Why is the wheat so important?" + +The cow says "Moo". She is wise. She knows many things. She says "The wheat is the farmer's food. He plants it and waters it and cuts it.

They thank the cow. They say "Moo". They learn a lesson. They do not roll in the wheat again. They find other ways to have fun. They are happy. The farmer is happy. The cow is happy.

Tom said. + +"Maybe we can get some clay from the truck and make more things!" Lily said. + +They waited for the truck to stop at the red light. Then they climbed over the fence and ran to the truck. They reached for the clay, but they did not know that the clay was hot and sticky. It burned their hands and stuck to their fingers. + +"Ow!" Tom and Lily said. "The clay is hot! It hurts!" + +They dropped the clay and ran back to the fence. They cried and rubbed their hands. They wished they had not touched the clay. + +"Let's go back to our clay!" Tom said. + +"Yes, let's go back to our clay!" Lily said. + +They ran back to the grass and picked up their clay snake and bird. They hugged them and felt better.

She reached for it and pulled it out of the bin. + +Max saw Lily holding the shiny thing. He did not like it. He smelled something bad and heard something ticking. He knew it was not a ball. It was a bomb. Max tried to warn Lily. He meowed and scratched and bit her hand. He wanted her to drop the bomb and run away. But Lily did not understand. She thought Max was being mean and naughty. She got angry and pushed him away. She said, "No, Max! This is mine! Go away!" + +Max did not go away. He loved Lily and wanted to save her. He jumped on the bomb and tried to take it from her. Lily and Max struggled and fought. The bomb was getting ready to explode. Lily and Max did not know. They heard a loud noise and saw a bright flash. Then everything went dark. + +The bomb blew up and hurt Lily and Max. They were not alive anymore. The bin was on fire and the garden was ruined. The people in the house heard the noise and came outside. They saw what happened and cried. They wished they had locked the bin and kept Lily and Max inside. They were very sad and sorry. They had lost their little girl and their harmless cat. +Lily likes to splash in the bath. She has a yellow duck and a blue boat. She makes the duck swim and the boat sail. She laughs and sings. + +But then she sees a big spider on the wall. She is scared of spiders. She screams and drops the duck and the boat. The water splashes on her face and in her eye.

He liked to show his drawings to his mom and dad, who always praised him and gave him hugs. + +One day, Sam wanted to draw a lion. He had seen a lion in a book and thought it was very big and strong. He took a yellow crayon and a brown crayon and started to draw the lion's mane, nose, eyes, and mouth.

He did not look nice. + +"Can I have a turn?" Anna asked politely. + +"No, go away. This is my swing. You are too little," the big boy said rudely. + +Anna felt sad and angry. She wanted to swing, but the big boy was mean. She looked at her mom, but her mom was busy with Ben. She did not see what was happening. + +Anna decided to wait for the big boy to get tired.

She liked to dig, roll and splash in the brown, wet dirt. She did not like to wash. She hated the water, the soap and the towel. She always tried to run away when her owner, Tom, called her for a bath. + +One day, Tom bought a new collar for Bella. It was red and shiny, with a little bell on it. He put it on Bella and said, "You look so pretty, Bella. But you have to keep your collar clean. If you get it dirty, I will have to wash it. And you know what that means." He winked at Bella and gave her a treat. Bella liked the treat. It was delicious. She liked the collar too. It made a nice sound when she moved. She did not want to wash it. + +Bella decided to be careful when she played in the mud. She tried to avoid the wettest and dirtiest spots. She did not dig, roll or splash as much as before. She wanted to keep her collar clean. But it was hard. She loved the mud too much. She could not resist it. One day, she saw a big, juicy worm in the ground. She forgot about her collar and dug it out. She was so happy. She ate the worm. It was delicious. But her collar was not. It was covered in mud. + +Tom saw Bella and shook his head. He said, "Oh, Bella. You are so dirty. And so is your collar. You know what that means." He picked up Bella and carried her to the bathroom. Bella whimpered. She did not want to wash. She wanted to keep her collar. But Tom took it off and put it in the sink. He said, "Don't worry, Bella. I will wash your collar and give it back to you. But first, you have to wash yourself." He turned on the water and poured some soap on Bella. Bella squealed. She hated to wash. She wished she had not eaten the worm. It was not worth it. +Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They had many toys, but they wanted the same one: a red car. They both grabbed the car and pulled hard. + +"Mine!" Lily shouted. + +"No, mine!" Tom shouted. + +They did not share. They did not listen. They made a lot of noise. + +Mom came into the living room. She was angry.

She said they could not play with any toys until they said sorry. + +Lily and Tom were sad. They did not like to punish. They did not like to sit on the couch. They did not like the silence. + +They looked at each other. They felt sorry. They wanted to play again. + +"Lily, I'm sorry. You can have the red car," Tom said. + +"Tom, I'm sorry.

They took turns. They had fun. +Anna was a little girl who liked to follow her big brother Sam. Sam was very smart and knew many things. He taught Anna how to read, how to draw, and how to play games. Anna wanted to be like Sam when she grew up. + +One day, Sam and Anna went to the park with their mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks and fish. Sam told Anna that ducks and fish were animals that lived in the water. He also told her that ducks could fly and fish could swim. Anna was amazed and wanted to learn more. + +"Can I touch the ducks and fish?" Anna asked Sam. + +"No, you can't," Sam said. "They are wild animals and they might be scared or hurt. You have to be gentle and respectful with them. That is wisdom." + +"What is wisdom?" Anna asked. + +"Wisdom is knowing what is right and what is wrong, and doing what is good and kind," Sam explained. "Wisdom helps you make good choices and be happy." + +Anna nodded and smiled. She understood what Sam meant. She wanted to have wisdom too. + +They watched the ducks and fish for a while. They saw them swim and splash and quack and nibble. They heard the birds sing and the wind blow. They felt the sun warm and the grass soft. They were peaceful and happy. + +"Peaceful means calm and quiet, right?" Anna asked Sam. + +"Yes, it does," Sam said. "Peaceful means you are not angry or afraid or sad. You are relaxed and content. Peaceful is a good feeling." + +Anna agreed. She felt peaceful too. She hugged Sam and thanked him for teaching her. + +"You're welcome, Anna," Sam said. "You are a good sister and a good learner. I'm proud of you." + +They held hands and walked back to their mom.

But there was one thing he did not like at the park: the clown. + +The clown was always there on Saturdays, making balloons and jokes for the kids. He wore a big red nose, a funny hat and a colorful suit. He had a loud voice and a big smile. But Sam thought he was rough and scary. He did not like how he popped the balloons, how he threw pies and how he chased the kids. He always hid behind his mom and dad when he saw the clown. + +One day, the clown saw Sam hiding and decided to scare him. He sneaked up behind him and shouted "Boo!" Sam was so scared that he screamed and ran away. He tripped on a rock and fell on the ground. He hurt his knee and started to cry. The clown felt bad and ran after him. He said he was sorry and gave him a balloon. He said he was just trying to be funny and make him laugh. He said he did not mean to be rough and scary. + +Sam looked at the clown and saw that he was not so bad. He saw that he had kind eyes and a gentle voice. He saw that he was just wearing a costume and playing a role. He saw that he was just a person who liked to make people happy. He stopped crying and took the balloon. He said he was sorry too and gave him a hug. He said he was just afraid and did not understand. He said he would try to be brave and laugh. + +The clown and Sam became friends. They played with the balloons, the pies and the jokes. They made each other laugh and smile. Sam learned that sometimes things are not what they seem. He learned that sometimes people are different but not bad. He learned that sometimes being scared is not a reason to run away. He learned that sometimes being brave is a reason to make friends. +Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to slide on the big slide. They go up the stairs and sit on the slide. They hold hands and say "Ready, set, go!" Then they slide down fast and laugh. + +They see a big shadow on the ground. It looks like a monster. They are scared. They look up and see a big tree. The sun is behind the tree. The tree makes the shadow. They are not scared anymore. They say "It is just a tree!" + +They are hungry. They go to the picnic table. Mom has made sandwiches for them.

He said to Lily and Ben, "I'm sorry, I was mean. Can I have one snack, please?" + +Lily and Ben looked at each other. They thought for a moment. Then they said, "OK, you can have one snack. But only one. And you have to be nice to us and share with others." + +The mean boy nodded. He said, "Thank you, I will. Can I have a cookie, please?" + +Lily and Ben gave him a cookie.

They saw a big hole in the ground. Tom wanted to look inside the hole. He asked his mom, "Can I go to the hole, mom?" + +Mom said, "No, Tom. The hole is not safe. You might fall in or get hurt.

She asked a man nearby to help her pull Tom out of the hole. + +The man helped mom and Tom got out of the hole. He was hurt and dirty and scared. Mom hugged him and said, "Tom, you are very naughty. You did not listen to me. You could have been very hurt. You should never go to a hole like that again. Do you understand?" + +Tom nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was curious. I wanted to see what was in the hole. I did not know it was dangerous." + +Mom said, "I know, Tom. But curiosity is not always good. Sometimes it can lead you to trouble. You should always listen to me and stay safe. That is how you learn and grow." + +Tom said, "I will, mom. I love you." + +Mom said, "I love you too, Tom. Now let's go home and clean you up." + +Tom and Lily held mom's hand and walked home. They learned a lesson that day. They learned to be careful and listen to mom.

One day, they saw a new boy in their street. He had a red jacket and a big smile. + +"Hi, I'm Sam. I just moved here. Can I play with you?" he asked. + +Tim and Tom looked at each other. They did not want to share their snowman and their sled. They wanted to have fun by themselves. + +"No, you can't. Go away. This is our snow," Tim said. + +"Yeah, go away. We don't like you. You have a silly jacket," Tom said. + +Sam felt sad. He did not have any friends in his new home. He turned around and walked away. + +"Good riddance. He was annoying," Tim said. + +"Yeah, he was. Let's go back to our snowman," Tom said. + +They ran to their snowman and started to decorate it with a hat and a scarf. But then, they heard a loud noise. It was a big truck. It was coming fast. It did not see their snowman. It crashed into it and smashed it to pieces. + +Tim and Tom screamed. They ran to their snowman. It was gone. They only saw snow and ice and the truck's tire marks. + +They felt sad. They had worked hard on their snowman. They had no more snow to make another one.

Maybe they would have had more fun. + +But it was too late. Sam was gone. Their snowman was gone. They had nothing. + +The moral of the story is: You should welcome new people and be kind to them. You never know when you might need their help or friendship. Sharing is better than being selfish. +Tom and Lily like to play in the pond. They look for fish and frogs and bugs. One day, they see something new. It is small and pink and has many legs. It swims fast in the water. + +"What is that?" Tom asks. + +"I don't know," Lily says.

Tom and Lily cannot find it. + +"Where did it go?" Tom says. + +"Maybe it is a magic thing," Lily says. "Maybe it can disappear." + +They look and look, but they cannot see the pink thing.

She often peeked into the pots and pans, smelled the spices and touched the tools. Mom always wore an apron to keep her clothes clean and told Lily to be careful and not to touch anything hot or sharp. + +One day, Lily saw a big cake on the table. It looked yummy and had pink frosting and sprinkles. Lily wanted to taste it, but mom was not in the kitchen. She had gone to the living room to answer the phone. Lily thought mom would not notice if she took a little bite. She climbed on a chair and reached for the cake. + +But mom had warned Lily before. She had said, "Lily, this cake is for grandma's birthday. Do not touch it or you will spoil the surprise. And it is still hot, you might burn your tongue." Lily had nodded, but she did not listen. She was too nosy and hungry. + +As soon as Lily touched the cake, she felt a sting on her finger. The cake was hot and it hurt. Lily cried out loud and dropped the cake. It fell on the floor and broke into pieces. Mom heard the noise and ran to the kitchen. She saw Lily crying, the cake ruined and the apron stained. She was angry and sad. + +"Lily, what have you done?" mom asked. "I warned you not to touch the cake. Now grandma has no cake and you have a sore finger. You were very naughty and nosy. You need to say sorry and go to your room." + +Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She said sorry to mom and grandma, who had also come to see what happened.

They saw a boy with a funny hat that looked like a fish. + +"Can we have your hat, please?" Lily asked the man with the cake hat. + +"No, you can't. This is my hat. I made it myself. Go away, you silly kids," the man said. + +"Can we have your hat, please?" Tom asked the lady with the bird hat. + +"No, you can't. This is my hat. I bought it at the store. Go away, you rude kids," the lady said. + +"Can we have your hat, please?" Lily and Tom asked the boy with the fish hat. + +"Sure, you can. This is my hat. I don't like it anymore. You can have it, if you want," the boy said. + +"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Lily and Tom said. They took the fish hat and put it in their bag.

Lily and Tom said thank you to the people who said yes and sorry to the people who said no. + +They filled their bag with hats and went back to their mom. They were very tired and sleepy. They yawned and rubbed their eyes. + +"Did you have fun, my sweeties?" their mom asked. + +"Yes, we did. We collected many hats. Look, mom, look!" Lily and Tom said. They showed their mom their hats. + +"Wow, you have so many hats. They are very pretty and funny. You are very lucky, my darlings," their mom said. + +She hugged them and kissed them.

They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. + +One day, Ben brought a new car to Sam's house. It was big and shiny and had a button on the side. Ben said, "This is my new car. It is very special. It can run on fuel. Do you know what fuel is?" + +Sam shook his head. He had never heard of fuel. He only knew that cars needed batteries or wind-up keys to move. + +Ben smiled and said, "Fuel is something that makes cars go faster and longer. It is like water, but not water. It is in this bottle. Watch what happens when I press the button." He pressed the button and poured some fuel into the car. + +The car made a loud noise and started to move by itself. It zoomed across the floor and hit the wall. Ben and Sam laughed and clapped. They thought it was amazing. + +But then, something bad happened. The car started to smoke and smell bad. The fuel had caught fire and burned the car. The car turned black and melted. The smoke made the fire alarm go off. Ben and Sam were scared and ran out of the room. + +Sam's mom came and saw the mess. She was angry and worried. She put out the fire and threw away the car. She asked Ben and Sam what they had done. Ben said, "I was trying to introduce Sam to my new car. It ran on fuel. But the fuel made the car burn. I'm sorry, mom. I didn't know it was dangerous." + +Sam's mom said, "Ben, you should never play with fuel. It is not for toys. It is for grown-ups who know how to use it safely. It can hurt you and others. You are lucky you didn't get hurt. You should be ashamed of yourself. And you, Sam, you should know better than to play with things you don't understand. You should always ask before you touch something new. You could have been hurt too. You should be ashamed of yourself too." + +Ben and Sam felt very ashamed. They said they were sorry and hugged Sam's mom. They promised to never play with fuel again. They learned a hard lesson that day. They decided to play with their old cars instead. They still liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. But they also liked to be safe and smart. +Tom and Lily were playing in the yard. They had a ball and a screw. The screw was shiny and pointy. Tom liked to throw the ball and catch it. Lily liked to roll the screw and watch it spin. + +"Let me catch the ball, Tom!" Lily said. "You always catch it!" + +"Okay, okay," Tom said. "But you have to give me the screw. It's mine!" + +"Fine," Lily said. She gave Tom the screw and waited for the ball.

He felt something prick his hand. He looked and saw blood. The screw had cut him. He dropped the screw and cried. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom said. "The screw hurt me!" + +Lily heard Tom cry. She forgot about the ball. She ran to Tom and hugged him. She saw the blood and the screw. + +"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily said. "The screw is bad. Here, take this."

I am the brave knight and I will save the princess!" Tom said, swinging his sword. + +They ran around the garden, having fun. But then, Tom saw something shiny under the tree. He stopped and went to look. + +"What are you doing, knight? The dragon is coming!" Lily said, following him. + +"I see something. Maybe it is treasure!" Tom said, bending down to search. + +He moved the leaves and found a small metal box. It had a lock and a keyhole. He tried to open it, but it was stuck. + +"Wow, what is that?" Lily asked, curious. + +"I don't know. Maybe it is a magic box. Maybe it has a secret inside. We need to find the key!" Tom said, excited. + +They looked around the tree, but they could not see the key. They searched under the rocks, in the grass, and in the flowers. They were persistent, but they could not find the key. + +"Maybe the dragon has the key!" Lily said, suddenly. + +"Maybe you are right! Let's go and ask him!" Tom said, grabbing his sword and shield. + +They ran back to the bushes, where they had left the dragon. They hoped he would be nice and give them the key. But when they got there, they saw something that made them gasp. + +The dragon was gone. And so was the box. +Lily was a famous dancer. She loved to dance on the big stage with her friends.

She looked at her skin and saw red spots. She had chicken pox! + +"Oh no!" Lily cried. "I can't dance with chicken pox! What will I do?" + +"Don't worry, Lily," her friend Mia said. "You can still dance. Just put on some cream and a hat. No one will see your spots." + +Lily was not sure, but she wanted to dance. She put on some cream and a hat. She hoped no one would notice. She went on the stage with her friends. She smiled and danced. + +But then, something bad happened. Her hat slipped off her head. Everyone saw her spots. Lily felt very embarrassed. She wanted to run away. But then, she heard something. She heard people clapping and cheering. They liked her dance. They did not care about her spots. They thought she was brave and funny. + +Lily felt happy again. She realized that chicken pox did not stop her from being a famous dancer. She thanked her friends and the people. She learned that itches and slips are not so bad. She learned that dancing is fun. +Sara likes to help her mom with the mail. She likes to fold the papers and put them in the envelopes. Mom says she is a good helper. + +One day, Sara finds a little envelope on the table. It is pink and has a heart on it. Sara thinks it is pretty. She opens it and sees a card inside. It says "I love you" and has a picture of a cat. + +Sara smiles and runs to show mom. "Look, mom, a card for me!" she says. + +Mom looks at the card and hugs Sara. "That's very nice, Sara, but that card is not for you. It is for grandma. I made it for her birthday. We have to send it to her today." + +Sara feels sad. She likes the card and wants to keep it. She does not want to give it to grandma. She says, "But mom, I love the card. It is so pretty. Can I have it, please?" + +Mom shakes her head. "No, Sara, you can't have it. It is a special gift for grandma. She will be very happy to get it. She loves you very much. Don't you want to make her happy?" + +Sara thinks for a moment. She loves grandma too. She remembers how grandma always gives her cookies and hugs. She says, "Okay, mom, I want to make grandma happy. Can I help you fold the card and put it in the envelope?" + +Mom smiles and says, "Of course, Sara, you can help me. You are a good helper. And you know what? I have another card for you. It is blue and has a star on it. It says "I love you" and has a picture of a dog. Do you want to see it?" + +Sara nods and claps her hands. She says, "Yes, mom, I want to see it. Thank you, mom. I love you." + +Mom says, "I love you too, Sara. Come on, let's finish the mail and then we can look at your card." +Lily and Ben are twins who love to play with their toy cars. They zoom them around the house, making loud noises and pretending to be racers. Sometimes they crash their cars into each other, or into the furniture, or into the cat. This makes their mom very angry. + +One day, mom tells them it is time for their meal. She has made them sandwiches and fruit, and puts them on the table. But Lily and Ben are not hungry. They want to keep playing with their cars. They say no to mom, and zoom away to their room. + +Mom is sad and upset. She worked hard to make them a nice meal, and they did not even say thank you. She decides to teach them a lesson. She takes their cars and hides them in a closet. Then she waits for them to come back. + +Lily and Ben soon get bored of playing in their room. They want to play with their cars again. They look for them everywhere, but they cannot find them. They start to cry and call for mom. + +Mom comes to their room and asks them what is wrong. They tell her they lost their cars and they are sorry. Mom tells them she has their cars, but she will not give them back until they eat their meal and say sorry for being rude. Lily and Ben realize they were silly and wrong. They agree to eat their meal and apologize to mom. Mom is happy and forgives them. She gives them back their cars and hugs them. She tells them they should always be polite and grateful for what they have, and not waste food or hurt the cat. Lily and Ben nod and promise to be good. They eat their meal and thank mom. Then they play with their cars again, but more gently and quietly. They learn their lesson and have fun. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. One day, their mom gave them each an orange to eat. Lily peeled her orange and saw that it was big and juicy. She smiled and said, "This is a good orange. I like it." + +Ben peeled his orange and saw that it was small and dry. He frowned and said, "This is a bad orange. I don't like it." He looked at Lily's orange and felt jealous. He wanted to have her orange instead of his. + +He said to Lily, "Can I have your orange? Mine is not good." Lily shook her head and said, "No, this is my orange. Mom gave it to me. You have your own orange." Ben felt angry and said, "That's not fair. You are selfish. You have to share with me. I am your brother." + +He tried to grab Lily's orange, but Lily held it tight. They started to fight over the orange, pulling and pushing and shouting. Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting and was very upset. She said, "Stop it, both of you. You are being naughty and rude. Fighting over an orange is silly. You should be thankful for what you have and be kind to each other." + +She took away both of their oranges and said, "You don't deserve to have any oranges today. You have to go to your rooms and think about what you did. Maybe next time you will be more polite and generous." Lily and Ben felt sad and sorry. They had lost their oranges and their mom's smile. They had no one to play with and nothing to eat. They had ruined their day with their surprise fight. They wished they had been nicer to each other. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with pens and paper. They draw pictures of animals and houses and cars. Sara has a red pen and Ben has a blue pen. + +One day, they find a different pen in the box. It is green and shiny and has a button on the side. Sara picks it up and says, "Look, Ben, a new pen! Can I try it?" + +Ben nods and says, "Sure, Sara, you can try it. But be careful, it might be a magic pen." + +Sara smiles and presses the button. The pen makes a loud noise and throws a spray of water at Ben. Ben gets wet and surprised. He says, "Hey, Sara, that's not a pen, that's a water gun!" + +Sara laughs and says, "Sorry, Ben, I didn't know. It was a joke. Do you want to play with it?" + +Ben thinks for a moment. He is a little angry, but he also thinks it is funny. He says, "OK, Sara, I want to play with it. But you have to let me spray you back." + +Sara agrees and they take turns to spray each other with the water gun. They have fun and forget about the pens and paper. They are still friends. +Lily and Ben are playing with paper. They like to fold the paper and make shapes. Lily folds a paper into a hat. She puts it on her head and says, "Look, I am a queen!" + +Ben folds a paper into a plane. He throws it in the air and says, "Look, I am a pilot!" + +They take turns folding and throwing their papers. They have fun and laugh. + +Mom comes into the room. She sees the papers everywhere. She is not happy. She says, "What a mess! You need to clean up your papers!" + +Lily and Ben look at Mom. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We were playing." + +Mom smiles. She says, "I know you were playing. But you need to put your papers away when you are done. Can you do that?" + +Lily and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, Mom. We can do that." + +They start to pick up their papers. They fold them neatly and put them in a box. Mom helps them. She says, "Thank you, Lily and Ben. You are good helpers." + +She gives them a hug and a kiss. She says, "You are welcome to play with paper anytime. But remember to clean up afterwards." + +Lily and Ben say, "OK, Mom. We will remember." + +They finish cleaning up. They look at their box of folded papers. They say, "Can we keep them, Mom? They are our shapes." + +Mom says, "Of course you can keep them. They are your shapes. You made them with your hands and your imagination. They are very nice." + +Lily and Ben smile. They say, "Thank you, Mom. You are very nice too." + +They hug Mom again. They say, "We love you, Mom." + +Mom says, "I love you too, Lily and Ben. You are my silly and sweet children." +Tim and Mia like to play with their kayak in the lake. They paddle fast and splash water at each other. They laugh and have fun. + +One day, it is very cold and the lake is white. Tim and Mia want to play with their kayak, but their mom says no. She says the lake is frozen and they cannot paddle. Tim and Mia are sad. + +They go to the lake and look at the ice. They see some fish under the ice. They touch the ice and feel how hard it is. They wonder if they can break the ice and play with their kayak. + +They find a big stick and hit the ice. They hear a loud crack. They see a hole in the ice. They are happy. They run to get their kayak and put it in the hole. + +They try to paddle, but they cannot. The kayak is stuck in the ice. They push and pull, but they cannot move. They are scared. They call for their mom. + +Their mom hears them and comes to the lake. She sees them in the kayak and the hole. She is angry and worried. She tells them to freeze and not move. She gets a rope and throws it to them. She tells them to hold the rope and she pulls them out of the hole. + +She hugs them and tells them they are silly and brave. She tells them they should never play on the ice without her. She takes them home and gives them hot chocolate and cookies. They feel warm and comfortable. They say sorry to their mom and thank her. They promise to be careful next time. They still like to play with their kayak, but only when the lake is not frozen. +Tim and Jen liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big box. The box was like a spaceship. They could go inside and pretend to fly to the stars and planets. They called the box their universe. + +One day, Tim and Jen had a fight. They wanted to play with the same toy, but they did not want to share. They got angry and said mean things to each other. Tim said, "You are not my friend anymore. Go away!" Jen said, "Fine, I don't need you. I have the universe!" She ran to the box and locked the door. She did not let Tim in. + +Tim felt sad and lonely. He knocked on the door and said, "Jen, please open. I'm sorry. I want to play with you." But Jen did not answer. She was too proud and stubborn. She thought she had everything she needed in the box. She played with her toys and looked at the pictures of the stars and planets. She did not care about Tim. + +But after a while, Jen got bored and hungry. She realized she had no food or water in the box. She also missed Tim and his voice. She felt sorry and silly. She wanted to say sorry to Tim and share the toy. She tried to open the door, but it was stuck. She had locked it too hard. She cried and yelled, "Tim, help me! I'm sorry. I want to get out!" + +Tim heard Jen and ran to the box. He was happy to hear her voice. He said, "Jen, I'm here. I'm sorry too. I want to play with you." He tried to open the door, but it was too hard. He needed a key. He looked around and saw the key on the floor. It had fallen out of Jen's pocket when she ran to the box. He picked it up and unlocked the door. He hugged Jen and said, "I'm glad you're okay. I love you, Jen." Jen hugged him back and said, "I love you too, Tim. I'm sorry I locked you out. Can we share the toy?" Tim said, "Of course we can. Sharing is caring. Come on, let's play in the universe together." + +The moral of the story is: Don't be selfish and lock yourself away from others. You need friends and family to be happy. Sharing is caring. The universe is big enough for everyone. +Lily and Tom are playing with blocks. They want to build a big tower. They put one block on top of another block. They are careful not to make the tower fall. + +"Look, Lily, our tower is very high!" Tom says. + +"Yes, Tom, it is very high. But we need more blocks. Can you get some more?" Lily says. + +Tom nods and runs to the box of blocks. He picks up a big piece of wood. It is heavy and hard. He tries to carry it to the tower. + +"Tom, be careful with that piece!" Lily says. "It is too big and too heavy. It will make the tower fall!" + +But Tom does not listen. He wants to make the tower higher. He walks to the tower with the big piece. He lifts it up and puts it on the top of the tower. + +CRASH! + +The big piece is too heavy. It makes the tower fall. The blocks fly everywhere. Lily and Tom are sad. They worked hard to build the tower. + +"Tom, why did you do that?" Lily says. "You were not careful. You made the tower fall. Now we have to start again." + +"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom says. "I wanted to make the tower higher. I did not know the piece was too heavy. Can we still be friends?" + +Lily looks at Tom. She sees that he is sorry. She smiles and hugs him. + +"Of course we can still be friends, Tom," Lily says. "But next time, please be more careful. And listen to me. I know how to build a good tower." + +Tom nods and hugs Lily back. + +"OK, Lily," Tom says. "Next time, I will be more careful. And I will listen to you. You are a good friend. And a good builder." + +They pick up the blocks and start to build a new tower. They are careful and happy. They have fun playing with blocks. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the field near their house. The field has many flowers and bugs and birds. Sara and Ben have fun running and jumping and finding things. + +One day, Sara sees a big, ugly bug on a leaf. It has many legs and eyes and hairs. Sara is scared and screams. Ben hears her and runs to her. + +"What is wrong, Sara?" Ben asks. + +"Look, Ben, look! A big, ugly bug!" Sara points to the leaf. + +Ben looks at the bug. He is not scared. He thinks the bug is interesting and cool. + +"That is not a big, ugly bug, Sara. That is a caterpillar. It is a baby butterfly. It will make a cocoon and then fly away. It is not scary. It is amazing!" Ben says. + +Sara looks at Ben. She trusts him. He knows a lot about bugs and birds and flowers. He is her friend. He supports her when she is scared. + +"Really, Ben? A baby butterfly? Wow!" Sara says. + +"Yes, really, Sara. Do you want to touch it?" Ben asks. + +Sara thinks for a moment. She is still a little scared, but she is also curious. She nods. + +"Okay, Ben. I will touch it. But you have to hold my hand," Sara says. + +Ben smiles and holds Sara's hand. They gently touch the caterpillar. It feels soft and ticklish. Sara and Ben giggle. + +"See, Sara? It is not so bad. It is just a caterpillar. You are brave and smart," Ben says. + +"Thank you, Ben. You are kind and helpful. You are my best friend," Sara says. + +They hug and then go back to playing in the field. They are happy. +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big swamp near their house. They wanted to see what was in it. + +"Let's go to the swamp!" Ben said. + +"No, it's dirty and smelly. Let's play with our toys instead." Lily said. + +But Ben did not listen to Lily. He ran to the swamp and jumped in. He splashed and laughed. + +"Come on, Lily, it's fun!" Ben said. + +Lily shook her head. She did not want to go to the swamp. She stayed on the grass and played with her doll. + +Soon, Ben got bored of the swamp. He wanted to get out. But he could not. He was stuck in the mud. He tried to pull his legs, but they did not move. He cried for help. + +"Lily, help me! I'm stuck!" Ben said. + +Lily heard Ben and ran to the swamp. She saw him in the mud. She was scared. + +"Ben, what did you do? You are in trouble!" Lily said. + +She looked for a stick or a rope to help Ben. But she could not find anything. She did not know what to do. + +Then, she saw something moving in the swamp. It was a big, green, bald crocodile. It had sharp teeth and a long tail. It saw Ben and licked its lips. It was hungry. + +The crocodile swam to Ben and opened its mouth. Ben screamed. Lily screamed. The crocodile bit Ben and dragged him into the swamp. Lily could not save him. She ran away and cried. + +The end. +Anna and Ben like to jog with Mom and Dad. They put on their shoes and hats and go to the park. They jog on the path and see many things. They see birds and flowers and trees. They say hello to other people who jog or walk or bike. + +"Look, Anna, a squirrel!" Ben says, pointing to a furry animal on a branch. + +"Wow, it's so cute!" Anna says. "Can we give it some food?" + +Mom shakes her head. "No, we can't. Squirrels eat nuts and seeds, not our food. And some food can make them sick, like salt. Salt is good for us, but not for them." + +"Why is salt good for us?" Anna asks. + +"Salt helps our body work well. We need a little bit of salt every day. But too much salt can be bad, too. It can make us thirsty and hurt our heart. That's why we don't eat too much salt," Mom explains. + +They jog some more and reach a big fountain. They see water spraying and sparkling in the sun. They hear a loud sound of water splashing. + +"What's that sound?" Ben asks. + +"That's the sound of the fountain. It's loud, isn't it?" Dad says. + +"Yes, it's loud. But I like it. It sounds like fun," Ben says. + +"Me too. Can we go closer and see the water?" Anna asks. + +"Sure, but be careful. Don't get wet or touch the water. It might be dirty or cold," Dad says. + +They go closer and see the water. They see rainbows and bubbles and fish. They smile and laugh and clap their hands. They have fun at the park. They like to jog with Mom and Dad. +Lily and Ben like to play with their toy trains. They have many trains of different colors and sizes. They also have a big track that goes around the room. They can make the trains go fast or slow, or stop and start. + +One day, Lily and Ben decide to make a long train with all their toys. They attach each train to the next one with a hook. The hook is a small metal part that connects the trains. They have to be careful not to break the hook or the train will fall apart. + +"Look, Ben, we have a very long train!" Lily says. "It has red, blue, green, yellow, and pink trains. How many trains do we have?" + +Ben counts the trains. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. We have ten trains, Lily. That is a lot of trains!" + +Lily and Ben are proud of their long train. They make it go around the track. They make train noises with their mouths. They have fun with their toy trains. + +But then, something happens. The hook on the last train breaks. The pink train falls off the track. It makes a loud noise. Lily and Ben are sad. They like the pink train. It is their favorite train. + +"Uh-oh, the hook is broken. The pink train is gone. What can we do, Lily?" Ben asks. + +Lily thinks for a moment. She has an idea. She runs to her room and comes back with a piece of string. She ties the string to the broken hook and the pink train. She attaches the pink train to the long train again. + +"There, Ben, I fixed it. The string is like a new hook. The pink train is back. We can play again." Lily says. + +Ben smiles. He is happy. He hugs Lily. "Thank you, Lily. You are very smart. You are a good sister. I love you." + +Lily hugs Ben back. "You are welcome, Ben. You are very kind. You are a good brother. I love you too." + +Lily and Ben are proud of their long train. They are proud of themselves. They are proud of each other. They play with their toy trains until it is time for dinner. +Tim and Anna were very hungry. They smelled something good from the kitchen. It was sauce. Mom was making sauce for pasta. Tim and Anna loved pasta with sauce. They ran to the kitchen and asked Mom if they could help. + +"Sure, you can help me," Mom said. "Tim, you can stir the sauce with this spoon. Anna, you can sprinkle some cheese on the pasta. Be careful, it's hot." + +Tim and Anna did what Mom said. They stirred and sprinkled and smiled. They were happy to help Mom. They also wanted to taste the sauce and the pasta. They thought they would be delicious. + +But Mom said they had to wait. The sauce and the pasta were not ready yet. They had to cook a little more. Tim and Anna were sad. They wanted to eat now. They were very hungry. + +They sat on the chairs and waited. They looked at the sauce and the pasta. They smelled them. They drooled. They yawned. They were bored. They wished they could eat now. + +"Okay, it's ready," Mom said. "Come and get your plates. Let's eat." + +Tim and Anna jumped from their chairs. They ran to the table. They got their plates. They filled them with pasta and sauce. They thanked Mom. They took big bites. They chewed and swallowed. They smiled. They were happy. The sauce and the pasta were delicious. They ate and ate until they were full. They loved pasta with sauce. They loved Mom. +Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park and share their toys. One day, they saw a big slide in the park. They wanted to try it, but they were a little scared. + +"Who will go first?" Lily asked. + +"I don't know. You can go first, if you want," Tom said. + +"No, you can go first. You are more brave than me," Lily said. + +They looked at each other and smiled. They decided to go together. They held hands and climbed up the stairs. They reached the top and looked down. The slide was very long and steep. + +"Are you ready?" Tom asked. + +"Yes, I am. Are you?" Lily asked. + +"Yes, I am. Let's go!" Tom said. + +They pushed themselves and slid down the slide. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They screamed with joy and laughter. They reached the bottom and hugged each other. + +"That was so fun!" Lily said. + +"That was so fun!" Tom said. + +They looked at each other and smiled. They were very happy. They had supported each other and taken their turn. They felt mighty and proud. + +The moral of the story is: Friends support each other and share their turn. They have more fun and feel mighty when they do. +Lily and Ben were playing with their toy kitchen. They had a lot of cups, plates, spoons and food. They pretended to cook and serve each other. They also had a big jug of water that they used to pour drinks. + +"Here you go, Ben. A nice cup of tea for you," Lily said, pouring some water into a cup. "Be careful, it's hot." + +"Thank you, Lily. You are a good cook," Ben said, taking the cup. He pretended to sip the tea and made a happy sound. + +They played for a while, until they heard a loud knock on the door. They ran to see who it was. It was their dad, dressed in a black robe and a wig. He was a judge, and he worked at the court. He had come home early to surprise them. + +"Hello, my little chefs. What are you cooking today?" he asked, smiling. + +"We are making tea and cake, dad. Do you want some?" Lily asked, holding out a plate with a plastic cake. + +"Of course, I do. That looks delicious," he said, taking the plate. He pretended to eat the cake and made a happy sound. + +He sat down on the floor with them and joined their game. He asked them to pour him some tea, and he praised their cooking skills. He also told them some funny stories about his work at the court. + +They had a lot of fun, until they heard a loud roar from the kitchen. They looked up and saw their cat, Fluffy, jumping on the table. Fluffy was enormous, and he loved to play with water. He saw the jug of water and knocked it over with his paw. The water spilled all over the table and the floor. + +"Oh no, Fluffy! You made a big mess!" Lily cried. + +"Bad cat! Go away!" Ben shouted. + +"Fluffy, what have you done?" their dad said, getting up. He picked up the cat and carried him away. He also grabbed some towels and started to clean up the water. + +Lily and Ben helped him, and they apologized for the mess. Their dad hugged them and said it was okay. He said he was not angry, and he loved them very much. He also said he loved Fluffy, even though he was naughty sometimes. + +They finished cleaning up, and then they went to the living room. They cuddled on the sofa with their dad and Fluffy, and watched a movie. They were happy and cozy, and they forgot about the spilled water. They had a great afternoon together. +Lily was very happy. It was her birthday. She had a big cake with four candles. She had many friends and toys. She wanted to open her presents. + +She saw a big box with a red ribbon. She ran to it and tried to pull the ribbon. But it was too tight. She pulled harder and harder. She did not ask for help. She did not say please or thank you. + +The ribbon broke and the box opened. But inside was not a toy. It was a big mess. There were papers and crayons and glue and scissors. They were all mixed up and spilled out. Lily was sad and angry. She cried and shouted. + +Her mom came and saw the mess. She was not happy. She said, "Lily, what did you do? This was not your present. This was for your art project. You should have asked before you opened it. You should have been polite and patient. Now you have ruined your project and your birthday." + +Lily felt sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was too excited. I wanted to see what was inside. I did not think. I did not listen. I was not nice." + +Her mom hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily. I forgive you. But you have to learn from your mistake. Next time, you have to be careful and respectful. You have to wait for your turn and share with others. You have to say please and thank you. That is how you make your birthday and every day interesting and fun." +Tom and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a big, old tree with a hole in it. They wanted to see what was inside. + +"Let's go in!" Tom said. + +"No, it's scary!" Mia said. + +"Come on, it's fun!" Tom said. He ran to the tree and crawled into the hole. + +Mia followed him, but she was afraid. She held Tom's hand as they went deeper into the dark. + +Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was a rabbit. But not a normal rabbit. It was a huge, ancient rabbit with long teeth and fur. It was angry that they were in its home. + +"Who are you?" the rabbit growled. + +"We're sorry, we're just kids. We were curious," Tom said. + +"Curious? You're trespassing! This is my tree, and you have to leave!" the rabbit said. + +The rabbit jumped at them, trying to bite them. Tom and Mia screamed and ran back to the hole. But the rabbit was faster and blocked their way. + +They were trapped. They didn't know what to do. + +Then, Mia had an idea. She remembered that rabbits liked carrots. She had one in her pocket. She took it out and threw it to the other side of the tree. + +"Look, a carrot!" she shouted. + +The rabbit turned its head and saw the carrot. It loved carrots. It forgot about Tom and Mia and ran to get the carrot. + +Tom and Mia saw their chance. They ran past the rabbit and out of the hole. They were safe. + +They ran to their mom, who was waiting for them on a bench. They told her what happened. + +"Wow, that was a brave and smart thing you did, Mia," their mom said. + +"Thank you, mom. But I don't want to go back to that tree ever again," Mia said. + +"Me neither," Tom said. + +They hugged their mom and went to play on the swings. They didn't see the rabbit again. But they heard it munching on the carrot and spinning in joy. +Lily loved hockey. She liked to watch it on TV with her dad. She liked to play it with her friends at the park. She liked to wear her hockey shirt and hat. + +One day, Lily saw an elderly man walking his dog near the park. He had a hockey stick in his hand. Lily ran up to him and said, "Hi! Do you like hockey too?" + +The elderly man smiled and said, "Yes, I do. I used to play hockey when I was young. This is my old stick. I keep it for memories." + +Lily was curious. She asked, "Can you show me how to play hockey with your stick?" + +The elderly man nodded and said, "Sure, why not? Come on, let's go to the park. I'll teach you some tricks." + +Lily was happy. She urged her dad to come with her. She said, "Dad, dad, come on! This man knows how to play hockey. He can teach us. Please, please, come on!" + +Her dad agreed and followed them to the park. There, the elderly man showed Lily and her dad how to hold the stick, how to pass the puck, how to shoot, and how to skate. Lily and her dad had a lot of fun. They thanked the elderly man for his lessons. + +The elderly man said, "You're welcome. You're both very good. Keep practicing and you'll be great hockey players. Maybe one day, I'll see you on TV." + +Lily and her dad hugged the elderly man and his dog. They said, "Thank you, thank you. You're very kind. We hope to see you again." + +They waved goodbye and went home. Lily and her dad talked about hockey all the way. Lily said, "Dad, that was the best day ever. I love hockey. And I love you." + +Her dad said, "I love you too, Lily. And I love hockey. You made me very proud today." +Tom saw a bird in the garden. The bird was small and brown. It had a red spot on its head. Tom liked the bird. He wanted to play with it. + +He ran to the bird and said, "Hello, bird. Do you want to be my friend?" The bird was scared of Tom. It flew away to a tree. Tom followed the bird. He wanted to catch it. + +But there was a big cat in the garden. The cat saw the bird too. The cat was hungry and sneaky. It crept towards the tree. It wanted to eat the bird. + +Tom saw the cat. He did not like the cat. He wanted to protect the bird. He shouted, "Go away, cat! Leave the bird alone!" The cat was surprised by Tom. It hissed and ran away. + +The bird saw Tom. It saw that Tom saved it from the cat. It was grateful and happy. It flew down to Tom and said, "Thank you, Tom. You are very kind and brave. You are my friend." Tom was proud and happy. He smiled and said, "You are welcome, bird. You are very pretty and smart. You are my friend too." Tom and the bird hugged and played in the garden. They were both happy. +Tommy and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big red balloon tied to a bench. Tommy wanted the balloon. He ran to the bench and tried to untie the knot. + +"Tommy, don't touch the balloon!" Lily shouted. "It is not yours!" + +But Tommy did not listen. He pulled and pulled on the string. The knot was too tight. He got angry and bit the string. Pop! The balloon burst and made a loud noise. + +Tommy and Lily were scared. They heard footsteps.

"Who popped my balloon?" + +Tommy and Lily ran away. They hid behind a tree. They hoped the man would not find them. They learned a lesson. They should not take things that are not theirs. +Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play in the kitchen. One day, they find a big jar of butter on the table. They want to taste it. + +"Can we have some butter?" Lily asks Tom. + +"Yes, let's have some butter. It looks yummy," Tom says. + +They open the jar and dip their fingers in the butter. They lick their fingers and smile. The butter is soft and sweet. + +"More butter, more butter," Lily says. + +"Me too, me too," Tom says. + +They take more butter and put it on their faces, their hair, their clothes. They laugh and giggle. They look like yellow monsters. + +Mom comes into the kitchen. She sees the mess. She sees the twins. She is angry. + +"What have you done?" Mom asks. + +"Nothing, nothing," Lily and Tom say. + +They lie to Mom. They are not good. + +Mom does not believe them. She sees the jar. She sees the butter. She knows the truth. + +"You have been naughty. You have wasted the butter. You have made a mess. You have lied to me. You have to say sorry. You have to clean up. You have to go to your room," Mom says. + +Lily and Tom are sad. They know they have done wrong. They say sorry to Mom. They help her clean up. They go to their room. + +They hug each other. They are sorry. They love each other. They love Mom. + +They look out the window. They see the sun. They see the sky. They see the flowers. They are beautiful. + +They hope Mom will forgive them.

She likes to dance with her friends at school. + +One day, Sara has a dance show. She is very excited. She practices her dance steps with her teacher and her friends. She wants to do well and make her mommy and daddy proud. + +The show starts. Sara goes on the stage with her friends. They smile and wave to the people. The music plays. Sara and her friends start to dance. Sara follows the rhythm. She moves her feet and arms like her teacher taught her. + +But then, Sara trips. She falls down on the floor. She hurts her knee. She feels a big pain. She starts to cry. She feels very embarrassed. She thinks everyone is laughing at her. She wants to go home. + +Her teacher runs to her. She helps her get up. She hugs her and says, "It's okay, Sara. Accidents happen. You don't have to be embarrassed. You did a great job. You are a good dancer. I'm proud of you." + +Sara looks at her teacher. She looks at her friends. They are not laughing. They are clapping and cheering for her. They say, "You are awesome, Sara. We love you. You are our friend." + +Sara feels better. She smiles and says, "Thank you, teacher. Thank you, friends. I'm sorry I fell down. I'm happy you are here. You are the best." + +She hugs her teacher and her friends. She feels the rhythm in her heart. She feels the love in her smile. She is not embarrassed anymore. She is happy. +Anna and Ben are playing hide and seek in the park. Anna counts to ten and then says, "Ready or not, here I come!" She starts to look for Ben behind the trees and the bushes. She thinks he is very clever at hiding. + +Ben is hiding under a big blanket on a bench. He covers his mouth with his hand so he does not make any noise. He hopes Anna will not find him. He likes to win the game. + +Anna walks past the bench, but she does not see Ben. She thinks he must be somewhere else. She goes to the slide and the swings, but he is not there either. She starts to feel tired of the search. She says, "Ben, where are you? I give up!" + +Ben hears Anna and smiles. He jumps out of the blanket and says, "Boo! I am here! I tricked you!" He runs to Anna and gives her a hug. He says, "You are a good seeker, but I am a better hider!" + +Anna laughs and says, "You are very sneaky, Ben! But I had fun looking for you. Do you want to play again?" + +Ben nods and says, "Yes, let's play again! But this time, you hide and I seek. I will find you in no time!" + +They run to a new spot and start the game again. They are happy and have a lot of fun. +Sara and Tom were twins. They liked to play together. They had a big mirror in their room. They liked to look at themselves in the mirror and make funny faces. + +One day, they had a plan. They wanted to trick their mom. They put on each other's clothes and hats. They swapped their toys and books. They hoped their mom would not know who was who. + +They went downstairs to the kitchen. Their mom was making breakfast. She smiled when she saw them. She said, "Good morning, Sara and Tom. You look very ordinary today." + +Sara and Tom were confused. They thought their mom would be surprised or confused. They said, "Mom, we have a plan. We are not Sara and Tom. We are Tom and Sara. We swapped our clothes and things. Can you tell?" + +Their mom laughed. She said, "I know your plan. I can always tell who is who. You have different eyes and noses and smiles. You are my special twins. I love you both very much." + +Sara and Tom felt silly. They hugged their mom. They said, "We love you too, mom. You are very smart. Can we have breakfast now?" + +Their mom said, "Of course. Let's go eat. And then you can change back to your own clothes and things. Or you can keep them if you like. It doesn't matter to me. You are always my Sara and Tom." +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to gather flowers and leaves and make pretend tea. They had a small table and two cups and a pot. + +"Let's go inside and get some cookies for our tea," Lily said. "Mommy said we can have some if we share." + +"Okay," Ben said. They ran to the kitchen and looked for the cupboard where the cookies were. But it was too high for them to reach. + +"How can we get the cookies?" Ben asked. + +Lily had an idea. She saw a chair near the wall. She was brave and climbed on the chair. She reached for the cupboard door and opened it. She saw a big jar of cookies. + +"Wow, look at all the cookies!" she said. "Can you help me get the jar?" + +Ben was brave too. He climbed on the chair next to Lily. He held the jar with both hands and lifted it. It was heavy. + +"Be careful!" Lily said. "Don't drop it!" + +They slowly moved the jar to the edge of the cupboard. Then they put it on the table. They opened the jar and took out two cookies each. + +"Yummy!" Ben said. "These are the best cookies ever!" + +"Let's go back to the garden and have our tea," Lily said. "We can bring the jar with us and have more cookies later." + +They carried the jar and their cups and pot to the garden. They sat at their table and poured their pretend tea. They ate their cookies and smiled. + +They were happy. They had gathered flowers and leaves, they had found cookies in the cupboard, and they had been brave. They were good friends. +Lily and Ben were playing with water in the garden. They had a big bucket and some cups and bottles. They liked to pour water from one thing to another and make splashes. + +"Look, Lily, I can pour water from this bottle to this cup without spilling!" Ben said. He held the bottle high and tilted it slowly. + +"Wow, Ben, you are very good!" Lily said. She wanted to try too. She picked up another bottle and a cup. But she poured too fast and too much. The water spilled over the cup and onto the ground. + +"Oh no, Lily, you made a mess!" Ben said. He was not happy. He wanted to keep the water in the bucket. + +"I'm sorry, Ben, I didn't mean to!" Lily said. She felt bad. She looked at the result of her pouring. There was a big puddle on the ground. And there was something else. Something shiny and sharp. + +"Ben, look, there is a glass in the puddle!" Lily said. She pointed at the glass. It was broken and had sharp edges. + +"Where did that come from?" Ben said. He moved closer to see. But he was not careful. He stepped on the glass and cut his foot. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben cried. He lifted his foot and saw blood. It hurt a lot. + +"Lily, help me, it hurts!" Ben said. He was scared. + +Lily ran to him and hugged him. She was scared too. She didn't know what to do. + +"Ben, don't worry, I'll get Mommy!" Lily said. She let go of him and ran to the house. She shouted for Mommy. + +Mommy heard Lily and came out. She saw Ben and the glass and the blood. She was worried. + +"Ben, what happened?" Mommy said. She ran to him and picked him up. She wrapped his foot with a cloth. + +"Lily poured water and there was a glass and I stepped on it and it hurts!" Ben said. He sobbed. + +Mommy kissed him and said, "It's okay, Ben, I'll take you to the doctor. He will make it better." + +She looked at Lily and said, "Lily, you should be more careful when you pour water. You don't know what might be in the ground. And you should never touch broken glass. It can hurt you." + +Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Mommy, I'm sorry, Ben. I didn't know there was a glass. I won't pour water like that again." + +Mommy smiled and said, "It's okay, Lily, I know you didn't mean to. But you have to be more careful. And you have to be a good sister to Ben. He needs you." + +Lily smiled and said, "I will, Mommy, I will. I love Ben." + +Mommy hugged them both and said, "I love you too. Now let's go to the doctor and make Ben's foot better." +Tim and Sue were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big blue box near the slide. They wanted to know what was inside. + +"Let's examine the box," Tim said. "Maybe there is a toy or a cake." + +"OK," Sue said. "But be careful. Maybe there is a monster or a trap." + +They went to the box and opened it. Inside, there was a lot of candy. They were very happy. They took some candy and ate it. It was sweet and yummy. + +"Wow, this is the best day ever," Tim said. "We can have candy every day for a week." + +But then, they heard a loud noise. It was a siren. A police car came to the park. A man got out of the car. He was angry. + +"Hey, you two, stop!" he shouted. "That is my box. You are stealing my candy. That is bad. You are in trouble." + +Tim and Sue were scared. They dropped the candy and ran away. But the man was faster. He caught them and put them in the car. He drove them to the police station. There, they had to talk to a lady. She was not happy. + +"You did a very naughty thing," she said. "You took something that was not yours. That is wrong. You have to say sorry and give back the candy. And you have to stay here for a long time. No more park, no more play, no more fun." + +Tim and Sue cried. They wished they never saw the blue box. They wished they never examined it. They wished they listened to Sue. They learned a hard lesson. The end. +Sam and Mia are at the beach with their mom and dad. They like to play in the sand and splash in the water. They see a big wave coming and run to the shore. + +"Wow, look at that wave!" Sam says. "It is so big and blue!" + +"Can we ride it?" Mia asks. + +Mom and dad shake their heads. "No, that wave is too strong for you. You can watch it from here, but don't go too close." + +Sam and Mia sit on the sand and watch the wave crash on the rocks. They hear a loud noise and see white foam. + +"That is cool!" Sam says. + +Mia nods. "I wish I could make a wave like that." + +They look at each other and get an idea.

They love the beach and the waves. +Tim and Sam were brothers who loved to play with their wagon. They had a red wagon with four wheels and a long handle. They liked to fill it with toys, books, and snacks and take it to the park. Sometimes they pretended it was a car, a boat, or a spaceship. + +One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He had a shiny wagon that looked like a real car. It had a horn, a radio, and a battery. The boy was very proud of his wagon and did not want to share it with anyone. He said he was wealthy and his wagon was the best. + +Tim and Sam wanted to see the boy's wagon, but he was rude and mean. He said they could not touch it or play with it. He said their wagon was old and ugly and they were poor. He laughed at them and drove away. + +Tim and Sam felt sad and angry. They did not like the boy or his wagon. They decided to ignore him and play with their own wagon. They said their wagon was fun and special and they were happy. They said they loved their wagon and each other. + +The next day, it rained a lot. The park was muddy and wet. Tim and Sam stayed home and played with their wagon inside. They made a fort with blankets and pillows and read stories and ate cookies. They had a lot of fun. + +The boy with the shiny wagon went to the park anyway. He wanted to show off his wagon and make fun of Tim and Sam. But he did not know that the rain had damaged his wagon. His horn did not work, his radio did not play, and his battery did not last. His wagon got stuck in the mud and he could not move it. He cried and yelled for help. + +Tim and Sam heard the boy's cries from their window. They looked outside and saw his wagon in the mud. They felt sorry for him and decided to help him. They put on their boots and coats and took their wagon outside. They used their handle to pull his wagon out of the mud. They offered him a ride home and a cookie. + +The boy was surprised and grateful. He said he was sorry for being rude and mean. He said he wanted to be friends with Tim and Sam. He said he liked their wagon and they were nice. He said he learned that being wealthy is not as important as being kind and generous. + +Tim and Sam smiled and nodded. They said they forgave him and they wanted to be friends too. They said they liked his wagon and he was welcome to play with theirs. They said they learned that being happy is not about what you have, but who you share it with. + +They all got in the wagon and drove home. They laughed and sang and talked. They became good friends and played with their wagons every day. They loved their wagons and each other. +Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big tree with many nuts on it. They wanted to pick some nuts to eat, but the tree was too high. + +"Look, there is a ladder!" Tom said. He pointed to a wooden ladder leaning on the tree. "We can use it to climb up and get some nuts!" + +Lily was scared. She did not like high places. She shook her head. "No, Tom, that is not safe. The ladder might fall and we might get hurt. We should ask a grown-up for help." + +Tom did not listen. He was brave and hungry. He ran to the ladder and started to climb. "Come on, Lily, don't be a baby. It will be fun and yummy. See, I found a peanut!" He raised the peanut in his hand and smiled. + +Lily watched from the ground. She felt worried. She saw that the ladder was old and shaky. She heard a loud crack. The ladder broke and Tom fell down. He landed on the grass and cried. He dropped the peanut and hurt his arm. + +Lily ran to Tom and hugged him. She called for help. A nice lady came and helped them. She took them to a bench and gave them a band-aid and a cookie. She told them that they should never climb on things that are not stable and that they should always listen to their friends who care for them. + +Tom and Lily said sorry and thanked the lady. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with their toys instead of nuts. They agreed that being safe and kind was more cool than being brave and hungry. +Sam liked to draw with his crayons. He drew cars, dogs, trees and stars. He was very good at drawing. His mom was proud of him. + +One day, his mom said, "Sam, do you want to learn how to write your name?" + +Sam nodded. He wanted to write his name like his mom and dad. + +His mom took a pencil and a paper. She wrote S-A-M in big letters. She said, "This is how you write Sam. Can you copy me?" + +Sam tried to copy his mom. He held the pencil in his hand. He moved his arm on the paper. But his letters were not like his mom's. They were wiggly and messy. He was sad. + +His mom said, "Don't be sad, Sam. Writing is hard. You need to practice. I will teach you how to write better. It will be fun." + +Sam said, "But mom, writing is boring. I like drawing better. Can I draw instead?" + +His mom said, "Writing is not boring, Sam. Writing is useful. You can write stories, letters, cards and signs. You can write anything you want. Drawing is fun, but writing is fun too. You can do both. How about we make a deal?" + +Sam said, "What is a deal?" + +His mom said, "A deal is when we agree on something. I will teach you how to write one letter every day. And you will try your best. And after you write the letter, you can draw anything you want. Is that a good deal?" + +Sam thought for a moment. He liked drawing, but he also wanted to learn how to write. He said, "OK, mom. That is a good deal. Let's start with S." + +His mom smiled. She said, "Good. Let's start with S. S is for Sam, and for star, and for snake. Can you think of other words that start with S?" + +Sam said, "Yes, mom. S is for sun, and for soap, and for sock. And for smile." + +His mom said, "That's right, Sam. You are very smart. Now, let me show you how to write S. Watch my arm and follow me." + +Sam watched his mom's arm and followed her.

They did not like the barn. They did not like the noise. They did not like the strangers. They moved away from Lisa when she came near them. They snorted and kicked and bit. They scared Lisa. + +Lisa was sad. She said, "Why don't you like me, ponies? I like you. I have a toy pony that looks like you. See?" She took out Spot from her backpack and showed it to the ponies. But the ponies did not care. They ignored Spot. They ignored Lisa. They wanted to leave. + +Lisa was about to cry. She said, "Please, ponies, please be nice to me. Please let me pet you. Please let me ride you. Please be my friends." She held out Spot to the ponies. She hoped they would change their minds. + +But then, something amazing happened. One of the ponies, the black one with a white spot on its nose, looked at Spot. It looked at Lisa. It moved closer to Lisa. It sniffed Spot. It nuzzled Lisa. It made a soft sound. It liked Spot. It liked Lisa. + +Lisa was surprised. She smiled. She said, "Hello, pony. Do you like Spot? Do you like me? Are you my friend?" She stroked the pony's hair. She hugged the pony's neck. She felt the pony's warmth. + +The pony nodded. It was Lisa's friend. It let Lisa pet it. It let Lisa ride it. It was happy. It was the only pony that looked like Spot. It was the only pony that liked Lisa. It was Lisa's pony. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play and talk. One day, they go to visit Sue's grandma. Grandma lives in a big house with a garden. She has a dog named Spot. + +"Hello, Tom and Sue," Grandma says. "Do you want to see my flowers?" + +"Yes, please," Tom and Sue say. They follow Grandma to the garden. There are many flowers of different colors and shapes. Grandma tells them the names of the flowers. Tom and Sue try to remember them. + +"Look, this is a rose. It is red and smells nice. But be careful, it has thorns. They can hurt you," Grandma says. + +"I know, I know," Sue says. "I am smart. I can say rose. R-o-s-e." + +"Very good, Sue," Grandma says. "You are smart. And how about you, Tom? Can you say rose?" + +Tom nods. He opens his mouth. But before he can say anything, Spot runs to him and licks his face. Tom laughs. He hugs Spot. + +"I can say dog. D-o-g," Tom says. + +"Very good, Tom," Grandma says. "You are smart, too. And Spot is a good dog. He likes you." + +Tom and Sue smile. They watch Spot play with a ball. They are happy. They like to visit Grandma and Spot. They have fun. +Sara and Ben are eager to play with their toy rocket. They want to make it fly high in the sky. They plan to use some fuel to make it go fast. + +They find a bottle of water and a can of soda in the kitchen. They think these are good fuel for their rocket. They pour some water and soda into the rocket's engine. They shake it well and put it on the ground. + +"Are you ready, Ben?" Sara asks. + +"Yes, I am, Sara. Let's count to three and launch it!" Ben says. + +They hold hands and count together. "One, two, three!" + +They press the button on the rocket. The rocket makes a loud noise and shoots out a stream of bubbles. It flies up in the air for a few seconds, then falls down on the grass. + +"Wow, that was amazing!" Sara says. + +"That was so much fun!" Ben says. + +They run to pick up their rocket and hug it. They are happy and proud of their plan. They decide to try it again with more fuel. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they want to play dress up. Lily has a pink dress and a crown. Tom has a cape and a hat. They dress up and pretend to be a princess and a king. + +"Look at me, I am a princess!" Lily says. She twirls her dress and smiles. + +"You are very pretty, princess," Tom says. He puts on his hat and cape. "And I am a king. I have a big castle and a horse." + +They run to the gate of the park. The gate is old and rusty. It has a sign that says "Do not enter". + +"Let's go to the castle, king," Lily says. She tries to open the gate. + +"No, princess, we can't," Tom says. He pulls her back. "The sign says no. It is not safe." + +"But I want to see the castle," Lily says. She is sad. + +"Maybe we can find another castle," Tom says. He looks around. He sees a big slide. "Look, princess, there is a castle. It is shiny and fun." + +Lily sees the slide. She is happy. "Yes, king, let's go to the castle. It is fast and fun." + +They run to the slide. They climb up and slide down. They laugh and have fun. They forget about the gate and the old castle. They are happy in their new castle. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with books and toys. One day, they find a big book with many words. They want to read the book, but they do not know all the words. + +"Look, Lily, this word is big and red. What does it say?" Tom asks. + +Lily looks at the word. She tries to sound it out. "It says... F... E... E... L. Feel. Do you know what feel means, Tom?" + +Tom thinks for a moment. He touches his nose, his hair, and his shirt. "Feel means to touch something with your hand or your skin. Like this. I feel my nose. It is soft and wet. I feel my hair. It is long and curly. I feel my shirt. It is smooth and warm." + +Lily nods. She touches her eyes, her ears, and her mouth. "I feel my eyes. They are round and shiny. I feel my ears. They are small and floppy. I feel my mouth. It is wet and soft. But feel can also mean something else, Tom. Feel can also mean to have something in your heart or your mind. Like this. I feel happy when I play with you. I feel sad when you are not here. I feel scared when it is dark. I feel angry when you take my toy." + +Tom listens to Lily. He understands what she means. He feels something in his heart and his mind too. "I feel happy when I play with you too, Lily. I feel sorry when I make you sad. I feel brave when you are with me. I feel sorry when I take your toy. I will not do that again." + +Lily smiles. She hugs Tom. "You are a good friend, Tom. I like you. Feel is a good word. It is a powerful word. It can make us understand each other better. It can make us feel many things. It can make us feel love." + +Tom hugs Lily back. He likes her too. He agrees with her. "Feel is a powerful word, Lily. It is my favorite word. I want to learn more words like feel. Words that can make us feel good. Words that can make us happy. Words that can make us friends." +Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big square. The square is red and blue and yellow and green. It has buttons and lights and sounds. The square is playful and fun. + +One day, a man comes to their house. He has a big bag. He knocks on the door and says, "Hello, I am here to sell you some new toys. Do you want to see them?" Ben and Sam are curious. They run to the door and say, "Yes, please!" + +The man opens his bag and shows them some toys. He has cars and dolls and balls and books. He says, "These toys are very nice and cheap. You can have them for only one dollar each. Do you want to buy some?" Ben and Sam look at the toys. They think they are boring and old. They say, "No, thank you. We like our toys better." + +The man smiles and says, "Oh, I see. You like your toys better. But do you know what? I like your toys better too. Especially that big square. It looks very playful and fun. Can I have it? I will give you ten dollars for it. That is a lot of money. You can buy many new toys with it." Ben and Sam look at the square. They love the square. They do not want to give it away. They say, "No, thank you. The square is ours. We do not want to sell it." + +The man frowns and says, "Oh, come on. Don't be silly. The square is old and noisy. You will get tired of it soon. You will have more fun with my toys. They are new and shiny. Here, take the money and give me the square. It is a good deal." He tries to grab the square from Ben and Sam. They hold on to the square and say, "No, no, no! Go away! Leave us alone!" + +The man gets angry and says, "Fine. If you won't sell me the square, I will take it by force. You are just little kids. You can't stop me." He pushes Ben and Sam to the ground and snatches the square from them. He runs to his car and drives away. Ben and Sam cry and scream. They want their square back. They are very sad and scared. + +The end. +Tom and Mia were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had a big box of toys that they shared, but sometimes they fought over who got to play with what. One day, their mom said they had to unpack the box and put the toys away in their rooms. Tom and Mia did not want to do that. They wanted to keep playing with the box. + +Tom said, "I want the box. It is mine. I can make it a car or a house or a rocket." Mia said, "No, it is mine. I want the box. I can make it a castle or a boat or a zoo." They both pulled on the box and tried to take it from each other. They used their muscles to tug and push, but the box was too big and heavy for them. + +Then, they heard a loud roar from outside. They looked out the window and saw a fierce lion in their yard. The lion had escaped from the circus and was looking for food. Tom and Mia were scared. They dropped the box and ran to their mom. They hugged her and said, "Mom, there is a lion outside. It is fierce. It might eat us." + +Mom said, "Don't worry, kids. I called the police and the circus. They will come and catch the lion and take it back to its cage. It won't hurt us. But you have to stay inside and be quiet until they do. And you have to unpack the box and put the toys away in your rooms. That is your job." + +Tom and Mia nodded. They said, "OK, mom. We will do our job. We will unpack the box and put the toys away. And we will share the toys and not fight. We are sorry." They went to their rooms and did what mom said. They were glad they had each other and mom to keep them safe from the fierce lion. +Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they would see other kids and play with them too. They had a lot of fun. + +But then they heard a loud noise. It was a big dog. The dog was barking and running towards them. It looked angry and scary. Tom and Lily were afraid. They dropped their ball and ran away. They looked for their mom and dad, but they could not see them. + +"Help! Help!" they shouted. "The dog is chasing us!" + +They saw a gate at the end of the park. They ran to the gate and opened it. They escaped from the dog. They were safe. They hugged each other and breathed hard. + +They looked at the sky. It was getting dark. They saw the sunset. It was very colorful. It had red, orange, yellow, pink and purple. It was beautiful. They smiled. + +"Look, Lily, the sunset is like our ball!" Tom said. + +"Yes, Tom, it is!" Lily said. "But we lost our ball. The dog took it." + +They felt sad. They liked their ball. They hoped the dog would not bite it. + +They heard their mom and dad calling their names. They ran to them and told them what happened. Their mom and dad hugged them and said they were brave. They said they would buy them a new ball. + +They walked home together. They looked at the sunset again. It was still colorful. They felt happy. They had each other. +Sam loves his dog, Rex. Rex is big and brown and has soft fur. Rex likes to play with Sam and sleep in his bed. Rex also likes to protect Sam from anything scary. + +One day, Sam and Rex go to the park with Mom. They see a lot of other dogs and people. Sam and Rex run and play on the grass. They have fun. + +But then, Sam sees a big black dog that barks very loud. The dog runs towards Sam and Rex. Sam feels afraid. He does not know the dog. He thinks the dog is angry. + +"Rex, help!" Sam cries. + +Rex hears Sam and runs to him. Rex stands in front of Sam and growls at the black dog. Rex tells the black dog to go away. Rex is brave and strong. + +The black dog stops and looks at Rex. The black dog is afraid of Rex. The black dog turns around and runs away. + +Sam hugs Rex and says, "Thank you, Rex. You are a good dog. You protected me. You made me safe." + +Mom comes and hugs Sam and Rex too. She says, "I'm proud of you, Rex. You are a good dog. You protected Sam. You made him safe." + +Sam and Rex smile and lick Mom's face. They are happy. They love each other. They are a family. +Lily and Max were playing in the park with their mom. They had a cooler with snacks and drinks for later. They saw some pigeons on the grass and wanted to feed them. + +"Mom, can we give some bread to the birds?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, but be gentle and don't scare them," Mom said. She gave them some pieces of bread and told them to scatter them on the ground. + +Lily and Max walked slowly to the pigeons and tossed the bread. The pigeons flew over and pecked at the bread. Lily and Max giggled and watched them. + +"Look, that one has a red ring on its leg," Max said. + +"Maybe it belongs to someone," Lily said. + +They tried to get closer to the pigeon, but it flew away. + +"Bye, birdie," Lily said. + +They went back to their mom and the cooler. They were thirsty and hungry. + +"Can we have some juice and cookies, Mom?" Max asked. + +"Of course, you did a good job feeding the birds," Mom said. She opened the cooler and gave them each a juice box and a cookie. + +They sat on a bench and enjoyed their snacks. They felt happy and proud. + +"Feeding the birds is easy and fun," Lily said. + +"I agree," Max said. + +They smiled and hugged their mom. They loved playing in the park. +Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play with balls. They bounce the balls high and low, fast and slow. They have fun. + +One day, they go to the station with Lila's mom. The station is big and loud. There are many people and trains. Lila and Ben hold hands. They do not want to get lost. + +Lila sees a big red ball in a shop. She wants the ball. She asks her mom. Her mom says no. The ball is too expensive. Lila is sad. She cries. + +Ben sees Lila cry. He wants to help. He has an idea. He gives Lila his ball. He says, "Here, Lila. You can have my ball. It is blue and soft. You can bounce it with me." + +Lila stops crying. She smiles. She hugs Ben. She says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a loyal friend. You are kind and generous. I like your ball. I will bounce it with you." + +Lila and Ben bounce the ball together. They are happy. They forget about the big red ball. They have each other. They are friends. +Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make up stories with their dolls and cars. Tom had a flexible snake that he could bend and twist in different ways. Lily had a chocolate bar that she got from her grandma. + +"Look at my snake, Lily. It can raise its head and hiss like this." Tom said, making a loud noise with his mouth. + +"That's cool, Tom. But can your snake do this?" Lily said, breaking off a piece of her chocolate and putting it in her mouth. She smiled and licked her lips. + +Tom looked at Lily and felt hungry. He wanted some chocolate too. He asked Lily, "Can I have some of your chocolate, please?" + +Lily thought for a moment. She liked to share, but she also liked her chocolate. She had an idea. She said, "OK, Tom. You can have some of my chocolate, but only if you let me play with your snake." + +Tom agreed. He liked to play with his snake, but he also wanted some chocolate. He gave his snake to Lily and took a piece of her chocolate. He bit into it and felt happy. + +Lily took the snake and bent it into a circle. She said, "Look, Tom. Your snake is flexible. It can make a ring like this." + +Tom looked at Lily and smiled.

They giggled and played together. They were happy. They shared their toys and their chocolate. They were good friends. +Sara and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they saw a big cloud in the sky. It looked like rain. + +"Let's go to the shelter," Sara said. "We can stay dry there." + +The shelter was a small house made of wood and metal. It was near the swings and the slide. Sara and Ben ran to the shelter with their toys. They put them on the floor and sat down. + +"Can I lend you my doll?" Sara asked Ben. "She is very pretty and nice." + +"Sure, thank you," Ben said. "Can I lend you my car? It is very fast and cool." + +"Okay, thank you," Sara said. They swapped their toys and played with them happily. + +But Ben was clumsy. He did not hold the doll carefully. He dropped her on the floor. The doll's head broke off. + +"Oh no!" Ben cried. "I'm sorry, Sara. I broke your doll." + +Sara looked at her doll. She felt sad and angry. She grabbed Ben's car and threw it out of the shelter. The car hit a rock and smashed. + +"Hey!" Ben shouted. "You broke my car." + +Sara and Ben glared at each other. They did not want to be friends anymore. They wanted their toys back. + +But then, they heard a loud noise. It was thunder. The rain started to fall. It was heavy and cold. + +Sara and Ben looked outside. They saw their toys getting wet and dirty. They felt sorry and silly. They did not mean to break their toys. They did not mean to hurt each other. + +"Can we be friends again?" Sara asked Ben. + +"Can we fix our toys?" Ben asked Sara. + +They nodded and hugged.

She found a big stick and ran after a bird. + +"Come here, bird, come here!" she shouted. The bird flew away from her. Lily was angry. She saw another bird on a branch. She threw the stick at the bird. The stick hit the branch and made a loud snap. The bird was scared and flew away too. + +Lily's mom heard the snap and came to the garden. She saw Lily with the stick and the birds flying away. She was not happy. + +"Lily, what are you doing?" she asked. "Why are you throwing sticks at the birds?" + +Lily looked down. She did not want to answer. + +"I wanted to catch a bird and make it my pet," she said in a small voice. + +"Lily, that is very naughty. You cannot catch a bird and make it your pet. Birds are wild animals. They need to be free and fly in the sky. They do not like to be hit by sticks. You could hurt them or make them sick. How would you feel if someone threw a stick at you?" + +Lily felt sorry. She did not think about how the birds felt. She did not want to hurt them or make them sick. She wanted to be their friend. + +"I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, birds. I was wrong. I will not throw sticks at you anymore. I will be nice to you and watch you fly and sing. Can you forgive me?" + +Lily's mom hugged her. She was glad that Lily learned her lesson. + +"That's good, Lily. I'm proud of you. The birds will forgive you if you are kind and respectful to them. They are beautiful and wonderful creatures. You can enjoy them without catching them. Maybe they will even come closer to you if you are gentle and quiet." + +Lily smiled. She put down the stick and sat on the grass. She looked at the sky and saw the birds flying and singing. She felt happy and peaceful. She learned to love the birds without hurting them. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with toys and books. But today, they are bored. They have no new toys and no new books. They look at daddy. Daddy is working on his laptop. He has many papers and numbers. + +"Daddy, can we play with you?" Anna asks. + +"No, sweeties, I have to work. This is very important. You would not understand," daddy says. + +"Why not?" Ben asks. + +"Because this is for grown-ups. It is very hard and very boring. You would not like it," daddy says. + +Anna and Ben are sad. They do not like boring things. They want to have fun. They look around the room. They see a big box. The box is empty. It has no toys or books. But it has a lid. + +"Look, Ben, a box!" Anna says. + +"Let's play with it!" Ben says. + +They run to the box. They lift the lid. They climb inside. They close the lid. They pretend the box is a spaceship. They make noises and buttons.

Ben was calm and said, "It's just a rat. It won't hurt us." + +Lily asked, "How do you know? Maybe it has sharp teeth and claws. Maybe it has germs and diseases. Maybe it will bite us or scratch us." + +Ben shrugged and said, "I don't know. But I don't think so. Rats are afraid of people. They run away when they see us. They only want to find food and hide. They don't want to fight us or make us sick." + +Lily looked at the rat again. It was hiding under a bench. It had small eyes and a long tail. It looked dirty and hungry. Lily felt sorry for the rat. She said, "Maybe you're right. Maybe the rat is not so bad. Maybe it just needs a friend." + +Ben smiled and said, "Maybe. But we can't touch it or feed it. It might be dangerous or sick. We can just watch it from here and be nice to it. Maybe it will like us too." + +Lily nodded and said, "Okay. Let's do that. Let's be nice to the rat." + +They sat on the grass and watched the rat. The rat peeked out from under the bench. It saw Lily and Ben. It saw that they were calm and quiet. It saw that they were not mean or scary. It felt curious and brave. It came out from under the bench. It ran towards Lily and Ben. It stopped in front of them. It sniffed them. It squeaked. + +Lily and Ben were surprised and happy. They said, "Hello, rat. We are Lily and Ben. We are your friends." + +The rat nodded and said, "Hello, Lily and Ben. I am Rat. I am your friend too." +Tom is a cat. He has a long tail. He likes to play with his tail. He thinks his tail is fun. + +One day, Tom sees a big dog. The dog is strong. The dog runs at Tom. Tom is scared. He thinks the dog wants to hurt him. + +Tom runs away. He runs under a car.

It sees the ball. It wants to play with it. It runs to Tom and Lily. It barks loud. + +Tom and Lily are scared. They hug their prize. They do not want to lose it. They say to the dog: "Go away! This is our prize! You cannot have it!" + +The dog does not listen. It jumps at them. It tries to grab the ball. Tom and Lily scream. They need help. + +A man hears them. He is the dog's owner. He is serious. He runs to the dog. He says to the dog: "Stop! Bad dog! Leave them alone!" He pulls the dog away. He says to Tom and Lily: "I am sorry. My dog is naughty. He likes balls. He did not mean to hurt you. Are you okay?" + +Tom and Lily nod. They are okay. They are happy. They still have their prize. They say to the man: "Thank you. You are nice. You protect us." They smile. They go back to playing with their prize. They are careful. They watch out for the dog. They have fun. +Lily loved her kitten, Max. She liked to play with him, feed him, and cuddle him. But sometimes, Max was naughty. He liked to scratch the sofa, knock over the vase, and chase the birds. + +One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, we have to organize your room. It is very messy. You have too many toys and books. We need to put some in the box and give them to other kids who need them." + +Lily felt anxious. She did not want to give away her toys and books. She liked them all. She said, "No, mom. I need them. They are mine." + +Max heard Lily and mom talking. He thought, "Maybe I can help. Maybe I can make Lily happy." He ran to Lily's room and jumped on the bed. He saw a pile of toys and books. He started to push them with his paws. He wanted to organize them. He thought, "This is fun. This is a game." + +But he did not organize them. He made them more messy. He scattered them all over the floor. He tore some pages from the books. He broke some toys. He made a big mess. + +Lily and mom came to Lily's room. They saw the mess. They saw Max. They were shocked. Lily said, "Max, what did you do? You are so bad. You ruined my toys and books. You are not my friend." + +Max felt sad. He did not mean to be bad. He wanted to be good. He wanted to be Lily's friend. He said, "Meow. I'm sorry. I tried to help. I tried to organize. I love you." + +Lily looked at Max. She saw his sad eyes. She felt sorry for him. She said, "It's okay, Max. I love you too. You are my friend. But you have to be careful. You have to be gentle. You have to listen to mom." + +Mom said, "Lily, I'm proud of you. You are very kind. You forgave Max. But you still have to organize your room. You have to choose some toys and books to give away. You have to share with others. You have to be generous." + +Lily nodded. She said, "Okay, mom. I will try. I will organize my room. I will share with others. I will be generous. But can I keep Max?" + +Mom smiled. She said, "Of course, you can keep Max. He is part of our family. He is a good kitten. He just needs some training. And some love." + +Lily hugged Max. Max licked Lily. They were happy. They organized Lily's room together. They played with the toys and books they kept. They gave away the ones they did not need. They made other kids happy. They learned a lesson. They were good. +Timmy had a pet rat named Remy. He loved Remy very much and always played with him. Remy was a very obedient rat. He listened to Timmy and did what he said. Timmy taught Remy to pick up things with his teeth and bring them to him. + +One day, Timmy and Remy went to the park. Timmy brought some cheese for Remy and some bread for himself.

He saw a stick on the ground. He ran to the stick and picked it up. He ran to the dog and bit its tail. The dog yelped and let go of Timmy's hand. It ran away, scared of the brave rat. + +Timmy hugged Remy and thanked him. He said Remy was the best rat in the world. He took Remy back to the bench and gave him the rest of the cheese.

I have a purple hat!" + +Mia sees Tom and laughs. She says, "You are not a king! You are a clown! You have a silly hat!" + +Tom feels angry. He says, "No, you are a clown! You have a gray dress! It is ugly and old!" + +Mia feels hurt. She says, "No, you are ugly and old! You have a big nose and a small mouth!" + +They start to yell and cry. They do not want to play with each other anymore. + +Mom hears them and comes to the room. She sees them with the purple hat and the gray dress. She says, "What is going on?

One day, they find a big white paper on the table. They want to draw on it. + +"I will draw a flower," Anna says. She picks a pink crayon and starts to draw. + +"I will draw a car," Ben says. He picks a blue crayon and starts to draw. + +But Ben draws too big. His car takes up half of the paper. Anna has no space for her flower. + +"Ben, stop!" Anna says. "You are taking all the paper. Leave some for me!" + +"No, I won't!" Ben says. "I need a big car. It is my paper too!" + +They start to argue. They pull the paper from each other. The paper tears. Their pictures are ruined. + +They both cry. They are sad and angry. + +Mom hears them. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the torn paper and the crayons. + +"What happened here?" Mom asks. + +"Ben took all the paper!" Anna says. + +"Anna tore my car!" Ben says. + +Mom sighs. She hugs them both. + +"I'm sorry, my loves," Mom says. "But you can't draw on the same paper if you don't share. You have to take turns or draw together. Why don't you try again on a new paper?" + +She gives them a new paper. She helps them to wipe their tears and noses. She shows them how to draw a flower and a car on the same paper. She draws a sun and a cloud too. + +"Look, now you have a beautiful picture," Mom says. "You can hang it on the fridge." + +Anna and Ben smile. They like their picture. They say sorry to each other. They hug Mom. + +"Thank you, Mom," they say. + +Mom smiles. She takes them to the kitchen. She has made cookies for them. + +"Here, have some cookies," Mom says. "They are delicious." + +Anna and Ben take a cookie each. They bite into them. They are warm and sweet. + +"Mmm, delicious!" they say. + +They are happy. They eat their cookies and look at their picture. They are proud of their picture. They are glad they shared. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park, draw pictures, and share snacks. They had a secret promise: they would always be friends, no matter what. + +One day, Lily saw a new girl in the park. She had long, curly hair and a shiny bike. Lily wanted to be her friend, too. She ran to the new girl and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. What's your name?" + +The new girl smiled and said, "I'm Mia. Do you want to ride my bike?" + +Lily nodded. She loved bikes. She forgot about Ben, who was waiting for her on the swings. She followed Mia to her bike and got on. + +Ben felt sad. He saw Lily and Mia riding away. He thought Lily did not want to be his friend anymore. He got off the swing and walked home. + +The next day, Lily came to the park again. She looked for Mia, but she did not see her. She saw Ben, sitting on a bench. He looked angry. Lily felt sorry. She ran to Ben and said, "Hi, Ben. I'm sorry I left you yesterday. I wanted to try Mia's bike, but I still want to be your friend. Do you forgive me?" + +Ben looked at Lily. He remembered their promise. He nodded. He still wanted to be her friend, too. He said, "It's okay, Lily. I forgive you. But next time, don't forget about me. You are my best friend. You are unique." + +Lily smiled and hugged Ben. She said, "You are my best friend, too. You are unique. Let's play on the swings." + +They ran to the swings and played together. They kept their promise. They were always friends, no matter what. +Tommy and Lily were at the park with their mom. They saw a big tent with a sign that said "Fun Show". Mom said they could go inside and watch. + +They went inside and saw many people sitting on chairs. They also saw a big stage with lights and music. On the stage, there was a clown. He had a red nose, big shoes, and a funny hat. He was doing tricks and jokes. He made everyone laugh. + +But Tommy and Lily did not like the clown. They thought he was scary and loud. They wanted to go back to the park and play. They told mom they did not want to watch the show. Mom said they had to stay until the end. + +The clown saw Tommy and Lily. He thought they looked bored. He wanted to make them happy. He walked to them and said "Hello, little ones. Do you want to join me on the stage? I have a surprise for you." + +Tommy and Lily did not want to join the clown. They were afraid of him. They said "No, thank you. We want to go." They tried to hide behind mom. + +But the clown did not listen. He grabbed their hands and pulled them to the stage. He said "Don't be shy. It will be fun. Look, I have a big cake for you. Do you like cake?" + +Tommy and Lily did not like cake. They liked ice cream. They did not want the cake. They said "No, thank you. We want to go." They tried to get away from the clown. + +But the clown did not listen. He pushed the cake in their faces. He said "Surprise! You have cake on your face. Isn't that funny?" + +Tommy and Lily did not think it was funny. They thought it was messy and rude. They had cake on their face, their hair, and their clothes. They felt sticky and dirty. They cried and screamed. + +Mom saw what the clown did. She was angry and shocked. She ran to the stage and took Tommy and Lily. She said "How dare you do that to my children? You are a bad clown. You should be ashamed of yourself." + +She wiped the cake off their faces. She hugged them and said "I'm sorry, my loves. You are okay. We are going home now." + +She took them out of the tent. She said "Shut the door. We don't want to see that clown ever again." + +Tommy and Lily said "Yes, mom. Shut the door. We hate that clown." + +They shut the door and left. They never went back to the fun show. They only went to the park and played. They were happy. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they fight. One night, they have a big fight over a toy. Anna says, "It is mine!" Ben says, "No, it is mine!" They pull and tug and yell. Mom comes and takes the toy away. She says, "No more toy for you. Go to bed now!" + +Anna and Ben are angry. They go to their beds, but they do not say sorry. They do not hug or kiss. They turn away from each other. They close their eyes and try to sleep. + +Anna has a bad dream. She dreams that Ben is a big monster. He has sharp teeth and claws. He has green slime and bugs on his fur. He smells disgusting. He chases Anna and tries to bite her. Anna is scared. She screams, "Help! Help!" + +Ben hears Anna scream. He wakes up and sees her cry. He feels sorry for her. He jumps out of his bed and runs to her. He hugs her and says, "It is okay, Anna. It is just a dream. I am here. I am not a monster. I am your brother." + +Anna opens her eyes and sees Ben. He is not a monster. He is her brother. He has a kind face and a soft voice. He has no slime or bugs. He smells nice. She feels happy. She hugs him back and says, "Thank you, Ben. I am sorry for the fight. I love you." + +They smile and kiss. They say sorry and forgive. They go back to their beds, but they do not turn away. They hold hands and look at each other.

The angel had wings and a halo and a smile. + +"Look, Lily, an angel!" Tommy said. "Let's go and say hello." + +They ran to the statue and touched it. It was cold and hard. They looked up at the angel's face. + +"Hello, angel," Lily said. "You are very pretty. Do you want to play with us?" + +The angel did not say anything. It did not move. + +"Maybe the angel is sleeping," Tommy said. "Let's wake her up." + +He climbed on the statue and pulled the angel's halo. The halo came off and fell to the ground. Tommy laughed. + +"Oops, I broke the angel's ring," he said. "Don't be mad, angel. It was just a joke." + +The angel did not laugh. The angel did not smile. The angel moved. + +The angel opened her eyes and looked at Tommy. They were red and angry. She opened her mouth and screamed. She grabbed Tommy and threw him off the statue. He landed on the grass and cried. + +Lily was scared. She ran to Tommy and hugged him. She looked at the angel. The angel was not pretty anymore. She was enormous and scary. She had horns and teeth and claws. She was not an angel. She was a monster. + +The monster jumped off the statue and chased Lily and Tommy. They ran and ran, but the monster was faster. She caught them and ate them. They were gone. + +The monster smiled and put the halo back on her head. She pretended to be an angel again. She waited for more children to come and play. +Mia and Leo were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. But their favorite thing was the big tree. The big tree had a hole in it. Mia and Leo thought there was a secret in the hole. They wanted to see what was inside. + +"Let's reach the hole today," Mia said. "We can use the ladder." + +"OK," Leo said. "But be careful. The ladder is old and shaky." + +They took the ladder from the shed and put it against the tree. Mia climbed first. She was brave and curious. She got to the top and looked into the hole. She saw something shiny. + +"Leo, I see something!" she shouted. "It looks like a star!" + +Leo climbed after her. He was excited and nervous. He got to the top and looked into the hole. He saw the shiny thing too. + +"Wow, it's a star!" he said. "How did it get here?" + +They reached their hands into the hole. They wanted to touch the star. But as soon as they did, the star started to glow. It was very bright and warm. It made Mia and Leo feel dizzy. + +"Uh-oh," Mia said. "What's happening?" + +"I don't know," Leo said. "But it feels funny." + +The star lifted them up. It took them out of the hole and into the sky. Mia and Leo flew with the star. They saw the clouds, the birds and the sun. They felt happy and free. + +"Wow, this is amazing!" Mia said. "We found a magic star!" + +"Maybe it's our secret," Leo said. "Maybe it likes us." + +They flew with the star for a long time. They had fun and learned new things. They saw the world from above. They felt like they were dreaming. + +But then the star started to fade. It was getting dark and cold. It was time to go back. + +"Bye, star," Mia said. "Thank you for the ride." + +"Bye, star," Leo said. "We'll miss you." + +The star dropped them gently on the ground. It gave them a wink and a smile. Then it disappeared into the night. + +Mia and Leo hugged each other. They were tired and happy. They had a big adventure. They had a secret. + +They ran back to the shed. They put the ladder away. They went home to their mom and dad. They told them about their day. They left out the part about the star. They kept it as their secret.

It has some fun and interesting stories. Are you ready?" + +Lily nodded and smiled. She liked books with pictures. The tutor opened the book and started to read. Lily listened and looked at the pictures. She liked the first story. It was about a cat and a mouse.

Lily felt hungry and wanted to eat. + +She said to the tutor, "Can we pause the lesson? I want to eat lunch. It smells delicious." + +The tutor looked at her watch and said, "Sure, Lily. We can pause the lesson. We have read two stories already. We can read more next time. You have done a great job today. You deserve a break.

She gave them some coins and told them to spend them wisely. + +Mia and Sam ran to the man and bought some fish. They thought they were being kind. They threw the fish into the otter's pool.

Lily wants to touch it, but Ben says no. + +"That worm is expensive," Ben says. "It is my pet. I found it yesterday and I gave it a name. It is Wiggly." + +Lily does not believe him. She thinks Ben is lying. She wants to see if the worm is really his pet. She reaches out her hand to grab the worm. + +"Stop!" Ben shouts. "You will hurt Wiggly. He is very soft and gentle. He likes to lie on the dirt and make tunnels. He does not like to be picked up." + +Lily does not listen. She thinks Ben is being mean and selfish. She wants to play with the worm too. She pulls the worm from the ground and holds it in her hand. + +The worm is slimy and cold. It wriggles and twists in Lily's hand. Lily feels scared and icky. She drops the worm on the grass and screams. + +"See?" Ben says. "I told you Wiggly is not a toy. He is a living thing. You should be nice to him. Now he is probably sad and hurt." + +Lily feels sorry and ashamed. She did not mean to hurt the worm. She did not know it was alive. She looks at Ben and says, "I'm sorry, Ben. I was wrong. You are not lying. Wiggly is your pet. Can I say sorry to him?" + +Ben nods and smiles. He picks up the worm gently and puts it back on the dirt. He strokes it softly and says, "It's okay, Wiggly. Lily is sorry. She did not know better. She is my friend. She wants to be your friend too." + +The worm stops wriggling and lies still. It seems to calm down and relax. Lily and Ben watch it make a new tunnel. They feel happy and curious. They decide to learn more about worms and how to take care of them. They become good friends with Wiggly and each other. +Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. But today it was very cold and windy. They felt their noses and fingers go numb. They started to shiver. + +"Let's go home, Ben. I'm too cold," Mia said. + +"OK, Mia. But first, let's look at that big folder over there. Maybe it has something fun inside," Ben said. + +He pointed to a folder that was lying on a bench. It was blue and had a sticker of a star on it. It looked ordinary, but Ben was curious. + +They ran to the bench and opened the folder. Inside, they saw many pictures of animals. There were lions, elephants, monkeys and more. They were colorful and shiny. They looked like stickers. + +"Wow, look at these, Mia. They are so pretty. Can we take some?" Ben asked. + +"Sure, Ben. I like the elephant. It has a long nose. And the monkey. It has a funny face. Which ones do you like?" Mia asked. + +Ben looked at the pictures. He liked the lion. It had a big mane. And the zebra. It had stripes. He picked them up and put them in his pocket. + +"Let's go home now, Ben. We can show these to mom and dad. Maybe they will let us stick them on our walls," Mia said. + +They closed the folder and left it on the bench. They ran to their bikes and rode home. They were still cold, but they were happy. They had found a treasure in the park. + +But they did not know that the folder belonged to someone else. It was Mr. Jones, the zookeeper. He had left it on the bench by mistake. He had taken the pictures of the animals to show them to the children at the school. He wanted to teach them about the zoo and the animals. He was looking for his folder everywhere. He was very worried. He hoped that no one had taken his pictures. He did not know that Ben and Mia had them. He did not know that they would soon have a big surprise. +Sara and Ben like to paint. They have many colors of paint and big papers. They set the papers on the floor and dip their brushes in the paint. They make shapes and lines and dots with the paint. + +"Look, Sara, I made a sun!" Ben says, showing his yellow circle with orange rays. + +"That is nice, Ben. I made a flower!" Sara says, showing her red circle with green petals. + +They paint some more and have fun. Then they hear Mom call them. + +"Time for lunch, kids! Come and wash your hands!" + +Sara and Ben put their brushes in a cup of water and look at their paintings. + +"They are very pretty, Sara. Can we hang them on the wall?" Ben asks. + +"Sure, Ben. But we have to wait for them to dry. They are wet now. Let's go and eat. Maybe Mom has some regular food for us. I don't like the green stuff she made yesterday." Sara says. + +They run to the kitchen and see Mom smiling. She has sandwiches and apples for them. + +"Here you go, kids. Some regular food for you. And I saw your paintings. They are very beautiful. You are very good at painting." Mom says. + +"Thank you, Mom. We like to paint. Can we paint more after lunch?" Sara asks. + +"Of course, Sara. But only if you clean up your mess. And don't forget to wash your brushes." Mom says. + +"OK, Mom. We will. We love you, Mom." Ben says. + +They hug Mom and eat their lunch. They are happy. They like to paint. +Lily has a white puppy. His name is Snowy. Lily loves Snowy very much. She likes to play with him, hug him, and feed him. + +One day, Lily and Snowy go to the park. They see a big tree. The tree has many green leaves and brown branches. Lily sees a swing. The swing is made of wood and rope. Lily wants to swing on the swing. + +"Come on, Snowy, let's swing!" Lily says. She runs to the swing. She sits on the wood. She holds the rope. She pushes with her feet. She swings back and forth. She feels happy. + +Snowy follows Lily. He barks. He wants to swing too. He jumps on the wood. He tries to hold the rope. But he is too small. He slips. He falls. He hangs from the rope. He feels scared. + +"Lily, help me!" Snowy cries. Lily hears Snowy. She stops swinging. She looks at Snowy. She sees him hanging from the rope. She feels worried. + +"Oh no, Snowy, don't be afraid!" Lily says. She gets off the swing. She runs to Snowy. She reaches for him. She grabs him. She pulls him up. She hugs him. She kisses him. She says, "I'm sorry, Snowy, are you okay?" + +Snowy licks Lily. He wags his tail. He says, "I'm okay, Lily, thank you. You are my best friend." + +Lily smiles. She says, "You are my best friend too, Snowy. Let's go home. We can play with your toys. We can have a snack. We can cuddle. We can be happy." + +Snowy barks. He agrees. He follows Lily. They leave the park. They go home. They are happy. +Jenny loved jelly. She liked to eat it with a spoon, or make shapes with it, or squish it in her hands. One day, she saw a big bowl of jelly on the table. It was red and shiny and wobbly. Jenny wanted to play with it. + +She climbed on a chair and reached for the bowl. But she was too small and clumsy. She knocked the bowl over and it fell on the floor. The jelly splashed everywhere. It stained the carpet, the walls, and the curtains. It made a sticky mess. + +Jenny heard her mom coming. She was scared and ashamed. She knew she had done a bad thing. She had destroyed the jelly and made a big problem. She hid under the table and hoped her mom would not see her. + +But her mom saw the jelly and the mess. She was angry and sad. She asked Jenny what she had done. Jenny came out from under the table. She looked at her mom with big, sorry eyes. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to play with the jelly. But I destroyed it. I'm embarrassed." + +Her mom sighed. She was not happy, but she loved Jenny. She hugged her and said, "It's okay, Jenny. I know you didn't mean to destroy the jelly. But you have to be careful and ask before you touch things. And you have to help me clean up the mess. Do you understand?" + +Jenny nodded. She said, "I understand, mom. I'm sorry. I love you." She helped her mom clean up the jelly. She learned her lesson. She never played with jelly again. +Lily and Max are twins. They like to help their mom and dad with dinner. Sometimes they set the table. Sometimes they wash the salad. Sometimes they stir the soup. + +Today, mom is making pizza. Lily and Max love pizza. They want to help mom with the dough. Mom says they can support the dough with their hands. They take turns to press and stretch the dough on the pan. They are careful not to tear it. + +Then, mom lets them put cheese and sauce and toppings on the pizza. Lily likes olives and mushrooms. Max likes pepperoni and pineapple. They share and make a half and half pizza. They are happy to work together. + +Mom puts the pizza in the oven. Lily and Max wait and smell the yummy pizza. They are hungry and excited. When the pizza is ready, mom takes it out and cuts it into slices. She says they did a great job with the pizza. They thank mom and give her a hug. + +They sit down with mom and dad and enjoy their dinner. They tell mom and dad how they helped with the pizza. Mom and dad say they are proud of them. They say they are a great team. Lily and Max smile and eat their pizza. They think it is the best pizza ever. +Mia and Sam liked to play pirates. They had a big box that was their ship. They put a flag on it and some toys inside. They sailed to many places and had fun. + +One day, they saw a pretty port. It had many boats and houses and trees. Mia wanted to go there and look for treasure. Sam wanted to stay on their ship and fight the bad pirates. + +"Let's go to the port, Sam!" Mia said. "Maybe we can find gold or jewels or candy!" + +"No, Mia, we can't!" Sam said. "The bad pirates will see us and catch us and take our ship!" + +Mia and Sam argued. They did not agree. They were not happy. + +They did not see the big dog that came near their box. The dog was curious. It smelled the toys and the flag. It wanted to play. + +The dog jumped on the box. The box broke. The toys and the flag fell out. Mia and Sam screamed. + +They ran away from the dog. They were scared. They forgot about the port and the bad pirates. They only wanted to be safe. + +They paused behind a tree. They hugged each other. They were sorry for arguing. They were friends again. + +"Are you okay, Mia?" Sam asked. + +"Yes, Sam, I'm okay. Are you?" Mia asked. + +"Yes, Mia, I'm okay. I'm sorry I was mean to you. You can choose where we go next." Sam said. + +"I'm sorry too, Sam. You can choose too. We can share." Mia said. + +They smiled. They were happy again. They looked for a new box. They wanted to play pirates again. They hoped the dog would not find them. +Lila and Ben went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and birds. They liked the animals, but they wanted to see the seals. Mom said they had to wait until the show started. + +They found a spot near the pool where the seals were. They saw one seal swimming and jumping. It looked happy and smart. Lila and Ben clapped and cheered. Then, a man came out with a big ball. He threw the ball to the seal, and the seal caught it with its nose. The man said, "This is Sunny, the star of our show. She can do many tricks with this ball. Watch this!" + +The man told Sunny to roll the ball on her nose, then toss it in the air, then catch it again. Sunny did as he said. The man said, "Wow, Sunny, you are amazing! Now, for the final trick, can you make the ball vanish?" He whispered something to Sunny, and Sunny nodded. She tossed the ball high in the air, then dived into the water. The ball fell into the pool, but Sunny did not come out. The man said, "Where did Sunny go? She made the ball and herself vanish! How did she do that?" + +Lila and Ben were confused. They looked at the pool, but they could not see Sunny or the ball. They wondered if Sunny was really gone. Then, they heard a splash. They turned around and saw Sunny on the other side of the pool, with the ball in her mouth. She was smiling and waving. The man said, "There she is! She tricked us all! She swam under the water and came out on the other side. She is a very clever seal. Give her a big hand, everyone!" + +Lila and Ben clapped and laughed. They realized that Sunny did not really vanish. She just played a fake trick. They thought it was funny and fun. They learned that some things are not what they seem, and that sometimes, it is good to have a sense of humor. They enjoyed the rest of the show, and thanked Sunny and the man for making them happy. +Tom and Sam liked to play with trains. They had many trains of different colors and sizes. They made tracks on the floor and pretended to be drivers. Sometimes they made the trains crash and laugh. + +One day, they saw a big train outside their window. It was red and shiny and made a loud noise. They wanted to see it up close. They put on their shoes and ran outside. They did not tell their mom where they were going. + +They followed the train to the bridge. The bridge was high and had water under it. They climbed on the bridge and saw the train stop. They heard a man say, "Help! Help! I'm stuck in the train!" They looked and saw a man in the front of the train. He looked scared. + +Tom and Sam wanted to rescue the man. They ran to the train and tried to open the door. It was locked. They banged on the window and shouted, "Don't worry, we'll help you!" The man saw them and said, "No, no, go away! It's dangerous!" + +But Tom and Sam did not listen. They kept trying to open the door. They did not see the other train coming from the other side. It was fast and black and made a louder noise. It did not stop. It hit the red train with a big crash. Tom and Sam flew off the bridge and fell into the water. They did not know how to swim. They sank and did not come up. + +Their mom heard the noise and ran to the window. She saw the smoke and the fire and the water. She did not see Tom and Sam. She felt guilty and sad. She cried and cried. She wished she had watched them better. She wished they had not gone to the bridge. She wished they had not played with trains. +Sara and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant seeds. They hoped the seeds would grow into flowers and fruits. + +One day, they found a big pot in the shed. It was brown and round and had a hole at the bottom. Sara and Tom decided to use it for their seeds. + +"Let's put some dirt in the pot and plant our seeds," Sara said. + +"OK, but we need to water them too," Tom said. + +They filled the pot with dirt and planted their seeds. They watered them with a hose and put the pot in a sunny spot. + +Every day, they checked on their pot. They waited and waited for the seeds to grow. They believed that their pot would have the best flowers and fruits ever. + +One morning, they saw something green poking out of the dirt. They ran to the pot and looked closely. They saw tiny leaves and stems. They were so happy and excited. + +"Look, look, our seeds are growing!" Sara shouted. + +"Wow, they are! They are so pretty and strong!" Tom said. + +They hugged each other and danced around the pot. They were very proud of their pot and their seeds. They couldn't wait to see what they would become. +Anna and Ben are playing with their dad's tools. They like to pretend they are builders and fix things. They find a big nail and a hammer. Anna wants to put the nail in the wall. + +"Look, Ben, I can put the nail in the wall like dad!" Anna says. She holds the nail and the hammer. + +"No, Anna, don't do that!" Ben says. "That is not a good idea. You can hurt yourself or make a hole in the wall. Dad will be angry." + +Anna does not listen to Ben. She thinks she is very clever and strong. She hits the nail with the hammer. But the nail is too big and the wall is too hard. The nail does not go in. It bounces back and hits Anna in the nose. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna cries. She drops the nail and the hammer. She holds her nose. It hurts a lot and it bleeds a little. + +Ben runs to Anna and hugs her. He is sorry for her. He says, "Are you okay, Anna? I told you not to put the nail in the wall. It is dangerous." + +Anna is sad and scared. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. I was silly. I wanted to be like dad. But I am not. I am just a little girl. I need a band-aid and a kiss." + +Ben helps Anna to go to their mom. Their mom is serious. She says, "What happened, Anna? Why did you put a nail in the wall? You know you are not allowed to play with dad's tools. They are not toys. They can hurt you." + +Anna tells her mom what she did. She says she is sorry. She says she learned her lesson. She will not play with dad's tools again. She will play with her dolls and her books. + +Mom cleans Anna's nose and puts a band-aid and a kiss on it. She says, "I'm glad you are okay, Anna. But you have to be careful and listen to Ben. He is your big brother and he loves you. He wants to protect you." + +Anna hugs her mom and says, "I love you, mom. And I love you, Ben. Thank you for being nice to me. Can we play together now?" + +Mom smiles and says, "Yes, you can. But no more nails, okay?" + +Anna and Ben nod and say, "Okay, mom. No more nails." They go to their room and play together. They are happy. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big tree house that their dad made for them. They had many toys and books in the tree house, but their favorite thing was a big box of costumes. They liked to dress up as different animals and pretend to have adventures. + +One day, they decided to be rats. They put on gray clothes and masks with whiskers and tails. They crawled on the floor and made squeaky noises. They looked for cheese and nuts in the kitchen. They scared their mom and made her laugh. + +"Be careful, you little rats," their mom said. "Don't go near the shed. There might be a real rat there, and he won't like you." + +Lily and Ben nodded, but they were curious. They wanted to see the real rat. They thought he might be their friend. They sneaked out of the house and ran to the shed. They opened the door and peeked inside. + +It was dark and dusty. There were many things piled up in the shed. They saw a bike, a lawn mower, a toolbox, and a pile of old clothes. They also saw a hole in the wall. They heard a rustle and a sniff. + +"Hello?" Lily said in a small voice. "Is anyone there?" + +A big, black rat came out of the hole. He had sharp teeth and red eyes. He looked angry and hungry. He saw Lily and Ben and growled. + +"Who are you?" he said. "What are you doing in my home?" + +Lily and Ben were scared. They realized they had made a mistake. They were not rats. They were children. They had no cheese or nuts to offer. They had nothing to say. + +They turned around and ran out of the shed. They slammed the door behind them. They ran back to the house and climbed up to the tree house. They took off their costumes and hugged each other. + +"That was incredible," Ben said. "We almost got eaten by a real rat." + +"Let's never do that again," Lily said. "Let's be something else next time." + +They agreed. They looked at the box of costumes and picked out new ones. They decided to be birds. They put on colorful feathers and beaks. They flew around the garden and sang. They were happy and safe. They had learned their lesson. +Anna likes to taste new things. She likes to taste sweet things, like cake and candy. She likes to taste sour things, like lemon and yogurt. She likes to taste salty things, like chips and cheese. But she does not like to taste bitter things, like soap and medicine. + +One day, Anna finds a brush in the bathroom. She wonders what it tastes like. She puts it in her mouth and bites it. It tastes very bad. It tastes like hair and dirt and toothpaste. She spits it out and makes a face. She does not like the brush. + +But then she sees another brush. It is pink and shiny and has a picture of a princess on it. She thinks it must taste better than the other brush. She grabs it and puts it in her mouth. But it tastes worse. It tastes like soap and water and bubbles. She spits it out and coughs. She does not like the pink brush. + +The pink brush belongs to her sister, Lily. Lily is older than Anna and she likes to brush her hair every day. She keeps her brush in a special place on the shelf. She does not like anyone to touch her brush. When she sees Anna with her brush, she gets very angry. She yells at Anna and takes her brush away. She tells Anna that she is naughty and that she should not taste things that are not food. + +Anna feels sad and sorry. She did not mean to make Lily angry. She did not know that the brush was not food. She just wanted to taste something new. She says sorry to Lily and gives her a hug. She promises to not taste her brush again. Lily forgives her and hugs her back. She tells her that she loves her and that she can taste some of her candy instead. Anna smiles and says thank you. She likes candy better than brushes. +Tom and Lily were going to stay in a hotel with their mom and dad. They were very excited to see the big building with many rooms and a pool. They packed their bags and got in the car. + +"Are we there yet?" Tom asked. + +"Soon, honey. Just a little more," Mom said. + +Lily looked out the window and saw many cars and people. She wondered what the hotel would look like. + +They arrived at the hotel and checked in. The man at the desk gave them a key and told them their room number. It was on the tenth floor. + +"Wow, that's so high!" Tom said. + +They took the elevator and found their room. It was very small. There was only one bed, a table, a chair, and a TV. + +"Where are we going to sleep?" Lily asked. + +"You two can share the bed, and we'll sleep on the couch," Dad said. + +"But I don't want to share the bed with Tom. He snores and kicks," Lily said. + +"I don't want to share the bed with Lily. She hogs the blanket and talks in her sleep," Tom said. + +They both resisted and started to cry. + +"Please, kids, don't make a fuss. It's only for one night. We couldn't afford a bigger room," Mom said. + +She tried to calm them down and make them happy. She told them they could watch TV, play with their toys, and go to the pool later. + +"Maybe we'll find some new friends there," she said. + +She hoped they would have fun and forget about the small room. She didn't know that the pool was closed for maintenance, and that the TV only had one channel. She also didn't know that the hotel was next to a train station, and that the trains would make a lot of noise all night. She would soon find out. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a lot of fun with the flowers, the bugs and the birds. One day, they saw a new sight in the garden. It was a small green plant with a tiny red bud. + +"What is that?" Anna asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe it is a new flower," Ben said. + +They decided to watch the plant every day and see what would happen. They were very curious and excited. + +After a few days, the bud started to open and show a beautiful red color. It was a rose! Anna and Ben were amazed by the sight. They wanted to touch it and smell it. + +"Can we pick it?" Anna asked. + +"No, we can't. It will hurt the plant and the flower. We have to let it grow and be happy," Ben said. + +They agreed to leave the rose alone and just admire it from a distance. They learned to respect the plant and its life. They also learned that some things take time and patience to grow and show their beauty. They felt proud of their new sight and their new lesson. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play games together. Today, they want to play a game with a ball. They go to the park with their moms. + +"Look, there is a big field. We can move a lot and throw the ball," Tom says. + +"Yes, let's go there. Maybe we can find other kids to play with," Lily says. + +They run to the field with their ball. They see some kids playing soccer. They ask if they can join. + +"Sorry, we have no space. The game is full," one kid says. + +Tom and Lily are sad. They look for another place to play. + +"Hey, what about that hill? We can roll the ball down and catch it," Lily says. + +"That sounds fun. Let's try it," Tom says. + +They go to the hill with their ball. They take turns to roll the ball down and run after it. They laugh and have fun. + +"Wow, this is a great game. I like it," Tom says. + +"Me too. And the best part is, it is always available. We don't need anyone else to play," Lily says. + +They hug and smile. They are happy. They play until their moms call them. They say goodbye to the hill and the ball. They promise to play again soon. +Lily and Tom were eager to see the stars at night. They had a big book with pictures of stars and planets. They wanted to find them in the sky. + +"Look, Lily, there is the big bear!" Tom said, pointing to a group of stars. "And there is the little bear!" + +"Wow, they are so pretty!" Lily said. "Can we touch them?" + +"No, they are too far away," Tom said. "But we can make a wish on them. Maybe they will come true." + +Lily and Tom closed their eyes and wished very hard. They wished for a big cake, a new toy, and a pony. + +"Did you make your wish?" Tom asked. + +"Yes, I did," Lily said. "Now we have to shake the book to make the stars fall." + +Lily and Tom grabbed the book and shook it with all their might. They hoped to see the stars come out of the pages and land on their hands. + +But they shook the book too hard. The pages tore and flew away in the wind. The pictures of the stars and planets were gone. + +"Oh no, what have we done?" Lily cried. + +"We ruined the book!" Tom said. "Mom and Dad will be so angry!" + +Lily and Tom felt very sorry and sad. They learned that they should not be greedy and careless. They should be happy with what they have and take good care of their things. +Sara was very sleepy. She had played all day with her toys and her friends. She yawned and rubbed her eyes. She wanted to go to bed and cuddle with her teddy bear. + +But first, she had to eat her dinner. Mama had made her favorite soup. It was warm and yummy. Sara sat on her chair and picked up her spoon. She dipped it in the soup and brought it to her mouth. + +"Careful, Sara, it's hot," Mama said. "Blow on it first." + +Sara blew on her spoon and then tasted the soup. It was good. She smiled and ate some more. She liked her spoon. It was shiny and smooth. It had a picture of a flower on it. It was her spoon. It belonged to her. + +But then, she saw something on the table. It was another spoon. It looked like her spoon, but it had a picture of a star on it. It was Timmy's spoon. Timmy was her baby brother. He was in his crib, sleeping. + +Sara wanted to see the star spoon. She put down her spoon and reached for the star spoon. She grabbed it and held it in her hand. It was also shiny and smooth. But it was not her spoon. It belonged to Timmy. + +"Sara, what are you doing?" Mama asked. "That's Timmy's spoon. Give it back to him." + +Sara looked at Mama. She looked at the star spoon. She looked at her flower spoon. She felt confused. She liked both spoons. She wanted both spoons. + +"No," Sara said. "I want it. It's mine." + +Mama shook her head. She took the star spoon from Sara's hand and put it back on the table. She gave Sara her flower spoon and said, "Sara, you have to share. You can't take things that don't belong to you. That's not nice. How would you feel if Timmy took your spoon?" + +Sara thought about it. She imagined Timmy holding her flower spoon and smiling. She imagined her spoon gone. She felt sad and angry. She didn't want Timmy to take her spoon. She loved her spoon. + +"I would feel bad," Sara said. "I'm sorry, Mama. I'm sorry, Timmy." + +Mama smiled and hugged Sara. She said, "That's okay, Sara. I'm glad you understand. Now, finish your soup and then go to bed. You're very sleepy, aren't you?" + +Sara nodded. She ate her soup with her flower spoon. She felt happy and sleepy. She said goodnight to Mama and Timmy. She went to her bed and cuddled with her teddy bear. She closed her eyes and fell asleep. She dreamed of spoons and stars and flowers. +Lena and Max are playing in the garden. They see a big red car in the street. The car has shiny wheels and a loud horn. Lena and Max admire the car. They want to ride in it. + +"Wow, look at that car!" Lena says. "It is so pretty and fast!" + +"Yes, it is!" Max agrees. "Do you think we can go inside?" + +They run to the car and knock on the window. A man opens the door. He has a smile and a bottle of wine in his hand. He is going to a party. + +"Hello, kids," the man says. "Do you like my car?" + +"Yes, we do!" Lena and Max say. "Can we ride with you?" + +The man laughs. He shakes his head. He says, "I'm sorry, but you can't. This car is not fit for you. It is too big and too dangerous. You need a car seat and a seat belt. And you are too young for wine. Wine is for grown-ups only." + +Lena and Max are sad. They want to have fun in the car. They want to try the wine. They think the man is mean. + +"Please, please, let us in!" they beg. "We will be good and quiet!" + +The man says, "No, no, you can't. You have to go back to your garden. Your parents will be worried. And I have to go to the party. Goodbye, kids." + +He closes the door and starts the car. He drives away. Lena and Max watch him go. They are angry and disappointed. They don't admire the car anymore. They think it is ugly and noisy. They go back to their garden. They play with their toys. They forget about the car and the wine. They are happy again. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and watch TV. One day, they watch a show about numbers. The show has a purple puppet that teaches them how to count. + +"Look, Ben, the puppet has zero fingers!" Lily says. She points at the TV. + +"Zero? What is zero?" Ben asks. He does not know this word. + +"Zero is nothing. It means you have no fingers, no toes, no apples, no anything," Lily explains. She shows him her fingers and toes. + +"Oh, I see. Zero is like a circle. It is round and empty," Ben says. He draws a circle in the air with his finger. + +"Yes, that's right. Zero is a circle. And one is a line. And two is two lines. And so on," Lily says. She counts with her fingers. + +They watch the show and learn more numbers. They have fun and clap their hands. The purple puppet is happy and says goodbye. + +"Bye, puppet! Thank you for teaching us numbers!" Lily and Ben say. They smile and hug each other. They are proud of what they learned. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big book with many words and pictures. They want to look at the book together. + +"Can I see the book?" Lily asks Tom. + +"Yes, you can see the book. But I want to see it first," Tom says. + +He takes the book and opens it. He sees a word he likes. It is "cat". He likes cats. He points to the word and says, "Look, Lily, this is cat. Cat is a nice word." + +Lily tries to see the word, but Tom holds the book too close to his face. She cannot see the word. She feels sad. + +"Tom, can you share the book with me? I want to see the word too," Lily says. + +"No, I cannot share the book with you. This is my book. I found it first. You cannot see the word. It is my word," Tom says. + +He is selfish. He does not want to share the book or the word with Lily. He thinks only of himself. + +Lily feels angry. She does not like Tom's selfishness. She wants to see the book and the word too. She thinks Tom is not a good friend. + +She grabs the book from Tom's hands. She says, "No, this is not your book. This is our book. We found it together. You cannot take the book and the word from me. That is not nice. You are selfish." + +Tom and Lily start to fight over the book. They pull and tug and shout. They tear the book and the word. They make a big mess. + +They hear a loud voice. It is their teacher. She sees the book and the word on the floor. She sees Tom and Lily fighting. She is angry. + +"Tom and Lily, what are you doing? Why are you fighting over the book and the word? Why are you selfish? You should share the book and the word with each other. You should be nice and kind. You should be friends," she says. + +She makes Tom and Lily say sorry to each other. She makes them pick up the book and the word. She makes them hug and smile. + +Tom and Lily feel sorry. They realize they were selfish. They realize they hurt the book and the word. They realize they hurt each other. + +They say sorry to the book and the word. They say sorry to their teacher.

They look at the book and the word together. They learn new words and pictures. They have fun. They are happy. +One day, a sailor went to the sea with his boat. He liked to catch fish and sing songs. He was happy and brave. + +But he did not listen to the weather report. The weather report said there was a big storm coming. The storm was bad and scary. It made the sea angry and wild. + +The sailor saw the storm and was afraid. He tried to turn his boat around, but it was too late. The storm was too strong. It broke his boat and threw him into the water. + +He cried for help, but no one heard him. He was cold and wet and hungry. He wished he had listened to the weather report. + +Then he saw a big fish. The fish was friendly and kind. It swam to him and said, "Hello, sailor. Why are you in the water? You look sad and tired." + +The sailor said, "Hello, fish. I am in the water because of the storm. The storm broke my boat and I have no way to go home. I am sad and tired and hungry." + +The fish said, "I am sorry, sailor. That is very bad. But I can help you. I can take you to the shore. You can find a new boat and go home. And I can give you some of my fish friends to eat. They are yummy and good for you." + +The sailor said, "Thank you, fish. You are very nice and generous. I will go with you and eat your fish friends. They are yummy and good for me." + +So the fish took the sailor to the shore. He gave him some of his fish friends to eat. The sailor ate them and felt better. He thanked the fish again and said goodbye. + +He found a new boat and went home. He was happy and grateful. He learned to listen to the weather report. He also learned to be kind to the fish. He never forgot his fish friend who saved him. + +The end. + +Moral value: The story teaches the value of listening, being grateful, and being kind. +Sara and Ben are best friends. They like to play together at school. They have a lot of fun with the toys, the books and the puzzles. They are playful and happy. + +One day, they hear a loud bell. It is time to go outside.

Follow me and be careful." She leads them to the playground. Sara and Ben see the slides, the swings and the snowmen. They are excited and run to play. + +They slide down the slide and laugh. They swing high and feel the wind. They make snowballs and throw them gently. They help each other make a big snowman. They give him a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They are proud and happy. + +They hear the bell again. It is time to go inside. They hurry to say goodbye to their snowman. They hug him and promise to come back.

She had many books in her bookcase. She liked to look at the pictures and hear the stories. But she did not like to share her books with anyone. + +One day, her cousin Max came to visit. He saw the bookcase and wanted to read some books too. He asked Lily if he could borrow a book. Lily said no. She said they were her books and she did not want to share. + +Max was sad. He did not understand why Lily was so mean. He tried to take a book anyway. Lily got angry. She yelled at Max and pushed him away. She said he was a bad cousin and she did not like him. + +Max cried. He ran to his aunt and told her what happened. His aunt was not happy. She went to talk to Lily. She told Lily that she was being selfish and rude. She said that sharing was good and kind.

She said she wanted to keep all her books. She demanded that her aunt leave her alone. + +Her aunt was very disappointed. She said that Lily was being disobedient and ungrateful. She said that Lily had to go to her room and think about what she did. She said that Lily could not read any books until she learned to share and be nice. + +Lily was shocked.

Sometimes they pretend to be fish or sharks or dolphins. + +One day, they go to the pool with their mom and dad. But when they get there, they see a big sign. The sign says "Pool closed". Anna and Ben are sad and confused. Why is the pool closed? They want to swim. + +Mom and dad explain that the pool is closed because it needs to be cleaned. There is dirt and leaves and bugs in the water. It is not safe to swim in the pool. They say they will find another pool to go to. They call a taxi to take them there. + +The taxi comes and they get in. The taxi is yellow and has a meter and a radio. The driver is nice and says hello. He asks them where they want to go. Mom and dad tell him the name of another pool. The driver says okay and starts the car. + +The taxi drives on the road. It is very busy and noisy. There are many cars and buses and trucks and bikes. They honk and beep and zoom. The taxi has to stop and go and turn and wait. Anna and Ben are bored and uncomfortable. They want to get out of the taxi. They want to swim. + +They look out the window and see a big lake. The lake is blue and calm and shiny. They see people and boats and ducks and geese. They see a beach and a playground and a picnic area. They think the lake looks fun and pretty. They ask mom and dad if they can swim in the lake. + +Mom and dad look at the lake and smile. They say yes, they can swim in the lake. They tell the driver to stop at the lake. The driver says okay and stops the taxi. They pay the driver and say thank you. They get out of the taxi and run to the lake. + +They change into their swimsuits and goggles and run to the water. They jump in the water and swim. They splash and kick and have fun. They pretend to be fish or sharks or dolphins. They are happy and excited. They forget about the pool and the taxi and the road.

One day, they find a big box in the attic. It is full of old things that belong to their grandma. + +"Look, Tom, a shiny ball!" Mia says, picking up a metal sphere with wires and buttons. "It is like a doll's head, but different." + +"Let me see, Mia," Tom says, grabbing the ball from her. "It is not a doll's head, it is a toy. Maybe it can make sparks, like a car." + +Tom pushes a button on the ball, and nothing happens. He pushes another button, and still nothing happens. He pushes all the buttons, and the ball makes a loud beep. + +"Ow, Tom, that hurts my ears!" Mia says, covering her ears. + +"Sorry, Mia," Tom says, putting the ball down. "This toy is no fun. Let's find something else." + +They look around the box, and see a lot of old clothes, books, and pictures. They also see a small bottle with a cork and a label. The label has words on it, but they cannot read them. + +"What is this, Mia?" Tom says, holding the bottle. + +"I don't know, Tom," Mia says, looking at the bottle. "Maybe it is perfume, like mom's." + +Tom pulls the cork out of the bottle, and smells it. It smells bad, like rotten eggs. + +"Yuck, Tom, that is not perfume, that is stinky!" Mia says, making a face. + +Tom agrees, and puts the cork back in the bottle. He rubs the bottle with his hand, hoping to make the smell go away. + +Suddenly, a puff of smoke comes out of the bottle, and a voice says, "Hello, I am a genie. You have rubbed my bottle, and now I will grant you three wishes." + +Tom and Mia are very surprised, and very scared. They drop the bottle, and run out of the attic, screaming. They do not want to play with the old things anymore. They want to play with their cars and dolls, and forget about the genie. But the genie is not happy. He wants to give them their wishes, and he follows them downstairs. He is going to make their day very different. +Ben and Lily were playing with their dolls. They liked to dress them up in different clothes and pretend they were going to a party. Ben had a blue dress and a pink hat for his doll. Lily had a yellow skirt and a green shirt for hers. + +"Look, my doll is so pretty!" Lily said, showing her doll to Ben. + +"Yes, she is. But my doll is prettier!" Ben said, holding his doll up. + +"No, she is not! Her hat does not match her dress!" Lily said, pointing at Ben's doll. + +"Yes, it does! It is pink and blue, like the sky and the flowers!" Ben said, defending his doll. + +They started to argue about whose doll was prettier. They did not notice that their mom was watching them from the door. + +"Kids, stop fighting. It does not matter what clothes your dolls wear. They are both lovely. Why don't you try to attach some stickers or ribbons to them? That would make them even more fun!" Mom said, smiling. + +"Stickers? Ribbons? Where are they?" Ben and Lily asked, forgetting their argument. + +"Here, I have some in this box. You can use them to decorate your dolls. But be careful, do not make a mess!" Mom said, giving them the box. + +Ben and Lily thanked Mom and took the box. They opened it and found many stickers and ribbons of different colors and shapes. They were excited to try them on their dolls. They attached stars, hearts, flowers, and animals to their clothes. They also tied ribbons around their hats, necks, and wrists. They made their dolls look very colorful and fancy. + +"Wow, look at our dolls now! They are so beautiful!" Lily said, admiring her doll. + +"Yes, they are. And they are friends, too. They like each other's clothes!" Ben said, looking at his doll. + +They hugged their dolls and each other. They were happy and proud of their work. They showed their dolls to Mom, who praised them for being creative and kind. They played with their dolls until they were tired. Then they put them to bed and said good night. They also went to bed and fell asleep, dreaming of their dolls and their party. +Lily and Ben are going to visit their grandma. They have to pack their bags. Lily likes to pack her toys and books. Ben likes to pack his file. His file has many papers with drawings and numbers. He likes to show his file to grandma. + +"Ben, why do you pack your file?" Lily asks. "It is boring. You should pack your teddy bear. He is soft and cuddly." + +"No, Lily. My file is not boring. It is smart. I want to show grandma how smart I am. She will be proud of me." Ben says. + +Lily and Ben finish packing their bags. They go to the car with their mom and dad. They are happy to see grandma. They drive for a long time. They see many trees and houses and cars. + +But then something bad happens. A big truck hits their car. Their car goes crazy. It spins and flips and crashes. Lily and Ben scream. Their mom and dad scream. Their bags fly out of the car. Lily's toys and books scatter on the road. Ben's file tears and burns. + +Lily and Ben are hurt. Their mom and dad are hurt. They go to the hospital. They have many cuts and bruises and broken bones. They cry and hurt. Grandma comes to see them. She is sad and scared. She hugs them and kisses them. She says she loves them. + +But she never sees Ben's file. She never knows how smart he is. She never tells him she is proud of him. Ben is sad. He wishes he packed his teddy bear. He wishes he was soft and cuddly. He wishes he was not in the hospital. He wishes he was not in the car. He wishes he was not in the story. +Tommy loved his new toy car. It was red and shiny and made a loud vroom sound when he pushed it. He wanted to show it to his friend Lily, who lived next door. He put on his shoes and coat and ran outside with his toy car. + +Lily was playing with her doll in the yard. She saw Tommy coming and smiled. She liked Tommy. He was fun and kind. She wanted to see his toy car. She put down her doll and ran to meet him. + +"Look, Lily, look!" Tommy said, holding up his toy car. "It's my new toy. It's red and shiny and makes a loud vroom sound. Do you want to play with it?" + +Lily nodded. She reached out her hand to touch the toy car. But Tommy pulled it away. He wanted to play with it by himself. He was afraid Lily would break it or lose it. He said, "No, Lily, no. It's my toy. You can't play with it. Go play with your doll." + +Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted to play with the toy car too. She liked toy cars. She didn't like dolls. She said, "That's not nice, Tommy. That's not fair. You should share your toy. Sharing is good. Sharing is fun. Please, Tommy, please. Let me play with your toy car." + +Tommy felt bad. He saw Lily's sad and angry face. He remembered that Lily was his friend. He liked Lily. He didn't want to make her sad and angry. He wanted to make her happy and smile. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry. You're right. Sharing is good. Sharing is fun. Here, Lily, here. You can play with my toy car. I'll play with your doll." + +Lily smiled. She took the toy car from Tommy. She said, "Thank you, Tommy. Thank you. You're a good friend. You're a good sharer. Here, Tommy, here. You can play with my doll. She's nice and soft and makes a cute sound. Do you want to hear it?" + +Tommy nodded. He took the doll from Lily. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. You're welcome. You're a good friend. You're a good encourager. Yes, Lily, yes. I want to hear it." + +They played together with the toy car and the doll. They made loud vroom sounds and cute sounds. They laughed and had fun. They were happy and smiley. They were good friends. They were good sharers. They were good encouragers. +Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big fly with shiny wings. They want to catch it and look at it. + +"Come here, fly!" Tom says. He runs after the fly with a net. Lily follows him. + +The fly is fast and smart. It flies over the swings, the slide and the sandbox. Tom and Lily cannot catch it. They are tired and sad. + +Then they see a big dog. The dog is barking and running. It wants to play with the fly too. But the dog is dangerous. It can bite and hurt the fly. + +"Go away, dog!" Lily shouts. She waves her arms and tries to scare the dog. Tom does the same. + +The dog stops and looks at them. It is confused. It does not understand why they are angry. It just wants to have fun. + +The fly sees the chance. It flies away from the dog and lands on Lily's shoulder. It is safe and happy. + +"Wow, you are brave, fly!" Tom says. He smiles and touches the fly gently. The fly tickles his finger. + +"Thank you, Tom and Lily!" the fly says. It has a small voice. "You saved me from the dog. You are my friends." + +Tom and Lily are surprised and happy. They can hear the fly talk. They have never heard a fly talk before. + +"You are welcome, fly!" Lily says. She smiles and hugs the fly. "You are our friend too." + +Tom and Lily are proud and happy. They have a new friend. They applaud and cheer for the fly. The fly flaps its wings and makes a sound. It is like music. + +They play together in the park. They have a lot of fun. They forget about the dog. The dog finds a ball and plays with it. It forgets about the fly. Everyone is happy. The end. +One day, a little girl named Lily went to the park with her mom. She saw a big slide and wanted to go on it. But there was a boy in front of her who was taking a long time. He was wearing a crown and a cape and he said he was the king of the slide. + +"Move, king, I want to slide too!" Lily said. + +"No, you can't. This is my slide. I am the king and you are just a girl. Go away!" the boy said. + +Lily was angry. She did not like the boy. She thought he was mean and rude. She wanted to kick him and make him fall. But she remembered what her mom had told her. "Lily, you should not kick or hurt anyone. That is not nice. You should be kind and share. If someone is mean to you, you can tell them how you feel or ask for help." + +Lily decided to listen to her mom. She did not kick the boy. She said, "You are not the king of the slide. You are just a boy with a crown and a cape. You should share the slide with others. It is more fun to play together. And I am not just a girl. I am a queen. I have a crown too. See?" She showed him her hairband with a flower on it. + +The boy looked at Lily's hairband. He thought it was interesting. He had never seen a flower crown before. He said, "You are a queen? That is cool. I like your crown. It is pretty. Do you want to slide with me? We can be king and queen of the slide." + +Lily smiled. She said, "Yes, I want to slide with you. We can be friends. But we have to take turns and let others slide too. OK?" + +The boy nodded. He said, "OK. That sounds fair. I am sorry I was mean to you. You are nice." + +Lily and the boy slid down the slide together. They had fun. They shared and played with other kids too. Lily's mom was proud of her. She said, "Lily, you did a good job. You were kind and respectful. You did not kick or hurt anyone. You made a new friend. You are a good queen." + +Lily hugged her mom. She said, "Thank you, mom. You are a good mom. I love you." + +The end. +Lila liked to play in the garden. She liked to look for bugs and flowers. One day, she saw a lizard on a rock. It was green and had a long tail. Lila wanted to touch it. + +"Hello, lizard," she said. "Can I be your friend?" + +The lizard did not move. It looked at Lila with its small eyes. + +"Please, don't be scared," Lila said. "I won't hurt you. I just want to see you." + +She reached out her hand slowly. The lizard did not run away. It let Lila touch its back. It felt smooth and warm. + +"Wow, you are so cool," Lila said. "Can I hold you?" + +She lifted the lizard gently. It did not bite or scratch. It curled its tail around Lila's finger. + +"You are so nice," Lila said. "Do you want to come with me?" + +She walked to the house with the lizard in her hand. She wanted to show it to her mom and dad. + +"Look, mom, look, dad," she said. "I found a lizard in the garden. He is my friend. Can I keep him?" + +Mom and dad looked at the lizard. They smiled. + +"He is very cute," mom said. "But he is also a wild animal. He needs to live in his home, not in ours. He needs to eat bugs and sunbathe on rocks. He will not be happy here." + +Lila felt sad. She liked the lizard. She wanted to play with him more. + +"But he likes me," she said. "He let me hold him. He did not run away." + +Dad knelt down and hugged Lila. + +"I know, sweetie," he said. "He likes you because you are gentle and kind. But he also needs to be free and safe. You can visit him in the garden, but you cannot take him inside. That is the best way to be his friend. Can you accept that?" + +Lila thought for a moment. She looked at the lizard. He looked at her. + +"Okay," she said. "I can accept that. I will let him go. But I will come back and see him tomorrow. And the next day. And the next day." + +She kissed the lizard on the head. She put him back on the rock. He waved his tail at her. + +"Bye, lizard," she said. "Thank you for being my friend." + +She ran back to the house with mom and dad. She was happy. She had a new friend in the garden. A high and green lizard. +Lily was a unique girl. She liked to wear different colors and make funny faces. She also liked to eat different things for lunch. She did not like sandwiches or soup or salad. She liked noodles and cheese and grapes. + +One day, Lily went to school with her lunch box. She was happy to see her friends and play with them. But when it was time for lunch, she had a problem. She could not open her lunch box. She tried to pull and twist and shake it, but it did not work. She started to feel hungry and sad. + +She looked around and saw that her friends had opened their lunch boxes. They had sandwiches and soup and salad. They looked at Lily and wondered why she did not eat. They asked her, "Lily, what is wrong? Do you not like your lunch?" + +Lily said, "I like my lunch, but I cannot open my lunch box. It is too hard. I need help." + +Her friends said, "We can help you, Lily. Let us try." They took turns to try to open Lily's lunch box. They pulled and twisted and shook it, but it did not work. They started to feel tired and frustrated. + +They said, "Lily, your lunch box is too hard. Why do you have such a hard lunch box?" + +Lily said, "I do not know. My mom gave it to me. She said it was a special lunch box. She said it had noodles and cheese and grapes inside. She said it was a unique lunch box for a unique girl." + +Her friends said, "That sounds yummy, but how can you eat it if you cannot open it?" + +Lily said, "I do not know. Maybe we can ask the teacher. Maybe she can open it." + +They agreed and went to the teacher. They showed her Lily's lunch box and told her the problem. The teacher smiled and said, "I see. This is a special lunch box. It has a secret way to open it. You have to press this button and say the magic word." + +She pressed the button and said, "Abracadabra!" The lunch box popped open and revealed the noodles and cheese and grapes inside. Lily and her friends gasped and cheered. They said, "Wow! That is amazing! That is a unique lunch box for a unique girl!" + +Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, teacher. Thank you, friends. Now I can eat my lunch. Do you want to try some? It is very yummy." + +Her friends said, "Yes, please. We want to try some. Can we share our lunch with you, too?" + +Lily said, "Of course. We can share and trade and taste. That is more fun than eating alone." + +They nodded and agreed. They sat together and shared and traded and tasted their lunch. They enjoyed the different flavors and colors and shapes. They learned that different things can be good and fun and unique. They had a happy lunch and a happy day. +Lily and Ben were playing with paper. They liked to fold it into different shapes. Lily made a hat, a boat and a flower. Ben made a plane, a star and a frog. + +"Look at my frog!" Ben said. "It can hop and croak!" + +"Wow, that's cool!" Lily said. "Can I see it?" + +Ben gave Lily his frog. Lily held it gently and made it hop on the table. She smiled and said, "Ribbit, ribbit!" + +But then, something bad happened. The frog hopped too high and landed in a jar. The jar was on the shelf. It was full of cookies. The jar was too big and too high for Lily and Ben to reach. + +"Oh no!" Lily said. "How can we get the frog out?" + +"I don't know!" Ben said. "We need help!" + +They looked around and saw their mom. She was in the kitchen. She was making dinner. She looked grumpy. She had a lot of work to do. + +"Mom, mom, please help us!" Lily and Ben said. "Our frog is in the jar!" + +"What frog?" Mom said. "What jar?" + +She followed Lily and Ben to the shelf. She saw the jar with the cookies and the paper frog. She frowned and said, "How did this happen?" + +"We were playing with paper and we folded a frog and it hopped in the jar and we can't get it out!" Lily and Ben said quickly. + +Mom sighed and said, "You should be more careful with your toys. And you should not touch the cookie jar. It is not for playing. It is for eating." + +She took the jar from the shelf and opened it. She took out the frog and gave it to Ben. She took out a cookie and gave it to Lily. She said, "Here, you can have one cookie each. But don't make a mess. And don't fold any more frogs." + +"Thank you, mom!" Lily and Ben said. They ate their cookies and hugged their mom. They were sorry for making her grumpy. They decided to fold something else. They folded a heart and gave it to mom. They said, "We love you, mom!" + +Mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Lily and Ben. You are very sweet. And very creative. But please, no more frogs in the jar." +Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play with toys. One day, they went to the toy store with their moms. Tom saw a big black car that made loud noises. He wanted to buy it with his money. + +"Look, Lily, this car is so cool! It can go fast and make sounds. I recommend you get one too!" Tom said. + +Lily looked at the car and shook her head. She did not like the black car. She liked a small pink doll that had a dress and a hat. She wanted to buy it with her money. + +"No, Tom, I don't like the car. It is too big and noisy. I like the doll. She is so pretty and tidy. I recommend you get one too!" Lily said. + +Tom and Lily could not agree on which toy to buy. They started to argue and shout. Their moms heard them and came over. + +"What is going on here? Why are you fighting?" Tom's mom asked. + +"Tom wants me to buy the car, but I don't like it. I want him to buy the doll, but he doesn't like it." Lily said. + +"Lily wants me to buy the doll, but I don't like it. I want her to buy the car, but she doesn't like it." Tom said. + +Their moms looked at each other and smiled. They had an idea. + +"Why don't you both buy the toy that you like, and then share them with each other? That way, you can have fun with both toys and learn to respect each other's choices." Tom's mom said. + +"That sounds like a good idea. Do you agree, Tom?" Lily asked. + +"Yes, I agree, Lily. I'm sorry for being rude. You can play with my car if I can play with your doll." Tom said. + +"I'm sorry too, Tom. You can play with my doll if I can play with your car." Lily said. + +Tom and Lily hugged and said sorry. They bought their toys and went home. They played together and had a great time. They learned that it is good to recommend things to others, but it is also good to listen to others and be kind. +Tom is sick. He has a bad cough and a hot head. He does not want to play or eat. He only wants to lie in his bed and cry. + +Mom comes to his room with a glass of water and a small pill. She says, "Tom, this pill will help you feel better. It is good for you. You have to swallow it with water." + +Tom does not like pills. He thinks they are yucky and hard. He shakes his head and says, "No, Mom, no pill. I don't want it." + +Mom is sad. She knows Tom is in pain. She says, "Please, Tom, try to take the pill. It will make your cough go away and your head cool down. I love you and I want you to be well." + +Tom looks at Mom's eyes. He sees that she is not angry, but worried. He loves Mom and he does not want to make her sad. He says, "OK, Mom, I will try." + +Mom smiles and gives him the pill and the water. She says, "Good boy, Tom. You are very brave. Now, drink some water and rest." + +Tom puts the pill in his mouth and drinks the water. He makes a face, but he does not spit it out. He says, "I did it, Mom. I took the pill." + +Mom hugs him and says, "I am so proud of you, Tom. You are a good boy. Now, let me rock you to sleep. You will feel better soon." + +Mom rocks Tom in her arms. She sings a soft song. Tom feels her warm and gentle touch. He closes his eyes and falls asleep. He dreams of happy things. +Tim and Mia are squirrels who live in a big tree. They like to play and run in the forest. But they also have to prepare for winter. They have to find many acorns and hide them in their nest. + +One day, they see a big pile of acorns near a bush. They are very happy and run towards it. But they do not see the big snake that is hiding behind the bush. The snake is hungry and dangerous. It wants to eat the squirrels. + +"Look, Tim, so many acorns!" Mia says. "Let's take them to our nest." + +"Wait, Mia, something is not right," Tim says. He smells the snake and sees its eyes. "It's a trap! There is a snake!" + +Tim grabs Mia's tail and pulls her back. The snake hisses and strikes, but misses them. Tim and Mia run away as fast as they can. They are scared and angry. + +"That was a bad snake!" Mia says. "It tried to trick us and hurt us!" + +"Yes, it was," Tim says. "But we are smart and brave. We can find other acorns. Come on, let's go to the other side of the forest. Maybe there are more acorns there." + +Tim and Mia hold paws and continue to prepare for winter. They are careful and watchful. They do not want to meet the snake again. They are happy to have each other. +Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They saw a big pile of laundry on the grass. It was Mom's laundry. She was hanging it on the line to dry. + +"Look, Ben, Mom's clothes!" Lily said. She ran to the pile and picked up a shirt. "This is Mom's shirt. It is blue and soft." + +Ben followed her and grabbed a sock. "This is Mom's sock. It is white and warm." + +They started to put on Mom's clothes. Lily put on the shirt and Ben put on the sock. They looked very funny. + +"Who are you?" Ben asked Lily. + +"I am Mom," Lily said. "And you are Dad." + +They pretended to be Mom and Dad. They talked in big voices and made silly faces. + +Mom saw them from the window. She smiled and came out. + +"Hello, Mom and Dad," she said. "What are you doing with my laundry?" + +Lily and Ben looked at her. They were not sure what to say. + +"We are playing," Lily said. + +"We are sorry," Ben said. + +Mom laughed. She hugged them and said, "It's okay. You can play with my laundry. But please be careful. Don't rip or stain it." + +Lily and Ben nodded. They said, "We love you, Mom." + +Mom said, "I love you, too. Now, let's hang the laundry together." +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to paint with colors. One day, they go to the field with their paints and paper. The field is big and green. The sun is mild and warm. + +Lily paints a flower. She uses red and yellow and green. She is happy with her flower. She shows it to Ben. Ben likes it too. He paints a tree. He uses brown and green and blue. He is happy with his tree. He shows it to Lily. Lily likes it too. + +But then, a dog comes to the field. The dog is big and black and loud. He runs to Lily and Ben. He wants to play. He jumps on their paints and paper. He makes a mess. He spoils their flower and tree. He barks and wags his tail. + +Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They shout at the dog. They tell him to go away. They try to save their paints and paper. But the dog does not listen. He thinks they are playing too. He chases them around the field. He makes them run and fall. + +Then, a man comes to the field. The man is the dog's owner. He sees the mess and the children. He calls the dog. He tells him to stop. He says he is sorry. He helps Lily and Ben. He gives them new paints and paper. He says they can paint again. + +Lily and Ben are still sad and angry. But they are also kind. They forgive the dog and the man. They say thank you. They paint again. They make new flower and tree. They are happy again. The dog watches them. He is quiet and good. He learns to be careful. The sun is still mild and warm. +Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They had a lot of fun. + +But then, Sara tripped on a rock and fell down. She hurt her knee and it was bleeding. She cried out loud. + +"Ow, ow, ow! My knee hurts! I can't get up!" + +Tom heard her and ran to her. He saw her knee and felt sorry for her. He wanted to help her. + +"Don't cry, Sara. I'm here. Let me see your knee. Maybe I can make it better." + +He took a tissue from his pocket and gently wiped her knee. He tried to stop the bleeding and make a bandage. He hugged her and said: + +"There, there. You'll be okay. You're very brave. Let's rest here for a while. Then we can go and find mom. She'll know what to do." + +Sara felt a little better. She was glad that Tom was her friend. He was very kind and helpful. She hugged him back and said: + +"Thank you, Tom. You're the best. You made my knee feel better. Let's rest here for a while. Then we can go and find mom. She'll be happy to see us." +Tom and Lily went to the museum with Mom and Dad. They saw many things, like big bones, old pots, and shiny rocks. Tom liked the big bones best. He wanted to see the big teeth of the big animals. + +He ran to the next room, where there was a big sign that said "Dinosaurs". He saw a big skeleton of a dinosaur with a long neck and a long tail. He wanted to touch it, but there was a rope around it. He looked around and saw no one. He ducked under the rope and reached for the bone. + +But then he heard a loud roar. He turned around and saw a big dinosaur with green scales and sharp teeth. It was not a skeleton, it was alive! It looked at Tom and opened its mouth. Tom was very scared. He wanted to run, but he could not move. + +Lily saw Tom disappear under the rope. She wondered what he was doing. She followed him and saw the big dinosaur. She was scared too, but she was also brave. She wanted to help Tom. She picked up a stick and threw it at the dinosaur. The dinosaur looked at the stick and chased it. Lily grabbed Tom's hand and pulled him out of the room. They ran back to Mom and Dad. + +Mom and Dad were worried. They asked Tom and Lily where they had been. Tom and Lily told them about the dinosaur. Mom and Dad did not believe them. They said it was just a model, not a real dinosaur. They said they should not go under the rope, it was dangerous. Tom and Lily nodded, but they knew what they saw. They were glad they were safe. They hugged each other and smiled. They were brave. +Sara and Ben are playing in the living room. They have a lot of toys, but they like the train set the best. The train set has a switch that makes the train go fast or slow. Sara likes to make the train go fast, but Ben likes to make it go slow. + +"Can I use the switch?" Sara asks Ben. + +Ben nods and gives her the switch. Sara makes the train go fast, fast, fast. She laughs and claps her hands. The train zooms around the track. + +"Slow down, slow down!" Ben says. He does not like the train going so fast. He thinks it will crash. + +Sara shakes her head and makes the train go faster. She thinks it is fun. + +"Please, Sara, please!" Ben begs. He points to the switch. + +Sara looks at Ben. She sees that he is sad. She does not want to make him sad. She likes Ben. He is her friend. + +"Okay, Ben, okay," Sara says. She gives him the switch. Ben makes the train go slow, slow, slow. He smiles and hugs Sara. + +"Thank you, Sara, thank you!" Ben says. He thinks Sara is nice. She is his friend. + +They play with the train set together. They take turns with the switch. They make the train go fast and slow. They have fun. + +They see a cute cat outside the window. The cat is fluffy and white. It has blue eyes and a pink nose. It meows and rubs its head on the glass. + +"Look, look!" Sara and Ben say. They run to the window. They wave at the cat. + +The cat waves back with its tail. It purrs and licks its paw. It looks at Sara and Ben. It thinks they are cute. It wants to play with them. +Lily and Tom were playing in the backyard. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a pistol. It was not a real pistol, but a toy one that made a loud noise when they pulled the trigger. They liked to pretend they were spies and shoot at the bad guys. + +"Bang! Bang! You're dead, Mr. Evil!" Lily shouted, pointing her pistol at a stuffed bear. + +"No, I'm not! I have a secret weapon!" Tom said, grabbing a water balloon from a bucket. He threw it at Lily, but missed. The balloon hit the window and burst, making a big splash. + +"Uh-oh," Tom said, looking at the broken glass. "We destroyed the window!" + +Lily dropped her pistol and ran to the house. She was scared that Mom would be angry. Tom followed her, hoping that Mom would not see the mess. + +Mom was in the kitchen, making a cake. She heard the noise and came out to see what happened. She saw the water, the glass, and the pistol on the ground. She was not happy. + +"Who did this?" she asked, frowning. + +Lily and Tom looked at each other. They did not want to get in trouble. They decided to tell the truth. + +"We did, Mom," Lily said, in a small voice. "We were playing with the pistol and the water balloon. We're sorry." + +Mom sighed. She was not happy, but she was not angry either. She knew that Lily and Tom were good kids who made a mistake. + +"It's okay, my charming ones," she said, hugging them. "But you have to be more careful next time. The pistol and the water balloon are not for playing near the window. They can destroy things and hurt people. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Tom nodded. They understood. They said they were sorry again and helped Mom clean up the mess. They learned their lesson and never played with the pistol and the water balloon near the window again. +Mia liked to stir things. She stirred her milk, her soup, her paint. She liked to see the colors and shapes change. She wanted to be independent and do things by herself. + +One day, she saw a big cone on the street. It was orange and white and had a sign on it. She did not know what the sign said, but she wanted to stir the cone. She ran to the cone and grabbed it with both hands. She tried to shake it and twist it. + +"Hey, stop that!" a voice shouted. It was a man in a yellow vest. He was working on the road. He had put the cone there to warn people of a hole. He was angry at Mia. "That cone is not a toy! You could fall in the hole and get hurt!" + +But Mia did not listen. She was too busy stirring the cone. She did not see the hole behind her. She did not hear the man. She only felt the cone move and wobble. She smiled and giggled. + +Then, the cone slipped from her hands. It rolled into the hole. Mia followed it. She fell into the hole. She screamed and cried. The man ran to the hole. He tried to help her. But it was too late. Mia was gone. The hole was too deep and dark. The cone was the only thing left. It lay on the bottom of the hole. It did not stir. +Anna and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They also gave him two eyes, a mouth and a cherry on top. + +"Look, our snowman is so nice and clean!" Anna said. + +"Yes, he is. But we have to be careful. The sun is very bright and warm today. He might melt." Ben said. + +They ran inside to get some hot chocolate. They left the snowman in the yard. + +After a while, they came back to check on their snowman. But he was not the same. He was smaller and wet. His hat and scarf were on the ground. His carrot nose was gone. His eyes and mouth were crooked. And his cherry was on the grass. + +"Oh no, our snowman melted!" Anna cried. + +"Who did this to him?" Ben asked. + +They looked around and saw a rabbit hopping away. It had a carrot in its mouth. + +"It was the rabbit! He ate his nose and made him melt!" Ben said. + +They ran after the rabbit, but it was too fast. They could not catch it. + +They were sad and angry. They wanted their snowman back. + +But then they saw something shiny on the grass. It was the cherry. + +"Look, the cherry is still here!" Anna said. + +"Maybe we can make another snowman and put the cherry on top." Ben said. + +They smiled and picked up the cherry. They decided to make another snowman. But this time, they would make him in the shade, where the sun could not melt him. And they would watch out for the rabbit. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to Ben's house. Ben has a new toy. It is a red clock. It can make sounds and show numbers. + +"Wow, your clock is so cool!" Lily says. "Can I borrow it?" + +"Okay, you can borrow it. But you have to give it back later," Ben says. He gives the clock to Lily. + +Lily holds the clock and presses a button. The clock says "ding dong". Lily laughs. She presses another button. The clock says "one, two, three". Lily smiles. + +"Can I try?" Ben asks. He wants to play with his clock too. + +"Wait a minute. I'm not done yet," Lily says. She presses more buttons. The clock says "four, five, six". + +Ben feels sad. He wants his clock back. He says, "Lily, please give me my clock. You said you would borrow it, not keep it." + +Lily looks at Ben. She sees that he is sad. She remembers that the clock is his toy, not hers. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. You're right. I should give you your clock. Here you go." + +Ben takes his clock and smiles. He says, "Thank you, Lily. You're a good friend. Do you want to play with something else?" + +Lily nods. She says, "Yes, let's play with something else. How about your blocks?" + +Ben and Lily go to play with the blocks. They share and have fun. They are happy. +Sara is a kid who likes to work. She helps her mom and dad with many things. She can make her bed, put away her toys, and water the plants. She is a good kid. + +One day, Sara sees a pretty dress in the store. It is pink and has flowers on it. She wants to buy it, but it is too expensive. She asks her mom if she can have it. + +"Mom, can I have that pretty dress?" Sara says. + +"Sorry, Sara, we don't have enough money for that dress. Maybe you can save some money and buy it later." Mom says. + +Sara is sad, but she has an idea. She decides to work more and earn some money. She asks her mom and dad if they have any extra work for her. They say yes, and give her some tasks. She can wash the dishes, sweep the floor, and fold the laundry. They say they will pay her a little money for each task. + +Sara works hard and does a good job. She puts her money in a jar and counts it every day. After a few weeks, she has enough money for the dress. She is very happy. + +She goes to the store with her mom and buys the pretty dress. She tries it on and looks in the mirror. She smiles and twirls. + +"Mom, I love this dress! Thank you for letting me work and buy it!" Sara says. + +"You're welcome, Sara. I'm proud of you for working and saving. You look very pretty in that dress." Mom says. + +Sara hugs her mom and wears her dress all day. She feels like a princess. She is a happy kid. +Ben and Mia are playing in the garden. They like to run and jump and laugh. But there is a problem. A mosquito is buzzing around them. It wants to bite them and make them itch. + +"Go away, mosquito!" Ben says. He tries to hit the mosquito with his hand, but he misses. The mosquito is too fast and small. + +"Ouch!" Mia says. The mosquito bites her on the arm. She feels a sting and a bump. She rubs her arm and cries. + +"Don't cry, Mia. I will help you," Ben says. He runs to the house and brings a band-aid. He puts it on Mia's arm. "There, this will make you feel better." + +"Thank you, Ben. You are very kind and strong," Mia says. She smiles and hugs Ben. + +The mosquito sees them and flies away. It does not want to bother them anymore. Ben and Mia are happy. They go back to playing in the garden. They are not afraid of the mosquito. They are brave and strong. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with trucks. Tom has a big red truck. Sam has a small blue truck. They have fun driving their trucks on the grass and in the mud. + +One day, a man comes to their park. He has many toys to sell. He has dolls, cars, balls, and books. He also has a truck. It is a yellow truck. It can make sounds and lights. It can also talk. + +"Wow, look at that truck!" Tom says. "It is so smart and cool. I want it!" + +"Me too!" Sam says. "But we have no money to buy it." + +The man sees Tom and Sam. He smiles and walks to them. He says, "Hello, boys. Do you like my truck? It is a very special truck. It can do many things. Do you want to try it?" + +Tom and Sam nod. They take the yellow truck and play with it. They are amazed by its sounds and lights and words. They forget about their own trucks. + +The man watches them. He says, "Do you want to keep the yellow truck? I can sell it to you for a good price. You just have to give me your red truck and your blue truck. Then the yellow truck is yours." + +Tom and Sam look at each other. They like the yellow truck, but they also love their own trucks. They are not sure what to do. + +What do you think they should do? Should they trade their trucks for the yellow truck, or keep their own trucks? Why? +Lily and Ben were playing with their toy guns in the park. They liked to pretend they were navy soldiers, fighting bad guys on the sea. They wore blue hats and shirts, and made loud noises with their mouths. + +"Bang, bang, shoot, shoot!" Lily shouted, pointing her gun at a tree. "I got you, you mean pirate!" + +"Good job, Lily!" Ben said, running to her side. "You are a brave navy soldier. Let's go find more bad guys to shoot." + +They ran around the park, looking for more targets. They saw a big rock, a trash can, a bench, and a bird. They shot at them all, laughing and cheering. + +But then, they saw a real gun on the ground. It was shiny and black, and had a red button on it. They did not know what it was, but it looked like a toy gun. They picked it up, and felt its weight. + +"Wow, this is a cool gun!" Ben said, holding it in his hands. "It looks like a real navy gun. Let's try it." + +He pointed it at a flower, and pressed the red button. But instead of a loud noise, there was a big boom. The gun fired a bullet, and hit the flower. The flower exploded, and petals flew everywhere. + +Lily and Ben were shocked. They dropped the gun, and covered their ears. They did not like the gun anymore. It was scary and dangerous. + +They looked around, and saw a man running towards them. He was angry and red, and had a badge on his chest. He was a police officer, and he was looking for his gun. He had left it on the ground by mistake, when he was chasing a thief. + +"Hey, you kids!" he yelled. "What are you doing with my gun? Do you know how much trouble you are in? You could have hurt someone, or yourselves!" + +He grabbed the gun, and took Lily and Ben by their arms. He dragged them to his car, and put them in the back seat. He called their parents, and told them what happened. He said they had to go to the station, and talk to the boss. + +Lily and Ben were scared and sad. They did not mean to do anything bad. They just wanted to play. They wished they never found the gun. They wished they never shot the flower. They were poor navy soldiers, and they had a bad ending. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play and talk. But Lily and Ben are different. Lily can hear and talk with her voice. Ben cannot hear and talk with his voice. He uses his hands to sign. Lily learns to sign too. She wants to talk with Ben. + +One day, they go to the park. They see a big slide. Lily and Ben want to go on the slide. They run to the slide. But there is a boy on the slide. He is mean. He does not let Lily and Ben go on the slide. He says they are weird. He says he does not like their signs. He says they are not real words. + +Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They do not like the mean boy. They want to go on the slide. They try to tell the mean boy to stop. But he does not listen. He does not understand their signs. He does not care. He laughs at them. + +Lily and Ben do not give up. They have an idea. They work together. They use their signs to make a plan. They wait for the right time. Then they act. They push the mean boy off the slide. They go on the slide. They have fun. They smile and sign to each other. + +The mean boy is surprised and scared. He does not know what happened. He does not like to be pushed. He cries and runs away. He does not bother Lily and Ben anymore. + +Lily and Ben are happy. They are proud of themselves. They are proud of their signs. They know their signs are real words. They know their signs are beautiful. They know their signs are strong. They know their signs are their voice. +Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big hill with a hole in it. Sara wanted to go inside the hole. She said, "Let's go see the cave!" + +Tom was scared. He said, "No, Sara, it is dark and cold. There might be bugs or bats or bears. Let's play somewhere else." + +Sara did not listen. She said, "I want to go, I want to go! It will be fun and exciting. Come on, Tom, don't be a baby!" She ran to the hole and pulled Tom with her. + +Tom did not want to go. He said, "Stop, Sara, stop! I don't like the cave. It is not good. It is bad. Let me go!" He tried to get away from Sara, but she was too strong. + +They went inside the hole. It was dark and cold. They could not see anything. They heard a loud roar. It was a bear! The bear was angry and hungry. It saw Sara and Tom and ran towards them. + +Sara and Tom were very scared. They screamed and ran out of the hole. They ran to their mom and dad, who were sitting on a bench. They hugged them and cried. + +Mom and dad asked, "What happened, Sara and Tom? Why are you so scared?" + +Sara and Tom said, "We went to the cave and there was a bear. It was big and mean and wanted to eat us. We are sorry, mom and dad. We should have listened to you. You always know what is good and what is bad." + +Mom and dad said, "We are glad you are safe, Sara and Tom. You should not go to places you don't know. You should not insist on doing things that are dangerous. You should always stay with us or ask us first. We love you and we want you to be happy and safe." + +Sara and Tom said, "We love you too, mom and dad. We learned our lesson. We will not go to the cave again. We will play with our toys and our friends. We will be good." +Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were animals. Anna was a lion and Ben was a zebra. They ran and chased each other on the grass. + +"Roar!" Anna said. "I am a big lion and I will catch you, zebra!" + +"Neigh!" Ben said. "You can't catch me, lion! I am too fast and smart!" + +They laughed and had fun. But then they saw a big sign on a fence. The sign had a picture of a lion and some words. Anna and Ben could not read the words, but they knew the picture was a lion. + +"Look, Ben!" Anna said. "There is a real lion in the park! Maybe he is friendly and wants to play with us!" + +Anna ran to the fence. She wanted to see the lion. Ben followed her. He was curious, but also scared. + +They reached the fence and looked inside. They saw a big cage with a big lion. The lion was sleeping on a rock. He looked very strong and fierce. + +Anna and Ben were amazed. They had never seen a lion so close. They wanted to touch him and hear him roar. + +"Hello, lion!" Anna said. "Do you want to play with us? We are also lions!" + +The lion did not answer. He did not hear Anna. He was dreaming of his home in the wild. + +Anna was not happy. She wanted the lion to wake up and talk to her. She had an idea. She saw a hole in the fence. She put her hand through the hole and reached for the cage. She wanted to tear a piece of the cage and make a noise. + +"Anna, no!" Ben said. "Don't do that! It is dangerous! The lion might get angry and hurt you!" + +But Anna did not listen. She pulled hard on the cage. She made a loud noise. The lion woke up. He saw Anna's hand. He thought it was food. He opened his mouth and bit Anna's hand. + +"Ow!" Anna screamed. "The lion bit me! It hurts!" + +Ben was terrified. He ran to Anna and pulled her away from the fence. He saw blood on her hand. He cried for help. + +"Help! Help! The lion bit Anna! She is hurt!" + +Some people heard Ben's cries. They came to help. They called a doctor and a zookeeper. They took Anna and Ben away from the fence. They told them they were very lucky. The lion could have killed them. + +Anna and Ben were very sorry. They learned a lesson. They should not tear things that are not theirs. They should not bother animals that are not their friends. They should listen to Ben when he is scared. They should be careful in the park. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play at the beach. They make sand castles and dig holes. They find shells and rocks. They are happy. + +One day, they see a big ball on the sand. It is red and blue and yellow. It is shiny and round. They want to play with it. They run to the ball and take turns to kick it. They kick it high and far. They laugh and shout. + +But then, a big wave comes and takes the ball away. The ball goes into the water and they cannot see it. They are sad. They cry and call for the ball. They want it back. + +They look at the water and hope the ball will come back. They wait and wait. But the ball does not come back. They are very sad. + +Then, they see a man walking on the beach. He has a big smile and a big bag. He sees them and comes to them. He says hello and asks them why they are sad. They tell him about the ball and the wave. He says he is sorry and he understands. He says he is a fisherman and he has a surprise for them. He opens his bag and shows them what is inside. It is full of balls. There are red balls and blue balls and yellow balls. There are shiny balls and round balls and soft balls. There are big balls and small balls and funny balls. He says he found them in the water and he does not need them. He says they can have them and play with them. He says they are lucky. + +Anna and Ben are very happy. They thank the man and hug him. They take the balls and run to the sand. They kick the balls and throw the balls and roll the balls. They make new games and new friends. They forget about the old ball and the wave. They are lucky and happy. They love the beach. +Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the yard. One day, they see a big pie on the window of their neighbor's house. It smells good. + +"Let's get the pie!" Tom says. + +"No, that is bad. The pie is not ours." Sam says. + +But Tom does not listen. He runs to the window and grabs the pie. He runs back to Sam with the pie in his hands. + +"Look, I have the pie!" Tom says. + +But the pie is hot. It burns Tom's hands. He drops the pie on the ground. The pie breaks into pieces. Tom cries. + +"Ow, ow, ow! The pie is hot! It hurts!" Tom says. + +Sam feels sorry for Tom. He gets a cloth and wipes Tom's hands. He hugs Tom and says, + +"I'm sorry, Tom. The pie was not a good idea. Next time, we should ask before we take something." + +Tom nods. He says, + +"I'm sorry, too. I was greedy. I should have listened to you." + +They hear their neighbor coming out of the house. She sees the pie on the ground. She is angry. + +"Who did this? Who took my pie?" She says. + +Tom and Sam are scared. They run to their house. They hide under their bed. They are sleepy. They fall asleep. They dream of a nice pie that they can share. +Ben and Mia love to play with their dog, Spot. Spot is a big, brown dog who likes to run and jump and lick their faces. Sometimes, Ben and Mia take Spot to the park, where they can throw a ball for him and watch him chase it. + +One day, Ben and Mia were at the park with Spot and their mom. They had a long, red leash for Spot, so he would not run away or bother other people. But Spot was very excited and wanted to play with other dogs. He pulled hard on the leash and made it break. Then he ran off, barking and wagging his tail. + +"Spot, come back!" Ben and Mia shouted. They were scared and sad. They did not want to lose their dog. They ran after him, but he was too fast. Their mom followed them, calling for Spot too. + +Spot ran to a pond, where he saw some ducks. He thought they were fun and tried to catch them. But the ducks did not like Spot. They quacked and flapped their wings and pecked at him. Spot was surprised and scared. He did not like the ducks. He wanted to go back to Ben and Mia. + +He heard them calling his name. He looked around and saw them on the other side of the pond. He also saw their mom, who had a new leash in her hand. She smiled and waved at him. Spot felt happy and sorry. He wanted to say sorry for running away. He wanted to go back to his family. + +He ran to the edge of the pond and jumped in. He swam across the clear water, making splashes and bubbles. Ben and Mia cheered and clapped. They were happy to see Spot. They waited for him on the shore, ready to hug him and pet him. + +Spot reached the shore and shook himself, making everyone wet. He licked Ben and Mia's faces and wagged his tail. He let their mom put the new leash on him. He was glad to be with them again. + +"Good boy, Spot!" their mom said. "You scared us, but we're glad you're safe. Next time, don't break the leash, okay?" + +"Okay, mom," Spot said in his doggy way. He was sorry for breaking the leash, but he was happy to have a new one. He was happy to have his family. He felt like they had restored his love. He hoped they felt the same. +Lila was a cat who liked to explore. One day, she saw a big hole in the hill. She thought it was a cave. She wanted to see what was inside. She ran to the hole and jumped in. + +It was dark and cold in the cave. Lila could not see anything. She heard a loud roar. She was scared. She wanted to go back. She turned around and ran to the hole. But the hole was too small. She could not get out. + +Lila was stuck in the cave. She cried for help. She wished she had not been so foolish. She wished she had listened to her mom. Her mom had told her to stay away from the hill. She had said it was dangerous. + +But Lila had not listened. She had been curious. She had wanted to have fun. She had not thought of the danger. Now she was in trouble. + +She heard the roar again. It was closer. She felt something warm and wet on her back. It was a tongue. It was a big bear. The bear had found her. The bear was hungry. + +Lila was very afraid. She closed her eyes. She hoped the bear would go away. She hoped someone would find her.

"But my car is faster. It can race and win." + +They pretended to make the doll and the car go on adventures. They had fun, but they also knocked over some pillows, spilled some crayons and tore some pages. + +Mom came out of the kitchen and saw the messy living room. She was not happy. + +"Look at this mess!" she said. "What have you two been doing?" + +"We were playing, Mom!" Lily said. "We have a hero and a car." + +"That's nice, but you also have to care about the house," Mom said. "You have to clean up after yourselves. It's not fair to leave everything like this." + +"Sorry, Mom," Ben said. "We didn't mean to make a mess." + +"Can you help me tidy up, please?" Mom asked. + +"OK, Mom," Lily and Ben said. They put their toys back in their boxes, picked up the pillows, crayons and pages, and threw away the trash. They also said sorry to each other for breaking their things. + +Mom smiled and hugged them. "Thank you, my loves," she said. "You are my heroes. Now, who wants lunch?" +Lily was tired. She had played all day with her toys and her dog. She wanted to go to bed and have a nice dream. But her mom said she had to brush her teeth first. + +"No, no, no!" Lily said. She did not like to brush her teeth. It was boring and it made her mouth feel funny. She ran away from her mom and hid under the table. + +"Lily, come out of there!" her mom said. "You have to brush your teeth or they will get dirty and hurt. It will only take a minute." + +Lily shook her head. She did not want to come out. She held on to the table leg and closed her eyes. + +Her mom sighed. She bent down and tried to pull Lily out. But Lily was strong. She pulled back and stayed under the table. + +"Lily, please, don't make this hard," her mom said. "I'm tired too, you know. I had a long day at work. I'm not trying to be mean.

I will tell you a story. Come on, let's go to the bathroom." + +Lily let go of the table leg and followed her mom. She brushed her teeth and rinsed her mouth. Then she went to her bed and snuggled with her dog. Her mom sat beside her and told her a story about a brave lady who saved a dragon from a mean knight. Lily listened and smiled. She was not tired anymore. She was happy. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant and water the flowers. They also liked to pick some radishes from the vegetable patch. Radishes were red and round and crunchy. + +One day, they saw a big radish that was bigger than their hands. They both wanted to have it. They pulled and pulled, but the radish did not come out. + +"Let me have it!" Tom said. + +"No, it's mine!" Lily said. + +They started to fight and tug and shout. They did not see the rabbit that was hiding behind a bush. The rabbit was hungry and liked radishes too. He saw his chance and hopped to the big radish. He bit it and turned it around. He pulled it out of the ground and ran away with it. + +Tom and Lily stopped fighting and looked at the empty hole. They saw the rabbit's tail disappearing behind the fence. They felt sad and silly. They had lost the big radish because they were not peaceful. + +They hugged and said sorry to each other. They decided to share the other radishes and be friends.

Dad asks. + +"We want to get the radish, Dad," Mia says. "But it is too thick. We can't get it." + +Dad smiles. He says, "Don't worry, kids. I have an idea. Let's travel to the market. We can buy some more radishes there. And some carrots and lettuce and peas. We can make a salad for lunch. How does that sound?" + +Tom and Mia like the idea. They let go of the radish. They hold Dad's hands. They travel to the market. They buy some more radishes and other vegetables. They make a salad for lunch. They eat and enjoy. They are happy. +Lily loved to play the piano. She liked to make sounds with the keys and sing along. Sometimes she played fast and loud, and sometimes she played slow and soft. She felt happy when she played the piano. + +But Lily's mom did not always permit her to play the piano. Mom said that Lily had to do other things, like eat, sleep, and play outside. Mom also said that Lily had to be careful with the piano, and not hit it or scratch it. Mom said that the piano was old and special, and that it belonged to Lily's grandma. + +One day, Lily's grandma came to visit. Lily was very excited to see her. Grandma hugged Lily and gave her a sweet cookie. Then Grandma said, "Do you want to play the piano with me, Lily?" Lily nodded and smiled. She ran to the piano and sat on the bench.

She had a big box of slides with different things on them. She liked to pick one and put it under the microscope and see what it looked like. + +One day, she picked a slide that had a flower on it.

She smiled and said, "That is a beautiful flower, Lily. Do you know what it is called?" + +Lily shook her head. She did not know the name of the flower. + +Her mom said, "It is called a daisy. It is a very common flower, but it has a special meaning. It means happiness and innocence. Do you know why?" + +Lily shook her head again. She did not know why. + +Her mom said, "Because daisies are simple and cheerful and they grow everywhere. They remind us to be happy and kind. Just like you, Lily. You are my daisy." + +Lily hugged her mom and said, "I love you, Mom. You are my daisy too." +Tom and Anna are twins. They like to play with their toys and eat snacks. One day, they see a big jar of cookies on the kitchen table. The jar has a label that says "Mom's cookies. Do not touch." + +Tom and Anna want to eat the cookies. They think they look delicious. They try to reach the jar, but it is too high. They get a chair and climb on it. They struggle to open the jar. It is very tight. + +"Let me do it," Tom says. He pushes Anna away and grabs the jar. He twists and turns, but the jar does not open. + +"No, let me do it," Anna says. She pulls the jar from Tom and tries to open it. She shakes and bangs, but the jar does not open. + +They hear a noise. It is Mom. She comes into the kitchen and sees Tom and Anna on the chair with the jar. + +"What are you doing?" Mom asks.

You can have one, but no more. And next time, please read the label and ask me first." + +Tom and Anna nod. They bite the cookies. They are delicious. They say thank you to Mom and hug her. They learn to respect the label. +Lily was a little girl who liked to crawl. She crawled under the table, behind the sofa and into the closet. She had fun crawling and finding new places to hide. + +One day, she saw a big scale on the floor. It was shiny and had numbers on it. Lily was curious and wanted to crawl on it. She thought it was a toy. + +She crawled towards the scale and climbed on it. But she was careless and did not balance herself. She wobbled and fell off the scale. She bumped her head and cried. + +Mommy heard her cry and ran to her. She picked her up and hugged her. She checked her head and saw a small bump. She kissed it and said, "It's okay, Lily. You are brave. But you have to be careful when you crawl on things. The scale is not a toy. It is for measuring how heavy you are." + +Lily nodded and said, "Sorry, Mommy. I won't crawl on the scale again." She snuggled with Mommy and felt better. She learned her lesson and was more careful when she crawled. +Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. But they also made a big mess. Toys, books, and clothes were everywhere. + +"Kids, it's time to clean up!" Mom called from the kitchen. "We have to go to the store soon." + +Lily and Tom did not want to stop playing. They ignored Mom and kept playing. + +"Kids, I'm serious. Clean up now or no dessert tonight!" Mom said again. + +Lily and Tom still did not listen. They found a tube of paint and decided to make more mess. They squeezed the paint on the floor, the walls, and the couch. They laughed and said they were making art. + +Mom came into the living room and saw the disaster. She was very angry and sad. She yelled at Lily and Tom. + +"What have you done? This is not art, this is a mess! You are very naughty and rude. You did not listen to me at all. Now we can't go to the store. And you can't have any dessert. And you have to clean this up by yourselves. And you have to go to bed early. And you have no more paint available. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Tom stopped laughing. They realized they had made a big mistake. They felt sorry and scared. They tried to say sorry to Mom, but she did not want to hear it. She gave them a bucket, a sponge, and a towel. She told them to start cleaning right away. She left the room and closed the door. + +Lily and Tom looked at each other. They did not know how to clean the paint.
