She is gifted with love." +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the sun. They have a big yard with a swing, a slide and a sandbox. They also have a dog named Spot. Spot is very silly. He likes to chase his own tail and bark at birds. + +One day, Anna and Ben are playing in the sandbox. They are making a castle with sand and shells. Spot is watching them and wagging his tail. He wants to join the fun. + +"Can Spot help us?" Ben asks Anna. + +"Okay, but he has to be careful. He can't knock down our castle," Anna says. + +They let Spot dig in the sand with his paws. He is very happy. He finds a bone and buries it in the sand. Then he digs it up again and buries it somewhere else. + +"Spot, you are so silly!" Anna says. "You already have a bone. Why do you hide it and find it again?" + +Spot barks and licks Anna's face. He does not understand. He thinks it is a game. + +"Look, Anna, look!" Ben says. "The leaves are falling from the trees. They are red and yellow and brown. They are pretty." + +Anna looks up and sees the leaves. They are dancing in the wind. She remembers something. + +"Ben, do you know what this means?" she asks. + +"What does it mean?" Ben asks. + +"It means it is a new season. It is not summer anymore. It is fall. Mommy told us about the seasons. Remember?" + +"Oh, yes, I remember. Mommy said the seasons change because the earth goes around the sun. And she said fall is when we can pick apples and pumpkins and make pies. Yum!" + +"Yum!" Anna agrees. "Let's go ask Mommy if we can go to the farm and pick some apples and pumpkins. Maybe Spot can come too. He likes to run in the fields." + +"Okay, let's go!" Ben says. They leave the sandbox and run to the house. Spot follows them, wagging his tail. He is happy. He likes the new season too. He likes to play with Anna and Ben. They are his best friends. +Tim and Anna are friends who like to play in the park. They have a game where they hide and seek. Tim has a whistle that he blows when he finds Anna. Anna has a red hat that she wears to help Tim notice her. + +One day, they are playing hide and seek in the park. Tim counts to ten and then looks for Anna. He walks around the trees and the swings, but he does not see her. He does not hear her whistle either. He starts to feel worried. Where is Anna? + +He runs to the slide, where they sometimes hide. He sees a red hat on the ground. He picks it up and calls, "Anna, Anna, where are you?" He hears a voice from inside the slide. "Tim, I'm here! I'm stuck!" + +Tim looks inside the slide and sees Anna. She is holding her whistle, but it is broken. She tried to blow it, but it made no sound. She says, "I'm sorry, Tim. My whistle is bad. I couldn't tell you where I am." + +Tim says, "It's okay, Anna. I'm here to help you. You are my friend. You are dependable. You always play with me and share with me. I noticed your hat and I found you. Let me pull you out." + +Tim grabs Anna's hand and pulls her out of the slide. They hug and smile. They are happy to see each other. They decide to play a different game. They don't need a whistle or a hat. They just need each other. +Jill was a popular girl in her class. She had many friends who liked to play with her. She was good at singing, drawing and skipping. She also liked to kiss the boys on the cheek and make them blush. + +One day, Jill saw a new boy in her class. His name was Ben. He had curly hair, big eyes and a shy smile. Jill wanted to kiss him too, but he always ran away from her. Jill thought he was silly and tried harder to catch him. + +At recess, Jill had a plan. She asked her friends to help her. They made a march around the playground, holding hands and singing a song. Jill was at the front of the march, and she saw Ben sitting on a bench. She ran towards him and tried to kiss him on the cheek. + +But Ben did not like Jill's plan. He did not want to be kissed by a girl he did not know. He felt scared and angry. He pushed Jill away and shouted, "Stop it! Leave me alone!" He ran to the teacher and told her what Jill did. + +The teacher was not happy with Jill. She said, "Jill, that was not nice. You should not kiss someone without their permission. You should respect their feelings and boundaries. You need to say sorry to Ben and sit in the corner for the rest of recess." + +Jill felt ashamed and sad. She realized she had been rude and mean to Ben. She said sorry to him and went to the corner. She lost her friends and her popularity. She learned a lesson: kissing is not a game, and you should not force someone to do something they do not want to do. +Lily and Ben were playing with dolls in the living room. Lily had a pink doll with long hair and a dress. Ben had a blue doll with a hat and a car. They were pretending to be friends and go to the park. + +"Hello, pink doll. Do you want to ride in my car?" Ben asked. + +"Yes, please. Thank you, blue doll. You are very nice," Lily said. + +They put the dolls in the car and pushed it around the carpet. They made noises like honk and vroom. They had fun. + +But then, Ben saw a toy truck on the shelf. He wanted to play with it. He left the car and the doll and grabbed the truck. He started to roll it on the floor. + +"Hey, what are you doing? You can't leave me here!" Lily said. She was angry. She wanted to keep playing with the car and the doll. + +"Sorry, Lily. I like the truck better. It is bigger and faster," Ben said. + +"No, you can't do that. That is not fair. You have to share," Lily said. + +She got up and ran to Ben. She tried to take the truck from him. They pulled and tugged. They shouted and cried. + +"Let go, Lily. It is mine now," Ben said. + +"No, it is not. It is ours. Give it back," Lily said. + +They fought harder. Then, Lily slapped Ben on the face. Ben felt a sting and a tear. He slapped Lily back. Lily felt a pain and a shock. She slapped Ben again. Ben slapped Lily again. They slapped each other until they were red and sore. + +"Stop, stop, stop!" Mom said. She heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw Lily and Ben slapping each other. She was angry and sad. She grabbed them and separated them. + +"What are you doing? Why are you slapping each other? That is not nice. That is not how you play. That is how you hurt," Mom said. + +She looked at their faces. They had marks and bruises. They had blood and tears. They looked at Mom. They felt sorry and scared. + +"Mom, we are sorry. We were playing with the dolls and the car. Then, Ben wanted the truck. I wanted the car. We fought. We slapped. We are sorry," Lily said. + +"Mom, we are sorry. We were playing with the car and the dolls. Then, I wanted the truck. Lily wanted the car. We fought. We slapped. We are sorry," Ben said. + +Mom sighed. She hugged them and kissed them. She said, "I love you, Lily. I love you, Ben. But you have to be careful. You have to be kind. You have to share. You can't slap. Slapping is bad. Slapping can hurt. Slapping can make you go to the hospital. Do you want to go to the hospital?" + +Lily and Ben shook their heads. They said, "No, Mom. We don't want to go to the hospital. We want to stay with you. We want to be good. We want to be friends." + +Mom smiled. She said, "That's good. That's what I want too. Now, let's go to the kitchen. I have some ice and some bandages. I will make your faces feel better. Then, we can have some cookies and some milk. And then, we can play again. But this time, we will play nicely. OK?" + +Lily and Ben nodded. They said, "OK, Mom. Thank you, Mom. We love you, Mom." + +They held Mom's hands and followed her to the kitchen. They left the dolls and the car and the truck in the living room. They didn't want to slap anymore. They wanted to hug. +Jenny was very happy. She was going to the palace with her mom and dad. They were going to meet the queen. Jenny loved the queen. She had seen her on TV and in books. She wanted to say hello and give her a hug. + +They got to the palace and waited in a big room. There were many other people there. They all wore nice clothes and smiled. Jenny wore a pink dress and a bow in her hair. She felt like a princess. She held her mom's hand and looked around. + +Soon, a man came and said it was time to meet the queen. He led them to another room. There was a red carpet and a big chair. The queen was sitting on the chair. She wore a long dress and a shiny crown. She looked very pretty and kind. Jenny was excited. + +The man said their names and they walked up to the queen. Jenny's mom and dad bowed and said hello. The queen smiled and nodded. Then she looked at Jenny. Jenny smiled and said, "Hi, queen. I'm Jenny. I'm very happy to meet you. You are very pretty and nice. Can I give you a hug?" + +The queen was surprised. She was not used to children talking to her like that. She did not like hugs. She thought they were messy and rude. She frowned and said, "No, you can't. You are a very naughty girl. You should not talk to me like that. You should be quiet and respectful. Go away. You are not welcome here." + +Jenny was shocked. She did not understand. She had only wanted to be friendly. She felt sad and scared. She started to cry. Her mom and dad were also shocked. They tried to apologize and comfort Jenny. They said they were sorry and they loved her. They wanted to leave. + +But the queen was angry. She did not accept their apology. She said they had offended her. She said they had to be punished. She called her guards and told them to take them away. She said they had to go to the dungeon. She said they would never see the sun again. + +The guards grabbed Jenny and her mom and dad. They dragged them out of the room. They did not listen to their pleas and cries. They took them to a dark and cold place. They locked them in a cell. They left them alone. + +Jenny and her mom and dad hugged each other. They were very sad and afraid. They did not know what would happen to them. They wished they had never come to the palace. They wished they had never met the queen. They wished they had stayed home and had a delicious cake. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big box and some sticks. They made a castle and swords. They pretended to be knights and princesses. + +"Look, I have a sword!" Tom said. He waved his stick in the air. "I can fight the dragon!" + +"I have a sword too!" Lily said. She picked up another stick. "But I don't want to fight. I want to have a tea party." + +Tom frowned. He did not like tea parties. He wanted to have an adventure. He saw some dark clouds in the sky. He had an idea. + +"Let's go to the forest!" he said. "There is a dragon there. We can save the kingdom!" + +Lily shook her head. She did not like the forest. It was scary and dark. She wanted to stay in the garden. She saw some flowers and cups. She had another idea. + +"Let's have a tea party!" she said. "There are fairies here. We can be their friends!" + +Tom rolled his eyes. He did not like fairies. He thought they were silly and boring. He wanted to be brave and strong. He grabbed his sword and ran to the forest. + +"Come on, Lily!" he shouted. "Don't be foolish!" + +Lily sighed. She did not want to go. She put down her sword and picked up a cup. She poured some water and pretended to drink. + +"Cheers, fairies!" she said. "Don't be scared!" + +Tom reached the forest. He looked around. He did not see a dragon. He only saw trees and birds. He felt lonely and cold. He heard a loud noise. It was thunder. He saw a flash. It was lightning. He felt a drop. It was rain. + +"Oh no!" he said. "It is raining! I don't like rain. It is wet and cold. I want to go back!" + +He turned around and ran to the garden. He saw Lily. She was smiling and laughing. She had a hat and a coat. She did not mind the rain. She was having fun. + +"Hi, Tom!" she said. "Do you want to join the tea party?" + +Tom nodded. He felt silly and sorry. He dropped his sword and picked up a cup. He poured some water and pretended to drink. + +"Cheers, Lily!" he said. "Don't be angry!" + +Lily smiled. She was not angry. She was happy and kind. She hugged Tom and gave him a cookie. + +"I'm not angry, Tom!" she said. "You are my brother. I love you!" + +They both laughed and played. They forgot about the rain and the dragon. They were happy and safe. They were knights and princesses. They were friends. +Lily liked to wear her big sister's shoes. They were shiny and pretty and made her feel grown-up. But her big sister did not like it when Lily took her shoes. She said they were too big for Lily and Lily could fall and hurt herself. She also said Lily would make the shoes dirty and ruin them. + +One day, Lily saw her big sister's new shoes. They were red and sparkly and had a bow on them. Lily wanted to try them on. She waited until her big sister was out and then sneaked into her room. She put on the shoes and looked at herself in the mirror. She felt very happy and proud. + +She decided to go outside and show her friends her shoes. She walked down the stairs carefully, but the shoes were too big and loose. She tripped and fell. The shoes flew off her feet and landed on the street. A big car came and ran over the shoes. They were smashed and torn. + +Lily cried and cried. She was scared and sorry. She knew her big sister would be very angry and sad. She ran back to her room and hid under the bed. + +When her big sister came home, she saw her shoes on the street. She was shocked and furious. She knew Lily had taken them. She went to her room and found Lily under the bed. She yelled at Lily and said harsh words. She said Lily was naughty and selfish and stupid. She said Lily had to pay for the shoes and never touch her things again. + +Lily felt very bad and ashamed. She wished she had listened to her big sister and not taken her shoes. She learned that taking things that are not yours is wrong and can cause trouble and pain. She said sorry to her big sister and hugged her. She promised to be good and respectful from then on. She also promised to save her money and buy her big sister a new pair of shoes. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with many leaves. They want to climb the tree and see the sky. + +"Come on, Sue, let's go up the tree!" Tom says. + +"OK, Tom, but be careful!" Sue says. + +They climb the tree and find a branch to sit on. They look at the sky and the birds. They feel happy. + +But then, they hear a loud voice. It is the park keeper. He is angry. + +"Hey, you two, get down from the tree right now! You are not allowed to climb the trees in the park! You could fall and hurt yourself!" he shouts. + +Tom and Sue feel scared and uncomfortable. They do not want to make the park keeper angry. They do not want to fall and hurt themselves. They want to go home. + +"Sorry, sir, we did not know. We will get down right now," Tom says. + +They climb down the tree and run to the gate. They say goodbye to the park keeper and leave the park. + +On the way home, they talk about what happened. + +"Tom, I think we learned something today," Sue says. + +"What did we learn, Sue?" Tom asks. + +"We learned that climbing trees is fun, but also dangerous. We learned that we should listen to the rules and respect the people who take care of the park. We learned that we should be careful and not do things that could hurt us or others. We learned some wisdom," Sue says. + +"Yes, Sue, you are right. We learned some wisdom. And wisdom is good. It helps us to make good choices and be happy. Maybe next time, we can play something else in the park, like tag or hide and seek," Tom says. + +They smile and hug. They are still friends. They end their day with wisdom and happiness. +Tom and Amy were twins who liked to play in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food with pots and pans. One day, they saw a big knife on the counter. Tom wanted to touch it, but Amy said no. + +"It is sharp and can hurt you," Amy said. "Mom and Dad said we should not touch it." + +"But it looks fun," Tom said. "I want to cut something with it." + +He reached for the knife, but Amy pulled him back. + +"Please, Tom, listen to me," Amy said. "The knife is not a toy. It is dangerous." + +Tom did not listen. He pushed Amy away and grabbed the knife. He felt the blade and smiled. + +"See, it is not so bad," he said. "I can cut this apple with it." + +He put the apple on the cutting board and tried to cut it. But the knife was too big and heavy for him. He lost his balance and fell. The knife slipped from his hand and stabbed him in the chest. He screamed and dropped the apple. + +Amy heard his scream and ran to him. She saw the blood and the knife. She was scared and sad. + +"Tom, Tom, are you okay?" she cried. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to push you." + +But Tom did not answer. He did not move. He did not breathe. He was dead. + +Amy did not know what to do. She wanted to help him, but she did not know how. She wanted to call Mom and Dad, but she did not know where they were. She wanted to cry, but she had no tears. She just sat next to Tom and held his hand. She hoped he would wake up and play with her again. But he did not. He was dead. +Lily and Ben were very happy. They were going to the big water park with their mom and dad. They wanted to see the dolphins. They liked the dolphins. The dolphins were fit and fast and friendly. + +At the water park, they saw a sign that said: "Dolphin Show". They followed the sign and found a big pool with many seats around it. They sat down and waited for the show to start. They saw some people in blue suits. They were the dolphin trainers. + +One of the trainers spoke to the people. He said: "Hello, everyone. Welcome to the dolphin show. Today, we have a special surprise for you. One of our dolphins, Luna, is going to deliver a baby dolphin. You are very lucky to see this. Please be quiet and watch." + +Lily and Ben were very excited. They wanted to see the baby dolphin. They looked at the pool and saw Luna. She was swimming with another dolphin, Leo.

You have a beautiful baby dolphin. What are you going to name him?" He gave them a microphone. Luna and Leo took turns to say: "We are going to name him Max. He is our son. We love him very much." + +Lily and Ben smiled. They were happy for Luna and Leo and Max. They wanted to meet them and say hello. They hoped they could come back to the water park and see them again. They loved the dolphins. The dolphins were fit and fast and friendly. And now, they had a new family member. +Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll with long hair and a dress. Tom had a car with wheels and a horn. They were having fun, but they also wanted to make each other laugh. + +Lily had an idea. She took a ribbon from her doll's dress and sneaked behind Tom. She tried to tie the ribbon around Tom's car, but Tom saw her and turned around. + +"Hey, what are you doing?" Tom asked. + +"I want to make your car pretty," Lily said with a giggle. + +"No, you don't. You want to make it silly," Tom said. He grabbed the ribbon and pulled it away from Lily. He ran to the door and looked for a place to hide it. + +He saw a knob on the door that looked shiny and round. He thought it would be a good place to tie the ribbon. He wrapped the ribbon around the knob and made a knot. He smiled and said, "There, now the ribbon is safe." + +But he did not know that the knob was not just a knob. It was a bell that rang when someone opened the door. And he did not know that his grandma was coming to visit. His grandma was deaf and could not hear the bell. She only saw the door and the knob. + +She reached for the knob and pulled it. The door opened and the bell rang loudly. Tom and Lily heard the bell and looked at the door. They saw their grandma standing there with a surprised face. She saw the ribbon on the knob and the car in Tom's hand. She understood what happened and smiled. + +"Hello, my dears," she said. "What a nice welcome you have for me. Did you make this for me?" + +Tom and Lily felt ashamed. They realized they had been naughty and rude. They ran to their grandma and hugged her. + +"We're sorry, grandma," they said. "We were just playing. We didn't mean to make fun of you or your bell." + +"It's okay, my dears," grandma said. "I know you love me and I love you too. But next time, be careful with your toys and your ribbons. They are not for tying on knobs or cars. They are for making things beautiful and happy." + +Tom and Lily nodded. They learned their lesson. They untied the ribbon from the knob and gave it back to Lily. They also gave their toys to their grandma and asked her to play with them. They had fun together and made each other laugh. They were happy and grateful for their grandma and her bell. +Lila loved to dance. She liked to spin and jump and twirl. She felt happy when she moved her body to the music. Sometimes, she danced with her mom or dad or brother. Sometimes, she danced by herself. + +One day, she found a radio in the attic. It was old and dusty, but it still worked. She turned it on and heard a song. It was a slow and soft song, with a piano and a voice. Lila liked the song. She wanted to dance to it. + +She took the radio to her room and put it on the floor. She put on a dress and a scarf and pretended to be a princess. She danced around the room, graceful and gentle. She lifted her arms and swayed her hips. She felt like she was floating. + +She danced until the song ended. Then she heard a knock on the door. It was her mom. She came in and smiled. She said, "Lila, it's time for dinner. You need to settle down and wash your hands." + +Lila nodded. She turned off the radio and put it on her shelf. She hugged her mom and said, "Thank you for the radio, mom. I love it.

He runs to the rope and grabs it. + +"No, me first!" Mia says. She runs after him and pulls the rope. + +"Let go!" Ben says. He tries to swing, but Mia holds the rope. + +"No, you let go!" Mia says. She tries to pull the rope, but Ben holds it. + +They both pull and pull. The rope is not happy. It starts to make a bad sound. It is about to break. + +"Stop!" a voice says. It is Mom. She sees the children and the rope. She is worried. + +"Ben, Mia, yield the rope!" Mom says. "It is not safe. It can hurt you." + +Ben and Mia look at Mom. They look at the rope. They hear the bad sound. They are scared. + +They let go of the rope. They run to Mom. She hugs them. + +"Sorry, Mom," Ben says. + +"Sorry, Mom," Mia says. + +Mom smiles. She is glad they are okay. + +"It's okay," Mom says. "But next time, share the rope. And be careful." +Lila and Sam were friends who liked to play together. One day, they found a big box of crayons in Lila's room. They decided to make a picture with the crayons on a white paper. + +"Look, I can draw a yoga pose!" Lila said, as she bent her crayon to make a shape like a bridge. "Can you do it too?" + +Sam tried to copy Lila, but he was careless. He pressed his crayon too hard and it broke in half. "Oh no, my crayon is broken!" he cried. + +Lila felt sorry for Sam. She gave him another crayon from the box. "Here, you can have this one. It is blue, like the sky." + +Sam smiled and thanked Lila. He took the blue crayon and started to draw a cloud. But then, he noticed something strange. The crayon was soft and sticky in his hand. He looked at Lila's crayon and saw that it was also melting. + +"What is happening to our crayons?" Sam asked, confused. + +Lila looked around and saw that the sun was shining through the window. The sun was very hot and it made the crayons melt. "The sun is too hot for the crayons. We have to move them away from the window." she said. + +Lila and Sam quickly gathered the crayons and put them back in the box. They moved the box to a cooler place in the room. Then, they looked at their picture. It was a mess of melted colors and shapes. + +They laughed and shrugged. "It's okay, we can make another picture tomorrow." Lila said. + +"Or we can do some yoga instead." Sam suggested. + +They agreed and started to do some yoga poses on the floor. They had fun and forgot about the crayons. They were happy to be friends. +Lily is a girl who likes to have fun. She has a friend named Ben. Ben is a boy who likes to have fun too. They have many things in common.

They have a lot of fun looking at the animals and learning their names. + +Lily and Ben also see a big snake. The snake is very long and has a wide mouth. Lily and Ben are curious and want to see it closer. They go near the glass and look at the snake. The snake looks at them too.

They were thirsty and excited. They waved to the man and said thank you. + +They walked to a bench and sat down. They lifted their cups and took a big sip. But something was wrong. The lemonade was not sweet. It was sour. Very sour. They made funny faces and spit out the lemonade. + +"Yuck!" Tom said. "This is not good lemonade. This is bad lemonade." + +"Maybe the man made a mistake," Sam said. "Maybe he forgot to put sugar in it." + +They looked at the truck. The man was smiling. He was not sorry. He was happy. He had a big bag of coins. He had tricked them. He had given them sour lemonade on purpose. + +Tom and Sam felt angry and sad. They wanted their coins back. They wanted good lemonade. They wanted to teach the man a lesson. + +They had an idea. They picked up their cups and ran to the truck. They threw their sour lemonade at the man. The man was surprised. He got wet and sticky.

They had a big book with pictures of stars and planets. They learned the names of some of them. One night, they saw a bright light in the sky. It was a comet. A comet is a ball of ice and dust that goes around the sun very fast. Sometimes, it has a long tail of light behind it. + +"Wow, look at the comet!" Tim said. "It is so pretty!" + +"I want to see it closer!" Mia said. "Can we go to the moon and touch it?" + +Tim laughed. "No, we can't go to the moon. It is too far and too cold. And we can't touch the comet. It is too hot and too fast. We can only watch it from here." + +Mia was stubborn. She did not like Tim's answer. She wanted to see the comet closer. She tried to climb on the roof of the house. But Tim stopped her. + +"Mia, stop! It is dangerous to climb on the roof. You can fall and hurt yourself. And you still can't see the comet closer. It is too far away." + +Mia was sad. She did not want to hurt herself. But she still wanted to see the comet closer. She pouted and crossed her arms. + +Tim saw that Mia was sad.

But you know, guns are not good in real life. They can hurt people and animals. You should only use them for pretend, okay?" the lady says. + +Lily and Ben look at each other and then at the lady. They think about what she said. + +"Okay, we know. We only use them for pretend. We do not want to hurt anyone," Lily says. + +"That's good. I'm glad you have an opinion about guns. It is important to have an opinion and to be kind. Can I pet your dog?" Ben asks. + +The lady smiles and says, "Of course, you can. His name is Rex. He is very friendly. He likes children." + +Lily and Ben pet Rex and he wags his tail. They like the lady and her dog. They thank her and say goodbye. They go back to playing cowboys and robbers, but they remember what the lady said. They only use their guns for pretend. +Tom and Lily were playing in the park when they saw a man with a big brush and a lot of colors. He was a painter. He was painting a picture of the trees and the sky on a big white wall. + +"Wow, look at that!" Tom said. "He is making a beautiful picture!" + +Lily nodded. She liked the colors. She wanted to see them closer. She ran towards the wall, but Tom stopped her. + +"Wait, Lily, don't go there!" he said. "The painter might not like it. He might get angry." + +Lily looked at the painter. He did not seem angry. He seemed happy. He was humming a song and smiling. He saw Lily and Tom and waved at them. + +"Hello, little ones!" he said. "Do you like my picture?" + +"Yes, we do!" Lily said. "It is very pretty!" + +"Thank you!" the painter said. "Do you want to help me?" + +Lily and Tom looked at each other. They nodded. They wanted to help. + +The painter gave them each a small brush and a cup of color. He showed them where to paint on the wall. He said they could paint anything they wanted. + +Lily and Tom were very excited. They started to paint flowers and birds and stars. They had a lot of fun. The wall became more and more colorful. + +The painter was very pleased. He said they were very good painters. He said they made his picture more beautiful. + +Lily and Tom were very happy. They thanked the painter. They gave him a hug. They said they liked painting. + +The painter hugged them back. He said he liked painting too. He said he liked painting with them. + +They looked at the wall. It was an enormous picture. It was a picture of the park and the trees and the sky. And it was a picture of Lily and Tom and the painter. And it was a picture of friendship. +Lila liked to make dolls with her mom. They used cloth, buttons, and thread to give them faces and clothes. Lila learned how to use a needle and make a stitch. She was very proud of her dolls. + +One day, Lila wanted to show her dolls to her friend Ben. She put them in a basket and went to his house. She knocked on the door and said, "Hi, Ben. Do you want to see my dolls?" + +Ben opened the door and looked at the basket. He saw the dolls and made a face. He said, "Those are not dolls. Those are rags. They are ugly and old. I don't want to see them." + +Lila felt sad and angry. She said, "They are not rags. They are dolls. They are pretty and new. I made them with my mom. You are mean and rude. I don't want to be your friend." + +She turned around and ran away. She carried her basket and her dolls. She cried and hugged them. She said, "Don't worry, dolls. I love you. You are not ugly and old. You are unusual and special. You are my friends." +Sam and Ben were brothers who liked to play at the beach. They had a big boat with a big anchor. The anchor was heavy and shiny and had a rope. Sam and Ben's dad told them to never touch the anchor or the rope. He said it was dangerous and they could get hurt. + +One day, Sam and Ben were playing at the beach while their dad was fishing. Sam saw a big fish in the water and wanted to catch it. He had an idea. He ran to the boat and grabbed the rope of the anchor. He thought he could use the anchor as a hook and catch the fish. He did not tell Ben what he was doing. + +Ben saw Sam running to the boat and followed him. He saw Sam throwing the anchor into the water. He was scared. He knew Sam was not obedient and did not listen to their dad. He tried to stop Sam, but it was too late. The anchor sank into the water and pulled the rope with it. The rope was tied to the boat. The boat started to move and drag Sam and Ben with it. + +Sam and Ben screamed for help. They were in trouble. They wished they had listened to their dad. Their dad heard them and saw what happened. He was angry and worried. He quickly got his own boat and went to rescue them. He pulled them out of the water and took them back to the shore. He was glad they were safe, but he also scolded them for being disobedient and foolish. He told them to never touch the anchor or the rope again. Sam and Ben said they were sorry and hugged their dad. They learned their lesson. They never played with the anchor or the rope again. +Lily was a spoiled girl who always wanted more toys. She had many dolls, cars, books and puzzles, but she was never happy. She cried and screamed when her mom and dad said no to her. + +One night, Lily saw a bright star in the sky. She pointed at it and said, "I want that star! Give me that star!" + +Her mom and dad looked at her and shook their heads. "You can't have that star, Lily. That star is very far away and belongs to everyone. You can only look at it and make a wish." + +Lily did not listen. She stamped her feet and said, "No! I want that star! It is mine! Mine! Mine!" + +Her mom and dad sighed and took her to her room. They tucked her in and said, "Good night, Lily. We love you, but you need to learn to share and be grateful. Maybe tomorrow you will be nicer." + +Lily did not say good night. She turned away and closed her eyes. She was still angry and wanted the star. + +But as she fell asleep, she had a dream. She dreamed that she flew to the star and grabbed it. She was very happy and said, "Ha! I have the star! It is mine! Mine! Mine!" + +But then, the star spoke to her. It said, "Hello, Lily. Do you know my name?" + +Lily was surprised and scared. She said, "No, I don't know your name. Why do you talk?" + +The star said, "I talk because I am alive. I have feelings and thoughts, just like you. My name is Stella, and I have many friends in the sky. We shine and dance and sing together. We make people happy and hopeful. But you took me away from them. You are very selfish and spoiled, Lily. You don't care about anyone but yourself." + +Lily felt ashamed and sad. She said, "I'm sorry, Stella. I didn't know you were alive. I didn't know you had friends. I was wrong to take you. Please forgive me." + +Stella said, "I forgive you, Lily. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will be kind and generous from now on. You have to share and be grateful for what you have. You have to love and respect others, even if they are different from you. Can you do that, Lily?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Stella. I can do that. I will do that. Thank you for teaching me a lesson." + +Stella smiled and said, "You're welcome, Lily. Now, let me go back to the sky. You can still see me and wish on me, but you can't have me. I belong to everyone." + +Lily let go of Stella and watched her fly away. She felt a warm glow in her heart. She said, "Goodbye, Stella. I will remember you and your words. You are a very nice star." + +Stella winked at her and said, "Goodbye, Lily. You are a very brave girl. I hope you have sweet dreams." + +Lily woke up the next morning and felt different. She felt happy and calm. She hugged her mom and dad and said, "Good morning. I love you. Can we go outside and play?" + +Her mom and dad smiled and said, "Of course, Lily. We love you too. You are a very sweet girl." + +Lily smiled and said, "Thank you. Can I tell you a story?" + +Her mom and dad said, "Sure, Lily. What is your story?" + +Lily said, "It is a story about a star. A star named Stella." +Lily loved to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had a beautiful dress with flowers and ribbons. Lily liked to comb Anna's hair and make her look pretty. + +One day, Lily decided to have a tea party with Anna and her other dolls. She set up a small table and chairs in her room. She brought some cups and plates and a teapot from her toy box. She filled the teapot with water and pretended it was tea. She put some cookies on a plate and pretended they were cakes. + +She invited Anna and her other dolls to sit at the table. She said, "Hello, my friends. Welcome to my tea party. I will serve you some tea and cakes. Please, sit down and enjoy." She poured some water into the cups and gave them to the dolls. She also gave them some cookies. She said, "Here you go, Anna. You have the most beautiful dress. You are my best friend." + +Anna and the other dolls did not say anything. They just smiled and nodded. Lily did not mind. She liked to talk to them and pretend they were listening. She felt happy and proud of her tea party. She said, "Thank you for coming to my tea party. I hope you like the tea and cakes. They are very yummy. You are all very nice and polite." + +She ate some cookies and drank some water. She pretended it was the best tea and cakes ever. She had a lot of fun with her dolls. She loved to play with them and make them happy. She thought they loved her too. +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red alarm. It made loud noises and flashed lights when they pressed a button. They liked to pretend it was a fire truck or a police car. + +One day, they were playing with the alarm when they heard their mom call them for lunch. Ben wanted to take the alarm with him, but Lily said no. She said it was her turn to play with it. Ben got angry and tried to grab the alarm from Lily. Lily held on tight and shouted, "Stop it, Ben! It's mine!" + +Ben was so mad that he bit Lily on the arm. Lily screamed and dropped the alarm. She ran to their mom and showed her the bite mark. Their mom was very upset and scolded Ben. She said, "Ben, you should never bite your sister! That hurts a lot and it's very naughty. You have to say sorry to Lily and share your toys." + +Ben felt bad and said sorry to Lily. He gave her a hug and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I love you. Can we play with the alarm together?" Lily nodded and smiled. She said, "I love you too, Ben. Yes, we can play with the alarm together. But we have to eat lunch first." + +Their mom was happy to see them make up. She said, "That's very good, Ben and Lily. I'm proud of you. Now, let's go eat some yummy sandwiches and fruit. And then you can play with your incredible alarm again." Ben and Lily agreed and followed their mom to the kitchen. They were hungry and excited to play some more. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to jog in the park. They jog with their dogs, Spot and Rex. They have fun and laugh. + +One day, the sun is very hot. Lily and Ben are thirsty. They see a fountain in the park. They want to drink some water. + +"Let's go to the fountain, Ben!" Lily says. + +"OK, Lily!" Ben says. + +They jog to the fountain with their dogs. But when they get there, they see a big sign. The sign says: "No dogs allowed. No drinking water. Fountain is broken." + +Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They do not like the sign. They do not like the fountain. They do not like the park. + +"Who made this sign? Who broke the fountain? This is not fair!" Lily says. + +"I don't know, Lily. This is not lovely. This is bad!" Ben says. + +They hear a loud noise. They look up. They see a man with a big hose. The man is spraying water everywhere. He is wetting the flowers, the trees, the grass, and the sign. He is also wetting Lily and Ben and their dogs. + +"Hey, stop that! You are making us wet! You are wasting water!" Lily says. + +"Sorry, kids. I have to water the plants. The fountain is broken. You can't drink from it. And you can't bring your dogs here. They are not allowed. Go away!" the man says. + +Lily and Ben are very wet and very mad. They do not like the man. They do not like the hose. They do not like the water. + +They jog away from the fountain with their dogs. They are not happy. They are not having fun. They are not laughing. They go home. They have a bad day. The end. +Anna loved to play with her toy trumpet. She liked to make loud noises and pretend she was in a band. She also loved to feed her stuffed animals. She had a bear, a rabbit, a cat and a dog. She gave them water, carrots, milk and bones. + +One day, Anna wanted to show her trumpet to her friend Ben. She invited him to her house after school. She was very excited. She ran to her room and got her trumpet and her animals. She put them on the table in the living room. + +"Look, Ben, this is my trumpet. It is very fun. Do you want to try?" she asked. + +Ben nodded. He took the trumpet and blew into it. But nothing happened. He blew harder and harder, but still no sound. He looked confused. + +Anna giggled. "You have to press the buttons, silly. Like this." She took the trumpet and pressed the buttons. She made a loud noise. + +Ben smiled. He tried again. He pressed the buttons and blew into the trumpet. He made a noise too. But it was not a nice noise. It was a very bad noise. It sounded like a fart. + +Anna and Ben stopped. They looked at each other. They heard a voice. + +"What is that awful noise?" It was Anna's mom. She came into the living room. She saw Anna and Ben with the trumpet. She saw the animals on the table. + +"Anna, what are you doing? You are not supposed to feed your animals on the table. And you are not supposed to play with your trumpet inside. It is too loud. It disturbs the neighbors. And it smells bad too. Did you fart?" + +Anna felt embarrassed. She did not fart. It was the trumpet. But she did not know how to explain. She looked at Ben. He looked embarrassed too. He did not fart either. He did not know how to explain either. + +They both said sorry. They put the trumpet and the animals away. They went to play outside. They decided to play something else. They did not play with the trumpet anymore. It was too embarrassing. +Tim and Lily were brother and sister. They liked to play with their toys, but they did not like to eat their food. Their mom always gave them good food, like apples, cheese, and bread. But sometimes, she also gave them bad food, like cauliflower. Cauliflower was a gray and lumpy thing that smelled funny. + +One day, mom made a big pot of soup for dinner. She put some carrots, potatoes, and chicken in the soup. She also put some cauliflower in the soup. She hoped that Tim and Lily would not notice the cauliflower and eat it. + +She served the soup in two bowls and gave them to Tim and Lily. She said, "Eat your soup, my loves. It is hot and yummy. It will make you strong and healthy." + +Tim and Lily looked at their soup. They saw the carrots, potatoes, and chicken. They also saw the cauliflower. They did not want to eat the cauliflower. They decided to ignore the cauliflower and only eat the other things. + +They started to eat their soup. They picked out the carrots, potatoes, and chicken with their spoons. They left the cauliflower in the bowl. They thought mom would not see the cauliflower. + +But mom saw the cauliflower. She was not happy. She said, "Tim and Lily, why are you not eating your cauliflower? It is part of the soup. It is good for you. You have to eat it." + +Tim and Lily did not listen to mom. They ignored mom and kept eating the other things. They thought mom would give up and let them be. + +But mom did not give up. She was very angry. She said, "Tim and Lily, you are being very naughty. You are wasting food. You are not listening to me. You have to eat your cauliflower or you will get no dessert." + +Tim and Lily still did not listen to mom. They ignored mom and finished their soup. They left the cauliflower in the bowl. They thought mom would forget and give them dessert. + +But mom did not forget. She was very sad. She said, "Tim and Lily, you have disappointed me. You have not eaten your cauliflower. You have not obeyed me. You have no dessert. You have to go to bed right now." + +Tim and Lily realized that they had made a big mistake. They wanted dessert. They wanted to stay up. They wanted mom to be happy. They looked at their cauliflower. They wished they had eaten it. But it was too late. Mom took away their bowls and sent them to bed. They had no dessert. They had no fun. They had a bad ending. +Ben and Mia wanted to play in the park, but it was a gloomy day. The sky was gray and the wind was cold. They put on their coats and hats and went outside with their mom. + +"Can we go on the swings, mom?" Ben asked. + +"Sure, but be careful. The ground is wet and slippery," mom said. + +They ran to the swings and took turns pushing each other. They laughed and shouted as they swung high and low. Mia liked to swing faster than Ben. She felt like a bird in the air. + +But then, she swung too fast and lost her grip. She flew off the swing and landed on the grass. She felt a sharp pain in her knee and started to cry. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" she sobbed. + +Mom and Ben ran to her and helped her up. Mom checked her knee and saw a small cut and some blood. + +"Oh, Mia, you stumbled and hurt yourself. It's okay, it's just a scratch. Let me clean it and put a band-aid on it," mom said. + +She took out a tissue and a band-aid from her purse and gently wiped the wound and covered it. She hugged Mia and kissed her cheek. + +"There, all better. How do you feel?" mom asked. + +Mia sniffed and smiled a little. + +"I feel better, mom. Thank you. And thank you, Ben, for being nice to me," she said. + +Ben hugged his sister and said, "You're welcome, Mia. I'm sorry you stumbled. Do you want to play some more?" + +Mia nodded and said, "Yes, but not on the swings. Let's go on the slide. It's safer and more fun." + +They held hands and walked to the slide. Mom followed them and smiled. She was glad they were happy again. They played on the slide until it was time to go home. They had a good day at the park, even if it was gloomy. +Anna was sick. She had a cough and a fever. Mommy gave her a pill to make her feel better. Anna did not like the pill. It was bitter and big. She spit it out. + +"Anna, you have to take the pill. It will help you get well," Mommy said. + +"But I don't want to. It is yucky," Anna said. + +Mommy had an idea. She got Anna's favorite toy, a pink pony. She put the pill inside the pony's mouth. + +"Look, Anna. Your pony is sick too. She needs a pill. Can you help her?" Mommy said. + +Anna loved her pony. She did not want her to be sick. She took the pony and opened its mouth. She saw the pill. + +"Poor pony. I will help you," Anna said. She took the pill out of the pony's mouth and put it in her own. She swallowed it with some water. + +"Good girl, Anna. You are very brave. And so is your pony. Now you both will feel fine soon," Mommy said. + +Anna smiled. She hugged her pony. She felt a little better. She wanted to play with her pony. + +"Mommy, can I ride my pony?" Anna asked. + +"Sure, Anna. But only in the house. You still need to rest," Mommy said. + +Anna nodded. She got on her pony and rode around the living room. She pretended she was in a fairy land. She was happy. She forgot about her cough and her fever. She and her pony were fine. +Lily and Ben were playing a game. They had to look at each other and not blink. Whoever blinked first would lose. Lily wanted to win the prize. The prize was a big red balloon. + +They stared and stared. Their eyes felt dry and tired. But they did not blink. They wanted to be the best. They tried to make each other laugh. They made funny faces and noises. But they did not blink. + +"Ha ha, you look silly!" Lily said. + +"So do you!" Ben said. + +They giggled and giggled. But they did not blink. + +Then, a loud noise made them jump. It was Mom. She came into the room with a cake. It had candles and sprinkles. It was Lily's birthday. + +"Happy birthday, Lily!" Mom said. "Time to blow out the candles!" + +Lily and Ben blinked at the same time. They looked at each other and smiled. They did not care who won.

"You are very kind and sweet!" + +Lily and Ben hugged each other. They were proud of their game. They were proud of their friendship. They took the balloon and the cake. They had a lot of fun. +One day, a little boy named Tom went to the park with his mom. He saw a big train with a lot of smoke coming out of it. He wanted to go closer and see the train. He asked his mom if he could go. + +His mom said, "Yes, you can go, but be careful. The smoke is not good for you. It is called steam. It is very hot and can hurt you. Stay away from the steam." + +Tom nodded and ran to the train. He saw a man in a blue hat and a red shirt. He was the driver of the train. He smiled at Tom and said, "Hello, little boy. Do you like my train?" + +Tom said, "Yes, I do. It is very big and fast. Can I see inside?" + +The driver said, "Sure, you can. But first, let me tell you something. Do you know why my train makes steam?" + +Tom said, "No, I don't. Why?" + +The driver said, "My train runs on water and coal. The water boils and makes steam. The steam pushes the wheels and makes the train move. But steam is not good for the air and the plants and the animals. It makes them sick. That is why I am trying to find a better way to run my train. A way that is healthy for everyone." + +Tom said, "Wow, that is very smart. How can you do that?" + +The driver said, "I have an idea. I want to use the sun and the wind to make electricity. Electricity can also make the train move. And it does not make steam or smoke. It is clean and healthy. But I need help to make it work. Do you want to help me?" + +Tom said, "Yes, I do. I want to help you make a healthy train. What can I do?" + +The driver said, "You can be my friend and learn with me. You can also tell your mom and your friends about my idea. Maybe they can help too. Together, we can make a difference." + +Tom said, "Okay, I will. Thank you for letting me see your train. You are very nice. I am happy to meet you." + +The driver said, "You are very welcome. You are very curious and kind. I am happy to meet you too." + +Tom and the driver became friends and worked on the healthy train project. They also had fun and learned a lot.

How can you move and talk?" + +The robot says, "I have a battery inside me. It gives me power. I also have a chip in my head. It helps me learn and speak. I can move my arms, legs, and head.

He looks sad and hungry. + +"Hi, doggy!" Anna says. "Do you want to play with us?" + +The dog wags his tail and comes closer. He sniffs the wagon and licks a cookie. + +"Can we keep him, Ben?" Anna asks. "He is so furry and nice." + +Ben thinks for a moment. He likes the dog, too. But he knows his mom does not like dogs. + +"I don't know, Anna," he says. "Mom says dogs are messy and loud.

She would lift the cake and eat it all by herself. + +She went to the table and reached for the cake. It was heavy. She tried to lift it with both hands. She lifted it a little bit, but then it slipped. The cake fell on the floor. It made a loud noise. It broke into pieces. It made a big mess. + +Mom and Dad heard the noise. They woke up from their nap. They ran to the kitchen. They saw Sara and the cake. They were not happy. They were angry. They scolded Sara. They told her she was naughty. They told her she had to clean up the mess. They told her she could not have any cake. + +Sara was very sad. She wished she had not lifted the cake. She wished she had waited for Mom and Dad. She wished she had taken a nap too. She learned a lesson. She would not be greedy again. She would be good. +Ben and Lily were brother and sister. They liked to play in the park with their ball. One day, they saw a big tree with a swing. They wanted to try the swing, but it was too high for them. + +"Can you help me, Ben?" Lily asked. "I want to swing on the tree." + +"OK, Lily. I will be helpful," Ben said. He lifted Lily up and put her on the swing. He pushed her gently and she smiled. + +"Thank you, Ben. This is fun!" Lily said. + +Ben wanted to swing too, but he was too small to reach the swing by himself. He looked around and saw a branch. He thought he could hang from the branch and swing like Lily. + +He climbed the tree and grabbed the branch. He let go of the tree and tried to swing, but the branch was weak. It broke and Ben fell to the ground. He hit his head and cried. + +Lily heard Ben cry and stopped swinging. She saw Ben on the ground and ran to him. She was scared and sad. + +"Ben, are you OK? What happened?" Lily asked. + +"I wanted to swing too, but the branch broke. It hurts, Lily. It hurts a lot," Ben said. + +Lily hugged Ben and tried to comfort him. She saw blood on his head and clothes. She did not know what to do. She wished their mom and dad were here. They were not at home. They were at work. + +She looked for help, but there was no one in the park. She felt alone and helpless. She cried with Ben and hoped someone would come soon. But no one came. They stayed on the ground until it was dark and cold. They were hungry and thirsty and afraid. They missed their home and their parents. They wished they never went to the park. They wished they never saw the swing. They wished they never tried to hang from the branch. They wished they were happy and safe. But they were not. They were hurt and lost. And they did not know if they would ever see their home and their parents again. +Lily was a princess who liked to play in the mud. She made mud pies and mud castles and mud animals. She did not like to wash. She said washing was boring and cold. + +One day, a prince came to visit her palace. He was huge and handsome and wore a shiny crown. He wanted to see Lily and play with her. But when he saw her, he was shocked. She was dirty and smelly and covered in mud. + +"Hello, princess," he said. "Do you want to play with me?" + +Lily smiled and nodded. She liked the prince. He looked nice and fun. + +"OK, but first you have to wash," he said. "You cannot play with me if you are so muddy. Come, I will show you the bath." + +Lily frowned and shook her head. She did not want to wash. She wanted to play in the mud. + +"No, thank you," she said. "I like mud. Mud is fun. Washing is not fun." + +The prince sighed and shook his head. He did not like mud. Mud was dirty and gross. Washing was good and clean. + +"Please, princess," he said. "Washing is not so bad. It is warm and bubbly and makes you smell nice. I will wash with you and we can play with the soap and the toys. Then we can play something else. Please, give it a try." + +Lily looked at the prince. He looked sad and hopeful. She liked him and wanted to make him happy. She thought for a moment. Maybe washing was not so bad. Maybe it was fun. Maybe she could try it. + +"OK, prince," she said. "I will wash with you. But only for a little bit. Then we can play in the mud again." + +The prince smiled and clapped his hands. He took Lily by the hand and led her to the bath. He filled it with water and soap and bubbles. He gave her a towel and a sponge and a duck. He washed her hair and her face and her hands. He made her laugh and giggle and splash. + +Lily was surprised. She liked washing. It was warm and bubbly and made her smell nice. She liked the soap and the toys. She liked the prince.

Daisy had long hair, a pink dress, and a smile. Lily took Daisy everywhere with her. + +One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She saw a boy playing with a truck. He looked lonely, so Lily decided to introduce Daisy to him. She walked over to him and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. This is Daisy. She's my best friend. Do you want to play with us?" + +The boy looked at Lily and Daisy. He frowned and said, "No, I don't. Dolls are for babies. Trucks are for big kids. You and your doll are weak and silly. Go away and leave me alone." + +Lily felt sad and angry. She loved Daisy and she wanted to make a new friend. She said, "That's not nice. Dolls are not for babies. They are for anyone who likes them. You are mean and rude. You don't know how to share and have fun." + +The boy snorted and said, "I don't care. I don't need you or your doll. You are a waste of time. Go away and play with your baby toys." + +Lily was about to cry, but then she saw another girl coming to the park. She had a doll too, and she looked friendly. Lily smiled and said, "Come on, Daisy. Let's go and meet her. Maybe she will be our new friend. We don't need that boy. He's a waste of space." She ran to the girl and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. This is Daisy. She's my best friend. Do you want to play with us?" + +The girl smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Anna. This is Lucy. She's my best friend. Yes, I want to play with you. Your doll is very pretty. Can I see her?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Sure, you can. Can I see your doll too?" + +Anna nodded and said, "Of course, you can. Let's sit on the bench and talk." + +Lily and Anna sat on the bench and played with their dolls. They talked and laughed and had a lot of fun. They became good friends and forgot about the boy and his truck. They were happy and proud of their dolls. They were not weak and silly. They were strong and smart. +Tom and Lily were going to have a picnic with their mom and dad. They packed some bread, cheese, fruit and juice in a big basket. They also brought a ball, a kite and a book. They were very happy and excited. + +They drove to a big park with many trees and flowers. They found a nice spot under a big oak tree. They spread a blanket on the grass and put the basket on it. They ate some of the food and drank some of the juice. They said, "This is yummy!" + +Then they decided to play with the ball and the kite. Tom threw the ball to Lily and she caught it. They laughed and ran around. Mom and dad watched them and smiled. Then Lily saw a kite flying in the sky. She said, "Look, a kite! Can we fly our kite too?" + +Mom said, "Sure, let's fly our kite. It's a windy day, perfect for kites." She took the kite out of the basket and gave it to Tom. Tom held the kite and ran with it. The kite lifted up in the air. Tom felt the string pulling. He said, "Wow, this is fun!" + +Lily wanted to try too. She said, "Can I hold the kite, Tom?" Tom said, "Okay, but be careful. Don't let go of the string." He gave the string to Lily and she held it tightly. She felt the kite dancing in the wind. She said, "This is fun too!" + +But then she saw a butterfly flying near the kite. She was curious about the butterfly. She wanted to see it closer. She forgot about the kite and let go of the string. The kite flew away with the wind. Lily said, "Oh no, the kite!" + +Tom, mom and dad saw what happened. They said, "Oh no, the kite!" They ran after the kite, hoping to catch it. But the kite was too fast and too high. It disappeared behind the trees. They said, "Bye bye, kite!" + +Lily felt sad and sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I didn't mean to release the kite. I was curious about the butterfly." Tom said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm not mad at you. It was an accident. Maybe we can find another kite someday." He hugged her and she hugged him back. + +Mom and dad said, "Don't worry, kids. It's not your fault. The kite had a good flight. Maybe it will make someone else happy. We still have our ball and our book. Let's go back to our picnic and enjoy the rest of the day." They walked back to their blanket and their basket. They said, "We love you, kids." They kissed them and they kissed them back. They said, "We love you, mom and dad." They had a good picnic and a good day. +Once there was a girl named Jane. She was 3 years old and had golden curls. One day, she asked her mom if she could put on her pretty dress.

But Gertie said, "Let's explore more!" + +Max and Gertie found a barn. There was a bowl with apples in it. Gertie said, "Max, let's take one of these apples and eat it. We will be less hungry".

Daisy smiled and said, “You’re welcome! It was fun!†+ +They hugged, then went back to the sand and played with the now clean shell.

One day, he hopped up to a magazine that was lying on the ground. He poked it with his furry foot and it felt hard. He couldn't help but to pick it up and look at it. + +Suddenly, he heard a noise. He was so startled that he hopped away. It was only a bird, but the little bunny was very scared. He hopped around, looking for a place to hide. + +He saw a bush and dashed inside. He was still a little bit shook up, but he felt better when he saw a pile of magazines inside the bush. He started playing with them, flipping through the pages and tossing them in the air. + +But then he heard another noise. This time it was bigger. He peeked through the bush and noticed a dog coming closer. He was really scared and he ducked down, not wanting to be disturbed. The dog stopped and sniffed the bush and then moved on. + +The little bunny was very relieved and went back to playing with the magazines. Suddenly, he had an idea. He gathered all the magazines and hopped back to his house. He stacked them up and with a big smile, he said "This will make a hard surprise for mommy!" +There was a tall, happy boy.

Maybe when you are a bit older you can play it." + +Jack was very sad, but he knew his mom was right. He said goodbye to the piano and went off to play somewhere else.

Whenever it looked like it might rain, Sue and Chris opened the umbrella and held it over the statue. + +The moral of the story is that it’s important to take care of things, even if we don’t own them. We should always look out for one another, just like Sue and Chris did in the park. +Once there was a seed. It was small and brown and it was in the ground. One day, it started to grow.

Jack was just about to grab it when they heard a voice. + +"What do you think you're doing?!" + +It was the park ranger. He was a big, strong man and he was looking at them with a very angry face. + +The park ranger told them they had to leave. He said that climbing ladders was not allowed in the park. + +Jack and Sarah were really scared and quickly backed away. The park ranger watched them go, shaking his head. + +And Jack and Sarah never climbed another ladder in the park again! +Once upon a time there was a little girl called Sarah. She was three years old. One day Sarah was outside playing in the sun when suddenly the wind started to blow. It blew her hat away and she started to cry. + +Her mum came outside and saw her crying. She asked Sarah, "What's wrong?" + +Sarah said, "The wind took my hat!" + +Her mum hugged her and said, "Don't worry sweetheart, I'll help you find it!" + +The wind was strong but Sarah and her mum started looking. After a while they found the hat and they hugged. Sarah said, "Thank you mummy, the wind was bad but now I'm happy again!" + +Her mum smiled and said, "I'm glad I could help, let's go inside now and have some cake!" + +Sarah smiled and the two of them went inside for some sweet cake. The end. +Once upon a time there was a squirrel named Sandy who was a very wise animal. He lived in a cozy nest in a big tree near the edge of a park. Each morning Sandy would go to the park, mail his friends and listen to their stories and adventures. + +One day while Sandy was in the park, he noticed something strange. A graceful crane was playing tag with the other animals. She fluttered her wings and hop across the grass using her long legs. Even Sandy was impressed. + +Every day the crane stayed in the park longer and longer. Sandy watched as the crane made more and more friends. Soon it was clear that the crane had become the heart of the park. + +One day Sandy noticed the crane was sad and asked her why she was so glum. The crane told Sandy that even though she had a lot of friends, she still felt lonely and couldn't figure out why. + +Sandy realized that even though the crane had made a lot of new friends she didn't have any wisdom which comes from having a family and friends you can rely on. Sandy shared his wisdom with the crane and soon the crane realized that she was never alone. + +The moral of the story is that wisdom is like mail, it can be shared with others no matter where they are. People with wise hearts can gracefully make a home out of anywhere they go. +Once upon a time there was a bunny that loved to hop around in the forest. He wore a big, thick hat and everyone said it looked quite funny. + +One day, the bunny went to a place he had never been before and he hopped across a bridge to explore. But when he got to the other side, he saw something shiny and he wanted to get it. He hopped closer but the shiny thing turned out to be a pond and it was so thick and murky. + +The bunny's hat got stuck and he couldn't hop away. He tried and tried but he couldn't get free. Finally, he called out for help. + +“Who can help me?†he said. + +Just then, a friendly small frog came to his rescue. The frog hopped over the pond and grabbed the bunny's hat with his strong, long tongue. + +The bunny hopped away with his hat, feeling relieved. + +The moral of the story is that it's important to think before you act. Even if something looks shiny from far away, it could be something you can't hop away from. And no matter what, friends can always help us get through a tough situation! +Once upon a time, there were two rocks. They were very different, one was smooth and the other was rough. Every day, the smooth rock would look at the rough rock and think of all the adventures they could have. She wanted to go see the world, but was worried she was not strong enough. + +One day, the smooth rock called out to the rough rock: "Let's go see the world!". But the rough rock said: "No. I am too scared to go. I don't want to get hurt". + +The smooth rock felt so sorry for her friend. So, it decided to tell her a secret. + +"You don't have to be scared. Just remember that every adventure comes to an end and your journey will finish. Even if you get a few bumps and bruises, nothing lasts forever." + +The rough rock was so happy to hear this and agreed to go on an adventure. The two rocks traveled to different lands and enjoyed the journey together. In the end, despite a few bumps and bruises, they were very happy. + +The moral of the story is that when we face something new, it can be exciting and a bit worrying. But if we stay brave and determined, we can always finish our journey and come back home again. +Once upon a time there was a little girl named Bobbie. She was three years old and loved to poke things. + +One day, she was poking a print on the wall. Her mom noticed and said, "Bobbie, what are you doing?" + +Bobbie replied, "I'm poking the print, Mommy. It looks so cool." + +Her mom smiled and said, "That's nice, sweetie. But poking the print isn't very fair. I want you to find something else to do, ok?" + +Bobbie nodded and went off to look for something else to poke. She finally found a fair toy that she could poke. She was so happy that she jumped up and down, giggling. + +The end. +Once there was a little boy named Tim. He loved to shoot with his toy gun. He used it to shoot at targets, trees and clouds. His mum always told him to shoot safely and with care. + +One day, Tim went to the park to shoot. He was very excited to let his toy gun go. But when he arrived, he saw a dream floating in the sky. It was a little dream with a shiny tail. + +Tim looked up and said," I want to shoot my gun at it". His mum replied,"No, you can't shoot your gun at it, it is just a dream". + +Tim wanted to try so he said,"Please, can I just shoot it one time? I promise I will shoot it very carefully. + +Mum said,"Alright, but only one shot and show me you are careful". + +Tim was very careful when he shot his gun. The dream sparkled, as if it were happy to be shot at. Then, it flew away. + +Tim was very happy. He had shot at a dream. He said,"Mummy, I'm so happy. That was so fun!" + +Mum smiled and said,"I'm glad you enjoyed it, now let's go home". + +The little boy went home with a big smile, content that he had had fun shooting at his dream. +Billy and his mom were in the kitchen.

She started to fold the towels, but then the mop fell off the shelf. + +Billy got angry. He kicked the mop and yelled, "You always make me do everything!" His mom looked really sad and told him to go to his room. + +Billy felt bad, but he was still mad. He went and sat in his room, feeling angry and sad. He never got the chance to say sorry to his mom. +John was feeling very nervous. He had a spoon in his hand, and he was about to do something he'd never done before. +John's mum explained, 'You have to be brave, John. It won't be easy.' +But John was scared. He didn't understand what he was meant to do. +John's mum sighed. She tried to explain again, 'John, you have to put the spoon in your mouth. Just do it.' +John shook his head. He didn't want to. +John's mum was getting frustrated. 'John, you have to do it. It's important.' +But John still didn't understand. He dropped the spoon, and started to cry. +John's mum said sadly. 'I'm sorry, John. I wish you could understand, but it's too late now.' +Once upon a time, a little boy named Billy was being very naughty. He was running around the house, jumping on the sofa and spilling his toys everywhere. + +His mother said to him, "Billy, you must be a good boy and not be naughty anymore." But Billy continued to misbehave. + +Then his daddy stepped in. He wanted to provide a lesson to Billy so he took him to the kitchen. + +"Let's have a look at the tap, Billy," said Daddy. + +Billy looked at the tap. + +"What do you think happens if the tap is left running all day?" Daddy asked. + +"The water will keep going and it will overflow," Billy replied. + +Daddy smiled. "That's right, Billy. We must always be careful with things and not waste them. So you must understand that being naughty is wrong and that we must be good to others too." + +Billy nodded and promised to be good from then on. Daddy smiled and gave him a big hug, happy to provide a moral lesson to his son. +It was a warm day and Mandy decided to go to the beach. She picked up her bucket and shovel and started walking. When she reached the beach, she saw lots of colorful reef. She was so excited! + +Mandy got her bucket and shovel and started playing on the shore. She tried to build a sandcastle but the sand was too wet. Soon, the waves started to come closer and she had to move away. + +Mandy started walking further down the beach and then she found a perfect spot. She smiled and started digging again. She tried to make a big hole and to collect some of the colourful reef. Suddenly, she heard a voice. + +"What are you doing?" said the voice. + +Mandy looked up and saw an old man. She smiled and said, "I am trying to collect some reef for my bucket." + +The old man nodded. "Ah. You are doing great! Let me help you," he said. + +Mandy was very thankful and the two of them spent the rest of the day collecting reef and talking about the warm day. Mandy was very happy and thanked the man again. +Once upon a time, there was a three year old boy named Ted. Ted loved to play outside and ask lots of questions. One day, he wanted to learn more about the world around him. + +So, Ted's mom decided to show him a microscope. When Ted saw it, he was so excited. He looked through the microscope and could not believe his eyes. + +Mom: "Do you see how tiny the thing inside the microscope is? It's amazing, isn't it?" + +Ted: "Yes, I can see it! What is it?" + +Mom: "It's a tiny drop of water." + +Ted: "What does it do?" + +Mom: "It can soak up the sun and give plants energy!" + +Ted: "That's cool!" + +Ted was so interested in the world around him. He was amazed by simple things like a drop of water! His mom watched with a serious face, but she was very happy too. +Once upon a time, there lived a little girl named Anne.

But she was so nervous! She was scared that she wouldn't do it as well as she did in school. Her mum saw her struggling and said, "Be brave Anne, you can do it. I know it looks big, but just use your nose and keep trying". + +Anne decided to take her mum's advice and she bravely started writing on the paper. She wrote the letters carefully, never stopping until it was completed. + +When she was done, Anne was so proud. She had done it all by herself, which made her smile wider than ever! + +Anne's mum gave her a big hug and said, "You are so courageous, Anne. You learned that you can always be brave enough to try something new if you want something badly." + +Anne smiled and said, "Yes, I did!"

The melon felt weak and Jack knew he had to find a way to get back in. + +He searched all around but there was no way back in. He sat down and looked at the melon, feeling sad that he couldn't get back in. Suddenly, Jack heard a voice. "Use the melon," it said. + +Jack wasn't sure what to do, but he knew the voice was right. He took the weak melon and threw it in the air. The melon suddenly grew strong and powerful and flew over the gate and opened it from the other side. Jack was relieved and excited and hurried through the opened gate. + +Jack couldn't believe it! The melon had saved him and gave him access to the park. He smiled back at the melon and thanked it for its help. Finally, Jack was back in the park to explore and have a good time. +Once upon a time, there was a nice little bird named Phil.
