+"Mom, this is my friend, the raven. He can whistle and talk. He is very nice. Can he stay with us?"
+
+Sam's mom was not sure. She looked at the raven and the raven looked at her. He whistled softly and said, "Hello, mom. I am a tidy raven. I will not make a mess. Please let me stay with Sam."
+
+Sam's mom smiled. She saw that the raven was polite and friendly. She said, "OK, raven. You can stay with Sam. But you have to follow the rules. No biting, no scratching, no stealing."
+
+"OK, mom. I will follow the rules. No biting, no scratching, no stealing. Thank you for letting me stay."
+
+Sam and the raven hugged. They were happy. They went to Sam's room and played and whistled. They were the best friends ever.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to swing, slide and run on the grass. They saw a big dog with a red collar. The dog was barking and jumping. Ben and Lily were scared of the dog.
+
+"Mom, mom, look at the dog!" Ben cried. "It is loud and fast. It might bite us!"
+
+Mom smiled and took out her phone. She said, "Don't worry, Ben and Lily. The dog is harmless. It is just happy to see us. See, it has a tag with its name and number. Its name is Spot. I will call its owner and tell them where Spot is. Maybe they are looking for him."
+
+Mom dialed the number on the tag and waited. A voice answered, "Hello, this is Sam. Who is this?"
+
+"Hi, Sam. This is Mom. I am in the park with my kids. We found your dog, Spot. He is here with us. He is harmless, but he is very excited. Do you want to come and get him?"
+
+"Oh, thank you, thank you, Mom. You are very kind. I was looking for Spot everywhere. He ran away from me when I was walking him. I will be there in a few minutes. Please stay with him until I get there."
+
+Mom said, "OK, Sam. We will wait for you. Bye."
+
+Mom hung up the phone and put it in her pocket. She said to Ben and Lily, "See, we helped Sam and Spot. We saved them from being lost. They will be happy to see each other soon. Aren't you proud of yourselves?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and smiled. They were not scared of Spot anymore. They petted him and played with him. They liked Spot. He was a good dog. They waited for Sam to come and take him home.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. One day, they saw a big tree with many branches. The tree was very old and had many leaves.
+
+"Look, a stick!" Tom said. He picked up a long stick from the ground. He waved it like a sword. "I am a knight!"
+
+"I want a stick too!" Lily said. She looked around and saw a small stick on a branch. She tried to reach it, but it was too high. She jumped and jumped, but she could not get it.
+
+"Let me help you!" Tom said. He put his stick on the branch and pushed the small stick. The small stick fell down and Lily caught it. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Tom!"
+
+They both had sticks now. They pretended to be knights and princesses. They fought with their sticks and made noises. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud crack. The branch that Tom had pushed was old and weak. It broke and fell down. It was very big and heavy. It almost hit Tom and Lily. They were scared and ran away.
+
+They looked back and saw the branch on the ground. It had many rings on it. It was ancient. It had been on the tree for a long time.
+
+"Wow, that was close!" Tom said. He was glad they were not hurt.
+
+"Yes, that was scary!" Lily said. She was glad they had their sticks.
+
+They decided to leave the tree alone. They went to the swings and hung their sticks on the chains. They swung and laughed. They still had fun.
+Sara and Ben were playing on the beach. They liked to dig in the sand and find shells. Some shells were smooth and shiny, and some shells were rough and dull.
+
+"Look, Sara, I found a big shell!" Ben said, holding up a rough shell. "It has a hole in it. Maybe something lives inside."
+
+"Let me see, Ben!" Sara said, reaching for the shell. "Maybe it is a treasure."
+
+"No, it is mine!" Ben said, pulling the shell away. "I found it first. You can find your own shell."
+
+Sara was sad and angry. She wanted to see the shell too. She tried to grab the shell from Ben, but he was stronger. They started to fight over the shell.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud hiss. They looked at the shell and saw a crab poking out of the hole. The crab was angry too. It snapped its claws at Ben and Sara, making them drop the shell.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben and Sara cried, rubbing their fingers. "The crab bit us!"
+
+They ran away from the shell, leaving it on the sand. The crab crawled out of the shell and scuttled away.
+
+Ben and Sara learned a lesson. They learned that fighting over things can make them lose them. They learned that sharing is better than being greedy. They learned that some shells are not worth having. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They decided to look for smooth and shiny shells instead. They had more fun playing on the beach.
+Sam was a bald boy who liked to lift things. He lifted his toys, his books, his pillows, and even his cat. He wanted to show everyone how strong he was.
+
+One day, he saw his mom making a cake in the kitchen. She had a big bowl of butter on the table. Sam thought, "I can lift that butter. It will be easy and fun." He sneaked into the kitchen and grabbed the bowl of butter with both hands.
+
+But the butter was slippery and heavy. Sam could not hold it well. He dropped the bowl on the floor and made a big mess. The butter splashed on his clothes, his face, and his bald head. He felt sticky and silly.
+
+His mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Sam and the butter and said, "Oh, Sam, what did you do? You made a big mess and wasted the butter. Why did you lift the butter?"
+
+Sam felt sorry and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to lift the butter to show you how strong I am. But it was too slippery and heavy. I could not lift it."
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "Sam, you don't have to lift things to show me how strong you are. I love you for who you are, not for what you can lift. You are strong in your heart and your mind, and that is what matters. But you also have to be careful and respectful of other people's things. Lifting things is not always fun or safe. Sometimes it can be dangerous or wasteful. Next time, ask me before you lift something, okay?"
+
+Sam nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I'm sorry. I love you too. Can I help you clean the mess?"
+
+His mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can. That would be very helpful and kind. Come on, let's get a mop and a towel."
+
+Sam and his mom cleaned the mess together. Sam learned his lesson. He still liked to lift things, but he was more careful and respectful. He also learned to appreciate his mom's love and his own strength. He was a bald boy who liked to lift things, but he was also a good boy who liked to help and learn.
+Lily liked to stir things. She stirred her soup, her milk, her paint. She stirred with spoons, forks, brushes. She stirred fast, slow, hard, soft. She liked to see what colors and shapes she could make.
+
+One night, she saw a star in the sky. It was bright and shiny. She wanted to stir it. She asked her mom, "Can I stir the star?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "No, you can't stir the star. The star is too far away. And the star is original. It is not like anything else. It is special and beautiful."
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to stir the star. She wanted to make it different and fun. She said, "But I like to stir things. Stirring is fun."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I know, Lily. Stirring is fun. But some things are better not stirred. Some things are better just the way they are. Like the star. And like you. You are original. You are not like anyone else. You are special and beautiful. And I love you."
+Tim was a shy boy. He did not like to talk to other kids. He liked to play with his toys and watch his favorite show on TV. He had a big watch that his dad gave him. It was blue and had numbers and lights. Tim loved his watch.
+
+One day, Tim went to the park with his mom. He saw some kids playing with a ball. He wanted to join them, but he was too shy. He sat on a bench and watched them. He looked at his watch. It was almost time for his show.
+
+But then, a big boy came and took his watch. He said it was his now. He ran away with it. Tim was very sad and angry. He cried and told his mom what happened. His mom hugged him and said they would get his watch back.
+
+They looked for the big boy. They saw him near a slide. He was showing off his watch to other kids. Tim's mom went to him and said that was not his watch. She said he had to give it back to Tim. The big boy said no. He said he liked the watch and it was his.
+
+Tim's mom was not happy. She said he was being mean and rude. She said he had to share and be nice. She said if he did not give the watch back, she would tell his mom. The big boy was scared. He did not want to get in trouble. He gave the watch back to Tim. He said he was sorry.
+
+Tim was happy. He hugged his mom and thanked her. He put his watch back on his wrist. He looked at the time. He still had some minutes before his show. He saw the kids playing with the ball. He decided to be brave and ask them if he could play too. They said yes. Tim smiled and joined them. He had fun and made some new friends. He was not so shy anymore.
+One day, a child and his mom went to the park. The child liked to play on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. He was very busy and happy.
+
+"Mom, look at me!" he shouted, as he swung high in the air.
+
+"I see you, honey. You are very brave!" his mom said, smiling.
+
+After a while, the child wanted to try something new. He saw a big truck with a button that said "reverse". He wondered what it would do.
+
+"Mom, can I play with the truck?" he asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. It is not a toy. It is a real truck," his mom said.
+
+The child climbed into the truck and pushed the button. The truck made a loud noise and started to move backwards. The child was scared and did not know how to stop it.
+
+"Mom, help!" he cried.
+
+His mom ran to the truck and pulled him out. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, honey. You are safe. But you should not play with things you don't know. Reverse means to go back, not forward. Do you understand?"
+
+The child nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I won't do it again. Can we go back to the swings?"
+
+"Of course, honey. Let's go back to the swings. But first, let's say sorry to the truck driver. He was very nice to let us play with his truck," his mom said.
+
+The child and his mom said sorry to the truck driver and thanked him. Then they went back to the swings and had more fun. The child learned a new word and a new lesson. He was still busy and happy, but also careful and polite.
+Lily was a humble girl who liked to help her mom at the office. She did not make noise or mess. She liked to look at the files on the shelves. The files had many colors and words.
+
+One day, Lily saw a new file on the desk. It was blue and shiny. She wanted to see what was inside. She opened the file and saw many pictures. They were pictures of animals. Lily loved animals.
+
+She saw a picture of a big cat with stripes. She said, "Tiger!" She saw a picture of a long necked animal with spots. She said, "Giraffe!" She saw a picture of a funny animal with a big nose and ears. She said, "Elephant!"
+
+She turned the page and saw a picture of a small animal with fur and a tail. It looked like her toy. She said, "Rabbit!" She smiled and hugged the picture. She did not see the real rabbit behind the desk.
+
+The rabbit was curious. It smelled the file and the girl. It hopped out of its cage and went to the desk. It saw the girl and the picture. It said, "Hello!"
+
+Lily heard the voice and looked down. She saw the rabbit. She was surprised and happy. She said, "Hello, rabbit! You are so cute! Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The rabbit nodded and smiled. It said, "Yes, I do! My name is Fluffy. What is your name?"
+
+Lily said, "My name is Lily. I like your name. It suits you. You are very fluffy!"
+
+They laughed and played with the file and the pictures. They became good friends. They did not know that Lily's mom was watching them. She was glad that Lily met Fluffy. She thought they were very sweet.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big truck with red lights and a loud sound. It stopped near a man who was lying on the ground.
+
+"What is that, mom?" Anna asked.
+
+"That is an ambulance, Anna. It helps people who are hurt or sick. The people who work in the ambulance are called paramedics. They can explain what is wrong and give medicine or bandages," mom said.
+
+"Can we go and see, mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, Ben. We have to stay away and let the paramedics do their job. They need space and quiet to help the man. Maybe he fell or had a bad pain in his chest. We can pray for him and hope he gets better soon," mom said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and watched from a distance. They saw the paramedics put the man on a bed with wheels and put him inside the ambulance. Then the ambulance drove away with the red lights and the loud sound.
+
+"Mom, why does the ambulance have red lights and a loud sound?" Anna asked.
+
+"The red lights and the loud sound are to tell other cars and people to move out of the way. The ambulance has to go fast to the hospital, where there are more people who can help the man. The hospital is a big building with many rooms and fancy machines. The machines can show what is inside the body and how the heart and the lungs are working," mom said.
+
+"Wow, that sounds very fancy, mom. I hope the man is okay," Ben said.
+
+"Me too, Ben. Me too," mom said. She hugged Anna and Ben and said, "I'm glad you are both healthy and happy. Let's go and have some ice cream, okay?"
+
+"Okay, mom!" Anna and Ben said. They ran to the ice cream truck and chose their favorite flavors. They enjoyed their ice cream and thanked mom for taking them to the park. They learned something new today and they felt grateful for their life.
+Ben likes to work with his dad. His dad is a baker. He makes bread and cakes and pies. Ben helps him in the kitchen. He stirs the dough and pours the milk. He likes to smell the sweet things.
+
+One day, his dad gives him a small bag. He says it is a special powder. He says it can make things grow big and powerful. He tells Ben to be careful with it. He says only use a little bit.
+
+Ben is curious. He wants to see what the powder can do. He sneaks into the garden. He sees a tiny flower. He thinks it is too small. He sprinkles some powder on it. He waits. Nothing happens. He sprinkles more powder. He waits. Still nothing. He gets angry. He dumps the whole bag on the flower.
+
+Suddenly, the flower starts to grow. It grows bigger and bigger. It grows taller than Ben. It grows taller than the house. It grows taller than the trees. It has a huge stem and a huge petal. It looks like a giant sun.
+
+Ben is scared. He runs back to the kitchen. He tells his dad what he did. His dad is shocked. He looks out the window. He sees the flower. He says it is too big and powerful. He says they have to stop it. He says they have to get some scissors and cut it down. He says they have to hurry. He says the flower might eat them. He grabs Ben's hand and they run outside.
+Tom loved to soar in the sky. He had a big bag with many balloons. He tied the balloons to the bag and held it tight. Then he jumped and the balloons lifted him up. He felt happy and free.
+
+He saw many things from the sky. He saw his house, his school, his friends. He waved to them and they waved back. He was very popular. Everyone liked him and his balloons.
+
+But one day, a bird came. It was hungry and saw the balloons. It thought they were food. It pecked at them and popped them. Tom heard the loud noises and got scared. He felt the bag get lighter and he started to fall.
+
+He screamed for help. He saw his friends run to him. They caught him and hugged him. They were glad he was safe. They gave him new balloons and cheered him up. He thanked them and smiled. He still loved to soar, but he was more careful. He never let go of his bag.
+Sam and Tom are brothers. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, they find an ashtray in the kitchen. It is round and shiny and has some dirt inside.
+
+"Look, a new toy!" Sam says. He picks up the ashtray and runs to the living room.
+
+"Wait for me!" Tom says. He follows Sam and wants to play too.
+
+Sam puts the ashtray on the floor and pretends it is a spaceship. He makes zooming noises and moves it around. Tom watches and claps his hands.
+
+"Can I try?" Tom asks. He reaches for the ashtray.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Sam says. He pulls the ashtray away from Tom.
+
+"Please, Sam, share!" Tom says. He tries to grab the ashtray again.
+
+Sam and Tom start to fight. They tug and push and shout. The ashtray slips from their hands and falls to the ground. It breaks into pieces.
+
+"Oh no!" Sam and Tom say. They look at the broken ashtray and feel sad.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the living room. She sees the mess and the boys.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asks. She is angry.
+
+"Sorry, Mom, we broke the ashtray," Sam says.
+
+"We were playing and we fought," Tom says.
+
+Mom sighs and shakes her head. She picks up the pieces and throws them in the trash.
+
+"That was not a toy, boys. That was an ashtray. It was for Dad to put his cigarettes in. He will be upset when he sees it," Mom says.
+
+Sam and Tom feel sorry for Dad. They love Dad and do not want to make him upset.
+
+"Can we fix it, Mom?" Sam asks.
+
+"No, boys, it's too broken. You can't fix it," Mom says.
+
+"Can we buy a new one, Mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"No, boys, we don't have money for that. You know we are poor. Dad works hard to buy food and clothes for us. He only smokes sometimes to relax. He needs his ashtray," Mom says.
+
+Sam and Tom feel bad. They want to help Dad and Mom. They think hard.
+
+"I have an idea!" Sam says. He runs to his room and comes back with a paper cup.
+
+"Look, Mom, we can make a new ashtray with this cup. We can cut it and color it and make it pretty," Sam says.
+
+"That's a good idea, Sam. But do you have scissors and crayons?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we have them in our room. Come on, Tom, let's go!" Sam says.
+
+Sam and Tom run to their room and get their scissors and crayons. They cut the cup and color it with different colors. They make a nice pattern on it. They write "Dad" on it with a heart.
+
+"Look, Mom, we made a new ashtray for Dad. Do you like it?" Sam and Tom say.
+
+Mom looks at the paper cup ashtray. She smiles and hugs the boys.
+
+"I love it, boys. You are very clever and kind. I'm sure Dad will love it too. You succeeded in making a nice gift for him," Mom says.
+
+Sam and Tom feel happy. They are proud of their ashtray. They wait for Dad to come home and give it to him.
+
+Dad comes home from work. He is tired and weak. He sees the boys and Mom in the living room. He sees the paper cup ashtray on the table.
+
+"What's this?" Dad asks.
+
+"It's a new ashtray for you, Dad. We made it for you. We broke your old one and we are sorry. We hope you like it," Sam and Tom say.
+
+Dad looks at the paper cup ashtray. He sees the colors and the pattern and the word "Dad" with a heart. He feels touched and happy.
+
+"Thank you, boys. This is the best ashtray I ever had. You are very sweet and creative. I love it and I love you," Dad says.
+
+He hugs the boys and Mom. He puts his cigarette in the paper cup ashtray. He smiles and relaxes.
+
+The end.
+Sara and Ben like to play in the woods. They find a big cave and want to see what is inside. Sara is brave and goes first. Ben is scared and stays behind.
+
+"Come on, Ben, it is fun!" Sara says. "There are many rocks and sticks and bugs in here. Maybe we can find some treasure!"
+
+Ben shakes his head. He does not like dark and quiet places. He thinks there might be monsters or snakes or spiders in the cave. He wants to go back to the sunny and noisy woods.
+
+"No, Sara, I do not want to go. It is too dark and quiet. I am afraid. Let us go back to the woods and play with the birds and the flowers and the squirrels."
+
+Sara sighs. She likes to explore and learn new things. She thinks Ben is silly and boring. She wants to stay in the cave and see more.
+
+"Fine, Ben, you can stay there. I will go deeper and find more things. Maybe I will find a big shiny stone or a funny bone or a soft feather. You will miss all the fun!"
+
+Sara walks deeper into the cave. She does not see that a big bear is sleeping in a corner. The bear hears Sara's footsteps and wakes up. It is angry and hungry. It roars and runs towards Sara.
+
+Sara is scared. She screams and runs back to the cave entrance. She sees Ben waiting for her. She is happy and relieved. She hugs Ben and says sorry.
+
+"Ben, I am sorry. I was wrong. The cave is not fun. It is scary and dangerous. There is a big bear in there. It wanted to eat me. You were right. We should go back to the woods and play with the birds and the flowers and the squirrels."
+
+Ben is glad that Sara is safe. He hugs Sara and says it is okay.
+
+"Sara, it is okay. I am sorry too. I was scared. I did not want to go. But I am proud of you. You are brave and curious. You like to explore and learn new things. I want to be like you. Maybe next time we can find a safer place to play and learn together."
+
+Sara and Ben smile and hold hands. They run back to the woods and play and learn together. They are happy and friends.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a wide bucket and a small shovel. They dig in the soil and make a big hill.
+
+One day, Tom sees a new boy in the park. His name is Sam. Sam has a big shovel and a big truck. Tom wants to play with Sam. He invites Sam to join him and Mia.
+
+But Sam does not want to share. He says the soil is his. He pushes Tom and Mia away. He dumps his truck on their hill and breaks it.
+
+Tom and Mia are sad and angry. They say Sam is mean. They do not want to play with him. They go to another spot and start a new hill.
+
+Sam is alone. He looks at his truck and his shovel. He feels bored and sorry. He wishes he had friends. He decides to say sorry to Tom and Mia. He invites them to play with him and share his toys.
+
+Tom and Mia are surprised. They see Sam is not mean anymore. They forgive him and accept his invite. They play together and have fun. They make a bigger hill with their buckets, shovels and truck. They are happy and friendly.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. They saw many flowers and bugs and birds. They wanted to learn more about them. They asked their mom to help them.
+
+Mom showed them a book with pictures and names of different things in the garden. She pointed to a red flower and said, "This is a rose. It has a sweet smell and pretty petals. But it also has thorns that can hurt you. Be careful when you touch it." Anna and Ben nodded and smelled the rose.
+
+Then she pointed to a green plant and said, "This is a mint. It has a cool taste and a nice smell. You can use it to make tea or to flavor food. You can pick some and try it." Anna and Ben picked some mint and tasted it. They liked it.
+
+But then they saw another green plant that looked like mint. It had small purple flowers and a strong smell. They thought it was also mint and wanted to taste it. But mom stopped them and said, "No, this is not mint. This is poison. It can make you very sick or even die. Never eat it or touch it. It is very dangerous." Anna and Ben were scared and backed away from the poison.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "Don't worry. I will teach you how to tell the difference between mint and poison. Mint has round leaves and a smooth stem. Poison has jagged leaves and a hairy stem. See?" She showed them the book again and compared the pictures. Anna and Ben learned how to recognize mint and poison.
+
+Then they heard a loud roar from the bushes. They saw a big cat with yellow fur and black stripes. It had sharp teeth and claws and a long tail. It looked fierce and angry. It was a tiger. Mom said, "Run! This is a tiger. It can eat you. It is not a friend. It is an enemy. We have to go inside the house. Now!" Anna and Ben ran with mom to the house. They locked the door and closed the windows. They were safe.
+
+Mom said, "That was a tiger. It escaped from the zoo. It is not supposed to be here. The zookeepers will come and catch it. Don't worry. It will not hurt us." Anna and Ben were glad. They hugged mom and said, "Thank you for teaching us about the garden. We learned a lot. But we don't want to see a tiger again. It is too fierce." Mom said, "You're welcome. I love you. You are very brave. But you're right. Tigers are too fierce. Let's stay inside and read more books." Anna and Ben agreed. They liked books. They liked learning. They liked mom. They were happy.
+Tom was a lonely boy. He had no friends to play with. He lived on a farm with his mom and dad, but they were always busy. Tom liked to watch the animals, but they did not talk to him.
+
+One day, Tom saw a new chicken in the coop. It was small and yellow and had a red thing on its head. Tom thought it was cute. He went inside the coop and said hello to the chicken.
+
+"Hello, chicken. What is your name?" Tom asked.
+
+The chicken looked at Tom and nodded. It made a soft sound.
+
+"Are you nodding? Do you understand me?" Tom asked.
+
+The chicken nodded again. It pecked at some seeds.
+
+"Wow, you are a smart chicken. Do you want to be my friend?" Tom asked.
+
+The chicken nodded once more. It flapped its wings.
+
+Tom smiled. He felt happy. He had found a friend. He hugged the chicken gently.
+
+"I will call you Noddy. You are my Noddy chicken. We will have fun together," Tom said.
+
+The chicken snuggled with Tom. It made a happy sound.
+
+Tom and Noddy were not lonely anymore. They played and talked every day. They were the best friends on the farm.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they find a big metal ball in the grass. It is shiny and round.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom says. "It is like a small sun!"
+
+Mia touches the ball. It is cold and smooth. "It is pretty," she says. "But it is not a sun. It is a ball."
+
+Tom shakes his head. "No, it is a sun. See, it has light. And it is warm when the sun shines on it."
+
+Mia laughs. "You are silly, Tom. It is not a sun. It is a ball. A sun is much bigger and hotter. And it is in the sky, not on the ground."
+
+Tom frowns. He wants to prove Mia wrong. He has an idea. He runs to the house and gets a cloth. He comes back and starts to polish the ball. He rubs it hard and fast. He wants to make it brighter and warmer.
+
+"Look, Mia, look!" he says. "I am making the ball into a sun. It is getting more light and more heat. Soon it will be a real sun!"
+
+Mia watches Tom polish the ball. She thinks he is wasting his time. She knows the ball will never be a sun. She decides to play something else. She picks up a stick and draws in the dirt.
+
+"Tom, come and play with me," she says. "Stop polishing the ball. It is boring. And it is not a sun. It is a ball."
+
+Tom ignores Mia. He keeps polishing the ball. He thinks he is doing something amazing. He thinks he is making a sun. He does not want to play with Mia. He wants to polish the ball.
+
+Mia shrugs. She does not care. She has fun drawing in the dirt. She makes shapes and animals and letters. She is happy. She does not need a sun. She has a stick.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to joke. She liked to make funny faces and say silly things. She liked to make her mommy and daddy laugh.
+
+One day, Lily and her mommy went to the park. They saw many flowers and birds and bugs. Lily liked to smell the flowers and watch the birds and bugs. She saw a big yellow flower that looked like a sun. She ran to it and smelled it.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, look at this flower!" Lily said. "It is so pretty and yellow and big!"
+
+Mommy came to see the flower. She smiled and said, "That is a sunflower, Lily. It is a very special flower. Do you know why?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not know why.
+
+Mommy said, "Because it always follows the sun. It turns its head to look at the sun all day long. It likes the sun very much."
+
+Lily thought that was amazing. She wanted to joke with the flower. She said, "Hello, sunflower. Do you want to hear a joke?"
+
+The flower did not answer. It just looked at the sun.
+
+Lily said, "Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+The flower did not answer. It just looked at the sun.
+
+Lily said, "To get to the other side!"
+
+The flower did not answer. It just looked at the sun.
+
+Lily said, "That is a funny joke, right? Why are you not laughing?"
+
+The flower did not answer. It just looked at the sun.
+
+Lily felt sad. She thought the flower did not like her joke. She said, "I'm sorry, sunflower. I did not mean to make you sad. I just wanted to make you laugh."
+
+Mommy hugged Lily and said, "Don't worry, Lily. The flower is not sad. It is just busy looking at the sun. It does not know how to laugh. But I know how to laugh. And I think your joke was very funny. You are a very good joker, Lily."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mommy. You are very nice. Can we have a yummy snack now?"
+
+Mommy said, "Yes, we can. Let's go to the bench and have some cookies and juice. They are very yummy."
+
+Lily and mommy went to the bench and had some cookies and juice. They were very yummy. Lily and mommy laughed and talked and had a good time. They were very happy.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They share a crib. But they do not like to share. They fight for toys. They fight for blankets. They fight for space.
+
+One day, Mom gives them a new toy. It is a big red ball. Tom and Lily both want the ball. They grab it and pull it. They yell and cry. Mom says, "Stop fighting! You have to share the ball. Or I will take it away."
+
+Tom and Lily do not listen. They keep fighting. The ball is too big for the crib. It pushes them to the edges. It makes the crib shake. The crib is old and weak. It has a crack.
+
+Tom and Lily do not see the crack. They only see the ball. They pull harder and harder. The ball pops out of their hands. It rolls to the crack. It pushes the crack. The crack grows bigger and bigger.
+
+The crib breaks. Tom and Lily fall out. They hit the floor. They hurt. They cry. The ball rolls away. They lose the ball.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She runs to the room. She sees the broken crib. She sees Tom and Lily on the floor. She is angry and sad. She says, "Look what you did! You broke your crib. You hurt yourselves. You lost your ball. All because you did not share. Was it worth it?"
+
+Tom and Lily look at each other. They feel sorry. They shake their heads. They say, "No, Mom. It was not worth it. We are sorry. We will share. We will not fight."
+
+Mom hugs them. She says, "I am glad you learned your lesson. But you still have to sleep on the floor tonight. Until I get you a new crib. And you have to find your ball. It is your only toy now."
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They say, "Okay, Mom. We will do that. We will be good."
+
+They get up. They look for the ball. They see it under the bed. It is slow and dusty. They do not want it anymore. They wish they had shared. They wish they had not fought. They wish they had their crib.
+Anna and Ben are at the zoo with their mom. They see many animals, like lions, monkeys, and giraffes. But their favorite animal is the hippo. The hippo is very big and gray. He has a huge mouth and tiny ears.
+
+"Look, mom, the hippo is yawning!" Anna says, pointing at the hippo pool.
+
+"Wow, he has very big teeth!" Ben says, staring at the hippo.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Yes, he does. But he does not use them to eat meat. He only eats plants and grass. He is a herbivore."
+
+"What is a herbivore?" Anna asks.
+
+"A herbivore is an animal that only eats plants. Like the hippo, or the giraffe, or the rabbit. Do you know what an animal that eats meat is called?" Mom asks.
+
+"A carnivore!" Ben says, proudly.
+
+"That's right, Ben. A carnivore is an animal that eats meat. Like the lion, or the crocodile, or the eagle. And do you know what an animal that eats both plants and meat is called?" Mom asks.
+
+"An omnivore!" Anna says, excitedly.
+
+"Very good, Anna. An omnivore is an animal that eats both plants and meat. Like the bear, or the pig, or the human. We are omnivores, because we eat fruits, vegetables, bread, cheese, and sometimes meat. Do you like being an omnivore?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, we do!" Anna and Ben say, together.
+
+"Me too!" Mom says. "But we have to be careful not to eat too much of anything. We have to eat a balanced diet, to stay healthy and strong. Do you know what a balanced diet is?" Mom asks.
+
+"A balanced diet is when you eat a little bit of everything. Not too much, not too little. Like a rainbow!" Anna says.
+
+"That's a good way to think of it, Anna. A balanced diet is like a rainbow, with different colors and flavors. And do you know what else is important for our health?" Mom asks.
+
+"Drinking water!" Ben says.
+
+"And exercising!" Anna says.
+
+"And sleeping!" Mom says.
+
+"And brushing our teeth!" Ben says.
+
+"And washing our hands!" Anna says.
+
+"And minding our manners!" Mom says.
+
+"And having fun!" Anna and Ben say, together.
+
+Mom hugs them and says, "That's right, my sweeties. You are very smart and very good. I love you very much. Now, do you want to see more animals, or do you want to go to the playground?"
+
+"More animals!" Anna and Ben say, together.
+
+"Okay, then. Let's go see more animals. Maybe we can find some more herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores. And maybe we can say hello to the hippo again. He is very friendly. He does not mind us watching him." Mom says.
+
+They walk away from the hippo pool, holding hands and smiling. The hippo watches them go, and yawns again. He is very happy. He likes having visitors. He does not mind sharing his pool with the fish and the ducks. He is a good hippo. He is a gray hippo. He is a herbivore.
+Lily likes jazz. Jazz is music with loud horns and fast drums. Lily has a jazz CD that she plays every morning. She likes to dance and sing with the jazz.
+
+One day, Lily wakes up early. She wants to play jazz. She goes to the living room and puts the CD in the player. She turns the volume up high. She starts to dance and sing.
+
+"Jazz, jazz, jazz! I love jazz!" she shouts.
+
+But Lily's mom and dad are still sleeping. They do not like loud noises in the morning. They wake up and hear the jazz. They are not happy.
+
+They go to the living room and see Lily. They say, "Lily, what are you doing? It is too early for jazz. You are making too much noise. You have to be quiet."
+
+Lily stops dancing and singing. She looks at her mom and dad. She says, "But I love jazz. Jazz makes me happy. Can I play jazz, please?"
+
+Her mom and dad shake their heads. They say, "No, Lily. You can play jazz later, when we are awake. Now you have to turn off the CD and go back to your room. You can read a book or play with your toys. But you have to be quiet."
+
+Lily feels sad. She likes jazz, but she does not want to make her mom and dad angry. She says, "OK, I'm sorry. I will be quiet."
+
+She turns off the CD and goes back to her room. She picks up a large book with pictures of animals. She looks at the animals and makes their sounds. She says, "Moo, baa, quack, roar."
+
+She thinks, "Maybe I can play jazz later, when mom and dad are awake. Maybe they will dance and sing with me. Maybe they will like jazz too."
+Lily liked to draw with her pencil. She had many colors of pencils in her box. She drew flowers, stars, and animals on her paper. She was very happy.
+
+One day, she went to visit her grandma. Grandma had a big house with many things. Lily saw a shiny thing on the table. It looked like a pencil, but it was different. It was silver and had a button on the top. Lily wanted to try it.
+
+She took the shiny thing and pressed the button. A red light came out of the tip. Lily was surprised. She moved the shiny thing on the paper. The red light made a line. Lily thought it was fun. She made more lines and shapes with the red light.
+
+Grandma heard a noise and came to see. She saw Lily with the shiny thing and the paper. She was angry. She shouted at Lily.
+
+"Lily, what are you doing? That is not a pencil, that is a laser pointer. It is not for drawing, it is for teaching. You could hurt your eyes or the paper with it. Give it to me right now!"
+
+Lily was scared. She did not know the shiny thing was bad. She gave it to grandma and said sorry. She started to cry.
+
+Grandma felt sorry for Lily. She hugged her and said sorry too. She explained that the shiny thing was a modern tool that she used for her work. She showed Lily how it worked and why it was not a toy. She gave Lily a real pencil and a new paper. She said she could draw anything she wanted.
+
+Lily felt better. She thanked grandma and smiled. She drew a picture of grandma and the shiny thing. She wrote "I love you" on it. Grandma liked the picture. She said she loved Lily too. They were happy.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and slide and swing. They saw a big dog with a long tail and a shiny collar. The dog was barking and jumping.
+
+"Let's go and touch the dog!" Sam said. He liked dogs and wanted to pet it.
+
+"No, Sam, don't!" Lily said. She was afraid of dogs and thought they might bite. "The dog is not ours. We don't know if it is nice or mean."
+
+But Sam did not listen to Lily. He ran to the dog and tried to touch its head. The dog did not like that. It growled and snapped at Sam. It bit his hand and made it bleed.
+
+Sam cried out loud. He was hurt and scared. Lily ran to him and hugged him. She called for help. A man came and took the dog away. He said he was sorry and that the dog was not used to children.
+
+Sam and Lily went to the nurse. She cleaned Sam's hand and put a bandage on it. She said Sam was brave and that he would be okay. But she also said he should not touch strange dogs. She said it was difficult to know if they were friendly or not.
+
+Sam learned a lesson. He said he was sorry to Lily and that he would listen to her next time. He said he still liked dogs, but he would only touch the ones he knew. Lily said she was glad he was okay and that she still liked him. They hugged and went home.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a pond near the park. The pond has water and fish and frogs.
+
+"Look, a pond!" Anna says. "Can we swim in it?"
+
+Ben shakes his head. "No, we can't swim in the pond. The pond is dirty and cold. And the fish and frogs might bite us."
+
+Anna pouts. "But I want to swim in the pond. It looks fun."
+
+She takes off her shoes and socks. She runs to the pond. She jumps in the water. Splash!
+
+Ben gasps. "Anna, you are silly! Come back!"
+
+Anna laughs. She splashes the water with her hands. She feels something touch her foot. She screams.
+
+"Help! Help! Something bit me!"
+
+Ben runs to the pond. He sees a frog on Anna's foot. He picks up the frog and throws it away.
+
+"Anna, it was just a frog. It did not bite you. It was only a kiss."
+
+Anna cries. She is wet and cold and scared. She wants to get out of the pond.
+
+Ben helps Anna out of the pond. He gives her his jacket. He hugs her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. I was silly. I should have listened to you."
+
+"It's okay, Anna. I'm your friend. I forgive you. But next time, let's swim in the pool. The pool is clean and warm. And there are no fish and frogs."
+
+Anna nods. She smiles. She says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. And you are smart. Let's go to the pool tomorrow."
+
+They hold hands. They walk to the park. They dry in the sun. They are happy.
+Lily liked to question everything. She wanted to know how things worked and why they did what they did. She asked her mom and dad many questions every day.
+
+One day, Lily smelled something good in the kitchen. She ran to see what it was. She saw a big pie on the table. It was round and brown and had steam coming out of it. It looked yummy.
+
+Lily asked her mom, "What is that pie? Can I have some?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "That is a pumpkin pie. I made it for dessert. You can have some after dinner, if you eat your vegetables."
+
+Lily nodded. She liked pumpkin pie. She wondered how her mom made it. She asked, "How do you make pumpkin pie? Where do you get the pumpkin?"
+
+Her mom said, "I use a can of pumpkin, some eggs, some milk, some sugar, and some spices. I mix them together and pour them into a crust. Then I bake it in the oven. The can of pumpkin comes from the store. The store gets it from the farm. The farm grows the pumpkins in the field."
+
+Lily was amazed. She said, "Wow, that is a lot of steps. You are very clever, mom. And very modest. You never brag about your pie, but it is the best pie ever."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are very sweet. And very curious. You always ask good questions. I love you."
+
+Lily said, "I love you too, mom. And I love your pie. Can we have some now?"
+
+Her mom laughed and said, "Not yet, Lily. We have to wait for dinner. But you can help me set the table. That would be very helpful."
+
+Lily agreed. She helped her mom set the table. She was happy. She liked to help. She liked to learn. And she liked to eat pie.
+One day, it was raining a lot. Sam and Mia were young and liked to play outside, but they could not go out in the rain. They were sad and bored in the house.
+
+They looked for something fun to do. They saw the sink in the kitchen. It had a big tap and a plug. They had an idea. They put the plug in the sink and turned on the tap. Water filled the sink. They got some cups and spoons and pretended to make tea and soup.
+
+They had fun with the water, but they made a big mess. Water spilled on the floor and the table. They did not see Mom coming in. She was not happy. She saw the water and the cups and the spoons. She said, "What are you doing? You made a big mess! You have to clean it up!"
+
+Sam and Mia were sorry. They did not mean to make Mom angry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We were bored and wanted to play. We pretended to make tea and soup in the sink."
+
+Mom said, "I understand, but you have to be careful with water. It can make things wet and slippery. And you have to ask me before you use the sink. Now, help me clean up the mess and dry the floor and the table."
+
+Sam and Mia helped Mom clean up. They used towels and rags and wiped the water. They put the cups and spoons back in the drawer. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We love you."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, Sam and Mia. Next time, if you are bored, you can ask me for some books or toys or games. Or we can wait for the rain to stop and go outside together."
+
+Sam and Mia said, "OK, Mom. Thank you."
+
+They hugged Mom and smiled. They were not bored anymore. They were happy.
+Sam and Mia are twins. They like to watch their dad work in his lab. He is a scientist. He makes new things with tubes and bottles and machines. He is very busy.
+
+One day, Sam and Mia go to the lab with their dad. He says, "You can watch me, but don't touch anything. It can be dangerous." He gives them a big book with pictures of animals and plants. He says, "You can look at this while I work."
+
+Sam and Mia sit on a chair and open the book. They see a lion, a giraffe, a flower, a tree. They point and say the names. They are happy.
+
+But then, Sam sees a red button on a machine. He is curious. He says, "What does this do?" He reaches for the button.
+
+Mia says, "No, Sam, don't touch it! Dad said it can be dangerous!"
+
+But it is too late. Sam pushes the button. The machine makes a loud noise. It shoots out a green smoke. The smoke fills the lab. Sam and Mia cough and sneeze.
+
+Their dad sees the smoke. He runs to the machine. He turns it off. He says, "Oh no, Sam, what did you do? You should have listened to me. This was a bad idea."
+
+He takes Sam and Mia out of the lab. He says, "I'm sorry, kids, we have to go home. The lab is not safe now. We have to clean it up later."
+
+Sam and Mia feel sorry. They say, "We're sorry, dad. We won't touch anything again. We just wanted to see what it does."
+
+Their dad hugs them. He says, "I know, kids, I know. You were curious. But you have to be careful. Some things are not for kids. They are for grown-ups. Maybe when you are older, I can show you more things in the lab. But for now, let's go home and watch a movie. How about that?"
+
+Sam and Mia nod. They say, "Okay, dad. We love you."
+
+They go home and watch a movie. They are happy.
+Ben and Mia liked to play in the park. They ran, jumped and laughed. They saw a fountain with water that went up and down. They wanted to see it closer.
+
+"Look, Ben, the water is so pretty!" Mia said.
+
+"Yes, and it makes a nice sound too!" Ben said.
+
+They went near the fountain and touched the water. It was cold and wet. They splashed each other and giggled.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud voice.
+
+"Freeze! Don't move!" the voice said.
+
+They turned around and saw a man in a blue uniform. He had a badge and a whistle. He looked angry.
+
+"What are you doing here? This fountain is not for playing. It is for looking. You are making a mess and breaking the rules!" the man said.
+
+Ben and Mia felt scared. They did not know they were doing something bad. They did not want to make the man more angry.
+
+"We are sorry, sir. We did not know. We just wanted to have fun." Ben said.
+
+The man looked at them. He saw their wet clothes and their innocent faces. He sighed.
+
+"OK, I understand. You are just kids. But you have to be careful and respectful. This fountain is very old and important. It is a gift from a very intelligent man who loved this park. He wanted to make people happy with his art. Do you understand?" the man said.
+
+Ben and Mia nodded. They felt sorry for the man and the fountain. They wanted to learn more about the intelligent man and his art.
+
+"Can you tell us more about him, sir? What was his name? How did he make the fountain?" Mia asked.
+
+The man smiled. He was not angry anymore. He liked that the kids were curious and polite.
+
+"Sure, I can tell you more. His name was Mr. Jones. He was a famous engineer and inventor. He made the fountain with pipes, pumps and valves. He used math and science to make the water go up and down in different patterns. He was very clever and creative." the man said.
+
+Ben and Mia listened with wonder. They thought Mr. Jones was amazing. They wanted to be like him when they grew up.
+
+"Wow, he was very intelligent. Thank you for telling us, sir. We are sorry for splashing the fountain. We will not do it again. We will just look and admire it." Ben said.
+
+"You are welcome, kids. And thank you for being respectful and honest. You are very intelligent too. You can still have fun in the park, but please be careful and follow the rules. And maybe someday, you can make your own fountains." the man said.
+
+He gave them a wink and a whistle. He walked away.
+
+Ben and Mia smiled. They waved goodbye to the man. They looked at the fountain with new eyes. They saw the beauty and the wisdom of Mr. Jones. They felt happy and inspired. They held hands and walked to the swings. They still had time to play.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big chair in the living room. It is soft and blue and has a pillow.
+
+"Let's use the chair for our game!" Tom says. He climbs on the chair and pretends to be a king. He holds a book as a crown and says, "I am the king of the chair! You are my queen, Lily!"
+
+Lily wants to use the chair too. She tries to climb on the chair, but Tom pushes her away. "No, Lily, this is my chair! You can't use it!" he says. He is not nice.
+
+Lily is sad and angry. She cries and runs to her mom. Her mom hugs her and says, "What's wrong, Lily?"
+
+"Tom is mean! He won't let me use the chair! He pushed me!" Lily says.
+
+Her mom says, "That's not nice, Tom. You should share the chair with Lily. She is your friend. How would you feel if she did that to you?"
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He feels sorry. He knows he was wrong. He gets off the chair and goes to Lily. He says, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was mean. You can use the chair with me. Do you want to be my queen?"
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Yes, Tom. I want to be your queen. Thank you for saying sorry. You are my friend."
+
+They hug and go back to the chair. They use the chair for their game. They take turns being the king and the queen. They have fun and are happy.
+One day, a little boy named Tom and his dog Spot went to the park. They liked to play with the ball and run on the grass. But Tom was sleepy, so he sat on a bench and closed his eyes. Spot saw a squirrel and wanted to chase it. He pulled on his leash and made it break. Then he ran after the squirrel.
+
+"Spot, come back!" Tom shouted. He opened his eyes and saw his dog escape. He was scared and sad. He got up and ran after Spot. He hoped he could find him.
+
+Spot followed the squirrel to a big tree. He barked and jumped, but he could not catch it. The squirrel climbed up the tree and laughed. Spot was angry and tired. He looked around and saw Tom. He wagged his tail and ran to him.
+
+"Spot, I'm so glad you're here!" Tom said. He hugged his dog and put the leash back on. He was happy and relieved. He said sorry to the squirrel and thanked it for leading him to Spot.
+
+"Let's go home, Spot," Tom said. "We're both sleepy and hungry. We had enough adventure for today." Spot agreed and licked Tom's face. They walked home together, holding the leash and the ball. They were happy and safe. Nothing bad happened to them.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to slide, swing and run on the grass. But it was a very hot day and they felt thirsty and sweaty. They wanted some water and ice cream.
+
+"Mom, can we have some water and ice cream?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. Let's go to the shop and buy some," mom said.
+
+They walked to the shop, but there was a long line of people waiting. Ben and Lily were impatient and bored. They started to whine and tug at mom's hand.
+
+"Mom, we want water and ice cream now!" Lily said.
+
+"Please wait a little bit, sweetie. We'll get them soon," mom said.
+
+But then they smelled something very bad. It was a big garbage truck that parked next to the shop. It was full of smelly trash and flies. Ben and Lily wrinkled their noses and covered their mouths.
+
+"Yuck! What is that?" Ben said.
+
+"That's the garbage truck. It takes away the trash from the park," mom said.
+
+But the garbage truck made a loud noise. It started to dump the trash into a big hole. The trash fell down with a crash and a splash. Ben and Lily were scared and surprised. They screamed and hugged mom.
+
+"Mom, make it stop!" Lily said.
+
+"It's okay, honey. It's just the garbage truck doing its job. It will go away soon," mom said.
+
+She tried to calm them down and distract them. She pointed to the shop and said, "Look, the line is moving. We can get our water and ice cream soon. What flavor do you want?"
+
+Ben and Lily stopped screaming and looked at the shop. They saw many colors of ice cream in the window. They forgot about the garbage truck and smiled.
+
+"I want chocolate!" Ben said.
+
+"I want strawberry!" Lily said.
+
+"Okay, let's go get them. And don't forget to say thank you to the shopkeeper," mom said.
+
+They walked to the shop and bought their water and ice cream. They sat on a bench and enjoyed their treats. They felt cool and happy. They did not mind the heat and the smell anymore. They thanked mom and the shopkeeper. They finished their water and ice cream and threw away their cups and spoons in the trash can. They hoped the garbage truck would not come back. They went back to the park and played some more. They had a fun day.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the snow. They want to make an igloo, like the ones they saw in a book. They roll big balls of snow and stack them together. They make a hole for the door and crawl inside.
+
+"Wow, this is so cool!" Sara says. "We have our own house!"
+
+Ben nods. He likes the igloo too. He sees a small window in the wall. He looks outside and sees a man walking by. The man has a big bag on his back and a dirty hat on his head. He looks angry and mean.
+
+"Who is that?" Ben asks.
+
+Sara shrugs. She does not know the man. She does not like his face. She hopes he will go away.
+
+The man stops near the igloo. He sees the window and the door. He smiles a wicked smile. He thinks the igloo is his. He wants to take it.
+
+"Hey, kids!" he shouts. "Get out of my igloo!"
+
+Sara and Ben are scared. They do not want to leave their igloo. They worked hard to make it.
+
+"No, this is our igloo!" Sara says. "We made it!"
+
+The man laughs. He does not care. He walks to the door and tries to push it open. Sara and Ben push back. They do not let him in.
+
+"Go away!" Ben says. "This is not your igloo!"
+
+The man is angry. He kicks the door. He breaks some snow. He makes a hole.
+
+"Give me your igloo or I will break it all!" he says. "You have to pay me!"
+
+Sara and Ben are very scared. They do not have anything to pay him. They only have their hats and gloves and scarves. They do not want to give them to him. They do not want to lose their igloo.
+
+They look at each other. They have an idea. They whisper to each other. They nod.
+
+"Okay, okay, we will pay you," Sara says. "But you have to come inside first."
+
+The man is happy. He thinks he has won. He crawls through the hole. He enters the igloo.
+
+But Sara and Ben are ready. They have a big pile of snow in their hands. They throw it at the man. They cover him with snow. They make him wet and cold and filthy.
+
+"Take that!" Sara says.
+
+"Leave us alone!" Ben says.
+
+The man is shocked. He is angry. He is miserable. He tries to get up. He tries to get out. But he is stuck. He cannot move. He cannot see. He cannot breathe.
+
+He cries for help. He begs for mercy. He says he is sorry.
+
+But Sara and Ben do not listen. They do not care. They are happy. They have their igloo. They have their fun.
+
+They laugh and hug. They are proud. They are brave.
+
+They have paid the man.
+Tom and Mia were twins who liked to play in the water. They had a big pool in their backyard, where they could swim and splash and dive. They loved to dive under the water and see who could hold their breath longer. They also liked to pretend they were fish or sharks or dolphins.
+
+One day, their mom told them to stay out of the pool while she went to the kitchen to make lunch. She said the pool was too deep and cold for them to play without her. But Tom and Mia did not listen. They thought they were big enough to play by themselves. They put on their swimsuits and ran to the pool.
+
+They jumped into the water and started to dive. They had fun for a while, but then Mia got tired. She wanted to get out of the pool and rest. She told Tom to come with her, but he said no. He wanted to dive some more. He said he could dive deeper and longer than Mia. He said he was not afraid of anything.
+
+Mia got out of the pool and sat on a chair. She watched Tom dive again and again. She saw him go down to the bottom of the pool and stay there for a long time. She started to worry. She called his name, but he did not answer. She called louder, but he still did not answer. She ran to the kitchen and told their mom.
+
+Their mom dropped everything and ran to the pool. She saw Tom lying on the bottom of the pool, not moving. She screamed and jumped into the water. She pulled Tom out of the pool and tried to wake him up. She called for help, but it was too late. Tom was gone.
+
+Mia cried and cried. She wished she had listened to their mom. She wished she had stopped Tom from diving. She wished she could have her brother back. She learned a terrible lesson that day. She learned that diving can be dangerous, and that she should always obey her mom.
+
+The moral of the story is: Listen to your mom and don't dive without her. Diving can be fun, but it can also be deadly.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play and learn new things. One evening, they learn how to make cookies with Mom. Mom shows them how to mix the flour, the sugar, the butter and the eggs. She tells them to be careful with the oven, because it is very hot.
+
+Sara and Ben help Mom put the cookie dough on the baking sheet. They make different shapes with the dough. Sara makes a star, a heart and a flower. Ben makes a circle, a square and a triangle. They are very proud of their shapes.
+
+Mom puts the baking sheet in the oven. She sets the timer for ten minutes. She tells Sara and Ben to wait and watch. Sara and Ben sit on the kitchen floor. They smell the cookies. They are very hungry.
+
+The timer rings. Mom takes the baking sheet out of the oven. She puts it on the counter. She tells Sara and Ben to be careful, because the cookies are very hot. She lets them cool for a few minutes. Then she gives Sara and Ben each a cookie. They taste the cookies. They are very yummy.
+
+Sara and Ben smile and hug Mom. They say thank you. They learn how to make cookies. They are very happy.
+Anna was shy. She did not like to talk to other kids. She liked to play with her rubber duck. She called him Ducky. Ducky was her best friend.
+
+One day, Anna went to the park with her mom. She saw a big slide. She wanted to try it. She took Ducky with her. She climbed up the ladder. She was scared, but she wanted to be brave.
+
+She sat on the slide. She held Ducky tight. She slid down fast. She felt happy. She laughed. But then, something bad happened. Ducky flew out of her hand. He landed on the grass. A big dog saw him. The dog ran to Ducky. He grabbed him with his mouth. He bit him hard.
+
+Anna saw what happened. She cried. She ran to Ducky. She tried to get him back. But the dog was stronger. He shook Ducky. He tore him apart. Anna suffered. She lost her best friend.
+
+"Stop! Stop! Give me back my Ducky!" Anna shouted.
+
+"Anna, honey, I'm sorry. The dog is mean. He doesn't know how to share. Come here, sweetie. I'll hug you." Mom said.
+
+Mom ran to Anna. She picked her up. She hugged her. She kissed her. She tried to make her feel better. She said they would get a new Ducky. But Anna did not want a new Ducky. She wanted her old Ducky. She was sad. She missed him. She wished he was still with her.
+Anna liked to balance on the wall by the pond. She felt like a bird or a dancer when she did that. She was careful not to fall in the water, because she did not like to get wet. She knew her mom would be angry if she got wet.
+
+One day, she saw a duck in the pond. The duck was swimming and quacking and splashing. Anna wanted to say hello to the duck. She leaned over the wall and waved her hand. The duck looked at her and quacked louder. Anna smiled and waved more.
+
+But then, she lost her balance. She felt herself tipping over the wall. She screamed and tried to grab something. But it was too late. She fell in the water with a big splash. The water was cold and wet and deep. She was scared and confused. She did not know what to do.
+
+The duck was confused too. It did not expect to see a girl in the water. It swam away from her and hid behind some reeds. It did not want to play with her anymore.
+
+Anna heard her mom's voice. Her mom had seen her fall in the water. She ran to the pond and jumped in. She grabbed Anna and pulled her out. She hugged her and asked her if she was okay. Anna was crying and shivering. She said she was sorry and that she just wanted to say hello to the duck. Her mom said it was okay and that she loved her. She wrapped her in a towel and took her home. She said they would have some hot chocolate and a story. Anna felt better and said she loved her mom too. She said she would not balance on the wall again. She said she would just watch the duck from far away.
+Tom and Jen like to polish their bikes. They use a cloth and some soap to make them shiny and clean. They are proud of their bikes and want to show them to their friends.
+
+One day, the weather is sunny and warm. Tom and Jen decide to go for a ride in the park. They put on their helmets and gloves and pedal fast. They see their friends playing on the swings and slides. They wave and smile.
+
+But then, something funny happens. A big cloud comes and covers the sun. It starts to rain hard. The rain makes the ground wet and slippery. Tom and Jen try to stop their bikes, but they slide and fall. Their bikes get dirty and scratched. Their clothes get wet and muddy. Their helmets and gloves get lost. They cry and hurt.
+
+Their friends run to help them. They are sorry and kind. They give them hugs and band-aids. They offer to share their toys and snacks. But Tom and Jen are still sad. They wish they had not polished their bikes. They wish they had stayed home. They think the weather is mean and the rain is not funny. They want to go back and polish their bikes again.
+Anna and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat some food. They saw a big cake on the table. It looked yummy.
+
+"Can we have some cake, please?" they asked Mom.
+
+Mom said, "No, not now. The cake is for later. You have to eat your lunch first."
+
+Anna and Ben did not like their lunch. It was green and mushy. They made faces and said, "Yuck!"
+
+Mom said, "That is rude. You have to eat what I give you. It is good for you."
+
+Anna and Ben did not listen. They waited for Mom to go to the phone. Then they ran to the table and grabbed the cake. They took big bites and smiled.
+
+But the cake was not yummy. It was sour and bitter. It made their mouths hurt. They spit it out and said, "Blech!"
+
+Mom came back and saw the mess. She was angry. She said, "What did you do? You ruined the cake. It was not ready. It had to turn in the oven. Now it is bad. And you wasted the food."
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We were hungry. We wanted some cake. We did not know it had to turn."
+
+Mom said, "You should have waited. And you should have been polite. You have to respect the food. And you have to respect me. Now you have to clean up and go to your room. No cake for you today."
+
+Anna and Ben cried. They learned their lesson. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We love you. And we love the food. Next time we will be good."
+Tom and Sue like to play outside. They have a big yard with a swing and a slide. They also have a dog named Spot. Spot is brown and furry. He likes to run and bark and chase balls.
+
+One day, Tom and Sue see a big balloon in the sky. It is red and yellow and blue. It looks like a rainbow. They want to see it closer. They run to the fence and climb over it. They do not tell their mom. They do not see the sign that says "Danger".
+
+Spot follows them. He is a good dog. He wants to stay with them. He barks and wags his tail. He does not see the sign either.
+
+The balloon is in a field. There are many wires and poles in the field. They are for electricity. They are very dangerous. Tom and Sue do not know that. They run to the balloon. They want to touch it.
+
+Spot sees a big flash. He hears a loud boom. He smells something bad. He sees Tom and Sue fall down. They do not move. They do not talk. They do not play. They are hurt. Spot is scared. He runs to them. He licks their faces. He whines and cries. He wants them to wake up. He wants them to stay with him. But they do not. They are gone. Spot is alone. He is sad. He is a good dog. But he has no friends. The end.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with cars and dolls. One day, they find a big case in the park. The case is red and shiny. It has a lock on it.
+
+"Wow, look at this case!" Tom says. "I wonder what is inside."
+
+"Maybe it has toys or candy," Anna says. "Let's open it and see."
+
+They try to open the lock, but it is too hard. They need a key. They look around, but they cannot find a key.
+
+"I have an idea," Tom says. "We can share the case. You can have it today, and I can have it tomorrow. Then we can take turns until we find the key."
+
+"OK, that sounds fair," Anna says. "But I am hungry. Can we go and get a snack first?"
+
+"Sure, let's go," Tom says. "Maybe we can ask Mom or Dad for a key later."
+
+They leave the case in the park and run to the store. They buy some cookies and milk. They share the cookies and milk. They are happy and full.
+
+They go back to the park to get the case. But the case is gone. Someone else has taken it.
+
+"Oh no, where is our case?" Tom says. "Who took it?"
+
+"I don't know," Anna says. "Maybe it was a bad person. Or maybe it was a magic case that flew away."
+
+They are sad and angry. They cry and hug each other.
+
+"Maybe we should have opened it when we found it," Tom says.
+
+"Maybe we should have taken it with us," Anna says.
+
+They learn a lesson. They learn that sharing is good, but sometimes you have to be careful with your things. They also learn that cases can have secrets. They wonder what was inside the case. They never find out.
+Tom likes to play with his toy car. His toy car can move and make noises. It needs a battery to do that. Tom has a battery in his toy box. He wants to put the battery in his toy car.
+
+He opens his toy box and looks for the battery. He sees many things in his toy box. He sees his blocks, his ball, his teddy bear, his books. But he does not see the battery. He feels sad. Where is the battery?
+
+He remembers that his mom has a battery in her phone. He thinks maybe he can use that battery for his toy car. He goes to his mom's room and sees her phone on the table. He tries to take the phone, but it is fragile. It breaks into pieces. He sees the battery inside the phone. He takes the battery and runs to his toy car.
+
+He puts the battery in his toy car and turns it on. It moves and makes noises. He feels happy. He plays with his toy car on the floor. He does not see his mom coming into the room. He does not see her face when she sees her broken phone. He does not hear her voice when she says his name. He only sees his toy car.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. They also liked to look at the animals that lived in the park. There were birds, squirrels, rabbits and deer.
+
+"Look, mom, a deer!" Ben shouted, pointing to a brown animal with big ears and antlers. "Can we go and say hello?"
+
+Mom smiled and nodded. "Yes, but we have to be very quiet and gentle. Deer are shy and can run away if they are scared."
+
+Anna and Ben followed mom to the deer. They saw that the deer was lying on the grass, with its eyes closed. It was taking a nap.
+
+"Shh, the deer is sleeping," mom whispered. "Let's not wake it up."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They sat down on the grass near the deer and watched it. They saw that the deer was breathing slowly and peacefully. They wondered what the deer was dreaming about.
+
+"Mom, do deer have friends?" Anna asked softly.
+
+"Yes, they do," mom said. "Deer live in groups called herds. They depend on each other for safety and food. They are very dependable animals."
+
+"Like us?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, like us," mom said. "We are a family, and we depend on each other too. We are also dependable."
+
+Anna and Ben smiled. They felt happy and safe with mom and the deer. They decided to take a nap too, next to the deer. They closed their eyes and dreamed of running and playing with the deer in the park.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the garden. They had a hose that made water come out. They used the hose to water the flowers and the grass. Sometimes they made rainbows with the water and the sun.
+
+One day, they saw a big spider on the fence. It had eight legs and many eyes. Ben and Lily were scared of the spider. They did not want it to come near them. They ran away from the fence and hid behind a tree.
+
+But then they had an idea. They could use the hose to make the spider go away. They were brave and gathered their courage. They took the hose and aimed it at the spider. They turned on the water and sprayed the spider. The spider did not like the water. It ran away from the fence and into the bushes.
+
+Ben and Lily cheered. They had made the spider go away. They were brave and clever. They hugged each other and went back to playing with the hose. They had fun in the garden.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in the bath. They have a big sack full of toys. They have boats, ducks, balls and bubbles.
+
+One day, Anna wants to play with the shampoo. She thinks it is fun to make foam on her hair. She takes the shampoo from the shelf and squeezes it hard. The shampoo comes out fast and makes a big mess. It gets in her eyes and nose. It makes her cry.
+
+Ben hears Anna cry and comes to help. He sees the shampoo everywhere. He is angry. He says, "Anna, you are naughty! You wasted the shampoo and made a mess. Now we have no shampoo to wash our hair. And you hurt yourself. You are silly!"
+
+Anna feels sorry. She says, "Ben, I am sorry. I just wanted to play. I did not mean to waste the shampoo and make a mess. And I did not mean to hurt myself. Please forgive me."
+
+Ben sees that Anna is sorry. He is not angry anymore. He says, "Anna, I forgive you. But you have to be careful. Shampoo is not a toy. It is for washing our hair. And it can hurt your eyes and nose. Next time, ask me before you use it. OK?"
+
+Anna nods. She says, "OK, Ben. Thank you for forgiving me. And thank you for helping me. You are a good brother. I love you."
+
+Ben smiles. He says, "I love you too, Anna. Come on, let's clean up the mess and wash our hair. Then we can play with our toys in the sack. OK?"
+
+Anna smiles. She says, "OK, Ben. That sounds fun. Let's do that."
+
+They hug and clean up the mess. Then they wash their hair and play with their toys in the sack. They have fun and learn a lesson. They learn to be careful with shampoo and to say sorry when they make a mistake. They also learn to forgive and to help each other. They are happy twins.

+
+There, in a pen, was a big, brown turkey. He had a red wattle and a fan of feathers. He gobbled loudly when he saw them. Lily and Max gasped. They had never seen a real turkey before.
+
+"Wow, Grandma, he's so big and noisy!" Max said.
+
+"Can we pet him, Grandma?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. His name is Tom. He's very friendly and gentle. He likes to be scratched under his chin," Grandma said. She opened the pen and let them in. Lily and Max approached Tom slowly. They reached out their hands and touched his soft feathers. Tom gobbled again and tilted his head. He seemed to like them.
+
+Lily and Max giggled. They thought Tom was adorable. They played with him for a while, feeding him corn and stroking his back. They forgot all about the feast.
+
+"Guess what, kids?" Mom called from the house. "It's time to eat. Come on, let's go inside."
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other. They looked at Tom. They felt sad. They didn't want to leave him.
+
+"Can we take him home, Grandma?" Lily asked.
+
+"Please, Grandma, can we?" Max begged.
+
+Grandma smiled. She had a secret. She said, "Guess what, kids? Tom is not our dinner. He's our new pet. I adopted him from a farm that rescues turkeys. He's going to live with me and keep me company. You can visit him anytime you want."
+
+Lily and Max cheered. They hugged Grandma and Tom. They were so happy. They ran inside to join the feast. They ate mashed potatoes, green beans, cranberry sauce, and tofu roast. They saved some for Tom, too. They had a lot to be thankful for.

+

+
+The next day, Lily went back to the park. She saw the same dog with her ball. She walked up to the dog and said, "Excuse me, can I have my ball back please?" The dog barked and dropped the ball.

+Anna was scared and sad. She ran inside and told her mom. Her mom hugged her and said, "Don't mind him, sweetie. He is just a grumpy old man. He doesn't know how to have fun. You can pretend whatever you want. You are a wonderful fairy."
+
+The next day, Anna went back to the garden. She saw the man again. He was sitting on a bench. He looked sad and lonely. He had no friends. Anna felt sorry for him. She had an idea.
+
+She flew over to him and said, "Hello, sir. I am a fairy. I can make your wish come true. What do you wish for?"
+
+The man was surprised and curious. He said, "You are a fairy? Really? Well, I wish I had someone to talk to. I am very lonely."
+
+Anna smiled and said, "That is an easy wish. I can be your friend. And I can introduce you to other fairies. They are very nice. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The man hesitated and then nodded. He said, "Yes, I do. Thank you, fairy. You are very kind."
+
+Anna took his hand and led him to the garden. She gave him a pair of wings and a wand. She said, "Now you can pretend you are a fairy too. It is fun. You will see."
+
+The man smiled and said, "Okay, I will try. Maybe you are right. Maybe fairies are real."
+
+They flew around the garden and made magic. They laughed and talked. They became friends. Anna was happy. The man was happy. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. Lily has a new bracelet that her mom gave her. It is shiny and has many colors. Lily likes to hear the bracelet make noise when she moves her arm.
+
+"Look at my bracelet, Ben!" Lily says. "It is so pretty and loud!"
+
+Ben looks at the bracelet. He does not like it. He thinks it is stupid and noisy. He wants to play with his truck.
+
+"Your bracelet is stupid, Lily," Ben says. "It is too bright and it hurts my ears. I don't want to play with you."
+
+Lily feels sad and angry. She likes her bracelet and she wants to play with Ben. She does not think her bracelet is stupid.
+
+"My bracelet is not stupid, Ben," Lily says. "It is beautiful and fun. You are stupid and mean. I don't want to play with you either."
+
+Lily and Ben turn away from each other. They play by themselves. They do not talk or look at each other. They do not have fun.
+
+After a while, Lily and Ben hear a voice. It is their mom. She has come to pick them up.
+
+"Time to go home, kids," their mom says. "Did you have a good time?"
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry. They do not want to be mad at each other. They want to be friends.
+
+"Sorry, Lily," Ben says. "Your bracelet is not stupid. It is pretty. Can I see it?"
+
+"Sorry, Ben," Lily says. "You are not stupid. You are nice. Can I play with your truck?"
+
+Lily and Ben smile at each other. They show each other their toys. They hug and say goodbye.
+
+"Bye, Lily," Ben says. "See you tomorrow."
+
+"Bye, Ben," Lily says. "See you tomorrow."
+
+Lily and Ben go home with their mom. They are happy. They have learned to be kind and share.
+Lily and Sam were playing with their toys on the floor. They had many different animals, like bears, dogs, cats, and birds. Lily liked to match the animals with their sounds. She picked up a bear and said, "Roar!" Sam picked up a dog and said, "Woof!"
+
+Then Lily saw a new toy that she had never seen before. It was gray and had a round head, a long nose, and flippers. "What is this?" she asked Sam.
+
+Sam shrugged. He did not know either. He looked at the tag on the toy. It said, "Seal". "Maybe it is a seal," he said.
+
+"A seal?" Lily repeated. "What does a seal do?"
+
+Sam thought for a moment. He remembered seeing a picture of a seal in a book. It was in the water, with ice and snow. "I think a seal lives in the cold and swims a lot," he said.
+
+Lily nodded. She wondered what a seal sounded like. She decided to try. She put the seal toy to her mouth and made a noise. "Oooh, oooh, oooh!"
+
+Sam laughed. He thought Lily sounded funny. He picked up another seal toy and joined her. "Oooh, oooh, oooh!"
+
+They made seal noises for a while, until they heard a knock on the door. It was their mom. She came in with a smile and a big bag. "Hello, my little seals," she said. "I have a surprise for you."
+
+She opened the bag and took out two jackets. They were fluffy and white, like snow. "These are for you," she said. "We are going to the zoo today, and I heard they have a new exhibit. Do you want to guess what it is?"
+
+Lily and Sam looked at each other. They had a feeling they knew the answer. They held up their seal toys and said together, "Seals!"
+
+Mom nodded and hugged them. "That's right. We are going to see some real seals. Maybe they will make the same noise as you. Are you ready to go?"
+
+Lily and Sam nodded excitedly. They put on their jackets and grabbed their seal toys. They could not wait to see the mysterious animals that matched their toys and their sounds. They followed Mom to the car, saying, "Oooh, oooh, oooh!" all the way.
+Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys and their dog, Spot. But sometimes they fight over who gets what. Lily wants to play with the big red car. Tom wants to play with the big red car too. They both pull on the car and yell.
+
+"Mine!" Lily says.
+
+"No, mine!" Tom says.
+
+Spot barks and runs around them. He wants to play too. He sees a blue rope on the floor. He picks it up with his mouth and shakes it. He is happy.
+
+Lily and Tom stop fighting. They look at Spot. They see the blue rope. They both want the blue rope now. They let go of the car and run to Spot. They try to grab the rope from his mouth.
+
+"Mine!" Lily says.
+
+"No, mine!" Tom says.
+
+Spot growls and runs away. He does not want to share. He is jealous.
+
+Lily and Tom chase Spot. They run around the house. They make a lot of noise. They knock over a lamp and a vase. They make a mess.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to see what is going on. She sees Lily and Tom and Spot and the mess. She is not happy.
+
+"Stop!" Mom says. "What are you doing?"
+
+Lily and Tom look at Mom. They feel bad. They say sorry.
+
+Mom tells them to clean up the mess. She tells them to share their toys and the rope. She tells them to be nice to Spot. She tells them to tie their shoes.
+
+Lily and Tom nod. They do what Mom says. They clean up the mess. They share their toys and the rope. They are nice to Spot. They tie their shoes.
+
+Spot wags his tail. He is happy. He likes to play with Lily and Tom. He likes to share. He is not jealous.
+
+The end.
+Sara liked to play dress-up with her colorful clothes. She had many dresses, hats, shoes and scarves in her closet. She liked to twist and turn in front of the mirror and pretend she was a princess or a fairy.
+
+One day, she heard a knock on her door. It was her friend Ben, who lived next door. He wanted to play with her.
+
+"Hi, Sara, can I come in?" he asked.
+
+"Sure, Ben, come on in. Do you want to play dress-up with me?" she said.
+
+"Yes, that sounds fun. What are you wearing?" he said.
+
+Sara showed him her pink dress, her purple hat, her yellow shoes and her green scarf. She looked very colorful.
+
+"I am a fairy princess. I can make magic with my scarf. Watch!" she said. She waved her scarf and twisted around.
+
+"Wow, that's cool. Can I try?" he said.
+
+Sara nodded and gave him her scarf. Ben put on a blue shirt, a red cap, a brown belt and a pair of boots. He looked very silly.
+
+"I am a cowboy. I can lasso anything with my scarf. Watch!" he said. He swung his scarf and twisted around.
+
+They both laughed and played dress-up for a long time. They had fun trying on different clothes and making up stories. They were very happy.
+Anna and Ben were hungry. They had no food at home. Their mom and dad went away and did not come back. They were scared and sad.
+
+They decided to go outside and look for food. They saw a big house with a garden. They smelled something good. They walked to the house and knocked on the door.
+
+A mean lady opened the door. She looked angry. She said, "What do you want? Go away!"
+
+"Please, we are hungry. Can we have some food?" Anna asked.
+
+The lady smiled. She said, "Oh, you poor things. Come in, come in. I have some food for you."
+
+She took them to the kitchen. She gave them a bowl of soup and a slice of bread. They ate quickly. They felt better.
+
+The lady said, "Do you want more? I have some cake and candy in the basement. Follow me."
+
+She led them to the basement. It was dark and cold. There were no windows. There were many cages with animals inside. The animals looked scared and hurt. They made loud noises.
+
+Anna and Ben felt something was wrong. They wanted to go back. They said, "No, thank you. We want to leave."
+
+The lady said, "No, you can't leave. You are my food now. I will keep you here and eat you later."
+
+She locked them in a cage. They cried and screamed. They tried to break the cage, but it was too hard. They hugged each other and hoped for help. But no one came. The lady laughed and said, "Good night, my sweet snacks. I will comfort you with my teeth and stomach."
+Tom was a popular kid at school. He had many friends who liked to play with him. He was good at running, jumping and singing. He was also kind and helpful to others.
+
+One day, Tom and his friends went to the park after school. They saw a big slide, a swing and a sandbox. They ran to the slide and took turns to slide down. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud cry. They looked around and saw a little girl on the swing. She was stuck and scared. She could not get off the swing by herself. She cried for help.
+
+Tom and his friends ran to the swing. Tom said, "Don't worry, we will rescue you. Hold on tight." He climbed up the swing and reached for the girl. He helped her get off the swing and hugged her. She stopped crying and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Tom. You are very brave and nice. What is your name?" the girl asked.
+
+"I'm Tom. And these are my friends. What is your name?" Tom asked.
+
+"I'm Lily. I'm new here. I don't have any friends yet. Can I play with you?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course you can. You are our friend now. Come on, let's go to the sandbox. We can make a castle together." Tom said.
+
+Tom and his friends took Lily to the sandbox. They played and laughed together. They made a big and beautiful castle. They had a wonderful time.
+
+Tom was a popular kid at school. He had many friends who liked to play with him. He was also a hero who rescued Lily from the swing. He was happy and proud.
+Lily likes to sign. She signs hello, thank you, and sorry. She signs to her mom, her dad, and her cat. She signs because she cannot hear. She is deaf.
+
+Lily goes to school. She has a teach who signs too. Her teach helps her learn new signs and new things. Lily likes her teach and her friends. They sign and play together.
+
+But one day, a new boy comes to school. His name is Max. He does not sign. He talks with his mouth. He has black hair and black eyes. He looks at Lily and laughs. He says she is weird. He says she is dumb. He makes fun of her signs.
+
+Lily feels sad and angry. She does not like Max. She does not want to play with him. She tells her teach what Max says. Her teach talks to Max. She tells him to be nice. She tells him to learn some signs. She tells him that Lily is smart and kind.
+
+Max does not listen. He keeps being mean. He pushes Lily and takes her toys. He says he does not care about signs. He says he is better than Lily.
+
+Lily cries. She runs away. She hides in the corner. She does not want to sign anymore. She does not want to go to school anymore. She wishes Max would go away.
+Anna and Ben want to make a card for Mom. They have paper, crayons, glue and stickers. They sit on the floor and start to draw.
+
+"I will make a flower for Mom," Anna says. She draws a big circle and some small lines. "This is easy."
+
+"I will make a car for Mom," Ben says. He draws a rectangle and four circles. "This is difficult."
+
+"Why is it difficult?" Anna asks.
+
+"Because I need to make the wheels round and the same size," Ben says. He tries to fix his drawing, but he is not happy.
+
+Anna looks at Ben's card. She thinks it is good. She has an idea.
+
+"Ben, do you want some help?" she asks.
+
+"Yes, please," Ben says.
+
+Anna takes a sticker and puts it on Ben's car. It is a star. "Now your car has a special light," she says.
+
+Ben smiles. He likes the sticker. He takes another sticker and puts it on Anna's flower. It is a heart. "Now your flower has a special center," he says.
+
+Anna smiles. She likes the sticker. They finish their cards and write "I love you, Mom" on them. They are proud of their cards. They hope Mom will like them too.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and eat rice. But they do not like to clean up their toys and rice. They leave them on the floor and on the table. Mom and Dad are not happy.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad say, "Anna and Ben, you need to talk to each other and decide who will clean up the toys and who will clean up the rice. If you do not, you will not get any dessert."
+
+Anna and Ben look at each other. They do not want to miss dessert. They love dessert. But they do not want to clean up either. They start to argue.
+
+"I will clean up the toys, you clean up the rice," says Anna.
+
+"No, I will clean up the toys, you clean up the rice," says Ben.
+
+They go back and forth. They do not listen to each other. They do not talk nicely. They raise their voices and make faces.
+
+Mom and Dad hear them and shake their heads. They say, "Anna and Ben, you are not talking, you are fighting. Fighting is not good. Fighting does not solve anything. Fighting makes things worse. You need to talk calmly and politely. You need to listen and respect each other. You need to cooperate and share. That is how you can solve problems and be happy."
+
+Anna and Ben stop fighting. They feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom and Dad. We were not talking, we were fighting. Fighting is not good. Fighting does not solve anything. Fighting makes things worse. We want to talk calmly and politely. We want to listen and respect each other. We want to cooperate and share. That is how we can solve problems and be happy."
+
+Mom and Dad smile and hug them. They say, "We are proud of you, Anna and Ben. You have learned a valuable lesson. Now, please clean up the toys and the rice together. Then you can have dessert."
+
+Anna and Ben nod and smile. They say, "Okay, Mom and Dad. We will clean up the toys and the rice together. Then we can have dessert."
+
+They pick up their toys and put them in the box. They wipe the table and throw away the rice. They work together and help each other. They finish quickly and neatly. They are happy.
+
+Mom and Dad give them dessert. They say, "Good job, Anna and Ben. You have done a great job. You have talked, listened, respected, cooperated and shared. You have been good twins. You have made us happy. Enjoy your dessert."
+
+Anna and Ben say, "Thank you, Mom and Dad. You have taught us a great lesson. We have talked, listened, respected, cooperated and shared. We have been good twins. We have made you happy. We love you and we love our dessert."
+
+They eat their dessert and hug each other. They are happy.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a birdcage hanging from a tree. Inside the birdcage, there was a blue bird. The bird looked sad and lonely.
+
+"Let's free the bird!" Tim said. "He wants to fly and sing with his friends."
+
+"But how?" Lily asked. "The birdcage is too high and the door is locked."
+
+Tim had an idea. He ran to the shed and found a ladder and a pair of scissors. He carried them to the tree and set up the ladder. He climbed up carefully and reached the birdcage.
+
+"Hello, bird," Tim said in a gentle voice. "Don't be scared. I'm here to help you."
+
+The bird looked at Tim with curiosity and hope. Tim used the scissors to cut the wire that held the door. He opened the door and waited. The bird hesitated for a moment, then flew out of the cage. He circled around Tim and Lily, chirping happily.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" the bird said. "You are very kind and brave. You have succeeded in freeing me. I will never forget you."
+
+Tim and Lily smiled and waved at the bird. They felt happy and proud. They had done a good thing. They watched the bird fly away to join his friends in the sky.
+Tom and Lily liked to play at the beach. They liked to make sand castles and look for shells. One day, they saw some people riding on the big waves. They had long boards that they called surf boards.
+
+"Wow, that looks fun!" Lily said. "I want to try that!"
+
+Tom was scared of the big waves. He thought they were too loud and too fast. He said, "No, Lily, that is too hard. We are too small. We might fall and get hurt."
+
+Lily saw a man who had a surf board and a friendly smile. He was very attractive, with brown hair and blue eyes. He came over to them and said, "Hello, kids. Do you want to learn how to surf?"
+
+Lily nodded eagerly. Tom shook his head. The man said, "Don't worry, Tom. It's not as hard as it looks. I can teach you. I have a small surf board for you. It's very safe and fun. You just have to be brave and try."
+
+The man encouraged Tom to come with him and Lily. He showed them how to hold the surf board and how to paddle. He helped them catch a small wave and stand up on the board. Lily was very happy. She laughed and shouted, "Wee! This is awesome!"
+
+Tom was nervous at first. He felt the water splash on his face and the wind blow his hair. He thought he was going to fall. But he listened to the man and balanced on the board. He felt a thrill of excitement. He smiled and said, "Wow! This is cool!"
+
+The man was proud of them. He said, "You did great, kids. You are natural surfers. Do you want to try again?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They thanked the man and ran back to the water. They had a lot of fun surfing. They learned a new skill and made a new friend. They were glad they tried something new.
+Mia and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and eat jam on bread. One day, they find a big jar of jam in the kitchen. It is red and shiny and smells good.
+
+"Can we have some jam?" Mia asks Ben.
+
+"Yes, let's have some jam!" Ben says. They take two spoons and open the jar. They dip their spoons in the jam and lick them. The jam is sweet and sticky and yummy.
+
+But then, Mom comes into the kitchen. She sees Mia and Ben with the jam jar and the spoons. She is not happy.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing with my jam?" Mom says. "That is not your jam. That is my jam. It is my original jam. I made it myself with fresh berries. It belongs to me. You have to ask me before you take my jam."
+
+Mia and Ben feel sorry. They did not know that the jam was Mom's original jam. They thought it was just jam.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," Mia says. "We did not know. We like your jam. It is very good."
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," Ben says. "We did not know. Can we have some more jam, please?"
+
+Mom sighs. She loves Mia and Ben, but she is also proud of her jam. She decides to share her jam with them, but only a little bit.
+
+"Okay, you can have some more jam, but only a little bit," Mom says. "And next time, you have to ask me first. And you have to wash your spoons and your faces. You are very messy."
+
+Mia and Ben nod. They are happy that Mom is not angry. They have some more jam, but only a little bit. They wash their spoons and their faces. They hug Mom and thank her for her jam.
+
+Mom smiles. She is glad that Mia and Ben like her jam. She thinks that they are very sweet, even if they are sticky. She hugs them back and tells them that she loves them. They are her original children. They belong to her.
+Lily liked to study books. She had many books with pictures and words. She learned new things from books. She wanted to be smart and know many things.
+
+One day, she saw a big book on the shelf. It had a picture of a fierce lion on the cover. Lily wanted to study the book. She climbed on a chair and reached for the book. But the book was too heavy for her. It fell on her head and made a loud noise.
+
+Lily cried out in pain. She dropped the book and fell off the chair. She hurt her head and her arm. She was scared and sad.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, help me!" she shouted.
+
+Mommy heard Lily and ran to her. She saw the book and the chair and Lily on the floor. She was angry and worried.
+
+"Lily, what did you do? Why did you take that book? That book is not for you. It is for grown-ups. It is dangerous. You could have hurt yourself badly. You are a naughty girl. You are not smart. You are silly." Mommy said.
+
+She picked up Lily and took her to the bathroom. She cleaned her wounds and put a bandage on her head and her arm. She did not hug her or kiss her. She did not say sorry or I love you. She was still angry.
+
+Lily felt more pain in her heart than in her head and her arm. She wished she never saw the book. She wished she never tried to study it. She wished Mommy was not angry. She wished Mommy loved her. She wished she was smart and not silly.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big train set that their dad had made for them. They could make the train go fast or slow, and change the tracks to go different ways.
+
+One day, their cousin Sam came to visit. Sam was older and bigger than Lily and Tom, and he thought he knew everything. He looked at their train set and said, "This is a baby toy. It is too slow and boring. I have a better toy at home. It is a remote control car that can go very fast and make loud noises."
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and angry. They loved their train set and did not want Sam to spoil their fun. They said, "We don't care about your car. We like our train. It is not slow and boring. It is fun and exciting. You can play with us if you are nice, or you can go away if you are mean."
+
+Sam did not like their answer. He wanted to show them that he was better and smarter than them. He grabbed the train and tried to make it go faster. He pushed the buttons and turned the knobs, but he did not know how to use them. He broke the train and made it stop working. He laughed and said, "See? I told you it was a baby toy. It is easy to break. My car is much stronger and faster. You should play with me instead."
+
+Lily and Tom cried. They felt very sad and hurt. They had lost their favorite toy and their cousin had spoiled their spirit. They ran to their mom and told her what had happened. Their mom hugged them and said, "I'm sorry, my loves. Sam was very rude and mean. He should not have broken your train. He should have respected your feelings and your toys. He does not have a good spirit. He is selfish and unkind. You are not like him. You are sweet and gentle. You have a good spirit. You share and care. I am proud of you."
+
+Their mom helped them fix their train and gave them a new toy. It was a puzzle that they could make together. They thanked their mom and smiled. They felt happy and calm. They did not want to play with Sam anymore. They wanted to play with each other. They had fun and learned new things. They did not let Sam spoil their spirit. They were good twins.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were lions and chase each other. Sam was the big lion and Lily was the little lion. They ran and jumped and roared.
+
+"Roar! I am the king of the lions!" Sam said.
+
+"Roar! I am the queen of the lions!" Lily said.
+
+They came to a wall. It was tall and gray and hard. Sam wanted to climb over it and see what was on the other side. Lily did not want to. She was afraid of falling.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go over the wall!" Sam said.
+
+"No, Sam, it's too high and scary!" Lily said.
+
+Sam was stubborn. He did not listen to Lily. He tried to climb the wall. He put his paws on the bricks and pushed himself up. He was almost at the top when he slipped and fell. He landed on the grass with a thud. He hurt his knee and his elbow. He cried.
+
+Lily ran to him. She was worried. She hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Sam. Are you okay?"
+
+Sam sniffed and said, "I'm okay, Lily. But I was silly. I should have listened to you. The wall was too high and scary."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "It's okay, Sam. You are brave, but sometimes you are too stubborn. Next time, let's play somewhere else."
+
+They went back to their house. They washed their wounds and put on band-aids. They had some juice and cookies. They were still lions, but they were happy lions. They roared softly and cuddled.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big, wide tree with many apples. They picked some apples and ate them. They were sweet and juicy.
+
+But Ben was greedy. He wanted more apples than Lily. He hid some apples under his bed and did not share them. He thought he was smart and Lily was stupid.
+
+Lily asked him, "Ben, where are your apples? Did you eat them all?"
+
+Ben lied, "Yes, I ate them all. They were yummy. You are too slow, Lily. You should pick more apples next time."
+
+Lily was sad. She thought Ben was mean. She went to play with her doll.
+
+The next day, Ben wanted to eat more apples. He went to his bed and lifted the blanket. He saw his apples. But they were not sweet and juicy anymore. They were brown and soft and smelly. They had worms and flies on them. They had rotted.
+
+Ben was shocked. He felt sick. He cried, "Ew, ew, ew! My apples are bad! They are rotten! How did this happen?"
+
+Lily heard him and came to see. She saw his rotten apples and said, "Ben, you were greedy and selfish. You did not share your apples with me. You hid them under your bed. You lied to me. That is why your apples rotted. Rotten apples are for rotten boys."
+
+Ben felt ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You are right. I was greedy and selfish and I lied to you. That was not smart. That was stupid. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Yes, I can forgive you. But you have to learn to share and be honest. Sharing and honesty are good. Greed and lying are bad. Good apples are for good twins."
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. I will share and be honest from now on. Can we play in the garden together?"
+
+Lily hugged him. She said, "Yes, we can. Let's go and pick some fresh apples. But not too many. We have to leave some for the birds and the squirrels."
+
+They went to the garden and played happily. They learned their lesson. The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and bridges and castles. Sometimes they would knock them down and start again.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a big tower!" Ben said, showing his sister his blocks.
+
+"That's nice, Ben. Can I help you?" Lily asked, being polite.
+
+"Sure, Lily. You can put this block on top," Ben said, handing her a blue block.
+
+Lily took the block and tried to put it on the tower. But the tower was too high and wobbly. It fell down with a loud crash. The blocks scattered all over the floor.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben said together.
+
+They heard their mom coming from the kitchen. She looked at the mess and frowned.
+
+"What happened here?" she asked.
+
+"We were playing with the blocks, but they fell down," Lily said.
+
+"Did you snap at each other?" mom asked.
+
+"No, mom, we didn't snap. We were polite," Ben said.
+
+"That's good. But you need to clean up the blocks now. And then you need to go to the bathroom and wash your hands. It's almost time for lunch," mom said.
+
+"Okay, mom," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They picked up the blocks and put them in the box. Then they went to the bathroom and washed their hands. They were hungry and ready for lunch. They hoped mom would make their favorite sandwiches.
+Lily and Max were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for worms and bugs. Sometimes they found shiny stones or old coins. But today they found something different. It was a big, brown root that stuck out of the ground. It looked like a snake or a dragon.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Max said. "Let's pull it out and see what it is."
+
+Lily was not sure. She remembered what her mom had told her. "Don't pull out the roots of the plants. They need them to grow and be healthy. If you pull them out, they will die and be sad."
+
+"Maybe we should leave it alone," Lily said. "Mom said roots are important."
+
+Max did not listen. He was curious and wanted to have fun. He grabbed the root and pulled hard. It did not move. He pulled harder. It still did not move. He pulled even harder. It moved a little bit.
+
+"Ha, I got it!" Max said. "Come on, Lily, help me pull."
+
+Lily did not want to help. She was scared and worried. She looked around and saw a big tree near the root. The tree had green leaves and red apples. It looked happy and healthy. But it also looked familiar.
+
+"Max, stop!" Lily said. "That's the root of Mr. Brown's apple tree. He lives next door. He loves his apple tree. He said it was his best friend. He will be very angry if we pull out his root."
+
+Max did not care. He thought Mr. Brown was a grumpy old man who never smiled or played. He did not like him. He wanted to pull out his root and see what would happen.
+
+"Mr. Brown is a meanie," Max said. "He always yells at us and tells us to go away. He never lets us play with his apples. He does not deserve his root. I want to see what's at the end of it. Maybe it's a treasure or a monster."
+
+He pulled harder and harder. The root moved more and more. Lily heard a cracking sound. She saw the tree shake and sway. She saw the apples fall and roll. She saw Mr. Brown come out of his house and look at the tree. He saw the root and the children. He saw the mess and the damage. He was very angry.
+
+"Hey, you little rascals!" Mr. Brown shouted. "What are you doing to my tree? That's my root! That's my friend! How dare you pull it out and hurt it? Get away from there, or I'll call your parents!"
+
+Lily and Max were scared and sorry. They let go of the root and ran away. They did not want to face Mr. Brown or their parents. They knew they had done something bad. They wished they had listened to Lily's mom and left the root alone. They learned a lesson. They would never pull out a root again.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the park. One day, they see an elderly man with a big bag. The man is walking very slowly.
+
+"Look, Tim, what is in his bag?" Sam asks.
+
+"I don't know, Sam. Maybe it is beef. Beef is yummy," Tim says.
+
+They follow the man to his house. They want to see his beef. They step on the grass and the flowers. They are very quiet.
+
+The man opens his door and goes inside. He leaves his bag on the porch. Tim and Sam run to the bag. They open it.
+
+"Oh no, Tim, it is not beef. It is books. Books are boring," Sam says.
+
+"Shh, Sam, the man will hear us. Let's go back to the park," Tim says.
+
+But it is too late. The man comes out of his house. He sees Tim and Sam with his bag. He is angry.
+
+"Hey, you two, what are you doing with my bag? These are not beef, these are books. Books are not boring, they are fun. You should not step on the grass and the flowers, they are alive. You should say sorry," the man says.
+
+Tim and Sam are scared. They drop the bag and run away. They say sorry to the man. They go back to the park. They do not follow elderly men with big bags anymore. They play with their ball. They are happy.
+Tom and Sue were friends. They liked to play in the valley near their homes. The valley had many trees, flowers and animals. Sometimes they saw a little rabbit or a bird.
+
+One day, they saw a big dog in the valley. The dog was barking and running towards them. Tom and Sue were scared. They did not know the dog.
+
+"Run, Sue, run!" Tom said. He took Sue's hand and they ran away from the dog.
+
+They saw a big rock. They hid behind the rock. The dog could not see them.
+
+"Tom, I am afraid," Sue said. She hugged Tom.
+
+"Don't be afraid, Sue. I am here. I will protect you," Tom said. He hugged Sue back.
+
+"Tom, do you trust me?" Sue asked.
+
+"Yes, Sue, I trust you. You are my friend," Tom said.
+
+"Do you trust the dog?" Sue asked.
+
+"No, Sue, I don't trust the dog. The dog is not our friend," Tom said.
+
+They waited until the dog was gone. Then they came out from behind the rock. They looked around. The valley was quiet and beautiful again.
+
+"Let's go home, Tom," Sue said.
+
+"OK, Sue. Let's go home," Tom said.
+
+They held hands and walked back to their homes. They were happy and safe. They trusted each other.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play at the park. They loved to slide on the big slide, but sometimes they had to wait for their turn. One day, they saw a little slide that no one was using. It looked fun and easy.
+
+"Let's try the little slide!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Ben agreed.
+
+They ran to the little slide and climbed up the steps. They each had a number on their shirt. Lily had a four and Ben had a five. They decided to slide down in order of their numbers.
+
+"You go first, Lily. You have a four," Ben said.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend," Lily said. She slid down the little slide and smiled. It was fast and smooth.
+
+"Your turn, Ben. You have a five," Lily said.
+
+"Here I go!" Ben said. He slid down the little slide and laughed. It was fun and easy.
+
+They liked the little slide so much that they slid down again and again. They took turns and counted their numbers. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard a cry. It was Sam, a boy who was smaller than them. He wanted to slide on the little slide, but he was afraid of the big slide. He had a three on his shirt.
+
+"Can I slide with you?" Sam asked.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They liked the little slide, but they also wanted to be kind.
+
+"Sure, Sam. You can slide with us. You have a three, so you can go before us," Lily said.
+
+"Really? Thank you, Lily and Ben. You are nice friends," Sam said. He climbed up the steps and slid down the little slide. He was happy and proud.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They slid down the little slide with Sam and helped him count his number. They had even more fun.
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: Sharing and being kind to others makes everyone happy.
+
+Foreshadowing or setup and payoff: The numbers on the shirts set up the order of sliding and the introduction of Sam, who has a lower number and needs their help. The payoff is that they share the slide and make a new friend.
+Anna and Ben are playing with blocks. They want to make a big tower. They put many blocks on top of each other. They are happy.
+
+"Look, our tower is so high!" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "Let's put one more block on it. Then it will be complete."
+
+Ben reaches for the last block. But he is too fast. He trips over a toy car. He falls down. He hits his knee on the floor. He cries.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! My knee hurts!" Ben says.
+
+Anna runs to him. She sees his knee. It has a red spot. She feels sorry for him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. Are you okay?" Anna says.
+
+Ben nods. He wipes his tears. He looks at his knee. He sees something shiny. He picks it up. It is a sticker. It has a picture of a weird animal. It has a long neck, a big head and spots.
+
+"Hey, look at this!" Ben says. "It's a weird sticker. It was on the floor. Maybe it came from the block."
+
+Anna looks at the sticker. She smiles. She thinks it is funny.
+
+"It is a weird sticker. It is a giraffe. It is an animal that lives far away. It eats leaves from tall trees." Anna says.
+
+Ben smiles too. He likes the sticker. He puts it on his shirt.
+
+"Wow, a giraffe. It is cool. Can I keep it?" Ben says.
+
+"Sure, you can. It is yours. It is a gift for your knee." Anna says.
+
+They hug. They are friends. They forget about the tower. They play with the sticker and the toy car. They are happy.
+Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big swing. It is like a rope with a seat. They want to try it.
+
+"Can we swing, please?" Sam asks his mom.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. Don't swing too high or too fast," his mom says.
+
+Sam and Mia take turns on the swing. They push each other and laugh. They feel like they are flying.
+
+"Look, I can see the island from here!" Mia says. She points to a green spot in the water.
+
+"Wow, me too! Do you think there are animals on the island?" Sam says.
+
+"Maybe. Maybe there are hairy monkeys. They like to hang from trees," Mia says.
+
+"I want to see the hairy monkeys. Can we go to the island?" Sam says.
+
+"Maybe another day. We need a boat to go there. And we need to ask our moms," Mia says.
+
+"Okay. But let's pretend we are on the island now. We can swing and hang like the hairy monkeys," Sam says.
+
+"Okay. That sounds fun. Let's make monkey noises too," Mia says.
+
+They swing and hang and make monkey noises. They have a lot of fun. They pretend they are on the island with the hairy monkeys.
+Lily loves to count. She counts her fingers, her toes, her toys, and her books. She counts everything she sees. One day, she goes to the park with her mom and sees a big box. Inside the box, there are many puppies. They are small and soft and cute. Lily wants to count them.
+
+She asks her mom if she can go near the box. Her mom says yes, but she has to be kind and gentle with the puppies. Lily nods and walks to the box. She says hello to the puppies and they wag their tails. She starts to count them. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. There are eight puppies in the box.
+
+Lily is happy. She likes the puppies. She pets them and talks to them. She gives them names. She says, this is Spot, this is Fluffy, this is Brownie, this is Snowy, this is Lucky, this is Daisy, this is Max, and this is Coco. The puppies lick her face and make her laugh.
+
+A lady comes to the box. She says she is the owner of the puppies. She says she is looking for good homes for them. She asks Lily if she wants to adopt one. Lily looks at her mom. Her mom smiles and says yes. Lily is very happy. She picks Coco, the smallest and cutest puppy. She hugs Coco and says thank you to the lady. She says, I will be a kind and good friend to Coco. I will count him every day. The lady smiles and says, I am sure you will. She gives Lily a leash and a collar for Coco. Lily and her mom and Coco go home. They are a happy family.
+Tom and Lily were playing outside with their bikes. They liked to race each other and make funny noises. But then the sky became dark and loud. It started to rain very hard. Tom and Lily got wet and cold.
+
+"Let's go home!" Lily said. "Mom will be angry if we get sick."
+
+"OK, OK," Tom said. "But I want to go fast. I have the best bike."
+
+Tom pedaled harder and harder. He did not see the big rock on the road. He hit the rock and fell off his bike. He hurt his knee and his arm. He cried out loud.
+
+Lily stopped and ran to him. She saw blood on his knee and his arm. She saw his bike was broken. The wheel was bent and the chain was off.
+
+"Oh no, Tom, are you OK?" Lily asked. "Your bike is broken. And you are bleeding."
+
+"It hurts, it hurts," Tom said. "I want Mom. I want a doctor."
+
+Lily hugged him and tried to calm him down. She saw a car coming. It was their dad. He had a big umbrella. He got out of the car and ran to them.
+
+"What happened?" Dad asked. "Why are you crying? Why are you wet?"
+
+"Tom fell off his bike," Lily said. "He has a broken bike and a broken knee and a broken arm. He needs a doctor."
+
+Dad looked at Tom and saw his wounds. He felt sorry for him. He lifted him up and put him in the car. He took the broken bike too.
+
+"Don't worry, Tom," Dad said. "We will go to the doctor. He will make you feel better. He will fix your knee and your arm. And we will fix your bike too. You will be OK."
+
+Tom nodded and sniffed. He held Lily's hand. He was glad Dad was there. He hoped the doctor was nice. He hoped the rain would stop.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the yard. They saw a big black bird on the fence. It was a raven. The raven had shiny eyes and a sharp beak.
+
+"Look, a raven!" Lily said. "Let's say hello to it."
+
+"OK," Ben said. They walked closer to the fence. The raven looked at them and made a loud noise. "Caw, caw, caw!"
+
+"Hello, raven," Lily said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The raven did not want to play. It was angry. It did not like the children. It wanted them to go away. It flapped its wings and pecked at the fence. "Caw, caw, caw!"
+
+"Ouch, that hurts!" Ben said. He picked up a small rock and threw it at the raven. The rock hit the raven's wing. The raven cried out. "Caw, caw, caw!"
+
+"That's not nice, Ben!" Lily said. "You should not throw rocks at birds. They can get hurt."
+
+"But the raven was mean to us," Ben said. "It did not want to be our friend."
+
+"Maybe the raven was scared of us," Lily said. "Maybe it has no friends. Maybe we can be nice to it and make it happy."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the raven. The raven looked at them. It was still angry, but also curious. It stopped pecking and flapping. It tilted its head and made a soft noise. "Caw, caw, caw?"
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They put down the rocks and reached out their hands. They said, "We are sorry, raven. We want to be your friends. Will you be our friend?"
+
+The raven thought for a moment. It hopped closer to the children. It touched their hands with its beak. It made a happy noise. "Caw, caw, caw!"
+
+Lily and Ben laughed. They petted the raven's feathers and gave it some seeds. The raven ate the seeds and nuzzled their fingers. It made a grateful noise. "Caw, caw, caw!"
+
+Lily and Ben and the raven became friends. They played in the yard until the sun went down. They said goodbye and promised to come back tomorrow. The raven flew away and waved its wing. It made a joyful noise. "Caw, caw, caw!"
+Lily loved soup. She liked to help her mom make soup with carrots and potatoes and chicken. She liked to smell the soup as it cooked in the big pot. She liked to taste the soup with a spoon and say "yum".
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, we have to hurry. We have to take some soup to Grandma. She is sick and needs some soup to feel better. Can you help me put the soup in a bowl and a bag?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Mom. I want to help Grandma. I want to give her some soup." She helped her mom put the soup in a bowl and a bag. She put on her coat and hat and mittens. She grabbed her teddy bear and said, "Let's go, Mom."
+
+They went outside and got in the car. Lily held the bag with the soup on her lap. She looked out the window and saw the snow falling. She said, "Mom, it's snowing. It's so pretty."
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, it is, Lily. But we have to be careful. The snow can make the road slippery and dangerous. We have to drive slowly and watch out for other cars."
+
+They drove for a while, but then they saw a big truck in front of them. The truck was going very fast and making a lot of noise. The truck hit a patch of ice and skidded. The truck crashed into a tree and spilled a lot of boxes on the road.
+
+Lily's mom said, "Oh no, Lily. There's been an accident. We have to stop and wait for the police and the ambulance. We can't go to Grandma's house right now."
+
+Lily felt sad and scared. She said, "But Mom, what about Grandma? She needs some soup. She needs us."
+
+Her mom said, "I know, Lily. I'm sorry. But we can't do anything right now. We have to stay here and be safe. Maybe we can call Grandma and tell her we love her and we'll see her soon."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, Mom. I love Grandma. I hope she feels better." She hugged her teddy bear and the bag with the soup. She hoped the soup would stay warm and lovely. She hoped they could go to Grandma's house soon. She hoped the truck driver was OK. She hoped the snow would stop. She hoped everything would be OK.
+Lily liked to play with her dog, Spot. Spot was big and brown and had a white spot on his nose. Lily liked to hug him and brush his fur. She also liked to dress him up with her old clothes and ribbons.
+
+One day, Lily found a new collar for Spot. It was red and shiny and had a bell on it. Lily thought it would look pretty on Spot. She ran to the backyard, where Spot was sleeping under a tree.
+
+"Spot, Spot, wake up!" Lily said. "I have a surprise for you!"
+
+Spot opened his eyes and wagged his tail. He liked Lily and her surprises. He followed her to the porch, where she showed him the collar.
+
+"Look, Spot, this is for you!" Lily said. "It will make you look nice and sound funny. Let me tie it on you."
+
+Lily tried to tie the collar around Spot's neck, but it was too small. She pulled and pulled, but it would not fit. Spot felt the collar squeeze his neck. He did not like it. He tried to shake it off, but it was too tight. He started to whimper and gasp.
+
+"Spot, what's wrong?" Lily asked. "Don't you like your collar?"
+
+Lily saw Spot's eyes get big and his tongue hang out. She realized he could not breathe. She got scared and ran to the house.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, help!" Lily cried. "Spot can't breathe!"
+
+Mommy heard Lily and came out. She saw Spot choking on the collar. She quickly untied it and threw it away. She hugged Spot and checked his pulse. He was still alive, but very weak.
+
+"Spot, Spot, can you hear me?" Mommy said. "It's okay, boy, you're safe now."
+
+Spot opened his eyes and licked Mommy's face. He was glad she saved him. He looked at Lily and wagged his tail. He forgave her. He knew she did not mean to hurt him.
+
+Lily ran to Spot and hugged him. She was sorry she made him sick. She cried and said sorry over and over.
+
+"Spot, I'm so sorry, I love you, I love you!" Lily said.
+
+Mommy hugged Lily and Spot. She was relieved they were both okay. She told Lily not to play with collars or anything that could hurt Spot. She told her to be careful and gentle with him. She told her to love him and take care of him.
+
+Lily nodded and promised. She learned her lesson. She never played with collars again. She only played with toys and treats and hugs. She and Spot were happy and safe. They were best friends.
+Lila and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park. They like to swing on the swings. They like to slide on the slide. They like to run on the grass.
+
+One day, they see a big tree in the park. The tree has many purple fruits. They look yummy. Lila and Ben want to try them.
+
+"Can we pick some fruits?" Lila asks Ben.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The tree is very tall." Ben says.
+
+They climb on the tree. They reach for the fruits. They are prunes. They are sweet and juicy. Lila and Ben eat some prunes. They are happy.
+
+"Wow, these prunes are incredible!" Lila says.
+
+"I agree, they are the best fruits ever!" Ben says.
+
+They pick some more prunes. They put them in a bag. They want to share them with their moms and dads.
+
+They climb down the tree. They run to the swings. They swing high and low. They laugh and sing.
+
+They have a lot of fun. They love the park. They love the prunes. They love each other. They are best friends.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. They dig in the dirt and find potatoes. They are happy.
+
+But then, Anna wants all the potatoes. She says, "These are mine. You can't have any. I am the boss of the potatoes."
+
+Ben is sad and angry. He says, "That's not fair. We found them together. You are bossy and mean. You are not my friend."
+
+Anna says, "Fine. I don't need you. I have the potatoes. They are my friends."
+
+She takes the potatoes and runs away. Ben cries.
+
+But then, he sees a big dog. The dog is hungry and smells the potatoes. The dog chases Anna and barks. Anna is scared and drops the potatoes. The dog eats them.
+
+Anna runs back to Ben. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. I was wrong. You are my friend. Can we play together again?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, Anna. I forgive you. But you have to promise to share and be nice. And no more being bossy."
+
+Anna says, "I promise, Ben. I promise."
+
+They hug and play in the garden. They are happy.
+Sara was sick. She had a hot head and a sore throat. Mommy gave her a thermometer to see how hot she was. Sara did not like the thermometer. It was cold and hard in her mouth. She wanted to spit it out.
+
+Mommy said, "No, Sara, you have to keep the thermometer in your mouth for a little while. It will tell me if you need medicine or not." Sara did not want medicine. She wanted to play with her toys. She was angry. She made a face at Mommy.
+
+Mommy looked at the clock. She said, "Okay, Sara, time to return the thermometer. Let me see how hot you are." She took the thermometer out of Sara's mouth and looked at it. She said, "Oh, Sara, you are very hot. You have a fever. You need to rest and drink some water. I will give you some medicine to make you feel better."
+
+Sara did not like that. She cried and kicked. She said, "No, Mommy, no medicine, no rest, no water. I want to play, I want to play!" Mommy said, "Sara, stop that. You have to listen to me. You are sick and you need to get well. The medicine will help you. The rest will help you. The water will help you. Playing will not help you."
+
+Mommy hugged Sara and kissed her forehead. She said, "I know you are angry, Sara, but I love you. I want you to be happy and healthy. Trust me, Sara, the thermometer is your friend. It tells me what you need. And I will always give you what you need. Now, let's go to your room and read a story. Maybe that will make you feel better." Sara sniffled and nodded. She said, "Okay, Mommy, I love you too. But I still don't like the thermometer." Mommy smiled and said, "Maybe next time you will like it more."
+Tom and Lily were at the park with their mom. They wanted to go on the slide, but there was a long line of other kids waiting. Tom and Lily were good and waited for their turn.
+
+But then a naughty boy came and pushed his way to the front of the line. He did not say sorry or please. He just went on the slide and laughed.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Tom said. "You have to wait like everyone else!"
+
+The naughty boy stuck out his tongue and said, "No, I don't. I'm the best and I can do what I want!"
+
+Lily was angry too. She said, "You're not the best, you're the worst! You're mean and rude and you don't share!"
+
+The naughty boy did not care. He went on the slide again and again, and did not let anyone else have a turn.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at their mom. She saw what was happening and she was not happy. She walked over to the naughty boy and said, "Excuse me, young man. You need to stop being selfish and let the other kids play. It's not nice to cut in line and hog the slide. How would you feel if someone did that to you?"
+
+The naughty boy looked at Tom and Lily's mom. He saw that she was serious and he felt scared. He said, "I'm sorry, ma'am. I was just having fun. I didn't mean to be naughty."
+
+Tom and Lily's mom said, "Well, fun is good, but not when it hurts other people's feelings. You need to learn to be polite and respectful and take turns. Do you understand?"
+
+The naughty boy nodded and said, "Yes, ma'am. I understand. Can I please go on the slide one more time?"
+
+Tom and Lily's mom said, "Only if you ask the other kids nicely and wait for your turn."
+
+The naughty boy said, "Okay, I will. Thank you, ma'am."
+
+He went to the back of the line and said, "Hi, I'm Jake. Can I please go on the slide after you?"
+
+The other kids were surprised, but they said, "Sure, you can. That's very nice of you to ask."
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They were glad that the naughty boy had changed his mind and learned to be nice. They hoped that he would make some new friends and have more fun. They finally got to go on the slide and they had a blast.
+Lily and Tom were bored. They wanted to play, but it was raining outside. They looked around the house for something fun to do.
+
+"Let's climb the stairs!" Tom said. He liked to climb. He ran to the stairs and started to go up.
+
+"Wait for me!" Lily said. She followed him. She liked to climb too. They climbed and climbed until they reached the top.
+
+They saw a door. It was their mom's room. They knew they were not allowed to go in, but they were curious.
+
+"Let's peek inside!" Lily said. She opened the door a little bit.
+
+"Wow!" Tom said. He saw a big jar on the table. It was full of sugar. He loved sugar. He ran to the table and grabbed the jar.
+
+"Tom, no!" Lily said. She knew it was bad to take mom's sugar. She tried to stop him, but it was too late.
+
+Tom opened the jar and poured some sugar into his mouth. It was sweet and crunchy. He smiled and poured some more.
+
+"Stop it, Tom!" Lily said. She was scared. What if mom found out? What if Tom got sick?
+
+But Tom did not listen. He poured and poured until the jar was empty. He licked his lips and grinned.
+
+"Yummy!" he said.
+
+Then they heard a sound. It was mom. She was coming up the stairs.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. She hid under the bed.
+
+"Uh oh!" Tom said. He dropped the jar and ran to the closet.
+
+Mom opened the door. She saw the empty jar on the floor. She saw the sugar on the table and on Tom's face. She was angry.
+
+"Who did this?" she asked.
+
+Lily and Tom did not answer. They were quiet. They hoped mom would not find them.
+
+But mom did. She looked under the bed and in the closet. She saw Lily and Tom. They looked sad and sorry.
+
+"Come here, you two!" she said.
+
+Lily and Tom came out. They hung their heads. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+"Did you take my sugar?" mom asked.
+
+"Yes, mom," Lily and Tom said.
+
+"Why did you do that?" mom asked.
+
+"We were bored," Lily said.
+
+"We wanted to play," Tom said.
+
+"We were curious," they both said.
+
+Mom sighed. She was not happy. She loved her sugar. She needed it for her cake.
+
+"That was not nice," she said. "You should not take things that are not yours. You should not go into my room without asking. You should not eat so much sugar. It is bad for your teeth and your tummy."
+
+Lily and Tom felt bad. They knew mom was right.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," they said.
+
+"Will you do it again?" mom asked.
+
+"No, mom," they said.
+
+"Good," mom said. "Now go brush your teeth and wash your face. Then go to your room and think about what you did. No more playing for today."
+
+Lily and Tom did what mom said. They brushed their teeth and washed their face. They went to their room and thought about what they did. They were not bored anymore. They were sorry. They wished they had not taken mom's sugar. They wished they had not climbed the stairs. They wished they had listened to mom.
+Lily liked to play with her mom's makeup. She liked to put red on her lips, blue on her eyes, and pink on her cheeks. She thought she looked pretty and funny. She did not like to stay in her room when her mom was away. She liked to go to her mom's room and open her big box of makeup.
+
+One day, Lily was playing with her mom's makeup when she heard a loud noise. She ran to the window and saw a big truck. The truck was coming to her house. She was scared. She did not know who was driving the truck. She wanted her mom to come back. She hid under the bed with her mom's makeup.
+
+The truck stopped in front of her house. A man got out of the truck. He had a big bag. He kicked the door open. He was a bad man. He wanted to take things from Lily's house. He went to the living room and took the TV. He went to the kitchen and took the food. He went to Lily's room and took her toys. He went to her mom's room and saw the big box of makeup. He opened it and saw Lily under the bed.
+
+Lily was very scared. She tried to scream, but the man grabbed her. He put her in his big bag with the makeup. He threw the bag in the truck. He drove away. Lily cried and cried. She wanted her mom. She wanted her home. She wanted her toys. She was stuck in the dark bag with the makeup. She did not look pretty or funny. She looked sad and chubby. She did not like the makeup anymore. She did not like the bad man. She did not like the truck. She did not like the story. The story had a bad ending.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with toys. But sometimes they fight over toys. They do not like to share.
+
+One day, they find a big box in the living room. It has a switch on it. They wonder what is inside. They both want to open it. They pull the box from each other. They tear the paper and the tape. They make a big mess.
+
+Inside the box, they see a big robot. It has lights and sounds. It can move and talk. They both want to play with it. They grab the robot from each other. They push and shout. They break the robot. It does not work anymore. They make a big noise.
+
+Mom and Dad hear the noise. They come to the living room. They see the box, the paper, the tape, and the robot. They are angry and sad. They say, "What have you done? This was a gift for both of you. You were supposed to share it. You were supposed to be careful. You were supposed to be kind. You were not fair to each other. You were not fair to the robot. You were not fair to us."
+
+Sara and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom and Dad. We were bad. We did not share. We did not care. We were not fair. We will try to be better. We will try to be good. We will try to be nice. We will try to be fair."
+
+Mom and Dad hug them. They say, "We love you, Sara and Ben. We are glad you are sorry. We hope you will learn from this. We hope you will play together. We hope you will share your toys. We hope you will be fair to each other. We hope you will be fair to your toys. We hope you will be fair to us."
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They say, "We love you, Mom and Dad. We will learn from this. We will play together. We will share our toys. We will be fair to each other. We will be fair to our toys. We will be fair to you."
+
+They help Mom and Dad clean up the mess. They say sorry to the robot. They hope it can be fixed. They promise to be fair.
+Sara and Tom are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. But Sara sees a big dog near the fence. She is afraid of dogs. She feels anxious.
+
+"Tom, look at the dog!" Sara says. "It is big and loud. I don't like it."
+
+Tom looks at the dog. He is not afraid of dogs. He likes them. He thinks the dog is friendly.
+
+"Don't worry, Sara," Tom says. "The dog is nice. It just wants to play. See, it is lying on the grass. It is not angry."
+
+Sara does not believe Tom. She thinks the dog is scary. She wants to go home.
+
+"No, Tom, the dog is not nice. It is bad. It can bite us. Let's go home. Now!" Sara says.
+
+Tom does not want to go home. He wants to play more. He thinks Sara is silly.
+
+"Sara, you are silly," Tom says. "The dog is not bad. It is good. It will not bite us. It will lick us. Come on, let's go and pet it."
+
+Tom runs to the dog. Sara follows him. She is very anxious. She hopes the dog will not hurt them.
+
+The dog sees Tom and Sara. It wags its tail. It is happy. It likes children. It wants to play with them.
+
+Tom reaches the dog. He pets its head. The dog licks his hand. Tom laughs.
+
+"See, Sara, the dog is nice. It likes me. It likes you too. Come and pet it," Tom says.
+
+Sara is still anxious. She stays behind Tom. She does not want to pet the dog. She wants to leave.
+
+"Tom, please, let's go. I don't like the dog. I don't want to pet it. I want to go home," Sara says.
+
+Tom is sad. He likes the dog. He wants to play with it. He does not want to leave.
+
+"Sara, please, don't be afraid. The dog is fun. It will not hurt you. It will make you happy. Please, stay and play," Tom says.
+
+Sara and Tom argue. They do not agree. They do not listen to each other. They are not happy.
+
+The dog hears them. It does not like to hear them argue. It wants them to be happy. It wants them to play. It has an idea.
+
+The dog gets up. It runs to Sara. It jumps on her. It licks her face. Sara screams.
+
+"Tom, help me! The dog is on me! It is licking me! It is wet and hairy! Get it off me!" Sara says.
+
+Tom runs to Sara. He pulls the dog off her. He hugs her. He is sorry.
+
+"Sara, I'm sorry. I did not mean to scare you. I just wanted to play with the dog. Are you okay?" Tom says.
+
+Sara is not okay. She is angry. She is wet. She is hairy. She does not like the dog. She does not like Tom.
+
+"Tom, I'm not okay. I'm angry. I'm wet. I'm hairy. I don't like the dog. I don't like you. You did not listen to me. You did not care about me. You are a bad friend," Sara says.
+
+Tom is not okay. He is sad. He is sorry. He likes the dog. He likes Sara. He did not want to hurt her. He is a good friend.

+
+"Tom, do you want to play with the dog?" Sara says.
+
+"Sara, do you want to play with the dog?" Tom says.
+

+
+The dog is happy. Sara and Tom are happy. They are friends. They are in order.
+Tim and Mia are playing with their furry toys. They have a big bear, a small cat, and a funny monkey. They like to make them talk and do things.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race with their toys. They put them on the floor and say, "Ready, set, go!" They push their toys and make them crawl to the other side of the room. The bear is slow, the cat is fast, and the monkey is silly.
+
+Tim and Mia cheer for their toys and laugh. They see who can get to the end first. They count the score. One point for the cat, zero for the bear, and zero for the monkey. The cat wins the race!
+
+But then, the monkey does something funny. He jumps on the cat and tickles her. The cat drops the point and runs away. The monkey picks up the point and says, "I win, I win!"
+
+Tim and Mia laugh even more. They say, "No, monkey, you are cheating!" They take the point from the monkey and give it back to the cat. They say, "The cat is the winner, the monkey is the loser!"
+
+The monkey makes a sad face. He says, "Sorry, cat, sorry, friends. I was just playing. Can we play again?"
+
+The cat says, "It's okay, monkey, I forgive you. You are funny, but you have to follow the rules."
+
+The bear says, "Yes, monkey, we can play again. But this time, let's play something else. How about hide and seek?"
+
+Tim and Mia say, "Yes, let's play hide and seek! That sounds fun!"

+They pick up their furry toys and go to find a good hiding spot. They have a lot of fun playing together.
+Lily was a little girl who loved animals. She had a dog named Max, who had soft fur and a big tail. Max liked to play with Lily and provide her with kisses and cuddles.
+
+One day, Lily and Max went to the park with Lily's mom. They saw many other animals there, like birds, squirrels, and rabbits. Lily wanted to pet them all, but Max barked at them and scared them away.
+
+"Max, why are you so bad?" Lily asked. "Don't you like the other animals?"
+
+Max wagged his tail and licked Lily's face. He tried to tell her that he was not bad, he was just protecting her. He thought the other animals might hurt Lily or take her away from him. He loved Lily very much and wanted to be with her always.
+
+Lily hugged Max and said, "I love you too, Max. But you don't have to be afraid of the other animals. They are not mean, they are just different. They have different fur, different sounds, and different ways of living. But they are all part of the park, and we can share it with them. Can you try to be nice to them, Max?"
+
+Max nodded and wagged his tail again. He wanted to make Lily happy, and he was curious about the other animals. He decided to give them a chance and see if they could be friends. He followed Lily as she walked around the park, and he sniffed and wagged at the animals he met. He found out that they were not so bad after all, and some of them even played with him. Lily was proud of Max and gave him a big hug.
+
+"See, Max, you can be a good boy and have fun with the other animals. I'm glad you learned something new today. You are a smart and brave dog, and I love you very much," Lily said.
+
+Max barked happily and licked Lily's face. He was glad he listened to Lily and tried something new. He learned that the park was a wonderful place to explore and make friends. He still loved Lily the most, but he also liked the other animals. He was a happy and good dog, and he had soft fur and a big tail.
+Lily and Ben are playing hide and seek in the park. Lily is the seeker and Ben is the hider. Ben runs to find a good spot to hide. He sees a big tree with many leaves. He thinks it is a good spot to hide. He goes behind the tree and stays very quiet.
+
+Lily counts to ten and then says, "Ready or not, here I come!" She looks around the park and tries to find Ben. She sees a swing, a slide, a bench, and a fountain, but no Ben. She wonders where he is. She walks around the park and looks for clues.
+
+She sees a blue shirt on the ground near the big tree. She thinks it is Ben's shirt. She picks it up and says, "Aha! I found your shirt, Ben! Where are you?" She goes to the big tree and looks behind it. She sees Ben hiding there. He smiles and says, "You found me, Lily! Good job!"
+
+Lily and Ben hug and laugh. They are happy. They decide to switch roles and play again. Lily gives Ben his shirt and says, "Now you are the seeker and I am the hider. I will find a better spot than you!" Ben says, "OK, let's play! I will count to ten and then I will find you!" They run to different directions and start a new round of hide and seek. They have fun playing in the park.
+Tim and Lily were bored. They wanted to play, but it was too hot outside. They looked for something fun to do inside the house. They saw the big white box in the kitchen. It was the freezer. They opened the door and saw many cold things inside.
+
+"Wow, look at all the ice!" Tim said. He took out a tray of ice cubes and put them on the floor. He and Lily started to slide them around with their feet.
+
+"Let's make a snowman!" Lily said. She took some ice cubes and stacked them on top of each other. She found a carrot and two raisins in the freezer and used them for the nose and eyes.
+
+Tim wanted to make a snowman too. He wandered around the freezer, looking for more ice cubes. He saw a bag of green beans. He thought they looked like arms. He took them out and tried to stick them to his ice cubes.
+
+But the green beans were not frozen. They were soft and slimy. They smelled bad. Tim dropped them and made a face.
+
+"Ew, these are disgusting!" he said. He threw the bag back into the freezer.
+
+Lily heard him and came over. She saw the green beans and wrinkled her nose.
+
+"Yuck, what are those?" she asked.
+
+"I don't know, but they are not good for snowmen," Tim said.
+
+They decided to leave the freezer and find something else to play with. They cleaned up the ice cubes and the carrot and the raisins. They closed the freezer door and ran to the living room.
+
+"Maybe we can watch a movie," Lily said.
+
+"Or play with the blocks," Tim said.
+
+They smiled at each other. They were not bored anymore.
+Tom and Anna liked to play with the radio. They liked to hear the songs and the stories. But the radio was old and broken. Sometimes it made loud noises and sparks. Mom and Dad told them to be careful and not touch the radio.
+
+One day, Tom and Anna were bored. They wanted to play with the radio. They saw it on the shelf in the living room. Tom said, "Let's go and see if the radio works. Maybe we can hear something fun." Anna said, "But Mom and Dad said no. They said it is dangerous." Tom said, "Don't be scared. I will be careful. Come on, I will help you."
+
+Tom and Anna climbed on the couch and reached for the radio. They pulled it down and put it on the floor. They turned the knob and heard a crackle. They smiled and tried to find a station. They heard a voice and a song. They clapped and danced. Tom said, "See, it is not so bad. We can play with the radio." He encouraged Anna to turn the knob some more.
+
+But then, something went wrong. The radio made a loud bang and a flash. Smoke came out of it. Tom and Anna screamed and dropped the radio. They ran away from it. They were scared and hurt. The radio had burned their hands and faces. They cried and called for Mom and Dad.
+
+Mom and Dad heard the noise and the cries. They ran to the living room and saw the radio and the smoke. They saw Tom and Anna on the floor, bleeding and crying. They were shocked and angry. They picked up Tom and Anna and took them to the car. They drove to the hospital. They hoped Tom and Anna would be okay. They wished they had listened and been careful. They learned a hard lesson. Playing with the radio was not fun. It was dangerous.
+Lily and Ben were playing hide and seek in the old house. Lily counted to ten and then looked for Ben. She opened a door and saw a dark room. She walked inside and saw a big bed with a blanket. She thought Ben might be hiding under the blanket, so she lifted it up.
+
+"Boo!" Ben shouted and jumped out. He made Lily scream and laugh. He hugged her and said, "I got you!"
+
+They looked around the room and saw many things. They saw a lamp, a chair, a mirror, and a dresser. They also saw many cobwebs on the walls and the ceiling. Cobwebs were like thin strings that spiders made. They were dusty and sticky.
+
+"Look at the cobwebs!" Lily said. "They are so many and so big!"
+
+"Let's touch them!" Ben said. He reached out his hand and touched a cobweb. It felt soft and tickly. He pulled it and it stretched. He wrapped it around his finger and said, "Look, I have a ring!"
+
+Lily wanted to try too. She touched a cobweb and pulled it. But she pulled too hard and the cobweb broke. It fell on her face and covered her mouth and nose. She tried to get it off, but it stuck to her skin and hair. She felt scared and angry. She opened her mouth and tried to spit it out. But she tasted the cobweb. It tasted bad. It tasted like dirt and bugs. She made a face and said, "Yuck! The cobweb tastes yucky!"
+
+Ben saw Lily and laughed. He thought she looked funny with the cobweb on her face. He said, "You look like a mummy!"
+
+Lily did not like that. She felt dizzy and sick. She ran to the door and said, "I don't like this room! I don't like the cobwebs! I want to go out!"
+
+Ben followed her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was just joking. Don't be mad at me."
+
+They left the room and closed the door. They decided to play somewhere else. They did not want to taste the cobwebs again.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big ice cream truck. They run to the truck and ask for ice cream.
+
+"Can we have ice cream, please?" Sara says.
+
+"Me too, me too!" Tom says.
+
+The ice cream man smiles. He gives them two cones with cream on top. Sara picks chocolate cream. Tom picks strawberry cream. They say thank you and lick their cream.
+
+But then, a bee comes. The bee likes the cream too. It buzzes around Tom's cone. Tom is scared. He drops his cone on the ground. The cream is gone. Tom cries.
+
+"Tom, don't cry!" Sara says. "You can have some of my cream. I will share with you."
+
+She breaks her cone in half. She gives one half to Tom. Tom stops crying. He smiles. He takes the half cone and licks the cream.
+

+Tommy loved to watch his dad stir the soup in the big pot. He liked the sound of the spoon and the smell of the carrots and chicken. He wanted to help his dad, but the pot was too hot and the spoon was too big.
+
+"Dad, can I stir the soup?" Tommy asked.
+
+"Not now, Tommy. The soup is very hot and you might burn yourself. Why don't you play with your toys in the living room?" Dad said.
+
+Tommy nodded and went to the living room. He saw his favorite toy on the floor. It was a red motorcycle with shiny wheels and a loud horn. He picked it up and made vroom-vroom noises as he zoomed it around the couch and the table. He pretended he was a racer and he was going very fast.
+
+He was so excited that he did not hear his dad calling him for dinner. He only heard the horn of the motorcycle.
+
+"Tommy, Tommy, come and eat your soup. It's ready and it's yummy." Dad said.
+
+Tommy heard his dad and stopped playing. He put the motorcycle on the shelf and ran to the kitchen. He saw his dad smiling and holding a bowl of soup for him.
+
+"Here you go, Tommy. Be careful, it's still hot. Blow on it before you sip it." Dad said.
+
+Tommy took the bowl and blew on the soup. He saw the steam and smelled the carrots and chicken. He sipped the soup and smiled. It was yummy.
+
+"Thank you, Dad. This is the best soup ever." Tommy said.
+
+"You're welcome, Tommy. I'm glad you like it. And I'm proud of you for playing nicely with your motorcycle." Dad said.

+When they got to the pool, Anna saw that it was empty. There was no one else there. She wondered why. Her mom and dad smiled and said they had rented the pool for the whole hour. They said it was their surprise for her. They said she could swim as much as she wanted.
+
+Anna did not think it was a good surprise. She thought it was a bad surprise. She did not want to swim in the cold water. She wanted to go back to the car. But her mom and dad said they had another surprise for her. They said they had brought something special for her.

+They opened the trunk and took out a big, fluffy towel. It was pink and purple and had a picture of a mighty lion on it. It was Anna's favorite towel. She had left it at home by mistake. Her mom and dad had found it and brought it for her.

+
+"Who is there?" Anna asks.
+
+"Who is there?" the sound repeats.

+Anna and Ben are scared. They think it is a spirit. They hold hands and run out of the cave.
+
+"Did you hear that?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, it was a spirit," Anna says.

+
+"What are you doing?" she asked. She was surprised and upset. "You are not chefs, you are naughty children! You destroy the food and the kitchen! You have to clean up and say sorry to each other!"
+
+Tom and Lily stopped fighting. They looked at their mom and then at each other. They felt ashamed and sorry. They said sorry to their mom and to each other. They helped to clean up the kitchen.

+
+"Shh, don't be loud. Mom might hear us," Ben said.
+
+They hid the knife and the melon rind under the table. They hoped Mom would not notice.
+
+But Mom did notice. She came out and saw the melon on the table. She saw the cut and the rind. She was not happy.
+
+"Who did this?" she asked.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They felt scared. But they remembered their plan. They decided to be honest.
+
+"We did, Mom. We are sorry. We were hungry and we wanted to try the melon. We will share our toys with you as a sorry," they said.
+
+Mom smiled. She was not angry anymore. She was proud of them.
+
+"That was very honest of you, Lily and Ben. I forgive you. But next time, please ask me before you take something. The melon was for our picnic. Now we have less to share with our friends," she said.
+
+She hugged them and gave them a kiss. She took the knife and the rind and threw them away. She cut another piece of the melon and gave it to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Here, you can have some more. But save some for the picnic, OK?" she said.
+
+"OK, Mom. Thank you. We love you," they said.
+
+They ate the melon happily. They learned a lesson. They learned to be honest and to ask before they take. They also learned that melon is delicious.
+Anna and Ben love to go to the library with their mom. They like to look at books with pictures and stories. Sometimes they also listen to music or watch videos on the library computers.
+
+One day, they see a big machine in the library. It has a microphone and a button. A sign says: "Record your voice and make a story". Anna and Ben are curious. They ask their mom what it is.
+
+"It's a fun way to tell your own story and hear it later. You can use the microphone to talk and the button to start and stop. Do you want to try?" mom says.
+
+"Yes, yes!" Anna and Ben say. They go to the machine and put on headphones. Mom helps them to press the button.
+
+"Hello, I am Anna and this is my brother Ben. We are at the library. It is very cold outside. It is icy and snowy. We like to play in the snow and make snowmen. But we also like to come to the library and read books. What do you like to do?" Anna says.
+
+"Hi, I am Ben and I like to play with cars and trains. I have a red car and a blue train. They are fast and loud. I also like to watch videos of animals. I like dogs and cats and lions and tigers. They are cute and scary. What are your favorite animals?" Ben says.
+
+They stop talking and press the button again. Then they listen to their voices. They sound funny and clear. They laugh and clap.
+
+"Good job, Anna and Ben. You made a great story. Do you want to save it and take it home?" mom says.
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna and Ben say. Mom helps them to save their story on a small disk. They put it in their backpack.
+
+"Thank you, library. Thank you, machine. We had fun. Bye!" Anna and Ben say. They wave and smile. They are happy. They can't wait to listen to their story again at home.
+Lisa liked to do yoga with her mom. Yoga was when they made funny shapes with their bodies on a soft mat. Sometimes they were like trees, sometimes like cats, sometimes like stars. Lisa felt happy and strong when she did yoga.
+
+One day, it was very hot outside. Lisa and her mom put on their yoga clothes and went to the backyard. They spread their mat under a big tree. They started to do yoga, but Lisa felt very sweaty. She looked at her mom and saw that she was also sweaty. They both felt like they were melting.
+
+"Mom, can we stop?" Lisa asked. "I'm too hot. I want some water."
+
+"Me too, sweetie," her mom said. "Let's go inside and get some water. We can do yoga later when it's cooler."
+
+They rolled up their mat and walked to the door. But the door was locked. Lisa's mom had forgotten to take the key. They tried to open the window, but it was also locked. They felt helpless. They could not get inside.
+
+"Mom, what are we going to do?" Lisa asked. She felt scared and thirsty.
+
+"Don't worry, honey," her mom said. "We'll find a way. Maybe we can call dad or the neighbor. Or maybe someone will come by and see us. We'll be okay."
+
+They sat down on the mat and hugged each other. They hoped that someone would help them soon. They wished they had some ice cream to make them feel better. They wondered if ice cream would melt in the sun. They decided that they did not like melting. They liked yoga better.
+Sam and Mia were friends who lived near the sea. They liked to play on the sand and look for shells and crabs. One day, they saw a big cloud in the sky. It was dark and angry. Sam said, "That is a hurricane. It can blow away houses and trees. We have to go home."
+
+Mia said, "But I want to stay and play. The hurricane is far away. It will not come here." She picked up a chubby crab and put it in her bucket. She said, "Look, I found a crab. I will name him Bob. He is my pet."
+
+Sam said, "You are silly. You cannot keep a crab as a pet. He will pinch you and run away. And the hurricane will come soon. We have to go home now." He grabbed Mia's hand and pulled her away from the sea.
+
+Mia said, "No, no, no. I want to stay with Bob. He is my friend. He will not hurt me. And the hurricane will not come here. It is too far." She pulled her hand back and ran to her bucket.
+
+Sam said, "Mia, please. Listen to me. The hurricane is coming. It is getting bigger and louder. We have to go home. It is not safe here." He tried to catch Mia, but she was too fast.
+
+Mia said, "Leave me alone. I want to play with Bob. He is cute and chubby. He likes me. And the hurricane is not scary. It is just a cloud." She reached her bucket and lifted Bob out. She said, "Hello, Bob. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+But Bob did not want to play with Mia. He was angry and scared. He pinched Mia's finger with his claw. Mia screamed and dropped Bob. She said, "Ow, ow, ow. Bob, why did you do that? You are mean. You are not my friend."
+
+Sam said, "I told you so. You cannot keep a crab as a pet. He will pinch you and run away. And the hurricane is here. It is blowing hard. We have to go home. Come on, Mia. Let's go."
+
+Mia said, "Okay, okay. Let's go. I am sorry, Sam. You were right. The hurricane is scary. And Bob is mean. I do not want him anymore." She followed Sam to their homes. They ran as fast as they could. The hurricane was behind them. It was loud and angry. It wanted to catch them. But they were faster. They made it to their homes. They were safe. They hugged their parents and said, "We are sorry. We were playing on the sand. We did not listen to you. We saw a hurricane. It was big and scary. We will not do it again."
+
+Their parents said, "We are glad you are safe. We love you. But you have to listen to us. Hurricanes are dangerous. You cannot play on the sand when there is a hurricane. You have to stay home and be careful. Do you understand?"
+
+Sam and Mia said, "Yes, we understand. We are sorry. We love you too." They learned their lesson. They never played on the sand when there was a hurricane. They only played when the sky was clear and blue. And they never named a crab again.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys, but they also liked to use the furniture as part of their games. Sometimes they pretended to be pirates and used the bed as a ship, or they pretended to be lions and used the sofa as a cave.
+
+One day, they decided to play a new game. They pretended to be superheroes and used the chairs as weapons. They threw the chairs at each other and made loud noises. They had fun, but they did not notice that they were breaking the furniture. The chairs were fragile and had legs that snapped and cushions that tore.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was going on. She was very angry when she saw the mess. She said, "Lily and Ben, what are you doing? You are fighting and ruining the furniture! This is not how you play. You have to be careful and respectful. The furniture is not a toy. It is for sitting and resting. How would you feel if someone broke your toys?"
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry and ashamed. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We did not mean to break the furniture. We were just playing a game. We did not know the chairs were fragile. We will not do it again. Can you please forgive us?"
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "I forgive you, but you have to help me clean up and fix the furniture. And next time, you have to ask me before you use the furniture for your games. And you have to play nicely and not fight. Fighting is not good. It can hurt you and others. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "We understand, mom. We love you. Thank you for forgiving us." They helped their mom clean up and fix the furniture. They learned their lesson and played more gently and kindly. They still had fun, but they did not break anything. They were happy and so was their mom.
+Sara likes to visit her grandma every week. Grandma lives in a small house near the park. Sara loves to play with Grandma's flute. She blows into it and makes funny sounds. Grandma smiles and claps her hands.
+
+One day, Sara sees a big box in Grandma's living room. She asks Grandma what is inside. Grandma says it is a surprise for her birthday. Sara is curious and wants to peek. Grandma says no, she has to wait until her birthday.
+
+Sara waits until Grandma is sleepy and goes to take a nap. Then she sneaks into the living room and opens the box. She is happy to see a new flute, shiny and colorful. She takes it out and tries to play it. But she does not know how to hold it or blow into it. She makes a loud noise and breaks the flute.
+
+Grandma wakes up and hears the noise. She comes into the living room and sees Sara with the broken flute. She is sad and angry. She says Sara was naughty and spoiled her surprise. She says Sara has to go home and cannot play with her flute anymore.
+
+Sara feels sorry and cries. She says she is sorry and she loves Grandma. She says she wanted to play with the new flute. Grandma hugs Sara and says she loves her too. She says she forgives her, but she has to learn to be patient and respectful. She says she will fix the flute and give it to her on her birthday, but only if she promises to be good and listen to Grandma.
+
+Sara promises and says thank you. She says she will wait for her birthday and play with the flute with Grandma. She says she learned her lesson and will not peek again. Grandma smiles and says she is proud of her. They hug and kiss and have some cookies.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not be curious and peek at surprises. Be patient and respectful and you will be rewarded.
+Anna liked to help her mom in the garden. She liked to dig and plant and water the flowers and vegetables. She also liked to watch the rabbits that came to nibble on the lettuce and carrots. Mom said they were hungry and needed food too, but they had to share.
+
+One day, Anna saw a small white rabbit with a brown spot on its ear. It looked very cute and friendly. Anna wanted to pet it and play with it. She ran to the house and asked mom if she could bring a carrot for the rabbit. Mom said yes, but she had to be careful and gentle.
+
+Anna took a big orange carrot from the basket and ran back to the garden. She looked for the white rabbit with the brown spot, but she could not find it. She saw other rabbits, but they were shy and ran away when she came near. Anna felt sad and lonely. She wished she had a friend like the rabbit.
+
+She sat down on the grass and held the carrot in her hand. She hoped the rabbit would come back. She waited and waited, but nothing happened. She started to cry. She did not want to waste the carrot, but she did not want to eat it either.
+
+Suddenly, she heard a soft noise behind her. She turned around and saw the white rabbit with the brown spot. It had come out of a hole under the fence. It looked at Anna with curious eyes. It smelled the carrot and hopped closer. Anna smiled and wiped her tears. She held out the carrot and said, "Hello, little rabbit. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The rabbit sniffed the carrot and nibbled on it. It made a happy sound and rubbed its nose against Anna's hand. Anna felt warm and happy. She stroked the rabbit's fur and said, "You are very soft and sweet. Thank you for coming back. I am very grateful."
+
+The rabbit and Anna shared the carrot and played together. They became good friends. Mom watched them from the window and smiled. She was glad Anna had found a friend in the garden. She was proud of her kind and generous daughter.
+Sara and Tom were playing with their dolls. Sara had a big doll with long hair and a pink dress. Tom had a small doll with short hair and a blue shirt. Sara liked to tie her doll's hair with ribbons and bows. Tom liked to make his doll do spells with a stick.
+
+"Look, my doll can do a spell to make your doll dead!" Tom said. He waved his stick at Sara's doll and said, "Dead, dead, dead!"
+
+Sara was angry. She did not like Tom's spell. She grabbed his stick and threw it away. "No, no, no! My doll is not dead! Your spell is bad!" she said.
+
+Tom was angry too. He ran after his stick and picked it up. He wanted to do another spell to make Sara's doll dead. He waved his stick at Sara's doll again and said, "Dead, dead, dead!"
+
+But this time, something went wrong. The stick was not a stick. It was a snake. The snake bit Tom's hand and made him cry. Tom dropped the stick and the snake and ran to his mom. He was hurt and scared.
+
+Sara saw what happened. She felt sorry for Tom. She wanted to help him. She picked up her doll and ran to Tom's mom too. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I did not mean to make you angry. Your spell was not bad. It was just a game."
+
+But Tom's mom did not hear her. She was busy calling the doctor. She was worried about Tom. She did not know if the snake was poisonous. She did not know if Tom would be okay. She did not know if Tom would live or die.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. They loved to look at the flowers, the birds and the bugs. One day, they saw a big tree with a hole in it. They heard a buzzing sound coming from the hole.
+
+"Look, Ben, there are bees in the tree!" Lily said. "They make honey in their hive. I want to see it!"
+
+"Me too!" Ben said. "But we have to be careful. Bees can sting us if we make them angry."
+
+They walked closer to the tree, but not too close. They admired the bees flying in and out of the hole. They wondered how the hive looked like inside.
+
+"Maybe we can get some honey if we are nice to the bees," Lily said. "Honey is sweet and yummy. We are lucky to find this tree!"
+
+"Maybe," Ben said. "But how can we be nice to the bees? What do they like?"
+
+They thought for a while. Then they remembered that their mom had given them some bread and jam for their snack. They decided to share some with the bees.
+
+They broke off a piece of bread and put some jam on it. They placed it on the ground near the tree. They hoped the bees would like it.
+
+"Here you go, bees," Lily said. "This is for you. Please don't sting us. We are your friends."
+
+They waited to see what the bees would do. They saw some bees flying towards the bread and jam. They looked happy and curious.
+
+"Wow, they like it!" Ben said. "They are eating the jam. Maybe they will give us some honey later."
+
+They smiled and watched the bees enjoy their snack. They felt proud and kind. They did not know that the jam had made the bees very sticky. They did not know that the sticky bees would have trouble flying back to their hive. They did not know that the other bees would be angry and confused. They did not know that they had made a big mistake.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play outside in the sun. They have a big ball and a small bike. They share their toys and have fun.
+
+One day, the sky is gray and the wind is rough. Lily and Tom cannot play outside. They are sad. They look out the window and see the leaves fall. They ask their mom, "What is this?"
+
+Mom says, "This is fall. It is a season. There are four seasons in a year. Fall, winter, spring, and summer. Each season has different weather and colors."
+
+Lily and Tom want to learn more. They ask, "Can we go outside and see the fall?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, but you need to wear warm clothes. It is cold outside. And be careful, the ground is wet and slippery."
+
+Lily and Tom put on their jackets, hats, and boots. They say, "Thank you, mom. We will be back soon."
+
+They go outside and see the fall. They see red, yellow, and brown leaves. They see squirrels and birds. They hear the wind and the rain. They feel the cold and the rough.
+
+They pick up some leaves and make a pile. They jump into the pile and laugh. They throw some leaves in the air and catch them. They have fun.
+
+They see a big pumpkin on a porch. They go to the door and knock. A lady opens the door and smiles. She says, "Hello, children. Do you like my pumpkin?"
+
+Lily and Tom say, "Yes, we do. It is big and orange. Can we have some, please?"
+
+The lady says, "Sure, you can. I have some pumpkin pie and some pumpkin seeds. Come in and have some. It is warm and sweet."
+
+Lily and Tom say, "Thank you, lady. You are very nice."
+
+They go in and have some pumpkin pie and some pumpkin seeds. They like them. They say, "This is yummy. We like fall."
+
+The end.
+Anna and Ben like to play with squash. They have many squash of different colors and shapes. They like to roll them on the floor and see how far they go. Sometimes they roll them to each other and catch them.
+
+One day, they find a big squash in the kitchen. It is orange and round and heavy. They want to play with it, too. They take it to the living room and put it on the floor.
+
+"Let's roll it to the window!" Anna says.
+
+"OK!" Ben says.
+
+They push the squash with their hands. It rolls slowly on the carpet. They push harder and harder. The squash rolls faster and faster.
+
+"Look, it's going to the window!" Anna says.
+
+"Wow, it's so funny!" Ben says.
+
+But the squash is too big and too fast. It does not stop at the window. It breaks the glass and goes outside. Anna and Ben hear a loud crash and see the squash fall on the street.
+
+"Oh no!" Anna says.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the window and look outside. They see the squash smashed on the road. They see cars and people and dogs. They see blood and glass and seeds. They see a policeman and a fireman and an ambulance. They see their mom and dad. They are very angry and very scared.
+
+Anna and Ben start to cry. They know they are in big trouble. They wish they did not play with the big squash. They wish they played with the small squash. They wish they were careful and safe. They wish they could say sorry. But it is too late. The end.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the yard. They saw a tall man working on the fence. He had a hammer and some nails. He was making the fence stronger.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Lee!" Lily said. She waved to the man. Tom waved too.
+
+"Hello, Lily and Tom!" Mr. Lee said. He smiled and waved back. "Do you like my hammer?"
+
+"Yes, it is big and shiny!" Lily said. "Can we see it?"
+
+"Sure, but be careful. It is heavy and hard." Mr. Lee said. He put down the hammer and let the children touch it.
+
+"Wow, it is heavy and hard!" Tom said. He tried to lift it, but it was too heavy for him. He dropped it on the grass.
+
+"Oops, sorry!" Tom said. He looked at Mr. Lee.
+
+"That's okay, Tom. It is not easy to use a hammer." Mr. Lee said. He picked up the hammer and showed the children how to hold it and swing it.
+
+"Can you teach us how to use a hammer?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe when you are older, Lily. For now, you can watch me and learn." Mr. Lee said. He went back to work on the fence.
+
+Lily and Tom watched him for a while. They liked the sound of the hammer hitting the nails. They clapped their hands and cheered for Mr. Lee.
+
+"Thank you, Lily and Tom! You are very nice and helpful!" Mr. Lee said. He finished the fence and gave the children a high five.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Lee! You are very tall and strong!" Lily and Tom said. They waved goodbye to Mr. Lee and went back to their toys.
+Lily likes toast for breakfast. She likes to put jam on her toast. Jam is sweet and sticky. Lily's mom makes toast for her in the toaster. The toaster makes a loud noise when the toast is ready.
+
+One day, Lily wants to make toast by herself. She sees the toaster on the counter. She climbs on a chair and pushes the button. She waits for the toast to pop out. She is very excited.
+
+But the toast is too hot. Lily tries to grab the toast with her hand. She says "Ow!" and drops the toast. It falls on the floor. Lily starts to cry. Her hand hurts.
+
+Lily's mom hears her cry. She runs to the kitchen. She sees Lily and the toast on the floor. She hugs Lily and says "It's okay, sweetie. The toast is very hot. You have to be careful. Let me help you."
+
+Lily's mom puts some ice on Lily's hand. She makes a new toast for Lily. She puts jam on it and cuts it into small pieces. She gives it to Lily on a plate. She says "Here you go, honey. This toast is not too hot. You can eat it now."
+
+Lily smiles and says "Thank you, mom. I love you." She eats her toast and jam. She likes it very much. She learns to wait for the toast to cool down before she touches it. She is happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the pool. One day, they go to the pool with their moms. But the pool is not nice. The water is dirty and green. There are bugs and leaves in the pool. The pool looks terrible.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They do not want to swim in the terrible pool. They say to their moms, "We do not like this pool. Can we go to another pool?"
+
+Their moms look at the pool. They are surprised. They say, "You are right. This pool is terrible. We do not know what happened. Maybe the pool man did not clean it. We are sorry. We will find another pool for you."
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They thank their moms. They get in the car. They go to another pool. The other pool is nice. The water is clean and blue. There are no bugs or leaves in the pool. The pool looks good.
+
+Lily and Ben are excited. They put on their swimsuits. They jump in the pool. They splash and laugh. They have fun in the good pool. They are glad they left the terrible pool. They say, "We love this pool. This is the best pool ever!"
+Tim and Anna were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, the sky was gloomy and it rained a lot. The park was full of mud. Tim and Anna did not care. They put on their boots and coats and ran to the park.
+
+They splashed in the puddles and made mud pies. They had fun. They saw a big hill of mud. They wanted to climb it. They held hands and started to go up. The hill was slippery and wet. They slipped and fell. They were covered in mud.
+
+They laughed and got up. They looked at each other. They were both dirty and wet. But they did not mind. They liked each other. They leaned in and kissed. They felt happy.
+
+But then they heard a loud bark. It was a big dog. The dog was angry. It did not like Tim and Anna. It ran towards them. It showed its teeth and growled. It wanted to bite them.
+
+Tim and Anna were scared. They tried to run away. But the dog was faster. It jumped on them and knocked them down. It bit their arms and legs. It hurt them a lot. They cried and screamed. They wished they had not kissed. They wished they had stayed home. They wished someone would help them. But no one came. The dog did not stop. It was a bad ending.
+Lily and Max were playing on the beach. They liked to make sand castles and dig holes. They found some shells and stones and put them on their castles. They were happy.
+
+Then they saw a big bucket and a spoon. They wanted to mix some water and sand and make mud. They ran to the bucket and took turns to fill it with water from the sea. They added some sand and stirred it with the spoon. They laughed and said, "Look, we made mud!"
+
+But they did not see the tide coming in. The water was getting higher and higher. It reached the bucket and spilled the mud. It washed away their sand castles and shells and stones. It wet their clothes and shoes. They were sad and scared.
+
+They cried and called for their mom. She heard them and ran to them. She picked them up and hugged them. She said, "Oh, my poor babies, what happened? Why did you play with the bucket and the spoon? Don't you know the tide is dangerous?"
+
+Lily and Max did not know. They said, "We wanted to mix water and sand and make mud. We thought it was fun. We did not see the tide. We are sorry, mom."
+
+Mom said, "It's okay, I'm not angry. But you have to be careful on the beach. The tide can be very fast and strong. It can ruin your things and hurt you. You have to watch the water and stay away from it. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They said, "Yes, mom, we understand. We will not play with the bucket and the spoon again. We will watch the water and stay away from it."
+
+Mom said, "Good. Now let's go home and change your clothes. You are wet and cold. Maybe we can come back another day and make new sand castles. But only when the tide is low and beautiful."
+Lily liked to play basketball with her big brother Tom. She had a small basketball and a hoop in the backyard. Tom had a bigger basketball and a hoop in the park. Sometimes, Tom let Lily join him and his friends at the park.
+
+One day, Tom and his friends were playing a game. Lily wanted to play too, but Tom said she was too little. Lily felt sad and sat on the bench. She watched Tom and his friends run and jump and shoot. They were very good.
+
+Then, Lily saw a chubby boy with glasses. He was sitting on the other bench. He had a basketball too, but he did not play. Lily went to him and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The boy looked at Lily and smiled. He said, "Hi, I'm Ben. Sure, I want to play with you. But I'm not very good. I can't run fast or jump high or shoot well."
+
+Lily said, "That's okay. I can't do those things either. But we can have fun. We can pass and dribble and perform tricks with the basketball. Do you know any tricks?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, I do. I can spin the basketball on my finger. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, please. That sounds cool."
+
+Ben picked up his basketball and spun it on his finger. He looked very happy. Lily clapped and cheered. She said, "Wow, that's amazing. Can you teach me how to do that?"
+
+Ben said, "Sure, I can. It's easy. You just need to balance the basketball and move your finger. Here, I'll show you."
+
+Ben and Lily played with the basketball and learned new tricks. They had a lot of fun. They did not care about the game or the other kids. They were happy to have a new friend.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big pumpkin that they wanted to carve for Halloween. But they could not agree on how to make the face. Lily wanted a happy face with a big smile. Ben wanted a scary face with sharp teeth.
+
+They began to quarrel and pull the pumpkin from each other. They shouted and cried and made a lot of noise. Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She was not happy with them. She said they had to share the pumpkin and work together.
+
+She gave them a knife and a spoon and told them to be careful. Lily and Ben said they were sorry and tried to cooperate. But they were clumsy and did not know how to carve. They cut the pumpkin too much and made a big hole. The pumpkin fell apart and they had nothing left.
+
+They felt sad and silly. They had ruined their pumpkin and their fun. They hugged each other and said they were sorry again. Their mom saw them and felt sorry for them too. She said it was okay and that they could try again with another pumpkin. She said she loved them and that they should always be kind to each other. Lily and Ben smiled and said they loved her too. They learned their lesson and never quarreled over a pumpkin again.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They were very happy.
+
+Then they saw a penguin. The penguin was black and white and had a funny beak. It was walking on the snow. Lily and Tom were surprised. They had never seen a penguin before.
+
+"Hello, penguin!" Lily said. "Where do you come from?"
+
+The penguin did not answer. It looked at them with its small eyes. It was very mysterious.
+
+"Maybe it is lost," Tom said. "Maybe it came from the zoo."
+
+"Or maybe it is a joke," Lily said. "Maybe someone put it here to make us laugh."
+
+They decided to touch the penguin. They wanted to see if it was real or not. They walked towards the penguin slowly.
+
+But the penguin did not like that. It did not want to be touched. It opened its beak and made a loud noise. It sounded like a horn. It scared Lily and Tom.
+
+They ran away from the penguin. They hid behind the snowman. They were very afraid.
+
+The penguin looked at them. It was not a joke. It was a real penguin. It was not happy. It wanted to go back to its home.
+
+It walked away from the snowman. It saw a big truck. The truck had a sign that said "Zoo". The penguin ran to the truck. It jumped inside. It hoped to find its friends.
+
+Lily and Tom watched the truck drive away. They saw the penguin wave at them. They waved back. They were not afraid anymore. They were curious.
+
+They wondered how the penguin got here. They wondered where it was going. They wondered if they would ever see it again.
+
+They decided to go home and tell their mom and dad. They had a very interesting story to tell. They had met a mysterious penguin.
+Anna liked to play in the living room. She had many toys and books there. She also liked the big armchair. It was soft and cozy. She could sit on it and read or nap.
+
+One day, Anna saw a new thing on the armchair. It was a shiny thing. It had many colors and shapes. It looked like a necklace. Anna wanted to touch it. She thought it was pretty.
+
+But Anna remembered what Mommy said. Mommy said, "Do not touch things that are not yours. That is not polite. You have to ask first." Anna knew Mommy was right. She was a good girl. She did not touch the shiny thing.
+
+She went to find Mommy. She said, "Mommy, can I see the shiny thing on the armchair? It is very pretty. Can I touch it?" Mommy smiled. She said, "That is Grandma's necklace. She left it here when she visited. You can touch it, but be careful. It is old and fragile. And you have to put it back when you are done. That is polite."
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "Thank you, Mommy. I will be careful and polite." She ran back to the living room. She touched the shiny thing. It felt smooth and cold. She looked at the colors and shapes. She imagined Grandma wearing it. She felt happy. She put it back on the armchair. She said, "Bye, shiny thing. See you soon." She hugged Mommy and said, "I love you, Mommy. And I love Grandma." Mommy hugged her back and said, "I love you, too, Anna. And so does Grandma."
+Lily and Ben were going to visit their grandma. They had to pack their things in a sack. Lily liked to pack her own sack. She put in her favorite doll, her original book, and her red hat. Ben wanted to help her, but Lily said no.
+
+"Let me pack your sack, Lily. You have too many things. You don't need your original book. It is old and boring. Take this new book. It has more pictures and colors." Ben said.
+
+"No, Ben. This is my sack. I want my original book. It is special to me. Grandma gave it to me. She likes to read it with me. Go away and pack your own sack." Lily said.
+
+Ben was angry. He did not like Lily's original book. He thought it was silly and childish. He wanted to make Lily take his new book. He grabbed Lily's sack and tried to pull it away from her. Lily held on to her sack and screamed.
+
+"Stop, Ben. Give me back my sack. You are mean and rude. Leave my things alone." Lily said.
+
+They pulled and pushed and fought over the sack. They did not hear their mom calling them. They did not see their dad coming to the door. They did not notice the sack ripping and tearing. They only saw each other's angry faces.
+
+Then, with a loud snap, the sack broke. All their things fell out and scattered on the floor. Their doll, their books, their hats, and their clothes. They looked at the mess and cried.
+
+Their mom and dad came in and saw what happened. They were very upset and disappointed. They scolded Lily and Ben for fighting and wasting time. They said they could not go to grandma's house anymore. They had to stay home and clean up their mess. They had to say sorry to each other and share their things.
+
+Lily and Ben felt very sorry and sad. They wished they had not fought over the sack. They wished they had been nice and helpful to each other. They wished they could see their grandma and read their books with her. But it was too late. They had ruined their trip and their sack. They had no one to blame but themselves.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. They loved all the seasons, but their favorite was autumn. They liked to see the leaves change color and fall from the trees. They liked to scatter the leaves and jump in them.
+
+One day, they went to the park with their mom. They saw a big pile of leaves and ran towards it. They were about to scatter the leaves when they heard a voice.
+
+"Hey, stop that! Those are my leaves!" It was an old man who lived near the park. He looked miserable and angry. He had a rake in his hand and a bag next to him. He was trying to collect the leaves for his compost.
+
+"But we just want to play," Lily said.
+
+"Too bad. These are not for playing. These are for gardening. Go find your own leaves," the old man said.
+
+He shooed them away and went back to his work. Lily and Tom felt sad. They did not understand why the old man was so mean. They looked around and saw that there were no other piles of leaves in the park. All the other trees were still green.
+
+They walked back to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. She saw their faces and asked what was wrong.
+
+"We wanted to scatter the leaves, but the old man said no. He said they were his leaves. He was very miserable," Tom said.
+
+"That's too bad. He must not like to share. Maybe he is lonely and unhappy. Maybe he needs a friend," their mom said.
+
+She thought for a moment and then smiled. She had an idea.
+
+"Why don't we make him a card and a gift? Maybe that will cheer him up. We can use some of the leaves and make a picture. And we can give him some cookies that we baked this morning. What do you think?" she said.
+
+Lily and Tom liked the idea. They thought it was kind and fun. They found some paper and crayons and some leaves. They made a card that said "Happy Autumn" and drew a picture of themselves and the old man. They put some cookies in a bag and tied it with a ribbon.
+
+They went back to the old man, who was still raking the leaves. They approached him carefully and said "Hello".
+
+He looked up and saw them. He frowned and said "What do you want?"
+
+"We want to give you this," Lily said. She handed him the card and the bag.
+
+He took them and looked at them. He opened the card and saw the picture. He opened the bag and smelled the cookies. He felt something in his chest. He felt surprised and touched.
+
+"Thank you," he said softly. He smiled a little.
+
+"You're welcome," Tom said. He smiled back.
+
+"Would you like to play with us?" Lily asked.
+
+The old man hesitated. He had not played in a long time. He did not know if he could. But he saw the twins' eyes and heard their voices. They sounded friendly and happy. They reminded him of his own grandchildren, who lived far away.
+
+"Maybe for a little while," he said.
+
+He put down his rake and his bag. He followed them to the pile of leaves. He watched them scatter the leaves and jump in them. He felt a warm breeze and a ray of sun. He felt something else in his chest. He felt joy.
+
+He joined them in the fun. He scattered the leaves and jumped in them. He laughed and they laughed. They played until the sun set and the air grew cold. They said goodbye and hugged. They promised to come back soon.
+
+The old man went back to his house. He looked at the card and the cookies. He felt grateful and happy. He decided to share his leaves and his compost with the twins. He decided to make some friends in the park. He decided to enjoy the season. He was not miserable anymore. He was glad.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big loop on the grass. It is red and shiny. They want to play with it.
+
+"Look, a loop!" Lila says. "Let's go and see it."
+
+They run to the loop. They touch it. It is smooth and cold. They try to lift it. It is heavy.
+
+"What is it?" Ben asks. "Can we play with it?"
+
+"I don't know," Lila says. "Maybe it is a toy. Maybe it is a ring. Maybe it is a hoop."
+
+They try to roll it. They try to jump through it. They try to wear it. They have fun.
+
+But then they hear a loud roar. They turn around. They see a big dragon. It is green and scaly. It has sharp teeth and claws. It has wings and a tail. It is angry.
+
+The dragon sees the loop. It sees Lila and Ben. It wants the loop. It thinks it is a snack. It opens its mouth. It breathes fire.
+
+"Run!" Lila shouts. "The dragon wants to eat the loop!"
+
+Lila and Ben are scared. They drop the loop. They run away. They hide behind a tree. They are worried.
+
+The dragon reaches the loop. It sniffs it. It bites it. It does not like it. It spits it out. It roars again. It flies away.
+
+Lila and Ben peek from the tree. They see the loop. It is bent and burned. They are sad.
+
+They go to the loop. They try to fix it. They cannot. They hug each other. They are sorry.
+
+They hear a voice. It is a man. He is wearing a hat and a coat. He has a badge and a bag. He is a scientist.
+
+"Hey, kids," he says. "What are you doing with my loop?"
+
+Lila and Ben look at him. They are confused.
+
+"Your loop?" they ask.
+
+"Yes, my loop," he says. "It is not a toy. It is not a ring. It is not a hoop. It is a part of my machine. It is a magnet. It can make things move. It can make things stick. It can make things float. It is very special. It is very expensive. It is very important."
+
+He sees the loop. He sees the dragon. He is shocked.
+
+"What happened to my loop?" he asks. "Who did this?"
+
+Lila and Ben tell him the story. They tell him about the dragon. They tell him about the fire. They tell him they are sorry.
+
+The scientist listens. He is angry. He is sad. He is curious.
+
+"A dragon?" he asks. "Where did it come from? How did it find my loop? What did it want?"
+
+He takes out a device. It is small and black. It has buttons and a screen. He points it at the loop. He points it at the sky. He reads the numbers. He nods.
+
+"I see," he says. "The loop was too strong. It made a signal. The signal was too loud. It reached the dragon. The dragon was hungry. It followed the signal. It thought the loop was food. It was wrong."
+
+He puts the device away. He picks up the loop. He puts it in his bag. He looks at Lila and Ben. He smiles.
+
+"Well, kids," he says. "You had quite an adventure. You saw something amazing. You learned something new. You did something brave. You did something wrong. But you did something right. You told me the truth. You said you were sorry. You are good kids."
+
+He gives them a hug. He gives them a candy. He says goodbye. He walks away.
+
+Lila and Ben watch him go. They eat the candy. They are happy.
+
+They look at each other. They laugh.
+
+"That was fun," Lila says.
+
+"That was crazy," Ben says.
+
+They hold hands. They go home. They tell their parents. They tell their friends. They tell their story.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They share a room and a bed. Every morning, their mom comes to wake them up for school. But Lily and Ben are very different. Lily likes to get up early and play with her toys. Ben likes to sleep late and snuggle with his blanket.
+
+One morning, Lily was very excited. She had a new dress and a new book to show her friends. She wanted to wake up Ben and tell him. She jumped out of bed and ran to his side.
+
+"Ben, Ben, wake up!" she shouted. "Look at my dress and my book! Aren't they pretty?"
+
+Ben groaned and turned away. He did not want to wake up. He did not care about Lily's dress and book. He wanted to sleep more.
+
+"Go away, Lily," he mumbled. "You are selfish. You only think about yourself. Let me sleep."
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She did not think she was selfish. She wanted to share her happiness with Ben. She did not understand why he was so grumpy.
+
+She ran to the door and opened it. She saw their mom in the hallway. She ran to her and hugged her.
+
+"Mom, mom, Ben is mean to me," she cried. "He won't wake up and he says I'm selfish. Why is he like that?"
+
+Mom smiled and hugged Lily back. She knew that Lily and Ben had different personalities. She wanted to help them get along better.
+
+"Lily, Ben is not mean to you. He is just sleepy. He needs more time to wake up and be ready for the day. You are not selfish. You are just happy and eager to learn new things. You and Ben are both wonderful, but you are different. And that's okay."
+
+Mom took Lily's hand and walked to Ben's bed. She gently shook Ben's shoulder and whispered in his ear.
+
+"Ben, Ben, wake up. It's time to get up and go to school. You don't want to miss the fun and the learning. And you don't want to hurt Lily's feelings. She loves you and she wants to show you her dress and her book. They are very pretty. Why don't you encourage her and say something nice?"
+
+Ben opened his eyes and rubbed them. He saw Mom and Lily looking at him. He felt a little guilty and a little curious. He sat up and looked at Lily's dress and book.
+
+"Wow, Lily, your dress and your book are very pretty. I like the colors and the pictures. You are very smart and creative. I'm sorry I was rude to you. Can I see your book?"
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Ben. She felt happy and relieved. She handed him her book and opened it.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are very kind and sweet. I'm sorry I was loud to you. Can I read you my book?"
+
+Ben nodded and hugged Lily back. He felt happy and interested. He listened to Lily's book and asked her questions.
+
+Mom watched them and smiled. She felt proud and hopeful. She encouraged them and praised them.
+
+"You are both wonderful, Lily and Ben. I love you very much. You are good at sharing and caring. Now, let's get ready and go to school. You have a lot to learn and enjoy."
+Tim and Anna liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was the big truck. The truck had a big space in the back where they could load things. They liked to load their toys, their books, their clothes, and sometimes their snacks.
+
+One day, they found a new thing to load. It was a shiny thing that made a loud sound. It was a trumpet. Tim and Anna did not know what a trumpet was, but they liked how it looked and sounded. They took turns to blow the trumpet and make noise. They laughed and had fun.
+
+But then, they heard a cry. It was their baby brother, Sam. Sam was in his crib, and he did not like the loud noise. He was scared and sad. Tim and Anna heard him and stopped playing. They felt sorry for Sam. They were compassionate.
+
+They ran to Sam and gave him hugs and kisses. They said sorry for making noise. They gave him the trumpet to play with. Sam smiled and stopped crying. He liked the shiny thing. He blew the trumpet softly and made a happy sound.
+
+Tim and Anna smiled too. They were glad that Sam was happy. They decided to play with their truck and load something else. They looked around and saw their dog, Spot. They had an idea. They called Spot and loaded him in the truck. Spot wagged his tail and barked. They drove the truck around the room, with Sam and the trumpet following them. They all had fun.
+Sara likes to help her mom in the kitchen. She likes to smell the herbs that mom puts in the food. Mom says herbs make the food tasty and healthy. Sara wants to learn how to use herbs too.
+
+One day, mom is making soup for lunch. She asks Sara to get some parsley from the garden. Sara runs outside and looks for the green leaves. She sees a lot of different plants, but she is not sure which one is parsley. She picks a leaf and smells it. It does not smell like the herb mom uses. She picks another leaf and smells it. It smells bad and makes her sneeze. She picks a third leaf and smells it. It smells good and fresh. She thinks this is parsley.
+
+She brings the leaf to mom and says, "Mom, I found parsley for the soup. Can I put it in?"
+
+Mom looks at the leaf and smiles. She says, "Sara, this is not parsley. This is mint. Mint is another herb, but we don't use it for soup. We use it for tea or dessert. Parsley is the one with curly leaves, like this." She shows Sara a picture of parsley on a book.
+
+Sara feels sad and says, "I'm sorry, mom. I tried to find parsley, but I got confused. There are so many herbs in the garden."
+
+Mom hugs Sara and says, "It's okay, Sara. You did a good job trying. Herbs can be tricky to tell apart. You just need to be patient and learn more about them. Next time, I will help you find the right herb. For now, let's use this mint to make some tea. How does that sound?"
+
+Sara smiles and says, "That sounds good, mom. I like mint tea. And I like learning about herbs with you."
+Lily and Max love to play in the sand. They have a big bucket and a small bucket. They fill the buckets with sand and make sand castles. They also dig holes and find shells and rocks.
+
+One day, they see a new shop near the beach. It has many toys and games. They ask their mom if they can go and look. Their mom says yes, but they have to stay close to her.
+
+They go inside the shop and see many things they like. They see balls, kites, puzzles, books, and dolls. They also see a new bucket. It is pink and has a picture of a unicorn on it. Lily thinks it is adorable. She wants to buy it.
+
+She asks her mom if she can buy the bucket. Her mom says she can, but she has to use her own money. Lily has some money in her piggy bank. She saved it from her birthday and chores. She says she has enough money to buy the bucket.
+
+She goes to the counter and pays for the bucket. She is very happy. She thanks her mom and hugs her. She runs back to Max and shows him her new bucket. He thinks it is cool. He says they can share it. They go back to the sand and play with their buckets. They have a lot of fun. They are glad they went to the new shop.
+Lily liked to play in the garden. She saw many flowers and bugs. She liked to look at them and touch them. One day, she saw a butterfly. It was yellow and black. It was very pretty.
+
+Lily wanted to catch the butterfly. She ran after it. She tried to grab it with her hand. But the butterfly was fast. It flew away. Lily followed it. She did not see where she was going.
+
+The butterfly flew into a big bush. Lily ran into the bush too. But the bush was dark and prickly. Lily felt something scratch her arm. She felt something crawl on her leg. She heard a loud noise. She was frightened.
+
+Lily started to cry. She wanted to get out of the bush. She wanted her mom. She called for her mom. But her mom did not hear her. She was too far away.
+
+Then, Lily heard a soft voice. It was a whisper. It said, "Don't cry, little girl. I am here to help you." Lily looked around. She saw the butterfly. It was on a leaf. It was talking to her.
+
+Lily was surprised. She said, "You can talk?" The butterfly said, "Yes, I can. I am a magic butterfly. I can help you get out of the bush. But you have to be quiet and follow me."
+
+Lily nodded. She wiped her tears. She said, "OK, I will follow you. Thank you, magic butterfly." The butterfly said, "You're welcome, little girl. Now, let's go." The butterfly flew out of the bush. Lily followed it. She was careful not to touch the prickles or the bugs.
+
+Soon, Lily was out of the bush. She saw her mom. She ran to her mom. She hugged her mom. She said, "Mom, I was in the bush. It was scary. But a magic butterfly helped me. It was yellow and black. It was very pretty."
+
+Her mom smiled. She said, "I'm glad you're OK, Lily. And I'm glad you met a magic butterfly. It sounds like a wonderful friend." She kissed Lily. She said, "Let's go home and have some juice. And you can tell me more about your adventure."
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "OK, mom. I love you." She looked at the butterfly. She said, "Bye, magic butterfly. Thank you for helping me." The butterfly said, "Bye, little girl. You're welcome. I hope to see you again." The butterfly flew away. Lily waved at it. She was happy.
+Lila was a little girl who loved to know things. She liked to ask questions and learn new words. She also loved her family very much. She had a mom, a dad, a big brother and a baby sister.
+
+One day, Lila's mom told her they were going to visit her grandma and grandpa. Lila was very happy, because she did not see them often. They lived far away, in a big city. Lila's mom said they were rare, because they were the only ones in their family who lived there.
+
+Lila packed her bag with her favorite toys and books. She wanted to show them to her grandma and grandpa. She also wanted to know more about them. She wondered what they liked to do, what they ate, and what they looked like.
+
+When they arrived at the big city, Lila was amazed by all the tall buildings, the noisy cars, and the busy people. She held her mom's hand tightly as they walked to her grandma and grandpa's apartment. She was a little nervous, but also excited.
+
+She knocked on the door, and her grandma and grandpa opened it with big smiles. They hugged and kissed Lila and her family, and invited them in. Lila saw that they had a cozy home, with many pictures, plants, and books. They also had a cat, who rubbed against Lila's leg.
+
+Lila felt happy and curious. She wanted to know everything about her grandma and grandpa, and their rare life in the big city. She asked them many questions, and they answered with love and patience. They also asked her questions, and listened to her stories. They played games, read books, and ate yummy food.
+
+Lila realized that even though they lived far away, and had a different life, they were still her family. And she loved them very much. She knew that they loved her too. And that made her feel very special.
+Tim and Liz are playing in the living room. They have many toys, but they like the big box the most. They pretend the box is a spaceship, a castle, a cave, and anything they can think of.
+
+One day, they decide to play a game. Tim says, "Let's scare mom and dad. You hide in the box, and I will call them. When they come, you jump out and say boo!"
+
+Liz thinks this is a fun idea. She nods and crawls into the box. She is very quiet and waits for Tim to call mom and dad.
+
+Tim runs to the kitchen, where mom and dad are making dinner. He says, "Mom, dad, come see what I made in the living room. It is very cool!"
+
+Mom and dad smile and follow Tim. They wonder what he has made. They walk into the living room and see the big box.
+
+Suddenly, the box shakes and Liz pops out. She shouts, "Boo!"
+
+Mom and dad are very surprised. They jump and scream. Then they laugh and hug Tim and Liz.
+
+Tim and Liz are happy. They say, "We scared you! We scared you!"
+
+Mom and dad say, "Yes, you did. You are very clever and brave. But don't scare us too much, okay?"
+
+Tim and Liz say, "Okay. We love you, mom and dad."
+
+They all sit on the couch and cuddle. They are a happy family.
+Lila and Tom were playing with a big box. They wanted to make a house out of it. They cut out a door and some windows. They found some string and some paper to decorate it.
+
+"Look, I made a flag!" Tom said. He tied a knot on the string and stuck the paper on it. He waved it in the air.
+
+"That's nice, Tom," Lila said. "But it's boring. We need more things to make it fun."
+
+"Like what?" Tom asked.
+
+"Like a roof, and a bed, and a lamp," Lila said. She looked around for more things to use.
+
+She saw a blanket on the couch. She grabbed it and ran to the box. She tried to fit it over the top of the box, but it was too big. It fell down and covered the door and the windows.
+
+"Hey, Lila, what are you doing?" Tom said. He pushed the blanket away from the door. He saw Lila's face.
+
+"I was trying to make a roof," Lila said. "But it didn't fit."
+
+"That's okay, Lila," Tom said. "We can try something else. Maybe we can fold it or cut it."
+
+"Or maybe we can use something else," Lila said. She smiled. She had an idea.
+
+She ran to the kitchen and came back with a colander. She put it on top of the box. It fit perfectly. It had holes that let the light in.
+
+"Look, Tom, I made a lamp!" Lila said. She turned it on and off.
+
+"That's awesome, Lila!" Tom said. He clapped his hands. He liked the lamp.
+
+They crawled inside the box. They made a bed out of some pillows and a sheet. They pretended to sleep and wake up. They had fun in their house. They forgot about the boring flag.
+Anna liked to play with her ball in the park. She could kick it, throw it, and bounce it. She was very good at playing with her ball. She was independent and did not need anyone to help her.
+
+One day, she saw a big net on the grass. It was red and blue and had many holes. She wondered what it was for. She ran to the net and picked it up. She thought it would be fun to catch her ball with the net.
+
+She threw her ball in the air and tried to catch it with the net. But the ball was too big and the net was too small. The ball bounced off the net and rolled away. Anna chased after it, but she did not see the dog that was running towards her.
+
+The dog was friendly and wanted to play. It saw the ball and thought it was a toy. It ran faster than Anna and reached the ball first. It grabbed the ball with its teeth and ran away.
+
+Anna was sad and angry. She wanted her ball back. She shouted at the dog, "Hey, that's my ball! Give it back to me!" But the dog did not listen. It wagged its tail and ran farther.
+
+Anna did not know what to do. She had lost her ball and her net. She felt lonely and helpless. She wished she had someone to help her.
+
+Then she saw a boy walking in the park. He had a big smile and a yellow hat. He saw Anna and the dog and the ball. He ran to Anna and said, "Hi, I'm Ben. Do you need help?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Yes, please. That dog took my ball and I can't get it back. It's my favorite ball."
+
+Ben said, "Don't worry, I have an idea. I have a bigger net in my backpack. We can use it to catch the ball and the dog. Do you want to try?"
+
+Anna said, "Yes, thank you. That sounds like a good idea. What's your net for?"
+
+Ben said, "It's for catching butterflies. I like to watch them and learn about them. They are very pretty and colorful."
+
+Anna said, "I like butterflies too. They are very nice and gentle. Can I see your net?"
+
+Ben said, "Sure, here it is." He took out his net and showed it to Anna. It was green and purple and had fewer holes. It was bigger than Anna's net.
+
+Anna said, "Wow, your net is very nice. Can I hold it?"
+
+Ben said, "Of course, you can. Here, you take this side and I'll take the other. Let's go and catch the ball and the dog."
+
+Anna and Ben ran to the dog, who was still playing with the ball. They held the net together and threw it over the ball and the dog. They caught them both.
+
+The dog was surprised and barked. It dropped the ball and tried to get out of the net. But the net was too strong and too big. It could not escape.
+
+Anna and Ben were happy and proud. They had gained back the ball and the net. They had also gained a new friend. They smiled at each other and said, "We did it!"
+
+They lifted the net and let the dog go. The dog was not angry. It licked their faces and wagged its tail. It was sorry for taking the ball. It wanted to play with them.
+
+Anna and Ben laughed and petted the dog. They said, "It's okay, dog. We forgive you. You can play with us and our ball and our nets. What's your name?"
+
+The dog barked and said, "Woof, woof. My name is Spot. I'm happy to meet you."
+
+Anna and Ben said, "Hi, Spot. We're happy to meet you too. We're Anna and Ben. Do you want to be our friend?"
+
+Spot said, "Woof, woof. Yes, I do. You are very nice and smart and brave. You are my friends."
+
+Anna and Ben said, "You are our friend too. You are very cute and friendly and fun. We like you."
+
+They played together in the park. They kicked the ball, threw the net, and chased the butterflies. They had a lot of fun. They were independent, but they also liked to help each other. They were happy.
+Sara liked to play dress-up with her dolls. She had many fancy clothes for them, like hats and dresses and shoes. She kept them in a big sack under her bed. One day, she wanted to make a new outfit for her doll Lily. She looked in the sack and found a pretty scarf with flowers on it.
+
+She wrapped the scarf around Lily's head and body, like a dress. She twisted the ends of the scarf and tied them in a knot. She thought Lily looked very fancy and pretty. She showed her to her mom and said, "Look, Mom, I made a new dress for Lily. Do you like it?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I do, Sara. You are very creative and clever. Lily looks lovely in her scarf dress. Can I see the other dolls too?"
+
+Sara nodded and ran to her room. She took out the sack and poured out all the fancy clothes. She picked up another doll and said, "This is Anna. She needs a new dress too. Maybe I can use this skirt and this shirt and this hat. Come on, Mom, let's play dress-up together."
+Sam and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One night, they saw a big, bright ball in the sky. It was the moon.
+
+"Look, Lily, the moon is so pretty!" Sam said.
+
+"Yes, Sam, it is. Do you think it is hot or cold?" Lily asked.
+
+Sam thought for a moment. He remembered that the sun was hot and made him sweat. But the moon did not make him sweat. It was cool and gentle.
+
+"I think the moon is cold, Lily. It does not hurt my eyes like the sun," Sam said.
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to touch the moon and see how it felt. She wondered if it was soft or hard, smooth or bumpy.
+
+"Sam, can we go to the moon?" Lily asked.
+
+Sam looked at his sister. He knew they could not go to the moon. It was too far and too high. They needed a rocket and a suit and a helmet. They did not have those things.
+
+"No, Lily, we cannot go to the moon. But we can examine it with our eyes and our imagination," Sam said.
+
+He pointed to the moon and said, "Look, Lily, I see a face on the moon. It has two eyes, a nose and a mouth. It is smiling at us."
+
+Lily looked at the moon and saw the face too. She smiled back and said, "Hello, moon. You are our friend."
+
+The moon winked at them and said, "Hello, Sam and Lily. You are my friends too. I like to watch you play and dream. Good night, my friends. Sleep well."
+
+Sam and Lily waved at the moon and said, "Good night, moon. Thank you for being so pretty and kind. We love you."
+
+They hugged each other and went inside. They brushed their teeth and put on their pajamas. They climbed into their beds and closed their eyes. They dreamed of the moon and its face. They were happy and warm.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to visit the harbor with their dad. They loved to see the big boats and the water and the birds. Sometimes they would wave at the people on the boats and they would wave back.
+
+One day, they went to the harbor and it was very empty. There were no boats, no people, no birds. Only water and wind. Lily and Ben felt sad and bored.
+
+"Dad, where are the boats?" Lily asked.
+
+"They are gone, Lily. There is a big storm coming and they had to go to a safe place," Dad said.
+
+"Can we go to a safe place too?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, Ben. We have to go home soon. But first, let's have some fun. We can play hide and seek or make sand castles or sing songs. What do you want to do?" Dad said.
+
+Lily and Ben thought for a moment. They wanted to see the boats, but they also wanted to have fun with Dad. They decided to play hide and seek. They took turns hiding behind rocks and barrels and walls. They laughed and shouted and ran.
+
+They forgot about the empty harbor and the storm. They had fun with Dad. They were happy.
+Tim and Mia are brother and sister. They like to play in the backyard. There are many toys and flowers and bugs there. But there is also a big dog next door. The dog is loud and angry. Sometimes he barks and jumps at the fence. Tim and Mia are scared of the dog.
+
+One day, Tim and Mia are playing with their ball in the backyard. The ball is red and shiny and bouncy. They throw it and catch it and roll it. They have fun. But then the ball goes too high and too far. It flies over the fence and lands in the dog's yard.
+
+"Oh no!" Tim says. "Our ball is gone!"
+
+"Maybe we can get it back," Mia says. "The dog is not outside. He is inside his house."
+
+Tim looks at the fence. It is tall and wooden and has a small hole. He can see the ball through the hole. It is near the dog's house.
+
+"I don't know," Tim says. "It is too dangerous. The dog might come out and bite us."
+
+"Please, Tim," Mia says. "You are big and brave. You can get the ball. I will watch for the dog. I promise I will tell you if he comes out."
+
+Tim thinks for a moment. He loves his sister and his ball. He wants to make Mia happy. He nods and says, "Okay. I will try. But you have to promise to be careful too."
+
+"I promise," Mia says.
+
+Tim crawls under the fence and runs to the ball. He grabs it and turns around. He sees the dog's house. It is dark and scary. He hears a growl. The dog is coming out. He is big and black and has sharp teeth.
+
+"Tim! Tim! The dog is coming!" Mia shouts.
+
+Tim is scared. He drops the ball and runs back to the fence. He tries to crawl under it. But the dog is faster. He jumps and snaps at Tim's leg. He catches Tim's pants and pulls. Tim screams.
+
+"Help! Help! The dog has me!"
+
+Mia is scared too. She sees Tim and the dog. She wants to help Tim. She picks up a stick and throws it at the dog. The stick hits the dog's head. The dog lets go of Tim's pants and barks. He chases the stick.
+
+"Tim! Tim! Come on!" Mia says.
+
+Tim crawls under the fence and joins Mia. They hug each other. They are safe. They have their ball. They are happy.
+
+"Thank you, Mia," Tim says. "You saved me. You are brave too."
+
+"Thank you, Tim," Mia says. "You got the ball. You are brave too."
+
+They smile and kiss. They promise to never go to the dog's yard again. They go inside and tell their mom what happened. Their mom hugs them and gives them cookies. They eat the cookies and play with their ball. They are not scared anymore. They are happy.
+Ben was sick and had to go to the hospital. He did not like the hospital. It was big and loud and scary. He missed his mom and dad and his toys.
+
+But there was a nice nurse who took care of him. Her name was Lisa. She gave him medicine and checked his temperature. She also joked with him and made him laugh. She told him funny stories and silly riddles. She made him feel better.
+
+One day, Lisa brought him a surprise. It was a big teddy bear. Ben hugged the teddy bear and smiled. He named it Joke, because it reminded him of Lisa. He thanked Lisa and told her she was the best nurse ever.
+
+Lisa was happy to see Ben happy. She said he was a brave and smart boy. She said he would soon go home and play with his mom and dad and his toys. She said he could keep Joke and take him with him.
+
+Ben felt peaceful and sleepy. He cuddled with Joke and closed his eyes. He dreamed of his home and his family and his friends. He was glad he had Lisa and Joke to help him. He was not scared of the hospital anymore.
+Lily was a big sister. She had a baby brother, Tom. Tom was an infant. He cried a lot and needed Mom and Dad all the time. Lily did not like Tom. She wanted Mom and Dad to return him to the hospital.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad had to go out. They asked Lily to watch Tom for a little while. They said they would be back soon. Lily said yes, but she was not happy. She was bossy to Tom. She told him to be quiet and stop crying. She did not play with him or hug him. She just watched TV and ate snacks.
+
+Tom was sad and lonely. He missed Mom and Dad. He wanted some love and attention. He cried louder and louder. Lily got angry. She yelled at Tom. She said he was a bad baby and she wished he was gone. She took him to his crib and threw him inside. She slammed the door and locked it. She did not care if Tom was hurt or scared.
+
+Mom and Dad came back. They heard Tom crying. They ran to his room. They saw the door was locked. They asked Lily what happened. Lily lied. She said Tom was sleeping and she did not want to wake him up. Mom and Dad did not believe her. They broke the door and saw Tom. He was bruised and bleeding. He was very sick. He needed to go to the hospital.
+
+Mom and Dad were very angry and sad. They called the police. They took Tom to the hospital. They did not talk to Lily. Lily was very sorry and scared. She realized she was a bad sister and she loved Tom. She wanted to say sorry and hug him. But it was too late. Tom did not return. He died. Lily was alone.
+Lila was a thin girl who liked to play with dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was a prince doll. She dressed him in a blue coat and a red hat. She pretended he was a kind and brave prince who loved her.
+
+One day, her brother Tom came into her room. He saw the prince doll and laughed. He said, "That doll is silly. He has a big nose and a small mouth. He is not a real prince. He is a clown."
+
+Lila felt angry and sad. She said, "No, he is not a clown. He is a prince. He is my prince. You are mean. Go away."
+
+Tom did not go away. He grabbed the prince doll and threw it on the floor. He said, "He is a clown. Look, he is frowning. He is not happy. He is funny."
+
+Lila ran to the prince doll and picked him up. She hugged him and said, "Don't worry, prince. I love you. You are not a clown. You are frowning because you are hurt. I will make you feel better."
+
+She took the prince doll to her bed and covered him with a blanket. She kissed him and said, "You are a kind and brave prince. You are my prince. You make me happy." She smiled and the prince doll smiled too.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play pretend. Today, they want to travel to the moon. They find a big box and a mop. They say the box is a rocket and the mop is a flag.
+
+"Ready to go?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Ben says. They climb into the box and make noises like a rocket. "Blast off!"
+
+They pretend to fly in the sky. They see stars and planets. They pretend to land on the moon. They get out of the box and hold the mop.
+
+"We did it!" Lily says. "We are on the moon!"
+
+They stick the mop in the ground. They say it is their flag. They jump and dance on the moon.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is Lily's mom.
+
+"Lily, Ben, time to come in!" she calls.
+
+"Oh no, we have to go back!" Ben says.
+
+They grab the mop and get into the box. They pretend to fly back to Earth. They land in the yard.
+
+"Bye, moon!" Lily says.
+
+"Bye, moon!" Ben says.
+
+They run to Lily's mom. She smiles and hugs them.
+
+"Did you have fun?" she asks.
+
+"Yes, we did!" Lily and Ben say. "We traveled to the moon!"
+
+They show her the mop. They say it is their flag.
+
+"That's very nice," she says. "But you know it's a fake flag, right?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They know it's a fake flag. But they don't care. They had fun. They like to play pretend.
+Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play music and sing. Sam has a guitar and Mia has a microphone. They have a big box that makes loud sounds when they plug in the guitar and the microphone.
+
+One day, they are playing music in the park. They sing a song about a dog and a cat. They are having fun. But then, a mean boy comes. He wants to play with the guitar and the microphone. He says, "Give me that! I want to play!"
+
+Sam and Mia say, "No! This is ours! Go away!" But the mean boy does not listen. He tries to grab the guitar and the microphone. Sam and Mia hold on tight. They do not want to share with the mean boy.
+
+The mean boy gets angry. He kicks the big box. He kicks it hard. The big box makes a loud noise. It sounds like a thunder. The big box breaks. The guitar and the microphone stop working. Sam and Mia are sad. They say, "You broke our music! You are bad!"
+
+The mean boy runs away. He is scared of the loud noise. He is scared of Sam and Mia. He is scared of the people who come to see what happened. He is sorry, but he does not say sorry.
+
+Sam and Mia look at the big box. It has a deep hole where the mean boy kicked it. They cannot fix it. They cannot play music anymore. They are very sad. They hug each other. They say, "We are still friends. We still have our song."
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. They had a kayak that their dad gave them. They liked to paddle on the lake and see the fish and the birds.
+
+One day, they saw a big boat on the lake. It was loud and fast and made big waves. Anna and Ben were scared and curious. They wanted to see the boat closer.
+
+"Let's go near the boat," Anna said.
+
+"No, it's too dangerous," Ben said. "Dad told us to stay away from big boats. They can hurt us and our kayak."
+
+"But I want to see it," Anna said. "Maybe they have something fun on the boat. Maybe they will let us play with them."
+
+Anna did not listen to Ben. She paddled harder and faster towards the boat. Ben tried to stop her, but he could not. He shouted at her, but she did not hear him.
+
+Anna got closer and closer to the boat. She saw some people on the boat. They were laughing and drinking and playing music. They did not see Anna and her kayak. Anna wanted to talk to them. She wanted to ask them a question.
+
+"Hello!" Anna shouted. "Can I play with you?"
+
+But the people on the boat did not hear her. They were too busy and noisy. They did not care about Anna and her kayak. They only cared about themselves.
+
+Suddenly, a big wave hit Anna and her kayak. The wave was so strong that it flipped the kayak over. Anna fell into the water. She was wet and cold and scared. She could not swim. She cried for help.
+
+Ben saw what happened. He was very worried and angry. He paddled as fast as he could to Anna. He reached her and grabbed her hand. He pulled her up and put her on his kayak. He hugged her and tried to calm her down.
+
+"Are you okay?" Ben asked.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Anna said. "I was stupid. I should have listened to you. I should have stayed away from the boat. They did not want to play with me. They did not care about me. They were mean and selfish."
+
+"It's okay, Anna," Ben said. "I'm glad you're safe. I love you. You're my sister. You're not alone. We have each other. We have our kayak. We have our dad. We have our friends. We don't need the boat. We have everything we need."
+
+Anna and Ben paddled back to the shore. They hugged their dad and told him what happened. He was happy that they were okay. He was proud of Ben for saving Anna. He was disappointed in Anna for disobeying him. He taught them a lesson.
+
+"Never go near big boats," he said. "They are dangerous and rude. They don't care about you or the lake or the animals. They only care about themselves. They are lonely and unhappy. You are lucky and happy. You have a family and a kayak and a beautiful lake. You have to respect and protect them. You have to listen and learn. You have to love and share. That's the moral of the story."
+Lily was a lazy bunny. She did not like to work in the garden with her family. She only liked to eat the radishes that her mother and father grew. One day, she saw a big, red radish in the corner of the garden. She thought it was the biggest and juiciest radish she had ever seen. She hopped over to it and bit it.
+
+"Ouch!" she cried. "This is not a radish! This is a pepper!"
+
+She spat out the pepper and rubbed her mouth. It was very hot and spicy. She looked around and saw a man standing by the fence. He was holding a basket of radishes. He had a big smile on his face.
+
+"Hello, little bunny," he said. "Do you like my peppers? I planted them here to trick you. You see, I recognize you. You are the lazy bunny who always steals my radishes. Well, not anymore. Now you will learn your lesson."
+
+He reached out his hand and grabbed Lily by the ears. He put her in his basket and closed the lid. He took her away to his house, where he planned to make a stew out of her.
+
+Lily was very scared and sorry. She wished she had listened to her parents and helped them in the garden. She wished she had not been so greedy and lazy. She wished she had not bitten the pepper. But it was too late. She had made a big mistake.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not be lazy and greedy, or you might end up in trouble.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to slide and swing and run. They see a big orange truck near the road. The truck has a loud sound. It goes "beep beep" and "vroom vroom".
+
+"Wow, look at the truck!" Lily says. "It is so big and orange and loud!"
+
+"Let's go see it!" Ben says. "Maybe we can join the truck driver and help him."
+
+They run to the truck and wave to the driver. He smiles and waves back. He opens the door and says, "Hello, kids. Do you like my truck?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Lily and Ben say. "Can we join you and help you?"
+
+"Sure, you can join me and help me. But first, you have to ask your parents if it is okay. And you have to wear these helmets and vests. They are orange, too. They keep you safe and seen."
+
+Lily and Ben run to their parents and ask them. Their parents say yes and help them put on the helmets and vests. Then they join the truck driver and climb into the truck. They feel very happy and excited. They make the truck sound with their mouths. They go "beep beep" and "vroom vroom".
+Lily and Ben went to the zoo with their mom. They wanted to see the dolphins, because they liked how they jumped and played in the water. Mom said they had to wait until the show started, and they could sit on the benches.
+
+But Lily and Ben did not want to wait. They wanted to see the dolphins now. They started to complain. "Mom, we are bored. Mom, we are hungry. Mom, we want to go closer to the water." Mom tried to calm them down, but they did not listen. They kept complaining.
+
+Mom said, "Okay, fine. You can go a little closer to the water, but not too close. And stay where I can see you. The show will start soon." Lily and Ben ran to the edge of the pool, where the dolphins were swimming. They thought they were very smart and brave.
+
+But they did not see the sign that said, "Do not touch the dolphins. They are not used to people. They may bite or splash you." They also did not see the modern fence that had electricity in it, to keep the dolphins safe. They reached out their hands to touch the dolphins.
+
+Suddenly, they felt a shock. The fence zapped them. They screamed and fell into the water. The dolphins got scared and angry. They bit and splashed Lily and Ben. Mom heard the noise and ran to help them. But it was too late. Lily and Ben were hurt and wet and sad. They wished they had listened to Mom and not complained. The end.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and slide and swing. It was a hot day, so they brought water and hats. Sara had a pink hat and Ben had a blue hat.
+
+They saw a big tree with a lot of shade. They decided to rest under the tree and drink some water. They put their hats on the grass and sat down.
+
+"Ah, this is nice," Sara said. "The shade is cool and the tree is pretty."
+
+"Yes, it is," Ben agreed. "But look at that bird. It is so ugly. It has a big beak and a long tail and no feathers on its head."
+
+Sara looked at the bird. She did not think it was ugly. She thought it was interesting. She wanted to see it closer. She got up and walked towards the bird.
+
+"Where are you going?" Ben asked. "Don't go near that bird. It might bite you."
+
+Sara did not listen. She wanted to touch the bird. She reached out her hand and said, "Hello, bird. You are not ugly. You are different."
+
+The bird did not like Sara. It did not want to be touched. It squawked and pecked at Sara's hand. Sara screamed and ran back to the tree.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Sara cried. "The bird bit me. It hurt me."
+
+Ben ran to Sara and hugged her. He looked at her hand. It had a small cut and some blood. He said, "I'm sorry, Sara. Are you okay?"
+
+Sara nodded. She was still crying. She said, "I'm okay, Ben. But the bird was mean. It did not like me."
+
+Ben said, "It's okay, Sara. The bird was scared. It did not know you. Maybe it thought you wanted to hurt it."
+
+Sara said, "But I didn't. I just wanted to be its friend."
+
+Ben said, "I know, Sara. But some animals are not friendly. They like to be alone. We have to be careful with them."
+
+Sara said, "You are right, Ben. We have to be careful. And we have to be nice to them, even if they are not nice to us."
+
+Ben said, "Yes, Sara. We have to be nice. And we have to be smart. Come on, let's go back to playing. But don't forget your hat."
+
+Sara said, "Oh, yes. My hat. I almost forgot it. Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend."
+
+Ben said, "You're welcome, Sara. You are a good friend, too. Let's go have some fun."
+Sam and Mia were playing in the living room. They liked to build towers with blocks and knock them down. Sam saw a cable on the floor. It was black and long and had a plug at the end.
+
+"Look, Mia, a cable!" Sam said. He wanted to see what it was for. He crawled towards it and tried to grab it.
+
+"No, Sam, don't touch it!" Mia shouted. She knew that cables could be dangerous. They could give you a shock or make things break. She ran after Sam and pulled him away.
+
+"Ow, Mia, you hurt me!" Sam cried. He was angry and sad. He did not understand why Mia stopped him.
+
+"Mia, why did you do that?" he asked.
+
+"Sam, I'm sorry, but you can't play with cables. They are not toys. They are for grown-ups. They make the TV and the lamp work. If you touch them, you could get hurt or make them stop working. And they are disgusting. They are dirty and dusty and have germs on them. You don't want to put them in your mouth or your hands, do you?" Mia explained.
+
+Sam thought about what Mia said. He did not want to get hurt or make things stop working. And he did not like disgusting things. He nodded and said, "Okay, Mia, I understand. You are a good sister. You saved me from the cable. Thank you."
+
+Mia smiled and hugged Sam. She was glad that he was not mad at her. She said, "You're welcome, Sam. You are a good brother. Come on, let's play with the blocks again. They are fun and safe and colorful."
+
+Sam and Mia went back to the blocks and built a new tower. They forgot about the cable and had a good time.
+Lily and Ben like to play with blocks. They make towers with the blocks. They make red towers, yellow towers, green towers and blue towers. They have fun with the blocks.
+
+One day, Lily has an idea. She says to Ben, "Let's dress the towers with clothes. We can make them look like people." Ben thinks this is a good idea. He says, "OK, let's do it."
+
+They find some clothes in the toy box. They find hats, scarves, shirts, pants, skirts and shoes. They dress the towers with the clothes. They make the red tower wear a hat and a scarf. They make the yellow tower wear a shirt and pants. They make the green tower wear a skirt and shoes. They make the blue tower wear a dress and a hat.
+
+They look at the towers and laugh. They say, "The towers look funny. They look like people. But they are not people. They are towers."
+
+They play with the towers and the clothes. They make the towers talk to each other. They make the towers dance and sing. They have fun with the towers and the clothes.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play with cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They liked to zoom them on the floor, on the table, and on the sofa. Sometimes they made noises like vroom, beep, and honk.
+
+One day, they decided to play with their cars in the bathroom. They filled the sink with water and pretended it was a lake. They zoomed their cars on the edge of the sink and made them splash into the water. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But Tim was impatient. He wanted to zoom his cars faster and farther. He did not listen to Sam, who told him to be careful. He zoomed his car so hard that it flew out of the sink and hit the mirror. The mirror cracked and made a loud noise.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the bathroom. She saw the broken mirror and the wet cars. She was very angry. She scolded Tim and Sam and took away their cars. She told them they had to pay for the mirror with their allowance. She also told them they had to clean the bathroom.

+One day, they see a big duck in the water. The duck is angry and chases their boat. Tim and Sam are scared. They try to steer the boat away, but the duck is faster.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shout. "The duck is going to get us!"
+
+A girl hears them. Her name is Mia. She is older and bigger than Tim and Sam. She likes to help animals and people. She runs to the pond and sees the duck and the boat.
+
+"Don't worry, I'll save you!" she says. She picks up a stick and waves it at the duck. The duck is scared and swims away.
+
+Mia reaches the boat and pulls it out of the water. The boat is heavy and wet. Tim and Sam are happy and thankful.
+
+"Thank you, Mia! You are very brave and kind!" they say.
+

+
+He saw a family inside the house. They were sitting around a table and eating a lot of yummy things. They looked happy and warm. The little owl wanted to join them, but he was afraid they would not like him. He thought they would think he was scary and ugly.
+
+He flew to a window and peeked inside. He saw a small girl with curly hair and a pink dress. She was holding a stuffed owl in her arms. She was talking to her mom and dad.
+
+"Look, mommy, daddy, this is my new friend. His name is Ollie. He is an owl. He is adorable. He has big eyes and soft feathers. He can fly and hoot. He is very smart and brave. I love him very much."
+
+The little owl heard her words and felt a warm feeling in his heart. He thought she was adorable too. He had big eyes and soft feathers. He could fly and hoot. He was smart and brave. He wanted to be her friend too.
+
+He tapped on the window with his beak. The girl heard the sound and looked outside. She saw the little owl and smiled. She ran to the door and opened it. She called out to the little owl.
+
+"Hello, little owl. Do you want to come in? Do you want to be my friend? Do you want to meet Ollie? He is an owl too. He is adorable. He is very lonely. He needs a friend like you."
+
+The little owl was surprised and happy. He flew to the door and entered the house. The girl hugged him and introduced him to her family and to Ollie. They were all very kind and friendly.

+
+"Maybe you left it somewhere else. Did you play with it outside yesterday?" his dad said.
+
+"No, I always put it in my box. I'm very organized. You know that," Tim said.
+
+"Maybe your sister borrowed it. She likes motorcycles too. Why don't you ask her?" his mom said.
+
+Tim went to his sister's room and opened the door. He saw his sister sitting on the floor, playing with his motorcycle. She was making it go fast and make loud noises. She did not see him.
+
+"Hey, that's my motorcycle. Give it back to me. You took it without asking. That's not nice," Tim said.
+
+"Sorry, Tim. I just wanted to play with it. It's so cool. Can I keep it for a while?" his sister said.
+
+"No, you can't. It's mine. You have your own toys. Go play with them. And don't touch my toys again. I'm very organized. You're not," Tim said.

+
+Anna and Betty walked and talked for a while. They enjoyed each other's company and the sound of the rain. They shared stories and jokes and secrets. Anna felt happy and warm. She was glad she met Betty and her umbrella.
+Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a lot of snow on the ground. They put on their coats, hats, gloves and boots and ran outside. They wanted to make a snowman and have a snowball fight.
+
+They found a big hill and decided to slide down on their sleds. Lila had a purple sled that was very fast. She liked to zoom down the hill and make a loud noise. Ben had a red sled that was not so fast. He liked to go down the hill slowly and enjoy the view.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's race!" Lila said. "My sled is better than yours. I can zoom faster than you."
+
+"No, thank you, Lila," Ben said. "I don't want to race. I like to slide down gently. It's more fun and safe."
+
+But Lila did not listen to Ben. She wanted to show off her purple sled. She pushed Ben aside and went to the top of the hill. She got on her sled and zoomed down as fast as she could. She did not see the big rock that was hidden by the snow. She hit the rock and flew off her sled. She landed hard on the ground and hurt herself. She cried out in pain.
+
+Ben heard Lila's cry and ran to help her. He saw that she had a big cut on her leg and a bump on her head. He wrapped his scarf around her leg and called for help. He was very worried about his sister.
+
+Lila felt very sorry for what she had done. She wished she had listened to Ben and not been so reckless. She learned a lesson that day. She learned that zooming is not always good. Sometimes it is better to be slow and careful.
+
+The moral of the story is: don't be too proud or too fast. You might get hurt or hurt others. Be humble and cautious. You will have more fun and be safer.
+Lila and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the sandbox.
+
+One day, they saw a little bird on the ground. It was hurt and could not fly. Lila and Ben felt sad for the bird. They wanted to help it.
+
+They ran to the bird and gently picked it up. They wrapped it in a soft cloth and carried it to a bench. They gave it some water and some bread crumbs. They stroked its feathers and talked to it softly.
+
+The bird felt better and started to chirp. Lila and Ben smiled and hugged each other. They were happy that they could help the bird.
+
+They decided to take the bird to the vet. They asked their moms to drive them there. They said goodbye to the bird and thanked the vet for taking care of it. They hoped the bird would get well soon and fly again.
+
+Lila and Ben were compassionate heroes. They loved animals and wanted to help them. They were also good friends who always stuck together. They never wanted to part.
+Tom and Lily were having lunch with their mom. They had soup and bread and cheese. Mom also gave them some celery to eat. Tom liked celery, but Lily did not.
+
+"Yuck, I don't want celery," Lily said. She pushed her plate away.
+
+"Why not? Celery is good for you. It is crunchy and green and has water inside," Tom said. He took a big bite of his celery.
+
+Lily made a face. "Celery is not good. It is bitter and hard and has strings. I want something sweet, like cake or candy."
+
+Mom heard them and came to the table. "Lily, you have to eat your celery. It has vitamins and fiber that help you grow and stay healthy. You can have something sweet later, but only if you finish your lunch."
+
+Lily pouted. She did not want to eat her celery. She wanted something sweet now. She looked at Tom, who was eating his celery happily. She had an idea.
+
+"Tom, can I have some of your cheese?" she asked.
+
+Tom nodded. He liked to share with his sister. He gave her some of his cheese.
+
+"Thank you, Tom. You are very nice. Do you want some of my celery?" Lily asked.
+
+Tom smiled. He liked celery. He reached for Lily's celery.
+
+But Lily was not really giving him her celery. She was tricking him. She pulled her celery back and said, "Ha ha, got you! I don't want to give you my celery. I want to keep it for myself."
+
+Tom was surprised and sad. He did not like Lily's trick. He felt like crying.
+
+"Lily, that was not nice. That was mean. You hurt Tom's feelings. You have to say sorry and give him your celery," Mom said.
+
+Lily did not reply. She looked down and felt ashamed. She knew she was wrong. She did not want to hurt Tom. She wanted to make him happy.
+
+She picked up her celery and gave it to Tom. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I was silly. You can have my celery. I don't like it, but you do. You are my brother and I love you."
+
+Tom took the celery and smiled. He said, "I love you too, Lily. Thank you for the celery. You can have some of my bread. It is soft and warm and sweet."
+
+They hugged and kissed. Mom smiled and said, "That's better. Now you are both good and kind. You can have something sweet later, but only if you finish your lunch."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They ate their lunch and enjoyed it. They were happy and full. They learned to share and care. They were good children.
+Tom and Mia were playing with their cars on the floor. They had a big box that they pretended was a garage. They liked to zip their cars in and out of the garage and make loud noises.
+
+But Tom wanted to have all the cars for himself. He was selfish. He took Mia's cars and put them in the box. He said, "These are my cars. You can't play with them."
+
+Mia was sad and angry. She said, "No, Tom. That's not fair. You have to share. Give me back my cars."
+
+Tom said, "No, I won't. Go away."
+
+Mia had an idea. She saw the drain in the bathroom. She ran to the bathroom and took the plug out of the drain. She came back to the box and said, "Tom, look. I have a surprise for you."
+
+Tom was curious. He said, "What is it?"
+
+Mia said, "It's a water slide for your cars. Watch this." She poured some water from a cup into the box. The water made the cars zip out of the box and into the drain.
+
+Tom was shocked and scared. He said, "No, Mia. Stop. You're ruining my cars. They're going down the drain."
+
+Mia said, "That's what you get for being selfish. Now you have no cars. Maybe next time you'll learn to share."
+
+Tom cried and ran to his mom. Mia smiled and picked up her cars. She said, "Now I can play with my cars in peace."
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play with toys. One day, they found a small toy car in the park. It was red and shiny. Lily and Ben wanted to play with it.
+
+"Can I have it?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Ben said.
+
+They both pulled the toy car. They did not want to share. They were angry and sad.
+
+Then, a big dog came. It saw the toy car. It wanted to play with it too. It ran to Lily and Ben. It barked loud. It scared them.
+
+"Help!" Lily and Ben cried.
+
+The dog grabbed the toy car in its mouth. It ran away with it. Lily and Ben could not catch it. They lost the toy car. They were very sad. They wished they had shared. They learned a hard lesson.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They saw a telephone on the table. They wanted to talk to someone.
+
+"Let's call Grandma," Lily said. She picked up the telephone and pressed some buttons.
+
+"Hello, Grandma?" she said. "It's Lily and Ben. We miss you. Can you come and play with us?"
+
+But there was no answer. Only a beep beep beep sound.
+
+"Maybe she is busy," Ben said. He took the telephone from Lily and tried again.
+
+"Hello, Grandma?" he said. "It's Ben and Lily. We love you. Can you bring us some cookies?"
+
+But there was no answer. Only a beep beep beep sound.
+
+They tried a few more times, but it was always the same.
+
+They felt sad and confused. Why didn't Grandma talk to them?
+
+Then they heard a voice from the kitchen.
+
+"Kids, what are you doing with the telephone?" It was Mom. She came into the living room and saw them with the telephone.
+
+She smiled and shook her head.
+
+"That's not a real telephone, kids. That's a toy telephone. It doesn't work. It only makes noises. You can't call anyone with it."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the telephone. They realized it was a toy. They felt foolish.
+
+They gave the telephone to Mom and hugged her.
+
+"Sorry, Mom. We didn't know. We wanted to talk to Grandma," Lily said.
+
+"Me too," Ben said.
+
+Mom hugged them back and kissed them.
+
+"It's okay, kids. You were just playing. But next time, use the real telephone. It's in the hall. Grandma would love to hear from you. Maybe we can call her later, okay?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and smiled.
+
+"Okay, Mom. Thank you. We love you," they said.
+
+They ran to the hall and looked for the real telephone. They hoped Grandma would answer. They had a lot to tell her.
+Tommy liked to play with his microscope. He got it from his grandpa, who was a scientist. Tommy liked to look at tiny things, like bugs and leaves and hairs. He thought they were very interesting and beautiful.
+
+One day, Tommy found a spider in his room. He wanted to see it with his microscope. He put the spider in a small jar and took it to his desk. He turned on his microscope and put the jar under it. He looked through the eyepiece and saw the spider very big and clear.
+
+"Wow!" Tommy said. "Look at its eyes and legs and fangs! It is amazing!"
+
+He called his sister, Lily, to come and see. Lily was older than Tommy, but she did not like spiders. She was scared of them. She did not want to look at the microscope.
+
+"No, thank you, Tommy," Lily said. "I don't like spiders. They are creepy and hairy and they bite."
+
+"Come on, Lily, don't be scared," Tommy said. "It is just a spider. It is in a jar. It cannot hurt you. It is an ordinary spider, like the ones you see outside."
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not want to see the spider. She did not think it was ordinary. She thought it was scary.
+
+"Please, Lily, just look for a second," Tommy said. "You will see how cool it is. It is not scary. It is awesome!"
+
+Tommy took Lily's hand and pulled her to the desk. He made her look through the eyepiece. Lily saw the spider very big and clear. She saw its eyes and legs and fangs. She screamed and ran away.
+
+"Tommy, you scared me!" Lily said. "That spider is not awesome. It is horrible! I don't want to play with your microscope. I don't like it!"
+
+Tommy was sad. He did not mean to scare Lily. He wanted to share his microscope with her. He liked his microscope. He thought it was fun.
+
+He put the spider back outside and turned off his microscope. He went to find Lily and said he was sorry. He gave her a hug and a cookie. He asked her if she wanted to play something else.
+
+Lily smiled and said she was sorry too. She said she was not mad at Tommy. She said she liked him, but not his microscope. She asked him if he wanted to play with her dolls.
+
+Tommy said yes. He did not like dolls, but he liked Lily. He wanted to make her happy. He said he would play with her dolls, if she would play with his microscope another day.
+
+Lily said maybe. She said she would try to be brave. She said she loved Tommy, but not spiders. They hugged and went to play. They were happy.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the office. They see a big box with many files. Lily wants to take a file and look at it.
+
+"Can I take this file?" Lily asks Tom.
+
+"No, you can't. It is dangerous. Mommy said we can't touch the files. They are for work. They have sharp things and big words." Tom says.
+
+"But I want to see. Maybe there is a picture or a story in the file. Please, Tom, let me take one." Lily says.
+
+She tries to take a file from the box. Tom tries to stop her. They pull and push. The file falls on the floor. It opens and many papers come out. Some papers have red marks and some have pins. Lily and Tom are scared. They hear Mommy coming.
+
+"Oh no, what have you done?" Mommy says. She sees the mess. She is angry and sad. She picks up the file and the papers. She puts them back in the box.
+
+"Lily and Tom, you are very naughty. You can't play with the files. They are dangerous. They are not for fun. They are for work. You could hurt yourself or ruin the work. You have to say sorry and go to your room." Mommy says.
+
+Lily and Tom say sorry. They are sorry. They go to their room. They don't want to play with the files anymore. They want to play with their toys. They learn their lesson.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. They like to use their imagination and pretend they are in different places. Today, they are pretending they are in a farm with many animals.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a cow and a pig. What do you have?" Lily asks.
+
+"I have a horse and a sheep. They are very fast and soft," Ben says.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud noise outside. They look out the window and see a big, scary tornado. It is spinning and blowing everything away.
+
+"Oh no, Ben, it's a tornado! We have to hide!" Lily says.
+
+"Where can we hide, Lily? The tornado is coming closer!" Ben says.
+
+Lily remembers what her mom told her about tornadoes. She says, "We have to go to the basement. It is safe there. Come on, Ben, follow me!"
+
+They grab their toys and run to the basement. They close the door and wait for the tornado to pass. They hear the wind howling and the things crashing.
+
+"Are you okay, Ben?" Lily asks.
+
+"I'm okay, Lily. I'm scared, but I'm glad we have each other and our toys," Ben says.
+
+They hug each other and their toys. They hope the tornado will go away soon.
+
+After a while, the noise stops. They hear their mom calling them.
+
+"Lily, Ben, are you there? It's okay, the tornado is gone. You can come out now," their mom says.
+
+They open the door and see their mom smiling. She hugs them and says, "You are very brave, Lily and Ben. You did the right thing. You were successful in staying safe."
+
+They smile and say, "Thank you, mom. We love you."
+
+They go outside and see the damage. The tornado broke some trees and fences, but their house and farm are okay. They are happy and grateful. They help their mom clean up and take care of the animals. They are glad the tornado is over. They hope it will not come back.
+Lila liked to play with her mom's jewelry. She liked the shiny rings and necklaces and bracelets. She liked to put them on and pretend she was a princess. But she did not ask her mom if she could play with them. She just took them from her mom's drawer when her mom was busy.
+
+One day, Lila found a new ring in the drawer. It was very shiny and had a big stone. Lila wanted to try it on. She put it on her finger, but it was too tight. It hurt her finger and she could not take it off. She started to cry.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lila with the ring on her finger. She was angry and worried. She said, "Lila, what did you do? That is my new ring. It is very special and expensive. You should not play with it. You should ask me first. And now it is stuck on your finger. We have to go to the doctor to take it off."
+
+Lila felt sorry and scared. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to play. I did not know it was special. I did not mean to hurt it or me. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I'm not mad at you, Lila. I love you. But you have to learn to respect other people's things. And you have to be careful with what you put on your body. Some things are not for playing. They are for wearing or giving or keeping. And some things can hurt you if they are too tight or sharp or heavy. Do you understand?"
+
+Lila nodded and said, "I understand, mom. I'm sorry. I will not play with your jewelry again. I will ask you first. And I will be careful with what I put on my body."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "That's good, Lila. I'm proud of you. Now let's go to the doctor and introduce him to your ring. Maybe he can help us take it off."
+Tom and Mia are playing in the living room. They have a toy gun and a toy vase. They pretend to be spies and bad guys.
+
+"Bang! Bang! I shoot you, bad guy!" Tom says, pointing the toy gun at Mia.
+
+"No, you miss me, spy! I shoot you back!" Mia says, throwing the toy vase at Tom.
+
+The toy vase flies in the air and hits the real vase on the table. The real vase is big and pretty. It has flowers and water in it. Mommy likes the vase a lot. She says it is perfect.
+
+CRASH! The real vase breaks into many pieces. The water and the flowers spill on the floor. Tom and Mia stop playing. They look at the mess. They feel scared and sorry.
+
+"Oh no! What have we done?" Tom says.
+
+"Mommy will be so mad!" Mia says.
+
+They hear Mommy coming. They hide behind the couch. They hope Mommy will not see them or the broken vase. They wish they had not played with the toy gun and the toy vase. They wish they had been more careful.
+Tim and Lily were twins who liked to play in the kitchen. They found a big jar of sugar and a teaspoon. They thought it would be funny to eat some sugar with the teaspoon. They took turns to fill the teaspoon and put it in their mouths.
+
+"Yum, this is so sweet and good!" Tim said.
+
+"Me too, I want more!" Lily said.
+
+They ate and ate until the jar was almost empty. They did not hear their mom coming home. She saw them with sugar all over their faces and clothes. She was very angry.
+
+"What are you doing? You know you are not allowed to eat sugar like that! It is bad for your teeth and your tummy!" she said.
+
+She took them to the bathroom and made them brush their teeth. Then she gave them some water and sent them to their room. They had to stay there until dinner. They did not get any dessert.
+
+Tim and Lily felt sick and sorry. They realized they had been naughty and greedy. They learned that eating too much sugar is not funny, but harmful. They decided to never do it again.

+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They saw a big tree with red apples. They wanted to eat some apples, but they were too high.
+
+"Let's reach for the apples," Tom said. "Maybe we can get them."
+
+They tried to jump and stretch, but they could not touch the apples. They saw a ladder leaning on the fence. Tom had an idea.
+
+"Let's use the ladder," he said. "We can climb up and get the apples."
+
+Lily was scared. She did not like the ladder. It looked old and shaky.
+
+"Tom, I don't want to use the ladder," she said. "It might fall. It's not safe."
+
+Tom did not listen. He wanted the apples. He thought they were magic. He thought they would make him strong and smart.
+
+"Come on, Lily," he said. "Don't be a baby. It's fun. The apples are magic. They will make us happy."
+
+He took the ladder and put it against the tree. He started to climb up. Lily followed him. She did not want to be left alone.
+
+They reached the top of the ladder. They saw the apples. They were big and shiny. They looked yummy.
+
+"Wow, look at the apples," Tom said. "They are so red and sweet. Let's pick some."
+
+He reached for an apple. He pulled it hard. The apple came off. But the ladder moved. It wobbled and slipped. It fell down.
+
+Tom and Lily screamed. They fell down too. They hit the ground. They felt pain. They cried.
+
+The apples rolled away. They were not magic. They were just apples.
+
+The end.
+Lily liked to wash her toys. She had many toys, but her favorite was a pink bear. She called him Fluffy. She washed Fluffy every day with soap and water. She made him very clean and soft.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to wash Fluffy, but she could not find him. She looked in her room, in the living room, in the kitchen, but Fluffy was not there. She felt sad and worried. Where was Fluffy?
+
+She asked her mom, "Mom, where is Fluffy? I want to wash him."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "I know where Fluffy is. He is on the bookshelf. He wanted to read some books with me. Do you want to join us?"
+
+Lily was happy and ran to the bookshelf. She saw Fluffy sitting on a pile of books. He had a big smile on his face. He was holding a book about bears.
+
+Lily hugged Fluffy and said, "Fluffy, I missed you. I'm glad you like books. Can I read with you and mom?"
+
+Fluffy nodded and said, "Yes, Lily. I love books. And I love you. But can you wash me later? I don't want to get wet now."
+
+Lily laughed and said, "Okay, Fluffy. I will wash you later. But only if you promise to wash me too."
+
+Fluffy agreed and said, "Deal. You are my best friend, Lily."
+
+Lily, Fluffy, and mom sat on the bookshelf and read some books. They had a lot of fun and learned many things. They were very happy.
+Lily liked to play with her toy trumpet. She would blow it and make loud noises. She thought it was fun and funny. But her brother Max did not like it. He was trying to read his book. He did not like loud noises.
+
+"Stop it, Lily!" Max said. "You are making too much noise. Your trumpet is fake. It is not a real trumpet. It is just a toy."
+
+Lily did not stop. She blew her trumpet louder. She liked her trumpet. She did not care if it was fake or real. She wanted to play with it.
+
+Max got angry. He got up and took the trumpet from Lily. He threw it on the floor. He said, "There! Now you can't play with it anymore. It is broken. You are a bad sister."
+
+Lily was sad. She looked at her trumpet on the floor. It was not broken. But she did not want to play with it anymore. She felt hurt. She started to cry. She said, "You are a mean brother. You made me sad. You are not nice."
+
+Max saw Lily cry. He felt sorry. He did not mean to make her sad. He did not like to see her cry. He picked up the trumpet and gave it back to Lily. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was wrong. You can play with your trumpet. It is not fake. It is a good trumpet. You are a good sister."
+
+Lily stopped crying. She smiled. She took the trumpet and hugged it. She said, "Thank you, Max. I'm sorry, too. I will not make too much noise. You are a good brother."
+
+Max smiled, too. He hugged Lily. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. I love you."

+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and share their things. Today is their birthday. They are very happy. Mom and Dad have a big surprise for them.
+
+"Come to the living room, Anna and Ben!" Mom calls. "We have a gift for you!"
+
+Anna and Ben run to the living room. They see a big box with a bow. It is very heavy. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Can we open it, Mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"Can we, can we?" Ben echoes.
+
+"Yes, you can!" Dad says. "But be careful. It is heavy and you need to attach something."
+
+Anna and Ben tear off the bow and the paper. They open the box. Inside, they see a shiny red bike. It has two wheels, a seat, a bell, and a basket. They also see a handle that is not attached to the bike.
+
+"Wow!" Anna and Ben say. "A bike! Thank you, Mom and Dad!"

+
+"Let's go say hi to the dog!" Tom says. He likes dogs. He thinks they are friendly and cute.
+
+"No, Tom, we can't!" Mia says. She is scared of dogs. She thinks they are loud and mean. "The dog might bite us or chase us. We have to stay away."
+
+Tom does not listen to Mia. He runs to the fence and calls the dog. "Hello, dog! Do you want to play with us?" The dog comes closer and licks Tom's hand. Tom laughs and pets the dog.
+
+Mia stays on the lawn. She does not want to go near the dog. She feels alone and sad. She wishes Tom would come back and play with her.
+
+She sees a bottle of juice on the grass. She is thirsty and hungry. She picks up the bottle and drinks some juice. She feels better.
+
+But then she hears Tom scream. She looks at the fence and sees the dog has jumped over it. The dog is running towards Tom. Tom is scared and tries to run away.

+Mia drops the bottle and runs to Tom. She grabs his hand and pulls him to the lawn. They hide behind a tree. The dog stops and sniffs the air. It sees the bottle of juice on the grass. It runs to the bottle and drinks some juice. It likes the juice. It wags its tail and barks happily.
+
+Tom and Mia peek from behind the tree. They see the dog is not angry anymore. It is just thirsty and playful.
+
+"Maybe the dog is not so bad after all," Tom says. He feels sorry for making Mia scared.
+
+"Maybe not," Mia says. She feels proud for saving Tom.

+One day, they see a lot of trash on the island. They are sad and angry. Who made the island dirty? They want to make the island clean again.
+
+"Let's pick up the trash and put it in the boat," Tom says.
+
+"Good idea, Tom. We can take the trash to the big bin," Mia says.
+
+They work hard and fill the boat with trash. They see cans, bottles, papers, and plastic bags. They wonder why people throw these things on the island.
+
+They take the boat to the big bin and empty it. They are happy and proud. They made the island clean again.
+
+They go back to the island and have a picnic. They eat sandwiches and fruits. They drink water and juice. They enjoy the green island and the blue sky.
+
+They make a promise to each other. They will always keep the island clean and tell others to do the same. They love the island and want to protect it.
+Ben and Lily were playing in their room. They had many toys and books, but they liked to make up stories with their dolls. Ben was the king and Lily was the princess. They had a big castle and a dragon.
+
+But then, the sky became dark and loud. It was a storm. Ben and Lily heard thunder and saw lightning. They were scared. They ran to their bed and hid under the covers.
+
+"Mama, mama!" they cried. "We don't like the storm!"
+
+Mama came to their room. She saw them shaking and crying. She smiled and hugged them.
+
+"Don't be afraid, my loves," she said. "The storm will go away soon. It's just noise and light. You are safe here with me."
+
+She kissed them and sang a song. She comforted them and made them feel better.
+
+She also turned on a switch. The switch made a lamp glow. The lamp was shaped like a star. It gave them some light and warmth.
+
+"Look, Ben and Lily," she said. "This is your star. It will watch over you and keep you safe. Whenever you feel scared, you can look at your star and remember that I love you."
+
+Ben and Lily smiled and thanked mama. They felt less scared. They cuddled with mama and their dolls. They watched their star and listened to mama's song. They forgot about the storm.
+
+But outside, the storm was still raging. The wind was strong and bitter. It blew the leaves and the trash. It knocked down a branch and a sign. It made a lot of mess.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not care. They were happy and cozy in their room. They had mama and their star. They had each other. They fell asleep in mama's arms.
+Lily and Ben were making a cake for Mom. They put flour, sugar, eggs and milk in a big bowl. Then they took turns to stir the mix with a wooden spoon.
+
+"Stir, stir, stir!" Lily said. "We want a smooth cake, not a lumpy one!"
+
+Ben nodded. He liked stirring. He liked making Mom happy. He loved Mom with all his heart.
+
+But then, Tom came in. Tom was Lily and Ben's big brother. He was bad. He liked to tease and hurt them.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" Tom said. He grabbed the bowl and the spoon from Ben. He threw the mix on the floor. "Ha, ha, ha! No cake for you!"
+
+Lily and Ben were sad. They cried. They felt a pain in their hearts.
+
+Mom heard the noise. She came in and saw the mess. She was angry. She scolded Tom and sent him to his room. She hugged Lily and Ben and said sorry.
+
+"Don't worry, my loves," Mom said. "We can make another cake. A better one. A cake with love."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They wiped their tears. They helped Mom clean the floor. Then they made another cake. A smooth, sweet, yummy cake. A cake with love.
+Lily and Sam were twins who liked to play in their big building. One day, they saw a new button in the elevator. It was red and shiny and had a star on it. They wanted to press it and see what would happen.
+
+"Let's go and press the button!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, but we have to be quick. Mom and Dad will be back soon." Sam said.
+
+They entered the elevator and pressed the button. The elevator made a loud noise and went up very fast. They felt scared and held each other's hands. The elevator stopped at the top floor and the doors opened. They saw a big room full of toys and candy. It looked like a dream.
+
+"Wow, look at all the fun things!" Lily said.
+
+"Maybe this is a reward for being good kids." Sam said.
+
+They ran out of the elevator and started to play and eat. They had so much fun that they forgot about the time. They did not hear the elevator beep or the door open. They did not see a man with a mean face and a big bag.
+
+"Hello, little ones. What are you doing here?" The man said.
+
+He was the owner of the room and he did not like kids. He saw that they had messed up his toys and candy. He was very angry. He grabbed them and put them in his bag.
+
+"Help! Help!" Lily and Sam cried.
+
+They wished they had not pressed the button. They wished they had listened to their mom and dad. They learned that being curious can be dangerous and that they should not enter places they do not know.
+
+The end.
+Lila and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys and make up stories. One day, they found a big box in the park. It was full of old clothes and hats and shoes. They decided to dress up and pretend to be different people.
+
+Lila put on a red dress and a shiny crown. She said, "I am a queen and this is my kingdom. You belong to me, Ben. You have to do what I say."
+
+Ben did not like that. He put on a green coat and a helmet. He said, "No, I am a soldier and this is a war. You are my enemy, Lila. I have to fight you."
+
+They started to argue and push each other. They forgot to have fun. They made a lot of noise and mess.
+
+A man came by and saw them. He was not happy. He said, "Hey, what are you doing? This is my box. I was going to donate these clothes to charity. You have no right to take them and ruin them."
+
+Lila and Ben felt scared and sorry. They said, "We are sorry, sir. We were just playing. We did not mean to hurt your things."
+
+The man sighed and said, "Well, I guess you were just being lively kids. But you have to be careful and respectful. These clothes belong to someone else. They are not toys. And war is not a game. It is very bad and sad. You should be friends, not enemies."
+
+Lila and Ben nodded and said, "You are right, sir. We are sorry. We will be friends again."
+
+They took off the clothes and put them back in the box. They hugged and said, "We are sorry, Lila. We are sorry, Ben. We are best friends."
+
+They ran away to play something else. The man smiled and shook his head. He hoped they learned their lesson. He picked up his box and walked away.
+Mia had a long day. She played with her toys, she read some books, she helped Mommy bake a cake. She was very tired. She wanted to sleep.
+
+But before she went to bed, she had to brush her teeth. She went to the bathroom and took her toothbrush. She saw something shiny in the sink. It was a silver ring. It was Mommy's ring. Mommy always wore it on her finger. Mia wondered how it got there.
+
+She picked up the ring and put it on her own finger. It was too big for her. It slipped off and fell into the drain. Mia gasped. She tried to reach for it, but it was gone. She felt scared. She didn't want Mommy to be mad at her. She didn't know what to do.
+
+She ran to her room and hid under the covers. She hoped Mommy wouldn't notice the ring was missing. She hoped the ring would come back somehow. She closed her eyes and tried to sleep.
+
+But she couldn't sleep. She heard Mommy's footsteps in the hallway. She heard Mommy open the bathroom door. She heard Mommy scream. She knew Mommy had found out. She knew she was in trouble. She wished she had never touched the ring. She wished she had just brushed her teeth and gone to sleep.
+Tom and Anna were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make noises and pretend they were animals. Tom was a lion and Anna was a monkey. They roared and chattered and had fun.
+
+Mom came in with a tray of juice and cookies. She smiled and said, "Who wants a snack?" Tom and Anna ran to the couch and sat down. They were hungry and thirsty. Mom gave them each a cup of juice and a cookie. She said, "Be careful, the juice is cold and the cookie is hot. Don't spill or burn yourself."
+
+Tom and Anna thanked Mom and started to sip and nibble. They liked the juice and the cookie. They were sweet and yummy. Tom finished his juice first and wanted more. He looked at Anna's cup and saw that she still had some juice left. He said, "Can I have some of your juice, Anna?"
+
+Anna shook her head and said, "No, this is my juice. You had yours. Go get more from Mom." She held her cup close to her chest and turned away from Tom.
+
+Tom felt angry and greedy. He wanted Anna's juice. He reached out and tried to grab her cup. Anna screamed and pulled back. The juice spilled and splashed on the couch and the floor. Mom heard the noise and came back. She saw the mess and the children. She was angry and sad. She said, "What happened here? Why did you spill the juice? Why did you fight?"
+
+Tom and Anna felt ashamed and frightened. They knew they did something bad. They looked at Mom and said, "We're sorry, Mom. We were playing and then we wanted more juice. Tom tried to take mine and I didn't let him. The juice fell and made a stain."
+
+Mom sighed and said, "You should not be greedy and selfish. You should share and be kind. You should not waste and spoil. You should be careful and clean. Now you have to help me clean up and say sorry to each other."
+
+Tom and Anna nodded and said, "Yes, Mom. We're sorry. We'll help you. We'll say sorry." They got some paper towels and wiped the juice. They hugged each other and said, "Sorry, Tom. Sorry, Anna. Let's be friends again."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's good. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Now you can have some more juice and cookie. But this time, pass the juice and share the cookie. And don't spill or fight again."
+
+Tom and Anna said, "Thank you, Mom. We love you. We'll pass the juice and share the cookie. And we'll be good and happy." They took their cups and cookies and sat on the couch. They passed the juice and shared the cookie. They were good and happy.
+Lily and Ben were twins who shared a room and a big mattress. They liked to play and read and cuddle on the mattress, but sometimes they also fought and pushed each other. One day, their mom said they were going to get new beds, one for each of them. Lily and Ben were excited, but also a little scared. They wondered if they would miss their old mattress and each other.
+
+The next day, the new beds arrived. They were small and colorful, with sheets and pillows and blankets. Mom helped Lily and Ben move their toys and books to their new beds. She said they could still play and read and cuddle on the mattress, but they had to part and sleep in their own beds at night. Lily and Ben nodded, but they felt strange.
+
+That night, Lily and Ben tried to sleep in their new beds, but they could not. They missed the warmth and softness of the mattress, and the sound of each other's breathing. They felt lonely and cold. They got up and tiptoed to the mattress, where they snuggled and whispered.
+
+"Ben, do you like your new bed?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not really. Do you?" Ben replied.
+
+"No. I want to sleep on the mattress with you. It's cozy and familiar," Lily said.
+
+"Me too. But mom said we have to part and sleep in our own beds. She said it's good for us," Ben said.
+
+"I don't think it's good for us. I think it's bad for us. I think mom is jealous of our mattress. She wants it for herself," Lily said.
+
+"That's silly. Mom has her own bed. She doesn't need our mattress. She loves us and wants us to be happy," Ben said.
+
+"Then why did she take away our mattress? Why did she make us part?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe she thinks we're too big for the mattress. Maybe she thinks we need more space. Maybe she thinks we'll like our new beds better," Ben said.
+
+"But we don't. We like our mattress best. Can we keep it? Can we sleep on it every night?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we can ask mom. Maybe we can make a deal. Maybe we can part some nights and sleep on the mattress some nights," Ben said.
+
+"Maybe. But I don't want to part. I want to sleep on the mattress with you always," Lily said.
+
+"Me too. I love you, Lily," Ben said.
+
+"I love you, Ben," Lily said.
+
+They hugged and kissed and fell asleep on the mattress, happy and warm. Mom found them in the morning and smiled. She decided to let them keep the mattress, as long as they promised to try their new beds sometimes. She realized that they were not ready to part, and that she was not jealous of their mattress, but proud of their bond. She kissed them and said, "Good morning, my sweet twins. I love you both."
+Sam liked to play music. He had a big drum and a small horn. He liked to make loud and fast sounds with them. He called his music jazz.
+
+One day, Sam's mom took him to a park. There were many people and animals there. Sam saw a big stage with a microphone. He wanted to perform his jazz music for everyone.
+
+He ran to the stage and climbed up. He took his drum and horn and started to play. He made a lot of noise. He said into the microphone, "Hello, I am Sam and this is my jazz!"
+
+Some people stopped and looked at him. Some people smiled and clapped. Some people frowned and shook their heads. Some people walked away. Sam did not care. He was having fun.
+
+But one person did not like Sam's jazz at all. It was a big dog. The dog did not like the loud and fast sounds. The dog thought they were scary and annoying. The dog barked and growled at Sam. The dog ran to the stage and jumped on Sam. Sam dropped his drum and horn and screamed.
+
+Sam's mom heard him and ran to the stage. She picked up Sam and hugged him. She said, "Are you okay, Sam? That was a very brave and unusual performance. But maybe next time, you should ask before you use someone else's stage. And maybe you should play your jazz somewhere else. Not everyone likes it, especially dogs."
+
+Sam nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I'm sorry. I just wanted to share my jazz. I love jazz."
+
+Sam's mom smiled and said, "I love you, Sam. And I love your jazz. But maybe we should go home now and play it there. Come on, let's go."
+
+Sam and his mom left the park. Sam still had his drum and horn. He still liked to play jazz. But he learned to be more careful and respectful of others. He also learned that not everyone liked his unusual music. But that was okay. He was happy and proud of his jazz.
+Mia and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park every week. They swing, slide, and run with their dog, Spot. One day, they see a big balloon in the sky. It is red and shiny.
+
+"Wow, look at that balloon!" Mia says. "I want it!"
+
+"Me too!" Ben says. "Let's try to catch it!"
+
+They run after the balloon, but it is too fast. They lose Spot and the park. They are in a new place. They do not know where they are. They are scared.
+
+"Where are we?" Mia asks. "Where is Spot?"
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "We are lost!"
+
+They start to cry. They want to go back to the park. They want to see Spot. They want to see their moms.
+
+A nice lady sees them. She has a mild smile. She walks to them.
+
+"Hello, little ones," she says. "Why are you crying?"
+
+"We are lost," Mia says. "We followed a balloon and we lost our dog and the park."
+
+"Oh, dear," the lady says. "Don't worry, I will help you. What are your names?"
+
+"I'm Mia and this is Ben," Mia says.
+
+"And what is your dog's name?"
+
+"Spot," Ben says.
+
+"OK, Mia and Ben and Spot," the lady says. "Let's find your way back. Do you remember what the park looks like?"
+
+They nod. They tell her about the swings, the slide, and the trees. The lady listens. She holds their hands. She walks with them. She looks for the park.
+
+Soon, they see the balloon again. It is near the park. They also see Spot. He is barking at the balloon. He is happy to see them.
+
+"Look, there is the park!" Mia says. "And there is Spot!"
+
+"And there is the balloon!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the park. They hug Spot. They thank the lady. They wave at the balloon.
+
+They are not lost anymore. They are happy. They learned a lesson. They will not follow balloons again. They will stay in the park with Spot. They will play every week. They are best friends.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball and a kite. They also have sandwiches for lunch.
+
+One day, they walk to the park with their mom. They see a big dog. The dog is black and white. The dog runs to them and barks. Anna and Ben are scared. They hide behind their mom.
+
+"Go away, dog!" their mom says. "You are not nice. You make my children afraid."
+
+But the dog does not go away. The dog sees the sandwiches. The dog is hungry. The dog jumps and grabs a sandwich. The sandwich is Ben's. Ben is angry.
+
+"Hey, that's my sandwich!" Ben shouts. "Give it back, dog!"
+
+Ben runs after the dog. He tries to get his sandwich. But the dog is faster. The dog eats the sandwich. Ben is very angry. He cries.
+
+Anna feels sorry for Ben. She has an idea. She walks to Ben and gives him her sandwich.
+
+"Here, Ben," she says. "You can have my sandwich. I don't mind. We can share."
+
+Ben stops crying. He smiles. He hugs Anna.
+
+"Thank you, Anna," he says. "You are a good friend. I'm sorry I was angry."
+
+They sit down and eat the sandwich. They are happy. The dog is gone. They play with their ball and their kite. They have fun in the park.
+Tom and Ben are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. Tom has a red car that can speed very fast. Ben has a blue car that has a lot of power. They want to see which car is better.
+
+They go to the park and find a big hill. They put their cars at the top of the hill and say "Ready, set, go!" They push their cars down the hill and watch them roll. Tom's car speeds ahead of Ben's car. Tom is happy and says "My car is faster than your car!"
+
+Ben is sad and says "No, my car is stronger than your car!" He runs after his car and tries to catch it. He does not see a big rock in his way. He trips over the rock and falls. He hurts his knee and cries. His car hits a tree and breaks.
+
+Tom hears Ben cry and stops his car. He runs to Ben and says "Are you okay?" He sees Ben's knee and his broken car. He feels sorry and says "I'm sorry, Ben. I did not mean to make you sad. Your car is very good. It has a lot of power."
+
+Ben looks at Tom and says "Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend. Your car is very good too. It can speed very fast." He smiles a little and says "But we should be careful. We should not play on the hill. It is dangerous. We could get hurt."
+
+Tom nods and says "You are right, Ben. We should play somewhere else. Somewhere safe and flat. We should also be intelligent and watch where we are going." He helps Ben stand up and says "Come on, let's go home. I will help you fix your car."
+
+They walk home together, holding their cars. They are still friends, but they are not happy. They learned a hard lesson. Playing with cars can be fun, but it can also be risky. They wish they had been more intelligent and careful.
+Tim and Lily wanted to go to the store with Mom. They liked to look at the toys and books and candy. Mom said they could each pick one thing to buy, but they had to be good and not fight.
+
+Tim saw a big truck with wheels and lights. He wanted it very much. He grabbed it and ran to Mom. Lily saw a pretty doll with a dress and hair. She wanted it very much. She grabbed it and ran to Mom.
+
+But when they got to Mom, they saw that the truck and the doll were very expensive. Mom said they could not buy them. They had to put them back and find something cheaper. Tim and Lily were very sad and angry. They started to cry and yell.
+
+Mom tried to calm them down. She said they could still find something nice and fun. She showed them some stickers and crayons and puzzles. But Tim and Lily did not want them. They wanted the truck and the doll.
+
+Then they saw a boy and a girl who had no toys at all. They looked very poor and hungry. They were sitting on a bench outside the store. They looked at Tim and Lily with big eyes.
+
+Tim and Lily felt sorry for them. They remembered that they had many toys at home. They did not need the truck and the doll. They decided to be generous and share. They took the stickers and crayons and puzzles and gave them to the boy and the girl. They said they could have them and play with them.
+
+The boy and the girl were very happy and surprised. They thanked Tim and Lily and hugged them. They said they were very kind and generous. They said they had no friends and no toys. They asked if they could be friends with Tim and Lily.
+
+Tim and Lily smiled and nodded. They said they would love to be friends with them. They said they could play together and share their toys. They said they had a lot of fun things at home.
+
+Mom was very proud of Tim and Lily. She said they did a very good thing. She said they were very generous and kind. She said they had a big win in their hearts. She said she would buy them a treat for being so good.
+
+Tim and Lily were very happy. They did not care about the truck and the doll anymore. They had new friends and a treat. They hugged Mom and said they loved her. They said they loved the store and the stickers and the crayons and the puzzles. They said they loved their new friends. They said they had the best day ever.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to bake cookies with their mom. They helped her mix the flour, sugar, butter and chocolate chips in a big bowl. Then they made small balls of dough and put them on a tray.
+
+"Can we put them in the oven now, mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. The oven is too hot. We have to wait a little bit," mom said.
+
+Lily hated waiting. She wanted to eat the cookies right away. She thought the oven was mean and slow. She decided to sneak a peek at the oven and see if it was ready.
+
+She walked to the oven and opened the door. A blast of hot air hit her face. She screamed and ran back to mom.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The oven burned me, mom!" Lily cried.
+
+Mom hugged her and checked her face. She saw a small red mark on her cheek.
+
+"Oh, honey, I'm so sorry. You should never touch the oven. It's very dangerous. It can hurt you badly," mom said.
+
+She put some ice on Lily's cheek and gave her a kiss.
+
+"Does it feel better now?" mom asked.
+
+"A little bit," Lily said.
+
+Tom felt sorry for his sister. He gave her a hug and said, "Don't worry, Lily. The cookies will be ready soon. And they will be the best cookies ever. Everyone will love them. You will be very popular."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Tom. You are a good brother. I love you."
+
+"I love you too, Lily. And I love mom. And I love cookies. But I hate the oven," Tom said.
+
+Mom laughed and said, "I love you all too. And I don't hate the oven. I just respect it. It helps us make yummy things. But we have to be careful and follow the rules. Okay?"
+
+"Okay, mom," Tom and Lily said.
+
+They waited patiently until the oven beeped. Then mom took out the tray and put it on the counter. The cookies smelled delicious and looked golden and gooey.
+
+"Wow, they look amazing, mom!" Tom said.
+
+"Can we have one, mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, my darlings. But be careful, they are still hot. Let them cool down a bit first," mom said.
+
+They each took a cookie and blew on it. Then they took a bite and smiled.
+
+"Mmm, they are so good, mom!" Lily said.
+
+"Best cookies ever, mom!" Tom said.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you like them. You are the best helpers ever. I'm so proud of you."
+
+They ate their cookies and drank some milk. They felt happy and warm. They forgot about the oven and the burn. They only remembered the love and the fun.
+Mia and her daddy went to the park. Mia liked to play on the swings and the slide. She saw a big dog with a red ball. She wanted to pet the dog and play with the ball.
+
+She ran to the dog and said, "Hi, doggy! Can I touch you? Can I have your ball?" The dog barked and wagged his tail. He dropped the ball and licked Mia's face. Mia giggled and hugged the dog.
+
+The dog's owner came over and smiled. He said, "Hello, little girl. What's your name? Do you like my dog? His name is Rex." Mia nodded and said, "I'm Mia. Rex is nice. He gave me his ball."
+
+The owner said, "That's very kind of him. But he might want it back soon. He loves to fetch and chase." He threw the ball and Rex ran after it. Mia followed him and threw the ball again.
+
+Daddy watched Mia and the dog play. He was happy that Mia made a new friend. He walked over to the owner and said, "Hi, I'm Mia's daddy. She loves animals. Thank you for letting her play with your dog."
+
+The owner said, "You're welcome. I'm Tom. Rex is always happy to meet new people. He's very friendly and gentle." He looked at Mia and Rex and said, "They seem to have a lot of fun."
+
+Daddy said, "Yes, they do. Mia, do you want to say goodbye to Rex and Tom? We have to go home soon." Mia shook her head and said, "No, daddy. I want to play more. Rex is my friend."
+
+Daddy said, "I know, sweetie. But we can't stay here all day. Maybe we can come back another time and see Rex again. How about that?" Mia thought for a moment and said, "Okay, daddy. But can I give Rex a hug and a kiss?"
+
+Daddy said, "Of course you can. But be gentle and ask Tom first." Mia ran to Tom and said, "Can I hug Rex and kiss him? Please?" Tom said, "Sure, Mia. Go ahead. Rex likes hugs and kisses."
+
+Mia hugged Rex and kissed his nose. Rex licked her cheek and wagged his tail. Mia said, "Bye, Rex. I love you. You're a good dog." Rex barked and nuzzled her. Mia said, "Bye, Tom. Thank you for sharing Rex with me. You're a nice man."
+
+Tom said, "Bye, Mia. You're very welcome. You're a sweet girl. I hope to see you again soon." He waved to Mia and daddy. Daddy took Mia's hand and said, "Let's go, Mia. Say thank you to Tom and Rex one more time."
+
+Mia said, "Thank you, Tom and Rex. You're the best." She waved to them and smiled. Daddy and Mia walked to the car. Daddy said, "Did you have fun, Mia?" Mia said, "Yes, daddy. I had a lot of fun. Rex is my new friend. Can we get a dog like Rex, daddy?"
+
+Daddy shrugged and said, "I don't know, Mia. Dogs are a lot of work. They need food and water and walks and toys and love. Do you think you can take care of a dog?" Mia said, "Yes, daddy. I can do all that. I can be a good mommy to a dog."
+
+Daddy said, "Well, maybe we can talk about it later. But for now, let's go home and have some lunch. You must be hungry after playing so much." Mia said, "Yes, daddy. I'm hungry. But I'm also happy. I love you, daddy."
+
+Daddy said, "I love you too, Mia. You're my little princess." He kissed her forehead and buckled her seat belt. He started the car and drove home. Mia looked out the window and thought about Rex. She hoped to see him again soon. She closed her eyes and dreamed of having a dog of her own.
+Bee and Bear were friends. They liked to play in the forest and share honey. One day, they found a big jar of honey in a cabin. Bee was very happy and flew to the jar. Bear followed him.
+
+"Look, Bear, so much honey!" Bee said. "Let's take some and go back to our home."
+
+But when they tried to open the jar, they could not. It was locked with a metal thing. Bee and Bear pushed and pulled, but the jar did not move.
+
+"Who locked the honey?" Bee asked. "That is very rude. Honey is for everyone."
+
+Bear agreed. He was hungry and wanted some honey. He looked around and saw a window. He had an idea.
+
+"Maybe we can break the window and get the honey," he said. "But we have to be quiet. The cabin belongs to a man. He might hear us and get angry."
+
+Bee and Bear nodded. They went to the window and tried to break it. But the window was strong and did not break. They made a lot of noise. The man in the cabin heard them and came out. He saw Bee and Bear and shouted.
+
+"Hey, you two, get away from my honey!" he said. "That is my honey. I locked it for a reason. You are very rude and naughty. Go away or I will call the ranger."
+
+Bee and Bear were scared. They did not want to fight with the man or the ranger. They ran away from the cabin and back to the forest. They were sad and hungry.
+
+"Maybe we can find some other honey," Bee said. "Or some berries or nuts. Something sweet and yummy."
+
+Bear nodded. He was sorry for trying to take the man's honey. He learned that it was not nice to take things that did not belong to him.
+
+"Maybe the man will share his honey with us someday," he said. "If we are nice and polite. And maybe we can share our things with him too. That is what friends do."

+
+"But, mule, if you do not work, we will have no food for the winter. Please, help me," said Lily.

+
+She left the stage and came back with a stuffed horse. She pretended to plow the field and plant the seeds with the horse. She smiled and sang.

+Tom and Ann are sorry. They did not know the file was bad. They thought it was cheerful and friendly. They learned a lesson. They will never feed the file again. They will only play with their safe toys.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big pole with a swing. Lily wants to try the swing. She runs to the pole and grabs the rope.
+
+"Can I go first?" she asks Ben.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The pole is hot from the sun," Ben says.
+
+Lily nods and sits on the swing. She pushes with her feet and goes up and down. She feels the wind on her face and laughs. She likes the swing.
+
+Ben watches Lily and waits for his turn. He sees a bird on a tree. The bird is singing a nice song. Ben tries to sing along.
+
+Lily swings higher and higher. She feels brave and happy. She wants to do a trick. She lets go of the rope and tries to hang from the pole with her hands.
+
+But the pole is too hot. It burns her hands. She cries out and falls to the ground.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she says.
+
+Ben hears Lily and runs to her. He sees her hands are red and sore. He feels sorry for her.
+
+"Are you OK, Lily?" he asks.
+
+"No, it hurts. The pole is too hot. It bit me," Lily says.
+
+Ben hugs Lily and tries to make her feel better. He says, "I'm sorry, Lily. The pole is mean. Let's go to the fountain and cool your hands. Then we can play something else."
+
+Lily nods and wipes her tears. She holds Ben's hand and they walk to the fountain. They splash water on Lily's hands and smile. They are friends.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big trunk under a tree. It was new and shiny. Sara wanted to open it and see what was inside.
+
+"Let's go and look," she said to Ben.
+
+Ben was scared. He thought the trunk belonged to someone else. He did not want to touch it.
+
+"No, Sara, we should not. It is not ours. Maybe someone will be angry," he said to Sara.
+
+But Sara did not listen. She ran to the trunk and pulled the lid. It was heavy, but she opened it. Inside, there were many things. There were clothes, toys, books, and a big teddy bear.
+
+"Wow, look at all these things!" Sara said. "They are so pretty and fun. Can we take some?"
+
+Ben shook his head. He felt bad. He wanted to go away.
+
+"No, Sara, we can't. They are not ours. We should put them back and close the lid," he said.
+
+But Sara did not listen. She took the teddy bear and hugged it. She liked it very much. She wanted to keep it.
+
+"Please, Ben, just this one. It is so soft and cute. I love it," she said.
+
+Ben sighed. He did not know what to do. He liked Sara, but he did not like what she was doing. He looked around and saw a man walking towards them. He had a hat and a coat. He looked angry.
+
+"Uh-oh, Sara, look. There is someone coming. He looks like the owner of the trunk. We should put everything back and run," he said.
+
+But Sara did not listen. She held the teddy bear tighter. She did not want to give it up.
+
+"No, Ben, I want it. It is mine now. He won't notice," she said.
+
+But the man did notice. He saw Sara and Ben by his trunk. He saw Sara holding his teddy bear. He shouted at them.
+
+"Hey, you two, what are you doing? That is my trunk and my things. Give me back my teddy bear. How dare you steal from me?" he said.
+
+Sara and Ben were scared. They dropped everything and ran. They ran back to their parents, who were sitting on a bench. They were out of breath and crying.
+
+"What happened, Sara and Ben? Why are you so upset?" their parents asked.
+
+Sara and Ben told them what they did. They told them how they opened the trunk and took the things. They told them how the man yelled at them and chased them.
+
+Their parents were not happy. They were angry and disappointed. They scolded Sara and Ben for being naughty and dishonest. They made them go back to the trunk and apologize to the man. They made them give back the teddy bear and say sorry.
+
+Sara and Ben felt bad. They regretted what they did. They learned their lesson. They never opened a trunk that was not theirs again. They never took things that were not theirs again. They never made their parents angry again. They were sorry and sad. They wished they had listened to Ben. They wished they had not seen the trunk. They wished they had played with something else.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the yard. They liked to pretend they were mail carriers and deliver letters to each other. They made their own mail out of paper and crayons. They had a lot of fun.
+
+One day, they saw a big truck stop in front of their house. It was the real mail carrier. He had a big bag of mail. He got out of the truck and walked to the door. He rang the bell.
+
+Tim and Lily ran to the door. They wanted to see the mail. They opened the door and said hello to the mail carrier.
+
+"Hello, kids. I have some mail for you. Do you want to help me sort it?" the mail carrier said.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tim and Lily said. They were very excited.
+
+The mail carrier gave them some letters and packages. He told them to look at the names and addresses. He said they had to give the mail to the people who belonged to them.
+
+Tim and Lily started to sort the mail. They found some mail for their mom and dad. They put it on the table. They found some mail for their grandma and grandpa. They put it on the couch. They found some mail for their neighbors. They put it on the floor.
+
+They also found some mail for themselves. They had some cards and stickers and toys. They were very happy. They opened their mail and played with their toys.
+
+They forgot about the mail carrier. They forgot about the other mail. They forgot to close the door.
+
+The mail carrier was angry. He saw that Tim and Lily had opened their mail and left the other mail on the floor. He saw that they had not closed the door. He saw that they had not listened to him. He yelled at them.
+
+"Hey, kids! What are you doing? You can't open your mail before you deliver the other mail. You can't leave the mail on the floor. You can't leave the door open. You are very naughty. You don't belong to be mail carriers. You belong to be in trouble. Give me back my mail. Give me back my toys. Go to your room. Now!"
+
+Tim and Lily were frightened. They had never heard the mail carrier yell before. They had never seen him so mad. They had never been in so much trouble. They dropped their toys and ran to their room. They cried.
+
+The mail carrier took back his mail and his toys. He put them in his bag. He closed the door. He got in his truck. He drove away.
+
+He never came back.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big plane in the sky. It was white and shiny and made a loud noise.
+
+"Wow, look at the plane!" Lily said. "It is so big and fast. I wonder where it is going."
+
+"I want to go on a plane," Sam said. "I want to see new places and people. Maybe the plane is going to a jungle or a castle or a mountain."
+
+Lily and Sam ran after the plane. They wanted to see it better. But the plane was too high and too far. They could not catch it.
+
+"Stop, stop!" a voice said. It was Lily's mom. She was sitting on a bench with a book. "You can't run out of the park. It is not safe. There are cars and buses and people. You have to stay here with me."
+
+"But mom, we want to see the plane!" Lily said. "It is so cool and fun. We wonder what it is like to fly."
+
+"I know, sweetie, but you can't follow the plane. It is too dangerous. Maybe one day we can go on a plane together. But for now, you have to play in the park. There are many things to do here. You can swing and climb and draw. You can use your imagination and pretend you are on a plane."
+
+Lily and Sam looked at each other. They were sad and angry. They wanted to see the plane. They wanted to fly. But they also loved their mom. She was kind and smart and strong. She always took care of them and made them happy.
+
+"Okay, mom," they said. "We will play in the park. But can we still look at the plane?"
+
+"Of course, you can," their mom said. "You can look at the plane and wonder. Wondering is good. It makes you curious and creative and brave. Maybe one day your wonder will take you to the plane. But for now, let's enjoy the park."
+
+Lily and Sam hugged their mom. They were still curious about the plane. But they were also happy to play in the park. They had fun and learned new things. They wondered and dreamed and smiled.
+Lily was a little bunny who loved to hop and play in the meadow. She liked to find sticks and make them into toys. One day, she found a big stick that looked like a sword. She picked it up and pretended to be a brave knight.
+
+She hopped around the meadow, waving her stick and saying, "I am Lily the knight! I can fight any dragon or giant!" She felt very happy and strong.
+
+But then, she saw a big shadow over her. She looked up and saw a hawk flying in the sky. The hawk had sharp eyes and claws, and it wanted to catch Lily for its lunch. Lily was scared and dropped her stick. She tried to run away, but the hawk was faster. It swooped down and grabbed Lily with its claws.
+
+Lily felt helpless and hurt. She cried out, "Help! Help! Someone, please help me!" She wished she had her stick to fight the hawk, but it was too late.
+
+But then, she heard a loud bark. It was Rex, the farm dog. He heard Lily's cry and ran to the meadow. He saw the hawk and Lily and got angry. He jumped and bit the hawk's tail. The hawk let go of Lily and flew away, screeching.
+
+Lily fell to the ground, but Rex caught her gently. He licked her face and said, "Don't worry, Lily. I am here. You are safe now."
+
+Lily was so happy and grateful. She hugged Rex and said, "Thank you, Rex. You are my hero. You saved me from the hawk."
+
+Rex smiled and said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are my friend. I will always protect you."
+
+They walked back to the farm, holding each other. Lily picked up her stick and said, "This is for you, Rex. You can have it as a gift. It is a sword, like mine."
+
+Rex took the stick and said, "Thank you, Lily. It is a nice stick. It is a sword, like yours."
+
+They played with their sticks and pretended to be knights. They felt very happy and strong. They were not helpless anymore. They had each other.

+"Look, my boat is faster than yours!" Ben said. He made his boat zoom past Lily's boat.
+
+"No, my boat is faster!" Lily said. She tried to catch up with Ben's boat, but he moved it away.
+
+"Let's have a race!" Ben said. He pointed to the other end of the tub. "The first one to reach there wins!"
+
+"Okay!" Lily said. She liked races. She moved her boat to the starting line.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Ben said. He pushed his boat as hard as he could. Lily did the same.
+
+The boats sailed across the water. They were very close to each other. Lily and Ben cheered for their boats.
+
+"Come on, red boat!" Lily said.
+
+"Go, go, blue boat!" Ben said.
+
+But then, something happened. Ben's boat hit a bubble and flipped over. It sank in the water.

+"Oh no!" Ben said. He looked sad. He reached for his boat, but it was too deep.
+
+Lily saw what happened. She felt sorry for Ben. She had an idea. She stopped her boat and turned it around. She sailed it back to Ben.
+
+"Here, you can have my boat," Lily said. She offered her red boat to Ben.
+
+"But you won the race," Ben said. He looked surprised.
+
+"That's okay," Lily said. "I want you to be happy. You can play with my boat."

+
+"Look, I made soup!" Tom said, holding a dish with water and some carrots. "Do you want some?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily said, nodding her head. She took a spoon and tried the soup. "Mmm, yummy!"
+
+Tom smiled and gave her another dish. "Here, this is cake. It has chocolate and sprinkles."
+
+Lily's eyes lit up. She loved cake. She took the dish and thanked Tom. She was about to take a bite when she heard a loud noise.
+
+CRASH!
+
+They both turned and saw that their dog, Spot, had knocked over a stack of dishes on the floor. The dishes were broken and there were pieces everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom and Lily said together. They knew Mom and Dad would be angry.
+
+They ran to the mess and tried to pick up the pieces. But they were too sharp and they hurt their fingers.
+
+"Ow!" Tom and Lily said, dropping the pieces.
+
+Spot barked and wagged his tail. He thought they were playing.
+
+"Spot, bad dog!" Tom and Lily said, scolding him.
+
+They heard footsteps and saw Mom and Dad coming. They looked at the broken dishes and at Tom and Lily.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked, frowning.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They didn't know what to say. They felt sorry and scared.
+
+They pointed at Spot and said, "He did it!"
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they would stop and look at the birds and the flowers. They were having fun.

+Then they saw a big van on the street. It was white and had a picture of a cake on the side. They wondered what was inside the van. Maybe it had lots of cakes and cookies. They wanted to see.
+
+They ran to the van and knocked on the door. A man opened the door and smiled. He was wearing a hat and an apron. He said, "Hello, kids. Do you like cakes?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Lily and Ben said.
+
+"Well, you are in luck. I have some extra cakes that I can give you. But you have to do something for me first. You have to kneel down and close your eyes. Then I will give you a surprise."
+
+Lily and Ben thought that was a strange thing to ask. But they wanted the cakes. So they did what the man said. They knelt down and closed their eyes.
+
+But the man was not nice. He was not an ordinary cake man. He was a bad man. He wanted to take Lily and Ben away. He grabbed them and tried to put them in the van.
+
+But Lily and Ben were not stupid. They felt the man's hands and opened their eyes. They screamed and kicked and bit the man. They made a lot of noise.
+
+Some people heard them and came to help. They saw the bad man and the van. They called the police. The police came and arrested the bad man. They saved Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared and sad. They hugged each other and cried. They did not want any cakes anymore. They wanted their mom and dad.
+
+The police called their mom and dad and told them what happened. They came to the park and hugged Lily and Ben. They were very happy and proud of them. They said, "You are very brave and smart. You did the right thing. You should never go with strangers. Even if they have cakes."

+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "We know. We are sorry. We love you."
+
+They went home with their mom and dad. They had some milk and cookies. They played with their ball. They forgot about the van and the bad man. They were safe and happy.
+Tom and Lily were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They had a big bucket and a small spray bottle. They filled the bucket with water and the spray bottle with sand.
+
+"Let's make a shark!" Tom said. He dumped some water on the sand and shaped it into a long fish with a big mouth and a fin. Lily helped him make the eyes and the teeth.
+
+"Wow, it looks like a real shark!" Lily said. She picked up the spray bottle and pretended to spray water on the shark. "Shh, don't wake him up!"
+
+But the shark was not asleep. It was a wild shark that had come out of the sea. It saw Tom and Lily and their spray bottle and got angry. It opened its mouth and roared.
+
+"Help, help!" Tom and Lily screamed. They dropped the spray bottle and ran to their mom and dad. The wild shark chased them, but it could not run on the sand. It got stuck and wiggled.
+
+Mom and dad heard their children and came to see what was wrong. They saw the wild shark and the spray bottle. They were scared, but they were also brave. They grabbed the spray bottle and sprayed sand on the shark's eyes. The shark could not see and stopped roaring.
+
+"Go away, you bad shark!" Mom said. She and dad kicked the shark back into the water. The shark swam away, feeling sorry for itself.
+
+Tom and Lily hugged their mom and dad. They were glad they were safe. They decided not to make any more sharks with sand and water. They played with their bucket and their spray bottle, but only with nice things.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were explorers, looking for animals and plants. Sara had a magnifying glass and Ben had a net.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a big ant!" Sara said, holding the magnifying glass over a black ant on a leaf.
+
+"Wow, that's cool, Sara. Can I see?" Ben asked, running over to her.
+
+"Sure, here you go. But be careful, don't touch it. It might bite you." Sara warned, handing him the magnifying glass.
+
+Ben looked at the ant closely. He saw its tiny legs, its shiny body, and its long antennae. He was amazed by how much he could see with the magnifying glass.
+
+"Thanks, Sara. You're a reliable friend. You always share your things with me." Ben said, smiling at her.
+
+"You're welcome, Ben. You're a reliable friend too. You always help me when I need it." Sara said, smiling back.
+
+They hugged and continued their exploration. They saw a butterfly, a spider, a snail, and a worm. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard a buzzing sound. It was a mosquito. It flew around their heads, looking for a place to land and bite.
+
+"Ouch, it bit me!" Sara cried, rubbing her arm.
+
+"Me too, it bit me!" Ben yelled, scratching his leg.
+
+They ran away from the mosquito, but it followed them. They tried to swat it, but it was too fast. They tried to hide, but it found them. They were scared and angry.
+
+"How can we get rid of it?" Sara asked, holding Ben's hand.
+
+"I have an idea. Let's use my net." Ben said, grabbing his net.
+
+He waited for the mosquito to come close, then he swung his net at it. He missed the first time, but he tried again. He succeeded. He caught the mosquito in his net.
+
+"Yay, you did it, Ben! You caught the mosquito!" Sara cheered, clapping her hands.
+
+"Yay, I did it, Sara! I caught the mosquito!" Ben repeated, holding up his net.
+
+They looked at the mosquito in the net. It was still buzzing, but it couldn't bite them anymore. They felt proud and happy.
+
+They decided to let the mosquito go, but far away from their garden. They didn't want it to bother them again.
+
+They walked to the fence and threw the net over it. They watched the mosquito fly away.
+
+"Bye, bye, mosquito. Don't come back!" Sara said, waving her hand.
+
+"Bye, bye, mosquito. Don't come back!" Ben said, waving his hand too.
+
+They laughed and hugged. They were brave explorers. They had a great adventure. They were reliable friends.

+
+Sam feels sad and angry. He says, "That is not nice. We are friends. We should share our toys. Sharing is fun and kind."

+Ben does not listen. He hugs his new train and says, "This is mine. Go find something else to play with."
+
+Sam goes to the other side of the room. He sees a big box. He has an idea. He takes some scissors and some tape and some paper. He cuts and sticks and draws. He makes his own train. It is blue and green and has a funny face. He puts some wheels on it and makes it move. He is very creative.

+
+Sam says, "No, this is my train. You have your own train. Go away."
+
+Ben feels sad and angry. He says, "That is not fair. You did not let me play with your new train. Why should I let you play with mine?"
+
+Sam says, "You are right. I was not fair. I was selfish. I am sorry. Do you want to play with my train?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, I do. And I am sorry, too. Do you want to play with my new train?"

+
+One day, the weather is bad. It is rainy and windy. Tim and Sam are sad. They cannot ride their bikes in the park. They look out the window and see the rain.
+
+"Can we ride our bikes inside?" Tim asks Sam.
+
+"No, we cannot. Mommy says it is not safe. We can hurt ourselves or break something." Sam says.
+
+"Then what can we do?" Tim says.
+
+They think for a while. They see an elderly lady walking on the street. She has a big umbrella and a small dog. The dog is wet and shivering. The lady is smiling and talking to the dog.
+
+"Look, she is happy. She does not mind the weather. She loves her dog." Sam says.

+Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with many vines hanging from it. Sara wanted to swing on the vines like a monkey.
+
+"Look, Tom, let's swing on the vines!" Sara said.
+
+"No, Sara, that is too dangerous. We might fall and hurt ourselves. And Mommy said not to go near the tree. It is not ours," Tom said.
+
+Sara did not listen to Tom. She was selfish and wanted to have fun. She ran to the tree and grabbed a vine. She pulled it hard and swung in the air.
+
+"Yay, this is so fun! Come on, Tom, don't be scared. I dare you to swing with me!" Sara shouted.
+
+Tom was scared, but he did not want to look like a baby. He followed Sara and took another vine. He tried to swing like Sara, but he was not strong enough. The vine broke and Tom fell to the ground. He cried out loud and his knee was bleeding.
+
+Sara stopped swinging and ran to Tom. She saw that he was hurt and felt sorry. She hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Tom, I was selfish and stupid. I should have listened to you. Are you okay?"
+
+Tom was still crying, but he hugged Sara back. He said, "It's okay, Sara, I forgive you. But let's not swing on the vines again. It is too dangerous and not ours. Let's go find Mommy and get a band-aid."
+
+Sara and Tom walked to their Mommy, who was sitting on a bench. She saw that Tom was hurt and Sara was sad. She asked them what happened and they told her the truth. She was angry, but also glad that they were honest. She gave them a band-aid and a hug. She said, "I love you, Sara and Tom, but you have to be careful and respectful. The tree and the vines belong to someone else. You could have hurt yourselves or damaged the tree. Next time, don't be selfish and don't dare each other to do something bad. Okay?"
+
+Sara and Tom nodded and said, "Okay, Mommy, we're sorry. We love you too."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "Let's go home and have some cookies. And maybe we can read a book about monkeys and vines. How does that sound?"
+
+Sara and Tom smiled and said, "That sounds great, Mommy. Thank you."
+
+They held Mommy's hand and walked home. They learned their lesson and never swung on the vines again.
+Tom and Lily were going to the station with Mom and Dad. They wanted to see the big trains and hear them go choo-choo. They were very excited and happy.
+
+But when they got to the station, they saw a fierce dog. It was big and black and had sharp teeth. It barked loud and ran towards them. Tom and Lily were scared and hid behind Mom and Dad.
+
+The dog's owner came and called the dog. He said he was sorry and that the dog was friendly. He said the dog just wanted to play. But Tom and Lily did not want to play with the dog. They wanted to go away.
+
+Mom and Dad said it was okay and that they could go see the trains. They thanked the dog's owner and walked to the platform. But Tom and Lily were still scared and held Mom and Dad's hands tight.
+
+As they walked, they saw a man with a funny hat and a big red nose. He was making jokes and making people laugh. He saw Tom and Lily and smiled. He said hello and asked them their names. He gave them a balloon and a sticker. He said he was a clown and that he worked at the station.
+
+Tom and Lily liked the clown. He was funny and nice. They forgot about the dog and smiled. They said thank you and told him their names. They laughed at his jokes and played with the balloon and the sticker.
+
+Mom and Dad were happy to see Tom and Lily happy. They said the clown was very kind and that he made their day. They said they were proud of Tom and Lily for being brave and polite.
+
+Tom and Lily were proud too. They said they liked the station and the clown. They said they were not scared of the dog anymore. They said they were not embarrassed either. They said they had fun.
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. They had a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. One day, they saw a big post with a sign on it. The sign had many colors and pictures, but they could not read the words.
+
+"What is that?" Anna asked.
+
+"I don't know. Let's go and see," Ben said.
+
+They ran to the post and stared at the sign. It looked very interesting and exciting. They wanted to touch it and see what it was.
+
+"Maybe it is a game," Anna said.
+
+"Maybe it is a prize," Ben said.
+
+They reached out their hands to touch the sign. But they did not know that the sign was a trap. It was a trap for bad people who wanted to steal things from the park. The sign had a button that made a loud noise and a light that flashed. When Anna and Ben touched the sign, the button pressed and the noise and the light scared them. They screamed and cried.
+
+A man came running to the post. He was a park ranger. He saw Anna and Ben and was angry.
+
+"What are you doing here? You are not supposed to touch this sign. It is a trap for thieves. You are very naughty and foolish," he said.
+
+He took them by the hand and brought them to their parents. Their parents were also angry and sad. They scolded them and took them home. They did not let them play in the park for a long time.
+
+Anna and Ben learned a lesson. They learned that they should not touch things that they do not know. They learned that they should be modest and careful. They learned that curiosity can be dangerous. They wished they had not stared at the sign.
+Tim and Jen were playing in the park with their dog Spot. They liked to run and chase and throw the ball for Spot. But then it started to rain. Big drops of water fell from the sky and made them wet and cold.
+
+"Let's go to the shelter!" Tim said. He pointed to a small house near the trees. It looked old and empty. "Maybe we can stay there until the rain stops."
+
+Jen nodded and followed Tim. Spot ran after them. They ran to the shelter and opened the door. It was dark and dirty inside. There were spider webs and broken things on the floor. They did not like it, but they did not want to go back to the rain.
+
+They sat on a corner and hugged Spot. They hoped their mom and dad would come soon. They did not know that the shelter was not safe. They did not see the sign that said "Danger! Keep out!"
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It sounded like a big boom. They looked up and saw smoke and fire. The shelter was on fire! Someone had left a candle or a match and it had started the fire. They were scared and did not know what to do.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tim yelled. He tried to open the door, but it was stuck. The fire was getting bigger and hotter. It was hard to breathe. "Help! Help!"
+
+Jen yelled too. She was crying and holding Spot. She wished they had never gone to the shelter. She wished they had stayed in the rain. She felt guilty for following Tim. She felt guilty for leaving their mom and dad. She felt guilty for being in trouble.
+
+But no one heard them. No one came to help them. The fire burned the shelter and everything in it. Tim and Jen and Spot did not get out. They did not see their mom and dad again. They did not play in the park again. They did not have a happy ending.
+One day, a fairy named Lily was flying in the garden. She saw a big apple on a tree and wanted to eat it. She flew to the apple and took a bite. But the apple was bad. It was brown and soft and had worms inside. Lily spit out the apple and felt sick.
+
+"Yuck! This apple is rot!" she said. "Who left it here?"
+
+She looked around and saw another fairy, Tom, sitting on a branch. He was holding a good apple and smiling.
+
+"Hi, Lily!" he said. "Do you like my apple?"
+
+Lily was angry. She flew to Tom and said, "You are mean! You knew this apple was rot and you left it for me! You are a careless fairy!"
+
+Tom shrugged. He said, "I don't care. I found two apples and I wanted the best one. You should have looked before you ate."
+
+Lily felt hurt. She said, "That is not fair. You should share and be kind. You are a bad friend."
+
+She flew away and looked for another apple. She found one that was red and shiny and smelled good. She was happy and took a bite. But the apple was sour. It made her face twist and her eyes water. Lily spit out the apple and felt sad.
+
+"Ow! This apple is sour!" she said. "Why are all the apples bad?"
+
+She looked around and saw another fairy, Mia, flying towards her. She was holding a basket full of good apples and smiling.
+
+"Hi, Lily!" she said. "Do you want an apple?"
+
+Lily was surprised. She said, "Yes, please. But why are you giving me an apple? I don't have anything to give you back."
+
+Mia said, "That's okay. I have enough apples for everyone. I picked them from a nice tree that has sweet and juicy apples. You can have one."
+
+She gave Lily an apple and said, "Here you go. Enjoy!"
+
+Lily took the apple and thanked Mia. She bit into the apple and it was delicious. She felt happy and smiled.
+
+"Mmm! This apple is good!" she said. "Thank you, Mia. You are a good fairy!"
+
+Mia said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you like it. You are a good friend."
+
+They flew together and shared the apples with other fairies. They had fun and laughed.
+
+Lily learned a lesson. She learned that being careless and mean can make you sick and sad. She learned that being kind and generous can make you healthy and happy. She learned that good apples come from good trees and good friends come from good hearts.
+Lily liked to read. She liked to look at books with pictures and words. She liked to hear stories from her mom and dad. She liked to learn new things.
+
+One day, Lily got a letter in the mail. It was from her grandma. Her grandma lived far away, in a distant place. Lily missed her grandma. She wanted to see her and hug her.
+
+Lily opened the letter with her mom. The letter had a picture of her grandma and her dog. The letter also had words. Lily asked her mom to read the words to her.
+
+Her mom read the words. The words said: "Dear Lily, I love you very much. I hope you are happy and healthy. I miss you and I can't wait to see you soon. You are a smart and sweet girl. Keep reading and learning. Love, Grandma."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt happy and warm. She loved her grandma too. She said to her mom: "Can we write a letter back to grandma? I want to tell her I love her and I miss her and I read a lot of books."
+
+Her mom said: "Of course we can. That's a great idea. Let's go get some paper and crayons and write a letter to grandma. Maybe we can also draw a picture of us and our cat."
+
+Lily and her mom went to write a letter to grandma. They had fun writing and drawing. They put the letter in an envelope and stuck a stamp on it. They walked to the mailbox and sent the letter to grandma. Lily hoped grandma would get the letter soon and feel happy too.
+Lily and Ben are friends, but they like different things. Lily likes to play with dolls and make them pretty. Ben likes to play with cars and make them fast. One day, they have a big fight.
+
+"Give me that doll!" Ben says. He tries to take Lily's doll from her hands.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily says. She holds the doll tight and pulls Ben's hair.
+
+"Ow, that hurts!" Ben says. He lets go of the doll and pushes Lily.
+
+Lily falls on the ground and cries. "You are rough and mean!" she says.
+
+A teacher hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees Lily's doll and Ben's car on the floor.
+
+"What is going on here?" she asks. "Why are you fighting?"
+
+"Lily won't let me play with her doll!" Ben says.
+
+"Ben won't let me play with my doll!" Lily says.
+
+The teacher picks up the doll and the car and looks at them. "These are both nice toys, but they are not for sharing. Lily, this is your doll and you can play with it as you like. Ben, this is your car and you can play with it as you like. But you can't take each other's toys or hurt each other. That is not nice. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They are sorry for fighting.
+
+"Can you say sorry to each other?" the teacher asks.
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They feel shy.
+
+"Sorry, Lily," Ben says.
+
+"Sorry, Ben," Lily says.
+
+They hug and smile. They are friends again.
+
+The teacher gives them back their toys and says, "Good. Now, why don't you play together nicely? Maybe you can show each other how you play with your toys. Or maybe you can find something else that you both like to play with. There are many fun things to do here."
+
+Lily and Ben agree. They decide to play with the blocks and build a house. They have fun and don't fight anymore.
+Lila and Tom are twins. They like to play together. They have many toys in their room. But today they are sick. They have a cold. They cough and sneeze.
+
+Mom comes in with a tray. On the tray there are two cups of juice and two pills. Mom says, "You need to take these pills. They will make you feel better. You can choose which one you want. One is red and one is blue."
+
+Lila and Tom look at the pills. They do not like pills. They are bitter and hard. They make faces. They do not want to choose.
+
+Mom says, "Come on, it will be quick. Then you can have some juice. And maybe later you can play a little. But you need to rest now."
+
+Lila and Tom think. They want to be playful again. They do not want to be sick. They decide to be brave. Lila says, "I will take the red one." Tom says, "I will take the blue one." They take the pills and swallow them. They drink the juice. It is sweet and cold.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "Good job, my darlings. You are very smart and strong. I love you very much. Now lie down and close your eyes. I will read you a story."
+
+Lila and Tom lie down and close their eyes. They listen to Mom's voice. She reads them a story about a princess and a dragon. They feel warm and cozy. They hope they will be playful again soon.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with many green leaves. Under the tree, they found some brown balls with hats. Ben picked one up and said, "Look, Lily, this is an acorn. The squirrels like to eat them."
+
+Lily took the acorn from Ben and looked at it. She said, "It is very small and hard. How can the squirrels eat it?"
+
+Ben said, "They have sharp teeth and they can crack it open. Inside, there is a seed that is soft and yummy. The squirrels save the acorns for winter, when there is no food."
+
+Lily said, "Wow, the squirrels are very smart. They think about the future. They are like wealthy people who have a lot of money and can buy anything they want."
+
+Ben said, "But money is not the same as acorns. Money is paper and metal. You cannot eat it or plant it. And money can make people greedy and mean. Acorns are natural and good. They can make people happy and healthy."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "You are right, Ben. Acorns are better than money. Let's give some to the squirrels and make them happy too."
+
+They put some acorns in a pile near the tree and watched the squirrels come and take them. They smiled and felt happy too. They learned that sharing is better than having.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play together at school. Today, they have a quiz. The quiz is about animals. Sara and Tom know many animals. They are not scared of the quiz.
+
+Before the quiz, Sara and Tom go to the bathroom. Sara wears a dress with a ribbon. Tom wears a shirt with a tie. Sara helps Tom to tie his tie. She says, "You look nice, Tom. Your tie is blue. Blue is my favorite color."
+
+Tom says, "Thank you, Sara. You look nice, too. Your ribbon is pink. Pink is your favorite color. Do you like my tie?"
+
+Sara says, "Yes, I like your tie. It is not heavy. It is light. Some ties are heavy. They make your neck hurt. Your tie is good."
+
+Tom says, "I am happy you like my tie. It is a gift from my dad. He gave it to me for my birthday. He said it is a lucky tie. It will help me do well on the quiz."
+
+Sara says, "That is nice of your dad. I think you will do well on the quiz. You are smart. You know many animals. I know many animals, too. We can help each other on the quiz."
+
+Tom says, "Yes, we can. We are a good team. We are ready for the quiz. Let's go back to the classroom."
+
+Sara and Tom hold hands and go back to the classroom. They sit next to each other and wait for the quiz. They are not scared. They are happy. They have a lucky tie and a pink ribbon. They have each other. They like the quiz.
+Ben likes to lead his friends when they play. He tells them what to do and where to go. He thinks he is the best at everything. But his friends do not always like it. They want to have fun and try new things.
+
+One day, Ben and his friends go to the park. Ben sees a big slide and says, "Let's go to the slide. I will show you how to slide fast and easy." He runs to the slide and climbs up. He slides down and says, "See? That was fun. Now you do it."
+
+But his friends do not want to go to the slide. They see a sandbox and say, "Let's go to the sandbox. We can make castles and dig holes." They run to the sandbox and start to play. They have fun and try new things.
+
+Ben feels angry and lonely. He does not like the sandbox. He thinks it is boring and dirty. He says, "Come on, the slide is better. The sandbox is for babies. You are silly and wrong." He tries to lead his friends to the slide. But his friends do not listen. They say, "No, the sandbox is fun. The slide is too scary and high. You are bossy and mean."
+
+Ben does not understand. He thinks he is the best and he knows everything. He does not want to play with his friends anymore. He goes to the slide and slides alone. He feels sad and sorry.
+
+Then he sees a girl on the swing. She is smiling and swinging high. She looks happy and friendly. Ben wants to swing too. He goes to the swing and says, "Hi, can I swing with you?" The girl says, "Sure, I will teach you how to swing. It is easy and fun."
+
+The girl teaches Ben how to swing. She tells him to hold on tight and push with his legs. She tells him to lean back and forth and feel the wind. She tells him to laugh and enjoy. Ben listens and learns. He swings high and feels happy. He says, "Thank you for teaching me how to swing. It is fun and easy."
+
+The girl says, "You are welcome. I like to teach and share. It is fun and nice." She says, "Do you want to play with me and my friends? We are going to the seesaw and the merry-go-round. They are fun and easy too."
+
+Ben says, "Yes, I want to play with you and your friends. They sound fun and nice too." He says, "I am sorry for being bossy and mean. I want to learn and try new things. I want to have fun and be friendly."
+
+The girl says, "That's okay. I forgive you. I know it is difficult to change. But you can do it. I will help you. Come on, let's go and play." She takes his hand and leads him to her friends. They welcome him and play together. They have fun and try new things. Ben feels happy and sorry. He learns to lead and follow. He learns to teach and learn. He learns to be fun and friendly.
+One day, a little boy named Max was playing with his toy pirate ship in his room. He liked to pretend that he was a brave pirate captain who sailed the seas and found treasure. He wore a hat, a hook and an eye patch to look like a pirate.
+
+He was having fun making noises and moving his ship around, when he heard a knock on his door. He said, "Who is it?"
+
+"It's me, your sister Lily," a voice said. "Can I play with you?"
+
+Max opened the door and saw his sister holding a stuffed animal. It was a pink bunny with a bow and a smile. Max thought it was adorable, but not very pirate-like.
+
+"Hi, Lily," he said. "What do you have there?"
+
+"It's my bunny, Fluffy," she said. "She wants to play with you and your ship. Can she?"
+
+Max looked at his ship and his sister. He liked Lily, but he wasn't sure if she would like his pirate game. He said, "I don't know, Lily. Pirates are not very nice to bunnies. They might scare her or take her away."
+
+Lily frowned and hugged her bunny. She said, "But Fluffy is not afraid of pirates. She is very brave and smart. She can help you find treasure and fight bad guys. Please, Max, let her play with you."
+
+Max thought for a moment. He didn't want to make his sister sad, and he was curious to see what would happen if he let her bunny join his game. He said, "Okay, Lily. Fluffy can play with me and my ship. But you have to follow my rules. I'm the captain, and you're my crew."
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She said, "Thank you, Max. You're the best brother ever. Come on, Fluffy, let's go on an adventure with Max and his ship."
+
+They went to Max's room and played together. They pretended that they sailed to a secret island, where they found a chest full of gold and jewels. They also met a friendly parrot, who taught them some pirate words. They had a lot of fun and laughed a lot.
+
+Max was glad that he let his sister and her bunny play with him. He realized that pirates and bunnies could be friends, and that playing with Lily was more fun than playing alone. He gave her a hug and said, "You know what, Lily? You and Fluffy are adorable pirates. I love you."
+
+Lily hugged him back and said, "I love you too, Max. You're a great pirate captain. Can we play again tomorrow?"
+
+Max nodded and said, "Yes, we can. But now, it's time for bed. Let's go and say good night to Mom and Dad."
+
+They put away their toys and went to their parents. They told them about their pirate game and how much they enjoyed it. Mom and Dad smiled and kissed them good night. They tucked them in their beds and turned off the lights.
+
+Max and Lily closed their eyes and dreamed of pirates and bunnies and treasure. They were happy and cozy and safe. They were the best siblings ever. The end.
+Lily and her uncle went to the park. They liked to play hide and seek. Lily counted to ten and then she searched for her uncle. She looked behind the trees, under the benches, and in the bushes. But she could not find him.
+
+"Where are you, uncle?" Lily shouted. She heard a giggle from the slide. She ran to the slide and saw her uncle's orange hat. She climbed up the ladder and found her uncle hiding at the top. She hugged him and said, "I found you!"
+
+"You are very good at searching, Lily," her uncle said. "But can you hide from me?" He put his hat on her head and said, "Now it's my turn to count. You go and hide."
+
+Lily nodded and ran away. She looked for a good hiding spot. She saw a big pile of leaves. She thought it was a good idea to hide under the leaves. She jumped into the pile and covered herself with the leaves. She hoped her uncle would not see her.
+
+Her uncle finished counting and started to search for Lily. He looked behind the trees, under the benches, and in the bushes. But he could not find her. He scratched his head and said, "Where are you, Lily?" He heard a rustle from the pile of leaves. He walked to the pile and saw a little bit of orange. He smiled and said, "I found you!"
+
+He moved the leaves and saw Lily's face. She giggled and said, "You are very good at searching, too, uncle." They hugged and said, "We love playing hide and seek." They decided to play again and again. They had a lot of fun at the park.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big red truck. The truck has a hose and a ladder. It is a fire truck.
+
+"Wow, look at the fire truck!" Lily says. "It is so big and red!"
+
+"I want to see the fire truck!" Ben says. "Can we go closer?"
+
+They run to the fire truck. A fireman is there. He smiles at them.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you like the fire truck?" he asks.
+
+"Yes, we do!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+"Do you want to see the hose?" he asks.
+
+"Yes, please!" they say.
+
+The fireman shows them the hose. He tells them how it works. He says the hose can spray water very far and fast. He says the water is good for putting out fires.
+
+"Can we try the hose?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sorry, no. The hose is very strong. It can hurt you or make you wet. You have to be careful with the hose," the fireman says.
+
+"Oh, okay," Ben says. He is a little sad.
+
+The fireman sees that Ben is sad. He thinks of something. He goes to the truck and comes back with a small toy. It is a fire truck. It has a hose and a ladder, too. But it is not big and red. It is small and yellow.
+
+"Here, this is for you," the fireman says. He gives the toy to Ben.
+
+"Wow, thank you!" Ben says. He is very happy. He hugs the toy.
+
+"You're welcome. Be a good fireman and take care of your truck," the fireman says.
+
+"I will, I will!" Ben says.
+
+Lily is happy, too. She likes the toy. She asks the fireman if he has another one.
+
+"Sorry, no. I only have one. But you can share with Ben. Sharing is good," the fireman says.
+
+"Okay, I will share with Ben. Ben, can I play with your truck, too?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, Lily. You can play with my truck. We can take turns," Ben says.
+
+They play with the toy truck. They pretend to put out fires. They have fun.
+
+The fireman watches them. He is happy, too. He likes to see kids happy. He likes to give them toys. He likes to be a fireman.
+Sara loves her pet cat, Mimi. She cares for Mimi every day. She gives her food and water, and brushes her fur. She plays with Mimi and cuddles her. Mimi is happy and purrs.
+
+One day, Sara's mom says they have to go to grandma's house. Grandma lives far away, in a distant place. Sara has to pack her things and get in the car. She is sad to leave Mimi.
+
+"Can Mimi come with us?" Sara asks.
+
+"No, sweetie, Mimi has to stay here. Grandma is allergic to cats. She sneezes and gets red eyes when she sees them. We will be back soon, don't worry." Mom says.
+
+Sara hugs Mimi and says goodbye. She tells Mimi to be good and wait for her. She puts Mimi's favorite toy and blanket in her bed. She hopes Mimi will not be lonely.
+
+Sara and mom drive for a long time. Sara looks out the window and sees different things. She sees trees and hills and cows and birds. She wonders what Mimi is doing. She misses Mimi.
+
+When they get to grandma's house, Sara is happy to see grandma. Grandma is nice and gives her cookies and milk. She shows Sara her room and her toys. Sara plays with grandma and has fun. But she still thinks about Mimi.
+
+At night, Sara calls mom and asks about Mimi.
+
+"Mimi is fine, honey. She is sleeping in her bed. She misses you too. But she is not alone. Mrs. Lee, our neighbor, comes to check on her and give her treats. She is a good friend to Mimi." Mom says.
+
+Sara feels better. She knows Mimi is safe and cared for. She says good night to mom and Mimi. She dreams of Mimi and looks forward to seeing her again. She loves her pet cat, Mimi.
+Lily liked to play outside with her dog, Spot. They ran and jumped and rolled in the grass. They had a lot of fun, but they also got very dirty. Lily's mom saw them and said, "Lily, Spot, come inside. It's time for a bath."
+
+Lily and Spot did not want to stop playing. They tried to hide behind a tree, but Lily's mom found them. She smiled and said, "You can play more later, but now you need to get clean. Come on, let's go to the bathtub."
+
+Lily and Spot followed Lily's mom to the bathroom. She filled the bathtub with warm water and bubbles. She helped Lily take off her clothes and get in the bathtub. She gave her a rubber duck and a sponge. Lily splashed and giggled. She washed her hair and her face and her arms and her legs. She felt good and clean.
+
+Lily's mom said, "Now it's Spot's turn." She lifted Spot and put him in the bathtub. Spot did not like the water. He barked and shook and tried to get out. Lily's mom said, "It's okay, Spot. It won't hurt. You'll be clean and shiny." She rubbed shampoo on Spot's fur and rinsed it off. She gave him a towel and dried him. Spot felt better and clean.
+
+Lily and Spot got out of the bathtub. They put on their clothes and their collar. They looked at each other and smiled. They were happy and clean. Lily's mom said, "You did a great job, Lily and Spot. You are very good and clean. Now you can go and play some more." Lily and Spot thanked Lily's mom and ran outside. They played and jumped and rolled in the grass. They had a lot of fun, but they also got dirty again.
+Tom and Lily like to jog with their dad. They jog in the park, where there are many trees and flowers. They see a big structure with slides and swings. It is a playground.
+
+"Can we play there, dad?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, but only for a little while. We have to jog back home soon," dad says.
+
+Tom and Lily run to the structure. They climb, slide and swing. They have fun. They see a boy with a book. He is sitting on a bench. He is not playing.
+
+"Hi, what are you reading?" Lily asks.
+
+"I'm reading a book about dinosaurs. They are very smart and strong," the boy says.
+
+"Wow, that sounds interesting. Can you tell us more?" Tom asks.
+
+The boy smiles. He tells them about different kinds of dinosaurs. He shows them pictures. Tom and Lily listen. They learn new things.
+
+"You are very smart, too," Lily says.
+
+"Thank you. You are very nice," the boy says.
+
+They become friends. They play together. They share their books. Dad watches them. He is happy. He thinks they are all smart and kind. He joins them. He tells them stories. They laugh. They jog back home. They have a good day.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with paper. They cut paper, fold paper, and draw on paper. They make paper hats, paper planes, and paper animals. Paper is fun.
+
+One day, they play with paper in the park. They find a big tree with a hole. They put their paper things in the hole. They say, "This is our secret place. No one can see our paper things."
+
+But a big dog sees them. The dog is hungry. He smells the paper. He thinks the paper is food. He runs to the tree. He barks and tries to get the paper.
+
+Tom and Anna are scared. They love their paper things. They do not want the dog to eat them. They say, "Go away, dog! Leave our paper things alone!"
+
+They pick up sticks and stones. They throw them at the dog. They try to protect their paper things. The dog is angry. He growls and snaps.
+
+But then, a funny thing happens. A bird flies out of the hole. The bird is loud. He squawks and pecks. He scares the dog. The dog runs away. He does not want the bird to hurt him.
+
+Tom and Anna are happy. They thank the bird. They say, "You are a good bird. You helped us protect our paper things."

+Ben was a big dog who loved to eat steak. He always waited for his owner, Tom, to give him some steak from his plate. But one day, Tom did not come home for dinner. Ben was very hungry and worried. He looked around the house and saw a big steak on the table. It smelled so good. Ben thought, maybe Tom left it for him.
+
+Ben jumped on the table and grabbed the steak with his teeth. He ran to his bed and ate it all. It was the best steak he ever had. He felt very happy and full. He licked his lips and fell asleep.
+
+Later, Tom came home. He was very tired and hungry. He had worked late and bought a steak for himself. He went to the kitchen and saw the empty plate on the table. He was very angry and sad. He shouted, "Ben, where are you? What did you do with my steak?"
+
+Ben heard Tom's voice and woke up. He felt very ashamed. He knew he had done something bad. He hid under his bed and whimpered. He hoped Tom would not find him.
+
+Tom looked for Ben and saw him under the bed. He saw the bones and the crumbs on the floor. He understood what had happened. He sighed and said, "Ben, you are a naughty dog. You ate my steak without asking. That was not nice. You should be sorry."
+
+Ben crawled out from under the bed and looked at Tom with his big eyes. He wagged his tail and licked Tom's hand. He tried to say, "I am sorry, Tom. I was hungry and worried. I love you, Tom. Please forgive me."
+
+Tom looked at Ben and felt sorry for him. He knew Ben was hungry and worried. He loved Ben too. He said, "It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. But don't do it again. Next time, wait for me. I will share my steak with you."

+Ben barked and jumped on Tom. He was very happy and relieved. He thanked Tom and gave him a big hug. Tom hugged him back and smiled. He said, "You are a good dog, Ben. But you are also a greedy dog. Next time, I will buy two steaks. One for me and one for you."

+Mia opens one eye. She is not happy. She wants to sleep. She yawns and turns away.
+
+"Go away, Tom. I'm tired. It's dark. We need to sleep," Mia says.
+
+Tom does not listen. He taps her again. And again. And again. He thinks it is funny. Mia does not think it is funny. She is angry. She yells at Tom.
+
+"Stop it, Tom! You are mean! You are not my friend!" Mia says.
+
+Tom is sad. He did not mean to make Mia angry. He just wanted to have fun. He is sorry. He says sorry to Mia.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mia. I was bored. I love you. You are my friend," Tom says.

+Tim and Lily were friends who liked to play together. They lived in a big house with a garage. Their parents were wealthy and had many cars and toys. But they were not nice to Tim and Lily. They always shouted at them and told them to stay in their rooms.
+
+One day, Tim and Lily decided to run away. They packed some food and clothes in a backpack and sneaked out of the house. They went to the garage and found a bike. They rode the bike as fast as they could, away from the big house.
+
+They did not know where to go. They just wanted to find a place where they could be happy and free. They rode for a long time, until it was dark and cold. They saw a park with some trees and benches. They thought they could sleep there for the night.
+
+They parked the bike under a tree and took out their backpack. They ate some of the food and shared a blanket. They tried to sleep, but they were scared and lonely. They heard strange noises and saw shadows. They shivered and hugged each other.
+
+"Tim, I'm scared," Lily whispered.
+
+"Me too, Lily," Tim whispered back. "But don't worry, we'll be okay. We'll find a better place tomorrow."
+
+But they never did. In the middle of the night, a big truck came and smashed their bike. The driver did not see them under the tree. He got out of the truck and saw the backpack and the blanket. He thought they were trash and threw them in the back of the truck. He did not hear Tim and Lily scream. He drove away, taking them with him. They never saw their home or their parents again.
+Lily liked to chew on things. She chewed on her toys, her books, and her clothes. Sometimes she chewed on things that were not hers, like her mom's shoes or her dad's glasses. Her mom and dad were not happy when she did that. They told her to chew only on her own things.
+
+One day, Lily was playing in her room. She saw a drawer that was open. She was curious. She went to the drawer and looked inside. She saw some shiny things that looked like candy. She wanted to try them. She took one and put it in her mouth. She started to chew.
+
+"Ow!" she cried. The shiny thing was not candy. It was a button. It was hard and sharp. It hurt her teeth and her tongue. She spit it out and threw it away. She felt sad and scared.
+
+She heard her mom coming. She ran to her mom and hugged her. She told her what happened.
+
+"Oh, Lily, you should not chew on buttons. They are not for eating. They are for sewing. They are in the drawer because I am making a new shirt for you. It is a strong shirt. It will not tear or stain. Do you want to see it?" her mom said.
+
+Lily nodded. She was sorry for chewing on the button. She wanted to see the shirt. She followed her mom to the drawer. Her mom showed her the shirt. It was blue and had flowers on it. It had four buttons on the front. Lily liked it. She smiled.
+
+"Thank you, mom. It is a pretty shirt. I will not chew on the buttons. I will chew on my own things. Like this." She took out a carrot from her pocket and bit it. It was crunchy and sweet. She liked it.
+
+Her mom laughed. She hugged her. She said, "That's a good girl. Carrots are good for you. They make your teeth strong. And they do not hurt your mouth. You can chew on them as much as you want."
+Sam and Lily liked to play in the sand. They made castles and tunnels and bridges. They had a lot of fun.
+
+One day, they saw a big crab in the sand. It had long claws and shiny eyes. Sam wanted to catch it and put it in a bucket. Lily was scared of the crab. She said, "No, Sam, don't do that. The crab will be sad and hurt. We should care for it and let it go."
+
+But Sam did not listen. He ran after the crab and grabbed it with his hand. The crab was angry and scared. It pinched Sam's finger with its claw. Sam cried out in pain and dropped the crab. The crab ran away to the water.
+
+Lily ran to Sam and hugged him. She said, "I'm sorry, Sam. Are you okay?" Sam nodded, but his finger was red and swollen. It hurt a lot. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You were right. I should have cared for the crab and let it go. I was mean and silly."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "It's okay, Sam. You learned your lesson. Next time, we will be kind to the animals in the sand. They are our friends, not our toys." Sam smiled back and said, "Yes, Lily. You are my best friend. Can you hold my hand? It makes me feel better." Lily held his hand and said, "Of course, Sam. I will hold your hand tight. It makes me feel better, too." They walked back to their mom and dad, who gave them a hug and a band-aid. They still liked to play in the sand, but they never bothered the crabs again.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Tom finds a penny on the floor. He picks it up and shows it to Jen.

+

+
+"But I like it, Tom. It is pretty. Please let me share it with you." Jen says.
+
+"No, Jen. You cannot share it. It is mine. Give it back now!" Tom says.
+
+Tom and Jen start to pull the penny. They both want it. They do not want to share. They do not listen to each other. They do not say sorry. They get angry and sad.
+
+The penny breaks in half. It is not shiny and round anymore. It is broken and dull. Tom and Jen cry. They do not have a penny. They do not have a friend. They are alone.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Tom had a toy car and Lily had a doll. They liked to share their toys and take turns.
+
+But then Lily saw something shiny on the table. It was a chocolate bar that Mom had left for later. Lily loved chocolate and wanted to have a bite. She forgot about her doll and ran to the table. She grabbed the chocolate bar and opened it.
+
+"Hey, that's Mom's chocolate!" Tom said. "You can't have it!"
+
+"Yes, I can!" Lily said. "It's mine now!"
+
+She put the chocolate bar in her mouth and bit hard. But the chocolate was too soft and gooey. It started to melt in her mouth and on her hands. It dripped on her clothes and on the floor. It made a big mess.
+
+Lily felt sick and sticky. She wanted to spit out the chocolate, but it was too late. She swallowed it and felt a pain in her tummy. She started to cry.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came downstairs. She saw Lily crying and Tom looking angry. She saw the chocolate mess on the table, on the floor, and on Lily's clothes. She was very upset.
+
+"Lily, what did you do?" Mom asked. "You took my chocolate without asking! You made a huge mess! You are very naughty and clumsy!"
+
+She took Lily upstairs to clean her up and change her clothes. She told Tom to stay in the living room and not touch anything. She said she would be back soon.
+
+But she was not back soon. She had to wash Lily's clothes and wipe the chocolate off the floor. She had to give Lily some medicine and put her to bed. She had to call Dad and tell him what happened. She had no time to play with Tom or read him a story.
+
+Tom felt sad and bored. He wished Lily had not taken the chocolate. He wished Mom had not left it on the table. He wished they could all play together and have fun. He wished he had a different sister.

+
+Tom and Mia hear a loud crack. They see the kayak split in two. They see the big boy fall into the water. They see the water fill the kayak. They see the kayak sink.

+Tom and Mia are sad and cry. They run to their dad and tell him what happened. Their dad hugs them and says, "I am sorry, my loves. The big boy was very mean and rude. He should not have done that. He should say sorry and help us fix the kayak."
+
+The big boy swims to the shore. He is wet and cold. He is also sorry and ashamed. He says to Tom and Mia and their dad, "I am sorry, I was very mean and rude. I should not have done that. I will help you fix the kayak. Please forgive me."
+
+Tom and Mia and their dad look at the big boy. They see that he is sorry and ashamed. They decide to forgive him and let him help them fix the kayak. They say, "Thank you, we forgive you. We can fix the kayak together. Maybe we can also play together, if you are nice and gentle."

+"Help, help!" Tom and Sue cry. "The raven is mean and bad!"
+
+A man hears them and comes to help. He has a stick. He waves the stick at the raven. The raven flies away.
+
+"Are you okay, kids?" the man asks. "That raven was not sweet. It was angry and hungry."
+
+"Thank you, mister," Tom and Sue say. "We are sorry. We did not know."
+
+The man smiles. "It's okay. You are safe now. But you should learn not to bother wild animals. They can be dangerous."
+
+Tom and Sue nod. They hug each other. They have learned a lesson. They will not play with ravens again.
+Tom and Anna like to play with blocks. They build towers and houses and cars with the blocks. They have many colors of blocks: red, blue, yellow, green, and more.
+
+One day, Tom and Anna are playing with blocks in their room. Tom wants to build a big tower with all the blocks. He takes the blocks from Anna's house and car. Anna is sad and angry. She says to Tom: "Tom, stop! Those are my blocks! You are not nice!"
+
+Tom does not mind Anna. He says: "I want a big tower. I need all the blocks. Your house and car are waste. They are not fun."
+
+Anna cries and runs to Mom. She tells Mom what Tom did. Mom is not happy. She goes to the room and sees Tom's big tower and Anna's waste. She says to Tom: "Tom, you have to share the blocks with Anna. You cannot take her blocks without asking. That is not fair. You have to be patient and kind."
+
+Tom feels sorry. He says to Mom: "I am sorry, Mom. I was not fair. I was not patient and kind. I will share the blocks with Anna. I will help her build her house and car again."
+
+Mom smiles and hugs Tom. She says: "That is good, Tom. I am proud of you. Sharing is caring. Now, go and say sorry to Anna and play nicely with her."
+
+Tom goes to Anna and says sorry. He gives her some blocks and helps her build her house and car again. Anna smiles and hugs Tom. She says: "Thank you, Tom. You are nice. I forgive you. Let's play together."
+
+Tom and Anna play together with the blocks. They have fun. They are happy. Mom is happy too. She watches them and thinks: "They are good children. I love them."
+Sara and Ben like to play in the garden. They have a big slide and a swing. Sara goes first on the slide. She sits down and pushes herself. Whee! She slides down fast and laughs. Ben waits for his turn.
+
+But Ben sees something on the grass. It is yellow and round. He picks it up. It is a lemon. Ben wonders what it tastes like. He puts it in his mouth and bites. Sour! He makes a funny face and spits it out. Yuck!
+
+Sara sees Ben and laughs. "What are you doing, Ben? That is not a toy. That is a lemon. It is for juice, not for eating. It is rough and sour. You are silly, Ben."
+
+Ben feels silly. He wants to slide too. He puts the lemon down and runs to the slide. He sits down and pushes himself. But he does not see the lemon. His foot hits the lemon and he slips. Oh no! He slides down too fast and bumps his head. Ouch!
+
+Sara hears Ben and runs to him. "Are you okay, Ben? I am sorry. I should have moved the lemon. It is my fault. You are brave, Ben."
+
+Ben rubs his head and smiles. "I am okay, Sara. It is not your fault. It was an accident. You are kind, Sara."
+
+They hug and say sorry. They decide to play something else. They leave the lemon alone. They do not like lemons. They like each other.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the living room. They had many toys, but they were bored. They wanted to do something new and fun.
+
+"Let's play with the fireplace!" Ben suggested. He pointed to the big, black box that had red and yellow flames inside. "It looks warm and pretty!"
+
+Lily shook her head. "No, Ben, that's a bad idea. The fireplace is hot and dangerous. Mommy and Daddy said we should never touch it. We could get hurt or make a mess."
+
+Ben did not listen to Lily. He thought she was silly and scared. He wanted to be brave and curious. He walked to the fireplace and reached for a shiny, metal thing that was hanging on the wall. It looked like a stick with a hook.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Lily cried. "That's a poker. You use it to move the wood in the fireplace. But you don't know how to do it. You could make the fire bigger or drop the poker on the floor."
+
+Ben ignored Lily. He grabbed the poker and swung it in the air. He felt strong and clever. He tried to poke the wood in the fireplace, but he was too small and clumsy. He missed the wood and hit the glass door of the fireplace. The glass cracked and made a loud noise.
+
+Ben and Lily were both scared. They dropped the poker and ran to the couch. They heard Mommy and Daddy coming. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+"Ben and Lily, what did you do?" Mommy asked. She saw the broken glass and the poker on the floor. She was angry and worried. "You were very foolish to play with the fireplace. You could have started a fire or hurt yourselves. You are not allowed to touch the fireplace. Ever. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They felt sorry and ashamed. They said they were sorry and hugged Mommy and Daddy. Mommy and Daddy hugged them back. They were glad that Ben and Lily were not hurt. They told them to be more careful and listen to each other. They said they loved them, but they also gave them a time-out. Ben and Lily learned their lesson. They never played with the fireplace again.
+Lila and Ben were playing outside at night. They liked to look at the stars and the moon. Sometimes they saw a comet, a bright ball of fire that flew across the sky. They wished they could catch a comet and keep it as a toy.
+
+"Look, there's a comet!" Lila shouted, pointing at the sky. "It's so pretty and shiny!"
+
+"Let's run after it!" Ben said, grabbing Lila's hand. "Maybe we can get closer to it!"
+
+They ran across the field, following the comet. They did not see the big hole in the ground. They fell into the hole and hurt themselves. They cried and shouted for help.
+
+"Help, help!" Lila and Ben screamed. "We're stuck in the hole!"
+
+A farmer heard their cries and came to the hole with a flashlight. He saw the two children and felt sorry for them.
+
+"Don't worry, I'll get you out," the farmer said. "But you have to be quiet and listen to me."
+
+He took a rope and tied it to a bucket. He poured some water into the bucket and lowered it into the hole.
+
+"Grab the bucket and hold on tight," the farmer said. "I'll pull you up one by one."
+
+Lila and Ben did as the farmer said. They grabbed the bucket and held on tight. The farmer pulled them up and helped them out of the hole.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" Lila and Ben said, hugging the farmer.
+
+"You're welcome, but you have to be more careful," the farmer said. "You can't run after comets. They are too far and too fast. You can only watch them from a safe place. And you have to watch where you're going. You could have been hurt more badly."
+
+Lila and Ben nodded and said they were sorry. They learned their lesson. They thanked the farmer again and went back to their home. They still liked to look at the stars and the moon, but they never ran after comets again. They knew that comets were not toys, but wonders of the sky.
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a shiny coin on the ground. Anna ran to pick it up, but Ben got there first. He held the coin in his hand and smiled.
+
+"Look, I found a coin!" he said. "It is mine now. I can buy candy with it."
+
+Anna frowned. She wanted the coin too. She thought it was not fair that Ben got it. She tried to grab the coin from him, but he pulled it away.
+
+"No, it is mine!" he said. "You are greedy. Go away!"
+
+Anna felt sad and angry. She did not want to play with Ben anymore. She ran to the swings and sat there alone.
+
+A nice lady saw Anna and Ben. She saw the coin and the frown. She walked over to them and smiled.
+
+"Hello, children," she said. "What is the matter?"
+
+Ben showed her the coin and said, "I found this coin. It is mine. Anna wants it, but she can't have it."
+
+Anna said, "He is mean. He took the coin from me. It is not his."
+
+The lady nodded. She said, "I see. You both like the coin. But do you know what is more important than a coin?"
+
+Anna and Ben shook their heads.
+
+The lady said, "Friendship. Friendship is more important than a coin. A coin can buy you things, but it can't buy you happiness. A friend can make you happy, but only if you are kind and humble. Do you know what humble means?"
+
+Anna and Ben shook their heads again.
+
+The lady said, "Humble means you don't think you are better than others. You share what you have and you say sorry when you are wrong. You are humble when you care about your friend more than yourself. Do you want to be humble?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded.
+
+The lady said, "Good. Then why don't you share the coin? You can buy something together and enjoy it. Or you can give it to someone who needs it more. That would make you both happy and humble. What do you think?"
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other. They felt sorry for being mean and greedy. They said, "We think you are right. We want to be friends and humble. We will share the coin. Thank you, lady."
+
+The lady smiled and hugged them. She said, "You are welcome, children. I am glad you learned a lesson today. Now go and have fun. And remember, friendship is more important than a coin."
+Lily liked to sing. She sang when she woke up, when she ate, when she played and when she went to bed. She sang songs about the sun, the moon, the stars and the flowers. She sang songs that made her happy, sad, angry and silly.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and dad. She saw a big slide, a swing, a sandbox and a merry-go-round. She wanted to try them all. She ran to the slide and sang a song about going fast. She slid down and laughed. She ran to the swing and sang a song about flying high. She swung back and forth and smiled. She ran to the sandbox and sang a song about making castles. She scooped and dumped and built. She ran to the merry-go-round and sang a song about spinning round and round. She hopped on and held tight.
+
+But then, Lily saw something else. She saw a group of kids sitting on a mat. They had books, crayons, stickers and puzzles. They were listening to a lady who was reading a story. Lily liked stories. She wanted to join them. She ran to the mat and sat down. She looked at the books, the crayons, the stickers and the puzzles. She wanted to try them all. She reached for a book and sang a song about reading words. She opened the book and looked. She reached for a crayon and sang a song about drawing pictures. She grabbed the crayon and scribbled. She reached for a sticker and sang a song about sticking things. She peeled the sticker and stuck it. She reached for a puzzle and sang a song about fitting pieces. She picked up a piece and tried to fit it.
+
+But then, Lily heard something else. She heard the lady say, "Shh, shh, shh. This is not a time to sing. This is a time to listen. This is not a time to play. This is a time to learn. This is not a time to make a mess. This is a time to be organized." Lily looked at the lady. She looked at the kids. They were quiet, still and neat. Lily felt sad, bored and confused. She did not like this. She liked to sing. She liked to play. She liked to make a mess. She did not want to be organized. She wanted to have fun.
+
+So, Lily got up and ran away. She ran back to the slide, the swing, the sandbox and the merry-go-round. She sang her songs again. She slid, swung, scooped, dumped, built, hopped and spun. She laughed, smiled, looked and held. She had fun. She saw the sun. She was happy.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had a pink dress and long hair. Anna liked to brush her hair and make her look pretty.
+
+One day, Anna's mom said they had to go to a party. Anna had to wear a new dress. It was blue and shiny, with flowers and ribbons. Anna did not like it. She wanted to wear her ordinary dress, the one she wore every day. It was soft and cozy, and it matched Lily's dress.
+
+Anna's mom said no. She said Anna had to look nice for the party. She said Lily could not come. She said Lily had to stay home and sleep. Anna was sad. She did not want to leave Lily alone. She did not want to go to the party.
+
+Anna had an idea. She hid Lily under her new dress. She hoped her mom would not see. She got in the car and went to the party. She did not talk to anyone. She did not smile. She did not have fun. She only wanted to be with Lily.
+
+At the party, Anna saw a cake. It was big and round, with frosting and candles. Anna liked cake. She wanted a piece. She walked to the table and reached for the cake. But then, something happened. Lily fell out of her dress. She landed on the floor, with a thud. Everyone saw her. Everyone laughed. Anna was embarrassed. She ran to Lily and picked her up. She hugged her and cried. She wished she was home. She wished she was sleeping. She wished she was wearing her ordinary dress.
+Sara was a creative girl who liked to make things with paper and glue. One day, she made a crown with yellow paper and shiny stickers. She was very proud of her crown and wanted to show it to her friends.
+
+She went to the park and saw Lily and Ben playing with a ball. She ran to them and said, "Look at my crown! I made it myself. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at her crown and smiled. They said, "Wow, Sara, your crown is very pretty. You are very creative. Can we try it on?"
+
+Sara was happy that they liked her crown and said, "Sure, you can try it on. But be careful, it is very delicate."
+
+She gave her crown to Lily, who put it on her head. Then Lily gave it to Ben, who put it on his head. They took turns wearing the crown and saying, "I am the king" or "I am the queen".
+
+But then, Ben threw the ball too hard and it hit the crown. The crown fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Sara was very sad and angry. She said, "Ben, you broke my crown! You are very mean. You did not tell me you were going to throw the ball. You should say sorry."
+
+Ben felt sorry and said, "I am sorry, Sara. I did not mean to break your crown. I was just having fun. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Sara looked at Ben and saw that he was sincere. She remembered that she liked Ben and that he was her friend. She said, "I forgive you, Ben. But next time, you should tell me what you are going to do. And you should be more careful with other people's things."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "You are right, Sara. I should tell you and be more careful. Thank you for forgiving me. You are very kind."
+
+They hugged and made up. Then they helped Sara pick up the pieces of her crown. They decided to make a new crown together, using paper, glue, and stickers. They had fun and learned to be more respectful and honest with each other.
+
+The moral of the story is: You should tell your friends what you are going to do and be careful with their things. If you make a mistake, you should say sorry and try to fix it. If someone says sorry, you should forgive them and be kind. Being creative is fun, but being respectful and honest is more important.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big bench near the trees. It looked like a good place to rest.
+
+"Let's sit on the bench," Lily said.
+
+"OK," Max agreed.
+
+They ran to the bench and climbed on it. They felt happy and tired.
+
+But then they heard a loud bark. A big dog was running towards them. It had sharp teeth and angry eyes. It wanted to chase them.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Max shouted.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Lily yelled.
+
+They were scared and wanted to get off the bench. But the dog was too fast. It jumped on the bench and tried to bite them.
+
+"Help, help!" they cried.
+
+A man heard their cries. He was the dog's owner. He ran to the bench and grabbed the dog's collar.
+
+"Bad dog, bad dog!" he scolded. "You can't scare the children!"
+
+He pulled the dog away from the bench. He looked at Lily and Max and said, "I'm sorry, kids. My dog is not friendly. He doesn't like strangers. I should have warned you."
+
+Lily and Max were still shaking. They thanked the man and got off the bench. They ran to their mom, who was waiting for them.
+
+"Mom, mom, a dog tried to bite us!" they told her.
+
+"Oh, no, are you OK?" their mom asked. She hugged them and checked them for injuries.
+
+"We're OK, mom. A man saved us. He said he should have warned us," Lily said.
+
+"Well, I'm glad you're OK. But next time, be careful. Don't go near strange dogs. They can be dangerous," their mom said.
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They learned their lesson. They decided to play somewhere else. They were not ready to sit on the bench again.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the forest. They liked to look for animals, flowers and mushrooms. Sometimes they found big, red mushrooms with white dots. They knew they were not good to eat, but they were fun to touch and smell.
+
+One day, they saw a very big mushroom in a clearing. It was bigger than their heads and had many dots. Lily ran to it and said, "Wow, look at this mushroom! It's so pretty and shiny!"
+
+Ben followed her and said, "It is pretty, but it's also dangerous. Mama said we should never eat these mushrooms. They can make us sick or worse."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I know, I know. But we can still look at it and touch it. It won't hurt us if we don't eat it."
+
+Ben was not so sure. He said, "I don't want to touch it. It might be poisonous or have bugs in it. You shouldn't touch it either. It's not worth it."
+
+Lily was competitive and liked to show Ben that she was brave. She said, "I'm not afraid of it. I'll touch it and nothing will happen. I dare you to touch it too. Are you scared?"
+
+Ben was also competitive and did not like to be called scared. He said, "I'm not scared. I'll touch it if you touch it. But only once. And then we'll go back to Mama."
+
+Lily agreed and said, "Okay, let's do it. On the count of three. One, two, three!"
+
+They both reached out and touched the mushroom. It felt soft and wet. They quickly pulled back their hands and looked at each other. They smiled and said, "See? Nothing happened. We did it!"
+
+They were proud of themselves and ran back to Mama. They told her about the big mushroom and how they touched it. Mama was not happy. She said, "You did what? That was very foolish and dangerous. You could have been hurt or sick. You should never touch or eat mushrooms that you don't know. They are not toys. They are not for fun. They are for nature. Promise me you will never do that again."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry and ashamed. They said, "We're sorry, Mama. We won't do it again. We promise."
+
+Mama hugged them and said, "I'm glad you're okay. I love you both very much. But please, be careful and listen to me. The forest is beautiful, but it can also be dangerous. You have to respect it and learn from it. Not dare it and play with it."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "We understand, Mama. We love you too. And we love the forest. But we'll be more careful and listen to you. And we'll never touch or eat mushrooms that we don't know. Ever."
+
+Mama smiled and said, "Good. Now let's go home and have some soup. And maybe some good mushrooms that we do know."
+Tim and Kim like to play on the lawn. The lawn is green and soft. They have a ball and a hoop. They throw the ball into the hoop and count. One, two, three, four, five. They are good at adding.
+
+One day, a big truck comes to the lawn. It has a lot of dirt and rocks. The truck dumps the dirt and rocks on the lawn. Tim and Kim are sad. They can't play on the lawn anymore. The lawn is brown and hard. They can't see the ball and the hoop. They can't add.
+
+They go to their mom and dad. They ask them why the truck came. Mom and dad say they want to make the lawn better. They say they will add grass and flowers and trees. They say the lawn will be more beautiful and fun. They say Tim and Kim can help them.
+
+Tim and Kim are happy. They want to help mom and dad. They get shovels and rakes and buckets. They move the dirt and rocks. They make holes and mounds. They add seeds and water and mulch. They work hard and have fun.
+
+After a few weeks, the lawn is green and soft again. It has grass and flowers and trees. It has a ball and a hoop. Tim and Kim play on the lawn. They throw the ball into the hoop and count. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. They are good at adding. They love their lawn. They love their mom and dad. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the kitchen with their mom. Today, mom is baking a cake for dad's birthday. She shows Lily and Ben the menu. It has a picture of a cake with candles and fruits.
+
+"Do you want to help me bake the cake?" mom asks.
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily and Ben say. They put on their aprons and wash their hands. Mom gives them a big bowl and a wooden spoon. She tells them to mix the flour, the sugar, the eggs and the butter. Lily and Ben take turns stirring the batter. It is sticky and yellow.
+
+"Can we taste it?" Lily asks.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. We have to bake it in the oven first. Then we can decorate it with whipped cream and fruits. It will be very tasty!" mom says.
+
+She pours the batter into a round pan and puts it in the oven. She sets the timer for 30 minutes. Lily and Ben watch the cake rise and smell the sweet aroma.
+
+"Can we make a card for dad?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, that's a great idea!" mom says. She gives them some paper, crayons and stickers. Lily and Ben draw a cake and write "Happy Birthday Dad" on the card. They also stick some stars and hearts on it.
+
+The timer beeps. Mom takes the cake out of the oven and lets it cool. She whips some cream and cuts some fruits. She lets Lily and Ben help her spread the cream and arrange the fruits on the cake. They make a smiley face with strawberries and bananas.
+
+"Wow, it looks beautiful and tasty!" Lily says.
+
+"It smells yummy too!" Ben says.
+
+Mom puts some candles on the cake and lights them. She tells Lily and Ben to hide behind the couch. They hear dad coming home. They shout "Surprise!" and run to hug him. Dad is very happy and surprised. He thanks mom, Lily and Ben for the cake and the card. He blows out the candles and makes a wish. He cuts a slice for everyone and they enjoy the cake together. It is the best birthday ever.
+Tom and Amy are friends. They like to play together. They enjoy games and toys. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox.
+
+"Look, Amy, a slide!" Tom says. "Let's go!"
+
+They run to the slide and take turns to slide down. They laugh and have fun. Then they see a swing. They want to try it too.
+
+"Can you push me, Tom?" Amy asks.
+
+"OK, Amy, I will push you," Tom says.
+
+He pushes Amy on the swing. She goes high and low. She feels happy. She says, "Thank you, Tom, this is fun!"
+
+They play on the swing for a while. Then they see a sandbox. They go there and find some shovels and buckets. They start to make sandcastles and sandpies. They use sticks and stones to decorate them.
+
+"Look, Tom, I made a famous castle!" Amy says. "It has a flag and a door and a window!"
+
+"Wow, Amy, your castle is famous!" Tom says. "It is very pretty! Look, I made a famous pie! It has a cherry and a cream and a crust!"
+
+"Wow, Tom, your pie is famous!" Amy says. "It looks yummy! Can I have a bite?"
+
+They pretend to eat the pie and share it. They smile and giggle. They enjoy playing in the sandbox. They are happy. They are friends.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the old house. They liked to pretend they were explorers and find new things. They saw a big door that was closed. They wanted to see what was behind it.
+
+"Let's open it!" Ben said.
+
+"Maybe there is something scary inside," Anna said.
+
+"No, there is not. Come on, it will be fun!" Ben said.
+
+They pushed the door and it made a loud noise. They saw a dark room with many cobwebs. They also saw a man sitting on a chair. He looked very old and angry. He had a long beard and a hat.
+
+"Who are you? What are you doing here?" the man shouted.
+
+He scared Anna and Ben. They did not know he lived in the old house. They thought it was empty.
+
+"We are sorry, sir. We did not mean to disturb you. We were just playing," Anna said.
+
+"Playing? Playing in my house? How dare you! This is my house and you are not welcome here! Go away and never come back!" the man said.
+
+He waved his stick at them. Anna and Ben ran away from the room. They did not want to stay in the old house anymore. They felt miserable. They had made the man angry and they had not found anything fun.
+
+They went back to their home and told their mom what had happened. She hugged them and said they were brave. She said the man was lonely and sad and that was why he was mean. She said they should not go to the old house again. She said they could play in the park instead.
+
+Anna and Ben agreed. They did not like the old house anymore. They liked the park better. There were no cobwebs, no angry men and no loud doors. There were flowers, swings and friends. They were happy again.
+Lily was bored. She did not want to play with her toys. She did not want to read her books. She did not want to nap. She wanted to do something new and fun. She decided to wander around the house and look for something interesting.
+
+She went to the kitchen and saw a big cake on the table. It looked yummy. She wanted to taste it. But she remembered that Mommy said no. The cake was for Daddy's birthday. Lily was sad. She left the kitchen and wandered some more.
+
+She went to the living room and saw a shiny ball on the floor. It looked fun. She wanted to play with it. But she remembered that it was Max's ball. Max was her big brother. He did not like to share his ball. He would be mad if he saw her with it. Lily was scared. She left the living room and wandered some more.
+
+She went to the bathroom and saw a smelly soap on the sink. It looked weird. She wanted to smell it. But she remembered that it was Grandma's soap. Grandma gave it to her as a gift. She said it was good for her skin. Lily did not like it. She thought it smelled like flowers and dirt. Lily was grossed out. She left the bathroom and wandered some more.
+
+She went to the bedroom and saw a fluffy bear on the bed. It looked cozy. She wanted to hug it. But she remembered that it was Molly's bear. Molly was her baby sister. She loved her bear very much. She would cry if she lost it. Lily was sorry. She left the bedroom and wandered some more.
+
+She went back to her own bedroom and saw her favorite doll on the shelf. It looked lonely. She wanted to talk to it. She picked it up and said, "Hi, Daisy. Do you want to play with me?" Daisy smiled and nodded. Lily was happy. She finally found something interesting and fun. She hugged Daisy and played with her until Mommy called her for dinner.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant and water. They saw some green things growing in a corner. They smelled nice.
+
+"What are these?" Lily asked.
+
+"These are herbs," Tom said. "Mommy uses them to cook. She says they make food yummy."
+
+"Can we pick some?" Lily asked.
+
+"Only a little," Tom said. "We have to work hard to take care of them. They need sun and water and space."
+
+They picked some herbs and put them in a basket. They were careful not to hurt the plants. They saw a big shadow over them. They looked up and saw an enormous bird. It had a long beak and bright feathers. It was making a loud noise.
+
+"Wow!" Lily said. "What is that?"
+
+"That is a parrot," Tom said. "It lives in the jungle. It can talk like us."
+
+"Hello, hello!" the parrot said.
+
+"Hello, parrot!" Lily and Tom said.
+
+"Can you be our friend?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, sure!" the parrot said. "But I'm hungry. Can I have some herbs?"
+
+"OK, but only a little," Tom said. "We worked hard to grow them."
+
+They gave some herbs to the parrot. It ate them and said, "Yummy, yummy!"
+
+They laughed and played with the parrot. They had a lot of fun. They learned new words and colors. They were happy.
+Ben and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. Ben has a red car that is very fast. Sam has a blue car that is very slow.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race with their cars. They go to the park and find a long path. They put their cars at one end of the path and stand at the other end. They say, "Ready, set, go!" and push their cars.
+
+Ben's car zooms ahead of Sam's car. It is very fast. Sam's car crawls behind Ben's car. It is very slow. Ben laughs and says, "I will win the race! My car is the best!"
+
+Sam feels sad and says, "No, you will not win the race! My car is the best!"
+
+Ben says, "How can your car be the best? It is so slow!"
+
+Sam says, "My car has a secret. It can go faster when it wants to. You will see!"
+
+Ben says, "I don't believe you. You are just saying that because you are losing. Promise me that you are not lying."
+
+Sam says, "I promise. I am not lying. Just wait and see!"
+
+They keep watching their cars. Ben's car is almost at the end of the path. Sam's car is still far behind. Ben smiles and says, "I told you! I will win the race! You should have picked a faster car!"
+
+But then, something happens. Sam's car suddenly speeds up. It goes faster and faster. It catches up with Ben's car. It passes Ben's car. It reaches the end of the path first.
+
+Sam cheers and says, "I won the race! I won the race! My car is the best!"
+
+Ben is shocked and says, "How did you do that? How did your car go so fast?"
+
+Sam says, "I told you! My car has a secret. It has a turbo button. When I push the button, it goes faster. I pushed the button when you were not looking. I was not lying. I promised."
+
+Ben is angry and says, "That is not fair! You cheated! You did not tell me about the button. You should have told me. That is not how you play."
+
+Sam says, "I'm sorry. I just wanted to win. I did not mean to make you angry. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He says, "OK. I forgive you. But next time, you have to tell me the rules. And you have to let me try your car. It is very cool."
+
+Sam says, "OK. I will tell you the rules. And you can try my car. It is very fun."
+
+They hug and say, "We are still friends. We like to play with cars."
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a vest on a bench. The vest is smooth and shiny. It has many colors.
+
+"Wow, look at this vest!" Lila says. "It is so pretty. Can I try it on?"
+
+"OK, but only for a little bit," Ben says. "Then I want to try it on too."
+
+Lila puts on the vest. She feels happy. She twirls and dances. She shows Ben how the vest sparkles in the sun.
+
+"You look nice, Lila," Ben says. "But can I have a turn now?"
+
+Lila nods. She takes off the vest and gives it to Ben. Ben puts on the vest. He feels happy too. He runs and jumps. He shows Lila how the vest flaps in the wind.
+
+"You look cool, Ben," Lila says. "But we should give the vest back. Maybe someone is looking for it."
+
+Ben nods. He takes off the vest and puts it back on the bench. Lila and Ben hold hands. They walk away from the vest.
+
+"Bye, vest," they say. "Thank you for letting us play with you."
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they disagree. One day, they want to make a cake with Mom. Mom says they can help, but they have to follow the rules.
+
+Lily wants to put a lot of sugar in the cake. She says sugar makes the cake sweet and yummy. Ben disagrees. He says too much sugar is bad for your teeth and tummy. He wants to put some fruit in the cake. He says fruit makes the cake healthy and colorful.
+
+They start to argue. "Sugar, sugar, sugar!" Lily shouts. "Fruit, fruit, fruit!" Ben shouts. Mom hears them and comes to the kitchen. She sees the mess they have made. She is not happy.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" Mom says. "You are making too much noise and too much trouble. You have to share and be nice. You can both put some sugar and some fruit in the cake. That way, the cake will be sweet and healthy and pretty. OK?"
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They think for a moment. Then they nod. They say sorry to Mom and to each other. They hug and smile. They help Mom to make the cake. The cake is not ordinary. It is special. It is a cake of love.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play with blocks. They could build many things with blocks, like houses, cars, and animals. One day, they decided to design a big hall with blocks. A hall was a long room where people could walk and talk.
+
+They worked hard and used many blocks to make the hall. They made walls, windows, doors, and a roof. They were very proud of their hall. They wanted to show it to their mom and dad.
+
+"Look, mom and dad, we designed a hall with blocks!" Anna said.
+
+"Wow, that's amazing, Anna and Ben!" mom said. "You are very creative and smart!"
+
+"Can we walk inside the hall?" dad asked.
+
+"Sure, dad, come on!" Ben said.
+
+They all walked inside the hall. It was very big and cozy. They saw pictures, flowers, and toys that Anna and Ben had put inside. They smiled and hugged each other.
+
+But then, something bad happened. A loud noise came from outside. It was a big truck that was passing by. The truck made the ground shake. The hall started to wobble and fall apart. The blocks fell down and broke. Anna and Ben were scared and sad. They ran out of the hall and cried.
+
+"Mom, dad, our hall is gone!" Anna said.
+
+"We worked so hard and now it's ruined!" Ben said.
+
+Mom and dad hugged them and comforted them.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna and Ben, that was an accident. The truck didn't mean to break your hall. Sometimes things happen that we can't control. But don't worry, you can always build another hall with blocks. You have many blocks and you have each other. You are dependable. Dependable means you can trust each other and help each other. You are a good team and you can do anything you want. You just have to try again and not give up." mom said.
+
+"Really, mom?" Anna asked.
+
+"Really, dad?" Ben asked.
+
+"Really, Anna and Ben. We love you and we are proud of you. You are our little designers. Now, let's clean up the blocks and start over. Maybe we can make the hall stronger and bigger this time. What do you say?" dad said.
+
+Anna and Ben wiped their tears and nodded. They smiled and hugged their mom and dad.
+
+"OK, mom and dad, let's do it!" Anna said.
+
+"Yeah, let's do it!" Ben said.
+
+They all picked up the blocks and started to design a new hall. They had fun and learned a lesson. They learned that being dependable is important and that they can always try again. They learned that designing is fun and that they can make anything they want with blocks. They learned that they are a family and that they love each other. They were happy and proud. They were little designers.
+Lila liked to look at the sky. She saw many things in the sky. She saw birds and clouds and stars. Sometimes she saw planes and kites and balloons. She wondered what else was in the sky.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a big tree with a swing. She wanted to swing high and touch the sky. She asked her mom to push her. Her mom said yes and pushed her gently.
+
+Lila felt happy and free. She swung higher and higher. She saw something unusual in the sky. It was not a bird or a cloud or a star. It was a rainbow. It had many colors. It was bright and beautiful.
+
+Lila wanted to meet the rainbow. She reached out her hand and said hello. The rainbow smiled and said hello back. It was friendly and kind. It told Lila its name was Roy. It said it liked to visit the sky and make people happy.
+
+Lila and Roy became friends. They talked and laughed and played. They had fun in the sky. Lila forgot about the swing and the park and her mom. She only saw the rainbow and the sky. She felt very happy. She had met someone unusual and wonderful.
+Lily liked to work with her mom. Her mom made pretty things with ribbons and beads. She gave Lily a bow to put in her hair. Lily felt happy.
+
+But then Lily saw a big dog outside. The dog barked loud and ran fast. Lily was scared. She ran to her mom and hugged her. The bow fell off her hair.
+
+Her mom picked up the bow and smiled. She said, "Don't worry, Lily. The dog is friendly. He just wants to play. Do you want to try again?"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked to work with her mom. But she felt uncomfortable with the bow. It was too tight and itchy. She said, "Mom, can I have a different bow? This one hurts my head."
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, Lily. You can choose any bow you like. How about this one? It is soft and pink and has a flower on it."
+
+Lily smiled. She liked the new bow. It was comfortable and cute. She put it in her hair and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Lily. You are my sweet girl." They hugged and kissed. Then they went outside to play with the dog. Lily was not scared anymore. She was happy.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they got a new toy from their mom: a stuffed monkey. It was brown and soft and had a long tail. Lily and Tom both wanted to play with the monkey, but they did not want to share.
+
+"I saw it first!" Lily said, grabbing the monkey.
+
+"No, I did!" Tom said, pulling the monkey.
+
+They fought and fought over the monkey, until they heard a loud rip. The monkey's tail came off in their hands. They looked at the monkey and saw a big hole in its back. They felt sad and sorry.
+
+They realized they had been selfish and mean to each other and to the monkey. They hugged and said they were sorry. They decided to share the monkey and fix its tail. They asked their mom for some thread and a needle. They sewed the tail back on the monkey, very carefully. They gave the monkey a name: Patch. They played with Patch together, and took turns holding him. They learned to be kind and generous. They were happy and so was Patch.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Ben sees a new toy car in Lily's room. He wants to play with it.
+
+"Can I borrow your car?" he asks Lily.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. It is my favorite car," Lily says.
+
+Ben takes the car and runs to the garden. He drives the car on the grass and the dirt. He has fun. He does not see the big rock. He is careless.
+
+Crash! The car hits the rock and breaks. Ben is sad. He does not know what to do.
+
+He goes back to Lily's room. He gives her the broken car.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I broke your car. I was careless," he says.
+
+Lily is angry. She cries. She does not want to be Ben's friend anymore.
+
+"You are a bad friend. You did not take care of my car. You can't borrow anything from me again," she says.
+
+Ben feels bad. He wishes he was more careful. He wants to make Lily happy again. He thinks of a way to say sorry.
+
+He goes to his room. He finds his best toy. It is a teddy bear. He loves his teddy bear. He takes his teddy bear and walks to Lily's room.
+
+He knocks on the door.
+
+"Lily, can I talk to you?" he says.
+
+Lily opens the door. She sees Ben and his teddy bear.
+
+"What do you want?" she says.
+
+"I want to say sorry. I know I was wrong. I should have been careful with your car. I know it was your favorite. I feel bad. I want to give you something. You can have my teddy bear. It is my favorite. I hope you like it," he says.
+
+Lily looks at the teddy bear. She likes the teddy bear. She sees that Ben is sorry. She feels sorry too.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. That is very nice of you. I like your teddy bear. I'm sorry I was angry. I know you did not mean to break my car. You are a good friend. I forgive you," she says.
+
+She takes the teddy bear and hugs it. She smiles at Ben. Ben smiles back. They are friends again. They go to the garden and play with the teddy bear and the broken car. They are careful and happy.
+Lily and Ben went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and giraffes. They liked to watch them and learn their names.
+
+When they came to the bird house, they saw a big cage with colorful parrots. The parrots were noisy and funny. They could talk and say hello, bye-bye, and crackers.
+
+Lily had a question. She asked her mom, "Why are the parrots in a cage? Can they not fly away?"
+
+Her mom said, "The parrots are in a cage because they are not from here. They are from far away, where it is warm and sunny. They need a cage to be safe and happy. They can fly, but only inside the cage."
+
+Ben had a question too. He asked his mom, "Why are some parrots lazy? They do not talk or play. They just sit and sleep."
+
+His mom said, "Some parrots are lazy because they are tired or bored. They need more friends or toys to have fun. Maybe they miss their home."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for the lazy parrots. They wished they could help them. They said to the parrots, "We are your friends. We like you. Do not be sad. Be happy."
+
+Some of the parrots heard them and smiled. They said, "Thank you. You are nice. We are happy." They started to talk and play with Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy too. They learned a lot about the parrots. They said bye-bye to the parrots and went to see more animals.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. It is very high. Ben wants to go on the slide. Mia is scared.
+
+"Come on, Mia. It is fun. You can do it," Ben says.
+
+"No, Ben. It is too high. I do not want to go," Mia says.
+
+Ben goes on the slide. He slides down fast. He laughs. He feels happy. He runs to the slide again.
+
+Mia watches Ben. She feels sad. She wants to have fun too. She remembers when she went on a small slide. She liked it. She thinks maybe she can try the big slide.
+
+She walks to the slide. She climbs the steps. She looks down. She feels scared. She wants to go back. But she sees Ben. He smiles at her. He says, "You can do it, Mia. I am here."
+
+Mia takes a deep breath. She sits on the slide. She slides down slowly. She feels nervous. But then she feels a breeze. She sees the trees. She hears the birds. She feels happy. She reaches the bottom. She jumps off. She runs to Ben. They hug.
+
+"Wow, Mia. You did it. You are brave. I am proud of you," Ben says.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. I am proud of me too," Mia says.
+
+They see a man. He has a big smile. He has a bag. He says, "Hello, kids. I saw you on the slide. You did great. You deserve a prize. Here, take one."
+
+He opens the bag. He has stickers. He has balloons. He has candy. Ben and Mia are happy. They say, "Thank you, sir. Thank you for the prize."
+
+They choose a sticker. They choose a balloon. They choose a candy. They say goodbye to the man. They go to the swings. They share their prize. They have fun. They remember the slide. They smile.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their crayons and paper. They liked to draw animals and flowers and cars. Lily had a red crayon and Ben had a blue one.
+
+"Look, I drew a big fish!" Lily said, showing her paper to Ben. "It has fins and scales and a tail."
+
+"That's a nice fish, Lily," Ben said. "But I like my bird better. It has wings and a beak and feathers."
+
+They both smiled and kept drawing. They were having fun.
+
+But then, Lily saw something on the table. It was a bottle of ink. It was black and shiny and had a cap.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked, pointing to the bottle.
+
+"That's ink," Ben said. "It's for writing with a pen. But we can't use it. It's Mommy's."
+
+Lily was curious. She wanted to see what ink looked like. She reached for the bottle.
+
+"Stop, Lily!" Ben said. "Don't touch it! It's messy and it can stain your clothes and hands."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She grabbed the bottle and opened the cap. She tilted the bottle over her paper.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben said. "Lily, what are you doing?"
+
+But it was too late. The ink spilled out of the bottle and onto Lily's paper. It made a big black blob that covered her fish. It also dripped on the table and on Lily's dress.
+
+Lily gasped. She dropped the bottle and looked at the mess. She felt sad and scared. She had ruined her drawing and made a stain.
+
+"Sorry, Ben," Lily said in a small voice. "I just wanted to see the ink."
+
+Ben looked at Lily. He saw that she was sorry. He felt sorry for her too. He knew that ink was hard to clean.
+
+"It's okay, Lily," Ben said. "It was an accident. But you should have listened to me. Ink is not for playing. It's for writing."
+
+He took a napkin and tried to wipe the ink off the table and Lily's dress. But it did not work. The ink was too dark and sticky.
+
+"Mommy will be mad," Lily said. "She will see the ink and the stain and the mess."
+
+Ben hugged Lily. He wanted to make her feel better.
+
+"Maybe not," Ben said. "Maybe we can tell her it was a surprise. A surprise for her birthday."
+
+Lily looked at Ben. She did not understand.
+
+"A surprise?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He had an idea.
+
+"Yes, a surprise," Ben said. "We can make a card for Mommy with the ink. We can write 'Happy Birthday' and 'We love you' and draw some hearts. Mommy likes cards. She will be happy."
+
+Lily thought about it. She liked the idea. She smiled.
+
+"Okay," Lily said. "Let's make a card for Mommy. A warm card with ink."
+
+They took another paper and a pen. They dipped the pen in the ink and wrote and drew on the paper. They made a card for Mommy. A warm card with ink. They hoped she would like it.
+Lily was very happy. She had a new friend at school. Her name was Anna. Anna was nice and funny. She liked to play with dolls and cars. Lily wanted to invite Anna to her house.
+
+"Anna, do you want to come to my house after school?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, Lily, I want to come. Can we play with your toys?" Anna said.
+
+"Of course, we can. I have many toys. And I have a big surprise for you," Lily said.
+
+Lily and Anna walked to Lily's house. They held hands and talked. They were very excited. Lily's mom opened the door and smiled.
+
+"Hello, girls. Welcome to our house. You can play in Lily's room. Have fun," Lily's mom said.
+
+Lily and Anna ran to Lily's room. They saw many toys on the floor. They saw dolls, cars, books, puzzles, and more. They started to play. They laughed and shared.
+
+"Lily, what is your surprise?" Anna asked.
+
+Lily pointed to the window. There was a big curtain. It was black. It had stars and moons on it.
+
+"Look, Anna. This is my surprise. This is my magic curtain. Do you want to see what is behind it?" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, Lily. I want to see. What is behind it?" Anna said.
+
+Lily pulled the curtain. Behind it, there was a big poster. It had a picture of a castle. It had a princess and a dragon. It had flowers and trees.
+
+"Wow, Lily. This is amazing. This is your magic curtain. It shows you different things. Can we pretend to be in the castle?" Anna said.
+
+"Yes, Anna. We can. We can be princesses. We can have a tea party. We can fight the dragon. We can do anything we want. This is our magic curtain. It makes our dreams come true," Lily said.
+
+Lily and Anna smiled. They hugged. They were very happy. They had a new friend. They had a magic curtain. They had a lot of fun.
+Sam and Lily were friends who liked to play together. They went to camp with other kids and had fun. They slept in tents, sang songs, and made crafts. One day, they had a race to see who could run faster.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" said the teacher. Sam and Lily ran as fast as they could. They wanted to win the race and get a prize. But Sam tripped on a rock and fell down. He hurt his knee and cried. Lily stopped and ran back to help him.
+
+"Are you okay, Sam?" she asked. She gave him a hug and a band-aid. Sam felt better, but he was also sad. He lost the race and everyone saw him fall. He felt embarrass.
+
+The other kids laughed at Sam. They pointed at him and said mean words. "Ha ha, Sam is a baby! He can't run! He needs Lily to help him!" They made fun of him and his band-aid.
+
+Sam felt angry and ashamed. He did not like the other kids. He did not want to be at camp anymore. He wished he could go home. He looked at Lily and said, "I don't want to be your friend anymore. You made me embarrass. Go away!"
+
+Lily felt hurt and confused. She did not understand why Sam was mad at her. She only wanted to help him. She did not laugh at him or say mean words. She was his friend. She said, "But Sam, I'm sorry. I didn't make you embarrass. I was trying to be nice. Please don't be mad at me. Please be my friend."
+
+But Sam did not listen. He turned away and ran to his tent. He did not talk to Lily or anyone else. He stayed in his tent until the camp was over. He did not have fun. He did not make any new friends. He did not learn anything new. He only felt sorry for himself.
+
+The end.
+Sam and Mia liked to race each other in the park. They ran as fast as they could, and sometimes they fell down and got dirty. But they always got up and laughed.
+
+One day, they saw a big fence with a sign that said "Keep Out". Behind the fence, there was a lot of noise and smoke. Sam and Mia were nosy. They wanted to see what was behind the fence.
+
+"Let's race to the fence and peek over it," Sam said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It might be dangerous," Mia said.
+
+They ran to the fence and climbed on a big rock. They looked over the fence and saw a lot of big machines and people in hard hats. They were building something.
+
+Suddenly, one of the people saw them and shouted, "Hey, you kids! Get off the fence! This is not a place to play!"
+
+Sam and Mia were scared. They jumped off the rock and ran away. They did not stop until they reached the other side of the park. There, they sat on a bench and caught their breath.
+
+"That was not fun," Sam said.
+
+"No, it was not. It was scary," Mia said.
+
+They looked at each other and hugged. They decided to never go near the fence again.
+
+They heard a bird singing in a tree. They smiled and listened to the song. They liked the silence. It was peaceful.
+Lila likes to sing songs. She sings when she is happy, when she is sad, when she is bored. She sings to her toys, to her mom, to her cat. She thinks singing makes everything better.
+
+One day, Lila goes to the park with her mom. She sees a big slide and wants to go on it. She runs to the slide and climbs up the ladder. She is very excited. She sings a song to the slide, a song about how fun it is to slide down.
+
+But when she reaches the top, she sees a big boy waiting for his turn. He is bigger than Lila and he looks angry. He does not like Lila's song. He tells her to stop singing and get off the slide. He pushes her hard and she falls off the ladder.
+
+Lila feels a lot of pain. She cries and cries. Her mom runs to her and hugs her. She tries to calm her down, but Lila does not stop crying. She has a big bruise on her arm and a cut on her leg. She does not want to sing anymore. She thinks singing makes everything worse.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll and Max had a car. They were having fun, but they were also thirsty.
+
+"Can we have some juice, Mommy?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, sweetie. I'll bring you some in a minute. Be polite and share, okay?" Mommy said.
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They waited for Mommy to come back with the juice. They saw a big red button on the wall. It looked shiny and interesting.
+
+"What does this button do?" Max wondered.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it makes a sound or a light," Lily guessed.
+
+"Let's press it and see," Max said.
+
+He reached for the button, but Lily stopped him.
+
+"No, Max. Don't touch it. It might be dangerous. Mommy said to be polite and wait for the juice," Lily said.
+
+"But I'm curious. Maybe it's fun. Just one press," Max said.
+
+He pushed Lily away and pressed the button. Suddenly, a loud siren went off and a voice said, "Fire alarm! Fire alarm! Evacuate the building!"
+
+Lily and Max were scared. They dropped their toys and ran to Mommy, who was coming with the juice.
+
+"What did you do, Max?" Mommy asked.
+
+"I pressed the button. I'm sorry, Mommy," Max said.
+
+Mommy hugged them and said, "It's okay, Max. You didn't know. But you should listen to Lily. She was polite and smart. She knew not to touch the button. Come on, let's go outside and wait for the firemen."
+
+They followed Mommy outside and saw the other people from the building. They were all surprised and worried. The firemen came and checked the building. There was no fire, just a false alarm.
+
+Mommy gave Lily and Max their juice and said, "You can drink now, but be careful. Don't press any more buttons, okay?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They drank their juice and said, "We're sorry, Mommy. We won't do it again."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "I love you, Lily and Max. You're good kids. But next time, be polite and patient, and don't touch what you don't know."
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to swim in the pool. They had chubby cheeks and big smiles. One day, they went to the pool with their mom and dad. They put on their swim suits and jumped in the water.
+
+"Look at me, Lily!" Ben said. "I can swim like a fish!" He moved his arms and legs and swam across the pool.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are fast!" Lily said. "But I can swim like a dolphin!" She made a big splash and swam after him.
+
+They played and laughed and had fun. Then they saw a big ball floating in the water. It was red and shiny and round.
+
+"Let's play with the ball, Lily!" Ben said. "I can throw it high in the air!"
+
+"OK, Ben, but be careful!" Lily said. "Don't let it sink!"
+
+Ben grabbed the ball and threw it up. It went very high and then came down. But Ben missed it and it landed in the water.
+
+"Oh no, the ball is sinking!" Ben said. "I have to get it!"
+
+He dove into the water and tried to reach the ball. But the ball was too deep and Ben was too chubby. He could not swim down. He felt scared and started to cry.
+
+"Lily, help me!" He shouted. "I can't get the ball!"
+
+Lily heard him and swam to him. She grabbed his hand and pulled him up. They both came out of the water and gasped for air.
+
+"Ben, are you OK?" Lily asked. "You scared me!"
+
+"I'm OK, Lily, thank you!" Ben said. "You saved me!"
+
+They hugged each other and then looked at the ball. It was still sinking in the water.
+
+"Let's forget the ball, Ben," Lily said. "It's not worth it. We have each other and that's more important."
+
+"You're right, Lily," Ben said. "You're the best sister ever. I love you!"
+
+They smiled and kissed and then swam back to their mom and dad. They told them what happened and they hugged them too.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. Swimming is fun, but safety is first. And nothing is more precious than family.
+Tom is a doctor. He likes to help people who are sick or hurt. He has a big bag with many things he can use to make them feel better. He has a stethoscope, a thermometer, a bandage, and some medicine.
+
+One day, he goes to see Anna. Anna is a patient. She has a sore throat and a fever. She feels very hot and tired. Tom uses his stethoscope to listen to her heart and lungs. He uses his thermometer to check her temperature. He says, "You have a fever, Anna. You need to rest and drink water. I will give you some medicine to help you."
+
+He takes out a small bottle from his bag. It has green liquid inside. He says, "This is the medicine. It will make your throat feel better. But it does not taste good. You have to be brave and drink it." He pours some of the green liquid into a spoon and gives it to Anna.
+
+Anna makes a face. She does not like the green liquid. It is bitter and sour. She wants to spit it out. But she remembers that Tom is a doctor and he wants to help her. She is a good patient. She swallows the green liquid and says, "Thank you, Tom."
+
+Tom smiles. He says, "You are very welcome, Anna. You are a very good patient. You are also very brave. The green liquid will work soon. You will feel better tomorrow. Now you need to sleep and dream of nice things." He puts a bandage on her arm with a sticker of a flower. He says, "This is a gift for you. It will make you happy." He says goodbye to Anna and her mom and leaves.
+
+Anna feels a little better. She likes the bandage and the sticker. She likes Tom. He is a nice doctor. She closes her eyes and falls asleep. She dreams of green fields and flowers.
+Ben and Sam were brothers. They liked to play in the old house near the woods. The old house was big and dark and had many rooms. Ben and Sam liked to pretend they were explorers and look for treasure.
+
+One day, they found a door that was locked. They wanted to see what was behind the door. They looked for a key, but they could not find one. Then they saw a big hole in the wall. They crawled through the hole and entered the room.
+
+The room was very dry and dusty. There were old books and toys and clothes on the floor. Ben and Sam thought they had found a lot of treasure. They started to pick up the things and put them in their bags.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was a ghost. The ghost was angry. The ghost did not like that Ben and Sam took his things. The ghost said, "This is my room. You are not welcome here. Go away or I will change you into something else."
+
+Ben and Sam were scared. They dropped their bags and ran to the hole. But the hole was gone. The ghost had changed the wall. Ben and Sam were trapped in the room. They cried and screamed, but no one heard them. The ghost laughed and said, "Now you are my toys. I will play with you forever."
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play pretend. Today, they are pretending to be singers. They have a stage in the garden. It is a big box with a blanket on top.
+
+Tom goes first. He sings a song he knows. He sings loud and happy. Mia claps for him. She says, "You are good, Tom. You are a star."
+
+Now it is Mia's turn. She is nervous. She does not know what song to sing. She walks to the stage. She stumbles on a rock. She falls down. She hurts her knee. She cries.
+
+Tom runs to her. He helps her up. He says, "Are you okay, Mia? I am sorry you fell. Do you want a hug?"
+
+Mia nods. She hugs Tom. She says, "Thank you, Tom. You are kind. You are a friend."
+
+They sit on the grass. They look at the sky. They see a plane. It is distant. It makes a noise. They wonder where it is going. They smile. They are happy. They are still singers.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys. But sometimes they want the same toy. Then they feel jealous and angry.
+
+One day, Mom gives them a new toy. It is a big red car. It can make noises and move. Tom and Lily both want to play with it. They grab it and pull it. They shout at each other.
+
+"Mine!" Tom says.
+
+"No, mine!" Lily says.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see. She is not happy. She says, "Stop it, Tom and Lily. You have to share the car. You can take turns. Tom, you can play with it for five minutes. Then Lily, you can play with it for five minutes. OK?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They do not want to make Mom angry. Tom plays with the car first. He makes it go vroom vroom. He feels happy. Lily watches him. She feels jealous. She wants to play with the car too. She waits for her turn.
+
+But Tom does not want to give the car to Lily. He likes it too much. He plays with it for more than five minutes. He pretends he does not hear Mom. He pretends he does not see Lily.
+
+Lily gets angry. She says, "Tom, it is my turn. Give me the car. Now!"
+
+Tom says, "No, it is still my turn. Go away!"
+
+Lily does not go away. She runs to Tom and tries to take the car. Tom pushes her away. Lily falls down. She hurts her knee. She cries.
+
+Mom hears Lily cry. She comes to see. She sees Tom with the car and Lily on the floor. She is very angry. She says, "Tom, how could you do that? You hurt your sister. You did not share the car. You did not listen to me. You are very naughty. Give me the car. Now!"
+
+Tom feels scared. He gives the car to Mom. Mom takes the car and puts it on a high shelf. She says, "No one can play with the car today. You have to learn to share and be nice. Go to your room. Now!"
+
+Tom and Lily feel sad. They go to their room. They do not have the car. They do not have any toys. They do not have any fun. They wish they had shared the car. They wish they had not been jealous and angry. They say sorry to each other. They hug. They feel better. They hope Mom will let them play with the car tomorrow. They hope they will be good twins.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. They had a map and a shovel and a big hat.
+
+"Look, the map says the treasure is in the kitchen!" Tom said. "Let's go and find it!"
+
+They ran to the house and opened the door. The kitchen was dark and quiet. They saw a big cake on the table. It had pink icing and sprinkles.
+
+"Wow, that cake looks yummy!" Anna said. "Maybe that's the treasure!"
+
+"Shh, we have to be sneaky!" Tom said. "We can't let anyone see us. We have to steal the cake!"
+
+They tiptoed to the table and reached for the cake. But as they touched it, a loud voice shouted.
+
+"Ahoy, me hearties! You've fallen into my trap!"
+
+They turned around and saw a man with a long beard and a hook. He was wearing a pirate costume and had a parrot on his shoulder. He was smiling.
+
+"Who are you?" Tom asked.
+
+"I'm Captain Jack, the most mysterious pirate in the world!" the man said. "And this is my cake. I made it for my birthday. Do you want to join me?"
+
+Tom and Anna looked at each other. They were scared, but also curious.
+
+"Are you a real pirate?" Anna asked.
+
+"Of course I am!" Captain Jack said. "And you can be my crew, if you like. We can share the cake and have some fun. What do you say?"
+
+Tom and Anna nodded. They liked cake and fun. They followed Captain Jack to the living room, where he had balloons and games and music.
+
+They didn't know that Captain Jack was really their uncle Bob, who had come to visit and surprise them. He loved to play and tell stories. He was the best uncle ever.
+Sam likes to ride his bike. He has a red bike with two big wheels and a bell. He rides his bike every day with his mom and dad. They go to the park, the store, and the school. Sam is very happy on his bike.
+
+One day, Sam sees a big hill. He wants to ride his bike down the hill. He thinks it will be fun and fast. He tells his mom and dad, but they say no. They say the hill is too steep and dangerous. They say he could fall and hurt himself. They say he should be obedient and listen to them.
+
+Sam is sad and angry. He does not want to listen. He wants to ride his bike down the hill. He waits until his mom and dad are not looking. He sneaks away and pedals to the hill. He feels excited and brave. He does not see the car coming.
+
+The car honks and brakes. Sam is scared and screams. He tries to stop his bike, but it is too late. He crashes into the car and flies off his bike. He lands on the ground and feels pain. He cries and cries.
+
+His mom and dad hear him and run to him. They are worried and angry. They hug him and check him. He has some cuts and bruises, but he is not badly hurt. They wrap him in a sheet and take him to the car. They say he was very naughty and foolish. They say he could have died. They say he should never do that again.
+
+Sam feels sorry and ashamed. He says he is sorry and he loves them. He says he will never do that again. He says he will be obedient and listen to them. He learns his lesson. He still likes to ride his bike, but he does not go to the hill. He stays with his mom and dad. He is safe and happy.
+Lila had a parrot. His name was Blue. He was very pretty and smart. He could talk and sing. Lila loved Blue very much. She gave him food and water and toys. She played with him every day.
+
+But Blue was lonely. He wanted to see other parrots. He wanted to fly in the sky. He did not like his cage. He wanted to escape. One day, he saw a window. It was open. He pushed his cage door with his beak. It opened. He flew out of the cage and out of the window.
+
+Lila came home from school. She ran to her room. She wanted to see Blue. But Blue was not there. His cage was empty. The window was open. Lila cried. She looked out of the window. She saw Blue in a tree. He was with other parrots. They were happy. They flew away.
+
+Lila called Blue. She said, "Blue, come back! I love you! I miss you!" But Blue did not hear her. He did not come back. He was free. He was not lonely. But Lila was. She was very sad. She lost her parrot. She lost her friend. The end.
+Sara was a stubborn girl. She did not like to share her toys with her brother Tom. She always hid them under her bed or in her closet. She thought Tom was too rough and noisy with her toys.
+
+One day, Mom gave Sara and Tom a new puzzle. It had many pieces and colors. Sara wanted to do the puzzle by herself. She grabbed the box and ran to her room. She locked the door and started to put the pieces together.
+
+Tom knocked on the door. "Sara, can I play with you?" he asked. "No, go away!" Sara shouted. "This is my puzzle. You can't have it." Tom felt sad and angry. He went to his room and looked for something else to play with.
+
+Sara worked on the puzzle for a long time. She found the corners and the edges. She tried to match the colors and shapes. But the puzzle was hard. She could not finish it. She got frustrated and bored. She wished she had someone to help her.
+
+She heard Tom laughing in his room. She wondered what he was doing. She opened the door and peeked. She saw Tom playing with a toy train. He had made a track with books and boxes. He was having fun.
+
+"Tom, can I play with you?" Sara asked. Tom looked at her. He remembered how she had been mean to him. He felt like saying no. But he also felt sorry for her. He decided to be nice.
+
+"Okay, you can play with me," Tom said. "But you have to show me your puzzle first. Maybe I can help you finish it." Sara smiled. She was glad Tom was not stubborn like her. She ran to her room and brought the puzzle box. She and Tom went to the living room and spread the pieces on the floor. They worked together and searched for the right ones. They had fun and finished the puzzle. They hugged and thanked each other.
+
+Mom saw them and smiled. She was proud of them. She had given them the puzzle on purpose. She wanted them to learn to share and cooperate. She knew they were stubborn, but she also knew they loved each other. She hoped they would always play nicely.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they found a big bag of mints on a bench. They were very happy and took some mints to eat.
+
+"Yum, these are sweet and cool," Lily said.
+
+"I like them too," Tom said. "Can I have one more?"
+
+"Sure, here you go," Lily said and gave him a mint.
+
+They smiled at each other and leaned in to kiss. But they were clumsy and bumped their noses. They both said "ouch" and rubbed their noses.
+
+They laughed and hugged. They did not mind the bump. They still liked each other and the mints. They shared the rest of the mints with their toys and had a fun day in the park.
+Lily liked to draw with her crayons. She had many colors and she made pictures of her family, her dog, and her toys. She was very happy when she drew.
+
+One day, she found a new crayon in her box. It was shiny and silver. She wanted to try it. She took a big paper and started to draw a star. But the crayon did not make a mark. She tried harder, but nothing happened. She was sad and confused.
+
+She looked at the crayon and saw a button. She pushed it and something amazing happened. A long, thin beam of light came out of the crayon. It was like a magic wand. She waved it in the air and saw the light make shapes and lines. She was very surprised and excited.
+
+She pointed the crayon at the paper and saw the light make a mark. It was a star, just like she wanted. She smiled and clapped. She made more stars and other things with the light. She had a lot of fun.
+
+She showed her mom and dad what she did. They were very proud and happy. They told her the crayon was a special gift from her aunt. It was a laser pointer. They said she could use it to draw, but only on paper and not on people or animals. They also said she had to be careful and not look at the light. Lily nodded and said thank you. She hugged her crayon and her parents. She loved her new toy.
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, it was very cold and windy. Lily and Ben wore hats and coats, but they still felt cold.
+
+"Let's go on the slide!" Ben said. "It will be fun!"
+
+"OK!" Lily said. They ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. The slide was metal and shiny. It was also very slippery.
+
+Ben went first. He slid down fast and laughed. "Whee!" he said. "That was cool!"
+
+Lily smiled and followed him. She slid down too, but she did not laugh. She screamed. The slide was too cold and it hurt her skin. She landed on the ground and cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she said. "My legs are red and sore!"
+
+Ben ran to her and looked at her legs. They had frostbite. He felt sorry for her. He tried to hug her and make her feel better.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," he said. "I did not know the slide was so cold. Are you OK?"
+
+Lily shivered and shook her head. She was not OK. She was in pain and scared. She wanted her mom.
+
+"Help!" she said. "I want my mom!"
+
+Ben did not know what to do. He was not clever. He did not have a phone or a car. He did not know where Lily's mom was. He looked around and saw no one. They were alone in the park.
+
+He felt cold and scared too. He wished they had not gone on the slide. He wished they had stayed on the stand and watched the birds. He wished they had listened to their moms and stayed home.
+
+But it was too late. They had made a bad choice. And now they had to pay for it.
+Anna loved to draw with her crayons. She had many colors and she made pictures of her family, her friends, and her toys. She was gifted at drawing and her mom and dad always praised her.
+
+One day, Anna wanted to draw a tea party. She had a toy tea set and she invited her teddy bear and her doll to join her. She set up the table and the cups and the pot. Then she took her crayons and a big paper and started to draw.
+
+She drew a circle for the table, and four smaller circles for the cups. She drew a rectangle for the pot, and a triangle for the spout. She drew her teddy bear and her doll sitting on the chairs. She drew herself smiling and holding a cup. She was happy with her drawing.
+
+She showed her drawing to her mom, who was in the kitchen. "Look, mom, I drew a tea party!" she said proudly.
+
+Mom looked at the drawing and smiled. "That's a very nice tea party, Anna. You are very gifted at drawing. Can I join your tea party too?" she asked.
+
+Anna nodded and ran to her room. She brought another chair and another cup for mom. She poured some water from the pot and pretended it was tea. She gave mom a cup and said, "Here, mom, this is tea. It is very yummy. Do you like it?"
+
+Mom took a sip and pretended to enjoy it. She rubbed her tummy and said, "Mmm, this is the best tea ever. Thank you, Anna. You are a very good hostess. And a very gifted artist." She hugged Anna and kissed her cheek.
+
+Anna felt happy and warm. She hugged mom back and said, "I love you, mom. And I love drawing. And I love tea parties."
+Ben and Mia like to play with their toy rocket. They pretend it can fly to different planets and have fun adventures. One day, they find a new planet in their book. It is very big and blue and has rings around it. They want to go there with their rocket.
+
+But there is a problem. They only have one rocket and they both want to be the pilot. Ben says he is older and smarter and he should fly the rocket. Mia says she is faster and braver and she should fly the rocket. They start to argue and shout. They pull the rocket from each other and make it fall on the floor.
+
+The rocket breaks into two pieces. Ben and Mia are very sad and angry. They blame each other for breaking their toy. They kick the pieces of the rocket and the book. They do not want to play together anymore.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the broken rocket and the book and the unhappy children. She is not happy either. She tells Ben and Mia to stop kicking and to say sorry to each other. She says they should share their toys and their planets and be kind and gentle.
+
+Ben and Mia feel sorry for what they did. They say sorry to each other and to Mom. They hug and make up. Mom helps them fix the rocket with some tape and glue. She reads them the story of the big blue planet with the rings. They listen and learn and ask questions. They decide to take turns flying the rocket and to explore the planet together. They are happy again and play quietly.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a big bucket of water and some cups. They pretend to make tea and soup with the water and the flowers.
+
+"Here, Tom, have some tea," Lily says. She pours some water into a cup and gives it to Tom.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Tom says. He pretends to drink the tea and makes a funny face. "Mmm, this tea is very good."
+
+They laugh and play some more. Then Tom has an idea. He fills his cup with water and splashes it on Lily. Lily gets wet and angry.
+
+"Hey, Tom, that's not fair!" Lily shouts. She fills her cup with water and splashes it back on Tom. Tom gets wet and angry too.
+
+They start to splash each other with water. They make a big mess in the garden. They do not hear their mom calling them.
+
+"Tom! Lily! Come inside now!" their mom says. She sees them wet and dirty. She is not happy. "What are you doing? You are wasting water and making a mess. You are in trouble. You need to be punished."
+
+Tom and Lily feel sorry. They did not mean to make their mom angry. They follow their mom inside. Their mom tells them to sit on the sofa and think about what they did. They are not allowed to play or watch TV for an hour.
+
+Tom and Lily sit on the sofa. They are bored and sad. They look at each other.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom says. "I should not have splashed you with water. It was not fair."
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily says. "I should not have splashed you back. It was not fair either."
+
+They hug and say they are sorry to their mom too. Their mom smiles and hugs them back. She tells them they are good kids and she loves them. She says they can play again after they clean up the garden and save some water. Tom and Lily agree. They learn their lesson. They do not splash each other with water anymore. They play nicely and fairly.
+Lily and Max were hungry. They wanted to eat some soup. Mom said soup was good for them. She gave them each a bowl and a spoon.
+
+Lily liked her spoon. It was orange, like a carrot. She hoped her soup was tasty. She blew on it to make it cool. Then she put some in her mouth. Yum! It was chicken and noodle soup. She smiled at Mom.
+
+Max did not like his spoon. It was blue, like the sky. He hoped his soup was not yucky. He looked at it and frowned. It was green and lumpy. He thought it was pea and ham soup. He did not like peas or ham. He pushed his bowl away.
+
+"Max, what's wrong?" Mom asked. "Don't you want your soup?"
+
+"No, thank you," Max said. "I don't like this soup. Can I have some of Lily's soup?"
+
+Mom shook her head. "No, Max. You have to eat your own soup. It's good for you. It has vitamins and protein. And it's not pea and ham soup. It's broccoli and cheese soup. You like cheese, don't you?"
+
+Max looked at his soup again. He saw some melted cheese on top. He liked cheese. He decided to try his soup. He scooped some with his spoon. He blew on it to make it cool. Then he put some in his mouth. Mmm! It was not so bad. It was creamy and cheesy. He smiled at Mom.
+
+"See, Max? It's not so bad. You can eat your soup with your blue spoon. And Lily can eat her soup with her orange spoon. And then you can both have some cookies for dessert. How does that sound?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They liked cookies. They ate their soup with their spoons. They hoped the cookies were chocolate chip. They were happy.
+Sam and Mia love to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They like to make them speed on the floor and pretend they are racing.
+
+One day, they decide to have a big race with all their cars. They line them up on the floor and get ready to push them. Sam says, "Are you ready, Mia? On your mark, get set, go!"
+
+They push their cars as hard as they can and watch them speed across the floor. Some cars go faster than others. Some cars bump into each other. Some cars flip over. Sam and Mia cheer and laugh as they see their cars race.
+
+But then, one of Sam's cars hits Mia's favorite car. It is a pink car with a heart on it. Mia loves that car very much. The car flies off the floor and hits the wall. It breaks into two pieces. Mia sees her broken car and starts to cry.
+
+Sam feels bad. He did not mean to break Mia's car. He says, "I'm sorry, Mia. I did not want to hurt your car. It was an accident. Please don't cry."
+
+He picks up the two pieces of the car and brings them to Mia. He says, "Maybe we can fix it. Maybe we can glue it together. Or maybe we can find another car like it. I will help you, Mia. I love you, Mia."
+
+Mia stops crying and looks at Sam. She sees that he is sorry and that he loves her. She says, "Thank you, Sam. I love you, too. You are a good brother. It's okay. It was an accident. Maybe we can fix it. Or maybe we can play with another car."
+
+She hugs Sam and he hugs her back. They feel calm and happy. They put their cars away and decide to play with something else. They love to play with cars, but they love each other more.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big tree with red and yellow fruits. Mom said they were apples and they could pick some. Lily and Ben ran to the tree and each took an apple.
+
+They bit into their apples and made a face. The apples were bitter, not sweet. They did not like them at all. They wanted to spit them out.
+
+"Yuck, these apples are bad!" Lily said.
+
+"Me too, they hurt my nose!" Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "These are not apples, they are crab apples. They are not for eating, they are for making jam. They have a lot of pectin, which makes the jam thick and sticky. But they are very bitter and sour, so you have to add sugar and cook them."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the crab apples and wondered how they could become jam. They wanted to try some jam, but they did not want to eat any more crab apples.
+
+"Can we have some real apples, please?" they asked Mom.
+
+"Of course, my loves. Let's go to the market and buy some sweet and juicy apples. But first, you have to resist the temptation to pick any more crab apples. They are not good for your teeth and your tummy."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and threw away their crab apples. They followed Mom to the market, where they saw many kinds of fruits and vegetables. They chose some red and green apples and thanked Mom for buying them. They washed their apples and took a big bite. They smiled and said, "Mmm, these apples are good!"
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big pine tree with many green needles. They wanted to make a nest under the tree.
+
+"Let's find some sticks and leaves," Ben said. "We can set them on the ground and make a cozy nest."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "I will look for sticks and you look for leaves."
+
+They ran around the park and collected many sticks and leaves. They brought them to the pine tree and set them on the ground. They arranged them in a circle and made a soft bed inside.
+
+"Look, we made a nest!" Ben said. "It is like a bird's nest, but bigger."
+
+"It is very nice," Lily said. "Can we pretend to be birds and sleep in the nest?"
+
+"Sure," Ben said. "But we have to be honest birds. We can't take anything that is not ours."
+
+"Why not?" Lily asked.
+
+"Because that is not nice," Ben said. "We have to share and be kind to other animals and people."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "I will be an honest bird. And you will be an honest bird too."
+
+They crawled into the nest and snuggled together. They closed their eyes and made soft bird sounds. They felt happy and warm under the pine tree.
+Lily was a little squirrel who lived in a big tree with her mama and papa. She liked to play with her friends, find nuts and seeds, and jump from branch to branch. But sometimes, she got very tired and wanted to sleep.
+
+One day, she was playing with her friend Ben, a brown rabbit, when she felt a big yawn coming. She opened her mouth wide and stretched her arms. "I'm sleepy, Ben," she said. "Can we go home?"
+
+Ben nodded. He was sleepy too. They said goodbye to their other friends and hopped and ran to their homes. Lily saw her mama waiting for her at the door of their nest. She gave her a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Did you have fun, Lily?" her mama asked.
+
+"Yes, mama, but I'm very sleepy now," Lily said.
+
+"Me too, Lily. Let's go inside and have a snack before we nap," her mama said.
+
+They went inside and saw a bowl of nuts and berries on the table. Lily picked a nut and bit into it. It was dry and hard. She made a face and spat it out.
+
+"Yuck, mama, this nut is dry. I don't like it," she said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. It's an old nut. Here, have a fresh one. It's juicy and sweet," her mama said, handing her another nut.
+
+Lily tried the new nut and smiled. It was juicy and sweet. She ate it and thanked her mama. Then she drank some water and cuddled with her mama on their soft bed.
+
+"Good night, mama," she said.
+
+"Good night, Lily. I love you," her mama said.
+
+They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of nuts and berries and friends and fun.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big box in the living room. It had a sticker that said "For Mom and Dad". They were curious and wanted to see what was inside.
+
+They opened the box and saw a lot of papers and books. They did not look fun at all. They saw a word that they knew: lawyer. They remembered that their dad was a lawyer. He helped people with problems and got money for it. They wondered if the box was for his work.
+
+They decided to play with the papers and books. They made hats and planes and boats out of them. They drew pictures and wrote their names on them. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, their mom came home. She saw the mess and was very angry. She screamed at them and said they had ruined something very important. She said the box was a gift from a brilliant lawyer who had helped their dad win a big case. She said the papers and books were very rare and valuable. She said they had to pay a lot of money to fix them.
+
+Tom and Lily were scared and sorry. They did not know they had done something bad. They said they were sorry and hugged their mom. They asked her to forgive them.
+
+Their mom was still angry, but she loved them. She said she forgave them, but they had to learn to respect other people's things. She said they had to help her clean up the mess and apologize to their dad and the brilliant lawyer. She said they had to promise to never do it again.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and said they promised. They helped their mom clean up the mess and waited for their dad to come home. They hoped he would not be too mad at them. They learned their lesson and never played with the lawyer's box again.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play at the beach. They both loved to build sand castles, but they were very competitive. They always wanted to make the biggest and best castle, and they did not like to share their tools or help each other.
+
+One day, they decided to have a contest to see who could build the most beautiful sand castle in one hour. They each picked a spot on the sand and started to work. They used buckets, shovels, molds, and shells to make their castles. They did not talk to each other or look at what the other was doing.
+
+After an hour, they finished their castles and stood back to admire them. They both thought their castle was the best, and they waited for their mom to come and judge them. But then, they heard a loud roar and saw a big wave coming towards them. They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a towel, and watched as the wave washed away their castles.
+
+"Oh no, our castles!" Ben and Lily cried. They felt sad and angry that their hard work was gone.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I'm sorry, sweeties. Sometimes the sea can be unpredictable. But you know what? I saw both of your castles, and they were both very beautiful. You are both very talented and creative. But you know what else? You would have had more fun if you had worked together and shared your tools and ideas. Then you could have made one big castle, or two castles that were friends. And you could have enjoyed each other's company, instead of being so competitive."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other and felt ashamed. They realized that mom was right. They had wasted their time and energy on being rivals, instead of being friends. They said sorry to each other and hugged.
+
+"Can we try again, mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course, honey. But this time, why don't you work together and have fun?" Mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and smiled. They ran back to the sand and started to build a new castle. They shared their tools and ideas, and they complimented each other's work. They made a big castle with two towers, a bridge, and a moat. They decorated it with shells and seaweed. They also made a flag with their names on it. They were very proud of their castle, and they had a lot of fun.
+
+Mom came to see their castle and said, "Wow, this is amazing! You two did a great job. I'm so proud of you. You see, when you work together and help each other, you can do wonderful things. And you can also be happier and closer as siblings."
+
+Ben and Lily hugged mom and said, "Thank you, mom. We love you. And we love each other. And we love our castle."
+
+They played with their castle until it was time to go home. They did not mind when the sea took their castle away, because they knew they could always make another one. And they knew they had something more important than sand castles: each other.
+Sara liked to read books. She had many books in her white bookcase. She liked to pick a book and sit on her bed. She liked to look at the pictures and say the words.
+
+One night, Sara wanted to read a new book. She went to her bookcase and looked for a book she had not read before. She saw a book with a big black cat on the cover. She liked cats. She took the book and went to her bed.
+
+She opened the book and saw more pictures of the black cat. The cat had yellow eyes and sharp teeth. The cat did not look nice. The cat looked mean. Sara felt scared. She wanted to stop reading the book.
+
+She tried to close the book, but the book did not close. The book was stuck. Sara tried harder, but the book did not move. She heard a loud noise. She looked at the bookcase. The bookcase was shaking. The books were falling. Sara screamed.
+
+"Mama! Mama! Help me!"
+
+Mama heard Sara scream. She ran to Sara's room. She saw the bookcase falling. She saw the book in Sara's hand. She grabbed Sara and moved her away from the bookcase. The bookcase crashed on the floor. The books were everywhere.
+
+"Sara, are you okay?" Mama asked.
+
+Sara nodded. She was scared, but she was not hurt. She hugged Mama.
+
+"Mama, I don't like this book. It's a bad book. It scared me. It made the bookcase fall." Sara said.
+
+Mama looked at the book. She saw the black cat on the cover. She remembered the book. It was a book she had read when she was a little girl. It was a book about magic and spells. It was a book that could do things.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara. I didn't know you had this book. I should have put it away. It's not a book for you. It's a book for grown-ups. It's a book that can scare people." Mama said.
+
+Mama took the book from Sara's hand. She closed the book. The book closed. She put the book in a drawer. She locked the drawer.
+
+"Let's find another book for you. A book that you like. A book that makes you happy." Mama said.
+
+Sara smiled. She liked Mama. She liked books. She did not like the black cat book. She did not want to read it again. She wanted to read a book with a nice cat. A cat that was white.
+Tim and Kim like to play with toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big ship. The ship is red and blue and has wheels and a horn. They can push the ship on the floor and make it go fast. They can also make the horn beep and pretend they are sailors.
+
+One day, Tim and Kim want to show their ship to their friend Sam. Sam lives next door and he likes to play with them. They take their ship outside and knock on Sam's door. Sam comes out and sees the ship. He says, "Wow, what a nice ship! Can I play with it?"
+
+Tim and Kim say, "Yes, you can play with it. But you have to be careful. The ship is not easy to break, but it is not easy to fix either. We love our ship very much and we don't want it to get hurt."
+
+Sam says, "OK, I will be careful. Thank you for letting me play with it." He takes the ship and starts to push it on the sidewalk. He makes the horn beep and pretends he is a sailor too. He has fun with the ship.
+
+But then, Sam sees a big hill. He thinks, "I wonder how fast the ship can go down the hill. That would be fun." He does not ask Tim and Kim if he can do that. He does not think about what might happen. He just runs to the hill and pushes the ship down.
+
+The ship goes very fast down the hill. It goes too fast. It hits a rock and flips over. It breaks into many pieces. The horn stops beeping. The wheels fall off. The ship is ruined.
+
+Tim and Kim see what happens. They run to the hill and see their ship. They are very sad and angry. They cry and yell at Sam. They say, "You broke our ship! You did not listen to us! You did not be careful! You are a bad friend!"
+
+Sam feels sorry and scared. He says, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break your ship. I just wanted to have fun. Please don't be mad at me. Please forgive me."
+
+But Tim and Kim do not forgive him. They do not want to play with him anymore. They take their ship and go home. They try to fix their ship, but they can't. They miss their ship and they miss their friend. But they are too proud and hurt to say so.
+
+The end.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to go to the park with Mom. Mom says they can ride the bus today. Sara and Tom are happy. They run to the bus stop and wait.
+
+The bus comes. It is big and yellow. Mom pays the driver and they get on. Sara and Tom sit by the window. They see cars and trees and people. They wave and smile. They have fun.
+
+The bus stops at the park. Mom says they can get off. Sara and Tom jump off the bus. They run to the swings and the slide. They play and laugh. They are not tired.
+
+Mom says it is time to go. Sara and Tom are sad. They want to stay. Mom says they can come back another day. Sara and Tom follow Mom to the bus stop. They wait for the bus.
+
+The bus comes. It is big and yellow. Mom holds Sara and Tom's hands. They cross the street. But a car does not stop. It is fast and loud. It hits Mom and Sara and Tom. They fall down. They do not get up. They do not blink. They are gone. The bus driver and the people scream and cry. The car driver runs away. It is a bad day.
+Sam liked to speak to his neighbor, Max. Max was a big dog with black fur and a loud bark. Sam would go to the fence and say, "Hi, Max! Do you want to play?" Max would wag his tail and lick Sam's hand.
+
+One day, Sam saw Max in his yard. He was happy and ran to him. He did not see the hole in the fence. He did not hear his mom say, "Sam, stop! Max is not friendly today!" He did not see Max's teeth and ears.
+
+Sam reached out to hug Max, but Max did not want a hug. Max was angry and scared. He bit Sam's arm hard. Sam screamed and cried. Max ran away. Sam's mom came and picked him up. She wrapped his arm with a cloth and took him to the car. She said, "We have to go to the doctor, Sam. Max hurt you. You have to be careful with dogs, Sam. They are not always nice."
+
+Sam was sad and hurt. He did not understand why Max bit him. He did not want to speak to Max anymore. He did not like Max anymore. He did not like black dogs anymore.
+Sara and Ben were poor. They lived in a small house with their mom and dad. They did not have many toys or clothes. They liked to play outside and look for shiny things.
+
+One day, they found a big copper key in the grass. It was heavy and old. They wondered what it could unlock.
+
+"Maybe it opens a treasure chest!" Ben said.
+
+"Or a magic door!" Sara said.
+
+They ran around the yard, trying the key on different things. But nothing fit. They were sad.
+
+Then they saw a rusty old car in the corner. It had no wheels or windows. It looked like a big metal box.
+
+"Let's try the key on the car!" Sara said.
+
+They ran to the car and put the key in the lock. It turned with a click. They opened the door and looked inside.
+
+They saw a lot of shiny things. There were coins and jewels and watches and rings. They sparkled in the sun.
+
+"Wow!" Ben said. "It is a treasure chest!"
+
+"Maybe someone left it here a long time ago!" Sara said.
+
+They were very happy. They took some of the shiny things and put them in their pockets. They decided to share them with their mom and dad.
+
+They closed the door and locked it again. They hid the key under a rock. They ran back to their house, smiling and laughing.
+
+They had found a secret treasure. They were not poor anymore.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They saw a big maze made of hedges. They wanted to go inside and find the way out.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Max said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK, Max!" Lily said. "But we have to be careful. We don't want to get lost."
+
+They ran to the entrance of the maze and started to explore. They turned left and right, following the paths. They saw flowers and birds and bugs. They laughed and talked.
+
+But after a while, they realized they did not know where they were. They could not see the exit. They could not see the park. They could not see their mom and dad.
+
+"Max, I'm scared," Lily said. "We are lost in the maze. How can we get out?"
+
+"I don't know, Lily," Max said. "I'm scared too. And I'm tired. My legs hurt."
+
+They hugged each other and cried. They wished they had not gone into the maze. They wished they had stayed with their mom and dad.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was their mom. She was calling their names.
+
+"Lily! Max! Where are you? We are looking for you!"
+
+"Mom! Mom! We are here!" Lily and Max shouted. "We are in the maze! We can't find the way out!"
+
+"Stay where you are!" their mom said. "We are coming to get you!"
+
+Lily and Max felt happy. They knew their mom and dad would find them. They knew they would be safe. They knew they would never go into the maze again.
+Sam and Mia like to play with blocks. They build towers and bridges and castles. They make sounds with their mouths, like cars and planes and dragons.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their mom. They see a big pile of sand. They want to build something with the sand. They take their buckets and shovels and start to dig and pile.
+
+"Look, Mia, I build a mountain!" Sam says, proud of his sand hill.
+
+"I build a tunnel!" Mia says, making a hole under her sand hill.
+
+They play and laugh and have fun. But then, a big dog comes. The dog runs to the sand pile. He barks and jumps and digs. He knocks down Sam's mountain and Mia's tunnel. He makes a big mess.
+
+Sam and Mia are sad and angry. They yell at the dog. "Go away, dog! You ruin our sand build!"
+
+The dog's owner comes. He is a nice man. He says sorry to Sam and Mia. He says the dog is just playful. He says he will help them build again.
+
+Sam and Mia are still sad, but they are also embarrassed. They know they should not yell at the dog. They say sorry to the dog and the man. They say they will share the sand with the dog.
+
+The dog wags his tail. He likes Sam and Mia. He licks their faces. He makes a happy sound.
+
+Sam and Mia smile. They are not sad or angry or embarrassed anymore. They are friends with the dog. They build together. They make sounds with their mouths, like cars and planes and dragons. And the dog joins in, with his barks and howls. They have fun.
+Sara and Tom were very excited. They were going to the theater with their mom and dad. They had never been to the theater before. They wanted to see the show with the animals and the songs.
+
+They got in the car and drove to the theater. They saw a big sign with the name of the show. They got out of the car and walked to the door. They gave their tickets to a nice lady. She smiled and said, "Enjoy the show!"
+
+They went inside and found their seats. They saw a big stage with curtains and lights. They saw many people sitting and waiting. They heard music playing. They felt happy and curious.
+
+The lights went down and the curtains opened. The show started. They saw people dressed as animals. They saw a lion, a zebra, a giraffe, a monkey, and more. They heard them sing and dance. They saw them tell a story. The story was about how the animals learned to share and be friends. Sara and Tom liked the story. They clapped and laughed.
+
+At the end of the show, the animals came to the front of the stage. They bowed and thanked the people. They said, "We hope you liked our show. We hope you learned something too. Remember to share and be friends with everyone. That is the best part of life!" Sara and Tom nodded and cheered. They agreed with the animals. They hugged their mom and dad. They said, "We loved the show. We learned a lot. Thank you for taking us to the theater!"
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play games. Today they play a game with a quiz. Lily has a book with many questions. Tom has to answer them.
+
+Lily asks, "What is the color of the sky?"
+
+Tom says, "Blue."
+
+Lily says, "Good. Now turn the page. What is the name of this animal?" She shows him a picture of a cat.
+
+Tom says, "Cat."
+
+Lily says, "Right. Turn the page again. What is this?" She points to a shape.
+
+Tom says, "Circle."
+
+Lily says, "No, it is a ball. A circle is flat. A ball is round."
+
+Tom says, "Oh, I see. Sorry."
+
+Lily says, "It's okay. Turn the page one more time. This is the last question. What is hidden under the blanket?"
+
+Tom looks at the blanket. He does not know. He says, "I don't know. Can I look?"
+
+Lily says, "No, you have to guess. It is something soft and fluffy. It makes a sound. It likes to play with you."
+
+Tom thinks hard. He says, "Is it a toy?"
+
+Lily says, "No, it is not a toy. It is alive. It is your friend."
+
+Tom says, "Is it a dog?"
+
+Lily says, "No, it is not a dog. It is smaller than a dog. It has long ears and a tail. It likes to hop."
+
+Tom says, "Is it a bunny?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, it is a bunny. You are right. You win the quiz. You can look now."
+
+Tom turns the blanket. He sees a white bunny. It wiggles its nose and makes a noise. It hops to Tom and licks his face. Tom laughs and hugs the bunny. He says, "Thank you, Lily. This is the best quiz ever. I love the bunny. Can we play with it?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, we can. The bunny is mine, but I will share it with you. We can be friends with the bunny. It is very cute and fun."
+
+Tom and Lily play with the bunny. They are happy. They are good friends. The end.
+Lily liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to learn how to cook. One day, her mom gave her a small pan and some eggs. She said, "You can make scrambled eggs for us. I will show you how."
+
+Lily was happy. She cracked the eggs and put them in the pan. Her mom turned on the stove and said, "Now you have to stir the eggs with a spoon. Don't let them stick to the pan." Lily tried to stir the eggs, but they were too fast. They jumped and splashed in the pan. Lily was scared. She said, "Mom, I can't do it. The eggs are too hot and messy."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lily. You are doing great. You just need to practice. I will help you." She took the spoon and stirred the eggs with Lily. She said, "See, you have to move the spoon like this. Slow and steady. Then the eggs will be soft and fluffy." She encouraged Lily to keep trying.
+
+Lily watched her mom and copied her. She felt the eggs become smoother and lighter. She said, "Mom, I did it! I made scrambled eggs!" Her mom said, "Yes, you did! You are a good cook, Lily. I am proud of you." She turned off the stove and put the eggs on a plate. She said, "Let's eat. You can have the first bite."
+
+Lily was happy. She tasted the eggs and said, "Mmm, they are yummy. Thank you, mom, for teaching me." Her mom said, "You're welcome, Lily. Thank you for helping me. You are a good helper." They hugged and ate the eggs together. Lily was not troubled anymore. She was glad. She wanted to learn more things from her mom.
+Tom and Anna liked to go to the zoo with their mom and dad. They liked to see the animals and hear their sounds. They liked the lions, the monkeys, the elephants, and the penguins. But their favorite animal was the giraffe. The giraffe was very tall and had a long neck and spots.
+
+One day, when they went to the zoo, they saw a sign that said: "New baby giraffe born today!" They were very happy and ran to the giraffe house. They wanted to see the baby giraffe and say hello.
+
+But when they got there, they saw that the door was locked. There was a big padlock on the door and a sign that said: "Do not enter. Giraffe family needs rest." Tom and Anna were very sad. They wanted to see the baby giraffe so much.
+
+They saw a zookeeper nearby. He was wearing a hat and a shirt with the zoo logo. He had a bunch of keys in his hand. Tom and Anna went to him and asked: "Please, can we see the baby giraffe? We love giraffes. They are our favorite animal."
+
+The zookeeper smiled and said: "I'm sorry, kids, but the giraffe house is closed for now. The baby giraffe is very small and needs to stay with his mom and dad. They need some quiet time and some privacy. Maybe you can come back another day and see them."
+
+Tom and Anna felt very disappointed. They said: "But we came all the way to the zoo to see the baby giraffe. We don't want to wait. We want to see him now. Please, please, please, can you unlock the door for us? Just for a little bit?"
+
+The zookeeper shook his head and said: "No, kids, I can't do that. It's against the rules. And it's not good for the giraffes. They might get scared or angry if we disturb them. You have to respect the animals and their needs. You can see the other animals in the zoo. There are many of them and they are all very interesting and beautiful."
+
+Tom and Anna realized that the zookeeper was right. They said: "OK, we understand. We're sorry for asking. We will come back another day and see the baby giraffe. We hope he grows up big and strong and happy. Thank you for taking care of him and his family."
+
+The zookeeper said: "You're welcome, kids. You are very kind and polite. I'm sure the giraffes will appreciate your visit when they are ready. Have a nice day and enjoy the zoo."
+
+Tom and Anna said: "Bye, zookeeper. Have a nice day too." They waved to him and walked away. They decided to go and see the penguins next. They still liked the giraffes the most, but they also liked the penguins. They were funny and cute and they slid on the ice. Tom and Anna had a lot of fun at the zoo. They were successful in seeing many animals and learning about them. They were happy.
+Tom and Anna like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big rhinoceros. The rhinoceros is gray and has a horn on his nose. He is very soft and cuddly.
+
+One day, Tom and Anna decide to make a zoo with their toys. They put the rhinoceros in a big box and give him some grass to eat. They also put other animals in different boxes, like a lion, a monkey, a giraffe, and a turtle. They are very organized and make signs for each box.
+
+"Look at our zoo!" Tom says. "We have so many animals!"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Anna says. "But do you know what they say?"
+
+Tom shakes his head. He does not know what the animals say.
+
+"Let's ask them!" Anna says. She goes to the box with the rhinoceros and says, "Hello, Mr. Rhinoceros. How are you today?"
+
+The rhinoceros does not say anything. He just looks at Anna with his big eyes.
+
+"Maybe he is shy," Tom says. He goes to the box with the lion and says, "Hello, Mr. Lion. How are you today?"
+
+The lion does not say anything. He just yawns and stretches.
+
+"Maybe he is sleepy," Anna says. She goes to the box with the monkey and says, "Hello, Mr. Monkey. How are you today?"
+
+The monkey does not say anything. He just jumps and swings.
+
+"Maybe he is busy," Tom says. He goes to the box with the giraffe and says, "Hello, Mr. Giraffe. How are you today?"
+
+The giraffe does not say anything. He just nibbles on some leaves.
+
+"Maybe he is hungry," Anna says. She goes to the box with the turtle and says, "Hello, Mr. Turtle. How are you today?"
+
+The turtle does not say anything. He just hides in his shell.
+
+"Maybe he is scared," Tom says.
+
+Tom and Anna look at each other. They are sad. They want their animals to speak to them.
+
+"Maybe they don't like us," Anna says.
+
+"Maybe they don't like the zoo," Tom says.
+
+They think for a moment. Then they have an idea.
+
+"Let's take them out of the boxes!" Anna says.
+
+"Let's let them play with us!" Tom says.
+
+They open the boxes and take out the animals. They hug them and pet them and talk to them. They make them laugh and dance and sing.
+
+The animals are happy. They start to make noises. The rhinoceros snorts, the lion roars, the monkey chatters, the giraffe hums, and the turtle squeaks.
+
+"Look, they are speaking!" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, they are!" Anna says.
+
+Tom and Anna are happy. They have made new friends.
+
+The end.
+Anna and Ben were helping mom and dad to decorate the tree for Christmas. They had a big box of ornaments that they could hang on the branches. Anna liked the shiny ones that looked like stars and balls. Ben liked the funny ones that looked like animals and toys.
+
+"Look, Anna, this one is a bear with a hat!" Ben said, holding up a brown ornament.
+
+"That's cute, Ben. Can I see?" Anna asked, reaching for the ornament.
+
+Ben gave it to her and she looked at it closely. She noticed that the bear had one ear that was different from the other. It was smaller and had a hole in it.
+
+"Ben, this bear has a different ear. Did you know that?" Anna asked, showing him the ornament.
+
+Ben nodded. "Yes, I know. That's my special bear. I made it with grandma last year. She helped me glue the ear back when it broke. She said it was okay to be different. She said it made the bear more special."
+
+Anna smiled. She liked grandma. She was very nice and always told them stories. She gave the ornament back to Ben.
+
+"Can I hang it on the tree?" Ben asked, looking at mom and dad.
+
+"Of course, honey. You can hang it wherever you want. It's your special bear." Mom said, smiling.
+
+Ben found a good spot for the bear on the tree. He hung it next to a shiny star that Anna had hung. He was happy. He liked his special bear. He liked his sister. He liked Christmas.
+Ben liked to watch videos on his mom's phone. He liked to see animals, cars, and songs. But mom said he could only watch for a little time. She said he had to play with his toys, read his books, and go outside too.
+
+One day, Ben was very persistent. He asked mom for the phone again and again. He said, "Please, mom, can I watch one more video? Just one more, please!" Mom said, "No, Ben, you have watched enough videos today. You need to do something else. How about you draw a picture for me?"
+
+But Ben did not want to draw a picture. He wanted to watch another video. He cried and whined and stomped his feet. He said, "No, no, no, I want the phone, I want the phone!" Mom was not happy. She said, "Ben, stop that right now. You are being very rude and naughty. If you don't listen to me, you will not watch any videos tomorrow. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben did not like that. He did not want to miss his videos tomorrow. He knew mom was serious. He stopped crying and whining and stomping his feet. He said, "Sorry, mom, I understand. I will do something else. Can I play with my blocks?"
+
+Mom smiled and hugged him. She said, "Yes, you can play with your blocks. That's a good idea. And maybe later, we can watch a video together, okay?" Ben nodded and smiled. He said, "Okay, mom, thank you. I love you." He went to his room and played with his blocks. He was happy and mom was happy too.
+Lila and Remy were friends who liked to play in the jungle. They loved to swing on the vines and pretend they were monkeys. Lila was very graceful and could jump from vine to vine with ease. Remy was not so graceful and often fell or got tangled in the vines.
+
+One day, they found a new vine that was very long and thick. Lila wanted to try it first, but Remy said no. He said he was older and stronger and should go first. Lila did not like that. She said it was not fair and they should take turns. Remy did not listen. He grabbed the vine and swung away.
+
+Lila was angry and sad. She waited for Remy to come back, but he did not. She heard him laugh and shout as he swung farther and farther. She wondered if he would ever come back. She felt lonely and bored.
+
+She decided to look for another vine to play with. She walked along the jungle floor, looking up at the trees. She saw many vines, but they were too high or too thin or too short. She wished she had the new vine that Remy took.
+
+Then she saw something shiny and colorful on the ground. It was a necklace made of beads and feathers. It was very pretty and sparkled in the sun. Lila picked it up and put it around her neck. She felt happy and special. She wondered who left it there.
+
+She did not notice the snake that was hiding under the leaves. It was the snake's necklace, and it did not like that Lila took it. It was very angry and hissed. It slithered out of its hiding place and coiled around Lila's leg. Lila screamed and tried to shake it off, but it was too tight and strong.
+
+Remy heard Lila's scream and stopped swinging. He looked back and saw her in trouble. He felt sorry and scared. He let go of the vine and ran to help her. He grabbed a stick and hit the snake until it let go of Lila. He helped her stand up and hugged her. He said he was sorry for being mean and selfish. He said he would share the new vine with her. Lila said she was sorry for taking the snake's necklace. She said she would give it back. They both said they were glad they were friends.
+
+They walked back to the new vine, holding hands. They saw the snake slither away, taking its necklace with it. They did not mind. They had each other and the new vine to play with. They swung on the vine together, laughing and smiling. They were happy and graceful.
+Ben and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. Ben wanted to feed the ducks, so he took some bread from Mom. Lily wanted to see the fish, so she put on her cap and sunglasses.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" Lily said. "The fish are so pretty! They have wide mouths and shiny scales. Can I touch them?"
+
+Ben looked at Lily and shook his head. "No, Lily, no! You can't touch the fish. They are wild. They might bite you or swim away. You have to watch them from here."
+
+But Lily did not listen to Ben. She leaned over the edge of the pond and reached out her hand. She wanted to feel the fish. She was not afraid.
+
+Suddenly, a big fish jumped out of the water and splashed Lily in the face. Lily screamed and fell back. She dropped her cap and sunglasses in the pond. The fish took them and swam away.
+
+Ben ran to Lily and helped her up. He saw that she was wet and scared. He hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily, I'm sorry. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her eyes. She was okay, but she was sad. She lost her cap and sunglasses. She liked them very much.
+
+Mom came to Ben and Lily and saw what happened. She was not angry, but she was worried. She said, "Lily, you have to be careful. You can't touch the fish. They are not pets. They live in the pond. You have to respect them and their home."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Mom, I'm sorry. I won't touch the fish again. I learned my lesson."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's good, Lily, that's good. Come on, let's go home and get you dry. Maybe we can find you a new cap and sunglasses."
+
+Ben and Lily held Mom's hand and walked away. They said goodbye to the ducks and the fish. They hoped they would come back to the park another day.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. Anna sees a big hill and wants to climb it. She says to Ben, "Come on, let's go up the hill. It will be fun."
+
+Ben nods and follows Anna. They start to climb the hill. It is hard and steep. Anna holds on to the grass and the rocks. Ben stumbles and falls. He hurts his knee and cries. Anna hears him and runs back to him. She says, "Are you okay, Ben? Let me see your knee."
+
+Ben shows Anna his knee. It has a small cut and some blood. Anna says, "Don't worry, Ben. It is not bad. I have a band-aid in my pocket. I will put it on your knee. It will make it better."
+
+Anna takes out a band-aid and sticks it on Ben's knee. She says, "There, now you are fine. Do you want to climb the hill again?"
+
+Ben smiles and says, "Yes, I do. Thank you, Anna. You are a good friend. You are brave and kind."
+
+Anna and Ben hug and then climb the hill again. They reach the top and look at the park. They see the trees and the flowers and the birds. They see their mom and dad waving at them. They wave back and shout, "We did it! We climbed the hill!"
+
+Anna and Ben are proud of themselves. They are happy and they are friends. They like to play in the park.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play and joke with each other. One day, they found a big book with many images. They opened the book and saw pictures of animals, cars, and houses. They laughed and pointed at the images.
+
+"Look, Lily, this is a cow. It says moo!" Tom said.
+
+"Look, Tom, this is a car. It goes vroom!" Lily said.
+
+They turned the pages and saw more images. They saw an image of a big, scary lion. It had sharp teeth and claws. It looked angry and hungry.
+
+"Wow, Lily, this is a lion. It says roar!" Tom said.
+
+He had an idea. He wanted to joke with Lily. He hid the book behind his back and waited for Lily to look away. Then he put the book in front of her face and said "Roar!"
+
+Lily was very scared. She saw the lion and thought it was real. She screamed and ran away. She tripped and fell on the floor. She hurt her knee and started to cry.
+
+Tom was worried. He did not mean to scare Lily. He wanted to make her laugh. He ran to Lily and said "I'm sorry, Lily, it was a joke. It was not a real lion. It was an image in the book. Please don't cry."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She was too scared and hurt. She did not want to play with Tom anymore. She did not want to see the book anymore. She did not want to joke anymore. She was angry and sad.
+
+Tom felt bad. He had lost his friend. He had ruined their fun. He had made a big mistake. He wished he had never joked with Lily. He wished he had never seen the book. He wished he could make Lily happy again. But he could not. It was too late. The end.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. But today it is very cold. The wind blows and the snow falls.
+
+"Let's go inside and have some hot cocoa," Lily says. "It is too cold to play."
+
+"No, I want to play more," Ben says. "I like the snow. It is fun."
+
+Lily shakes her head. "No, Ben. It is not fun. It is cold. You will get sick. Come on, please."
+
+Ben does not listen. He runs away and makes a snowman. He puts a hat and a scarf on it. He thinks it is a friendly snowman.
+
+Lily is sad. She does not want to play alone. She walks to Ben and his snowman. She tries to smile.
+
+"Hello, snowman," she says. "You look nice. Can I play with you and Ben?"
+
+The snowman does not answer. It is just snow. But Ben hears Lily. He turns around and sees her.
+
+"Hi, Lily," he says. "Do you like my snowman? He is my new friend."
+
+Lily nods. "He is a nice snowman. But I miss you, Ben. You are my friend too. Can we play together?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He likes his snowman, but he likes Lily more. He does not want to make her sad.
+
+"Okay, Lily," he says. "We can play together. But can we play with the snowman too? He is lonely."
+
+Lily smiles. She is happy. She accepts Ben's snowman as a friend too. She hugs Ben and the snowman.
+
+"Of course we can," she says. "We can all be friends. And then we can go inside and have some hot cocoa. How does that sound?"
+
+Ben nods. He is happy too. He agrees with Lily. He hugs her and the snowman back.
+
+"That sounds great," he says. "Let's go."
+Anna and Ben were playing with their blocks. They liked to build tall towers and houses and bridges. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. Anna had more blocks than Ben, and Ben was envious. He wanted to have more blocks too.
+
+One day, Ben had an idea. He decided to hide some of Anna's blocks under his pillow. He thought Anna would not notice, and he could use them later. He took some red blocks, some blue blocks, some yellow blocks, and some green blocks. He put them under his pillow and smiled.
+
+But then, something happened. There was a loud noise and the floor shook. It was an earthquake! Anna and Ben were scared. They ran to their mom and dad, who hugged them and told them it was okay. The earthquake was over soon, but it made a big mess. The blocks fell down and scattered everywhere.
+
+Anna and Ben went back to their room to see their blocks. Anna saw that some of her blocks were missing. She looked around and saw them under Ben's pillow. She was angry. She pulled the pillow and revealed the blocks. She shouted at Ben, "These are my blocks! You took them! That's not nice!"
+
+Ben felt ashamed. He knew he did something wrong. He said sorry to Anna and gave her back the blocks. He said, "I was envious of your blocks. I wanted to have more too. But I should not have taken them. That was mean. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Anna was still mad, but she saw that Ben was sorry. She decided to forgive him. She said, "Thank you for saying sorry. I forgive you. But don't do that again. We can share the blocks. We can play together and have fun."
+
+Anna and Ben hugged and made up. They picked up the blocks and started to build again. They were happy. They learned to be honest and kind. They learned to not be envious. They learned to share.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big hill with many flowers. They wanted to go there and smell them.
+
+"Let's go to the hill, Lily!" Max said.
+
+"OK, Max!" Lily said.
+
+They ran to the hill and saw many colors. They saw red, yellow, pink and blue flowers. They smelled them and smiled. They saw a big purple flower. It was bigger than their heads. They wanted to smell it too.
+
+They went to the purple flower and bent down. They saw something move inside. They were curious. They looked closer. They saw a big nose, two eyes and a mouth. It was a face!
+
+"Hello, children!" the face said.
+
+Lily and Max were scared. They jumped back and screamed. They did not know what it was. It looked like a flower, but it talked like a person.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asked.
+
+"I am Fleur, the flower fairy. I live in this purple flower. It is my home. It is very warm and cozy. Do you want to see?" Fleur said.
+
+Lily and Max were still scared, but also curious. They liked fairies. They had seen them in books and movies. They wondered what Fleur's home looked like.
+
+"Can we see your home, Fleur?" Max asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. Come with me. I will show you. It is very fun and beautiful. You will like it." Fleur said.
+
+She smiled and waved her hand. A door appeared in the purple flower. It was small and round. Fleur invited Lily and Max to enter. They hesitated, but then decided to follow her. They wanted to see the flower fairy's home. They hoped it was nice and safe. They held hands and walked into the door.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big fly on a flower. The fly is black and shiny. It has wings and legs.
+
+"Look, a fly!" Lila says. "Can we catch it?"
+
+Ben shakes his head. "No, we can't. The fly is important. It helps the flower."
+
+Lila frowns. "How does it help the flower?"
+
+Ben points to the fly's head. "The fly has a nose. It smells the flower. It takes some dust from the flower. Then it goes to another flower. It gives the dust to the other flower. The flowers need the dust to make seeds and fruits."
+
+Lila nods. "Wow, the fly is smart. And kind. It shares the dust with the flowers."
+
+"Yes, it does. The fly is a good friend to the flowers. And we are good friends to the fly. We let it be. We do not hurt it or scare it."
+
+Lila and Ben smile. They watch the fly fly away. They wave to the fly. They say, "Bye, fly. Thank you for helping the flowers."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were builders and fix things with their tools. Lily had a hammer and Ben had a saw. They saw an old bench that was broken and dirty.
+
+"Let's restore the bench!" Lily said. "We can make it look new and pretty."
+
+"OK!" Ben said. "I will use my saw to cut the wood. You use your hammer to nail it."
+
+They worked hard and had fun. They cut and nailed and painted the bench. It looked much better than before.
+
+They were very proud of their work. They wanted to show it to their mom and dad. They ran inside the house to get them.
+
+But they did not see the enormous dog that was sleeping in the garden. The dog woke up and saw the bench. He thought it was a toy. He ran to the bench and bit it. He tore the wood and scratched the paint. He made a big mess.
+
+Lily and Ben came back with their mom and dad. They wanted to show them the bench. But when they saw what the dog had done, they were very sad and angry.
+
+"Bad dog!" Lily cried. "You ruined our bench!"
+
+"Bad dog!" Ben shouted. "You broke our saw!"
+
+Their mom and dad tried to comfort them. They said they were sorry and that they did a good job. But they could not restore the bench. It was too damaged. They had to throw it away.
+
+Lily and Ben learned a hard lesson. They should not leave their tools and projects in the garden. They should put them away in a safe place. They hoped the dog would not find their other toys.
+Lily and Max are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Lily wants to go on the slide. Max is scared.
+
+"Come on, Max. It is fun. You can watch me first," Lily says.
+
+She runs to the slide and climbs up. She sits on the top and smiles. She slides down very fast. She laughs.
+
+Max watches her. He thinks maybe he can try too. He walks to the slide and climbs up. He sits on the top and looks down. He feels dizzy.
+
+"Are you okay, Max?" Lily asks.
+
+"I don't know. It is too high. I want to go back," Max says.
+
+But he cannot go back. There are other kids behind him. They push him. He slides down very fast. He screams.
+
+He lands on the ground. He feels pain in his leg. He looks at his leg. It is purple and swollen. He cries.
+
+Lily runs to him. She sees his leg. She is scared.
+
+"Max, your leg is purple. It is bad. We need to get help," she says.
+
+She looks around. She does not see any grown-ups. She does not know what to do. She cries too.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. Lily found a big worm and put it in a jar. Ben found a shiny hook and put it in his pocket.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a hook!" Ben said. "I can catch a fish with it!"
+
+"No, Ben, that is not a good hook. It is sharp and can hurt you. Give it to me," Lily said.
+
+But Ben did not want to give the hook to Lily. He wanted to keep it for himself. He ran away from Lily and hid behind a bush.
+
+Lily was angry. She wanted the hook too. She followed Ben and tried to grab the hook from his pocket. But Ben was faster and crawled under the bush.
+
+"Go away, Lily! This is my hook!" Ben shouted.
+
+Lily crawled under the bush too. She reached for the hook, but Ben pulled it away. They both tugged on the hook, but it did not break.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud bark. It was Rex, the big dog from next door. He had seen the hook and wanted to play with it. He jumped over the fence and ran towards the bush.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They forgot about the hook and crawled out of the bush. They ran to the house and slammed the door behind them.
+
+Rex was confused. He sniffed the bush and found the hook. He bit it and shook it. But the hook was sharp and hurt his mouth. He yelped and dropped the hook. He ran back to his yard and whined.
+
+Lily and Ben watched from the window. They felt sorry for Rex. They realized that the hook was not a good toy. They decided to share their worm instead. They opened the jar and let the worm crawl in the dirt. They smiled and hugged each other. They were friends again.
+Tom and Sue are friends who like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They like to make roads and bridges with blocks and pretend to drive their cars on them.
+
+One day, they are playing with cars in the living room. Tom has a big red car and Sue has a small blue car. They are driving on the same road, but from opposite directions. They see each other and want to keep driving. They do not want to stop or turn.
+
+They see a sign on the road that says "yield". Tom does not know what "yield" means. He thinks it means "go fast". Sue knows what "yield" means. She learned it from her mom. It means "let the other car go first". She tries to tell Tom, but he does not listen. He says "I have a big car, I can go first".
+
+They keep driving and get closer and closer. They do not slow down or move away. They crash into each other. Their cars break and their blocks fall. They cry and get hurt. Their mom hears them and comes to see what happened. She is very serious and angry. She says "You did not follow the sign. You did not yield. You did not share. You did not play nice. You have to say sorry and fix your cars and blocks. And no more playing with cars today".
+
+Tom and Sue feel bad and sorry. They say sorry to each other and to their mom. They hug and help each other fix their cars and blocks. They learn to follow the sign and yield. They learn to share and play nice. They are friends again and happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. One day, their mom says they will go to visit their grandma and grandpa. Anna and Ben are happy. They love their grandma and grandpa. They pack their bags and get in the car.
+
+When they get to grandma and grandpa's house, they see a huge dog. The dog is brown and fluffy. He has a big tail and a wet nose. He runs to Anna and Ben and licks their faces. Anna and Ben giggle. They pet the dog and say hello.
+
+"His name is Spot," grandma says. "He is very friendly and gentle. He likes to play with you. Do you want to play with him?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna and Ben say. They follow Spot to the backyard. There are balls and ropes and bones for Spot. Anna and Ben throw the balls and tug the ropes and hide the bones. Spot chases and fetches and finds. He barks and wags and jumps. Anna and Ben laugh and run and hug. They have so much fun with Spot.
+
+When it is time to go inside, Spot follows them. He wants to stay with Anna and Ben. He lies down on their bed and snuggles with them. Anna and Ben pat him and say good night.
+
+"Can Spot stay with us, grandma?" Anna asks.
+
+"Of course, he can," grandma says. "He loves you very much. He will stay with you until you go home."
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They are happy to have Spot as their friend. They close their eyes and fall asleep. Spot stays with them and keeps them warm.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big sign. The sign says: "No dogs allowed". Tom and Anna are sad. They love dogs. They have a plan.
+
+They go to Anna's house. Anna's dad is a lawyer. He knows about signs and rules. Tom and Anna ask him for help. They say: "Dad, can you make the sign go away? We want to play with dogs in the park."
+
+Anna's dad smiles. He says: "I can try. But I need to talk to the people who put the sign there. They are the park managers. They are very bitter. They do not like dogs or children. They think dogs make noise and mess. They think children break things and run around. They are wrong. Dogs and children are good and fun."
+
+Anna's dad takes Tom and Anna to the park. He talks to the park managers. He says: "Hello, I am a lawyer. I want to talk to you about the sign. The sign is not fair. It makes dogs and children unhappy. It also breaks the law. The law says that dogs and children have rights. They have the right to play and enjoy the park. You cannot take away their rights. You have to change the sign or take it down."
+
+The park managers are angry. They say: "No, we will not change the sign or take it down. We are the bosses of the park. We make the rules. We do not care about the law or the rights. We only care about the park. The park is ours. You and your dogs and children can go away."
+
+Anna's dad is not afraid. He says: "No, we will not go away. We will stay and play. And we will sue you. We will go to the court. The court will make you change the sign or take it down. The court will make you pay money. The money will go to the dogs and children. They will use the money to buy toys and treats. They will be happy. You will be sorry."
+
+The park managers are scared. They say: "OK, OK, we give up. We will change the sign or take it down. We will not pay money. We will be nice. We will let the dogs and children play. We will not be bitter. We will be happy too."
+
+Anna's dad says: "Good. That is the right thing to do. Thank you for listening. Come on, Tom and Anna, let's go and play with the dogs. They are waiting for us."
+
+Tom and Anna are happy. They hug Anna's dad. They say: "Thank you, dad. You are the best lawyer. You are our hero. You made the sign go away. You made the park better. You made us happy."
+
+They run to the dogs. The dogs wag their tails. They lick Tom and Anna's faces. They play and have fun. The park is full of joy. The end.
+Lily was sick. She had a fever and a cough. Her mom put a thermometer in her mouth to check her temperature. Lily did not like the thermometer. It was cold and hard and made her tongue feel funny.
+
+"Be still, Lily. I need to see how hot you are," her mom said.
+
+Lily wanted to spit out the thermometer. She wanted to play with her toys. She wanted to watch TV. She wanted to do anything but lie in bed. She was bored and unhappy.
+
+She saw her teddy bear on the floor. She reached out her hand to grab it. But she was clumsy. She knocked over the glass of water on her nightstand. The water spilled on the floor and on her bed. It made a big mess.
+
+Her mom heard the noise and rushed to her room. She saw the water and the thermometer and the teddy bear. She was angry and worried.
+
+"Lily, what did you do? You could have broken the thermometer and hurt yourself. And now your bed is wet and you are cold. How can you get better if you don't listen to me?" her mom scolded.
+
+Lily felt bad. She did not mean to make trouble. She was sorry. She started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted my teddy bear. I don't like being sick. I don't like the thermometer. I don't like anything," she sobbed.
+
+Her mom sighed. She picked up the thermometer and looked at it. It was still working. It showed a high number. Lily was very hot.
+
+"Lily, you have a high fever. You need to go to the doctor. Maybe you have an infection. Come on, let's get you dressed and go to the car," her mom said.
+
+Lily did not want to go to the doctor. She was scared. She hated the doctor. He always gave her shots and pills and made her feel worse. She clung to her teddy bear and shook her head.
+
+"No, mom. No doctor. Please. No," she begged.
+
+But her mom did not listen. She was firm. She took Lily by the hand and dragged her to the car. Lily cried and screamed and kicked. She did not want to go. She wanted to stay home. She wanted to be well. But she was not. She was sick. And she had to go to the doctor. And she did not like it. Not one bit.
+Lily and Max were playing in the garden. They had a big tank of water and a spray bottle. They liked to spray water on the flowers and the bugs.
+
+"Look, Max, I can make a rainbow!" Lily said, holding the spray bottle in the sun.
+
+"That's cool, Lily. Can I try?" Max asked.
+
+"Sure, here you go." Lily gave Max the spray bottle.
+
+Max sprayed water in the air, but he also sprayed Lily's face by accident.
+
+"Hey, Max, you got me wet!" Lily said, wiping her eyes.
+
+"Sorry, Lily, I didn't mean to." Max said.
+
+"It's okay, Max. Let's spray something else." Lily said.
+
+They looked around the garden for something to spray. They saw a big bush with green leaves and purple flowers. They also saw something shiny and mysterious behind the bush.
+
+"What's that, Lily?" Max asked, pointing at the shiny thing.
+
+"I don't know, Max. Let's go and see." Lily said.
+
+They walked towards the bush, holding the spray bottle. They moved the leaves aside and saw a metal box with a red button. It looked like a toy, but they had never seen it before.
+
+"Wow, Lily, what is this?" Max asked.
+
+"I don't know, Max. Maybe it's a present." Lily said.
+
+"Maybe we should press the button and see what happens." Max said.
+
+"Okay, Max. But be careful." Lily said.
+
+Max reached out his hand and pressed the button. The box made a loud noise and opened up. A jet of water came out of the box and sprayed Lily and Max all over.
+
+"Ahh, Lily, it's spraying us!" Max shouted.
+
+"Ahh, Max, it's cold!" Lily screamed.
+
+They ran away from the bush, dripping wet. They looked at the box and saw it was still spraying water.
+
+"Max, what did we do?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe it's a prank." Max said.
+
+"Maybe we should tell Mom." Lily said.
+
+"Maybe we should." Max said.
+
+They ran inside the house, looking for Mom. They hoped she would not be angry. They also wondered who left the mysterious box in the garden.
+Ben liked to organize his toys. He had a big box for his cars, a small box for his blocks, and a shelf for his books. He also had a boat that he loved very much. It was blue and white and had a sail. He liked to play with it in the bath or in the pool.
+
+One day, Ben went to the park with his mom and dad. They brought a picnic and a ball. Ben also brought his boat. He wanted to sail it on the pond. He was very excited. He ran to the water and put his boat in. He watched it float and move with the wind.
+
+But then, a big duck came. It saw Ben's boat and thought it was food. It swam towards it and opened its beak. Ben saw the duck and was very worried. He shouted, "No, duck, no! That's my boat!" He ran to the pond and tried to get his boat back. But he was too late. The duck bit the boat and made a hole in it. The boat started to sink.
+
+Ben was very sad. He cried and cried. His mom and dad came and hugged him. They said they were sorry and that they would get him a new boat. They also said they were proud of him for being brave and trying to save his boat. They gave him a kiss and a cookie.
+
+Ben felt a little better. He still missed his boat, but he knew his mom and dad loved him. He also learned a lesson. He decided to organize his toys better. He said, "Next time, I will put my boat in a bag. Then the duck won't see it." He smiled and ate his cookie.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to make them zoom and crash and beep. But then a big boy came and took Lily's car. He said it was his and ran away.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Ben shouted. "Give it back!"
+
+The big boy laughed and said, "No, it's mine now. You can't catch me!"
+
+Ben and Lily chased him, but he was too fast. He ran to a distant hill, where he had a fort made of sticks and stones. He put Lily's car inside and said, "This is my fight. You can't come in!"
+
+Ben and Lily were sad and angry. They wanted to get Lily's car back, but they didn't know how. They looked around and saw a big dog. The dog was friendly and wagged his tail. Ben had an idea.
+
+"Hey, dog, can you help us?" he asked. "That boy took our car and he is mean. Can you save us?"
+
+The dog barked and nodded. He followed Ben and Lily to the hill. He saw the boy and his fort. He growled and ran towards him. The boy was scared and dropped Lily's car. He ran away, crying.
+
+"Wow, thank you, dog!" Ben and Lily said. They hugged the dog and took their car back. They played with the dog and their cars until it was time to go home.
+
+They gave the dog a treat and said goodbye. They were happy and proud. They had a new friend and they had won the fight.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. They saw a big slide with a loop in the middle. Tom wanted to climb the slide and go down the loop. Lily was scared and said, "No, Tom, that is too high and too fast. You might fall and hurt yourself."
+
+Tom did not listen to Lily. He said, "I am brave and strong. I can do it. You are a baby who is afraid of everything." He ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. He reached the top and looked down. He saw the loop and felt a little scared, but he did not want to show it. He said, "Here I go!" and pushed himself down the slide.
+
+But the loop was too tight for Tom. He could not fit through it. He got stuck in the middle and started to cry. He shouted, "Help! Help! I want to get out!" Lily heard him and ran to the slide. She saw Tom in the loop and felt sorry for him. She said, "Don't worry, Tom, I will help you." She climbed up the slide and reached the loop. She pulled Tom out of the loop and hugged him. She said, "Are you okay, Tom? You were very silly to go down the loop. You should have listened to me."
+
+Tom felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You were right. I was too proud and foolish. I should have listened to you. Thank you for helping me. You are a good sister and a good friend." He hugged Lily back and said, "I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I love you too, Tom. Come on, let's go and play something else. Something safe and fun." They held hands and walked away from the slide. They learned a lesson that day. They learned to be careful and to listen to each other. They learned that being brave is not the same as being reckless. And they learned that being a twin is a special gift.
+Tom and Lily like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is the bow and arrow. The bow and arrow are modern. They are not like the ones in the old stories. They are made of plastic and have soft tips. They do not hurt anyone.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big tree with a hole. They think it is a good place to hide and shoot arrows. They run to the tree and take turns to shoot arrows at the birds and the clouds.
+
+"Look, Lily, I hit a bird!" Tom says, pointing at a feather on the ground.
+
+"Wow, Tom, you are good!" Lily says, clapping her hands.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. Do you want to try?" Tom says, offering his bow and arrow to Lily.
+
+"Yes, please, Tom. Thank you for sharing!" Lily says, taking the bow and arrow from Tom.
+
+Lily aims at a cloud and pulls the string. But she pulls too hard and the arrow flies out of the hole and hits a man who is walking by. The man is surprised and angry. He shouts at Tom and Lily.
+
+"Hey, you kids, what are you doing? You could have hurt me with that arrow! That is not a toy, that is a weapon! Where are your parents?" The man says, holding the arrow in his hand.
+
+Tom and Lily are scared and sorry. They did not mean to hit the man. They come out of the hole and say sorry to the man.
+
+"We are sorry, mister. We did not see you. We were just playing with our bow and arrow. They are modern. They are not real. They are soft. Please do not be mad at us." Tom and Lily say, looking at the man with big eyes.
+
+The man looks at the bow and arrow and sees that they are indeed modern and soft. He realizes that Tom and Lily are just children who were having fun. He feels sorry for shouting at them. He smiles and gives the arrow back to Tom.
+
+"It's okay, kids. I forgive you. But you have to be careful when you play with your bow and arrow. You have to look around and make sure no one is near. You have to be safe and respectful. Do you understand?" The man says, patting Tom and Lily on their heads.
+
+"Yes, mister. We understand. We will be careful and respectful. Thank you for being nice to us." Tom and Lily say, nodding their heads.
+
+The man waves goodbye and walks away. Tom and Lily wave back and hug each other. They are happy that the man is not mad at them. They decide to play with their bow and arrow somewhere else. They look for a new place to have fun.
+Tom and Mia are playing in the garden. They like to run and jump and laugh. They see a big dog near the fence. The dog is black and white and has a long tail. The dog barks at them.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Tom says. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The dog does not want to play. The dog is angry and scared. The dog runs to the fence and tries to bite Tom and Mia. Tom and Mia are afraid and run away.
+
+"Help, help!" Mia cries. "The dog is bad! The dog wants to bite us!"
+
+Tom and Mia run to the house. They look for the door. The door is closed and locked. Tom and Mia cannot open the door.
+
+"Mom, mom!" Tom shouts. "Open the door! There is a bad dog outside!"
+
+Mom hears Tom and Mia. She is in the kitchen. She runs to the door and opens it. Tom and Mia run inside and hug mom.
+
+"Are you okay, my loves?" Mom asks. "What happened?"
+
+"There was a bad dog outside, mom!" Mia says. "The dog tried to bite us!"
+
+Mom looks outside and sees the dog. The dog is still barking and jumping at the fence. Mom is not afraid. She is powerful and brave.
+
+"Shoo, shoo, dog!" Mom says. "Go away! You are not welcome here!"
+
+The dog hears mom and sees her. The dog is not angry and scared anymore. The dog is sorry and ashamed. The dog lowers its tail and runs away.
+
+Tom and Mia are happy and safe. They thank mom and kiss her.
+
+"Mom, you are powerful and brave!" Tom says. "You scared the bad dog away!"
+
+"Yes, mom, you are powerful and brave!" Mia says. "We love you, mom!"
+
+Mom smiles and hugs Tom and Mia.
+
+"I love you too, my loves!" Mom says. "Now, let's go inside and have some cookies!"
+Lily and Ben were playing in the yard. They saw a big box near the fence. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Ben said.
+
+They ran to the box and lifted the lid. They saw a small cat with black and white fur. The cat was hiding in the corner of the box. It looked nervous and scared.
+
+"Hello, kitty!" Lily said softly. She reached out her hand to pet the cat.
+
+"Meow!" The cat hissed and scratched Lily's hand. Lily cried out and pulled back her hand.
+
+"Ow! That hurt!" Lily said.
+
+"Are you OK?" Ben asked. He looked at Lily's hand. It had a red mark.
+
+"I'm OK. But the kitty is not nice!" Lily said.
+
+"Maybe the kitty is afraid. Maybe it needs help." Ben said.
+
