+But then, something happens. Tom tries to balance a cardboard box on his head. He wants to make a tower. He thinks it is funny. But he loses his balance. He falls down. He knocks over the boxes. The castle collapses.
+
+"Uh-oh!" Tom says.
+
+"Tom, what did you do? You ruined our game! You broke our castle! You are very silly and clumsy. I am very angry and sad." Mia says.
+
+She starts to cry. Tom feels bad. He says he is sorry. He tries to hug her. But she pushes him away. She does not want to play with him. She does not want to talk to him. She is very mad.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the mess. She sees the twins. She sees their faces.
+
+"What happened here? Are you okay?" Mom says.
+
+"Tom broke our game! He broke our castle! He is very silly and clumsy. I am very angry and sad." Mia says.
+
+"I was trying to balance a cardboard box on my head. I wanted to make a tower. I thought it was funny. But I lost my balance. I fell down. I knocked over the boxes. I am very sorry and sad." Tom says.
+
+Mom hugs them both. She says it is okay. She says they can make a new game. She says they can fix their castle. She says they can still have fun. She says they are very creative and smart. She says they are very sweet and brave. She says they are very loved.
+
+"Will you forgive me, Mia? Will you play with me again? Will you talk to me again? I love you, Mia." Tom says.
+
+"I forgive you, Tom. I will play with you again. I will talk to you again. I love you, Tom." Mia says.
+
+They hug each other. They smile. They are not bored. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the grass. They also liked to splash them in the puddle near the fence.
+
+"Look, my car is faster than yours!" Anna said to Ben.
+
+"No, mine is!" Ben said back.
+
+They raced their cars to the puddle and made a big splash. But then, something strange happened. Anna's car disappeared in the water.
+
+"Where is my car?" Anna asked. She was in shock. She put her hand in the puddle to find it, but it was too deep and muddy.
+
+"Maybe it sank to the bottom," Ben said. He tried to help Anna, but he couldn't see anything either.
+
+They were both very wet and sad. They wondered if they would ever see Anna's car again.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a bark. It was their dog, Spot. He ran to the puddle and sniffed it. Then, he put his mouth in the water and pulled out something. It was Anna's car!
+
+"Spot, you found my car!" Anna shouted. She was very happy. She hugged Spot and thanked him.
+
+"Good boy, Spot!" Ben said. He was happy too. He patted Spot and smiled.
+
+They dried their car and their dog with a towel. Then, they continued to play with their toy cars in the garden. They were careful not to splash them in the puddle again. They didn't want them to disappear.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to read books. She had many books with pictures and words on the pages. She liked to look at the pages and say the words out loud. Sometimes, her mom or dad would read the books to her and make funny voices.
+
+One night, Lily was very sleepy, but she wanted to read one more book. She picked a book about a princess and a dragon. She opened the book and saw a picture of a princess in a pink dress and a crown. She said, "Hello, princess. You are pretty."
+
+Then, she turned the page and saw a picture of a dragon with green scales and big teeth. She said, "Hello, dragon. You are scary."
+
+The dragon said, "Roar! I am not scary. I am nice. I want to be your friend."
+
+Lily was surprised. She said, "You can talk?"
+
+The dragon said, "Yes, I can talk. I learned from the books. I like to read books, too. Can I read with you?"
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Yes, you can read with me. But you have to be quiet. Mom and dad are sleeping."
+
+The dragon said, "OK, I will be quiet. Thank you for being nice to me."
+
+Lily and the dragon read the book together. They saw the princess and the dragon go on an adventure. They helped each other and had fun. At the end of the book, the princess and the dragon became friends. They hugged and said goodbye.
+
+Lily said, "That was a good story. I like the princess and the dragon. They are good friends."
+
+The dragon said, "Me too. I like you, too. You are a good friend."
+
+Lily said, "Thank you. You are a good friend, too."
+
+The dragon said, "Can I give you a hug?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, you can."
+
+The dragon gave Lily a hug. He was warm and soft. Lily felt happy.
+
+Then, the dragon said, "I have to go now. It is late. I have to sleep in my cave."
+
+Lily said, "OK. Good night, dragon. I hope to see you again."
+
+The dragon said, "Good night, Lily. I hope to see you again, too."
+
+The dragon bowed to Lily and flew away. Lily waved to him and closed the book. She put the book on her shelf and crawled into her bed. She was very sleepy. She closed her eyes and dreamed of the princess and the dragon. She was happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were spies and use the telephone to talk to each other. They had a secret code and a secret mission.
+
+"Agent Lily, are you there?" Tom whispered into the telephone.
+
+"Yes, Agent Tom, I'm here. What is the mission?" Lily whispered back.
+
+"The mission is to find the key to the lock. The lock is on the door to the basement. There is a treasure in the basement. But we have to be careful. There is a guard in the house. The guard is Mom. She is making dinner in the kitchen. She doesn't know we are spies."
+
+"OK, Agent Tom, I'm ready. How do we find the key?"
+
+"The key is hidden in the couch. You have to look under the cushions. But be quiet. Don't let Mom hear you."
+
+Lily nodded and put down the telephone. She crawled to the couch and lifted a cushion. She saw a shiny key. She grabbed it and smiled. She crawled back to the telephone.
+
+"Agent Lily, did you find the key?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, Agent Tom, I found the key. Let's go to the basement."
+
+They ran to the door to the basement. Lily put the key in the lock and turned it. The door opened. They went down the stairs. They saw a big box. They opened the box. They gasped. Inside the box was a lot of toys. They were so happy. They forgot about Mom.
+
+Mom heard a noise from the basement. She was anxious. She wondered what Lily and Tom were doing. She left the kitchen and went to the door to the basement. She saw the lock was open. She went down the stairs. She saw Lily and Tom playing with the toys. She was angry.
+
+"Lily and Tom, what are you doing here? These are your Christmas presents. You were not supposed to see them. How did you open the lock?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at Mom. They were scared. They dropped the toys. They didn't know what to say. They had broken the rules. They had spoiled the surprise. They were sorry.
+Lily and Tom like to play near the lake. They see many fish and ducks in the water. They also see some stones on the ground. Lily picks up a stone and throws it into the lake. She likes to see the splash and the ripples. Tom picks up a stone too and throws it into the lake. He likes to hear the plop and the quack.
+
+But then they see a big sign that says "No throwing stones". It has a picture of a duck with a red cross on it. Lily and Tom do not know what the sign means, but they think it is important. They stop throwing stones and look at the sign. They wonder why they cannot throw stones.
+
+A man comes by and sees them. He smiles and says hello. He tells them that the sign means that throwing stones can hurt the fish and the ducks. He says that the fish and the ducks live in the lake and need to be safe. He says that throwing stones can make them scared or injured. He says that Lily and Tom can play with the stones, but not throw them into the lake.
+
+Lily and Tom understand and say sorry. They do not want to hurt the fish and the ducks. They want them to be safe and happy. They put the stones back on the ground and look for other things to play with. They find some sticks and leaves and make a boat. They put the boat on the water and watch it float. They see the fish and the ducks swim by and wave to them. They are glad that they are not throwing stones anymore. They are having fun and being kind.
+Tom loves to play football with his dad. Every day, they go to the park and kick the ball together. Tom likes to run fast and score goals. He feels glad when his dad cheers for him.
+
+One day, Tom and his dad see a big cloud in the sky. It is dark and scary. Tom's dad says they have to go home soon, because it might rain. Tom does not want to go home. He wants to play more football.
+
+They keep playing for a while, but then they hear a loud noise. It is thunder. Tom's dad says they have to go home now, because it is not safe. Tom is sad. He picks up the ball and follows his dad.
+
+As they walk to the car, something shiny appears on the ground. It is a coin. Tom's dad says it is lucky. He gives it to Tom and says he can buy a treat with it. Tom smiles. He puts the coin in his pocket and hugs his dad.
+
+Tom is still sad that he could not play more football, but he is glad that he found a lucky coin. He thinks maybe tomorrow the sun will come out and he can play again. He hopes so. He loves to play football with his dad.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to go on the swings and the slide. They saw a big pond with some ducks. They wanted to feed the ducks some bread.
+
+They walked to the pond and broke some bread into pieces. They threw the bread into the water. The ducks came and ate the bread. Lily and Ben were happy.
+
+But then they saw something else in the water. It was big and green and had many teeth. It was an alligator. The alligator saw the bread and the ducks. It wanted to eat them.
+
+The alligator swam fast and opened its mouth. It snapped at the ducks. The ducks were scared and flew away. The alligator was angry and looked at Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared too. They ran away from the pond. They saw a man with a hat and a net. He was a park ranger. He saw the alligator and the children.
+
+He said, "Don't worry, kids. I will catch the alligator and put it in a safe place. It does not belong here. It is lost and hungry. You are fine. Come with me."
+
+Lily and Ben followed the park ranger. He gave them some water and a cookie. He told them about the alligator and how it came to the pond. He said he would take it to a zoo where it could have a good home.
+
+Lily and Ben felt better. They thanked the park ranger and went back to their mom. They told her what happened. She hugged them and said, "I'm glad you are fine. You were brave. Let's go home and have some ice cream."
+Lily and Max were playing in the yard. They liked to dig in the dirt and find things. Sometimes they found worms, sometimes they found rocks, sometimes they found nothing.
+
+One day, they found a big nail. It was long and shiny and had a pointy end. Lily was very excited. She wanted to keep the nail and show it to Mommy. Max was excited too. He wanted to use the nail to make a hole in the fence and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Give me the nail!" Max said.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said.
+
+They both pulled on the nail, but it was very rough and hurt their hands. They started to cry and yell.
+
+Mommy heard them and came outside. She saw the nail and was not happy. She took the nail away from them and put it in the trash.
+
+"Nails are not toys," she said. "They are sharp and dangerous. You could get hurt or hurt someone else. You should never play with nails."
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry. They said they were sorry to Mommy and to each other. They hugged and went back to playing. They decided to look for something else in the dirt. Maybe they would find a treasure.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toys. They have many toys of different colors and shapes. Anna likes to sort her toys by color. She puts the red toys in one pile, the blue toys in another pile, and so on. Ben likes to sort his toys by shape. He puts the round toys in one pile, the square toys in another pile, and so on.
+
+"Look, Anna, I sorted my toys by shape. Do you like it?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna looks at Ben's piles and shakes her head. "No, Ben, I don't like it. You mixed the colors. You have red and blue and yellow and green in each pile. That is terrible. You should sort your toys by color like me. See, I have only one color in each pile. That is better."
+
+Ben frowns and sticks out his lip. "No, Anna, you are wrong. Sorting by shape is better. It is more fun. You can make different things with the shapes. You can make a house with the squares, or a ball with the rounds, or a star with the triangles. Sorting by color is boring. You can only make the same thing with the same color."
+
+Anna and Ben start to argue. They raise their voices and point at their piles. They do not listen to each other. They do not share their toys. They are not happy.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees their piles and their faces. She smiles and says, "Anna and Ben, why are you fighting? You both did a good job sorting your toys. You both used your brains and your eyes and your hands. You both have different ways of sorting, and that is okay. There is no right or wrong way to sort. You can sort by color, or by shape, or by size, or by anything you want. The important thing is to have fun and to be kind. Why don't you try to sort together? Maybe you can learn something new from each other. Maybe you can make something beautiful with your toys. Maybe you can be friends again."
+
+Anna and Ben look at Mom and then at each other. They feel sorry for being mean. They say sorry and hug. They decide to sort together. They mix their piles and make new piles. They sort by color and by shape and by size and by anything they want. They make different things with their toys. They make a house and a ball and a star and more. They have fun and they are kind. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are playing hide and seek in the park. Anna is the seeker and Ben is the hider. Ben runs to a big tree and hides behind it. He thinks Anna will not find him there.
+
+Anna 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, but no Ben. She wonders where he is.
+
+She walks to the big tree and hears a noise. She thinks it is Ben, but when she looks behind the tree, she sees a furry animal. It is a raccoon. The raccoon looks at Anna and makes a hissing sound. Anna is scared and screams.
+
+Ben hears Anna scream and comes out of his hiding spot. He sees the raccoon and Anna. He runs to Anna and hugs her. He says, "Don't worry, Anna, I am here. The raccoon will not hurt you. Let's go away from the tree."
+
+Anna and Ben run away from the tree and the raccoon. They find their mom and dad and tell them what happened. Their mom and dad hug them and say, "We are glad you are safe. Next time, be careful where you hide. Some animals are not friendly." Anna and Ben nod and say, "We will, mom and dad. We love you."
+Anna and Ben were twins. They liked to play and have fun. But sometimes they did not behave. They did not listen to Mom and Dad. They made a lot of noise and mess.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad said they were going on a journey. They were going to visit Grandma and Grandpa. They packed their bags and got in the car. Anna and Ben were excited. They loved Grandma and Grandpa. They had a big house and a big garden. They had a fat cat and a fat dog. They gave them cookies and hugs.
+
+But Mom and Dad said they had to behave on the journey. They had to sit still and be quiet. They had to wear their seat belts and not fight. They had to say please and thank you. Anna and Ben nodded. They wanted to be good.
+
+But the journey was long and boring. Anna and Ben got tired and hungry. They started to whine and complain. They wanted to stop and play. They wanted to eat and drink. They wanted to see Grandma and Grandpa. They did not behave.
+
+Mom and Dad got angry and sad. They said they were disappointed. They said they had to turn back and go home. They said they could not see Grandma and Grandpa. Anna and Ben cried. They did not want to go home. They wanted to see Grandma and Grandpa. They said they were sorry. They said they would behave.
+
+Mom and Dad looked at each other. They saw the tears and the sorry faces. They felt sorry too. They said they would give them another chance. They said they would continue the journey. They said they had to behave. Anna and Ben smiled. They said they would behave. They hugged Mom and Dad. They said they loved them.
+
+The journey was long and boring. But Anna and Ben behaved. They sat still and were quiet. They wore their seat belts and did not fight. They said please and thank you. They were good.
+
+They arrived at Grandma and Grandpa's house. Grandma and Grandpa were happy to see them. They gave them cookies and hugs. They played with the fat cat and the fat dog. They had a lot of fun. They behaved.
+
+Mom and Dad were proud and happy. They said they were glad. They said they did a good job. They said they loved them. Anna and Ben were happy too. They said they loved them. They said they were sorry. They said they would behave. They did.
+Lily was a curious girl who liked to explore new things. One day, she saw a shiny teaspoon on the table. She wanted to see what it was for, so she picked it up and looked at it.
+
+"Hello, teaspoon," she said. "What do you do?"
+
+The teaspoon did not answer, but it felt cold and smooth in her hand. She saw her reflection in it and made funny faces. She giggled and moved the teaspoon around.
+
+She noticed that the teaspoon had a part that was round and a part that was long. She wondered what would happen if she put the round part in her mouth. She opened her mouth and tried to fit the teaspoon in.
+
+"Ow!" she cried. "That hurts!"
+
+She quickly took the teaspoon out of her mouth and felt her tongue. It was sore and had a bad taste. She did not like the teaspoon anymore. She threw it on the floor and ran away.
+
+Her mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the teaspoon on the floor and Lily hiding behind the couch.
+
+"Lily, what did you do?" she asked.
+
+"I was playing with the teaspoon, but it hurt me," Lily said.
+
+"Teaspoons are not for playing, they are for eating," her mom said. "You have to be careful with them, they can hurt your mouth and teeth. And you have to ask before you take things that are not yours."
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," Lily said. "I was just curious."
+
+Her mom hugged her and kissed her tongue. She picked up the teaspoon and put it back on the table.
+
+"It's okay, Lily, I know you are curious," she said. "But next time, ask me first, and I will show you how to use the teaspoon properly. Do you want to help me make some tea?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She liked tea and she liked her mom. She followed her to the kitchen and learned how to use the teaspoon safely. She was still curious, but she was also careful.
+Lily and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat something yummy. They looked in the kitchen for food. They saw a big pot on the stove. It had steam coming out of it.
+
+"What is in the pot?" Lily asked.
+
+"Let's find out!" Ben said. He climbed on a chair and lifted the lid. He saw something white and long and curly. It looked like worms.
+
+"Yuck!" Ben said. "What is this?"
+
+"It's pasta!" Lily said. She liked pasta. She had eaten it before at Grandma's house. She said it was brilliant. "Pasta is good. You can put sauce on it. And cheese. And eat it with a fork."
+
+"Really?" Ben said. He was not sure. He smelled the pasta. It smelled nice. He took a small bite. It was soft and warm and tasty. He liked it.
+
+"See? Pasta is brilliant!" Lily said. She took a big bite. She smiled.
+
+They ate the pasta until they were full. They were happy. They had found something yummy. They thanked Mom for making the pasta. Mom smiled. She was glad they liked it. She said they were brilliant too.
+Lily was a girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had a pink dress and long hair. Lily liked to pretend that Anna was her friend and talk to her.
+
+One day, Lily saw a rat in her room. The rat was big and brown and had a long tail. Lily was not afraid of the rat. She thought the rat looked lonely and wanted to play. She said to the rat, "Hello, rat. Do you want to play with me and Anna? I can invite you to a tea party. We have cookies and juice."
+
+The rat nodded and followed Lily to her table. Lily gave the rat a plate and a cup. She said, "This is Anna. She is my best friend. You can be her friend too. Here, have a cookie. They are very yummy." The rat took a cookie and ate it. It was warm and sweet. The rat liked the cookie.
+
+Lily poured some juice for the rat and herself. She said, "Let's drink some juice. It is very good. It will make you happy." The rat drank some juice. It was cold and sour. The rat did not like the juice. It made him angry.
+
+The rat looked at Anna. Anna was smiling and had a pretty dress. The rat did not like Anna. He thought Anna was too happy and too pretty. He wanted to make Anna sad and ugly. He jumped on the table and grabbed Anna. He bit her hair and tore her dress. He said, "You are not my friend. You are a bad doll. I will make you a bad doll."
+
+Lily screamed and tried to save Anna. She said, "No, rat. Stop it. You are a bad rat. You are hurting Anna. Let her go." But the rat was stronger and faster. He ran away with Anna and hid under the bed. Lily cried and cried. She had lost her best friend. She wished she had never invited the rat to her tea party.
+Tom and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with their toy cars and trucks. They had a big map of the nation on the floor, and they pretended to drive across it.
+
+One day, Tom had a new car. It was red and shiny, and it made a loud noise. Sam wanted to play with it, but Tom said no. He said it was his car, and he did not want to share.
+
+"Please, Tom, let me try it," Sam said. "Just for a little bit. I will be careful."
+
+"No, Sam, go away. This is my car, and you can't touch it," Tom said. He drove his car away from Sam, and passed the mountains and the rivers on the map.
+
+Sam felt sad and angry. He thought Tom was not a loyal friend. He looked at his own car, which was old and quiet. He had an idea. He picked up his car, and threw it at Tom's car. He hoped to break it.
+
+Tom saw Sam's car flying towards him. He was scared and mad. He tried to dodge it, but it was too late. Sam's car hit Tom's car, and both cars crashed. They made a loud bang, and pieces flew everywhere.
+
+Tom and Sam stared at the broken cars. They felt sorry and ashamed. They realized they had done a bad thing. They looked at each other, and said at the same time:
+
+"I'm sorry, friend. I was wrong. Can we still play?"
+
+They hugged each other, and picked up the pieces. They decided to fix their cars together, and share them. They learned to be loyal and kind to each other. They drove their cars on the map, and passed the nation as friends.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys on the big table. But today, they have a problem. They both want the same toy car. It is red and shiny and fast.
+
+"Give me the car!" Tom says. He tries to grab the car from Lily's hand.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Lily says. She holds the car tight and pulls it away from Tom.
+
+They both frown. They are angry and sad. They do not want to share.
+
+Mom sees them. She comes to the table. She is not happy.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom asks. She looks at Tom and Lily. "Why are you fighting over the car?"
+
+"Because it is the best toy!" Tom says.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Lily says.
+
+Mom shakes her head. She picks up the car. She puts it on the shelf.
+
+"Enough!" Mom says. "You cannot play with the car until you learn to share. Now, you can choose another toy. But you have to take turns. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They are sorry. They do not want to make Mom angry.
+
+They look at the other toys on the table. There are many toys. There are dolls and blocks and books and trains.
+
+Tom sees a blue train. He likes trains. He points to the train.
+
+"Can I have the train?" Tom asks.
+
+Lily sees a yellow doll. She likes dolls. She points to the doll.
+
+"Can I have the doll?" Lily asks.
+
+Mom smiles. She gives them the train and the doll.
+
+"Here you go," Mom says. "You can play with these toys. But remember, you have to share. You can swap them after a while. OK?"
+
+Tom and Lily smile. They say thank you. They hug Mom.
+
+They start to play with their new toys. They are happy. They do not frown anymore. They are good twins.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. It was a sunny day and they had a lot of fun.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can kick the ball very high!" Ben said. He kicked the ball as hard as he could and it flew over the fence.
+
+"Oh no, Ben, where did the ball go?" Lily asked. She ran to the fence and looked over. She saw the ball on the road. She also saw a big car with red and blue lights and a loud sound. It was an ambulance.
+
+"Ben, we have to get the ball. It's our favorite ball!" Lily said. She climbed over the fence and ran to the road. She did not see the other cars that were coming fast.
+
+"Stop, Lily, stop!" Ben shouted. He was scared for Lily. He climbed over the fence and ran after her. He tried to catch her hand and pull her back.
+
+But it was too late. A car hit Lily and she fell to the ground. She did not move. Ben cried and screamed for help. The ambulance stopped and the people inside came out. They had white clothes and bags. They put Lily on a bed with wheels and took her inside the ambulance.
+
+"Is she going to be okay?" Ben asked. He was very sad and worried.
+
+"We don't know, little boy. She is hurt very bad. We have to take her to the hospital and help her. You have to stay here and wait for your mom or dad. They will come soon," one of the people said.
+
+Ben nodded and sat on the grass. He hugged the ball and wished he could see Lily again. He wished he could play with her and make her laugh. She was his best friend and she was very funny. He hoped she would wake up and be okay. He hoped she would rest and get better. He missed her very much.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the backyard. They had a big hose and some paint. They wanted to make a rainbow on the wall.
+
+"Let's paint the wall red first," Anna said. She turned on the hose and sprayed the paint on the wall.
+
+"Wow, that looks nice," Ben said. He picked up a blue paint can. "Now let's paint the wall blue."
+
+But before he could spray the paint, their mom came out of the house. She looked very angry.
+
+"What are you doing?" she shouted. "You are making a big mess!"
+
+Anna and Ben felt nervous. They dropped the hose and the paint cans. They ran to their mom and tried to hug her.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," Anna said. "We just wanted to make a rainbow."
+
+"We like rainbows, mom," Ben said. "They are pretty."
+
+Mom sighed. She was not happy, but she loved her children. She hugged them back.
+
+"I know you like rainbows, but you can't paint the wall like that," she said. "That is not how you use the hose and the paint. You have to clean up this mess now."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They were sorry they made mom angry. They picked up the hose and the paint cans. They followed mom to the garage. They hoped mom would let them paint a rainbow on a paper later.
+Sara and Tom were young and liked to play outside. They had a ball and a hoop. They took turns to kick the ball and try to make it go in the hoop. They had fun and laughed a lot.
+
+One day, a big boy came and saw them playing. He wanted the ball and the hoop for himself. He was mean and rude. He pushed Sara and Tom and took their toys. He kicked the ball hard and broke the hoop. He laughed and ran away.
+
+Sara and Tom were sad and angry. They cried and shouted. They wanted their toys back. They ran after the big boy. But he was faster and stronger. He kicked them and hurt them. He threw the ball and hit Sara in the face. He broke her nose and made her bleed. He threw the hoop and hit Tom in the leg. He broke his bone and made him limp.
+
+Sara and Tom fell to the ground and cried more. They were in pain and scared. They wanted their mom and dad. They wanted to go home. They looked at the sky and saw the sunshine. But it did not make them happy. It made them feel hot and thirsty. They wished the sunshine would go away.
+
+The big boy saw them and laughed more. He was happy and proud. He thought he was the best. He did not care about Sara and Tom. He did not care about the ball and the hoop. He did not care about the sunshine. He only cared about himself.
+
+But then, something bad happened. A car came and did not see him. It hit him and made him fly. He screamed and crashed. He broke his head and his body. He did not laugh anymore. He did not breathe anymore. He was gone.
+
+Sara and Tom saw him and stopped crying. They were shocked and sorry. They did not hate him. They did not want him to die. They wished he was alive. They wished he was nice. They wished he was their friend.
+
+The car stopped and the driver came out. He was scared and sorry too. He called for help and tried to help the big boy. But it was too late. He could not help him. He could only cry.
+
+Sara and Tom learned a lesson. They learned that being mean and rude is bad. They learned that being nice and kind is good. They learned that playing and sharing is fun. They learned that life and sunshine are precious. They learned that kicking and hurting is wrong. They learned that love and peace are right.
+Tom liked to seat on his bike and ride around the park. He wanted to be a successful bike rider, like his big brother Sam. Sam could go very fast and do cool tricks on his bike. Tom wanted to learn from him, but Sam was always busy with his friends.
+
+One day, Tom saw a new neighbor move in next door. He had a bike too, but it was bigger and shinier than Tom's. Tom wondered if he could be friends with him and ride bikes together. He decided to go and say hello.
+
+The new neighbor was called Max. He was very friendly and smiled at Tom. He said he liked his bike and asked if he wanted to ride with him. Tom was very happy and said yes. He seat on his bike and followed Max to the park.

+Tim and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they saw a big cake on a table. It looked yummy and sweet.
+
+"Let's go and get a piece of cake," Tim said. "No one is looking."
+
+Lily shook her head. "No, Tim. That is not our cake. It belongs to someone else. We should not take what is not ours. That is bad."
+
+Tim did not listen to Lily. He was hungry and wanted the cake. He ran to the table and grabbed a piece of cake. He put it in his mouth and smiled.
+
+"See, Lily? It is so good. You should try some too."
+
+Lily did not want to try the cake. She was afraid of getting in trouble. She warned Tim again. "Tim, please stop. Someone will see you and be angry. You will be sorry."
+
+But Tim did not stop. He took another piece of cake and ate it. He did not see the lady who was coming back to the table. She had made the cake for her son's birthday. She was very angry when she saw Tim eating her cake.
+
+"Hey, you! What are you doing? That is my cake! How dare you steal it?" she shouted.
+
+Tim was scared. He dropped the cake and ran away. He left Lily behind. Lily was sad and sorry. She said sorry to the lady and told her what happened.
+
+The lady was still angry, but she saw that Lily was honest and kind. She said, "You are a good girl, Lily. You tried to warn your friend, but he did not listen. He was greedy and rude. He is not a good friend. You are intelligent and brave. You know what is right and wrong. You can have a piece of cake, if you want."
+
+Lily thanked the lady and took a small piece of cake. She learned a lesson that day. She learned that it is better to be honest and kind than to be greedy and rude. She also learned that she needed a better friend than Tim.
+Lily and Max were having a picnic with their mom and dad. They had sandwiches, juice, and cookies. Lily and Max loved cookies. They ate them very fast.
+
+"Can we have more cookies, please?" they asked.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You can have more cookies, but only if you finish your sandwiches and juice first. And then I have a surprise for you."
+
+Lily and Max wondered what the surprise was. They finished their sandwiches and juice quickly. They wanted more cookies and the surprise.
+
+"Good job, Lily and Max," said dad. "Now you can have more cookies. And here is the surprise. I picked some cherries from the tree. They are sweet and juicy. Do you want some?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They liked cherries. They took some from the bowl. They bit into them and felt the juice on their tongues. They spit out the pits and laughed.
+
+"These are the best cherries ever," said Lily.
+
+"Thank you, dad," said Max.
+
+Mom and dad were cheerful. They watched Lily and Max enjoy the cherries. They ate some cookies and cherries too. They had a happy picnic.
+Lily liked to go to the store with her mom. The store had many things that Lily wanted. She saw a doll with a pink dress and long hair. She asked her mom if she could have it. Her mom said no, they had no money for toys.
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She wanted the doll very much. She looked around and saw that the owner was busy with other people. She had an idea. She took the doll and hid it under her coat. She thought no one would see her.
+
+She walked to the door with her mom. She was happy and proud. She thought she was very clever. But then she heard a loud voice. It was the owner. He saw Lily take the doll. He was very angry. He ran to Lily and grabbed the doll from her. He yelled at Lily and her mom. He said they were bad and he would call the police.
+
+Lily was scared and ashamed. She started to cry. Her mom was also scared and ashamed. She said she was sorry and she did not know. She tried to explain to the owner. But the owner did not listen. He said they had to leave and never come back.
+
+Lily and her mom left the store. They had no doll and no money. They felt very bad. They walked home in silence. Lily wished she never took the doll. She learned a hard lesson. She never stole anything again.

+
+One day, a big dog comes into their room. The dog is brown and furry. He likes to play too, but he does not know how to play with trains. He sees the station and the light. He thinks they are toys. He runs to the station and tries to bite the light.
+
+Lila and Ben are scared. They love their station and their light. They do not want the dog to break them. They shout at the dog. "No, no, bad dog! Go away! Leave our station alone!" They try to protect their station and their light. They stand in front of them and wave their arms.
+
+The dog is confused. He does not understand why the twins are angry. He thinks they want to play with him. He barks and wags his tail. He jumps and tries to lick their faces.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes into the room. She sees the dog and the twins and the station and the light. She knows the dog is friendly, but he is too big and clumsy for the twins. She calls the dog. "Rex, Rex, come here, boy! Leave the twins alone! They are playing with their trains!" She takes the dog out of the room and gives him a bone.
+
+Lila and Ben are happy. They hug their mom and thank her. They check their station and their light. They are not broken. They are still red and yellow and green. They smile and go back to playing with their trains. They love their station and their light. They are proud of their station and their light.
+Lily and Ben were playing with paper. They liked to fold the paper and make different shapes. Lily made a hat, and Ben made a boat.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a boat!" Ben said. He put his boat on the floor and pretended to sail it.
+
+"That's a nice boat, Ben. Can I try?" Lily asked. She took the boat and made it go fast.
+
+"Be careful, Lily. Don't break it!" Ben said. He watched Lily play with his boat.
+
+Lily and Ben heard a noise. It was their mom. She came into the room with a big smile.
+
+"Hello, my little ones. Do you want to see what I have for you?" Mom said. She held a book in her hand.
+
+"What is it, Mom?" Lily and Ben asked. They ran to Mom and looked at the book.
+
+"It's a book of prints. Prints are pictures that someone made with ink and paper. See, this is a print of a flower, and this is a print of a bird," Mom said. She showed them the prints in the book.
+
+"Wow, they are so pretty, Mom. How did they make them?" Lily asked.
+
+"They used a special tool called a stamp. They put ink on the stamp and pressed it on the paper. Then they got a print," Mom said.
+
+"Can we try, Mom? Can we make prints?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But first, we need to clean up your paper. Let's fold them and put them away," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben helped Mom fold their paper and put them in a box. Then Mom gave them some stamps and ink and paper.
+
+"Have fun, my little ones. But don't make a mess. And when you are done, come to me. It's almost time for bed," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They thanked Mom and started to make prints. They stamped flowers and birds and stars and hearts. They had so much fun.
+
+But soon, they felt sleepy. Their eyes were heavy and their yawns were big.
+
+"Mom, we are done. Can we show you our prints?" Lily said.
+
+"Of course, my little ones. Come here and show me," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben brought their prints to Mom. Mom looked at them and smiled.
+
+"They are beautiful, my little ones. You are very creative. I'm proud of you," Mom said.
+
+She hugged them and kissed them. Then she took them to their room. She tucked them in their beds and read them a story. She turned off the light and said good night.
+
+Lily and Ben closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of prints and paper and stamps. They were happy.
+Lily and Max are twins. They like to play together. One day, they find a big glass jar in the kitchen. It is shiny and clear. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They take the jar to their room. They put it on the floor. They look at the jar. They see something move. It is a tiny frog. It is green and brown. It hops in the jar.
+
+Lily and Max are happy. They want to play with the frog. They open the jar. The frog jumps out. It is playful. It hops on the bed, on the desk, on the chair. Lily and Max laugh. They try to catch the frog.
+
+But the frog is fast. It hops out of the door. It hops down the stairs. It hops to the garden. Lily and Max run after it. They whisper to each other. They do not want to wake up Mom and Dad.
+
+They find the frog in the grass. It is near a pond. It looks at them. It croaks. Lily and Max smile. They understand. The frog wants to go home. They pick up the frog. They put it in the jar. They take it to the pond. They open the jar. The frog hops out. It swims in the water. It looks happy.

+Tim and Sam were friends who liked to play pretend. They had a big box that they made into a castle. Tim said he was the king and Sam was his knight. They put on fake crowns and swords and had fun.
+
+One day, a new boy came to play with them. His name was Ben. He saw the box and said he wanted to be the king. Tim said no, he was the king. Ben said he had a real crown and sword, not fake ones. He showed them his toys. They were shiny and looked real.
+
+Tim and Sam were impressed. They asked Ben if they could see his crown and sword. Ben said yes, but only if they let him be the king. Tim and Sam agreed. They gave him their fake crowns and swords and took his real ones. They put them on and felt proud.
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Now I am the king and you are my slaves. You have to do whatever I say. And you can never have your toys back. They are mine now." He laughed and went inside the box.
+
+Tim and Sam were shocked and sad. They tried to get their toys back, but Ben locked the box and said he would hit them with his sword if they came near. They cried and wished they had not let Ben be the king. They had lost their friend and their fun.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside with their dog, Spot. Spot is a big, black dog with a white spot on his chest. He is very friendly and smart.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben decide to go on a trip with Spot. They pack some snacks, water, and a ball in their backpacks. They tell their mom they are going to the park. Mom says, "Be careful and have fun. Come back before dark."
+
+Sara and Ben put on their hats and shoes. They hold hands and lead Spot by his leash. They walk along the sidewalk, past the shops, the school, and the library. They see many people, cars, and birds. They say hello to everyone they meet.
+
+They reach the park and find a big, green field. They let go of Spot's leash and let him run free. They throw the ball for him and he brings it back. They laugh and clap. They have a brilliant time.
+
+After a while, they get hungry and thirsty. They sit under a tree and open their backpacks. They share their snacks and water with Spot. They talk about their trip and how much fun they had.
+
+They hear a bell ringing. It is the ice cream truck. They get up and run to the truck. They buy some ice cream cones with their pocket money. They lick their ice cream and smile.
+
+They look at the sky and see the sun is setting. They remember what mom said. They finish their ice cream and throw away the wrappers. They call Spot and put his leash back on. They say goodbye to the ice cream man and thank him.
+
+They hold hands and lead Spot back home. They walk along the sidewalk, past the library, the school, and the shops. They see fewer people, cars, and birds. They say goodnight to everyone they meet.
+
+They reach their house and see mom waiting for them. She hugs them and asks them about their trip. They tell her everything they did and saw. She says, "I'm glad you had a brilliant time. You are very brave and smart."
+
+They go inside and wash their hands and faces. They eat some dinner and drink some milk. They brush their teeth and put on their pajamas. They cuddle with Spot on their bed. They say their prayers and close their eyes.
+
+They dream about their trip and their dog. They are happy and sleepy. They love each other very much.
+Lily and Ben were going to the park with their mom. They liked to play on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. But when they got to the bus stop, they saw a big sign that said "Bus Delay". Mom said that meant the bus was late and they had to wait.
+
+Lily and Ben were bored. They looked around for something to do. They saw a pole that had a lot of stickers on it. Some of the stickers were shiny and colorful, and some were old and torn. Lily said, "Look, Ben, these are cheap stickers. They are not pretty or good. They are bad and ugly."
+
+Ben said, "No, Lily, some of these stickers are nice. They have animals and stars and hearts. They are fun and cute. They are not bad or ugly. They are good and pretty."
+
+Lily and Ben started to argue. They each wanted to take off the stickers they liked and put them on their clothes. They pulled and tugged at the pole, trying to get the stickers. They did not see that the bus was coming.
+
+Mom saw the bus and called them. "Lily, Ben, come on, the bus is here. We have to go to the park now. Stop playing with the pole and the stickers."
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the bus. They still had some stickers in their hands. They got on the bus and sat next to Mom. Mom looked at them and smiled. She said, "You two are silly. You made a cheap pole look like a rainbow. But next time, please don't delay the bus. We don't want to miss the park."
+Tom and Lily were playing in the yard with their toys. They liked to pretend they were workers who built houses and roads. Tom had a hammer and some blocks, and Lily had a shovel and some sand.
+
+"Look, I made a big house!" Tom said, showing his blocks to Lily.
+
+"That's nice, but I made a road!" Lily said, digging a path in the sand.
+
+They were having fun, but they did not see the dark clouds in the sky. They did not hear the wind getting louder and louder. They did not feel the air getting colder and colder.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise that scared them. They looked up and saw a big, spinning thing in the sky. It was a tornado, and it was coming closer and closer to their yard.
+
+"Tom, Lily, come inside now!" their mom shouted from the door. "It's not safe out there!"
+
+Tom and Lily dropped their toys and ran to their mom. They were very afraid of the tornado. They did not know what it was or why it was there. It was a mysterious thing that they had never seen before.
+
+They went inside the house and hid in the basement with their mom. They heard the tornado roar and crash outside. They hoped it would go away soon and not hurt their toys or their house. They hugged their mom and each other and waited for the storm to pass.
+Anna liked to play in the attic. It was full of old things that belonged to her grandma and grandpa. She liked to look at the books, the toys, the clothes and the pictures. Sometimes she found something new that she had not seen before.
+
+One day, she found a big box with a lock. She wondered what was inside. She tried to open it, but it was too hard. She looked for a key, but she could not find one. She asked her grandma, who was downstairs, if she knew where the key was.
+
+"Grandma, do you know where the key for the big box in the attic is?" she called.
+
+Grandma came up the stairs and looked at the box. She smiled and said, "That is a very special box, Anna. It has something very precious inside. But you have to gain the right to open it. You have to be very good, very kind and very brave. Then, maybe, I will give you the key."
+
+Anna was curious and excited. She wanted to know what was in the box. She wanted to gain the right to open it. She decided to be very good, very kind and very brave.

+
+After a week, grandma said, "Anna, you have been very good, very kind and very brave. I am very proud of you. You have gained the right to open the box. Here is the key."
+
+Anna took the key and ran to the attic. She unlocked the box and opened it. Inside, she saw a beautiful doll with long hair and a blue dress. She also saw a note that said, "To Anna, from Grandma. This was my favorite doll when I was your age. I hope you will love her as much as I did. You are my precious treasure."
+
+Anna hugged the doll and thanked her grandma. She felt very happy and loved. She had gained a new friend and a new memory.

+
+"We left it by the big tree. It is empty now. We will bring our bucket and net later." Mia says.
+
+"Okay, kids. Be careful when you go back to the river. The boat might come again." Mom says.
+
+"Can we have some sandwiches first?" Ben says.

+
+"Give me the ruler!" Tom says. "No, it is mine!" Mia says. They pull and tug. The ruler breaks. They are sad.

+
+"But I like your top. It is pretty and fun. Please, Lily, let me have it," Ben begs.
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She likes her top, but she also likes Ben. She does not want to make him sad.
+
+"Okay, Ben, you can have my top. But only for a little while. Then you have to give it back to me," Lily says.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I will be careful with your top," Ben says.

+
+They had a lot of fun, but they also made a big mess. The napkins were everywhere on the floor, the table, and the chairs. Their mom came in and saw the mess. She was not happy. She told them to clean up and put the napkins back in the box.
+
+Tom and Lily did not want to clean up. They wanted to keep playing. They said they were sorry, but they did not mean it. They tried to hide some napkins under the sofa and behind the curtains. They hoped their mom would not see them.
+
+But their mom was not fooled. She saw the napkins they hid. She was very angry. She told them to go to their room and take a nap. She said they could not play with their toys until they learned to change their behavior.
+
+Tom and Lily were sad and mad. They did not like to take a nap. They did not like to change their behavior. They thought their mom was mean. They went to their room and lay on their beds. They did not sleep. They just cried and complained.
+
+But then, they heard a knock on the door. It was their grandma. She was elderly and kind. She had a big smile and a big hug for them. She said she came to visit and to bring them a surprise.

+Lily and Tom were playing in the backyard. They had a big box of toys and a shovel. They decided to bury some of their toys in the dirt and pretend they were treasure hunters.
+
+"Look, I found a skirt!" Lily said, holding up a pink and purple piece of cloth. "It is so pretty and shiny. I want to wear it."
+
+Tom frowned. He did not like skirts. He thought they were weird and girly. He wanted to find something cool and fun, like a car or a robot.
+
+"That is not a skirt, that is a rag," he said. "You can't wear that. It is dirty and old. Let me bury it again."
+
+He grabbed the skirt from Lily and threw it in the hole. He started to shovel dirt on top of it.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Lily cried. "That is mine. I found it. Give it back to me."
+
+She tried to pull the skirt out of the hole, but Tom pushed her away. They both fell on the ground and started to fight.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom said, coming out of the house. She saw the mess they had made and the toys they had buried. She was not happy.
+
+"What are you doing? Why are you burying your toys? And why are you fighting over a skirt?"
+
+She picked up the skirt and looked at it. She gasped.
+
+"This is not a toy. This is my skirt. I lost it last week. I was looking for it everywhere. How did you find it?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. They felt bad. They did not know it was Mom's skirt. They thought it was a toy.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," they said. "We were playing treasure hunters. We did not mean to take your skirt."
+
+Mom smiled. She was not angry anymore. She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"It's okay, my loves. I'm glad you found my skirt. It is a special skirt. It was a gift from your grandma. She made it for me when I was a little girl. Do you want to hear the story?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They loved stories. They followed Mom into the house, holding her skirt. They forgot about the toys they had buried. They wanted to hear about the skirt and the grandma. They thought it was a wonderful treasure.
+Tim and Mia liked to play with their toys in the garden. They had a ball, a helicopter, a car and a doll. Tim liked the helicopter best. He said it was fast and loud and could fly high. Mia liked the ball best. She said it was soft and round and could bounce.
+
+One day, they decided to have a race. Tim said he would use the helicopter and Mia said she would use the ball. They agreed to start at the fence and finish at the tree. Tim said he would win because the helicopter was faster than the ball. Mia said she would win because the ball was more reliable than the helicopter.
+
+They counted to three and started the race. Tim made the helicopter fly in the air and Mia threw the ball on the ground. The helicopter zoomed ahead and the ball bounced behind. Tim laughed and said he was winning. Mia frowned and said she was not giving up.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The helicopter ran out of battery and fell down. It crashed into the tree and broke into pieces. Tim was sad and angry. He cried and said his helicopter was ruined. Mia reached the tree and saw the helicopter. She was sorry and said she did not mean for that to happen.
+
+Tim did not listen to Mia. He blamed her for his helicopter. He said she threw the ball too hard and made the helicopter fall. He said she was a bad sister and he did not want to play with her anymore. He ran inside the house and slammed the door. Mia was hurt and confused. She did not know what she did wrong. She picked up the ball and the doll and hugged them. She wished Tim would be nice to her again.
+One day, a little girl named Anna went to the park with her mom. She saw a big fence with a sign that said "Do not open". She was curious and wanted to see what was behind the fence. She asked her mom if she could open the fence.
+
+"No, Anna, you can't open the fence. It is not safe. There might be something dangerous or scary behind it. You have to follow the rules and stay away from the fence," her mom said.
+
+Anna was not happy. She wanted to open the fence and have an adventure. She waited until her mom was busy talking to another mom. Then she sneaked to the fence and opened it. She saw a big dog with brown fur and black spots. The dog looked angry and barked loudly. Anna was scared and ran back to her mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, there is a big dog behind the fence. It is scary and loud. I opened the fence and it chased me," Anna cried.
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "Oh, Anna, I told you not to open the fence. You could have been hurt by the dog. You have to listen to me and obey the rules. They are there to protect you and keep you safe. I'm glad you are okay, but you have to be more careful and respectful next time."
+
+Anna felt sorry and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was wrong to open the fence. I won't do it again. I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Anna. You are a good girl. But you have to learn from your mistakes and be more responsible. Come on, let's go and play with the other kids. Maybe you can make a new friend who is kind and likes dogs."
+
+Anna nodded and followed her mom. She learned a lesson that day. She learned that opening the fence was not a good idea. She learned that rules are important and that she should listen to her mom. She also learned that dogs can be scary or friendly, depending on how you treat them. She hoped to meet a kind dog someday and pet it gently. She was happy to go and play with the other kids and have fun. She was a good girl.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had a blue dress and yellow hair. Lily took Anna everywhere she went.
+
+One day, Lily and Anna went to the park with Lily's mom. Lily's mom was a kind woman who loved Lily very much. But she was also anxious. She had a lot of work to do and not much time. She told Lily to play nicely and not to go too far.
+
+Lily and Anna found a big slide. They climbed up and slid down. It was fun. They did it again and again. But then, Lily saw a big dog. The dog was barking and running. Lily was scared. She dropped Anna and ran to her mom.
+
+Lily's mom saw Lily and hugged her. She asked her what was wrong. Lily pointed to the dog. Lily's mom said, "Don't worry, honey. The dog is just playing. He won't hurt you. But where is Anna?"
+
+Lily remembered Anna. She left her on the slide. She felt sad. She wanted Anna back. She told her mom, "I want Anna. I miss Anna."
+
+Lily's mom said, "Let's go get Anna. Maybe she is resting on the slide. Come on, honey. I'll hold your hand."
+
+Lily and her mom walked to the slide. They saw Anna. She was still on the slide. She was not hurt. She was just resting. Lily was happy. She ran to Anna and picked her up. She hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I love you."
+
+Lily's mom smiled. She was not anxious anymore. She was glad that Lily and Anna were safe and happy. She said, "Let's go home, honey. It's time for a snack. And maybe a nap. You and Anna need some rest."
+Tim and Mia liked to play with their bears. They had many bears of different colors and sizes. They liked to count their bears and see who had more. One day, they decided to play in the basement, where there was a big box of old toys.
+
+"Let's count our bears in the box," Tim said. "Maybe we can find more bears to play with."
+
+"OK," Mia said. "But it is dark and cold in the basement. I am scared."
+
+"Don't be scared," Tim said. "I have a flashlight. Come on, follow me."
+
+They went down the stairs and opened the box. They saw many toys, but no bears. They dug deeper and deeper, but still no bears.
+
+"Where are the bears?" Mia asked.
+
+"I don't know," Tim said. "Maybe they are hiding. Let's look more."
+
+They pushed the toys aside and reached the bottom of the box. There, they saw something furry and brown. It looked like a big bear.
+
+"Look, Mia, a bear!" Tim said. "Let's count it."
+
+He reached out his hand to touch the bear. But the bear was not a toy. It was a real bear. It had been sleeping in the box, but now it was awake. It was angry and hungry. It roared and showed its teeth.
+
+"Help!" Tim screamed. "It is a real bear! It is not a toy!"
+
+Mia was too scared to move. She could not run or scream. She could only watch as the bear bit Tim's hand and dragged him into the box. She heard Tim cry and the bear growl. She knew Tim was gone. She knew she was next. She wished they had never gone to the basement. She wished they had never counted the bears.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with blocks. They want to build a big tower with all the blocks. They work together and help each other. They put one block on top of another block, and another, and another.
+
+"Look, our tower is so big!" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "Let's make it bigger!"

+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is their dog, Rex. Rex is big and furry. He likes to play, too. But he does not know about the blocks. He runs into the room and sees the tower. He thinks it is a toy. He jumps and barks and tries to catch the top block.
+
+"Rex, no!" Anna and Ben shout. "Stop! You will tip the tower!"
+
+But Rex does not listen. He knocks down the tower with his paw. The blocks fall and crash. Anna and Ben are sad and angry. Their tower is gone.
+
+"Bad dog!" Anna says. "You ruined our tower!"
+
+"Go away!" Ben says. "You are not our friend!"
+
+Rex looks at them with his big eyes. He does not understand. He thinks they are playing, too. He wags his tail and licks their faces. He wants to say sorry and make them happy.
+
+Anna and Ben see Rex's face. They feel sorry for him. He did not mean to be bad. He just wanted to have fun.
+
+"It's okay, Rex," Anna says. "We know you love us."
+
+"Yes, we love you, too," Ben says. "But next time, please be careful with our blocks."
+
+They hug Rex and pet him. Then they pick up the blocks and start to build a new tower. They make it bigger and stronger. They leave some blocks for Rex to play with. They all play together and help each other. They are happy and proud.

+
+One day, they were drawing animals. Lily drew a cat with stripes and a long tail. Sam drew a dog with spots and a short tail. They showed each other their pictures and said they were good.
+
+But Sam was jealous of Lily's eraser. He wanted to have one too. He thought Lily's cat was better than his dog. He wished he could erase his dog and draw a cat. He looked at Lily's eraser and had a bad idea.
+
+When Lily was not looking, he took her eraser and hid it in his pocket. He thought Lily would not notice. He was wrong.
+
+Lily saw that her eraser was gone. She looked around and saw a hole in Sam's pocket. She saw a bit of her eraser sticking out. She was angry and sad. She said to Sam, "You took my eraser! That is not nice! Give it back to me!"
+
+Sam felt ashamed and scared. He did not want to lose Lily's friendship. He did not know what to say. He tried to pull the eraser out of his pocket, but it was stuck. He pulled harder and harder, until he heard a snap. He broke the eraser in two.
+
+Lily and Sam both cried. They were sorry for what they did. They hugged and said they were sorry. They decided to share the eraser and the cloth. They drew more pictures and made up. They learned to be happy with what they had and not to be jealous of others.

+
+Tom does not listen to Mia. He keeps making loud noises with his truck. He drives his truck around the sofa, the table, and the chair. He sees a screw on the floor.

+
+Mia sees the screw too. She knows it is not part of Tom's truck. She knows it is part of the lamp. She says, "Tom, that is not a screw for your truck. That is a screw for the lamp. If you take it out, the lamp will fall down and break. Give it back to me." She tries to take the screw from Tom.
+
+Tom does not want to give the screw to Mia. He says, "No, Mia, this is my screw. I found it first. It is mine." He runs away from Mia with the screw. Mia runs after him. She says, "Tom, stop, stop, give me the screw. You are making a big mess." She follows him around the living room.
+

+
+"Can we go up there, mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful and stay close to us," mom says.
+
+Ben and Lily run up the hill, holding hands. They feel the sun on their faces and the wind in their hair. They laugh and sing as they go higher and higher. When they reach the top, they see a blue lake with ducks and geese. They also see a big tree with red apples.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lily says.
+
+"Can we pick some apples, dad?" Ben asks.
+

+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they found a big hole in the ground. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a treasure!" Tom said.
+
+"Or a dinosaur bone!" Lily said.
+
+They decided to dig deeper with their shovels. They worked hard and made the hole bigger. Then they saw something shiny and brown.
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"It looks like an armchair!" Lily said.
+
+They pulled the armchair out of the hole. It was very old and dusty, but it had gold buttons and a soft cushion. It looked like a rich person's armchair.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Tom said.
+
+"Can we keep it?" Lily asked.
+
+They dragged the armchair to their porch. They cleaned it with a cloth and water. They sat on it and pretended to be kings and queens.
+
+"Hello, I am King Tom and this is my throne!" Tom said.
+
+"And I am Queen Lily and this is my throne too!" Lily said.
+
+They had fun playing with the armchair. They did not know that it belonged to their grandpa, who had buried it in the garden many years ago. He had forgotten about it until he saw them on the porch.
+
+"Hey, kids, where did you find that armchair?" he asked.
+
+"In the hole, grandpa!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"That was my armchair when I was young. I buried it because I did not want anyone to take it. It was very special to me." he said.
+
+"Can we have it, grandpa?" Tom and Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. It is yours now. You can share it and take good care of it. It is a family treasure." he said.
+
+He hugged them and smiled. He was happy to see them enjoy his armchair. He told them stories about his past and how he got the armchair. They listened and learned. They loved their grandpa and his armchair.
+Sara and Tom were playing with their crayons. They liked to mark on paper and make pictures. Sara made a picture of a flower. Tom made a picture of a car.
+
+"Look at my flower!" Sara said. "It is red and yellow and pretty."
+
+"Look at my car!" Tom said. "It is blue and fast and cool."
+
+They showed each other their pictures. They smiled and said nice things.
+
+Then Sara saw something on the wall. It was a mark. A big, green mark. It looked like a vegetable.
+
+"Who did that?" Sara asked. "Who marked on the wall?"
+
+Tom looked at the wall. He looked at his crayon. He looked at Sara. He felt pale.
+
+"I did it," he said. "I'm sorry. I wanted to make a broccoli."
+
+Sara was angry. She liked the wall. It was white and clean. She did not like the mark. It was ugly and messy.
+
+"That's bad!" she said. "You can't mark on the wall. That's naughty. Mommy will be mad."
+
+Tom was sad. He liked Sara. He did not want to make her angry. He did not want to be naughty. He did not want Mommy to be mad.
+
+"I'm sorry," he said again. "I didn't mean to. Can we erase it?"
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She was still angry, but she was also kind. She liked Tom. He was her friend.
+
+"OK," she said. "Let's try to erase it. But don't do it again. Only mark on paper."
+
+They got a cloth and some water. They rubbed the wall. The mark faded a little, but not much.
+
+"Maybe Mommy won't see it," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe," Sara said. "But we have to tell her. It's the right thing to do."
+
+They held hands and went to find Mommy. They hoped she would not be too mad. They hoped she would still love them. They learned a lesson. They never marked on the wall again.

+Their friends see them. They see their uniform. They think Tom and Lily look boring and plain. They tease them. They say, "You look silly. You are not creative and have fun. We do not like your clothes. Why do you wear your uniform? It is not a special day for you."
+
+Tom and Lily feel sad and hurt. They do not understand why their friends are mean. They like their friends. They like their uniform. They do not want to fight. They want to play. They want to be happy.

+Then they saw a man running towards them. He was the dog's owner. He was sorry and embarrassed.
+
+"I'm so sorry, kids. My dog ran away from me. He loves water and animals. He did not mean to bother you," the man said.

+He grabbed the dog's collar and pulled him out of the pond. He apologized again and walked away with the dog.

+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw Lily and Ben fighting over the TV. She was not happy.
+
+"Enough, you two! You are making too much noise and you are not sharing. Why don't you record one show and watch the other one later?" Mom said.
+
+"Record?" Lily and Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, record. Look, there is a button on the remote that says record. If you press it, the TV will save the show for you. Then you can watch it when you want. But you have to take turns. Lily, you can watch the fairy show now and Ben can record the car show. Then, Ben, you can watch the car show later and Lily can record the fairy show. OK?" Mom explained.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the remote and saw the record button. They thought it was a good idea. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They decided to take turns and record the shows they liked.

+"We are exploring," Lily said. "Who are you?"
+
+"I am the keeper of the hill," he said. "I live here and watch over the secrets of the earth. Do you want to hear a story?"

+
+Lily and Ben feel sad. They say sorry to Mom. They say sorry to each other. They hug and make up.
+
+Mom smiles. She has an idea. She buys two smaller balls. One is red. One is blue. She gives them to Lily and Ben.

+
+Ben is not scared of the dog. He says, "Anna, the dog is not mean. It is just playing. It wants to be our friend. Look, it has a ball in its mouth. Maybe we can throw the ball for the dog."
+
+Anna shakes her head. She says, "No, Ben, I don't want to play with the dog. It might bite us. Please, let's go to the swings."
+
+Ben nods his head. He says, "OK, Anna, we can go to the swings. But first, let's give the dog some jam. I have a jar of jam in my backpack. Dogs like jam. Maybe the jam will make the dog happy and quiet."
+
+Anna says, "Are you sure, Ben? Jam is sweet and sticky. I like jam. I don't want to give it to the dog."
+
+Ben says, "Don't worry, Anna. We have enough jam for us and the dog. Come on, let's try."
+
+Anna and Ben go near the dog. Ben opens the jar of jam and holds it out to the dog. The dog stops barking and sniffs the jam. It licks the jam with its tongue. It wags its tail and makes a happy sound.
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They say, "Good dog, good dog. You are a nice dog. Do you want more jam?"
+
+The dog nods its head. It wants more jam. Anna and Ben give the dog more jam. They pet the dog and play with the ball. The dog is friendly and gentle. Anna is not scared of the dog anymore.

+
+But then, another swan came. The other swan was gray and small and had a short neck. The other swan wanted some bread too. But the white swan did not want to share. The white swan was jealous. The white swan bit the gray swan and chased it away. The gray swan cried and flew away.
+
+Sara was sad and angry. She said to the white swan, "That was not nice. You should share the bread. The gray swan was hungry too. You are a bad swan."
+
+Her mom said, "Sara, you are right. The white swan was greedy and rude. We should not give it any more bread. Let's go home and bake something else."
+
+They went home and baked some cupcakes. Sara decorated them with sprinkles and frosting. She gave some to her friends and some to the gray swan. The gray swan was happy and thanked Sara. Sara said, "You are welcome. You are a good swan."

+Lily was happy. She saw Anna and picked her up. She hugged her and kissed her.
+
+"Anna, you are back!" she exclaimed. "I missed you so much!"
+
+She looked at Tom and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Tom," she said. "You are not mean. You are nice."
+
+Tom smiled back. He was glad that Lily was happy. He gave her the ray gun and said.
+
+"Here, Lily. You can have this. You can play with it and make your dolls shrink and grow. But be careful, okay?"
+
+Lily nodded. She took the ray gun and thanked Tom again. She put Anna on her bed and said.
+
+"Come on, Anna. Let's play. You are my best friend and I love you."
+Mira and Ravi were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and water the plants. Mira saw a big white thing in the ground. It looked like a flower, but not a pretty one.
+
+"What is that?" she asked Ravi.
+
+"That is a cauliflower," Ravi said. "Mama grows it for dinner. She says it is good for us."
+
+Mira made a face. She did not like cauliflower. It tasted bad and smelled funny. She wanted to get rid of it.
+
+"Let's push it out," she said to Ravi. "Maybe it will fly away."
+
+Ravi nodded. He did not like cauliflower either. They both pushed hard on the cauliflower. It did not move. They pushed harder. It still did not move. They pushed with all their strength. It finally moved, but not the way they wanted.
+
+The cauliflower popped out of the ground and hit Mama in the face. She was coming to check on them. She was very surprised and angry.
+
+"Mira! Ravi! What are you doing?" she shouted. "Why did you push my cauliflower?"
+
+Mira and Ravi looked at each other. They did not know what to say. They had done something very unusual and bad. They felt sorry for Mama and the cauliflower.
+
+"We are sorry, Mama," they said together. "We did not like the cauliflower. We wanted it to go away."
+
+Mama sighed. She wiped the dirt off her face and picked up the cauliflower. She hugged Mira and Ravi.
+
+"I know you do not like cauliflower, but you should not push it out of the ground. It is a waste of food and it hurts me. Next time, you can tell me and I will try to make it more tasty for you. Maybe with cheese or sauce. OK?"
+
+Mira and Ravi nodded. They said sorry again. They learned their lesson. They did not push any more cauliflowers. They tried to eat them with cheese or sauce. Sometimes they liked them, sometimes they did not. But they always loved Mama.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the snow. They wear warm hats, coats, boots and gloves. They make a big snowman with a carrot nose and a scarf.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so happy!" Sara says.
+
+"Yes, he is! But he needs eyes and a mouth," Ben says.
+
+They look around for something to use. They see a bag of salt on the porch. Mama uses salt to melt the ice on the steps.
+
+"Let's use salt for the eyes and the mouth!" Sara says.
+
+They run to the porch and grab the bag of salt. They pour some salt on the snowman's face. They make two round eyes and a smiley mouth.
+
+"There, now he can see and talk!" Ben says.
+
+They stand back and admire their snowman.
+
+"Hello, Sara and Ben!" the snowman says.
+
+Sara and Ben are surprised. They look at each other and then at the snowman.
+
+"Did you just talk?" Sara asks.
+
+"Yes, I did! Thank you for making me and giving me salt. Salt is very tasty and makes me feel alive!" the snowman says.
+
+Sara and Ben are happy. They have a new friend.
+
+"You're welcome, Mr. Snowman! We're glad you like salt. Do you want to play with us?" Ben asks.
+
+"Of course, I do! But we have to be quick. The sun is coming out and it will make me melt. I don't like the sun. It is too hot and bright. I like the snow. It is cold and white," the snowman says.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They understand. They don't like the sun either. It hurts their eyes and makes them sweat.
+
+"OK, Mr. Snowman, let's play! What do you want to do?" Sara asks.
+
+"Hmm, how about we make some snowballs and throw them at each other? That sounds like fun!" the snowman says.
+
+Sara and Ben agree. They make some snowballs and start a snowball fight. They laugh and have fun. They forget about the sun and the time. They only care about their snowman friend and the snow. They are very happy.
+Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with puzzles. They had many puzzles with animals, cars, and flowers. They could make the puzzles very fast.
+
+One day, they found a new puzzle in the toy box. It was very big and had many pieces. It had a picture of a castle with a dragon. Anna and Ben wanted to make the puzzle, but they did not know how.
+
+"Let's ask Mom for help," Anna said. "She is very good at puzzles."
+
+"No, let's do it by ourselves," Ben said. "We are big kids. We can make the puzzle."
+
+Anna and Ben decided to try the puzzle without help. They took out the pieces and looked for the edges. They tried to match the colors and shapes. But the puzzle was very hard. They could not find the right pieces. They got frustrated and angry.
+
+"This puzzle is too hard!" Anna said. "I don't like it. I want to play with something else."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. "This puzzle is no fun. Let's put it away."
+
+They put the pieces back in the box and looked for another toy. They saw a stuffed dragon on the shelf. It was green and red and had shiny scales. It looked like the dragon in the puzzle.
+
+"Wow, look at this dragon!" Anna said. "It is so cool. Can we play with it?"
+
+"Sure, let's play with it," Ben said. "It is much better than the puzzle."
+
+They took the dragon and pretended to fly with it. They made roaring noises and had fun. They did not notice that the dragon had a tag on its tail. The tag said: "This dragon is part of the puzzle. Find the other pieces and make the puzzle to see the whole picture."
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play in Lily's room. Lily has a big rug with many colors. Ben has a small car that can go fast.
+
+One day, they play a game. Lily says, "I dare you to drive your car on the rug and make a jump." Ben says, "OK, I can do that." He drives his car on the rug and makes a jump. He lands on the other side of the rug. He is happy. He says, "That was fun!"
+
+Lily says, "Now I dare you to drive your car on the rug and make a loop." Ben says, "What is a loop?" Lily says, "A loop is when you go upside down and then right side up." Ben says, "That sounds hard." He is not sure if he can do that.
+
+He tries to drive his car on the rug and make a loop. He goes up and up and up. But he does not go upside down. He falls down and his car breaks. He is sad. He says, "I can't do that."
+
+Lily says, "It's OK, Ben. You don't have to do that. You are still my best friend." She gives him a hug. She says, "I have another car that you can play with. It is blue and shiny." Ben says, "Thank you, Lily. You are very nice." He takes the blue car and smiles. He says, "I like this car. It is pretty."
+
+They play with the blue car on the rug. They make jumps and turns and noises. They are happy. They are best friends.
+Sara and Tom were playing with their dolls in the garden. Sara had a chubby doll with a pink dress and a hat. Tom had a skinny doll with a blue shirt and pants. They liked to pretend that their dolls were friends and went on adventures together.
+
+One day, they decided to make a tent for their dolls with a big blanket and some sticks. They found a nice spot under a tree and started to build their tent. Sara held the blanket while Tom stuck the sticks in the ground. They worked hard and soon they had a cozy tent for their dolls.
+
+"Look, our dolls have a new home!" Sara said happily. She put her doll inside the tent and made her lie down on a pillow. "She is very tired from the adventure. She needs a nap."
+
+Tom put his doll next to Sara's doll and made him sit up. "He is not tired. He wants to play more. He wants to rise and explore the garden."
+
+"No, he can't!" Sara said. "He has to stay in the tent and be quiet. My doll has a stitch in her arm. She got hurt by a thorn. She needs to rest and heal."
+
+Tom did not like that. He wanted to have fun with his doll. He did not care about Sara's doll's stitch. He grabbed his doll and tried to pull him out of the tent. "He does not have to listen to you. He can do what he wants. He is brave and strong."
+
+Sara was angry. She held her doll and tried to keep him in the tent. "He has to listen to me. I am his friend. He is rude and mean."
+
+They started to tug and pull on their dolls. They did not notice that the blanket was slipping off the sticks. Suddenly, the tent collapsed and the blanket fell on them and their dolls. They were trapped under the blanket. They could not see anything. They felt scared and sorry.
+
+They stopped fighting and started to cry. They called for their mom. Their mom heard them and came to the garden. She lifted the blanket and saw them and their dolls. She hugged them and comforted them.
+
+She asked them what happened. They told her that they were playing with their dolls and made a tent, but then they had a fight and the tent fell on them. They said they were sorry and that they loved each other and their dolls.
+
+Their mom smiled and kissed them. She said they were good children and that they should always be kind and gentle with each other and their dolls. She said she was proud of them for making a tent and having an adventure. She said she would help them fix their dolls' clothes and stitch Sara's doll's arm. She said they could play more in the garden after they had a snack.
+
+Sara and Tom nodded and smiled. They thanked their mom and said they were hungry. They took their dolls and followed their mom to the house. They held hands and walked together. They were happy and friends again.
+Anna and her mom were at the airport. They had to say goodbye to dad. He had to go to another place for work. Anna did not want dad to go. She hugged him and said, "Please stay with us, dad. I love you."
+
+Dad hugged Anna and mom and said, "I love you too, sweetie. But I have to go for a little while. I will come back soon. You can call me and write to me. And I will send you pictures and gifts. You are my perfect girl."
+
+Anna and mom watched dad go through the gate. They waved and blew kisses. Anna felt sad and tears came to her eyes. She started to weep. Mom hugged her and said, "It's okay to weep, Anna. I feel sad too. But we have each other. And we have dad in our hearts. He will be back before you know it. Let's go home and make some cookies. How does that sound?"
+
+Anna nodded and wiped her tears. She said, "Okay, mom. I like cookies. And I like you and dad. Can we call him when we get home?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Of course we can, Anna. Come on, let's go. We have a lot of love to share." They took their bags and left the airport. They looked forward to talking to dad and seeing him again.
+Lila was a humble girl who liked to help her mom and dad. She did not have many toys, but she was happy with what she had. She liked to play with her doll, her ball, and her book. She knew how to share and say sorry.
+
+One day, a new boy moved in next door. His name was Max. He had many toys, but he did not like to share. He liked to show off and tease. He saw Lila playing with her doll and said, "That doll is ugly and old. Look at my robot. It can talk and move. You are poor and silly."
+
+Lila felt sad and angry. She wanted to say something mean back, but she remembered what her mom and dad taught her. She said, "I like my doll. She is my friend. You can play with her if you want. But you have to be nice and gentle."
+
+Max was surprised. He did not expect Lila to be so kind. He felt ashamed of his words. He said, "I'm sorry. I was rude. Can I play with you?" Lila smiled and nodded. She gave him her doll and took his robot. They played together and had fun. They learned how to be friends.
+
+Lila and Max became good neighbors. They shared their toys and their stories. They helped each other and said thank you. They knew how to be humble and happy. They found peace in their hearts.
+Tom and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They were very lively and happy. They saw some birds and flowers and said hello to them.
+
+"Look, Mia, a big dog!" Tom said, pointing to a furry animal. "Can we pet it?"
+
+Mia nodded and they ran to the dog. The dog was friendly and licked their hands. They giggled and stroked its fur.
+
+"Hello, doggy, what is your name?" Mia asked.
+
+The dog barked and wagged its tail. It looked at them with big eyes.
+
+"I think he likes us," Tom said. "Do you want to play with us, doggy?"
+
+The dog barked again and followed them to the swings. They took turns pushing each other and the dog. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was a car horn. The dog got scared and ran away. Tom and Mia chased after it.
+
+"Come back, doggy, don't be afraid!" they shouted.
+
+But the dog was too fast. It ran across the street and disappeared. Tom and Mia stopped at the curb. They felt sad and worried.
+
+"Where did he go?" Mia asked.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe he went home."
+
+They looked around, but they could not see the dog. They felt a little cold and hungry. They trembled and hugged each other.
+
+"Let's go back to the park," Tom said. "Maybe he will come back later."
+
+"OK," Mia said. "Maybe we can find him after lunch."
+
+They walked back to the park, holding hands. They hoped the dog was safe and happy. They still wanted to play with him. They missed him.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But sometimes they get bored.
+
+"Ben, I want to do something new," Anna says.
+
+"Me too," Ben says. "What can we do?"
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She has an idea. She suggests, "Let's go downstairs and see what Mom is doing. Maybe she has a surprise for us."
+
+Ben likes surprises. He nods and smiles. He follows Anna to the door. They open the door and see the stairs.
+
+The stairs are big and steep. Anna and Ben are a little scared. They hold hands and go down slowly. They are careful not to fall.
+
+They reach the bottom of the stairs. They see Mom in the kitchen. She is making cookies. She smells the cookies and smiles.
+
+"Hello, Anna and Ben," Mom says. "What are you doing here?"
+
+Anna and Ben are honest. They tell Mom, "We were bored in our room. We wanted to see you. And maybe get a surprise."
+
+Mom laughs and hugs them. She says, "You are very brave to come down the stairs by yourselves. And you are very honest to tell me the truth. I have a surprise for you. You can help me decorate the cookies. And then you can eat some. How does that sound?"
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They say, "That sounds great, Mom. Thank you. We love you."
+
+They help Mom with the cookies. They have fun. They are not bored anymore.
+Mia and Ben are twins. They share a room and a bed. One night, they hear a loud noise. It sounds like a big truck. They wake up and feel scared.
+
+"Ben, what is that?" Mia asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a monster," Ben says.
+
+They hug each other and hide under the blanket. They hope the noise will go away.
+
+But the noise does not go away. It gets closer and closer. They hear a knock on the door. They feel very uncomfortable.
+
+"Who is it?" Mia whispers.
+
+"It is me, Daddy," a voice says.
+
+They peek out of the blanket. They see their daddy smiling. He has a big bag in his hand.
+
+"Daddy, what are you doing?" Ben asks.
+
+"I have a surprise for you. I brought you some candy from my trip. Do you want some?" Daddy says.
+
+Mia and Ben jump out of the bed. They run to their daddy and hug him. They are happy to see him. They are not scared anymore.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes! We want some candy!" they say.
+
+Daddy opens the bag and gives them each a piece of candy. They taste sweet and yummy. They thank their daddy and tell him they missed him.
+
+"I missed you too, my little ones. Now, let's go back to bed. It is late and you need to sleep," Daddy says.
+
+He tucks them in and kisses them goodnight. He turns off the light and leaves the room.
+
+Mia and Ben snuggle in their bed. They feel warm and cozy. They eat their candy and smile. They are not uncomfortable anymore. They are happy. They fall asleep.
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park together. One day, they saw a big slide. Ben wanted to go on it, but Lily was scared.
+
+"Come on, Lily, it's fun!" Ben said. "I will go first and show you. Then you can follow me. Trust me, it's not scary at all."
+
+Lily nodded, but she felt nervous. She watched Ben climb up the ladder and slide down. He laughed and waved at her.
+
+"See? It's easy!" he said. "Now it's your turn. Give me your hand and I will help you."
+
+Lily took a deep breath and reached for Ben's hand. But then she saw something that made her scream. Ben's hand was filthy! It was covered in mud and worms and bugs. He had slid through a dirty puddle at the end of the slide.
+
+"Yuck! Gross! Let go of me!" Lily cried. She pulled her hand away and ran to the swings. She did not want to touch Ben's filthy hand.
+
+Ben felt sad and confused. He did not understand why Lily was so mad at him. He thought the puddle was fun and funny. He tried to wipe his hand on his shirt, but it only made it worse.
+
+"Lily, wait! I'm sorry! I didn't know!" he called. But Lily did not listen. She did not want to play with Ben anymore. She did not trust him.
+Bobby liked to spin his toy shrimp. He thought it was fun to watch it go round and round. He liked the colors and the feel of it in his hand. He spun it every day, even when his mom told him to stop.
+
+One day, he took his toy shrimp to the park. He wanted to show it to his friends. He saw Lisa and Tom playing with a ball. He ran to them and said, "Look at my toy shrimp! It can spin really fast! It is powerful!"
+
+Lisa and Tom looked at his toy shrimp. They did not think it was cool. They thought it was silly and small. They laughed at Bobby and said, "That is not a toy! That is a baby thing! You are a baby, Bobby! Go away!"
+
+Bobby felt sad and angry. He did not like being called a baby. He wanted to prove them wrong. He said, "No, I am not a baby! My toy shrimp is better than your ball! Watch this!" He spun his toy shrimp as hard as he could. He threw it at the ball, hoping to knock it away.
+
+But his toy shrimp was not powerful enough. It bounced off the ball and flew into the air. It landed on a big dog that was passing by. The dog did not like being hit by a toy shrimp. It growled and barked. It chased Bobby and bit his leg.
+
+Bobby screamed and cried. He dropped his toy shrimp and ran to his mom. His mom hugged him and took him to the doctor. His leg was hurt and bleeding. He had to get a bandage and a shot. He wished he had not spun his toy shrimp. He wished he had listened to his mom. He learned a hard lesson that day.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the garden. They had a big box and some paper. They pretended the box was a truck and the paper was mail. They took turns to deliver the mail to the flowers and the trees.
+
+"Here you go, Mr. Sunflower," Lily said, giving a paper to a yellow flower. "This is a letter from your friend, Ms. Daisy."
+
+"Thank you, Lily," the sunflower said, smiling. "You are a very good mail carrier."
+
+Sam drove the box truck to a big tree. He had a paper for the tree too. "Hello, Mrs. Oak," he said, handing the paper to a branch. "This is a bill from the water company. You have to pay for the water you drink."
+
+"Oh, no," the tree said, frowning. "I don't have any money. How can I pay for the water?"
+
+Lily and Sam felt sorry for the tree. They wanted to help her. They looked around and saw a hose. They had an idea.
+
+"Mrs. Oak, don't worry," Lily said. "We have a gift for you. We will deliver some water to you for free."
+
+They ran to the hose and turned it on. They sprayed water on the tree and the flowers. The tree and the flowers were very happy. They thanked Lily and Sam for their kindness.
+
+Lily and Sam were happy too. They had fun delivering mail and water. But they were also very tired. They turned off the hose and put the box and the paper away. They went inside the house and had a snack. They told their mom about their game.
+
+"That sounds like a wonderful game," their mom said. "You are very good at delivering things. But now it's time for a nap. You must be very tired."
+
+Lily and Sam nodded. They were very tired. They went to their beds and fell asleep. They dreamed of delivering more things to their friends in the garden.
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. They have a big box of blocks, a doll, a car, and a ball. They like to build towers, make houses, and roll the ball.
+
+"Look, Mia, I made a tall tower!" Tom says, showing his blocks. "It is very strong and big!"
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is a good tower!" Mia says. "Can I help you make it bigger?"
+
+"Yes, you can, Mia. Here, take some blocks and put them on top." Tom says, giving her some blocks.
+
+They work together to make the tower bigger and bigger. They are having fun and laughing.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise from the kitchen. It is their mom, who is sewing a dress. She has a needle and a thread, and she is making stitches.
+
+"Ouch!" their mom says. "I hurt my finger with the needle! It is bleeding!"
+
+Tom and Mia stop playing and run to the kitchen. They see their mom holding her finger and looking sad.
+
+"Mom, are you okay?" Tom asks, worried.
+
+"Mom, do you need a hug?" Mia asks, caring.
+
+Their mom smiles and hugs them. "I'm okay, my loves. It is just a small cut. But thank you for coming to see me. You are very sweet and kind."
+
+She takes a band-aid from the drawer and puts it on her finger. The band-aid has a picture of a star that glows in the dark.
+
+"Look, Tom and Mia, this is a special band-aid. It can glow when it is dark. Do you want to see?" their mom says, turning off the light.
+
+Tom and Mia nod and look at the band-aid. It glows with a soft light, like a little star.
+
+"Wow, mom, that is a cool band-aid!" Tom says, amazed.
+
+"It is very pretty, mom!" Mia says, admiring.
+
+Their mom turns on the light and kisses them. "I'm glad you like it. It will help my finger heal faster. Now, do you want to go back to playing with your toys?"
+
+"Yes, mom, we do!" Tom and Mia say, excited.
+
+They run back to the living room and pick up their toys. They decide to make a house for the doll, a garage for the car, and a ball pit for the ball. They use the blocks, the flexible cushions, and the blankets. They are having fun and laughing again.
+Tom and Mia liked to play space. They had a big box that they made into a rocket. They put on helmets and suits and pretended to fly to the stars. They saw many incredible things, like planets, moons and comets.
+
+One day, they landed on a new planet. It was green and had many trees and flowers. They got out of the rocket and explored. They saw some animals that looked like big cats, but with stripes and spots. They were curious and wanted to pet them.
+
+"Hello, kitty," Mia said, and reached out her hand. But the kitty did not like that. It opened its mouth and roared very loud. Tom and Mia were scared and ran back to the rocket.
+
+"That was not a kitty, that was a tiger!" Tom said. "And that one was a leopard!"
+
+"They are not nice," Mia said. "They are mean and scary."
+
+They decided to leave the planet and find a nicer one. They got into the rocket and blasted off. They looked out the window and saw the tigers and leopards roaring at them.
+
+"Bye-bye, kitties," Tom and Mia said. "We are going to space!"
+Sara likes to organize her toys. She has a box for dolls, a box for cars, and a box for blocks. She puts each toy in the right box. She feels great when she is done.
+
+One day, she finds a bug in her room. It is small and green and has six legs. She thinks it is cute. She wants to keep it as a pet. She says, "Hello, bug. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The bug does not answer. It crawls on the floor. Sara follows it. She tries to catch it in her hand. But the bug is fast and smart. It hides under the bed.
+
+Sara looks under the bed. She sees many things. She sees dust, socks, books, and more toys. She thinks, "This is a mess. I need to organize this too."
+
+She takes out everything from under the bed. She makes a pile on the floor. She starts to sort them. She puts the dust in the trash, the socks in the laundry, the books on the shelf, and the toys in the boxes.
+
+She looks for the bug. She hopes it is still there. She finds it on a block. It is still small and green and has six legs. She smiles. She says, "You are a good bug. You helped me organize. You can stay with me."
+
+She puts the bug on a leaf. She puts the leaf in a jar. She makes holes in the lid. She gives the bug some water and some crumbs. She says, "This is your home now. I will take care of you. You are my pet."
+
+The bug does not say anything. But it wiggles its legs. Sara thinks it is happy. She is happy too. She has a new friend. She has a great day.
+Anna likes to read novels. Novels are big books with many words and pictures. Anna has many novels in her room. She reads them every day.
+
+One day, Anna's friend Lily comes to play. Lily sees Anna's novels and wants to read them too. Anna is happy to share. She lends Lily a novel. Lily says thank you and starts to read.

+
+Anna is surprised. She likes the novel. She thinks it is exciting and fun. She does not understand why Lily thinks it is terrible. She asks Lily why she does not like it.
+
+Lily says she likes novels that are happy and funny. She likes novels that make her laugh and smile. She does not like novels that make her scared and sad. She asks Anna if she has any novels like that.
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She remembers that she has a novel that is happy and funny. It is about a silly dog that does funny things. She thinks Lily will like it. She lends Lily the novel. Lily says thank you and starts to read.
+
+This time, Lily likes the novel. She thinks it is great. The novel makes her laugh and smile. She is not afraid of the silly dog. She wants to read more. She tells Anna that she likes the novel.

+Sam and Ben were brothers who liked to play outside. One day, they decided to make a camp in the woods behind their house. They took some sticks, some rocks, and some blankets and built a small tent. They were very proud of their camp and wanted to name it.
+
+"What should we name our camp?" Sam asked Ben.
+
+"Let's name it Wild Camp, because we are wild and brave!" Ben said.
+
+"OK, Wild Camp it is!" Sam agreed.
+
+They went inside their tent and pretended to be explorers. They made noises like animals and told stories. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But they did not notice that it was getting dark and cold. They also did not hear their mom calling them for dinner. They were too busy playing.
+
+Soon, they started to feel hungry and scared. They could not see anything outside their tent. They heard strange sounds in the woods. They wished they were at home.
+
+"Sam, I want to go home," Ben said.
+
+"Me too, Ben," Sam said.
+
+They crawled out of their tent and tried to find their way back. But they were lost. They did not know which direction to go. They started to cry.
+
+"Sam! Ben! Where are you?" They heard their mom's voice. She had a flashlight and was looking for them.
+
+"Mom! Mom! We are here!" They shouted.
+
+Their mom found them and hugged them. She was very worried and angry.
+
+"What were you thinking? You should not go to the woods without telling me. You could have been hurt or lost. You are not wild and brave, you are silly and careless!" She scolded them.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," Sam said.
+
+"I'm sorry, too, mom," Ben said.
+
+They followed their mom back to their house. They ate their dinner and went to bed. They learned their lesson. They realized that being wild and brave is not as important as being safe and smart. They also learned to listen to their mom and respect her rules. They never went to the woods without her again. They still played outside, but they stayed close to their house. They also changed the name of their camp.
+
+They called it Cozy Camp, because they were cozy and happy.
+Tom is a young boy who likes to play with his toys. He has a lot of cars, trucks, and trains that he makes noises with. He also has a teddy bear that he hugs and talks to. He loves his teddy bear very much.
+
+One day, Tom goes to the park with his mom and his teddy bear. He sees some other kids playing on the swings, the slide, and the sandbox. He wants to join them, but he is shy. He holds his teddy bear close to him and watches them.
+
+One of the kids, a girl named Lily, sees Tom and his teddy bear. She runs over to him and says, "Hi, I'm Lily. What's your name?" Tom says, "I'm Tom." Lily says, "That's a nice teddy bear. Can I see it?" Tom says, "No, it's mine." Lily says, "Oh, come on, don't be a baby. It's just a toy. Let me see it." She tries to grab the teddy bear from Tom.
+
+Tom gets scared and angry. He pulls his teddy bear away from Lily and says, "No, go away! You're mean!" Lily says, "Fine, be a baby. You're too old to play with a teddy bear. You should play with real toys, like cars and trucks." She laughs and runs back to the other kids.
+
+Tom feels embarrassed and sad. He thinks Lily is right. He thinks he is too old to play with a teddy bear. He thinks the other kids will laugh at him too. He wants to hide. He looks at his mom, who is sitting on a bench. She smiles at him and waves. She does not know what happened.
+
+Tom decides to go to his mom. He runs to her and hugs her. He says, "Mom, I want to go home." His mom says, "Why, what's wrong?" Tom says, "Lily was mean to me. She said I'm a baby and I can't play with my teddy bear." His mom says, "Oh, I'm sorry, Tom. Lily was not nice to you. But you're not a baby. You're a young boy who loves his teddy bear. And that's okay. You can play with whatever you want. Don't let anyone make you feel bad about it."
+
+Tom feels better. He says, "Thank you, mom. I love you. And I love my teddy bear." His mom says, "I love you too, Tom. And I love your teddy bear too. He's very cute. Do you want to stay at the park or go home?" Tom says, "I want to stay at the park. Maybe I can find some nice kids to play with. And I can show them my teddy bear." His mom says, "Okay, Tom. That sounds good. But be alert. Watch out for Lily and other mean kids. And come to me if you need me." Tom says, "Okay, mom. I will." He kisses his mom and his teddy bear. He goes back to the playground, feeling happy and brave. He hopes to make some new friends.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play outside in the sun. One day, they found a creek near their house. It had clear water and smooth stones. They wanted to cross the creek and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go!" Ben said. He took a big step and jumped to the next stone.
+
+"Wait, Ben, I'm scared!" Lily said. She looked at the water and felt nervous. What if she fell in? What if there were fish or frogs or snakes?
+
+"Don't be scared, Lily, I'm here!" Ben said. He reached out his hand and smiled. "Trust me, I'll help you. It's fun!"
+
+Lily took a deep breath and grabbed Ben's hand. She stepped on the stone and felt it wobble. She squealed and held on to Ben. He squeezed her hand and said, "You can do it, Lily, just one more step!"
+
+Lily looked at the last stone. It was bigger and flatter than the others. She jumped with Ben and landed on it. She felt happy and proud. She had crossed the creek!
+
+"Yay, we did it!" Ben said. He hugged Lily and spun her around. They laughed and cheered.
+
+They looked at the other side of the creek. It had green grass and colorful flowers. They saw a butterfly and a bird. They ran and explored and had fun.
+
+After a while, they felt tired and hungry. They decided to go back to their house. They crossed the creek again, holding hands. They thanked each other for being brave and kind.
+
+They walked home, feeling warm and cozy. They had a new adventure and a new memory. They were best friends.
+Sara loved sunflowers. She liked their bright yellow color and their big round faces. She wanted to grow some in her garden, but she did not have any seeds. One day, she saw a man selling sunflower seeds at the market. She asked her mom if she could buy some.
+
+"Sure, honey, but you have to be careful. Sunflower seeds are very sharp. They can hurt your fingers if you squeeze them too hard," her mom said.
+
+Sara nodded and took a modest handful of seeds. She thanked the man and went home with her mom. She was very excited to plant her sunflower seeds.
+
+She dug some holes in the dirt and put one seed in each hole. She covered them with more dirt and watered them gently. She hoped they would grow soon.
+
+Every day, she checked on her sunflower seeds. She was happy when she saw little green sprouts poking out of the dirt. She watched them grow taller and taller, until they had big green leaves and buds. She wondered when they would open and show their yellow faces.
+
+One morning, she woke up and ran to her garden. She gasped when she saw that her sunflowers had bloomed. They were beautiful and bright, just like she imagined. She smiled and hugged one of them.
+
+"Hello, sunflower. You are my friend. I'm so glad you grew for me," she said.
+
+The sunflower seemed to smile back at her. It had a surprise for her. Inside its center, there were many more sunflower seeds. They were not sharp anymore. They were soft and tasty. The sunflower shared its seeds with Sara. She ate some and saved some for later. She thanked the sunflower and gave it another hug.
+
+She was very happy. She had grown her own sunflowers and made a new friend. She decided to plant more sunflower seeds next year. She knew they would grow and bloom and share their seeds with her again.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They saw a fat butterfly on a flower. It had many colors on its wings. Lily wanted to catch it.
+
+"Look, Tom, a fat butterfly!" Lily said. "I want to carry it in my hands."
+
+She ran to the flower and tried to grab the butterfly. But the butterfly flew away. Lily followed it, but it was too fast.
+
+"Wait, Lily, don't scare it!" Tom said. "You have to be gentle and quiet."
+
+He walked slowly to another flower, where the butterfly landed. He held out his hand and waited. The butterfly came closer and touched his hand with its legs. Tom smiled and lifted his hand. The butterfly stayed on his hand.
+
+"Wow, Tom, you did it!" Lily said. "Can I see it?"
+
+Tom nodded and walked to Lily. He showed her the butterfly. Lily touched its wings softly. The butterfly moved them a little.
+
+"It is so pretty!" Lily said. "Can we keep it?"
+
+Tom shook his head. "No, Lily, we can't. The butterfly needs to fly and find food and friends. We have to let it go."
+
+Lily frowned. She liked the butterfly. But she knew Tom was right. She nodded.
+
+"Okay, Tom, we can let it go. But can we say goodbye?"
+
+Tom agreed. They both said goodbye to the butterfly and thanked it for letting them see it. Then they opened their hands and watched the butterfly fly away. They waved and smiled.
+
+The end.
+Anna and Ben like to play with blocks. They make towers with the blocks. They see who can make the tallest tower. Anna and Ben are careful with the blocks. They know the blocks are fragile. If they push too hard, the blocks will fall.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben find a big box. The box is full of blocks. They are very happy. They want to make a huge tower with the box of blocks. They take the blocks out of the box. They start to build the tower. They fill the floor with blocks. They fill the table with blocks. They fill the chairs with blocks. They fill the sofa with blocks. They fill the bed with blocks. They fill the window with blocks. They fill the door with blocks. They fill the whole room with blocks.
+
+Anna and Ben are very proud of their tower. They want to show their tower to Mom and Dad. They call Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad come to the room. They see the tower. They see the blocks. They see no space to walk. They see no space to sit. They see no space to sleep. They are very surprised. They are not very happy. They tell Anna and Ben to clean up the blocks. They tell Anna and Ben to put the blocks back in the box. They tell Anna and Ben to leave some space for them. Anna and Ben are sad. They like their tower. They do not want to break their tower. But they know they have to listen to Mom and Dad. They start to take the blocks off the tower. They are careful with the blocks. They know the blocks are fragile. If they pull too hard, the blocks will fall.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they find a big blue kite. They want to fly the kite in the sky.
+
+They run to the hill near their house. The hill is high and green. The wind is strong and cool. They hold the kite and run up the hill. The kite starts to soar in the air. It looks like a bird.
+
+"Wow, look at our kite!" Tom says. "It is so high and fast!"
+
+"Yes, it is beautiful!" Sue says. "It is the same color as the sky!"
+
+They laugh and clap. They take turns to hold the kite. They watch the kite soar and dance. They have fun with the kite on the hill. They are happy.
+Anna likes to play with her doll, Lily. She puts a bow in Lily's hair and talks to her. She asks Lily what she wants to do today. Lily does not reply. Anna thinks Lily is shy.
+
+Anna takes Lily to the garden. She sees a butterfly. She points to it and says, "Look, Lily, a butterfly! It is pretty and has many colors. Do you like it?" Lily does not reply. Anna thinks Lily is busy.
+
+Anna takes Lily to the kitchen. She sees her mom. She says, "Hi, mom. This is Lily. She is my doll. Can we have a snack?" Mom smiles and says, "Hello, Anna. Hello, Lily. You are both very cute. Yes, you can have a snack. How about some apple slices and cheese?" Anna says, "Yes, please. Thank you, mom." Lily does not reply. Anna thinks Lily is polite.
+
+Anna and Lily sit at the table and eat their snack. Anna says, "Lily, this is yummy. Do you like it?" Lily does not reply. Anna thinks Lily is full.
+
+Anna and Lily finish their snack and go to the living room. They see dad. He says, "Hi, Anna. Hi, Lily. Do you want to play a game with me?" Anna says, "Yes, dad. What game?" Dad says, "How about hide and seek? I will count to ten and you and Lily hide. Then I will try to find you. OK?" Anna says, "OK, dad. Come on, Lily. Let's hide." Lily does not reply. Anna thinks Lily is excited.
+
+Anna and Lily run to the bedroom and hide under the bed. Dad counts to ten and then says, "Ready or not, here I come!" He looks for Anna and Lily in the living room, the kitchen, the garden, and the bathroom. He does not find them. He goes to the bedroom and sees a bow sticking out from under the bed. He says, "Aha! I found you, Anna and Lily. You are very good at hiding. But you forgot to hide your bow." Anna and Lily come out from under the bed. Anna laughs and says, "You are right, dad. We forgot to hide our bow. You are very good at finding. That was fun." Lily does not reply. Anna thinks Lily is happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new girl on the swing. She has long hair and a red dress. She looks sad.
+
+"Hi, what is your name?" Lily asks the new girl.
+
+"Anna," the new girl says in a low voice.
+
+"Do you want to play with us?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna shakes her head. "No, thank you. I don't have any friends here. I just moved from another town."
+
+Lily and Ben feel sorry for Anna. They realize she is lonely. They want to make her happy.
+
+"Come on, Anna. We can be your friends. We can play tag, or hide and seek, or make sand castles," Lily says.
+
+"Yeah, and we can share our snacks and toys. We have cookies and cars and dolls," Ben says.
+
+Anna looks at Lily and Ben. She sees their smiles and their kind eyes. She feels a warm feeling in her chest. She decides to give them a chance.
+
+"Okay, I will play with you. Thank you for being nice to me," Anna says.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They run to the slide and take turns. Anna follows them. She laughs when they make funny faces. She has fun with them.
+
+After a while, they sit on the grass and eat their cookies. Anna gives Lily and Ben each a hug. She says, "You are the best friends I ever had. You make me feel not so thin and alone."
+
+Lily and Ben hug her back. They say, "You are welcome, Anna. You are our friend too. You make us feel happy and good."
+
+They finish their cookies and play some more. They realize they have a lot in common. They like the same games and songs and colors. They promise to meet again tomorrow. They are glad they found each other. They are friends.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with toys. They have a modern toy car. It can zoom very fast. It has a remote control. Tom and Jen take turns to drive the car.

+One day, they go to the park. They find a big hill. They want to zoom the car down the hill. They put the car on the top of the hill. Tom holds the remote control. He says, "Are you ready, Jen?"
+
+Jen says, "Yes, I am ready. Let's zoom!"
+
+Tom pushes a button. The car zooms down the hill. It goes very fast. It makes a loud noise. Tom and Jen laugh. They run after the car.
+
+But the car zooms too fast. It goes out of the park. It goes into the street. There are many big cars and buses in the street. They honk and beep. Tom and Jen are scared. They stop running. They say, "Oh no! Our car!"
+
+They see a man with a camera. He is a reporter. He sees the car zooming in the street. He thinks it is a news story. He grabs his camera. He says, "What is that? A modern toy car? I need to film it!"
+
+He puts his camera on a pan. A pan is a thing that can move the camera from side to side. He follows the car with his camera. He says, "This is amazing! A toy car zooming in the street! I will show this on TV!"
+
+Tom and Jen see the man with the camera. They run to him. They say, "Please, mister, that is our car! Can you help us get it back?"
+
+The man sees Tom and Jen. He is surprised. He says, "This is your car? How did it get here?"
+
+Tom and Jen tell him what happened. They say, "We are sorry. We did not mean to zoom the car in the street. We were playing in the park. Can you please stop the car?"
+
+The man says, "Don't worry, kids. I will help you. I have an idea. I will use my camera to zoom in on the car. Then I will use my pan to move the camera in front of the car. The car will see the camera and stop. Then you can get your car back."
+
+The man does what he says. He zooms in on the car with his camera. He pans the camera in front of the car. The car sees the camera and stops. Tom and Jen run to the car. They say, "Thank you, mister! You are very smart and kind!"
+
+The man says, "You are welcome, kids. You have a very cool car. But be careful next time. Don't zoom it in the street. It is dangerous. Zoom it in the park. It is safer and more fun."
+
+Tom and Jen say, "OK, mister. We will do that. Thank you again. Goodbye!"
+
+They take their car and go back to the park. They zoom it on the hill. They have fun. The man goes back to his work. He has a good story. He shows it on TV. Everyone sees the modern toy car that can zoom very fast. They think it is amazing. The end.
+Sam and Jen were friends who liked to play on the farm. They liked to run, jump, and pet the animals. One day, they saw a big red barn that they had never seen before. They wanted to go inside and explore.
+
+"Let's go in the barn!" Sam said. "Maybe there are more animals or toys inside."
+
+"I don't know, Sam," Jen said. "The barn looks old and scary. And Mom said we should not go near the expensive things on the farm. They are not for us."
+
+"Come on, Jen, don't be a baby," Sam said. "It will be fun. And we won't touch anything expensive. We will just look."
+
+Sam ran to the barn and opened the door. Jen followed him, but she was afraid. The barn was dark and dusty. There were many things inside, but they did not look like animals or toys. They looked like machines and tools and boxes.
+
+"Wow, look at all this stuff!" Sam said. He ran to a big machine that had wheels and pipes and buttons. "I wonder what this does. Maybe it makes noises or moves."
+
+"Sam, don't touch that!" Jen said. "That looks expensive. And dangerous. We should quit and go back."
+
+But Sam did not listen. He pushed a button on the machine. The machine made a loud noise and started to shake. Smoke came out of the pipes. The machine was broken.
+
+"Uh-oh," Sam said. "That was not good."
+
+The noise and the smoke alerted the farmer, who was working nearby. He ran to the barn and saw Sam and Jen and the broken machine. He was very angry.
+
+"What are you doing here?" he shouted. "You have no business in my barn. You have ruined my expensive machine. It was very important for my work. Now I have to pay a lot of money to fix it. You are in big trouble."
+
+He grabbed Sam and Jen by the arms and dragged them out of the barn. He took them to their parents and told them what happened. Their parents were very disappointed and scolded them. They had to apologize to the farmer and promise to never go in the barn again. They also had to work on the farm for a week to help pay for the damage. They did not have any fun. They learned their lesson. They wished they had quit and gone back.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. But then, Lily's car broke. The wheel came off and rolled away.
+
+"Oh no, my car!" Lily cried. "It's broken!"
+
+Ben looked at the car and saw the wheel. He picked it up and said, "Don't cry, Lily. I can repair it. I have glue."
+
+He ran to his room and came back with a bottle of glue. He put some glue on the wheel and stuck it back to the car. He waited for a few seconds and then said, "There, it's fixed. Try it."
+
+Lily smiled and took the car. She pushed it on the floor and saw that it was working again. She said, "Thank you, Ben. You are very good at repairing things."
+
+Ben smiled too and said, "You're welcome, Lily. I like to help you. Let's play some more."
+
+They played with their cars until it was evening. Their mom called them for dinner. They put their cars away and went to the kitchen. They ate their food and drank their milk. They were happy and full.
+
+After dinner, they brushed their teeth and put on their pajamas. Their mom read them a story and tucked them in their beds. She kissed them good night and said, "Sleep well, my sweeties. I love you."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged their mom and said, "We love you too, mom. Good night."
+
+They closed their eyes and fell asleep. It was a calm night. They dreamed of their cars and their glue.
+Ben has a dog. His dog's name is Spot. Spot is a good and obedient dog. He likes to play with Ben and do tricks. Ben loves Spot very much.
+
+One day, Ben and Spot go to the park. They see many other dogs and people. Spot wants to run and chase the other dogs, but Ben tells him to stay. Spot listens to Ben and stays by his side. Ben is proud of Spot.
+
+They find a shady spot under a big tree. Ben lays a blanket on the grass and sits down. He tells Spot to lay down too. Spot lays down next to Ben and rests his head on Ben's lap. Ben pets Spot and says, "You are such a good boy, Spot. I'm so happy you are my dog."
+
+Spot wags his tail and licks Ben's face. He is happy too. He thinks, "You are such a good boy, Ben. I'm so happy you are my human." They smile at each other and enjoy the day.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they see a big bike in the park. The bike has a shiny handle and a bell. Lila and Ben want to ride the bike.
+
+"Can we go on the bike?" Lila asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is someone's bike. Maybe they will come back soon." Ben says.
+
+They look around. They do not see anyone. The bike is alone. Lila and Ben think the bike is available.
+
+"Let's go on the bike. It will be fun. We can take turns." Lila says.
+
+"Okay. But we have to be careful. The bike is big. We have to hold the handle tight." Ben says.
+
+They run to the bike. Lila goes on the bike first. She holds the handle and pushes the pedals. The bike moves. Lila is happy. She rings the bell.
+
+"Ding ding! Look at me! I am riding the bike!" Lila says.
+
+Ben claps his hands. He waits for his turn. He is excited. He wants to ride the bike too.
+
+"Good job, Lila! You are doing great! Can I go on the bike next?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, Ben. You can go on the bike next. But you have to wait a little bit. I want to ride a little more." Lila says.
+
+Lila and Ben have fun on the bike. They do not know that the bike belongs to someone else. They do not know that someone is watching them. They do not know that someone is angry. They do not know that someone is coming.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to roll them on the smooth rug and make vroom noises. Sometimes they crashed them and pretended they were broken.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a new car!" Tom said, showing her a shiny red car with a lock on the door. "It is very fast and safe. No one can take it from me."
+
+"Wow, Tom, your car is very nice. Can I play with it?" Lily asked, reaching for the car.
+
+"No, Lily, this is my car. You have your own car. Go play with it." Tom said, pulling the car away from Lily. He did not want to share his new car.
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted to play with the new car too. She thought Tom was being mean. She looked around and saw a ball on the floor. She had an idea. She picked up the ball and threw it at Tom's car.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Tom shouted, as the ball hit his car and made it roll off the rug. He ran after his car, but he was too late. The car rolled under the sofa and got stuck.
+
+"Ha ha, now you can't play with your car either!" Lily said, sticking out her tongue. She felt happy that she made Tom lose his car.
+
+Tom felt sad and angry. He wanted his car back. He tried to reach under the sofa, but he could not fit his hand. He looked at Lily and saw her smiling. He thought Lily was being mean. He started to cry.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, Lily threw a ball at my car and now it is under the sofa and I can't get it!" Tom cried, running to his mother, who was in the kitchen.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, Tom did not let me play with his car and he was mean to me!" Lily cried, following Tom to his mother.
+
+Their mother sighed and put down her spoon. She walked with them to the living room and looked under the sofa. She saw the red car with the lock on the door. She reached under the sofa and pulled it out.
+
+"Here you go, Tom, here is your car. It is not broken, don't worry." She said, handing the car to Tom.
+
+"Thank you, mommy." Tom said, hugging his car.
+
+"And here you go, Lily, here is a ball. It is not broken, don't worry." She said, handing the ball to Lily.
+
+"Thank you, mommy." Lily said, hugging her ball.
+
+"Now, listen to me, both of you. You need to learn to share and be nice to each other. Playing with toys is more fun when you play together. Do you understand?" She said, looking at them.
+
+"Yes, mommy." Tom and Lily said, nodding their heads.
+
+"Good. Now, why don't you try to play with both the car and the ball? You can take turns and make up a game. How does that sound?" She said, smiling at them.
+
+"Okay, mommy." Tom and Lily said, smiling back.
+
+They went back to the living room and put the car and the ball on the rug. They decided to play a game where they rolled the car and the ball and tried to catch them. They had fun and laughed. They forgot to be mean and sad. They learned to share and be nice. They were happy.
+Mia and Leo were playing in the hall. They had many toys, but they liked the big red car best. They took turns to drive it and make loud noises.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I am a fast car!" Mia said.
+
+"Beep, beep, move out of the way!" Leo said.
+
+They had fun, but then they saw Sam coming. Sam was older and bigger. He wanted the big red car too.
+
+"Hey, that's my car!" Sam said. He grabbed the car from Leo and pushed him away.
+
+"No, it's not! It's ours!" Mia said. She tried to pull the car back, but Sam was too strong.
+
+"Finders keepers, losers weepers!" Sam said. He ran away with the car.
+
+Mia and Leo were sad and angry. They wanted their car back. They followed Sam to the kitchen, where he put the car on the table.
+
+Sam saw a plate of cookies on the counter. They looked tasty. He forgot about the car and reached for a cookie.
+
+But then he heard a loud voice.
+
+"Sam, what are you doing? Those are not your cookies!" It was Mom. She was not happy.
+
+Sam dropped the cookie and looked at Mom. He was scared.
+
+"Sorry, Mom, I was hungry," Sam said.
+
+"That's no excuse. You have to ask before you take something that doesn't belong to you. And you have to share with your friends. Where did you get that car?" Mom said.
+
+Sam pointed at Mia and Leo, who were standing in the doorway.
+
+"They gave it to me," Sam lied.
+
+"No, we didn't! He took it from us!" Mia and Leo said.
+
+Mom looked at Sam. She knew he was lying.
+
+"Sam, that's not nice. You have to tell the truth and say sorry. And you have to give the car back to Mia and Leo. They were playing with it first," Mom said.
+
+Sam felt bad. He knew he was wrong.
+
+"Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Mia. Sorry, Leo. Here's your car," Sam said. He gave the car back to Mia and Leo.
+
+Mia and Leo smiled. They were happy to have their car back.
+
+"Thank you, Sam. Do you want to play with us?" Mia asked.
+
+Sam nodded. He wanted to be friends.
+
+"Okay, but you have to be nice and take turns," Leo said.
+
+Sam agreed. He learned his lesson.
+
+They all went back to the hall and played with the big red car. They shared and had fun. Mom watched them and smiled. She was proud of them.
+Tom and Lily went to camp with Mom and Dad. They slept in a big tent and ate hot dogs and marshmallows. They liked camp very much.
+
+One day, they saw a shiny rock near the lake. It was round and smooth and had many colors. Tom and Lily wanted to touch it.
+
+"Can we touch the rock, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Be careful, it might be sharp or hot," Mom said. "And don't go too close to the water."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and walked to the rock. They reached out their hands and touched it. It was not sharp or hot. It was cool and soft.
+
+"Wow, this is a nice rock," Tom said.
+
+"Can we keep it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, why not?" Mom said. "But don't forget to wash your hands."
+
+Tom and Lily were happy. They put the rock in their backpack and ran back to the tent. They did not see the dull sign that said "Danger: Radioactive".
+Lily was a new girl in the big school. She felt scared and shy. She did not know anyone. She sat in a corner and looked at the floor.
+
+Miss Lee was the teacher. She saw Lily and smiled. She wanted to help Lily make friends. She said, "Class, we have a new friend today. Her name is Lily. Can you say hello to Lily?"
+
+The other children said hello to Lily. Some of them smiled and waved. Lily felt a little better. She looked up and saw their faces.
+
+Miss Lee said, "Lily, can you come to the front and introduce yourself? You can use the blackboard to draw something you like."
+
+Lily nodded and walked to the front. She picked up a chalk and drew a big flower on the blackboard. She said, "My name is Lily. I like flowers. They are pretty and smell good."
+
+The other children clapped and cheered. They liked Lily's drawing. They said, "We like flowers too. You are good at drawing."
+
+Lily smiled and felt happy. She had made some friends. She thanked Miss Lee and went back to her seat. She saw a boy next to her. He had a toy car in his hand. He said, "Hi, Lily. I'm Tom. Do you want to play with my car? It's harmless. It doesn't bite or scratch."
+
+Lily said, "Yes, please. I like cars too. They are fast and fun."
+
+Tom and Lily shared the car and played together. They laughed and had fun. Lily was not scared or shy anymore. She liked the big school. She liked Miss Lee and the other children. She liked Tom and his car. She was happy.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. But they do not like to share. Sometimes they fight over their toys and make a lot of noise.
+
+One day, Sara finds a brush in the closet. It is a big brush with soft bristles. Sara likes the brush. She wants to use it to comb her hair and make it shiny. She takes the brush to her bed and starts to brush her hair.
+
+Tom sees the brush. He wants the brush too. He thinks the brush is good for painting. He has some paints and paper on his desk. He wants to use the brush to make colorful pictures. He goes to Sara's bed and tries to take the brush.
+
+Sara does not want to give the brush to Tom. She holds the brush tight and says, "No, it is mine! Go away!" Tom pulls the brush hard and says, "No, it is mine! Give it to me!" They tug and tug on the brush and make a lot of noise.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to their room and sees them fighting over the brush. She is not happy. She says, "Stop it, both of you! The brush is not yours. It is mine. I use it to clean the dust from the shelves. You should not play with it. It is not a toy. And look at the mess you made. Your room is empty of toys. You threw them all on the floor. You need to grow up and learn to share and be nice. Now, pick up your toys and put them back in the box. And say sorry to each other."
+
+Sara and Tom feel bad. They know they did wrong. They say sorry to Mom and to each other. They pick up their toys and put them back in the box. They hug and make up. They decide to play with their own toys and not fight over the brush. They are happy again. Mom is happy too. She smiles and says, "That's better. Now you can play nicely in your room. And maybe later, I will let you use the brush to help me clean the dust from the shelves." Sara and Tom nod and say, "Yes, Mom. Thank you, Mom." They love Mom and the brush.
+Jill and Tom were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so nice!" Jill said.
+
+"Yes, he is. But I want to make him more fun. I have an idea!" Tom said. He ran to the house and came back with a book. "This is a book of spells. We can make our snowman come to life!"
+
+Jill was scared. "No, Tom, don't do that. Spells are bad. They can make things go wrong."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He opened the book and read a spell out loud. He pointed at the snowman and said some strange words.
+
+Suddenly, the snowman moved. He shook his head and smiled. He looked at Tom and Jill and said, "Hello, I am Frosty. Thank you for making me. Can I play with you?"
+
+Jill and Tom were shocked. They did not know what to do. They did not want to play with a talking snowman. They wanted their old snowman back.
+
+"Tom, what did you do? This is not fun. This is scary. How can we make him stop?" Jill said.
+
+"I don't know. I don't remember the spell. Maybe we can remove his hat and scarf. Maybe that will make him go away." Tom said.
+
+They tried to remove his hat and scarf, but Frosty did not let them. He grabbed their hands and said, "No, don't do that. I like my hat and scarf. They keep me warm. Please, don't take them away. I just want to be your friend."
+
+Jill and Tom were trapped. They did not know how to get rid of Frosty. They wished they never used the spell. They wished they never made the snowman come to life. They wished they could go back to their simple and icy game.
+Sam and Lily like to play in the yard. They have a big tub of water and many toys. They splash and soak each other with the water. They laugh and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a pile of junk near the fence. It is old and rusty and dirty. They are curious and want to see what is in the junk. They go closer and look at the junk.
+
+But the junk is not safe. There are sharp things and pointy things and broken things in the junk. Sam steps on a nail and it hurts his foot. He cries and bleeds. Lily sees a glass and it cuts her hand. She cries and bleeds too.
+
+They run back to the tub of water and try to wash their wounds. But the water is dirty and makes them hurt more. They call for their mom and dad. They come and see their children hurt and scared. They take them inside and clean their wounds and put bandages on them. They hug them and kiss them and make them feel better.
+
+They tell them not to play with the junk anymore. It is dangerous and can hurt them. They tell them to play with their toys and the water. They are safe and fun. Sam and Lily nod and say sorry. They learn their lesson and do not go near the junk again. They play in the yard and have fun.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, Tom's mom tells him to go home at four o'clock. She gives him a message for Mia's mom. She says, "Tell Mia's mom that I will pick her up at five o'clock. Don't forget, Tom."
+
+Tom says, "Okay, mom. I will not forget." He puts the message in his pocket and runs to the park. He sees Mia on the swing. He joins her and they have fun. They swing, slide, and run. They forget about the time.
+
+At five o'clock, Mia's mom comes to the park. She looks for Mia and Tom. She sees them playing with a ball. She calls them. "Mia, Tom, it's time to go home. Come here, please."
+
+Mia and Tom hear her voice. They stop playing and run to her. Mia hugs her mom. Tom says, "Hi, Mia's mom. We had fun in the park."
+
+Mia's mom says, "I'm glad you had fun, Tom. But where is your mom? She was supposed to pick you up at four o'clock. Did she call you?"
+
+Tom feels uncomfortable. He remembers the message in his pocket. He forgot to tell Mia's mom. He says, "Oh, no. I'm sorry, Mia's mom. I forgot. My mom gave me a message for you. She said she will pick me up at five o'clock. She is late. I'm sorry."
+
+Mia's mom says, "It's okay, Tom. Don't worry. I'm sure your mom is on her way. Let's wait for her together. Next time, don't forget to tell me the message, okay?"
+
+Tom says, "Okay, Mia's mom. I'm sorry. I will not forget again."
+
+Mia says, "It's okay, Tom. We are still friends. Do you want to share my snack?"
+
+Tom says, "Yes, please. Thank you, Mia. You are a good friend."
+
+They sit on a bench and share Mia's snack. They wait for Tom's mom. They are happy.
+Sara was very happy. She had an invitation to go to Lily's birthday party. She liked Lily very much. She wanted to give her a nice present.
+
+She went to her room and looked for a present. She had a big box with many toys. She opened the box and peeked inside. She saw a soft teddy bear, a shiny ball, a colorful book, and a funny hat. She thought for a moment. What would Lily like best?
+
+She decided to give her the soft teddy bear. She thought Lily would like to hug it and play with it. She took the teddy bear out of the box and wrapped it in a pretty paper. She put a bow on it and wrote Lily's name on a card.
+
+She was ready to go to the party. She ran to the living room and showed her mom the present. "Look, mom, this is for Lily. Do you think she will like it?" she asked.
+
+Her mom smiled and gave her a gentle hug. "I think she will love it, Sara. You are very kind and thoughtful. Now, let's go to the party and have some fun." she said.
+
+Sara nodded and held her mom's hand. She was very excited. She could not wait to see Lily and give her the present. She hoped Lily would be happy and they would have a lot of fun together.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big dog with a long tail and a wet nose. The dog is running and barking. Anna and Ben want to pet the dog, but they are not sure if the dog is friendly.
+
+"Can we pet the dog?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe we should ask the owner first."
+
+They look around and see a man sitting on a bench. He has a leash in his hand. He is the owner of the dog.
+
+"Excuse me, sir," Anna says. "Can we pet your dog?"
+
+The man smiles and nods. "Sure, you can. His name is Max. He is very gentle and loves children. But you have to be gentle too. Don't pull his ears or his tail. And don't make loud noises. He might get scared."
+
+Anna and Ben say thank you and walk slowly to the dog. They hold out their hands and let the dog sniff them. The dog wags his tail and licks their fingers. He is very soft and warm. Anna and Ben pet the dog gently. They stroke his fur and scratch his ears. The dog rolls over on the ground and shows his belly. He wants more petting.
+
+Anna and Ben giggle and rub the dog's belly. They are having fun. The dog is happy too. He barks and wags his tail. He likes Anna and Ben. They are his new friends.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play together. One day, they found a big boat near the lake. They wanted to see what was inside the boat, so they climbed on it. They were very nosy.
+
+"Wow, look at all these things!" Lily said, pointing to some ropes and nets. "Maybe this is a fishing boat."
+
+"Or maybe it is a pirate boat!" Ben said, holding a wooden stick like a sword. "Maybe there is treasure here!"
+
+They looked around the boat, but they did not see any treasure. They only saw some old cans and bottles. They were a little disappointed.
+
+"Let's go to the other side of the lake," Lily said. "Maybe there is something more fun there."
+
+"OK, let's go!" Ben said. He pushed a button on the boat. The boat started to move. It made a loud noise.
+
+"Yay, we are sailing!" Lily said, clapping her hands. She did not know that the button was for the motor. She thought it was a magic button.
+
+They sailed across the lake, but they did not see anyone. They only saw water and trees. They were a little bored.
+
+"Look, there is an island!" Ben said, pointing to a small piece of land. "Maybe there is something interesting there."
+
+"Let's go there!" Lily said. She pushed the button again. The boat turned towards the island. It went faster and faster.
+
+They reached the island, but they did not see anyone. They only saw sand and rocks. They were a little scared.
+
+"Where are we?" Lily asked, looking around. She did not know that the island was very far from their home. She thought it was a new place to play.
+
+"Let's explore the island!" Ben said, trying to be brave. He jumped off the boat. He held his stick like a sword.
+
+"OK, let's go!" Lily said, following him. She held a rope like a whip.
+
+They skipped on the sand, looking for adventure. They did not know that the boat was drifting away. They thought it was waiting for them.
+One day, a grumpy cat named Max saw a mouse walk out of a hole. Max wanted to catch the mouse, so he ran after it. But the mouse was very smart and fast. It did not walk in a straight line. It walked in a zigzag. Max got very confused and tired. He could not catch the mouse.
+
+The mouse saw that Max was grumpy and slow. It wanted to have some fun. It walked back to Max and said, "Hello, grumpy cat. Do you want to play with me? I can teach you how to walk in a zigzag. It is very easy and fun." The mouse smiled and walked in a zigzag again.
+
+Max did not like the mouse. He did not want to play with it. He did not want to learn how to walk in a zigzag. He wanted to eat it. He growled and jumped at the mouse. But the mouse was too quick and dodged him. The mouse laughed and said, "Bye, grumpy cat. Maybe next time you can catch me. But you have to walk in a zigzag first." The mouse ran back to its hole and disappeared.
+
+Max was very angry and sad. He had no mouse to eat and no fun to have. He walked back to his bed and lay down. He was still grumpy. He wished he could walk in a zigzag. Maybe then he could catch the mouse and have some fun. But he did not know how to walk in a zigzag. He only knew how to walk in a straight line. He sighed and closed his eyes. He dreamed of walking in a zigzag.
+Lily liked to drink milk every night before bed. She had a white cup with a pink lid that she filled with milk from the fridge. She carried her cup to the living room, where her dad was sitting in his big armchair. He was reading a book with many words and pictures.
+
+"Can I sit with you, dad?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, sweetie. Come here," dad said. He lifted Lily onto his lap and hugged her. He put his book on the table and looked at her cup. "Is that your milk?"
+
+"Yes, dad. It's good for me. It makes me strong and healthy," Lily said.
+
+"That's right, Lily. Milk is good for you. But you know what else is good for you?" dad asked.
+
+"What, dad?" Lily asked.
+
+"Brushing your teeth after you drink milk. Milk has sugar that can make your teeth dirty and hurt. You don't want that, do you?" dad said.
+
+"No, dad. I don't want that. I want clean and happy teeth," Lily said.
+
+"Good girl. So, after you finish your milk, you have to go to the bathroom and brush your teeth with your toothbrush and toothpaste. Then you can go to bed and have sweet dreams," dad said.
+
+"OK, dad. I will do that. Thank you for telling me," Lily said.
+
+She drank her milk slowly and enjoyed the warm feeling in her tummy. She smiled at her dad and gave him a kiss. Then she got off his lap and went to the bathroom. She brushed her teeth with her toothbrush and toothpaste. She rinsed her mouth with water and spit it out. She looked at her teeth in the mirror and saw that they were white and shiny. She was proud of herself.
+
+She went back to the living room and said good night to her dad. He tucked her in her bed and kissed her forehead. He turned off the light and left the door open a little. Lily closed her eyes and fell asleep. She dreamed of cows and fields and flowers.
+
+The moral of the story is: drinking milk is good for you, but you have to brush your teeth afterwards to keep them clean and healthy. The foreshadowing or setup is when dad asks Lily what else is good for her, and the payoff is when she brushes her teeth and sees them white and shiny. The dialogue is between Lily and her dad. The words are simple and easy for a 3 year old to understand.
+Timmy liked to play outside with his ball. He was very enthusiastic and ran and jumped and kicked the ball. He did not like to go inside when it was dark. He wanted to play more.
+
+But his mom said, "Timmy, it is time to go inside. There are many mosquitoes outside. They will bite you and make you itch. Come on, let's go."
+
+Timmy did not listen. He said, "No, mom, I want to play more. Mosquitoes are not scary. They are small and I can catch them." He ran away from his mom and chased a mosquito.
+
+His mom sighed and followed him. She said, "Timmy, be careful. Mosquitoes are not fun. They are annoying and they can make you sick. Please, come inside and close the door."
+
+Timmy did not listen. He said, "No, mom, I can do it. I can catch the mosquito. Look, I almost got it." He reached out his hand and tried to grab the mosquito.
+
+But the mosquito was faster and smarter. It flew away from Timmy's hand and landed on his nose. It bit him hard and made him cry.
+
+Timmy felt a sharp pain and a big bump on his nose. He ran to his mom and said, "Mom, mom, the mosquito bit me. It hurts. It hurts."
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Timmy. I told you to come inside and close the door. But you did not listen. Now you have a mosquito bite. Let me put some cream on it and make it better."
+
+Timmy nodded and said, "OK, mom. I'm sorry. I will listen to you next time. I don't like mosquitoes. They are mean and they hurt. Can we go inside and close the door?"
+
+His mom smiled and said, "Yes, Timmy. We can go inside and close the door. And tomorrow, you can play outside again. But only when it is not dark and there are no mosquitoes. OK?"
+
+Timmy said, "OK, mom. I love you."
+
+His mom said, "I love you too, Timmy."
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to help their mom with grocery. They each had a small cart that they pushed around the store. Mom gave them a list of things to find and put in their carts.
+
+Lily found apples, bananas, carrots, and cheese. She smiled as she put them in her cart. She liked fruits and vegetables and cheese. She looked at Ben's cart and saw cookies, chips, candy, and soda. She felt envious of Ben. He had all the yummy things that mom said were not good for them.
+
+"Ben, why do you have so many treats?" Lily asked. "Mom said we should eat healthy food."
+
+Ben shrugged. "I like treats. They are sweet and crunchy and fizzy. Mom won't mind if I have some."
+
+Lily frowned. She wanted some treats too, but she also wanted to make mom happy. She thought Ben was being naughty and selfish.
+
+"Ben, you should share some of your treats with me. It's not fair that you have all of them." Lily said.
+
+Ben shook his head. "No, they are mine. You have your own food. Go away."
+
+Lily felt angry and sad. She tried to grab some of Ben's cookies, but he pushed her away. Their carts bumped and some of their food fell on the floor. Mom heard the noise and came over.
+
+"What's going on here?" Mom asked. "Why are you fighting?"
+
+Lily and Ben both started to cry and tell their stories. Mom listened and sighed. She picked up the food from the floor and put it back in their carts.
+
+"Lily, Ben, I'm disappointed in both of you. You should not be envious of each other's food. You should be grateful for what you have. And you should not be greedy and rude. You should be kind and generous. You are twins, you should love and help each other." Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for what they did. They hugged each other and said sorry. They also said sorry to mom.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them back. She said she loved them and forgave them. She also said they could have one treat each after they ate their healthy food at home.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled too. They felt happy and proud. They finished their grocery and went home with mom. They learned a lesson and promised to be good twins.
+Sara was sad. She had a boring day at home. She wanted to play with her friends, but they were all busy. She looked at her toys, but they did not make her happy. She wanted something new and fun.
+
+She saw her mom's bracelet on the table. It was shiny and pretty. It had many colors and beads. Sara liked it a lot. She thought it would make her happy. She took the bracelet and put it on her wrist. She felt like a princess.
+
+She ran to the mirror to see how she looked. She smiled and twirled. She did not hear her mom calling her name. She did not see her mom coming into the room. She did not know that the bracelet was very special to her mom.
+
+Her mom saw Sara with the bracelet. She was angry and scared. She shouted at Sara. She took the bracelet from her wrist. She told Sara that the bracelet did not belong to her. She told Sara that the bracelet was a gift from her grandma, who was not alive anymore. She told Sara that the bracelet was very important to her, and that she should never touch it again.
+
+Sara was shocked and scared. She did not mean to make her mom angry. She did not know that the bracelet was special. She just wanted to have some fun. She started to cry. She said she was sorry. She hugged her mom and said she loved her.
+
+Her mom hugged her back and said she loved her too. She said she was sorry for shouting. She said she understood that Sara was bored. She said she would find something fun for them to do together. She said she would tell Sara stories about her grandma and the bracelet. She said she would let Sara wear the bracelet sometimes, if she was careful and asked first.
+
+Sara felt better. She said thank you to her mom. She said she wanted to hear the stories. She said she wanted to wear the bracelet sometimes. She said she wanted to be like her mom and her grandma. She said she was happy.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they found a jar with a candle inside. They thought it was pretty and wanted to see the light.
+
+"Let's burn the candle," said Anna.
+
+"OK, but be careful," said Ben.
+
+They took a match from the kitchen and lit the candle. The jar glowed with a warm yellow light. They smiled and watched the flame.
+
+But they did not see that the jar was too close to the dry grass. Soon, the grass caught fire and spread quickly. The twins smelled the smoke and saw the fire. They were scared and ran to the house.
+
+"Help, help, fire!" they shouted.
+
+Mom and Dad heard them and came outside. They saw the fire and called the firemen. The firemen came with a big red truck and a loud siren. They sprayed water on the fire and put it out.
+
+Mom and Dad were angry and sad. They asked the twins what happened. The twins told them the truth. They said they were sorry and cried.
+
+Mom and Dad hugged them and said they were glad they were safe. But they also said they were disappointed and taught them a lesson.
+
+"Burning a candle is not a game," said Mom. "It is dangerous and can hurt you and others. You have to be careful and responsible with fire."
+
+"Playing with matches is not smart," said Dad. "It is foolish and can cause damage and trouble. You have to be intelligent and respectful with fire."
+
+The twins learned their lesson and said they would never play with fire again. They thanked the firemen and helped Mom and Dad clean the garden. They also gave the jar and the candle to Mom and Dad as a gift. They said they wanted them to have something pretty and safe.
+
+Mom and Dad smiled and thanked them. They said they loved them and were proud of them. They said they were good and brave twins who made a mistake but learned from it. They said they hoped they would always be intelligent and careful with fire.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They used pots and pans and spoons and bowls. They also used some salt and sugar and flour from the cupboard.
+
+Lily found a small spoon. She said, "This is a teaspoon. It is for measuring. I will use it to make a cake." She put some flour and sugar and water in a bowl and stirred with the teaspoon.
+
+Tom saw the teaspoon and wanted it. He said, "No, that is my teaspoon. I need it to make soup." He tried to grab the teaspoon from Lily, but she held it tight.
+
+They both pulled and tugged on the teaspoon. They started to shout at each other. "Mine!" "No, mine!" "Give it back!" "No, you give it back!"
+
+They shouted so loud that Mom heard them. She came into the kitchen and saw the mess. She saw the flour and sugar and water on the floor and the table and the chairs. She saw Lily and Tom fighting over the teaspoon.
+
+She was not happy. She said, "Stop it, both of you! You are making a big mess and a lot of noise. You need to share and be nice. And you need to clean up this kitchen right now."
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry. They said, "Sorry, Mom. We were playing and we wanted the teaspoon." They let go of the teaspoon and hugged each other.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "It's okay. I know you were having fun. But you need to be careful and respectful. And you need to use your words, not your shouts. Now, let's clean up together and then we can have some real cake. I made one for you this morning. You are lucky kids."
+Sara and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat something yummy. Mom said she made some muffins for them. They were in the kitchen, on the table.
+
+"Let's go get the muffins!" Sara said. She ran to the kitchen. Ben followed her. They saw the muffins. They smelled good. They were brown and round and had chocolate chips on top.
+
+"Yay, muffins!" Ben said. He reached for one. Sara reached for another. But they did not see the cat. The cat was on the table too. The cat liked muffins. The cat saw the hands of Sara and Ben. The cat thought they were trying to take his muffins.
+
+The cat was angry. He hissed and scratched. He jumped on Sara and Ben. He bit their fingers. He clawed their faces. He made them drop the muffins. The muffins fell on the floor.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Sara and Ben cried. They ran away from the cat. They ran to Mom. They showed her their wounds. They were bleeding and hurting.
+
+Mom was shocked. She saw the cat. She saw the muffins. She understood what happened. She was sorry. She hugged Sara and Ben. She said, "Oh, you poor things. That was a terrible cat. He ruined your muffins. He hurt you. I'm so sorry. Let me clean your wounds. Let me make you some new muffins. Let me get rid of that cat."
+
+But it was too late. Sara and Ben did not want any more muffins. They did not want to go to the kitchen. They did not want to see the cat. They were scared and sad. They had a bad day. They wished they never rushed to get the muffins.
+Anna liked to study flowers. She had a book with many pictures of flowers and their names. She learned how to say rose, sunflower, daisy and more. She wanted to see the flowers in real life, not just in the book.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw many flowers in the garden. She ran to them and pointed at them. She said their names out loud. "Rose! Sunflower! Daisy!" She was very happy.
+
+Then she saw a flower she did not know. It was white and had six petals. It smelled very nice. She looked at her book, but she could not find it. She asked her mom, "What is this flower?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "That is a lily. It is a very pretty flower. Do you like it?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Yes, I like it. Lily is a nice name. Can I pick one?"
+
+Her mom said, "No, you cannot pick the flowers. They belong to the park. If you pick them, they will die. And the other people who come to the park will not see them. That is not nice."
+
+Anna understood. She did not want to hurt the flowers or make the other people sad. She said, "OK, I will not pick the flowers. I will just look at them and smell them. They are very beautiful."
+
+Her mom said, "That is very good, Anna. You are a very helpful girl. You help the flowers stay alive and the park stay pretty. I am proud of you."
+
+Anna hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. And I love flowers. I want to study more flowers."
+
+Her mom said, "You are welcome, Anna. I love you too. And I love that you love to study. You are a very smart girl. Come, let's go and see more flowers."
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with their bikes. Lily has a pink bike with a basket. Ben has a blue bike with a bell. They pedal fast and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a new bike in the park. It is shiny and red. It has a horn and a flag. Lily and Ben want to try it. They go near the bike and look at it.
+
+"Wow, this bike is so cool!" Lily says.
+
+"Can we ride it?" Ben asks.
+
+They do not see anyone around. They think the bike does not belong to anyone. They decide to take turns on the bike. Lily goes first. She pedals hard and honks the horn. She feels happy.
+
+Ben waits for his turn. He sees a man walking towards them. The man looks angry. He is holding a sandwich. The sandwich looks tasty.
+
+"Hey, that's my bike!" the man shouts. "What are you doing with it?"
+
+Lily stops the bike and gets off. She is scared. Ben is scared too. They run to their bikes and pedal away. They do not look back.
+
+They learn a lesson. They should not take things that do not belong to them. They should ask first. They should be nice. They are sorry for the man. They hope he enjoys his sandwich.
+Tom and Sue were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big truck with many cages. Inside the cages, there were animals from the jungle. Tom and Sue wanted to see the animals up close, so they followed the truck to a big house.
+
+The big house belonged to a mean man who liked to collect animals from the jungle. He did not care if the animals were happy or sad. He only wanted to show them to his friends and make money. He locked the animals in small rooms and gave them little food and water.
+
+Tom and Sue sneaked into the big house and found the rooms with the animals. They saw lions, monkeys, snakes, birds, and more. They felt sorry for the animals, who looked sad and scared. They wanted to help them, so they opened the doors and let them out.
+
+But the animals did not know Tom and Sue. They were angry and hungry and scared. They did not want to be friends with them. They wanted to escape and go back to the jungle. They ran and jumped and bit and scratched. They made a lot of noise and mess.
+
+The mean man heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. He saw Tom and Sue and the animals. He was very angry and grabbed a big stick. He hit Tom and Sue and the animals. He hurt them a lot. He put them back in the cages and locked them up. He called the police and told them that Tom and Sue were bad children who tried to steal his animals.
+
+Tom and Sue were very sorry and scared. They wished they had not followed the truck. They wished they had listened to their mom and dad, who told them not to go near strangers or wild animals. They learned that some things are better left alone, and that curiosity can lead to trouble. They felt helpless and sad. They did not know what would happen to them or the animals. They hoped someone would come and save them. But no one did. The end.
+
+Moral: Do not go near strangers or wild animals. They can be dangerous and hurt you. Listen to your mom and dad. They know what is best for you.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes in the dirt with their spoons. They hoped to find something shiny or funny in the holes.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a worm!" Tom said, holding up his spoon. "It is long and wiggly."
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is cool!" Lily said. "Can I see it?"
+
+Tom was polite and shared his worm with Lily. They watched it wriggle on the spoon. Then they put it back in the hole and covered it with dirt.
+
+"Maybe the worm will be happy in the hole," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe," Tom said. "Do you want to dig another hole?"
+
+"Yes, let's dig another hole!" Lily said. "Maybe we will find something else."
+
+They dug another hole next to the first one. They hoped to find something new. They dug and dug until they saw something shiny in the hole.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a coin!" Tom said, picking up the shiny thing. "It is round and shiny."
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is cool!" Lily said. "Can I see it?"
+
+Tom was polite and shared his coin with Lily. They looked at it and saw a face and some words on it.
+
+"Who is this?" Lily asked, pointing at the face.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe it is someone important."
+
+"Maybe," Lily said. "Do you want to keep it?"
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He liked the coin, but he also liked Lily. He was polite and said, "No, you can have it. It is a gift for you."
+
+"Really?" Lily said, smiling. "Thank you, Tom. You are very nice."
+
+They hugged and put the coin in Lily's pocket. They were happy and proud of their holes. They hoped to find more things in the garden. They played and played until it was time to go inside.
+Sara and Ben were playing in their room. They had many toys and books on the floor. Mama came and said, "It is time to clean your room. Put your toys and books on the shelf. Be careful with the fragile things. They can break if you drop them."
+
+Sara and Ben nodded and started to clean. Sara picked up a doll and a ball and put them on the shelf. Ben picked up a book and a car and put them on the shelf. They worked together and soon the floor was clear.
+
+But then Ben saw a shiny glass bird on the shelf. He wanted to play with it. He reached for it and pulled it. The bird was fragile and it slipped from his hand. It fell on the floor and broke into pieces.
+
+Sara and Ben gasped. They heard Mama coming. They were scared and sad. They knew the bird was Mama's favorite. They did not know what to do.
+
+Mama came and saw the broken bird. She was angry and sad. She asked, "Who did this? Who broke my bird?"
+
+Sara and Ben looked at each other. They knew they had to tell the truth. They said, "We are sorry, Mama. It was Ben. He wanted to play with the bird. He did not mean to break it."
+
+Mama sighed. She said, "Thank you for telling the truth. I am still angry and sad, but I am also proud of you. You did the right thing. The bird was fragile and you should not have touched it. But you learned your lesson. Next time, you will be more careful and respectful. Now, help me clean the mess and then give me a hug."
+
+Sara and Ben helped Mama clean the mess. They gave her a hug and said, "We love you, Mama. We are sorry for breaking your bird."
+
+Mama hugged them back and said, "I love you too, Sara and Ben. I forgive you for breaking my bird. But please, do not do it again."
+Sam and Tom were brothers who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big hill in the east. They wondered what was on the other side of the hill.
+
+"Let's go and see!" said Sam, who was brave and curious.
+
+"No, it's too far and too hard!" said Tom, who was scared and lazy.
+
+Sam and Tom argued for a while. Then Sam decided to go by himself. He took his backpack and his stick and started to walk to the hill.
+
+Tom stayed behind and watched him go. He felt lonely and bored. He wished he had gone with Sam.
+
+Sam walked for a long time. He saw many things on the way: flowers, birds, rocks, and bugs. He liked to explore and learn. He was happy and excited.
+
+He finally reached the top of the hill. He looked at the other side and saw a mighty river. It was wide and deep and shiny. It made a loud noise as it flowed. Sam was amazed and proud. He had found something new and beautiful.
+
+He wanted to share it with Tom. He shouted his name and waved his stick. But Tom was too far away and could not hear him or see him.
+
+Sam felt sad and lonely. He wished he had Tom with him. He decided to go back and tell him about the river.
+
+He ran down the hill and back to where Tom was. He saw him sitting on the ground, looking sad and bored.
+
+"Tom, Tom, I have something to show you!" said Sam, out of breath.
+
+"What is it?" asked Tom, curious.
+
+"It's a mighty river! It's on the other side of the hill! It's so big and so beautiful! You have to see it!" said Sam, excited.
+
+"Really? A mighty river?" said Tom, surprised.
+
+"Yes, really! Come on, let's go together! It's not too far and not too hard! You'll love it!" said Sam, eager.
+
+"OK, OK, let's go!" said Tom, convinced.
+
+Sam and Tom hugged and smiled. They took their backpacks and their sticks and started to walk to the hill.
+
+They wondered what else they would find on their adventure. They were happy and excited. They were brothers and friends.
+Sam liked to ride his bike. He had a red bike with a bell and a basket. He rode his bike every day with his mom or dad. They went to the park, the store, or the library. Sam was very happy on his bike.
+
+One day, Sam saw a note on the fridge. It was from his mom. It said: "Sam, I have to go to work. Dad will come home soon. Be a good boy and stay inside. Do not ride your bike. Love, Mom." Sam was sad. He wanted to ride his bike. He did not want to stay inside.
+
+He looked out the window. He saw his friend Tom. Tom had a blue bike. He waved at Sam. He said: "Hey, Sam, do you want to ride with me? We can go to the playground. It is fun." Sam was tempted. He liked Tom. He liked the playground. He wanted to have fun.
+
+But Sam remembered his mom's note. He remembered her words. He wanted to be a good boy. He wanted to be obedient. He shook his head. He said: "No, Tom, I can't. My mom said I have to stay inside. She will be mad if I ride my bike. Maybe another day." Tom was disappointed. He said: "OK, Sam, I understand. See you later." He rode away.
+
+Sam went back to the fridge. He looked at the note again. He smiled. He was proud of himself. He had done the right thing. He knew his mom would be happy. He decided to draw a picture for her. He got some paper and crayons. He drew a bike, a note, and a heart. He wrote: "I love you, Mom. I was obedient. Sam." He put the picture on the fridge. He waited for his mom to come home. He knew she would hug him and kiss him. He knew she would say: "You are a very good boy, Sam. I am proud of you." He was happy. He loved his mom. He loved his bike. He loved his life.
+Anna liked to play in the kitchen. She liked to open and close the cabinet doors and look at the things inside. She liked to pretend she was a cook or a baker or a shopper. But there was one cabinet she was not allowed to touch. It was the cabinet under the sink. It had a lock on it and a sign that said "No". Anna always wondered what was in there. She had many questions in her head.
+
+One day, when her mom was busy in the other room, Anna decided to find out. She took a chair and climbed on it. She reached for the lock and tried to open it. She pulled and twisted and pushed, but it did not move. She was frustrated and curious. She did not hear her mom coming back.
+
+"Anna, what are you doing?" her mom asked in a loud voice. She saw Anna on the chair and the lock in her hand. She was angry and scared. She ran to Anna and took her down. She put the lock back on the cabinet and moved the chair away. She looked at Anna with a serious face.
+
+"Anna, you know you are not supposed to touch this cabinet. It is very dangerous. There are things in there that can hurt you or make you sick. They are different from the things in the other cabinets. They are not for playing or eating or smelling. They are for cleaning and fixing and keeping away. You have to listen to me and follow the rules. Do you understand?" her mom said.
+
+Anna felt sorry and ashamed. She nodded her head and said "Yes, mom. I understand. I'm sorry. I won't do it again. I just had a question. What is in there?"
+
+Her mom sighed and hugged her. She said "I know you had a question, Anna. And it's good to be curious and want to learn. But some questions are better left unanswered. Some things are better left alone. Some secrets are better kept. Trust me, Anna. I love you and I want to protect you. Can you trust me?"
+
+Anna hugged her back and said "Yes, mom. I trust you. I love you too. Thank you for protecting me."
+
+Her mom smiled and said "You're welcome, Anna. Now, how about we make some cookies together? You can help me with the ingredients. They are in the other cabinets. The ones you can touch."
+
+Anna smiled and said "Yes, mom. I like cookies. I like helping you. Let's go."
+
+They went to the other cabinets and started to make cookies. Anna forgot about the cabinet under the sink. She was happy and safe. She learned a lesson that day. She learned that some questions are better left unanswered. She learned that some things are better left alone. She learned that some secrets are better kept. She learned to trust her mom. And she learned to enjoy the cookies.
+Lily liked to watch videos on her tablet. She watched videos of animals, songs, and stories. She watched videos every day after school. But sometimes, her mom said, "No more videos, Lily. Time to do your homework." Lily did not like that. She wanted to watch more videos.
+
+One day, Lily had a lot of homework. She had to write her name, draw a picture, and count to ten. Her mom said, "Lily, you have to do your homework before you watch videos. Be an obedient girl and do your work." Lily nodded, but she was not happy. She did not want to do her homework. She wanted to watch videos.
+
+She wrote her name very fast. She drew a picture very fast. She counted to ten very fast. Then she grabbed her tablet and turned it on. She thought her mom would not notice. She started to watch a video of a funny monkey.
+
+But her mom did notice. She came into Lily's room and saw her watching the video. She was not happy. She said, "Lily, what are you doing? You did not finish your homework. You were not obedient. You were naughty. Give me the tablet right now." She took the tablet from Lily and turned it off.
+
+Lily was sad. She started to cry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I did my homework. I just wanted to watch one video. Please, can I have the tablet back?" Her mom said, "No, Lily. You have to learn your lesson. You have to be obedient and do your homework first. Then you can watch videos. But only for a little while. Videos are not good for you all the time. They can hurt your eyes and your brain. You have to do other things, like read books, play games, and talk to me."
+
+Lily stopped crying. She looked at her mom. She said, "I understand, mom. You are right. Videos are not good for me all the time. I have to do other things. I'm sorry I was naughty. I will be obedient next time. Thank you, mom, for teaching me." Her mom smiled. She said, "You're welcome, Lily. I love you. Now, let's finish your homework together. Then we can watch one video together. How about that?" Lily smiled. She said, "I love you too, mom. That sounds good. Let's do that." She hugged her mom and they finished her homework together. Then they watched one video together. It was a video of a funny monkey. They laughed and had fun. Lily was happy. She learned her lesson. She was obedient.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play outside in the sun. The sun gives them heat and makes them happy. They also like to collect things they find on the ground. They collect rocks, leaves, flowers and shells.
+
+One day, they see a beautiful butterfly. It has many colors on its wings. It flies from one flower to another. Lila and Ben want to collect the butterfly. They run after it with a net.
+
+"Look, Ben, the butterfly is on that yellow flower!" Lila says.
+
+"Let's catch it, Lila!" Ben says.
+
+They try to catch the butterfly, but it is too fast. It flies away from them. They follow it to another flower, and then another. They run and run, but they cannot catch it.
+
+They stop and breathe hard. They are tired and hot. They look at the butterfly. It is still flying and looking for flowers.
+
+"Maybe we should not catch the butterfly, Ben," Lila says.
+
+"Why not, Lila?" Ben says.
+
+"Because the butterfly is free and happy. It likes to fly and find flowers. If we catch it, it will be sad and scared. It will not have heat and colors," Lila says.
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He nods.
+
+"You are right, Lila. The butterfly is beautiful, but we should not collect it. We should let it be free and happy. We have many other things to collect," Ben says.
+
+They smile at each other. They put down their net. They pick up their rocks, leaves, flowers and shells. They go back to their house. They show their parents what they have collected. They are proud and happy. They still like the butterfly, but they also like their things. They are friends.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big dog with a long tail and a loud bark. Lily wanted to pet the dog, but Tom was nervous. He did not like dogs.
+
+"Can we go and say hello to the dog?" Lily asked Tom.
+
+Tom shook his head. "No, I am scared of the dog. He might bite us."
+
+Lily frowned. "But he looks friendly. He is wagging his tail. Maybe he wants to play with us."
+
+Tom shrugged his body. He did not know what to say. He just wanted to stay away from the dog.
+
+Lily walked towards the dog. She smiled and said, "Hi, doggy. What is your name?"
+
+The dog ran to Lily and licked her face. He was happy to see her. He wagged his tail more.
+
+Lily laughed and hugged the dog. She said, "You are a good doggy. I like you."
+
+Tom watched from a distance. He felt a little curious. Maybe the dog was not so bad after all. He took a step closer to Lily and the dog. He said, "Hi, doggy. Can I pet you too?"
+Lily and Ben were having lunch with Mom and Dad. They had soup and bread and cheese. Lily liked soup, but Ben did not. He wanted cake.
+
+"Can I have cake, Mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, Ben, you have to eat your soup first. Cake is for dessert," Mom said.
+
+Ben made a face. He did not want to eat his soup. He pushed his bowl away. He saw Lily's fork on the table. He had an idea. He grabbed the fork and threw it at Lily.
+
+"Ow!" Lily cried. The fork hit her arm. It hurt. She was angry. She picked up the fork and slapped Ben on the head.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Dad shouted. He took the fork from Lily and put it back on the table. He looked at Ben and Lily. They both had red marks on their skin. He was not happy.
+
+"That was very bad, Ben. You do not throw forks at your sister. And that was very bad, Lily. You do not slap your brother. You both have to say sorry and hug each other," Dad said.
+
+Ben and Lily did not want to say sorry or hug. They were still mad. But they knew Dad was serious. They did not want to make him more angry. They said sorry and hugged each other. They did not mean it.
+
+Mom gave them a tissue to wipe their tears. She gave them a kiss and a hug. She said she loved them. She said they had to be nice to each other. She said they could have cake if they ate their soup.
+
+Ben and Lily looked at the cake. It was chocolate. It had sprinkles. It looked yummy. They decided to eat their soup. They did not want to miss the cake. They ate their soup very fast. They did not talk to each other. They hoped the cake would make them feel better.
+Tom and Sue were twins. They liked to play and run and jump. But they did not like to nap. Every day, their mom would say, "It is time to nap. You need to rest and grow." But Tom and Sue would say, "No, no, we want to play. We are not tired. We are not lazy."
+
+One day, their mom had a surprise for them. She said, "I have a new book for you. It is about a bear and a year. Do you want to hear it?" Tom and Sue loved books. They said, "Yes, yes, we want to hear it. What is a year? What does the bear do?"
+
+Their mom smiled and took them to their room. She said, "A year is a long time. It has many days and nights. The bear lives in the woods. He likes to eat and sleep and play. But when the year gets cold and snowy, he does something special. He settles in his cave and naps for a long time. He does not wake up until the year gets warm and sunny again. He is not lazy. He is smart. He saves his energy for when he needs it."
+
+Tom and Sue listened to their mom. They looked at the pictures of the bear and the year. They asked many questions. They learned new words. They felt their eyes get heavy. They yawned and cuddled with their mom. They said, "Mom, we like the bear and the year. We want to be like the bear. We want to settle and nap. We are not lazy. We are smart. We will save our energy for when we need it."
+
+Their mom kissed them and said, "I am proud of you, Tom and Sue. You are good listeners and learners. You are like the bear. You know when to settle and nap. You are not lazy. You are smart. You will have more energy for when you wake up. Sweet dreams, my twins. I love you." She turned off the light and left the room. Tom and Sue closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of the bear and the year.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with many branches. They wanted to climb the tree and have fun.
+
+"Let's go up there!" Ben said. "We can see the whole park from the top!"
+
+"OK!" Sara said. "But be careful. The branches are thin and might break."
+
+They ran to the tree and started to climb. They chose different branches to go higher and higher. They laughed and shouted as they climbed.
+
+But they did not see the man behind the tree. He was wearing a dark coat and a hat. He had a big bag and a sharp cut in his hand. He was mysterious and mean. He wanted to steal things from the park.
+
+He saw Sara and Ben climbing the tree. He smiled a wicked smile. He had a bad idea. He waited for them to reach the top. Then he took his cut and went to the bottom of the tree. He began to cut the trunk of the tree.
+
+Sara and Ben heard a loud noise. They looked down and saw the man cutting the tree. They were scared and screamed.
+
+"Help! Help! Someone is cutting the tree!" Sara cried.
+
+"Stop! Stop! What are you doing?" Ben yelled.
+
+But the man did not stop. He cut faster and faster. The tree began to shake and crack. Sara and Ben held on to the branches, but they could not stay. The tree fell to the ground with a big thud. Sara and Ben fell with the tree. They were hurt and sad.
+
+The man grabbed his bag and ran away. He did not care about Sara and Ben. He only cared about the things he stole from the park.
+
+Sara and Ben lay on the ground. They cried and wished they had not climbed the tree. They wished someone would help them. But no one came. The park was empty and quiet. The end.
+Sam and Mia like to play with their ball. They roll it to each other on the ground. Sometimes they kick it or throw it. They have fun with their ball.
+
+One day, they see a big hill near their house. They want to roll down the hill. They think it will be fun. They ask their mom if they can go. She says yes, but they have to be careful.
+
+They take their ball and go to the hill. They find a spot that is not too steep or rocky. They sit on the ground and hold their ball. They look at each other and smile. They are ready to roll.
+
+They push themselves off the ground and start to roll. They feel the wind and the grass on their faces. They laugh and scream. They roll faster and faster. They feel dizzy and happy.
+
+They reach the bottom of the hill. They stop rolling and lie on the ground. They look at the sky and breathe. They are tired but happy. They hug their ball and each other. They love to roll.
+Tommy wanted to help his mom make a cake. He saw a big bowl with flour and eggs and sugar on the table. He also saw a mixer with a long cord and a switch. He thought the mixer looked fun. He wanted to see what it could do.
+
+He climbed on a chair and reached for the mixer. He turned the switch on and the mixer started to spin very fast. He was surprised and happy. He put the mixer in the bowl and watched the flour and eggs and sugar fly everywhere. He laughed and said, "Look, mom, I'm mixing!"
+
+Mom heard the noise and came into the kitchen. She saw Tommy with the mixer and the mess on the table and the floor and the walls. She was angry and scared. She shouted, "Tommy, stop that! You're making a big mess and you could hurt yourself!"
+
+She ran to the table and took the mixer from Tommy. She turned the switch off and put the mixer away. She looked at Tommy and said, "Tommy, you can't play with the mixer. It's not a toy. It's a tool for making cakes. You have to ask me before you touch it. Do you understand?"
+
+Tommy looked at mom and the mixer and the mess. He was confused and sad. He didn't mean to make mom angry or scared. He just wanted to help and have fun. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I didn't know. I wanted to help you make a cake. Can I still help you?"
+
+Mom sighed and hugged Tommy. She said, "It's okay, Tommy. I know you didn't know. But you have to be careful and listen to me. The mixer can be dangerous if you don't use it right. You can still help me make a cake, but first we have to clean up this mess. Will you help me with that?"
+
+Tommy nodded and smiled. He said, "Yes, mom. I will help you clean up. And then we can make a cake together. I love you, mom."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Tommy. Now let's get a mop and a cloth and start cleaning."
+Lily liked to dance. She danced in her room, in the garden, and in the park. She had a pink dress and pink boots that made her happy. She liked to show her dance to everyone.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a big slide and wanted to go on it. She ran to the slide and climbed up the steps. She was ready to slide down and dance.
+
+But she did not see the mud at the bottom of the slide. She slid down very fast and landed in the mud. Her pink dress and pink boots were dirty and wet. She felt cold and sad. She cried and cried.
+
+Her mom came to help her. She said, "Don't worry, Lily. We can wash your dress and boots and make them clean again. Let's go home and change your clothes."
+
+But Lily did not want to go home. She wanted to dance in the park. She did not like the mud. She did not like her dress and boots anymore. She threw them away and said, "I hate pink!"
+Ben and Lily were friends. They liked to play with toys and books. One day, Ben saw a new car toy in Lily's room. He wanted to play with it. He asked Lily, "Can I have your car toy?"
+
+Lily said, "No, this is my car toy. I got it from my mom for doing a good job. You have your own toys."
+
+Ben felt angry. He said, "That is not fair. You have too many toys. I want your car toy." He grabbed the car toy from Lily's hand and ran away.
+
+Lily felt sad. She cried and told her mom what happened. Her mom said, "That was not nice of Ben. He should not take your things without asking. But maybe he was feeling jealous or lonely. Maybe he needs a friend."
+
+Lily thought about what her mom said. She was still hurt, but she also felt sorry for Ben. She was a thoughtful girl. She decided to forgive Ben and share her toys with him. She took another toy and went to find Ben.
+
+She found Ben in the backyard. He was playing with the car toy, but he did not look happy. He saw Lily and felt guilty. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was wrong. I should not have taken your car toy. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I forgive you, Ben. You are my friend. Friends make mistakes, but they also say sorry and make up. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, I want to play with you, Lily. Thank you for being kind and thoughtful. Can we share the car toy?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, we can share the car toy. And I have another toy for you. Look, it is a plane toy. It can fly in the air. Do you like it?"
+
+Ben said, "Wow, I like it. It is cool. Thank you, Lily. You are the best friend ever."
+
+They hugged and smiled. They played with the car and the plane toys. They had fun and learned to share and forgive.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the bathtub. They had many toys to make bubbles and splash. But one day, the bathtub was broken. Water came out of a big hole and made the floor wet.
+
+"Mama, mama, look!" Ben shouted. He pointed at the hole. "The bathtub is broken!"
+
+Mama came and saw the mess. She was not happy. She turned off the water and got a big towel. She wrapped Ben and Lily in the towel and took them out of the bathroom.
+
+"I'm sorry, mama," Lily said. "We didn't know the bathtub was broken."
+
+"It's okay, my loves," Mama said. "But we can't use the bathtub until it is fixed. We have to take showers instead."
+
+Ben and Lily did not like showers. They liked to sit in the warm water and play. They did not like the water on their heads and eyes. They made sad faces.
+
+"Maybe we can fix the bathtub," Ben said.
+
+"How?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He remembered something he saw in his room. He had an idea.
+
+"Come on, Lily," he said. "I know what to do."
+
+He took Lily's hand and ran to his room. He opened his toy box and took out a roll of tape. He smiled and said, "This will fix the bathtub!"
+
+He ran back to the bathroom with Lily and the tape. He tried to stick the tape over the hole. But the tape did not stick. It fell off and got wet. Ben tried again and again, but it did not work.
+
+"Mama, mama, help!" Ben shouted. He was frustrated and sad. "The tape doesn't work!"
+
+Mama came and saw what Ben and Lily were doing. She sighed and shook her head. She hugged them and said, "You can't fix the bathtub with tape, my loves. We need a plumber to fix it. Tape is for paper, not for bathtubs."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other. They did not know what a plumber was. But they knew they made a mistake. They said sorry to Mama and gave her a kiss.
+
+"It's okay, my loves," Mama said. "You tried to help. But next time, please ask me before you use my tape. And don't go in the bathroom when the bathtub is broken. It's not safe."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They learned something new. They hoped the plumber would come soon and fix the bathtub. They missed their bath time.
+Lila and Ben were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a big bucket of water and some cups. They liked to pour water on the plants and on each other.
+
+"Look, Lila, I can pour water on this flower. It is blue and pretty," Ben said.
+
+"Yes, Ben, it is. But be careful, don't pour too much water. The flower needs some, but not all," Lila said.
+
+"Why not? Water is good for the flower. It makes it grow and shine," Ben said.
+
+Lila tried to explain, but Ben did not listen. He poured more and more water on the flower, until it was all wet and droopy.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a noise. It was a small animal. It was blue and furry. It looked like a cat, but with wings. It was flying towards the flower.
+
+"Wow, Lila, look at that! It is a blue animal. It is so cute and funny. Maybe it wants to play with us," Ben said.
+
+Lila was curious, too. She wanted to see the blue animal. But she also noticed something else. The blue animal was holding a cup in its paw. It was full of water.
+
+The blue animal flew over the flower and poured the water on it. The flower perked up and smiled. It was happy and grateful.
+
+The blue animal smiled, too. It said, "Thank you, children, for watering my flower. It is my friend and my home. I live in it and take care of it. But you poured too much water on it. It was sad and sick. You have to be gentle and respectful with the plants. They are alive and have feelings, too."
+
+Lila and Ben felt sorry. They did not mean to hurt the flower. They said, "We are sorry, blue animal. We did not know. We wanted to help the flower, not harm it. We will be more careful next time. We will only pour a little water, not a lot."
+
+The blue animal nodded. It said, "That is good, children. I forgive you. You are kind and brave. You can play with me and my flower, if you want. But remember, water is precious and powerful. Use it wisely and kindly."
+
+Lila and Ben agreed. They thanked the blue animal and the flower. They played with them for a while, then went back to their toys. They learned a lesson that day. They learned to respect nature and to pour water with care.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new girl on the swings. She has long hair and a pink dress. Lily and Ben want to say hello.
+
+"Hi, I am Lily. This is Ben. What is your name?" Lily asks.
+
+"Hi, I am Mia. I am new here. I just moved with my mom and dad," Mia says.
+
+"Do you want to play with us?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, please. I like to play," Mia says.
+
+They run to the slide and take turns. They have fun. Then they hear a bell. It is snack time. They go to the picnic table. Lily's mom has a big basket. She opens it and takes out some cups and plates.
+
+"Who is your new friend, Lily?" Lily's mom asks.
+
+"This is Mia. She is new. She likes to play," Lily says.
+
+"Hello, Mia. I am Lily's mom. Nice to meet you," Lily's mom says.
+
+"Hello, Lily's mom. Nice to meet you, too," Mia says.
+
+Lily's mom smiles. She takes out a big mixer. She puts some bananas, strawberries, milk and honey in it. She turns it on. It makes a loud noise. The mixer mixes everything together. It makes a pink drink.
+
+"What is that?" Mia asks.
+
+"It is a smoothie. It is a healthy drink. It has fruits and milk. Do you want to try some?" Lily's mom asks.
+
+"Yes, please. It looks yummy," Mia says.
+
+Lily's mom pours some smoothie in each cup. She gives one to Lily, one to Ben and one to Mia. They sip their smoothies. They like them. They say thank you to Lily's mom.
+
+"You are welcome. I am glad you like them. You are a very nice girl, Mia. I hope you come to play again," Lily's mom says.
+
+"I will. Thank you, Lily's mom. You are very nice, too. And thank you, Lily and Ben, for being my friends," Mia says.
+
+They smile at each other. They finish their smoothies. They go back to play. They are happy. They have a new friend.
+Sara and Ben went to the shop with Mom. They wanted to buy a toy car and a doll. Mom said they had to share the money in the jar. Sara counted the money. She said they had ten coins.
+
+They saw a big toy car with lights and sounds. Ben liked it a lot. He said he wanted it. Sara looked at the price. It was nine coins. She said it was too much. She said they would not have enough money for the doll.
+
+Ben did not listen. He was deaf. He took the toy car and gave it to the shop lady. He gave her all the coins. The shop lady smiled and said thank you. She gave him a small coin as change.
+
+Sara was angry. She said Ben was not fair. She said he took all the money and left her nothing. She said he did not care about her. She cried.
+
+Mom saw Sara crying. She asked her what was wrong. Sara told her what Ben did. Mom was sad. She said Ben did not understand the price. She said he did not hear her. She said he was deaf. She said they had to help him learn.
+
+She took Sara and Ben to another shop. She bought a doll for Sara with her own money. She gave it to her and hugged her. She said she was sorry. She said she loved her.
+
+Sara smiled. She said she was sorry too. She said she loved Ben. She hugged him. She gave him the small coin. She said it was his change. She said they could play with the toy car and the doll together. Ben smiled too. He nodded. He said thank you. He said he loved Sara and Mom. They went home happy.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big box in the garage. They decided to make a boat with the box. They used some paper, crayons, and tape to decorate the boat. They put a sail on the boat with a stick and a cloth.
+
+"Let's sail to an island!" Lily said.
+
+"Okay, but we need a baby to come with us," Ben said.
+
+They looked around and saw their baby brother, Sam, sleeping in his crib. They took Sam and put him in the boat. They pushed the boat out of the garage and into the backyard.
+
+"Look, we are sailing!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, we are! This is cool!" Ben said.
+
+They pretended to see fish, birds, and pirates on their way. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard their mom calling them.
+
+"Lily! Ben! Sam! Where are you?"
+
+They realized they had been gone for a long time. They felt sorry for leaving their mom without telling her. They quickly pushed the boat back to the garage and took Sam out of the boat. They ran to their mom and hugged her.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We were playing with the box and we took Sam with us. We wanted to sail to an island," Lily said.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We didn't mean to make you worry. We had fun, but we missed you," Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed them.
+
+"I'm glad you had fun, but you should always tell me where you are going. And you should be careful with Sam. He is too little to sail with you. He needs his nap and his milk," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They learned their lesson. They loved their mom and their baby brother. They put the boat away and helped Mom with Sam. They decided to sail another day, but only with Mom's permission.
+Lila and Ben are twins who like to explore. They have a big map of their backyard, where they draw all the things they find. They have a unique map, because no one else has one like it.
+
+One day, they decide to go on a new adventure. They pack some snacks, a water bottle, and their map in a backpack. They tell their mom they are going to explore.
+
+"Be careful, and don't leave the backyard," their mom says.
+
+"Okay, mom, we won't," they say.
+
+They put on their backpack and go outside. They look at their map and choose a spot they have not been to before. It is near the fence, where there are some bushes and flowers.
+
+They walk to the spot and see something shiny under the bushes. They bend down and pull it out. It is a metal box with a lock.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Lila asks.
+
+"Maybe it is a treasure," Ben says.
+
+They try to open the box, but it is locked. They look for a key, but they can't find one.
+
+"Maybe the key is on the map," Lila says.
+
+They take out their map and look at it. They see a small X near the corner of the fence.
+
+"Let's go there," Ben says.
+
+They follow the map and find the X. It is a small hole in the fence. They peek through the hole and see a garden on the other side.
+
+"Look, there is a key hanging on a tree," Lila says.
+
+They reach through the hole and grab the key. They are happy and excited.
+
+They run back to the box and use the key to open it. Inside, they find some coins, a necklace, and a note.
+
+The note says: "This is a gift for the brave explorers who find this box. You have a unique map and a curious spirit. Keep exploring and have fun. Love, Grandma."
+
+Lila and Ben smile and hug each other. They have found a treasure from their grandma, who lives far away.
+
+They put the note, the coins, and the necklace in their backpack. They close the box and put it back under the bushes.
+
+They go back to their mom and show her what they found. She is surprised and proud.
+
+"That is amazing, my little explorers," she says. "Your grandma is very clever and kind. She wanted to give you a special surprise."
+
+Lila and Ben thank their mom and their grandma. They look at their map and wonder what else they can discover. They have a unique map and a unique adventure.
+Lily and Ben are playing with paper and scissors. They are making shapes and animals. Lily likes to make flowers and butterflies. Ben likes to make cars and rockets.
+
+"Look at my flower, Ben. It is pink and pretty," Lily says. She shows Ben her paper flower.
+
+"Your flower is boring, Lily. Look at my rocket, Lily. It is fast and cool," Ben says. He shows Lily his paper rocket.
+
+Lily and Ben do not like each other's shapes. They start to argue. They say mean words to each other.
+
+"Your rocket is ugly, Ben. It is not a real rocket. It is just paper," Lily says.
+
+"Your flower is disgusting, Lily. It is not a real flower. It is just paper," Ben says.
+
+They get angry and try to cut each other's shapes with scissors. They are not careful. They cut their fingers. They start to cry.
+
+Mom hears them crying. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the paper and scissors and the blood.
+
+"What are you doing, Lily and Ben? Why are you playing with scissors? Why are you cutting each other's shapes? Why are you crying?" Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben are sorry. They say sorry to Mom. They say sorry to each other. They hug and make up.
+
+Mom helps them clean their fingers. She puts band-aids on them. She tells them to be nice and share. She tells them to be careful with scissors. She tells them to love their shapes.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They like their shapes. They like each other. They say thank you to Mom. They play nicely with paper and scissors.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside. One day, it is raining. Tom and Mia want to go out, but they need an umbrella.
+
+Tom has a big umbrella. He sets it on the floor and opens it. He says, "Mia, come with me. We can share my umbrella."
+
+Mia is happy. She runs to Tom and holds his hand. They go out and splash in the puddles. They have fun.
+
+But then, a big wind comes. It blows Tom's umbrella away. Tom and Mia are wet and sad. They cry.
+
+A lady sees them. She has a small umbrella. She is helpful. She walks to Tom and Mia and says, "Don't cry, children. You can have my umbrella. I have a coat. I don't need it."
+
+Tom and Mia smile. They say, "Thank you, lady. You are very kind."
+
+The lady gives them her umbrella. They hold it together and go back to their house. They are dry and happy. They hug the lady and say, "Bye, bye, lady. You are our friend."
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with their toy planes and pretend to fly in the sky. They made zoom and whoosh sounds as they moved their planes around.
+
+One day, when they were playing in the park, they felt the ground shake. It was an earthquake. They were scared and dropped their planes. They heard people scream and run. They held each other's hands and looked for a safe place.
+
+They saw a big tree with strong roots. They ran to the tree and hugged it. They prayed that the earthquake would stop soon. They felt the tree sway and crack, but it did not fall. They thanked the tree for protecting them.
+
+After a while, the earthquake stopped. They saw their planes on the ground, broken and dirty. They felt sad and cried. They had lost their favorite toys.
+
+But then they looked at each other and smiled. They still had their best friend. They hugged and said, "We are loyal to each other. We will always stick together, no matter what."
+
+They learned that friendship is more important than toys. They also learned to be grateful for the things that keep them safe, like the tree. They decided to plant a new tree in the park, to show their love and respect for nature. They hoped that their new tree would grow big and strong, and help other people and animals in case of another earthquake.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw a big hole in the ground. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Let's go and look," Ben said. He was curious and brave.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Lily said. She was cautious and kind.
+
+They ran to the hole and peered inside. It was dark and deep. They could not see anything.
+
+"Hello, hello," Ben shouted. He wanted to hear his voice echo.
+
+But instead of an echo, they heard a growl. A big, furry animal came out of the hole. It had sharp teeth and claws. It was a bear!
+
+The bear was hungry and angry. It saw Ben and Lily and wanted to eat them. It roared and chased them.
+
+"Run, run," Lily screamed. She was scared and smart.
+
+Ben and Lily ran as fast as they could. They reached the gate of the park and ran out. They were safe.
+
+They looked back and saw the bear. It was still in the park. It could not fit through the gate. It had gained too much weight from eating other animals. It was stuck.
+
+Ben and Lily laughed. They thought the bear was silly and fat. They did not think it was attractive at all.
+
+They went home and told their mom and dad what happened. They were proud and happy. They had a big adventure.
+Lily and Ben like to play in the park. They have a toy boat with a sail. They put the boat in the pond and watch it go. The wind makes the sail move.
+
+A duck sees the boat. The duck is nosy. It swims to the boat and pecks at the sail. The boat tips over and the sail falls off. Lily and Ben are sad.
+
+They run to the pond and try to get the boat and the sail. But the pond is too deep and too wet. They cannot reach the boat and the sail. The duck quacks and swims away.
+
+A man sees Lily and Ben. The man is kind. He has a big stick. He uses the stick to spring the boat and the sail out of the pond. He gives them to Lily and Ben. Lily and Ben are happy.
+
+They say thank you to the man. They fix the boat and the sail. They play with the boat again. They are careful of the duck. The duck is still nosy. But it does not peck at the sail anymore.
+Lily liked to crawl under the bed and play with her toys. She had a doll, a bear, a ball and a book. She made up stories with them and had fun. She did not like to share her toys with her brother Tom. Tom was older and bigger and sometimes took her toys away.
+
+One day, Lily was under the bed with her toys when she heard Tom come into the room. She was scared that he would find her and take her toys. She crawled deeper under the bed and hid behind a big chest. The chest was old and dusty and had a lock on it. Lily wondered what was inside the chest. Maybe it had more toys or something shiny.
+
+She reached out her hand and touched the lock. It was cold and hard. She tried to move it, but it did not budge. She pulled harder, but it still did not move. She got angry and kicked the chest with her foot. The chest made a loud noise and shook. Lily heard something fall inside the chest. She was curious and wanted to see what it was.
+
+She crawled closer to the chest and peeked inside. She saw a picture of a man and a woman. They looked happy and smiled. They had a baby in their arms. The baby looked like Lily. Lily realized that the picture was of her mom and dad and her when she was very small. She felt a warm feeling in her heart. She wanted to take the picture and keep it with her.
+
+She reached inside the chest and grabbed the picture. But as she did, she also touched something else. It was sharp and pointy and hurt her hand. She screamed and dropped the picture. She looked at her hand and saw blood. She was hurt and scared. She crawled out of the chest and cried.
+
+Tom heard her cry and ran into the room. He saw her under the bed with blood on her hand. He also saw the chest open and the picture on the floor. He knew that the picture was very important to mom and dad. They had told him that it was the only thing they had left from their old home that burned down. They had kept it in the chest for safekeeping. They had told him to never touch the chest or the picture.
+
+Tom was angry and sad. He yelled at Lily and called her a bad girl. He told her that she had ruined the picture and hurt herself. He told her that mom and dad would be very mad at her. He told her to go to her room and stay there. He picked up the picture and tried to fix it, but it was torn and dirty. He put it back in the chest and locked it. He hoped that mom and dad would not notice.
+
+Lily was ashamed and sorry. She did not mean to hurt the picture or herself. She did not know that the chest had something so special inside. She wished she had not been so curious and greedy. She wished she had shared her toys with Tom. She wished she had listened to mom and dad. She crawled out of the bed and ran to her room. She hid under her blanket and cried. She felt very bad. She did not know how to make things better. She waited for mom and dad to come home and punish her. She was afraid of what they would say and do. She wished she could go back in time and change everything. But she could not. She had made a big mistake. The end.
+Tom and Mia are twins. They share a room and a bed. Every night, they dream of different things. Tom dreams of flying in the sky with birds and stars. Mia dreams of swimming in the sea with fish and shells. They like their dreams very much.
+
+But one night, they have a bad dream. They dream of a big, scary monster that chases them and wants to eat them. They run and hide, but the monster finds them. They scream and cry, but no one hears them. They feel very weak and afraid.
+
+"Tom, what do we do?" Mia asks.
+
+"I don't know, Mia. We have to escape!" Tom says.
+
+They look around and see a window. They run to the window and open it. They see the sky and the sea outside. They remember their good dreams.
+
+"Maybe we can fly or swim away from the monster!" Mia says.
+
+"Let's try!" Tom says.
+
+They hold hands and jump out of the window. They feel a breeze and a splash. They close their eyes and hope.
+
+They wake up in their bed. They are safe and warm. They hug each other and smile.
+
+"It was just a dream, Mia. A bad dream. But we escaped!" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, Tom. A bad dream. But we have each other. And we have good dreams too!" Mia says.
+
+They snuggle under the blanket and fall asleep again. They dream of flying and swimming. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and run in the park. But sometimes they also like to tease each other.
+
+One day, Lily sees that Ben has a loose tooth. She thinks it is funny and wants to make him laugh. She says, "Ben, Ben, your tooth is wiggly. It will fall out soon. Then you will have a big hole in your mouth. You will look silly."
+
+Ben does not think it is funny. He feels sad and angry. He says, "Lily, stop teasing me. It is not nice. My tooth is not wiggly. It is strong and white. You are just jealous because you have no loose teeth."
+
+Lily and Ben start to argue. They raise their voices and make faces at each other. They do not hear their mom calling them for lunch.
+
+Mom comes to their room and sees them fighting. She is not happy. She says, "Lily and Ben, what are you doing? Why are you teasing each other? You should be kind and gentle. Come and eat your lunch. It is hot and yummy. You need to take care of your teeth and your tummies."
+
+Lily and Ben stop arguing. They feel sorry and hug each other. They say, "Sorry, mom. Sorry, Ben. Sorry, Lily. We love each other. We will not tease anymore."
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them back. She says, "That's good. I love you too. Now let's go and eat. And after lunch, we can go to the park and play."
+Tom and Mia like to play outside when it rains. They put on their boots and coats and run to the park. They splash in the puddles and laugh. They see a big puddle near the slide and run to it.
+
+"Look, Mia, this puddle is huge!" Tom says. "Let's jump in it!"
+
+"OK, Tom, but be careful!" Mia says. "It might be deep!"
+
+They hold hands and count to three. Then they jump in the puddle. But the puddle is deeper than they thought. They sink into the water and get wet all over. They feel cold and uncomfortable.
+
+"Help!" Tom cries. "I don't like this puddle!"
+
+"Me neither!" Mia cries. "Let's get out!"
+
+They try to get out, but the puddle is muddy and slippery. They can't find their boots. They start to cry.
+
+"Tom! Mia! What are you doing?" They hear a voice. It is their mom. She sees them in the puddle and runs to them. She pauses and shakes her head. "Oh, you two! You are so messy!"
+
+She helps them out of the puddle and gives them a hug. She takes off their wet coats and socks. She finds their boots and puts them in a bag. She says, "Let's go home and get dry and warm. And next time, be more careful with the puddles!"
+
+Tom and Mia nod. They are sorry and thankful. They hold their mom's hand and walk home. They still like to play in the rain, but they don't like that puddle anymore.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They saw a big red rose with many petals. Lily wanted to smell it, but Ben stopped her.
+
+"Look!" he said. He pointed to something on the rose. "A fairy!"
+
+Lily looked where Ben pointed. She saw a tiny person with wings. The fairy was shining like a star. She smiled at Lily and Ben.
+
+"Hello, children," the fairy said. "I am Rose, the fairy of the rose. You are very kind to visit me."
+
+Lily and Ben were amazed. They had never seen a fairy before. They wanted to talk to her.
+
+"Hi, Rose," Lily said. "You are very pretty. Can we be your friends?"
+
+"Of course," Rose said. "You are very sweet. Do you want to see my home?"
+
+"Yes, please," Ben said. "Is it in the rose?"
+
+Rose nodded. She flew to the rose and opened a small door. She invited Lily and Ben to follow her. They crawled inside the rose. It was like a great palace. There were many rooms and things to see. Rose showed them her bed, her kitchen, her books, and her toys. Lily and Ben had a lot of fun with Rose. They played games and told stories. They forgot about the time.
+
+They heard their mother calling them. It was time to go inside. They said goodbye to Rose. She gave them each a kiss and a petal.
+
+"Thank you for coming," she said. "You are very special. Come back anytime."
+
+Lily and Ben thanked Rose. They crawled out of the rose and ran to their mother. They told her about their new friend. Their mother smiled and hugged them.
+
+"What a wonderful adventure," she said. "You met a fairy. That is very rare. You are very lucky."
+
+Lily and Ben agreed. They felt very happy. They looked at the rose and waved to Rose. They knew they would see her again. They had a great day.
+Lily and Tom were bored. They wanted to play with their toys, but their toys had no power. They needed new batteries. They looked in the drawer, but they only found fake batteries. Fake batteries were shiny and round, but they did not work.
+
+"Let's bake the fake batteries!" Lily said. "Maybe they will become real!"
+
+Tom agreed. He liked to bake. He helped Lily put the fake batteries in a bowl. They added some flour, some water, and some sugar. They stirred and stirred. They made a big mess.
+
+They put the bowl in the oven. They turned it on. They waited and waited. They smelled something bad. They saw some smoke. They heard a loud boom.
+
+The oven exploded. The fake batteries burst. The bowl broke. The kitchen was on fire. Lily and Tom screamed. Their mom and dad ran to the kitchen. They were very angry and scared.
+
+They called the firemen. The firemen came and put out the fire. They checked Lily and Tom. They were not hurt, but they were very sorry. They learned a lesson. They never baked fake batteries again.
+Lily was a girl who liked to help her mom. She liked to cook, clean, and sew with her mom. One day, her mom's purse broke. The strap came off and the zipper was stuck. Her mom was sad because she needed her purse to go to work.
+
+Lily said, "Don't be sad, mom. I can help you. I can repair your purse. I learned how to sew from you."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are very kind and smart. But how will you repair my purse? It is very hard to fix."
+
+Lily said, "I have an idea. I can use some of my old clothes to make a new strap and a new zipper. I have scissors, needles, and thread. I can cut, stitch, and glue. It will be fun and easy."
+
+Her mom said, "That sounds wonderful, Lily. But you have to be careful with the scissors, needles, and glue. They can hurt you if you are not careful. And you have to ask me before you use any of my things. OK?"
+
+Lily said, "OK, mom. I will be careful and ask you. Can I use your old blue dress and your old pink sweater? They are very pretty and soft."
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, you can use them. They are too small for me anyway. But you have to finish your homework first. You can't be lazy and skip your homework. Homework is important for learning."
+
+Lily said, "OK, mom. I will do my homework first. Then I will repair your purse. You will love it. It will be the best purse ever."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I love you, Lily. You are the best daughter ever."
+Lily loved to learn new things. She liked to read books, play games, and ask questions. One day, she wanted to learn how to make pastry. Pastry was a yummy food that she ate sometimes for breakfast or dessert. It was soft and sweet and had different shapes and fillings.
+
+She asked her mom if she could help her make pastry. Her mom said yes and smiled. She took Lily to the kitchen and showed her the ingredients. They had flour, butter, sugar, eggs, and some fruits. Her mom said they would make some croissants and some pies. Lily was excited.
+
+Her mom taught her how to mix the flour and butter, how to roll the dough, how to cut it into triangles, and how to shape it into croissants. Lily was very careful and followed her mom's instructions. She also learned how to fill the pies with fruits and cover them with more dough. She used a fork to make some patterns on the edges. She was very creative.
+
+They put the pastry in the oven and waited for it to bake. Lily could smell the delicious aroma and her mouth watered. She asked her mom if they could eat some when they were ready. Her mom said yes and gave her a hug. She said she was very proud of Lily for learning how to make pastry.
+
+When the pastry was done, they took it out of the oven and let it cool. Then they cut some pieces and put them on a plate. They invited Lily's dad and brother to join them. They all enjoyed the pastry and praised Lily for her work. Lily felt happy and thanked her mom for teaching her. She said she wanted to learn more things and make more pastry. Her mom said she would love to help her. They all smiled and had a playful time.
+Sam and Max were brothers. They liked to play with their toys and eat yummy food. One day, Mom made steak for dinner. It smelled good and looked brown and juicy.
+
+Sam and Max both wanted the biggest steak on the plate. They ran to the table and grabbed the same steak. They pulled and pulled, but neither of them let go.
+
+"Mine!" Sam shouted.
+
+"No, mine!" Max shouted.
+
+They were so busy fighting that they did not see the dog. The dog was hungry and sneaky. He jumped on the table and snatched the steak from their hands. He ran away with the steak in his mouth.
+
+Sam and Max were shocked and sad. They looked at each other and realized they had been foolish. They had lost their steak because of their greed.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam," Max said.
+
+"I'm sorry, too, Max," Sam said.
+
+They hugged and forgave each other. Mom saw them and smiled. She had another steak for them. She cut it in half and gave each of them a piece.
+
+"Here you go, boys. Share and enjoy," Mom said.
+
+Sam and Max thanked Mom and ate their steak. They learned their lesson and decided to be more kind and fair. They also watched out for the dog, who was licking his lips.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They like to play with their toys. But sometimes they fight over them. Tom wants to play with Anna's doll. Anna wants to play with Tom's car. They do not want to share.
+
+One day, Mom says, "I have a surprise for you. Come with me." Tom and Anna follow Mom to the car. They are curious. Where are they going? What is the surprise?
+
+Mom drives them to the park. There are many children there. They have balloons and cake. Mom says, "This is your surprise. It is your birthday party. Happy birthday, Tom and Anna!"
+
+Tom and Anna are happy. They see their friends. They run to hug them. They play games and eat cake. They forget about their toys.
+
+Mom gives them a big box. She says, "This is your present. Open it together." Tom and Anna open the box. Inside, there is a big teddy bear. It has a blue bow for Tom and a pink bow for Anna. It is soft and cuddly.
+
+Tom and Anna love the teddy bear. They hug it and thank Mom. They say, "This is the best surprise ever. We are sorry we were selfish. We will share our toys from now on."
+
+Mom smiles and says, "I am proud of you. You are good twins. You are not selfish. You are kind and generous. I love you very much." She hugs them and kisses them. Tom and Anna hug her back. They are not worried anymore. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big brown dog. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail.
+
+"Can we pet the dog?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, he looks nice," Ben said.
+
+They went to the dog and stroked his fur. The dog licked their faces and made them laugh. They had fun with the dog.
+
+But then, a mean boy came. He had a stick in his hand. He wanted to hit the dog.
+
+"Go away, this is my dog!" he shouted.
+
+"No, it's not! He's a stray dog. He belongs to everyone!" Lily said.
+
+The mean boy swung his stick at the dog. The dog barked and dodged. Lily and Ben were scared.
+
+"Stop it! You're hurting the dog!" Ben cried.
+
+The mean boy did not listen. He tried to hit the dog again. But this time, the dog bit his stick and broke it in half. The mean boy dropped the stick and ran away. He was crying.
+
+Lily and Ben hugged the dog. They were happy that he was safe. They gave him some water and a biscuit. The dog wagged his tail and licked their faces again.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They learned that being kind to animals is good. And being mean to animals is bad. They also learned that the dog was brave and smart. He could protect himself and his friends. They decided to name him Inch, because he was only an inch away from the mean boy's stick. They hoped to see Inch again in the park. They loved him very much.
+Tom and Sue were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pile of junk near the trash can. It had old boxes, cans, bottles, and papers. Tom and Sue thought it looked fun to make things with the junk.
+
+"Look, I made a robot with this can and this box!" Tom said, showing Sue his creation.
+
+"That's cool, but I made a castle with these bottles and papers!" Sue said, pointing to her creation.
+
+They played with their junk for a while, but then they got thirsty. They looked for some water, but they could not find any. The water fountain was broken, and the pond was dry. They felt very hot and tired.
+
+"Maybe we should go home and get some water," Tom said.
+
+"But what about our junk? We worked hard to make them," Sue said.
+
+They did not want to leave their junk, but they also did not want to be thirsty. They did not know what to do.
+
+Then, they saw a man walking by with a big bag. He was picking up the junk and putting it in his bag. He was a cleaner who worked in the park.
+
+"Hey, that's our junk!" Tom shouted.
+

+Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They named him Frosty.
+
+"Hello, Frosty!" Lily said. "Do you like the snow?"
+
+"Yes, I do!" Frosty said. "It is cold and white and fun. Thank you for making me!"
+
+Lily and Ben were surprised. They did not know that Frosty could talk. They were happy to have a new friend.
+
+"Can you play with us, Frosty?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course!" Frosty said. "But we have to be careful. If the sun comes out, I will melt. I need to stay in the snow."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They did not want Frosty to melt. They played with him for a long time. They threw snowballs, made snow angels, and slid down a hill.
+
+But then, they saw a bright light in the sky. It was the sun. It was coming out of the clouds. It was getting warmer.
+
+"Oh no!" Frosty said. "The sun is here. I have to freeze. I have to stay in the snow."
+
+Lily and Ben were sad. They did not want to leave Frosty. They hugged him and said goodbye.
+
+"Will we see you again, Frosty?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe," Frosty said. "If it snows again, I will come back. But until then, I have to freeze. I have to stay in the snow."
+
+Lily and Ben ran back to their house. They looked back at Frosty. He was still smiling. He was still in the snow. He was still their friend. He was the best snowman in the nation. He was cold and white and dry. He was Frosty.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They were very playful and happy.
+
+But then Tom fell down and hurt his knee. It was bleeding and it hurt a lot. He cried and Lily ran to him.
+
+"Don't cry, Tom. I will help you," Lily said. She took out a bandage from her backpack and wrapped it around Tom's knee. "There, now it will get better."
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are very kind," Tom said. He smiled and hugged Lily.
+
+Lily smiled back and said, "You're welcome, Tom. You are my best friend. You remind me of my big brother. He always helps me when I get hurt."
+
+"Really? I don't have a big brother. I wish I had one like you," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe we can pretend we are brother and sister. Then we can always play and help each other," Lily said.
+
+"I like that idea. Let's do that," Tom said.
+
+They held hands and walked to the bench where their moms were waiting. They told them about their pretend game and their moms smiled and hugged them. They were proud of their playful and caring children.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big hill with white snow on it. They want to have fun on the hill.
+
+"Let's go to the hill and slide down!" Tom says.
+
+"OK, but we need something to slide on," Lily says.
+
+They look around and find a big cardboard box. They take the box to the hill and put it under them. They are ready to slide.
+
+"Here we go!" Tom says.
+
+"Whee!" Lily says.
+
+They slide down the hill very fast. They feel the wind and the snow on their faces. They laugh and scream. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But they do not see the big tree at the bottom of the hill. The tree is very hard and brown. The box is not strong enough to stop them. They crash into the tree and the box breaks.
+
+"Ouch!" Tom says.
+
+"Ow!" Lily says.
+
+They are hurt and sad. They have tears in their eyes. They have bumps on their heads.
+
+"Are you OK?" Tom asks.
+
+"I think so," Lily says.
+
+They hug each other and say sorry. They walk back to the park and find their moms. Their moms are worried and angry.
+
+"What happened to you?" Tom's mom asks.
+
+"We had an accident on the hill," Tom says.
+
+"We were sliding on a box and hit a tree," Lily says.
+
+"That was very dangerous and silly," Lily's mom says.
+
+"You could have been hurt very badly," Tom's mom says.
+
+They scold them and take them home. They give them ice and kisses. They tell them to be more careful next time.
+
+Tom and Lily are sorry and promise to be more careful. They are still friends. They still like to play in the park. But they do not slide on the hill anymore. They have learned their lesson.
+Tom and Lily liked to play with their jeep. It was big and red and had four wheels. They took turns to drive it in the yard. One day, they saw a man with a hat and a bag. He looked at their jeep and smiled.
+
+"Hello, kids. What a nice jeep you have. Can I see it?" he asked.
+
+Tom and Lily did not know the man. They felt confused. They looked at each other. Lily shook her head. She did not want to talk to the man.
+
+"No, thank you. This is our jeep. We are playing with it," Tom said.
+
+The man frowned. He did not like Tom's answer. He walked closer to them. He reached for the jeep.
+
+"Come on, don't be rude. I just want to look at it. Maybe I can give you something for it. How about some candy?" he said.
+
+Tom and Lily did not like candy. They liked their jeep more. They held on to it. They tried to pull it away from the man. The man was stronger. He pulled harder. He took the jeep from them. He laughed.
+
+"Ha ha, too bad, kids. This is my jeep now. You can have this bag instead. Bye bye!" he said.
+
+He ran away with the jeep. He left the bag on the ground. Tom and Lily cried. They opened the bag. It was empty. They had no jeep and no candy. They felt sad and angry. They wished they had not talked to the man. They wished they had run away. They wished they had told their mom. They learned a hard lesson. They did not know who to trust.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. But today, they have a problem. They both want to play with the same toy car. It is gray and shiny and fast.
+
+"Give me the car, Anna!" Ben says. "It is mine!"
+
+"No, it is mine!" Anna says. "I choose it first!"
+
+They pull and tug on the car. They are angry and loud. Mom hears them and comes to their room.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom asks. "Why are you fighting?"
+
+"Anna took my car!" Ben says.
+
+"Ben took my car!" Anna says.
+
+Mom looks at the car. She sees a sticker on it. It has their names on it. It says: "Anna and Ben's car. Share and be kind."
+
+"Look, children," Mom says. "This car is for both of you. You have to share it and be kind to each other. Fighting is not nice. It can hurt you and the car."
+
+Anna and Ben feel sorry. They let go of the car. They say sorry to each other.
+
+"Can we play with the car together, Mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"Of course, you can," Mom says. "But first, you have to choose a safe place to play. The car is not for the bed or the table. It can fall and break. The car is for the floor or the rug. There you can have fun and be safe."
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They choose the rug. They take the car to the rug. They play with the car together. They make vroom-vroom sounds. They smile and laugh. Mom smiles too. She is happy to see them share and be kind.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a big doll that she loved very much. Ben had a small car that he liked to zoom around. They were having fun until Ben saw Sara's doll and wanted to play with it.
+

+
+"No, it's mine. You have your car," Sara said.
+
+"Please, just for a little bit. I'll give it back," Ben said.
+
+"No, go away. You're naughty," Sara said.
+
+Ben was angry. He grabbed Sara's doll and ran away. Sara cried and chased him. She wanted her doll back.
+
+"Give me my doll! Give me my doll!" Sara shouted.
+
+"No, it's mine now. You have to pay me a price," Ben said.
+
+"What price?" Sara asked.
+
+"Two cookies and a juice," Ben said.
+
+"That's too much. You're mean," Sara said.
+
+They argued and fought over the doll. They made a lot of noise and mess. Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong.
+
+"What's going on here? Why are you fighting?" Mom asked.
+
+"Ben took my doll and won't give it back. He wants a price," Sara said.
+
+"Ben, is that true? Did you take Sara's doll?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, but she wouldn't lend it to me. She was selfish," Ben said.
+
+Mom was not happy. She took the doll from Ben and gave it to Sara. She scolded Ben for being naughty and greedy. She told him to say sorry to Sara and share his toys.
+
+"Sorry, Sara. I was wrong. Can I play with your doll?" Ben said.
+
+Sara was still sad, but she forgave Ben. She decided to lend him her doll for a little bit. She also let him have a cookie and a juice.
+

+"OK!" Sam says.
+
+They lift the lid and see a lot of shiny things. There are rings, necklaces, bracelets and coins. They are very happy and start to try them on.

+
+"I don't know, I don't know!" Tim says. He is scared and sad. He wants his arm back.
+
+They look around, but they do not see his arm. They do not know what to do. They cry and hug each other.
+
+"Let's go home, Tim. Maybe your mom can help you." Sam says.
+
+"OK, let's go." Tim says.
+
+They leave the red box and the shiny things behind. They run to Tim's house and tell his mom what happened. She is shocked and worried. She calls the doctor and the police. They come and ask them many questions. They go to the park and look for the red box and the shiny things. But they are gone. They have vanished too. No one knows where they are or who took them. No one knows how to get Tim's arm back. Tim and Sam are very sad. They wish they never opened the red box. They wish they never tried the ring. They wish they could play with cars and blocks again.

+At the park, they find a big hill. They want to ride down the hill. Mom and Dad say, "Be careful. The hill is steep and fast. Use your brakes."

+They say, "This is the best day ever. We love to ride our bikes. We love the wrap. We love you, Mom and Dad."
+Lily was playing with her dolls when she heard a loud noise. She ran to the kitchen and saw her uncle on the floor. He had slipped on some water and hit his head. He was not moving and his face was white.
+
+Lily felt scared and helpless. She did not know what to do. She remembered that her mom had told her to call 911 if there was an emergency. She ran to the phone and pressed the numbers. She told the person on the other line that her uncle was hurt and needed help.
+
+Soon, she heard sirens and saw a big red truck and a white car outside. Some people in uniforms came in and looked at her uncle. They put a bandage on his head and a mask on his face. They lifted him on a stretcher and took him to the white car.
+
+Lily followed them and saw her mom waiting by the car. She hugged her mom and cried. Her mom told her that she was very brave and smart. She said that her uncle would be okay and that they would go to the hospital to see him.

+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and eat snacks. One day, they find a big jar of honey in the kitchen. They want to taste it, but they are too small to reach it.
+
+"Let's get a spoon and a chair," Ben says. "Then we can have some honey."
+
+"Good idea," Lily says. They get a spoon from the drawer and a chair from the table. They put the chair near the jar and climb on it. Ben holds the spoon and tries to open the jar.
+
+But the jar is too tight. Ben pushes and pulls, but he cannot open it. He leans on the jar with all his weight, but it does not move.
+
+"Help me, Lily," he says. "Push with me."
+
+Lily pushes with him, but the jar still does not open. They lean harder and harder, but nothing happens.
+
+Suddenly, the chair wobbles and falls over. Ben and Lily fall with it. The jar falls too, and breaks on the floor. Honey spills everywhere. Ben and Lily are sticky and scared.
+
+"Uh-oh," they say together.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the kitchen. She sees the mess and the broken jar. She is very angry.
+
+"What did you do?" she asks. "This is very bad. You could have hurt yourselves. And you wasted the honey. You are in big trouble."
+
+Ben and Lily feel sorry. They did not mean to be bad. They just wanted some honey.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," they say. "We were hungry. We wanted to taste the honey."
+
+Mom sighs. She is still angry, but she loves them. She knows they are only little.
+
+"Next time, ask me first," she says. "I will give you some honey if you are good. Now, let's clean up this mess. And then you need a bath."
+
+Ben and Lily nod. They help Mom clean up the honey and the glass. They throw away the spoon. They do not want to see it again. They learn their lesson. They do not lean on jars anymore.

+
+"Can we go and say hello to the whale?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, we have to stay here. The whale is too far and too big. We are too small and the water is too deep. It is not safe," Mia said.
+
+"But the whale looks nice. Maybe he wants to play with us," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe, but we can play with him from here. Look, he is jumping again. Let's wave to him and make noise too," Mia said.
+
+They waved their arms and shouted "Hello, whale! Hello, whale!" The whale heard them and made a loud sound. He set his tail on the water and made a big splash. Tom and Mia laughed and clapped.
+
+They played with the whale for a while. Then the whale swam away. Tom and Mia said goodbye to him.
+
+"That was fun," Tom said.
+
+"Yes, it was. The whale was a regular friend," Mia said.
+
+They went back to their sand castles and shells. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were having lunch with Mom and Dad. They had soup and bread and cheese. Lily liked soup, but Ben did not. He made a face and pushed his bowl away.
+
+"Ben, you have to eat your soup. It is good for you," Mom said.
+
+"No, I don't like soup. It is yucky and hot," Ben said.
+
+"Ben, don't be rude. Soup is not yucky. And you can blow on it to make it cool," Dad said.
+
+"No, no, no. I want cookies. Cookies are yummy and sweet," Ben said.
+
+"Ben, you can't have cookies until you finish your soup. Cookies are a treat, not a meal. If you eat too many cookies, you will spoil your appetite and your teeth," Mom said.
+
+"I don't care. I want cookies now!" Ben shouted. He reached for the cookie jar on the table, but he knocked over his bowl of soup. The soup spilled all over the table and the floor and the napkins. The napkins were white, but now they were gray and wet.
+
+"Ben, look what you did! You made a big mess. You have to clean it up," Mom said.
+
+"Sorry, Mom. I didn't mean to," Ben said. He felt bad and sad. He got a new napkin and tried to wipe the soup, but it was too much.
+
+"Here, let me help you," Lily said. She got another napkin and helped Ben clean the table and the floor. She was a good sister.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are very kind," Mom said.
+
+"You're welcome, Mom. I like to help," Lily said.
+
+"Ben, you should say thank you to Lily too. She helped you even though you were naughty," Dad said.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. I'm sorry I was naughty," Ben said.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. But next time, please eat your soup," Lily said.
+
+"Okay, Lily. I will try. Maybe soup is not so bad," Ben said.
+
+"Good. Now, how about we all have one cookie each as a reward for cleaning up? And then we can have a nap. You must be tired after all this fuss," Mom said.
+
+"Yay, cookies and nap! That sounds good," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They all had a cookie and a glass of milk. Then they went to their beds and had a nap. They dreamed of soup and cookies and napkins. They were happy.
+Sam and Mia were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a new girl sitting on a bench. She had long hair and a pretty dress. Sam and Mia wanted to say hello, but they were shy.
+
+"Who is she?" Sam asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe she is new here," Mia said.
+
+They looked at the girl, who looked sad and lonely. Sam and Mia felt sorry for her.
+
+"Let's go and talk to her," Sam said.
+
+"OK, but be nice. She looks delicate," Mia said.
+
+They walked to the bench and smiled at the girl.
+
+"Hi, we are Sam and Mia. What is your name?" Sam said.
+
+The girl looked up and smiled back.
+
+"Hi, I am Lily. I just moved here with my dad and my new mom," she said.
+
+"Your new mom? Where is your old mom?" Mia asked.
+
+Lily's smile faded.
+
+"My old mom is in heaven. She was sick and she died. My dad married my new mom, but I don't like her. She is mean and she yells at me. She says I am not her daughter and I have to do what she says," Lily said.
+
+Sam and Mia felt sad and angry.
+
+"That is not nice. She is not a good mom. You are a good girl and you deserve a good mom," Sam said.
+
+"Yeah, a mom should love you and take care of you. She should be your friend and your wife to your dad," Mia said.
+
+Lily nodded.
+
+"I wish I had a mom like that. But I don't. I only have my dad, and he is always busy and tired. He says he loves me, but he doesn't have time for me. He says I have to be nice to my new mom, but she is not nice to me," Lily said.
+
+Sam and Mia hugged Lily.
+
+"We are sorry, Lily. That is not fair. You don't have to be nice to someone who is mean to you. You have to stand up for yourself and tell your dad how you feel. Maybe he doesn't know how bad she is. Maybe he can talk to her and make her change. Or maybe he can find you a better mom. A mom who will love you and welcome you as her daughter," Sam said.
+
+"Or maybe you can be our sister. We can share our mom. She is very nice and she loves us. She will love you too. She will welcome you to our family. You can come and play with us and stay with us. We will be happy together," Mia said.
+
+Lily smiled and wiped her tears.
+
+"Really? You would do that for me? You are very kind and sweet. You are the best friends I ever had. Thank you, Sam and Mia. You make me feel better. You make me feel welcome," Lily said.
+
+They hugged again and laughed.
+
+"Come on, let's go and play. We have a lot of fun things to do. We can swing and slide and run and jump. We can be happy together," Sam said.
+
+"OK, let's go. But first, can I call you brother and sister?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. You are our sister now. And we are your brother and sister. We are a family," Mia said.
+
+They held hands and ran to the playground. They played and laughed and had fun. They were happy together.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be kind and friendly to others, especially those who are lonely and sad. You can make a difference in their lives and make them feel welcome. You can also stand up for yourself and your friends when someone is mean and unfair. You can also share your love and your family with those who need it. You can be happy together.
+Tom and Amy are friends. They like to play with blocks and draw with crayons. One day, they go to the park with their moms. There is a big slide in the park. Tom and Amy want to go on the slide.
+
+They run to the slide, but there is a long line of kids. Tom and Amy have to wait. They are not happy. They want to go on the slide now. They look at the line. They see a gap between two kids. They think they can go in the gap.
+
+They run to the gap and try to go in. But the kids in the line are upset. They say, "No, you can't do that! You have to wait your turn! Go to the back of the line!" They push Tom and Amy away. Tom and Amy fall on the ground. They hurt their knees and elbows. They cry.
+
+Their moms hear them cry and come to see what is wrong. They see Tom and Amy on the ground and the kids in the line. They are angry. They say, "Why did you touch the line? Why did you not wait your turn? That is not nice! That is rude! You have to say sorry to the kids in the line!"
+
+Tom and Amy are scared. They do not want to say sorry. They do not think they did anything wrong. They just wanted to go on the slide. They are upset. They do not want to play with the kids in the line. They do not want to play in the park. They want to go home.
+Lily was very happy. She had a new flute. It was shiny and pink. She liked to play it and make music. She wanted to show it to her friend Ben.
+
+She went to his house and knocked on the door. Ben opened it and smiled. "Hi, Lily! What do you have?" he asked.
+
+"I have a flute! It is fancy and pretty. Do you want to see?" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, please! Can I try it?" Ben said.
+
+Lily nodded and gave him the flute. Ben put it to his mouth and blew. But no sound came out. He blew harder and harder. Still no sound.
+
+Lily started to panic. "What did you do? Why is it not working? Give it back!" she cried.
+
+Ben was scared. He did not know what was wrong. He tried to pull the flute away from his mouth. But it was stuck. He could not take it off.
+
+Lily and Ben both screamed. They did not know what to do.
+
+Then Ben's mom came. She heard the noise and ran to them. She saw the flute on Ben's mouth. She was surprised.
+
+"Don't worry, kids. It's okay. The flute is just too big for Ben. It is not broken. We just need some butter," she said.
+
+She went to the kitchen and got some butter. She put some on Ben's lips and the flute. She gently twisted the flute and pulled it off. Ben was free.
+
+Lily and Ben sighed with relief. They hugged each other.
+
+"Thank you, mom. I'm sorry, Lily. I did not mean to break your flute," Ben said.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. I'm glad you are okay. And my flute is okay too. See? It still makes music," Lily said.
+
+She played a happy tune on her flute. Ben clapped his hands. They smiled and laughed. They were friends again.
+Lily and Tom were very happy. They had a new car. Dad said they could go to the beach. Lily and Tom liked the beach. They liked the sand and the water and the shells.
+
+They got in the new car. Dad drove and Mom sang. Lily and Tom looked out the window. They saw trees and houses and cows. They asked, "Are we there yet?" Dad said, "Soon, soon."
+
+They got to the beach. It was sunny and warm. Lily and Tom ran to the sand. They saw a big bucket and a small bucket. They had to decide. Who would get the big bucket and who would get the small bucket?
+
+Lily said, "I want the big bucket. I am older." Tom said, "No, I want the big bucket. I am stronger." They both pulled the big bucket. They both wanted it.
+
+Then they heard a splash. They looked at the water. They saw a big wave. The big wave came to the sand. The big wave took the big bucket and the small bucket. Lily and Tom were sad. They had no buckets.
+
+Mom and Dad came to Lily and Tom. They said, "Don't be sad. We have a surprise for you." They gave Lily and Tom two new buckets. One was pink and one was blue. Lily and Tom were happy. They said, "Thank you, thank you." They played with the new buckets. They made a big castle and a small castle. They had fun at the beach.
+Sara and Tom like to play with their toys. They have many toys in their cabinet. They have cars, dolls, blocks, and puzzles. Sara likes puzzles. She likes to match the pieces and make pictures. Tom likes cars. He likes to zoom them on the floor and make noises.
+
+One day, Sara and Tom want to play together. Sara takes out a puzzle and asks Tom, "Do you want to help me match the pieces?" Tom says, "No, thank you. I want to play with my cars." Sara says, "OK, you play with your cars and I play with my puzzle."
+
+Sara and Tom play for a while. Sara matches the pieces and makes a picture of a farm. She sees cows, pigs, chickens, and a tractor. She is happy. Tom zooms his cars and makes noises. He pretends he is a driver. He is happy too.
+
+But then, Tom gets bored. He wants to try something new. He sees Sara's puzzle and thinks, "Maybe I can match the pieces too." He goes to Sara and says, "Can I play with your puzzle?" Sara says, "Sure, you can help me. There are still some pieces left."
+
+Sara and Tom start to match the pieces together. They find the pieces that fit and make the picture bigger. They see a barn, a fence, a dog, and a farmer. They are both happy. They smile and say, "We did it! We matched the pieces and made a picture of a farm. It looks fine!" They high-five and hug. They put the puzzle back in the cabinet and take out another one. They say, "Let's play again!"
+Lily and Ben liked to play pretend. They had a big box that they used as a ship. They put on hats and scarves and said they were pirates. They sailed on the sea and looked for treasure.
+
+One day, they saw a big bird in the sky. It was black and white and had a long beak. It was a seagull. Lily and Ben wanted to catch it. They grabbed a rope and threw it at the bird. But the bird was too fast. It dodged the rope and flew higher.
+
+"Come back, bird!" Lily shouted. "We want to be your friends!"
+
+The bird looked down at them and made a loud noise. It sounded like "caw, caw, caw". It was laughing at them. It did not want to be their friend. It wanted to be free.
+
+"Let's follow it!" Ben said. "Maybe it will lead us to a secret island!"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They steered their box-ship towards the bird. They hoped to find a new adventure. They did not see the big rock in front of them. They crashed into it and their box-ship broke. They fell into the water and got wet.
+
+"Ouch!" Lily said. "That hurt!"
+
+"Sorry!" Ben said. "I did not see the rock!"
+
+They looked around. They were not on the sea anymore. They were on the grass. Their box-ship was empty and torn. The bird was gone. They had lost their game.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad. They had no ship, no bird, and no treasure. They had nothing to play with. They wanted to go home.
+
+But then they heard a voice. It was their mom. She had a big smile and a big basket. She had made them a picnic. She had sandwiches, cookies, and juice. She had a blanket and a book. She had a surprise for them.
+
+"Hi, pirates!" she said. "Are you ready for some fun?"
+
+Lily and Ben perked up. They ran to their mom and hugged her. They forgot about their broken ship and their lost bird. They had something better. They had their mom.
+
+They ate their picnic and listened to their mom read them a story. It was about a brave pirate who soared in the sky with a seagull. They imagined they were in the story. They felt happy. They had a new game.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toys. But they did not like to share their toys with each other. They always fought and grabbed and said "mine, mine, mine!"
+
+One day, their mom said, "Boys, I have to go to the store. You have to stay home and be good. I will be back soon." She gave them a hug and a kiss and left.
+
+Tim and Sam looked at each other and smiled. They thought they could do whatever they wanted. They ran to their room and took out all their toys. They dumped them on the floor and started to play.
+
+But soon, they started to fight again. Tim wanted the red car and Sam wanted the blue truck. They pulled and pushed and yelled. They did not care about the other toys. They only wanted the ones they did not have.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was their mom. She came back from the store. She saw the mess in their room and the angry faces of her sons. She was very sad and mad.
+
+"Boys, what have you done?" she asked. "Why are you fighting over toys? Don't you know that sharing is caring? Don't you know that playing together is more fun than playing alone?"
+
+Tim and Sam looked down. They felt bad. They knew their mom was right. They had been selfish and mean. They had not served each other with love. They had not used their will to be kind. They had made their room and their hearts gloomy.
+
+They said sorry to their mom and to each other. They hugged and said, "We love you, mom. We love you, brother." They picked up their toys and put them away. They decided to share and take turns. They played happily and peacefully.
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "That's my boys. I'm proud of you. You have learned a valuable lesson. Serving others with love makes you happy. Using your will to be kind makes you strong. Sharing your toys makes you rich. And playing together makes you bright."
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. Sara has a doll and Ben has a car. They pretend the doll is a princess and the car is a dragon.
+
+One day, Sara says, "Let's trade toys. I want to play with the car." Ben says, "No, I like the car. It is powerful and fast. You can keep the doll." Sara is sad. She wants to try the car.
+
+She says, "Please, Ben, let me have the car for a little while. I will give it back to you soon. The doll is pretty and kind. You can pretend she is your friend." Ben thinks for a moment. He likes Sara. He says, "Okay, Sara, we can trade toys. But only for a little while. Then we have to trade back."
+
+Sara is happy. She takes the car and makes it zoom and roar. She pretends it is a dragon that can fly and breathe fire. Ben takes the doll and hugs it. He pretends it is a princess that can sing and dance. They have fun with their new toys.
+
+But after a while, Ben wants his car back. He says, "Sara, it is time to trade back. I miss my car. It is my favorite toy." Sara says, "No, Ben, I want to keep the car. It is fun and powerful. You can keep the doll. She is your friend." Ben is angry. He says, "No, Sara, that is not fair. We agreed to trade for a little while. Give me back my car. It is mine." Sara says, "No, Ben, it is mine now. I like it more than you."
+
+They start to fight over the car. They pull and tug and shout. They are not friends anymore. They are enemies. They are sad and mad.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. It was cold, so they wore coats and hats and gloves. Lily had a red coat and Tom had a blue coat.
+
+They saw a big tree with many leaves. The leaves were yellow and brown and orange. They looked pretty. Lily and Tom wanted to play with the leaves. They ran to the tree and picked up some leaves. They threw them in the air and watched them fall. They laughed and clapped.
+
+"Let's make a pile of leaves!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Tom said.
+
+They worked together and gathered many leaves. They made a big pile under the tree. It was taller than them. They were proud of their pile.
+
+"Let's jump in the pile!" Tom said.
+
+"OK!" Lily said.
+
+They took off their coats and hats and gloves. They put them on the grass. They ran to the pile and jumped in. They made a lot of noise. They shouted and giggled and squealed. They had fun.
+
+But then, a big wind came. It blew very hard. It blew the leaves away. It blew their coats and hats and gloves away. It spread them all over the park. Lily and Tom were sad. They lost their pile and their clothes.
+
+They got out of the leaves and looked around. They saw their coats and hats and gloves flying in the air. They chased them. They tried to catch them. But they were too fast. They were too far.
+
+They felt cold. They felt sad. They cried.
+
+A lady saw them. She was walking her dog. She heard their cries. She came to them. She asked them what was wrong.
+
+"We lost our pile and our clothes!" Lily said.
+
+"The wind blew them away!" Tom said.
+
+The lady felt sorry for them. She took off her scarf and wrapped it around them. She said, "Don't worry, I'll help you find your clothes. Come with me."
+
+She held their hands and walked with them. She looked for their clothes. She found Lily's red coat on a bench. She found Tom's blue coat on a fence. She found their hats and gloves on the ground. She gave them back their clothes. They put them on. They felt warm. They felt happy.
+
+They thanked the lady. They hugged her. They said, "You are very nice. You are our friend."
+
+The lady smiled. She said, "You are very welcome. You are very sweet. I'm glad I could help you."
+
+They waved goodbye to the lady. They waved goodbye to her dog. They went back to their mom. They told her what happened. She hugged them. She said, "I'm glad you are OK. You had an adventure."
+
+They nodded. They said, "Yes, we did. We played with the leaves. We made a pile. We jumped in. We lost our clothes. We met a lady. She helped us. She was our friend."
+
+They smiled. They said, "We had fun."
+Lily liked to read books about insects. She wanted to learn all their names and what they could do. She had a big book with many pictures of insects. She read it every day.
+
+One day, she saw a new insect in the garden. It was small and green and had six legs. It looked like a leaf. Lily was curious. She ran to get her book and find out what it was.
+
+She opened the book and looked for the green insect. She found it on a page that said "camouflage". She read the word slowly. "Cam-o-flage", she said. "That means the insect can hide by looking like something else. How clever!"
+
+She looked up and saw the insect again. It was on a branch near a flower. She wanted to touch it and see how it felt. She walked slowly and quietly towards it. She reached out her hand.
+
+But the insect was not there. It had flown away. Lily was surprised and sad. She had missed her chance to see the insect up close. She looked around, but she could not find it.
+
+She heard a voice behind her. It was her mom. "What are you doing, Lily?" she asked.
+
+"I was trying to see a camouflage insect, mom. But it flew away. It was so fast and smart. I wanted to say hello", Lily said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. Maybe you will see it again another day. You are very good at reading and learning about insects. You are a successful reader", mom said.
+
+She hugged Lily and gave her a kiss. "Come on, let's go inside and have some juice. You can tell me more about your book and the insects you like", mom said.
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She still wished she could see the camouflage insect again. But she was happy to have her book and her mom. She loved to read and learn. She was a successful reader.
+Lily liked to play with her fancy dolls. She had many dolls with pretty dresses and long hair. She liked to comb their hair and make them talk to each other. She pretended they were her friends.
+
+One day, Lily found a pair of scissors in her mom's drawer. She had an idea. She wanted to give her dolls a new look. She took the scissors and went to her room. She started to cut the hair of her dolls. She cut it short and long, straight and curly, and made bangs and ponytails. She thought they looked very nice.
+
+But her mom did not think so. She heard the snip-snip sound of the scissors and went to see what Lily was doing. She saw the dolls with their hair all messed up. She was very angry. She said to Lily, "What have you done? You have ruined your dolls! You should not play with scissors. They are dangerous. You could hurt yourself or someone else. And you should not disturb your mom's things. They are not for you. You are a naughty girl!"
+
+Lily felt very sad. She did not mean to make her mom angry. She just wanted to have fun. She said to her mom, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to make my dolls look fancy. I did not know scissors were bad. I did not want to disturb your things. I love you, mom. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Her mom saw that Lily was sorry. She hugged her and said, "I love you too, Lily. But you have to be careful and listen to me. Scissors are not toys. They are for grown-ups. And you have to respect your mom's things. They are not for playing. And you have to love your dolls. They are your friends. You should not cut their hair. They are beautiful the way they are."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. I understand. I will not play with scissors again. And I will not disturb your things again. And I will love my dolls. They are my friends. Can we fix their hair, mom?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Yes, we can try. But some of them may have to wear hats or ribbons. Come on, let's go to the bathroom and see what we can do." She took Lily's hand and they went to the bathroom. They washed the dolls' hair and tried to make them look fancy again. Lily and her mom had fun together. They did not notice that the scissors were still on the floor.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with cars and dolls. One day, they go to the park with their moms. There is a big slide and a swing and a sandbox.
+
+Lily and Ben run to the slide. They take turns to go down. Lily goes first. She slides fast and laughs. Ben goes next. He slides slow and smiles. They have fun.
+
+Then they see a boy with a ball. He is alone. He kicks the ball hard. The ball goes far. He runs to get it. Lily and Ben watch him.
+
+"Can we play with him?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"Maybe," Ben says. "Let's ask him."
+
+They go to the boy. He has the ball in his hands. He looks at them.
+
+"Hi," Lily says. "We are Lily and Ben. What is your name?"
+
+"I am Sam," the boy says.
+
+"Do you want to play with us?" Ben asks.
+
+"OK," Sam says. "What do you want to play?"
+
+"How about pass?" Lily says. "We can pass the ball to each other."
+
+"Good idea," Ben says. "I like pass."

+
+"Oh no," Lily says. "I'm sorry. I kicked too hard."
+
+"It's OK," Ben says. "It was an accident."
+
+"Maybe we can get another ball," Sam says.
+
+They look around. They see a girl with a pink ball. She is playing with her dad. She bounces the ball and catches it. She looks happy.
+
+"Can we ask her for her ball?" Lily says.
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "She might not want to share."
+
+"Let's try," Sam says. "Maybe she will be nice."
+
+They go to the girl. She sees them. She stops bouncing the ball. She holds it in her hands. She looks at them.
+
+"Hi," Sam says. "We are Sam, Lily and Ben. What is your name?"
+
+"I am Mia," the girl says.
+
+"Can we play with you?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure," Mia says. "What do you want to play?"
+
+"We were playing pass, but we lost our ball," Ben says. "Can we use your ball?"
+
+"OK," Mia says. "But be careful. It's my favorite ball."
+
+"Thank you," Sam says. "We will be careful."

+But then, Ben bounces the ball too high. The ball goes over the fence. It lands in the street. They can't get it.
+
+"Oh no," Ben says. "I'm sorry. I bounced too high."
+
+"It's OK," Mia says. "It was an accident."
+
+"Maybe we can get another ball," Lily says.
+
+They look around. They see a dog with a yellow ball. He is playing with his owner. He chases the ball and brings it back. He looks happy.
+
+"Can we ask him for his ball?" Ben says.
+
+"I don't know," Mia says. "He might not want to share."
+
+"Let's try," Lily says. "Maybe he will be nice."
+
+They go to the dog. He sees them. He stops chasing the ball. He holds it in his mouth. He looks at them.
+
+"Hi," Lily says. "We are Lily, Ben, Sam and Mia. What is your name?"
+
+The dog barks. He wags his tail. He drops the ball.
+
+"Can we play with you?" Sam asks.
+
+The dog barks again. He nudges the ball with his nose.
+
+"OK," Mia says. "But be careful. It's his favorite ball."
+
+"Thank you," Ben says. "We will be careful."
+
+They start to play again. They pass the ball to each other. They take turns. They are careful not to throw too far. They have fun.
+
+The dog passes the ball to Mia. Mia passes the ball to Ben. Ben passes the ball to Lily. Lily passes the ball to Sam. Sam passes the ball to the dog
+Lila was a playful girl who liked to run, jump and sing. She had a big brother, Ben, who was older and smarter. He liked to read, write and draw. Sometimes, Lila wanted to do what Ben did, but she found it hard and got bored.
+
+One day, Lila saw Ben working on a puzzle. It had many pieces and colors. Lila asked, "Can I help you, Ben?"
+
+Ben looked at Lila and smiled. He said, "Sure, Lila. You can help me. But you have to be patient and careful. This puzzle is not easy. It takes time and wisdom to solve it."
+
+Lila nodded and sat next to Ben. She picked up a piece and tried to fit it somewhere. But it did not match. She tried another piece, and another, and another. But none of them worked. She felt frustrated and sad.
+
+Ben saw Lila's face and said, "Don't give up, Lila. You are doing well. You are learning and improving. Every time you try a piece, you are using your eyes and your brain. You are finding out what works and what doesn't. That is how you gain wisdom. Wisdom is knowing things and making good choices."

+Lila listened to Ben and felt better. She said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother. You are helping me and teaching me. I want to be like you. I want to have wisdom."
+
+Ben hugged Lila and said, "You are welcome, Lila. You are a good sister. You are playful and curious. You make me happy. I want to be like you. I want to have fun."
+
+Lila and Ben smiled and continued to work on the puzzle. They enjoyed each other's company and learned from each other. They improved their skills and their wisdom. They were a happy and playful team.
+Lily was a little bunny who liked to hop around the meadow. She saw many flowers and bugs and birds. She liked to play with them and make friends. One day, she saw a big black bird sitting on a branch. It had shiny feathers and a sharp beak. Lily thought it was a fancy bird and wanted to talk to it.
+
+"Hello, fancy bird!" she said, hopping closer. "What is your name?"
+
+The bird looked at her with a cold eye. It was a raven, and it did not like bunnies. It thought they were silly and tasty. It did not answer Lily, but waited for her to come closer.
+
+"I am Lily, and I am a bunny," she said, smiling. "Do you want to play with me? We can hop and sing and have fun!"
+
+The raven did not want to play with Lily. It wanted to eat her. It pretended to be nice and said, "Sure, little bunny. I would love to play with you. Come closer, and I will show you a game."
+
+Lily was happy and hopped closer to the raven. She did not see the raven's claws and teeth. She did not hear the raven's growl. She did not feel the raven's bite. She only saw the raven's shiny feathers and heard the raven's lie. The raven grabbed Lily and flew away with her. Lily was gone, and the raven was full. The meadow was quiet and sad. The flowers and bugs and birds missed Lily. They wished she had not talked to the fancy bird. They wished she had stayed with them. They wished she had hopped away.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They like to read books. They have many books in their room. Some books are big and some books are small. Some books have pictures and some books have only words.
+
+One day, Mom gives them a new book. It is a big book with many words. It is a novel. Mom says, "This is a powerful novel. It has a lot of stories inside. You can read it together, but you have to behave. Do not fight or tear the pages. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Anna nod. They are excited. They want to read the novel. They sit on the bed and open the book. They take turns to read the words. They see the stories in their minds. They see dragons and knights, fairies and witches, pirates and treasures. They forget about everything else.
+
+They read and read until it is dark. Mom comes to their room. She sees them still reading the novel. She smiles. She says, "You are very good children. You behaved very well. You can keep the novel in your room. But now it is time to sleep. Put the book away and close your eyes."
+
+Tom and Anna obey. They put the book on the shelf. They hug each other and say good night. They close their eyes and dream of the powerful novel. They are happy.
+Jill and Tom were playing with their toy cars in the backyard. They liked to make them zoom and crash and honk. Jill had a red car and Tom had a blue car. They pretended they were racing on a big road.
+
+"Look at me, I'm so fast!" Jill said, making her car go forward.
+
+"I can catch you, watch this!" Tom said, making his car go backward. He wanted to bump into Jill's car and make her stop.
+
+But Tom did not see the big rock behind him. His car hit the rock and flipped over. Tom was sad and angry. His car was broken and he could not play anymore.
+
+"Ha ha, you lose!" Jill said, laughing at Tom. She did not care that he was hurt. She was mean and selfish.
+
+Tom wished he could reverse what happened. He wished he could fix his car and make Jill nice. He wished he could be a big boy and not a helpless youth. He wished he could have a better friend.
+
+He started to cry. He felt alone and unhappy.
+
+Then he heard a voice. It was his mom. She came out of the house and saw him crying. She saw his broken car and the rock. She saw Jill laughing.
+
+"What's wrong, Tom?" she asked, hugging him.
+
+"Jill broke my car and she's mean to me!" Tom said, sobbing.
+
+"That's not nice of her. She should say sorry and share her car with you. Do you want me to talk to her?" mom asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom said, nodding.
+
+Mom went to Jill and told her to stop laughing and be kind to Tom. She told her to apologize and let him play with her car. She told her to be a good friend and not a bad one.
+
+Jill did not like what mom said. She did not want to say sorry or share her car. She wanted to keep playing by herself. She was stubborn and rude.
+
+But she knew she had to do what mom said. She knew mom was bigger and stronger and smarter than her. She knew mom could take away her car and send her to her room. She knew mom was right and she was wrong.
+
+She walked to Tom and said, "Sorry, Tom. I didn't mean to break your car. Do you want to play with my car?"
+
+Tom looked at her. He did not trust her. He did not like her. He did not want to play with her.
+
+But he saw that she was trying to be nice. He saw that she was sorry. He saw that she had a car.
+
+He decided to give her a chance. He decided to be a good friend and not a bad one. He decided to play with her car.
+
+He said, "OK, Jill. Thank you for saying sorry. I'll play with your car. But you have to be careful and not crash it."
+
+Jill nodded. She said, "OK, Tom. I'll be careful and not crash it. Let's play together."
+
+They took turns playing with the red car. They made it go forward and backward and sideways. They made it honk and beep and vroom. They had fun and laughed and smiled.
+
+Mom watched them from the house. She was proud and happy. She saw that they learned to reverse their feelings and actions. She saw that they learned to be helpful and friendly. She saw that they learned to grow up and not stay young.
+Tim and Lily were friends who lived in a big city. They liked to play in the park and look at the tall buildings. One day, they saw a man who was very weak and hungry. He was sitting on a bench and holding a cup.
+
+"Can we help him?" Lily asked Tim.
+
+Tim nodded and said, "Yes, we can. We have some bread and water in our backpacks. Let's share with him."
+
+They walked to the man and smiled. They gave him some bread and water and said, "Hello, sir. We want to help you. Please eat and drink."
+
+The man was surprised and grateful. He thanked them and said, "You are very kind and generous. You have made me happy. God bless you."
+
+Tim and Lily felt good. They learned that helping others is a good thing to do. They said goodbye to the man and went back to play. They were happy and proud.
+Lily and Max are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Lily wants to go first. She climbs up the ladder and sits on the slide. She smiles and says, "Whee!"
+
+Max waits for his turn. He is polite and patient. He climbs up the ladder and sits on the slide. He smiles and says, "Whee!"
+
+But then, something happens. Max feels a pain in his toe. He looks down and sees a bee. The bee has stung his toe. Max cries and says, "Ow! Ow! Ow!"
+
+Lily hears Max cry. She slides down and runs to him. She sees the bee and the red toe. She feels sorry for Max. She hugs him and says, "It's okay, Max. I will help you."
+
+Lily takes Max to the bench. She finds a band-aid in her backpack. She puts the band-aid on Max's toe. She kisses his toe and says, "There, there. It will get better soon."
+
+Max stops crying. He looks at Lily and smiles. He says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend."
+
+Lily smiles back. She says, "You are welcome, Max. You are a good friend, too."
+
+They hold hands and walk to the swings. They play and laugh. They forget about the bee and the toe. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big box in the basement. The box had a sign that said "lab". They did not know what "lab" meant, but they were curious.
+
+They opened the box and saw many strange things inside. There were bottles, tubes, wires, and machines. They looked like fun. Lily and Tom decided to play with them. They did not see the other sign that said "danger".
+
+They pushed buttons, turned knobs, and mixed liquids. They made noises, sparks, and bubbles. They laughed and had fun. They did not notice that some of the liquids spilled on the floor and made a mark.
+
+Soon, the mark grew bigger and bigger. It became a puddle, then a pool, then a lake. It was green and slimy and smelly. It moved and made sounds. It was alive. It was angry.
+
+It reached out with its tentacles and grabbed Lily and Tom. They screamed and tried to get away, but it was too strong. It pulled them into the lake and swallowed them. They were gone.
+
+The lab was quiet again. The box was closed. The sign said "danger". The moral of the story is: do not play with unknown things. They can be dangerous.
+Tom and Lily were playing outside with their toy cars. They liked to make them zoom and beep on the grass and the dirt. They pretended they were going on a big adventure to the park.
+
+But then the sky became dark and loud. Rain started to fall and wet their cars and their clothes. Tom and Lily were miserable. They did not like the rain. It made them cold and sad.
+
+"Let's go inside, Lily," Tom said. "We can play with our cars there."
+
+"No, Tom," Lily said. "We can't leave our cars here. They will get ruined by the rain. We have to cover them."
+
+"But how, Lily?" Tom asked. "We don't have anything to cover them with."
+
+Lily looked around and saw a big leaf on a tree. She ran to the tree and pulled the leaf off. She ran back to Tom and their cars.
+
+"Look, Tom," she said. "We can use this leaf to cover our cars. It will keep them dry and safe."
+
+Tom smiled and helped Lily to cover their cars with the leaf. They picked up their cars and the leaf and ran inside. They were happy. They had saved their cars from the rain. They decided to make a tent with the leaf and play with their cars inside. They forgot about the rain and had fun.
+Anna liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to be a big girl and do what mom did. One day, mom asked Anna to carry a tray of cookies to the living room. Anna was very happy and proud. She took the tray carefully and walked slowly.
+
+But on the way, she saw her cat, Fluffy, playing with a ball of yarn. Anna loved Fluffy and wanted to play with him too. She forgot about the tray and ran to Fluffy. She dropped the tray on the floor. The cookies broke and scattered everywhere.
+
+Anna heard a loud noise and turned around. She saw the mess she had made. She felt very bad and scared. She knew mom would be angry. She felt helpless and started to cry.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Anna crying and the cookies on the floor. She was not angry. She was sorry for Anna. She hugged her and said, "It's okay, sweetie. Accidents happen. You were trying to help me, and I appreciate that. But next time, you have to be more careful and pay attention to what you are carrying. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I'm sorry. I love you." Mom smiled and said, "I love you too. Now let's clean up this mess and make some more cookies. And maybe Fluffy can have one too." Anna smiled and said, "Yes, mom. Thank you." She felt better and helped mom with the tray and the cookies. She learned a lesson and had fun with mom and Fluffy.
+Anna loved to play with her grandma's old things. She liked to look at the shiny rings and necklaces, the soft scarves and hats, and the funny pictures in the books. Grandma said they were ancient, which meant they were very, very old.
+
+One day, Anna found a small box in a drawer. She opened it and saw a ring. It was silver and had a blue stone. It sparkled in the light. Anna put it on her finger and felt happy. She ran to show grandma.
+
+"Look, grandma, look what I found!" Anna said.
+
+Grandma smiled and hugged Anna. She looked at the ring and her eyes became wet.
+
+"That was my mommy's ring," grandma said. "She gave it to me when I was a little girl, like you. She loved me very much. She is in heaven now, but I still have her memory in my heart."
+
+Anna hugged grandma back. She felt sad and curious.
+
+"Can I keep the ring, grandma?" Anna asked.
+
+Grandma nodded and kissed Anna's cheek.
+
+"Of course, my dear. It is yours now. It is a special ring. It has love and memory in it. You can wear it and remember your great-grandma, and me, and all the people who love you."
+
+Anna smiled and thanked grandma. She felt the ring on her finger and thought of her great-grandma, who she never met, but who loved her. She felt warm and happy. She had a special ring, a special grandma, and a special memory.
+Sam and Ben love to play football. They kick the ball in the park every day. They want to improve and be the best. But they are not careful. They do not look where they go. They do not listen to their moms.
+
+One day, they see a big field with many flowers. They think it is a good place to play football. They run to the field with their ball. They do not see the sign that says "Do not enter. Wild animals inside."
+
+They start to kick the ball and have fun. They do not hear the growl behind them. They do not see the big lion that comes out of the bushes. The lion is hungry and angry. It sees the boys and the ball.
+
+"Look, Ben, I can kick the ball very high!" Sam says.
+
+"Me too, Sam, watch this!" Ben says.
+
+They kick the ball very hard. The ball flies in the air. The lion jumps and catches the ball. It bites the ball and pops it. The boys hear the loud noise and turn around. They see the lion with the ball in its mouth. They scream and try to run away. But it is too late. The lion is faster and stronger. It pounces on the boys and eats them. The end.
+Anna likes to write. She has a big book with many pages. She writes her name, and some letters, and some shapes. She likes to write with different colors. She has a red pen, a blue pen, a green pen, and a yellow pen.
+
+One day, Anna finds a new thing to write with. It is a long, thin, smooth thing. It is white and shiny. Anna thinks it is pretty. She asks her mom what it is. Her mom says it is thread. She says thread is for sewing, not for writing.
+
+Anna wants to try writing with thread. She takes the thread and a needle from her mom's sewing box. She pokes the needle through the thread. She makes a knot. She is careful not to hurt herself.
+
+Anna opens her big book. She puts the needle on the page. She moves the needle up and down, up and down. She makes a line with the thread. She makes a curve. She makes a circle. She makes a heart. She thinks it looks nice.
+
+Anna shows her mom what she wrote with thread. Her mom smiles. She says Anna is very clever. She says Anna can keep the thread and the needle. She says Anna can write more things with thread. Anna is happy. She hugs her mom. She says thank you. She writes "I love you" with thread.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with clay. They make animals and shapes with clay. They have fun.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their moms. They bring their clay with them. They find a big tree. They sit under the tree and play with clay.
+
+"Look, I made a cat!" Lily says. She shows Ben her clay cat. It has ears, eyes, a nose, and a tail.
+
+"Wow, that's a good cat!" Ben says. He shows Lily his clay dog. It has ears, eyes, a nose, and a tail too.
+
+They make more animals with clay. They are happy.
+
+But then, a wind comes. It blows very hard. It makes the leaves fly. It makes the clay fly too.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben say. They try to catch their clay animals. But the wind is too fast. The clay animals fly away.
+
+They are sad. They lose their clay animals.
+
+They look at each other. They have no clay left.
+
+They start to cry.
+
+Their moms hear them. They come to them.
+
+"What's wrong, sweeties?" their moms ask.
+
+"We lose our clay animals!" Lily and Ben say. They point to the sky.
+
+Their moms hug them. They feel sorry for them.
+
+"That's too bad," their moms say. "But don't worry. We can buy more clay. And you can make new animals. Maybe even better ones."
+
+Lily and Ben stop crying. They think about it.
+
+"Really?" they ask.
+
+"Really," their moms say. "Come on, let's go to the store. Maybe we can find some weird clay. Like purple or green or sparkly."
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They like weird clay. They think it will be fun.
+
+They hold their moms' hands. They go to the store.
+
+They hope to find some weird clay. And they hope the wind will not blow it away.
+Tom and Mia were nosy kids. They liked to look at things that were not theirs. One day, they found a ladder in the garage. The ladder went up to the attic. The attic was a dark and dusty place. They wanted to see what was in the attic.
+
+They climbed the ladder and opened the door. They saw many boxes and bags. They also saw a big can with a hose. The can said "spray". Tom was curious. He picked up the can and pressed the button. A loud hiss came out of the can. A smelly gas filled the air.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing?" Mia asked. She coughed and covered her nose. "Put that down, it stinks!"
+
+Tom did not listen. He liked the sound of the spray. He pointed the hose at Mia and pressed the button again. "Ha ha, got you!" he said.
+
+Mia screamed and ran to the door. She tried to open it, but it was stuck. The gas made her eyes water and her throat hurt. She banged on the door and shouted for help.
+
+But no one heard them. The gas was poison. It was for killing bugs. The can had a warning on it, but Tom and Mia could not read it. They did not know they were in danger. They kept spraying and coughing until they fell down and did not get up. The attic was silent.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make noises like vroom and beep when they move the cars.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race with their cars. They line up their cars on the floor and say "ready, set, go!" They push their cars as fast as they can. They want to see which car is the fastest.
+
+Tim's car is red and shiny. It has a big buckle on the front. Tim thinks the buckle makes his car look cool. Sam's car is blue and old. It has a dent on the side. Sam thinks the dent makes his car look tough.
+
+Tim's car is very fast. It speeds ahead of Sam's car. Tim laughs and says "my car is the best! It is faster than your car!"
+
+Sam's car is not very fast. It falls behind Tim's car. Sam is sad and says "your car is not fair! It has a buckle that makes it go faster!"
+
+Tim says "no, it doesn't! The buckle is just for show. It doesn't make my car go faster. You are just silly!"
+
+Sam says "no, you are silly! The buckle is cheating. It makes your car go faster. You are not a good racer!"
+
+They start to argue and shout. They forget about the race. They are not having fun anymore.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees their cars and their faces. She says "boys, boys, what is going on? Why are you fighting over your cars?"
+
+They tell her about the race and the buckle. She says "boys, boys, you are both silly. The buckle and the dent don't make your cars go faster or slower. They are just part of your cars. They make your cars special and different. You should be proud of your cars and respect each other's cars. You should not fight over your cars. You should share and play nicely with your cars."
+
+They listen to Mom and feel sorry. They say "sorry, Mom. Sorry, brother. You are right. The buckle and the dent don't matter. We like our cars and we like each other. We want to play together and have fun."
+
+Mom smiles and says "that's good, boys. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Now, why don't you finish your race and see who wins? But remember, it's not about who is faster or slower. It's about who is happier and kinder."
+
+They hug Mom and say "thank you, Mom. We love you. We love our cars. We love our race."
+
+They go back to their cars and say "ready, set, go!" They push their cars as fast as they can. They cheer and clap for each other. They don't care who wins. They are happy and kind. They are having fun.
+Tom and Anna were friends. They liked to play in the park. Yesterday, they went to the park with their moms. They saw a big tree with many leaves.
+
+"Look, Tom, the leaves are green and red and yellow. They are pretty," Anna said.
+
+"Yes, they are. Let's make a pile of leaves and jump in it," Tom said.
+
+They ran to the tree and picked up many leaves. They spread them on the ground. They made a big pile of leaves. They were happy.
+
+"Ready, Anna? One, two, three, jump!" Tom said.
+
+They jumped in the pile of leaves. They laughed and giggled. The leaves flew in the air. They felt soft and crunchy.
+
+"Wow, this is fun, Tom. Let's do it again," Anna said.
+
+They jumped in the pile of leaves again and again. They had a lot of fun. Their moms watched them and smiled.
+
+Soon, it was time to go home. They said goodbye to the tree and the leaves. They hugged each other and said goodbye.
+
+"See you tomorrow, Anna. We can play in the park again," Tom said.
+
+"See you tomorrow, Tom. I like playing with you," Anna said.
+
+They walked home with their moms. They were tired but happy. They had a good day.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Lily were playing pirates in the garden. They had a big box that was their ship and a small bag that was their treasure. They filled the bag with shiny things like coins, buttons and jewels. They wanted to load the bag on their ship and sail away.
+
+But then they saw Max, the big dog from next door. Max liked to chase and bark at them. He saw their bag and thought it was a toy. He ran towards them and grabbed the bag with his teeth. He shook it hard and some of the jewels fell out.
+
+"Hey, that's our treasure!" Tom shouted. "Give it back, Max!"
+
+Lily was scared of Max. She hid behind the box and cried. "Tom, what do we do?"
+
+Tom had an idea. He saw a hose that was near the box. He turned it on and sprayed water at Max. Max was surprised and let go of the bag. He ran away, wet and angry.
+
+Tom and Lily picked up their bag and their jewels. They checked if anything was missing. They were happy to see that they still had their treasure.
+
+"Good job, Tom!" Lily said. "You scared Max away!"
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Tom said. "You helped me load the bag!"
+
+They hugged and smiled. They put the bag on their ship and pretended to sail to a deep and far away island. They were the best pirates ever.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big toy robot in the park. It is broken. Anna wants to repair it. Ben wants to keep it.
+
+"Let me fix it," Anna says. "It can talk and walk and play with us."
+
+"No, it is mine," Ben says. "I found it first. You can't touch it."
+
+They fight over the robot. They pull and push and shout. The robot falls to the ground. It makes a loud noise. Smoke comes out of it.
+
+"Oh no, what did you do?" Anna cries. "You broke it more. Now it can't talk or walk or play. You are foolish."
+
+Ben feels bad. He looks at the robot. He tries to make it work. He pushes a button. The robot says something. But it is not a language they know. It sounds strange and scary.
+
+"Help, help, it is talking to me!" Ben screams. "It is angry. It wants to hurt me."
+
+Anna runs away. She is afraid of the robot. She does not want to be friends with Ben anymore. Ben is alone with the robot. He is sorry. He wishes he had let Anna repair it. He wishes he had shared it. He wishes he had been nice. But it is too late. The robot is not a toy. It is a trap.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they fight. One day, they find a big box in the garage. They want to make a fort with the box.
+
+"I want to cut a window here," Lily says, pointing to a side of the box.
+
+"No, I want to cut a door there," Ben says, pointing to the same side.
+
+They start to pull and push the box. They complain and yell at each other.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom says, coming into the garage. "You are making too much noise. Why can't you share the box?"
+
+"But Mom, he wants to ruin my window!" Lily says.
+
+"But Mom, she wants to take my door!" Ben says.
+
+Mom sighs. She takes a pair of scissors and cuts a window and a door on opposite sides of the box. She gives each twin a crayon and tells them to draw whatever they want on their side.
+
+"There, now you have a fort with a window and a door. You can both play inside or outside. But please, be nice to each other and don't complain," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben look at the box. They see that it is a normal box, but it is also a fun fort. They smile and hug Mom.
+
+"Thank you, Mom!" they say.
+
+They go inside the box and start to play. They pretend to be pirates, astronauts, and animals. They rub their noses and make funny faces. They laugh and have fun. They don't fight anymore. They are happy.
+Lily loved to design castles. She used her blocks, her crayons, and her stickers to make them. She made big castles and small castles, pink castles and blue castles, castles with towers and castles with bridges. She was very proud of her castles.
+
+One day, she decided to make a castle for her teddy bear. She wanted to make it very charming, so she used her prettiest blocks and her shiniest stickers. She made a door, a window, and a flag for the castle. She put her teddy bear inside and gave him a crown. She said, "You are the king of the castle, Teddy. You are very charming."
+
+But then, her brother Max came into her room. He saw her castle and said, "That's a silly castle. It's too small and too pink. I can make a better castle." He took some of her blocks and stickers and started to make his own castle. He made it very big and very gray. He said, "This is a real castle. It's strong and scary. I am the king of the castle, and you are not."
+
+Lily was very sad. She did not like Max's castle. She did not like that he took her things. She did not like that he was mean to her and her teddy bear. She said, "No, you are not the king of the castle. You are a bad brother. You ruined my castle. Go away!"
+
+Max did not listen. He said, "I don't care. I like my castle. It's better than yours. You are a baby. You don't know how to design castles." He pushed her castle and made it fall. He laughed and said, "Ha ha, your castle is broken. My castle is the best."
+
+Lily was very angry. She cried and said, "You are a bully. You are not my brother. You are a monster." She grabbed her teddy bear and ran out of the room. She went to find her mom and tell her what Max did. She hoped that her mom would make Max say sorry and help her fix her castle. She hoped that her mom would hug her and tell her that her castle was charming and that she was a good designer. She hoped that her mom would love her and her teddy bear.
+Lily was a clumsy angel. She had big wings, but she did not know how to fly well. She often bumped into things and fell down. The other angels laughed at her and called her names.
+
+One day, Lily was sad and lonely. She wanted to find a friend who would like her. She wandered away from the clouds and the other angels. She saw a big blue ball with many colors. She wanted to see what it was.
+
+She flew closer and closer to the ball. She saw green and brown and white and blue. She saw trees and flowers and animals and people. She saw a little girl playing with a ball in a park. The girl looked happy and kind. Lily wanted to play with her.
+
+She flew down to the park and landed near the girl. The girl saw her and smiled. She said, "Hello, who are you? Are you an angel?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, I am an angel. My name is Lily. Can I play with you?"
+
+The girl said, "Of course, you can. My name is Anna. You have beautiful wings. Do you want to play ball with me?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I do. Thank you for being nice to me. You are my friend."
+
+Anna said, "You are welcome. You are my friend, too. Come on, let's play."
+
+Lily and Anna played ball and had fun. Lily was not clumsy anymore. She was happy and proud. She had found a friend who liked her. She had found a place where she belonged.
+Sara liked to record her voice with her toy phone. She would say funny things and then listen to them. She thought it was fun to hear her own voice.
+
+One day, she brought her toy phone to her class. She wanted to show it to her friends and teacher. She waited for the right time to use it.
+
+During story time, the teacher was reading a book about a distant land. Sara thought it was boring. She decided to record her voice and make a joke. She whispered into her toy phone, "This story is silly. I want to go home and play."
+
+She pressed the button to play her voice. But she did not know that the toy phone was very loud. Everyone in the class heard her voice. The teacher stopped reading and looked at Sara. The other kids laughed.
+
+Sara felt embarrassed. She wished she did not record her voice. She learned that it was not nice to interrupt the teacher and make fun of the story. She said sorry to the teacher and the class. She put away her toy phone and listened to the rest of the story. She hoped that the distant land would be more interesting.
+Tom and Lily were friends. They liked to watch movies together. One day, they went to see a movie about a furry dog. The dog was very funny and smart. He could do tricks and talk to people.
+
+Tom and Lily laughed a lot at the movie. They liked the dog very much. They wanted to applaud him when the movie was over. But some other kids in the movie theater did not like the dog. They thought he was silly and annoying. They booed and threw popcorn at the screen.
+
+Tom and Lily were sad and angry. They did not like the other kids. They wanted to tell them to stop. But the other kids were bigger and louder. They did not listen to Tom and Lily. They kept booing and throwing popcorn.
+
+The movie ended. The dog said goodbye and thanked everyone for watching. Tom and Lily tried to applaud him. But they could not hear him over the noise. The other kids laughed and ran out of the theater.
+
+Tom and Lily felt bad. They did not enjoy the movie. They did not get to say thank you to the dog. They wished the other kids were nicer. They walked home quietly, holding hands. They hoped the dog was happy somewhere. They hoped they could see him again.
+Sara likes to draw with her pens. She has many pens of different colors. She can make pictures of flowers, animals, and people. She is happy when she draws.
+
+One day, she wants to draw a big lion. She takes her yellow pen and makes a circle for the head. She takes her brown pen and makes lines for the mane. She takes her black pen and makes dots for the eyes and nose. She takes her red pen and makes a curve for the mouth.
+
+But when she wants to make teeth for the lion, her red pen has no ink. She tries to shake it, but nothing comes out. She looks for another red pen, but she cannot find one. She has used all her red ink. She is sad. She wants to finish her lion.
+
+She goes to her mom and asks for more red ink. Her mom says she will supply her with more red ink, but she has to wait. She has to go to the store and buy it. Sara does not want to wait. She wants to draw now.
+
+She thinks of an idea. She goes to the kitchen and finds a bottle of ketchup. She takes it to her room and squeezes some on her paper. She uses her finger to make teeth for the lion. She is happy. She has finished her lion.
+
+But when her mom comes back, she is not happy. She sees the ketchup on the paper and on the floor and on the bed. She sees Sara's red finger and face. She is angry. She says Sara has made a big mess. She says Sara has to clean it up. She says Sara has to say sorry.
+
+Sara is sorry. She did not mean to make a mess. She only wanted to draw a fierce lion. She says sorry to her mom and helps her clean up. She says she will not use ketchup again. She says she will wait for more red ink. She says she loves her mom. Her mom says she loves her too. She gives her a hug and a kiss. She gives her more red ink. Sara is happy. She can draw more pictures.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the yard. They had a big pile of leaves that they raked with their dad. They liked to jump in the leaves and make noise.
+
+"Let's pretend we are animals in the forest," Lily said. "I will be a fox and you will be a bear."
+
+"OK," Ben said. "But what do we eat?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She saw some apples on the tree. "We can eat apples. They are sweet and crunchy."
+
+She ran to the tree and picked an apple. She took a bite and made a face. "Yuck! This apple is sour. It hurts my teeth."
+
+Ben laughed. He picked another apple and smelled it. "This one is good. It smells nice. Here, you can have it."
+
+He gave the apple to Lily and she smiled. She took a bite and nodded. "Thank you, Ben. This apple is yummy. You are a nice bear."
+
+They ate their apples and played some more. They pretended they were animals in the forest until their mom called them for lunch. They ran inside and hugged their mom. They told her about their adventure and showed her their apples.
+
+The end.
+Tom liked to design things with his blocks. He had many blocks of different colors and shapes. He could make towers, bridges, cars, and animals. He was very proud of his designs.
+
+One day, he wanted to make a big house for his teddy bear. He used many blocks to make the walls and the roof. He used a red square block for the door. He put his teddy bear inside the house and said, "Look, teddy, this is your new home. Do you like it?"
+
+Teddy nodded and smiled. He liked the house very much. He thanked Tom for his design. Tom was happy.
+
+But then, Tom heard a loud noise. It was his baby sister, Lily. She had crawled into his room and saw the blocks. She liked the blocks too. She wanted to play with them. She reached for the red square block that was the door.
+
+Tom saw Lily and shouted, "No, Lily, don't touch that! That's the door for teddy's house. You will break it!"
+
+But it was too late. Lily grabbed the red square block and pulled it out. The house collapsed. The blocks fell everywhere. Teddy fell out too. He looked sad.
+
+Tom was angry and sad. He cried. He said, "Lily, you ruined my design. You are a bad sister. Go away!"
+
+Lily was scared and confused. She did not mean to break the house. She just wanted to play. She cried too. She said, "Sorry, Tom, sorry. I like the red square. It is useful. I can make a heart with it. See?"
+
+She showed Tom the red square block. She had turned it sideways and made a heart shape with her fingers. She smiled.
+
+Tom looked at the red square block. He saw the heart shape. He felt a little better. He said, "That's a nice heart, Lily. But you still broke my house. How can we fix it?"
+
+Lily said, "We can make a new house. Together. I can help you. We can use the red square for the window. Then teddy can see outside. And we can use other blocks for the door. And the roof. And the walls. It will be a better house. Do you want to try?"
+
+Tom thought about it. He liked the idea of a new house. He liked the idea of a window. He liked the idea of playing with Lily. He said, "Okay, Lily, let's try. But you have to be careful. And you have to listen to me. I am the designer. You are the helper. Deal?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Deal. You are the designer. I am the helper. We are the builders. And teddy is the owner. Let's go!"
+
+They hugged and smiled. They picked up the blocks and started to make a new house. They used the red square for the window. They used other blocks for the door. And the roof. And the walls. It was a better house. Teddy liked it too. He thanked Tom and Lily for their design. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big sign that said "Race". It was a race for kids. They wanted to join.
+
+"Let's go, Lily. We can win a medal. A medal is shiny and pretty. You can wear it on your neck," Ben said.
+
+"OK, Ben. But we have to be fast and strong. There are many kids who want to win too," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the start line. They waited for the whistle. When they heard it, they ran as fast as they could. They passed many kids. They were almost at the finish line.
+
+But then, Ben tripped on a rock. He fell down. He hurt his knee. He cried. Lily stopped and ran back to him.
+
+"Ben, are you OK? Does it hurt?" Lily asked.
+
+"It hurts, Lily. And look, I tore my pants. They have a big hole. Mom will be mad," Ben said.
+
+Lily hugged him. She saw a medal on the ground. It was shiny and pretty. It had fallen from another kid's neck.
+
+"Ben, look. I found a medal. You can have it. You are strong and brave. You don't need to win the race. You are my best friend," Lily said.
+
+She put the medal on his neck. He smiled. He hugged her back.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are kind and sweet. You are my best friend too. And look, we are still in the race. We can finish together," Ben said.
+
+They held hands and walked to the finish line. They were happy. They had a medal and a friend. They didn't care who won the race. They had each other.
+Tom and Sue were playing in the woods. They liked to look for bugs and flowers and sticks. They saw a big house with a fence and a gate. Tom wanted to go inside and see what was there. Sue was scared.
+
+"Let's go, Tom. It might be a witch's house. Witches are bad. They do mean things to kids," Sue said.
+
+"Don't be stupid, Sue. There is no such thing as witches. It's just a house. Maybe there is candy or toys inside. Come on, trust me. It will be fun," Tom said.
+
+He opened the gate and ran to the door. Sue followed him, but she was not happy. She wished they stayed in the woods.
+
+They knocked on the door. No one answered. Tom pushed the door and it opened. He went inside. Sue stayed outside. She heard a loud noise. It was a witch. She came out of the house. She was angry.
+
+"Who are you? What are you doing here? This is my house. You are trespassing. I will turn you into frogs and eat you for dinner," the witch said.
+
+She pointed her stick at Tom and Sue. They were very scared. They ran away as fast as they could. The witch chased them. She was fast too.
+
+"Help! Help! There is a witch after us!" Tom and Sue shouted.
+
+They saw their mom and dad. They were looking for them. They ran to them and hugged them. They told them about the witch. Their mom and dad were shocked.
+
+"Tom and Sue, you should never go to strangers' houses. It is very dangerous. You don't know who lives there or what they might do. You are lucky you escaped. The witch could have hurt you or worse. You should always listen to Sue. She is smart and careful. You should not call her stupid. You should trust her. She is your sister and she loves you," their mom said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sue. I was wrong. You were right. There was a witch. She was bad. You are smart and careful. I love you. I will trust you. I will not call you stupid. Can you forgive me?" Tom said.
+
+"Of course, Tom. I forgive you. I love you too. I will trust you. But next time, let's stay in the woods. It is safer and more fun," Sue said.
+
+They hugged each other. Their mom and dad smiled. They took them home. They had cookies and milk. They learned their lesson. They never went to the witch's house again. They were happy. The end.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They had a small box and a magnifying glass to examine what they found.
+
+"Look, Tim, I found a shiny comb!" Lily said, holding up a blue plastic comb. "Maybe it belongs to a fairy!"
+
+"Wow, let me see!" Tim said, taking the comb from Lily. He looked at it closely with the magnifying glass. "It has tiny teeth and a long handle. Maybe it is for combing fairy hair!"
+
+They heard a loud roar from behind the bushes. They turned around and saw a big, fierce lion. It had yellow fur, sharp claws and a long mane. It looked angry and hungry.
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Tim shouted, dropping the comb and the magnifying glass. He grabbed Lily's hand and they ran towards the house. The lion chased them, roaring and snarling.
+
+"Help, help!" they screamed, banging on the door. Their mom opened the door and pulled them inside. She slammed the door shut and locked it.
+
+"What's wrong, my darlings?" she asked, hugging them.
+
+"There's a lion in the garden!" Tim and Lily cried. "It wanted to eat us!"
+
+"A lion?" their mom said, surprised. "Are you sure?"
+
+She looked out of the window and saw the lion. It was not a real lion, but a big stuffed toy. It had a button on its paw that made it roar. It was their dad's prank. He had hidden behind the bushes and pressed the button.
+
+Their mom laughed and shook her head. "That's your dad, always playing jokes. Don't worry, it's not a real lion. It's just a toy. Come on, let's go and tell him off."
+
+She opened the door and walked out with Tim and Lily. They saw their dad laughing and holding the toy lion. He saw them and smiled.
+
+"Did I scare you, my little cubs?" he asked, teasing them.
+
+"Yes, you did!" Tim and Lily said, pouting. "That was not funny, dad. That was mean!"
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I was just having some fun. Forgive me?" he said, hugging them.
+
+They looked at him and then at each other. They decided to forgive him, but only if he gave them the comb and the magnifying glass. They liked to examine things, even if they were not from fairies.
+Lily liked to play with her dog, Spot. Spot was big and brown and had a long tail. Lily's mom always told her to use a leash when she took Spot outside. A leash was a rope that went around Spot's neck and Lily's hand. It helped Lily and Spot stay together and not get lost.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to teach Spot a new trick. She saw a big stick on the ground and picked it up. She waved it in front of Spot and said, "Spot, fetch!" She threw the stick far away and waited for Spot to run after it. But Spot did not move. He looked at Lily and barked.
+
+"Come on, Spot, fetch!" Lily said again. She pulled on the leash, but Spot did not budge. He growled and showed his teeth. Lily felt scared. She did not know why Spot was acting so fierce. She dropped the leash and ran back to the house. She hoped Spot would follow her.
+
+But Spot did not follow her. He saw the stick on the ground and ran after it. He liked to chew on sticks. He did not see the big car that was coming fast on the road. He did not hear the horn or the brakes. He only felt a big pain and then nothing.
+
+Lily's mom heard the noise and came outside. She saw Spot lying on the road, not moving. She saw the stick and the leash. She saw Lily crying on the porch. She ran to Lily and hugged her. She tried to comfort her, but she felt very sad too. She wished Lily had listened to her and used the leash. She wished Spot had learned to fetch. She wished they could all play together again. But it was too late.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with candles. They had a big box of candles in different colors and shapes. They would light them and watch them burn, but they did not know how to be careful.
+
+One day, they found a new candle in the box. It was white and round and had a picture of a star on it. They thought it was a special candle and wanted to see how it looked when it was lit. They took it to their room and put it on their table. They found a match and lit the candle.
+
+The candle burned brightly and made a nice smell. Lily and Ben were happy and clapped their hands. They did not see that the candle was too close to the curtains. The flame touched the curtains and they caught fire. The fire spread quickly and made a lot of smoke and noise.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared and ran out of the room. They screamed for their mom and dad. Their mom and dad came and saw the fire. They called the firemen and tried to put out the fire. The firemen came and used water and hoses to stop the fire. They saved the house, but the room was burned and ruined.
+
+Lily and Ben were very sorry and sad. They cried and hugged their mom and dad. They said they were sorry and did not mean to start the fire. Their mom and dad were angry and sad, but they also loved them and forgave them. They said they were ignorant and did not know how to play with candles. They said they had to pay for the damage and learn to be careful. They said they would never let them play with candles again. Lily and Ben nodded and said they understood. They said they would be good and listen to their mom and dad. They said they loved them and thanked them for saving them. They said they learned a lesson and would never play with candles again.
+Lily and Ben were playing near the creek. They liked to throw stones and watch the water splash. They also liked to look for frogs and fish. But today, the sky was gray and it started to rain. The rain made the creek bigger and faster. Lily and Ben felt cold and wet.
+
+"Let's go home," Lily said. "I don't like the rain."
+
+"Me neither," Ben said. "But how do we cross the creek? It's too deep and scary."
+
+They looked around and saw a big log. The log was over the creek. Lily and Ben thought they could walk on the log and get to the other side.
+
+"Be careful," Lily said. "The log is slippery."
+
+"I will," Ben said. He went first and held on to the log. He walked slowly and reached the other side. He waved to Lily.
+
+"Your turn," he said.
+
+Lily nodded and stepped on the log. She tried to hold on, but the log was too wet. She slipped and fell into the creek. The water was cold and dirty. Lily cried and screamed.
+
+"Help me, Ben!" she said.
+
+Ben was scared, but he wanted to help Lily. He grabbed a branch and reached out to Lily. Lily grabbed the branch and Ben pulled her out of the creek. They hugged and shivered.
+
+"Are you okay?" Ben asked.
+
+"I'm okay," Lily said. "But I'm miserable. I'm soaked and muddy."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. "Let's go home and get dry."
+
+They ran to their house and knocked on the door. Their mom opened the door and saw them. She gasped and smiled.
+
+"What happened to you?" she asked.
+
+"We played near the creek and it rained and Lily fell in and Ben saved me and we're miserable," Lily said in one breath.
+
+"Oh, you poor things," their mom said. "Come in, come in. I'll wipe you with a towel and give you some warm clothes and hot chocolate. You're very brave and very lucky."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and hugged their mom. They felt better and warmer. They still liked the creek, but they decided to play somewhere else when it rained.
+Lily liked to slide on the big slide at the park. She felt happy when she went fast and the wind blew her hair. She liked to see the trees and the sky and the other kids playing.
+
+One day, she saw a new slide at the park. It was shiny and smooth and made of glass. Lily wanted to try it. She ran to the glass slide and climbed up the steps. She sat on the top and looked down. She saw her reflection in the glass. She smiled and waved.
+
+She pushed herself off and slid down the glass slide. But it was not fun. It was harsh and cold and hurt her skin. She felt a sharp pain in her leg. She looked and saw a cut and some blood. She cried and cried. She wanted her mom.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and ran to her. She saw the cut and the blood and the glass slide. She hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, my love. That slide is not for kids. It is dangerous and mean. Let's go to the nurse and get a band-aid. Then we can go to the big slide and have fun."
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She held her mom's hand and walked to the nurse. The nurse was kind and gave her a band-aid and a sticker. Lily said, "Thank you." She felt better.
+
+She and her mom went back to the big slide. Lily slid down and felt happy again. She said, "I like the big slide. It is soft and warm and nice. I don't like the glass slide. It is harsh and cold and bad." Her mom said, "I agree. The big slide is the best. I love you, Lily." Lily said, "I love you, too, Mom." They hugged and smiled.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together every day. They have many toys and books and games. But their favorite thing is to listen to stories. Every night, their mom or dad tells them a story before they go to sleep.
+
+One night, mom is very tired. She had a long day at work. She tells Anna and Ben that she is sorry, but she cannot tell them a story tonight. She asks them to go to bed and sleep well. Anna and Ben are sad. They love stories. They ask mom to please tell them a story.
+
+Mom sees their sad faces. She feels sorry too. She loves her twins. She wants to make them happy. She thinks for a moment. Then she has an idea. She says, "How about this? I will make you a promise. Tomorrow, I will tell you two stories instead of one. One in the morning and one at night. How does that sound?"
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They like mom's idea. They like promises. They say, "Okay, mom. We will wait for tomorrow. We will listen to two stories. Thank you, mom. We love you." They give mom a big hug and a kiss.
+
+Mom hugs and kisses them back. She says, "I love you too, my sweet twins. Now, go to bed and sleep well. Dream of stories. I will see you in the morning." She tucks them in and turns off the light. She hears them whisper, "Good night, mom. Good night, Anna. Good night, Ben." She smiles and walks out of the room. She is still tired, but she is happy. She has made a promise. And she will keep it.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They are three years old. They like to play with their toys and books. But they are different in some ways. Ben likes to run and jump and climb. Mia likes to draw and sing and dance.
+
+One day, their mom says, "We are going to the park. You can play with your friends there. But you have to listen to me and be careful."
+
+Ben and Mia are happy. They put on their hats and shoes. They hold their mom's hand and walk to the park.
+
+At the park, they see a big slide. Ben wants to go on the slide. He says, "Mia, come with me. The slide is fun."
+
+Mia looks at the slide. She is scared. She says, "No, Ben. The slide is too high. I don't want to go."
+
+Ben says, "Don't be scared, Mia. I will help you. You can do it."
+
+Mia shakes her head. She says, "No, thank you. I want to play with the swings."
+
+Ben says, "Okay, Mia. You play with the swings. I will play with the slide."
+
+Ben runs to the slide. He climbs the stairs. He sits on the slide. He slides down fast. He laughs. He says, "Whee! This is fun!"
+
+Mia walks to the swings. She sits on a swing. She pushes with her feet. She swings back and forth. She smiles. She says, "Whee! This is fun!"
+
+Ben and Mia are different. But they both have fun. They manage to play in their own way. They are happy twins.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big box in the garage. The box has a picture of a modern car. Tom and Jen want to play with the car.
+
+They open the box. The car is not ready. It has many parts and wires. Tom and Jen do not know how to make the car. They see a tool. The tool can cut things. Tom has an idea.
+
+He says, "Let's cut the wires. Then we can turn the parts and make the car." Jen nods. They take the tool and cut the wires. The wires are colorful and shiny. They cut many wires.
+
+But something is wrong. The wires are not for the car. They are for the garage. The garage has a light and a door. The wires make the light and the door work. When Tom and Jen cut the wires, they break the light and the door.
+
+The light goes off. The door goes down. Tom and Jen are trapped in the dark. They hear a loud noise. It is the car. The car is not a toy. It is a real car. It has a battery and a motor. When Tom and Jen cut the wires, they make the car start.
+
+The car moves. It is fast and loud. It hits the box. It hits the tool. It hits Tom and Jen. They scream. They are hurt. They are scared. They wish they did not cut the wires. They wish they did not play with the car. They wish they listened to their mom and dad. The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a big doll and Ben had a small aeroplane. Ben liked to make the aeroplane fly in the air and make zooming noises. Lily liked to dress up the doll and comb her hair.
+
+"Look, Lily, my aeroplane can do a loop!" Ben said, as he moved his hand in a circle.
+
+"Wow, that's cool, Ben!" Lily said, clapping her hands. "Can I try?"
+
+"OK, but be careful. It's my favourite aeroplane." Ben said, handing the toy to Lily.
+
+Lily took the aeroplane and tried to make it fly like Ben. But she was not very good at it. She made the aeroplane go too fast and too high. It hit the ceiling and fell down. It landed on the table, where Mom was working on her laptop.
+
+"Oops!" Lily said, feeling scared.
+
+"Hey, what was that?" Mom said, looking up from her screen. She saw the aeroplane on her keyboard. It had pressed some buttons and made her laptop print something. She picked up the paper that came out of the printer. It had some weird shapes and colours on it.
+
+"What is this?" Mom asked, holding the paper.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. It was an accident. I was playing with Ben's aeroplane and it hit your laptop." Lily said, looking down.
+
+"It's OK, Lily. I'm not mad. But you should be more careful with your toys. And Ben, you should share nicely with your sister." Mom said, smiling.
+
+"OK, Mom. We're sorry." Ben and Lily said, hugging Mom.
+
+Mom hugged them back and said, "It's OK. I love you both. And you know what? This paper is actually very pretty. It looks like a rainbow. Do you want to keep it?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben and Lily said, excited.
+
+"OK, then. You can hang it on your wall. It's a special print from your aeroplane." Mom said, giving them the paper.
+
+"Yay! Thank you, Mom!" Ben and Lily said, taking the paper.
+
+They ran to their room and hung the paper on their wall. They looked at it and smiled. It was a weird print, but it was also a beautiful one. They liked their aeroplane and their Mom very much.
+Tom is a dog. He is big and brown and has a red collar. He likes to run and play and bark. He does not like to stay in the yard. He is stubborn.
+
+One day, Tom sees a cat. The cat is small and black and has a bell. Tom wants to chase the cat. He runs to the fence and jumps over it. He does not listen to his owner, who calls him back.
+
+"Tom, come here! Bad dog!" his owner says. "You have to wear your leash. You can't run away."
+
+But Tom does not care. He runs after the cat. The cat is fast and smart. It runs to a tree and climbs up. Tom can't climb. He barks at the cat.
+
+"Meow!" the cat says. "You are silly, dog. You can't catch me. Go back to your yard."
+
+Tom is angry. He wants to catch the cat. He tries to climb the tree, but he falls. He hurts his paw. He whines.
+
+His owner comes and finds him. He is worried. He picks up Tom and checks his paw. He sees a cut. He says, "Oh, Tom. You are hurt. Why did you chase the cat? You have to be careful. You have to listen to me."
+
+He puts Tom in his car and drives to the vet. The vet cleans the cut and puts a bandage on it. He says, "Tom, you are lucky. It is not a big cut. But you have to be more obedient. You have to wear your collar and leash. You have to stay in your yard. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom nods. He is sorry. He does not want to chase the cat anymore. He wants to go home and rest. He licks his owner's hand. He says, "Woof. I love you. I will be good."
+
+His owner smiles. He says, "I love you too, Tom. You are a good dog. But you are also stubborn. Let's go home and end this adventure."
+Lily and Ben were on a trip with their mom and dad. They had to stay in a hotel for two nights. The hotel was big and had many rooms, but it was boring. There was nothing to play with, and the TV only had grown-up shows.
+
+One day, mom and dad said they had to go to a meeting. They told Lily and Ben to stay in the hotel room and be good. They said they would be back soon. Lily and Ben were sad. They did not want to stay in the boring hotel room.
+
+They looked around the room and saw a phone. Ben had an idea. He picked up the phone and pressed some buttons. He heard a voice say, "Hello, this is room service. How can I help you?"
+
+Ben smiled and said, "We want some ice cream, please. And some cookies. And some juice. And some toys. And some balloons. And some stickers. And some books. And some crayons. And some puzzles. And some candy. And some cake. And some pizza. And some popcorn. And some..."
+
+The voice said, "Wait, wait, wait. That's a lot of things. Who are you? Where are you?"
+
+Ben said, "We are Lily and Ben. We are in room 312. We are bored. Can you bring us all those things, please?"
+
+The voice said, "I'm sorry, but I can't do that. That's too much. And you need to ask your parents first. Where are your parents?"
+
+Ben said, "They are at a meeting. They will be back soon. Please, please, please, can you bring us some things? We are very bored."
+
+The voice said, "Well, I can offer you some ice cream and some cookies. And maybe one toy. And one book. And one sticker. But that's it. And you have to promise to be good and not make a mess. And you have to say thank you. And you have to share with your sister. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, yes, yes. We understand. We promise. We will be good. We will say thank you. We will share. Please, please, please, can you bring us those things?"
+
+The voice said, "Okay, okay, okay. I will bring you those things. But it will take some time. You have to wait. And you have to be quiet. And you have to be careful. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, yes, yes. We understand. We will wait. We will be quiet. We will be careful. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You are very nice."
+
+The voice said, "You're welcome, you're welcome, you're welcome. I will be there soon. Goodbye."
+
+Ben hung up the phone and said to Lily, "Guess what? We are getting some ice cream and some cookies. And some other things. Isn't that great?"
+
+Lily said, "Wow, that's great. How did you do that?"
+
+Ben said, "I used the phone. I called room service. They are very nice. They offered us some things. They are bringing them to us."
+
+Lily said, "That's amazing. You are very smart. I'm glad you did that. Maybe the hotel is not so boring after all."
+
+Ben said, "Me too. I'm happy. I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily said, "I love you too, Ben."
+
+They hugged and smiled. They waited for their ice cream and their cookies. And their other things. They hoped mom and dad would not be mad. They hoped room service would not be mad. They hoped the hotel would not be mad. They hoped they would have fun. They hoped they would not get in trouble. They hoped.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big tree with many birds. They hear a sound from the tree. It is a baby bird. It is crying.
+
+"Look, a baby bird!" Anna says. "It is sad. Maybe it is lost."
+
+"Let's help it," Ben says. "Maybe we can find its mom."
+
+They go to the tree. They see the baby bird on a branch. It is too high for them to reach. They look for a stick. They find a long stick. They try to lift the baby bird with the stick.
+
+"Be careful," Anna says. "Don't hurt it."
+
+"I'm trying," Ben says. "It is hard."
+
+They push the stick gently under the baby bird. The baby bird hops on the stick. They lower the stick slowly. They bring the baby bird to the ground.
+
+"Good job," Anna says. "We did it."
+
+The baby bird is still crying. It is scared. It wants its mom. They hear another sound from the tree. It is a big bird. It is the mom. It sees the baby bird. It flies to the ground. It goes to the baby bird. It nuzzles it with its beak.
+
+"Look, the mom is here," Ben says. "She is happy. She says thank you."
+
+The mom bird makes a sound. It sounds like thank you. It picks up the baby bird with its beak. It flies back to the tree. It puts the baby bird in its nest.
+
+Anna and Ben wave to the birds. They smile. They are happy. They helped the birds.
+
+"That was interesting," Anna says. "We learned something new."
+
+"Yes, it was," Ben says. "We are good helpers."
+
+They go back to playing. They have fun. They are friends.
+Lily and Ben were bored. They wanted to play with something new. They saw a big box in the hall. It had a lock on it.
+
+"Maybe there are toys in there," Lily said. "Let's try to unlock it."
+
+Ben nodded. He found a key on a hook. He put it in the lock and turned it. The box opened. Inside, there were many shiny things. They looked modern and cool.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Ben said. He picked up a small black thing with buttons. He pressed one. The thing made a loud noise. "Beep, beep, beep!"
+
+Lily covered her ears. She saw a round thing with a hole. She thought it was gum. She liked gum. She took it and put it in her mouth. It was not gum. It was bitter and hard. She spat it out.
+
+"Yuck, what is this?" Lily said. She looked at the thing. It had words on it. She could not read them.
+
+Ben looked too. He saw a picture on the thing. It was a skull and bones. He felt scared. He dropped the black thing. It made another noise. "Boom!"
+
+The box exploded. The shiny things flew everywhere. They hit Lily and Ben. They hurt them a lot. They screamed and cried.
+
+Mom and Dad heard the noise. They ran to the hall. They saw the smoke and the mess. They saw Lily and Ben on the floor. They were bleeding and burned. They were very angry and sad.
+
+They called for help. They hugged Lily and Ben. They said, "What have you done? This was not a toy box. This was a bomb box. It was for the army. You should not have touched it. You could have died. You were very naughty and foolish."
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. They had a lot of friends who wanted to play with them, because they were popular and fun. One day, they saw a big slide that looked very exciting. They ran to the slide and waited for their turn.
+
+"Can I go first?" Ben asked Lily.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The slide is very high and fast," Lily said.
+
+Ben nodded and climbed up the ladder. He reached the top and looked down. He felt a little scared, but he wanted to try the slide. He urged himself to be brave and slid down. He went very fast and felt the wind in his hair. He was happy and proud.
+
+He reached the bottom and jumped off the slide. He looked for Lily and saw her smiling at him. He smiled back and said, "That was fun! You should try it too!"
+
+Lily nodded and climbed up the ladder. She reached the top and looked down. She felt a little scared, too, but she wanted to try the slide. She urged herself to be brave and slid down. She went very fast and felt the wind in her hair. She was happy and proud, too.
+
+She reached the bottom and jumped off the slide. She looked for Ben and saw him waving at her. She waved back and said, "That was fun! Let's do it again!"
+
+But then, they heard a loud thunder and saw dark clouds in the sky. It started to rain very hard. They got wet and cold. They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. She had a big towel for them. She wrapped them in the towel and hugged them.
+
+"Are you OK, my darlings?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, we are OK. We had fun on the slide, but then it rained," Ben said.
+
+"We were brave and fast, but then we got wet and cold," Lily said.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You are very brave and fast, and I'm proud of you. But now, we have to go home and get dry and warm. Maybe we can come back another day and play on the slide again."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and said, "OK, Mom. We love you."
+
+They held Mom's hand and walked to the car. They were still wet and cold, but they felt happy and loved. They had a fun and exciting day at the park.
+Sara and Ben like to play with the big box of toys in the playroom. They have cars, dolls, blocks, and puzzles. But their favorite toy is the light-up bulb. The bulb is round and shiny, and it changes colors when you press a button.
+
+Sara and Ben are competitive. They want to have the bulb for themselves. They do not like to share. Sometimes they fight over the bulb and pull it from each other. This makes the bulb sad. The bulb does not like to be pulled. It likes to be pressed and make colors.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben are playing with the bulb. Sara has the bulb and presses the button. The bulb turns red. Ben wants the bulb and tries to grab it. Sara does not let go. They pull and pull. The bulb feels scared. It does not want to break.
+
+Suddenly, the bulb makes a loud noise. It pops and goes dark. Sara and Ben stop pulling. They look at the bulb. It does not light up anymore. It is broken. Sara and Ben feel sorry. They broke their favorite toy. They wish they had shared.
+
+They hug each other and say sorry. They put the bulb in the trash. They look for another toy to play with. They find a ball. The ball is round and bouncy. It does not change colors, but it is fun. Sara and Ben decide to play with the ball together. They take turns and share. They do not fight. They have fun. The ball is happy. It likes to be bounced. It seems to smile.
+Jenny and Ben liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. One day, they saw something shiny in the grass. It was a crystal. It was very pretty and sparkly.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Jenny said. "It's a magic crystal!"
+
+"Can I see?" Ben asked. He reached for the crystal.
+
+"Be careful!" Jenny said. "It might break or hurt you. It has sharp edges."
+
+Jenny held the crystal in her hand. She felt a warm and tingly feeling. She wondered what the crystal could do. Maybe it could make wishes come true. She closed her eyes and wished for a big ice cream cone.
+
+Suddenly, she heard a loud honk. She opened her eyes and saw a truck coming towards them. The truck was very big and fast. It was driving on the grass. It did not see Jenny and Ben.
+
+"Watch out!" Ben shouted. He grabbed Jenny's hand and pulled her away. They ran to the side of the park. The truck zoomed past them and crashed into a tree.
+
+Jenny and Ben were scared and shocked. They looked at each other. They were safe, but the crystal was gone. It had fallen out of Jenny's hand when they ran. It was under the truck's wheel. It was smashed into pieces.
+
+Jenny felt sad and angry. She wanted her ice cream cone. She wanted her magic crystal. She cried and stomped her feet.
+
+"It's okay, Jenny," Ben said. He hugged her and wiped her tears. "It was just a crystal. It was not magic. You can't wish for things like that. You have to work for them."
+
+"Really?" Jenny asked. She sniffed and looked at Ben.
+
+"Really," Ben said. He smiled and pointed to the ice cream truck. It was parked near the park. It had a sign that said "Free ice cream for kids today!"
+
+"Look, Jenny," Ben said. "There's your ice cream cone. You don't need a magic crystal. You just need a friend."
+
+Jenny smiled and nodded. She took Ben's hand and walked to the ice cream truck. They got their ice cream cones and licked them happily. They forgot about the crystal. They were glad they had each other. They were careful and happy.
+Sara was sad. She fell down and hurt her knee. It was red and sore. She cried and cried. Mama came and hugged her. She said, "Don't worry, my sweet. I will make it better."
+
+Mama took Sara to the bathroom. She washed her knee with water and soap. She put some cream on it. The cream was white and soft. It made Sara's knee feel cool and calm. Sara smiled a little. Mama said, "The cream will help your knee heal. It will protect it from germs and dirt."
+
+Mama put a band-aid on Sara's knee. She kissed it gently. She said, "There you go. You are very brave, my love. Now, let's go and find your teddy bear. He will comfort you too."
+
+Sara nodded. She loved her teddy bear. He was brown and fuzzy. He had a red bow tie. He was her best friend. He was always loyal to her. He never left her side. He always listened to her stories and secrets. He always cuddled with her at night.
+
+Sara and Mama went to the living room. They found teddy bear on the couch. Sara ran to him and hugged him. She said, "Teddy, I missed you. I hurt my knee, but Mama and cream made it better. Do you want to see?" She showed him her band-aid. Teddy nodded. He said, "I'm sorry you hurt your knee, Sara. But I'm glad you are better. You are very strong, Sara. I'm proud of you."
+
+Sara smiled. She felt happy. She said, "Thank you, teddy. You are very kind, teddy. I love you." She kissed him on the nose. She said, "Let's go and play, teddy. We can have a tea party with Mama and the dolls. Do you want to?" Teddy nodded. He said, "Yes, Sara. I would love to. Let's go and have fun."
+
+Sara and teddy went to the kitchen. Mama was waiting for them. She had a tray with cups and plates and cookies. She said, "Hello, Sara and teddy. Are you ready for a tea party?" Sara and teddy said, "Yes, Mama. We are ready." They sat down and enjoyed their tea party. They laughed and talked and shared. They were happy and grateful. They learned that when you are hurt or sad, you can always find comfort in your family and friends. They learned that when you are loyal and kind, you can always make others happy and proud. They learned that when you have cream and band-aid, you can always heal and play.
+Lila and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the woods. One day, they saw a hut. It was small and old. They wanted to see inside.
+
+"Let's go in," Ben said. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+Lila was scared. She shook her head. "No, Ben. It looks dark and dirty. Maybe there is a monster inside."
+
+Ben laughed. "Don't be silly, Lila. There is no monster. Come on, it will be fun."
+
+He ran to the hut and opened the door. Lila followed him. She did not want to be alone.
+
+Inside the hut, it was dark and dirty. There were spiders and rats. There were also some old things. Ben saw a shiny thing. It was a knife.
+
+"Look, Lila. I found a knife. It is shiny and sharp. I am proud of it. I can use it to cut things."
+
+He picked up the knife and waved it around. Lila was scared. She backed away.
+
+"Ben, be careful. You can hurt yourself or me. Put the knife down."
+
+Ben did not listen. He was having fun. He ran to Lila and tried to cut her hair.
+
+"Stop, Ben. Stop. You are not nice. You are mean."
+
+Lila cried and pushed him away. Ben fell down. The knife stabbed him in the chest. He screamed and bled. Lila was shocked. She ran out of the hut and called for help.
+
+But it was too late. Ben died. Lila was sad and sorry. She wished she never went to the hut. She wished Ben never found the knife. She wished they were still friends.
+Sam and Mia are twins. They like to help Mom with grocery. Mom gives them a list of things to get. Sam and Mia each take a basket and go to different aisles.
+
+Sam finds apples, bananas, and oranges. He puts them in his basket. He sees a big cake with frosting and sprinkles. He wants the cake, but it is not on the list. He thinks Mom will be mad if he takes the cake. He keeps walking and finds bread and milk. He puts them in his basket too.
+
+Mia finds eggs, cheese, and yogurt. She puts them in her basket. She sees a bag of candy with colorful wrappers. She wants the candy, but it is not on the list. She thinks Mom will be happy if she takes the candy. She puts the candy in her basket too.
+
+Sam and Mia meet at the checkout. They show Mom their baskets. Mom looks at the list and smiles at Sam. She says, "Good job, Sam. You got everything we need." She looks at Mia and frowns. She says, "Mia, what is this? We don't need candy. Put it back."
+
+Mia feels sad. She likes candy. She does not want to put it back. She says, "But Mom, I want the candy. Please, can I keep it?"
+
+Mom shakes her head. She says, "No, Mia. Candy is not good for you. You can have a fruit instead. Come on, let's go."
+
+Mia follows Mom. She puts the candy back. She thinks it is tough to say no to candy. She wishes she was like Sam. He always does what Mom says. She hopes Mom will still love her. She hugs Mom and says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I love you."
+
+Mom hugs Mia back. She says, "I love you too, Mia. I know it is tough to say no to candy. But you did the right thing. You are a good girl." She gives Mia an apple and a kiss. She says, "Let's go home and make a yummy lunch."
+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big pastry on the table. It looked yummy and sweet.
+
+"Can we have some pastry, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not now, dear. That pastry is for Grandma's birthday. We will go to her house later and share it with her," Mom said.
+
+But Lily and Tom did not listen. They wanted to eat the pastry now. They climbed on the chairs and reached for the pastry. They took a big bite each.
+
+"Wow, this is so good!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Lily agreed.
+
+But then they saw something on the pastry. It was a mark. A big, red mark. It looked like a heart.
+
+"Who made this mark?" Lily wondered.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe Mom did. Maybe she loves Grandma very much," Tom guessed.
+
+But they were wrong. The mark was not made by Mom. It was made by Max, their dog. He had sneaked into the kitchen and licked the pastry. He liked it too. He thought it was a treat for him. He left his tongue mark on the pastry.
+
+Mom came back to the kitchen. She saw Lily and Tom with pastry crumbs on their faces. She saw the mark on the pastry. She was very angry.
+
+"What did you do? You ate the pastry for Grandma! And look at this mark! It's from Max! How silly of you! How silly of him!" Mom scolded.
+
+Lily and Tom felt bad. They knew they had done something wrong. They said sorry to Mom. They said sorry to Max. They said sorry to Grandma.
+
+Mom was still mad, but she loved them. She said they had to make a new pastry for Grandma. She said they had to help her. She said they had to be good.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They wanted to make Mom happy. They wanted to make Grandma happy. They wanted to make a new pastry. They hoped it would be yummy and sweet. They hoped it would not have any marks.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the pool. They had a lot of fun splashing and swimming and laughing. But one day, they had a big fight. It started when Lily found a sweet candy in her bag and wanted to eat it. Ben saw the candy and wanted it too.
+
+"Give me the candy, Lily!" Ben said.
+
+"No, it's mine! I found it!" Lily said.
+
+They both pulled and tugged on the candy, but it did not break. They got angry and started to yell and push each other. They forgot about the pool and the fun.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom said. She came out of the house and saw them fighting. She was not happy. She took the candy away from them and put it in the trash. "You can't have the candy if you can't share. And you can't play in the pool if you can't be nice. Go to your rooms and think about what you did."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad and sorry. They did not want to lose the candy or the pool. They did not want to lose their friend. They went to their rooms and cried.
+
+After a while, they heard a knock on the door. It was Mom. She had a surprise for them. She had two new candies, one for each of them. They were bigger and sweeter than the old one.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom," Lily said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom," Ben said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily said.
+
+They hugged and smiled. They thanked Mom for the candies and asked if they could play in the pool again.
+
+"Of course you can, but only if you promise to share and be nice," Mom said.
+
+"We promise, Mom," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They ran to the pool and jumped in. They had a lot of fun splashing and swimming and laughing. They shared their candies and their friend. They learned a lesson that day. Fighting is not sweet, but sharing is.
+Sara and Tom like to play with their toys. They have a toy camera and a toy bow and arrow. They pretend to be reporters and hunters.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their mom. They see a big tree with many birds. Sara says, "Let's record the birds with the camera. Maybe we can see them sing and fly."
+
+Tom says, "OK, but I want to shoot the birds with the arrow. Maybe I can catch one and keep it as a pet."
+
+Sara says, "No, Tom, that's not nice. The birds are happy in the tree. You can't hurt them with the arrow."
+
+Tom says, "But it's fun. It's just a toy arrow. It won't hurt them much."
+
+Sara says, "No, Tom, it's not fun. It's mean. The birds are not toys. They are normal animals. They have feelings and families. You have to be kind to them."
+
+Tom says, "Fine, Sara, I won't shoot the birds. But can I shoot something else? Maybe a can or a flower?"
+
+Sara says, "OK, Tom, you can shoot something else. But not too hard. And not too close. And not at people or animals. And be careful with the arrow. It can still poke someone."
+
+Tom says, "OK, Sara, I will be careful. And you can record the birds. Maybe we can watch them later and learn their names and sounds."
+
+Sara says, "OK, Tom, that sounds good. Let's play together and have fun. And let's share the camera and the bow and arrow."
+
+They hug and smile. They play with their toys and enjoy the park. Their mom watches them and is proud of them. She thinks they are good and smart children. She loves them very much.
+Anna likes to play with her dolls. She has a big dollhouse with many rooms and things. She likes to pretend that she is the mom and the dolls are her children. She gives them names and clothes and hugs.
+
+One day, Anna decides to make a tea party for her dolls. She finds a small pot and some cups and spoons in the kitchen. She fills the pot with water and puts it on the table. She says, "I will serve you some tea, my dear children. You must be thirsty and hungry."
+
+She picks up one of the dolls and holds it in her arms. She says, "This is Lily. She is my oldest daughter. She is very good and smart. She helps me with the chores and the baby." She puts Lily on a chair and gives her a cup of tea. She says, "Here you go, Lily. Drink your tea and be careful. It is hot."
+
+She picks up another doll and says, "This is Ben. He is my son. He is very brave and strong. He likes to play with cars and balls. He makes me laugh a lot." She puts Ben on another chair and gives him a cup of tea. She says, "Here you go, Ben. Drink your tea and have fun. It is sweet."
+
+She picks up the last doll and says, "This is Rose. She is my baby. She is very cute and soft. She likes to sleep and cuddle. She makes me happy all the time." She puts Rose on her lap and gives her a spoon of tea. She says, "Here you go, Rose. Drink your tea and be quiet. It is yummy."
+
+Anna looks at her dolls and smiles. She says, "I love you, my children. You are the best. Thank you for being with me." She kisses each of them on the cheek and hugs them.
+
+Suddenly, she hears a voice behind her. It is her mom. She says, "Anna, what are you doing? You made a mess in the kitchen. You spilled water and sugar everywhere. And you took my pot and cups without asking. That is not nice."
+
+Anna turns around and sees her mom. She feels scared and sad. She says, "I'm sorry, mom. I was playing with my dolls. I wanted to serve them some tea. They are my children. I love them."
+
+Her mom looks at her and sighs. She says, "I know, Anna. I know you love your dolls. And I love you. But you have to be careful and respectful. You have to ask before you take things. And you have to clean up after you play. That is the right thing to do."
+
+Anna nods and says, "Okay, mom. I understand. I will ask and clean up. I will be good." She gets up and puts the pot and cups back in the kitchen. She wipes the table and the floor with a cloth. She says, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, dolls. I hope you enjoyed the tea."
+
+Her mom smiles and says, "It's okay, Anna. I forgive you. And I'm sure your dolls do too. You are a good girl. And a good mom. Come here and give me a hug."
+
+Anna runs to her mom and hugs her. She says, "I love you, mom. You are the best. Thank you for being with me." She kisses her mom on the cheek and holds her thumb. She feels happy and warm.
+Tom was a shy boy who did not like to talk to new people. He had long hair that covered his eyes and ears. His mom said he needed to go to the barber and get a haircut. Tom did not want to go. He was scared of the barber and his scissors.
+
+The next day, his mom took him to the barber shop. Tom held his mom's hand and hid behind her. The barber was a friendly man who smiled and said hello. He asked Tom to sit on a big chair and put a cape around him. Tom felt nervous and wanted to run away.
+
+The barber tried to make Tom feel better. He told him jokes and stories and showed him pictures of different haircuts. He asked Tom what kind of haircut he wanted. Tom did not say anything. He just looked down and shook his head.
+
+The barber decided to give Tom a simple and neat haircut. He gently combed and cut Tom's hair, making sure not to hurt him. He talked to Tom softly and praised him for being brave. He said Tom had beautiful hair and eyes.
+
+When the barber was done, he showed Tom his new haircut in a mirror. Tom looked at himself and was surprised. He could see his face and ears clearly. He looked like a big boy. He felt happy and proud. He smiled and said thank you to the barber. He gave him a hug and a tip. He sprang off the chair and ran to his mom. He showed her his haircut and said he liked it. His mom hugged him and said he looked handsome. She said she was proud of him for going to the barber. Tom felt shy but happy. He said he liked the barber and wanted to go again.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. Tom has a big black car that can speed very fast. Sam has a small red car that can turn very well.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their cars. They find a wide path that is good for racing. They decide to have a race to see who has the best car.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Tom says and pushes his black car hard. His car speeds ahead of Sam's red car. Tom thinks he will win the race.
+
+But Sam does not give up. He sees a curve in the path. He knows his red car can turn better than Tom's black car. He waits for the right moment and then turns his red car sharply. He passes Tom's black car on the inside of the curve.
+
+"Wow, you are good at turning!" Tom says and tries to catch up with Sam. But Sam is too fast. He reaches the end of the path first and wins the race.
+
+"Yay, I won!" Sam says and lifts his red car in the air. He is very happy.
+
+"Good job, Sam!" Tom says and smiles. He is not sad. He is proud of his friend. He gives him a high five.
+
+They hug and laugh. They are still friends. They love to play with cars.
+One day, a boy and his dad went to the farm. They wanted to see the animals and help with the work. The boy liked the cows, the pigs, and the chickens. He also liked the mule, who was big and brown and had long ears.
+
+"Can I ride the mule, dad?" the boy asked.
+
+"Sure, son, but be careful. The mule can be bad sometimes. He can kick and bite and run away," dad said.
+
+Dad helped the boy climb on the mule's back. The boy held on to the mule's mane. He felt happy and brave.
+
+"Hi, mule. You are my friend. Let's go for a ride," the boy said.
+
+But the mule did not like the boy. He did not want to be his friend. He did not want to go for a ride. He wanted to be alone. He was a bad mule.
+
+The mule started to shake his head and snort. He started to buck and jump. He started to run fast and wild.
+
+"Whoa, mule, whoa! Stop, mule, stop!" the boy cried.
+
+But the mule did not stop. He ran and ran until he reached the fence. He tried to jump over the fence, but he was too big and heavy. He hit the fence and fell down. The boy flew off the mule's back and landed on the grass.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" the boy said.
+
+Dad ran to the boy and picked him up. He hugged him and checked him for hurts. He was glad the boy was not badly hurt.
+
+"I'm sorry, son. Are you okay?" dad asked.
+
+"I'm okay, dad. But the mule is bad. He is not my friend. He is mean," the boy said.
+
+"I know, son. The mule is bad. He needs to learn to be nice. Maybe we can try again another day, with a different mule. Come on, let's go home," dad said.
+
+The boy nodded and smiled. He still liked the farm, but he did not like the bad mule. He liked his dad, who was his best friend. He liked his home, where he felt safe and warm.
+One day, a farmer went to his field to plant some seeds. He had a big bag of seeds that he carried on his back. He walked and walked until he found a good spot to dig. He put his bag down and took out his shovel.
+
+As he was digging, he heard a loud roar behind him. He turned around and saw a big lion coming out of the woods. The lion had sharp teeth and claws and looked very hungry. The farmer was frightened and dropped his shovel. He ran away as fast as he could, but the lion was faster.
+
+"Help! Help!" the farmer shouted. "There is a lion chasing me!"
+
+He hoped that someone would hear him and come to save him. But no one did. The lion caught up with him and jumped on him. The farmer screamed and tried to fight back, but it was no use. The lion bit him and dragged him to the woods.
+
+The bag of seeds was left on the ground. The wind blew and scattered some of the seeds. The next day, some birds came and ate the rest of the seeds. No one ever saw the farmer again.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Lily were friends who liked to read books. They went to the library and picked some books they wanted to read. Tom chose a book about animals with horns, like cows and goats and rhinos. Lily chose a book about fairies and magic.
+
+They sat on a big couch and opened their books. Tom pointed at a picture of a rhino and said, "Look, Lily, this animal has a big horn on its nose. It is very strong and can run fast. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily looked at the picture and shook her head. She said, "No, Tom, I don't like it. It is ugly and scary. It has no wings or sparkles. It is boring. Fairies are much better. They are pretty and kind and can do magic. Look, this fairy has a wand and a crown and a dress. Do you like it?"
+
+Tom looked at the picture and shook his head. He said, "No, Lily, I don't like it. It is silly and fake. It has no fur or teeth or claws. It is weak. Animals are much better. They are real and smart and can do things. Look, this animal has a long horn on its head. It is called a unicorn. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily looked at the picture and smiled. She said, "Yes, Tom, I like it. It is beautiful and magical. It has a horn and wings and sparkles. It is special. Maybe it is a fairy animal. Can we read more about it?"
+
+Tom smiled too. He said, "Yes, Lily, we can. Maybe it is an animal fairy. Let's read more about it and see what it can do."
+
+They turned the page and read more about the unicorn. They learned that it was a kind and gentle creature that could fly and heal with its horn. They also learned that it was very rare and shy and only showed itself to those who were pure and good. They wondered if they would ever see one in real life.
+
+They read and read until it was time to go home. They put their books back and said goodbye to the librarian. They walked out of the library holding hands. They were happy that they had found a book that they both liked. They were not ignorant anymore. They had learned something new and made each other happy. They were good friends.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to climb the trees and swing on the branches. They saw a big tree with wide branches. They wanted to go up and see the birds.
+
+"Let's climb this tree!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Tom said.
+
+They climbed the tree and reached the top. They saw many birds and nests. They heard the birds sing. They felt happy.
+
+"Look, there is a blue bird!" Lily said.
+
+"Wow, it is so pretty!" Tom said.
+
+They watched the blue bird for a long time. They forgot to watch the time. They forgot to watch their mom. They forgot to watch the sky.
+
+The sky became dark and cloudy. The wind became strong and cold. The rain started to fall. The tree started to shake.
+
+"Uh-oh, we have to go down!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Lily said.
+
+They tried to climb down the tree. But the branches were slippery and wet. They could not hold on. They fell from the tree. They hurt themselves. They cried.
+
+Their mom heard their cries. She ran to the tree. She saw them on the ground. She was scared and angry.
+
+"What were you doing up there?" she asked.
+
+"We were watching the blue bird!" Lily said.
+
+"We forgot to watch the time!" Tom said.
+
+"You forgot to watch the time? You forgot to watch me? You forgot to watch the weather? You were very naughty and foolish! You could have been hurt very badly!" she said.
+
+She picked them up and took them home. She cleaned their wounds and gave them medicine. She did not give them hugs or kisses. She did not let them play or watch TV. She made them go to bed early. They felt sad and sorry. They wished they had not forgotten.
+Lily wanted to run fast with her friends. She put on her shoes and tied them. But her shoes were too big. They flopped and slipped when she moved. She felt sad and angry.
+
+"Mom, these shoes are bad! They don't fit me!" she cried.
+
+Mom came and looked at her shoes. She smiled and hugged Lily.
+
+"Sweetie, these are not your shoes. These are your brother's shoes. He is older and bigger than you. You need your own shoes that fit you well."
+
+Mom took Lily to her room and found her shoes. They were pink and shiny. They had stars and flowers on them. Lily liked them a lot. She put them on and they fit her perfectly.
+
+"Thank you, Mom! These shoes are good! They fit me!" she said.
+
+Mom kissed her and said, "You're welcome, Lily. Now you can run fast with your friends. Have fun and be careful."
+
+Lily ran outside and joined her friends. They played tag and raced and laughed. Lily was happy and proud. She ran fast with her shoes that fit her.
+Tom was a lonely cat. He lived in a big house with many rooms, but he had no friends to play with. He liked to watch the birds and the bugs outside the window, but he could not catch them. He wished he had someone to match his paw with.
+
+One day, he heard a soft meow from the basement. He was curious, so he went down the stairs to see who it was. He saw a small kitten hiding behind a box. The kitten was scared and hungry. Tom felt sorry for the kitten, so he went closer and said, "Hello, I am Tom. Who are you?"
+
+The kitten peeked out and said, "I am Lily. I ran away from a bad place. I have no home and no friends. I am lonely."
+
+Tom smiled and said, "You can stay with me. I have a home and I can be your friend. I am lonely too. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily nodded and came out of the box. She saw Tom's paw and said, "Your paw is big and fluffy. It looks like mine, but bigger. Can I match your paw with mine?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, you can. That is how we can show we are friends. Come, let us go upstairs and find some food and toys. We can have fun together."
+
+Lily and Tom matched their paws and went upstairs. They ate some fish and milk, and played with a ball and a string. They were happy and not lonely anymore. They learned that sharing and caring can make new friends.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the park. They see a big slide. Anna wants to go on the slide. Ben is scared.
+
+"Come on, Ben. The slide is fun. You can do it," Anna says.
+
+"No, Anna. The slide is too high. I don't want to go," Ben says.
+
+Anna goes on the slide. She slides down fast. She laughs. She feels the heat from the sun on her face. She is happy.
+
+"Look, Ben. I did it. It was not difficult. You can try too," Anna says.
+
+Ben looks at the slide. He sees Anna. She is smiling. He wants to be brave. He wants to make Anna happy. He climbs up the slide. He sits on the top. He is scared.
+
+"Go, Ben. Go. You can do it," Anna says.
+
+Ben closes his eyes. He slides down. He feels the wind on his hair. He feels the heat from the slide on his legs. He is surprised. He opens his eyes. He is at the bottom. He is safe.
+
+"Wow, Ben. You did it. You are brave. I am proud of you," Anna says.
+
+She runs to Ben. She hugs him. She applauds. Ben smiles. He hugs her back. He applauds too. They are happy. They are friends.
+Lila and Ben are twins. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big swamp near their house. They want to go and look.
+
+"Can we go to the swamp, Mom?" Lila asks.
+
+"Only if you are careful and stay close to me," Mom says. "The swamp can be dangerous. There are many animals and plants that you don't know."
+
+Lila and Ben nod. They follow Mom to the swamp. They see green water and brown mud. They hear frogs and birds. They smell something bad.
+
+"What is that?" Ben asks, pointing to a big green thing.
+
+"That is an alligator," Mom says. "It is a big animal that lives in the swamp. It has sharp teeth and a long tail. It can be very loud and fast. You should not go near it."
+
+Lila and Ben learn a new word. They say it together. "Alligator."
+
+They see another big green thing. It has a round head and a long neck. It is eating some plants.
+
+"What is that?" Lila asks, pointing to the other thing.
+
+"That is a turtle," Mom says. "It is another animal that lives in the swamp. It has a hard shell and four legs. It can be very quiet and slow. You can look at it, but don't touch it."
+
+Lila and Ben learn another new word. They say it together. "Turtle."
+
+They see many other things in the swamp. They learn many new words. They have fun. But they also listen to Mom. They are careful and stay close to her. They know the swamp can be dangerous. But they also know the swamp can be beautiful.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the bathtub. They had many toys to make bubbles and splash. Lily saw a big bottle of shampoo on the shelf. She wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Look, Ben, shampoo!" she said. She reached out her hand and grabbed the bottle. She opened the cap and squeezed. A lot of white foam came out.
+
+"Wow, shampoo is interesting!" she said. She rubbed the foam on her hair and face. She felt very funny and laughed.
+
+Ben wanted to try too. He grabbed another bottle of shampoo. He opened the cap and squeezed. But his shampoo was not white. It was purple and smelled like grapes.
+
+"Wow, shampoo is different!" he said. He rubbed the purple foam on his hair and face. He felt very silly and laughed.
+
+Mom heard them laughing and came to check. She saw them covered in foam and shampoo. She was not angry, but she was surprised.
+
+"What are you doing, Lily and Ben?" she asked. "You are making a big mess!"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at Mom and smiled. They showed her their shampoo bottles.
+
+"We are playing with shampoo, Mom!" they said. "Shampoo is fun!"
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they fight. One morning, they want to play with the same toy car. Tom grabs the car first, and Lily gets angry.
+
+"Give me the car!" Lily says. "It is my turn!"
+
+"No, it is mine!" Tom says. "You had it yesterday!"
+
+They pull and push the car, and it breaks. They hear a loud snap, and see a wheel fall off. They both feel sad and sorry.
+
+Mom hears the noise, and comes to their room. She sees the broken car, and the twins' faces.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asks.
+
+Tom and Lily tell Mom what they did. Mom is not happy. She warns them.
+
+"You need to share and be nice to each other. The car was important. It was a gift from Grandma. Now it is ruined. How do you think Grandma will feel?"
+
+Tom and Lily feel bad. They say sorry to Mom, and to each other. They hug and make up.
+
+Mom smiles, and hugs them too. She says she will try to fix the car, but they have to be careful with their toys. She says she loves them, and they love her too.
+
+They learn their lesson, and promise to play nicely. They go to the kitchen, and have breakfast together. They hope Grandma will not be too sad. They decide to make her a card, and say thank you for the car.
+Lily liked to play with her friends at school. She was popular because she was kind and funny. She liked to share her toys and tell jokes. She also liked to answer questions from her teacher. She knew a lot of things, like the names of animals and colors.
+
+One day, her teacher asked the class, "What is the biggest animal in the world?" Lily raised her hand and said, "The whale!" The teacher smiled and said, "That's right, Lily. The whale is the biggest animal in the world. How did you know that?" Lily said, "I saw a picture of a whale in a book. It was very big and blue. It had a tail and a spout."
+
+The teacher said, "That's very good, Lily. You are very smart. Do you want to show the class the picture of the whale?" Lily nodded and ran to her backpack. She took out the book and opened it to the page with the whale. She showed it to the class and said, "Look, this is the whale. It lives in the water. It can swim and sing."
+
+The class clapped and said, "Wow, Lily. That's a cool whale. You are awesome." Lily felt happy and proud. She thanked the teacher and the class. She put the book back in her backpack and went back to her seat. Her best friend, Ben, gave her a hug and said, "You are my favorite friend, Lily. You are so smart and nice. I like you a lot." Lily hugged him back and said, "You are my favorite friend, too, Ben. You are so fun and sweet. I like you a lot, too." They smiled and held hands. They were happy and popular.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play outside after dinner. One night, they see many stars in the sky. They point at the stars and say their names.

+
+"And that is the Little Bear!" Mia says. She admires the small star that is the bear's tail.

+
+Then, they see a big ball of yarn. The yarn is white and soft. Mia and Leo have an idea.

+
+They tie many ribbons around the yarn. They make a colorful ball. They roll it and bounce it. They laugh and play. They are happy.
+Lily was very sick. She had a bad cough and a high fever. Her mom and dad took her to the hospital. There, a nice doctor gave her some medicine and a band-aid. He said she had to stay in a bed for a few days.
+
+Lily did not like the hospital. She missed her home and her toys. She cried and kicked the blankets. She did not want to eat or drink. She said, "I want to go home!"
+
+Her mom and dad tried to cheer her up. They read her stories and played games with her. They brought her a teddy bear and a balloon. They said, "Lily, you have to be brave and patient. The medicine will make you better soon. Then you can go home and play with your friends."

+
+Sara feels a shock. She does not understand. She loves her duck toy. She does not want to leave it alone. She starts to cry again.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Don't worry, Sara. Your duck toy is not sad. It is just a toy. It does not feel anything. It will be dry and clean tomorrow. You can have another toy to sleep with. How about your bear?"

+Tom is a little boy who likes to play with his toys. He has many cars, trains, and planes that he keeps in his big box. He likes to make them zoom and crash and fly on the floor.
+
+One day, he goes to the park with his mom and sees another boy playing with a toy robot. The robot has a shiny head and makes funny noises. Tom wants the robot very much. He thinks it is the best toy ever.
+
+He goes to the boy and says, "Can I play with your robot?" The boy says, "No, this is my robot. Go away." Tom feels angry and sad. He waits until the boy is not looking and then grabs the robot and runs away. He thinks he is very clever.
+
+But the boy sees him and shouts, "Hey, you stole my robot! Give it back!" He runs after Tom and tries to catch him. Tom runs faster and faster, but he trips on a rock and falls down. The robot flies out of his hand and breaks into pieces.
+
+Tom starts to cry. He feels sorry and scared. He says, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just wanted to play with your robot. Please don't be mad at me." The boy comes to him and looks at the broken robot. He feels sad and angry. He says, "You are a bad boy. You broke my robot. It was my favorite toy. How could you do that?"
+
+Tom's mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the broken robot and the two boys crying. She says, "What happened here? Who did this?" The boy says, "He stole my robot and broke it. He is a thief and a liar." Tom says, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break it. I just wanted to play with it."
+
+Tom's mom feels sorry for both boys. She says, "Tom, you did a very bad thing. You should not steal other people's toys. You should ask nicely and share. And you should not run away with them. You could hurt yourself or others. You should say sorry to the boy and give him a hug. And you should help him fix his robot or buy him a new one."
+
+Tom feels ashamed and sorry. He says, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I won't do it again. Can we be friends?" He gives the boy a hug and says, "I'm sorry for breaking your robot. It was very cool. Can I help you fix it or buy you a new one?" The boy feels a little better and says, "It's okay, I forgive you. Maybe we can be friends. But you have to be nice and honest. And you have to play with your own toys or ask me first."
+
+Tom's mom smiles and says, "That's very good, boys. I'm proud of you. You learned a very important lesson today. Stealing is bad and sharing is good. And friends are better than toys. Now let's go home and see what we can do about the robot." She takes Tom's hand and the boy's hand and walks with them to the car. Tom and the boy talk and laugh and play with their own toys on the way. They are happy and sorry and friends.
+Lily was a spoiled girl who always wanted more toys. She did not like to share with her brother Tom or her friends. One day, she saw a big, shiny ambulance parked outside her house. She ran to it and tried to open the door.
+
+"Stop, Lily!" Tom shouted. "That is not your toy! That is for people who are sick or hurt!"
+
+But Lily did not listen. She pulled hard on the door handle and stretched her arm. She wanted to see what was inside the ambulance. She did not care if someone needed it.
+
+Suddenly, the door opened and Lily fell to the ground. She hit her head on a rock and started to cry. She felt a lot of pain and blood came out of her head. Tom ran to her and called for help.
+

+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her fan. She had a big fan and a small fan. She liked to make the fan go fast and slow. She liked to feel the wind on her face and hair.
+
+One day, she took her small fan to the park. She wanted to show it to her friend Ben. Ben was a little boy who liked to play with cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is my fan," Lily said. "It can make wind. Do you want to try?"
+
+Ben looked at the fan. He did not understand what it was. He had never seen a fan before. He thought it was a strange toy.
+
+"What is a fan?" Ben asked. "How does it make wind?"
+
+Lily smiled. She wanted to teach Ben about the fan. She showed him how to turn it on and off. She showed him how to change the speed. She showed him how to hold it close and far.
+
+"A fan is a thing that spins," Lily explained. "It has blades that move the air. The air is the wind. You can feel it on your skin. It is cool and nice."
+
+Ben listened to Lily. He tried to understand what she said. He touched the fan. He felt the wind. He liked it. He smiled.
+
+"I see," Ben said. "A fan is a cool toy. Can I play with it?"
+

+
+One day, Tommy went to the park with his mom. He saw a big slide and wanted to try it. He ran to the slide with his bear in his arms. He climbed up the ladder and sat on the top.
+
+"Are you ready, bear?" he asked. "We are going to have so much fun!"
+
+But then he heard a voice behind him. It was a girl with a fancy dress and a bow in her hair. She looked angry.
+
+"Hey, you can't go on the slide with that!" she said. "That's a baby toy! You have to leave it here!"
+
+Tommy felt scared and sad. He didn't want to leave his bear. He loved his bear.
+
+"No, I don't!" he said. "This is my bear and he can go on the slide with me!"
+
+The girl snorted. "Well, then I won't allow you to go on the slide at all!" she said. "This is my slide and you have to do what I say!"
+
+She reached for Tommy's bear and tried to pull it away. Tommy held on tight and shouted.
+
+"Stop it! Leave me and my bear alone!"
+
+Mom heard Tommy's shout and came to see what was wrong. She saw the girl and Tommy fighting over the bear. She frowned and walked over to them.
+
+"What's going on here?" she asked.
+
+The girl pointed at Tommy and his bear. "He wants to go on the slide with that stupid toy!" she said. "But I won't let him! He has to give it to me!"
+
+Mom looked at Tommy and his bear. She smiled and shook her head.
+
+"That's not a stupid toy, that's a very special bear," she said. "And Tommy can go on the slide with it if he wants to. It's not your slide, it's for everyone to share. You can't tell him what to do or take his bear away. That's not nice."
+
+The girl pouted and crossed her arms. She didn't like what Mom said. She turned away and stomped off.
+
+Mom hugged Tommy and his bear. "Are you okay, sweetie?" she asked.
+
+Tommy nodded and smiled. "Yes, Mom, I'm okay," he said. "Thank you for helping me and my bear."
+
+Mom kissed Tommy and his bear. "You're welcome, honey," she said. "Now, do you still want to go on the slide?"
+
+Tommy looked at his bear and then at the slide. He felt brave and happy. He nodded and said.
+
+"Yes, Mom, I do. Come on, bear, let's go!"
+
+He slid down the slide with his bear in his arms. He laughed and cheered. He had so much fun. He loved his bear very much. He took it everywhere with him. His bear was his best friend.
+Tom and Mia are best friends. They like to play in the park with their toys. One day, they see a big truck with a picture of an elephant on it. They run to the truck and look inside.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Tom says. "It is an elephant!"
+
+Mia nods. She has never seen an elephant before. It is very big and gray. It has a long nose and big ears. It looks amazing.
+
+The elephant sees Tom and Mia. It makes a loud noise with its nose. Tom and Mia are scared. They hide behind the truck.
+
+"Shh, don't make any noise," Mia whispers to Tom. "Maybe it will go away."
+
+Tom whispers back, "Do you think it is friendly?"
+
+"I don't know," Mia whispers. "Maybe we can give it some food."
+
+They look around and see some apples and bananas on a table. They take some and sneak back to the truck. They hold the food out to the elephant.
+
+The elephant smells the food. It reaches out its nose and takes the apples and bananas. It eats them and makes a happy noise. It looks at Tom and Mia and winks.
+
+Tom and Mia smile. They are not scared anymore. They think the elephant is nice. They touch its nose and ears. The elephant lets them.
+
+"Hello, elephant," Tom says. "We are Tom and Mia. What is your name?"
+
+The elephant makes a noise that sounds like "Ellie".
+
+"Ellie, that is a good name," Mia says. "We are your friends."
+
+Ellie nods. She likes Tom and Mia. She gives them a ride on her back. They have fun.
+
+The end.
+Ben and Jen are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. Sometimes they share, and sometimes they fight.
+
+One day, Ben finds a tasty cookie in the kitchen. He wants to eat it all by himself. He runs to his room and hides under his bed. He thinks Jen will not find him there.
+
+But Jen smells the cookie. She follows her nose to Ben's room. She sees his feet sticking out from under the bed. She crawls under and sees him holding the cookie.
+
+"Give me some!" she says. "It is not fair. You have a cookie and I have none."
+
+"No!" says Ben. "It is mine. I found it first. Go away!"
+
+He tries to push Jen away, but she grabs his arm. They start to tug and pull. The cookie breaks in half and falls on the floor.
+
+A big dog comes into the room. He sees the cookie and licks his lips. He runs under the bed and gobbles it up.
+
+Ben and Jen are shocked. They look at each other and then at the dog. The dog wags his tail and licks his mouth.
+
+"Bad dog!" they say. "You ate our cookie!"
+
+They poke the dog with their fingers, but he does not care. He is happy and full.
+
+Ben and Jen are sad and hungry. They crawl out from under the bed and hug each other.
+
+"Sorry," they say. "We should have shared."
+
+They go back to the kitchen and look for another cookie. They find one and break it in half. They each take a bite and smile.
+
+"It is tasty," they say. "And better when we share."
+Sara was a good girl who liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She knew how to wash the fruits and cut them with a knife. She was very careful with the knife, because it was sharp and could hurt her. She always listened to her mom and did what she said.
+
+One day, Sara wanted to make a salad for her dad, who was coming home soon. She washed some lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers, and put them in a big bowl. Then she took the knife and started to cut the tomatoes. She was very honest and did not eat any of the juicy red pieces.
+
+But then she heard a loud noise outside. She looked out the window and saw her dad's car in the driveway. She was so happy that she forgot about the knife and ran to the door. She wanted to hug her dad and give him the salad.
+
+She did not see that the knife was still in her hand. She opened the door and jumped into her dad's arms. But the knife was pointing at his chest. It made a hole in his shirt and a red stain. He screamed and dropped Sara on the floor.
+
+Sara was scared and confused. She did not mean to hurt her dad. She only wanted to hug him. She started to cry and said she was sorry. Her mom came and saw what happened. She was shocked and angry. She took the knife from Sara's hand and threw it away. She called for help and tried to stop the blood.

+Tom was a little boy who liked to play in the park. He had a red ball that he threw and caught with his friends. One day, he saw a big tree with many brown things on the ground. He ran to the tree and picked up one of the brown things. It was hard and smooth and had a little hat on top. He asked his friend Sam what it was.
+
+"That is an acorn," Sam said. "It is a seed from the tree. If you plant it in the ground, it can grow into a new tree."
+
+Tom liked the acorn. He wanted to plant it and see a new tree. He looked for a good spot to dig a hole. He saw a patch of dirt near the fence. He ran to the dirt and knelt down. He used his fingers to make a hole. He put the acorn in the hole and covered it with dirt. He was happy. He hoped the acorn would grow soon.
+
+But then he heard a loud bark. He turned around and saw a big dog. The dog was black and white and had sharp teeth. The dog saw Tom and his red ball. The dog wanted the ball.

+
+"It doesn't matter what color it is," Mom says. "It's just a napkin. It does the same job as any other napkin."
+
+Ben still does not want to use the pink napkin. He tries to hide it under his plate.
+
+Lily sees what he is doing. She thinks it is funny. She giggles.

+
+But their mom was smart. She knew they were hiding. She walked quietly to the tree and peeked inside the fort. She saw Ben and Lily munching on their snacks. She smiled and said, "Hello, spies. I have a mission for you. Come with me to the kitchen and help me make some sandwiches. They are even more yummy than cookies."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other. They knew they were caught. They put their snacks away and crawled out of the fort. They followed their mom to the kitchen. They helped her make sandwiches with cheese, ham, and lettuce. They ate them with some carrots and grapes. They agreed that they were more yummy than cookies.

+
+"Look, Sam, I found a box!" Tom said. He pulled out a small metal box from the junk. It had a button on it. "I wonder what it does. Maybe it has a surprise inside."
+
+"I don't know, Tom. It looks unknown. Maybe it is dangerous. Maybe we should not touch it." Sam said. He was scared of the box. He did not trust unknown things.
+
+"Don't be silly, Sam. It is just a box. I want to try it. Maybe it makes a noise or a light. Maybe it gives us candy. Let me try it." Tom said. He was curious about the box. He did not listen to Sam.
+
+He pushed the button on the box. The box made a loud beep. Then it exploded. The junk flew everywhere. Tom and Sam screamed. They were hurt by the junk. They had cuts and bruises on their faces and arms. They cried and cried.

+Anna likes to dress up in her mom's clothes. She finds a big hat, a long scarf, and a shiny necklace in the closet. She puts them on and looks in the mirror. She feels like a princess.
+
+She wants to show her mom how pretty she is. She runs to the living room, where her mom is sitting on the couch. But she runs too fast and the hat falls over her eyes. She can't see where she is going. She bumps into the table and knocks over a vase. The vase breaks and water spills on the floor.
+

+
+She takes off the hat, the scarf, and the necklace. She wipes Anna's tears and kisses her cheek. She says, "You look very pretty in my clothes, but they are too big for you. Why don't we find some clothes that fit you better? And maybe a smaller hat?"

+
+"I see it, Anna, it is a sheep cloud. It is very jolly. Do you think it can talk?" Ben wondered.
+
+"Maybe, let's try. Hello, sheep cloud, can you hear us?" Anna shouted.
+
+The cloud did not answer. It just floated in the sky. Anna and Ben waited for a while. They hoped the cloud would say something.
+

+
+"Or maybe it does not want to talk to us. Maybe it is rude." Anna said.

+
+The cloud heard Anna and Ben. It was curious about them. It decided to talk to them.
+
+"Hello, Anna and Ben. I am the sheep cloud. I am sorry I did not talk to you before. I was shy and busy. I was making rain for the flowers and the trees." The cloud said.
+
+Anna and Ben were surprised and happy. They heard the sheep cloud. It had a soft and gentle voice.

+
+"Let's go to the zoo!" Ben said. "Maybe we can see the penguins. They are funny and cute."
+
+Lily nodded. She liked the penguins too. They always slid on the ice and splashed in the water. She asked their mom if they could go to the zoo.
+
+Mom shook her head. "I'm sorry, kids. The zoo is closed today. The rain is too much. It will spoil the animals' fun. They need to stay inside and be warm and dry."
+
+Ben and Lily were sad. They wanted to see the penguins. They wondered if the penguins were sad too. They decided to draw some pictures of the penguins and pretend they were at the zoo.
+
+They got some paper and crayons and started to draw. They made the penguins black and white and gave them orange beaks and feet. They drew some ice and water and fish for the penguins to eat. They also drew some other animals they liked, like lions and monkeys and elephants.
+
+They showed their pictures to mom. Mom smiled and said they were very good. She said she was proud of them for being creative and not letting the dull day spoil their fun. She gave them some cookies and milk as a treat.
+
+Ben and Lily were happy. They ate their cookies and drank their milk. They looked at their pictures and imagined they were at the zoo. They made some noises like the animals and laughed. They forgot about the rain and had fun.
+Lila liked to play with her blocks. She had many blocks of different colors and shapes. She could make towers and bridges and houses with them. She was very careful with her blocks, because some of them were fragile. Fragile means they can break easily.
+
+One day, Lila wanted to make a big square with her blocks. She took all the red blocks and put them in a line. Then she took all the blue blocks and put them in another line. She did the same with the yellow and green blocks. She had four lines of blocks that made a square.
+
+Lila was very happy with her square. She wanted to show it to her mom. She called her mom and said, "Look, mom, I made a square with my blocks!" But as she said that, she bumped into her square. The fragile blocks fell down and broke. Lila was very sad. Her square was gone.
+
+Her mom came and saw what happened. She hugged Lila and said, "It's okay, honey. You can make another square. Or you can make something else with your blocks. You are very good at playing with your blocks. I'm proud of you."
+
+Lila felt better. She smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you." She picked up the broken blocks and put them in a box. She decided to make a circle with her blocks instead. She hoped it would not end like her square.
+Lily was a daughter who liked to help her mom. One day, mom asked Lily to pick some lemons from the tree. Lily was happy to do it. She took a basket and went to the tree. She saw many yellow lemons. She reached up and picked some. She put them in the basket.
+
+Lily wanted to taste a lemon. She thought it would be sweet like an orange. She took a lemon from the basket and bit it. She made a face. The lemon was not sweet. It was bitter. It made her tongue hurt. She spit out the lemon and said, "Yuck!"
+
+Mom saw Lily and came to her. She asked, "What's wrong, Lily?" Lily showed mom the lemon and said, "This is bitter. It's not good." Mom smiled and said, "Lemons are not for eating like that. They are for making juice or lemonade. They are sour and bitter, but they can be sweet with sugar and water. Do you want to try some lemonade?"
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to try some lemonade. She followed mom to the kitchen. Mom squeezed some lemons and added sugar and water. She poured some lemonade in a cup and gave it to Lily. Lily took a sip. She smiled. The lemonade was sweet and refreshing. She liked it. She said, "Thank you, mom. This is good." Mom hugged Lily and said, "You're welcome, daughter. I'm glad you like it. You are a good helper." Lily hugged mom back and said, "I love you, mom." Mom said, "I love you, too, Lily."

+
+They got a big bag and some gloves. They started to pick up the waste and put it in the bag. They worked hard and fast. They did not see the duck behind them. The duck was angry. The duck thought the waste was his food. He did not like Tim and Pam taking his food.
+
+The duck quacked loudly and bit Tim's leg. Tim screamed and dropped the bag. The waste spilled out. Pam ran to help Tim. The duck chased them. They ran away from the pond.

+"No, she is mine!" Anna says. She pulls the doll back. They struggle for the doll. They are angry.
+
+A man comes to the park. He sees Anna and Ben fighting. He walks to them and says, "Hello, children. What are you doing?"
+
+Anna and Ben stop fighting. They look at the man. He is tall and kind. He has a badge on his shirt. It says, "True Toys".
+
+"We are playing with this doll," Anna says.
+
+"Where did you get her?" the man asks.
+
+"From that box," Ben says. He points to the box.
+
+The man looks at the box. He says, "Oh, I see. That is my box. I work for True Toys. I was going to give these toys to the children's hospital. But I forgot it here. I am sorry."
+
+Anna and Ben feel bad. They did not know the toys were for the sick children. They want to be honest.
+
+"We are sorry, too," Anna says. She gives the doll to the man. "We did not know. We thought the toys were for anyone."
+
+"Me too," Ben says. He gives the man a hug. "Can we help you take the toys to the hospital?"
+
+The man smiles. He says, "That is very nice of you. Yes, you can help me. Thank you, Anna and Ben. You are good friends. And you are honest children."
+Sam and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to look for bugs in the grass and under the rocks. They found ants, beetles, spiders and worms. They put them in a jar and watched them move.
+
+"Look at this one!" Lily said. She pointed to a big green bug with long legs and wings. "It is so fast! It can jump and fly!"
+
+Sam looked at the bug and felt scared. He did not like bugs that could jump and fly. He thought they might bite or sting him. He moved away from the jar.
+
+"Are you scared of the bug?" Lily asked. She smiled and picked up the jar. "Do you dare to touch it?"
+
+Sam shook his head. He did not want to touch the bug. He thought Lily was very brave to hold the jar.
+
+"No, I don't dare to touch it," he said. "You can keep it. I like the ants better. They are small and slow."
+
+Lily laughed. She put the jar down and opened the lid. She let the bug go. It flew away into the air.
+
+"Bye, bug!" she said. "Thank you for playing with us!"
+
+Sam and Lily hugged each other. They were happy to be friends. They did not mind that they liked different bugs. They liked to play together.

+
+"Wow, that is amazing. How does it work?" Tom wonders.
+
+"Well, Sam puts a chip in my ear, and the collar reads my thoughts. Then it translates them into words. It also reads the sheep's thoughts, and tells me what they want. It is a fun work." Rex explains.
+
+Tom is impressed by Rex and his collar. He thinks Rex is very clever and unusual. He wants to learn more about him and his work. He decides to be friends with Rex.

They think they make a good team.
+Anna did not like turkey. She hated it. It was big and brown and dry. She did not want to eat it for dinner. She wanted to eat pizza or macaroni or ice cream.

+
+Anna looked at Mommy. She saw that Mommy was sad. She did not want to make Mommy sad. She loved Mommy. She wanted to make Mommy happy.

+Lily liked to feed the pigeons in the park. She had a bag of bread and she broke it into small pieces. She threw the pieces on the grass and watched the pigeons come and eat. She liked their soft feathers and their cooing sounds.
+
+But one day, a big dog came to the park. He saw the pigeons and he wanted to chase them. He ran towards them, barking and growling. The pigeons were scared and they flew away. They scattered in the sky, leaving the bread behind.
+
+Lily was angry and sad. She loved the pigeons and she did not want the dog to scare them. She shouted at the dog, "Go away, bad dog! Leave the pigeons alone!" But the dog did not listen. He was tough and he did not care.
+
+Lily had an idea. She picked up the bread and threw it at the dog. The bread hit the dog on the nose and the ears and the tail. The dog was surprised and he stopped barking. He did not like the bread. He shook his head and ran away.

+"What are you doing?" Mom says. She is very mad. She picks up Anna and Ben. She puts them on the wall. She makes them sit there. She does not let them play with the blocks.
+
+"You are very naughty," Mom says. "You have to share and be nice. You have to say sorry to each other. You have to stay on the wall until I say so."

+
+"Where is the black crayon?" Anna asks. "We need black for the roof and the door."
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe we lost it. Maybe we can use another color."
+
+"No, we can't," Anna says. "Black is the best color for the roof and the door. It is dark and strong. We have to find it."
+
+They look everywhere for the black crayon. They look under the table, behind the sofa, in the closet, in the drawers. They cannot find it. They are sad and angry.
+

+
+Lily and Ben were surprised. They did not know frogs could talk. They said, "No, thank you. We have to go home soon. Our mommies and daddies will miss us."
+
+The frog said, "But I like you. You are nice and brave. I want to marry you. You can be my queen and king. I will give you all the shiny rocks and funny animals. I am very powerful. I can make anything happen."
+
+Lily and Ben did not want to marry the frog. They wanted to go back to the park. They said, "No, thank you. We are too young to marry. We are only friends. We do not want your shiny rocks and funny animals. We have our own toys and pets. You are powerful, but we are happy."
+
+The frog was sad. He said, "Please, do not leave me. I am lonely. I have no friends. I will be nice to you. I will let you play with anything you want."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for the frog. They said, "We are sorry. We do not want to hurt you. But we cannot stay here. We have to go home. Maybe you can find another friend in the underground. Someone who likes you and wants to marry you."
+
+The frog nodded. He said, "Maybe you are right. Thank you for being kind to me. I will let you go. But please, come back and visit me sometime. I will miss you."
+
+Lily and Ben said, "You are welcome. We will come back and visit you sometime. We will miss you too."

+
+But then, Tom saw a bird in the tree. He wanted to see it better. He took the saw and climbed the tree. Mia was angry. She said, "Tom, come back! We need the saw for our house!"
+
+Tom did not listen. He tried to get closer to the bird. But the bird did not like the saw. It made a loud noise and flew away. Tom was sad. He wanted to see the bird. He started to complain. He said, "The bird is mean. It does not want to be my friend."
+
+Mia heard Tom complain. She felt sorry for him. She was thoughtful. She said, "Tom, I have an idea. Why don't we make a birdhouse instead of a toy house? Then maybe the bird will come back and stay with us."
+
+Tom liked Mia's idea. He said, "That is a good idea, Mia. You are very smart and kind." He climbed down the tree and gave the saw to Mia. They worked together to make a birdhouse. They hung it on the tree. They hoped the bird would like it. They were happy.

+
+They are happy and proud of their tower. They want to make it even higher. They look for more blocks to add.
+
+But then, they see a problem. Their tower has a hole. A block is missing from the middle of their tower. The hole makes their tower weak. Their tower can fall down.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom says. "Our tower has a hole! We need to fix it!"
+
+"How can we fix it?" Mia says. "We have no more blocks to add!"
+
+They think hard. They look around. They see a patch on the floor. The patch is from Tom's old shirt. His mom cut it off because it was torn. The patch is soft and colorful. It has stars and moons on it.
+
+"I have an idea!" Tom says. "We can use this patch to fix our hole!"
+
+He picks up the patch. He climbs on a stool. He reaches for the hole in their tower. He puts the patch over the hole. He presses it hard. The patch sticks to the blocks.
+
+"Wow!" Mia says. "You did it! You fixed our hole! Our tower is strong again!"
+
+They smile and hug. They look at their tower. It is high and beautiful. It has blocks and a patch. It has colors and shapes. It has stars and moons.
+
+They are happy and proud of their tower. They add one more block on top. It is a shiny block. It is a crown for their tower.

+Jill and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to swing, slide and run on the grass. They saw a big rock near a tree. They ran to the rock and climbed on it.
+
+"Look, mom, we are on a rock!" Jill shouted.
+
+"Be careful, don't fall!" mom said.
+
+They pretended the rock was a boat and they were sailing on the sea. They sang a song and waved to the birds. They had fun on the rock.

+
+They try to push the box, but it is too heavy. They try to break the lock, but it is too hard. They try to shake the box, but it is too quiet. They are frustrated and curious.
+
+They decide to sit on the box and think of a plan. They sit and sit and sit. They do not notice that the box starts to move. They do not hear that the lock clicks open. They do not see that the lid lifts up.
+
+Suddenly, the box springs open and a big robot jumps out. It is shiny and has many arms and eyes. It is not a toy. It is real. It looks at Sam and Ben and says, "Hello, I am your new friend. Do you want to play war with me?"

+Sam and Ben are scared and surprised. They scream and run away. They do not want to play war with the robot. They want to play with their toys. They think the box is not mysterious. It is scary. They wish they never found it.
+One day, a little squirrel named Lily wanted to find some nuts to eat. She saw a big tree with many nuts on it. She ran to the tree and started to pick some nuts. She did not see her mother, who was watching her from another tree.
+
+"Lily, be careful!" her mother called. "Do not wander too far from me. There are bad animals in the forest who might hurt you."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She wanted more nuts. She wandered away from the big tree and found another tree with even more nuts. She was very happy and forgot about her mother.
+
+"Hello, little squirrel," a voice said. Lily looked up and saw a big fox. He had sharp teeth and a long tail. He smiled at Lily, but he did not look nice. He looked bad.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asked.
+
+"I am your friend," the fox said. "I have some more nuts for you. Come with me and I will show you."
+
+Lily was curious. She liked nuts. She followed the fox, who led her to a dark hole.
+
+"Here are the nuts," the fox said. "Go inside and take them."
+
+Lily was scared. She did not like the dark hole. She wanted to go back to her mother.
+
+"Wait," she said. "I want to go home."
+
+But the fox did not let her. He blocked the hole with his body. He was not her friend. He was a bad animal who wanted to eat her.
+
+"Help!" Lily cried. "Mother, help!"
+
+Her mother heard her cry. She ran to the hole and saw the fox. She was angry and brave. She bit the fox's tail and made him run away.
+
+She hugged Lily and took her back to the big tree.
+
+"Lily, I am so glad you are safe," she said. "You should never wander away from me. You should never trust bad animals who lie to you. You should always listen to me, because I love you and I want to protect you."
+
+Lily was sorry. She learned her lesson. She thanked her mother and promised to be a good squirrel. She ate some nuts and felt happy. She never wandered away again.
+Anna loved to swim in the sea with her dad. They saw many fish and shells and seaweed. One day, they saw a big octopus. It had eight arms and a round head. It was purple and green and red.
+
+"Hello, octopus," Anna said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The octopus was shy. It did not want to play. It squirted ink and hid behind a rock.
+
+"Dad, why did the octopus do that?" Anna asked.
+
+"Some animals are scared of people, Anna. They do not like to be seen. They feel embarrass when we look at them," Dad said.
+
+Anna felt sorry for the octopus. She wanted to be its friend. She swam closer to the rock and said softly, "Octopus, I am sorry if I scared you. I do not want to hurt you. I think you are beautiful and smart. Please come out and play with me."
+
+The octopus heard Anna's voice. It peeked out from behind the rock. It saw Anna's smile and her kind eyes. It felt curious and brave. It stretched out one of its arms and touched Anna's hand.
+
+Anna giggled. She felt the octopus's suckers on her skin. She said, "Thank you, octopus. You are very compassionate. You gave me a chance to be your friend. Do you have a name?"
+
+The octopus nodded. It made a sound with its mouth. It sounded like "Ollie".
+
+"Ollie, I like your name. I am Anna. This is my dad. He is nice too. Do you want to swim with us?" Anna asked.
+
+Ollie nodded again. He liked Anna and her dad. He felt happy and safe. He swam with them and showed them his favorite places in the sea. They had a lot of fun together.

+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were explorers, looking for treasure and animals. They had a big box that they used as a chest. They put some rocks and shells and leaves inside and locked it with a key.
+
+"Let's go find some more treasure!" Tom said. He took the key and put it in his pocket.
+
+"OK!" Lily said. She followed him to the other side of the garden, where there was a big bush. They crawled under the bush and saw something shiny.
+
+"Look, Tom, a necklace!" Lily said. She reached out to grab it, but then she heard a growl.
+
+A big dog came out of the bush. It had black fur and yellow eyes. It looked fierce and angry. It barked and showed its teeth.
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Tom shouted. He and Lily ran back to the box, but the dog chased them. It was faster than them and caught up.
+
+"Help, help!" Lily cried. She tried to open the box, but it was locked.
+
+"Where is the key, Tom?" Lily asked.
+
+Tom felt his pocket. It was empty. He had dropped the key when they saw the necklace.
+
+"Oh no, I lost the key!" Tom said.
+
+The dog was getting closer. It jumped on the box and tried to bite it.
+
+"Go away, bad dog!" Tom yelled. He threw a rock at the dog, but it missed.
+
+They were trapped. They hugged each other and closed their eyes.
+
+But then they heard another voice.
+
+"Rex, Rex, come here, boy!" It was their neighbor, Mr. Jones. He had a leash in his hand. He saw the dog and the children.
+
+"Rex, what are you doing? Leave them alone!" Mr. Jones said. He ran to the dog and pulled him away. He apologized to Tom and Lily.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids, Rex is not a bad dog, he's just playful. He likes shiny things, that's why he took the necklace. He didn't mean to scare you."
+
+He gave them the necklace and the key. He said they could keep them as a gift.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Jones," Tom and Lily said. They were happy and relieved.
+
+They unlocked the box and put the necklace inside. They decided to share the treasure and the key.
+
+They also decided to be friends with Rex. He was not so fierce after all. He just wanted to play.
+Lily and Sam were going to Grandma's house for the weekend. They were very happy, because Grandma had a big garden and a friendly dog. But first, they had to pack their bags.
+
+Lily packed her favorite doll, her pink dress and her book. Sam packed his toy car, his blue shirt and his hat. They also packed some blocks, because they liked to build towers and bridges with them.
+
+Mom helped them zip their bags and put them in the car. She gave them a hug and a kiss and told them to have fun. Dad drove them to Grandma's house, while they sang songs and played games.
+
+When they arrived, Grandma was waiting for them with a big smile and a hug. She showed them their room, where they could sleep and play. She also gave them some cookies and milk, which they ate with delight.
+
+Lily and Sam were eager to play with the blocks, so they dumped them on the floor and started to build. They made a castle, a train and a rocket. They had so much fun, that they didn't notice how late it was.
+
+Grandma came to check on them and saw that they were very tired. She told them it was time to go to bed and read them a story. Lily and Sam snuggled with their toys and listened to Grandma's voice. They fell asleep with a smile, dreaming of their blocks.
+Lily and Max were twins who loved to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car that they could ride in the garden. They took turns to drive the car and to sit in the back.
+
+One day, they were playing with the car when they saw their mom come out of the house with a tray. On the tray, there were two cups of juice and some cookies. Lily and Max were very happy, because they were thirsty and hungry.
+
+"Juice! Juice!" they yelled, and ran to their mom. They each took a cup of juice and a cookie, and thanked their mom. They were about to go back to the car, when they saw something else on the tray.
+
+It was a small, fluffy, white kitten. It had blue eyes and a pink nose. It was adorable. Lily and Max gasped, and dropped their juice and cookies. They ran to the tray again, and reached for the kitten.
+
+"Kitty! Kitty!" they yelled, and tried to pick it up. But the kitten was scared, and scratched their hands. Lily and Max cried, and let go of the kitten. The kitten jumped off the tray, and ran away.
+
+Their mom came to them, and hugged them. She said she was sorry, and that the kitten was a surprise for them. She said she would find the kitten, and bring it back. She said they had to be gentle with the kitten, and not yell at it.
+
+Lily and Max nodded, and said they were sorry too. They said they loved the kitten, and wanted to be its friends. They said they would wait for the kitten, and share their juice and cookies with it. They smiled, and hugged their mom. They hoped the kitten would come back soon.
+Anna and Ben are playing with blocks. They want to build a big tower. Anna has many pink blocks. Ben has many blue blocks. They put their blocks together and make a tall tower.
+
+"Look, our tower is so high!" Anna says. "We are good builders!"
+
+"Yes, we are!" Ben says. "But we need more blocks. Can you help me find some?"
+
+Anna nods and looks around. She sees some yellow blocks under the table. She crawls under the table and grabs some blocks. She gives them to Ben.
+
+"Thank you, Anna!" Ben says. "You are a good helper!"
+
+They add the yellow blocks to their tower. Their tower is higher and higher. They are happy and proud.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is Max, the big dog. He runs into the room and sees the tower. He thinks it is a toy. He jumps and barks and knocks down the tower. The blocks fall and scatter everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Anna and Ben cry. "Our tower is gone!"
+
+Max wags his tail and licks their faces. He thinks they are playing with him. He does not know he ruined their tower.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad and angry. They push Max away. They do not want to play with him.
+
+"Bad dog!" Anna says. "You broke our tower!"
+
+"Go away!" Ben says. "You are not our friend!"
+
+Max looks confused and sad. He does not understand why they are mad at him. He whines and walks away.
+
+Anna and Ben look at their blocks. They are all mixed up and messy. They do not know how to start again.
+
+They hug each other and cry. They feel like they lost their victory. They do not want to play anymore.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and find bugs and worms. They also liked to eat carrots from the carrot patch. They pulled out some carrots and washed them with the hose. They were very crunchy and sweet.
+
+But then they saw something huge and furry in the carrot patch. It had long ears and a twitchy nose. It was a rabbit! The rabbit was eating the carrots too. Lily and Ben were scared. They thought the rabbit would bite them or take all the carrots.
+
+They ran to the house and told their mom. Mom smiled and said, "Don't be scared. The rabbit is not mean. He is just hungry. He likes carrots as much as you do. Why don't you share some carrots with him? Maybe he will be your friend."
+
+Lily and Ben liked that idea. They took some carrots and went back to the garden. They saw the rabbit again. He looked at them with his big eyes. Lily and Ben held out some carrots to him. The rabbit came closer and sniffed them. Then he took a bite and made a happy sound.
+
+Lily and Ben were not scared anymore. They laughed and petted the rabbit. They gave him more carrots and played with him. They named him Fluffy. Fluffy was their new friend. They liked to share carrots with him. They were very happy.
+Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they want to talk to each other and they do not know how. Tom and Lily are deaf. They cannot hear or speak.
+
+One day, their mom brings home a new book. It has pictures of hands and faces. Mom says, "This is a sign book. You can learn to sign with it. Sign means to talk with your hands and face. You can tell each other what you think and feel."
+
+Tom and Lily are eager to learn. They open the book and look at the pictures. They try to copy the signs with their hands and face. They point to the things they see and sign their names. They smile and laugh.
+
+Mom watches them and signs, "I am happy. You are smart and brave. I love you." Tom and Lily sign back, "We love you too, mom." They hug mom and each other. They are happy. They have a new way to talk. They have a sign book.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the dirt. But one of their cars broke. The wheel came off and the car could not move.
+
+"Oh no, my car is broken!" Ben cried. "It is also filthy from the dirt. How can I fix it?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She had an idea. She ran inside the house and came back with a stamp and some glue. "I can help you repair your car," she said. "Look, this stamp has a picture of a wheel. We can glue it on your car and pretend it is a new wheel."
+
+Ben smiled. He liked the stamp. It was blue and shiny. He let Lily glue it on his car. They waited for a while until the glue was dry. Then they tried to move the car. It worked!
+
+"Wow, thank you, Lily!" Ben said. "You are very clever. My car is not filthy anymore. It is beautiful. And it has a special wheel that no other car has."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged. They were happy. They continued to play with their cars in the garden. They had a lot of fun.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new path in the park. It is dark and has many trees.
+
+"Let's go there!" Ben says. He runs to the path.
+
+"No, Ben, wait!" Anna says. She is scared of the dark. She runs after Ben and pulls his hand. "It is too dark. We don't know what is there."
+
+Ben stops and looks at Anna. He sees that she is scared. He is not scared, but he loves his sister.
+
+"Okay, Anna, we don't have to go there. We can play somewhere else." He says. He pulls her hand and leads her to the swings. "Look, the swings are fun. We can go high and low."
+
+Anna smiles and nods. She is happy that Ben is nice to her. She likes the swings. They swing together and laugh. They forget about the dark path. They have fun in the park.
+Ben and Lily were twins who loved to eat pastry. Every morning, their mom would bake them a different kind of pastry, like muffins, croissants, or scones. They would always share their pastry and enjoy it together.
+
+One day, their mom baked them a big apple pie. It smelled so good and looked so yummy. Ben and Lily could not wait to eat it. But their mom said they had to wait until after lunch. She put the pie on the table and told them not to touch it.
+
+Ben and Lily were very hungry and curious. They wanted to taste the pie so badly. They looked at each other and had an idea. They decided to sneak a little piece of the pie when their mom was not looking. They thought their mom would not notice.
+
+They went to the table and used a knife to cut a small slice of the pie. They tried to be very quiet and careful. But they did not know how to cut the pie properly. They made a big mess on the table and the floor. They also burned their fingers on the hot pie. They dropped the knife and the pie slice with a loud clang.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and the pie. She was very angry and disappointed. She asked them what they did and why they did it.
+
+Ben and Lily felt very ashamed and sorry. They told their mom the truth. They said they were hungry and curious and wanted to try the pie. They said they did not mean to make a mess and hurt themselves.
+
+Their mom was still angry, but she also felt sorry for them. She said they should have listened to her and waited until after lunch. She said they should have respected her work and the pie. She said they should have discussed their feelings and thoughts with her instead of doing something sneaky and wrong.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and apologized. They said they learned their lesson and would not do it again. They said they would help their mom clean the mess and make a new pie. They said they would discuss their pastry with their mom and share it with her.
+
+Their mom hugged them and forgave them. She said she loved them and was proud of them for being honest and sorry. She said they could still have some pastry after lunch, but only if they ate their vegetables first. She said they would have a better time if they discussed their pastry with their mom and shared it with her.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not be sneaky and greedy. Listen to your mom and respect her work. Discuss your feelings and thoughts with your mom and share your pastry with her.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. But they also liked to explore. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. They wanted to see them closer.
+
+"Let's go to the pond," Lily said.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Ben said. "Mommy said not to go too near the water."
+
+They walked to the pond and saw some bread on the ground. They picked it up and threw it to the ducks. The ducks came closer and quacked. Lily and Ben laughed.
+
+"Look, there's a colorful fish," Lily said, pointing to the water. She saw a red and blue fish with shiny scales. "I want to touch it."
+
+She leaned over the edge of the pond and reached out her hand. But she did not see the hook that was hidden in the bread. The hook was attached to a fishing line that went to a man on the other side of the pond. He was waiting for a fish to bite.
+
+"Stop, Lily, stop!" Ben shouted. He saw the hook and tried to warn her. "There's a hook in the bread! It will hurt you!"
+
+But it was too late. Lily touched the bread and the hook pricked her finger. She screamed and pulled back her hand. The man saw the line move and pulled it hard. He thought he caught a fish. But he only caught Lily's finger.
+
+"Help, help!" Lily cried. "It hurts, it hurts!"
+
+Ben ran to her and hugged her. He saw blood on her finger. He was scared and angry.
+
+"Let go of her, let go of her!" he yelled at the man. "You hurt my sister!"
+
+The man heard the noise and looked at the pond. He saw Lily and Ben and realized what he had done. He felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" he said. He quickly cut the line and freed Lily's finger. He ran to them and apologized. He gave them a band-aid and some candy. He said he would not fish there anymore.
+
+Lily and Ben were still crying. They wanted their mommy. They ran back to the playground and found her. She saw their tears and their finger. She asked them what happened. They told her everything.
+
+Mommy was shocked and angry. She scolded the man and thanked him for helping. She hugged Lily and Ben and kissed their finger. She said they were brave and good. She said they should always listen to her and be careful.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They learned their lesson. They did not want to go to the pond anymore. They wanted to play with their toys and their friends. They wanted to be happy and safe.
+Tommy liked to play sport with his friends at the park. He liked to run, kick, throw and catch. He was good at sport and he had fun. But one day, his friends did not come to the park. Tommy was lonely and sad. He looked around and saw a big dog. The dog was brown and furry. He had a ball in his mouth.
+
+Tommy wanted to play with the dog. He walked to the dog and said, "Hi, dog. Can I play with you?" The dog wagged his tail and dropped the ball. Tommy picked up the ball and threw it. The dog ran after the ball and brought it back. Tommy and the dog played catch for a long time. They were happy.
+
+But then, a man came to the park. He was the dog's owner. He called the dog and said, "Come on, boy. It's time to go home." The dog heard the man and ran to him. Tommy was sad again. He did not want the dog to leave. He ran to the dog and said, "No, dog. Stay with me. Please." He hugged the dog and did not let go.
+
+The man saw Tommy and said, "Hey, kid. Let go of my dog. He has to go home with me." Tommy shook his head and said, "No, no, no. He is my friend. He wants to play with me." He held the dog tighter. The man said, "Sorry, kid. But he is my dog. I love him and he loves me. You can't keep him. You have to let him go."
+
+Tommy did not listen. He insisted on keeping the dog. He said, "No, no, no. He is my dog. I love him and he loves me. You can't take him. You have to leave him." He held the dog even tighter. The dog was confused and scared. He barked and bit Tommy's hand. Tommy screamed and let go of the dog. The dog ran to the man and the man took him away. Tommy was hurt and sad. He cried and cried. He learned a hard lesson. He could not have everything he wanted. He had to share and be nice. He hoped to see the dog again. He hoped to find new friends. He hoped to play sport again. He hoped to be happy again.
+Lily and Tom were having a picnic with their mom and dad. They had cheese, bread, fruit and juice. Mom and dad had wine, too. Wine was a drink for grown-ups, not for kids.
+
+"Can you pass me the wine, please?" dad asked mom.
+
+"Sure, here you go," mom said, and gave him the bottle.
+
+Lily and Tom watched them drink the wine. They wondered what it tasted like. They were curious.
+
+"Can we try some wine?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, sweetie, wine is not for you. It is too strong and bitter. You have your juice, that is much better," mom said.
+
+"But why do you drink it?" Tom asked.
+
+"Because we like it, and it makes us feel relaxed and happy. But only a little bit. Too much wine can make you feel sick and sleepy," dad said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They did not want to feel sick and sleepy. They wanted to play and have fun. They finished their juice and ran to the lake. They saw some ducks and threw them some bread. The ducks quacked and ate the bread.
+
+Mom and dad watched them and smiled. They felt relaxed and happy, too. But they also felt a bit sleepy. They drank some water and lay down on the blanket. They closed their eyes and took a nap.
+
+Lily and Tom came back from the lake. They saw mom and dad sleeping. They were quiet and did not wake them up. They sat on the blanket and looked at the sky. They saw some clouds and birds. They made up stories about them. They had a nice picnic.
+One day, an elderly lady named Anna was very lonely. She lived in a small house with her cat, but she had no friends to talk to. She wished she could find someone who liked her and shared her hobbies.
+
+She liked to knit, to read, and to drink tea from her favorite cup. Her cup was blue and had flowers on it. She always used it when she made tea, because it made her happy.
+
+One morning, she decided to go for a walk in the park. She put on her coat, her hat, and her scarf, and took her cup with her. She thought maybe she could find a nice bench to sit on and enjoy her tea.
+
+As she was walking, she saw a man sitting on a bench. He was also elderly, and he had a beard and glasses. He was holding a book and a cup. His cup was red and had stars on it.
+
+Anna felt curious and walked towards him. She smiled and said hello.
+
+"Hello," he said. "Do you like to read?"
+
+"Yes, I do," she said. "What are you reading?"
+
+He showed her his book. It was a story about dragons and knights.
+
+"I like stories like that," she said. "They are exciting and fun."
+
+He smiled and said, "Me too. Do you want to sit with me and read together?"
+
+Anna nodded and sat next to him. She noticed that his cup and her cup looked very different, but they both had handles and spouts.
+
+She said, "Our cups are not the same, but they are both cups. They can hold tea and keep it warm."
+
+He said, "That's true. Our cups are different, but they are both useful and beautiful. They can unite us and make us friends."
+
+Anna felt happy and agreed. She said, "Yes, they can. I'm glad I met you. What is your name?"
+
+He said, "My name is Ben. And you?"
+
+She said, "My name is Anna. It's nice to meet you, Ben."
+
+They smiled and shook hands. Then they sipped their tea and read their books. They felt less lonely and more happy. They had found a friend who liked them and shared their hobbies. They had united thanks to their cups.
+Ben was a big boy who liked to play with his toys. He had a red car, a blue ball, and a yellow truck. He also had a small mouse that he found in the garden. He named the mouse Max and gave him some cheese and water. He put Max in a box with some holes and carried him to his room.
+
+Ben wanted to show Max to his mom and dad, but they were busy. Mom was cooking dinner and dad was working on his laptop. Ben decided to wait until they were done. He put Max on his bed and played with his toys. He made noises with his car and truck and bounced his ball.
+
+But Max did not like the box. He wanted to get out and explore. He saw a hole in the box and pushed his nose through it. He saw Ben's bed and the toys. He saw a mysterious thing that looked like a snake. It was long and black and had a shiny end. Max was curious and wanted to touch it.
+
+He squeezed out of the box and ran to the snake. He sniffed it and bit it. It made a loud noise and sparks flew out. Max was scared and hurt. He squeaked and ran back to the box. But it was too late. The snake was dad's charger and it was plugged into the wall. It had electricity and it shocked Max. Max fell down and did not move.
+
+Ben heard the noise and saw the sparks. He saw Max on the floor and ran to him. He picked him up and tried to wake him up. He called for mom and dad. They came and saw what happened. They were sad and angry. They told Ben that he should not have carried the mouse to his room. They told him that the mouse was dead and he could not play with him anymore. They took Max away and threw him in the trash. Ben cried and cried. He wished he had listened to mom and dad. He wished he had left Max in the garden. He wished he had never found the mouse.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls with different hair and clothes. She was very creative. She liked to set her dolls in a row and give them new styles. She used ribbons, clips, hats and scarves to make them look pretty.
+
+One day, she found a big box in the attic. It had many things inside. She saw old books, pictures, toys and clothes. She was very happy. She took the box to her room and opened it. She found a lot of new things to play with.
+
+She took out a dress with flowers, a hat with feathers, a necklace with beads and a pair of shoes with bows. She put them on one of her dolls. She called her Lily. She said, "Lily, you look very nice. You have a new style. You are my flower doll."
+
+She took out a shirt with stripes, a jacket with buttons, a belt with a buckle and a pair of pants with pockets. She put them on another doll. She called him Max. She said, "Max, you look very cool. You have a new style. You are my stripe doll."
+
+She took out a skirt with stars, a sweater with a moon, a scarf with a cloud and a pair of boots with a sun. She put them on another doll. She called her Zoe. She said, "Zoe, you look very bright. You have a new style. You are my star doll."
+
+She set her three dolls on her bed. She looked at them and smiled. She was very proud of her work. She said, "You are my creative dolls. You have different styles. You are very fun to play with." She hugged them and kissed them. She was very happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. One day, they find a big jar under their bed. The jar has many shiny coins inside. They think it is money.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They want to buy more toys with the money. They each take some coins and put them in their pockets. They run to the store with their mom.
+
+At the store, they see many things they like. Lily wants a doll. Ben wants a car. They take the things they want and go to the counter. They give the coins to the lady.
+
+But the lady shakes her head. She says the coins are not money. They are fake. They are only for playing. Lily and Ben are sad. They have to put the things back. They have no money.
+
+They go back home with their mom. They look at the jar. It is empty. They think they were silly. They wish they had not taken the coins. They hug each other and say sorry. They decide to play with their toys they already have. They are happy again.
+Lily and Sam are kids who like to play together. They have a big box of toys in Lily's room. They take out their dolls, cars, balls and books. They make a lot of noise and have fun.
+
+One day, Lily's mom says, "Kids, it is time to go home. Sam has to leave now." Lily and Sam are sad. They do not want to stop playing. They want to stay together.
+
+"Can Sam sleep here?" Lily asks her mom.
+
+"No, sweetie, he has to go to his own bed. Maybe another day," her mom says.
+
+Lily and Sam look at each other. They feel a big hug in their hearts. They walk to the door and say goodbye.
+
+"Bye, Lily. You are my best friend," Sam says.
+
+"Bye, Sam. You are my best friend too," Lily says.
+
+They give each other a big hug. They smile and wave. Sam gets in his mom's car and drives away. Lily goes back to her room. She sees her toys. She feels lonely.

+Lily and Ben like to play soccer in the park. They are on the same team and they wear red shirts. The other team wears blue shirts and they try to get the ball from Lily and Ben.
+
+One day, it starts to rain when they are playing. The rain makes the grass wet and slippery. Lily and Ben have to be careful not to fall. The other team does not like the rain. They say they want to stop playing.
+
+"Can we pause the game?" one of the blue players asks. "We are wet and cold."
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They are wet too, but they are not cold. They like the rain. It makes the game more fun.
+
+"No, we don't want to pause the game," Lily says. "We want to keep playing. We are winning."
+
+The blue player frowns. He does not like Lily's answer. He thinks she is not fair.
+
+"Please, can we pause the game?" he asks again. "We can play again when the rain stops."
+
+Ben shakes his head. He does not want to pause the game either. He wants to score more goals.
+
+"No, we don't want to pause the game," he says. "We want to play in the rain. It is fun."
+
+The blue player sighs. He knows he cannot make Lily and Ben pause the game. He has to play with them or go home.
+
+"Fine, we will play in the rain," he says. "But we will try to beat you."
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They are happy to keep playing. They are not afraid of the blue team. They are good players and they have fun in the rain.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they found a stream in the woods. The stream was clear and cold and made a nice sound.
+
+"Look, Ben, there are fish in the stream!" Lily said. She leaned over the water and pointed at the shiny shapes.
+
+"Wow, they are pretty!" Ben said. He leaned over too and tried to touch one. But the fish was too fast and swam away.
+
+"Be careful, Ben, you might fall in!" Lily warned. She held his hand to help him.
+
+"I want to catch a fish!" Ben said. He looked around and saw a stick. He picked it up and said, "This is my original fishing rod!"
+
+He put the stick in the water and waited. But the fish did not come near the stick. They were smart and knew it was not food.
+
+Lily laughed and said, "Ben, that is not how you fish. You need a hook and a worm."
+
+Ben frowned and said, "But I don't have a hook and a worm. And I don't like worms. They are icky."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "That's okay, Ben. We can just watch the fish and enjoy the stream. Maybe we can find some rocks or shells to take home."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Okay, Lily. You are a good sister. I like the stream too. It is fun and beautiful."
+
+They leaned over the water again and watched the fish. They were happy and curious. They loved the stream and each other.
+Lila and Ben were playing with their toy train on the floor. They liked to make the train go fast and slow, and make noises like "choo-choo" and "beep-beep". They had a lot of fun with their train.
+
+But one day, Lila was not careful and stepped on the rail. The rail broke in two pieces and Lila cried. She hurt her foot and the train could not run anymore. Ben was sad and angry. He said to Lila, "You broke our rail! Now we can't play with our train! You are bad!"
+
+Lila felt sorry and said, "I'm sorry, Ben. I didn't mean to break the rail. I was not looking where I was going. Please don't be mad at me. Can we fix the rail?"
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He loved his sister and he loved his train. He said, "Maybe we can fix the rail. Let's ask Mommy for some tape. And let me see your foot. Does it still hurt?"
+
+Lila nodded and showed Ben her foot. It had a small cut and a bruise. Ben said, "We need to heal your foot. Let's get a band-aid and some ice. Mommy will help us."
+
+They went to Mommy and told her what happened. Mommy was not angry. She said, "Accidents happen sometimes. I'm glad you are sorry and you want to fix the rail. And I'm glad you are taking care of each other. You are good children."
+
+She gave them some tape, a band-aid and some ice. She helped them fix the rail and heal Lila's foot. She said, "There you go. Now you can play with your train again. But be careful and watch where you step. And be kind and share your toys."

+Lila and Ben hugged Mommy and said, "Thank you, Mommy. You are the best. We are grateful for you and our train."

+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toy phone. They pretend to call their friends and family. Sometimes they make funny noises and jokes.
+
+One day, they have a new idea. They want to call a cop. They think it is a fun game. They dial a random number on the toy phone and wait.

+
+"Let's say something silly," Ben says.
+
+"OK," Sam agrees.
+
+They take turns to talk to the cop. They say things like, "I am a monkey. Do you like bananas?" and "I have a big red nose. Can you honk it?"
+
+The cop is confused and annoyed. He does not like prank calls. He tries to find out who is calling him. He asks them their names and where they live.
+
+Ben and Sam do not tell the truth. They make up silly names and places. They say, "I am Bobo. I live in the zoo." and "I am Lulu. I live in the moon."
+
+The cop is angry. He thinks they are foolish. He says, "Stop calling me. This is not a joke. You are wasting my time. I have important work to do. If you call me again, I will find you and punish you."
+
+Ben and Sam are scared. They do not want to get in trouble. They hang up the toy phone and run away. They hide under the bed and hope the cop will not come.
+
+They learn their lesson. They do not call the cop again. They play with their toy phone in a nicer way. They say sorry to the cop in their hearts. They know it is wrong to bother people who are busy and helpful. They are not foolish anymore.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play outside, but today it is very cold. Mom says they have to wear coats and hats and gloves. Anna and Ben do not like coats and hats and gloves. They think they are boring and itchy and hot.
+
+"Mom, we do not want to wear coats and hats and gloves!" Anna says. "We want to wear our shirts and shorts and sandals!"
+
+"Mom, we do not want to go outside!" Ben says. "We want to stay inside and watch TV!"
+
+Mom shakes her head. "No, Anna and Ben, you have to wear coats and hats and gloves. It is too cold for shirts and shorts and sandals. And you have to go outside and get some fresh air. TV is not good for you all day. Come on, let's go to the park. Maybe we can see some birds and squirrels and flowers."
+
+Anna and Ben are not happy. They put on their coats and hats and gloves, but they make faces and grumble. They follow Mom to the park, but they drag their feet and sigh. They do not want to see birds and squirrels and flowers. They think they are boring and quiet and small.
+
+When they get to the park, they see a big slide and a swing and a seesaw. They forget about their coats and hats and gloves. They run to the slide and the swing and the seesaw. They laugh and shout and have fun. They do not think they are boring and itchy and hot anymore.
+
+Mom smiles and watches them. She is glad they are having fun. She sits on a bench and takes off her coat and hat and gloves. She thinks they are boring and itchy and hot too.
+Lily and Ben love to perform. They like to sing and dance and make funny faces. They have a big show today for their mom and dad. They practice a lot in their room. They wear their best clothes and hats.
+
+They go to the living room and say, "Hello, we are Lily and Ben. We have a special show for you. Please clap and cheer for us." Mom and dad sit on the couch and smile. They are very proud of their children.
+
+Lily and Ben perform their songs and dances. They are very good. They make mom and dad laugh and clap. They bow and say, "Thank you, thank you. We hope you liked our show." Mom and dad say, "We loved it. You are very talented. You deserve a treat."
+
+Mom and dad take Lily and Ben to the ice-cream shop. They let them choose their favorite flavors. Lily picks chocolate and Ben picks vanilla. They lick their ice-creams and enjoy them. They are very happy.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Ben drops his ice-cream on the floor. He cries and says, "Oh no, my ice-cream. It's gone. It's not fair." Lily feels sorry for him. She says, "Don't cry, Ben. I have an idea. You can share my ice-cream. It's big and hard. It won't melt so fast. Here, take a bite."
+
+Ben stops crying and smiles. He says, "Thank you, Lily. You are very kind. You are the best sister ever." He takes a bite of her ice-cream. It's sweet and cold. He likes it. Lily and Ben hug and say, "We love ice-cream. We love each other. We love mom and dad. We are very happy." Mom and dad smile and say, "We love you too. You are very sweet. You are the best children ever." They hug and kiss them. They are very happy. The end.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big dog with a red collar. The dog is friendly and wags its tail. Lila and Ben want to pet the dog, but they know they have to ask first.
+
+They run to the dog's owner, who is sitting on a bench. They say, "Hello, can we touch your dog?" The owner smiles and says, "Yes, you can, but be gentle. His name is Rex."
+
+Lila and Ben go back to the dog and reach out their hands. Rex licks their fingers and sniffs their faces. He is soft and warm. Lila and Ben giggle and stroke his fur.
+
+But then, Rex sees a squirrel on a tree. He barks and pulls on his leash. He wants to chase the squirrel. The owner tries to hold him back, but Rex is strong. He drags the owner off the bench and runs to the tree.
+
+Lila and Ben are scared. They think Rex is angry. They run away from the dog and hide behind a slide. They watch Rex jump and bark at the squirrel. The owner follows him and says, "Rex, stop! Come back!"
+
+After a while, Rex gives up. He can't catch the squirrel. He is tired and panting. The owner catches up with him and says, "Bad dog! You have to resist your instincts. You can't run away like that."
+
+He puts Rex back on the leash and walks to the bench. He sees Lila and Ben peeking from behind the slide. He says, "I'm sorry, kids. Rex is a good dog, but he gets too excited sometimes. He didn't mean to scare you."
+
+Lila and Ben come out of their hiding place. They are still alert, but they are curious. They say, "Can we touch your dog again?" The owner says, "Sure, but be careful. He might lick you again."
+
+Lila and Ben go to Rex and touch his head. Rex wags his tail and looks at them with his big brown eyes. He is calm and happy. Lila and Ben smile and say, "We like your dog. He is fun." The owner says, "Thank you. He likes you too. He is sorry for being naughty." They all laugh and play together.
+Lily and Max were playing with their blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and houses and cars with the colorful blocks. Lily had a lot of blocks, but Max only had a few. He wanted more blocks to make his tower taller.
+
+"Can I have some of your blocks, Lily?" Max asked.
+
+"No, these are mine. You have your own blocks," Lily said.
+
+"But you have so many. I only have a little. Please share with me," Max said.
+
+Lily did not want to share. She liked her blocks and did not want to give them away. She warned Max to stay away from her blocks. "Don't touch my blocks, Max. They are mine. If you touch them, I will be mad at you," she said.
+
+Max did not listen to Lily. He waited until she was not looking and took a piece of her block. He added it to his tower and smiled. He thought his tower was very big and nice.
+
+But Lily saw what Max did. She saw the piece of her block on his tower. She was very angry. She ran to Max and pushed his tower down. The blocks fell on the floor and made a loud noise.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair! You broke my tower!" Max cried.
+
+"You took my block! You did not listen to me! You are a bad brother!" Lily yelled.
+
+They both started to cry and scream. Their mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the mess and the tears. She was not happy.
+
+"What is going on here? Why are you fighting?" she asked.
+
+"Lily pushed my tower down! She is mean!" Max said.
+
+"Max took my block! He is naughty!" Lily said.
+
+Mom sighed. She picked up the piece of the block that Max took. She showed it to them. "Look, this is just a piece of a block. It is not worth fighting over. You both have enough blocks to play with. You should share and be nice to each other. You are brother and sister. You should love each other," she said.
+
+She gave the piece of the block back to Lily. She hugged them both. "Now, say sorry to each other and give each other a hug. Then you can play together again. And remember, no more taking or pushing," she said.
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other. They felt sorry for what they did. They said sorry and hugged each other. They smiled and said they loved each other. They decided to play together and share their blocks. They made a new tower together. It was bigger and nicer than before. They also made an adorable house for their teddy bears. They had fun and were happy. Mom was proud of them. She gave them a kiss and a cookie. She told them they were good children. They thanked her and said they loved her too. They all had a good day.
+Tommy liked to dream. He dreamed of big trucks, of flying planes, of being a superhero. He dreamed every night when he went to sleep. But sometimes he had bad dreams. Dreams that made him scared and sad.
+
+One night, he dreamed of his uncle. His uncle was mean and nasty. He always yelled at Tommy and made him do things he did not want to do. He smelled bad and had disgusting teeth. Tommy hated his uncle.
+
+In his dream, his uncle came to his room. He grabbed Tommy and dragged him to the basement. He locked the door and turned off the light. He laughed and said, "Now you are mine, Tommy. No one can hear you scream."
+
+Tommy was terrified. He tried to scream, but no sound came out. He tried to run, but his uncle was too strong. He felt his uncle's breath on his neck and his teeth on his ear.
+
+But then, something happened. Tommy heard a loud noise. He saw a bright light. He felt a warm hand on his shoulder. He opened his eyes and saw his mom. She had heard his scream and came to save him. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Tommy. It was just a dream. Your uncle is not here. He can't hurt you anymore."
+
+Tommy was relieved. He cried and hugged his mom back. He said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. You are my hero."
+
+His mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Tommy. You are my brave boy. Now, let's go back to bed and have a good dream. A dream of big trucks, of flying planes, of being a superhero."
+
+Tommy nodded and followed his mom. He felt safe and happy. He did not dream of his uncle anymore. He dreamed of good things. He dreamed of his mom.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. It was a pretty day. The sun was shining and the leaves were red and yellow. They liked this season. They called it fall.
+
+They saw a big slide. They wanted to go on it. They ran to the slide and took turns. Lily went first. She slid down fast and laughed. Max went next. He slid down slower and smiled.
+
+Then they saw a boy. He was bigger than them. He had a mean face. He came to the slide and said, "This is my slide. Go away."
+
+Lily and Max were scared. They did not want to fight. They said, "No, this is a park slide. Everyone can use it."
+
+The boy did not listen. He pushed them away. He said, "I don't care. I'm the boss. You have to do what I say."
+
+Lily and Max were angry. They did not like the boy. They said, "You are not the boss. You are rude. You have to share."
+
+The boy did not care. He climbed on the slide and said, "Shut up. I'm going to slide now."
+
+But he did not see a big rock. It was on the slide. He slid on the rock and hurt his bottom. He cried out loud. He said, "Ow, ow, ow. That hurts."
+
+Lily and Max saw the boy. They felt sorry for him. They said, "Are you okay? Do you need help?"
+
+The boy was ashamed. He said, "No, I'm fine. I'm sorry. I was mean to you. Can we be friends?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They said, "Yes, we can be friends. But you have to be nice and share."
+
+The boy agreed. He said, "Okay, I will. Can we play together?"
+
+Lily and Max smiled. They said, "Yes, we can. Let's go on the slide again. But watch out for the rock."
+
+They all went on the slide. They had fun. They learned to be kind and fair. They liked this season. They called it fall.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their cart. They liked to fill the cart with leaves, rocks, and sticks and pretend they were going on a trip. They saw a big puddle near the swings and decided to splash in it.
+
+"Look, Lily, the water is so high!" Tom said, pointing to the puddle.
+
+"Let's go in, Tom, it will be fun!" Lily said, pulling the cart behind her.
+
+They ran into the puddle and laughed as the water splashed on their legs and shoes. They pushed the cart back and forth and made waves. The cart got very wet and dirty.
+
+"Oh no, Tom, the cart is soaked!" Lily said, looking at the cart.
+
+"So what, Lily, it's just water. It will dry soon." Tom said, shrugging.
+
+"But what if Mom gets mad? She said we have to keep the cart clean." Lily said, worried.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily, we can clean the cart later. Come on, let's play some more!" Tom said, smiling.
+
+They continued to play in the puddle until they heard Mom calling them.
+
+"Tom, Lily, time to go home!" Mom said, waving from the bench.
+
+They ran out of the puddle and dragged the cart to Mom.
+
+"Did you have fun, kids?" Mom asked, looking at their wet clothes and shoes.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we had so much fun!" Tom and Lily said, nodding.
+
+Mom looked at the cart and saw that it was soaked and muddy.
+
+"Oh, dear, what happened to the cart?" Mom asked, frowning.
+
+"We played in the puddle, Mom, and the cart got soaked." Lily said, lowering her head.
+
+"We're sorry, Mom, we didn't mean to make the cart dirty." Tom said, apologizing.
+
+Mom sighed and smiled.
+
+"It's okay, kids, I'm glad you had fun. But next time, please be more careful with the cart. It's not good to soak it in water. It might get rusty or broken." Mom said, explaining.
+
+"Okay, Mom, we understand. We'll be more careful next time." Tom and Lily said, promising.
+
+Mom hugged them and helped them put the cart in the car.
+
+"Let's go home and get you dry and clean. And don't forget to clean the cart, too." Mom said, driving away.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and smiled. They had a fun day in the park with their cart.
+Tim and Mia are playing catch in the park. They have a big, red ball that they throw to each other. They laugh and run and have fun.
+
+"Throw it to me, Tim!" Mia shouts.
+
+"OK, Mia, here it comes!" Tim says. He throws the ball high in the air.
+
+Mia tries to catch the ball, but it is too far. She runs after it, but it bounces away. She sees the ball rolling towards a distant tree.
+
+"Tim, help me!" Mia calls. "The ball is going to the tree!"
+
+Tim runs after Mia and the ball. He sees the tree and a man sitting under it. The man has a book and a hat. He does not see the ball.
+
+"Excuse me, sir!" Tim says. "Can we have our ball back?"
+
+The man looks up and sees Tim and Mia. He smiles and picks up the ball.
+
+"Sure, kids, here you go," he says. He gives the ball to Tim.
+
+"Thank you, sir!" Tim and Mia say.
+
+"You're welcome," the man says. "Have a nice day."
+
+Tim and Mia wave to the man and run back to their spot. They resume their game of catch.
+
+"That was a close one," Tim says.
+
+"Yes, it was," Mia says. "But we got our ball back in a minute."
+
+They throw the ball to each other and laugh and run and have fun.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play outside in winter. They wear warm hats, coats, boots and gloves. They see a big lake. The lake is frozen. It has ice on top.
+
+"Let's go on the ice!" Ben says. He runs to the lake. He wants to slide on the ice.
+
+"Wait, Ben!" Lily says. She is scared. She thinks the ice is not safe. She follows Ben slowly.
+
+Ben reaches the lake. He steps on the ice. He slides a little. He laughs. He thinks it is fun. He tries to slide more. He stumbles. He falls on the ice. He hurts his knee. He cries.
+
+Lily hears Ben cry. She runs to him. She sees his knee. It is red and wet. She feels sorry for him. She hugs him.
+
+"Are you okay, Ben?" Lily asks.
+
+"It hurts, Lily. It hurts a lot." Ben says.
+
+"Let's go home, Ben. Mom can help you. She can put a bandage on your knee. She can give you a hug and a kiss. She can make you healthy again." Lily says.
+
+"Okay, Lily. Let's go home." Ben says. He stands up. He limps. Lily holds his hand. They walk home. They leave the ice behind. They are not happy. They are sad. They learned a lesson. The ice is not a good place to play.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys. But sometimes they want the same toy. Then they fight.
+
+One day, they see a big box in the living room. It has a handle on it. They run to the box and pull the handle. The box opens and they see a lot of new toys inside. They are very happy.
+
+But then they see a big teddy bear. It is brown and soft and has a red bow. They both want the teddy bear. They grab it and pull it. They do not want to share.
+
+The teddy bear is not happy. It feels the twins tearing its arms and legs. It makes a sad noise. It does not like to be hurt.
+
+The twins hear the noise and stop pulling. They look at the teddy bear. It has a tear in its fur. They feel sorry for the teddy bear. They hug it and say sorry.
+
+They decide to share the teddy bear. They take turns holding it and playing with it. They are playful and kind. The teddy bear is happy. It smiles and makes a happy noise. It likes to be loved.
+Ben and Mia like to play in the park. They see a big statue of a man on a horse. The statue is gray and dry. Ben wants to touch the statue, but Mia says no.
+
+"No, Ben, do not touch. The statue is old and hard. You can hurt yourself," Mia says.
+
+"But I want to see the man and the horse. They look nice," Ben says.
+
+Ben does not listen to Mia. He runs to the statue and climbs on it. He feels the man's face and the horse's tail. He sees a shiny thing on the man's hand. It is a sword. Ben likes the sword. He wants to cut something with it.
+
+He looks around and sees a flower. The flower is red and pretty. Ben reaches for the flower with the sword. He tries to cut it, but he cannot. The sword is too heavy and the flower is too far. He loses his balance and falls from the statue. He lands on the ground and cries.
+
+Mia hears Ben cry and runs to him. She sees that he is hurt. He has a cut on his arm and a bump on his head. She feels sorry for him. She hugs him and says,
+
+"Ben, are you okay? I told you not to touch the statue. The statue is not for playing. It is for looking. You are silly and naughty. Now you have a cut and a bump. We have to go home and tell mom."
+
+Ben is sad and sorry. He says,
+
+"I am sorry, Mia. I was curious and foolish. I wanted to cut the flower with the sword. But the sword was too big and the flower was too small. I fell and hurt myself. I do not like the statue anymore. It is mean and bad. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Mia nods and smiles. She says,
+
+"Of course I forgive you, Ben. You are my brother and I love you. But you have to be careful and listen to me next time. I know more things than you. I am older and smarter. Come on, let's go home and get some bandages and ice. Mom will make you feel better."
+
+Ben and Mia hold hands and walk home. They leave the statue behind. The statue is still gray and dry. It does not care about Ben and Mia. It does not care about anything. It is just a statue.
+Ben and Lily liked to play on the swings in the park. They took turns to push each other and go high in the air. They felt happy and free when they swung. One day, they saw a big swing that had two seats and a long rope. They wanted to try it.
+
+They ran to the big swing and climbed on the seats. Ben said, "I will push us with my feet and we will go very high." Lily said, "OK, but be careful. This swing is not like the other swings." Ben said, "Don't worry, it will be easy and fun." He pushed with his feet and the swing started to move.
+
+The swing went faster and faster. Ben and Lily felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They laughed and shouted with joy. They did not see the big tree that was in front of them. The swing was going too fast and too high. It hit the tree with a loud bang.
+
+Ben and Lily flew off the seats and fell to the ground. They felt a lot of pain in their bodies. They cried and screamed for help. The rope of the swing broke and the seats fell on them. They felt the weight of the seats on their chests. They could not breathe. They felt very scared and sad.
+
+The park keeper heard the noise and ran to the swing. He saw Ben and Lily under the seats. He lifted the seats and called an ambulance. He tried to help them, but it was too late. Ben and Lily were gone. The park keeper felt very sorry and angry. He said, "Why did they play on the big swing? It was not for children. It was dangerous. They should have listened to Lily. She tried to remind Ben to be careful. But he did not listen. He thought it was easy and fun. But it was not. It was a bad choice. And now they are gone." He cried and prayed for them. He wished he could bring them back. But he could not.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to draw with crayons. They have many crayons of different colors. Some crayons are old and broken. Some crayons are new and shiny.
+
+One day, their mom brings home a big box of crayons. She says they are expensive crayons. They are very smooth and bright. They make beautiful pictures. She gives the box to Anna and Ben and says they can share.
+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They open the box and see all the crayons. They want to try them all. They take out some paper and start to draw.
+
+Anna draws a flower. She uses a red crayon for the petals and a green crayon for the stem. She feels proud of her flower. She shows it to Ben.
+
+Ben draws a car. He uses a blue crayon for the body and a yellow crayon for the wheels. He feels happy with his car. He shows it to Anna.
+
+They both like each other's drawings. They say, "Wow, you are good at drawing!" They smile and hug. They feel love for each other.
+
+They decide to draw more pictures with the expensive crayons. They have fun and make a lot of art. They thank their mom for the gift. They feel grateful for the crayons.
+Lila and Sam are in the garden with Mom. They like to help Mom pick the red tomatoes. Mom says tomatoes are good to eat and make yummy sauce.
+
+"Look, Mom, I found a big one!" Lila says, holding a tomato in her hand. She feels the tomato. It is smooth and round and heavy.
+
+"Good job, Lila!" Mom says. "Can you put it in the basket?"
+
+Lila nods and walks to the basket. She sees Sam sitting on the ground. He is holding a tomato too, but he is not happy. He feels the tomato. It is soft and squishy and wet.
+
+"Sam, what's wrong?" Lila asks.
+
+"This tomato is bad!" Sam says. "It has a hole and it is leaking juice. It smells funny too."
+
+Lila looks at the tomato. She sees a hole and some juice. She smells the tomato. It smells sour and icky.
+
+"Yuck!" Lila says. "That tomato is rotten. You should throw it away."
+
+Sam nods and gets up. He throws the tomato in the trash. He wipes his hands on his shirt.
+
+"Let's find another tomato, Sam," Lila says. "A good one, like mine."
+
+"Okay, Lila," Sam says. "Maybe we can find a bigger one."
+
+They run to the tomato plants. They look for big and red and good tomatoes. They hear Mom calling them.
+
+"Come on, kids, it's time to go inside," Mom says. "We have enough tomatoes for today. Let's wash them and make some sauce."
+
+Lila and Sam are happy. They love tomato sauce. They follow Mom to the house. They hear a loud noise. It is Dad coming home from work. He honks the horn.
+
+"Dad is home!" Lila and Sam shout. They drop their tomatoes and run to hug Dad.
+
+"Hello, my little helpers," Dad says. "Did you have fun in the garden?"
+
+"Yes, Dad, we did," Lila and Sam say. "We picked tomatoes. But one was bad. It was rotten and smelly."
+
+"Really?" Dad says. "That's too bad. But I'm sure the rest are delicious. Can I have one?"
+
+"Sure, Dad," Lila and Sam say. They give Dad a tomato. He feels the tomato. It is smooth and round and heavy. He bites the tomato. It is juicy and sweet and fresh.
+
+"Mmm, this is a good tomato," Dad says. "Thank you, kids. You are the best."
+
+Lila and Sam smile. They feel happy and proud. They love their Mom and Dad. They love their garden. They love their tomatoes.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big tub of water and some toys. They liked to make boats and ducks and splash each other. Tom had a red boat that he made from a plastic bottle. Lily had a yellow duck that she got from her grandma.
+
+One day, Lily saw Tom's boat and wanted to play with it. She asked Tom if she could have a turn. Tom said no, he liked his boat too much. Lily felt jealous. She wanted a boat like Tom's. She thought it was not fair that Tom had a boat and she only had a duck.
+
+Lily waited until Tom was not looking. Then she grabbed his boat and ran away. Tom saw her and shouted. He chased her around the garden. Lily ran faster and faster. She did not want to give back the boat. She thought it was hers now.
+
+But Lily did not see the drain. It was a big hole in the ground where the water went away. Lily stepped on it and slipped. She fell down and dropped the boat. The boat went into the drain and disappeared. Lily cried. She hurt her knee and lost the boat.
+
+Tom came and saw what happened. He felt sorry for Lily. He helped her up and gave her a hug. He said he was sorry for being mean. He said they could share his boat next time. He said he liked her duck too. Lily said she was sorry for taking his boat. She said she liked his boat too. They hugged and made up. They went back to the tub and played with the duck. They forgot about the boat and the drain. They were happy again.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to go on the equipment, like the slide and the swings. They also liked to make up their own games with sticks and stones and leaves.
+
+One day, they saw a new equipment in the park. It was a big, round, red thing with holes and ropes. They did not know what it was, but it looked fun.
+
+"Let's try it!" Lila said.
+
+"OK!" Tom said.
+
+They ran to the new equipment and climbed on it. They crawled through the holes and swung on the ropes. They laughed and shouted.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" a voice said.
+
+They looked down and saw a boy standing by the new equipment. He had a helmet and a backpack and a badge. He looked angry.
+
+"Who are you?" Lila asked.
+
+"I'm Ben. I'm a space explorer. This is my original spaceship. I made it myself. You can't play with it. Go away!" Ben said.
+
+"But we like it. It's fun. Can we play with it too?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, you can't. It's mine. Go find your own equipment. Mind your own business!" Ben said.
+
+Lila and Tom felt sad. They did not want to fight with Ben. They wanted to be friends. They liked his spaceship. It was original and cool.
+
+"Please, Ben. Can we play with you? We can pretend to be space explorers too. We can share your spaceship. We can have fun together. Please?" Lila said.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He liked his spaceship. He was proud of it. He did not want to share it. But he also felt lonely. He did not have any friends in the park. He wanted to have fun too.
+
+"OK, fine. You can play with me. But you have to follow my rules. I'm the captain. You're the crew. Do you understand?" Ben said.
+
+Lila and Tom nodded. They were happy. They did not mind Ben's rules. They wanted to play with him. They wanted to see his spaceship.
+
+"OK, then. Come on. Let's go to space. There's a lot to explore. Are you ready?" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, we are!" Lila and Tom said.
+
+They climbed on the spaceship and put on their helmets. They fastened their belts and grabbed their ropes. They smiled and waved.
+
+"Ready, set, blast off!" Ben said.
+
+The spaceship spun and bounced and flew. Lila and Tom and Ben laughed and shouted. They had a lot of fun. They were space explorers. They were friends.
+Anna was very happy. Today was her birthday. She had a bright dress with flowers. She had a big cake with candles. She had many friends to play with.
+
+"Happy birthday, Anna!" her friends said. They gave her gifts and hugs. Anna smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you!"
+
+Anna opened her gifts. She saw a doll, a book, a ball, and a hat. She liked them all. But she liked one gift more than the others. It was from her best friend, Ben.
+
+Ben gave her a picture. He drew it himself. It was a picture of Anna and Ben holding hands. They were under a big tree. There were birds and flowers and sun.
+
+Anna looked at the picture. She felt warm and happy. She understood that Ben was very kind. He was her best friend.
+

+Tom and Lily were playing in the forest. They liked to find sticks and stones and make things with them. Tom found a big stick that looked like an axe. He pretended to chop trees with it.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have an axe!" he said. "I can cut anything with it!"
+
+Lily was not impressed. She saw a shiny thing on the ground. It was a real axe that someone had left behind. She picked it up and felt how heavy it was.
+
+"Tom, this is an axe!" she said. "It is much better than your stick. It is sharp and strong!"
+
+Tom was curious. He wanted to see the real axe. He ran to Lily and tried to take it from her.
+
+"Give it to me, Lily!" he said. "I want to play with it!"
+
+Lily did not want to share. She held the axe tightly and pulled it away from Tom.
+
+"No, Tom, it is mine!" she said. "I found it first!"
+
+They started to fight over the axe. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see the old man who was walking in the forest. He was the owner of the axe. He had left it there by mistake. He heard the noise and came to see what was going on.
+
+"Hey, hey, what are you doing?" he said. "That is my axe! You should not play with it. It is dangerous. You could hurt yourself or someone else!"
+
+Tom and Lily stopped fighting. They looked at the old man. He had a long beard and a kind face. He looked wise.
+
+"Sorry, sir," they said. "We did not know it was your axe. We just wanted to have fun."
+
+The old man smiled. He took the axe from Lily and put it in his bag.
+
+"It is alright, children," he said. "I know you did not mean any harm. But you should be careful with things you find in the forest. They may belong to someone else or they may be harmful. Next time, ask before you take something. And always return what you borrow."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They felt sorry for being naughty. They thanked the old man and said goodbye. They decided to play with their sticks and stones again. They learned a lesson that day. They learned to respect other people's things and to be wise.
+One day, a cute bunny named Lila wanted to play with her friends in the forest. She asked her mom if she could go, and her mom said yes, but she had to be back before the sun went down.
+
+"Okay, mom, I will," Lila said, and hopped away happily.
+
+She met her friends, a squirrel, a bird, and a mouse, and they had a lot of fun. They climbed trees, sang songs, and found nuts and berries. Lila forgot about the time, and did not see the sun getting lower in the sky.
+
+"Come on, Lila, we have to go home now," the squirrel said. "It will be dark soon, and there are scary things in the forest at night."
+
+"No, I want to play more," Lila said. "Just a little more, please."
+
+She did not listen to her friends, and they had to leave her alone. They said goodbye, and hoped she would be safe.
+
+Lila kept playing, but soon she realized it was very dark. She could not see her friends, or the way back home. She heard strange noises, and felt afraid. She wished she had listened to her mom and her friends.
+
+She started to cry, and called for help. She hoped someone would hear her.
+
+Luckily, her mom heard her. She had been worried when Lila did not come back, and went to look for her. She followed her voice, and found her in the forest.
+
+"Lila, my baby, I'm so glad I found you," her mom said, and hugged her tightly. "You scared me so much. Why did you not come back when I told you?"
+
+"I'm sorry, mom, I was having fun, and I did not watch the sun," Lila said, and sobbed. "I was very silly, and I learned my lesson. I will never leave you again, or stay out too late."
+
+Her mom kissed her, and carried her home. She tucked her in bed, and sang her a lullaby. Lila felt warm and safe, and fell asleep.
+
+She had a bad wake, but a good end. She knew she had to listen to her mom and her friends, and be careful in the forest. She was a cute bunny, but also a smart one.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars, big and small, red and blue, fast and slow. They make a long road with blocks and tape. They say, "Vroom, vroom, let's race!"
+
+They pick their cars and put them on the road. Tom has a big red car. Jen has a small blue car. They count, "One, two, three, go!" They push their cars and watch them roll. They cheer, "Go, go, go!"
+
+But then, something bad happens. Tom's car rolls too fast and hits Jen's car. Jen's car flies off the road and crashes into the wall. Jen's car breaks into pieces. It is a big wreck. Jen cries, "Oh no, my car! You broke my car!"
+
+Tom says, "I'm sorry, Jen. It was an accident. I didn't mean to break your car." But Jen is very angry and sad. She says, "You are a bad friend. You ruined my game. Go away!" She picks up her car pieces and runs to her room.
+
+Tom feels sad too. He says, "Jen, wait. Don't go. We can fix your car. We can play again." But Jen doesn't listen. She slams the door and locks it. Tom knocks on the door and says, "Jen, please. I'm sorry. Can we talk?" But Jen doesn't answer. She stays in her room and cries. Tom stays outside and cries too. They are not friends anymore. The end.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to joke with each other. They lived on a farm with many animals, but their favorite was the cow. The cow was big and brown and gave them milk every day.
+
+One day, Lily and Tom decided to play a joke on the cow. They found some mud and smeared it all over the cow's back. They thought it was very funny and laughed a lot. The cow did not like it and mooed loudly.
+
+"Who did this to me?" the cow asked. "I am filthy and itchy. I need a bath."
+
+Lily and Tom hid behind a tree and giggled. They wanted to see the cow's face when she saw herself in the pond.
+
+But the cow was smarter than they thought. She saw them hiding and walked towards them. She shook her head and flung mud at them. Lily and Tom got splashed with mud and screamed.
+
+"Now you are filthy too," the cow said. "How do you like it?"
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry for the cow and apologized. They helped her wash off the mud and gave her some hay. They learned their lesson and never joked with the cow again. The cow forgave them and they all became friends.
+Sara liked to play with her mom's perfume. She liked how it smelled and how it made her feel pretty. Sometimes, she would sneak into her mom's room and spray some on her dress and hair. She knew her mom did not like that, but she could not help it.
+
+One day, Sara saw a new bottle of perfume on her mom's dresser. It was pink and shiny and had a big bow on it. Sara thought it was a gift for her. She was very happy and ran to grab it. She did not see the card that said "Happy anniversary, love Tom".
+
+She opened the bottle and sprayed some on her neck. It smelled very strong and made her cough. She did not like it at all. She wanted to wash it off, but she heard her mom coming. She quickly put the bottle back and hid under the bed.
+
+Her mom came in and saw the bottle. She smiled and picked it up. She read the card and her smile turned into a frown. She smelled the perfume and her frown turned into a gasp. She looked around and saw Sara's dress on the floor. It had perfume stains on it.
+
+She lifted the bed skirt and saw Sara hiding. She was very angry and said, "Sara, what did you do? This perfume was not for you. It was for me. It was a special gift from your dad. He is very dependable and always remembers our anniversary. He knows I love this perfume. It is very expensive and hard to find. You wasted it and ruined it. How could you be so naughty?"
+
+Sara felt very bad and started to cry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I did not know. I thought it was for me. I wanted to be pretty like you. I did not mean to make you mad. Please don't be mad at me. I love you."
+
+Her mom sighed and said, "I love you too, Sara. But you have to learn to respect other people's things. You can't just take what you want without asking. You have to be more careful and responsible. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I'm sorry. Can I hug you?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Of course, you can. Come here." She hugged Sara and kissed her cheek. She said, "Now, let's go wash off that perfume. It smells awful. Next time, you can ask me if you want to try some of mine. I have some that are more suitable for you. OK?"
