"We have to pick up the tools quickly." + +Pete and his dad bent over and started to help pick up all the tools. But the tools kept slipping out of their hands. + +"You are so stupid," Pete's dad said. + +But Pete just smiled and kept helping.

He told the bunny he would help her if she could climb on his back. He was very kind and she happily agreed. + +The fox carefully carried the bunny past the trap and she hopped off his back. She thanked him for his help and asked if he could lead her somewhere fun. He said yes and lead her over hills and through a forest. + +Eventually, they reached a place full of yummy carrots.

Suddenly, the park keeper put Jacob's dad in jail. +Jacob gasped and said, "Why did you put Dad in jail?" + +The park keeper answered, "He took something that he shouldn't have taken." +Jacob was so scared because his dad was in a dead jail. +Jacob started to cry and said, "Please lend my dad back to me." + +The park keeper was very sad to see Jacob crying and said, "Okay, I'll lend your dad to you." He opened the jail and Jacob was so happy to see his dad safe. + +Jacob and his dad thanked the park keeper and hugged each other.

Jake was delighted. + +On the day of the big festival, Jake was dressed in a cute outfit; he felt very special. When they arrived, Jake was so amazed. Mum and Dad couldn't take him from one stall to the next fast enough - there were so many things to look at and explore. + +Suddenly, Dad stepped away to grab a snack.

One afternoon it got very cold and the bunny felt a chill in her toes. She decided to look for something to keep her feet warm. + +So she started to wander around the forest and gather things. She collected twigs and leaves, even some stones. But none of them were as warm as she wanted. + +Just then, she spotted something sparkly in a corner. She hopped over and saw that it was a big fluffy scarf! The bunny was so excited and grabbed it in her tiny paws. + +Suddenly, a squirrel popped out from behind a tree. It scolded the bunny. "What are you doing? That's my scarf!", he shouted. + +The bunny was taken by surprise. She was very sorry and apologised to the squirrel. But the squirrel just shook his head. "It's alright. It's too cold today. You can keep my scarf and stay warm." + +The bunny was so happy. She thanked the squirrel and wrapped the scarf around her tiny toes.

He saw Paul and asked, "What are you doing?" + +Paul said, "I'm frightened, something is making noises in the garden." + +The mouse replied, "Don't worry, I know what it is! Don't be scared, I'll show you. You'll gain courage if you come with me!" + +So, hand in hand the two friends went to the garden. Paul was amazed to see a beautiful bird building its nest.

It was a big flag flapping in the wind outside the window. She became very alert and rushed out onto the porch. + +Mama saw somebody in the distance with an old flag draped over their shoulders. They were walking closer and closer to the house. Mama gasped and said, "Who's down there? Who are you?". + +The stranger stopped and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to help with the flag." Mama's face relaxed a bit as she said "OK, but why do you have our flag?". + +The stranger smiled and said, "I think a storm is coming and it'll be ripping through here soon. I think this flag might save you - the wind will protect you if you bind it to the porch." Mama thanked the stranger and they set to work. + +Using some old rope, they fastened the flag tight to the porch. Then they both stepped back to admire their work. Suddenly, they heard a loud rumble in the sky and the wind picked up. Sure enough, a raging storm swept in and the flag protected the house.

So she decided to keep it anyway. + +She ran back home as fast as her four little legs could carry her. She was so excited to show her bone to her mom. But then she remembered that she had taken it without asking. She was so ashamed of herself, she buried the bone under the nearest tree and ran inside. + +But she never forgot the bone.
