? Get off my truck! These are not your things! These are donations for the poor people who lost their homes in the fire!" + +Sara and Ben were scared and ashamed. They dropped the things they took and ran away. They did not know that the truck driver was helping others. They felt sorry for what they did. + +They went back to their home and told their mom what happened. Their mom was not happy. She said, "Sara and Ben, you did a bad thing. You should not take things that are not yours. You should respect other people's property. You should also be grateful for what you have. Some people have nothing. How would you feel if someone took your toys?" + +Sara and Ben realized their mistake. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We were wrong. We feel bad for the poor people. We want to help them. Can we give them some of our toys?" + +Their mom smiled and hugged them. She said, "That is very kind of you. I am proud of you. You learned a good lesson today. Come on, let's go to the truck and give the driver a tip. He will appreciate it." + +Sara and Ben nodded and followed their mom. They took some of their toys and put them in an empty box. They wrote a note that said, "We are sorry. We hope you like these toys. From Sara and Ben." + +They went to the truck and gave the box and the tip to the driver. The driver was surprised and touched. He said, "Thank you, Sara and Ben. You are very generous and brave. You made a mistake, but you fixed it. You made me happy. You also made the poor people happy. They will love your toys. You are good kids." + +Sara and Ben smiled and thanked the driver. They felt happy too. They learned to admire not only the truck, but also the driver and the poor people. They learned to be honest, respectful and helpful. They learned to share what they have. They learned a valuable lesson. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were brave knights and princesses. They had a big box that was their castle, and some sticks that were their swords and arrows. + +"Look, Lily, I have a bow and arrow!" Tom said, holding a stick with a string. "I can shoot the bad dragon!" + +"Wow, Tom, you are so strong!" Lily said, clapping her hands. "But where is the dragon?" + +Tom pointed to a big pile of leaves. "There! He is hiding under the leaves. He is big and scary and he can rot our castle!" + +Lily gasped. "Oh no, we have to stop him! Let's attack!" + +Tom and Lily ran towards the pile of leaves, waving their sticks. They shouted and laughed as they threw leaves in the air. They did not see that their dog, Spot, was watching them from behind a tree. + +Spot was a playful dog. He liked to join in the fun. He saw the sticks and thought they were toys. He ran out of his hiding place and jumped on Tom and Lily. He grabbed Tom's stick in his mouth and ran away. + +"Hey, Spot, give me back my arrow!" Tom cried, chasing after him. "That's not for you!" + +Lily giggled. She picked up another stick and followed Tom and Spot. She did not mind that Spot took the arrow. She thought it was funny. She loved playing with her brother and her dog. They had a lot of fun in the garden. +Tim and Sam liked to play hockey with their friends. They had sticks and a ball and a net. They wore helmets and gloves to be safe. They had fun and learned to share and work together. + +One day, a new boy came to play with them. His name was Leo. He had a big stick and a shiny helmet. He said he was very good at hockey and he wanted to be the leader. He did not listen to Tim and Sam or their friends. He wanted to score all the goals and he did not pass the ball. He said he was better than everyone else. + +Tim and Sam did not like Leo. They thought he was mean and rude. They tried to talk to him and tell him to be nice, but he did not care. He said he did not need them. He said he could play hockey by himself. + +Leo tried to play hockey by himself, but he soon found out that it was not fun. He had no one to attach the ball to or to cheer for him or to help him. He felt lonely and bored. He saw Tim and Sam and their friends having a good time. They played as a team and they smiled and laughed. They looked happy. + +Leo realized that he was wrong. He wanted to play with them and be their friend. He went to them and said he was sorry. He said he wanted to learn from them and share with them. He said he did not want to be the leader anymore. He said he wanted to be ordinary, like them. + +Tim and Sam and their friends forgave Leo. They welcomed him to their team and gave him a high-five. They let him play with them and they taught him how to be a good sport. They had fun and learned to respect and appreciate each other. + +The moral of the story is: It is better to be ordinary and kind than to be special and mean. Playing with others is more fun than playing alone. Everyone can learn and grow from each other. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with powder. They have a big box of powder in their room. They use the powder to make snow, cakes, and art. + +Today is their birthday. They want to celebrate with powder. They put on their hats and blow their horns. They take the box of powder and go to the living room. They see a big cake on the table. They think the cake needs more powder. + +They open the box and throw the powder on the cake. They laugh and clap. They think the cake looks better. But Mom and Dad do not think so. They come to the living room and see the mess. They are not happy. They tell Sara and Ben to stop and clean up. + +But Sara and Ben are stubborn. They do not want to stop. They want to play more. They run away from Mom and Dad. They throw more powder in the air. They make a big cloud of powder. They think it is fun. + +Mom and Dad are not amused. They chase Sara and Ben. They catch them and hug them. They tell them they love them, but they have to learn to listen. They tell them they have to help clean up the powder. They tell them they can still celebrate their birthday, but without the powder. + +Sara and Ben are sorry. They say they are sorry. They help Mom and Dad clean up the powder. They say thank you for the cake. They hug Mom and Dad. They sing happy birthday. They eat the cake. They still have fun. They learn to celebrate with love, not powder. +Tim and Lily liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big animal. The animal was soft and brown and had a long neck. They called it Giraffe. + +One day, Tim and Lily were playing with Giraffe in their room. They threw Giraffe in the air and caught it. They hugged Giraffe and made it talk. They had fun with Giraffe. + +But then, Tim had a bad idea. He wanted to see what was inside Giraffe. He took a pair of scissors and cut Giraffe's neck. He pulled out the white stuff and the red string. He laughed and said, "Look, Lily, Giraffe has a hole!" + +Lily was very sad and angry. She loved Giraffe and did not want it to be hurt. She cried and said, "Tim, you are mean! You broke Giraffe! Giraffe is our friend, not a toy!" + +Tim saw that Lily was crying and felt sorry. He realized that he had done a bad thing. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was curious. I didn't mean to break Giraffe. Can we fix it?" + +Lily shook her head and said, "No, Tim, we can't fix it. You broke it too much. Now Giraffe is gone. You should be careful with your toys. They are not for breaking. They are for playing and loving." + +Tim learned his lesson. He hugged Lily and said, "You are right, Lily. I was wrong. I will be good with my toys from now on. And I will be good with you, too. You are my sister and I love you." + +Lily smiled and said, "I love you, too, Tim. But I still miss Giraffe." + +Tim and Lily hugged each other and said goodbye to Giraffe. They buried Giraffe in the garden and planted a flower on top. They hoped that Giraffe was happy in the sky. They never broke their toys again. They were good children. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play together. Tomorrow is Lily's birthday. Tom wants to make a present for Lily. He thinks hard. What does Lily like? + +Tom remembers that Lily likes to draw. He has some paper and crayons. He can make a picture for Lily. He takes the paper and crayons and goes to his room. He draws a big sun, a green tree, and a blue bird. He writes "Happy Birthday Lily" on the bottom. He is happy with his picture. + +He folds the paper and puts it in an envelope. He writes "To Lily" on the front. He runs to Lily's house. He knocks on the door. Lily's mom opens the door. She smiles and says, "Hello, Tom. What do you have there?" + +Tom says, "It's a present for Lily. Can I give it to her?" + +Lily's mom says, "Of course. Come in. Lily is in the living room." + +Tom follows Lily's mom. He sees Lily sitting on the couch. She is playing with her doll. She looks up and sees Tom. She smiles and says, "Hi, Tom. What are you doing here?" + +Tom says, "I came to say happy birthday. I made a present for you. Here you go." + +He hands the envelope to Lily. Lily opens it and sees the picture. She gasps and says, "Wow, Tom. This is so beautiful. You drew a sun, a tree, and a bird. And you wrote my name. Thank you so much. This is the best present ever." + +She hugs Tom and says, "You are a very good friend. I love your picture." + +Tom feels happy. He says, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you like it. I love you too." + +They hug again and then play with the doll and the picture. They have a lot of fun. They are very happy. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys. Tom has a drum. He likes to make loud sounds with it. Lily wants to try the drum too. + +"Can I play with your drum, Tom?" Lily asks. + +"OK, but be careful. It is my favorite toy," Tom says. + +Lily takes the drum and hits it hard. She likes the noise. She hits it harder and harder. Tom watches her and feels worried. + +"Lily, stop! You are hitting it too hard. You will break it!" Tom says. + +But Lily does not listen. She hits the drum one more time. CRACK! The drum is broken. The skin is torn. The noise is gone. + +Lily looks at the drum. She feels sorry. She gives it back to Tom. + +"I'm sorry, Tom. I broke your drum. I did not mean to," Lily says. + +Tom takes the drum. He sees the hole. He feels sad and angry. He does not want to play with Lily anymore. + +"You broke my drum! You are a bad friend! I don't want to see you again!" Tom says. + +He runs away with his broken drum. Lily cries. She wants to say sorry again. She wants to be friends with Tom. But Tom does not look back. He is gone. +Lily was a flower who loved to bloom. She had many petals of pink and white, and a sweet smell. She liked to show off her beauty to the other flowers and the bees. She did not care about anyone else, only herself. + +One day, a big storm came. The wind was strong and the rain was heavy. Lily was scared and tried to hide under her leaves. But the storm was too bad and broke her stem. She fell to the ground, wet and hurt. She cried for help, but no one came. + +She saw the other flowers, who had stuck together and helped each other. They had bent their stems and held their petals close. They had shared their roots and leaves. They had stayed strong and safe. They looked at Lily with pity and sadness. + +Lily felt ashamed and sorry. She realized that she had been bad to the other flowers and the bees. She had been selfish and proud. She had not been a good friend. She wished she could change and be kind and humble. + +She learned a lesson that day. She learned that beauty is not everything, and that friendship is more important. She learned that blooming is not only about showing off, but also about sharing and caring. She learned that being good is better than being bad. +Lily was a very independent girl. She liked to do things by herself, without help from anyone. She did not like to listen to her mom or dad, or to follow their rules. She thought she knew better than them. + +One day, Lily decided to go to the park by herself. She did not tell her mom or dad, she just put on her shoes and coat and ran out of the door. She did not look both ways before crossing the street, she did not stay on the sidewalk, she did not watch out for cars or bikes or dogs. She just ran and ran, feeling free and happy. + +She reached the park and saw a big slide. She loved slides, they were so fun and fast. She ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. She did not wait for her turn, she did not share with the other kids, she did not say please or thank you. She just pushed and shoved and slid down the slide. + +She slid down the slide so fast that she flew off the end and landed on the ground. She felt a sharp pain in her leg and started to cry. She looked at her leg and saw blood and dirt. She was scared and hurt and alone. She wanted her mom and dad, she wanted their help and hugs and kisses. She realized she had made a big mistake. + +She tried to stand up, but her leg was too sore. She tried to call for help, but no one heard her. She tried to see her mom and dad, but they were nowhere in sight. She felt sad and sorry and lonely. She wished she had listened to her mom and dad, she wished she had followed their rules, she wished she had not been so independent. She learned a hard lesson. +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big red balloon tied to a fence. They wanted to have it, but they did not know who it belonged to. + +"Let's ask Mom if we can take it," Ben said. + +"No, let's just take it. Mom won't know," Lily said. She was very nosy and did not like to wait. + +She ran to the fence and untied the balloon. She held it in her hand and smiled. Ben followed her, but he felt bad. + +"Look, we have a balloon!" Lily said. "Let's make it soar in the sky!" + +She threw the balloon up in the air and watched it fly. Ben looked up too, but he saw something else. A man was running towards them, looking angry. He had a wallet in his hand. + +"Hey, that's my balloon!" the man shouted. "I bought it for my son's birthday! Give it back!" + +Lily and Ben were scared. They did not know what to do. The balloon was too high to catch. The man was too fast to run away. + +They wished they had listened to Ben and asked Mom first. They learned a hard lesson that day. Taking things that are not yours can get you in trouble. And being nosy can make you lose a friend. +Sam liked to fix things. He had a box of tools and he would fix his toys, his bike, and sometimes things in the house. He liked to help his dad fix things too. + +One day, Sam saw a big book on the shelf. It had many words and pictures in it. Sam wanted to see what was inside. He took the book and opened it. But the book was too heavy and old. Some of the pages ripped and fell out. Sam was upset. He tried to fix the book with tape, but it did not work. + +"Sam, what are you doing?" his dad asked. He saw the book and the mess. He was upset too. "That is my dictionary. It is very important. You should not touch it without asking." + +"I'm sorry, dad. I wanted to see the book. I tried to fix it, but I couldn't," Sam said. He felt bad. + +His dad sighed. He picked up the book and the pages. He hugged Sam. "It's okay, Sam. I know you like to fix things. But some things are not for fixing. They are for reading and learning. Do you want to learn some words from the dictionary?" + +Sam nodded. He liked to learn new words. He and his dad sat on the couch and looked at the dictionary. His dad showed him some words and pictures. Sam learned what a dinosaur, a rainbow, and a volcano were. He was happy. He and his dad fixed their feelings. +Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a big box of blocks and Tom had a small bag of cars. They wanted to build a tower and a road together. + +"Can I have some blocks, please?" Tom asked Lily. + +"OK, but only a few. These are mine," Lily said. She gave Tom four blocks and kept the rest for herself. + +Tom tried to fit the blocks on his cars, but they were too big and heavy. They fell off and made a loud noise. Lily laughed and said, "Your cars are too small for my blocks. You need bigger cars." + +Tom felt sad and angry. He did not like Lily's blocks. He wanted his own toys. He saw a smelly sock on the floor. He had an idea. He picked up the sock and threw it at Lily. + +"Hey, that's gross!" Lily shouted. She dropped her blocks and covered her nose. "Why did you do that?" + +Tom smiled and said, "That's my message to you. Share your blocks or get more socks." + +Lily did not like Tom's message. She picked up a pillow and threw it at Tom. They started a pillow fight and forgot about their toys. They had fun until their mom came and told them to stop. She said, "What's going on here? Why are you throwing things at each other?" + +Lily and Tom looked at each other and said, "We were playing with our toys, but we did not fit. Then we sent messages to each other, but they were smelly. Then we had a pillow fight, but it was noisy." + +Mom shook her head and said, "That's not how you play with your toys or your messages. You need to use nice words and share your things. And you need to clean up this mess." + +Lily and Tom felt sorry and said, "OK, mom. We will do that." + +They hugged each other and said, "We are sorry. We are friends." + +They helped each other to put away their toys and their messages. They learned to fit better. +Lily was a poor girl who lived with her mom and dad in a small house. They did not have much money to buy food or clothes. Lily had only one dress that she wore every day. It was old and torn and had many stains. + +One day, Lily saw a big truck stop in front of her house. The truck had a picture of a refrigerator on it. Lily liked refrigerators. They were cold and had yummy things inside. She ran outside to see what was happening. + +The truck driver got out and opened the back of the truck. He took out a big white refrigerator and put it on a cart. He knocked on Lily's door and said, "Hello, I have a delivery for you. Someone sent you a gift. It's a new refrigerator!" + +Lily's mom and dad came out and looked surprised and happy. They thanked the truck driver and helped him bring the refrigerator inside. They plugged it in and opened the door. Inside, there were many good things to eat and drink. There were fruits and vegetables, milk and cheese, bread and butter, eggs and bacon, and even a cake with candles. + +Lily's mom and dad hugged each other and cried. They said, "This is a miracle! We don't know who sent us this, but we are so grateful. Now we can have a nice meal and celebrate Lily's birthday. She is our precious daughter and we love her so much." + +They turned to Lily and said, "Happy birthday, sweetie! This is your present. You can choose anything you want from the refrigerator. And we have another surprise for you. Look in this box." They gave Lily a small box wrapped in colorful paper. Lily opened it and found a new dress. It was pink and fluffy and had a bow. It was the most beautiful dress Lily had ever seen. + +Lily's eyes sparkled and she smiled. She put on the new dress and said, "Thank you, mommy and daddy! Thank you, whoever sent us the refrigerator! I feel like a princess. This is the best birthday ever!" She hugged her parents and they hugged her back. They cut the cake and sang happy birthday. They ate and drank and laughed. They were poor, but they were happy. They had each other and they had a refrigerator. +Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they saw a huge dog in the park. It was black and furry and had big teeth. Lily and Tom were scared of the dog. They ran to hide behind a bench. + +"Tom, I don't like the dog. It looks mean. What if it bites us?" Lily said in a low voice. + +"Don't worry, Lily. The dog won't hurt us. Maybe it is just looking for its owner. Maybe it is a nice dog," Tom said, trying to be brave. + +They gazed at the dog from behind the bench. The dog was sniffing around the grass. It did not see them. It found a ball and started to play with it. It wagged its tail and barked happily. + +"Look, Lily. The dog is not mean. It is just playing. Maybe it is lonely. Maybe we can be its friends," Tom said, feeling more curious. + +"Really? Do you think so, Tom? Maybe you are right. Maybe the dog is nice. But it is still huge. What if it jumps on us?" Lily said, feeling a little less scared. + +They watched the dog for a while. It seemed to have fun with the ball. It did not look angry or hungry. It looked friendly and cute. + +"Come on, Lily. Let's go and say hello to the dog. Maybe it will let us play with it. Maybe it will like us," Tom said, feeling more confident. + +"OK, Tom. But you go first. And be careful," Lily said, feeling more brave. + +They got up from behind the bench and walked slowly towards the dog. The dog saw them and wagged its tail more. It did not growl or bark. It looked happy to see them. + +"Hi, dog. We are Lily and Tom. We want to play with you. Can we play with you?" Tom said, smiling. + +The dog licked Tom's hand and nuzzled his face. It did not bite him. It liked him. + +"Hi, dog. You are very huge. But you are very nice. Can I pet you?" Lily said, reaching out her hand. + +The dog licked Lily's hand and nuzzled her face. It did not bite her. It liked her. + +Lily and Tom laughed and hugged the dog. The dog wagged its tail and barked happily. They played with the dog and the ball. They had fun. They were not scared anymore. They were friends. +Sara loves ponies. She has a toy pony that she plays with every day. She calls her pony Lily. Lily has a pink mane and a white coat. Sara brushes Lily's mane and tells her stories. + +One day, Sara goes to the farm with her mom and dad. She sees many animals there. She sees cows, sheep, pigs, and chickens. But she is looking for something else. She is looking for a real pony. + +She asks her mom, "Mom, where are the ponies?" + +Her mom points to a field. "There they are, Sara. Do you see them?" + +Sara looks and sees some small horses. They have different colors and sizes. Some are brown, some are black, some are gray. They are eating grass and running around. + +"Are those ponies, mom?" Sara asks. + +"Yes, they are, Sara. Do you want to go closer and see them?" + +Sara nods. She is very excited. She holds her mom's hand and walks to the field. She sees a fence that is high. She cannot see over it. + +"Mom, the fence is too high. I cannot see the ponies." + +Her mom lifts her up and puts her on her shoulders. "How about now, Sara? Can you see them now?" + +Sara smiles. She can see the ponies very well. She sees one that looks like Lily. It has a pink mane and a white coat. It is very pretty. + +"Look, mom, look! That pony is like Lily. Can I say hello to her?" + +Her mom says, "Sure, Sara. You can say hello to her. But be gentle and quiet. Ponies are shy and they do not know you." + +Sara says, "Okay, mom. I will be gentle and quiet. I want to be friends with the pony." + +Her mom lowers her down and helps her go through a gate. She walks with Sara to the pony. The pony sees them and stops eating. She looks at them with big eyes. + +Sara says, "Hello, pony. My name is Sara. I have a toy pony that looks like you. Her name is Lily. Do you want to see her?" + +She takes out Lily from her backpack and shows her to the pony. The pony sniffs Lily and makes a soft sound. She seems to like her. + +Sara says, "Do you like Lily, pony? She is my best friend. You are very pretty, pony. What is your name?" + +The pony does not answer. She cannot talk. But she nuzzles Sara's hand and lets her pet her mane. She makes another soft sound. + +Sara says, "I think you like me, pony. I like you too. Can I give you a hug?" + +The pony nods and lowers her head. Sara wraps her arms around her neck and gives her a hug. She feels warm and soft. + +She says, "You are very nice, pony. I am happy to meet you. I wish I could take you home with me. But I know you have to stay here with your friends. Maybe I can come back and visit you again. Would you like that, pony?" + +The pony nods again and licks Sara's cheek. She makes a happy sound. + +Sara says, "I think you would like that, pony. I would like that too. You are my new friend. I will not forget you, pony. Goodbye, pony. I hope to see you soon." + +She gives the pony another hug and then goes back to her mom. Her mom smiles and says, "Did you have fun, Sara? Did you make a new friend?" + +Sara says, "Yes, mom. I had fun. I made a new friend. Her name is pony. She is like Lily. She is very nice. I love her, mom. I love ponies." + +Her mom says, "I'm glad, Sara. I love you, Sara. You are very sweet. Come on, let's go and see the other animals." + +Sara says, "Okay, mom. Let's go. But can we come back and see the ponies again?" + +Her mom says, "Of course, Sara. We can come back and see the ponies again. Anytime you want." + +Sara says, "Yay, mom. Thank you, mom. You are the best mom. I love you, mom." + +She holds her mom's hand and walks to the other animals. She still has Lily in her backpack. She is very happy. She loves ponies. +Lily liked to play with her toy trumpet. She would blow it and make loud noises. She liked to pretend she was in a band with her friends. Sometimes, she would stretch her arms and legs and dance with the music. + +One day, she found a real trumpet in her dad's closet. It was shiny and big. She wanted to try it. She took it out and put it to her mouth. She blew as hard as she could, but no sound came out. She tried again and again, but nothing happened. + +She felt sad and angry. She threw the trumpet on the floor. It made a loud bang. She stomped her feet and cried. + +Her dad heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. He saw the trumpet on the floor and Lily crying. He picked up the trumpet and checked it. He saw that it had a dent and a hole. + +He said to Lily, "Lily, what did you do? This is my trumpet. It is not a toy. It is very old and special. It was my dad's trumpet. He gave it to me when I was a boy. Now it is broken. You should not touch things that are not yours." + +Lily felt sorry and scared. She said to her dad, "I'm sorry, dad. I wanted to play with it. I wanted to make music like you. I didn't know it was your dad's trumpet. I didn't mean to break it." + +Her dad hugged her and said, "I know, Lily. I know you love music. But you have to be careful with things that are not yours. You have to ask before you use them. And you have to treat them gently. This trumpet is very old and fragile. It needs a lot of care. Maybe one day, I can fix it and teach you how to play it. But for now, you have to play with your toy trumpet. It is more fun and safe for you." + +Lily nodded and said, "Okay, dad. I'm sorry. I love you." + +Her dad said, "I love you too, Lily. Come on, let's go to the kitchen. I have a surprise for you. I made some lemonade. Do you want some?" + +Lily smiled and said, "Yes, please. I like lemonade. But not too sour." +Sam liked to whistle. He whistled when he played, when he ate, and when he went to bed. He whistled songs he knew and songs he made up. He whistled to his toys, his mom, and his dog. + +One day, Sam found a needle in his mom's sewing box. He wondered what it was for. He picked it up and looked at it. It was shiny and pointy. He thought it might make a good whistle. He put it in his mouth and tried to blow. + +But the needle did not whistle. It hurt Sam's tongue and made him cry. He dropped the needle and ran to his mom. She saw the blood in his mouth and hugged him. She asked him what happened. He told her he tried to whistle with the needle. + +She said, "Oh, Sam, that was not a good idea. The needle is not for whistling. It is for sewing. It can poke you and make you bleed. You should never put it in your mouth. You should only use your lips to whistle." + +She took him to the bathroom and washed his mouth. She gave him a band-aid and a kiss. She said, "You are a brave boy, Sam. But next time, be careful with the needle. And if you want to whistle, just use your lips. They are dependable and safe." +Lily and Max were playing in the garden with their bubble wand. They liked to blow big bubbles and watch them float in the air. Sometimes they tried to catch them, but they had to be careful. Bubbles were fragile and popped easily. + +"Look, Max, I made a huge bubble!" Lily said, holding the wand in front of her mouth. She blew gently and a shiny bubble grew bigger and bigger. It was as big as her head. + +"Wow, Lily, that's amazing!" Max said, admiring the bubble. He wanted to touch it, but he knew it would pop. "Can I try?" + +"Sure, Max, here you go." Lily handed him the wand. "But be gentle, don't blow too hard." + +Max took the wand and put it near his mouth. He blew softly, but nothing happened. He blew harder, but still no bubble. He blew even harder, and then he heard a loud pop. He looked at the wand and saw that it was broken. The bubble liquid had spread all over his face and clothes. + +"Oh no, Max, what did you do?" Lily asked, shocked. She saw the broken wand and the wet mess. She felt sad and angry. "You broke my bubble wand! You blew too hard!" + +"I'm sorry, Lily, I didn't mean to." Max said, wiping his face. He felt sorry and ashamed. "I just wanted to make a big bubble like you." + +Lily and Max stared at each other for a moment. Then they heard a giggle behind them. It was their mom, who had been watching them from the window. She came out with a towel and a smile. + +"Come here, you two, let me clean you up." She said, wrapping them in the towel. "It's okay, accidents happen. I have another bubble wand inside. Do you want to try again?" + +Lily and Max nodded, feeling better. They hugged their mom and thanked her. They went inside to get the new bubble wand. They decided to share it and take turns. They learned that bubbles were fragile, but so was friendship. And they wanted to keep both. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a shiny thing on the grass. It is a diamond. Anna and Ben are very happy. + +"Look, Ben, a diamond!" Anna says. "It is so pretty and bright. Can we keep it?" + +"Yes, Anna, we can keep it. It is ours now. We can share it. It is very attractive," Ben says. + +They walk to the bench and sit down. They look at the diamond and smile. They think it is the best thing ever. + +But then, a man comes to the park. He is looking for something. He sees Anna and Ben with the diamond. He is angry. + +"Hey, you two, give me that diamond. It is mine. I lost it here. It is very valuable," he says. + +Anna and Ben are scared. They do not want to give the diamond to the man. They think he is mean and rude. + +"No, it is not yours. It is ours. We found it here. It is very attractive. We like it," Anna says. + +"Too bad. I want it back. Give it to me now, or I will call the police," he says. + +Anna and Ben do not know what to do. They hold the diamond tight and run away. They hope the man will not catch them. They want to keep the diamond. They think it is their treasure. +Timmy loved to play in the bathtub. He had many toys that he could splash and make bubbles with. He liked to pretend that he was a pirate or a diver or a fish. Sometimes, he stayed in the water so long that his fingers and toes became wrinkly. + +One day, Timmy's mom said that she had a surprise for him. She told him to get ready for his bath and wait in his room. Timmy was very curious and excited. He wondered what the surprise could be. He hoped it was a new toy or a bubble bath or a rubber duck. + +When Timmy's mom called him to the bathroom, he ran as fast as he could. He opened the door and gasped. The bathtub was not the same as before. It was bigger and deeper and had jets and lights and buttons. It looked like a spaceship or a submarine or a castle. Timmy's mom smiled and said, "Do you like your new bathtub? We changed it for you. You can have more fun and more space in it. Do you want to try it?" + +Timmy nodded and jumped into the bathtub. He felt the water swirl and tickle him. He saw the lights change colors and make patterns. He pressed the buttons and heard sounds and music. He played with his toys and made new stories. He was so happy and jolly. He thanked his mom for the surprise and said, "This is the best bathtub ever. I love it!" +Mia and Leo were hungry. They went to the kitchen to find some food. They saw a big tray on the table. It had bread, cheese, fruit and juice. + +"Wow, look at all the yummy food!" Mia said. + +"Let's eat!" Leo said. + +They climbed on the chairs and took some food from the tray. They chewed and chewed and drank and drank. They were very happy. + +But they did not see the cat. The cat was lazy. It did not want to hunt for mice. It wanted to eat the food on the tray. It jumped on the table and sneaked towards the tray. + +"Hey, go away, cat!" Mia said. She saw the cat trying to take a piece of cheese. + +"Meow!" the cat said. It did not listen to Mia. It grabbed the cheese and ran away. + +"Bad cat!" Leo said. He saw the cat trying to take a piece of fruit. + +"Meow!" the cat said. It did not listen to Leo. It grabbed the fruit and ran away. + +Mia and Leo were angry. They did not like the cat. They wanted to keep the food on the tray. + +They chased the cat around the kitchen. They tried to get the cheese and the fruit back. But the cat was fast. It hid under the sofa. + +"Come out, cat!" Mia said. + +"Give us our food, cat!" Leo said. + +But the cat did not come out. It did not give them their food. It ate the cheese and the fruit under the sofa. It was very happy. +Sam is a bird who likes to sing. He sings every morning when the sun comes up. He sings loud and clear, and he thinks he is great. He likes to repeat his song over and over. + +But not everyone likes Sam's song. Pat is a cat who lives near Sam's tree. Pat likes to sleep in the morning, and he does not like noise. He does not like Sam's song, and he does not think Sam is great. He thinks Sam is annoying and rude. + +One day, Pat decides to teach Sam a lesson. He waits under Sam's tree, and when Sam starts to sing, he jumps up and tries to catch him. Sam sees Pat and flies away, but Pat is fast and follows him. Sam is scared and tries to find a safe place to hide. + +He sees a big house with a window. He thinks maybe he can hide inside. He flies to the window and tries to get in. But he does not know that the window is not open. It is closed with glass. Sam hits the glass with his wing and falls down. He hurts his wing and cannot fly. He lies on the ground and cries. + +Pat sees Sam and smiles. He thinks he has won. He walks to Sam and gets ready to pounce. But then he hears a loud bark. It is Rex, the dog who lives in the house. Rex sees Pat and Sam and runs to them. He does not like cats, and he likes birds. He barks at Pat and chases him away. He licks Sam and helps him up. He takes him inside the house and gives him some water and food. He makes him feel better. + +Sam is happy and grateful. He thanks Rex and tells him he is great. He says he is sorry for singing so loud and annoying Pat. He says he will not repeat his song so much. He says he will be more careful and respectful. Rex says he likes Sam's song, and he says he is his friend. He says he will protect him and help him heal his wing. He says they can sing together. Sam smiles and agrees. He sings a little song with Rex, and they are both happy. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they saw a big pile of wood near the swings. They had a plan. + +"Let's build a house with the wood!" Lily said. + +"Yes, let's!" Ben agreed. + +They took some wood and started to stack it. They made a door, a window and a roof. They were very happy with their house. + +But then, a man came. He was angry. He shouted at them. + +"Hey, what are you doing? That's my wood! I need it for my work! You are very naughty!" + +Lily and Ben felt guilty. They did not know the wood belonged to someone. They were scared of the man. + +"We are sorry, mister. We just wanted to play. We did not mean to take your wood." Lily said. + +"Please don't be mad at us. We will put the wood back." Ben said. + +The man sighed. He saw that they were sorry. He was not so angry anymore. + +"Okay, okay. I forgive you. But don't do it again. And be careful with the wood. It can hurt you." He said. + +Lily and Ben nodded. They quickly took apart their house and put the wood back. They said sorry again and ran away. + +They learned a lesson. They should not take things that are not theirs. They should ask first. They should be respectful. They should be careful. They should be good. +Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the garden. They have a big box with seeds. They want to grow flowers. + +"Look, Sara, I have a yellow seed. I think it will grow a sunflower," Tom says. + +"I have a red seed. I think it will grow a rose," Sara says. + +They dig holes in the soil and put their seeds in. They cover them with more soil and water them. + +"Let's come back tomorrow and see if they grow," Tom says. + +The next day, Sara and Tom run to the garden. They look for their seeds. They see something green poking out of the soil. + +"Wow, they are growing!" Sara says. + +"They are healthy and strong," Tom says. + +They water them again and wait for more days. They watch their seeds grow bigger and bigger. They see buds and leaves and stems. + +One day, they see something amazing. Their buds are open. They have flowers. + +"Look, Tom, my rose is open. It is beautiful and smells good," Sara says. + +"Look, Sara, my sunflower is open. It is big and bright and happy," Tom says. + +They clap their hands and hug each other. They are proud of their flowers. They grow them with love and care. +Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big slide. It was shiny and red. Lily wanted to go on the slide, but Tom was scared. + +"Come on, Tom, it will be fun!" Lily said. "I believe you can do it!" + +Tom shook his head. "No, Lily, it is too high. And look, there is a strip of ice on the slide. It is very cold. We will slip and fall." + +Lily laughed. "Don't be silly, Tom. The ice will make us go faster. And we have our coats and hats. We will not be cold. Trust me, Tom, it will be fun!" + +Lily grabbed Tom's hand and pulled him to the slide. Tom felt his heart beat fast. He did not want to go on the slide, but he did not want to let Lily down. He closed his eyes and hoped for the best. + +Lily and Tom climbed to the top of the slide. Lily smiled and said, "Ready, Tom? One, two, three, go!" + +Lily and Tom pushed off the slide. They felt the ice under them. They went very fast. They screamed and laughed. They felt the wind in their faces. They felt the thrill in their bellies. + +They reached the bottom of the slide. They landed on a pile of snow. They were covered in white. They looked at each other and giggled. They had so much fun. + +"Wow, Lily, that was amazing!" Tom said. "You were right, it was fun!" + +Lily hugged Tom and said, "See, Tom, I told you. You just had to believe in yourself. And in me. We are a great team!" + +Lily and Tom got up and brushed off the snow. They ran to the slide again. They wanted to do it again. And again. And again. They had the best day ever. +Sara liked to ride her bicycle in the park. She had a red bicycle with a bell and a basket. She felt happy when she pedaled fast and felt the wind on her face. + +One day, she saw a new bicycle in the park. It was not ordinary. It was shiny and had many colors. It had lights and sounds and a big horn. Sara wanted to try it. She parked her bicycle next to it and climbed on the seat. + +But the new bicycle was too big for her. She could not reach the pedals or the brakes. She pushed the horn and it made a loud noise. She scared a dog and a bird. She did not know how to stop. + +A boy came running to the new bicycle. He was angry. He said, "That is my bicycle! Get off!" He pulled Sara off the seat and pushed her to the ground. He took his bicycle and rode away. + +Sara was sad and hurt. She cried. She wanted her bicycle. She looked for it, but she could not find it. Someone had taken it. She felt lost and alone. + +Then she heard a familiar bell. She saw her bicycle coming to her. It was her friend Tom. He had seen what happened and he had followed the boy. He had taken back Sara's bicycle and brought it to her. + +He said, "Are you okay, Sara? I'm sorry that boy was mean to you. Here is your bicycle. It is a nice bicycle. I like it. Do you want to ride with me?" + +Sara smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend. Yes, I want to ride with you." She got on her bicycle and rang her bell. Tom got on his bicycle and rang his bell. They rode together in the park. They felt happy. They did not need a new bicycle. They liked their ordinary bicycles. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big file in the office. The file has many papers with words and pictures. + +"Look, Tom, what is this?" Lily asks. + +"I don't know, Lily. Maybe it is a story file. Can we read it?" Tom says. + +They open the file and see many pages. Some pages have stories about animals and people. Some pages have numbers and shapes. Some pages have colors and stickers. + +"Wow, this is a fun file. Let's read the stories and play with the stickers," Lily says. + +"OK, Lily, but we have to be careful. This is not our file. It is Mom's file. She works with it. We have to put it back when we are done," Tom says. + +They nod and make a promise. They promise to put the file back when they are done. They start to read and play with the file. They have a lot of fun. + +But soon, they get tired and sleepy. They forget about the promise. They leave the file on the floor and go to the couch. They curl up and fall asleep. + +Mom comes home from work. She sees the file on the floor. She sees the papers and stickers everywhere. She sees Lily and Tom sleeping on the couch. She is not happy. + +She wakes them up and asks them, "What did you do with my file? This is not a toy. This is my work. You made a mess. You broke your promise." + +Lily and Tom feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We wanted to read the stories and play with the stickers. We forgot to put the file back. We were lazy." + +Mom sighs and says, "I understand, Lily and Tom. You like to read and play. But you have to respect my things. You have to keep your promise. You have to clean up your mess." + +Lily and Tom nod and say, "We are sorry, Mom. We will respect your things. We will keep our promise. We will clean up our mess." + +They hug Mom and say, "We love you, Mom." + +Mom hugs them back and says, "I love you, too, Lily and Tom. But next time, ask me before you touch my file." +One day, Sam and Lily went to the park with their mom. They saw many people in the park. They wore gray clothes and hats. They had flags and drums. They walked together in a line. They were doing a march. + +"What are they doing, mom?" Sam asked. + +"They are marching to remember something important. They are veterans. They fought in a war a long time ago," mom said. + +"War? What is war?" Lily asked. + +"War is when people fight and hurt each other. It is very bad and sad. These people were brave and helped to stop the war. Now they are friends," mom said. + +Sam and Lily watched the march. They saw some people wave at them. They waved back. They liked the flags and the drums. They clapped their hands. They wanted to say thank you to the veterans. + +"Can we say thank you, mom?" Sam asked. + +"Of course, you can. Let's go closer and say hello," mom said. + +They walked to the side of the road. They waited for a gap in the march. They saw a man with a gray beard and a medal. He smiled at them. He stopped and bent down. + +"Hello, little ones. Do you like the march?" he asked. + +"Yes, we do. Thank you for marching. Thank you for being brave. Thank you for being a friend," Sam and Lily said. + +The man hugged them. He gave them each a small flag. He said, "You are very welcome. You are very kind. You are very smart. You are the future. I hope you always remember this day." + +Sam and Lily nodded. They held their flags. They waved them in the air. They said, "We will remember. We will remember you." + +The man waved back. He joined the march again. Sam and Lily watched him go. They felt happy and proud. They learned something new. They made a new friend. +Lia and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were brave hunters. They had sticks that they called spears. They threw them at the trees and the bushes. + +"Look at my spear!" Tom said. "It is very long and sharp. It can catch any animal. It is impressive!" + +Lia was not impressed. She had a shorter spear, but it had a shiny stone at the end. She thought it was more beautiful and powerful. + +"My spear is better!" Lia said. "It has a shiny stone. It can make light and fire. It is impressive!" + +They argued about whose spear was more impressive. They did not want to share or play together. They were angry and sad. + +Then they saw a big dog running towards them. It had a collar with a name on it. The name was Rex. Rex was friendly, but he did not know Lia and Tom. He thought their spears were toys. He wanted to play with them. + +Rex jumped and barked. He grabbed Tom's spear with his mouth and ran away. Tom was scared and cried. He wanted his spear back. + +Lia felt sorry for Tom. She did not like to see him cry. She decided to help him. She ran after Rex with her spear. She called his name. + +"Rex! Rex! Drop the spear! It is not a toy! It is Tom's spear!" + +Rex heard Lia's voice. He saw her shiny stone. He was curious and stopped. He dropped Tom's spear and sniffed Lia's spear. He liked the shiny stone. He wagged his tail. + +Lia picked up Tom's spear and gave it back to him. She smiled and said. + +"Here is your spear, Tom. It is very long and sharp. It is impressive!" + +Tom smiled and said. + +"Thank you, Lia. You are very brave and kind. Your spear is very beautiful and powerful. It is impressive!" + +They hugged and became friends again. They decided to share and play together. They let Rex join them. They had fun with their spears and the dog. They were happy. +Tim and Kim were playing with water guns in the backyard. They liked to spray each other and run around. They laughed and shouted as they got wet. + +But then, a big dog came from the street. It was fierce and angry. It barked and growled at Tim and Kim. It wanted to bite them. + +"Help! Help!" Tim and Kim cried. They tried to spray the dog with water, but it did not stop. It ran with speed towards them. + +Tim and Kim ran to the house, but the door was locked. They forgot to take the key. They banged on the door and screamed for mom and dad, but they did not hear them. They were inside watching TV. + +The dog caught up with Tim and Kim. It jumped on them and bit them hard. Tim and Kim felt pain and fear. They wished they had not played with water guns. They wished they had stayed inside. They wished mom and dad would come and save them. But it was too late. The dog hurt them badly. The end. +Lily and Tom went to a big place to eat with Mom and Dad. They sat at a table and looked at a menu. A menu had many things to eat and drink on it. Lily and Tom could pick what they wanted. + +Lily liked pizza and juice. She pointed at the menu and said, "Pizza and juice, please." Mom smiled and said, "Good choice, Lily." + +Tom did not like pizza. He liked chicken and milk. He looked at the menu and saw a picture of chicken. But he also saw a picture of something ugly. It was green and slimy and had eyes. Tom did not know what it was. He did not want to eat it. He said, "Yuck! What is that?" + +Mom looked at the menu and laughed. She said, "That is not food, Tom. That is a frog. Some people like to eat frogs, but we don't. You can pick something else." + +Tom was glad. He did not want to eat a frog. He pointed at the menu and said, "Chicken and milk, please." Dad nodded and said, "Good choice, Tom." + +The waiter came and took their menu. He said, "Pizza and juice for Lily, chicken and milk for Tom, and salad and water for Mom and Dad. Is that right?" They all said, "Yes, thank you." + +They waited for their food and talked. Lily and Tom were happy. They liked to pick what they wanted from the menu. They hoped their food would be yummy and not ugly. +Ben and Lily were playing in the yard. They liked to jump in the big pile of leaves that their dad made with the rake. The rake was long and metal and had many teeth. Sometimes they pretended it was a dragon or a snake. + +"Look, Lily, I found a hairy bug!" Ben said, holding a fuzzy caterpillar in his hand. He showed it to his sister, who made a face. + +"Yuck, Ben, that's gross! Put it down!" Lily said, backing away. She did not like hairy bugs. She liked pretty bugs, like butterflies and ladybugs. + +"No, it's cool! Watch this!" Ben said, and he brought the caterpillar close to his face. He blew on it gently, and the caterpillar curled up into a ball. "See? It can shrink!" + +Lily was curious. She came closer and looked at the caterpillar. It was still hairy, but very small. She reached out her hand to touch it. + +"Careful, Lily, it might tickle!" Ben warned. + +But before Lily could touch the caterpillar, it uncurled and wriggled out of Ben's hand. It fell on the ground and crawled away, looking for a safe place. + +"Hey, come back!" Ben shouted, and he chased after the caterpillar. Lily followed him, laughing. + +They ran across the yard, looking for the hairy bug that could shrink. They had fun playing with the rake and the leaves and the bug. They did not see their mom watching them from the window, smiling. She was happy that they were happy. +Lily liked to read books. She had many books in her room. She read books about animals, princesses, and cars. She read books every day. + +One day, Lily wanted to read a new book. She asked her mom to take her to the library. Her mom said yes. They went to the library together. Lily was happy. + +At the library, Lily saw a big structure. It was made of blocks. It looked like a castle. Lily wanted to play with the blocks. She ran to the structure. She did not see the sign that said "Do not touch". + +"Hey, stop!" a voice said. It was a boy. He was older than Lily. He had glasses and a serious face. He was holding a book. "That's my structure. I made it. You can't touch it." + +Lily did not listen. She wanted to touch the structure. She reached for a block. She pulled it out. The structure started to fall. The boy shouted. The blocks crashed to the floor. Lily was scared. + +The librarian came. She was angry. She saw the mess. She saw the sign. She saw Lily and the boy. She said, "What happened here? Who did this?" + +The boy pointed at Lily. He said, "She did it. She ruined my structure. I was reading a book about castles. I wanted to make one. She destroyed it." + +Lily felt bad. She did not mean to ruin the boy's structure. She liked castles too. She liked books too. She said, "I'm sorry. I didn't know. I wanted to play with the blocks. I like castles. I like books." + +The librarian sighed. She said, "Lily, you should not touch things that are not yours. You should read the signs. You should be careful. You should say sorry to the boy." + +Lily nodded. She said sorry to the boy. The boy said sorry too. He said, "I was too serious. I should have shared. You can help me make a new structure. We can read a book about castles together." + +Lily smiled. She said, "OK. That sounds fun. Thank you." + +The librarian smiled too. She said, "That's better. Now, let's clean up this mess. Then, you can read and play together." + +Lily and the boy cleaned up the mess. They made a new structure. They read a book about castles. They became friends. Lily was happy. She liked to read books. She liked to make new friends. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park near their houses. One day, they saw a big truck in the park. The truck had many bags of grass in it. + +"What is that?" Lily asked. + +"I don't know. Let's go see," Ben said. + +They ran to the truck and saw a man putting the bags of grass on the ground. He was making a new lawn for the park. + +"Hello, kids. Do you like grass?" the man asked. + +"Yes, we do. It is soft and green and nice to touch," Lily said. + +"Can we have some grass?" Ben asked. + +"Sorry, kids. This grass is for the park. You can't take it home. But you can play on it when it is ready," the man said. + +Lily and Ben felt sad. They wanted some grass for their own yards. Their yards were brown and dry and hard. They were envious of the park. + +"Can we store some grass in our pockets?" Lily whispered to Ben. + +"No, Lily. That is not nice. The man will be angry. And the grass will die in our pockets," Ben whispered back. + +"Then what can we do?" Lily asked. + +Ben thought for a moment. Then he had an idea. + +"Let's ask our moms if we can plant some seeds in our yards. Maybe they will grow into grass," he said. + +Lily liked the idea. She smiled and nodded. + +"Okay, let's do that. Maybe then we will have grass like the park," she said. + +They thanked the man and ran back to their houses. They asked their moms for some seeds and water and tools. They worked hard to make their yards ready for the seeds. They hoped that soon they would have grass like the park. +Ben and Lily were playing by the pond. They liked to look at the fish and the frogs. They saw a big log in the water. Ben wanted to climb on it. He said, "Look, Lily, a log! Let's go on it!" + +Lily was scared. She said, "No, Ben, that's not a log. That's an alligator. It has big teeth and a long tail. It can bite us!" + +Ben did not believe her. He said, "You are silly, Lily. That's a log. I can see it. It's brown and smooth. It's not an alligator. Come on, don't be afraid." + +He ran to the pond and jumped on the log. He felt something move under him. He heard a loud snap. He saw the log open its mouth. It was an alligator! + +Ben was very scared. He screamed, "Help, Lily, help! It's an alligator! It's an alligator!" + +Lily saw Ben in trouble. She wanted to help him. She looked around and saw a tall man. He had a stick and a hat. He was a ranger. He worked at the pond. He knew about the animals. + +Lily ran to the man. She said, "Please, sir, please help my brother. He's on an alligator. It can bite him!" + +The man saw Ben and the alligator. He ran to the pond. He said, "Don't worry, little girl. I'll help your brother. Stay here and be calm." + +He took his stick and hit the alligator on the nose. The alligator let go of Ben. It swam away. It was angry and hurt. + +The man offered his hand to Ben. He said, "Come on, boy. You're safe now. That was a very foolish thing to do. You should listen to your sister. She was right. That was an alligator. They are very dangerous. You're lucky I was here." + +Ben took his hand and got off the log. He was wet and scared. He said, "Thank you, sir. Thank you for saving me. I'm sorry, Lily. You were right. That was an alligator. I was wrong. I won't do that again." + +Lily hugged Ben. She said, "I'm glad you're okay, Ben. I love you. Don't be silly again." + +The man smiled. He said, "You're welcome, Ben. I'm glad you're okay, too. You have a good sister. She loves you. You should love her, too. And you should be careful around the pond. There are many animals here. Some are friendly, some are not. You should respect them and learn about them. They are part of nature. And nature is wonderful, but also wild." + +Ben and Lily nodded. They said, "Yes, sir. We will. Thank you, sir." + +They walked away from the pond. They held hands. They learned a lesson. They were happy. +Sara and Tara are twins. They look the same, but they are unique. Sara likes pink and Tara likes blue. Sara likes dolls and Tara likes cars. Sara likes to sing and Tara likes to draw. + +One day, they go to a big party. It is their aunt's wedding. A wedding is when two people love each other and want to be together forever. They wear pretty dresses and flowers in their hair. They see their aunt and her husband. They are happy and smile a lot. + +Sara and Tara go to the cake. It is big and white and has many flowers on it. They want to taste it. They see a knife next to the cake. Sara has an idea. + +"Let's cut the cake!" she says to Tara. + +"OK!" Tara says. + +They take the knife and cut a big slice of cake. They put it on a plate and share it. It is sweet and yummy. + +But then, they hear a loud voice. It is their aunt. + +"Who cut the cake?" she asks. She is angry and sad. She sees Sara and Tara with the knife and the plate. She knows it was them. + +"Sara and Tara, why did you cut the cake?" she asks. "This is my wedding cake. It is special. You are not supposed to cut it until after I marry." + +Sara and Tara feel bad. They did not know they did something wrong. They did not want to make their aunt sad. + +"We are sorry, auntie," they say. "We did not know. We just wanted to taste the cake. It is very good." + +Their aunt sighs. She is not angry anymore. She loves Sara and Tara. They are her nieces. They are unique. + +She hugs them and says, "It's OK, Sara and Tara. I forgive you. You are still my little helpers. You can help me give out the cake to the guests. But next time, please ask before you cut something." + +Sara and Tara nod. They are happy again. They help their aunt with the cake. They say sorry to the guests. They also say congratulations to their aunt and her husband. They are happy for them. They hope they will be together forever. +Anna was miserable. She did not like school. She did not like the big kids who laughed at her. She did not like the teacher who gave her hard words to read. She did not like the books that had no pictures. She wanted to go home and play with her toys. + +One day, she had a new word to read. It was "hold". She did not know what it meant. She looked at the letters and tried to sound them out. But she got confused and said "hod". The big kids laughed at her. The teacher frowned at her. Anna felt tears in her eyes. + +She wished she had someone to hold her hand and help her. She wished she had her mom or her dad or her big sister. She wished she had her teddy bear. She loved her teddy bear. He was soft and cuddly and always made her feel better. She wanted to hold him and hug him. + +She looked around the classroom and saw a basket of toys. She saw her teddy bear in the basket. He was looking at her with his button eyes. He seemed to say "I'm here for you, Anna". Anna felt a spark of hope in her heart. + +She waited until the teacher was busy with the other kids. Then she got up from her seat and ran to the basket. She grabbed her teddy bear and held him tight. She felt his fur on her cheek and his arms around her. She felt warm and safe and happy. She whispered "I love you, teddy. You are my best friend. You know how to hold me". And she smiled. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big box of paint. The paint is in many colors: red, blue, yellow, green, and more. + +"Wow, look at this!" Tom says. "We can paint anything we want!" + +"Yes, let's paint!" Lily says. "But where can we paint?" + +They look around. They see a wall, a bench, a slide, and a tree. They think for a moment. + +"I know!" Tom says. "Let's paint the wall. It is very boring and gray." + +"OK, let's paint the wall!" Lily says. "But we have to be quick. The paint is hot. It will dry soon." + +They open the box of paint. They take some brushes. They start to paint the wall. They paint flowers, stars, animals, and faces. They have fun. They make the wall colorful and pretty. + +But then, they hear a loud voice. + +"Hey, what are you doing?" The voice says. "Stop that right now!" + +They turn around. They see a man. The man is angry. He is wearing a uniform. He is the park keeper. + +"This is my wall!" The man says. "You are not allowed to paint it. You are making a mess. You are ruining it." + +Tom and Lily are scared. They drop their brushes. They run away. They leave the box of paint behind. + +They run to the other side of the park. They hide behind a bush. They are sad. They are sorry. They did not mean to make the man angry. They just wanted to paint. + +"Maybe we should not have painted the wall," Tom says. + +"Maybe we should have asked first," Lily says. + +"Maybe we should say sorry," Tom says. + +"Maybe we should go back," Lily says. + +They look at each other. They nod. They hold hands. They walk back to the wall. They see the man. He is still angry. He is cleaning the paint. + +"Excuse me, sir," Tom says. + +"Hello, mister," Lily says. + +"We are sorry," they say together. + +"We did not know," Tom says. + +"We just wanted to paint," Lily says. + +The man looks at them. He sees their faces. They are honest and kind. He sighs. He smiles a little. + +"It's OK," he says. "I understand. You like to paint. But you have to be careful. You have to respect other people's things. You have to ask for permission. You have to clean up after yourself." + +"Yes, sir," Tom says. + +"Yes, mister," Lily says. + +"Can we help you clean?" Tom says. + +"Can we make it better?" Lily says. + +The man thinks. He nods. He gives them some cloths. He shows them how to wipe the paint. He tells them some stories. He teaches them some things. He is not so angry anymore. He is nice. + +Tom and Lily help him clean. They learn from him. They make friends with him. They make the wall clean and gray again. But they also make it happy and warm. They paint with their words and their smiles. They paint with their hearts. +Sara likes to work with her mom. Her mom is a yoga teacher. She helps people stretch and breathe and feel good. Sara likes to watch her mom and copy what she does. Sometimes, she can do the same poses as her mom. Sometimes, they are too hard or too twisty for her. + +One day, Sara and her mom go to a big park. There are many people there. Some of them have mats and towels. They are there for a yoga class. Sara's mom is going to teach them. Sara is excited. She wants to join the class too. She brings her own mat and towel. She puts them next to her mom's. + +The class starts. Sara's mom says hello to everyone. She tells them to sit and breathe. Sara sits and breathes too. She feels happy and calm. Then, her mom tells them to stand and reach for the sky. Sara stands and reaches too. She feels tall and strong. Then, her mom tells them to bend and touch their toes. Sara bends and touches too. She feels flexible and funny. + +The class goes on. Sara's mom tells them to do many different poses. Some of them are easy for Sara. Some of them are hard. Some of them are fun. Some of them are boring. Sara tries to do them all. She wants to work like her mom. She wants to make her mom proud. + +But then, her mom tells them to do a pose that is very hard. It is called a crow pose. It is when you balance on your hands and lift your feet off the ground. Sara's mom does it very well. She looks like a bird. Sara wants to do it too. She puts her hands on the mat. She tries to lift her feet. But she can't. Her feet are too heavy. They keep falling down. Sara feels sad and frustrated. She thinks she can't do yoga. She thinks she can't work like her mom. + +But then, her mom sees her. She smiles at her. She tells her that it's okay. She tells her that crow pose is hard for everyone. She tells her that she is doing great. She tells her that she is proud of her. She tells her that she loves her. Sara feels happy and loved.

She feels like a yoga teacher. She feels like her mom. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play outside. But today the weather is bad. It is cold and wet. The sky is gray and the wind is loud. + +Tom and Lily feel sad. They do not want to play inside. They want to see the sun and the flowers. They want to run and jump and laugh. + +"Can we go outside, Mom?" Tom asks. He looks out the window. He sees a big puddle. + +"No, Tom, it is too cold and wet. You will get sick. You can play inside with Lily. I have some toys and books for you." Mom says. She smiles and hugs Tom. + +"But we do not like to play inside. It is boring. We want to go outside." Lily says. She pouts and crosses her arms. + +"I know, Lily, but the weather is bad. You have to wait until it gets better. Maybe tomorrow the sun will come out and you can go outside. Why don't you try to make a picture or a story with Tom? That can be fun too." Mom says. She gives Lily a crayon and a paper. + +Tom and Lily look at each other. They do not feel happy. They do not want to make a picture or a story. They want to go outside. But they know Mom is right. The weather is bad. They have to wait. + +They sigh and sit on the floor. They start to draw and write. They make a picture and a story about the sun and the flowers. They use bright colors and happy words. They pretend they are outside. They smile and talk. + +They still feel sad, but they also feel a little bit better. They have each other. They are friends. They hope the weather will get better soon. They hope they can play outside tomorrow. +Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but they did not like to share them. They always wanted the same toy, and they would fight over it. They would pull and push and shout and cry, and make a big mess in their room. + +One day, their mom came to see them. She was not happy. She saw the toys all over the floor, and the twins still fighting. She said, "Sara and Ben, stop fighting right now! Look at this row of toys. You have so many, but you do not appreciate them. You do not know how to share and be kind. Do you know that some kids have no toys at all? They would be happy with just one toy, and they would take good care of it." + +Sara and Ben felt ashamed. They did not know that some kids had no toys. They looked at their mom and said, "We are sorry, mom. We did not think about that. We will share our toys and be kind. Can you help us pick up the toys and put them away?" + +Mom smiled and said, "Of course, I will help you. But first, I have a surprise for you. I have a new toy for each of you. It is a special toy that will remind you of something important. Do you want to see it?" + +Sara and Ben nodded. They were eager to see the new toy. Mom brought out two boxes and gave one to each twin. They opened the boxes and saw two stuffed animals. One was a bear and one was a bunny. They were soft and cute and had a heart on their chest. Mom said, "These are your new friends. The bear is called Share and the bunny is called Care. They will remind you to share and care for your toys and for each other. They will also remind you to be grateful for what you have and to help those who have less. Do you like them?" + +Sara and Ben hugged their new friends and said, "We love them, mom. Thank you. We will share and care and be grateful and helpful. We will not fight anymore. We will play nicely with our toys and with each other." + +Mom hugged them and said, "I am proud of you, Sara and Ben. You have learned a valuable lesson today. Sharing and caring are the best ways to make friends and to be happy." +Tom and Jen were playing with bricks in the yard. They liked to build towers and houses and castles with the bricks. They had many colors and shapes of bricks to choose from. + +One day, a big dog came into the yard. He was barking and running around. He knocked over Tom and Jen's bricks and made a big mess. Tom and Jen were scared and ran inside the house. They cried and hugged their mom. + +"Mom, the dog ruined our bricks!" Tom said. + +"Mom, the dog was mean and loud!" Jen said. + +Mom comforted them and said, "Don't worry, my loves. The dog was just curious and playful. He didn't mean to hurt you or your bricks. He was probably looking for a friend. Maybe he was lonely or bored." + +Tom and Jen felt a little better, but they were still sad about their bricks. They wanted to play with them again, but they were afraid of the dog. + +The next day, Mom had a surprise for them. She brought them a new box of bricks, with more colors and shapes than before. She also brought them a new friend: a small and fluffy puppy. She said, "This is Spot. He is the dog's son. He was also looking for a friend. He is very gentle and friendly. He likes to play with bricks, too. Do you want to play with him?" + +Tom and Jen were surprised and happy. They smiled and said, "Yes, Mom, we want to play with him!" + +They went outside with Spot and their new bricks. They built towers and houses and castles with the bricks. They also played fetch and tug-of-war with Spot. He was very fun and cute. He didn't knock over their bricks or make a big mess. He helped them to pick up the bricks and put them back in the box. + +Tom and Jen learned that not all dogs are mean and loud. Some dogs are gentle and friendly. They also learned that sometimes, things that seem bad can turn out to be good. They made a new friend and got new bricks. They were not scared or sad anymore. They were happy and grateful. +Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Anna had a whip that she used to make a loud crack. Ben had a toy car that he zoomed around the grass. + +"Look at me, I'm a lion tamer!" Anna said, cracking her whip. "Roar, roar, roar!" + +"I'm a race car driver!" Ben said, making his car go fast. "Vroom, vroom, vroom!" + +They laughed and played until Anna's whip hit Ben's car by accident. The car broke into two pieces. Ben was very sad. He loved his car. He started to cry. + +"Ben, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break your car!" Anna said, feeling bad. "Please don't cry, I'll help you fix it!" + +Anna ran to the house and got some glue and tape. She came back and tried to put the car back together. She glued the pieces and taped them. She gave the car to Ben. + +"Here, Ben, I healed your car!" Anna said, smiling. "It's not as good as before, but it still works. See, it can still go vroom, vroom, vroom!" + +Ben looked at his car. It was still fragile, but it was whole again. He stopped crying and smiled too. He hugged Anna and thanked her. + +"Thank you, Anna, you're a good friend!" Ben said, happy. "You're a good lion tamer and a good car healer!" + +They hugged and played some more. They were careful not to break anything else. They had a lot of fun. +Ben and Sam were brothers. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pond with ducks and fish. They wanted to feed them. + +"Look, I have a sandwich!" Ben said. He took out a sandwich from his bag. It had cheese and ham. + +"Can I have some?" Sam asked. + +"No, it's mine!" Ben said. He was not nice. He ran to the pond with his sandwich. + +Sam was sad. He wanted to share. He saw a rope on the ground. He had an idea. He tied the rope to a stick. He made a fishing rod. + +"Maybe I can catch a fish," Sam said. He threw the stick in the pond. He waited. + +Ben saw Sam. He laughed. "You can't catch a fish with that!" he said. He threw his sandwich in the pond. He wanted to tease Sam. + +But the sandwich landed on Sam's stick. The rope pulled the stick. Sam lost his balance. He fell in the pond. + +"Help!" Sam cried. The water was deep. He could not swim. + +Ben was scared. He did not know what to do. He ran away. + +Sam was alone. He sank in the pond. He could not breathe. + +The end. +Tom and Lily were two bears who liked to swim in the river. They swam very fast and splashed each other with water. They had a lot of fun. + +One day, they saw a big tree with honey in it. They wanted to eat the honey, because it was sweet and yummy. They climbed the tree and reached for the honey. But they did not see the bees who lived in the tree. The bees were angry and stung them. Tom and Lily cried and ran away. + +They ran to the river and jumped in. They hoped the water would make them feel better. But the water was icy and cold. They shivered and felt worse. They wished they had not been greedy and left the honey alone. + +They saw their mom and dad on the shore. They swam to them and told them what happened. Their mom and dad hugged them and licked their wounds. They said, "We are sorry you got hurt. Next time, be careful and do not take what is not yours. The honey belongs to the bees, and they will protect it. You have enough food and water here. You do not need the honey." + +Tom and Lily nodded and said, "We are sorry, mom and dad. We learned our lesson. We will not be greedy again. We will be happy with what we have." They snuggled with their mom and dad and felt warm and safe. They realized that swimming in the river was more fun than eating honey. +Lily liked to draw with her red crayon. She drew flowers and hearts and stars on her paper. She was very happy with her work. She wanted to show her mom and dad. + +She ran to the kitchen with her paper in her hand. She saw mom and dad cooking. They looked busy. Lily wanted to get their attention. She said, "Look, look, I made this for you!" + +But mom and dad did not hear her. They were talking and chopping and stirring. Lily felt sad. She wanted them to see her work. She thought, maybe if I make a loud noise, they will look at me. + +She saw a big pot on the stove. It had soup in it. It smelled good. Lily reached for the pot. She wanted to drop it on the floor. She thought, that will make a loud noise. Then mom and dad will look at me. + +But Lily did not know that the pot was very hot. When she touched it, it burned her hand. She screamed and let go of the pot. The pot fell on the floor. The soup spilled everywhere. It made a big mess. + +Mom and dad heard Lily scream. They turned around and saw what happened. They ran to Lily. They were scared and angry. They said, "Lily, what did you do? You could have hurt yourself and us. Why did you drop the pot?" + +Lily cried and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I just wanted you to see my work. I drew this for you with my red crayon. But you did not look at me. You were busy." + +Mom and dad hugged Lily and said, "We're sorry, too. We should have looked at you. We know you worked hard on your drawing. It's very beautiful. Thank you for making it for us. But you should never touch the stove or the pots. They are very hot and dangerous. You could have burned yourself or us. You should always ask for help or wait for us to finish. That's the safe and polite thing to do." + +Lily nodded and said, "I understand. I'm sorry I made a mess. I won't touch the stove or the pots again. I love you, mom and dad." + +Mom and dad said, "We love you, too, Lily. And we love your work. Let's clean up the mess together. And then we can hang your drawing on the fridge. How does that sound?" + +Lily smiled and said, "That sounds good. Thank you, mom and dad." + +The end. +Sam and Mia liked to play with the hose in the garden. They sprayed water on the flowers, the grass and each other. They laughed and ran around, getting wet and happy. + +But one day, the hose stopped working. Sam turned the tap, but no water came out. He looked at the hose and saw a big hole in it. He said to Mia, "Oh no, the hose is broken. We can't play with it anymore." + +Mia was sad. She liked the hose. She said to Sam, "Can we fix it? Can we get a new one?" + +Sam shook his head. He said, "I don't know how to fix it. And we don't have money to buy a new one. We have to find something else to play with." + +They looked around the garden. They saw a ball, a bike, a bucket and a rake. They were all ordinary things. They did not spray water. They did not make them wet and happy. + +Then they saw something shiny and red. It was a fire truck. It was not theirs. It was their neighbor's. He was a fireman. He sometimes let them play with his fire truck. It had a small hose and a water tank. It could spray water. + +Sam and Mia ran to the fire truck. They asked their neighbor, "Can we play with your fire truck, please?" + +The neighbor smiled. He said, "Sure, you can. But be careful. Don't spray water on the house or the car. And don't use all the water. I need some for emergencies." + +Sam and Mia nodded. They thanked their neighbor. They climbed on the fire truck. They took turns to drive and to spray. They sprayed water on the flowers, the grass and each other. They laughed and ran around, getting wet and happy. + +They forgot about the broken hose. They did not need it anymore. They had a fire truck. It was not ordinary. It was fun. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a bird on a tree. The bird is blue and yellow. It sings a nice song. + +"Look, a bird!" Tom says. He points to the bird. "I want to touch it." + +"No, Tom, you can't touch the bird. It will fly away. It will be scared of you." Sam says. He knows birds are not toys. + +But Tom does not listen. He runs to the tree. He climbs the tree. He tries to catch the bird. The bird sees Tom. It is scared. It pecks Tom's hand. It hurts. Tom cries. + +"Ow, ow, ow! The bird is hard! It bit me!" Tom says. He lets go of the bird. He falls from the tree. He hits the ground. It hurts more. He cries louder. + +Sam runs to Tom. He sees Tom is hurt. He is sad. He tries to help Tom. He calls for help. He says sorry to the bird. The bird flies away. It is free. It sings a sad song. +Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the woods. They had a big dog named Rex who always followed them. One day, they saw a chubby wolf in the trees. The wolf looked hungry and angry. + +"Let's run away!" Tim said. "The wolf will eat us!" + +But Sam was not afraid. He wanted to pet the wolf. He said, "No, the wolf is nice. He is just lonely. I will be his friend." + +Tim shook his head. "You are silly, Sam. The wolf is not nice. He is mean. He will bite you." + +Sam did not listen. He walked towards the wolf. The wolf growled and showed his teeth. Rex barked and ran after Sam. He wanted to protect him. + +"Sam, come back!" Tim shouted. "You forget, the wolf is bad!" + +But Sam did not hear him. He reached out his hand to touch the wolf. The wolf snapped at him and scratched his arm. Sam cried out in pain and fear. He ran back to Tim. Rex chased the wolf away. + +"Are you okay, Sam?" Tim asked. He hugged his brother and looked at his wound. It was bleeding. + +"I'm sorry, Tim," Sam said. "You were right. The wolf was bad. I forget, he was not a dog. He was a wild animal." + +Tim nodded. He said, "It's okay, Sam. I forgive you. But next time, listen to me. And don't forget, Rex is our friend. He saved you from the wolf." + +Sam smiled. He said, "Thank you, Rex. You are a good dog. And thank you, Tim. You are a good brother." + +They hugged Rex and each other. Then they went home to tell their mom what happened. +Sam liked cars very much. He had many toy cars that he played with every day. He liked to make them go fast and make loud noises. He also liked to watch real cars on the street and learn their names and colors. + +One day, his dad said, "Sam, we have to bring our car to the mechanic. He will fix it and make it work better. Do you want to come with me?" Sam was very happy and said, "Yes, yes, I want to see the mechanic!" + +They drove to the mechanic's shop, where they saw many cars and tools. The mechanic was a nice man who wore a blue suit and a hat. He smiled and said, "Hello, I am Tom, the mechanic. What can I do for you?" + +Sam's dad said, "Our car makes a strange noise when we drive. Can you check it and tell us what is wrong?" Tom said, "Sure, I will look at it and let you know. You can wait here or look around the shop, but be careful not to touch anything." + +Sam and his dad decided to look around the shop. Sam saw many different cars and parts. He asked his dad many questions, like, "What is this? What is that? How does it work?" His dad tried to answer as best as he could, but some things were too hard to explain. + +After a while, Tom came back and said, "I found the problem. Your car needs a new belt. It is not too expensive or hard to fix. I can do it in an hour. Is that okay?" Sam's dad said, "Yes, that is okay. Thank you, Tom. You are a very honest mechanic. You did not try to cheat us or charge us too much." + +Tom said, "You are welcome. I always try to be honest and fair with my customers. I like cars and I like to help people. I also like to teach kids about cars. Do you want to see how I fix your car, Sam?" Sam said, "Yes, yes, I want to see!" + +Tom said, "Okay, but you have to stay with me and listen to me. Cars can be dangerous if you are not careful. Do you promise?" Sam said, "I promise, I promise!" + +Tom took Sam and his dad to his work area, where he showed them the belt and how he replaced it. He also explained what other parts did and how they worked together. Sam was very interested and amazed. He learned a lot of new things. He said, "Wow, Tom, you are a very smart mechanic. You know everything about cars!" + +Tom said, "Thank you, Sam. You are a very curious and polite kid. You know a lot of things too. Maybe one day, you can be a mechanic too, if you want to." Sam said, "Maybe, maybe. I like cars very much. Thank you for showing me, Tom!" + +Tom said, "You are welcome, Sam. Anytime. Your car is ready now. You can go home and enjoy it. Have a nice day!" Sam and his dad said, "Thank you, Tom. Have a nice day too!" They got in their car and drove away. Sam was very happy and said, "Dad, that was the best day ever! I like Tom, the honest mechanic!" His dad said, "Me too, Sam. Me too." They hugged and smiled. +Anna was a new bride. She wore a white dress and a veil on her head. She was very happy to marry Tom, who loved her very much. They had a big party with cake and music and flowers. + +After the party, Anna and Tom wanted to go on a trip. They had a big bag with clothes and books and toys. They went to a big place with many planes. A plane is a big bird that can fly very fast and high. Anna and Tom had tickets to go on a plane. + +They gave their tickets to a lady who smiled and said, "Have a nice trip!" They walked to the plane and got on. They found their seats and put on their belts. The plane started to move and make a loud noise. Anna was a little scared, but Tom held her hand and said, "Don't worry, we will be fine. We will fly to a beautiful place and have fun." + +Anna looked out the window and saw the ground go away. She saw the clouds and the sun and the sky. She felt the plane go up and down and left and right. She thought it was like a ride at the park. She smiled and said, "This is fun! I like to fly!" + +Tom smiled and kissed her. He said, "I'm glad you like it. I love you, Anna. You are my new wife and my best friend. We will fly together and see many things." + +Anna hugged him and said, "I love you, Tom. You are my new husband and my best friend. We will fly together and be happy." They looked at each other and at the sky. They felt the veil of love around them. They were very happy. +Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand and look for treasures. Sometimes they found shells, rocks, or coins. They put them in their buckets and showed them to each other. + +One day, they found something shiny and hard in the sand. It was a diamond! They had never seen a diamond before. It sparkled like a star. They were very happy and excited. + +"Wow, look at this!" Lila said. "It's so pretty!" + +"Where did it come from?" Ben wondered. "Maybe someone lost it. Or maybe it fell from the sky." + +They decided to keep the diamond and share it. They wrapped it in a leaf and put it in their pocket. They ran to their mom and dad, who were sitting on a bench. + +"Mom, dad, look what we found!" they shouted. "It's a diamond!" + +Mom and dad looked at the diamond. They were surprised and curious. They had never seen a diamond like that before. It was very big and clear. + +"Where did you find it?" mom asked. + +"In the sand, over there," Lila pointed. "It was hidden." + +"Can we keep it?" Ben asked. "It's our treasure." + +Mom and dad smiled. They were proud of their children. They hugged them and said, "Of course you can keep it. It's a very special and rare find. You are very lucky and smart. We are happy for you." + +They took the diamond to a jeweler, who told them it was a real and valuable diamond. He said it was unknown where it came from or how it got in the sand. He said they could sell it for a lot of money or make it into a necklace or a ring. + +Lila and Ben decided to make it into a necklace for mom. They thought she would like it and wear it. They gave it to her as a gift. Mom was very touched and grateful. She put it on and said, "Thank you, my sweeties. This is the most beautiful and precious gift I ever got. I love you and I love this diamond. You are my diamonds." + +Lila and Ben smiled and hugged mom. They were happy to see her happy. They felt welcome and loved in their family. They wondered if they would ever find another diamond in the sand. They hoped they would. They liked to look for treasures. +Ben and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with marbles. They had many marbles of different colors and sizes. Ben had a big blue marble that he loved very much. He called it his lucky marble. + +One day, Sam saw Ben's lucky marble and wanted to have it. He thought it was the prettiest marble he had ever seen. He asked Ben if he could borrow it. Ben said no. He said it was his marble and he did not want to share it. Sam felt angry and sad. He thought Ben was mean and selfish. + +Sam waited until Ben was not looking and took his lucky marble. He ran away and hid it in his pocket. He thought he was clever and happy. He did not care how Ben would feel. + +Ben soon noticed that his lucky marble was gone. He looked everywhere for it. He could not find it. He felt scared and sad. He thought he had lost his lucky marble forever. He asked Sam if he had seen it. Sam lied and said no. He pretended he did not know anything. + +Ben started to cry. He loved his lucky marble very much. He felt it was his best friend. He wished he could have it back. + +Sam saw Ben crying and felt guilty and sorry. He realized he had done a bad thing. He took out his lucky marble and gave it back to Ben. He said he was sorry and he would never do it again. He said he had taken it because he thought it was pretty and he wanted to have it. + +Ben stopped crying and looked at Sam. He saw that Sam had an ugly green marble in his hand. He felt sorry for Sam. He said he forgave him and he would share his lucky marble with him. He said he did not mind the color of the marble. He said it was the fun of playing with it that mattered. + +Sam smiled and hugged Ben. He thanked him and said he was a good brother. He said he was sorry for lying and stealing. He said he learned his lesson. He said he would be more honest and kind. + +Ben and Sam played with their marbles together. They had a lot of fun. They felt happy and loved. They learned that sharing is caring and honesty is the best policy. +One day, a brown bear and a brown rabbit were looking for food in the forest. They saw a big tree with many nuts on it. The bear and the rabbit both wanted the nuts, but they did not want to share. + +"I saw the tree first, so the nuts are mine!" said the bear. + +"No, I saw the tree first, so the nuts are mine!" said the rabbit. + +They started to fight over the tree. The bear used his claws and teeth as weapons. The rabbit used his legs and ears as weapons. They scratched and bit and kicked and slapped each other. They made a lot of noise and hurt each other. + +A hunter heard the noise and came to the forest. He saw the bear and the rabbit fighting over the tree. He aimed his gun at them. He wanted to shoot them and take their fur. + +The bear and the rabbit saw the hunter and his gun. They were very scared. They stopped fighting and ran away. They hid behind some bushes and shivered. They realized that they had been foolish and greedy. They had wasted their time and energy fighting over the nuts, and they had almost lost their lives. + +They decided to make peace and share the nuts. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They went back to the tree and picked some nuts. They ate them together and thanked the tree. They learned that sharing is better than fighting, and that friendship is more important than food. + +The hunter did not find them. He went away empty-handed and angry. He learned that violence is not the answer, and that kindness is more rewarding. +Tim and Mia like to play in the dark. They have a flashlight and some paper. They use the flashlight to make shadows on the paper. Then they mark the shadows with a crayon. They make funny shapes and animals. + +One night, they hear a loud noise outside. They are scared. They turn off the flashlight and hide under the bed. They hear footsteps and a voice. + +"Who is there?" the voice says. It is Dad. He is looking for them. + +"Dad, we are here!" Tim says. He turns on the flashlight and waves it. + +Dad sees the light and comes to their room. He smiles and hugs them. + +"What are you doing?" he asks. + +"We are playing with the flashlight and the paper," Mia says. She shows him their marks. + +"They are very nice," Dad says. "But it is late. You should go to sleep now." + +He tucks them in and kisses them goodnight. He leaves the flashlight on the table. + +"Goodnight, Tim. Goodnight, Mia," he says. + +"Goodnight, Dad," they say. + +They feel calm and safe. They close their eyes and dream of shadows and marks. +Lily was a little girl who loved to sing. She sang every day, in the morning, in the afternoon, and at night. She sang to her toys, to her mom, to her dad, and to her cat. She sang happy songs, sad songs, silly songs, and made-up songs. + +One day, Lily's mom told her that they were going to a big place where many people sing and play music. Lily was very excited. She put on her favorite dress and her shiny shoes. She held her mom's hand as they walked to the big place. She saw many people sitting in rows of chairs. She saw a big stage with lights and curtains. She heard a loud sound that made her jump. + +"Shh, Lily, that's the bell. It means the show is about to start. We have to be quiet and listen," her mom whispered. + +Lily nodded and sat on her mom's lap. She watched as the curtains opened and the singers and musicians came on the stage. They sang and played beautiful songs that made Lily smile and clap. She liked the songs that were fast and loud, and the songs that were slow and soft. She liked the singers who wore colorful costumes and the singers who wore ordinary clothes. She liked the music that made her want to dance and the music that made her want to hug her mom. + +After a while, the singers and musicians stopped singing and playing. They bowed to the people and smiled. The people stood up and made a lot of noise with their hands. They were applauding. Lily joined them and applauded too. She was very happy. + +"Did you like the show, Lily?" her mom asked. + +"I liked it very much, mom. It was amazing. Can we see it again?" Lily asked. + +"Maybe another day, sweetie. But now we have to go home. It's getting late and you must be hungry," her mom said. + +Lily felt her stomach and realized she was hungry. She had been so busy watching and listening that she had forgotten to eat. She hoped there was something yummy for dinner at home. + +"OK, mom. Let's go home. But can I sing one more song on the way?" Lily asked. + +"Of course, Lily. You can sing as much as you want. You have a lovely voice," her mom said. + +Lily smiled and hugged her mom. She sang one of her favorite songs as they walked home. She was a little girl who loved to sing. +Lily and Sam were friends who liked to play in the park. They had a lot of toys, but Lily's favorite was her bright red bike. She loved to ride it around the paths and feel the wind in her hair. + +One day, Sam asked Lily if he could borrow her bike for a little while. Lily did not want to share, but she did not want to be mean either. She said yes, but only for a few minutes. Sam thanked her and got on the bike. He rode away, leaving Lily with his old ball. + +Lily waited and waited, but Sam did not come back. She started to feel sad and angry. She wondered where he was and why he did not keep his promise. She decided to look for him. She took his ball and walked around the park. + +She saw him near the swings, talking to another boy. He had given her bike to the boy, and they were laughing and having fun. Lily felt a surge of hurt and fury. She ran towards them, shouting, "That's my bike! Give it back!" + +Sam and the boy looked surprised and scared. They tried to explain that they were just trying it out, and that they would return it soon. But Lily did not listen. She grabbed her bike and threw Sam's ball on the ground. She told him that he was a bad friend and that she did not want to play with him anymore. She got on her bike and rode away, leaving Sam and the boy in the dust. +Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They saw a big tree with many flowers. They heard a buzzing sound. They looked up and saw a hive. The hive was full of bees. + +"Look, bees!" Lily said. "They make honey. I like honey." + +"Me too," Tom said. "Can we get some honey?" + +Lily saw a rope hanging from the hive. She had an idea. "Maybe we can pull the rope and get the honey," she said. + +Tom was not sure. "But the bees might sting us," he said. "They might not be friendly." + +Lily was brave. "Don't worry, I will be careful," she said. She reached for the rope and gave it a pull. + +But the rope was not for honey. It was a trap. The hive fell down and broke. The bees came out and were angry. They flew around Lily and Tom and buzzed loudly. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily and Tom cried. "The bees are stinging us! Help, help!" + +They ran away from the tree and back to the house. Their mom saw them and was worried. She took them inside and put some cream on their stings. She hugged them and said, "I'm sorry, my sweeties. You should not pull ropes from hives. The bees are not friendly. They need their home and their honey. Next time, ask me before you touch anything in the garden." + +Lily and Tom nodded. They learned their lesson. They said sorry to the bees and to their mom. They ate some cookies and drank some milk. They felt better and played with their toys. They did not pull any more ropes. +Jill and Tom were friends. They liked to play and have fun. One day, they heard about a parade in the town. They wanted to go and see the parade. + +"Let's wear our best clothes for the parade," Jill said. "We can look nice and pretty." + +"OK," Tom said. "I have a smooth shirt and a nice hat. What do you have?" + +"I have a smooth dress and a shiny necklace. Come on, let's go." + +They put on their best clothes and went to the town. They saw many people and cars and flags and balloons. They were happy and excited. They tried to find a good spot to see the parade. + +But then, something bad happened. A big dog came running and barking. It saw Jill and Tom and their smooth clothes. It thought they were toys. It jumped on them and bit them and tore their clothes. Jill and Tom were scared and hurt. They cried and screamed. + +"Help, help!" they shouted. "Go away, dog! Leave us alone!" + +Some people came and chased the dog away. They helped Jill and Tom and gave them bandages and hugs. They said they were sorry and asked them what happened. + +"We wanted to see the parade and wear our best clothes," Jill said. "But the dog attacked us and ruined our clothes." + +"That's too bad," the people said. "But you know, clothes are not that important. What matters is that you are safe and healthy. And that you have friends who care for you." + +Jill and Tom learned a lesson. They realized that clothes are not worth more than friendship and happiness. They thanked the people and went home. They decided to play and have fun with their old clothes. They did not care about the parade anymore. They were still friends. +Anna liked to admire the flowers in the garden. She thought they were pretty and smelled good. She wanted to pick some and make a bouquet for her mom. But her mom said she had to be patient and wait until they were ready. + +One day, Anna saw a big yellow flower that looked very bright and happy. She ran to it and asked, "Can I pick you, flower? You are so beautiful!" + +The flower did not answer, but Anna heard a voice behind her. It was a bee, buzzing and flying around the flower. The bee said, "Please don't pick the flower, little girl. The flower is my friend. I need the flower to make honey. And the flower needs me to make seeds. We help each other." + +Anna was surprised and curious. She asked, "How do you make honey, bee? And how does the flower make seeds?" + +The bee explained, "I use my tongue to drink the sweet juice from the flower. Then I carry it to my home, where I make honey. The honey is yummy and good for me and my family. And when I drink the juice, I also get some dust on my body. The dust is called pollen. When I fly to another flower, I leave some pollen on it. The pollen helps the flower to make seeds. The seeds grow into new flowers. The flowers are happy and good for the garden." + +Anna listened and learned. She said, "Wow, bee, you are very smart and kind. You and the flower are very special." + +The bee said, "Thank you, little girl. But we are not so special. We are just ordinary. We do what we are supposed to do. And so do you. You are supposed to admire the flowers, not pick them. You are supposed to be patient, not greedy. You are supposed to be friendly, not rude. That is what makes you a good person." + +Anna nodded and smiled. She said, "You are right, bee. I am sorry for wanting to pick the flower. I will admire it from here. And I will be patient and friendly. Thank you for teaching me, bee." + +The bee said, "You are welcome, little girl. And thank you for listening to me. You are a good person. And a good friend." + +Anna and the bee hugged and said goodbye. Then Anna went back to her mom and told her what she learned. Her mom was proud and happy. She gave Anna a hug and a kiss. And she said, "I love you, Anna. You are my sweet and smart girl." +Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play catch with their ball. They throw the ball to each other and run after it.

I'm glad you stayed clean today." + +Pat watched as the farmer walked away, and then he looked back at the meadow, still wondering what was beyond the farm. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Mia. She was 3 years old, and very brave. One day, Mia and her Mommy went for a walk in the park. Mia saw a lady walking towards them, and she smiled at Mia. Suddenly, Mia was surprised to see the lady had a big, dangerous dog! It barked very loudly. Mia's Mommy was worried, and said, "Let's go home, Mia." + +Mia was very scared and didn't want to go near the dog. Suddenly, the lady spoke. She said, "Don't worry, it's safe; my dog is very friendly!" + +Mia was so surprised that the lady knew how to speak. She looked very carefully at the dog, and was no longer scared. The lady said, "His name is Gizmo, and he would love to be your friend!" + +Mia said a big "Yes!". She patted Gizmo and giggled with joy. From that day onwards, Mia and Gizmo were best friends. And they both always surprised each other with new adventures. +John and Ella were the best of friends. They played together all the time, and shared everything. One day, they decided to try and climb the tall tree outside. John said he would go first, and even though Ella was scared, she leant him her support and said she would watch him. + +John started to climb and he made it to the bottom branch. He looked back down at Ella who smiled up to him. "This is going to be a success!" he said. But he hadn't noticed that this branch was not as lovely and strong as it looked. Just as he moved his foot onto it, it snapped and he fell out of the tree. + +Ella screamed and ran over to John. She was very scared and asked him if he was okay. +John was hurting but he managed to say, "It's okay. I'm alright." He quickly got up and tried to shake off the pain. + +But unfortunately, John hadn't been as lucky as he had thought. As the days went by, his leg started to hurt more and more. And soon after, he was diagnosed with a broken bone in his leg. Despite his best efforts, John's dream of climbing the tall tree had come to a bad end. +Jack had a doll he loved very much.

She frowned, and walked to her window. She opened it up and looked outside, where it was dark and cloudy. The girl felt so sad and asked her mom, + +"Mom, why isn't there any sunshine?" + +Her mom smiled and said, "Sometimes, things get broken and it rains. But the sun will be back soon and the sky will be clear again." + +The little girl was so happy and she cheered. Sure enough, the next morning, the sun shined again. The little girl smiled and ran outside, dancing and twirling in the sunshine. +Once upon a time, there was a family. Mommy, Daddy, Grandma, and little sister were all living in the same house.

Little Sister felt very special. She said, “I will be the boss here! Follow me!†Everyone laughed, but they followed her lead. + +They had lots of fun together at the park. Everyone agreed that it was one of the best days of their lives. When they were ready to go home, Little Sister said, “Family, let’s arrive home together!†+ +And they did. +Once upon a time, there was a happy little girl. She loved to run and play in the park. One day, when she was playing, she slipped and fell. She was scared and started to cry. + +Then her mom came to her and said, "It's okay, honey. You're safe." The little girl hugged her mom and stopped crying. + +The little girl was determined to be more careful when she was running and playing. Every day, she tried hard to not slip again. + +One day, she was running and playing and didn't slip. She was so proud of herself. When her mom saw her, she smiled and said, “You did it! That was so happy!†The little girl was so proud and happy that she could stay safe while running and playing. +Once upon a time there was a little girl. She liked to go for a walk to explore her neighbourhood. + +On this day, she was walking when she saw a big hole in the ground. It looked so tidy! She wanted to know what was inside the hole. She bent down to have a closer look. + +Just then, her mum came out of the house and saw her. "What are you doing?" she said. + +The little girl said, "I'm looking at the hole, mummy. Can I go in and have a look?" + +Mummy smiled and said, "No, it's too dangerous, sweetheart. Let's go home and make some dinner!" + +The little girl was feeling disappointed, but then she remembered that dinner sounded like a good idea. So she said goodbye to the tidy hole and walked home with her mummy. +Harry was feeling really tired and his nose felt funny. He asked his mom if he could take a nap. His mom said, "You don't look good. Let me see your forehead." She put the smelly thermometer on Harry's head. The thermometer said the word "fever". Harry's mom said, "I'm sorry, but you can't go out and play today. You need to rest." + +Harry was very sad. He wanted to go outside and play with his friends, but he knew better than to ignore his mom. He curled up in bed and quieted down. + +As the day passed, Harry's fever got worse and worse. He started to feel warm and sweaty all over. His mom reminded him to ignore his friends begging him to come out and play. + +By nightfall, Harry was feeling very sick and wished he had heeded his mother's advice. His mom called the doctor, who said that Harry had a virus and he needed to rest in bed until he was better. He had to ignore all of his friends' invitations to come out and play. + +It took a few days and plenty of rest, but Harry eventually felt better. His mom was so relieved that she took him out for ice cream to celebrate. Harry was so glad he listened to his mom and took care of himself - it taught him an important lesson to always ignore any urge to ignore her advice. +Once upon a time, there were two friends named Lucy and Jack. They liked playing together every day. + +One day, the two friends were walking in the woods when Lucy stumbled on a root. She got scared and started to cry. Jack came to her and said "It's ok Lucy! It was just a little stumble". + +Jack held her hand and they continued walking. Then they both saw a huge tree with many flowers. Jack said "Let's take some flowers and make a wish!" Lucy smiled and agreed. + +They each picked their favorite flower and made their wishes. Jack wished for a new pet and Lucy wished for a sweet dream. + +The two friends ran away and soon Lucy started to feel a little sour. Jack said "You should have a nap, come on let's find a place for you to sleep". + +So they found a cozy spot and Lucy laid down on the grass. In no time she was fast asleep and had the sweetest dreams. When she woke up she was feeling much better. + +The two friends hugged each other and laughed. They were glad that they had such a fun day together. +Once upon a time, there was a playful bunny. He was hopping around in the meadow. All of a sudden, he saw a spade lying on the ground. He was very curious and walked over to it. He reached out to pick it up, but as soon as he grasped it, he started to scream! + +The bunny was so scared that he ran away as fast as he could. After a while, he came back to the spade and sniffed it. A mouse was standing next to the spade and asked, "What's wrong?" + +The bunny replied, "I thought it was a monster!" The mouse then laughed and said, "It's just a spade, nothing to be scared of!" + +The bunny felt much better then, and the two of them decided to play with the spade. From then on, the bunny was no longer scared of the spade and even used it to help him dig little holes to explore. +Mia was excited to visit the beach with her mom and dad.

She smiled and thought about how much fun she had had that day. +Once upon a time there was a boy called Jake.

It was a fancy feather, sparkling in the sun! + +Jake was so happy, he couldn't believe his luck. He couldn't wait to take it home and show it to his mum. As he held it up to the sky, a voice broke the silence. + +"Well, hello there!" +It was a huge eagle who had been watching him the whole time. + +"Whatcha got there?" the eagle asked. + +"It's a fancy feather!" Jake said proudly. + +The eagle smiled and with a friendly nod said, "Well, keep collecting Jake. You never know what you'll find in the jungle!" +Timmy felt happy when he saw the playground. He loved swings and his mom said he could play on this one. + +Timmy smiled as he sat down on the swing. He pushed off with his feet, and let the swing take him higher and higher. + +"Higher mommy! Higher!", Timmy shouted. + +His mom laughed. "I'm pushing as high as I can, Timmy. Look at that nice hole over there. Can you jump over it? Be careful, okay?" + +Timmy jumped out of the swing and ran over to the hole. He carefully looked in the hole, but couldn't see anything. + +"Jump over the hole!" Timmy said, "I can do it! + +His mom smiled. "I'm sure you can, Timmy. That looks like a nice hole. Go on, jump over it." + +Timmy gulped, then jumped over the hole. He felt very proud and happy. + +"Good job, Timmy!" His mom said. "Let's swing one more time before we go home, ok?" + +"Yes!" Timmy said.

The people that lived here built it a long time ago." + +The two of them went inside and Jack started exploring. In one part of the castle, he saw an old wooden door. He walked up to it, put his hand on the handle and tried to open it. But the door wouldn't budge. + +Suddenly, Jack's father said, "Jack, sometimes it's best not to look where you can't go." + +Jack was confused, so his father explained, "This castle is very old and it belongs to people of the past. We are here only to look and admire, not to go places we're not supposed to." + +Jack understood and nodded his head.

When he got closer he could see it was an animal. He realized it was a squirrel. + +Pete was worried that the squirrel might be lost, so he picked it up and looked around.

He started digging holes and planting seeds. + +The rabbit's friend the fox saw him and asked, "What are you doing rabbit?" + +The rabbit replied, "I'm making it better. I'm improving the nature." + +The fox was impressed and said, "Wow, that's very wise of you rabbit! I'm sure the nature will look much nicer with your help." + +The rabbit smiled and continued planting. Soon, the nature was full of beautiful flowers and tall grass, and the rabbit was proud of his hard work. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Janey. Janey was very sad and started to cry. Her mom asked her, "Why are you weep, Janey?" Janey said, "I want beef for dinner." + +Her mom smiled and said, "Oh, is that it? I'm sorry I didn't realize that's what you wanted. I have some beef ready for you to eat." + +Janey wiped her tears away and said, "Yay! Thank you, mommy." + +Her mom said, "You're welcome, Janey. Now go and enjoy your dinner. + +Janey was so happy that she had beef for dinner. She ate it with a smile on her face, and was very happy and full. +Once there were two friends called Tim and Joe. They liked to play in the garden together. One day when they were playing, they saw a frog. It was a big, green frog and it was sitting in the sun. + +Tim said to Joe, "Hey, let's catch the frog!" But Joe said, "No, we can't. That's not nice." + +Tim said, "Come on, let's catch the frog!" But Joe said, "No, we can't. That's not serious." + +Then Tim said, "Look! The frog is starting to rot." Sure enough, the frog was slowly beginning to rot in the sun. + +Joe said, "We have to help the frog. Let's put it in a shady place so it will stay cool." + +So the two friends carefully moved the frog into the shade. They made sure it was in a cool, safe place. + +The frog was so happy. It was no longer in danger of rotting. Tim and Joe were happy too that they had saved the frog. +Once upon a time there was a little girl named Mary.

She didn't understand why they had come to the temple. + +Mary watched as her mum knelled down and waved her hands in front of her. She couldn't understand what her mum was doing. + +Suddenly, a kind voice said, "Come here, little girl. Don't be scared". + +It was the temple priest. He smiled at Mary and waved her close. + +"Do you know why we come to this temple?" He asked Mary kindly. + +Mary shook her head and the priest said, "It is to show respect to the god that lives inside this temple. And when we wave our hands like this, we show our respect". + +Mary smiled and waved her hands like her mum. She now felt a little bit more comfortable. +Once upon a time, there was a dog who lived with a family. The dog was very special to the family and they loved him very much.

They brought the leash, but the dog was so excited that it ran away and didn't come back. The family searched everywhere, but the dog was nowhere to be found. + +The family was very sad and they never found their beloved dog. The family never went back to the peaceful park, and they never went on walks together again. Everyone was very sad and no one ever applauded again. + +The end. +Once there was a boy named Max. He wanted to go to a fair but his mom was too busy to take him. So he decided to go on his own! He quickly got ready and rushed to the fair. + +When he arrived, it was quite different to what he was expecting. Instead of seeing happy people having fun, he saw a lot of trouble. Some people were shouting and there was a lot of running around. + +Max felt scared and he thought it was not a fair place to be. He needed to get away! He started to rush back home but on the way, he saw a policeman. The policeman asked Max what he was doing so far away from home. Max told the policeman the truth and the policeman kindly said he would take him back home. + +Once Max was home, his mom was so relieved and happy to see him safe.

One day, Hope wanted to play outside so she asked her mom for permission to go. +Hope's mom smiled and said, "Yes, but don't stay away too long. Be back before lunch!" +Hope was so excited. She grabbed her favourite toy and ran outside into the garden. +When she got there, Hope saw a pretty butterfly. Hope said hello to the butterfly, but it didn’t reply. She tried again, "Hello, my name is Hope. What's yours?" +The butterfly flew away but left something behind. It was a saw! Hope was surprised, but she thought it was cool and decided to take it home to show her mum. She put the saw in her pocket and ran back into the house. +When Hope’s mom saw the saw she was surprised. She said, "Oh wow! That's so pretty! Where did you get it?" +Hope explained, "I got it in the garden from a butterfly! I said hello but it didn't reply." +Hope's mom smiled and said "Well, I'm glad you got it. Now let's have lunch!" +Hope and her mom went to the kitchen and had a big lunch. After that they had lots of fun playing with the saw. +Hope was very happy. +Mia and her mum were going to the park. They were walking down the street when Mia saw a yellow taxi. + +Mia: "Mummy, what’s that?" + +Mum: "That's a taxi. It takes people from one place to another." + +Mia: "Can we stay in a taxi?" + +Mum: "No, darling. We take a taxi for a short ride, but we can't stay in it." + +Mia was disappointed, but she soon remembered something fun. + +Mia: "Mummy, can we create a pretend taxi? I'll stay inside and you can drive with your feet!" + +Mum: "That's a creative idea! Let's give it a try!" + +Mia stayed inside the pretend taxi while her mum pushed the car. They had so much fun going down the street. Mia laughed and thanked her mum for the creative pretend taxi. +Mira was out with her mom and they went to the grocery. Mira was very excited. Mira saw many different things, like colorful fruits and vegetables. But one thing she saw was very naughty. It was candy! + +Mira's mom saw it and called her. "Mira, you can't have the candy. It's naughty. Come over here". + +But Mira didn't want to listen. She was too busy looking and she was about to take some more candy when her mom called one more time. + +"MIRAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" + +Mira knew it was time to go and she quickly followed her mom away from the candy. As they left, her mom told her: "Remember, Mira, candy can be very naughty". + +Mira nodded and followed her mom away from the naughty candy. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Mark.

After a while, they had collected a basket full of them. + +Mark looked at the healthy radishes and said, "I think I'm going to make some radish salad for dinner tonight!" + +His friends smiled and agreed. Everyone was happy to join in and help Mark. +Mum was out in the garden, pointing at the flower bed. +Today was a beautiful sunny day and the flowers were a vivid shade of pink. + +Mum smiled and said to her 3 year-old daughter, “Look at the beautiful flowers! They’re so pretty and bright!†+ +The little girl smiled and said, “They’re crazy!†+ +Mum laughed and said, “Yes, they are very crazy today!†+ +The little girl then started to point at a bee buzzing around the flowers.

It is too far away!†But Rabbit paid no attention and kept swimming. + +The rabbit swam farther and farther away, until the bird could not see Rabbit any more. The bird sighed and thought, 'Rabbit will never make it'. + +But Rabbit kept swimming and swimming. Eventually, Rabbit reached the land. Rabbit thought the journey was easy. + +But the journey was much too hard for Rabbit. Rabbit never made it back home and was lost forever. + +The moral of the story is to always listen to your friends. Don't take on too much that is too hard for you. If you do, bad things might happen. +Once there was a boy. He was riding his motorcycle when suddenly he saw a man arrive. The man had a big smile on his face. + +The boy asked, "What is your name?" + +The man said, "I'm Alan.

Then, she added some pepper for taste. + +Suddenly, Sue sneezed! + +Sue got pepper in her eyes and she started to suffer. Tears filled her eyes as she ran to her mom for help. + +Mom quickly grabbed a cloth, got some water and cleaned Sue's face.

She never added too much pepper ever again. + +The end. +Mama was in the kitchen carrying a big pot. She filled it with oil and it was clear. Mama carried the pot to the stove and turned on the fire.

He saw his friend Stan and he asked Stan for help. Stan said, "Hi John. Why are you holding that peach?" John replied, "I want to fold it, but I don't know how." Stan smiled.

He smiled and said, "Thank you!" Stan replied, "No problem, that's what friends are for!" +One day, there was a mother and her three-year-old daughter in the park. The mother was very careful not to let her daughter stray too far away but the little girl was curious and wanted to explore. + +The little girl saw a harmless-looking bug and she got very excited to show it to her mother. She ran over to the bug and tried to pick it up. Suddenly, the bug screamed and scared the little girl. + +The girl started to cry and the mother ran over to her. She comforted her and hugged her tight. She said, “It’s okay, sweetheart. That bug just screamed because it was scared. Remember, never pick up an animal if it’s scared.†+ +The little girl nodded and the mother wiped her tears. Then, they continued exploring the park together. + +The moral of the story is that it’s important to be gentle and understanding with animals and be careful not to scare them. +Once upon a time there was an ugly woman who lived by a lake in a small wooden house. Every day she would go to the lake and sit by the shore. She was very lonely, as she had no friends. + +One day, while she was sitting there, a frog suddenly hopped up to her. He said in a croaky voice, "Hello, Woman! Will you be my friend?" + +The woman was surprised, but she said, "Yes, I will be your friend." + +From that day onward, the woman and the frog would meet every day and talk about things. The frog taught the woman about the secrets of the lake, and the woman taught the frog about the secrets of life. + +Every day the woman learned something new from her friend the frog, and everyday the frog grew braver and bolder. At last, the woman asked the frog why he was not afraid of her, even though she was so ugly. + +The frog said, "You are not ugly to me. You are my friend, and that is all that matters. We are all different on the outside, but on the inside, we are all the same." + +This is a lesson that we should all learn: beauty comes from within, and we should always be friends with those who are different from us. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl who wanted to go for a pick. She was an adventurous little girl, so she decided to get started. + +The girl was walking through the forest, when she noticed a bee stuck in a tree. She saw the bee and thought to herself, “I have to rescue him!†She looked for a way to help the bee, but the tree was tall and it seemed almost impossible to reach the bee. + +The girl kept looking around, and she noticed a branch that was pretty easy to reach. She quickly grabbed it, and used it to reach out to the bee. She carefully picked him up, and he thanked her for saving him. + +The little girl smiled and said, “It’s easy to help someone else. Just always be kind and you can make the world a better place.†+ +The girl went on to finish her pick in the forest, and the bee went on to make his nest. The girl was glad that she had rescued the bee and realized that it was easy to make a difference. +Once upon a time, there was a Bear and a Mouse who were good friends. One day, the Bear offered to take Mouse for a ride in the woods. Mouse was so excited and agreed. Bear picked up Mouse and put him on his paw. + +The two friends walked and walked until they reached the forest. Bear looked around and said, “It doesn’t look fit for us.†But Mouse said he wanted to explore. + +So they both went into the deep, dark woods. They walked and walked until they heard a loud growl. It was a big, mean Tiger! They both froze when they saw it. Bear saw how scared Mouse was and said, “I will offer myself to the Tiger so you can run away.†+ +Mouse was very thankful and ran away as fast as he could. But it was too late and the Tiger chased after him and caught him. Poor Mouse! The Tiger had a good dinner that day, thanks to Bear’s brave offer. +Mandy was walking her dog, Jack, when suddenly he started to limp. She looked down to see that his foot was bleeding. A piece of glass had cut into his heel. She was very worried and started to cry. + +Jack, who was a very smart dog, saw how worried Mandy was, so he tried his best to comfort her. He started to lick her face and wagged his tail. Then he lay down next to her, as if to say he was fine. + +Mandy was very pleased with Jack's efforts and felt much better, so she dried her eyes and took Jack to the vet. + +The vet examined Jack's foot and said, "It's a deep cut and will take time to heal. Have you been looking after him?" + +Mandy replied, "Yes, he's always been so good, but we haven't always had enough money to keep him healthy. We've been very poor." + +The vet smiled and said, "Let's take care of that right away. I'll give him something to help the healing process and I have some medicine to help with his foot pain, too." + +Mandy thanked the vet and took Jack home. She knew he was on the mend, because he was starting to walk again, and although still a bit slow, he was soon trotting around like before. + +Once back at home, Mandy comforted Jack, stroking his fur +Once upon a time there was a boy. He was so happy playing with his friends every day. One day he saw something special. It was a prize! The boy was so excited but he was also a bit fearful because he had never seen a prize before. + +The boy thought about what the prize might be for a long time. He was so curious that he decided to take a closer look. He walked closer to it and saw that it was a big bowl of yummy food! + +The boy was so happy that he dropped to the ground and started to eat the food straight away. + +He ate and ate and it was the most delicious thing he ever tasted. He couldn't believe how good it was. + +Soon the boy finished eating the prize. After that he smiled and ran off to play with his friends. He was so happy and he never felt fearful again when eating the prize. +One day, Max was playing outside when he observed a hurt bird. It had injured its wing and he could see a bandage hiding underneath its feathers. He decided to take the bird home and help it get better, so he went back inside to get a box. + +Max put the injured bird in the box and found it was empty. He asked his mom, “Do you have something I can put in the box?†His mom smiled and said, “Yes! I’ll get some leaves and grass that the bird can use for a bed.†+ +Max carefully added the leaves and grass inside the box. He watched as the bird happily hopped around in its new bed. Just then, they heard loud meowing coming from outside. Max’s mom said, “That must be our cat!†But when they went outside, they saw a huge brown bear instead! + +The bear was growling and looking at the box that Max was carrying. Max got scared and put down the box between himself and the bear. He shouted loudly, “GO AWAY!†The bear roared back and started coming closer. + +Max’s mom quickly grabbed a large stick and circled around the box. She shouted, “Go away now or else!†The bear looked surprised and slowly slinked away. Max and his mom looked at each other and laughed in relief. +Maggie and Joe were walking along the path together when Maggie saw a beautiful flower. She wanted to pick it, so she asked Joe for his help. Joe was feeling generous, so he said yes. He turned to Maggie and said, “Let’s go pick the flower together. Then you can have it!†They walked over to the flower, and Joe held out his hand to pass it to Maggie. She thanked him and gave him a big hug, then she held the flower up proudly. + +Another day, they went on a walk again. This time Maggie found a pretty rock. She asked Joe the same question: “Can you help me turn this rock into a special rock?†Again, Joe was very generous. He said yes and helped Maggie pick up the rock. Then they worked together to turn it into a pretty piece of art. + +When they were done, Maggie and Joe stood back to admire their work.

They were best friends forever and ever! +Once upon a time, there was a yellow sheep called Timmy. Timmy was very special because its wool was very soft and fluffy. Timmy was so proud of its wool that it used to show it off to the other animals. + +One day, Timmy was happily walking in the field when a passing animal shouted, "Look! It's Timmy the yellow sheep!" Timmy was so happy that it started to dance and stir its wool. Suddenly, a big gust of wind came and blew its wool away! + +Timmy was devastated. It ran after the wool, yelling "Come back! Please come back!" But the wool had already been blown far away. + +Finally, Timmy came to a stop under a tree. It asked an old owl, "Please help me! I want my wool back". The owl said kindly, "Don't worry. I can help you. I fly high up in the sky and can see everything. So, I'll look for your wool!" + +The owl flew high in the sky and was soon back with Timmy's yellow wool.

She was very sad. +So the hippo decided to find someone to play with in the nearby forest. As she entered the forest she heard a loud roar. + +She ran to find out where the sound was coming from. She came across a lion on the other side of a clearing. The lion was roaring very loudly. + +The hippo was a bit scared but she walked closer to the lion and said, "Hi! Do you want to play?" +The lion looked at the hippo and in a very rude voice said "No, go away!" + +The hippo was very sad and she slowly walked away from the lion. She realized that friends don't always have to be loud and rude like the lion. She slowly walked back home, happier and ready to find some real friends. +Once upon a time there was a little girl called Clara. She loved to play games with her friends and especially loved riding her scooter. One day, Clara decided to hide her scooter in the garden.

Then she patted the ground until it was nice and flat. + +The next day, Clara asked her friend Jenny to come and play. As they went to the garden to find the scooter, Clara asked, "Can you help me find the scooter I hide in the garden?" Jenny said, "Yes, of course!" + +They searched until finally, Jenny found it!

That seems naughty!" + +Tom smiled and said, "I'm just having fun! It's just like painting, but using ink instead of paint." He kept going, drawing spots and writing his name with the ink. + +Glynn wasn't sure if it was naughty or nice. But in the end, he couldn't help but laugh at the silly pictures Tom had made. +Once upon a time, there was a boy who liked playing outside all day. One night, he was feeling a bit scared and he asked his mom for help. + +"Mom," he said, "I'm having bad dreams at night. They seem like nightmares." + +Mom smiled and hugged him. "It's okay sweetheart," she said, "I will help you feel better." + +The next night, Mom came into the boy's bedroom after he had fallen asleep.

He wanted to cut the twig. He said, “That twig looks useful. If we cut it into two, I can use one piece of the twig and you can use the other piece.†+ +But his friend was still not sure. He said, “We should not cut the twig. It’s not ours. What if somebody else wants to use it?†+ +Jack thought for a moment. Suddenly, he had an idea! He said, “Let’s cut the twig into two pieces and give one piece to someone else! That way, everyone can use the twig!†+ +His friend thought it was a great idea.
